Bird Feeders, Bird Houses and Bird Baths:
Garden Supplies For A Busy Summer
A Season Full Of Song
Make sure beautiful birdsong is the soundtrack to your family's summer with our selection of proudly handcrafted bird feeders, bird houses, and bird baths. Installed alone or in unison, these three items are each designed to cater to the needs of all species of American garden bird. Where the birds eat, wash, and live determines where they'll sing - and you can make sure that your garden is their favorite place to spend every summer by inviting them in with food, water, and a safe place to nest.
Learn Together, Enjoy Together
Birdwatching is one of the most popular pastimes in the USA, and with good reason! Watching different species interact and sing brings enormous satisfaction to individuals and families of all ages. With time, our garden birds can teach us their distinctive songs, their unique feather markings, and even how they interact and build communities of their own.
Observing these beautiful creatures eating, bathing, and nesting provides children in particular with an excellent chance to learn about the natural world. How is a dispute over food resolved? How does a mother make sure her baby birds are safe when they take that all-important first flight from the nest box? Do bird families stick together for years, or do they reform with the start of each new season? Watching these natural dramas unfold in the wilds of your back yard is one of the best ways to make that TV set seem a little less alluring to growing minds!
Start Your Journey
DutchCrafters is proud to offer one of the widest selections of handmade bird feeders, bird houses, and bird baths on the internet. Each and every one of our items is handmade in the United States using American-grown wood and American-made poly wood. Our expert Amish craftsmen are the best in the world at what they do, devoting their entire lives to their work and often passing their master knowledge on from father to son and mother to daughter - we can't wait to show you what makes every single one of their beautiful creations so special and unique.

Mac Design Software - NOT Punch
Hello everyone,
Not too long ago, I found some amazing looking Mac landscape design software that also did pools. However, it's completely slipped my mind. I know it's not Punch.
Anyone have any ideas?
I found it. It was this:
It's not for Mac though - and it honestly doesn't look that great.
SO let me pose another question. Across ALL software packages, is anyone seriously planning patios, backyards, pools, etc with software. It all seems to be garbage that crashes (Punch).
People love SketchUp I hear - but that seems to have quite the steep learning curve. I also wonder how much I can do with the free version as opposed to spending $500.
When Google first acquired SketchUp from AtLast Software, they made the free version for home use only, to try and smooth things over with us pro users who spent $500 on it. We all know how well the honor system works with software EULAs, so now you ARE licensed to use the free version for commercial purposes.
There are two major differences between Google SU (Free) and SketchUp Pro. The first is that Pro comes with Layout, which is an add-on that allows you to present drawings to scale, with title blocks. The second is that the Pro version allows you to export to multiple file formats, which is necessary if you're going to do post-processing renders with programs like Vue or Kerkythea.
I had the pro version at my old job because we bought it back when you had to pay for it. Now that I'm on my own, I use the free version. Works fine for what I do.
If you have CAD experience, or even solid graphics program experience, I would think you'll pick up SketchUp pretty quickly. I love it for working out construction details on trellis and pergolas (pergolae?). It's lousy for 2D drafting, though.

Colombia's Radamel Falcao left off World Cup roster due to injury
Colombia was dealt a major setback on Monday when it was announced that Monaco striker Radamel Falcao would be left off the final 23-man roster due to a knee injury.
Falcao suffered a torn ACL in January and underwent surgery, which immediately jeopardized his World Cup chances. The 28-year-old wasn't expected to recover in time with regard to both form and fitness, but Monday's announcement makes it official.
Colombia coach Jose Pekerman made the announcement from the team's training grounds in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He called it "the saddest day I've had since becoming Colombia coach." Apparently, Falcao had a say in the decision:
Falcao: "I'm still not ready and I didn't want to take a place away from one of my teammates who was 100% fit."— Carl Worswick (@cworswick) June 2, 2014
How big a blow will Falcao's absence be as Colombia battles with the Ivory Coast, Greece and Japan to advance out of Group C? Consider this:
Falcao finished third top scorer in South American qualifying with nine goals, behind Luis Suarez (11) and Lionel Messi (10)— Dale Johnson (@dalejohnsonESPN) June 2, 2014
In such a relatively weak group, it's not an overstatement to say that Falcao's skill made Colombia the unquestioned Group C favorites. He had scored 11 goals in 19 matches for Monaco ahead of his injury.
Colombia is probably in a good position to advance, nonetheless, but now the scoring will fall to forward Jackson Martinez and Falcao's Monaco teammate, James Rodriguez.

Sumac for DiabetesJanuary 13, 2015 Written by JP
Sometimes we eat certain foods or ingredients and don't even realize it. This is especially true when trying dishes that aren't a common part of our diet. Take as an example, sumac berries. Rhus coriaria or sumac is a primary component of the Middle Eastern spice blend known as zatar. You'll often find zatar added to couscous, chicken and fish entrees, or simply sprinkled on top of fresh feta cheese, hummus or sliced tomatoes. It can also be blended into extra virgin olive oil as a flavorful dip or dressing.

Protect Your Colon Part TwoDecember 11, 2014 Written by JP
There is often disagreement about the safety and validity of medical tests in the holistic, health community. Perhaps the best examples are the use of mammography to detect breast cancer and the PSA blood test to ferret out prostate cancer. However, colonoscopies tend to be less controversial for a number of reasons. Firstly, there really isn't any alternative, stand alone test currently available. Secondly, the documented benefits of colonoscopies far outweigh the low risk of significant side effects. Lastly, as I stated in part one of this column, colonoscopies not only detect potential malignancies, they also remove questionable growths while still benign. For these reasons, integrative health experts such as Dr. Andrew Weil and Dr. Stephen Sinatra endorse this particular test.

Protect Your Colon Part OneDecember 6, 2014 Written by JP
Nobody wants to get a colonoscopy. But, much like going to the dentist, it's a preventive care necessity. Unlike most other diagnostic tests, colonoscopies not only detect cancer, but can also prevent it by removing polyps which may develop into cancer. In fact, researchers from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard recently concluded that colonoscopies are by far the most accurate tests to identify and reduce the risk of cancerous growths both in the distal (right) and proximal (left) sides of the colon.

Natural ADHD AlternativesDecember 4, 2014 Written by JP
A stunning new survey sponsored by the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids reports that 20% of all college students and roughly 15% of non-student young adults abuse stimulant medications. The legal drugs in question, intended to treat ADHD, include best sellers such as Adderall, Ritalin and Vyvanse. The most commonly cited reasons for the noted abuse include a desire to enhance academic or work performance and to stave off normal feelings of nighttime sleepiness. What's even more disturbing is that 28% of the young adults surveyed, aged 18 to 25, misrepresented the severity of their ADHD symptoms in order to attain higher dosages of these conditionally dangerous drugs. In addition, the practice of selling and/or sharing said medications with family, fellow students and friends is quite common.

Hope for HalitosisOctober 29, 2014 Written by JP
It's estimated that approximately 30%-50% of the population is affected by chronic halitosis or oral malodor, the technical terms for ongoing bad breath. In most instances, the cause originates in the oral cavity. Improving dental hygiene is sometimes enough to remedy the situation. In practice, this means brushing at least twice-daily and flossing prior to retiring at night. However, if proper oral care is already in place, then odiferous foods and substances (alcoholic beverages, cruciferous vegetables, garlic and onions, tobacco, etc.) and/or other factors, including diabetes, gastro-esophageal reflux (GERD), medication side-effects and metabolic disorders may be involved. When in doubt, it's best to identify the cause with the assistance of a health care professional as any underlying medical condition should be addressed and not masked.

Healthier Mexican FoodOctober 6, 2014 Written by JP
For Mexican food lovers (myself included!) there is a simple approach to improving the health benefits and nutritional quality of Mexican-style meals. It really doesn't matter if you're eating out at Mexican restaurants or preparing it yourself at home. There are potential pitfalls in both instances which can be largely avoided by practicing a basic technique I call "crowding out". The concept is that you crowd out most or some of the unhealthy foods and replace them with better options. In the realm of Mexican cuisine, this means minimizing your intake of chips, rice, sweetened beverages and tortillas and focusing instead on foods containing more fiber, healthy fat, nutrients and protein.

Mango and Blood SugarSeptember 25, 2014 Written by JP
An ideal diet allows for a combination of health benefits and sensory pleasure. The problem with many dietary plans is that they tend to be rather restrictive. It doesn't matter if it's gluten free, low carbohydrate, Mediterranean or Paleo. So, while they likely fulfill the "health benefits" part of the bargain, they frequently fall short of the "sensory pleasure" component. To some extent, this is a fact of life that needs to be accepted as a necessary compromise. Having said that, on occasion research reveals that select foods typically forbidden in specific meal plans do not have to be avoided altogether. In fact, some commonly shunned foods often add both enjoyment and a healthful boost to restrictive diets.

Prescription 2014: Healthy Caveman MuffinsAugust 18, 2014 Written by JP
Availability and convenience play major roles in maintaining a healthful eating plan. The trouble is that many readily available foods and snacks such as muffins, protein bars and smoothies contain questionable additives and ingredients. But, there's no rule that says you have to compromise convenience in order to stick to a wholesome diet. All you really need to do is learn how to make the types of food you wish you could find at your local market. It's probably easier then you'd imagine and usually a whole lot less expensive as well.

Curry ResearchJuly 7, 2014 Written by JP
Mrs. Healthy Fellow and I are just back from a five-week trip to London and Marrakech. The next few blogs are inspired by our recent time away from home. First stop: London. Whenever we "cross the pond" to jolly ole England we make it a point to eat some great Indian food. And, that means a visit (or two or three) to Dishoom, a Bombay inspired cafe, and Quilon, a regal dining spot which features south western Indian fare. These two delicious destinations have transformed our concept of what authentic Indian food tastes like. An important part of our personal culinary enlightenment is a newly found appreciation for curry.

Still Nuts About Nuts?June 30, 2014 Written by JP
A reader asks: You've written a lot of blogs about nuts and how healthy you believe they are. I'm not convinced though, because you also frequently mention the importance of keeping an eye on one's omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. My understanding is that most nuts are top heavy in omega-6 fatty acids and mostly devoid of omega-3s. These two recommendations seem to be at odds. Am I missing something? Bottom line, what's your current stance on eating nuts and how it relates to the whole omega 6/3 ratio issue?

Prescription 2014: Better Bitter DigestionJune 9, 2014 Written by JP
The word bitter has become synonymous with negative imagery. "That was a bitter pill to swallow." "The night manager was bitter and spiteful about the way his supervisor treated him." "In life you must accept the bitter along with the sweet." The same is true of modern culinary trends. Recipes often call for the addition of sweet ingredients to temper the natural bitterness of popular foods – think hot cocoa, lattes and green leafy vegetables. But, what's frequently lost in translation is that the bitter phytochemicals in common foods and herbs sometimes impart medicinal and/or therapeutic activity.

Coffee Enema ResearchMay 12, 2014 Written by JP
A few weeks ago, I was listening to Dr. Wayne Dyer's popular podcast on Hayhouse Radio. For the most part, Dr. Dyer's programs feature content relating to psychological and spiritual matters. However, from time to time, he shares insights into his personal health care journey. On this particular occasion he revealed that he was enthusiastic about a time honored, natural therapy which supposedly cleanses and detoxifies the liver – coffee enemas. This is by no means a new concept in the field of holistic healing. That said, it has remained quite popular throughout the past several decades much to the scorn of the conventional medical establishment.

Arguably, the reputation of cocoa (Theobroma cacao) is at its high point in history, that is, at least from a health perspective. These days, it's not uncommon to hear esteemed doctors and nutritionists recommend a daily serving of dark chocolate as part of a comprehensive, health promoting diet and lifestyle. And, because of this positive word of mouth, you can now find the largest selection of high quality, organic cocoa products in modern times. But, up until now, the health benefits attributed to dark chocolate consumption and/or supplementation have primarily focused on the inner workings of the body – i.e. cardiovascular health, cognitive function, diabetes and oxidative balance.

Prescription 2014: Lowering HbA1C NaturallyApril 1, 2014 Written by JP
Recently, I saw an advertisement in the Los Angeles Times for a popular medication used to lower hemoglobin A1C, a long-term measure of blood sugar. The ad reads, "If you have type 2 diabetes, your A1C number may be going in the wrong direction. To help change it, ask your doctor if adding Tradjenta may be right for you". Of course, if you read on you'll also notice warnings about possible side effects, including cough, diarrhea, potentially life threatening inflammation of the pancreas, runny nose and sore throat. Still, lowering high blood sugar is a valuable endeavor for diabetics and pre-diabetics alike. So, what to do? To answer that question, here are a few suggestions by Dr. Richard Bernstein, a pioneering maverick in the field of integrative-diabetes care, and current studies from the medical literature.

Volatility increases immediately when CEOs return to work." —David Yermack, a New York University finance professor, whose recently released study shows a correlation between when CEOs take their private jets on vacation and movements in their companies' stock price "

It was fascinating to learn how she found her passion in the field of Deaf-Blindness.
My Long Journey to the Answer - Part 2
Part 2 - Assessment Day
By Carol Dennis
Seven hours of oral and written questions, puzzles, and interviews left me exhausted and exhilarated. The morning after, I felt like my brain had run a marathon - buzzing from all the mental gymnastics. Exhausted, exhilarated, and so glad I did it.
The "it" was having myself tested to see if my long-held suspicion that I have a reading disability is true. (See my previous post for more details.) And the answer turns out to be yes and no. I'll explain that later.

lock(1) To make a file or other piece of data inaccessible. File locking is a critical component of all multi-user computer systems, including local-area networks. When users share files, the operating system must ensure that two or more users do not attempt to modify the same file simultaneously. It does this by locking the file as soon as the first user opens it. All subsequent users may read the file, but they cannot write to it until the first user is finished.
In addition to file locking, many database management systems support record locking, in which a single record, rather than an entire file, is locked. This enables different users to access different records within the same file without interfering with one another.

The Reason We Celebrate
I heard a statement once: Black people love a good party. I didn't take offense. And neither should you. Why shouldn't we love a good party? A celebration? We have a lot to be grateful for. God has done some phenomenal things in our life; within our culture. And continues to do so.

There is no need to feel the stigma of mental illness. It can effect anyone, in any race, in any socioeconomic status. Man, woman, boy or girl. It can also come in the form of depression, physical or mental pain. We do not have to go it alone, and should seek the help of mental health counselors.

Solar? Drip Irrigation
My son is working on a Scouting project to create 3 plating beds at our local library to use to teach kids/adults about gardening.
We would like to keep the irrigation process as green as possible, but also automated. We will be using a 50-gallon rain barrel tapped into the gutter downspout. Home depot has a solar pump dip irrigation kit. Our beds will not be too big i surmise, one 10x3 and the other 2 5x5. We will be planting herbs in the long bed and various vegetables in the other two beds.
FlowerHouse Solar Powered Automatic Drip Watering System - http://www.homedepot.com/p/FlowerHouse-Solar-Powered-Automatic-Drip-Watering-System-SOL-K12/203052611#product_description
We live in NJ, so the summers will be hot, but we will not deal with heat all the time like in some southern states. the garden will be in en enclosed courtyard with trees so the direct sunlight will be less instense than if we were working in an open space.
There is electrical in the courtyard so if the solar pumps are not recommended we could go another direction. We are working on a limited budget so the solution can not be more than a couple of hunderd dollars for the pump and the tubing.
Any good advice would be appreciated.
Buy one solar unit and let us know what it is like in your opinion. The reviews say the solar pump has to be above the drippers. So some of the power is spent sucking up the water from the tank and then gravity flow to the plants. Time filling up a gallon or half gallon container and let us know how long it takes. Then we can analyze how many units are needed to give you enough water. Your best bet, if you don't absolutely need solar, is a small submersible pump set on the bottom of the barrel and pumps from there. The submersible pump would have its wire go into the barrel from the top and its discharge line coming out of top to into your drip system. Is it very raining in this area or will the barrel need filling occasionally from a nearby source? Good Luck JMHO Aloha

Apart from the $429,275 covering the quality assurance contract won by Geolink this year there appears to be no guaranteed money and any further funding to actually progress and build the new bridge may not be in the 2015-16 budget – or in the budget the year after that or the year after that or the year after that……

Recommended by my sister's mother, I decided to give it a try. It reminds me of England's countryside. The scent is light and floral, definitely a daytime fragrance. It is similar to Crabtree and Evelyn's Lily of the Valley. Although the scent was pleasant from the sample bottle, I couldn't rationalize spending the asking [$] on the bottle.

Comments about Annick Goutal Petite Cherie Perfume:
This is a really beautiful daytime fragrance; clean, fresh and quite unique.
I find it starts with a true pear scent and dries down to a subtle, clean fragrance.
On a hot summers day it brings a feeling of coolness to the surrounding air- the freshness you feel when standing in the rain on a hot, humid day.
It is very unique and is unlike anything i have used before.
I love oriental fragrance notes, but they are too heavy for work. This is 'easy on the nose' and would be suitable for any environment.
It is not overly sweet, floral or citrus; nor do i find it boring or bland.
It is a fragrance of quality and style.
If you want something a little different to wear during summer, a fragrance that people will like to be being around- this is your perfume.

House Junod, old distillery in Pontarlier, collapsed August 22, 2013, fortunately no casualties, workers who were inside, unable to get out without being injured.
No victim, it may not be if course, you will understand why.
A security perimeter has been set up, blocking the movement of street in Besançon. Local residents were evacuated because of the risk posed by a building in ruins.
The expert of the Administrative Tribunal of Besançon decided to use demolition full and rapid building, having found that it is more possible to consolidate.
The owner asked a second opinion to know the cause of the disaster, namely if there is a defect in construction of the building of the 19th century or a foul committed on a neighbouring site.
These procedures have delayed the development of the construction but now there is more time to lose, the demolition should be completed to make the neighbourhood his normal life. However, since these three weeks, "Gray", European grey tabby cat missing. His worried masters were placarded with posters with his picture and it are looking for.
William, wrecker, said seeing it in the rest of the second floor: "I tried a t – he declared him tinker a small bridge with wooden beams to allow all gray down from upstairs".
The cat is well down and with two of his colleagues, William attempted to catch it, but the little beast, terrorized, has spun through a hole in the cellar.
Guillaume, sensitive to the fate of the cat that survives for three weeks in the ruins of the building thanks to food remained on the table and in the closets, said that he would do everything possible to not to injure it with his bulldozer. Aware of the danger, he must still complete the construction in order to make the street to traffic.
Residents wish to resume a normal life. "Any grey" is apparently not a cat used to exit. It certainly is very disturbed by the demolition of his home, he clings tenaciously to the idea of staying in the House although it is restricted more and more as the demolition. It is now entrenched in the cellar.
Hope that William will succeed to get him out. We do not want this disaster to make a victim, was it a cat.

Home made cut paste
I've heard you can make up your own with kid's modeling clay and other items.
Anyone have a recipe?
The anti "bonsai on the cheap" brigade are probably starting to froth at the mouth right about now.
But none other than Colin Lewis does recommend plasticine mixed with a little vegetable oil to keep it soft as a viable alternative to the "real McCoy" Japanese cut paste.(can be expensive, can be hard to find and can be hard to know that you've got the right stuff sometimes)
The odd time I do seal a large wound, that's what I use, but it's only very occasional as I'm in the "don't seal a cut very often" school.
Bottom line - compromising on bonsai accessories is never going to improve your bonsai but it may save you a few bucks/pounds here and there.
Certain things are a must I would suggest like proper wire, decent tools and general good bonsai practice as recommended in most books.
Best to "toe the traditional line" when it comes to this type of thing IMHO.
How about vaseline?(petroleum jelly)
This is inert with no added chemicals, and I have used this on trees and shrubs in the garden(non-bonsai so far)
It is a bit greasy tho but it does wear off
Trigger, plasticine is what kids use for modelling so you shoyuld be able to get it from a toy store)play doh)
DON'T USE "PLAY DOH" it is comprised mostly of salt and that sure as hell isn't good for a tree! Plus it dries and cracks when exposed to air. Plastilene=plasticene is an oil based modelling clay whereas "play-doh" is water-based; don't confuse the two, the results may be unpleasant.
I don't agree that cut paste is difficult to obtain, there are several on-line bonsai vendors that stock it, Stonelantern being one of them (and no, I don't work for them) and that isn't where I got mine.
There was a time when I didn't use anything on cuts, basically because I wasn't aware there was such a thing available. A club member insisted that I try it, and from that day forth, my trees all look a lot better because the wounds actually callous over instead of dry out and never callous over. It may be different in a more humid climate, but here in the desert, wounds have a VERY hard time callousing over if not sealed.
My problem with the made in Japan cut paste available through a variety of sources is that since it is an imported product for a specialty market, it is more exensive.
I just find it hard to believe there isnt a more easily available substance that does the same thing.
Cause it is 12 bucks for a small quantity. There has got to be a more cost effective way to do the job. I cant see how spending money effeciently makes someone froth at the mouth. Doing bonsai right does not automatically equate to spending piles of cash. Besides there are many demands on the limited pile of cash I have.
Diapers or cut paste? diapers win out
Hard to tell a 16 month old she has to hold it till next pay check.
"Doing bonsai right does not automatically equate to spending piles of cash."
Well, sometimes it does, like it or not. Cut paste isn't one of those times though. Believe it or not, though, the $12 tub of the stuff might be more cost effective in the long run. I had a tub of it for a dozen years and I bought it for $8. That's probably less than what the basic ingredients to make your own will cost...
I frequently use dripped candle wax, especially on the larger pruned roots. I don't know if this is a no-no but my plants don't seem to care. I once used brownish acrylic paint on a large cut on an azalea branch but that was a mistake. The wound simply would not callouse.
Any comments?
Sealing root cuts can be a bad thing. It can lead to root rot--since sealing can not only keep water out, but seal it in. The sealant can also prevent new rootlets from forming.
Sealing root cuts is unecessary anyway, as they are in little danger of drying out unless you don't water...
There are many "specialty" products that have inflated price tags that the affluent love to flaunt. Cut paste is one that affects the bonsai community.
I am not an expert, but I'm also not a novice (1978). I have been using Elmers (carpenter) glue for those 27 years. I have had no problems. It does the job, and is not all that offensive looking. I have sprinkled sand on it, at times, while wet, and a friend has went so far as to place pieces of bark on the wet glue. Looks good and lasts for years. I have a Chin. Quince that I have had for over 10 years. I have been working on a huge root mass for all this time I am now about to address the top (I have already taken two airlayers off of it). Previous owner had used cut pa$te quite extensivly... and it is UGLY. I will post a photo in the gallery. After three major root reductions,it still is in a too big pot, but I want to start up on the top now that I'm done with the airlayering. I WILL be using Elmers Carpenter glue.
Here is a link that might be useful: Cutpaste
Most cuts should be left to heal by their own devices, does anyone go around sealing full grown trees after a storm has ripped a branch off? Cut paste (or the equivalent) should only be used around the edge of a serious chop to aid the callousing process, the middle should be be left open to allow the tree to heal itself.
"does anyone go around sealing full grown trees after a storm has ripped a branch off?"
Well, actually, it depends on the tree. If the tree is a valuable one on someone's property, sometimes such a wound is sealed. Nature doesn't seal wounds, but then that's why some trees die in the wild. Infection can and does enter naturally wounded trees, sometimes resulting in the tree's death.
my grandfather used plain old tar on his trees in his yard.He had some very nice trees.Now remember he was 75 years old and that was back in the 60's. Things and produces are not the same now and most folks had a bucket of tar for there roofs....LOL
I think i read in one of my books that you can use clay(not like modeling clay like the clay you dont wanna find if you need to dig somewhere), or mud mixed almost to a paste. and sometimes mixed with shoe polish if needed for color, or growth hormone to help heal.
i have never used this but its worth a try. I cant really see it being harmfull to a plant.
I made home made cut paste with this recipe:
Mix equal amounts of candle wax and vegetable oil together.
Melt it in an old saucepan inside a container sitting on boiling water. Take the container out of the saucepan when it is melted and leave it to cool until its like slippery gloop when you stir it. Add some ground cinnamon as a fungicide and colouring. Then get a whisk and whisk it for a few minutes until it is fluffy like chocolate mousse and not warm when you touch it. You can put it in a jar and use it when you need to. Dip your fingers in water before you use it because it is a bit sticky.
when I first started in bonsai (at age 14) i used modeling clay and oil but it still seemed to dry out and get hard and cling to the wound horribly. No matter how hard I worked on mixing the colors the red would fade out and it would end up green. I forget how much I paid for it but it didn't seem to work very well at all. After I went to my first bonsai show my uncle suggested I purchase a tub of cutpaste. It was only $10 then and I still have the same tub today and it's not even halfway gone (7 years later) and I put it on every large wound that I create which is a lot when you take into consideration the fact that I mostly start with overgrown landscape shrubs that people give me.
I also recently got a tube of the medicated cutpaste from a raffle. It does get a bit orange before it fades to brown and it smells a bit like Elmer's glue though the consistency is thicker. Both of these things do their job of preventing the wound from drying out and they're fairly inexpensive. I've had some large wounds heal over very nicely, but that also has a lot to do with the wound prep too.
Honestly, if saving $9 over a 15 year period is that important then go ahead and make your cutpaste.
Hi all,
Thanks for posting on this. I was just in the market for cut paste, and it seemed awfully expensive what with shipping for such a little jar. Anyway, I tripped over this site in the hopes of finding a homemade preparation.
If it's simply a clay, I have some Pescalite sitting in my bathroom I'll just mix up with water or oil and use (Pescalite is a bentonite clay in powder form used for its antiseptic qualities). Thanks again!
I bought some Japanese cut paste about three years ago for ten dollars Australian. It's lasted a long time and I have hardly dipped into the tub. I highly recommend to the bonsai enthusiast that you purchase some. Think of it as an investment for your trees as it is not that expensive and it lasts you about 10-15 years generally.

Better than the old "amber" Martin picks.As reviewed by Ronald Powers on 4/16/2014
I buy picks in large quantities, not because I lose them often, but to get a better cost per pick. It's been several years since I needed new ones, and I prefer the amber-colored Martin picks that have a diamond pattern on the part you hold. Unfortunately, these are no longer made and can be as much as $5.00 each on Ebay. I was bummed until I finally came across these Fred Kelley picks. The price is great and what's even better is that they cross-hatch pattern makes them even more secure than the Martin's. Praise God (and Fred Kelley) for making a good product better; in fact the medium and light gauge (green & blue respectively) are even better looking.1 of 1 people found this review helpful.Was this review helpful?Thank You for rating this review!

DIY Beach-Towel Tote Bag by marthastewart #Beach_Towel #Tote #marthastewart
Keep track of beach essentials -- sunscreen, novels, flip-flops -- by sinking them in a corner pocket. To make four pockets, take a sheet or a lightweight blanket and two 14-inch squares of linen or cotton. Cut each square into two triangles. Fold all edges over 1/2 inch, and press. Fold long edge of each triangle over another 1/2 inch, and sew across to hem. Pin the triangles to the corners of the blanket. Sew the short sides of the triangles to the blanket's corners...

Glad Tidings
Muhammad Mahdi Muntadhar
Through the true faiths He sent in the past, Almighty Allah has spoken of a difficult time, the End Times, full of strife, war, oppression and troubles, when killing and acts of terror reach a peak, and when there will be natural disasters and economic crises. Almighty Allah has revealed that Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will appear with the title of "the guide to faith" as a savior for the whole world in this final age, when the world will be in a state of terrible disorder, and has told all mankind about this blessed individual.
These glad tidings have been imparted to both Muslims and religious Jews in their own holy books. The Qur'an contains important references to the way of the Mahdi and the global dominion of the moral values of Islam. Hadiths handed down from our Prophet (saas) describe Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and the End Times in great detail. In the same way, the events of the End Times and the appearance of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) as a leader who will bring peace and security to the whole world are also clearly set out in the Torah and the Zabur (Psalms). This blessed individual who will appear in the End Times, described in the Torah and the Zabur by such names as the MESSIAH, the KING MESSIAH and SHILOH (the one who is sent, the gift of Allah), is Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Therefore, in the End Times in which we are living, and in the light of our Lord's promise, it is essential for Muslims and religious Jews TO DESIRE THE WAY OF THE MAHDI, ANNOUNCE THE COMING OF HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH) AND ENGAGE IN PRELIMINARY ACTIVITIES FOR THAT COMING. This is a major religious obligation that people have to fulfill.
The supporters of the anti-Messiah resort to underhand strategies in order to conceal the tidings of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)
As we know, there have been supporters of the anti-Messiah at all times, who have been alarmed by the coming of the prophets and the mahdis sent to various communities at different times and who have waged campaigns against them. These people have used all their material powers and mobilized all the means at their disposal in order to wage intensive campaigns against the prophets and the spiritual leaders of the time. This is the law of our Lord Allah. Allah creates such a climate of struggle in this world in order for the value and importance of the spiritual struggle waged by prophets and messengers to be properly understood, to increase the rewards of those who follow them and for them to enjoy great ease and comfort in the Hereafter. This is a test, a pleasure and a blessing for believers.
In the End Times in which we are living, the same devilish methods are being used by various forces, and the same underhand tricks are being resorted to. Cunning efforts are being made to conceal the glad tidings of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Since the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) in the End Times means a crushing defeat for the anti-Messiah, THE ANTI-MESSIAH AND HIS SUPPORTERS ARE ENGAGED IN INTENSIVE EFFORTS TO CONCEAL THE GLAD TIDINGS OF THE MAHDI. One of the methods employed for that purpose is to bring up the false mahdis and messiahs who emerged in the past and to try to give the impression that the Mahdi of the End Times will not be coming. Using this method, the supporters of the anti-Messiah accuse everyone and all societies that speak of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) of making empty, fraudulent promises.
As a result of the anti-Messiah's intensive propaganda,
some Muslims and religious Jews who are awaiting Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) – known as the King Messiah in the Torah – and who wish to tell others the glad tidings of his coming, are becoming wearied of the reactions, criticism and mockery they will attract from people and are retreating from the fray.
Because of their previous experiences and this intense policy of intimidation
they are very wary and are keeping silent because of the probability they will be pressurized
. In this way, they are defeated by the anti-Messiah. USING PSYCHOLOGICAL PRESSURE, INTIMIDATION AND THREATS, THE ANTI-MESSIAH IS TRYING TO PREVENT MUSLIMS AND RELIGIOUS JEWS FROM SPEAKING OF HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH) (THE KING MESSIAH) AND FROM TELLING OTHERS OF HIS COMING.
At this point, some Muslims and religious Jews who believe in the true Mahdi are actually FALLING FOR THIS TRICK OF THE ANTI-MESSIAH'S and are choosing to remain silent because of this totally unnecessary fear on their part. This snare of the anti-Messiah's has had an effect on some people as one of the distinguishing features of the End Times. However, the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is an absolute certainty and NO PLAN ON THE PART OF THE ANTI-MESSIAH CAN POSSIBLY STOP IT.
The true adherents of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) must not fall for the anti-Messiah's tricks
Rumors of the coming of false mahdis and the way that the anti-Messiah will try to hinder the supporters of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) are portents of the End Times revealed by our Prophet (saas). For that reason, the appearance of false mahdis and messiahs is actually a portent of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Some hadiths on the subject handed down from our Prophet (saas) read:
The Day of Reckoning will not take place until some thirty liars are sent,
each one claiming to be the Messenger of Allah.
(Tirmidhi, Kitab al-Fitan: 43; Abu Dawud, Kitab ul-Malahim: 16)
The coming of sixty liars,
each one claiming he has been sent as a Messenger from Allah, the Sole Object of Worship.
(Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 36)
Of course the anti-Messiah will seek to hinder Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), who will put an end to and inflict a huge defeat on him by intellectual means, and his supporters. True believers devoted to Allah with an intense love know that they will be put through such a test and are prepared to face such an intellectual struggle. Therefore, the vile snares, false successes, threats and intimidation on the part of the anti-Messiah MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO FRIGHTEN BELIEVERS, BUT MUST ON THE CONTRARY INCREASE THEIR FERVOR AND POWER OF COMMUNICATION.
If true believers, be they Muslims or religious Jews, await the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and have no doubts regarding Allah's promise, then they must engage in intensive activities to that end. They must not be deceived by the indoctrination from forces that imagine they can seek to hinder them or forget the subject entirely. The more these forces try to make people forget about the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), THE MORE DEVOUT BELIEVERS MUST SPEAK ABOUT THE WAY OF THE MAHDI. The more they praise the glory of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), act as his vanguard and keep raising the subject, the greater abundance and blessings they will enjoy. Because of this genuine and sincere activity, the WAY AHEAD OF THE supporters of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) WILL BE OPENED UP. There is no doubt that Allah WILL BESTOW THE GREATEST VICTORY AND THE FINEST OUTCOME on those who praise and prepare the way for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) who will be sent in the End Times, and who espouse the way of the Mahdi despite all these intimidatory tactics.
For that reason, no Muslim or religious Jew must be reluctant to speak of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). On the contrary, it is a most excellent religious observance for true believers to praise the glory of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) IN ORDER TO ENRAGE, WEAR DOWN AND DEFEAT THE ANTI-MESSIAH. The solution to all the corruption, the disputes and bloodshed in the world, the oppression and terror, the vice and irreligion in the End Times, IS TO DESIRE THE COMING OF HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH) AND STRIVE TO BRING IT ABOUT. No other tactic or measure can bring about a solution, unless our Lord so wills it.
True Muslims and religious Jews must honestly and sincerely believe THAT THE WORLD IS CREATED TO BE METAPHYSICAL, that our Lord Almighty Allah is unfettered by natural causes, and that if Almighty Allah so ordains, all images, environments and conditions can change with no need for natural causes behind them. THEY MUST NOT FORGET THAT ALL POWER LIES WITH ALLAH, LORD OF THE WORLDS, ALONE. They must pray and strive for Allah's promise to be made good and for the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Of course Almighty Allah, the Compassionate and Merciful, will heed true believers' prayers. BY ALAH'S LEAVE, HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH) WILL DEFINITELY APPEAR, AND VICTORY WILL GO TO HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH) AND HIS GENUINE FOLLOWERS. This is the truth and Allah's promise. And Allah's promise will definitely be kept.
It is He Who created the heavens and the earth with truth. The day He says 'Be!' it is. His speech is Truth. The Kingdom will be His on the Day the Trumpet is blown, the Knower of the Unseen and the Visible. He is the All-Wise, the All-Aware. (Surat al-An'am. 73)
