I recently went on a hike up in the Placita's to see the famed Sandia Man Cave. If you are not familiar with this then let me tell ya. Some dude, a student from UNM, back in the 30's found it, said there were some old bones of a Wooly Mammoth, a Giant Sloth and some ancient tools left there by some folk traveling through about 10,000 years ago.

The Big 12 did something this year that no conference had ever done. Ninety percent of the conference's teams reached bowl eligibility.
Those nine bowl eligible teams will play their games over the next week. The first of those games will be Thursday night, when Baylor (7-5) heads to the Bridgepoint Education Holiday to take on No.17 UCLA (9-4).
The Bruins nearly earned a trip to the Rose Bowl, but they lost by three in the Pac-12 Championship Game and ended up in San Diego. The offense is led by Johnathan Franklin, who ran for 1,700 yards on the season and broke the school's record for career all-purpose yards. Brett Hundley threw for 3,411 yards on the year, too, so UCLA will provide a challenge for the Baylor defense.
Baylor certainly had issues on that side of the ball during the regular season. This team was one of the hottest in the Big 12 at the end of the year, though. The Bears won four of their last five games, including the upset of then-top-ranked Kansas State. The team boasts one of the best offenses in the country, so this game should provide plenty of points.
The next game will be between Texas Tech (7-5) and Minnesota (6-6) in the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas on Friday night. Both teams missed the postseason last season, and this is Minnesota's first bowl game since the 2009 Insight Bowl.
The Golden Gophers played poorly down the stretch, losing six of their final eight games. The only two wins in that span came against Illinois and Purdue- teams with a combined 8-16 record.
Minnesota's defense is going to have to find a way to slow down the potent Texas Tech offense, because the Golden Gophers aren't going to win a shootout. The Red Raiders are second in the country in passing yards per game and score 37 points per game. On the other hand, Minnesota is 99th in the country in scoring. Texas Tech has struggled on defense, but should have better success against Minnesota.
Saturday will feature three Big 12 bowl games. The first of those will be the New Era Pinstripe Bowl between West Virginia (7-5) and Syracuse (7-5). These two were obviously conference rivals just a year ago. The Orange has won two consecutive games against the Mountaineers, including a 49-23 blowout last year.
Both of these teams have pretty powerful offenses. Syracuse is led by Ryan Nassib, who throws for more than 300 yards per game. He had 229 yards and four touchdowns in last year's game. Syracuse won five of its last six games to get a share of the Big East Championship.
West Virginia comes into this game on less of a high note. The Mountaineers lost five in a row before winning their last two games against Iowa State and Kansas. The team has been led by a great offense, but the defense has really struggled for most of the year. Geno Smith reached the 4,000-yard plateau for the second consecutive season and threw for 40 touchdowns. Once again, this one should be high-scoring.
No. 23 Texas (8-4) and No.13 Oregon State (9-3) will then meet in San Antonio for the Valero Alamo Bowl.
The Beavers were one of the biggest surprises of the college football season. Coming off a 3-9 season, they won their first six games and spent some time in the top ten. Sean Mannion was the team's starting quarterback for most of the year, but Cody Vaz was recently named the starter for the bowl game. Each quarterback has missed time with injury, but head coach Mike Riley had to make a decision between two healthy quarterbacks for this one.
Texas has also split playing time among two quarterbacks, but it will be David Ash starting on Saturday. The Longhorns are coming off consecutive losses, so they'll be looking to end on a high note in this game.
The last game on Saturday will be the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl, which will feature TCU (7-5) and Michigan State (6-6).
The Horned Frogs ended the season playing four consecutive ranked teams, but they were able to come away with wins in two of those in order to earn an invite to Tucson. They haven't been as explosive on offense as some other teams in the conference, but the defense was one of the best in the Big 12.
That defense will have to deal with Le'Veon Bell, one of the few bright spots on the Michigan State team this season. Bell rushed for 1,648 yards and eleven touchdowns on the season. He'll be going up against the best rush defense in the Big 12 in TCU.
The next bowl game will be a rematch, as Iowa State (6-6) and Tulsa (10-3) will meet up on Monday in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. These two teams met in the season's opening week, and Iowa State came away with a 38-23 win. Tulsa had a great season after that and eventually beat UCF to win the C-USA Championship.
Tulsa boasts a very good running game, but Iowa State yielded just 160 yards in the teams' previous meeting. The Cyclones lost five of their final seven games, so they aren't necessarily playing their best football coming into this game.
The next day, Oklahoma State (7-5) will face Purdue (6-6) in the Heart of Dallas Bowl. The Boilermakers were able to make a bowl game despite a five-game losing streak in the middle of the season. It took three consecutive wins at the end of the season to get a sixth win.
Oklahoma State's offense, like so many others in the conference, was among the best in the country this season. The team is fourth in the country with 44 points per game. The defense should have an easier time going up against Purdue rather than some of the high-powered Big 12 offenses.
Late in the season, there was still a chance that the Cowboys could sneak their way into a share of the Big 12 Championship, so it will be interesting to see if they act disappointed to be playing in this game. This should still be a good matchup for them, though.
The way the bowl schedule is set up, the Fiesta Bowl will not actually be the last Big 12 game. That honor goes to the AT&T Cotton Bowl, which should be a very interesting game. No.11 Oklahoma (10-2) will take on former division rival, No.9 Texas A&M (10-2), on January 4th.
After this game, the Sooners will have played all three Heisman finalists. How well they contain Heisman-winner Johnny Manziel will decide who comes away with the win. Manziel is the team's leading passer and rusher, and is the first freshman to ever win the Heisman. If he has a big day, it could be tough for Oklahoma to keep up.
That being said, the Sooners have a pretty good offense themselves. Landry Jones returned for another season in order to lead Oklahoma to a National Championship, and while that didn't happen, he did have a pretty good season, leading the nation's fifth-best passing attack.
Oklahoma was a favorite to earn an at-large bid to a BCS bowl until Northern Illinois climbed into the top 16 and took that final spot.
Because of that, No.5 Kansas State (11-1) will be the conference's only representative in one of those bowls, playing NO.4 Oregon (11-1) in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl on January 3rd.
The Wildcats seemed to be on their way to a berth in the National Championship Game, but a terrible game against Baylor ended that dream. Now, they'll be rewarded by playing an Oregon team that some thought was the best in the country this year.
Kansas State has one of the best playmakers in the country in Collin Klein. The quarterback was two yards shy of being the team's rushing leader on the season and went to New York as one of the Heisman finalists.
However, Oregon's offense has plenty of playmakers, too, and might have the most exciting offense in college football. Fortunately for Kansas State, this team has had experience facing good offenses, but Oregon's might be the toughest yet. It will be a lot to ask of the defense to slow the Ducks down enough to take pressure off of the offense. If they can do that, though, Kansas State has a good chance of winning this game.
A BCS win over a team like Oregon would be a great way to end what has been a great season for the Big 12. The conference has provided some very exciting football this year.
And with so many teams earning their way into the postseason, there will be plenty of Big 12 games to watch during bowl season, beginning with Thursday night.

Do I have a cold or the flu?

Originally Published: March 4, 2005 - Last Updated / Reviewed On: November 27, 2009

I've been wicked sick all week with a really bad runny nose, face pain, cough and now my right ear is hurting. I can't think!! And I am trying to study for exams!!!
My mom told me I have the flu and should go to a doctor to get medicine to treat it. But I think it's just a wicked bad cold. Can you tell me the difference?
Faucet Nose
Sorry you are feeling so awful.
People often wonder if they've got the "common cold," something more serious like influenza ("the flu"), or even pneumonia.
|Usually comes on kind of gradually, over days or even a week
|Hits you like a truck; you wake up one morning and you feel awful while yesterday, you were fine
|In adolescents and adults, a cold usually doesn't cause any fever or, if it does, it's low-grade (100 - 101°F).
|The flu almost always causes high fever (102 - 104°F) that lasts for 3 - 4 days.
|Both a cold and the flu can cause a cough — it's usually pretty mild and not associated with difficulty breathing.
|Other Symptoms
|A cold usually affects just the upper respiratory system: your nose, throat, sinuses, and ears.
|The flu gets your whole body involved: you feel really achy and weak, you're nauseated, and sometimes you vomit.
If you find you are having trouble breathing, or feel short of breath with normal activity, whether with a cold or the flu, it's time to promptly contact your health care provider.
The flu can be treated with some antiviral medications; a cold can not. Antibiotics don't help with either. If your flu symptoms are less than 48 hours old, if you contact your health care provider, s/he may be able to perform a quick, easy test to diagnose the flu. If you have it, you possibly can get started on treatment. Columbia students can call x4-2284 or log on to Open Communicator to schedule an appointment.
Because there are many different strains of the flu, it's often helpful to know if there is a version going around. One of the best resources is the CDC flu page. Be sure to look under the "What's New" section. Additionally, you can keep tabs on campus concerns around flu by visiting the Columbia preparedness website.
Of course, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Here are a few tips to help reduce your flu risk:
- Wash your hands frequently
- Keep your hands away from your face (especially your nose and mouth)
- Get a seasonal flu shot
- Cover your mouth/nose when sneezing and coughing (tissue or sleeve, not your hands)
- Using antibacterial wipes on public equipment like computer keyboards and phones
- Open rest room doors with a paper towel to keep your hands clean
- Stay home if you are not feeling well
Feel better soon!

Is gender natural or cultural?
For a long time now I have always heard that gender is nothing more than a social construct. I was told that if we taught women to be aggressive and taught men to be more emotional we would have a society nearly the exact opposite of what we have now. But is this really the case? The genders are not the same, we have different reproductive organs, different muscle densities, different brain chemistry and even different brain structure. None of these can be social and all would affect behavior. Furthermore in the 3 social apes and most social monkeys there are clear gender roles so why not humans?

edward long 100+Jun 1 2013: Q: What is the difference between "SEX" and "GENDER"? A: Sex is biological and is manifested physiologically as either male or female. Gender is sociological and is manifested behaviorially as either masculine or feminine. When an application form asks about Gender the answer choices are either Feminine, or Masculine. The form is NOT inquiring about which sex organs and hormones you possess (if that is what they want to know they should ask "Sex?"). There are masculine females; feminine males; feminine females; and masculine males. According to the World Health Organization, in "What do we mean by "sex" and "gender"?. . . gender is the result of socially constructed ideas about the behavior, actions, and roles a particular sex performs. The beliefs, values and attitude taken up and exhibited by them is as per the agreeable norms of the society and the personal opinions of the person is not taken into the primary consideration of assignment of gender and imposition of gender roles as per the assigned gender. Intersections and crossing of the prescribed boundaries have no place in the arena of the social construct of the term "gender".--http://www.who.int/gender/whatisgender/en/index.html
Jun 4 2013: Then may I ask why has the same gender roles have appeared almost universally in human culture. While we do have several egalitarian communities the rest and fairly sure most are patriarchal and I know of none that are matriarchal. So surely there is some sort of basis or common factor all humans share to cause this tendency.
Jun 5 2013: Commonness, or rate of occurrence is a separate question. Today's Navajo Nation in the Southwest of the USA is matriarchal, as is the Mosuo Tribe in China. Some South Sea Islanders have matriarchal structures like the Trobrianders. You equate matriarchal with egalitarian? Why? Perhaps your question is not so much about gender as it is about power distribution.
Jun 5 2013: No I do not equate matriarchy to egalitarian, I also disagree that commonness is separate from this. If the majority of human cultures are patriarchal and those that are not (such as the Mosuo) split work among the genders in the same way as patriarchal cultures (women doing housework while men care for livestock) then does that not show that gender (behavior and roles each sex performs) is in fact biologically based?
Jun 5 2013: RE: "No I do not equate. . . " In your statement, QUOTE " While we do have several egalitarian communities the rest and fairly sure most are patriarchal . . . " You seem to imply a clear contrast between egalitarian and patriarchal. Was that not your intention? I do most of the housework since I am retired and my wife is a working full-time schoolteacher. Is that a gender, or a sex, issue? I think it is a rationality issue. If you are looking for data to support the conclusion that behavior roles are biologically based I can only offer the physical ability argument which says things like men can't breastfeed babies, or women can't do a full planche pushup. If a task requires what only one sex can perform then roles are biologically driven. But very few roles in life meet the physical ability requirement, so I think the answer is "No, gender is not biologically based".

In the AD&D players handbook a lot of spells require spell components but no where can I find rules, costs, or anything else regarding spell components. So I assume this is one of the do it yourself aspects of the game, so I am wondering if anyone has or had a system or at least a set of guidelines regarding spell components that covers costs or maybe guidelines for gathering the components.
Example: the material component for Tenser's Floating Disk (pg68 PHB) is a drop of mercury and yet nothing is given as to how to obtain mercury, and this would seem to be uncommon and would certainly require some effort on part of the spell caster to obtain the mercury.
So basically I am looking for a way to handle spell components without resulting in a spell component pouch (D&D 3.5).

An International Study of Global Corporate Strategy and the Future of Skills
This study investigated the global HR and skills strategies of multinational companies in a context of increasing economic competition. The study was based on 200 in-depth interviews with senior managers, directors and executives in leading multinational companies in four industrial sectors – financial services, automotive, telecommunications and electronics. It also included 50 interviews with key national policy-makers in Britain, China, Germany, Singapore, South Korea, India and the United States.
Aims of Project
- To conduct an international study of the skill strategies of multinational companies in China, Germany, India, Korea, Singapore, United Kingdom and the United States;
- To examine how leading multinational companies, from different business sectors, are developing global skill formation strategies;
- To examine how MNCs understand issues of skill formation in relation to their competition strategies?
- To examine trends in labour usage and assess its impact on business performance;
- To examine the consequences of corporate strategies on national systems of skill formation and to identify the importance of 'skill'.
The Focus of the Study
For senior managers and executives of MNCs this project will seek to:
- provide a better understanding of the management and leadership skills required in global corporations;
- identify international best practice in the use of employee skills;
- identify the latest trends in knowledge management and human capital management;
- understand the problems facing HR managers in meeting their skill needs in different national cultures;
- identifying the links between training, learning and business performance in leading-edge companies;
For the policy-makers this project seeks to:
- provide a better understanding of the skill requirements of MNCs and the ways in which these are changing in the context of the global economy;
- identify the best practices used to help MNCs acquire the appropriate skills;
- identify ways in which MNCs can enhance skill levels in local and national labour markets;
This major three year study is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council of Great Britain (ESRC). The ESRC funds independent academic research relevant to the wider world. It also seeks to encourage constructive dialogue between British social scientists and end-users including companies and policy-makers in the UK and beyond.

What's your favorite movie quote?
"You are like a giant cock blocking robot, like developed in a secret fucking government lab!" (Zombieland)
What's your favorite video game, and could you kick our butts at it?
I could kick anyone's butt in old school Super Mario.

What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
Boyfriend by Justin Bieber...even more embarrassing is I actually bought it from iTunes.

Hmmm... I think my best party trick is being able to drink all the boys under the table- and still not get a hangover!

Another better novel than I thought it would be. James Swain is an excellent author. Any writer who can make a kidnapping story interesting without dwelling on the macrabe is worth their talent in writing. 8 of 10 stars

PLYMOUTH, WI (WHBL) - A Plymouth man is facing weapons charges after falling on his face as he left a Plymouth tavern over the weekend. 56 year old Michael Dunn Sr. was charged yesterday with carrying a handgun where alcohol is sold and possession of a firearm while intoxicated. Both are misdemeanors and carry penalties of 9 months in jail and fines of $10,000. Authorities said Dunn was leaving the City Club Bar when he fell onto his face. He was unconscious and bleeding when EMTs arrived on the scene. That's when Paramedics found a loaded handgun in Dunn's jacket pocket. Dunn did have a concealed carry permit.

CommonWell Plans EHR Pilot; Denies Data Will Be For Sale
A joint effort to provide interoperability among the electronic health records systems of competing vendors is proceeding without a great deal of transparency and openness outside of the participating members.
Three months ago this week, Cerner, McKesson, Allscripts, Greenway and athenahealth—rivals all—announced the CommonWell Health Alliance, a joint effort to provide interoperability among their electronic health records systems and others.
Technology companies are good at announcing such alliances, but customers often never see all the benefits promised. Making different technologies interoperate is difficult, and U.S. companies in particular are predisposed to compete with each other, making attempts at interoperability even tougher.
But since 90 days have passed, I thought it was time to check in with CommonWell to see how things are going, particularly since we haven't really gotten any general progress reports from the group.
As alliances go, it is my opinion that the work being done is being undertaken without a great deal of transparency and openness outside of the alliance members.
To its credit, CommonWell offered me time with two Cerner executives who addressed some of the recent issues brought forth by Epic founder/CEO and CommonWell skeptic Judy Faulkner. In recent comments at the Health IT Policy Committee, committee member Faulkner questioned whether CommonWell would be offering patient data for sale, or if it was trying to assemble a patent portfolio, both of which would definitely be unwelcome developments.
"We're very explicit that we will not use the data for any purpose other than to deliver the services of CommonWell," says David McCallie, senior vice president for medical informatics at Cerner. "There will be no data resale. We're not going to de-identify the data and do anything with it. We're not going to sell it in an identified form, and that's been clear from day one."
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
John Kon (6/5/2013 at 4:28 PM)
This is just marketing to combat the market share gains of Epic. Did they say the interfaces will be free? Nope. Sure Cerner et al want to make an interface once and sell it many times.
Jeff Hawley (6/4/2013 at 9:31 PM)
What's interesting to note is no mention of a funding model for the pilot or the up-and-running HIE. One of the major issues HIE's is sustainabilty beyond the initial seed money to build out the infrastructure. Would this be a subscription model? Does a member pay to "ship" the data, "receive" the data?

Once the garden starts producing eggplant, there's' more than enough to go around. This recipe is a delicious, easy, healthy way to enjoy eggplant, and makes a great meatless meal.
In India, the eggplants are cut up with the skin on, but American tastes usually dictate peeling the eggplant first; the choice is yours. Peel and slice eggplant into 1/2" to 3/4" rounds, discarding the very top and bottom slices. Cut each slice into equally sized pieces, somewhere around 1 inch square. Sprinkle eggplant with lemon juice, set aside. In a large, nonstick saute pan, melt butter until sizzling, over medium-high heat (add garlic at this point if using fresh smashed cloves). Add eggplant, shake and flip (eggplant will absorb butter quickly). The pan will be very full at first, but the eggplant will shrink down. Continue to shake for about 1 minute. Drop heat to medium-low, sprinkle eggplant with CURRY POWDER, salt, BLACK PEPPER and GARLIC GRANULES. Add 1 TB. water, stir to coat. Continue to cook for about 10 minutes (up to 15 if your pieces are on the big side). Drizzle in 1 TB. of water every 2 minutes while flipping eggplant. The eggplant will brown during this period. The trick is to get nicely browned, thoroughly cooked eggplant without overcooking to the soggy state. Just pull a piece out and taste it when 10 minutes are up. It should be soft and slightly firm, but not hard. Serve with simple rice as a nice light lunch, or use as a vegetable side dish.
Serves: 6 as a
side dish, 4 as lunch with rice.

Woodworker's Journal
Many of us work alone in our shops. (I know, it is hazardous to work solo, but the fact remains that it is what most of us do.) There is pleasure to be found in the creative solitude of your workshop. Frustration abounds as well, like when you are one hand too few during a glue-up. Or when the sheet of plywood you are ripping droops down and bonks into the front face of your roll-off stand. Well, while RIDGID won't graft an extra arm and hand onto your body (I will pass the suggestion on to the design team, however), they have solved the drooping plywood dilemma with a practical and nifty work support that employs a unique flip-top feature.
One look at the tool and you wonder why it was not invented earlier. Intuitive to use, the support (properly identified as the AC9933 ... catchy, huh?) will aid the solo woodworker with a wide variety of tasks. Its patented pivoting top will catch sagging stock and actually lift it back into the proper cutting plane as you push the workpiece forward. An answer to many late-night workshop prayers and not a few curses. How often have you found yourself part way through a rip cut and have had to shut down your saw's power because you've run into trouble on the outfeed side of things? It has happened to me.
When in use, the stand has a wide and stable base, key to any support stand's success. If you wish to have the top locked horizontally for a specific task, there is a slide-in pin for that purpose. It's sturdy, it's able to support up to 250 lbs. and it's adjustable from 27" to 45" high. The AC9933 also folds up to a remarkably small size, making it easy to store. (Another small shop advantage.)
While you don't have to boot-up the new AC9933 to use it, this is one new shop option that definitely computes

Whether you live in an urban setting or in the country, summertime means outdoor activities time. Time to get out all the summer dresses, swim gears, flip flops and head to the beach, park or summer vacation spot. The great outdoors and sunshine brings lots of health benefits to our body, mind and soul, after long months of cold weather and indoor activities.
Exposure to sunlight is the best natural source of Vitamin D, but being overly exposed may lead to something else…sunburn. How do you prepare your family to enjoy the sun and heal from sunburn quickly?
Here are our 7 on how to heal from sunburn:
One: Food and Nutrition
What you eat will affect the severity of sunburn and the speed of healing. Eating food rich in Vitamin C and E and beta-carotene on, before or after sun exposure could help prevent, lessen the exposure and repair sun damage.
Five servings of food like spinach and other leafy green vegetables, red pepper, melons, apricot, carrots, broccoli, flax seed, avocado, almonds, sunflower seeds and citrus fruits are rich either in Vitamin C, E or beta carotene. They are antioxidants for your body.
Lycopene, found in cooked tomatoes are also useful in healing sunburn quickly.
It is not always easy to have enough nutrients in our bodies. For sufficient Vitamin C, Young Living has two options. Super C and Super C Chewable. Both provide the body with powerful antioxidant Vitamin C with 2,166 percent of the daily amount recommended.
Two: Water
Drinking water helps hydrate, re-hydrate and cool down our body during hot summer days. Caffeinated or sugared drinks are not the same as drinking pure water. If you quench your thirst with liquids other than pure water, you are not providing your body the necessary liquid to re-hydrate.
Urine that is very dark or not clear is most likely showing signs of dehydration in your body.
Water could help cool down sunburn skin and help with pain relief for burnt skin.
Three: Cool shower and cool wet compress
Avoid hot baths or showers when you are treating sunburned skin. Hot water may irritate and cause more inflammation to your skin. Cool showers and cool wet compresses can help ease pain and heat from the sun.
Get a washcloth and soak it in cool water (not ice) and apply directly to burn areas for several minutes. Continuously rewetting the washcloth and apply a few times throughout the day.
Four: LavaDerm Cooling Mist
The gel-like liquids in aloe vera plants have been used for centuries in treating sunburn. Study shows that aloe has anti-inflammatory properties and has the right ingredients to treat burns. Finding aloe vera plant is not that easy when you need them immediately.
Another of nature's gifts for healing and regenerating burn, rashes and skin irritation is lavender essential oil. It was discovered by accident by French chemist, Rene Maurice Gattefosse when he was severely burned in a laboratory accident. He accidently dipped his burnt hand into a jar of lavender. It instantly soothed the pain and his healing began.
Young Living has a perfect combination of these two ingredients. The LavaDerm Cooling Mist is a cooling spray that contains lavender essential oil and aloe vera gel. The cooling spray has the right combination of essential oil and aloe to help soothe and rejuvenate stressed skin.
Spray topically onto desired area and repeat every ten to fifteen minutes or as needed. It will quickly cool and hydrate affected areas and speed healing and tissue regeneration.
Testimonial from Brenda, Minnesota:
My husband was out boating and didn't apply any sunscreen. He received a really bad sunburn on his back. That evening I applied the LavaDerm Spray and he seemed to sleep well even with the bad sunburn. The next morning he applied the LavaDerm spray HIMSELF. To me that was a true testament to the power of the LavaDerm spray. The LavaDerm also prevented him from peeling.
Five: Topical application of Essential Oils and moisturizer
The sun does dry up our skin. Apply lavender essential oil directly to affected skin or add 10 drops of lavender oil in a 4 oz. spray bottle filled with distilled water. Shake well and spray on to affected areas. (From The Reference Guide for Essential Oils compiled by Connie and Alan Higley).
Testimonial from Leslie, Arkansas:
A client of mine got sunburned on her upper leg from canoeing and decided to see just how good Lavender is for sunburn. She applied lavender on one leg and a commercial sunburn product on another. A day or two later she showed it to me, and before I knew that she had done the test I mentioned that one leg sure got more sunburned than the other. And you guessed it, the one that was better was the one with the essential oil treatment. That proved it for both of us!
If you have sensitive skin, dilute lavender oil with V-6 oil or any pure vegetable oil before applying onto skin.
A client that has sensitive skin:
A friend of ours just returned from the shore and when I seen her my first thought was emergency room. She could hardly walk because she was burnt so bad on the front of her legs. I gave her a bottle of lavender oil and some V-6 vegetable oil in case the lavender had a sting to it on her sunburned body. The next day we called her and she said she felt much better and was up and moving around. She said she didn't use any of the vegetable oil and the lavender didn't sting but felt so soothing. She is now interested in what other oils can do.- Jim from Pennsylvania
Use lavender Hand and Body Lotion to help moisturize skin after using LaveDerm.
Six: Natural Pain Relief
In 1996 of Young Living Essential Edge, there was an article entitled "Sunburn Relief" where the article said researchers found that many people received instant pain relief when using Mineral Essence internally or topically applied to sunburn areas. (From The Reference Guide for Essential Oils).
Mineral Essence is a natural liquid mineral supplement that contains over 60 organic, ionic trace minerals blended with Royal Jelly and Essential Oils. These ingredients provide antimicrobial protection and improves oxygenation to the cells in our body.
Seven: If severely burned, seek medical help
If you are severely burned, have swelling and blisters developing, or running a fever, seek medical professional help immediately.
Prep your skin: I learned this from several friends who like to vacation down in warm climates. They prepare their skin by slowly introducing sunlight after several months without it. They go tanning strategically getting a little bit of sun working their skin up so that they are tan by the time they are ready for vacation.
They say you can still burn if you over do it, but your skin is better prepared to take the intense rays of the sun… Now I don't know if this is skin science but I do know they don't have the bad burns I have had in my life.
About the sun's rays:
As much as we need the sun's exposure to replenish our Vitamin D stores and enjoy the pleasure of playing and lying in the sun, overexposure could cause skin or eye damage and skin cancer. Remember the three types of ultraviolet rays present in sunlight. The UVA, UVB and UVC.
Over exposure to UVA will cause skin to wrinkle and aging and may contribute to melanoma. Pay attention to the weather advisory for the day about the intensity of UVA rays.

Commitment has been the key for Waverly-Shell Rock's Spencer Derifield --
It's commitment that's made him one of the best wrestlers in the state of Iowa -- and it's commitment that makes him better each time he steps on the mat --
Go-Hawk Coach Eric Whitcomb said, "He's a hard worker, hard nosed kid, and you put all those things together and some determination, and you have some success."
As a freshman -- Derifield reached the state tournament for the first time in high school -- as a sophomore he made it to the podium finishing 8th.
But never satisfied -- he put in the work his junior year and finished on top of the 3-A 152 pound weight class -- and a reminder of the commitment that got him there hangs prominently on the wall of the Go-Hawk wrestling room --
Derifield said, "It was amazing. It was what I'd been working for since I first started wrestling in front of all those fans just getting my hand raised and that's motivated me to want that feeling again."
While a second state title is one of the senior's goals -- he's not just focused on himself with the Go-Hawks eyeing a team title --
"That's our goal. We know we can do it. We're starting to think others think we can do it, too, but the most important thing is we know we can do it."
Derifield's teammates Andrew Steiert and Kaleb Staack also sit a top the rankings at their respective weights -- and overall 9 Go-Hawks sit in the top 10 as the team tries to capture the 10th state title in school history --
"We've been talking about it all year that come February we're going to put ourselves in a position to win a team title and I think we've made progress toward that all year."
And for Spencer Derifield -- never being satisfied and a commitment to getting better will be key to reaching the top once again.
"We're not competing to where our best is yet, coaches always tell us we're just working up til the end, and that's when we'll be at our best. I'm feeling pretty good, but I know I've got a lot to work on."

Barbecue season has officially begun! We're guessing that a lot of you probably kicked that off back in January. However, the warmer weather is upon us, which means you're going to be spending more downtime outdoors. As exciting as one of your parties may seem, no one is entertained by the sound of sizzling meats. If you want to throw the proper outdoor party, you're going to need music.
Scoring the right party soundtrack is nothing new. People have been dragging out the boombox or propping speakers into the window for quite some time. However, why add an extra step into your party planning process? Having a set of outdoor speakers ensures that you always have music outside—and that it sounds good. Also once the party is over, you don't have to worry about cleaning up your sound system along with those empty beer bottles. Quality outdoor speakers are made to withstand the elements, so they can live outside not just in the summer, but all year long.
Looking to make the great outdoors even greater? Take a peek at these 22 outdoor speaker options.

The Blue Jays' offence has been positively dazzling, especially in the first eight days of May. You might as well change the franchise name from the Blue Jays to the "Thunder Birds." The Jays have scored 56 runs in putting together a 6-2 record, good for an average of seven runs per game.
Over the last couple of weeks, everyone has been talking about the firepower of the Colorado Rockies and rightly so, but the Rockies have scored 58 runs over the same span in May and have an identical 6-2 mark. Granted, the Rockies don't play with a DH for the bulk of their games, so their totals are slightly more impressiveThe Jays' pitching numbers have improved this month, as well. They have given up just 31 runs or just fewer than four per game. Colorado has surrendered exactly 32 or four runs per game right on the button.
On the season, the Jays have scored 178 runs and given up 158. That 178 total is second in the American League to the Chicago White Sox who have racked up 184, which is, coincidentally, the same number they have allowed. The 178 the Jays have scored is the best in the AL East, but the 158 against is fourth-worst in the American League, ahead of only the Texas Rangers (174), Houston Astros (181) and the White Sox. The Jays though have improved by leaps and bounds over a year ago when they were 13-23 out of the gate. At this point last season, the Jays had only scored 139 runs and had given up 190. The -51 run differential was second-worst in the American League to Houston at -73.
The really interesting comparison takes us back to 1993, the last time the Blue Jays won the World Series. The season started a week later so it took the '93 Jays until May 14 to play their 35th game, but guess what - their record then was exactly the same as this year's edition at 18-17. On that date the '93 Jays had scored, you guessed it, 178 runs, the same as this year's team. The '93 bunch though had allowed a dreadful 193 runs through May 14 for a -15 run differential. I'm not saying the 2014 Blue Jays are as good a team as the '93 Jays, because at this point that would be ludicrous. Remember that the '93 Jays added Tony Fernandez and Rickey Henderson to the mix with in-season deals and became even stronger and the 1993 edition also had a lights-out closer in Duane Ward. Still, the numbers of the current team are intriguing and give cause for some hope.
Another point - the Blue Jays have won a season high five-straight, which, while impressive, can only be considered a starting point. The '93 Jays had three outstanding runs in-season, From May 20 through June 5, they won 13 of 16 games. Then, from June 15 through the 29, they took 12 of 14 to push their record to 48-30. After losing 10 of 11 from June 30 to July 11 to fall to 49-40, they rebounded to take nine of 10 from July 24 through August 3. Next came a nine-game win streak from September 10 through 21 and then they finished the season by winning five of their final seven. The Jays finished the 1993 regular season with a 95-67 record, one victory fewer than the previous year's team. They scored 847 runs, second-best in the American League and gave up 742, which was fifth in the American League. Their run differential was +105.
On last May 9, the New York Yankees, Baltimore Orioles and Boston Red Sox were in a virtual tie for first in the AL East. Tampa Bay was 16-18, four-and-a-half games out. The Blue Jays were dead last at 13-23, eight-and-a-half games out. On May 9, this time around, the Jays are alone in third place in the East, one game back of the Yankees and one-and-a-half behind first-place Baltimore. It's still a very long, difficult haul, but this summer may not be as long as many of us thought it would be.
- We don't get to see enough of Colorado to truly appreciate the talents of their young third baseman Nolan Arenado. On Thursday, he broke Michael Cuddyer's club record 27-game hit streak that was set only last season. At 28 games, Arenado is exactly halfway to Joe DiMaggio's iconic 56-game streak set in 1941. If Arenado stays healthy and can put together one of those streaks for the ages, he would be in position to equal and then surpass DiMaggio's streak June 10 and 11 at home against the Atlanta Braves at Coors Field. Realistically, though, in this day and age, it's hard to see anyone coming close to that milestone.
- The Blue Jays lost outfielder Moises Sierra on a waiver claim to the White Sox last weekend. He was added to Chicago's roster last Sunday and made late-inning appearances in that game against the Cleveland Indians and in Monday's cross-city rivalry game against the Cubs at Wrigley Field, going hitless in one at-bat for the two games. On Tuesday, though, Adam Dunn was a late scratch and skipper Robin Ventura stuck Sierra in the line-up in right field. He went four-for-four and scored a run in the White Sox 5-1 victory over the Cubbies. It will be interesting to see how his career unfolds with this fresh start.
- Two of this year's early season hard-luck pitchers faced each other earlier this week at Wrigley. Jose Quintana of the White Sox pitched seven innings of one-hit ball, giving up just one run, while racking up his fourth no-decision in starts. This coming from the guy who set an American League record a year ago with 17 no-decisions. Quintana is 1-2 on the campaign with a 3.56 ERA. On the flip side, the Cubs' Jeff Samardzija, who's in his contract year, fired nine innings of three-hit, one-run ball before being taken out. Again, a no decision. Samardizija, who's pitched like an All-Star and has been the subject of many a trade rumour is 0-3 with an incredible 1.62 earned run average. Ultimately, he probably will be traded to a contender, maybe even the Jays, but not until a lot closer to the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline. And, yes, the White Sox did win that game at Wrigley 3-1 over the Cubs in 12 innings.

Customer Reviews
The coat was in very good shape and the medium seemed true to size. Very good value.
Nice wool, but total scam on the sizing. I wear XL, so I ordered XL. What they sent me was medium to large based on old coats in my closet, so I sent it back and ordered an XXL. They sent me a small to medium that I couldn't even get my arms into. If they figure you wont' send it back, they'll send you not what you order but what they can't sell. Scam.
Great condition. Very warm and fits great. Mine even came with infantry crossed rifles on the collars.
It was as described and in great shape. It had a bit of an old smell when I first took it out of the bag but it didn't take long to go away.
I'm 6' and about 200 lbs. I got an XL and it just fits me. If it was any smaller or I get bigger I won't be able to wear it. Nice quality coat though. My
It was out of stock and I never got it.

After the release of Georgia House Bill 60 on July 1, Georgia bar owners must make a decision about whether or not they will allow guns inside their places of business.
Georgia's House Bill 60 allows people with concealed carry permits to bring a gun into an establishment that serves alcohol, unless the owner expressly forbids it. Bars that want to continue keeping weapons out have to let their customers know, usually by putting a sign near the front door.
David Carson, Soho bar owner says, "In order to be in compliance, I posted a handmade sign. It's the best I could do for today. Number one, we don't want weapons in the bar anyway, and it's never even been an issue. I've owned this place for twelve years now in July. We ask them to leave or check the weapon, put in the car or lock it up and do something safe with it."
"Alcohol and weapons do not mix one bit. Somebody is going to do something really stupid and we want to prevent that right off. There is a place for things like that, and a bar or church, or anything like that is not it." says Frankie Larson, Spicoli's Bar Manager.
Not every bar is completely against the changes. The manager at sports page on Veterans Parkway says they're still developing their permanent policy, but for the time being, they're going to pick and choose, which is allowed under the law.
Anthony Williams, Sports Page bar manager says, "My feeling is that as long as they've got permits like they're supposed to have to carry a weapon, then I don't necessarily see a problem with that. But if someone were drinking a lot, that might be a different situation."
One customer, Devan Fleming, says she supports the right to carry guns, but she doesn't think they mix with alcohol. "I feel like some people make bad mistakes and bad choices when it comes to using things under the influence, whether it's walking -using a curb badly- or using their car, so I don't agree with it." says Fleming.
Another customer said he thinks the law should only protect someone who is acting as a designated driver who is not planning on drinking and wants to carry a gun in the bar.

BROWN COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) - Two people are being sought for allegedly using another person's credit or debit cards at two locations in Brown County.
Investigators say a man and woman walked into the CVS Pharmacy, 2222 South Webster Avenue in Allouez, just before 7 p.m. March 12. They tried to use cards belonging to someone in Maine to buy several hundred dollars worth of gift cards, but the transaction was denied.
Just before 9 p.m. that night, the man went to the CVS Pharmacy at 800 Main St. in De Pere, where he successfully used the card to buy a $450 gift card.
The woman tried five more times to buy things with two separate credit cards, but was denied.
They left in a newer silver compact car.
Surveillance photos of the suspects and their car can be seen above.
Investigators think the two are working as part of a larger group, but did not say why they think that.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Brown Co. Sheriff's Office at (920) 448-6190. Anonymous tips can be left with Crime Stoppers by calling (920) 432-7867 or texting GBTIP and the information to 274637.

Dear few and loyal readers,
I am well aware that I announced my return to the blog world almost five months ago. I am aware that I stuck it out for less than one month, with just five posts during that time. I am aware that for those of you who have been with me from the beginning, that is exactly the kind of output you have come to expect. And yes, RileyDad, Young Sailor, and Katie,I am very aware that you told us so.
The fact is, I've encountered an unexpected impediment. Every time I've thought of a post, and even when I've sat down to write one, I find myself facing a mental block that is different from ordinary writer's block. You see, it's been close to two years since I wrote regularly on this site. And I'm simply not the same person that I was two years ago. Ten months of marriage are a major part of it, though not the whole.
I started this blog as a nineteen-year-old opinionated introverted stay-at-home daughter (to give myself a label that will fit anyone's manila filing system). I'm still opinionated and introverted, and few of my many opinions (don't hate me, I'm Irish) have changed. But I've grown up a lot (I hope). I've added some new opinions, I've learned many things, and I no longer express myself quite the same way. I hope I've grown both a little more confident and a little more teachable.
All of this to say that I recently realised the source of my reluctance to revive Live Like A Narnian. It is that this blog simply doesn't fit me anymore. I've outgrown it like my quickly-changing pregnant body has outgrown the plaid skirts that I loved as a teen. Possibly I wouldn't feel this way if I had been blogging through the changes of the last year-and-a-half–if this blog had grown with me, so to speak. But I didn't, so it didn't. It represents an Emma that doesn't exist anymore.
Sooooooooo . . . .
I am returning to the blog world, but not to Live Like A Narnian. I'll leave it in place (for now) as an archive, but I am moving on. This saddens me a little: I loved blogging here. I still want to stand by the play-world. But the time of this blog as a record of 'my Narnian life' has passed.
As I thought about Live Like A Narnian's lack of fitness for my new life, 'The Adventures of Emily Upchurch' as my husband calls it, I remembered a blog I had begun to set up and never finished shortly after our wedding. I intended at the time to use it as a homemaking blog. But I think its title is such a perfect fit that I've decided that it will be my new online home.
So, swing by Practicing Hidden Art, where I have already begun posting (so there, naysayers who know me too well!).
Thanks for sticking with me! Goodbye, Live Like A Narnian; I'll always remember you with fondness.
