Hair Natural Treatment: How to Dye Hair with Henna
- How to Dye Hair with Henna? Basic Principles
- How to Make a Hair Mask with Natural Means?
- Best Recepies to Dye Hair with Henna
- Hair Natural Treatment against Gray Hair
The stereotype that gray hair is the first harbinger of old age, is not valid in fact, as the first gray hairs appear often already in his youth. That's just any woman always wants to get rid of this unpleasant phenomenon.
If you do not want to spoil hair with chemical dyes, you can also use homemade hair natural treatment. With the right approach, they will be not only effective, but also help to strengthen and improve the hair.
In this article, we tell how to make a hair mask with natural means.
How to Dye Hair with Henna? Basic Principles
The reduction of the hair pigmentation, which in fact is causing the gray hair, is absolutely impossible to stop. We can only slow down this process.
And women aged or for those who have a genetic predisposition to early gray hair is much easier to dye it. Using hair natural treatment, it is possible to disguise gray hair, and at the same time to strengthen and improve hair. If colorants are not allergic, then this disadvantage will not negatively impact on the health of the hair.
Selection of means for dyeing of gray hair depends on their natural color. Thus, the best option for brunettes considered Basma, and for light hair are more suitable Chamomile flowers. And those and others can use Henna.
These dyes, as well as many hair natural treatment do not act quickly, which is one of the major drawbacks of natural dyes – procedure must be repeated frequently, as their effect is short-lived.
Sometimes, to get results, you need to perform a dyeing process several times. But note that it is worth it, because at stake – your health and attractive appearance of your hair.
How to Make a Hair Mask with Natural Means?
Natural dyeing is the same as a conventional paint: prepared agent is applied first to the roots, and then the rest of the strands. After the applying of the film to cover.
A mixture of henna and basma is an universal means, to cover gray hair and strengthens it from the roots. The proportions of these substances depend on the desired result.
- So, to get a lighter shade you need to take henna twice more and keep for half an hour.
- You can obtain the hair slightly darker if you endure longer – up to one and a half hours.
- To dye hair much darker it is required one part of henna and three parts of basma. Keep the mask up to 3 hours.
Best Recepies to Dye Gray Hair with Henna
- Dye Hair with Henna and Strong Tea
If you mix henna with strong tea and apply on blond hair, you will have light chestnut colour.
- Dye Hair with Henna and Cocoa
With the combination of henna and cocoa (taking equal parts) you can not only mask the gray hairs, but also to give your hair rich mahogany hue.
Hair Natural Treatment against Gray Hair
- Dye Hair with Husk Walnut
Many brown-haired women use peel walnuts to dye the gray hair. The green husks (about 30 g) is mixed with olive oil (150 g) and burnt alum (50 g). This mask hold 15 minutes on the fire and cool down, applied to the hair. After 40 minutes, the mask is washed off and the hair was rinsed with water and vinegar.
- Dye Hair with Tea and Coffee
A few days will not be even a hint of gray hair by using hair coloring with cocoa and coffee: strong black tea combined with soluble coffee or cocoa powder (in equal amounts), mixed and rubbed into the hair, spreading over the entire length. 30-40 minutes later, wash off.
- Dye Hair with Onion Skin
Bright, slightly yellowish shade of hair is obtained if you paint your hair with onion peel. An additional advantage of this hair natural treatment – it reduces hair loss, significantly strengthening them.
Prepare coloring mask as follows: 25 gram of onion peel pour a glass of water and boil for 20 minutes. With the resulting broth daily moistened hair, till the gray hair is not lost, and the strands do not acquire the desired hue.
- Dye Hair with Chamomile
For painting the gray hair, many blonde prefer the chamomile.
To prepare the dye mask take 100 grams of dried chamomile pour 300 ml boiling water (if you take more of dry grass, the color will be darker and more intense). Insist daisy about 40 minutes, then filter and wash the head with received infusion.

My friend and September leader of the month Winslow Wheeler is now writing for Huffington Post. He points out in this article, while most Senators have no care for supporting Pork at the cost to our troops, a few Senators are showing character and leadership. One of them is Senator Tom Coburn from Oklahoma. Read on and as I do, pray we start to see some leadership regardless of short gain, for the long term health of our military and country.
Tuesday, the Senate passed its version of the DOD Appropriations bill. Bereft of a debate on Afghanistan, the Senators busied themselves exercising their default activity: porking up defense spending and slapping down those with the ethics to oppose them.
This year, the leadership of the Senate Appropriations Defense Subcommittee, Senators Inouye and Cochran, sank to a new low. But also, some events in this year's debate (actually, there was not much of that) offer a ray of hope that we may be witnessing the high tide of the Pork Uber Alles era. I provide details below. I have been asked by the Huffington Post to join them as one of their blogger/commentators. My new piece on the Senate porkers is my inaugural piece for the Huffington Post, which they are now running at their politics home page. Find it at
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/winslow-t-wheeler/support-our-troops-the-se_b_314393.html, and below.
Please feel free to leave a comment there or to send it to me directly. There is more to come on what Congress is doing to our defenses this year. I look forward to writing about this in the coming weeks.

The palace of the Queen of Light stood on a little eminence and was a mass of crystal windows, surmounted by a vast crystal dome. When they entered the portals Erma was greeted by six lovely maidens, evidently of high degree, who at once aroused Betsy's admiration. Each bore a wand in her hand, tipped with an emblem of light, and their costumes were also emblematic of the lights they represented. Erma introduced them to her guests and each made a graceful and courteous acknowledgment.
First was Sunlight, radiantly beautiful and very fair; the second was Moonlight, a soft, dreamy damsel with nut-brown hair; next came Starlight, equally lovely but inclined to be retiring and shy. These three were dressed in shimmering robes of silvery white. The fourth was Daylight, a brilliant damsel with laughing eyes and frank manners, who wore a variety of colors. Then came Firelight, clothed in a fleecy flame-colored robe that wavered around her shapely form in a very attractive manner. The sixth maiden, Electra, was the most beautiful of all, and Betsy thought from the first that both Sunlight and Daylight regarded Electra with envy and were a little jealous of her.
But all were cordial in their greetings to the strangers and seemed to regard the Queen of Light with much affection, for they fluttered around her in a flashing, radiant group as she led the way to her regal drawing-room.
This apartment was richly and cozily furnished, the upholstery being of many tints, and both Betsy and Polychrome enjoyed resting themselves upon the downy divans after their strenuous adventures of the day.
The Queen sat down to chat with her guests, who noticed that Daylight was the only maiden now seated beside Erma. The others had retired to another part of the room, where they sat modestly with entwined arms and did not intrude themselves at all.
The Queen told the strangers all about this beautiful land, which is one of the chief residences of fairies who minister to the needs of mankind. So many important fairies lived there that, to avoid rivalry, they had elected as their Ruler the only important personage in the country who had no duties to mankind to perform and was, in effect, a Private Citizen. This Ruler, or Jinjin, as was his title, bore the name of Tititi-Hoochoo, and the most singular thing about him was that he had no heart. But instead of this he possessed a high degree of Reason and Justice and while he showed no mercy in his judgments he never punished unjustly or without reason. To wrong-doers Tititi-Hoochoo was as terrible as he was heartless, but those who were innocent of evil had nothing to fear from him.
All the Kings and Queens of this fairyland paid reverence to Jinjin, for as they expected to be obeyed by others they were willing to obey the one in authority over them.
The inhabitants of the Land of Oz had heard many tales of this fearfully just Jinjin, whose punishments were always equal to the faults committed. Polychrome also knew of him, although this was the first time she had ever seen him face to face. But to Betsy the story was all-new, and she was greatly interested in Tititi-Hoochoo, whom she no longer feared.
Time sped swiftly during their talk and suddenly Betsy noticed that Moonlight was sitting beside the Queen of Light, instead of Daylight.
"But tell me, please," she pleaded, "why do you all wear a dragon's head embroidered on your gowns?"
Erma's pleasant face became grave as she answered:
"The Dragon, as you must know, was the first living creature ever made; therefore the Dragon is the oldest and wisest of living things. By good fortune the Original Dragon, who still lives, is a resident of this land and supplies us with wisdom whenever we are in need of it. He is old as the world and remembers everything that has happened since the world was created."
"Did he ever have any children?" inquired the girl.
"Yes, many of them. Some wandered into other lands, where men, not understanding them, made war upon them; but many still reside in this country. None, however, is as wise as the Original Dragon, for whom we have great respect. As he was the first resident here, we wear the emblem of the dragon's head to show that we are the favored people who alone have the right to inhabit this fairyland, which in beauty almost equals the Fairyland of Oz, and in power quite surpasses it."
"I understand about the dragon, now," said Polychrome, nodding her lovely head. Betsy did not quite understand, but she was at present interested in observing the changing lights. As Daylight had given way to Moonlight, so now Starlight sat at the right hand of Erma the Queen, and with her coming a spirit of peace and content seemed to fill the room. Polychrome, being herself a fairy, had many questions to ask about the various Kings and Queens who lived in this far-away, secluded place, and before Erma had finished answering them a rosy glow filled the room and Firelight took her place beside the Queen.
Betsy liked Firelight, but to gaze upon her warm and glowing features made the little girl sleepy, and presently she began to nod. Thereupon Erma rose and took Betsy's hand gently in her own.
"Come," said she; "the feast time has arrived and the feast is spread."
"That's nice," exclaimed the small mortal. "Now that I think of it, I'm awful hungry. But p'raps I can't eat your fairy food."
The Queen smiled and led her to a doorway. As she pushed aside a heavy drapery a flood of silvery light greeted them, and Betsy saw before her a splendid banquet hall, with a table spread with snowy linen and crystal and silver. At one side was a broad, throne-like seat for Erma and beside her now sat the brilliant maid Electra. Polychrome was placed on the Queen's right hand and Betsy upon her left. The other five messengers of light now waited upon them, and each person was supplied with just the food she liked best. Polychrome found her dish of dewdrops, all fresh and sparkling, while Betsy was so lavishly served that she decided she had never in her life eaten a dinner half so good.
"I s'pose," she said to the Queen, "that Miss Electra is the youngest of all these girls."
"Why do you suppose that?" inquired Erma, with a smile.
"'Cause electric'ty is the newest light we know of. Didn't Mr. Edison discover it?"
"Perhaps he was the first mortal to discover it," replied the Queen. "But electricity was a part of the world from its creation, and therefore my Electra is as old as Daylight or Moonlight, and equally beneficent to mortals and fairies alike."
Betsy was thoughtful for a time. Then she remarked, as she looked at the six messengers of light:
"We couldn't very well do without any of 'em; could we?"
Erma laughed softly. "I couldn't, I'm sure," she replied, "and I think mortals would miss any one of my maidens, as well. Daylight cannot take the place of Sunlight, which gives us strength and energy. Moonlight is of value when Daylight, worn out with her long watch, retires to rest. If the moon in its course is hidden behind the earth's rim, and my sweet Moonlight cannot cheer us, Starlight takes her place, for the skies always lend her power. Without Firelight we should miss much of our warmth and comfort, as well as much cheer when the walls of houses encompass us. But always, when other lights forsake us, our glorious Electra is ready to flood us with bright rays. As Queen of Light, I love all my maidens, for I know them to be faithful and true."
"I love 'em too!" declared Betsy. "But sometimes, when I'm real sleepy, I can get along without any light at all."
"Are you sleepy now?" inquired Erma, for the feast had ended.
"A little," admitted the girl.
So Electra showed her to a pretty chamber where there was a soft, white bed, and waited patiently until Betsy had undressed and put on a shimmery silken nightrobe that lay beside her pillow. Then the light-maid bade her good night and opened the door.
When she closed it after her Betsy was in darkness. In six winks the little girl was fast asleep.

ABC Computers was started in 1994 as a home based business it grew into its own storefront business. In college John had, and still has, interest in computers and has furthered his education through college courses and continuing education throughout the years. It is all about staying "On The Edge of Technology". In the early years of ABC Computers we wanted a slow firm start up process but then an opportunity to open a business in Nevada, Missouri, became available. We saw it as a good opportunity and what we were working toward. One year later, as we grew, we had out-grown our space and moved into our present storefront business at 604 E. Cherry, Nevada, Missouri.
Since we opened our experience has been shown by our increased amount of customers and clientele. We remain the only storefront computer store in Nevada. We have gained clientele such as medical offices, clinical offices, dental offices, attorney offices, industrial businesses, apartment housings, county offices, and small businesses over the years. I would like to include in this list the customers and clientele who come in as individuals, families, and other offices who bring joy to our business as well. As we have grown over the years our business has included areas outside the Nevada, Missouri, region. With satellite offices, networking, and wireless, becoming a standard of life, it all requires staying "On The Edge of Technology", which has branched us outside the Nevada, Missouri, region.
Our experience has also served our community as a resource for questions and assistance for all with their computers both old and new. Working on both old and new can consist of anything from Windows 3.11, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, NT4, Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional and Home, Windows XP 64, Windows Server 2K, 2K3, 2K8, Windows Vista, window 7, and now Windows 8. With experience comes the ability to stay "On The Edge of Technology", and serving our clientele in all stages. We do minimal advertisement and allow our service and experience to speak for itself.
We at ABC Computers have not only grown in our community but also in our family. We as a family take interest and pleasure in our community. Our purpose is to provide the community of Nevada and the surrounding areas a standard of service for all involved with our business. We enjoy and are dedicated to building long-term relationships with customers through quality training and customer support.

When my husband mentioned going to Bataan for another getaway with the girls last summer, I gladly obliged because he said that we could visit Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar. I have been wanting to visit this place because of the architectural treasures that were present here - Filipino Spanish homes relocated and restored as faithfully as possible to its original design. If you ask me, we need more places like this in our country. It's a wonderful way to appreciate not just design and culture, but our history. Behind each house is a story. Some pleasant, some not so, but it helps us understand how our story as a nation unfolded during times of war and afterwards. And it shows how Filipinos lived then and how it affects the way we live now.
Just a bit of warning before you go on - this post is full of pictures. Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar is really a photogenic place to visit. Whether you're using a DSLR camera or your phone, the photos just come to life. I am so glad we were able to visit this place last March. It was a very hot day when we went but we survived!
|Casa Mexico
The reception area for the tours is located here.
|Casa Victoria
Check out the guardia sibil behind me hehe.
|Casa Byzantina
|Inside Casa Byzantina
The priciest rooms in Las Casas are in here.
|The heat of the sun tired this little one out.
|Walking around Plaza Belmonte
|Plaza Atienza
|Casa Jaen I
|Audrey at Casa Luna
|Casa Baliuag II
|Peeking at Casa San Miguel
Our tour guide told us that the main stairs wasn't originally
located in front - but for convenience and added aesthetic,
it was placed there instead.
|Plaza Belmonte
|Paseo de Escolta
|Love this blue door!
|Such detailed ventanillas!
|An antique store
|The girls were horse-watching and decided that they wanted to ride the kalesa!
In between all of this, we took a lunch break which was quite satisfying. No photos to show as we forgot to take them! Too hungry and Natalie fell asleep already so I had no more hands to spare! haha!
We chose to eat at Cafe Marivent which offered Filipino and Spanish cuisine (since we opted not to include food in our day trip package). It was the closest resto to where we were so it was basically a no-brainer! hehe. The food was good and the servings were generous. The other two restaurants around Las Casas also offered Italian and Mexican cuisine.
|Kalesa ride!
It was quite bumpy because of all the cobblestones but we had fun!
|Happy girls!
|Hotel de Oriente
|Casa Luna
|Enjoying the jeepney ride!
We decided to take a jeepney (it's free) to go to the beach area where there
were newer but still traditionally inspired houses that catered to beach goers.
|Natalie enjoyed the jeepney ride so much that she didn't want to go down ;o
|The houses overlooking the beach
There were still other areas to explore at Las Casas but we decided to call it a day after checking out the beach area. Plaza Marcelino was just right behind but the heat of the sun just wasn't letting up.
Overall, I just enjoyed the experience. It satisfied my architectural eye candy ;) Day trip entry without snacks only cost us Php 685 for each adult and the kids (ages 2 and 4) were free. Not bad at all. I would definitely recommend a visit to this place, especially if you have friends or relatives visiting from another country.

It looks like a tough week for Bikram Choudhury.
His legal troubles — including accusations of rape — are getting a treatment familiar to the Ashtanga world: the pages of Vanity Fair. Remember that?
I wasn't going to highlight the Vanity Fair piece — a little too beyond our scope — but then I saw a related piece in the New York Times, and it feels like maybe, just maybe (emphasis on the maybe), the pasasana is starting to tighten on Bikram. Here's a bit from the Vanity Fair online excerpt:
Choudhury regularly makes outlandish, non-F.D.A./F.T.C.-approved claims for his yoga. Wallace reports that in a 2012 sworn-testimony video, and therefore under penalty of perjury, Choudhury claims that Harvard University is erecting a "Bikram building in their campus." Kevin Galvin, a spokesperson for Harvard University, responds, "We checked with our capital-projects group and can confirm that no new 'building' in the usual sense of that term is under construction funded by Mr. Choudhury or by a donation in his name."
A handful of studios, including Larissa Anderson's, have dropped Bikram from their names. "It's just really clear that there's some serious issues going on, and I didn't want to be part of it," says one studio owner who says she found it distasteful to brush Choudhury's hair when she attended teacher training, and who decided to rename her studio after the Baughn suit was filed. Then, when the three other suits were filed, she decided to phase Bikram yoga out of her curriculum altogether. "When more of the sexual allegations came out, I couldn't teach the series anymore and so I started slowly taking the classes away. I can't call myself a yoga teacher and then protect Bikram and put money in his pocket."
But it was the Times piece, "Modo, a New Version of Bikram Hot Yoga, Is Growing Popular," that really caught my attention. That despite my many protestations about the Times' influence and import. From the piece:
Moksha is not the first Bikram breakaway, but it is perhaps the most successful. Today there are 64 studios, and another 15 are to open next year.
In the United States, where the name Moksha already has been used by multiple Indian restaurants, a Las Vegas jam band and unrelated yoga studios, the studio owners in October voted to christen themselves Modo, a made-up word that stands for "the way or the path." Bikram, whose founder publicly has referred to teachers of all other types of yoga as "clowns," has some 500 studios worldwide. Mr. Williams said demand is showing no signs of cooling. (He dismissed years of published reports claiming at least 1,000 studios as "exaggerated.")
Modo's Manhattan location — students wearing recycled-bottle-cap capri pants can chaturanga on recycled-tire floors between vine-covered recycled denim walls — opened in a former D.J. school in the West Village in 2012. The freewheeling upstart yoga quickly has become a favorite of models, performers and fashion types, who praise its ability to strengthen, reduce stress and detoxify without the boredom (or time commitment) of Bikram.
Jenni Quilter, 33, said she had been to too many New York studios where "yoga just feels masochistic, like self-purification slash punishment, where no one's eaten for five months and everyone's in Lululemon." She thought Bikram was too cultish, and was wary of Modo, but promptly bought a membership after her first class.
I don't want to jump to any too early conclusions, and it isn't as though I'm anxious for this story to head one way or the other. The timing of this attention and the thrust of the Times story just seem … worth watching. In part, it is because Bikram might be the biggest yoga teacher at this point in the West, in terms of mainstream recognition. So … the twists and turns are noteworthy for those living in that mainstream world.

In the process the BOA has included as respondents the International Olympic Committee – a rare and bold move – and the Mayor of London.
The heightened action, executed on Thursday at the CAS headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland, has highlighted both the extensive tension between the BOA and Locog, two major organisations charged with delivering a successful London Games, and the embarrassing personal rifts between members of the Olympic Games board.
At stake is a possible Olympic windfall of many millions for the BOA and a much bigger independent sporting legacy fund if it can successfully argue to the court that the host city contract it signed with the Mayor of London and the IOC, as well as the associated joint marketing programme agreement it signed with Locog, should distribute profits before it includes the costs of staging the Paralympics.
"The fulfilment of this promise is so important to the BOA that we are now seeking a speedy, final and binding decision through the Court of Arbitration for Sport on how the Olympic Games surplus should be determined," the BOA said in a statement.
Locog said the dispute was a "technical point" and expressed confidence it would be resolved.
Locog said:"This will not affect the delivery of the London 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games... neither will it affect our athletes.''
If there is an Olympic surplus there is a three-way cut: 60 per cent to a trust fund to help pay for the country's sporting facilities and grassroots sports, 20 per cent to the BOA and 20 per cent to the IOC. The BOA is also entitled to a further £5 million bonus marketing payment following the success of Locog's marketing campaign, which is due to be paid from any Games surplus.
The action taken by the BOA appears aggressive, but comes as the latest government accounts show the Paralympics, universally acknowledged as a loss-making operation, will cost nearly £200million and put at risk any possible surplus.
If the court hears the case and rules in the BOA's favour, the body could benefit by £35million to £80million, and the country's grassroots sporting system and sporting facilities could be boosted by between £100million and £240million.
It is understood the BOA is planning foundation trust distributions to all of the Olympic national sporting bodies, including the Paralympic sports, if its claim is successful.
If the court rules the Paralympic costs should be separated from the Locog budget, then the government would be legally exposed to prop up the Paralympics by the corresponding amount of the Olympic Games surplus.
If it rules the Paralympics can be included in the Locog budget then there is unlikely to be any profit to be distributed. Separately, the IOC is preparing to issue its own ruling on the joint marketing programme agreement, possibly on Friday.
Further clouding the issue, the Minister for Sport Hugh Robertson declared only last month that if there was any profit from the budget the first claimant would be the Treasury.
The Government recently revised its contribution to Locog for staging the Paralympics to £95million, an increase of nearly 50 percent. This figure is publicly stated as being half the costs of the Paralympics.

Supporting Your Local Show
30th Aug 2003
If you've had a successful season with your vegetables this Summer, why not take a casual stroll through the plot and have a closer look at some of the cultivars with a view of supporting your local flower show. Summer Flower Shows in this country are part of our heritage and must be preserved as much as possible. However they can only be preserved if the likes of you and me compete in them and keep them alive. I can assure you it can be great fun and you will make lots of new friends.
You may not be too sure how to go about it, if so, the first thing to do is to find out where the show is held, who the secretary is and ask for a show schedule. The schedule will list out all the classes and you can then decide which of them you want to enter a particular produce in. Read the schedule thoroughly to make sure that you follow exactly what it says, many exhibits are often not even looked at by the judge simply because the do not conform with the schedule. Don"t forget, this is the same schedule that the judge will be using and is always considered to be the bible on the day.
Standards and Points
All vegetables are judged to two standards, ether the Royal Horticultural Society or the National Vegetable Society. Both Societies have produced handbooks that are a 'must have' for show organisers, judges and exhibitors. (picture attached) Inside the books all vegetables are awarded points according to the degree of difficulty in growing a perfect specimen with 20 points being the maximum. At the top end of the pointing system you have Onions, Leeks, Celery, Parsnips to name just a few. Towards the lower end you have some of the easier to grow vegetables such as lettuce, globe beetroot, and Cabbages, these have a maximum of 15 points.
Globe Beetroot
Initially, don"t be too adventurous, pick some of the 15 pointed vegetables or lower to start with. Globe Beetroot are a good example, they should be approximately between 50 and 70mm in diameter with the tap root intact. They should have smooth skins with no sign of scab and the flesh to have an uniform dark colour. A good tip, after washing your beetroot clean with a soft sponge, leave them soak in half a bucket of water (that's had a handful of salt added) for about three to four hours. This will remove any white internal rings and lends your exhibit more able to satisfy the criteria that the judge is looking for. The judge will cut right through one beetroot from each dish in the class to look for the absence of white internal rings. (picture attached)
Lettuce, particularly the butterhead varieties, are not difficult to grow or show provided they are at the right condition on the day. Preferably, harvest these at the last minute, to make sure they remain fresh and turgid to face the judge. Lift them with a hand fork and wrap the roots in kitchen paper, moisten and place the roots in a polythene bag. The heart of the lettuce should be firm and showing no signs of bolting or going to seed, it should be tender with the leaves unbroken and showing no signs of pest damage.
Green cabbages are usually popular at most local village shows, they should be shapely, fresh with solid well filled hearts, the surrounding leaves should be as perfect as you can get them. The bloom should be intact to indicate freshness, cut the cabbages with approximately 75mm of stalk attached (this will prove that you have actually grown them!) place them on the table side by side to face the judge. (picture attached)
People seem to think that the criteria 'Size' which appertains to show vegetables, is the most important criteria of all. 'Size' in fact is often only 25% of the overall points with 'Condition' being often the most paramount. Naturally, when two competing exhibits appear to be on par, then the adage that 'a good big one will always beat a good little one' is perfectly true. At the end of the day vegetables are for eating, and the National vegetable Society has a saying 'If you cant eat it, you don't show it'. Enjoy the experience and I hope your trug will be overflowing with prize cards.

Happy Wednesday! Hope you are having a great week! It's amazing how happiness is available all around us . When it comes to happiness you must be fully engaged in worthwhile activities. These are activities that bring you joy and and motivate you to move. If that activity is not fully engaging then you will never experience the true depth of happiness. Once the worthwhile activity has been established then you must give it all you have to live it out fully. That means good or bad you don't stop pursuing until the mission to complete your vision has been succeeded.
Thank you for reading and have a beautiful rest of the week!

It's not always obvious when we as individuals arrive at a crossroad. Decisions that seem inconsequential at the time can lead to events and situations that can be life-changing. Some crossroads, however, are quite predictable and it is useful to consider the options when we're at one. Personal character could be at stake.
Take this question: Should a high school graduate go directly to college right after high school, or should he or she get away for a year or two to accumulate experiences and perspectives from the wider world? It's a compelling question for an 18-year-old, not to mention for parents. Is it also a momentous question? Perhaps. Parents may exhibit high anxiety if the subject even comes up. Are there advantages in this competitive global economy in having had to make it on your own for a while, in going places and doing things that have little to do with advancing your career?
This week's story in the Almanac on the gap-year option looks at a few local graduates who report on how they spread out across the planet after high school -- to a game reserve in South Africa for a stint of manual labor and veterinary work; to Taiwan to study Chinese while working as a night watchman in a crowded hostel; to southern France and Redwood City as a cooking intern, and then as a student at cooking schools in Europe.
That cooking intern was Christine Rogers of Atherton, now a Stanford freshman. She is "so much more confident and outgoing than before she went away," and is now cooking for her dorm, her mother, Mindy Rogers, says.
The night watchman in Taiwan was University of Puget Sound freshman Jack Sieber of Woodside. "My parents weren't very big supporters of this idea," he says after his sojourn in China, "so I had to put up a lot of the money myself. I had to be very entrepreneurial."
Duke University senior Claire Gilhuly of Woodside says she came into college "refreshed and excited to learn," after a year in Paris studying French, and then south to Montpellier to study cooking while staying with a host family.
Few in the local community in recent years appear to be choosing such a path. This week's story noted a handful of seniors from Menlo-Atherton, one from Woodside High, two to four from Menlo School, two or three from the Woodside Priory, and four from Sacred Heart Prep.
Is there a higher priority than becoming an educated person? Maybe not, but what exactly is education, and whom should we be asking? "Education," said William Butler Yeats, "is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." From what Christine and Jack and Claire are saying and doing, that fire is inside them and it's burning brightly.
All this is not to deny the reality that conventional wisdom describes: Job hunting these days is brutal. No college degree means few prospects for a conventionally comfortable life unless you're a born entrepreneur. Good schools very often lead to good connections and a resume that survives the winnowing. Life-enriching experiences can be had after college, after all the hard work and the long hours, after winning the security of that degree, right?
The jury is out. Massive student debt now forces grads to choose jobs that may pay well but can damage their souls. Is there a college course in how to live fully? In figuring out what's important and what is not? How about a class in discovering what you really want to do, and, crucially, what you really do not want to do? There are valuable courses and important experiences to be had in college, but a great deal depends on what a student brings to it. The academy is not called the ivory tower for nothing.
"The ultimate goal of the educational system is to shift to the individual the burden of pursuing his own education," renowned educator, thinker and Stanford scholar John W. Gardner once said. "This will not be a widely shared pursuit until we get over our odd conviction that education is what goes on in school buildings and nowhere else."

Pounds obtain menopause is really a steady point as well as before very long you're regarded as overweight.

Tropical Storm Isaac could strengthen into a hurricane as it approaches the U.S. Gulf Coast, and the movement of two weather systems over the U.S. mainland will determine where the storm goes ashore next week.
The movement of the low pressure systems could cause Isaac to move a little more westward, said Keith Blackwell, meteorologist at the University of South Alabama's Coastal Weather Research Center in Mobile.
"This could keep it heading more northwest and not really recurving, and increasing the risk that it will hit a little farther west — Alabama, Mississippi, or southeastern Louisiana," Blackwell said. "New Orleans will really have to watch this."
As of 5 p.m., the center of the storm was just off the northern coast of eastern Cuba. It was moving northwestward at abouut 20 mph (32 kph), and its strongest winds were blowing at about 55 mph (88 kph).
The storm lashed Haiti and eastern Cuba with high winds and heavy rain earlier today and will move into the Straits of Florida — which separate Cuba, the Bahamas and the Florida Keys — by early Sunday morning. The storm is expected to intensify in the Straits and could become a minimal hurricane with winds exceeding 74 mph (119 kph) as it approaches the Keys late Sunday night.
Once past the Keys, Isaac will encounter conditions favorable for strengthening as it makes its trek to the Gulf Coast. Hurricanes draw their strength from ocean water that has been heated to at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit (27 degrees Celsius), and in most areas of the Gulf, the water temperature is about 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius). And upper level winds that could disrupt the storm's momentum and cause it to weaken will be minimal, which also could allow it to strengthen.
"The possibility of this thing becoming a major hurricane (with winds exceeding 110 mph, or 177 kph ) is going up," Blackwell said.
Residents of the Keys — a low-lying string of islands stretching about 150 miles (241 kilometers) from the southern tip of the Florida Peninsula into the Gulf of Mexico — were getting ready for Isaac Saturday as many tourists left the islands.
Jeff Pinkus, a resident and former mayor of Marathon, the second-largest city in the Keys, said a "steady stream of traffic" was moving northward on U.S. 1, the only highway from the islands to the mainland. Shelters also have opened for residents who want to ride out the storm in a secure building, Pinkus said.
Despite the departure of visitors, the economic impact of Isaac may not be as severe as it might have been because emergency management officials did not order a mandatory evacuation of tourists, Pinkus said.
"It takes hours for the tourists to leave and months for them to come back, so I'm sure all the businesses, restaurants and hotels are thrilled that a mandatory evacuation was not called," Pinkus said. "I'm sure there will be a party atmosphere tonight on Duval Street in Key West."
Meanwhile in Tampa, NBC News reported Saturday that Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus announced that the Republican National Convention, scheduled to begin Monday, will be postponed until the danger from Isaac is past. The storm is expected to be in the Gulf of Mexico offshore from Tampa Monday afternoon.
Although the center of the storm is not expected to cross Tampa, it could be close enough to cause some problems there, said Jeff Houck, who writes for the Tampa Tribune. As Isaac passes, it could push a mound of water into Tampa Bay, which Houck described as "a three-sided bathtub." If the storm moves slowly and happens to arrive at high tide, there could be some flooding around the arena where the convention is being held, Houck said.
"It's going to be wet, definitely wet," Houck said.
Willie Drye has been writing about hurricanes and other topics for National Geographic News since 2003. Read more about Tropical Storm Isaac on his blog, Drye Goods.

brown bag popcorn
10 comments:
Hi Ashlyn-ReplyDelete
I gotta try this and I bet it tastes better than the brand name packs.
Happy Easter.
My best- Diane
Strange timing. I just read this tip online: Buy yourself an air popper and ditch the microwave popcorn. Microwave bags are lined with a Teflon coating, known to release hazardous fumes and particles.ReplyDelete
I sent my husband an email that an air popper was on my list. We'll try the brown bag first!
looks delicious. would you believe we don't have a microwave? we do popcorn 'old-school' style on the stove top in a big 'all clad' pot.ReplyDelete
have a sweet easter, my friend.
I just finished a bowl of kettle corn...3 cheers for Popcorn..what a sweet idea.ReplyDelete
Happy Easter Weekend to you my friend. xoxoxo
Oh man, I feel so out of the blogging loop after my mini-break! I love your new header!ReplyDelete
This looks so tasty and cute! I'm starting to learn that everything in a paper bag is just better after that amazing pie I had last month.
I am absolutely going to try this! Maybe try it for my son's 6th birthday party?ReplyDelete
I am not creative in the kitchen so I am so happy when talented people give me ideas :)
Ashlyn- We use an ancient electric air popper for our popcorn. Nothing as fun as popcorn!ReplyDelete
Happy Easter!
Those look adorable and delcious. Thanks for the great idea!ReplyDelete
I have seen this way of popping popcorn but I think you've inspired me to finally try it b/c Stella is addicted to popcorn lately. We were in the grocery store recently when she saw a (see through) bag of "yellow" popcorn and asked for it. I am so bad...I just said, "ew...yellow popcorn is gross!" This would be a fun project.ReplyDelete
Tried this brown bag popcorn this weekend and it's delish!! so fluffy. Love it!!ReplyDelete

For our discussion on Cost Per Action we will continue with the example from the previous article explaining Data Driven Marketing.
Previously we completed 3 actions:
- map out every step in the sales process from beginning to end
- measure the volumes passing through each step
- measure the cost of performing each step.
For every step in the sales process we have the volumes of people passing through and also the cost associated with those people passing through our sales funnel.
To calculate the cost per action we now take the number of actions taken and divide it into the cost of achieving those actions.
For example, if our funnel over the measurement period has 10 buyers and it cost $1,000 to get those 10 buyers then our cost per action is $1,000 / 10 = $100.
In other words, on average it costs us $100 to achieve every sale we make.
Our goal in Market Domination is to drive this cost down to be lower than our competitors. We don't know what our competitors numbers are, but when you really understand what we are doing here to build the lowest cost per action sales funnel in our industry you will know that very few people are taking these actions and that very few if any of your competitors are taking these actions. Your current numbers are likely to be similar to your competitors current numbers.
The process now becomes one very similar to a Total Quality Management process applied to the sales process.
Firstly you've map out your sales process, you've measured it and costed it, and now you've got some numbers.
Secondly, break this process down into each individual product/service you provide (if you have an inventory of thousands of parts you may group the parts into categories).
In data segmenting has great power. Averages can mask many opportunities and many threats to our business.
Thirdly, we're not necessarily looking for huge breakthrough opportunities, although the process of mapping and measuring may certainly lead to aha moments, what we want to look for is how can we make small improvements in each step along the way. In a 5 step process if we can make a 10% improvement in each step of the process we end up with a 43% improvement in our final results.
The favoured way to make improvements in processes is to use split testing where possible, run 50% of the traffic through the original process and the other 50% through the test process. In the online world this can be automated, in the offline world it will require some manual assistance, for example, have your sales force work from two sales scripts, the original and a test script and they can alternate their use of the script and measure which one gives the better result.
With a cost efficient sales funnel that outperforms our competitors we are ready for the final step….pay per click with an unlimited budget.

Looks like slag from mining operations, or if you are lucky could be a meteorite. What type of area did you find it in?
i found it on a beach i am from Edinburgh Scotland where it was found there aren't any mining operations thanks for taking a look
Is it light or heavy? If it is heavy, see if it is attracted to magnets. If it is, it may in fact be a meteorite. Or it may just be ocean debris.

CFB: Dobbs carries Navy past Delaware, 35-18.
Associated Press
ANNAPOLIS, Md. Ricky Dobbs ran for five touchdowns, moving within one of tying the single-season NCAA record for a quarterback, and Navy defeated Delaware 35-18 on Saturday.
Dobbs leads the nation with 22 touchdowns and needs one more rushing score to tie the record held by Florida's Tim Tebow (2007) and Air Force's Change Harridge (2002).
Jon Stiefsky kicked a school-record four field goals for Delaware (6-4).
Navy (8-3) has already accepted a bid to the Texas Bowl.
Dobbs, who set up his third score with a career-long 46-yard run, finished with 100 yards on 26 carries. He also completed 4 of 6 passes for 78 yards, setting up two scores through the air.
After gaining just 105 yards on 22 first-half plays and trailing 9-7 at the break, Navy had 215 yards in the second half. The Midshipmen ran 51 times for 242 yards for the game.
Alexander Teich, subbing for starting fullback Vince Murray, set up Dobbs' fourth score with a 22-yard run and finished with 57 yards on seven carries.
Delaware moved the ball well on offense, outgaining the Mids 370-320 with 22 first downs to their 16, but couldn't do any better than Stiefsky's four field goals until a late fourth-quarter touchdown.
Pat Devlin completed 17 of 29 passes for 194 yards, but had no completion longer than 22 yards. The Hens' only score came on Jerry Butler's 1-yard run with 6:29 left.
Stiefsky converted field goals of 47, 39 and 25 yards in the first half, the last coming on the final play of the half, to give the Hens a 9-7 lead.
Navy opened the second half with the ball and drove 64 yards to a 1-yard score by Dobbs for a 14-9 lead.
Delaware followed with a drive inside the Navy 10, but settled for Stiefsky's 25-yard field goal. The kick gave Stiefsky a school and stadium record, the Hens still trailed 14-12 with 3:33 left in the period.

Hey, check out this new chippie design...
Hello scrappers! Check out these super-cool chippie "heart flowers" that I've used on my double layout, "Way 2 Go!" Aren't they so delicate? I love the detail and left raw, they really add just that bit extra to your page. They will be available in store soon.
Here's the layout in full...
You can double-click on it to see it properly (at the moment it's the perfect size for Barbie!). And here's just one more closie just for fun...
This was a really fun layout to do - here I've documented my daughter Lucy's big sprint race at her school faction carnival. It's the race that stops the school (so to speak...ha ha ha). Anyway it was an important event, so I'm glad to have documented all the details worth remembering.
I've also included her actual ribbon from her race on the page, which was cute to add. :)
You may of noticed that Lucy has grown quite a bit since the pic in my last post here. LOL. :D
Now scrappers, don't forget about the super duper awesome colour challenge right here! I'm hosting this month's challenge, and it's well worth a look! And a play! Really! :D
That's all for now - have a great weekend, scrappers!
Chantal :)
