Hi, I posted this on the herbs forum but now that I see this I think it is more appropriate here.
I am looking for tales of herbal folklore, old herbal cures (whether they worked or not) or anything like this. I have seen some things posted that have really made me curious. I thought it would be a great thread to get going. Fun to read and lots to learn. If you have read good books on this subject or have a good website, please add that also. Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Here's a good one from the Chinese Materia Medica (a compendium of medicinal plants and animals compiled by the naturalist Li-Shih-chen, circa 1597) referenced in the recently published Stiff by Mary Roach (a N.Y. Times bestseller). One recipe describes a selfless procedure undertaken by elderly males who stop eating food other than honey and only bathe in honey. After a month or so death ensues and the subject is placed to macerate in a stone coffin full of honey for 100 years. A "confection" is thus formed which is used for treating "broken and wounded limbs". "A small amount taken internally will immediately cure the complaint." Yum. The same chapter of the Roach book also describes a recipe for "Placenta Cocktail", which includes V-8 and carrots, the further details of which can reportedly be found online. |

Thanks Eric, that was WAY too much info before I had my coffee! A couple books I have had in my library for years are: The Illustrated Plantlore" by Addison and Wildflower Folklore by Martin. In Plantlore it says: "Greater Celandine" Chelidonium majus. The generic name is from Green "chelidon", swallow, from the belief that the flower appeared with the swallows and died when they departed. Country names for the plant include swallow-root, tetterwort, witch's flower, wart plant and yellow spit. Pliny, who recorded the virtues of this plant, said that swallows anointed the eyes of their young with the juice of the greater celandine. Certainly the juice was applied to the eyes and head of human beings and used to treat tetters (skin diseases), ringworm and warts. A decoction of the herb was said to ease toothache, while the powdered root laid on a loose or hollow tooth would cause it to fall out. During the twentieth century it has been used as a purge, for spllen and liver complaints, and in the form of a poultice for ulcers and skin diseases." |

Thanks everyone. I don't have a specific area of interest. Just started picking up some herbal folklore and such as I was reading things on this board. I started to pass some of the stories on to my kids (15 & 12) as we were gardening. This is their first year of showing any interest in gardening. They loved hearing the stories and so many of the stories were interesting or funny. It increased their interest and I found us spending so much more time together talking and laughing. Also, as I was reading some posts there were other people who talked about finding herbal folklore fascinating so I thought why not create an area where these stories can be shared. Thanks again. |

one that is effective, but with some risks, still used to this day , in the treatment of asthema , is to smoke the foliage of various datura species , this however comes with its own set of health problems' delerium , dry mouth , increased pulse ' it is however effective , if a very small amount is inhaled , if too much is inhaled ... ' Wide Eyed Dreamer ' not to mention you are going to be stared at untill your pupils return to their normal shape ... Datura is also used as a topical treatment for injuries such as broken bones, sprains , ect , it is a exceedingly toxic plant that is effective for these applications, but has its own health risks associated with it, not the least being ' Delerium ' ... The asthema treament is very commonly used in India , with Datura Metel , and in mexico pretty much all of the native datura are used for topical painkillers, Nicotiana ( Tobacco ) species , especialy N. Rustica . are also added to these topical treaments ... But there is always oh I dont know ... asprin ... the painkilling effect of the topical application can be nice for very serious localized injuries ' complex fractures ' but if you have no idea yet how toxic this plant is ... your physician can recomend something much safer, that will likely not cause ' Delerium ' ...There are many deaths on record as a result of these plants however, mostly by kids seeking thrills, but also from people who used it medicinaly , and the topical application is actually one of the more dangerous methods of medicinal tropane nightshade use, with its own deaths- adam |

one word if ur looking at flokelore: mandrake if u just google mandrake u'll get linux but any good site just selling the seeds will tell you a bit aparently good as an aphrodisiac, contains a demon, grows under gallows from the semen of hanged murderers, brings luck, when washed in wine and dressed in red silk can awnser questions. on a slightly more realisitc note: as its part of the solanaceae (nightshade/potato) family it contains highly potent tropane alcaloids that cause hallusinations and death as well as being absorbed through your skin. thats why mandrake was sometimes used a as a substitute for deadly nightshade in flying ointments. oh and deadly nightshade is aparently tended by the devil himself every night and can only be taken on something like walpurgis nite as he is busy then. i haver far too much time on my hands that i can list this off without having to think oha nd mugwort protects travelers/brings luck and wards off evil spirits |

Watch out! I started with a vague interest in this sort of thing and several decades later I am hopelessly addicted to finding out more and more! I've even put together several books on the subject - trouble is, I keep finding more valuable information to add to them, so it's an ongoing, never-ending project. IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU! It's a huge topic, covering thousands upon thousands plants, and hundreds of different ethnic cultures. Aside from the medicinal remedies, you've also got the myths and legends and superstitions - not to mention culinary recipes and spells and cosmetic uses etc. Try hunting around the WWW for 'herb(al) remedies', 'folklore herbs', 'herb myths and legends' 'herb history' or 'herb supersititions' 'herbalism' or 'herbology' or any other variation on the theme, and be prepared to spend the rest of your life utterly enthralled (and doing nothing else)! Try looking at some of the Wicca or Witchcraft sites - they often have some brilliant information about all sorts of ways of using herbs, and some old stories and traditions which are fascinating to read. The ones I've encountered have a very healthy respect for herbs and give some excellent advice (though of course there are some over-the-top sites, too!). Here's something I have partially edited which I copied from some site or other. I have reams of similar stuff hiding away gathering dust! I'm currently working on the remedies, not the superstition-type stuff. You'll see a lot of the remedies etc I've collected in this forum and on Herbs, so do some browsing in here, too. Comfrey Damiana Dandelion Dill Echinacea Elder Elecampane Eucalyptus MAGICKAL: Healing energies come from the leaves. A branch or wreath over the bed of a sick person will help spread the healing energies. The oil is added to healing baths, and for purifications. Eyebright False Unicorn Fennel Fenugreek Feverfew Garlic Ginger Ginseng Goldenseal Hawthorn Heather Hops Horehound Horsetail Hyssop Queen Anne's Lace Raspberry Rose Rosemary Rue Saffron Sage St. Johnswort Scullcap Slippery Elm Solomon's Seal Spearmint Taheebo Thyme MAGICKAL: Thyme is burnt to purge and fumigate magickal rooms and spaces, as well as to bring good health. Thyme in a sleeping pillow repels nightmares. Uva Ursi Valerian MAGICKAL: Valerian is used to get fighting couples back together, in spells of love, and in purification baths. Vervain Violet Vitex Walnut Willow Witch Hazel Wormwood Yarrow Juniper Kava Kava Lavendar Lemon Balm Licorice Lovage Marigold Marjoram Marshmallow Mugwort Mullein Myrtle Nettle Nutmeg Oats Onion |

I always apologise to my elder tree (or, rather, to 'the lady of the elder') when cutting it back or harvesting! This is the poem I'm supposed to say, but I can never remember it! You need to have the 'old girl's' permission to cut twigs of the tree. (Actually, I'm not a superstitious person, but I do it for fun when somebody else is around - and maybe a little 'just in case'... I have a healthy respect for the elder tree, because I use its flowers and berries so much to good effect.) The lady or 'old girl' in question is Lady Ellhorn or Hylde-Moer (whom some believe to be the German goddess Holde herself). To fail to ask permission and offer another tree or gift in return was to incur the wrath of the Huldru-folk or the Elle(people of the elder). In fact, the normally loving goddess Holda as Lady Ellhorn was said to kill babies whose cribs were made of its wood. Any follower of Asatru or Heathen needs to make sure to make an offering to the tree before taking any branch. However, if taken properly, the elder could lend its powers to all sorts of uses. Old girl, give me some of thy wood Stand beneath the elder to be protected from lightning; sleeping under the elder tree will bring drugged and dangerous dreams of faeryland, from which onemight awaken either mad, or not at all. In mediaeval times it was considered unlucky to burn elder,or to bring it into the house. It was only considered safe to cut an elder tree if one had first askedpermission; the tree dryad would grant consent by keeping silence. Elder leaves gathered at Beltane Eve and attached to the door are said to keep away evil. The elder has been attributed with revealing evil wights, bringing ghosts or little folk into a house (if the elder branch or leaf is brought inside), and warding against all kinds of fiends. Even its berries were thought powerful for a circle of them was thought to a quite powerful warding circle. |

hmm... let's see what I can remember. there's the old trick of putting belladonna berry juice in your eyes to dialate the irises, making your eyes more attractive - or giving you better night vision. there's a local plant that's called Mandrake, though its proper name is may apple, that looks like an umbrella. it was rumoured to be so poisonous that if you pulled it out of the ground and licked your fingers afterwards, you would get sick. sassafras bark was boiled for tea to keep winter colds at bay. Willow back worked for headaches and fever. raspberry and blackberry leaves were diuretics. Foxglove flowers soaked in brandy could strengthen a failing heart, but was dangerous trying to control the dosage (this is the organic source for digitalis) eating poison ivy berries would make you immune (this is very much untrue) sumac with red berry clusters is good for you. ones with pale berries (yellow, or white) make poison ivy look like a mosquito bite. |

parsley, because it takes forever to germinate is said to go to hell and back 7 timesbefore it can sprout, in one of the isles off of the UK, i cant remember which, childern when they ask the question that is inevitable, i.e. where they came from, are said to be dug up from the parsley bed with a golden spade. i think theres quite a bit more about parsley. grape vines aparentlk have roots that go to hell and steal water from the damned souls, because theire roots run so deep and when all other plants have died from drought grape vines are flourishing becuase drought it usual acompanied by sun. hazel it used for divining, and aparently is said to be good wood for wands (see elder) henbane (i think this is right, it might have been another solanaceae) was used to kill unwanted babies by rubbing the mothers niple with it before suckling. holy and oak are important as they are linked to the seasons. oak has leaves only in summer and the oak king ruled during summer. and as holy bears its fruit in winter the holy king rules then. the holy king was a man with a white beard, he wore a thick (well it was winter when he was important)green robe, often depicted with a white fur trim and his reign was celebrated at about the winter solstice. sounds familiar? (i'l give you a hint, he was also known as father holy, and he now wears a red suit (stupid coca cola)) thats right, hes santa claus/ his origin. |
I also follow the tradition of asking permission before taking a leaf or branch form any herb... I enjoy studying the old tales about herbs and trying to detemine the reasons they might have built up such a history. They each seem to have their own personality. |

Daisy, your list is really cool. For people interested in the magical elements of herbs, I suggest finding a copy of John Michael Greer's Natural Magic, an encyclopedia type listing of astrology & folklore of herbs, stones & lots of other stuff. Two of my other favorites are Hedgemaids & Fairy Candles: The Lives & Lore of North American Wildflowers, by Jack Sanders-- great for extrapolating stories to tell to kids-- and A Gardener's Handbook of Plant Names: Their Meanings & Origins which gives the "logic" of latin genus & species names as well as anecdotal histories which contributed to the naming of particular plants. It's set up like a dictionary & easy to use. |

Once again, daisyduck, you AMAZE me. I've found some interesting herbal folkore info in books. One of the most recent was a book about New England gardens, early american gardens. Some books, a few, will list herbs used by Native Americans. Herbalism goes back to the Arabs, Greeks, and so on. It's fascinating! A lot of that "folklore" is still used today, proven, helpful remedies. Eibren, your approach is very Native American, and shows respect for the herbs God gave us to use. |

Federal Reserve
Fed and Treasury 'rowing in opposite directions'
The Federal Reserve's efforts to help the economy recover through quantitative easing (QE), twisting, and tapering have made front page news without fail. Although it has gotten less attention, the Treasury Department has also been changing the way it finances the national debt to take advantage of lower interest rates, inadvertently counteracting some of the intended effect of the Fed's policies on the economy. That's exactly what a new Brookings working paper by Robin Greenwood, Samuel Hanson, Joshua Rudolph, and Lawrence Summers argues: during the past 5 years, the Fed and the Treasury have been "rowing in opposite directions."
In 2008, the Fed reduced interest rates to near zero in an attempt to help the economy grow. But nominal interest rates cannot go below zero, so conventional monetary tools stopped working. To further stimulate the economy, the Fed took extraordinary measures and began purchasing long-term government bonds and government guaranteed debt (like Mortgage Backed Securities, or MBS). These measures reduced the amount of long-term debt available for public investors and lowered long-term rates.
But while the Fed was engaging in these unconventional transactions, the Treasury was selling more long-term debt to lengthen the average maturity of the national debt, thereby locking in today's low rates and mitigating the risks of higher interest rates in the future, essentially providing a partial counterbalance to the Fed's policies.
The FOMC Tapers, But That's Not All!
In a move that has been discussed and anticipated for months, the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee announced that it would slightly scale back its current quantitative easing program (QE3). Specifically, it would slow its purchases of longer-term Treasury and mortgage-backed securities by $5 billion per month each, reducing the total monthly purchase from $85 billion to $75 billion.
As the Fed Meets, CRFB Quantifies Interest Rate Risk Facing the Budget
Beginning tomorrow, the Federal Open Market Committee, the Fed's interest rate setting and deliberative body that meets eight times a year -- will meet for two days to make decisions about the future path of U.S. monetary policy. In particular, many are looking to see whether the Fed will begin a "taper" and slow the rate of asset purchases, signaling the beginning of an unwind of the Fed's expanded balance sheet.
Chairman Bernanke Testifies Before the Joint Economic Committee
This morning, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke testified before the Joint Economic Committee regarding the current economic climate. He noted that the economy has begun to show signs of life, attributing the accelerating pace of GDP growth to gradual improvements in credit conditions and the housing market. He also argued that the Fed should continue its quantitative easing at its current pace until the labor market improves sufficiently.
Federal Reserve Makes $88.9 Billion in Profit
Yesterday, the Federal Reserve announced in a preliminary estimate that it had made a profit in 2012 and transferred $88.9 billion to the Treasury. This is a new high for the Fed, up from the previous high of $79 billion in 2010, and $77 billion last year.
QE 3.1: The Fed Gets Specific
In September, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) announced a third round of quantitative easing, consisting of purchases of mortgage-backed securities and long-term Treasuries. QE3 represented a break from previous rounds of easing because it did not involve an end date for the purchases. With that modification, there was some speculation that the FOMC would also set inflation and unemployment thresholds after which, if reached, the Fed would wind down its easing policy.
QE3 Is on the Way
After months of speculation and anticipation, the Federal Open Market Committee decided to undertake a third round of quantitative easing. The centerpiece of QE will be the purchase of more mortgage-backed securities at a pace of $40 billion per month.
Bernanke Once Again Warns Congress on the Fiscal Cliff
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke addressed Senate Finance Committee on Tuesday and the House Finance Committee yesterday with more warnings about the fiscal cliff at the end of the year.
Chairman Bernanke Addresses the Fiscal Cliff
Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke held a press conference yesterday following the conclusion of the Federal Open Market Committee meeting. Questions spanned a variety of topics including the Fed's current monetary policy stance, the economic outlook, the possible threat posed by European troubles, and Fed transparency. But one question did come up about the fiscal cliff and how the Fed would react if no action were taken. Here are his remarks:
Bernanke 'Supportive of Going Big'
Supporters of enacting a comprehensive deficit reduction plan got a boost yesterday from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. At a hearing with the House Budget Committee on the economic outlook, Bernanke responded to a question from Rep. Mike Simpson (R-ID) about the need for a large fiscal plan. He said the following (at the 58:45 mark of the video):

text: Hey guys, I just wanted to share a little something with you that I noticed and I wonder if you guys had similiar experiences. I have always been trying to lose weight and doing different diets so I have many food logs and weight/body measurements dating back to about 2002. So I pulled out some of my old weight logs to see where I was then. I noticed that even though my weight was lower on some dates than they are now, my measurements were bigger. For example, I saw an entree back from 2004 that had me weighing 167 and right now I'm 189 but my measurements like chest and stomach are actually smaller at 189 than at 167?! Is that possible. I swear I am losing more fat on Atkins than I did when I just counted calories and did hours of cardio. The funny thing too with counting the calories, the scale would lower but I still looked "skinny fat" if that makes sense. I am really trying to look past scale weight and focus on my measurements and clothing size because that tells a way better story to me. I actually look better at 189 on Atkins than I did at 165 on a low fat/calorie counting diet. Go figure ;) . Just thought I'd share. Anyone else notice this?

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Subject: Mayans will "cleanse" site after Bush visit
GUATEMALA CITY, Guatemala (CNN) -- Mayan Indian leaders have vowed to
"spiritually cleanse" an ancient site in Guatemala after U.S. President
George W. Bush visits during his seven-day, five-nation tour of Latin
Bush's visit to the ruins at Iximche, a one-time capital of a Mayan group,
is part of an effort to show the administration is interested in all its
neighbors in the hemisphere.
But many Mayans are angry that Bush is visiting Iximche, founded as the
capital of the Kaqchiqueles kingdom before the Spanish conquest in 1524.
Mayan priests say they will purify the sacred archaeological site to rid it
of any "bad spirits" after Bush is there.
"That a person like (Bush) with the persecution of our migrant brothers in
the United States, with the wars he has provoked is going to walk in our
sacred lands is an offense for the Mayan people and their culture," Juan
Tiney, director of a Mayan non-governmental organization with close ties to
Mayan religious and political leaders, told The Associated Press.
The president is working to shore up U.S. allies amid the widespread
perception that his administration has neglected Latin America since the
September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington.
"It's very important for the people of South America and Central America to
know that the United States cares deeply about the human condition, and that
much of our aid is aimed at helping people realize their God-given
potential," Bush said Sunday in Bogota, Colombia.
On Monday, Bush was also visiting a farm cooperative to try to argue that
the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) is helping improve the
lives of the poor.
CAFTA has come under tremendous criticism from some Latin American leaders
who say it has been used to benefit only the United States and the wealthy
in the countries that signed onto it.
Bush will discuss CAFTA and other issues -- including drug trafficking and
the battle over U.S. immigration policy -- with Guatemalan President Oscar
Bush arrived in the country Sunday night from Bogota, marking the first
visit by a U.S. president to the Colombian capital since Ronald Reagan in
He was met by a relatively small protest in Bogota, totaling about 1,500
demonstrators who assembled about a mile from the palace, where Bush and
Colombian President Alvaro Uribe had lunch. (Watch Bush offer support to
Uribe )
About 300 to 350 demonstrators threw rocks and charged a line of about 200
police clad in riot gear. The demonstrators ripped up metal barricades,
smashed concrete barriers and used the resulting fragments as projectiles.
After rebuffing repeated charges, police brought in tear gas and water
cannon and used them to push the demonstrators into side streets. The
protesters smashed the windows of financial institutions as they retreated.
(Watch violent clashes in Colombia's capital )
National police in Colombia says 120 people were arrested.
After Bush's events in Bogota ended, the White House used a decoy motorcade
as an added security measure.
As Bush travels through the region, his main South American foe, Venezuelan
President Hugo Chavez, is taking a tour of his own.
Some are calling it a "shadow" tour of Bush's. Chavez's stops have included
Uruguay and Colombia. In public statements he has slammed Bush and declared
Bush's political career dead.
Privately, U.S. officials charge that protests over Bush's visit -- which
include battles between demonstrators and police in Brazil -- are being
fomented and financed by Chavez.
Bush began his trip Friday in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where he said during a
joint appearance with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva that the United
States doesn't get "enough credit for trying to help improve people's
"My trip is to explain as clearly as I can that our nation is generous and
compassionate -- that when we see poverty, we care, that when we see
illiteracy, we want to do something about it, that when we find there to be
a deficiency in health care, we'll help to the extent we can," he said.

[QUOTE=dmaster555;1167534]But how did you catch on? I'm willing to bet you're misinformed about something regarding nutrition right now that someone else knows about and you have no clue. You're being just like those people. You're just acting on what you "know."
If you're watching people's carts at the market and looking at them in disgust, sounds like you have some issues yourself.[/QUOTE]
I seem to find that people aren't so much "misinformed", as, to quote my fiance, "violently uninformed". They genuinely believe all the CW crap and, the more evidence you show them, the more aggressively they oppose it. They don't WANT to be informed, they don't WANT to change and, most of all, they don't WANT to think.
Think about eggs: even CW medicine now accepts that eggs are healthy. Enough studies have been done to show that they don't raise your cholesterol and everything else about them, even in CW-eyes, is healthy. But most people who believe in CW STILL reject eating "too many eggs" because it will "raise your cholesterol". They are surrounded by studies and Drs saying "sorry guys, we got it wrong, eggs are great for you!" and they STILL don't see it. You can read them a study about eggs and cholesterol and they will continue to insist that eggs are bad for your heart. They aren't MISinformed, someone misninformed is open to accept change, to look at new pespectives and to inform themselves. MISinformed implies they are informed at all. They are, actually, UNinformed, in that they aren't informed and violently uninformed in that they violently reject any attempt to inform them.
Violently uninformed = "I am right. I need no evidence. I am right. Because I am."

Had a heart attack in Jan. Clogged artery and I have a stent.The chart they sent me home with to tell what to eat and what not to eat says that non-dairy creamer is a "NO NO" but on the low sodium cooking site they say that non dairy creamers are ok to use in a recipe calling for milk. Gives it a sweeter flavor. Also the egg substitute recipe that I have calls for egg whites and powdered milk which the low sodium site says the whites of a regular egg has more sodium than the yolks. Now I'm really confused. what to do? |

You may want to do some research on Cayenne pepper and heart. It would be a great benifit to add to your diet. Barb |

Heidiho - Stick to the list they gave you and ask your doctor's staff about the contradictions. It's better to use lo-fat milk than non-dairy creamer because they are high sodium, and if you want a "sweeter" flavor in baked goods, just add a bit of sugar. As for the egg problem: if you want low-fat, use the whites. Don't worry about the sodium in non-processed foods (anything you buy RAW, except sausage) ... just cook as much fresh stuff as possible and you'll avoid most of the hidden sodium. |
I believe non-dairy creamers have coconut fat in them... definitely NO-NO if you are on a cardiac diet. I think it is best to stick to fresh, unprocessed foods as the previous poster suggested, and I'd just forget the creamer altogether (just more chemicals, fat, etc.). Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meat/chicken/fish, whole grains, non-fat or low-fat milk/yogurt/cottage cheese. If you must put a creamer sort of thing in your coffee, use low-fat milk. Also, try to get used to foods without additional salt, sauces, and lots of butter added. The natural taste of foods is best.

They are conflicting because one is just giving you low sodium and one is just giving you low fat info- some people just need to be on a low salt like people with high blood pressure and some just need to be on low fat like for gallbladder probs. If you want to use creamer they do have fat free half and half and all my patients think it tastes pretty good- just like with milk though watch the sodium a bit- also for the egg whites- yes they have about 100 mg of sodium but they are still recommended for coronary's because the cholesterol issue is usually more important than the sodium issue depending on whether he has CHF or high blood pressure- only a select percentage get results with a low sodium diet helping BP but they still recommend it for everyone in case you are one of those few. They have done enough studies now that show the cholesterol in the yolks doesn't affect the cholesterol in the body so i imagine in a few years they are going to tell you yolks are ok again. |
Jenn and polarprincess are correct. The fat in the non-dairy creamer is the kind that your body uses to make cholesterol. The cholesterol that you eat isn't as much of a problem as the cholesterol that you make. The fats that you eat affect cholesterol much more, so eggs are okay, but "No Cholesterol!!" foods that are made from hydrogenated oils are a bad choice, because your liver will use those fats to generate its own cholesterol. Basically you want to avoid fats from land animals (eggs are relatively low in fat) and hydrogenated oils (fast foods and packaged foods; read the labels). You have discovered the usual trouble with diet advice. Different diets have different goals. In your case you are interested in lowering cholesterol, so low sodium diets may not do the trick. |

Hi, my renter's dogs chewed the wire off of the receiving sensor for my garage door opener. Of course the garage door opener doesn't operate without the sensor.
I ordered new sensors. I unplugged the garage door opener to wire up the new receiving sensor. When I plugged the garage door opener back in, the light on the sending sensor didn't light up. It's as if the sensors aren't getting power anymore. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this? The sending sensor light was lit before I unplugged the garage door opener. Is there a bypass I can do so I don't have to use the sensors? My only thought is that if the sending sensor was working before I unplugged the opener and then not after I plugged it back in, there may be a short within the opener itself? Any thoughts? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Double check all the wiring. There is no bypass for the sensors. Make sure you did indeed put a recieving eye in and not a sending eye. |

"How To Raise Money So You Can Make Your Movie, Guaranteed"
Introducing The Film Finance Guide
Based on a decade of indie movie producing experience, you will get a no-fluff, easy to follow step-by-step film finance system so YOU can pitch investors, get money and make your movie.
- Discover the pitch that investors can't ignore
- Find investors so you can make your pitch
- Uncover the 5 tips to getting movie money
Your Solid Film Funding Strategy
Tom Malloy's proven Step-By-Step film funding system. . .
In this system, Brubaker and Malloy demystify one of the most misunderstood and most essential aspects of independent filmmaking: raising the money.
Jared Tweedie, Hollywood Screenwriter
"Introducing Tom Malloy's Film Finance Guide"
The Indie Film Finance Guide
Your System For Getting Movie Money
Instead of making yourself crazy with all the unknowns, you can follow a simple system. And when you complete the steps, you will understand how to get your paperwork in order, find investors and get the money.
This advanced film finance system has been specifically designed to put your filmmaking into high gear!
"Discover The Secrets Tom Malloy Utilized to Raise Over 25-Million To Make His Movies"
Dear Filmmaker -
Getting money to make your movie is one of the most challenging aspects of the filmmaking process.
The problem is, unless you follow a series of proven film financing steps, getting money to make your movie could be very tough. And unless you get started NOW, it could take you months and even years to raise money and get your movie made. And I should know. . .
My name is Tom Malloy. I have raised more than $25 million in private equity from independent financiers to write and produce nearly all the films that my company, Trick Candle Productions has made.
To help you raise money for your movies (and avoid some of my mistakes), I have put together the Independent Film Finance Guide. This system will allow you to formulate a real world, bullet proof strategy for getting money from investors so you can make your movie.
"This Info Is NOT Based On Theory"
Many of these film finance tactics took me years to figure out. And if you don't watch it, you could spend years blowing money on yet another outdated, useless filmmaking seminar. Aren't you sick of the same old advice?
While there is good information out there, there are just as many film finance "gurus" devoting entire lessons to stuff the average filmmaker will never do! And many of those experts have never raised the type of money I have.
With this film finance system, you won't get a whole bunch of page filler about foreign pre-sales, doctors and dentists and plane tickets to Cannes. Instead you'll get real world advice, based on actual experience!
This film finance system is not theory. It is based on a decade of independent movie producing experience. If you are a serious filmmaker and you are willing to follow this system, you will get the inside scoop on raising money from people who have actually done it.
This way, you too will discover how to find, approach, pitch and close investors.
"What's Included In This Film Finance System?"
The film finance system is comprised of SIX training modules and additional bonus material. When you sign up, you will be issued with a user name and password that will grant you access to the following training.
Module 1 – Prep Your Project
This module provides an intro to the course as well as an explanation on how to Prep Your Project. Prepping your project may be the most important element to film financing!
Module 2 – Create Your Pitch
When you're in the room with that High Net Worth Individual (HNI), your goal is to get him or her to write the check. This module teaches you how to pitch!
Module 3 – Find The Money
In this module, you will discover the same secrets I have utilized to find money. These are the very secrets that most successful movie producers will never tell you.
Module 4 – Raise The Money
In this module, I am going to reveal the secret techniques I utilized to raise over $25 million in private equity for my own films. This information is invaluable, and can be used for any film, any genre and any budget.
Module 5 – More Techniques
In this module, you will receive expanded detail on raising money. These film financing techniques have been specifically designed to give you an additional edge.
Module 6 – Special Tips
In this module you will find all the special strategies that can be utilized to help you finance your feature film. Some of these strategies will enable to you to overcome personal limitations and accelerate your career.
"Frequently Asked Questions"
"What If I don't live in Hollywood?"
Actually, that's awesome. Even if you don't live in Hollywood or have any industry connections — you can quickly work the system from your small home town. These secret film funding strategies will enable you to find and get meetings with prospective investors.
It really couldn't be any more straight-forward unless we worked the system for you. That means, in as little as a few months, you'll be well on your way to approaching investors and raising movie money!
I truly believe that without Tom Malloy's information, we would have never been successful on our Kickstarter Campaign.
George Antonopoulos, Filmmaker - Born To Lead
"Okay, So How Much To Access This System?"
Because this professional film finance system is based on actual experience and not theory, a system like this could easily sell for thousands of dollars. In fact if you attended one of those weekend workshops, you'd probably pay nearly $1,297. And if you do the research, you'll find that most of those industry "gurus" have never even produced a movie!
But we are not going to charge you anywhere close to that amount. In fact, your total investment for the entire film finance system is just $97. Using this system will more than jump-start your film financing strategy. And think about it: in most towns, what you pay here is less than steak dinner and a movie for two. . .
Tom's willingness to share his experience and advice so openly has definitely helped launch us on our way to producing our first feature film.
DJ Travis and Ellen Yee Say, Filmmakers
"Why are we nearly giving this system away?"
Here is how we can do it. This system consists of several training modules that can be accessed within a few minutes. So for the most part, we have no inventory and no fulfillment costs. And aside from an occasional assistant, we do not have to pay anybody to go to the post office or take phone calls.
Although, if you need to call us, you can dial 310-746-3868.
So if it's OK with you, we'd rather slash your price so you can get started producing your movie. . .
"Finance Your Movie BONUS Materials"
To make this deal even more robust, I've added 3 bonuses to complement your film finance strategy. I created these bonus materials myself and think they will really help you define your "get movie money" strategy.
Film Finance Guide Interview (So You Can Get Started Fast)

The thing you need to know is this – the information contained in this film finance system represents over a decade of the REAL experience. It is NOT fluff. It is NOT theory. The value of this information is worth far more than the current $97 sale price.
And in case you think I'm just saying this to get you to BUY NOW, you should know the price of this program has already gone up a few times. This is because it is worth a lot more than the price you'll pay here. So to make sure you get your special price, simply click the buy now button below.
"How Do I Get Started?"
Once your payment is processed, your exclusive user name and password will be emailed to you. These unique credentials will provide you with access to the entire "Film Finance Guide system."
Your advanced step-by-step film finance system has been specifically designed to give you an edge over all the other filmmakers who are not serious, yet still clamoring to find, pitch and close investors. Think of how this information will accelerate YOUR career.
When most filmmakers are crossing their fingers, hoping for their lucky break. . . You can create your own luck. Isn't that worth the investment?
Buying Tom Malloy's film funding information was money well spent! It's action packed with tons of information that you can't get anywhere else!

You owe it to yourself and the movie you want to finance to buy this.

I have to disagree with Barbara here. I found the service to be friendly and timely. Tea was prompt and expertly brewed, the scone appropriately sized (not sure what Barbara was expecting in terms of tea time food; not American portions, I hope) and any additional requests were handled just fine. The tea room, far from being inelegant, is cleanly designed and simple, though not spartan. Perfect for a midday break.
Best Afternoon Tea Denver 2005 - House of Commons
Yorkshire native Jessica Avery has created a stark, sunny space that shines in contrast to the ambience of coffeehouses we've become so accustomed to in this town, where folks can find a dark spot to swill caffeine and palaver on nearly every street corner. Her House of Commons is a welcoming space where you chat in hushed tones, though not necessarily with your pinkie extended, as you sip an entirely different kind of caf -- chosen from a variety of aromatic Taylor's of Harrogate teas -- in the descending light. Adding to the makings of a right proper afternoon are Avery's food offerings -- lovely scones with double Devon cream, tiny petit fours, cucumber sandwiches and Parkin, a Yorkshire specialty that involves baking spiced oatmeal with treacle into a chewy, crumbly, sticky, caramelly mess of perfect goodness. Brilliant!

Figure Review - Main Force VC Rifle Platoon
The product code fore the Main Force VC Rifle Platoon is FPV014 for those wanting to order a pack or three. The picture below is from the Flashpoint Minatures web site. As bases are not included with the miniatures, i also purchased a pack of FoW bases from Dragonfire Games.
In total there were 39 figures in the pack:
2 x Officer standing with rifle slung
4 x VC with RPG
4 x VC with RPD Machine Gun
4 x NCO with arm raised
25 x Rifleman in various poses
This works out at around .90 cents (well .897 cents) a figure.
Looking at the photos on the Flashpoint web site and forum, i am not sure if i am meant to have two officer figures
There is a little bit of flash to clean up which isn't a problem, as this is easy to clean up.
I am very happy with the figures, especially after getting over the shock of how small they were... i am used to 20mm and 28mm figures.
The paint i was going to use to paint them has dried up, so i will have to buy some more paint before getting stuck into them, which i am keen to do.

Figure review - USMC Rifle Company HQ
The first thing you have to understand is that a Company HQ is relatively small, so a large portion of the pack is dedicated to casualties. Just how many I didnt realise, as its a large percentage of the blister.
Figure wise you get (all with helmets unless otherwise stated):
- 1 Officer standing, firing pistol
- 1 RTO with M14 (same figure as the Rifle Platoon)
- Leader figure with M16 (same figure as the Rifle Platoon)
- Marine with M16 signallign with clenched fist
- Marine, bare head with M16 (same figure as the Rifle Platoon)
- Medic, unarmed (same figure as the Rifle Platoon)
- Standing wounded, bandaged head, unarmed, bare-headed x 3
- Standing wounded, bareheaded clutching left chest x 6
- Lying on one side wounded, clutching chest, bare headed, unarmed
- KIA facedown on penny sized circular base x 10
Thats 26 figs for $30, or A$1.15 per figure.
Once again the figures are well detailed and crisply cast. There is very minimal flash and mold lines.Overall, the figures are very nice, but I cant help feel that this pack is less value for money than the rifle platoon. The figures are of the same high Flashpoint sculpting standard, but of the 26 figs, 20 are casualties which I didnt expect. Thats sufficient casualties for more than a company with every squad having one, so I guess that game requirement is covered off! So the figs are necessary for the game and do give me the Company HQ, but if its firepower and figures on the table you want, this pack isnt what you are after.
26 May 2007
USMC Painting Update
And 1st Squad (the other two are done as well but look pretty much the same)
Squad Leader and Fireteam 1:
and the other 2 Fireteam stands:Some detailing (eg flesh washes) and basing yet to be done, but you get the idea and now you can see what the figs are like.
Colours Used
Basecoating order and colours:
1) Medium drybrush with Coat d'arms 226 Olive.
Maybe a little too bright up close, but I think it looks just right from a normal gaming distance
2) Flesh: Coat d'arms 214 Suntanned flesh and 216 Negro flesh on about 1/3 of the troops.
3) Reblacked boots and weapons using Tamiya: XF-1 Flat Black
4) Weapon colouring using very old (>15years!) GW: Bolt gun metal for M16 centre sections, grenades, M79 barrel and tops of M14s. yes, its too bright up close, but you can see it from 3 feet away
5) Ral Partha Dunkel Brown for M79 and M14 furniture.
Because I preominantly use drybrushing techniques (because I am lazy), it means not too much detailing is required, and I'm doing wargaming standard figs not character figs (not that I am capable of super detailing anyway!)
Very light drybrush with GW Burnished gold for M60 bandolier ammo belts
Comments and suggetsions welcomed as always!

Aussie WIP
Here you can see an Infantry section and the Plt HQ and he has used foamcore for the bases. The figures and vehicles are both from Peter Pig,'s 15mm Vietnam range "The Men of Company B", which you can see here:
Now get on with it and finish off your painting and basing mate!

Leathernecks prepped
A rather boring stage, I havent bothered with photos.
The flash came off quite well and it only took me about 2 hours total to do all 45 figures, which isnt bad (for me). The mold lines are quite small and the majority of the flash is restricted to a few figure poses, the others being almost completely flash free.
So I've divided them into their Squads and fireteams, and tomorrow the jungle gree and olive drab come out for basecoating. I think I shall use a chestnut coloured "dip" mixure for the wash. At least I'll try it out on the first few figures and see how it goes.

Figure Review - USMC Rifle Platoon
Good quality figures, dynamic poses, moderate levels of flash so some cleaning up required. Figs are quite detailed, including the obligatory helmet containers, bandoliers and crisply detailed webbing.

Peru's gastronomic renaissance
For a real spit-and-sawdust Arequipa eating experience, however, give the experimentalists a swerve and visit a picantería. These traditional, only-in-Arequipa restaurants are usually located in suburban areas and inspire fanatical local followings. Eschewing the gimmickry of the posh city centre eateries and generally only open for lunch, picanterías serve huge crowds of diners at communal tables in an atmosphere of organised chaos. Do not expect standard menus; the dish selection is largely determined by the day of the week. On a very crowded soup list, chupe de camarones is the crème de la crème, an Arequipan specialty that uses the city's legendary river prawns submerged in a rich broth of milk, tomatoes, spices and hot peppers. It is traditionally served on Fridays; try it at Tradición Arequipeña where pan pipe-wielding music groups compete with the cacophony of hungry diners.
A further indication of Arequipa's food obsession can be seen in the amount of gastronomic schools that lie dotted around the city. If you are visiting, you can learn the basics on a one-day cooking course with AI Travel. Peruvian food has gone international in recent years with television chefs such as Acurio taking the likes of cerviche and lomo saltado (a Chinese-Peruvian fusion dish made with shredded beef) into the mainstream. In 2004, The Economist stated that "Peru can lay claim to one of the world's dozen or so great cuisines" while, two years later, Lima was recognized as the gastronomic capital of Latin America by the International Summit of Gastronomy in Madrid. Proud Arequipeños might beg to differ, but that is another story.
