Actually, it isn't that strange. :) I've come across several advice books that recommended onions be placed in the sickroom. They were believed to absorb germs and some books advised that they should be hung in the nursery to keep the baby healthy. And some medical advisers also recommended burning sulphur to disinfect a room after someone has been sick.
That's why I love vintage advice - it was meant to be practical and people used it and still use it today. Would your grandmother consider writing down her advice and recipes?
Thanks for writing, I always enjoy it when people take the time to get in touch. And I'm really glad you're enjoying Questionable Advice.
James Lileks is one of my heroes! I don't know how many times I've laughed myself sick reading his book "Gallery of Regrettable Foods". Anyone out there who likes their vintage ads & advice mixed with snarky comments shouldn't miss his site.

He preaches vegetarianism Minister says regimen helped cure his cancer Stressing the wisdom of a diet of raw vegetables and fruits, the Rev. George Malkmus delivers a message of health through natural foods.
On Monday, he will share the experience that changed his life when he speaks at the monthly Eat for Life Vegetarian Fellowship dinner at First Baptist Church in Hickory.
Malkmus, a Baptist preacher for more than 30 years, combines the personal testimonial of his own recovery from colon cancer with his research into nutrition and biblical teachings to develop a case for a vegetarian diet composed primarily of raw foods, he said in a news release.
Nearly 30 years ago, at age 42, Malkmus was diagnosed with colon cancer shortly after his mother died of the disease, the release said. Rather than pursuing the same treatment that had failed his mother, he chose to follow a vegetarian diet composed largely of raw vegetables and fruits.
The new diet, along with exercise and other lifestyle changes, cured his cancer and offered him relief from a variety of other ailments, including high blood pressure, hemorrhoids, hypoglycemia, and severe sinus and allergy problems, the release said.
Retired Hickory physician Dr. Thomas Warren, a member of First Baptist Church and the Eat for Life Vegetarian Fellowship, said he finds Malkmus' work to be worthwhile.
"It's an outstanding program, a good opportunity for people to address their health-care needs and take responsibility for them," Warren said. "The diet is biblically based and a vegan program, with no meat, poultry or fish.
"Once you make the leap into vegan, you'll find you can get everything you need from plant sources, including quality protein."
According to Malkmus, the more mankind strays from the original diet found in Genesis 1:29, the more likely that sickness is to occur. He says the standard American diet of processed foods and unhealthy lifestyles are largely responsible for an epidemic of obesity, diabetes and other diseases in the United States.
In 1986 Malkmus founded Hallelujah Acres in Shelby, a nondenominational Christian center for education, health food products and services, including raw food prep classes and a vegetarian cafe open for lunch on weekdays and Saturdays.
A half-mile walking path also winds along the perimeter of the campus past the organic garden and greenhouse through fields and by woods.

Unmissable in USA?
I'm just starting to plan a bike trip from Argentina to Canada. The US bit of the trip is tricky to plan because of the 3 month visa limit. (UK passport)
What would you say was unmissable in
1. West coast USA
2. The middle bit
3. East Coast
I've been to New York, LA and Las Vegas before. I really wanna go to San Francisco, and I need to enter Canada somewhere near Vancouver. Maybe up through Seattle.
Whaddya think?
3 months is plenty of time to hit all 48 lower states!! Coming up thru Mexico, I would enter the US through the Algodones port of entry. On a bike, you just scoot through the auto line to the front, and do your business, and you're in the US. (It's easy for me to say 'cause I'm a US citizen, and I usually walk across at that crossing to buy the necessities such as cheap tequila and cartons of cigarettes (for my wife, not me)). But I know that travelers have used that entry as I have seen them write about it.
The downside is you will be as far east in California as you can get before the Arizona state line. (About 150 miles/240 Km's from San Diego. (The other alternative is to "bite the bullet" and cross at Tijuana, which might not be as bad as I have heard it is, but someone who has done it would have to tell you first hand).
To get to San Francisco, there are many alternate routes, but the most straightforward is up Interstate 5. I 5 runs from the US/Mexican border in California (Tijuana port of entry), and goes all the way up thru Calif., through Oregon, thru Washington (state), and to the US/Canadian border. It will take you through San Francisco, too.
As this will take you less than a week to do, even with the L.A. traffic, lol, you can plan a route eastward, too. I have suggested to people before to try the Arizona sights in the northern part of this US state. If you were to come out of Mexico at Algondones, turn right and ride for about 10 miles on Interstate 8. At Highway 95 (be careful, there are two) go left and follow that one up for 150 miles. You will follow the Colorado River which is a nice sight to see. When you reach Lake Havasu, if you are homesick, you can take in "London Bridge" which is that transplanted bridge from your side of the pond!
A little to the north of Havasu is Interstate 40. Go east a couple of hours to the turnoff to the Grand Canyon. It is about an hour's drive from I 40 to the Grand Canyon, but is a great sight to see. A few hours east of the Grand Canyon is Canyon de Chelly (Chelly is pronounced "shay") This is, to me, a much better canyon than the Grand Canyon. It is not as deep, but is much more intimate, and not as many people are here. Worth a look.
Not too far is Monument Valley. That is well worth a look, too. You will recognize the rock formations from many a movie and from advertisements.
Then, find the road to Page, at Lake Powell. It is a man-made lake, but very nice. Head out of Page and to the northern side of the Grand Canyon which is supposed to be the better side to see it on. Keep going west thru Utah, which will lead you to Vegas. (You know you want to go back!!)
After Vegas, you can make your way further west to San Francisco. and then cut up north. But like I said before, 3 months will allow you plenty of time to see pretty much any part of the country as you wanted to. Maybe I misunderstood, and you only have 3 months total time, but you can take in the sights I mentioned in a week's time, including the time it takes you to get through California north of San Francisco, through Oregon, and through Washington. As I have never been north of SFran, perhaps someone could give you the sights to see from northern California upwards.
One thing we are blessed with in the US, and the Canadians are, too, is a good highway system. If you stick to the major routes, you can make very good times.
Excellent stuff! Cheers old boy.
You're right - I do need to go back to Vegas...
My 2 cents worth
My suggestions:
1) Don't ride any of the Interstate highways in the U.S., unless you have to get through major cities or need to get somewhere in a hurry. But, you're guaranteed not to see anything (like, don't ride up I-5 to get from California to Washington - it sucks). Ride the "red" highways (2 lane on US maps) or solid black roads (paved) on US maps. Its slower, but more interesting, and you'll run across much more interesting food, places to stay, things to stop and look at then you'll find at any freeway exit.
2) Plan to hit as many National Parks as possible. To me, that's the good stuff in America. If you're going to ride up the 2-lane highways from Arizona up along the California/Nevada border, try hitting the Grand Canyon, Redwoods, Yosemite, Lassen, Crater Lake, Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Rainier etc. Buy a National Park Pass at the first one you hit - $50 - but its good for a year. Gets you into NP's and some others (National Monuments) where a daily vehicle fee is required (which is usually $5 a day minimum -camping is extra).
Riding the California, Oregon and Washington coast is also good, but it tends to be cooler and wetter than the interior, but certainly an enjoyable and interesting ride the whole way.
3) You can't go wrong just riding the west for scenery - from the front range of the Rockies (Denver) to the Pacific. Back and forth, up and down - you'll see some damn impressive country everywhere you go.
4) For American history - its the east coast. Some good scenery there as well in the Apalachians, but it's where the U.S. has all its most important historical stuff related to the colonies, the revolt from Britain, the U.S. Civil War battlefields, oldest architecture (nothing even close to Europe), etc.
5) A good way to see America if you are camping is doing BMW motorcycle ralleys (other brands may also have similar - I'm familiar with BMW's). You don't need a BMW to attend their rallies. What's great about them is, they are camping ralleys, and you'll have secure camping (to leave your gear behind while you are out riding the local area during the day), showers and other facilities (shelters), some meals (dinners and maybe some breakfast food) and the like for a modest price (like around $50/person, for showing up Thursday or Friday, departing Sunday weekend). You can get info on the BMWMOA website (www.bmwmoa.org) of where rallies take place, plan routes to each one accordingly to take advantage of your interests. Its a cheap, easy way to see a small area of the country (usually good motorcycle roads) with lots of people to offer suggestions of what to see, where to ride.
6) Drink beer only at micro-breweries -you can find them just about everywhere. Forget those major beer brands - piss water.
In 3 months you can just about see the whole lower 48. Use the interstates in the flat boring northern middle section and to get back west if you spend too long in the east.
As someone else said, unless you need to make time backroad it. We have LOTS of backroads that are 60mph.
In the south east, St Augustine Florida, Atlanta Georgia, New Orleans Louisiana, Fontana Dam, Deal's Gap North Carolina, Cheraholwa Skyway, Blue Ridge Parkway, drift north on the backroads to Maine, loop through Vermont, New Hampshire, into northern New York. In Michigan, the Mackinaw Bridge. Take at least a pass through West Virginia.
I tend to eat miles so I might not be the best to gauge how long a trip takes, but, 3 months would be enough for me to make 3 or 4 loops around the lower 48.
But the real Crown Jewels here are California Wines.
Best in the world....no contest....and so cheap its hard to believe. :clap:
Touring South West USA
In October 2002, after being in LA for work, I spend a week touring on a rented BMW R850R.
Maybe some of the routes I took and places I visited are interesting for you too.
You can read my trip report on my website:
By the way, I enjoyed reading your weblog.
Yeah, I messed up with my highway/freeway geography, but 70 miles can be done in about an hour. Plus, the 5 was only an option as I wasn't sure how much time he had in the US. (Total of 3 months for the entire trip, or 3 months for the US part?) If he needed to "get there" then the 5 is an alternate. If he has some leisure time in the States, then, by all means, and by the grace of God, avoid any of the freeways/highways/interstates pretty much anywhere in the US, but California in particular!! (Take the backroads/biways/frontage roads)
BTW, if you read his trip through Africa, then you will probably agree that he will end up moving to Vegas, if he can help it...
I've just returned form a 3-month 15,000mile motorcycle ride around the US from the East Coast to the Pacific and back again. My bike was a Honda ST1100 Pan European.
Please feel free to have a look at my website http://groups.msn.com/FROMSEATOSHININGSEAANDBACK
I rode in the area you are discussing, from Yuma to San Diego then north up R5 to Los Angeles then Malibu. I then cut inland to Barstow and Las Vegas. After a few days, I headed west into Death Valley calling in at Badwater (one of the lowest places on the Earth's crust) staying the night at Stovepipe Wells (118f at 4pm), then on to Tioga Pass and Yosemite for a few days then on to San Francisco. I then headed down the R1 to Big Sur, a superb road but overtaking possibilities reduced by the speed limits and double yellow lines.
If your gonna be on the west coast around San Fran then you'll have to see the redwoods, crater lake then ride the Oregon coast from Goldbeach to Newport. Try to see as many of the parks as possible; Gran Canyon, Zion, Arches, Yellowstone, Glacier/Waterton all must do's. Just do like I do and get the N.P. pass for $50, it'll save you in the long run.
If you are in my little corner of the world (WAshington State) I would say that you shouldn't miss seeing Mt. St. Helens from the Windy Ridge stopoff as well as the Olympic National Park. Both are easily accessible from the main Interstate I-5 although I wouldn't recommend using I-5 for your travels (if that makes any sense). I-5 has way too much traffic, especially north of Olympia. Try to avoid this route but you may have to cross over it to get from say Windy Ridge on Mt. St. Helens to Olympic National Park. Don't miss these locations. Also try to hit the San Juan islands.
If you need more info, once you are up here feel free to contact me via email or PM.
USA ride
Hi , I will recommand the West states more than the East coast as the scenery will be so much more interesting , you can forget Florida state ( big long boring state , I live there), the mid west is full of incredible park and the riding will be easy if you are in the right season, if you can enter Canada close to Vancouver and then after a visit to the city head north for some incredible riding.You can buy a book from National geografic about the most scenicroad in the US , I use it many time and never been disapointed.
3 month in U.S.A.
Hello Simon,
I don't claim to have been everywhere or done everthing,but I have ridden 250,000 miles or so here.I,ve ridden to the western states and loved them for what they are,and had agreat ride in NEW Jersey of all places.
As long as you stick to the back roads,the curvey ones it's all good.
So if your route brings you close Kentucky give me a shout, I can show you a world class ride in any direction from my home.And if you need aplace to stay you'll be welcome.I'm a farmer so most of May& June are pretty busy but you could check out my cows and tobacco crops.
As for a whistle wetter try Kentucky Ales Bourbon Barrel, it's real tasty.
Crazy Horse
Don't miss this one, Mt Rushmore pales into insignificance compared to Crazy Horse in the Black Hills of South Dakota. It blew me away!
Following is a quote from the web site "When completed the Crazy Horse mountain carving will be 641 feet long by 563 feet high. Crazy Horse's completed head is 87 feet 6 inches high. The horse's head, currently the focus of work on the mountain, is 219 feet or 22 stories high"

High wind gusts were a possible factor in a commercial truck and trailer tipping onto their side Wednesday afternoon along Interstate 84 about five miles west of North Powder. The crash blocked most of Interstate 84 eastbound until it was cleared.
According to Senior Oregon State Police Trooper Ryan Moorehead, a semi-tractor pulling an empty trailer was traveling on Interstate 84 eastbound near milepost 280 Wednesday afternoon. The truck was driven by 38-year-old Michael Corpuz from Santa Maria, CA.
Corpuz said a strong wind gust tipped the truck and trailer onto their side as he was driving. The truck and trailer came to rest blocking the inside shoulder and a majority of both traffic lanes. Corpuz was not transported to a hospital but did receive a minor injury during the incident.
Moorehead was about five miles from the crash when he was dispatched to the scene. He confirmed there were extreme wind gusts, sleet and heavy rain in the area at the time.
OSP troopers from La Grande and Baker City responded to the incident along with North Powder Quick Response, the Island City Fire Department, and ODOT.

Maybe you've seen the toothy grin of Aaron Rodgers that is scheduled to be plastered across newsstands next week as Sports Illustrated releases its "Fantasy meets Reality" issue. With folks in the Midwest region set to go gaga over the picture of Rodgers, other NFL Fans will see Peyton Manning and the Broncos, as well.
In addition to previews of the top 32 players at each offensive position, the issue will also focus on Rodgers, with a headline the reads "Why A-Rod (no, not that one!) is still the king of Wisconsin."
The closeup photograph of Rodgers spinning a football and looking happy as a lark, was probably taken prior to this week when the news of two of the Packers more important cogs in their offense's machine – Jordy Nelson and Bryan Bulaga – were injured. Concern in Packers Nation was the mode of operation this week as the team preps for its first preseason game on Friday.
But there is still hope. The Packers have plenty of depth at wide receiver and the team will once again reshuffle its line to fill the hole left by Bulaga's knee injury. In fact, the Packers have such confidence in a rookie by the name of David Bakhtiari, that they plan to give him every opportunity to win the job.
So maybe by the time the Packers finish out their preseason Rodgers will have this smile back on his face as the Packers hit the regular season in full stride.
Stay tuned.

On Aug. 3, 1940, he was united in marriage to Jean Jordan. Erwin served his country in World War II in the U.S. Navy, where he was a Quarter Master 3rd Class. Erwin worked in the Merchant Marine after the war. He returned to Berlin where he worked as a radio operator for the Berlin Police Department and installed the first police radio. Erwin also opened his own business, now known as Coulson Tax Service, located on Wisconsin & Marquette St. in Berlin. He has remained active in that business since 1953.

Chinese search engine Baidu was down for a bit last week, and they're blaming it on blocked access due to hackers. Users were instead sent to a site where the group "Iranian Cyber Army" was claiming responsibility. Despite the name, there's no evidence the group has actual ties based in Iran.
Now, Baidu is suing U.S.-based domain name registry, Register.com in the matter. Register.com, of course, says the suit has no merit.
The timing is curious. The suit comes a week after Google threatened to pull out of China if it could not serve up uncensored search results. They also said the GMail accounts of human rights activists were being hacked, and implied that the hacks were conducted by the Chinese government.
Now, we have a Chinese search engine accusing a U.S. company of negligence that lead to hacking. Additionally, Baidu has lost two key executives in past weeks - their CTO and their COO.
Maybe something fishy is going on. Maybe it's completely coincidental. The China v U.S. wars are heating up and I'm not sure anyone comes out a winner.

Kelsey Griffin's recruiting took a strange twist on Friday.
In the morning, the 4-star defensive tackle from Mill Creek High School committed to UGA in front of TV cameras.
On Friday evening, Griffin's high school coach told the AJC that he was no longer committed to UGA.
Here's what Mill Creek's Shannon Jarvis told the AJC via text message:
"We are about to load our buses for tonight's game so I will not be able to call. Please know that Kelsey is NOT committed to UGA right now. I know this may sound crazy, but it is the facts."
With Friday's kickoff against Peachtree Ridge fast approaching, Jarvis did not respond another text message asking for further clarification — Did Kelsey Griffin commit to UGA and have a change of heart? Or did Griffin publicly pledge to UGA and later find out that it was rejected by the Bulldogs?
UGA cannot comment on prospective

This won the Oscar for best animated short film in 2007, and you can see why. It clocks in at 30 minutes long, and the animation is incredible.
This is a modernised take on the original Prokofiev tale. It uses the music throughout, but here Peter lives with his cantankerous grandfather, is bullied by local poachers and appears to have no friends, other than his pet duck and a passing crow. The other children in the town eye him with suspiscion, and he cannot join in with their games. In this film Peter is unhappy and dreams of exporing the woods at the back of the house. As we know, this leads to disastrous consequences.
This film is beautifully moving and reminds you of just how incredible stop motion can be. For the first few minutes I couldn't quite tell whether it was CGI or not, as it's so detailed and smooth. It's well worth viewing if you have the opportunity and enjoy the experience of painstakingly created animation.

Police officers, armed security guards, surveillance cameras, and metal detectors are common features of the disturbing new landscape at many of today's high schools. You will also find new and harsher disciplinary practices: zero-tolerance policies, random searches with drug-sniffing dogs, and mandatory suspensions, expulsions, and arrests, despite the fact that school crime and violence have been decreasing nationally for the past two decades. While most educators, students, and parents accept these harsh policing and punishment strategies based on the assumption that they keep children safe, Aaron Kupchik argues that we need to think more carefully about how we protect and punish students.
In Homeroom Security, Kupchik shows that these policies lead schools to prioritize the rules instead of students, so that students' real problems—often the very reasons for their misbehavior—get ignored. Based on years of impressive field research, Kupchik demonstrates that the policies we have zealously adopted in schools across the country are the opposite of the strategies that are known to successfully reduce student misbehavior and violence. As a result, contemporary school discipline is often unhelpful, and can be hurtful to students in ways likely to make schools more violent places. Furthermore, those students who are most at-risk of problems in schools and dropping out are the ones who are most affected by these counterproductive policies. Our schools and our students can and should be safe, and Homeroom Security offers real strategies for making them so.
Aaron Kupchik is Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice at the University of Delaware. He is the author of Judging Juveniles: Prosecuting Adolescents in Adult and Juvenile Courts (NYU Press), winner of the 2007 American Society of Ciminology Michael J. Hindelang Award for the Most Outstanding Contribution to Research in Criminology.
"In his compelling, important book about American schools and discipline, Kupchik, a professor of sociology at the University of Delaware, punctures the myth that tighter security measures stemmed from Columbine or any other school shooting."
"Kupchik's writing is meticulous and even-handed, even praising the officers whose methods he strongly disagrees with."
"Few issues are more important to parents than school violence. . . . This is research of prime quality that is readable and rigorous on an issue of extraordinary public importance and interest."

A faint light has begun to shine in recent weeks on the secretive U.S. program of drone strikes and targeted killings.
Members of Congress are making speeches and statements, writing letters to the White House and holding hearings on Capitol Hill. We know the administration is now reviewing some aspects of the program.
The story of the drone program starts after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. When Congress authorized the president to use necessary force against suspected militants, drone strikes on these suspects slowly increased in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen.
When Barack Obama became president, he inherited the targeted-killing program from the Bush administration. Michael Boyle, Obama's counterterrorism adviser at the time, tells NPR's Kelly McEvers that the program remained one of the best options for carrying out certain operations in Pakistan and Yemen.
"You have a situation under which if you contact the Pakistani government to tell them you want to conduct an operation or engage in a strike, you often run across the problem that the information gets out to the target," Boyle says. "Drones appear to give you a very simple solution to this."
The administration's desire to move away from using detention centers, as well as the legal mess that is Guantanamo Bay, has favored the use of drone strikes against suspected terrorists, Boyle says.
"The administration essentially is operating with a 'kill-not-capture' policy," he says. "The problem with this is that you actually don't get intelligence from people you kill."
The number of targeted killings has dropped since last year, and Boyle says it could mean the administration is beginning to rethink the policy and step back from future drone strikes.
The Weight Of Drone Warfare
Although the drones that carry out these targeted killings are called "unmanned vehicles," there's always someone at the controls.
As a former sensor operator for the U.S. Air Force Predator program, 27-year-old Brandon Bryant was one of the people sitting in the pilot's seat.
Bryant originally joined the military to pay off college debt. In 2006 he found himself wearing a flight suit, sitting in a kind of trailer in Las Vegas. He was surrounded by monitors and the low hum of computers and servers.
On his very first sortie as a pilot, Bryant watched from the drone's camera as American soldiers got blown up in Afghanistan. There was nothing he could do.
Bryant's "first shot" came later, as he watched a group of insurgents who had been firing on U.S. troops. He was ordered to fire a missile at a second group of armed men standing away from the others.
"The missile hits, and after the smoke clears there's a crater there and you can see body parts from the people," Bryant says. "[A] guy that was running from the rear to front, his left leg had been taken off above the knee, and I watched him bleed out."
Bryant, who was watching on an infrared camera, says he watched the man's blood rapidly cool to become the same color as the ground. Then, he watched the man he just fired a missile at become the color as the ground he died on.
Though the men he fired on were armed, they weren't using their weapons at the time, Bryant says.
"These guys had no hostile intent," he says. "In Montana, everyone has a gun. These guys could have been local people that had to protect themselves. I think we jumped the gun."
The follow-up report simply stated that there were enemy combatants with confirmed weapons, Bryant says.
Bryant's second shot is another he won't soon forget. On a routine mission, he was ordered to fire a missile at a house with three suspected militants inside. Moments before the missile hit, Bryant says he saw something run around the corner of the building.
"It looked like a small person," he says. "[There] is no doubt in my mind that that was not an adult."
The missile hit, and afterward there was no sign of the person. It was the end of Bryant's shift, and as he walked out into the early morning sun in Nevada, he says he didn't feel distraught like he did after his first shot. He felt numb.
"This was the reality of war," he says. "Good guys can die, bad guys can die and innocents can die."
One day in 2010, Bryant was looking at a wall of top al-Qaida leaders and said he asked himself: "Which one of these guys is going to die today?"
"I stopped myself, and I said that's not me," he says. "I was taught to respect life, even if in the realities of war we have to take it, it should be done with respect. And I wanted this guy to die."
Bryant says he tried to talk to a couple of people about it, but people in the drone community don't talk about the things they've done. So, he remained silent, and then he quit.
"I couldn't do it anymore," he says.
Bryant is now going to school, and receiving treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder. But like other veterans, he's still waiting for his benefits to kick in.
An Everyday Fear
Recently, a young Yemeni man put a face to drone strikes before a Senate hearing. In April, Farea al-Muslimi got some terrible news from his village of Wessab.
"It's a very beautiful village in mountains … suddenly something pops up and bombs form the air," Muslimi tells NPR's McEvers. "It was [a] U.S. strike drone that terrified the farmers and terrified thousands of people."
Muslimi wasn't in the village at the time, but the reaction came to him on his cell phone. He was stormed with messages from villagers wanting to know what was happening.
Witnesses say in all five people died in the attack. The target was suspected militant Hamid al Rhadmi, who Muslimi says was well known in the village. He even spent time with government officials, and Muslimi says it would have been easy to capture Rhadmi.
"I assure you it's easier to capture him than to capture a gang member in New York City," he says. "As someone who was in a great relationship with the government, that man was easy to capture."
Muslimi says people in the village are now angry, scared and wondering if they're next. He says in other Yemeni villages, this anger and fear has led people to join al-Qaida. What the U.S. and the Yemeni government should do now, he says, is focus on capturing these suspects.
"[The United States] has funded and supported … the most elite [counterterrorism] forces in country," he says. "All you need to do is go arrest bad people."
Until then, people in Yemen are starting to assume these drone strikes are a way of life.
"Mothers in the past used to tell their kids, 'Go to sleep or I will call your father,'" Muslimi says. "Now they say, 'Go to sleep or I will call the plane.'"

What pattern matchers we are. Here is a story of a man that systematically experimented to say without out doubt a tree causes headaches; the bay laurel.
"Pierangelo Geppetti, who led the study, heard from a friend about a man who was trimming trees on his property and suddenly experienced a cold sensation in his left nostril and then excruciating pain around his left eye. In his youth, the man had regularly gotten cluster headaches, which are one-sided, intense bouts of exceptional pain that often recur in people who suffer from them.It is interesting how certains smells or inhalents cause headaches. The next time you experience a headache, think back to previous headaches. What was common? Perhaps you had some soup and munched on a bay leaf... or snorted some formaldehyde. Unlike a full-bore cluster headache, the man's symptoms quickly faded, and he forgot about the episode. But a few months later when he was again working with bay laurel, the headache struck again. This prompted him to experiment, intentionally sniffing the crushed leaves of the tree. The intense pain resumed and not long after, Geppetti heard the headache story from their mutual friend. Intrigued, he began investigating the chemical compounds that might be responsible." read the article

The Bible reveals the awesome purpose for human existence. It does so in a carefully presented message that has been recorded by various writers, representing multiple cultures, and written to a specific people. This message is unified and transcends time to speak and apply to us today in the 21st century. But please note—We believe that real, biblical faith is marked by one's actions (James 2:17) more than by doctrinal statements. We're talking about a life transformed by His grace and our faith, which results in actions that display this transformation to others. Bearing forth the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23), having a transformed mind and life (Romans 12:1-2), and the keeping of God's Word (John 14:15, 1 John 2:3-6) are just a few of the characteristics that a transformed life exhibits.

Hello Everyone!
Here is my submission for "Envato's Most Wanted" Vocals and Lyrics.
This positive and encouraging song is called "Seize the Day"
Thanks everyone and good luck!
Hello Everyone,
I would love to hear some advice, tips, and suggestions about something I have been looking into for the past year. I know that many of you have (or had) experience in composing music for TV, film, advertisements, etc.
My open ended question to you guys is this: What is your experience and how did you get started? What was your networking strategy? How can one begin to get their name/work out there?
I am specifically interested in scoring for film and/or TV. I am also in the northern NJ/NYC area.
Thanks everyone. I'd love to hear your responses.
Cedric (SERFmusic)
Agreed 100% :)—it's nothing personal but everything professional
Phil = THE MAN. Way to go my friend! It's only gonna get better—

Hi Cedric, I agree with delgibbons. Just a quick intro, my day job away from AudioJungle (which I am a newbie) is that of a Creative Director for a large health related organization among others and have been doing it for almost 20 years… one of my main responsibilities is to see over and communicate the brand of the company… I think you have a following already that is slowly building and by looking at some of your tracks, you will have many more to come… I say wait it out Cedric as SERFmusic, a brand is developed with patience, consistency and determination, it's not a quick process. I would advise keeping the logo, when you have a following you are comfortable with, then maybe look at an update to the logo, but don't change it so much where your clients get confused. Hope this helps somewhat.
Hang in there as SERFmusic, keep the great tracks coming and market your brand everywhere.Good luck.
I guess it's never a bad thing to be reminded about "Patience" and waiting it out! Thank you Scott for the advice and encouragement!
Thank you Del Gibbons and Dreamsonix for your input!
Hello my fellow authors!
I really want to hear your thoughts!
Right before I officially joined AJ, I decided to go with the brand of Sonic Expressions Royalty Free Music (SERFmusic for short). Long story short, I am taking some time to consider "re-branding" from SERFmusic and transition into just using my own name as a brand, which means a logo change.
I feel that since I am still relatively new and if I am going to change, then I need to do it now as a newbie.
What are your thoughts? Pros? Cons?
Thanks guys!
Awesomeness! Thank you Envato—
Wow Tortoise Tree, moving countries is definitely a good reason to lay off for a while. Thanks for sharing. Sometimes life just happens and we have to turn our attention else where periodically.
MValentino, thanks for the welcome back! I have noticed too that most of my tracks have barely gotten any views since i've stopped uploading with the exception of a few. I also had a videohive collab with my best selling track which has helped me stay afloat!
Hello AJ,
Man, I have been MIA for months now. The latter part of last year brought many unforeseen circumstances which has caused me to shift my focuses elsewhere. Long story short, I am ready to reconnect with my fellow AJ authors again!
Have any of you guys experienced this? Have you any of you guys experienced a time where you couldn't upload for some period of time? How did it affect sales? I'm glad that i've still made some sales, but now i'm ready to step it back up!

It seems that a few posts have dealt with our Anabaptist identity, specifically regarding peacemaking. So I want in.
I know of a Mennonite church that's had a lot of problems in the past decade. They've split in '99, fired their pastor in '02, and now their next pastor is resigning because he feels he can't contend with the warring factions in the church.
Now, clearly, they have some militant members who see "winning" as the ultimate goal. They seem to want the church to be modeled after them. That's a problem that's reared its head every time the church has split or lost its pastor.
But more concerning is the people who believe in peacemaking, yet have expressed their belief by turning a blind eye to the problems, hoping they'll go away. That is not peace; it is denial. And it's sad to see our peace witness lived out in such a way. Jesus taught a "third way" of overcoming hostility, not fight or flight but attacking the problem (not the person) head-on. He taught that we shouldn't use violence, but we should work to expose evil, even when it resides inside of ourselves.
So I want to be part of a new vision for peace. Too often I've been one to stand by quietly, fearful of stirring the waters. So I want to change that. Our new vision needs to shun militancy and passivism. We don't want to destroy our church to win, nor should we sweep problems under the rug. We need the "third way" of peacemaking within our Mennonite churches, so we can tell the world with confidence that peacemaking works.
If you found this post interesting, you might like to read these posts as well:
You made a very good point about peacemaking. It is interesting that there is a very big difference between being pacifist and non-violent. When one is passive they do nothing whereas when one is a non-violent peacemaker he does something about the situation but what he does is not violent. It seems that most Mennonites either believe in non-violence and yet are militant but in a non-physical way (i.e. they fight a lot over issues in the church) or they are pacifist when something goes wrong they do nothing and turn a blind eye. Neither of those ways are what Jesus exemplified He was not a pacifist He did something but what He did was not violent it was peaceful.

I thought this piece from the New York Times travel section was both interesting and hopeful.
Apparently, the concept of "agritourism" is catching on with farmers and tourists - a growing trend as people become more interested in learning where their food comes from. Bunch of farms in Vermont and North Carolina have started to offer tourists the opportunity of staying on the farm and working (if they want to) to help reduce the cost of their stay. Sounds like a smaller scale, slightly more touristy version of the WWOOF (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms) network.

I saw this, too! Reminds me of Dave Chappelle's comment about rich people having a perverse desire for survival living. More power to the farms, though! I certainly don't doubt the value of hands-on learning.

I tried this recipie, hopeful for something unique and tasty, however, I was VERY disappointed. The combination of flavors were overwhelming and NOT pleasing in the slightest.
Dried Plum-Stuffed Pork Loin in Sweet Sherry Sauce (Lomo Relleno)
Becky Luigart-Stayner
Our method of butterflying the pork tenderloins allows the flavors of the sweet dried plum and piquant piquillo peppers to permeate the meat as it cooks. Serve leftover pork over polenta with a tossed green salad for an easy dinner another night.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 3 ounces pork [3 slices] and about 2 tablespoons pan juices)

- 2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, divided
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 12 bite-sized pitted dried plums
- 1/4 cup sliced roasted piquillo peppers
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups vertically sliced Vidalia or other sweet onion
- 4 black peppercorns
- 2 garlic cloves, unpeeled
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/3 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
- 1/3 cup cream sherry
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Preheat oven to 400°.
- Cut 1 pork tenderloin in half lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, other side; open halves, laying the pork flat. Cut each half lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, other side; open halves, laying pork flat. Repeat the procedure with remaining tenderloin. Sprinkle inside of tenderloins with 1 tablespoon parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper, and minced garlic. Top each tenderloin with 6 dried plums and 2 tablespoons piquillo peppers. Roll up each pork tenderloin, jelly-roll fashion, starting at long side. Secure pork at 2-inch intervals with twine; dust with flour.
- Heat oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork; cook 6 minutes on each side or until browned. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of parsley, onion, peppercorns, unpeeled garlic, and bay leaf; sauté 2 minutes. Stir in broth, sherry, and cumin. Wrap the handle of pan with foil, and transfer pan to oven. Cover and bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160° (slightly pink). Transfer pork to a platter; let stand 5 minutes. Cut pork into 3/4-inch-thick slices, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Remove whole garlic cloves; squeeze to extract pulp. Stir into pan juices (discard garlic skins and bay leaf). Serve pan juices with pork.

Magicka Review (PC)
Posted by Christophor Rick (TheSuperGuido), Jan 28, 2011 13:41
Magicka is a satirical action-adventure game set in a rich fantasy world based on Norse mythology. The player assumes the role of a wizard from a sacred order tasked with stopping an evil sorcerer who has thrown the world into turmoil, his foul creations besieging the forces of good.
To do that you must throw together elements for both offensive and defensive spells in order to overcome waves of enemies and survive the fight. There's a lot of buttons to remember but if you've got a good gaming keyboard you'll be able to whip up your own special macros like I did with the Microsoft Sidewinder X6 Keyboard. Quite handy in a pinch. Then again, you might like to play with your Xbox 360 controller, which you can also do. Got friends? You can play four-player local with a keyboard and three controllers. It's like magic! It's certainly like sales magic as the game sold over 30,000 copies in the first day. Great news for independent developers everywhere as it's a $10 game.
Magicka has two modes Campaign and challenge. Campaign is obviously the story mode and you can play with up to three friends or alone. Challenge is sort of a survival mode where you have to fend off wave after wave of various enemies. I can see that being fun with friends. Again three friends local or online can join in the action.
Well I didn't have any local friends to conjure up so I went it solo but it was still quite good fun. The problem is that it's a lot of work to play from time to time. By that I mean that you've got eight buttons just for elements and often to find some good combinations you'll almost fall into a button-mashing strategy. But they give you a sort of spell book to use so that you don't have to remember all of the combinations. However, sometimes, the symbols can be difficult to read. That's when you need to go into the menu and look at the Magicks book. However, stuff you learn in the challenges mode will not translate into the campaign mode and some elements combine to form symbols that, if you haven't seen, will require some trial and error.
