All essential oils need to be diluted wih carrier oils before application. Carrier oils also referred to as base oils or vegetable oils are used to dilute essential oils, CO2s and absolutes before applying to the skin. Different carrier oils offer different properties and the choice of carrier oil can depend on the therapeutic benefit being sought.
Carrier oils are generally cold-pressed vegetable oils derived from the fatty portions of the plant. Unlike essential oils that evaporate and have a concentrated aroma, carrier oils do not evaporate or impart their aroma as strongly as essential oils.

GOUVERNEUR Day one of the Gouverneur and St. Lawrence County Fair kicked off with a 4-H goat show Tuesday morning in the sheep barn.
Dressed all in white as part of a goat showing tradition, children and teens from across the county showed off their animals to the crowd of families and friends.
The show was organized by different classes for fitting and showmanship determined by the age and category of the goats.
These are mostly dairy goats, said John A. Hunter, Gouverneur, superintendent of the sheep, goats, rabbits and chickens building. Right now the judge is working with them, trying to see which one of them handles their animal the best and shes asking them questions about the conformation of the goats to see if they know what the parts of the animal are.
Darlene A. Nason, Brushton, was the judge for the show. Shes been a goat farmer since 1979 and runs Woodlan Acres Farm with her daughter.
Although shes been judging 4-H goat shows for 30 years in Franklin County, Monday was her first time judging for an event in the St. Lawrence County Fair.
Its great for the kids because it shows them so much responsibility, she said. It is tough for kids to come in and handle a goat that doesnt want to behave.
Ms. Nason said that goat shows are a good way for youngsters to get started caring for animals.
Goats are a beautiful small-animal project that give the kids self-confidence, responsibility, respect and it takes a lot of guts to get in there, Ms. Nason said.
Monday marked the first time Emily J. Ames, 9, Canton, participated in a goat show, which is now her favorite aspect of the fair. She and her 3-month-old goat Debbie took home a ribbon during the junior showmanship competition.
Passing out ribbons and trophies to the winners was Camryn V. Chester, 12, Madrid, who was named the St. Lawrence County Dairy Princess in June.
Naomi A. Moon, 12, and her goat Leah brought home a first place trophy for junior showmanship.
She said the goat show is her favorite part of the fair because she gets to spend time with the animals.
Miss Moons brother Seth J., 17, also went home with a first place trophy. He and his 5-year-old goat Amber won the showmanship round. He said hes been showing goats at the fair for 10 years.
Ive gone to over 50 shows throughout my life, so I had a lot of experience for this, he said. I like the challenge that the goats present and getting them ready for the show.
Mr. Moon said his family owns Moon Valley Meadows, a goat and sheep farm in Gouverneur.
We have worked very hard over the years to promote goats and sheep because theres a lot of benefits to having them, said Anna E. Moon, Seths and Naomis mother. The kids are excited every year to come show and see how well they can do.

Can I Get a Hallelujah?
Hozier • blues, indie, soul
By Cerridwen Stucky
You probably remember that in January a song filled the radio that made you say amen more than you had since going to church with your family as a child. Hozier's "Take Me To Church" was in the top 100 singles in the U.S. for three weeks. His soft acoustic style paired with sorrowful crooning seemed to be just what the United States wanted and soon he started his countrywide tour. His show at Sandia Resort & Casino will be his smallest venue played. If you are in the mood for some romanticized angst or upbeat songs about awful things then this is the show for you.

El Angel de la Musica
José González • indie, folk • Riothorse Royale
By Megan Reneau
Heads up—an angel named José González drops down from heaven and lands at Sunshine Theater on Monday, Oct. 12. González's voice is heavenly and when combined with his soothing classical guitar melodies, causes elation of the senses and profound introversive relaxation (totally how angels should make you feel, from what I understand). González lives up to the hype, continually getting amazing album and concert reviews. He'll likely play music from his long-awaited album (seven years we've been waiting), Vestiges & Claws. Opening for González is Riothorse Royale. The duo create beautiful, kindred harmonies. For $22, this show is a promising break from everyday life and a much welcome ending to a Monday evening.

Subject Matter: Physical Science
National Standards: NS.5-8.1, NS.5-8.2
Pieces of wool cloth
Dry cereal (preferably Cheerios)
Access to a working water faucet
Proton: a positively charged particle found inside the nucleus of an atom.
Neutron: a neutral particle found in the nucleus of an atom. Neutral particles contain no charge.
Electron: a negatively charged particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom.
Static Electricity: a buildup of an electric charge on an object.
Have students watch the Science Friday Video, "Bringing Down the Bolt". Lead a discussion with the students on what we know about how lightning is formed as seen in the video. What is a spark and how are sparks created? Tell students that lightning is an enormous spark, or electric discharge, and is one of the effects of static electricity. Tell students that they are going to conduct three experiments to observe other effects of static electricity.
Create a chart with a numbered column for each experiment. After each experiment, discuss and record their observations in the appropriate column.
Have students crush the dry cereal into small crumbs. Make sure students do not crush the cereal into powder.
Have students inflate a balloon with air and tie it off. Ask students what do they think they should do to the balloon to create static electricity. What action was demonstrated in the video to create a spark?
Have students vigorously rub the inflated balloon on the wool. Ask students what they think is happening on a molecular level to the balloon as they are rubbing it.
Have students place the part of the balloon being rubbed close to the crushed cereal without actually touching it. Have students observe and discuss what happened. Why did the cereal jump onto the balloon?
Have students tie a piece of the dry cereal to a string and tape the other end of the string onto the edge of a table so that the cereal will hang freely.
Have students rub the balloon on the wool again and then bring the balloon near the hanging piece of cereal. Ask students to describe what happened when the balloon came close to the cereal. What happened after the balloon and cereal touched?
Tell students that they are going to try the same experiment with water. Ask students to predict what will happen if they place the balloon near a running stream of water after rubbing it against the wool.
Have students rub the balloon against the wool and then hold the balloon near a thin stream of running water (about 1/8th of an inch thick) from a nearby faucet. Ask students to describe what happened. Why did the stream of water bend towards the balloon?
How can static electricity cause your hair to stand up?
What would happen if you brought a positively charged object next to the stream of water, instead of the negatively charged balloon?
What are some beneficial uses of static electricity? What are some harmful effects of static electricity?
Explain the relationship between static electricity and lightning.
Why do tall skyscrapers have lightning rods on top of them?
Experiment with other materials (such as confetti, Styrofoam, salt or pepper) to see what the charged balloon will attract. Have students compare and contrast their observations for each material.
Have students list examples of static electricity in their everyday lives. What are the processes that cause each of these examples to happen?
Draw a diagram to illustrate what happens to the electrons in the clouds and on the ground during a lightning storm.
Use magnets to demonstrate how opposite charges attract and similar charges repel.
Learn more about lightning through this interactive online activity.
Try this Exploratorium experiment to produce a spark that you can see, hear and feel.

A work choreographed by NSU students Kristi Anne-Lyons and Polanco Jones, "Living Water," was presented along with a work by Lauren Bovia of Maurepas and Shalem Johnson that will be performed in an informal concert.
Faculty members Brett Alan Garfinkel, Rebecca Morgan and Kirstin Riehl taught masterclasses and workshops. Garfinkel will present a group work that will be judged by dance professionals.
"Living Water" featured Jones, Kathleen Kerner, Clinisha Chandler, Lauren Bovia and Julian Anderson.
"It started as an assignment for a class. Each of us had to find a partner and create a dance for a benefit concert," said Lyons. "We created the work for the American Cancer Society."
Lyons said the work opened in a doctor's office where each dancer is diagnosed with a different type of cancer. Each of them is initially discouraged to the point they are almost defeated when Bovia encourages them to fight back.
"All of them but Clinisha are able to beat cancer," said Lyons. "We wanted to be hopeful, but to show that not everyone is able to be cured."
According to Lyons, the collaboration with Jones has been rewarding.
"Both Polanco and I are unique and creative," said Lyons. "He speaks in his own language as he is creating, but I understand him. We came together on the work and allowed the music to inspire us without leading us."
Lyons was excited about having her work judged by dance professionals and says it is "like a cherry on top for me" as she prepares to graduate in May.
Students were able to attend the conference thanks to an Organizational Relief Fund Grant from the NSU Student Government Association.
The Theatre and Dance program will perform "Revelations of Dance" April 19-20 in the A.A. Fredericks Auditorium. The work presented by Garfinkel will be performed. The student works will be performed at a Senior Dance Concert on April 27.

The Maya Biosphere Reserve is a rainforest stronghold for jaguars, pumas, scarlet macaws, and howler monkeys. During the Northern Hemisphere winter, millions of migratory birds also take shelter here. The reserve is situated at the heart of the Selva Maya, a forested area that spans neighboring portions of Guatemala, Belize, and Mexico. It serves as a critical watershed for the surrounding communities and as a major carbon sink for the entire planet. As the epicenter of the ancient Maya civilization from 350 B.C. to 900 A.D., the forest's 200 archaeological sites draw tourists from around the world, bringing much needed revenue.
Ramon, or breadnut, is among the crops harvested by local communities in the Maya Biosphere Reserve. The nutrient-rich seed was once a staple of the Mayas, whose civilization was centered here.
Millions of people walk and bicycle across the Brooklyn Bridge every year, but few know that the wood planks of the promenade come from tropical rainforests. Together with various partners, WCS has created an initiative to replace the aging planks of the boardwalk with sustainably harvested wood from Guatemala's Uaxactún community forest. If supported by city officials, the project will secure contributions from New Yorkers and city visitors for each of the bridge's 11,000 new planks. The financial endowment raised through plank sponsorship would in turn provide Uaxactún community members with the resources needed to protect their forest; proceeds would also benefit conservation efforts within New York City.
At their last remaining stronghold in Guatemala, scarlet macaw chicks are getting a head start with the help of WCS conservationists. The researchers monitor the critically endangered birds' nests and habitat in the forests of El Peru, and care for vulnerable chicks at a field station until they are old enough to be released back into the wild.
Threats loom within Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, a vast natural sanctuary that protects more than 5 million acres. Jaguars, pumas, monkeys, and tapirs are some of the species fighting to survive in a place jeopardized by drug cartels, illegal logging, and commercial hunting.
After last year's successful scarlet macaw nesting season in the Maya Biosphere Reserve, which produced a bumper crop of 29 new fledglings, WCS conservationists like Melvin Merida, a field veterinarian, are hoping to continue the upward trend for the critically endangered parrots.
WCS conservationists in Guatemala are using a swanky scent to lure jaguars and other endangered wildlife toward motion-sensitive
cameras that snap photos of the animals as they pass by. The photos help researchers
estimate population numbers for these shy species.

|A very fun scramble up the ridge. Summited with another solo climber and a group of 4 from Wa. I did Galena Peak the day before which made for sore legs to start, and a grim death march back to the car. I love it! My first 12er!

|great day for a hike of Hyndman. My dog and I completed out first Idaho 12er. The trail was very well marked, I would definitely recommend staying to the right while on the ridge climbing towards the summit. Nothing like sitting up there for 45 minutes with the summit all to ourselves and enjoying the view of the surrounding ranges and the basin.

|Too hot! Napped in the shade above the Yert for hours. Late afternoon, hiked to the lake at 9,000' and went for a swim (over 90 degrees). Spent the night beside this pond. 2nd day up to the top. Spent 4 hours on top. Back down to the pond for another swim and night. Big electrical storm that night! Hiked out 3rd morning. This is the easy and fun way to hike!!!

|Great climb on a warm 4th of July weekend! Brian T and I took the long trek upward toward the mountain. Still a good bit of snow in and around the basin. We approached the saddle with a high traverse to the left of the basin in some loose rock. Would have been better to stay slow and trudge through the snow because it was actually still pretty firm. It did make for a great glissade on the way back. From the saddle the ridge looked a little intimidating but step by step scrambling we made it to the summit. The views were awesome and we could see the Lost River Range clearly. We watched a lightning storm in the Devil's bedstead below. After the summit, the six mile return seemed to take forever!
This was #2 of the 9 12r's. We hope to get some more in this summer.
The driving directions and description are a little off, so just turn left a mile outside of Triumph and proceed 4.5 miles to the trailhead. There is no road closure sign or gate as described in the original directions but the trailhead is at the North Fork of the Hyndman Creek and there is parking and an well maintained outhouse there.

|My 6th (of 9 total) Idaho 12k + high peak. Hyndman is actually considered the easiest technically, but I think the longest distance wise. This is actually my 4th attempt on the peak funny enough. First time was just after moving to idaho and went up the wrong canyon to start. Second time was in the spring and the snow was too deep. 3rd time was late fall and got into some unexpected snow conditions... this time it was cool and crisp - perfect hiking conditions. Made it up and back in a little over 7 hours with a 30 min break on the summit.

|Disappointing, altitude got me at 10,800 and had to turn around. Was feeling fine at 10K and it just came on quick. Felt fine at 10K on the way down. Weird, wild stuff. Oh well, the mountain isn't going anywhere. Beautiful area. Rode bike for the first 3 miles. Very fun ride back to the car. Left trailhead at 8:45, turned around at noon, back to the bike at 1:20, 11 and half minutes to the car from there. I will be back!

Dino Mascot
Carbon High students dressed up in Dinosaur costumes during the Homecoming parade in September.
Mascot-wise, the Longhorn is no match for the Dino.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex has been extinct for over 65,000,000 years but its impact is still being felt in Price and across the state of Utah recently. Not by terrorizing people or going on a rampage, but by beating out other high school mascots across the state in a contest created to eventually find the best mascot in the country.
The Carbon High Dino mascot beat out other mascots from across Utah including the Davis Darts, Escalante Moquis, Jordan Beetdiggers and Manti Templars to be chosen as the Best Mascot in Utah in a contest run by the USA Today High School Sports. CHS Athletic Director Ted Bianco said the Dinos were down by 7,000 votes on Monday to Davis before mounting a frantic final rally to tally 33,402 votes to Davis' 28,308 in time for Tuesday's deadline.
Since hearing about the contest, Bianco said the school has rallied around the idea of helping to make the Dino mascot be known as not just the best in the state, but one of the most unique in the country.
"They've (CHS students) been really excited about the contest and helped rally to get enough votes at the last minute to win," said Bianco. "It's got everyone talking now and it shows deep down our kids have a lot of school spirit."
While the Dino mascot garners plenty of attention on its own for being unique, it is believed to be the only one of its kind across the nation. With that in mind, Carbon High students, staff, faculty and alumni are hoping that uniqueness will help in carrying the Dino to larger heights as the contest enters the second round. The Dino, one of 255 mascots from across the country chosen to participate in the contest, is currently matched up in Region 6 with other best mascots from western states including California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Hawaii and Alaska.
While the Dinos were able to beat out the Davis Darts, now they must face off against a different set of mascots including the Coalinga Horned Toads, the Gabbs Tarantulas, the Maui Prep Pueo, the Oregon Episcopal Aardvarks, the Orofino Maniacs, the Ridgefield Spudders, the Tikigaq Harpooners and the Yuma Criminals.
"They've got some weird mascots in this round, that's for sure," said Bianco. "However, I think the Dinosaur is as unique as any other school's mascot across the nation."
Carbon High School Principal Bruce Bean said he is familiar with the Orofino Maniacs after spending some time living in Idaho. In their profile on the USA Today High School Sports website, the Maniacs were given their name before the state built a psychiatric hospital in Orofino a short time later.
While the Dinos will have plenty of work to do against other mascots such as the Criminals, Spudders and Aardvarks, Bean said the contest provides a chance to show how the school, the students and the community can rally together in support of their one-of-a-kind mascot.
"We let the student body know about the contest recently and it's just taken off since then," said Bean. "It has kind of caught more fire and got the students interested than I thought it would."
Voting in the second round will continue through March 14 at 3 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. Those looking to support the Carbon High Dino can visit http://contest.usatodayhss.com/ to vote and read about the other mascots involved in the contest.
If the Carbon High Dino gets enough votes and beats out the other eight mascots in region voting, the Dino will advance to the national voting with six mascots from across the country in the final part of the voting that will take place from March 15-25.
The national winner of the contest will receive $2,000 for their athletic department. Second place would receive $1,000, third ($500), fourth ($250) and fifth ($100).
While the money would be nice, the notoriety of having your school's mascot named as the best in the nation would be worth so much more. Bianco explained that the Dino being named best in the state is a tremendous accomplishment and any success in the next round of voting would be even better.
"It's cool for our school to make it out of the state by being named the best mascot but it's going to get a lot more difficult in the next round," he said.
"There isn't another Carbon High Dino out there in the nation and you've got to be proud of that," said Bean. "We've got a very unique mascot and this is our chance to show the country about the power of the Carbon High Dino."

Back in the 1970's, a young man named Dick Hayne planted a seed in the maze of streets and trees that make up West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He opened a store and called it Free People. Free People nurtured the young people who lived there and shopped there, who looked for a little of their own freedom in the clothes they wore.
As Dick's store grew from one to two, the name was changed from Free People to Urban Outfitters. In time, his wife Meg came on to tend Urban's private label division, which supported product exclusive to Urban Outfitters. Demand was almost immediate and to meet this overwhelming need, she and Dick decided to create a wholesale line. It was very well-received, so much so that Dick separated the businesses. For a while, the wholesale line took on many personalities: Bulldog, Ecote, Cooperative, Anthropologie, and then in 1984 a new life was breathed into the name Free People. Free People shed its junior image and evolved into a more mature, contemporary brand. This allowed twenty-something women to appreciate the line of clothing that catered to their intelligence, creativity and individuality, while keeping with its great quality and affordability. In 2001, the team realized that it was really Free People that invoked some of their favorite images, those of femininity, courage, and spirit.
They wanted to reach a 26-year-old girl, smart, creative, confident and comfortable in all aspects of her being, free and adventurous, sweet to tough to tomboy to romantic. A girl who likes to keep busy and push life to its limits, with traveling and hanging out and everything in between. Who loves Donovan as much as she loves The Dears, and can't resist petting any dog that passes her by on the street.Today Free People draws, designs, sews and buys for her, offering her countless options within their own Free People collection, so that even if she takes her best pal shopping, they won't come out looking at all alike. And if she wants her colors and patterns all mixed up, that's even better, picking through their sweaters, knits and skirts.
Free People has three wholesale showrooms - in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. The sales team is in love with the Free People customer, and constantly searches for accounts who believe in their aesthetic and want them to be part of their lives. Today the line sells in over 1000 specialty stores worldwide.

Mom Style: 10 Flattering Spring Dresses Perfect For Every Style, Shape and BudgetCasi Densmore-Koon
Today was the first time on the east coast, once the rain stopped, that a tease of Spring was upon us. I didn't have to wear a jacket! This was super exciting, but it reminded me that I haven't done much shopping for the warm months ahead. Last year at this time, I was buying maternity clothes, so I am happy to be back in the the non-preggers section of the store and I'm excited to stock-up and add to my wardrobe now that I am not pregnant.
For me, during the Spring, the easiest way to look easily put together in an instant is with a dress. You can dress it up, dress it down, add fun accessories – a belt, statement necklace – you can make the look yours as you head off to the playground. When you throw on a dress, you instantly looked polished and well put together. And honestly, I think it is easier to throw on a dress than squeeze into your skinnies. Right? I am all about the perfect dress!
I've narrowed down my favorite choices that will flatter any shape, style and budget!
Spring Mom Style 1 of 11Browse through 10 adorable, mom-approved spring dresses for every style, shape and budget.
Super-Trendy Sheath 2 of 11Such a great pop of color to add to your wardrobe. A sheath dress is a classic silhoutte and this colorblock style is great for Spring.
Purchase this Citrus Grove Coral Color Block Shirt Dress from Lulus for $40
Slim Down 3 of 11A line down the middle is super-slimming for your mom curves. Color block is super-trendy for Spring too!

CLEVELAND -- Channel 3 investigated why Cuyahoga Community College has 15 vice-presidents at the same time, part-time faculty is increasing.
Across the country according to national stats, administrators have increased about 60 percent in less than 20 years. When talking about taxpayer dollars and increasing tuition, is that the best use of resources?
"It is a question of resources, and how are we best serving students to be successful," says April Freeley, co-chair of Ohio Part-Time Faculty Association.
Freeley also points out that administrators are outpacing tenured faculty now, with many colleges going to part-time faculty. Part- time faculty do not receive benefits. We also noticed that Tri-C has 15 vice presidents and over 20 executive directors.
Cuyahoga Community College released this statement to Channel 3 News:
"While some educational institutions may assign different titles to similar positions, we believe "vice president" provides ease of understanding and comparability to other institutions regionally and nationally. Each of our vice presidents has a clearly defined role that is vitally important to the College and to serving our mission of providing high-quality, accessible and affordable educational opportunities and services."

DEXTER The Board of Trustees agreed Tuesday to sell the village municipal building for $340,000 to the Brownville Joint Fire District, enabling the Dexter Volunteer Fire Department to remain there.
The sale also will allow the village to proceed with its plan to build its new office building on property it owns on Liberty Street, Mayor James R. Eves said. The village hopes to break ground on the project in the spring so that employees can move in next fall.
The project is expected to cost in the range of $500,000 to $600,000.
The two parties started negotiating the sale in the spring, and for a time, the village considered selling the building to an outside party. The districts original bid of $187,000 for the building in March was rejected.
The building is assessed by Jefferson County at $538,000, Mr. Eves said, and the village needed to sell it for enough to finance the construction of its new office building. Eventually, the board was willing to negotiate the price down with the fire district.
We werent looking for a huge profit, but a fair market value, Mr. Eves said. The fire district is giving us what we feel is a fair and equitable price.
William K. Archer, chairman of the joint fire districts board, said the board now will decide how space in the building will be managed. Its community room will continue to be available for residents.
We would have liked to pay less for the building, but were pleased the process is completed, Mr. Archer said. The fire district will monitor the communitys use of the building, and well need to provide space for a new firetruck that will be purchased.
The village leases the buildings five truck bays for $1 a year to the Dexter Fire Department, which pays for its own utilities. The department has about 30 volunteers.
The villages planned 3,500-square-foot building will include four offices, an archive room, a multipurpose room and a basement.

Comments about Outdoor Research Ferrosi Pants (Men's):
I use these as everyday pants. While the material may be thin, it doesn't show any sign of tearing or ripping apart. The sizing on these is the trick. I'm 6'3", 190 lbs, I purchased a size 34 and they fit EXACTLY; typically I'd buy a 32. The stretch in the pants gives plenty of comfort, so the next size up is usually perfect. The legs have a slim fit, not skin-tight, but it isn't quite baggy. There's elastic at the ankles to tighten it up if the need arises, and is hidden in a way that doesn't show unless you know it's there.

My kid is in 5th std.When I checked his notebooks, they were all red marked showing that he is unable to understand the concepts well and I realized that even teachers are not making much effort to educate children. I was so puzzled with how to make my child understand the concepts in more detail. Extramarks was suggested by my neighbour. Being unaware about the company i decided to go through website and I decided to buy the product. I was amazed to see my child is learning happily on Tablet and now he prepares for the topic before it is taught in school.
Being a working woman there is always a shortage of time and to make my 4 year kid learn poems becomes easy with Extramarks as animation and voice-overs are so engaging for my child.
I enjoy studying from this website as the online content is very helpful and interactive.
I am just near to the boards and I don't have to roam around the internet searching for previous year papers and sample questions. This site provided me plenty of questions which cleared my doubts about the concept.
For this FA II exam, I taught my child from Extramarks and his scores are above my expectations. Thank You Extramarks for your support.
Extramarks helps me to learn chapters very easily and helps me to know better by virtual labs and videos.
