The early stages of any relationship should be the most rewarding and thrilling, but no matter how caught up in the moment you are it's still possible to spot potential problems up ahead…
A lack of time keeping skills can indicate a fundamental lack of respect. It's a sign that the other person thinks their time is far more precious than yours and that immediately creates an imbalance of power. So, if your new lover has a tendency to keep you waiting, you need to get to the root cause. The occasional missed bus is forgivable, but a repeat offender flags up other issues linked to their attitude towards the relationship that need resolving.
Poor planning skills
A lackadaisical approach to planning nights out together betrays an underlying apathy towards you. Your date should be excited to plan out fun things for you to enjoy doing together – especially this early on in your relationship. If they can't be bothered now, it's unlikely they're going to improve in a few months – let alone years – down the road.
Low libido and underwhelming sex
It's usual for libido to increase during the first few months of a relationship. You may not have been together long enough to really know what makes the other person tick between the sheets, but at this stage you should certainly be having plenty of fun getting to know each other intimately. Sadly, sexual chemistry isn't something that can be engineered, so if you're not feeling it now, it's unlikely to manifest itself further down the line no matter how well you both get on outside the bedroom.
Commitment issues
While the first few weeks of a relationship are not the time to sit down and have the 'Where is this going?' chat, there are tell tale signs to look out for that reveal a lot about your partner's attitude to the future. It doesn't bode well if it's already a challenge to get them to commit to going to the cinema with you next Wednesday. Similarly, an unwillingness to engage in conversation topics that touch on issues pertaining to what life has in store such as having children or getting married should be viewed with caution.
If your new partner seems overly concerned about who you see and where you go outside of your time with them, it's a clear cut sign of jealously. It's natural to want to spend all your time together during that getting-to-know-you stage, but if your new relationship is so all-consuming that you've hardly had a chance to see close family and friends, you could be surrendering too much control to your other half. And that's never been a good foundation for a lasting relationship.

The following Storyboards were produced for the 2015 summer ad campaign for the men's clothing retailer Jacamo. The adverts were filmed in Palma Majorca by Chief Productions and feature brand representative Freddie Flintoff.

Bun B recently appeared on CNN to voice his disapproval of the Supreme Court using New Jersey rapper Vonte Skinner lyric's in his retrial for attempted murder.
It appears that the judicial system is proceeding with the scrupulous tactic regardless of the Houton native's thoughts on the matter.
Skinner was initially accused of shooting Lamont Peterson in a trial that was left without a verdict. Now that the retrial is under way, he may be hearing a different song when the new jury has their day in court.
Reports The Grio:
A New Jersey man whose rap lyrics boasted he would "blow your face off and leave your brain caved in the street" will have his attempted murder case considered by the state's Supreme Court, which will decide whether the words he penned should have been admitted at trial.
During the trial, state prosecutors read 13 pages of rap lyrics that were found in the back seat of the car Skinner was driving when arrested. The writings, some penned three or four years before the Peterson shooting, include a reference to "four slugs drillin' your cheek to blow your face off and leave your brain caved in the street."
Another passage describes a mother in a mortuary, taking clothes "red soaked ravaged with holes" and "Wonderin' if you died in pain. Was it instant or did you feel the slugs fryin' your veins."
Judge Carmen Alvarez wrote in a dissenting opinion that the lyrics' relevance in showing motive and intent outweighed their prejudicial effect on the jury, and that "defendant's songs narrated events similar to the conduct which resulted in the charged offenses."
Jeanne LoCicero, deputy legal director of the ACLU New Jersey said that song lyrics that are to be used as evidence, need to be "direct relation to the crimes committed," the same sentiment Bun B conveyed on his national television spot.
Do you feel Vonte Skinner lyrics should be used against him, even if they are of little relevance to the crime? Let us know your opinion on the matter in the comment section below.

Based on a Naaleh.com shiur by Mrs. Shira Smiles
Before Mincha on Yom Kippur, we read the maftir of Yonah. The commentators tell us that this section was chosen to remind us of the power of repentance. There are two aspects of mitzvot and aveirot. The first view is that they are meant to engender discipline and compliance. The commandments themselves aren't necessarily beneficial or damaging; it is only the results that are. The second view is that they are like a doctor's orders. Hashem tells us what is good or detrimental for us. The mitzvot have an inherent effect on us. In truth, both aspects are valid. We don't understand the intrinsic reasons for the mitzvot and aveirot, but if Hashem commanded or forbade something, it is for our good. The commandments affect us on an internal level. Mitzvot will strengthen our bond with Hashem, while aveirot will weaken it.
During the vidui (confession), we say, "Selach lanu, mechal lanu." Selicha refers to the intrinsic damage caused by sin. This is the doctor aspect. It is the facet that is connected to the reciprocal relationship between man and Hashem. Only Hashem can obliterate the internal damage of sin. Mechal is the external aspect of forgiveness. Hashem can forgive us as a king for the outer part of sin and as a father on the intrinsic level.
Repentance consists of three steps: regret, confession, and resolving not to sin again. The critical factor of repentance is that the person should not commit the sin again. Charata (regret)is intrinsic atonement. The verbal medium of vidui enhances both aspects. Confessing sensitizes a person to the reality of Hashem's presence and his responsibility for his actions. Confession makes an impression on the person, and intensifies and prolongs the effects of his teshuva. The Maharal says sin distances us from Hashem and vidui reconnects us to the divine aspect within ourselves. Focusing on charata helps us realize where we've gone wrong. Kabala al he'atid rectifies the rebellion aspect of sin.
Rav Lugasi notes that the first component of teshuva is taking responsibility for your actions. Then you can feel remorse for the choices you have taken and try to rectify it at the point of conflict. Teshuva also involves tuning into our inner voice and asking ourselves honestly what Hashem would want us to do. Our conscious makes demands on us based on our spiritual level. Once we begin to listen to this voice, it gets stronger.
The second challenge of charata is to admit our wrongdoings. This is a great level because it goes against our natural ego. Charata and vidui must be addressed on both a macro and micro level. We must look at our individual sins and at our lives in general and ask ourselves, "Is my life going to waste because of my misconceptions?" Hashem knows our innermost thoughts and can see how we feel about our sins. If we can express real charata, then Hashem will accept our repentance. Rav Tzadok writes that if a person makes a sincere commitment to change but is later overpowered by his evil inclination, he's still considered a tzaddik.
Kabala le'atid is taking one thing on a concrete level as a representation of our desire to improve. Setting up a restriction to stop us from reverting back to sin shows Hashem that we want to repent. Making small resolutions such as learning the laws of proper speech or studying a sefer on prayer are ways to arouse ourselves to change. On Yom Kippur we experience true joy. There's pure clarity as we come full circle in our relationship with Hashem. Hashem is like the groom and we are like the bride and we tell him, "We're ready to take the step forward." This can have far-reaching repercussions.
Another theme in the book of Yonah is Hashem's mercy on all of his creations. If Hashem showed compassion for a foreign nation, he certainly desires to be compassionate towards us. Yonah is read at mincha, a time of eit ratzon (favor). Yonah asked Hashem for truth and justice. And Hashem answered, "I run the world differently." Humans have physical limitations but Hashem is all merciful. On Yom Kippur, we ask Hashem to judge us mercifully just as He did Yonah and the people of Ninveh.
May Hashem grant us complete forgiveness. May He wipe our slates clean and may we merit to begin a new year filled with promise and accomplishments.

Rewarding Idiots with Democratic Totalitarianism
Rewarding Idiots with Democratic Totalitarianism
Now that the Democrat Party convention concluded their class warfare rally, those with saner minds are left with the task of identifying the magnitude of the sociopathic disease that infects the vast mindset of the worship government sect. The rhetoric of the Left has little trouble with identifying the ills of the world, but when the collectivists start to rattle off their measures to make the world safe for democracy, the ugly fascist face of totalitarianism emerges. The bond among statists, span all ideological spectrums. Commies and Nazis share the same gene. In Amerika, that same defiled DNA proliferates in all the half-wits that still believe that government is or can be a force for good. Essentially, the people are a herd of corruption enablers.
Maybe the most ridiculous spin out of the mouths of the entitlement strivers references a CNN report, that a NBC/Wall Street Journal poll showed that 0 percent of African American voters intended to support Mitt Romney over President Barack Obama. On face value, this claim is absurd. However, by digging deeper into the attitude that the mainstream media characterizes for the black community, the only conclusion a reasonable person can draw, is that the true racism resides in the controllers of the popular culture and its perverted message.
In order to appreciate the linkage between bigotry and subservience, the role of stupidity needs acknowledgment. Multitudes of all races share idiocy, often in the same way, by the institutional levers of control. The inference that any particular people would give consent to a betrayer of individual rights, based upon the shared color of their skin, is an insult to everyone.
The executive order practices of the Obama administration are inherently authoritarian. The coercion used by the State to enforce the power of the ruling elite is integral to the survival of the regime. The ridiculousness that gives fake relief and promises phony rewards, is often called - democracy.
This subject, seldom analyzed in a vacuum, takes on the persona of the ideologue. Richard Lichtman provides one such example, in an essay, Totalitarian Democracy, which cites the work of Sheldon Wolin.
"Since the time of the Civil War and the formation of the American colossus and its dual economy of corporate domination and social remainder, the course of capitalist domination has been set. Whatever further "progressive" change has been achieved has forfeited its full potentiality to the tendencies of an expanding corporate control. In this process, democracy has been more and more corrupted, as Sheldon Wolin notes in "Democracy Inc.: Managed Democracy and the Specter of Inverted Totalitarianism," a work that has been blatantly ignored.
The United States has become the showcase of how democracy can be managed without appearing to be suppressed. This has come about not through a Leader's imposing his will or the state's forcibly eliminating opposition, but through certain developments, notably the economy, that promoted integration, rationalization, concentrated wealth, and a faith that virtually any problem from health care to political crises, even faith itself - could be managed, that is, subject to control, predictability, and cost-effectiveness in the delivery of the product. Voters are made as predictable as consumers; a university is nearly as rationalized in its structure as a corporation; a corporate structure is as hierarchical in its chain of command as the military. The regime ideology is capitalism which is virtually as undisputed as Nazi doctrine was in 1930s Germany."
This topic, examined in more detail in the essay, Inverted Totalitarianism and the Corporate State, is worth a review. Mr. Lichtman being the "Predictable Progressive" concludes his remarks with a stunning attitude that perverts the natural order of the meaning of individual liberty.
"The Tea Party and other such calamitous confusions will eventually come to the sort of end that has destroyed all those who do not understand just who is the master and who the servant. But a great deal of suffering can be visited on the nation while this defeat is being enacted. Now is the time for all of us to engage in the intellectual activity of understanding what forces are in play and the practical task of forcing back and destroying the monstrous army of these protofascist directors and retainers."
Ivory tower utopians march in the ranks of statist totalitarians by choice. Many seek to lead the charge. The "rank and file" that digs the ditches, usually lacks the skills to think independently for their self. Nonetheless, they are usually the first to rally to the cause of their sanitized Führer that preaches hope and change, with every loss of freedom. No one political theory has a monopoly on despotism. Yet the "peaches and cream" slogans of fairness and equality, that come from the ultra extreme wing of the Democratic Party, out does the worst of the GOP civil libertarian destroyers.
Dumb, Dumber and Dumbest is the end product of the collectivist education system that indoctrinates impressionable brains with reverence for the dependency society. Mush minds come out of this corrosive process. Voting for entitlements and the expansion of the democratic totalitarianism becomes the norm.
The short DNC Video: "The Government Is The Only Thing We All Belong To", is an anti-intellectual message that appeals to government thugs and parasites. The underprivileged are permanent wards of the state. Those that lack self-esteem are usually products of government school pedagogy.
The Democratic Party Platform is just as immaterial as that of the GOP. However, the DemocRATS are more adapt at pushing the most collectivist policies that consistently strip away the last remnants of a constitutional republic. Democracy for the progressive statist translates into direct democracy, because they are the most adamant about open borders.
Do not deduce that RepubliCANTS are protectors of traditional values or states rights. The fusion of the despots is systemic because both power structures rely upon a false dialectic, while both just wear different style uniforms.
One of the trademarks of the presidential imposter is viewed in the YouTube, Obamas Domestic Army? Recruiting new legions of mercenaries for domestic social control, from the gangs of idle hoodlums awaiting their "just due", typifies the abnormal mindset of democratic despotism.
Watching the culture of prerogative democratic diatribes, advocating the entitlement society, could never take root unless the peasants were conditioned to demand their total cradle to grave guarantees. The pandering is intolerable. The trade off enslavement that is conditional for receiving benefits goes unnoticed to most of the bottom feeders. What little rationality and critical thinking remaining on the Progressive Left, erodes with every election cycle.
The remorseful lesson that the majority of voters fail to admit is that the election pageant never provides the alternative to rid the country of collectivist politicians. The obvious reason is that the dependent masses crucify any candidate that dares champion the principles of liberty and personal responsibility.
The Democratic Party is especially adept at pimping for the welfare state. The utter failure of the crazy schemes, self-indulgent programs and social benefits, at taxpayers' expense; has primed the public for surrender. Sacrificing individual dignity is a small price to pay for a place in the government check queue. The dire net results from the "Great Society" are all around us. It resembles the conditions that gave rise to Charlie Chaplin's, The Great Dictator.
Ironically his egalitarian political views, lent criticism that he was a Commie. From Chaplin's famous speech, his words run amok, when applied to the requirements of the Democratic Totalitarianism that now engulfs every aspect of the Obama version of socialism.
"Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines. You are not cattle. You are men. You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate - only the unloved hate. Only the unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers - don't fight for slavery, fight for liberty."
What kind of conduct should you expect from a Reich that wants to field an AmeriCorps, civilian national security force. This is the Obama standard for pledging your "Good AmeriKan" credentials for a national socialist passport. Have we not learned from the European experience? The oath to the psychopathic beloved leader is creating our own domestic holocaust.
The idolization of Hitler is reminiscent of the flaunting over Barack Hussein Obama in 2008. Today, there are no excuses for not knowing that this demigod is a tyrant or that his plan is to enslave the nation. Pride in America the Stupid is a badge of admission to the Democrats Delusional Worldview. The Democrat convention of 2012 is just as pathetic as that of the GOP. The language and emphasis may seem to differ, but when you strip away all the empty words, you have a phony competition to head up the omnipresent corporate state.
The ruling class and the suck-ups that pledge their allegiance to a State adoration, despise the defense of liberty. The metaphysical question of our age is, Why are we here? How will you answer this eternal and political question? It is evident how the useless-idiot will respond.

- Cabrera, Rleal Optioned; Loewen, Rodriguez Recalled
I have to admit, it never occurred to me that Daniel Cabrera might get sent to Ottawa. But Adam Loewen has shown that he has little to learn in the minors, even if the results have yet to be there in the majors. Plus, recalling him will have no substantive effect on his service clock, since he's up for good next year anyway. And Cabrera has regressed quite a bit this year. Rich Lederer wrote a blurb on this topic that prety much sums up how a lot of people feel about Cabrera's performance this year. He's still a big part of what this rotation could be, but there is no masking how disappointing his season has been. Finally, I have to admit that I am impressed that the organzation followed through with their decision Whether or not you deem the move necessary or not, it is encouraging to see an Orioles administration with the fortitude to make potentially unpopular decisions because they believe them to be correct.
As for Rleal getting sent down, it's about time. He's a flyball pitcher who walks a lot of batters and doesn't miss bats. I'll admit being a staunch spporter of his in the past but, lets face it, I was wrong. Eddy Rodriguez, on the other hand, has been lights out in Ottawa this season. He's striking out over a man an inning, has a newfound respect for the strike zone, and has yet to allow a home run in over 36 frames. He's held righties to a .307 OPS and has excelled in close and late situations. He finally appears poised to shed his perennial project label.
- Jim Bowden the Genius
I'm sure you've read about how Wayne Krivsky is an idiot and how Jim Bowden actually ripped someone else off for a change, so I won't bore you with any self-evident analysis. But my friend text messaged me the other day with Why don't we have Austin Kearns? and it got me thinking. Kearns' value had never been lower than after last season. He was jerked around from the minors to the majors and back again and ended up posting career lows across the board. Yet, statheads looked at his excessively low batting average, consistent batted ball data and sustained secondary hitting skills and remained united in their optimistic outlook for his future. Thus far this season, he's justified that faith and what happens? He gets traded for some middle relievers, a good relief prospect, and one present and one future utility player. Oh, and he was only part of a package that included the 26 year old reigning silver slugger at shortstop and a 23 year old pitcher that took about a week to reach the majors. Quite simply, a lot of things would have to go wrong for the Nats to not get the best of this deal now and later.
I'm not trying to insinuate that the O's are any more guilty of any other non-Bowden team, but Kearns would be a pretty tasty fit on a club so devoid of OBP as this generation of birds. And if seemingly all it would have taken was some combination of LaTroy Hawkins and/or Kurt Birkins… then doesn't it make you whince just a little bit that someone else beat them to the punch?

I started with a bride-shaped, champagne-shaped (does anyone else pronounce that sham-PAG-na to remember how to spell it? no?), and cake-shaped cookies cutters, both regular sugar cookies dough and chocolate sugar cookie dough, and a super duper floured surface.
I despise rolling out dough. This is one of the main reasons why I don't use fondant. Well that and the nasty taste. But I no less dislike rolling out cookie dough. And I rolled, and rolled, and rolled. For days. But then I had lots of cookies!
Yum! First I outlined all of them with royal icing and got to work decorating.
I'm very serious about my decorating. I had two colors of sugar sand, markers, royal icing mix, gold and silver powder (which amuses me for the warning label that says non toxic but not recommended for consumption;), color gels, little sugar ball things...and more. And the vodka was legitimate decorating. You have to mix the gold and silver with clear liquor to make a paint. I also made some buttercream as an alternate to the royal icing.
I was really annoyed to remember that buttercream always comes out rather yellowish (duh) so I added some blue to cleverly come up with the sea green the groom wanted (but did not get) for the wedding color. Sadly none of the buttercream frosted cookies took to my decorating techniques very well. Obviously I couldn't send those. So I ate them. Oh the sacrifices!! I used the food safe markers for most of the decorating. Mostly I just doodled but the bride cookies got a lot of poetry. Some of my favorites:
Shame my handwriting isn't better.
Homage to my other blog!
I used the chocolate dough exclusively for this topsy turvey cake shaped cookie cutter I got for Christmas. The cookie cutter came with three decorating mats for use with fondant (yuck + rolling = no) or buttercream. The buttercream just didn't work out for me so for these also I used royal icing and food markers.
I was pretty happy with these.
Also, can I say how awesome it is that I used both a bottle of vodka and the Bible for decorating? 'Cause it is awesome.

Fossum Wins Highest Engineering Prize
Professor Eric Fossum, inventor of the CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) active pixel image sensor that is in every modern cell phone has been awarded the world's highest engineering honor, the Queen Elizabeth Prize in Engineering. Modeled on the Nobel Prize, the £1m award recognizes innovations in engineering that have globally benefitted humanity.
Fossum shares the prize with co-winners George Smith, Nobukazu Teranishi, and Michael Tompsett, who invented other key elements of digital imaging technology. Fossum, Teranishi, and Tompsett attended the announcement ceremony Feb. 1, 2017 in London, where Princess Anne represented her mother, the queen. The winners will be presented with the prize at a ceremony at Buckingham Palace later in the year.
Though Fossum is no stranger to recognition—he has been inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors, among other distinctions—the award seems to have taken him aback. "All I can say is, holy cow, this is the biggest engineering prize in the world. This is utterly fantastic, and, to use the vernacular, I am gobsmacked. It's really astonishing. It's terrific and, well, I'm speechless," he said at the conclusion of the announcement ceremony.
When Fossum invented the modern image sensor while working at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, his original goal was to miniaturize cameras for use in space. He ended up changing everyday life on Earth. Each year more than 3 billion cameras are made using CMOS image sensors, which are now essential to the worlds of entertainment, automotive safety, medicine, science, security, defense, and social media.
"Like most engineering achievements, mine came by standing on the shoulders of earlier engineers' accomplishments," Fossum told the Thayer community at a reception in his honor. "The QE Prize this year is a good example of that. George Smith co-invented the charge-coupled device or CCD at Bell Labs in 1969 along with the late Willard Boyle. Shortly thereafter, Mike Tompsett, also at Bell Labs, figured out how to use the CCD as an effective solid-state image sensor in 1970. When CCD technology was picked up by Japanese consumer electronics companies, many improvements were made. The best of these was the invention of the pinned photodiode by my friend Nobu Teranishi, then at NEC in the early 1980s. This device allowed much better low- light performance. The CMOS image sensor, developed in the 1990s at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, used an active pixel with intra-pixel charge transfer to allow a micro-CCD in each pixel and permit good imaging performance in a baseline CMOS technology process—the same as mainstream microelectronics. The idea really took only a moment to come into being once I asked the right question, common with many inventions. And then it took a team of people to put it into practice, both at JPL and later at our spinoff, Photobit. After that, thousands of engineers around the globe continued to improve the technology and bring it to the level of the performance you find today in your smartphone."
Now Fossum and his PhD students, including Saleh Masoodian, Jiaju Ma, and Dakota Starkey, are working on what may be the next major breakthrough in imaging technologies: a quanta image sensor that can count every photon for use in low-light conditions. A Dartmouth spin-off company is in the works. In addition, Fossum, who joined the Thayer faculty in 2010, is sharing his entrepreneurial expertise as director of Thayer's PhD Innovation Program and as the newly appointed associate provost for Dartmouth's Office of Entrepreneurship and Technology Transfer.
"All of you know something about Eric," Dean Joseph J. Helble said at the Thayer reception. "Few of you know how transformative his work has been, and how deeply engaged he is in the life of this university. Eric, we are deeply honored to have you at Thayer, and proud of what you have done as an engineer for the world."

Contributed by Michelle Griep
Every now and then a question gets flung at me, kind of like those suction-cup arrows from a kid's bow and arrow. Currently I've got one sticking to my forehead, and here it is . . .
"Action scenes. Dear gosh. I cannot for the life of me write an action scene. How do you do it?"
Great question. I learned mostly by doing it wrong for my first few manuscripts, so I'll save you the trouble of bad writing on yours.
7 Ingredients in an Action Scene
Use short sentences.
Keep them choppy. Keep them fast. This is action, folks, not verbose Austenesque description. Think about comic books. Bam! Wham! Kerplow! Not that you need excessive amounts of expletives. I'm just saying short sentences are like the shrapnel in a writer's arsenal.
Tug the heart strings.
Make the scene personal to the reader, yes, even if it's a velociraptor eating a protoceratops. How? Liken the protoceratops to a fuzzy, little kitten. That will hit home to every reader's heart — even cat haters like me.
Keep it in real time.
This is not the time for backstory or too much internal monologue. Nouns and verbs, baby. Nouns and verbs. Keep the action popping like a bunch of popcorn kernels. Cut any unnecessary details.
Instinct over intellect.
This is also not the time to have your main character thinking lofty thoughts about what's going on. Keep it primal. Gut reactions. No philosophical rants.
It's got to be plausible.
Too many over-the-top stunts won't work. In order for a reader to believe in the scene, the action has to be credible. No one can fight a vampire, zombie, and Chuck Norris while suffering from the ravages of a hemorrhagic fever, no matter how awesome a hero they are.
The stakes have to be believable.
No hero is going to risk his life for a lollipop — unless it's plutonium in disguise and the world will blow up if he doesn't. See what I did there? I went from unbelievable to believable. Do that. The stakes have got to justify the action.
Add in a time bomb.
Sure, you can use a real one, but a proverbial deadline works just as well. Your character needs to have a timeframe in which to vanquish whatever nemesis they're facing in order for the reader's heart rate to increase.
My biggest piece of advice is to write the scene as you see it in your head then edit it later. Get it down on paper first, then go over it with these ingredients in mind.

Greetings & Salutations my Friends! It is so good to see you again!! Your presence is always welcome.
It has been brought to my attention how my Essential Oils have been changing my life & that it may be time to share some of what I've learned & how I'm using it.
Let's start with why my husband suggested this subject for the blog.
Where I work is having a Halloween potluck & I decided I would bake some cookies. I do enjoy baking!! So, I found a recipe for a spice cookie, added chopped apples & topped with a salted caramel. Everything went well until the caramel. I melted the caramel, added the salt & a tad bit of milk. When it was thoroughly mixed I applied it to the top of the cookies.
Near the end I managed to spill some of that hot caramel on the index finger, left hand. Boy, that stuff was HOT!! I managed to get it off that finger onto the middle finger, right hand. Now I'm caught. I have to prevent the caramel from dripping any more from the cookie, but the fingers felt like fire!!
Finally, finally I was able to devote full attention to the fingers. Ran cold water over them for a bit, then grabbed a couple of those plastic ice cubes & held on tight. I went through 4 pairs before the fire in the skin was finally out, especially the middle finger.
Shortly after it was time for my nightly routine. One of which is to apply a 2% blend of Tea Tree Essential Oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) & Grapeseed Oil to the skin tags on my neck area & the acne on my face. I had started with a 1% blend & noticed a difference. Also, there were no adverse effects from using the Tea Tree Essential Oil. Grapeseed oil is a great carrier oil. I've noticed it absorbs quickly, without any greasy residue. (Check out my entry on Sunday, July 9, 2017 for more about Tea Tree, also known as Melaleuca Oil.)
I was already using Tea Tree Essential Oil & Peppermint Essential Oil blended in baking soda & corn starch as my deodorant. I've elected to stop using store bought deodorant due to the link to breast cancer. The powder mixture helps absorb any moisture throughout the day. The Tea Tree Essential Oil increases your sweating to promote toxin removal. The Peppermint gives the blend an uplifting aroma for the day.
But I noticed that some of my skin tags were disappearing. I knew Tea Tree Essential Oil is good for the skin, it helps open pores, but I did not expect it to affect skin tags.
That's when I made my first batch of 1% Tea Tree Essential Oil & Grapeseed oil. On my right hand was a small skin tag. Light brownish in color & a bit of rough skin. My husband had also commented on how my age was starting to show on my hands. I made my blend & started applying 3-4 drops a day to the back of both hands.
I don't keep very good notes, so I don't know how long, but that small tag fell off the back of my hand. It's gone. My husband has stated the age spots are being invisible. That's when I decided to apply it to other places on my body.
I noticed some tags shrank & went away. I've also noticed others showing up. I kept applying the 1% blend, maybe once a day. When I finished the first bottle, I evaluated & decided to increase the percentage & make it my habit to apply twice a day.
Ok, I say all that to say that when I applied the Tea Tree Essential Oil to my tags & face, of course it was absorbed into both burned fingers. Since the pain was gone & they weren't too tender, I didn't give it any thought.
This morning, I was doing something, I don't even remember what, when I noticed the blister on my middle finger. It didn't hurt, I just noticed it looked strange. I took a closer look & can tell how the hot caramel had been strung on my finger. A little squiggle of a blister. But it doesn't hurt.
As for applying it to my face, well, I have clearer skin than since before I was pre-teen. When I have an eruption of the facial skin, I'll use witch hazel on my face after cleansing it. Witch hazel is a natural astringent, healing the small blood vessels in the face. Once the eruptions are clear, then I apply the 2% Tea Tree Essential Oil blend. This opens the pores to allow dirt & toxins out. A side effect is it appears to be lessening the wrinkles on my face. I know, boo-hoo, right? Lol
Another area I have continual issue with is my ears. Oh my gosh, the itch that has developed in them! And I mean for years!!! When it first developed was probably about 8 years ago. I told the doctor I was seeing at that time about the itch & how petroleum jelly seemed to be the only thing to ease it. Well, he prescribed something. Only thing I remember is that it did help.
Then about 6 years ago I changed doctors & told this one about the itch & prescription. He tells me to go to the health food store & purchase Florasone cream. The difference it made from the very start was amazing!
Now fast forward to February 2017. I flew up to Montana to meet my new grandchild. Stayed a week & then flew back to SoCal. Within a day or two of arriving home my ears started to ache. Both of them, but the left one was the worst. I went to a local urgent care. Received some anti-biotics (the strong ones, the z-pack) & some ear drops. About 5 days later I'm back at the urgent care, still in pain. They gave me an even stronger anti-biotic & more ear drops.
This seemed to help some, but in about 10 days it was back again!!! So, one more trip to this urgent care. This time it was a steroid shot. I do not recommend them. It does appear help ease the other pain, because those things hurt!! For days!! Unfortunately, it did not actually alleviate the ear aches.
I had started my Essential Oil & Aromatherapy store by this time. I was researching how the oils could aid in a more natural healing. As I spoke about in a series of 3 blogs, when the student is ready, the teacher appears. (See 9/3/17, 9/16/17 & 10/1/17 for the whole story.) True to this, my niece from a previous marriage happens into my life at that moment. Why is that important? Because it so happens she has been using doTERRA brand Essential Oils for many years. (Keep checking back. I'll have her story to share soon.)
From our chance meeting at breakfast one morning we made a date for another day. I went to her place to learn more from her. She explained how applying Sweet Basil Essential Oil, neat, from just behind the ear lobe, down along the neck allows the oil to soak into the eustachian tube. (Never place any Essential Oil directly in the ear canal.) Once in your system Basil Essential Oil's antibacterial/analgesic properties & how it improves blood circulation can start helping you feel better.
In my research of the causes of ear infections, I learned that many times the cause of the ache is not necessarily an infection. It could be water trapped in the Eustachian tube. This would cause severe discomfort & irritation. But doctors are trained to prescribe antibiotics for the littlest thing & we've come to expect that little dosage to fix us. I had already taken some of the highest antibiotic dosages & a steroid shot & nothing changed. I needed to do something different.
So I decided to make a solution of hydrogen peroxide & isopropyl alcohol. Each morning, noon & evening I would put a drop in each ear. I would listen to the peroxide bubbling in my ear. It tickled, too. But I waited for the bubbling to stop before applying to the other ear. Then I would apply the Basil Essential Oil to my neck, along the Eustachian tube. It only took a day or two for the pain to finally be gone. Finally, relief. After a few more days I could tell it the ears were clearing. The peroxide wasn't bubbling as much or for as long.
During this ordeal I noticed how much more my ears were itching. On one of my trips to urgent care I asked a doctor about the itching. He said it was most likely eczema or psoriasis & all I could do is keep applying the Florasone cream.
After I used my peroxide/alcohol solution I noticed the itching lessened dramatically. I thought about the Florasone cream & wondered if there was an Essential Oil that could help also. In my research on Peppermint Essential Oil (See 5/28/17), I found that Peppermint is a natural hydrator for your skin & a natural remedy for fungal & bacterial infections. I decided to add a couple of drops to my Florasone cream.Just for clarification, I do not place the cream inside my ear. I get a little on a Q-tip & apply it to the inside of the tragus. (Circled in red.) I also make sure to get some on the inside crease (lined in blue).
Since using this combination I have almost eliminated that itching. I have noticed this is not a cure. If I go too many days without using the cream, then the itching comes back & I have to start the process over again. First the solution, then the cream.
Well, that's a couple of my favorite recipes & how I came to find them. I'm putting together a book of my recipes & how to blend them. Keep an eye out for it.
Until next we meet, may you Be Blessed.

Two historic buildings...
This bedding shop in Truro was the Sunday School for St Mary's Church before the Cathedral was built. In the sixties it was still used as a church hall. It was somewhere that The Reaction played early in their history, and in fact the band was formed from the meeting of two Truro School boys and two Truro Tech boys in the youth club there. Roger Taylor also recorded with Jill Johnson's group the Jays in this building.
Immediately opposite (in the Guild of Ten building (below)) was The Riverside Cafe which was the favourite haunt of The Reaction and The Jays when they weren't playing. If anyone has any photos of these buildings as they were in the 50s or 60s please get in touch email@example.com

On my trip to London this year, for the launch of my installation at the Tate Modern, I went to the Houses of Parliament. I watched a debate on education and children, and was deeply impressed.
It was a perfect model for democratic practice. Of course, every society has its own problems, but I think Britain is a society where important issues can be discussed and politicians can constantly adjust their positions in order to improve conditions.
As David Cameron arrives here, he should understand that China is a nation that still has very limited freedom of speech and access to information, and which does not have public elections for its own leaders or an independent judicial system.
When you have strict censorship of the internet, young students cannot receive a full education. Their view of the world is imbalanced. There can be no true discussion of the issues.
The Communist party benefits the most from China's so-called development, and despite the economic growth a lot of people still suffer misfortunes. All those problems became even stronger when China was struggling to be the labourer of the world market.
Now all the nations of the developed world are trying to do business with China. Of course, it's an arrangement in which both sides profit. But on the Chinese side it means more unfairness to labourers and damage to the environment. This kind of business is done through the sacrifice of basic values and human dignity.
People are not looking for mercy, but we think the world has to become unified. You cannot simply give up fundamental beliefs in human rights for a short-term gain.
This kind of thinking will cause tragedy in the future. It is going to be a strong challenge for the nations of the world to survive economically and at the same time protect civilised values, which come from the long struggle of science and humanitarianism.
We see the tendency in the world to criticise democracy and sometimes even to say that authoritarian countries like China are more efficient. That is very short-sighted. China looks efficient only because it can sacrifice most people's rights. This is not something the west should be happy about. In a town like Guangzhou there are thousands of workers who suffer injuries such as losing fingers in work accidents. They are on low salaries. They have no future.
Since the global economic crisis began, the change in global attitudes is clear to see – and I think it is pitiful. Barack Obama came to China and he is probably the only president of the United States never to mention the words "human rights" in public. You see it in France, with Hu Jintao's visit last week. How can people be so short-sighted? How can they betray those basic values?
Now the British are coming. I think Cameron should ask the Chinese government not to make people "disappear" or to jail them merely because they have different opinions. No nation can survive and meet the major challenges if it does not have people with different opinions. China should have an open society to discuss different issues and ideologies. It cannot just put its best minds behind bars. There are too many cases where this is happening.
Cameron should say that the civilised world cannot see China as a civilised country if it doesn't change its own behaviour. I don't believe that these are western values. These are universal values. No one is forcing China to accept values from outside – they are just asking it to listen to its own people.
• Ai Weiwei, co-designer of the Beijing Olympic stadium, is due to be released from house arrest in the Chinese capital tonight at midnight

Grappler Gouf (グラップラーグフ Gurappurā Gufu?) is a character from Superior Defender Gundam Force.
- Grappler Gouf is very skilled at using his sword, which has a jagged blade. Grappler Gouf also uses a shield that can attach to his right shoulder armor. This shield has two extend-able blades that can function as a claw. Grappler Gouf once used a yellow bazooka, called the Rubber Bazooka Beam Cannon in the TV series and is called the Gum Gum Gun in the Collectible Card Game, which can fire a beam that causes whatever it hits and anything nearby to be encased in a yellow, rubber ball. However, Grappler Gouf's main weapon is his modular left arm, which can be swapped with two different forearms. The first and most seen forearm is an enlarged black claw with four long blades which can be flexed like fingers that can be used as a grapple. This claw has a length of wire inside that is attached to the rest Grappler Gouf's arm, which extends when Grappler Gouf fires his claw. The second arm appears similar to Grappler Gouf's right arm, but contains a missile launcher inside the forearm and a targeting reticule that extends from Grappler Gouf's thumb. The missile fired from this missile launcher can move to avoid getting hit by enemy fire. The missile launcher is also used when Grappler Gouf performs the Final Deadly Screaming Chaos Catastrophe.
- Grappler Gouf once piloted a Jet Board that had a gatling gun and numerous missiles. He also has been a pilot for a Big-Zam three times.
- After Zapper Zaku got rid of most of the Dark Axis' weapons, Grappler Gouf used a stolen V Rod in a fight with Captain Gundam during his second mutiny attempt.
After Zapper Zaku's two defeats, Grappler Gouf was sent into battle. He is easily the most intelligent and level headed on the invasion force trio (though still prone to silly antics), with ambitions to eventually take over Sazabi's position. After Sazabi's defeat, he and Destroyer Dom secretly got on board the Gundamusai in an attempt to rescue Zapper Zaku. They failed and were likewise drafted.
Notes & Trivia
- Grappler Gouf is based on the MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom.
