Iodine, My experiences with lugols solution
Hi , my name is bob, i started out doing research for high blood pressure and allergies on the web. i tried fresh garlic which seemed to help but the odor was too offensive to everyone around. i continued searching and began to research iodine. this is when i came across lugol's solution. i did a lot of research on the web and came across some interesting claims as well as some facts. the claims are that lugol's can cure almost anything , here is what i have discovered. lugol's solution is 5% elemental iodine and 10% potassium iodide. the japanese eat lots of seaweed a which containes potassium iodide and have less disease like breast and prostate cancer (google this for yourself!) ,iodine is anti viral,anti bacterial and anti fungal ! iodine has been shown to cure cystic fibrosis ! lugol's solution has been around since the 1800s and used with success in tratment of illnesses. now , these things being said , i have personally taken lugol's solution, i began starting slow, 2 drops to a glass of distilled water. i increased over a period of a week to 8 drops twice a day, this is approx. 50 mg a day. i took this amount for about 3 - 4 weeks. I then lowered it to 4 drops a day as a maintenance dose. the result has been interesting. after taking 50 mg a day for about a week i felt like i did when i once took a very strong antibiotic. then that went away after a day or so. i felt like i had a chronic illness removed , i dont know what else to say about that. i had acid reflux when i started but it is now gone!! my blood pressure was 140/90 and spiked to 170/105 at times, it is now 125/75 on average , sometimes lower! my allergies are doing much better as well. i had insomnia and sleep apnea (caused by allegies,nose colapsing) i have no more sleep apnea due to allergies and no more insomnia! something else too, remember i said iodine was anti viral? well , my dog came down with the parvo virus, the vet said that the dog needed to stay for treatment. i didn't have that kind of money, so we brought the dog home. now, my wife loves that dog and i knew i had to do something, so i tried the lugol's solution. the vet had given the dog a shot for nausea, so she would be able to drink and keep it down. i started giving her 2 - 3 drops of lugol's in a syrenge with distilled water. in about 4 days she was up and playing again, it was amazing. now you might think this was a fluke but listen to this, another of our dogs started to vomit and show all the symptoms of the parvo virus. i began putting lugols in the dogs drinking water and she recovered as well. the third dog never developed symptoms and im convienced it's because she drank the same water. now i dont know about you,but im certain there is something to all the claims. if i find myself feeling ill ,i up my dose a little, thats for sure! think about this too, aids is a virus, i wonder what effect lugol's solution could have on it, you can bet, if anyone i know is unfortunate enough to contract that disease, ill ask them if they would like to try it. also if that does ever happen, i will publish the results. so in closing i say, do your own research and make your own decision, im including a link to where i buy my lugol's solution and im in no way affiliated with them.
We have been giving our small dog lugol's for 6 months. her belly used to rub the ground she was so fat. now i can put my foot under her belly and she is acting more like a puppy again!
she is getting old too.
She jumped from the floor to the couch yesterday! something she hasn't done in years!
If you like this Hub, Please support it by clicking on
the google ad's, thank you!
I've been taking 4 drops of Lugol's Solution a day and it has increased my energy and stamina. Also has helped with my insomnia.
It is quite clear that generally the population is iodine deficient because of the lack of it in our diets and also because of the iodine antagonists such as bromine and chlorine. However please look at Alexander Haskell's tube on Iodine Supplements - a Warning. He gives the dangers, one of them being the possibility of suffering from Hashimotos. He recommends only 3 mg of iodine a day. Please note I am in no way in expert far from it and have only just started studying the subject. Definetely a subject worth pursuing.
I see lots of comments about sleep here. Anybody had sleep apnea confirmed by an overnight sleep study and then solved their apnea by use of iodine? If so, what are you taking and what dosage? Thanks
I have been using Lugul's 5% 8 drops a day for about a month now. I worked my way up to 8 drops, so all together using Lugul's a couple months. I recently stopped my thyroid meds to see if the iodine was working, as I feel so much better. I am also taking multivitamins, Vitimin C, B2 & B3. My vitamins already contain the recommended dosage of selenium. For the past few nights though I have had trouble sleeping. I have no problem going to sleep, but wake up and never hit deep sleep. Will this pass, or should I reduce the amount of drops?
what we cant eat with lugol's therapy?
There are some interesting closing dates on this article however eecggagbddgd
I just searched Dog Iodine Candida overgrowth, and your Hub came right UP!! My Miniature Schnauzer itches all the time. I've spent so much money of pills from the Vet! Right now I give her Benedryl to help her sleep during the night and not itch. You have sold me on this Lugol's, and I will buy some and give it a try!!
Voted UP etc. and shared.
So how does this work ion otherwise healthy adults. I have high blood pressure and am on medication, have some joint issues as an older athlete, acid reflux and sometime sleeplessness at night. Is this stuff related to quinine?
Hi, I take the lugul's solution 5% and have been doing it for about a month now. For a short period of time I did switch to nacent iodine. I went back on the lugul's because it gave me energy, ability to focus better, helps depression and I also lost a few pounds. It is awesome! And I only take one drop still in water in the morning, sometimes I will have a glass in the evening if I have something to do.
I have been dealing with unexplained fatigue for a long time. Chronic fatigue symptoms. The doctors have done many tests over several years but have not found the reason for the fatigue. A few years ago, I noticed that my temperature was lower than it used to be. Many days it would be in the low 97's, sometimes 96's. Even though thyroid tests showed "normal range", because of my research, I suspected "sub clinical hypothyroidism". I found out how iodine deficiency is linked to so many ills including hypothyroid and that the US RDA is too low since the japanese take in much more than Americans are are healthier in many ways. I first started taking kelp tablets but instead of taking one tab like the bottle said, I took like 10 a day. In 3 days, I noticed my temps up in the 98's again, something I haven't seen in years. I switched over and I started taking "iodoral" tablets which are supposed to be pretty much the same as lugols but in tablet form. I started taking 50 mg for a while and now backed off because I eventually wasn't feeling as good, probably detoxing from bromide, etc. My temps are still consistently higher than before and reach the mid 98's but they still fluctuate a lot. It's been about 3 months since I started and in time, I hope for my temp to stabilize and my thyroid to work better. I'm a believer in Lugol's solution or other similar iodine supplement. It will be interesting to see what it does for my health long term. I may have to try some Lugol's soon when my iodoral runs out.
Shuten Jay, where do you get your iodine crystals and potassium iodide?
Just curious, I was considering taking the Kent Marine Lugol's Solution - Saw that Linda had purchased some but hasn't posted anything since?!?! Has anyone else taken the Kent's Marione LS? And if so what was/is the dosage that was taken.
Sick and Tired of BEING Sick and Tired
Thanks to all for the information. Shuten Jay, how do you make your own Lugol's Iodine?
I prefer to make my own lugols iodine, because you can make it as stronger as you like (=
My TSH report came back 4.6 and was told it was hypothyroism. I purchased J. crow's Lugol's Solution 2%. Should I of gotten 5% instead or can I have results from 2%. Also how often and how many drops...I have read so many different reports and would like to hear from someone who has tried this and had positive results.
I started lugols 5% 2 drops in am and 2 in pm about a week ago--immediately felt more energetic--not falling asleep after a simple low carb meal as b4. my blood pressure was hi and i was taking eggplant water 3x a day to help and it did as long as i checked and repeated dose when it was hi which it was always after 3 or 4 hours.( i've been waiting for my magnesium oil to come, anticipating that helping lower blood pressure.) today, however, i only took one dose of lugols because i actually forgot the second does. strangely, i didn't have to take any eggplant water all day--as i checked 3 x and blood pressure was normal-had no idea that iodine may help--i must add that i had been eating raw cabbage salad with other veggies for breakfast for about 6 mos and recently found out that may have been decreasing my energy level because of some ingredient in raw cabbage--as i was tired and sluggish and wondering why. i stopped eating raw cabbage about a week ago, as well. now i steam it. anyway, now after reading this blog, i'm realizing that the luguls, which i started taking to increase energy, may be beneficial to reducing blood pressure as well. AMAZING--iodine, used by the Creator for our body development really has a huge purpose. Makes lots of sense!!!
Hi there
Well after much investigating on the internet, I finally have 5% Iodine 10% Potassium Iodide. Due to the restrictions imposed it is becoming difficult to get full strength Lugols. I have no connection with this company so take it or leave it...but if you want to buy it at this strength and having trouble..its www.strideintohealth.com. Im interested in how others are progressing..so keep up the posts.
Fascinating. I prefer sea salt which doesn't include iodine and was wondering what the benefits are.
Should I buy the 2% or 5%? I'm a small person (underweight due to digestive issues, heavy metals, and gut infections), but I also have hypothyroidism. Will Lugol's help with the above issues? How much do I take, how often, etc??
Bob: I saw Lugol's Iodine 2.2% solution for $14.63 for 8 ounces.
how would this compare to J Crow's?
I plan to take it soon and want to make sure I get something that works for my sleep apnea and hypertension, arrythmias and shortness of breath :-)
Hi there,
Please somebody tell me for how long Lygol's solution lasts once you open the bottle.
Thank you very much!
I use Lugol's to steralize my vegetables. Six drops in a pan of water for 5 min's kills all the harmful bacteria and viruses. If I get an upset stomach from food (belching, gas and pain) I take six drops in a glass of water and in 10 minutes it's gone.
I have Hypthyroidism and am taking 300mg of dessicated thyroid a day. I have seen an improvement but the there seems to be something else missing. I decided to try Lugol's. I read that you can use Kent's marine Lugol Solution. I found it on a fish tank supply site - 5/10 solution - for $10.99 1 oz bottle. Free shipping for orders over $75 (US), so I ordered 8 bottles. I'll start the therapy and see if I can reduce the thyroid meds.
Hi Bob I have been taking Lugols (4 drops) since December 2010. Vertigo was a constant problem for me (due to stress) also allergy to sulphur and penecillin for approximately 27 years.
Since starting Lugols I have not had one attack of vertigo and I have eaten garlic (sulphur) with no anaphalaxis. Another plus is that there is no depression.
Fantastic so far so good
i always mix mine with water or juice and drink it.
I have the Lugol's 2%..how do you take the drops? Orally or topically (on the skin)? Thanks!
I just starting using the 2% yesterday, I noticed right away I had extra energy and slept like a baby..So far so good
I just ordered 3 bottles of Lugol's. 2 at 2% and one at 5%. I hope to start self treatment ASAP. I am HIV+ and have high blood pressure. BOTH can use a little help right now. If my blood pressure is reduced significantly I may be able to go off the pill and I can substitute this in stead. (I will tell the doctor this time first...)
I also have low body temperature but never knew iodine had anything to do with it. My hands and feet are frozen 10 months of the year. The slightest temperature change agitates me. My only comfort zone lays between 68 and 72 degrees. If this is helped I will throw a party! LOL
I started using Lugol's Iodine after my husband and I both had a sibling die with cancer and from the horrific effects of "standard practice" medicine. I have COPD and a history of frequent respiratory infections that were treated with antibiotics. Being so close to cancer forced me to look closely at allopathic medicine and research an alternative. I only take one drop of Lugol's twice a week, in a glass of distilled water and organic apple cider vinegar. I also eat raw seaweed every day and use it in cooking, take Limu (fucoidan from seaweed) daily and only eat organic and raw dairy. I am mid 60s, weigh 112lbs, have not seen an MD for over 5 years, have had no colds, flu or other infections even though I have nursed sick grandchildren, am active and energetic. I have promised myself that, barring an accident, I will never take prescription drugs, or any drugs, again and stay away from doctors - including xrays, MRIs and mammograms. I would say that Lugol's and seaweed should be part of everyone's life if they are interested in good health.
very helpful comments - was hesitant about trying lugol's due to iodine/thyroid and potassium/heart side effects but don't read about any of these things happening - thx
Have been feeding Lugol's to both our dogs for some time now. Lipoma in one has definitely decreased and both are like pups.
I dose them by adding it their water, then pour a couple of tablespoons of organic coconut oil on the top. They both dance waiting to get to the water! So 3 benefits - lots of water, coconut oil & lugols.
i have suffering from sleep apnea many years. exidentaly i found out that few drops of lugol at evening without any water eliminates my night apnea. first time i sleep
normally! no nightmares, pounding heart,and brithing disorders.my blood pressure became 120/70 instead of 145/90.
to be shure that it is effect of lugol, i try to stop intake and immediately sleep apnea comes back.
i try also to replace lugol by kaliumiodide supplement
(drug's name is "iodine ballance") but no result.
only lugol works very well.
please inform me if any one knows how long time i can use
lugol? (sorry for my bad english.)
I've read the above posts and I am starting Lugol's 2% tonight. I have been on iodine (regular strength) for about 2 weeks now, and cannot see a difference. Hoping Lugol's will make a marked improvement in health (hypothyroidism, high blood pressure, fatigue, weight gain, dry skin, low body temp, etc.) I'm starting with 8 drops 2x per day since I have already been on iodine for a while. Thanks for all the input. Will keep in touch.
Thanks for that! Can I ask why your magnesium is at 800? wouldn't it be need to be even if not more a little more say 1,600mg and then 1,200mg calcium? Just from what I researched i thought it needs to be a bit more if not even, depends on your exercising? Would love too hear your thoughts! Thanks
Oh, lol, no, like building up too 8 drops, currently it's my first week and struggling a bit and hesitant and hopefully stay on it for 3 months, done a lot of research aswell! Can I ask what your diet was like during iodine intake? Healthy diet or casual with some deserts in eveynow and then? And your supplements if you don't mind asking during the iodine intake? I read you need too supplement with Selenium and if the iodine effects are too bad vitamin C or the Salt procedure stops/slows the side effects.. Thanks again mate
Thanks mate, making my own hub soon, been using 1 drop a day on lugol 5%. Thanks again:)
Did you use the 2% one or the 5% one?
The reason the FDA is trying to ban Lugols 5% is because Iodine is capable of curing so many things, and the last fucking thing big pharma needs is a cure all on the market.
pull your head outta your ass woman!
It tastes so nasty, how did you get your dog to take it. It gives me heart burn.
one percent is making meth and 99 % suffering from terrible condition, related thyroid problem, that lead to cancer. GET YOUR MATH AND FACT
Lugol's is NOT used to make meth.
Get your facts straight
To Linda Santini: the reason why the FDA is trying to ban Lugol's Solution is because it is widely used as an ingredient in making crystal meth. Get your facts right.
I'm doing the samething, I have a very starved abandoned cat that has a big throat tumor, and maybe hyperthyroidism, I'm going to give her lots of lugol's and see what happens. I suspect the tumor may actually shrink!!
I have been wondering if iodine may help both myself (hypothyroid) and my cat (hyperthryoid). One theory for cat thryoid disease online was that it was caused by flame retardents in carpets and furniture, and they wash themselves so they get a high dose. (...and according to Dr. D. Brownstein, the bromide toxicity may cause iodine utilization problems, if I recall correctly.) Has anyone tried iodine supplementation on a hyperthyroid cat? Some holistic docs give it for autoimmune thryoid disease (obviously with the doc monitoring for issues that might come up).
thanks for the info, i have read that iodine helps regulate body temp. glad to hear about your experience, sounds like its true! i have been supplimenting with magnesium lately, this is after a 30 day course of probiotics. i am now convinced we all need probiotics to replinish our good bacteria , this helps absorb vitamins and minerals. i also think we should suppliment all water soluble vitamins and minerals every day, i am feeling so much better these day. our diet of processed foods and no whole fruits and veagtables is making us all nutriant deficient
I'm on Iodoral while I'm looking into buying Lugol's Solution. I have hypothyroidism and since I upped my dose of Iodoral to about 50 mg. a day, my body temp has gone up. It used to be so low, often in the 96-97 degree range, I don't know how I got out of bed. I was always cold. Yesterday at the doc's office it was 97.9 - best ever! And it's only been about a week on the 50 mg a day. No wonder Big Pharma is conspiring with the FDA to try to ban Lugol's Solution (and no doubt they'll try to ban Iodoral next) - iodine/potassium iodide is cheap and effective and actually restores people's health. What the FDA and drug companies are doing to the American people is just so evil.
I have been taking Lugols Iodine since July 2009, i use to help against hot flushes whilst going through the menopause - I started by just taking 5 drops in a morning - i have upped the dose and now take on average 10 to 12 drops daily. I no longer have hot flushes either at night or during the day, my general well being is so much better. I was recommended the solution by a clincal reflexogolist who swears by it. I am so glad I went down the more holistic avenue, rather than the drugs offered by my doctor - who at one point suggested anti-depressants!! No thank you.
Hi - I think you meant "fibrocystic" (as in, fibrocystic breast condition) and not "cystic fibrosis."
hi bob!!
if it is good enough for you it is good enough for me

Effectively Using Problem Review BoardsIT lives in a technical world where complexity and coupling increase each day. Inherent in this world are problems that must be managed in order for IT to achieve its objectives. To do so effectively, enterprises should create problem review boards.
George Spafford
At this point, three keys terms should be clarified: 1) Incidents are any deviation from the standard operations of a system that could, or does, cause a service interruption; 2) A problem is the condition of having multiple similar incidents, and 3) a known error is the identified root cause of a problem.
As complexity increases, the percentage of total system understanding held by any one IT person will decrease. This is because the level of expertise to build complex systems demands the involvement of multiple parties. There just is not an alternative realistic option. Whether developed entirely in-house, out-sourced or some combination thereof, there are multiple people, even multiple organizations, involved.
Correspondingly, when incidents or problems occur, root cause analysis demands review by the parties with the appropriate expertise. For example, to build a large mission-critical clustered server, there will be involvement from the vendor(s) of the hardware, the software vendors, internal software development, IT engineering/release management teams, security, operations and so on.
Problem Review Boards (PRB)
In the same manner that there are change advisory boards (CABs) for updates to production systems, there must be a parallel group(s) reviewing incidents to determine trends, problem identification and ultimately root cause and mitigation.
Depending on the complexity of the organization, there may be one PRB overall or a PRB per system. For that matter, some organizations may be so small or simple that, for whatever reason, they do not need PRBs. In those cases, it is recommended that they still understand the ITIL Problem Resolution processes and adopt best practices into their organizations. For organizations with complex systems, regardless of size, the implementation of PRBs need to be seriously considered.
The goal of the PRB is to govern problem management reactively and proactively. This is done through analyzing incidents as they happen, reviewing historic trend data and staying abreast of current industry news and vendor updates. For example, a switch may not have failed yet, but your PRB may know of an operating system bug that had been identified and eliminated by another organization using the same switch. Hence, it would be advisable to assess risks and determine the best means to modify the switch and mitigate incident risks proactively.
Continue on to find out how to structure a PRB....

We all have our guilty pleasures when it comes to spending. For some, it's a weeklong vacation at the end of the year. For others, it's the latest tech gadget or a new piece of furniture. Splurging is fine as long as you plan for it, but living outside your budget is a recipe for credit disaster. Stretching yourself too thin can lead to overwhelming debt, unpaid bills and credit score damage. Ironically, many of the things we spend too much on have two things in common: their prices are variable, and they are often used as status symbols. When it comes to saving money, it's important to value utility over style and popularity—especially if you are working to improve your financial life. Give these money-wasters a second glance. The result could help you strengthen your resources.
Organic food.
High-end grocery stores tend to boast about their fresh organic produce and other products. Fair enough, but what does "organic" actually mean? According to the USDA,
"Raw or processed agricultural products in the "100 percent organic" category must meet these criteria:
- All ingredients must be certified organic.
- Any processing aids must be organic.
- Product labels must state the name of the certifying agent on the information panel."
On the other hand, products that are labeled "made with organic ingredients" only require 70 percent of their makeup to fall into that category. The bottom line: Health is important, but investing your money in expensive food should result in a worthwhile payoff. Do some research to avoid overpaying for your groceries.
Private education.
There are a few good reasons to choose private education for your child:
- The school fosters your religious ideology of choice
- The public schools in your area offer sub-par curriculums or are located in a dangerous geographic location
- The teacher to student ratio is generally better in private school
Private school is a perfectly valid choice for any family. That said, it's important to consider all the options surrounding your child's education. Consider the following example:
Michael and Cara Elison have three children, ages 9 to 14. The family has recently relocated to Naperville, Illinois, a community known for its excellent public school system. Although the Elisons previously sent their children to private school, they do some research to learn more about the schools in their new town. Much to their surprise, they are impressed with the public schools and decide to opt out of private education.
Education is important, but as the Elisons learned, it's important to take a closer look at your choices. The result could allow your kids to reach their goals without emptying your bank account. Open your mind and consider your options.
Décor and electronics.
Sure, a custom upholstered sofa and a 60-inch flat-screen are desirable, but at what cost? The price of "stuff" is variable, and you should never spend $100 when $10 will do. Keep your credit health in mind when shopping for the perks. This strategy will help you keep your priorities in check.
The ultimate status symbol: a big house. While lenders are imposing stricter rules when it comes to mortgage qualifications, they still can't stop you from getting in over your head. When shopping for a home, ask yourself the following questions based on need:
- How much square footage do I need? (e.g., if I live alone, why do I need four bedrooms?)
- How much money do I need in the bank? (How will a down-payment affect my emergency fund?)
- How will an inflated mortgage affect my ability to meet less-negotiable needs? (e.g., electricity, student loan payments, medical insurance premiums, etc.?)
A good rule of thumb: Keep your housing costs low by multiplying your gross income by three. For example, if you earn $70,000 per year, you should shop for a house priced at $210,000 or less. Signing up for a mortgage is long-term commitment; don't allow excess to ruin your budget.
Getting from Point A to Point B should never require unmanageable debt. Sure, you might want a flashy, impractical piece of machinery, but what does it mean for your credit and finances? Why saddle yourself with a $40,000 BMW when a $24,000 Mini Cooper offers many of the same perks (and is also manufactured by BMW, by the way). The bottom line: On the road to credit repair, simple math is your best friend. Shrug off temptation and stick to what you can afford.

I think this was one of the most fun book projects yet! Bennett (2 yrs old) absolutely LOVED it! He still wants to add to it a week later. We read two different books this week. One for Will's level and one for Bennett's. The greatest part was that Will was able to read Bennett's book to him! Bennett's book was "Butterfly Colors and Counting" by Jerry Pallotta. It is just what it says each page has a certain color and number of butterflies.
Will's grandma read him "Houdini" by Janet Pedersen. This book is about a classroom pet caterpillar who loves to perform for the children. When the children stop noticing Houdini's usual tricks he needs to come up with something really great. Can you guess what his trick is?
This project came once again from I Heart Crafty Things. Like I said it was a huge hit! I just love to look at it on my wall, too.
One sheet of Contact Paper
Various colors of tissue paper cut in squares
One pipe cleaner cut in half
2 wiggly eyes
Brown Cardstock (cut into butterfly body)
Glue Dots
Washi Tape or Painter's Tape
Sharpie Marker
First, draw a butterfly shape on the paper side of the contact paper. I'd suggest using a pencil first (I did not and wished I had). Trace over the pencil drawing with a Sharpie marker. Now flip the contact paper over to the other side and trace the outline you made on the opposite side with the Sharpie again. Set this aside for now.
Cut the brown cardstock into a butterfly body that extends all the way from the top to the bottom of the center of your butterfly pattern. Using glue dots attach the wiggly eyes and draw a smile on your butterfly. I raided my huge tub of tissue paper I've saved from gifts and (with the help of the neighbor girl) cut them into strips and then small squares. I used about every color of the rainbow.
To get ready to create your butterfly, peel the paper off the contact paper and attach it sticky side up to the wall using washi tape or painter's tape. I found that painter's tape ended up working a little better. Be sure to attach it to the wall at your child's level. Stick the brown butterfly body right to the contact paper. It will just stick!
Now have your children create a beautiful butterfly by sticking the tissue paper squares all over the butterfly. Show them how to stay within the boundaries of the black outline and to vary the colors.
How many times do you think I cleaned tissue paper up off my floor? LOL! Bennett loved to hand me the tissue paper and have me put it on, too. We worked on naming the colors as we did each square. This is a skill we are still working on since everything is still "lellow". Will helped a little bit, but wasn't quite as interested in this project. He likes to help his kid brother so that is sweet.
Here is the best picture we could get of the final product! We have kept it up by our other artwork board. I love looking at it everyday! I highly recommend to give this project a try!

Adults, kids and families across the country are converging upon a new group activity, where they must work together to solve a series of riddles and problems to decipher clues that, eventually, help them escape a room. Teamwork, creative thinking and risk taking are just a few of the skills needed, and in the end, most report that the experience is great fun.
So now, teachers are applying that concept to classroom activities, and last week, we had the chance to see Mrs. Silver's 4th grade students work through their own version of "The Escape Classroom."
Perfectly timed for a Friday afternoon after a week of state-mandated testing, the students were definitely ready for a challenge and a change of pace. In the Clarks Creek LGI (Large Group Instruction) room, they found a series of tool boxes. But they were locked! Students pulled a folded sheet of paper from a bowl, studied the word on the paper, then found 3-4 others with a synonym to their word. That formed their small group and the first piece of the challenge. But there were more, and more complex, challenges to solve.
Students also had two toolboxes to unlock before advancing to the final locked box, "The Key Challenge." Clues along the way had to be decoded and then recoded, eventually leading students to the code that would unlock The Key Challenge.
Observations from this untrained observer? What a great way for students to engage in learning while burning off pent up energy. The power of collaboration and teamwork is impressive. Fourth grade students are clever and smart and think critically and creatively. And having fun while learning? Priceless.
The materials for "The Escape Classroom" were purchased by the school for classroom use, and Mrs. Silver was one of the first to put it to the test. Given her success, I dare say many other students will be telling their parents about their own experiences as the year continues.

Shooting and editing winter #photography
Winter photography can be difficult because there is a lot less light. You can make the sensor on your camera more sensitive to light by increasing the ISO. You can also use wider apertures than you would in summer.
In bright sunlight, you might use ISO 100 and an aperture of F16, in poor light that will give you quite a dark picture. You can choose to have it lighter by increasing the ISO to 200 or even higher and making the aperture wider maybe to F8.
This is the same picture that I started with, but I have edited and increased the contrast and made it a little lighter. In winter when we spend less time out of doors, we can spend more time editing and experimenting with editing techniques to produce photographic art.
I used PhotoScape (free download) to edit this image for a more artistic picture and besides changing the colour, I added a texture. PhotoScape gives you lots of options and you can even turn your photograph into a pencil drawing. You can also convert your image to sepia or greyscale.
This edit of my photograph of Hydes Pool in Wednesbury has a texture and I gave it more contrast and made it lighter. It's still a winter scene but light enough to see the detail. Try to be aware of the colour of the sky when taking a shot like this, black rain clouds will reflect on the water and make the picture much darker.
Snow scenes are popular in winter, but try to choose a scene with lots of texture and variation. You might need to edit to get the scene just the way you want it too. Snow reflects a lot of light and so an ISO of 100 is usually fine for a shot like this and narrow apertures can be used in daylight.
The Midland Metro
It was very cold and dark when I took this shot. I have edited it so it's lighter and added a texture. It is the Midland Metro which runs from Birmingham to Wolverhampton.
Have fun taking your winter photos and if you would like to follow this blog just enter your email address in the space at the top of the sidebar or follow me on Twitter for updates. You can also see more photos on my Facebook Page.

''Gedächtnis'' "memory" + ''Esser'' "eater") is an octopus-like [[Wesen]] that first appeared in {{ep|401}}. ==Characteristics== Gedächtnis Essers possess an extremely severe [[woge]]. They lose all their hair, their skin turns a fleshy pink with a dark maw, and they grow multiple tentacles. Of these tentacles, they have four main ones which are longer than the rest, and each tentacle is covered in multiple suction cups. They use the four tentacles to burrow into the back of their victims' heads to steal their memories; exactly how it works is unknown, but it is theorized to have something to do with the electrical charges of the brain. Victims are left with severe swelling around the hippocampus and other parts of the brain that deal with memory, and they are left with no memory of who they are, in a state similar to advanced dementia. If the process of them completely stealing their victims' memories is interrupted, however, Gedächtnis Essers will still maintain whatever memories have been stolen up to the point of disruption, but their victims will also retain theirs, albeit while being momentarily disoriented, as was seen with both [[Kent Vickers]] and [[Trubel]]. ==Behavior== Gedächtnis Essers sometimes use their ability to steal memories to take over their victims' identities. Due to their unique skills, they also often work in espionage. It takes considerable effort for them to process these stolen memories. Furthermore, it seems the memories extracted from a [[Grimm]] will leave them in a traumatic state, given the violence that Grimms often inflict upon Wesen. Consequentially, they are quite fearful of Grimms. ==Excerpt from [[Grimm Diaries]]== {{diary|''It is not known how this Wesen removes the memories. Only that it can. I surmise it has something to do with electrical charges in the brain. After an attack, the victims are usually diagnosed with advanced dementia.'' ''From interviewing some of these unfortunate souls, I can see why -- this is one of the most heinous Wesen I have ever encountered.'' ''They rob the victims of their very lives by stealing their past and leaving them void of any human connection. Devastating to their loved ones and leaving the victim unable to identify the attack or the attacker. Justice within the confines of the law is therefore impossible.'' ''I witnessed this Wesen attack a woman -- four of his tentacles pierced the back of her skull.''

(Sharecast News) - Keywords Studios has bought Canadian audio description services company Descriptive Video Works for CAD3.2m.
The company, which provides technical services to the video games industry, has bought the Vancouver-based business from founder Diane Johnson. Founded in 2003, it provides audio description services for broadcast and over the top streamed programming, feature films, documentaries and live action series as well as live coverage of prime time events such as the Olympics for NBC.
In the year to 30 November 2018, the business generated adjusted pre-tax profit of CAD0.66m on revenues of CAD 2.2m.
Keywords chief executive Andrew Day said: "In 2018, Keywords and Descriptive Video Works collaborated on a transcreation project in which a major video game franchise was made ready for OTT streaming in an interactive format and we were really impressed by both the team's capabilities and how well we worked together.
"We are delighted to welcome Diane and the talented DVW team to the Keywords family. We are looking forward to supporting the accessibility needs of the film, TV and video-games industry as these markets continue to develop.

Maybe not news to many. I know since this park was built there has been talk about MTB there. I contacted Jim about my concerns with the lack of single track MTB in Wilco. While LGT is great, I'd like something more south in the county.
Per Jim Rodgers, Wilco Parks and Rec Director, "The area at the Southwest Regional Park (see A on the attached) on CR 175
between Round Rock and Cedar Park will be for MB when built. We will have
to work around an endangered species area to get to the MB area but I think
we should be able to have some singletrack trails as you describe."
I hope that area is not exactly to scale...pretty small. Plus Q and O offer more elevation and the creek.
He is also interested in hearing more about suggestions for adding bits of singletrack along the existing Brushy Creek Regional Trail.

QUOTING QUIVERFULL is a regular feature of NLQ – we present the actual words of noted Quiverfull leaders and aks our readers: What do you think? Agree? Disagree? This is the place to state your opinion. Please, let's keep it respectful – but at the same time, we encourage readers to examine the ideas of Quiverfull honestly and thoughtfully.
Nancy Campbell from Womens Daily Devotionals
Thanksgiving is Family Time. That doesn't mean to say that everything is always perfect. There are often relationships within families that need to be healed. This can be a time for forgiveness, healing, and restoration. And this is what our God is all about.
Because God is God, He is a God of justice and judgment. We don't receive God's forgiveness until we come to Him in repentance and humility. But when we take the first step of repentance God comes running as He reveals in the story of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32).
Isaiah 55:7 says, "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for HE WILL ABUNDANTLY PARDON." God not only forgives, but ABUNDANTLY forgives and pardons. In the Hebrew it actually means that He will MULTIPLY THE PARDON!
We should have the same spirit. Let's not hold back forgiveness when someone shows even the slightest turning toward us. Let's be like God and ABUNDANTLY forgive. When they take the first step, let's take 99 steps towards them!
There is nothing so beautiful as humility, forgiveness, healing, and restoration. It is the lifestyle of the kingdom of God.
Love from Nancy

|For thousands of years, writers who wished to be
great knew they had to revise, revise, revise.
I can understand this. When I first jumped into writing a novel, I knew I had a lot to learn, but I was confident in my basic writing abilities and eager to get started. Now, more than two years later, I'm still learning. In addition to gaining skills in characterization and plotting, though, I have learned (or re-learned) some hard truths along the way about the writing craft, facts that each writer must deal with along the way if he or she is to persevere and succeed. Here are some of them.
Good writers are made, not born.Brett Favre did not throw a touchdown pass the first time he picked up a football, Thomas Tallis did not make the angels sing the first time he hummed a tune, and Flannery O'Connor spent years revising her work to produce the weird, wonderful tales for which she is famous. They all may (or may not) have been loaded with natural talent, but even they had to devote years to developing their skills. They learned from others with more experience, and heeded expert advice in order to improve, and then they practiced, practiced, practiced. The rest of us must do the same. It requires a lot of humility to become a good writer.
Learning to do anything well takes time.Probably the most useful thing any of us can learn is this: learning takes time, and it involves a lot of failure. Did Mozart walk away in disgust the first time he hit a clinker? Even Shakespeare was once a schoolboy, learning how to write a decent sentence. Every experienced writer will tell you that your first draft, no matter how carefully planned, is likely to be pretty awful, but that's what revision is for. The first draft is like that lump of clay the potter throws down on his wheel — it has to be shaped and reshaped before it reaches the perfection the artist envisions. It takes a lot of perseverance to become a good writer.
It's not as easy as you think.Learning anything new is uncomfortable at first. Learning to write is not as simple as learning to swim, it's more like learning to build a bridge, or to dance the lead in Swan Lake. A lot of different skills have to be learned and practiced endlessly, a lot of basic principles need to be internalized through that practice. It's hard at first, but gradually what seemed complicated and unnatural gets into your mind's "muscle memory," and you'll be able to do effortlessly those things that, when you are starting out, must be done deliberately with great care and a lot of painful toil.
You should start small and build your skills, and your confidence.Remember those projects you made in junior high art or shop class? The soap dish painfully modeled from clay, the wooden plaque you made for Mother's Day? Your teacher knew that you needed to start with something small, so that you could enjoy the feeling of accomplishment that would spur you to take on bigger challenges. I'll bet the greatest cabinet maker probably started out learning to plane wood and create a single dove-tailed joint. Many beginning writers would do well to start with small projects — a paragraph or two for the parish newsletter, a well-crafted blog post — before taking on more complicated ones. After two and a half years of working on my first novel, I realize that I probably should have started with a short story. So I've put the novel aside for a while, and I'm devoting my creative energies to producing a good short story suitable for publication.
Writing is a process, not an event.I've written about this before on this blog, but I'll mention it again now, because this is the biggest mistake inexperienced writers make — they quit before they are finished. I used to run into this attitude with my students: "I got it turned in on time, so I'm done." But my job was to teach them not just to meet deadlines, but to write something worth being read, so I had to walk them through the whole writing process, which often took weeks: first comes invention, when you discover what it is you want to say, and how you want to say it, then drafting and revising, learning to see what is working and what isn't, what needs to be trimmed out and where you need better details or more explanation, how your ideas can be better organized to make a clearer point, etc. And only after that has been done should you worry about grammar, spelling, punctuation, and all those other nit-picky details that put the final polish on the piece. If you try to skip parts of the process, it will show.
This is another reason I put my novel-in-progress aside for a while. I could see that I would need to write at least one more complete, fresh draft before I would be ready to revise and polish — the process seemed that it would never end, but I really, really wanted to finish. I need the feeling of finishing the process, but I knew I couldn't rush it — so I set the manuscript aside and started something new (much shorter), and have been using what I learned from novel-writing to draft and polish my short story. In this way, I hope that taking the time and care to produce one well-developed, carefully polished short story will help me make the next draft of the novel my last.
Sure, I could have done what too many people do these days: I could have set some arbitrary, self-imposed deadline for myself and scrambled to meet it, convincing myself that the book was done (in fact, I did that, when I submitted the third draft to a prize competition last year). I could have said my novel was "good enough," and self-published it on Amazon. But I know it's not yet ready for prime time. I've stepped away from it to be able to return to it with a fresh perspective, to be able to see it with the "fresh eyes" that are so crucial to recognizing any remaining deficiencies.
If you want help getting fresh eyes on your own Work-In-Progress, or help and encouragement with any part of the writing process — or if you've already learned these "hard truths" about writing and can share your experience with others — you should think about joining a local writing group, such as the Dallas/Fort Worth Catholic Writers Group. Why not join us at our next meeting, Tuesday, June 9? Here are the details of time and place.

The Fed's Quasi-Fiscal PoliciesInterest-Rates / Quantitative Easing Feb 09, 2012 - 11:25 AM GMT
The policies that the Fed embarked on in late 2007 are a sharp departure from the old way of performing monetary policy. In fact, it is difficult to state that the Fed is any longer in the business of traditional monetary policy — understood in the United States as aiming for low inflation and smoothed output volatility. A new breed of monetary policies better referred to as "quasi-fiscal" policies has become the norm.
The Fed's policies have a fiscal flair to them for two reasons.
First, no longer are output and inflation the primary concerns. The Fed has framed any reference to inflation over the past four years in the context of either:
- the low levels of price inflation erasing inflationary fears from pursuing unorthodox monetary policies, or
- the threat of deflation, thus creating the "need" for monetary expansion to ward off its ill effects.
Inflation has not been a direct concern in the sense that the Fed's role is to control it. Instead, it has been viewed as a constraint on Fed policies to pursue other ends.
Concerns about maintaining output have likewise taken a backseat. Monetary economists (Fed officials included) conventionally viewed monetary policy as a tool to minimize the output gap. During recessionary periods, just the right dose of monetary expansion should tempt employers to increase production and hire workers. The attention now, however, is on keeping banks capitalized through monetary expansion. By not allowing the bad debts on banks' balance sheets to bring them to insolvency, the Fed is hoping to stave off a contagious banking crisis. The Fed is seemingly less directly concerned with maintaining output, and more with keeping banks afloat (which, admittedly, officials think will translate into employment).
The second reason that the Fed has been taking on decidedly fiscal activities is that its policies are directly affecting its own finances. Traditional monetary policy left the Fed's balance sheet intact. Until this recession, the textbook explanation of how the Fed alters the money supply held true: it bought or sold Treasury bills, and the money supply correspondingly increased or decreased. By purchasing assets of lesser quality over the recession, the Fed has endangered its own balance sheet in the name of strengthening those of the preferred members of the banking system.
Philipp Bagus and I were among a small chorus of economists who noticed the fiscal aspect to these new monetary policies when they started. Several years ago we pointed to the dangers that such policies could breed.[1] In particular, we focused on the compromised role of money as a store of value as the quality of the money-supply-backing assets (the Fed's assets) diminished. We viewed inflation, in other words, as a looming threat beyond the level normally targeted by the Fed. We gave two reasons.
First, as the Fed bought low-quality assets to strengthen the banking system's balance sheet, it has increased the base money supply by almost 2 trillion dollars (or 250 percent). The Fed was not immediately concerned, as inflationary pressures seemed subdued. Besides, in the future the position could be unwound — the Fed could just sell the assets it purchased (mortgage-backed securities and GSE debt) back to the banking sector, draining the cash from banks' reserves in the process. In theory, inflation would be a nonissue.
The problem that few considered was simple: what would happen if the Fed's new assets lost value before they were sold back to the banking system? A qualitative mismatch was made. The Fed bought assets of uncertain value and paid for them with assets fixed at par value by definition (reserves). Any loss of value in the Fed's new assets would translate into new money that the Fed could not purchase back from the banking system. In other words, inflationary pressures will appear if the Fed realizes a loss on its assets (which it has not had to do, as they remain largely unsold). Alternatively, to bring expectations into the picture, inflationary pressures can build today on the expectation that in the future the Fed will have to realize a loss on its assets.
The second inflationary threat comes in the form of an unusual question. What happens if the Fed goes bankrupt? While an institution granted monopoly rights over the issue of money is a strange candidate for insolvency, there is precedent, though mainly in cases with a currency mismatch between the central bank's assets and liabilities.[2] Luckily for Ben Bernanke and the gang, no such mismatch plagues the Fed. Nor does the Fed have many inflation-indexed liabilities, another holding that could endanger its solvency. Just to be safe, the Fed changed its accounting rules about a year ago to ensure that the bookkeepers would not have to worry about troublesome insolvencies.
Still, is the Fed safe from declaring itself insolvent? Not as long as it holds weak assets on its books.
The Fed currently has about $800 billion worth of mortgage-backed securities included in its assets. Add to that $100 billion of federal-agency debt securities, not all of which are guaranteed by the federal government. Include roughly $35 billion worth of AIG assets still on the books, and the Fed has a sizable holding of inarguably low-quality assets. (With the downgrade of the federal government last year, some might say that the Treasuries are not much better.) If the value of these questionable assets decreases, there is no automatic adjustment for its liabilities to follow suit. Cash sells at par, everywhere and always. The Fed's liabilities will hold their par value, while its assets have a great chance of declining.
The one adjustment that the Fed can make is a reduction in its capital. With a capital-ratio of 2.4 percent, a minor loss on its assets would make the Fed balance sheet insolvent. Note that this happens regardless of the way that you record the loss, and hence the changes to the Fed's accounting rules only superficially affect its solvency.
The Treasury is the only institution that can save the Fed when it needs to be recapitalized. We would be remiss to think that a Congress paying into the Fed instead of skimming earnings off it would remain a hands-off spectator in American monetary affairs. There is a clear incentive for Congress to start asking for favors from the Fed, which generally means — if other countries where such demands are placed on the central bank by the government are any guide — higher levels of money printing and inflation.
Luckily we are no longer the only ones discussing this problem. A new working paper by the IMF analyzes this same problem and concludes that
- yes, quasi-fiscal policies can be highly inflationary as central banks cannot unwind their positions, but
- the fiscal authority (i.e., the Treasury) can come to their aid to help them do so.
What the authors fail to address is what happens when the central bank becomes explicitly accountable to the Treasury and dependent on its funding to operate. If the Fed continues its policies of purchasing low-quality assets from the banking system to stabilize it, we might just find out. I for one would rather leave that question to the theory outlined above — and not put it into practice.

ROCKLAND — David Alan Kalloch, 68, passed away at his home on Aug. 3, 2018 after a three-year struggle with ALS.
David was born on Vinalhaven on July 26, 1950 to Donald and Marjorie Wiggin Kalloch. He was the husband of Deborah Orne Kalloch. They were married on May 14, 1983 in Owls Head. David was a 1968 graduate of Rockland District High School. During the Vietnam era, he served in the U.S. Marine Corps in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (1969–1971). After an honorable discharge from the military, he spent a year at the University of Maine and a year at EMVTI. In 1980, he used his skills to build a house for his mother.
He worked in the City of Rockland for 26 years, mostly as a code enforcement officer but also for three years as the solid waste director. David served as Clerk of the Works for the new Cushing Community School and worked at the contractor's desk at EBS Rockland.

David was a kind and gentle man who always took time to smell the roses. He loved nature and his binoculars. He was an excellent flower and vegetable gardener. He enjoyed dabbling with watercolors and made several beautiful landscape paintings. He spent his last days with family and friends under his favorite maple tree keeping his eye on a distant osprey nest.
David loved hot sunny days and our local beaches, watching the tide come and go, beachcombing for sea glass and driftwood. He crafted driftwood trees which he would give to family and friends.
David was a great lover of rock, folk, and blues music and had large vinyl and CD collection. Favorites included Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Emmylou Harris, Bob Dylan, the Allman Brothers. He was a loyal listener to WERU and always looked forward to the North Atlantic Blues Festival.
In the winter, he and Debby loved to travel to warm places to spend time soaking up the sun and snorkeling. He always marveled at the beauty of the fish. They took many wintertime trips to Mexico and the Caribbean islands, and many summer camping and cabin trips to Downeast Maine, Campobello, PEI, and Nova Scotia. On many New Year's Days, they watched the sunrise at
West Quoddy Head in Lubec. When David was diagnosed with ALS, he and Debby worked on their bucket list and visited many national parks in the west.
David is predeceased by his father, Donald, and his brother ,Ricky. He is survived by his wife, Debby, of Rockland; stepson Peter J. Orne of Belmont, Mass.; mother Marjorie Kalloch of South Thomaston; brother Steven Kalloch and his wife, Connie, of W. Boylston, Mass.; sister Donna Fifield and her husband, David, of South Thomaston; sister Cinda Rogers and her husband, Stewart, of Owls Head; brother Kevin Kalloch and his partner, Marlie Lott, of South Thomaston; mother-in-law Mary Orne, of Rockland; sister- and brother-in-law Kathy and James York of Owls Head; brother- and sister-in-law Bill and Barbie Orne of Rockland. David dearly loved his many nieces and nephews. He is also survived by many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
David showed great courage and dignity in fighting such a devastating disease for which there is no cure and only limited therapies. Special thanks to his teams at Togus, Miles & St. Andrews Home Health & Hospice, and MaineHealth Care at Home. Memorial donations may be made to The ALS Association Northern New England Chapter (10 Ferry St., Unit 438, Concord, NH 03301) or to the Golden West Chapter via nephew Sam Peterson's Sept. 22 ALS bicycle-race page: https://bit.ly/2Ku9Zc0
