Hi There! I'm Shobita. Architect, Blogger and mum of 2 stubborn toddlers. As a young mum living in London, I have been extensively researching safe and non-toxic products for my little rock star. Now, I would like to take you along with me on this non-toxic journey of parenthood and on my hunt for the best and safest baby products out there.
Launched in 2015 as a virtual friend and guide to new parents out there requiring product advice, Parenthood.Guide is a quickly growing treasure-trove of information regarding the best baby and non-toxic products to keep your home and baby safe and happy. I breed a positive, fun mentality, because I believe that parenting doesn't have to be stressful at all. If we're being honest, I also believe that gooey brownies and baby cuddles can cure even the worst of days.
The gist is this: if you've got something urgent and important to buy that is also safe for your child, but can't spend hours reading every user review online or asking co-parents for advice at every stage, Parenthood.guide takes care of all that legwork, and brings you curated results and products tailored to your needs.
Whether you're looking for that brand new bassinet for your upcoming baby, or swapping out that toxic crib for one that is safe and chemical free, I'm here for you every step of the way.
I am passionate about helping you find that product that is "just right" for you and your baby. Whether it be sharing my lessons learned so you can continue to be the super mum or dad that you already are, or reminding you what a great job you're doing, I'm right here with you through it all.

I have a 20 acre ranch north of Heber AZ. I had purchased 4 batteries, an inverter, and random harbor freight solar panels about 5 years ago and now it is time for me to get serious about my off grid solar system with batteries. I spoke to Aaron and not only did he come up with a plan for my daily energy needs he is also going to keep my office cooler with a ductless mini-split air conditioner and radiant barrier. And I am also getting a smart wifi monitoring system to control everything. Thank you so much Alternative Energy!!
I had a great experience with Aaron and Alternative Energy LLC. I had separate installation dates for the installation of the garage air conditioning and for the garage door insulation. No 4 hour windows, they gave me a time they would be there and they were exactly on time both times, a rare experience these days. They did a great job with the install as you can see from the pics attached. Very happy with everything, I highly recommend Alternative Energy!
The cooling unit was installed in a timely and professional manner. They went out of their way to ensure everything was done to my satisfaction. Ryan was a pleasure to work with as he efficiently handled all aspects of the contracted items.

What Is A Load Controller?
A load controller is a device that balances the supply of electricity by controlling and adjusting the electricity load. Load controllers reduce home electricity costs by reducing demand for electricity during peak/high cost kilowatt hours.
*Attention – SRP residential electric customers considering solar installation. This residential load controller is designed for the (E-32) solar rate that SRP recently implemented to benefit solar customers. The Pensar Load Controller is also effective at controlling APS peak electricity charges.
The Smart Panel 3000 Energy Management System is a great addition to any home that wants to control loads and save money on electricity. Alternative Energy, LLC offers solutions that will provide you will a higher return on your investment.
Please Be Advised:
Alternative Energy, LLC/Power Solar Solutions is in no way sponsored by, related to, affiliated or endorsed by APS aka Arizona Public Service Company, one of the major Arizona electric utility companies. APS sells energy, Alternative Energy, LLC helps you conserve it/manage it.
Residential Load Controllers
Alternative Energy, LLC is an approved installation contractor of Pensar Load Controllers and Inergy Systems Demand Controllers. Both of these systems can help APS and SRP customers save money, especially for customers who are currently using solar, we can help you save even more.
We can fully integrate load controllers with storage, arrays, PV or any other type of alternative power source on your residential or commercial building.
About Alternative Energy, LLC:
3 Years ago we got into load controllers when utility companies in Arizona changed their rates to start charging customers more for using their power during peak periods.
As energy costs continue to rise, investing in energy management solutions is an investment that pays back over and over again. We help save energy during the most important times of the day, which helps you save big no matter how much you are being charged per kilowatt.
Above is a picture of the "Inergy Systems" Smart Panel 3000. This is a relay box that is installed and mounted directly next to the right side of your main electric panel. There is no outside or inside Control panel with, load status lights, digital lights or wires running through your attic. This state-of-the-art system uses cloud technology to allow you to access data and control of your home by using your laptop, pc or tablet at remotely or while at home.
This is a picture of the control module being installed and wired to the higher voltage loads such as the water heaters, clothes dryer, AC unit etc. The HVAC equipment in your home is controlled by WIFI thermostats that communicate with the Smart Panel 3000 and collects data like as time to reach target temperature, run time, and uploads this information to the cloud.
Real Life Monitoring
As you can see above, the Inergy Systems load controller offers a real life view of when and how much power your home uses.
Load run times and High Energy Demand levels can be monitored or viewed in real-time.
Load Controller FAQ
Read the most frequently asked questions about load controllers.
What's does a load controller do?
A load controller basic function is to spread out your energy usage. In technical terms it's really called, "load shedding" but that seems to confuse some people and we like to educate our customers.
A load controller manages your power usage by limiting the amount of loads that happen at the same time. High energy demand loads such as running your A/C unit, Hot water heater, or Dryer, aren't allowed to run in conjunction, which is usually the main reason for high energy bills.
You can't control the rate of energy you are paying but you can control the amount of energy you are using at the same time. It comes with customizable energy settings that allow you to set it where you want. The lower the setting, the more you save.
What Is Peak Time?
High Energy Demand is the highest usage of electrical power during a given period. For APS customers, high energy demand is based off the highest amount of electricity you used during a 30 min (SRP) or 1 hour period (APS). The measurement is 1KW or 1000 watts per time period.
Cost of electricity Feb 2017: $13.85/KW
Energy demand shows that 10KW would equal $138.50 for 60 minutes of energy usage. Cut that amount in half (what a load controller can do), would reduce your energy bill by nearly $60/month.
Demand rates are already high and are even expected to rise upwards of $16/kW very soon, making this energy management system an investment that is sure to pay off even faster.
Parts Of Your Home That Use The Most Energy:
- Water Heater: 4.5KW
- Electric Dryer: 6KW
- Oven: 5KW
- Spa Heater: 10-20KW
- Stove: 2.5KW/burner
- Pool water pump: 2KW
- 5 Ton Heat Pump: 8KW (15 year old heat pump: 11KW)
- 3 Ton Heat Pump: 5.6KW (1.6 KW/ton)
The meter actually measures average power usage, adding together the values expressed above are not the way this meter would read your energy usage. For example; if you have a heat pump (5 ton) that turns on and off every 10 minutes, the average energy demand of that load would be measured as 4KW. You water heater uses around 4.5KW and has the potential to run for an hour long (APS's high energy demand time). The main purpose of our controller is to keep your energy sucking devices from running during the hours where the energy is the most expensive.
What Does A Load Controller Connect To?
The load controller is connected to 3 main elements; the heat pump, hot water heater, and the heating element in your clothes dryer. Our years of experience has taught us that your pool pump should only run during off peak times and that your over does even need to be plugged in.
The controller is already aware of the loads such as these and does not need to be connected to them. When demand starts to spike, the controller will shed the loads to allow use of the over. If set up correctly you won't even notice the controller working until you see the savings on your energy bill.
Do Load Controllers Need Maintenance?
No maintenance, once the controller is installed, it's highly unlikely to have an issue and don't need checkups.
How Do Load Controllers Work:
How do I know what to do? How can I control it?
All of the collected data is automatically sent to a cloud system so you can easily log into your online account and view your usage, create your graphs quickly, and make any changes to the demand levels seasonally. Set a timer for your water heater and see a complete archive of all of the energy you have been using.
What does it track?
Every appliance, bulb, and socket in your home is recorded, and then archived into the cloud.
Sensors are placed on the main loads so they can be track and archived.
After being able to see the normal load usage in a graph like presentation, you will easily be able to see if your HVAC equipment is running at normal efficiency or not. If you A/C unit take longer to reach a certain temperature, you will automatically be alerted.
You can even track usage either is historical or real time mode, be able to see run times of loads, set the levels and priorities on your PC or laptop. Mobile app soon to come!
The sensors feed the data into the Smart Panel 3000 and 30amp latching relays are where the main loads are fed into.
The main control box is mounted directly next to the main electrical service panel. It acquires data and sends it to the cloud so you can see it on your devices. We are currently creating a mobile app that will allow you to turn certain loads off or on, change the temperature in your home, and read history just like on the pc or laptop.
Here is an example of one of the graphs showing energy usage in real time. If you scroll over the graph, you will see even more details about your energy usage.
Do I Need A Load Controller?
If you would like to receive a 30% reduction on your energy bill, then yes, you do need a load controller. One of our clients had a 4 bedroom home where she saved 16k off of her APS bill in just over 12 years (that's over 1300 per year!). Many have even saved as much as 40% off of their electricity bill will APS or SRP.
What does The Pensar Load Controller Look Like?
Below is a picture of the Pensar System 1000 (outdoor display) this unit is mounted right next to your existing breaker box
This is a picture of the relay box that will be mounted to the outside of your homes control module. There are certain modes that display your maximum demand level (your choice), your current demand level, your last average hourly usage (How APS measures), highest demand point (highest peak last billing cycle), date, time, and alarm settings.
It may take some adjustments to find the demand level that best suits your lifestyle and energy usage. It may take a year or so to know how low you can actually go. We encourage our customers to look at this usage often within the first year to get the best results. You may even end up with separate settings for each time of the year (spring, summer, fall, winter) to ensure your home still stays cool and warm when it should be and saves when it already is. However, the lower your setting, the more you save.

In 1967 the Monkees were flying high, their TV show was still going strong and their records were consistently big sellers. When Pleasant Valley Sunday hit #1 the B-side was also getting a lot of air-play. So much so that it also became a huge hit, and "Words" went all the way to #11 on the hot 100. Despite the fact that the song still had studio musicians, it was one of their first hits with instruments mostly played by the band members themselves. Today though, "Words" is a forgotten oldie.

On bad days, Gordon Ramsay called her a bitch. On good days, it was 'Dizzy Lizzy'. Luckily, neither stuck, and now Angela Hartnett is known for her culinary genius, TV appearances, two cookbooks and four restaurants, for which she's been awarded a Michelin star and an MBE for Services to the Hospitality Industry.
Not bad for a chef whose colleague – and legendary chef – Marcus Wareing predicted would only last two weeks under Ramsay when she went for a trial at his first restaurant, Aubergine. She saw the fortnight out in style, going on to support the outspoken Ramsay at several of his other restaurants in London and Dubai. Winning the Best Newcomer Award and the Square Meal Guides' BMW Best New Restaurant in 2003 for the two restaurants at The Connaught, she netted her first Michelin star just a year later.
Hailing from Kent, the now 48-year-old has enjoyed an illustrious career that has seen her become one of the most high-profile women in her industry. She's appeared on numerous popular TV series, such as Celebrity MasterChef, Great British Menu and Saturday Kitchen, and even been a judge of the prestigious Roux Scholarship, the premier cooking competition for chefs in the UK.
Nowadays, she oversees her Hartnett Holder & Co restaurant in Lime Wood Hotel, at the heart of the New Forest National Park. Against a relaxed, stylish and comfortable backdrop, she and head chef Luke Holder create locally-sourced Italian dishes with a respectful nod to the seasons, in partnership with renowned hotelier Robin Hutson, whose Home Grown Hotels group comprises the five highly successful Pig Hotels, and who helped found the Hotel du Vin boutique hotel group back in the mid-1990s.
"I liked the idea and the fact it was quite close to London," says Angela. "It was my first venture outside the capital, and the first real attraction was working with Robin, because I liked what he'd done with Hotel du Vin and Pig Hotels. I then met Luke, and we had a very similar ethos about food, so it just made sense. Since then, I've grown to know more about Hampshire and lots of different suppliers, some of which we now use in London, so it's been a lovely growing experience for us both."
Indeed, the chef is perhaps best known for Murano London, her Michelin-starred Italian restaurant in the heart of Mayfair. In addition, she's since opened Café Murano in St James' and Covent Garden as chef patron, as well as Merchants Tavern in Shoreditch as a shared owner, establishing herself as one of the country's best-loved culinary personalities, and most prolific restaurateurs.
"It's a different style and setup," she adds. "I always see Lime Wood in between the cafés and Murano. It's not quite as fancy-pants as Murano, but not quite as casual as the cafés. Luke might take some of my dishes up a level – he has some lovely touches and has worked in Italy a lot, so he knows his stuff, and has taught me things I didn't know, so we've come together, which has been great."
Sharing and provenance are driving forces behind the food at HH & Co, which adopts this much-loved approach to eating. Ironically, the emphasis is on home-cooked dishes rather than restaurant fare, which is emblematic of both Angela and Luke's signature styles of grounded informality and respect for local produce.
"Luke gets fantastic fish from the local suppliers down in Devon, and we're going to be one of the first to have wild garlic, because it's literally growing outside the kitchen door – there are fields of the stuff," explains Angela. "There's a big restriction on mushrooms, but there's lovely local free-range chicken eggs, which we use to make our pasta, so it all works out quite well, and we use a lot of different meat suppliers."
Angela's quick to point out it's Luke who runs the show at HH & Co. Having worked in some of London's busiest and most exclusive restaurants – including Orrery, The Sloane Club and the Oxo Tower – he then spent a year in the Italian kitchen of the three-Michelin Enoteca Pinchiorri in Tuscany. It was an experience that would ultimately change his philosophy on food forever.
"Luke's very much the person who runs the kitchen," Angela insists. "We do about six menu changes in a year with the seasons. He'll write the menu and I'll do a tasting, then we'll tweak everything, but I trust that he can cook. Like anything, it just takes another pair of eyes, but it's always good and everyone works together. At the end of the day, we want the best product for our guests."
And the best experience too, it would seem. Alongside the restaurant itself, patrons are invited to 'head behind the scenes' with a course at HH & Co Backstage, the hotel's cookery school. Here, budding cooks are treated to a unique, fun and informal cooking lesson, under the tutelage of chef Iain Longhorn. Suitable for all abilities, the courses aim to provide confidence and inspiration to succeed in the kitchen.
"Another beauty is the cookery school, which is a lovely attachment backstage, where we do pop-ups with different chefs," confirms Angela. "We want to always keep it interesting, so that you can come and do a bit of cookery as well, which keeps it really fresh.
"Iain's been absolutely brilliant. He's a great guy and really fantastic at it. He's patient with people and understands what they're looking for. He tweaks the classes as he goes, so it very much grows and is organic, which is a good thing that we quite like."
Speaking of the pop-ups, these special events have been equally successful. For one night only, some of the biggest names in the hospitality business take over the restaurant, serving up their trademark menus to guests, before taking the lead in the cookery school the next day. Celebrity appearances to date have included the likes of Michel Roux Jr, Tom Kerridge, Nathan Outlaw and Mark Hix, to name a few.
"We've got a fantastic line-up coming up, including a couple of people who came last year, and an amazing lot of new chefs," Angela reveals. "We're also adding to it and doing day classes as well."
While Lime Wood's next roster of A-list talent is currently under wraps, it's just this sort of fun and immersive experience that makes Angela's Hampshire venture so appealing for her diners and peers alike. But whereas she's been bestowed with the prestige of a Michelin star for her London efforts, she's far from chasing the same accolade here, as she believes it's the customers who should come first.
"I don't think you should open a restaurant for a Michelin star," she says. "A lot of chefs make that mistake. You open a restaurant with the right concept, for the customers in your area and beyond. A lot of restaurants do it well, but aren't necessarily the style or don't want to do certain things.
"If we get one, that would be fantastic, but if we don't, we've still got a great restaurant, which is really the way to look at it. It's lovely for the team more than anything, but there's a big misconception with it sometimes, and people don't understand what it involves."
With future plans underway to open a greenhouse this summer, where clients can dine and potentially link to the cookery school, it seems as though Angela's plans for HH & Co and Lime Wood aren't showing signs of slowing anytime soon. But what else would one expect from such a respected gourmet personality? Michelin star or not, this is certainly one Hampshire eatery for foodies to keep an eye on.
"People who come to the hotel are coming out of London for leisure time and want to relax, so we do a little bit more silver service, which is lovely, and it's also fantastic to teach the next generation of waiters to do this stuff," concludes Angela. "We want to carry on doing some fantastic pop-ups and master classes, and continue pushing the menu and making sure it really works. We're training the next generation of chefs, and every year we're keeping it fresh and alive."
On bad days, Gordon Ramsay called her a bitch. On good days, it was 'Dizzy Lizzy'. Luckily, neither stuck, and now Angela Hartnett is known for her culinary genius, TV appearances, two cookbooks and four restaurants, for which she's been awarded a Michelin star and an MBE for Services to the Hospitality Industry.

Mapping the Internal Landscape
Session at the Building Bridges Conference
All traditional cultures consider humans to be mirrors of Nature. This microcosmic-macrocosmic relationship has both outward and inward dimensions. In Chinese Medicine, the outer dimension is reflected in acupuncture point names, many of which evoke natural forms–rivers and mountains, sun, and stars. The inner dimension of this mirror is described in Daoist and alchemical writings, most famously the Neijing Du/Chart of the Inner Channel. This class will explore the universal aspects of the inner landscape of the body as a microcosm. Focusing on foundational structures–the pelvis, the chest, the head–participants will gain a concrete experience of the energies that animate these regions. Embodied discernment of the inner landscape facilitates self-discovery and clarifies the path of healing.
Learn more about the conference!
Friday, September 15
3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Hyatt Regency Reston
800 Presidents St
Reston, VA 20190
Body-Awareness as a Path to Healing: The Practical Wisdom of Chinese Medicine
a free webinar | Sunday, August 20 | 10:00 am EDT
hosted by TCM World
Join Evan Rabinowitz as he teaches a method of tuning in to the inner landscape of the body through the simultaneous acts of listening and conscious awareness. He will discuss how in the fundamental regions of our body (the chest, the head, the pelvis) we experience different aspects of ourselves.
These body regions can be vehicles for awareness of our thoughts, emotions, and memories. Using this embodied awareness we can more easily discern the difference between the places in us that are impediments to peac and clarity, the places that need healing, and the places that give us access to healing.

You may be looking at your first trip to the slopes or perhaps you just fancy some new gear for the current season, but either way searching through varying brands can be daunting, especially when you're uncertain where to begin. Well one brand in particular that stands out from the rest when it comes to cold weather gear is The North Face.
Since the late 1960's The North Face (appropriately named after the most unforgiving and toughest face on any mountain) has had the goal of providing all kinds of outdoor enthusiasts from mountaineers and explorers to sportspeople with outdoor gear that will help them to withstand the toughest climates on the planet with ease.
Perfectly suited to helping you enjoy shredding powder on your board The North Face Jackets are made using the pinnacle of protective fabric technologies so far like on The North Face Triclimate Jackets. The Triclimate system is incredible as it offers three different weather options making it ideal for any climate, you can wear the layers separately but with all components combined they prove a formidable weather defense. The jacket shell is made using HyVent fabric which not only has complete waterproofing but also allows for moisture wicking so you don't have to worry about moisture inside or out and provides protection from biting wind. The second liner – Heatseeker Eco is water resilient but it also provides excellent insulation and is great for the environment as The North Face Snowboard Jackets are made from 100% recycled materials that are also hypoallergenic.
As you also need Snowboard Pants, The North Face have you covered there as well by using the same HyVent and Heatseeker technologies as the jackets to keep you warm and dry on any slope, but also make use of the StretchVent technology which is built into the gaiter with gripper elastic which combined with The North Face Chimney Venting System work to allow the build-up of hot air to escape to regulate body temperature to keep you comfortable while never letting any cold air or moisture inside.
So you can see The North Face Clothing is the ideal choice for snowboarding or skiing on the slopes for the first time or if you need new premium quality gear, but they also make an extensive range of The North Face Bags, luggage, accessories, boots and more should you want their gear for every outdoor experience you have and with so many online retailers having a The North Face sale even sometimes on the latest gear making them very affordable

More than two decades after former Nigerian international Emmanuel Amuneke missed a crucial penalty against Russia, in the Confederation Cup in Saudi Arabia, the Flying Eagles coach is yet to completely overcome the pain. The former Zamalek of Egypt ace opened up in chat with FIFA.com, recalling with nostalgia that the miss unfortunately pops up from time to time like severe migraine.
Mexico held Super Eagles to a 1-1 draw at the end of regular time in the third place game of the 1995 fifa Confederations cup in Saudi Arabia, but his miss during the penalty shootout cost Nigeria a third place finish.
The former Nigeria U20 coach recalled the memories at the King Fahd International Stadium after Daniel Amokachi, Austin Eguavoen, Ben Iroha, Mutiu Adepoju had all scored their penalties, only for him to miss the last kick.
"I'm like any other player; I'd like the game to end during the 90 minutes. I felt bad about it, but you can't predict penalties." Amuneke told FIFA.com
He however pressed the crop of players that flew the nation's flag then describing them as bundle of talents
"Sometimes a team, a generation, just comes out of the blue. This was our golden generation.
"We had great players who couldn't even get in the team because the competition for places was so fierce."
He also paid tribute to the 'great' Dream Team following their triumph in the 1996 Olympics men football event.
"We didn't go there expecting to win gold, but as the tournament went on we grew in confidence," he continued.
"We had Kanu, Okocha, Amokachi, Ikpeba. We're talking about Taribo West and Uche Okechukwu. There's too many greats to even name!
"You have to accept the way you lose just like you accept the way you win."
The former Barcelona winger who made over 27 appearances for the Super Eagles scoring nine goals in the bargain, was however a delight to watch in the 1994 FIFA World Cup in the United States where he scored in Eagles 3-0 defeat of Bulgaria and helped the team claim the Africa cup of Nations in Tunisia emerging African footballer of the year.

Hi ghm52-
Everyone had good answers. I am on buspar, they are right, try to take it 2-3 times a day at the same time and either with or without food each time. It does take time to build up in your system, it took 2 weeks before I noticed it was working.I take a split dose of 10 mg 3 times a day (total of 30 mg).If your prescription says once a day I would talk to your doctor. For some people it does not work at all. It works for me so far. Hope it works for you.

Marketing for religious and cultural events can sometimes be very tricky. Businesses have to be sure to stay on the right side of a very fine line which can make it hard in preparing for the holiday season. Many religious holidays specifically have been commercialized making marketing very easy for businesses. Two major examples include Christmas and Easter. Guys like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny are not found anywhere in the Bible. There are definitely cultural stories dating back centuries that these fictional characters were derived from but the holidays as we know them today are rarely associated with religion any more, especially when it comes to holiday marketing. (more…)
With each TV commercial I watch, I wonder if I'm the target market. Am I the type of person the business intended to see the ad? When I see things like men's deodorant or baby diapers I think maybe they got it wrong but then I picture all the other types of people watching the show I'm watching: a variety of moms and dads, lounging or resting for the evening. So yes, even though the ad did not reach out to me specifically, it did reach its target.
Target marketing is more than just a concept marketers need to understand, target marketing needs to be taken from theory to actual practice. (more…)
Is media attention even helpful anymore? Whether news media on local TV at 5 p.m. or social media flooding in at all hours through Facebook, Twitter and the likes of them, information is quickly spread regarding news and events around the world. Even business reviews get tangled up in the media. We rely on this information to be in the know. We relay this information to our family members by hitting the "like" or "share" or "retweet" buttons on our favorite social networks. We talk about what we heard or read at the dinner table. Like a wildfire in a drought, this information is quickly spread to millions of people around the nation. (more…)

'Great News' cast excited for second season
September 28, 2017 06:03 PM
Imagine working in a newsroom and having your mother as an intern. That's the concept behind the NBC show, "Great News."
The season premiere is Thursday, September 28.
NewsChannel 13 caught up with Horatio Sanz and John Michael Higgins to talk about the second season.
While it's based in a newsroom, they say don't worry about getting caught up in violence or politics. This show is about the relationships.
Higgins says he loved the show from the first time he read the script.
"You know, honestly, I actually thought it doesn't sound genuine because it sounds like such a plug, but I thought it was too funny to last. I was really amused by it, which is not that usual I have to say for me. I do comedy my whole life, so you really have to do something to get my attention and boy this show got it. I thought it was hilarious," noted Higgins.
"The show is definitely the strange cousin of '30 Rock,' in a lot of ways," added Sanz.
Tina Fey is their boss on the show and real life.

Shingles is an infection of a nerve area which is characterized by painful rashes. Apart from taking medications, you must follow the precautions to promote healing while minimizing the risks.
Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a blistering rash caused by varicella-zoster virus, which also causes chickenpox.
According to CDC, 1 out of 3 people in the US have shingles during their lifetime. Seniors (60 or above) are vulnerable to shingles than other age group.
The signs of the shingles are blisters, rashes and red spots developing after the few days of pain and itching. Besides taking medications, you must follow the precautions to promote your healing.
Cold Water Bath:
Cold water is an efficient way to ease pain and discomfort occurring during shingles. All you need to soak the affected part in cold water for 15-20 minutes. However, the water should not be too cold as it can aggravate your problem. Use gentle soaps (free from alcohol and fragrances) to keep your skin moisturized.
You can take oatmeal bath which is considered as the healing bath for many skin conditions. After taking the bath, pat dry with the clean towel.
Wet Compresses:
If you can't manage to take cold water bath somehow, you can use wet compresses instead. Like cold water bath, it soothes your irritation with its cooling effect. It is very simple to use. Take a clean towel and soak it with cool water. Squeeze the water and apply the compress on your shingle for 15-20 minutes. Repeat it several times a day or when you feel intense pain.
You can add one part of vinegar to 32 parts of water for you compressing. Don't use ice packs as they can give you a burning sensation. Make sure to wash the towel or cloth after use to minimize the infection chances to others. Dry your area followed by an application of antiviral lotion.
Take Right Diet:
Stay away from the arginine rich foods like chocolate, peanuts and almonds as their amino acid can strengthen the virus of shingles. Similarly, don't take dairy products and yeast till you recover from shingles.
You must take Vitamin C food to support your immune system. Besides, it also protects your cells from damage. Taking garlic rich diet is beneficial due to its antiviral properties that ease the shingles' signs. You should keep your body hydrated by drinking 8-10 glass of water in day for better healing.
You can use calamine lotions on the affected area which is available at drug store. Always wash your hands before and after an application of lotion.
You can make the mixture of calamine, rubbing alcohol, menthol and phenol to apply on the affected parts (please consult your doctor for that). Take painkillers like ibuprofen and naproxen if you are feeling pain (Please consult your doctor for that).
Keep These Things Also in Your Mind:
Don't pick at the blisters or scratch your skin as it can trigger the secondary infection.
Be relaxed. Do meditation and breathing exercise to reduce your stress, which is essential for healing. Besides, it diverts you from the itching and pain.
Come back for treatment as prescribed in your follow-up.

Joe C. Record
62-77 -36.78 Units
We had the potential for a huge day, but overall taking the runlines on multiple games still benefitted us with a solid winning day, highlighted by a Dodgers win. Let's attempt to carry this over and keep the "ball rolling".
Los Angeles Angels (29-22) at Seattle Mariners (25-26)
King Felix at Favorables Odds
The Los Angeles Angels are a much improved team and the better team in this matchup, but with Felix Hernandez taking the mound for the Mariners, the complexion of the game changes and the Mariners have a legitimate shot at hitting the .500 mark in front of their home town fans.
Hernandez vs. Wilson
With pitcher C.J. Wilson (6-3, 3.00) pitching well as of late, this game should be a pitcher's duel, even with players like Albert Pujols, Mike Trout, and Robinson Cano in this game.
In his last 2 starts, Wilson has allowed just 1 run on 9 hits in 15 1/3 innings. For the season, he's held the opposition to a .217 BA.
For the Mariners, King Felix has won his last 3 starts and that's difficult for him to do as Seattle is known for lacking the proper run support.
Robinson Cano
At .333 and 31 RBI, Robinson Cano is hitting like he did with the Yankees. He leads the team in most offensive statistical categories except for home runs. Cano has just 2 home runs and this can be attributed to not having that short porch in right field in Yankee Stadium. Nonetheless, Cano is still a major threat in this game and Seattle will rely on him heavily.
You have to side with Hernandez in your MLB picks, at home, and with these type of odds against an Angels team which is far from elite.
2 Free MLB Picks: Seattle -128 at 5 Dimes & Seattle/Los Angeles 'under' 6.5at 5 Dimes
Cleveland Indians (24-29) at Chicago
White Sox (27-27)
The Better "Sox" Team
Surprisingly, the Chicago White Sox are having a better season than the Boston Red Sox and they're doing it with their offense. In tonight's matchup against Cleveland, we could see a lot of runs due to a Noesi vs. House matchup and because Hector Noesi is taking the mound (0-4, 6.82), you can get the White Sox at much more appealing betting price.
How Bad Is He?
It's amazing that Hector Noesi is still starting for a major league team after dropping 19 of his first 23 decisions as a pro. In that period of time, he also sports an unattractive 5.73 ERA.
If Noesi can go 6 innings for Chicago and give up 3 runs, that's a success as the White Sox rank 4th in the league in runs and 7th in batting average.
Chicago is coming off of a 2-1 victory over the Tribe in which Justin Masterson wasn't "masterful" enough. Chicago is looking to sweep this series tonight and have a legitimate shot against an inexperienced pitcher in T.J. House who allowed 5 runs and 11 hits in his last start against Baltimore. Alexei Ramirez (7 HR, 36 RBI, .324) will be licking his chops in a situation in which his experience should give him the edge even when the pitcher is supposed to have the edge.
Look for Chicago to go in for the sweep. Their offense has greatly improved and will be the difference in tonight's matchup.

It may seem like HG is referencing the Middle Ages, but back in the 1970s pasta was still a fairly exotic term while spaghetti ruled the roost when it came to Italian noodles dishes. The great wave of wonderful pasta dishes and their sauces had yet to arrive in the typical american pantry. In fact, HG first tasted penne with broccoli at Delsomma, a wonderful (alas, long closed) Italian restaurant on W. 47th Street in New York. (HG wrote about the restaurant: Gone But Not Forgotten Restaurants: Delsomma…Sept. 2011). Loved the dish and it became a mainstay in the HG/BSK home. BSK makes the broccoli sauce this way: Blanches florets and stems in the boiling pasta water. Purees some of the broccoli in the blender with chicken stock. Sautes the rest of the broccoli in olive oil with anchovies and minced garlic. It's all blended with parmesan and poured over the pasta with a dusting of red pepper flakes and chopped parsley. Mighty good. Giuliano Bugialli, the esteemed Italian pasta authority, suggests another way to make penne with broccoli, a method popular in southern Italy. The broccoli is cooked with the pasta. First, the stems are added to the boiling pasta. After two minutes, the florets go into the pot. in 12 to 15 minutes the pasta is al dente and the broccoli is cooked. Minced garlic, red pepper flakes and capers are heated in olive oil and poured over the broccoli and pasta. Showered with chopped parsley. HG will try this method but will add anchovies, an ingredient that complements the sponge-like nature of a broccoli floret.
While it may seem difficult to find a new method to making pasta, BSK did just that a few days ago: Cauliflower-bacon-penne risotto. That's right. Risotto made with penne pasta instead of rice. BSK roasted cauliflower florets with a dusting of cumin. Fried thick cut bacon to crispness. Deglazed the bacon pan, sauteed some garlic and added the bacon and roasted cauliflower. Cooked the penne like Arborio rice. In a heavy saucepan, cooked sliced onion in olive oil until transparent. Mixed the softened onions with penne. Added chicken stock. Tossed in a tablespoon of dry white wine. Brought liquid to a boil. Reduced to medium high and then simmered. HG stirred the mixture until the penne had absorbed the flavorful broth and was al dente. HG made sure some starchy broth remained to make a sauce. In went the cauliflower-bacon with Romano cheese, Maldon Smoked Sea Salt Flakes and ground pepper. A perfect dish wish a green salad and red wine. Pasta still has many joys.

French-based broadcaster Fashion TV has announced plans to open a restaurant and bar in Dubai, it was reported on Sunday.
Studio F at the Boulevard Jumeirah Emirates Towers, will be a fashion studio by day, restaurant and bar in the early evening and a late night VIP lounge by night, Fashion TV president Michel Adam said in comments published by Dubai daily Gulf News.
The 600 capacity venue will be located on the upper floor and is set to open mid-February, it said.
Adam was quoted as saying: "I am very excited by the opportunity to bring Fashion TV's after-dark energy to the Emirates in the form of Studio F.
"I feel that the market here is now ready for us having experienced our previous events in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Dubai is the natural home of luxury, fashion and style and it is fitting that Fashion TV has a new home here."
He added that with 30 high definition cameras, the studio will be able to broadcast live satellite and Youtube feeds of in-house runway events and parties to its 500 million Fashion TV viewers around the world.
In 2011, Dubai was named as the location for the world's first Fashion Hotel, with more to follow in key fashion cities around the world.
Fashion TV said it had signed an agreement with the UAE's Al Habtoor Group to build the five-star hotel but no further details have been announced.
The hotel is set to be 30 storeys high and the exterior will display a projection using a 100 metre LED screen, broadcasting the latest Fashion TV highlights, Fashion TV said at the time.
Its 200 rooms will be equipped with the latest lighting and audio-video technologies and the hotel will also have a wide variety of restaurants, bars, lounges, nightclubs, spas and cinemas, as well as fashion-themed rooms.
Launching in Paris, Europe's fashion capital, Fashion TV's initial strategy was to obtain a global dominance of the fashion-broadcasting sector.
Today, the broadcaster reaches more than 350 million households worldwide.

I tend to run quite hot anyway but am becoming very self-conscious due to my constant sweating with associated damp clothes.
If I can I'll tend to wear 'technical' tops that wick otherwise I find myself sweating then shivering with the damp. Am changing clothes several times a day despite frequently sitting beside a fan.
Suspect that my progesterone cream is unable to work due to skin being too damp for it to absorb so sometimes I just don't bother with it. In addition, my weight seems to be creeping up together with a general bloated feeling.
Any ideas anyone?

Bank of Cyprus Holdings announced it will change to the way it provides against delinquent loans on its balance sheet, which will result in the Group allocating an additional EUR 500 mln of its capital - through making additional provisions - against these risks.
The bank said in an announcement that this additional provisioning, aimed at further accelerating balance sheet de-risking, will also help the Group draw a line under its discussions with the European Central Bank on the levels of provisioning that the ECB expects to see against such non-performing loans.
"It is too early to go into detail on what these transformational initiatives could include but it suffices to say that detailed work is underway with a number of external counterparties," it said.
The Group said that although allocating an incremental EUR 500 mln of capital to de-risk the balance sheet through increased provision coverage will result in a loss of approximately EUR 550 mln for the first half of 2017, the strength of the Group's capital position has allowed it to accommodate this without the need to raise any additional core equity capital.
"The landmark EUR 1 bln equity raised in the summer of 2014 has to date proven sufficient to support the Group's recovery and allowed it support the recovering Cyprus economy. The Group does not expect to have to raise any further core equity and expects to re-build further strength in its capital base during 2018 through posting results which will reflect a more conventional credit-cycle cost," it said.
Previously, the Group had anticipated a near-zero result for the full year with its operating profits being utilised to support further balance sheet de-risking, adding that this essentially meant that any operating profits made were being utilised to increase provisioning against risk in the balance sheet.
It added that although the Group expects its operating profits in the second half of 2017 to be utilised to further de-risk its balance sheet, management expects a return to more normal provisioning levels in 2018 and, all other things being equal, to more meaningful positive profitability.
The Group recognises its role in supporting the recovering Cyprus economy through the provision of credit to credit-worthy businesses.
To this end, the Group has provided approximately EUR 1 bln of new lending to the Cyprus economy in 2016 and a similar level of lending during the first half of 2017.
"Maintaining a flow of lending, tackling legacy non-performing loans, modernising the Group, sustaining customer confidence and recovering societal trust remain priorities for the Group. The Group will continue all efforts to recover full value from delinquent borrowers," it noted.
The Group said it continues to make steady progress in its journey back to full strength. Capital levels remain adequate, deposit levels are stable and now more than fully fund the loan book and non-performing loan balances have declined steadily over the past nine quarters and provision coverage levels against non-performing loans have steadily risen each quarter.
"The operating performance of the Group is reasonable and an essential modernisation programme is underway. Management remains entirely focused on completing this journey and recognises that there is more to do before the repair can be declared complete," it added.
As at March 31, 2017, the Group's total assets amounted to EUR 22.5 bln and total equity was EUR 3.1 bln.

Pull List Roundtable 8/23/17 – Secret Empire #9, Letter 44 #35, War Mother #1, Manhunter Special #1 & More
August 22, 2017 | Columns, Features, Roundtables, Top Story | No Comments|
James Fulton
- Doctor Aphra Annual #1 – Kieron Gillen writing Dr. Aphra is never a bad thing, even though I'm not usually a fan of annuals.
- Letter 44 #35 – I'm very sad to see Charles Soule and Alberto Albuquerque's political science fiction series come to an end. This has been a fantastic read from its beginning over three years ago, back when Soule was an unknown writer. Is anyone going to survive this title? I look forward to finding out.
- War Mother #1 – I don't really understand Valiant's publishing plan lately. They introduced this character a year ago as part of the 4001AD event, but then shelved her until now. It doesn't matter to me though, I learned a while ago that if Fred Van Lente is writing a comic, I should buy it, so that's what I'm going to do.
Matt Graham
Someone remind me to not fill gaps when books cancel or end. This X-Men and Venomverse barrage is brutal on my wallet.
- Josie and the Pussycats #9 – Hot, sweet, super-cool, don't you know these kitties rule? Somebody sure doesn't. It's the final curtain call for Margeruite Bennett and Audrey Mok's world tour with the band. I don't know where this book fell on billboard charts or sales records, but it breaks my heart to see it go. With this and Jughead canned, and the sporadic shipping of Afterlife with Archie and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, I am bouncing out of Riverdale for the time being.
- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #18 – There is a part of me that wants to see Kyle Higgins given a shot at Champions or Generation X to work this same magic, but I'm cool with this take on the Rangers. Eighteen issues in, and I still can't believe that not only do I have no interest in keeping up with the recent Avengers and JLA titles, but it's the Power Rangers that satisfies that itch. This book is what I used to look to the Avengers and League for – over the top adventure, fun team dynamics and drama, and straight up superheroics.
- Red Sonja #8 – Red Sonja continues her modern day biker road trip back to Hyrkania. That includes dishing out ass kickings at every rest stop.
- War Mother #1 – I picked the one-shot up a year ago and have been waiting for her series to get back into Valiant.
- Mother Panic #10
- Generation Gone #2
- Grrl Scouts Magic Socks #4
- Cable #4

- JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS #9 – THIS IS THE LAST ISSUE! JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS has been one of my favorite comic series, so I am real sad to see it go. Not sure what's going on with Archie, but this seems like another in a series of real bad decisions to me.
- GENERATIONS: THE UNWORTHY THOR AND THE MIGHTY THOR #1 – Last week's GENERATIONS: WOLVERINE was the best one so far, but I've enjoyed each of these specials. Curious how this all fits in with LEGACY and SECRET EMPIRE.
- SECRET EMPIRE #9 – Issue 8 was basically my favorite comic to come out this year. Loved seeing the Marvel universe heading in a more positive, optimistic light for a change. Hope that they keep this up!
- LETTER 44 #35 – Been waiting a while for the last issue of this great series. Charles Soule has taken us on one hell of a roller coaster. This series started with the president receiving a letter from his predecessor telling him about an alien ship, and things have just gotten crazier since. Can't wait to see how this all wraps up.
- NIGHTWING: THE NEW ORDER #1 – Kyle Higgins returns to Nightwing in this Elseworlds story. In the future, Dick Grayson leads a powerful regime looking to outlaw and eliminate superheroes. But now this regime is targeting Dick's family, putting him at odds with the very system he created. I have no idea why Dick Grayson is being used here. This sounds more like an indy book, but I like Higgins and will definitely check it out anyway.
- DONALD AND MICKEY #1 – IDW decided to end their monthly DONALD DUCK and MICKEY MOUSE books and replace them with a quarterly anthology book instead…with a cover price of $6. Not really thrilled with this change, but I really enjoy these stories and I'm glad that IDW is continuing to publish them.
- FIRST STRIKE #2 – FIRST STRIKE is IDW's newest Hasbro line crossover. I liked the first issue, though it was marred a bit by REVOLUTIONARIES lateness making a mess of the lead in. A huge shock reveal kind of came off as a whimper here because of that. After FIRST STRIKE, the Hasbro line is getting a huge facelift with Rom and Micronauts sharing a book and GI Joe and MASK sharing a book.
- MOONSTRUCK #2 – Picked up the first issue on a whim, but I really enjoyed it. Very much in the spirit of PATSY WALKER AKA HELLCAT. Supernatural characters hanging at a coffee shop. Definitely check it out!
- WEAPON X #7 – Took a little while to get here, but at the end of the last issue of TOTALLY AWESOME HULK, the WEAPON X team has started to take shape. A little slow moving at times, but still a real solid read.
- WAR MOTHER #1 – As much as I love Valiant, I have to admit that the WAR MOTHER one-shot didn't really grab me all that much. Just haven't really liked this new version of Rai and his world. But Valiant is still one of my favorite publishers, so I am willing to give it another shot anyway.

Dollar Eases Against Yen Amid U.S. Policy Questions
NEW YORK -- Market concern over what hasn't been said about the future of the strong-dollar policy caused the U.S. currency to retreat against the yen.
The confirmation hearing Wednesday of Paul O'Neill, former chairman and chief executive of Alcoa Inc., as Treasury secretary in the Bush administration could foreshadow a new Treasury policy. So far Mr. O'Neill has left few clues regarding his stance.

Anne Arundel Farmers' Market
Yesterday on our way to dropping Erin off at a MASC event in Anne Arundel County we stumbled upon a wonderful Farmers' Market. We had some extra time and I had my camera and just had a great time wondering through the market and seeing everything there. What struck me was the variety of goods that were there and the quality. Even though I recognize that we are fully in the harvest season -so crops are bountiful and beautiful – it was really fun to see it all. Here are some of my pictures from the morning and you can gladly check out more at my website here.
Bring cash if you go – we didn't see anyone with signs for Visa/MC and check out the 3 different stands selling jams and jellies. I especially liked the man at the "Adult Jellies" stand. I can only imagine his wife over a hot stove stirring up jams with serrano and habenero chilies and then sending her husband out to sell them. I'll have to go visit again with more cash so I can sample his "Adult Jellies." The baked goods and flower stands looked amazing too. A great little road trip followed by a drive into the Annapolis waterfront makes for a fun morning!
Anne Arundel County Farmers' Market
Annapolis: Riva Road & Harry S. Truman Parkway
Saturday: 7:00 a.m. to Noon April 4 – December 19
Tuesday: 7:00 a.m. to Noon June 9- October 27
I also found a great link to a Maryland website which lists all the Farmers' Markets in Maryland!

Height: 785 m
Area: 4.12 lakh
Languages: Hindi, Punjabi, English are understood and spoken by the people engaged in tourism trade.
This is another area situated at lower elevation and is comparatively warmer but has some hilly ranges covered with Pine forests. These hills can be developed for trekking and camping during winter months. This district was made in 1972 by carving it out from the Kangra district. It is well connected by roads from all sides and thus can be promoted as a tourist destination by developing some historical and religious places. At present the known attractions are Deot-Sidh, Temple of Sujanpur Tihra and Nadaun. Hamirpur town is the Headquarter of this District, which lies on Shimla-Dharamshala road.
By Road - Hamirpur is approachable by road from Shimla, Chandigarh and Pathankot.
By Rail - The nearest broad gauge railway station is Una and nearest narrow gauge railway station is Ranital (Pathankot-Joginder Nagar railway line) and is connected by regular bus service.
By Air - The closest airport is at Gaggal which is approx. 83 Km far from Hamirpur where frequent bus/taxi service are available to Hamirpur.
Sujanpur Tihra -
24 Km from Hamirpur town and close to the district border of Kangra is the fort of Sujanpur. This place was the capital of Katoch Dynasty and the old fort is worth visiting. Popularly known along with its twin title 'Tira', this fort was built by Raja Abhaya Chand of Kangra in 1758. In the early 19th century this was the home of the famous Raja Sansar Chand - renowned patron of the Kangra School of miniature paintings. The fort has a Barahdari Hall, where Sansar Chand used to hold court, some shrines and excellent wall paintings.
There is a huge ground, where the annual Holi fair is held for 3-4 days, besides being used for sport activities. A Sainik school is also located here. It is also a religious centre. Narbadeshwar, Gauri Shankar and Murli Manohar are the three well known temples in the town. By the waters of the river Beas, the town has a charming setting and the river stretch offers good angling opportunities. This place is suitable for other adventure sports as well, such as angling, rafting and trekking.
Nadaun - It is situated on the Shimla-Dharamshala road on the banks of Beas River, 27 Km from Hamirpur town and 50 Km from Kangra. It is peaceful town with a good Rest House, an old palace and an ancient Shiva temple. This town became famous when the Kangra rulers shifted their capital here after they lost Kangra Fort to the army of Jahangir. However, it lost its glory when Raja Sansar Chand re-captured Kangra Fort and became the strong ruler of Kangra valley again. The palace building at Amtar still houses some of the paintings of that time. Shaktipeeth Jawala ji temple (14 Km) can be visited from here. This place provides excellent facilities for Mahaseer fishing in the Beas River. There are beautiful camping sites for anglers. Another attraction here is the river rafting to Dehra and further. In view of its beautiful setting, there is a famous local saying "Why he who goes to Nadaun should return?".
Deotsidh Temple - The cave temple of Baba Balak Nath is thronged by devotees all the year round. It is situated on the Dhaulgiri hills on the border of Bilaspur and Hamirpur (40 Km from Bilaspur and 45 Km from Hamirpur) and is well connected by roads from all sides. During Navratras, there is a continuous stream of visitors to receive blessings of the Baba and Government makes arrangements for stay in tented colonies and provides water, toilets and other essential services. Additional accommodation and installation of rope way to Shahtalai is expected to attract more tourists. Shahtalai associated with legends of the saint is about 5 Km from Deotsidh. En-route Deotsidh, one can enjoy pleasing sights of Bhakra Dam as well as of Shri Naina Devi temple complex. Nangal, the gateway to Bhakra dam is about 100 Km from Hamirpur.

Turkey Trot
Overcast and chilly weather didn't stop 325 or so participants from joining the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. People from Scott Valley and beyond gathered at Hamlin Gulch for the 3 mi walk/run and 6 mi run. The elementary school themed long sleeve t-shirts were sold out! Heaters were provided to keep the racers warm until the start time. Bagels, bananas, and apples were provided along with water, coffee, cider and hot chocolate.

Beach attributes
1. Trypiti December 19, 2010 20:03
Tripiti (or Trypiti) is located 73km south of Heraklion and 12km east of Lendas, in a small plain at the exit of the gorge of Tripiti (not the homonym gorge of Sfakia area). The name is taken after the church of Panagia Tripiti, which is built inside a cave at the base of the canyon.
To get there there are two alternative routes, both on dirt tracks. The first route is through a rough dirt road that starts near Lendas harbor, 6km long, and heads eastern to Krotos village. On the 2nd kilometer of the dirt road, you will find a cross junction, where you should turn right. The road crosses the Cape Trafoulas and reaches Tripiti after much dust and car-trembling, but also views of the genuine wild Cretan countryside.

Who are the Dreamers of DACA?
By: Steve Barracca, professor, EKU Department of Government and Economics
The big news out of Washington today is that the Trump Administration rescinded DACA, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. After a six-month delay, this decision ends the executive order enacted by President Obama in 2012, which allowed the children of undocumented immigrants to apply for renewable two-year work permits, get drivers licenses, enroll in college, and receive other federal benefits, while being granted a reprieve from deportation.
By ending DACA, the Trump administration places responsibility for the fate of nearly 800,000 DACA recipients in the hands of the U.S. Congress. For a good analysis of the politics and prospects of a legislative solution, see Amber Phillips's recent piece in the Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/09/05/trump-could-hand-the-fate-of-dreamers-over-to-an-extraordinarily-dysfunctional-congress/? Below I provided some lesser known facts about the beneficiaries of the program, commonly known as "Dreamers." These statistics come from Tom K. Wong, et al., 2017 National DACA Study, which surveyed 3,063 enrollees (see https://cdn.americanprogress.org/content/uploads/2017/08/27164928/Wong-E).
- Current median age: 25; Median age when first came to the United States: 6.
- Percent currently employed: 91.4.
- Percent getting their first driver's license after their DACA application was approved: 79.7.
- Of respondents currently employed, the median wage before DACA was $9.59 per hour and $15.35 after DACA. Median annual earnings before DACA were $19,000 and $32,000 after.
- After receiving DACA, 65.3% reported pursuing educational opportunities that they previously could not.
- 45% of respondents were currently enrolled in school. When asked what degree they were currently pursuing, 53% said a Bachelor's degree and 13% said a Master's degree.
- 44.6% have an immediate family member (i.e., a parent, sibling, spouse, or child) who is a U.S. citizen and 18 years or older.
