One of the few upsides of a manned mission to Mars is that we can send all the infrastructure there before the trigger is pulled to lift any humans off of Earth. We can make sure it arrives safely, and works, rather than having to send it on the same trip as the astronauts. Even if the solar cells, ice purifiers, and hydroponics work at a rate too slow to keep up with human consumption, they could be designed to operate when noone is there, to stockpile enough resources to last the duration of a human visit. Food silos, batteries, water tanks, and a habitat can be sent and filled up beforehand. Assuming everything but the seeds were sterilized, I wonder if the resultant food could be preserved indefinitely on Mars; ya know, until the humans show up and spread their microbiome everywhere.
If a colony is dependent on regular shipments of fissile material, that could cause problems, particularly if a shipment blows up/gets its launch delayed, or if the colony desires independence. Hawking et al suggest that we should get a Mars colony in part so that we wouldn't be doomed by a third world war; however, if said colony belonged to one of the major world powers, it's much more likely to be targeted. China already has tested weapons that can destroy satellites, I wouldn't put it past them to use a weapon that would destroy their enemy's Mars colony.
What military value would a civilian Mars colony have to expend the huge resources necessary to destroy it?
If robotics were sufficiently advanced to build greenhouses and farm food on Mars, what would the purpose of sending humans?
Robots already have sufficient complexity to do that job. To be fair, we already have arguments over whether we should send humans, so you may have a point there. I, for one, would like to send robots and build a base with them before I set foot on the planet, if I were making the plans. I'd much rather have a nice place to sleep all set up for me than have to sleep in my car, so to speak.
Seriously, what part of the job of building a greenhouse and growing crops do we imagine a robot can't do? Especially gi
If robotics were sufficiently advanced to build greenhouses and farm food on Mars, what would the purpose of sending humans? Surely, for that level of complexity, we could skip the complex building of habitats and just send a robot to do {whatever} the task that have in mind for humans.
Get your girlfriend/wife a really good vibrator then re-think that question.
It will never happen. At least not for a very very very long time. We have many places on earth that are not possible to be independent right now that are magnitudes easier and more habitable.
If they really want to play around, they should try it here on earth first as a proof of concept, preferably long term. The whole failed biodome experiment being a good example. Heck, put in the the Arctic or Antarctic and see how it fairs, or even just a very harsh remote region. Probably also be magnitudes cheaper to
A Mars colony doesn't have to be a closed system like BioDome (failed) or the Soviet equivalent BIOS-3 (successful). Mars has a bunch of natural resources that make it less challenging, or more accurately challenging in a different way, than living in space.
I don't do this often, but noone isn't a word. I keep seeing people who don't understand how spellcheck works. Even autocorrect tries to fix it.
It's a perfectly cromulent word. Seriously though, I like how it looks more than the technically-correct usages, which irk me as much as seeing 'him/her'.
Why would NASA put effort into Uranium reactors when Thorium is so much more promising?
It doesn't get more "do-over" than an entire fucking planet. If you really must do something nuclear on it, why use the old shit?
Uranium works, has been demonstrated in space many times, and has a bunch of people who understand reactor design. Thoriuem is a pie in the sky idea that hasn't been demonstrated in proudction, hasn't been used commercially, and doesn't have any experts in reactor design. Oh yeah, its harder to find, extract, process, enrich, use and dispose of, and its resistance to nuclear meltdown doesn't have the same value in space.
NASA isn't a leader (anymore), they ride on the coat-tails of industry and the military. There has been trillions of dollars of development in the Uranium infrastructure, replicating that for Thorium would be... less efficient than using the existing systems.
Why would NASA put effort into Uranium reactors when Thorium is so much more promising? It doesn't get more "do-over" than an entire fucking planet.
Because thorium designs have to be developed and proven out on Earth first. The ORNL work was just a proof of concept, not an operating commercial reactor.
... for a lot of power situations, not just space. However the 60s CND hippie generation have managed to turn it into a bogieman (not helped of course by Chernobyl caused by a lack of training and maintenance on a reactor that was a poor design to start with). Sadly the younger generation seems to have swallowed this meme wholesale without actually checking the facts (eg France has generated around 50% of its power from nuclear without serious incident since the 1960s). So good luck to Nasa getting nuclear
The bigger issue isn't the possibility of and potential costs of nuclear incidents. Rather, it is nuclear waste management.
As a power source it's competitive if you only factor in power production and rudimentary waste management like we're doing now. But that completely falls apart if you consider the future costs of storing the nuclear waste over hundreds of thousands or millions of years.
Where do you think Uranium comes from in the first place, the magic nuclear tree? It comes out of the ground. There is zero reason not to put the spent fuel back into it.
You need to enrich the stuff for it to be useful in a reactor (or for that matter, a weapon). You can't just shove the result back into the ground and expect it to be as benign as the naturally occurring stuff. Not to mention Plutonium and other nuclear waste, which you don't want anywhere near a water supply.
Who's factoring in the waste management costs of coal? Fly ash piles, atmospheric distribution of mercury and other fun stuff, destruction of landscapes for strip mines... someday people will tally up these costs and probably establish that fossil fuels are a zero-sum game, when you actually value the entire planet.
Half-life, you surely heard of that. There is no need to store any nuclear waste for hundreds of thousands or millions of years.
"Nuclear waste" is a bit of a misnomer, from what I understand a VAST majority (I think like 95%) of what we term as nuclear waste is still perfectly usable fuel, it is simply contaminated with highly radioactive components. Those components can be removed via reprocessing, which most countries do. Once that is done the actual waste is far more compact and radioactive for far less time. The US however sabotaged its own reprocessing program by banning it back in the 70s, and then wrapping the industry in
The bigger issue... is nuclear waste management.
Your assumption that a nuclear waste management solution today must be essentially eternally effective is incorrect. Realistically, we only need an interim solution to contain nuclear waste until a foreseeable time when technology, resources, and knowledge advances to handle the waste more effectively. There are similar waste management examples in use too.... for example lead based paint and asbestos in buildings is dangerous to occupants, but an acceptable remedy is sealing/encapsulating it in the buildin
Nice straw man you've got there. Did it take long to build?
You can't do anything significant and public without idiots demonstrating at the gates.
What matters is whether or not the politicians who control the budget can (and choose to) hold office without placating them.
"However the 60s CND hippie generation have managed to turn it into a bogieman (not helped of course by Chernobyl..."
But the most wondrous thing about space from a human culture standpoint is that there are no liberals up there to prevent us from diverting asteroids, operating nuclear reactors, and using bioengineering to modify humanity itself for improved survival in non-terrestrial environments.
We already have relatively small pressurized water reactors. It seems like a reactor that could power a submarine would be the right size for a small colony of people. Is that still too physically large, or would the problem be the quantity of water/coolant required for operation? Maybe they could figure out a way to include the human waste processing function in the reactor system? i.e. cool the reactor by peeing on it.
We already have relatively small pressurized water reactors.
Not a grand idea when you cannot have people monitoring it onsite 24/7 who are able to effect repairs. Requires high pressure piping and containment (heavy and $$) which increases the problems if there is a loss of coolant incident (not a trivial consideration). Lots of problematic failure modes not easily reconciled to space travel. Plus there is the fact that you need water which Mars has but not in abundance or easily accessible. You don't want to ship the water there
It seems like a reactor that could power a submarine would be the right size for a small colony of people.
Water as a coolant works great on
It's not the man; it's the paperwork. Literally half of the cost of building a new reactor (even a test reactor) goes to regulatory approvals.
My state is home to the Watts Bar Nuclear Generating Station. Construction started on this facility in 1973, and the first reactor was completed in 1996. The second reactor didn't come online until 2016, and it was the first new power-generation reactor to light up in 20 years.
Hmm, doing what amounts to a controlled crash (possibly uncontrolled) on Mars with a fission reactor. What could possibly go wrong?
If a fission reactor crashes on Mars, presumably the planet itself will break into a group of extremely radioactive fireballs which will then collide with Earth and kill us all. Is that what the 70 years of nuclear paranoia sci-fi has you thinking?

Well, and Hollywood. Everything we know about radioactive materials, we learned from Hollywood. If a radioactive spider bites you, you become super strong and can cling to the ceiling with cilia in your hands and toes!
A small area of the planet being radioactive. But that's ok, with no life as we know it, not much weather to blow stuff around, and lots of land mass, we've got plenty of chances at another try.

"Not much weather"? You mean except for the global dust storms [nasa.gov] that could distribute fallout far and wide? With dust that sticks to everything like styrofoam peanuts?
Here's my conspiracy theory.
While they may see potential value for Mars, I see this as a way to acclimatize people to the idea that nuclear is a safe option. Where NASA is in the industry and previous accidents aside, the American public, as a whole, still regards NASA as being the same, awesome NASA that it was in the 50s.
That being the case, if this can bring nuclear into the public consciousness as something that's good and safe and useful, then it won't be about Mars, it will be about how we can "leverage what was learned from developing reactors usable in the harsh Martian landscape for use safely at home".
While they may see potential value for Mars, I see this as a way to acclimatize people to the idea that nuclear is a safe option.
So please tell me what other options does NASA have for power initially? Solar which can't provide all the amount of energy necessary? Fossil fuels because Mars is full of oil? Wind energy is minimal and you have to send/assemble extremely large wind mills. Geo-theormal is good for long term; however, it requires construction. Right now solar and nuclear are not the "safe" options. They are the best options for initial colonization.
Where NASA is in the industry and previous accidents aside, the American public, as a whole, still regards NASA as being the same, awesome NASA that it was in the 50s.
Doesn't change the fact that nuclear and solar are the best option for the initial settlement for Mars.
We've had workable fusion power plants that could fit into a walk-in closet for a few years now.
They mostly are being used in military activities.
Fission is so last decade.
Too late.
The 'the most-retarded-/. poster award for the year.' award was already given out upthread.
I'm late to the party with this, but Atomic Energy Canada designed an Nuclear Battery (self contained low maintenance uranium reactor) that would output 2400 kW (thermal) or 600 kW (electric).
Might be a starting point for a colony system.
Nuclear Battery (pdf) [nuclearfaq.ca]
and you cannot produce 1 Watt. They probably meant something like 500 Wh or similiar.

A friend asked this question, and I wrote an answer.
exists because we invented agriculture, which gave us year-round access
to stores of food from which some people can exclude others. This is
why poverty exists, too, incidentally. I see wealth and poverty as two
aspects of the same thing: scarcity.
Foraging societies (like the Hadza in Africa) don't have the
artificial scarcity that we civilized folk have, because every
individual (including even fairly small children) knows how to go out
into the bush and get food, shelter, and friendship (the basics we all
need for survival: they don't call this wealth; it is simply life).
exists when depopulation (from disease, famine, or war) gives
agricultural societies breathing space to grow their wealth without
having to protect it from other people. I see peace and war as
fundamentally the same thing, complementary expressions of agricultural
demographics. When foraging societies settle down to live in villages
and cities, they become more fertile (producing more people in less
time: this is peace--e.g. the Ara Pacis in ancient Rome, with pictures
of motherhood on it). More humans (the outcome of greater fertility)
means we need more stuff (wealth). Since we are sedentary and can only
get wealth by access to land that we own (fence and work
extensively)--we have to go out of our native habitat (overcrowded and
overworked as it is) and occupy other land (virgin land). Eventually,
we encounter other people--and the outcome of that meeting becomes war
(not just the feuds of individual hunters and clans, which transcend
agricultural society, but the organized genocide that is civilized war:
we don't want mere revenge or justice or whatever; we want your land,
and its wealth).
and colonialism (or in their latest guise, globalization) allow us to
enjoy peace and war, poverty and wealth, simultaneously. I send troops
to Peter's land to take it or its wealth for me, and then sell that
wealth on a "free" market to Paul,
who has no idea that his diamonds come from the death of child-soldiers
abroad. Poverty and war are outsourced to the frontier of
civilization, so that the rich urban center can enjoy wealth and peace. To
quote one of my favorite historians on the essence of peace: Auferre,
trucidare, rapere falsis nominibus imperium; atque, ubi solitudinem
faciunt, pacem appellant.
In sum: wealth and peace exist because somewhere someone died
(often miserably and involuntarily, sometimes voluntarily or otherwise

Good Morning Everyone
What a chilly start to the weekend, Winter is certainly here now! This morning I am posting my card that I have put on the Allsorts Challenge for this week. The title of the challenge is It Takes Two (this can also include white as the base card) This is such a typical design for me as you know I love using my distress inks and this card is no exception Vintage Photo all the way! The stamp design that was used is from Creative Expressions Mother's Day plate. Although the title suggests that it is quite limiting it is quite the opposite, a lovely plate to use for lots of occasions and the rose has been a big favourite of mine. The design is quite simple - I have created the backgound using vintage photo blending different areas with different strengths of the ink and then spritzing it with water to give the aged appearance that I was looking for. These inks are perfect for this technique. It makes a very inexpensive background too! I have simply embellished the design with organza ribbon and some gems. I popped in a couple of hearts from a Marianne die to enhance the design making it quite romantic.
I hope that you like my take on this weeks challenge and do have a go yourself and hope that you win a lovely prize! Well Done to Maria for getting chosen last week - it was a fabulous design enjoy your prize.
I have been sent some more photographs of the weekend event with Sheena on so will be posting again in the next couple of days with these.
Hope that you enjoy a lovely, albeit chilly, weekend! Wrap up warm if you are going out Christmas shopping!
Thank you, as ever, for popping in,
Bye for now

My Mother in law is possibly one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. On top of that she is a huge animal lover. For 12 wonderful years they had a great addition to their family. Buddy, a red Golden Retriever, was the epitome of the perfect dog. Sadly, Buddy's arthritis, along with other health problems, took him from us sooner than wanted. This past July was 2 years since Buddy passed. My brother in law, sister in law, Kevin, and I thought that for Kaye's September birthday that it was time for a new puppy. I found him in the paper on a Friday and we were all picking him out and taking him home on Sunday.
Because we weren't going to be giving "Duke" to Kevin's mom until Tuesday, Kevin and I said that we would keep him at our house until then. Though they didn't mind having him around, I think our dogs were just hoping that we weren't keeping him.
Before giving him to Kaye, I took him to my vet. I gave him a bath and he was checked out and given a clean bill of health. Finally, Tuesday arrived. We had called Kaye and Tommy the day before to see if we could all get together at their house and have some dinner. They knew we were coming for dinner, but they had NO idea that we were coming with a puppy in tow. We all walked in the door together, with a bow and balloon around Duke's collar. Kaye was floored to say the least! She kept asking, "Is this for real?", "Is this a joke?". My father in law wasn't the happiest of all, but we knew that he would get over it and would fall for those big brown eyes. However, there was a brief period of time when Kevin and I thought that we were about to have a new 4-legged addition to OUR family instead.
We took him outside to let him see his new backyard. He LOVED it! He raced through the bushes, jumped into the monkey grass, sniffed all the trees, and almost jumped into the pond.
Needless to say, he is living a great life with Kaye and Tommy. His new name is "Duke", just like the "Bush's Baked Beans" golden retriever. He is very smart and very spoiled. No one can ever take the place of Buddy, but it is nice to have a new puppy to make memories with. Happy Birthday Kaye!!

Though the title is listed as "A Lonely Mothers Day", I want to make very clear that as a Mother, I had the best of Mothers Days'. My kids got me a dozen roses, a balloon, and a beautiful card. They would have gotten cake, too but we still have a half sheet left from Dylan's 2nd Birthday party yesterday.
As for my Mother, my reason for being lonely, it has been several months since I have spoken to my Mother. She is living with my sister and has made the choice not to have any contact with me apparently because i have not heard from her since Christmas (and that was just because I tricked her. She thought it was one of the kids wanting to talk to her) so technically it's been longer than Christmas 09 since we have talked.
I'm not sure what i have done to upset her, other than being born and surviving my childhood and staying alive... anyway, I'm ranting again.
I created a Mothers Day card for her and have been contemplating on giving it to her because i was sure if Tonya got it, she would just tear it up and throw it away without even letting Mom see it. But then I got an idea. I gave the card to my adopted brother and asked him to give the cards to my mom directly.
Though she hasn't been much of a mother (it's not that my standards are unreasonable or anything) I still felt that she deserved some type of a momento to thank her for giving me life, whether she regrets it now or not.
Here are also some other Mothers Day cards that I really put my heart into this year. Luckily I have found two wonderful women who are willing to accept me as their daughter and are willing to see past my flaws (as a true mother should)
My first adopted mother: CJ and my second adopted mother Vie.
This one was for Vie.
This one was for CJ.
Now that I have pointed out the wonderful women in my life, I am not so sad any more. Sure, the one who gave birth to me and shouldn't have a choice to love me doesn't know me, but the ones who do have a choice have chosen to love me as their daughter and for that I feel truly blessed!
Happy Life

Yeah, yeah, we've been saying it for a while now; the bass have to show up at some point. Well, it looks like the fish finally got the memo as a large body of 30-, 40 and even 50-pound class stripers settled into the waters of Southwest Ledge sometime around Wednesday afternoon, give or take a tide two. As expected, word spread pretty fast and boats from across New England as well as New York made a B-Line for the Ledge. I feel like it should be quite obvious by now, but unfortunately I must still remind everyone heading out there to A) make sure that you stay INSIDE the 3-mile line when targeting and/or possessing striped bass unless you are in-transit to your home port, and B) please keep your head about you and resist the urge to kill a fish for little more than bragging rights back at the dock. If you plan to eat the fish and have no intention of wasting it, then by all means harvest away! But for those of you just looking to kill a fish to be weighed-in at the local tackle shop for a contest or to get you name in print, only to toss the carcass in a dumpster, then please do us all a favor and sell your fishing gear and move on to another pass time.
In other news, fluke reports generally seem to be best closer to the mainland of Rhode—both off Newport as well as South County—with the Island taking a back seat on general. Maybe this was due as much to a movement in fish as it was anglers targeting stripers out there this week instead, but in general things were better closer to home. Black sea bass reports were much more spread out this week too, with word of scup finally settling in close to shore along South County.

I know, I know. Wedding planning is meant to be all champers and smiles and rose-tinted specs. But the truth is, sometimes it just ain't like that.
Guest list quibbles or table plan terrors can cause even the most patient people to seriously consider jetting off for a Vegas elopement!
But stress not. These little things are just details, work your way through them and know that when you get to your wedding day, and see your beloved smiling at you, the only thing that will matter is the two of you, and the fact that you've made it to this incredible moment of committing to each other and your future together.
In the meantime though, if you need to melt away those wedding woes, I can highly recommend the following relaxation method!
- Run bath
- Add the delectable Olverum bath oil
- Let the heavenly scent envelope you
- Relax
Olverum kindly sent me a sample gift box of their gorgeous bath oils and I adore it! I tried to put into words exactly how much, but found their own description on the website which captures it. So, being that I'm not one to meddle with perfection…
Olverum offers a luxurious way to unwind, soothing aching muscles, relieving stress, and promoting a restorative sleep that can help revive a tired immune system. Enveloping you in its intoxicating unisex fragrance, Olverum is a sumptuous indulgence that leaves your skin silken, your mind calm, and your body refreshed.
Yup, that's it in a nutshell.
Go. Enjoy. Relax.
The wedding planning will wait.

Eva is thirteen, stuck between being a little girl and a teenager. It feels like her mother doesn't care about her anymore…
Eva: "You're the worst mother ever!" I shout, basically throwing myself up the stairs – I hit the wall with my body, bounce off, fling myself up another step, crash, thrump stomp stomp.
I want to throw my laptop against the wall, just to show her, but I can't even throw it on the bed. Aaagh! I can't believe she made me take my homework upstairs just because precious little John, her precious baby who's not even a baby anymore, just because he's using the computer downstairs, and my laptop lost its charge and now I'm putting it gently on my desk and plugging it in because even though I want to show my mother how little she means to me, I need my laptop.
After it's plugged in, I throw myself across the bed. I stop crying, because she hasn't come up the stairs after me, and she won't hear me. She doesn't care. She doesn't care about me anymore.
Before she had John, shit, even earlier this week…
I remember, sometimes she'd scream at me if I screamed at her. I remember how much that scared me.
But this time she just calmly told me to go to my room now, and she didn't yell, and she didn't come after me. It's been like ten minutes, and she's just downstairs watching TV with Daddy or playing a game on the computer with John, and she just left me up here.
I start doing my homework, but not on the floor, like she said, or my bed, where I could be comfortable, but standing up next to my desk. My chair is covered with clothes I haven't put away when she told me to.
She used to put my clothes away for me.
She used to read me three stories a night.
She used to cry how sorry she was if I had a tantrum.
Now it's like I don't exist, it's like…
"Eva!" she shouts up the stairs.
"What?" I say, and I don't even sound mad, like, "what!", instead, I sound relieved.
"When you're done with your homework, come down, I want to read the Nutcracker to you and John."
She always does this, she always tries to make me part of the family. It's like she doesn't even acknowledge that I'm mad at her, and plus I'm thirteen and not a kid anymore…
"I'll be right down!" I say, and hurry up to finish my math homework.I'm not saying she's right. But I feel a lot better, and I can't wait to snuggle up next to her and anyway, she needs me to cuddle with her because she's always cold, and she's says I'm her heater, and I can go back to being mad later.

Teeth Whitening
There are many factors that are attributed to yellowed teeth. Some of these include tobacco use, consumption of colored liquids, failure to clean your teeth regularly and aging. There are a large number of products used to whiten teeth, but it is good when a qualified doctor. Tooth enamel contains pores. These pores have accumulated with dirt and decomposes over time they decolorize teeth. There are two types of teeth whitening. These are non-vital bleaching and whitening vital. Vital whitening is where a solution is applied to your teeth whitening teeth. special laser is used to activate the bleach solution teeth. Non-vital bleaching is where no chemical or other solution is used, but rather a whitening agent layer is applied to the teeth. These two vital processes on how to whiten teeth.
In addition to make your teeth white, there are several other advantages that make people want to do. These include;
It makes one look younger
It boosts your confidence and improves self-esteem especially when you're smiling
white teeth that someone had a positive impression on others
at special events like a wedding, or interviews, people always ensure their teeth are presentable.
teeth whitening always makes your teeth look white and always hide yellow stains and colors.

More About Accident Injury Attorneys
A personal injury lawyer is a lawyer who prepares legal counsel to clients who allege to have been injured, physically or psychologically, as a result of the negligence or wrongdoing of another person, company, government agency, or other entity.
Thus, personal injury lawyers typically are especially versed and have more skill with regard to the area of law understood to be tort law, which encompasses civil wrongs and economic or non-economic damages to a person's property, reputation, or rights.
Even so personal injury lawyers are prepared and licensed to practice virtually any type of law, the typically only take on cases that fall under tort law including, but not limited to: work injuries, car and other accidents, defective products, medical lapses, slip and fall accidents, and more.
The term "court attorneys" can mean personal injury lawyers, even though most court cases handled by personal injury lawyers settle out of court rather than going to court and other types of lawyers, such as defendants' lawyers and criminal lawyers, also appear in court cases.

Sweating is essential because it cools down our body's temperature. As the body's temperature increases, millions of very small sweat glands become activated. The activation of the sweat glands opens the pores, which releases sweat. The release of body sweat makes your body temperature decrease.
One of the major ways to activate the internal heating system of our bodies is through exercise. Aside from this, certain emotions that we feel can cause sweating. Being angry and stressed are just some of the situations that can make you perspire.
In addition, eating spicy foods can trigger your sweat glands. Your body responds to the heat caused by the spicy foods through sweating. Having a fever also makes you sweat. The high temperature in your body must be lowered so your body must sweat for your to return to a normal temperature.
The nicotine from smoking causes the release of acetylcholine, which stimulates the sweat glands. Medicines for diabetes, depression, and high blood pressure can also make you sweat.

How to Stop Sweaty Hands Today TRANSCRIPT
Hey there, my name is Dave. Do you want an ultimate solution for how to prevent or eliminate sweaty hands? Take a minute and watch this video. #howtostopsweatinghands
Primarily, it is important to note that sweaty hands do not just dry up on their own; therefore, it's advisable that you wash them more often if you want to keep them dry. Essentially, wash your hands any time the amount of sweat starts to increase and becomes a bother and then dry them thoroughly using a towel or washcloth.
Also, you can use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, but do not use the antibacterial-based alcohol hand sanitizers. It is a perfect option especially when you cannot access water to wash your hands.
Additionally, you can opt to use a cloth or a package of paper towels to help you wipe off your hands when the sweat appears. In essence, apply them in situations or circumstances where you will be shaking hands with someone. #getridofsweatypalms
In conclusion, I hope that these tips will help you today! Click on the button or follow the link in the description indicated below. Here, I have provided you with a free video presentation to help you acquire one unusual tip to eliminate excessive sweating #homeremediesforpalmarhyperhidrosis

Varicose Veins Natural treatment TRANSCRIPT
Hello, friends, my name is Dawn. In this one- minute video, I'm going to talk about how to get rid of varicose veins once and for all using a few simple home remedies.
Topical application of apple cider vinegar reduces the size of the varicose veins. Apple cider is a wonderful treatment that naturally cleanses the body and improves blood flow and circulation. Normal and improved blood flow results in reduction of the heaviness and swelling of the varicose veins.
Use a cloth or cotton to apply undiluted apple cider vinegar over the varicose veins while gently massaging the area. Repeat this every day in the morning and before going to bed. After a few months, the varicose veins will significantly decrease in size.
Cayenne pepper is another very effective home remedy. Considered a miracle varicose veins remedy, Cayenne pepper is a rich source of Vitamin C and bioflavonoids.
These two ingredients increase blood circulation and ease the pain of swollen and congested varicose veins.
Add 1 tsp of cayenne pepper powder to 1 cup of hot water and stir to mix.
Drink the mixture three times a day. Repeat this treatment for 1 or 2 months.
Massaging the area around the varicose veins with olive oil can help increase blood circulation, which is essential in varicose vein treatment. This reduces the pain and inflammation of the varicose veins.
Give these home remedies a try and I hope that they will help you.
Psoriasis Home Remedies and Supplements for Psoriasis
Psoriasis Home Remedies and Supplements for Psoriasis TRANSCRIPT
Hi, my name is Tomas and in just one minute, you're going to know a little bit more about psoriasis home remedies. Ready? Okay, let's get started!
For an effective treatment of psoriasis, the root cause of the disease should be identified and subsequently treated.
There are many home remedies that can help you ease the suffering of psoriasis.
Firstly, the body needs to be given some appropriate dietary supplements. Supplements for psoriasis containing fish oil, milk thistle, vitamin D, and evening primrose oil are known to curb the symptoms. #homeremediesforscalppsoriasis
But, before administering the supplements, it is important to make note of the probable side effects of the supplements.
It should also be ensured that they do not interfere with current conditions and allergies of the body.
Although perfumed soaps are preferred by all because of their fragrant quality, it is advisable to stay away from such soaps and perfumes.
The dye used in such soaps can irritate the skin and can be quite harmful. People with psoriasis should make sure that they use soaps made specially for sensitive skin.
Another effective home remedy is the use of olive oil, or any other vegetable oil. Take a generous amount of the oil and apply it on the psoriasis scales.#naturaltreatmentforpsoriasis
The oil will lock in moisture and nutrients in the skin, and this will help to rub off the scales and plaque of psoriasis.
I hope that cleared up some of the confusion surrounding psoriasis and you found this quick video useful. #psoriasisdiet

How to sweat less - 3 tips to reduce sweating TRANSCRIPT
Hello, I'm Dave. No one likes to sweat profusely, and you'll know exactly how to sweat less by the end of this one-minute video.
First of all, avoid spicy foods whenever possible. Capsaicin is the chemical that produces the spicy flavor in countless peppers. It's the same chemical that makes your brain tell your body that it's overheating. At that point, your body's automatic response is to start cooling down, and that occurs by releasing sweat!
Secondly, don't drink caffeine if you can avoid it, especially hot coffee. Few things trigger increased sweating more than caffeine consumption.
Perhaps you fancy sweat-inducing fabrics. If you're wearing acrylic or polyester, then you're going to become a sweat magnet. Start wearing other fabrics to sweat less!
In the wrong situation, sweating can cause you to feel stressed out. It turns out that stressful situations can cause sweat, too. Try to stay cool and collected to keep your body temperature low and stay sweat-free.
That's all I have for you right now! I sincerely hope that you found this video informative and helpful.

What causes Varicose Veins
What causes Varicose veins ? TRANSCRIPT
Hello, my name is Dawn and this is a minute long video through which you will learn about what causes varicose veins. So let's get to it.
Varicose veins are twisting, enlarged, and inflamed veins usually connected to faulty valves. The UK health authorities estimated that 30% of adults have this condition while the National Institutes of Health in the USA say that 17% of men and 33% women have varicose veins.
Aging causes veins to lose their elasticity, which, in turn, makes the valves weaker. Valves in the veins are designed to prevent backflow of blood but if they are weak, this is not possible and blood pools in your veins, causing them to become varicose and bigger than they should be.
Affected veins have a blue appearance as a result of the stagnation of deoxygenated blood in affected veins. Experts on veins and venous diseases do not have a solid explanation for what causes valves in the vein to collapse and to them, it seems this happens for no apparent reason.
That's all I have for you! I hope the video was helpful.

How to Get Rid of Psoriasis and Scalp Psoriasis Home Remedies TRANSCRIPT
Hello there. My name is Tomas. In my short one-minute video, I will discuss five simple home remedies for getting rid of psoriasis completely.
My first method involves Olive Oil, which is one of the most effective home remedies when it comes to treating scalp psoriasis.
Apply and massage a great deal of olive oil on your scalp to soften the scaly blisters. #scalppsoriasishomeremedies
Another efficient home remedy involves moisturizing creams and ointments, which are very beneficial in lowering the flaking of plaques, as well as the associated peeling and dryness.
However, please note that this method does not fully cure the plaques.
The third method of curing psoriasis in our list involves the use of chamomile tea, a popular anti-inflammatory agent. It is applied on the reddish-brown scales that result from psoriasis for relief. #howtocurepsoriasis
Another effective remedy is Home Baking Soda, which, when combined with water in the ratio of 1:3, and the mixture is applied using a soft cotton ball on your skin's red scaly patches, lowers the itchiness that results from psoriasis. #naturalremediesforpsoriasis
For best results, it should be used continuously for a number of days.
My last psoriasis remedy today involves a medication called Anthralin, which is used to normalize DNA activity in human skin cells. #naturalpsoriasistreatment
This has been proved to reduce the effect of psoriasis. Anthralin comes in cream form and should be purchased only through a doctor's prescription.
That is all I have for you today! Try out some of these simple home remedies and completely get rid of the psoriasis nightmare so that you may finally have your smooth skin back.

The Power Of Inspiration In The World Today
Another shooting, killing or war. In today's world, people are looking
for inspiration, something that will motivate and spur them to make big
changes in life. Today's conventional media doesn't always provide the
invigoration people are looking for. An abundance of reality TV formats
and game shows have encouraged millennials to look for inspiration
online. Social networks such as Facebook and Twitter have revolutionized
the way web users get their inspiration, providing people with the
artistic and spiritual growth they need in a complex, complicated world.
But why is inspiration so powerful? And why are people turning to the
web to find it?
"Life," said Albert Einstein, "is like riding a
bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving." It's quotes like
these that continue to motivate and invigorate web users. Type in
"inspirational quotes" into Google and you'll find an assortment of
sites with famous sayings, theories, and viewpoints from some of the
biggest visionaries, thinkers, and innovators in human history. Yes, all
of Einstein's famous quotes can quickly be accessed. As can Thomas
Edison's. Or George Washington's. For those who want to span back even
further, you can get philosophical inspiration from Plato or Aristotle.
Then there are contemporary business leaders, activists, and
entertainers whose famous sayings continue to motivate and stimulate.
From Oprah to Bill Gates, Obama to Mark Zuckerburg, and everyone
in-between, people can find an inspirational quote from a prominent
politician, entrepreneur or movie star in mere seconds. The vast amount
of material (and the speed in which you can find it online) has made the
internet a powerful platform for inspiration. Websites like Good Reads
and Brainy Quotes have a plethora of famous quotes and excerpts that
will get your creative juices flowing or provide you with the motivation
you need.
But why is inspiration so powerful? Well, it has a
long history that spans several centuries. Once believed to have
originated from divine forces, inspiration is defined as the process
whereby you are "mentally stimulated" to feel or do something,
especially when it comes to creativity. The origins of inspiration can
be traced to ancient Greece, where literature and the arts transformed
the collective consciousness, providing the population with new outlets
to express themselves and engage in debate. The arts redefined culture,
something that continues today as lyricists, authors, and actors produce
creative work that sometimes has no other purpose but to inspire. But
as traditional TV and radio networks place a greater emphasis on
commercial content to attract more advertising revenue, inspiration on
traditional media is all but obsolete. That's not to say there aren't
programs and personalities that continue to inspire and motivate via the
medium, but with inspirational shows like the Oprah Winfrey Show (once
championed as the go-to place for self-help gurus, book authors and
creative thinkers) now off the air, more people are turning online to
find something that will make them think deeper.
Social media has
magnified the growing demand for inspirational content. Facebook and
Twitter are two of the most popular social networks, but other sites,
such as Pinterest and Tumblr, are making it easier for people to share
inspirational song lyrics, quotes, illustrations and photos with friends
and family. Unlike television, which has been deemed to be an
impersonal medium, social media allows people to engage in conversation.
They can find something that inspires them and ask people to share,
like or comment. Social media has made inspiration global. Someone might
post a quote or short story in Japan and it might be shared in Florida
just a few hours later.
It's not just social media either.
Websites like Reddit make it easy for people to share their poetry,
short stories, fiction and haikus with a captive audience. Then there's
the rise of the meme: Short, snappy GIFs or images with inspirational
words, often with a humorous twist, are shared from city to city, state
to state, around the world. Inspiration has become a shared experience
for many, something that has exposed the works of the highest-regarded
thinkers and poets in history to a new generation. Instead of heading to
the library, people can find out more about Chaucer or Shakespeare
Studies show that inspiration is still important and can
have a far-reaching impact. According to research, people who are in a
"state of inspiration" are more likely to show creativity in their
scientific writing, fiction and poetry. But that's not all. People who
are creatively inspired are more open to experiences and show specific
behaviors like an attention to detail. Creative people often draw from a
number of influences. They might be inspired by religion, politics,
culture, the weather, or a song. In today's ever-evolving world, many of
them are deciding to share their work online with an audience wanting
to be inspired.
People might crave inspiration when they
experience a life-changing event or something negative happens. But
traditional text (quotes, poems, and short stories) are sometimes not
enough for today's web savvy creative thinkers. They want more. They
scour sites like YouTube looking for video content that will inspire
them, with some of the most popular inspirational vloggers generating
million of views. As the world becomes increasingly visual, it's no
surprise that some people prefer to find inspirational content on video
sharing sites rather than at a library, museum or art gallery. However,
the process is similar: People are creatively inspired and might decide
to write down their feelings and thoughts about a piece of art, poem or
Inspiration has come a long way since the days of ancient
Greece. The internet has revolutionized the way people find and share
information. Today, memes, GIFs, videos and quote websites provide
people with a creative outlet and source of inspiration, especially when
they can't always find this type of information from conventional
sources like television and radio. As more people use the internet
around the world, including on their smartphones and tablets, it looks
like people will be inspired for years to come, even when they are on
the go.

Atlanta Roof Repair is True Entrepreneurism
Hey big shout out to Nike, first of all. I can not tell you how much I love being an entrepreneur. But the big thing for me is to watch all the other entrepreneurs and seeing what they do, how they do it and especially when they start from nothing! Let's give some props toAtlanta Roof Repair.
So, what we did is went out into the 'real' world and spoke with those who actually started their own business (entrepreneur) from the bottom and they are just booming at this time.
One of those companies is from Atlanta, GA. They are a roofing repair company that started from their garage. Meaning, just the tools in their garage they started going around town asking those who needed any type of roofing service, but here's the catch; they did this for half the cost!
So, I think what the first 'secret' here is when wanting to start your own business is to GIVE FIRST. You see, they probably made $12k their first year. They gave first, built up their customer base and all these referrals absolutely know this roofing company is the best they have ever dealt with due to the what they did for them.
So, now decades later in Atlanta, which is quite a few people, they are booming! There customer service exceeds all others. They get it done right the first time and if they don't they stay until it is completely finished correctly. They are working for people and they want all these people to be completely satisfied and happy with their work. They take pride in their business.

A personal injury lawyer is an attorney who provides legal counsel to people who claim to have been injured, physically or psychologically, as a result of the negligence or wrongdoing of another person, company, government agency, or other entity.
Thus, personal injury lawyers tend to be especially knowledgeable and have more experience with regard to the area of law known as tort law, which includes civil wrongs and economic or non-economic damages to a person's property, reputation, or rights.
Even though personal injury lawyers are trained and licensed to practice virtually any field of law, they generally only handle cases that fall under tort law including, but not limited to: work injuries, automobile and other accidents, defective products, medical mistakes, slip and fall accidents, and more.
The expression "trial lawyers" can refer to personal injury lawyers, even though most cases handled by personal injury lawyers settle rather than going to trial and other types of lawyers, such as defendants' lawyers and criminal prosecutors, also appear in trials.

10 reasons why scientist believe The Shroud of Turin in Real
"The Shroud challenges (many people's core beliefs) because there's a strong implication that there is something beyond the basic science going on here," Barrie Schwortz, one of the leading scientific experts on the Shroud of Turin, told CNA.
Admitting that he did not know whether there was something beyond science at play, he added: "That's not what convinced me: it was the science that convinced me."
The Shroud of Turin is among the most well-known relics believed to be connected with Christ's Passion. Venerated for centuries by Christians as the burial shroud of Jesus, it has been subject to intense scientific study to ascertain its authenticity, and the origins of the image.
The image on the 14 feet long, three-and-a-half feet wide cloth is stained with the postmortem image of a man - front and back - who has been brutally tortured and crucified.
Schwortz, now a retired technical photographer and frequent lecturer on the shroud, was a member of the 1978 Shroud of Turin Research Project which brought prestigious scientists together to examine the ancient artifact.
As a non-practicing Jew at the time, he was hesitant to be part of the team and skeptical as to the shroud's authenticity - presuming it was nothing more than an elaborate painting. Nonetheless, he was intrigued by the scientific questions raised by the image.
Despite his reservations, Schwortz recounts being persuaded to remain on the project by a fellow scientist on the team - a NASA imaging specialist, and a Catholic - who jokingly told him: "You don't think God wouldn't want one of his chosen people on our team?"
And Schwortz soon encountered one of the great mysteries of the image that still entrances its examiners to this day.
He explained that a specific instrument used for the project was designed for evaluating x-rays, which allowed the lights and darks of an image to be vertically stretched into space, based on the lights and darks proportionately.
For a normal photograph, the result would be a distorted image: with the shroud, however, the natural, 3-D relief of a human form came through. This means "there's a correlation between image density - lights and darks on the image - and cloth to body distance."
"The only way that can happen is by some interaction between cloth and body," he said. "It can't be projected. It's not a photograph - photographs don't have that kind of information, artworks don't."
This evidence led him to believe that the image on the shroud was produced in a way that exceeds the capacities even of modern technology.
"There's no way a medieval forger would have had the knowledge to create something like this, and to do so with a method that we can't figure out today - the most image-oriented era of human history."
"The shroud has become one of the most studied artifacts in human history itself, and modern science doesn't have an explanation for how those chemical and physical properties can be made."
While the image on the Shroud of Turin was the most convincing evidence for him, he said it was only a fraction of all the scientific data which points to it being real.
"Really, it's an accumulation of thousands of little tiny bits of evidence that, when put together, are overwhelming in favor of its authenticity."
Despite the evidence, many skeptics question the evidence without having seen the facts. For this reason, Schwortz launched the website www.shroud.com, which serves as a resource for the scientific data on the Shroud.
Nonetheless, he said, there are many who still question the evidence, many believing it is nothing more than an elaborate medieval painting.
"I think the reason skeptics deny the science is, if they accept any of that, their core beliefs have been dramatically challenged, and they would have to go back and reconfigure who they are and what they believe in," he said. "It's much easier to reject it out of hand, and not worry about it. That way they don't have to confront their own beliefs."
Schwortz emphasized that the science points to the Shroud being the burial cloth belonging to a man, buried according to the Jewish tradition after having been crucified in a way consistent with the Gospel. However, he said it is not proof of the resurrection - and this is where faith comes in.
"It's a pre-resurrection image, because if it were a post-resurrection image, it would be a living man - not a dead man," he said, adding that science is unable to test for the sort of images that would be produced by a human body rising from the dead.
"The Shroud is a test of faith, not a test of science. There comes a point with the Shroud where the science stops, and people have to decide for themselves."
"The answer to faith isn't going to be a piece of cloth. But, perhaps, the answer to faith is in the eyes and hearts of those who look upon it."
When it comes to testifying to this meeting point between faith and science, Schwortz is in a unique position: he has never converted to Christianity, but remains a practicing Jew. And this, he says, makes his witness as a scientist all the more credible.
"I think I serve God better this way, in my involvement in the Shroud, by being the last person in the world people would expect to be lecturing on what is, effectively, the ultimate Christian relic."
"I think God in his infinite wisdom knew better than I did, and he put me there for a reason."
Wide Golf Shoes
Golf has always been a man's game, and comparing equipment, not just your scores on the course, is one-way men show off. Just like showing off a new car, men feel superior to their peers when they are sporting the best clubs on the market. Unfortunately, most men do not put as much attention into the shoes they are wearing as they do with the clubs that they are carrying. You may be thinking that the clubs are much more important than the shoes because you are hitting the ball with them. This is only partly true, the clubs do play a more significant role, but your shoes also play a large role in your comfort on the course. And anyone who has played golf for four hours knows that being uncomfortable for that long not only stinks but will lead you to play a bad round of golf. So do not just buy the pair of wide Golf Shoes that look the nicest or the pair you saw some celebrity wearing, but take some time and pick out the pair of shoes that fits you the best.
Walking eighteen holes for three to five hours, miles in distance, over uneven ground sometimes in the heat, can be extremely tiring and painful for your feet. Basketball players carefully select sneakers for games, and baseball, football and soccer players carefully choose comfortable cleats. Why should you put any less effort and care into picking a golf shoe as you would for these other sports? Being tired and uncomfortable on the course can change your swing and lead you to play a poor round of golf.
Let me go over some basics for what to look for when picking wide golf shoes. Your toes should have a half inch of room to prevent them from being cramped, but do not get shoes that leave more than that. Too much room will allow your foot to slide in your shoe and will throw off your swing. You want your shoe to be tight in the middle and back to help you keep great balance. Balance is the most important part of your swing, so this is vital. Find shoes that are soft, so you will not get blisters or swollen feet. Waterproof shoes are also great because you will likely find yourself playing in the rain occasionally. I have talked a lot about comfort, but one thing to know is that you should not wear another type of shoe because it is comfortable. Ensure you have a wide foot before buying wide shoes. You can choose from the common labels like Addidas, Nike, Footjoy, or even Ecco golf shoes. they provide a variety of wide shoes. Nongolf shoes could lead to injury on the course by slipping if they do not have the right bottoms. Therefore, visit your local golf shop and pick out the most comfortable shoe you can find that gives you room for the toes and support for the rest of the foot.

TROY, Mo. (AP) – Authorities say an eastern Missouri man was intoxicated and angry about a Snapchat post when he beat a woman with a hammer.
Levi Lauck, 21, was arrested on charges that include kidnapping, reports the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. He's jailed in Lincoln County on $200,000 bond.
Police say the 24-year-old woman sustained injuries to her head, as well as a cut on her hand and bruises. She told police the suspect was angry over a social media post and began striking her Sunday while driving away from a family event. Police say that at one point, he stopped, retrieved a hammer from the trunk, and hit the woman with the hammer as he drove.
The woman says she fled to a neighbor when the attack continued at his residence.

Wow, what a slacker I've been with getting blog posts up here!! I wish I could say it's because I've been off on some beach somewhere getting a great tan and sipping margaritas....but alas, that is not the case. I think I've been reluctant to do a new post because life is not what I ever expected it to be right now, and I just don't really know what to say about it. I'm not one to air everything to the public and put all my personal business out there, but for those of you that are close, you know what I'm talking about.
Our family has had some pretty huge and unexpected changes over the last several months. Things that I guess somehow I wasn't shocked by but was shocked by all at the same time. To say it's been hard doesn't begin to explain it. Our life has been rocked. Mine, the kids, everyone. We are trying to adjust to a new normal here, and it's not been an easy task, especially with the holidays here. I say all of this never to get sympathy, or to try to make everyone guess what is going on. I say this so that maybe I can share a little about what I've learned.
It's so interesting to me to look back over my life and how I've grown as a person, mother, daughter, etc. I really can see how much I've changed when I look at hard situations like this, and I can only attribute it to one thing. I've grown in my faith. I think that 2 years ago when we were at Christmas putting the "Waiting for us in Russia" adoption ornament on the tree while wondering what was going to happen with adoptions in Russia, I was still struggling ALOT with trusting God and His plan that He had for us. We all know that it is hard when things are hard to sit back and trust that He's got this. As soon as we heard that we couldn't adopt from Russia anymore, I was immediately looking into other options and trying to figure out what to do next. What I should have been doing is sitting quietly and listening to what He wanted me to do next. Sure would have saved me alot of work and worry!!! Ironically, that ornament isn't hanging on our tree this year, but I do look at it almost every day. For me, it's a reminder that while we thought our little girl was in Russia, that was just a detour for us to get to the child He really had planned for us.
Fast forward to now, and Lainey could not be more of a part of our family, and just fits like I carried her myself. Seeing her is truly a reminder of God's faithfulness to us, and reminds me that when I follow His plan, it always works. I'm in a time of my life where that is very difficult to see again. I think we all find ourselves here more than once in our lives. I'm trying to listen, but it's so so hard with so many voices from so many places that are giving advice. I truly truly appreciate the family and friends in my life who are standing next to me now through all of this, and don't think I would be surviving without them. BUT, I also need to remind myself to sit and be quiet and listen to what God wants me to do, who He wants me to be, what path He wants me to take.
I don't know what the future will hold, but I know that one day I will look back with more wisdom and be able to see how I have grown through struggle. I will look back and see that I did the best I could do in the situation, and I trusted Him in each step knowing that His plan was in place. I will still pray EVERY day for the situation to resolve, because I know in my heart that it can. I will look back at my life and see the amazing things that I have been able to make it through and know that He has given me the strength to make it through this and be the mom that I need to be and the strong woman that He made me. I will learn to trust more, I will know myself better, and I will come out even stronger.

> We took lunch to Charles the other day and hung out with him at work for a bit. He took the girls into the back room for balloons, but they came out with these sweet treats instead.
These lollipops were enjoyed the entire car ride home. I always loved getting the big ones like these at festivals or fairs.
Samuel has been chewing on that thumb quite a bit lately. You know he got a taste of those lollipops once we were in the house.

Not much to say today, but a reminder that this is Read an E-book Week. I don't know who came up with that brilliant idea, but Smashwords.com has taken it under wing, and they use it to promote themselves and their authors. All of my books are half-price this week, so check them out using this link. Good luck, 'cause as of this morning I think their server had been crashed.
Also, there's a new review, from Cynthia Hickey of Author's Choice Reviews. It's a rolling page and they update every day, so you'll have to scroll down some. This site rates books according to their "faith element" (The Job scored high), and I think is aimed at wholesalers -- bookstores or distributors who care about what message their books get across. Anyway, it's another link on the innernational inter webs.

This is What Happens When You Don't Shower for 2 Days, #5 is Awful!
Having a shower is a daily routine for most of us, but if you've ever been tempted to skip your body-washing session when you're rushed for time one morning, you might want to think again. And, just like you don't skip your meals; don't skip your showers as that can lead to some serious consequences.
According to an article published by TwentyTwoWords, there are a number of pretty gross things that happen to your body when you skip showering for two days straight. The first problem is down to bacteria.
Humans carry around 1,000 types of bacteria around with them, including 40 types of fungus, reports the website. While most of these are actually good for us, it needs help fighting off the bad bacteria from soap.
"You can't contain the bad bacteria if you don't shower," the site explains. "And if they find their way to your eyes, nose, or mouth, you can get sick."
Bacteria is also the cause of body odour. In fact, the gasses given off by bacteria can reportedly lead to around 30 nasty smells from one body. Lovely.
*You will fall sick if you don't take a shower because harmful bacteria and germs will activate on the body;
*The bacteria and germs then cause infection on the skin;
*Moreover, dirt, sweat, and germs will accumulate in the body, making it grubby and unpleasant;
*The skin will become flakey because of the bacteria and sweat;
*If you skip showers it can cause a bad body smell and make your body stinky.

Well, plenty. The Dictionary of Medieval Names from European Sources provides documentation for first (given) names from numerous sources. It traces the appearance of names from 500 to 1600 as they appear in various countries. The diversity of the spellings of names is never more evident than in this tool; for example, "Frederick" and its many variants are cited hundreds of times from dozens of tomes. This site also gives the date of the first appearance of a name (or its variant) in the countries examined so far. Western European sources have been culled for their information; Eastern European sources are now being scrutinized. All in all, a fascinating project showing the richness and history of names and their development over time. FYI: It appears that the first mention of "Frederick" occurred in 814 with the spelling "Friderici".
