text: 3 June 2013 Source Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. Named for its reddish walls (from the Arabic word for 'red castle', qa'lat al-Hamra), this beautiful palace has seen the rise and fall of many powerful dynasties since the first records of its existence in the early ninth century A.D. In the thirteen century, it became the royal headquarters of the Nasrid dynasty. The palace underwent serious construction in the 1300's and added many buildings to the luxurious palace that is so well known today. After the decline of the Islamic powers in Spain, the Alhambra Palace became a popular seat of power for Catholic monarchs. This ornate palace with its detailed arches and beautiful dome are fortunately pretty well preserved, despite its lack of use for parts of the 1700 and 1800's.

A crash involving two 18-wheelers is to blame for a major traffic backup Wednesday night southbound on the Central Expressway in Dallas.
No one was killed in the crash, but the condition of the driver in the second truck isn't known.
HAZMAT was on the scene cleaning up a fuel spill.
The crash happened around 6:30 p.m., and as of 10 p.m. Wednesday, traffic was backed up more than five miles, all the way to Campbell Road in Richardson.

Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is a new system of treatment using micro amperage current and the resonance effects of frequencies on tissues and conditions to create beneficial changes to symptoms and health.
What is Microcurrent?
Micro amperage current is the same kind of current your body produces on its own within each cell. This is current in millionths of an amp. It is very small; there is not enough current to stimulate sensory nerves so the current flow cannot be felt.
Effects of Microcurrent
Most of the time FSM produces immediate dramatic changes in tissue that make it an indispensable tool in treating pain and many other health concerns.
FSM is different from most other stimulation units. It is sub-sensory (i.e., you cannot feel it) and has profound healing effects. Scientific studies have shown that it reduces inflammation by 62%, increases ATP (energy production) by 500% and protein synthesis by 70%.
In 2010 we treated professional tennis player John Isner after he suffered a severely sprained ankle at the ATP Tennis Tournament. His MRI showed three torn ligaments and a large bone bruise, an injury which normally takes three to six months to heal. We used gentle manipulative treatments, acupuncture and FSM. John then used FSM for a few hours every day. One week later his repeat MRI showed a normal ankle and 12 days later he played in the US Open in New York!
What conditions does FSM treat?
The wide variety of frequencies offered by FSM makes it a versatile tool able to help a variety of clinical conditions. FSM is especially good at treating nerve and muscle pain, inflammation and scar tissue. It works well for back and neck pain due to all causes, sports injuries, bursitis, arthritis, tendinitis and even fibromyalgia.
Some other clinical problems where FSM is helpful:
- ENT: allergies, sinus problems
- Respiratory: bronchitis, asthma, COPD
- GI: colitis, irritable bowel syndrome
- Gynecological: endometriosis, fibroids, pelvic pain
- Urological: kidney stones
- Neurological: shingles, post herpetic neuralgia, neurogenic pain
What to do before and after a treatment?
Make sure to drink at least two cups (16 ounces) of water before and after your treatment!
How FSM is done?
The microcurrent can be applied via special gloves that the practitioner may wear, via damp towels placed over the affected area, or via acupuncture needles.
How many treatments do I need?
It depends how fast you respond. Your practitioner will review this with you at the time of treatment.

It is often noted by pundits that presidential debates don't seem to do much to sway voters on the issues that the candidates actually talk about. That stands to reason: A person need only follow the news or get on the internet to learn where the candidates stand on particular issues. In that respect, debates are redundant.
The real value of the debates is that they offer voters a rare opportunity to see the respective candidates operate under real high-pressure, no-margin-for-error situations. As Herman Cain pointed out in his own inimitable fashion, you do not necessarily need to know who is the president of Uzbekistan. But how you respond to the question can be telling.
Mitt Romney's performance in Wednesday's debate was strong. He was sharp, knowledgeable, confident and never rattled even in the face of attacks. While he had obviously put a lot of effort into preparing, he also came across as somebody for whom this level of focus and dedication is not unusual. He even seemed to be enjoying himself.
President Obama on the other hand often seemed uncertain and at times was clearly struggling for the words. One could practically see the gears crashing in his head as he struggled through some of his answers. Astoundingly, he never brought up Romney's 47 percent gaffe, or Bain Capital or his tax returns despite the fact that those had been the focus of his campaign. He at one point even asked moderator Jim Lehrer if they could please move along to the next topic.
He was also clearly thrown off by the crowd's quietness, being far too used to speaking before friendly, even adoring, throngs.
Liberals hoping that news organization fact-checkers will be able to save Obama are deluding themselves (and not just because the fact-checkers themselves can be unreliable). Obama's real problem was that he even though he is already the president he did not project gravitas. Romney did.
In this Romney was clearly aided by the Republican Party's lengthy primary and his prior failure to win the nomination in 2008. He not only had lots of debate preparation but he is used to facing tough audiences and dealing with setbacks.
Obama has had few such experiences to toughen him up. His only electoral loss was a failure to win a Democratic primary in a House race early in his career. He won his Illinois Senate seat by facing off against Republican loose cannon Alan Keyes, who was hobbled by both being a carpetbagger to the state and insane.
True, Obama had a prolonged primary fight against Hillary Clinton for the presidential nomination in 2008. But they had virtually identical platforms so their debates mostly dwelled on the minutia of their healthcare plans. Meanwhile Clinton was already hobbled by her support for the Iraq war.
The 2008 GOP nominee was the aged John McCain, who had to run during the height of the backlash against President George W. Bush and reacted to the implosion of the markets with a baffling decision to suspend his campaign and return to Congress.
On Wednesday night, for one of the first times in his otherwise charmed political career, Obama faced a determined, skilled and experienced opponent. He didn't handle it well. The question now is how big of a difference this will make.

What is the answer to my question? I cannot find it anywhere. I clicked on the Answer Accepted icon expecting that it meant I would then see my answer. But I don't see anything and can't find an answer. So, I have nothing for my acceptance at this point
Walter Deptula.
Your answer to my still existing question does not address the problem I am having. I am not trying to retrieve a lost combination. I know the combination. But the safe does not open when I use the combination. It does nothing. No lights. No nothing. The answer you gave me was to go to the Sentry Safe Customer Care link
https://www.sentrysafe.com/customerCare/retrieveCombination.aspxBut that link just gives information on how to retrieve a lost combination by sending a registered letter to Sentry. My question was...and is...what do I do to open the safe when the combination is known but the safe is not reacting to it normally. In other words the combination I have always opened the safe before. What have I done wrong? There is a Program button on the bottom of the number pad and a Clear
I don't see a battery location and I don't know where the batteries are? In fact, I did not even know there were any batteries.
Can you give instructions on how and where to find batteries and check them? This is not another question. It is pursuing an answer to my first question. Have combo. Suddenly does not work. What to do to fix Sentry Safe,
Do you need more time with regard to the still unanswered original question to perhapsw contact Sentry Safe for them to supply answers to help in this question.
The numbers on the safe in the lower right corner are:
MSW3517 (I assume that is model number.) And below that number there is the number BD509846* (I assume that is the serial number. I have no idea what the little asterisk at the end means or whether it is part of the serial number.)
I need to attend to other matters which are important, so please reply to me by e-mail with the Answer to my original question.
Walter Deptula
I have just replied to an e-mail from Just Answer which tells me my question has been answered. Their e-mail state, as follows:
Thank you for accepting the answer to your Electronics question.This message confirms that Mike D. (one of the Electronics Experts) has been paid for helping you.Transaction details:
My reply to them by same e-mail reads as follows:
Dear Just Answer, I do not accept the answer and only pressed the button because I could find no answer. I still do not feel my question was answered. Mike D sent me to Sentry Safes via a link to their Customer Care people who were ready to help me recover a lost or forgotten combination. I have the combination. It has always worked. It suddenly did not work yesterday. So, I was not asking the question he answered by sending me to Sentry Safe Customer Care. That just pawned me off to people prepared to tell me something I know....my safe's combination. Please do not infer that my pressing the Accept button meant I was happy with an anwer. There was no answer on the page. I made a logical assumption that I had to press the Accept button to get that answer. If you cannot help me with my true question, please advise. But I will disagree with any charge that you have answered the question asked. Thanks, XXXXX
I will hope for a reply that will address the problem posed and provide an answer that will cause a successful outcome.
Again, thanks.
Please e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Front Row At The White House
My Life and Times
more"I'm still here, still arriving at the White House in the wee hours of the morning, reading the papers and checking the wire, still waiting for the morning briefing, still sitting down to write the first story of the day and still waiting to ask the tough questions."
From the woman who has reported on every president from Kennedy to Clinton for United Press International: a unique glimpse into the White House -- and a telling record of the ever-changing relationship between the presidency and the press.
From her earliest years, Helen Thomas wanted to be a reporter. Raised in Depression-era Detroit, she worked her way to Washington after college and, unlike other women reporters who gave up their jobs to returning veterans, parlayed her copy-aide job at the Washington Daily News into a twelve-year stint as a radio news writer for UPI, covering such beats as the Department of Justice and other federal agencies.
Assigned to the White House press corps in 1961, Thomas was the first woman to close a press conference with "Thank you, Mr. President," and has covered every administration since Kennedy's. Along the way, she was among the pioneers who broke down barriers against women in the national media, becoming the first female president of the White House Correspondents Association, the first female officer of the National Press Club and the first woman member, later president, of the Gridiron Club.
In this revealing memoir, which includes hundreds of anecdotes, insights, observations, and personal details, Thomas looks back at a career spent with presidents at home and abroad, on the ground and in the air. She evaluates the enormous changes that Watergate brought, including diminished press access to the Oval Office, and how they have affected every president since Nixon. Providing a unique view of the past four decades of presidential history, Front Row at the White House offers a seasoned study of the relationship between the chief executive officer and the press -- a relationship that is sometimes uneasy, sometimes playful, yet always integral to democracy.
"Soon enough there will be another president, another first lady, another press secretary and a whole new administration to discover. I'm looking forward to it -- although I'm sure whoever ends up in the Oval Office in a new century may not be so thrilled about the prospect." less

To project the 10 year estimated return of the market, take 1 over the market's current P/E ratio and add the current dividend yield. That gives you a reasonable expectation for the coming decade (1/20 + .02 = 7%). Now, that does not tell you what will happen year to year. Next year it can go up 30% or down 30%, but the 10 year return won't stray far from 7%. Read "Common Sense on Mutual Funds" by John Bogle for the long version. Good luck!
Rotsa ruck with that Curtis. 1/(P/E) is the earnings yield of the company. Basically, the return on YOUR capital if you invest in the company and get 100% of their earnings. Adding the dividend rate to that is plain horse hockey. Bogle talks his own shop. Happy decade.
Hollywood is notoriously difficult on older girls, but as Helen Mirren, Meryl Streep and Susan Sarandon have proved, there is nothing at all at all to fear about becoming seasoned.
Sarandon, 65, has watched herself mature on the big screen for decades. Now starring alongside Jason Segel, Ed Helms and Judy Greer in this month's comedy "Jeff, Who Lives At House," the actress reveals what she's learned about aging gracefully inside thebusin
"The issue that I ultimately told my daughter, which dawned on me at one point, was which you need to really like your imperfections, since that is what makes you you," Sarandon says. "Not that I'd be so eager to jump around with my clothes off at this point in my life, but understanding that your face is you, and whatever your anxieties are, don't take it out on your physique." This is not to say that she's opposed to cosmetic enhancements – within cause.
If a single goes that route, Sarandon says, "Try to keep who you will be…You do not wish to look like you're 20 when you're 60. That is why you might have work on what's on the inside, due to the fact that is certainly what's going to make the distinction."

At 6-foot-2 and 209 pounds, Montae Nicholson, bottom, is built to play safety, and he'll have a decent shot to contribute there right away. But he's also got the athleticism to play at corner and on the offensive side of the ball as well. (Dale G. Young / Detroit News)
East Lansing � For most freshman, preseason camp can be a blur.
From adjusting to a completely new level of competition to simply finding out where the dorms are, sometimes first-year players feel their heads spinning.
For Michigan State�s Montae Nicholson, it�s getting ramped up a bit because the player recruited as a safety is busy not only learning that position as well as cornerback, he�s taking some reps as a receiver.
�The coaches told me defense first and then offense, once I pick up the defense,� Nicholson said after his first practice in full pads this week. �I�m mainly defense right now and trying to learn everything, but I think I�m picking it up pretty well. I�ve talked to (receivers coach Terrence) Samuel and he�s been giving me some routes and some plays, and I've been studying those as well.�
At 6-foot-2 and 209 pounds, Nicholson is built to play safety, and he�ll have a decent shot to contribute there right away. But he�s also got the athleticism to play at corner and on the offensive side of the ball as well.
As a senior at Gateway High in Monroeville, Pa., Nicholson recorded 72 tackles, three interceptions and four fumble recoveries while scoring a pair of touchdowns. As a receiver, he had 41 catches for 810 yards and 11 touchdowns.
He played in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl and is now getting the attention of coach Mark Dantonio, who has singled Nicholson out at couple of times already in the first week of practice.
�He�s an exciting player to watch, very gifted physically,� Dantonio said. �(He has) to sustain, know what to do and play at a high rate of speed every time. Sometimes those things catch up to a young player on the field. That�s our job to try to get him ready by game time, but it�s very early in the process.�
And Nicholson, who considered Florida State and Pittsburgh before deciding to come to Michigan State, is using every resource he can, including his veteran teammates.
�I�m just trying to get coached up and do my best,� he said, �trying to take in everything as it comes. Kurtis Drummond is my roommate, and sometimes I just ask him random questions when I�m looking through the playbook.�
And while Nicholson has shown flashes to play both defense and offense, he also understands it could be special teams that are his ticket to the field as a true freshman.
He�s used to that after returning a pair of kicks for touchdowns in his final season in high school and said he does like to �run and hit people.�
But ultimately, the decision whether he plays and where he plays will be out of his hands. In the meantime, he�ll give them every reason to put him on the field.
�I believe once I get everything down, the technique down,� he said, �it�s on the coaches.�

Aha Help!
Posted 10 June 2013 - 01:50 PM
I've read about all the success that people are having with aha and reducing the red marks. I am not on the regime or any form of it but I went ahead and ordered Dans AHA+ because reading reviews a lot of people say his is the best they've used. I was looking for advice on how much to use and basically any tips AHA users have out there. I'm looking forward to using it and I should be getting it in a couple days and I need all the tips I can get.
Posted 10 June 2013 - 09:44 PM
use daily sunscreen....
to be honest...if you can handle it, i would use a product that is only aha.
what you are getting is moisturizer with a bit of aha. its okay if you are using other stuff and you dont wanna risk irritating your skin, but given you are not using anything else i would get something that its "pure aha".
ohhh...and use it at night. (still ..you should use sunscreen in the am)

ohhh...and use it at night. (still ..you should use sunscreen in the am)
I am currently using a daily am moisturizer with 30 SPF will that be good enough? I will use it at night time for sure, that was my pain anyways. What aha products do you recommend maybe after my skin is used to this product I can ramp it up to a full aha.
Also do I put it on everywhere or just the areas with the hyper pigmentation? And is it smart to spot treat with it?
Thanks for the reply!
Posted 11 June 2013 - 01:11 AM
aha is one of those things that i can not recommend a specific product since i have only used one aha product
perhaps you might want to take a look at "paulas choice"....overall they have a good quality line
Keep in mind, when using aha's in general that percentage matters but pH also matters a lot.
Dan's aha+ is ph 4.0
paulas choice ph is 3.5-3.8
I would recommend however, for you to get peels.
These start at 20% or so, and get higher and higher as you adjust to it. These are something you may do once a month, but after 3-5 you will see dramatic improvements. (you can do them yourself, or you can go to an esthetician)
I recomend it simply becuase you dont appear to be dealing with active acne (you are not using any topical products)
Once I can say im done breaking out, I will get these.
Read the following over....I was answering to some person asking how to deal with hyper pigmentation and scars.
30SPF is good enough, but 50SPF i would say its the ideal one.
In fact....even if you dont use aha.....using sunscreen is so important to allow your redmarks to fade. Thast why this is imperative. Sun rays are your worst enemy when it comes to fading red marks.
Everywhere or spot treat I would say is on a case by case basis.
Since your concern are red marks then I would spot treat, and keep an eye on it. If things look uneven, then I would start applying everywhere, but I highly doubt that will happen, and the less you stress ur skin the better. So yes. Definitely start with a simpler spot treating strategy

I've heard Paula's choice does have great AHA. I heard Dans was great too. Dans was more affordable as well. What is the ideal PH level to look for. Is Dans not a good level?
Posted 12 June 2013 - 04:09 PM
Yeah, I know what you mean. I think the best sunscreen is the one you feel comfortable using everyday.
I feel physical based sunscreens are the best for us in terms of high spf, and low probability of breaking us out / low irritation. But again, everyone is different.
Exfoliation with aha's and bha is ineffective at ph higher than 4. So I feel dans will provide you some, but its borderline. However, the less exfoliation, the less irritation as well. So its worth starting with it, plus it moisturizes , so I wont say its all bad.
In summary a pH of 3.0 - 4.0 is the right minimum level for a daily use. Just keep ph values in mind when comparing products. Thats what I was trying to share with you
'Garden of wisdom' and 'diana yvonne' appear to offer some good affordable products with low ph's. I say appear since I have not used them. I did research on this stuff some time ago, but didnt move forward because as always, its not a one size fits all, and it was no longer my best route.
Here is a link if you wanna read more on ph levels:

Your welcome.
I forgot to give the values for the two products:
dans: 4.0
paulas choice: 3.5-3.8

CHICAGO, IL - APRIL 24: Troy Brouwer #22 of the Chicago Blackhawks battles for the puck with Henrik Sedin #33 and Aleander Edler #23 of the Vancouver Canucks in Game Six of the Western Conference Quarterfinals during the 2011 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs at the United Center on April 24, 2011 in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images)
The Blackhawks pulled off a most difficult feat, Sunday, when Ben Smith scored on a rebound late in overtime of a pivotal 3-2 playoff game.
Chicago drew even in the with a Canucks team that led the series 3-0. The defending Stanley Cup champs now have a chance to steal one more victory from the top-seeded team from Vancouver and move on to round two.
Smith, a rookie, followed in a long, hard shot from the point by teammate Niklas Hjalmarsson that bounced off goalie Roberto Luongo.
Luongo didn't start the game but was called upon in the third period when Cory Schneider had to be helped off the ice when he was injured as he tried to stop Michael Frolik's penalty shot that tied it at 3.
Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault said after Chicago's 5-0 victory in Game 5 when Luongo was pulled for a second straight game that Luongo would remain the starter.
Luongo has struggled at times in his career against the Blackhawks, but he shut out Chicago in the opener of the series with 32 saves and went 38-15-7 with a 2.11 goals-against average in the regular season. But the previous two games the Hawks punished him.
Schneider made his first career playoff start and appeared in his third postseason game overall. He relieved Luongo in Games 4 and 5.
Besides Smith and Frolik, Bryan Bickell and Dave Bolland -- on sweet pass by Patrick Kane -- scored.
Game 7 is Tuesday night in Vancouver.

I love Mango salsa but I've never made it before. This recipe is a great mix and exactly how it should taste. I wanted to eat the whole bowl.
Mango Salsa
Randy Mayor; Jan Gautro
Tass and Bruce first tasted fresh mango more than 20 years ago in Mexico, where they also ate fiery salsa that brought tears to their eyes. Tass didn't combine the two ingredients until years later. Serve with grilled chicken, fish, or baked tortilla chips.

Comments about Go Smile Double Action Whitening System - 12 Days:
First time ordering GoSmle. Love their toothpastes. These whitening ampules are cardboard and all the gel inside was hard and dried out. No amount of massaging the tube would produce any serum/gel. Tried a few in the box. Throwing them out.

Comments about Go Smile Double Action Whitening System - 12 Days:
I''m an avid coffee drinker and I'm embarrassed to say two of my teeth were starting to look brownish. I bought the 6 day treatment and, although it made a difference, it was slight.
This treatment showed results faster and more evident. My teeth aren't paper white but I can see a difference, cream instead of brownish
I felt it also made my teeth slightly sensitive unlike the other one.

I feel so sad.
Come listen in, closely.
24, Female from Southern California
I went on a couple of dates with this guy named Nick. He seemed pretty cool. He's punk, rents his own house and adopted this pitbull mix. Last Saturday I went to his house and hung out. While we were hanging out I realized he was a person that I couldn't be serious about (mostly because I just got out of a serious relationship and anything serious doesn't sound appealing).
Anyways, I just wanted to enjoy myself. So we both got a little drunk and had sex. Throughout the night he kept telling how much he liked me and wanted to be with me. I was just like "uhhhh, yeah, me too!" (not really). Sort of like I said whatever cause I just wanted to get in his pants. We had a pretty fun night. The next morning he had work so I was at his house until he got back. It was a little weird when he got back because he wasn't as social. I assumed it was just because we both got a few hours of sleep. Moving on, after I left, he never called or texted me.
At that point I couldn't understand my feelings. I didn't want anything real with this person, yet I yearned his attention. After a few days I texted him and asked him if he still liked me. Mind you, this guy would text every day, all day. Nope, no response. Throughout the week he sent me a couple of texts saying he was busy and at work. I never responded back to those vague texts until today. I told him to have a nice a life.
I'm just so perplexed by my feelings. I'm not sure if I'm sad because I'll miss the attention. Or if I'm sad because I trusted him to not be a douchebag asshole. He could have at least gave me an explanation. I told myself I wont date anyone again for awhile. Until I learn how to be myself. But after that situation I just find it hard to pick out the real ones, from the douchebags!
I'm so happy right now! I started my period. That was a terrifying week! Phew. It's amazing how accurate that menstruation app is on my phone. It's been 100% accurate for over a year now. It's also good to know that my cycle is normal. :D
My mom literally spends all day on Facebook or the Internet. I'd rather spend time with my bro and dad in the garage watching them fix cars. Annoying.
All of my goals that I've had for the past few years are actually coming true these past couple of months. If things go as planned I'm hoping to buy a car this weekend. I'm hoping to move out in 2-3 weeks.
Oh yeah, and I got promoted today to as a shift supervisor. :-)

Due to inclement weather Friday, the series will consist of a doubleheader Saturday (3 p.m.) and one game Sunday (1 p.m.).
This will mark the first series for the Scarlet Knights with Joe Litterio serving officially as the head coach. He had been on the Rutgers staff for the last two seasons, being the head coach at Wagner from 2000-11.
Game 5: Saturday, February 22
First Pitch: 3 p.m.

Rutgers Starter: RHP Kevin Baxter (0-0, 0.00)
Jacksonville Starter: RHP Zach Gordon (0-2, 8.44)
Live Stats: Link
Live Audio: Link
After starting the season with four defeats at FIU, Rutgers (0-4) looks to rebound against Jacksonville. The Scarlet Knights had 13 different players make their collegiate debut in the series, including a nation-leading nine freshmen pitchers (three redshirts) used. Both sophomore Howie Brey (Middletown, N.J.) and redshirt freshman Kevin Baxter (Waterford, N.J.) went five innings in their first career starts against the Panthers. Redshirt freshman Kyle Driscoll (Toms River, N.J.), who tossed four innings of relief last week, will make his first career start in the middle game of the series.
At the plate, freshman Mike Carter (Bloomfield, N.J.) picked up a hit in every game, with senior Lou Clemente (Union, N.J.) reaching base at a .636 clip from the designated hitter spot. Senior Brian O'Grady (Warminster, Pa.) had a career day in the first game of the season, going 4-for-5 with a three-run home run. Additionally, freshman Christian Campbell (Sayreville, N.J.) led Rutgers in the series finale with four quality at bats in as many trips, recording two singles, a sacrifice fly and a hit by pitch.
The Dolphins (1-3), under the direction of first-year head coach Tim Montez, went 17-39 last season and 8-19 in the Atlantic Sun Conference. The team took one game against No. 19 TCU in a road series to start year before falling to No. 5 Florida State in its home opener Tuesday.

This set will mark the first weekend series between RU and JU, but the programs have met twice previously. The Dolphins took the first meeting in 1968, 1-0, with the Scarlet Knights winning an NCAA Regional elimination game in Tallahassee, Fla., 8-5.
The Scarlet Knights also started the 2011 season with back-to-back weekends in the Sunshine State to start the year.
Rutgers will travel to the state of Virginia next weekend to take on Old Dominion for a three-game series.

5 Goody Bag Toys You Can Feel Good About Giving
It's birthday season at my house, and while planning the goody bags is one of my absolute favorite party jobs, every year it's a bit of a challenge to fill them with cute toys that aren't just plastic landfill fodder. It's a fun challenge, mind you, but a challenge nonetheless. As always, Etsy comes to the rescue.
Here are a few toys that caught my eye this season:
- Elephant crayons ($5 for a set of three) – Each of these adorable pachyderms is 3" in diameter. If you're not partial to elephants, this seller carries several other crayon shapes, or you can do a quick search on Etsy for more handmade molded crayons, shaped like everything from stars to Transformers.
- Handmade wooden tops ($3.50 each) – Who doesn't love a top? These gorgeous little spinners are guaranteed to provide plenty of entertainment for all ages.
- Wooden mini-vehicles ($12 for a set of 12) – I seriously love these little handmade vehicles, which range in size from 2-1/2 to 4-1/2 inches long. Kids can leave them as is, or paint or color them as a party activity.
- Mini crayon roll-up ($2.50) – Shown here in Blue Disco Dot pattern, the seller also makes these in other colors.
- Bitty balls ($8 for a set of 8) – Just the right size for a child's hand, these colorful felted balls are made of 100 percent wool with an organic wool batting core.
What are your go-to ideas for goody bags?
27 Comments
Love the post! Glad to know I'm not the only one who hates the bag of plastic junk from China! I have been known to spend hours online trying to find the best items for my goody bags. A great site to check out is http://www.greenpartygoods.com/ and I also love this site: http://www.stubbypencilstudio.com/. And I love the idea of personalized coloring books http://www.frecklebox.com/personalized-coloring-books.htm and lastly Creative Kid Stuff has great things too. http://www.creativekidstuff.com/. I've also used Etsy for this purpose too! Thanks!
jhassell - i just placed an order from frecklebox.com -- thanks for the great information!
I did reusable cotton bags ($1 each), organic granola bars, and finger puppets, inside of a reusable tin bucket. And then almost everyone forgot to take the party favors. That's what I could really use tips on... how to get guests to actually TAKE THEM. This is the second time I've put effort into adorable favors and almost no one ended up with one... help!
Hi - I've used matchbox cars (at least they aren't plastic and they are priced really reasonable). Another idea is the I Can Read books related to the theme (we did a firetruck theme) and if I recall correctly, the books were about $3 each.
This weekend for the boys' superhero party we are doing capes and a comic book.
And, yes, I LOVE etsy. That's where I got the invites, some of the decorations, the capes, etc.
i am with honeyhaze on this one. if the kids remember the goody bag then they are going home.but most parents try to escape with out them. is it really nessissary to even do goodie bags?
first yr of goody bags ppl complained i put too much candy. second year ppl complained it was only more junk to take home and add to the clutter. RUDE! why are we doing goodie bags anyway. i will still do them and hopefully get it right. the tops are super cool.
jackied302, we've always done them because I want my kids to know that, even on their birthdays, gift-giving is a two-way street. This year, we're doing a big party and it's our first time attempting a "no gifts" rule, so the goody bags are going to be the only gifts anyone receives.
That said, we don't go over the top. One or two fun good-quality toys, a small portion of some kind of novelty candy (like fizz candies or pop rocks), and maybe some stickers – that's it. In previous years, we've given kazoos (the real metal ones), Hot Wheels, bubble containers, sidewalk chalk, etc. We keep them by the front door and hand them out as people leave. So far, no complaints!
You know we never got goody bags when we were kids and we still had a blast at parties! And we never bought gifts that were over 10$ So maybe we're becoming a little excessive? Just a thought. I'm not saying I don't do goody bags. I love goody bags :o) But I do feel a little guilty after the party and think maybe it's unnecesary? After all the kids have such a fun time playing games and eating cake and candy that they don't even look for it...until it becomes a habit that is. :o(
My friend had a "recycled gift" party once that I thought was neat, everyone had to bring a slightly used book or toy for her kid.
I just started thinking up the theme for my sons 2nd birthday party and I have to say the gift-bags are my favorite!
Last year we did a monkey theme and the goody bags we're small tote bags that I let Phoenix fingerpaint. Inside we filled with granola bars, Curious George storybooks on CD, Curious George coloring book, and monkey plates and cups I found at the dollar store.
This year we are doing a Nemo theme and the ideas I have so far are freezer paper stenciled shirts with Nemo on them. Goldfish crackers and small pet goldfish.
Between the cake and the goody bags I could plan parties every day!
I say keep it simple when it comes to favours. This year I'm planning a mermaid swim party for my daughter (turning 5) so all the mermaid princesses will go home with a tiara & a small treat - either shaped sugar cookies or cello packaged "sea foam" AKA homemade sponge toffee. Already my children have been the recipients of too many cheap toys from the dollar store that end up getting lost under the sofa or tossed. Another idea I would like to share: last year I bought blank primed art canvases for the children - they painted as a party activity and then took their artwork home. The parents love this idea!
I generally don't like favors or goody bags. And I am one of those parents who has tried to "forget" to grab it at the end of the party, specially when it's plastic or has a TV character on it.
So for my son's first birthday party I simply decorated take home boxes with a print out that said, "Thank you for sharing my special day!" and told guests to pack them full of the left over treats from the dessert buffet. That way very few left overs came home with us and I knew the guests would probably actually use/eat the "favors".
I usually really do not like to get food in the goodie bags, it is usually stuff that we do not really eat so we end up getting rid of it. Same with most of the little plastic toys. For my sons last birthday we did coloring books, crayons, stickers, and one little toy. He is only 2 so it is kind of a challenge to find lttle inexpensive things that are good for his age group.
a small pot and packets of seeds, fruit bars or a raison box I have put in homemade cookies and cupcakes they are a bigger bang for your buck, coloring in (photocopied from a national geographic printout that I found online) and stickers. Our playgroup decided that rather then everyone bringing in christmas gifts at the party all the parents would give $10 and each child would receive a gift bag, I got a 15 piece tub of viking chubbies on sale and divided them up, they also each got a set of 3 small cardboard toddler books and a soft toy from ikea which had no choking hazard parts (like button eyes) I sourced the items with strict quality control in mind as the median age was 1-2 years and within budget. ikea have some great high quality but well priced things worth a look if you have a local. hair clips for an older girls party. bubbles. I could go on....
@sreed - did the same! great idea, and meaningful & useful too.
@jackied301 - shame parents complained. in my experience, parents always love goody bags that have had some thought put into them, and that are a little outside-the-box. Especially if the goody bags and their contents are useful and re-usable. Have done crayons, blank paper pads, cotton bags, spoons dipped in chocolate to stir in hot milk, ugly dolls. Also did plate decoration, which was a hit.
I also firmly believe that it is a nice way for the little host to say thank you to his/her guests, and to realise that kind actions beget kind actions.
Thank you cards are also mandatory in this household. If possible with a party snap of the guest and the birthday boy/girl.
thanks for the great ideas. i will keep trying. i did omit most candy and try to put useable goodies in them. like pencils and apple sauce. i really enjoy putting together goodie bags, so i definatly will keep it up.
One of the best goodie bag ideas I've seen was just a tub of sidewalk chalk with each child's name painted on the lid. It couldn't have cost more than $3-5 per tub, but it fit in perfectly with the party theme and no child (or parent!) was disappointed.
I had my son's 3rd birthday party today. The theme was dinosaurs and pretending to be a paleontologist. The activity was digging for dinosaur skeletons and eggs in our sandbox and it was a big hit. Each kid got a beach pail and matching tools. In each bucket was a magnifying glass, the tools, and an animal shaped measuring tape. The kids each also got a plastic safari hat and got to keep any of the eggs or skeletons they dug up.
Such a great post. I am so tired of getting bags of plastic crap from kids' parties. My favorite party favor for kids is a hand-picked CD of kids' music. I just did a post on it (I use this idea for baby gifts, too), so you can see some of our choices:
Homemade play dough is all natural, fun and not at all expensive. I invited a few friends over the night before the party and we made a big pot of play dough (flour, water, salt and cream of tartar.) Then I bought a package of six all natural fruit and plant extract powders which we used to color the dough. The colors were basil green, pomegranate, lemon verbena, berry blue, plum purple, and tangerine. We had cute little tubs to put them in and fun labels with the color names. Each kid got one and we had extra's out at the party to play with:) The parents loved the texture and wanted some too - one friend even complimented that my homemade dough lasted longer than the expensive organic play dough she had bought her son for Christmas!
Elorraine-we made homemade play dough for my son's birthday party yesterday. I rolled it into a generous ball and put it inside of a cellophane bag with a cute tag. Some parents asked if they could take two, so I would say it was a hit. I used the non-toxic version using sugar-free jello and it looks and smells great!
How about an age appropriate book from scholastic? They can be as low as $1-3 dollars a piece, but worth every penny. For one of my children's parties, we handed out harmonicas in small boxes. People tell me they still have them and how the kids often pick them up to play them. We've also done the wrapped cookies, which is great because the kids eat them and there aren't little plastic toys left all over the house. We also often have a craft that is themed with the party for the kids to decorate and take home. It also helps bring the kids to the table if they are playing for dinner or dessert. (like shields for a knights party.)
For my son's 3-year-old birthday, we gave out $1 bubble tubes. All were taken - kids love bubbles, and I don't think parents hate them :-) This was the first "friend party" I had done for my son - and being only 2, he had only been to a handful of other parties - and I didn't even THINK about doing a favor until my MIL said "aren't you going to hand out favors?!!"
This year, he wants a strawberry picking party, which I think is cute and I'm really excited. I'm planning on the favors being their bucket of strawberries - though I might spring for real metal buckets, rather than the giant styrofoam cups that the fields use.
Actually...any good sources for medium-sized (maybe holds 2 cups) metal buckets??
Like favors at weddings, birthday goody bags aren't necessary. BUT if you're going to do them, might as well have some fun!
It's funny you said crayons and wooden tops because those are two things that went into our goody bags too:
(scroll a bit)
I never do bags but I do put out a bowl of toys so that the child can pick something they like. No crap and it has to be something I would actually buy for my kid. Schliech animals, instruments, playdough, markers, little wooden cars, etc. It is always funny watching the parents trying to steer their kids away from the cheaper items towards the more expensive items.
I get coupons for Scholastic books and put them in, playdough now comes in wonderful little tins that are SO handy and inexpensive as well. Organic fruit bars and snacks..crayons and craft items..the list is endless!
At my son's last birthday the goody bags contained the homemade slime and playdough that each kid made (in a paper take out soup container). No plastic, no waste and all natural. The kids all loved doing the crafts, and the parents loved that they didn't have more plastic crap to toss out.
I buy a pack of little notepads in the party aisle of Target, usually 6 to a bag; and a bunch of little packets of crayons. Each child gets a notepad, pack of crayons, and maybe a temporary tattoo. I avoid candy and junk toys and try to include something the child and mom will appreciate. I used plastic drinking cups as the "bag" one year. At least it is something the child can use and is practical. One trend I'm seeing is those scholastic reader books that are very inexpensive.

There was a time in my life where I decided "Hey! I think I want blonde hair!"
When I told my stylist, she looked at me funny and said it would be a good idea to add blondISH highlights and gradually lighten it. I wasn't having that, I was like "highlights? Hell naw. BLEACH IT BLONDE. NOW!"
She let it be known that she was "against it" and I let it be known that I didn't care because I wanted to be blonde.
A few hours of processing later, I was, um, a "blonde." Only, not really, because I was "an orangish."
I immediately drove to my sister's house to show her and she was all "THAT LOOKS HORRIBLE." Her main "issue" with it was that it wasn't at all blonde, but kinda orange, much like the color of my skin, which meant that my skin and hair all kind of blended together making me look like a giant stick o' bronzer.
My sister has an incredibly awesome sense of style and I trust and value her opinion when it comes to matters of hair/fashion. But, I didn't want to believe her about this because I wanted to be a freakin' blonde and was in what The People like to call "major denial."
Later that day, when I was outside watering the grass, my neighbor -who happened to be the ceraaziest, most hilarious person I've ever had the pleasure of living next door to- drove by and looked at me in a way that led me to believe she did NOT like "The Blonde."
She walked over and in her crazy way of talking said "What the fuck did you do to your hair? Your hair matches your skin and you look all one color and it's creeping me out, woman."
I was still in denial, even though two people had just given me not so positive feedback about The Blonde. Because in my heart, I wanted to believe that I looked "hot" and that "Blonde was my color."
Why? I do not know. But, looking at a bunch of old pictures that I found last night, I realise just HOW RIGHT they were and how BAD IT LOOKED (and these pictures were AFTER I agreed to let myi stylist "weave in a little brown". So, it was worse.) and how desperately I wanted to believe that I could pull of blonde hair.
"Go Carrot. It's your birthday. We're gonna party like it's your birthday".
"Not only do I look good blonde, but I knows how to dance. RESPECT The Fingah Snap, bitches!".
Bronzed Bootay. Ahhhhhh yeaah.

It is one of the most ancient Buddhist sites in Tibet.
Pabonka Hermitage is an anceint retreat founded by Songts?n Gampo in the 7th century. Part of Sera Monastery, it is about 8 kilometres from Lhasa in the Nyang bran Valley on the side of Mount Parasol. Pabonka Hermitage is the starting point for the "Sixth-Month Fourth-Day" (Drug pa tshe bzhi) of the Sera Mountain Circumambulation Circuit (Se ra'i ri 'khor) pilgrimage.
Pobanka means "on the top of a giant rock" in Tibetan language. It got its name due to its construction on a giant rock. It is said that it was built even earlier than the Potala Palace and Jokhang Monastery. Several of famous Tibetan kings and monks used to meditate there in different times, and Pabonka is said to be the place where Tibetan Alphabets were created. Over the many years of history, Pobanka undergone many times of destroy and repair. Nowadays the former glory of the high-rise palace has gone, and Pabonka has turned into a medium temple with occasional visits. There only remain a three-story rock building standing on the rock and a few others around the rock.
Pobanka Hermitage also serves as a base for further travel for some adventurers. It is about one and a half hours hike from Pobanka Hermitage to Sera Monastery. This is a nice stretch of hiking, and is quoted to be "a sun-filled, energizing hike is only the prelude to lively monk debates outside of the city". Nearby places you can hike to are Tashi Choling Hermitage (about 30 minutes) and Chupsang Nunnery (about one hour).

Blizz could make it so you can have one lvl 80 pre-made character per server. If you love raid tanking on your DK or Warrior and decide you want to try your hand at healing, it takes a really long time to level from 1-85 and get geared well enough to do anything in current content, especially if you're still enjoying the content on your main(s). This would make high-end content more accessible to new players, while preserving the integrity of older content. It sucks to buy expansions based on videos of all kinds of cool T11-T13 raids, only to discover you can't even sniff at any of them for months unless you live and breathe content that was released 7 years ago.
It would remove a lot of demand in the account sale market, while allowing players to buy their way to multiple max-level characters on the same realm by using the server-transfer feature for new level 80s. Basically it could take money out of the "black market" of account selling and put it into Blizzard's pocket, while still letting players level their way through Cataclysm content (personally, I would freeze XP and do more heroic LK dungeons for a while, as they are pretty awesome).

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) – Have you ever wanted to kick back with a few drinks on New Year's Eve but dread the inevitable hangover?
There's always a running list of the facts and fiction behind common hangover remedies from aspirin to black coffee.
Even the best hangover cure will do little if you down a whole case of champagne while ringing in 2014.
The stage is set at Fourth Street Live with plenty of balloons and every restaurant and bar in town ready for the party.
WHAS11 took to the streets of Louisville to find out what common cures are out there. Question is, do they work?
Here's where we separate fact from fiction.
First, you always hear take aspirin before going to bed.
"You definitely have to take some ibuprofen, bunch of water. Then in the morning Gatorade and Airborne," partygoer Rachel Ellerby said.
This advice is mostly true. Drinking too much alcohol can trigger an inflammatory immune response in the body, causing aches and pains. Downing an aspirin or ibuprofen can help lessen that response.
Then there's -- hair of the dog
"Bloody Mary. That for some reason helps me -- hair of the Dog," says Gina Hill
Experts say this one is fiction.
Because alcohol is a diuretic, doctors say, having a spiked coffee or a breakfast beer when hung over can make you feel even lousier because you become more dehydrated.
Then there is thing one – a greasy breakfast to soothe an upset stomach.
"Coca Cola and a pizza help pretty well. Something greasy to soak up what's left over," partygoer Josh Klein said.
This one is partly true.
Too much alcohol can both irritate the stomach lining and lower blood sugar, meaning you might end up both nauseous and in need of a snack after a big night out.
Drink plenty of water.
"Plenty of water -- yeah plenty of water. Definitely water," says Shayne and Gina Hill said.
This one is true. It might not be a total cure-all, but drinking water or other hydrating liquids will go a long way in helping you get over a hangover.
There is one more almost foolproof way to get over most hangovers – sleep.
Hangovers usually wear off in about 24 hours, so taking a long nap might be the best way to survive a terrible hangover on the first day of the new year.
