Truly purifying.
As part of my most recent detoxification, I took 2-4 drops of Aura Cacia White Thyme Essential Oil in warmed milk or juice at night as well as a few drops in my tincture spray and had noticeable softness and even tone in skin within just a few days.
Good price, good quality, speedy service. this product compares very favourably with other essential oils I buy from the US. Very conscious about purity and quality, therefore I do a lot of research before ordering.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

Easter Sunrise Service
Directly across the street from me is almost an exact duplica of Tara. It sits on 16 acres of land high on a hill overlooking the city of Knoxville. No matter which way you look, you can see the Tennessee river as we live on a penisula. Then you look in the other direction and you can see the Smoky Mountains and Mt. LeConte. We have a neighborhood Easter Sunrise Service there each Easter and it is attended by no more than 200 people. I always take my binoculars and while I enjoy the music by the BagPipe group, other music by local neighbors, the message by the local minister and then I have the goodie table which is packed of neighborhood goodies that is beyound belief. Everything appears to be homemade. Great coffee's, rolls, breakfast stuff and particularly, my Tennessee bisquits which are brown, crispy, fluffy, light, tasty and if you don't mind me saying so, they are the best thing there as I also provide real butter, apple butter, strawberry freezer jam (ummmmmm
and Florida orange marmalade.
Best religous event that I attend. Hope yours is as well.
Happy Easter from the Sundancer7 from East, TN

It sounds like a nice way to start the day ! Easter has always been a very low-key holiday in our family, and now with the kids all out on their own, Janet is working a full shift at the hospital, so I will try to make Spring look better here. The in-laws are doing a couple of turkey's in their fryer so we will head over there in the evening for a pot-luck centered on fried bird. These folks know how to make a pot-luck something worth attending, kind of like the ladies efforts you described. Our contribution will be Angel Food Cake chunks mixed with strawberry jello and fresh strawberries...With some sweetened Whipped Cream folded in to make the whole thing one big gooey mess that looks like strawberry ripple ice cream...but tastes pretty darn good. Yep we are welcome as long as we bring a LARGE dessert!
I love to share in these types of dinner's
...where the contributer's pride themselves in friendly competition for the most raves or extra-good results. Unfortuneately only a couple of the younger generation of couples make that kind of effort...Instead they pick up something at the Kroger Deli and let us pry the plastic lid off of it at the table.
Lucky for us two of the daughter's in-law have caught the spirit of the event and have been making that extra effort to see that whatever they bring deserves our attention. Maybe we can get that attitude to spread to the rest of the tribe. The concept of 'Convenience Food' has gone too far when it invades this area !!

Just thought I would report on the Easter Sunrise event I attended this morning across the street.
Great Bagpipe group. Full dress kilts, etc. They certainly looked the part and of course, they played Amazing Grace.
Sun hit the top of the hill right on schedule and at 7:00AM, it was staring us in the face and warming all of us that had a slight chill.
There were two tables of local neighborhood food and one table of coffee, fruit juice and other liquids. I enjoyed my own crispy brown, fluffy, tasty bisquits, slihgtly slated local butter, and fresh freezer jam. Umm, oh so good! I also sneaked in some sausage balls and a slice of custard strawberry cake.
Enjoy this beautiful day. Unfortunately, I gotta drive to Indy

Nice, clean job. What are you going to do the dart launchers out of?
I was thinking about maybe getting some bobamaker launchers, then i can finish the rest of the work on these before i put some paint down on them
, he seem to have some nice sets at an affordable price & he's only across the water from Ireland so shipping is not too much.
I meant to ask about the mounts for the knee dart launchers
same as the rest of the knees ,PVC and some bond'o/ body filler
very sturdy material , very hard to break but a little on the heavy side, not going to be a problem for me
as this fett is planned for a display piece
looking good!
Attachment 64250 Attachment 64251 Attachment 64252 Attachment 64253 got some more work done on these boys today
,can't wait to get them done , patience, patience!!!!
well done beans, i hasd seen something on using pvc, pvc is my friend as my chest armour is pvc, good to the knee's that is one of my next things.
You're welcome RobaFett and thanks. I'll be doing an update as soon as i get my dart launchers. Can anyone recommend a good seller of aluminum dart launchers? what price would i be paying for a got accurate set?
Attachment 64500 Attachment 64501 Attachment 64502 Attachment 64503
bit more work done , some clean up, some more coats of primer etc etc....
Attachment 65370 Attachment 65371 Attachment 65372 Attachment 65373
Done a little test fit today:D
Attachment 65791 finished these today, let me know what you guys think of them and the paint job
i think the Bobamaker launchers suit them pretty good
It looks excellent and I like it! You did a great job!
awsome work man, nice skills
Thanks guys, i was a little doubtful about the paint job, i thought i over did it on the carbon scorching on the right knee, i've since buffed some
of it out and it looks a bit better.
Nice knee darts! May I ask where you got them from?
Yeah sure ,they are from bobamaker. bobamaker

Crotchet Castle HTML version
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. Is that all, gentlemen?
THE COMMISSIONERS. That is all, sir; and we wish you a good morning.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. A very good morning to you, gentlemen.
"What in the name of all that is wonderful, Mr. Bluenose," said the Reverend
Doctor Folliott, as he walked out of the inn, "what in the name of all that is
wonderful, can those fellows mean? They have come here in a chaise and four,
to make a fuss about a pound per annum, which, after all, they leave as it was: I
wonder who pays them for their trouble, and how much."
MR. APPLETWIG. The public pay for it, sir. It is a job of the learned friend whom
you admire so much. It makes away with public money in salaries, and private
money in lawsuits, and does no particle of good to any living soul.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. Ay, ay, Mr. Appletwig; that is just the sort of public service
to be looked for from the learned friend. Oh, the learned friend! the learned
friend! He is the evil genius of everything that falls in his way.
The Reverend Doctor walked off to Crotchet Castle, to narrate his
misadventures, and exhale his budget of grievances on Mr. Mac Quedy, whom
he considered a ringleader of the march of mind.

Grateful Dead
Greatest Stories Ever Told - "Ripple"
By David Dodd
Is it possible that "Ripple" might be in every Deadhead's top five favorite Dead songs list? It is definitely on mine, when push comes to shove.
Garcia was quoted once, when talking about "American Beauty," as saying something approximating: "Yep—every song on that album is a winner." Side two (and I will always think of albums as having two sides) starts with "Ripple." Side one starts with "Box of Rain." What a nice pair of opening songs for album sides those two are!
Robert Hunter wrote the lyric for "Ripple" in London in 1970—a prolific period for him. The Dead first performed it in an acoustic set at the Fillmore West on August 19, 1970, along with first performances of "Brokedown Palace," " Operator," and "Truckin'." (Yes, "Truckin'" was played in the acoustic set.) Following an initial period of not too frequent performances in 1970 and 1971, "Ripple" disappeared from shows until the shows in 1980 commencing at the Warfield on September 25, and continuing for a run of 25 shows, during which it was played every show at the conclusion of the first (acoustic) set. After that, it was only played twice more in performance by the Dead, with the final "Ripple" played at the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland, on September 3, 1988. "Ripple" closed the show, and was played electric for the first time since 1971. An interesting performance history, no?
After all these years of thinking about the song, even now, when I put my mind to it, new things surface. I realized, just now, that despite the song's American folk song quality, I think of it as something from the Far East. Something inherently Asian, and I think that's because of a couple of things. Early on, I read somewhere a description of "Ripple" as having a gentle, Taoist bent. And then there's the fact that the chorus is a haiku. Vaguely Buddhist / Asian imagery is conjured by Hunter in a number of his early songs, especially. Think of "China Cat Sunflower," with its copperdome bodhi. That simple reference to Taoism long ago sent me looking for information about the Tao, and it has proven to be a very rich vein indeed. Same with haiku—I have written dozens of haiku over the years, and without "Ripple," my experience with the form might have remained at the third-grade level.
But the poetic allusions in the song are not entirely from the East. Perhaps the primary source for the song comes from the 23rd Psalm, with its reference to "still water," and to a cup that may be full or empty. The deceptively simple language of the song leads us to contemplate sources beyond our immediate knowing—whether human or "not made by the hands of men"—as well as the interplay of life and death. This song has comforted me through the death of both my parents, with its lines about the road between dawn and dark being no simple highway. Each of us has our individual path, for our steps alone. That might seem like a frightening thought, but I find the universality of it a comfort: we're all in the same boat.
There are lessons about leadership in this song that I wish everyone who aspires to that role would take to heart: "You who choose to lead must follow, and if you fall, you fall alone."
I had the honor and pleasure of being in the backing chorus for the First Fusion concerts Bob Weir collaborated on with the Marin Symphony Orchestra a couple of years ago, and got to sing "Ripple" with him in a small group as part of the encore set, followed by "Attics of My Life." I love to play the melody and changes on the piano, and on banjo. It's part of my small repertoire of songs I think I could play in my sleep.
What place has "Ripple" had in your life? Has it helped you through anything? Have you sung it to your children as a lullaby? Have you played it around a campfire? These are just a few ways the song has lived in my life.
There are mysteries in the song. I've had emails from many people over the years, proposing ideas about the ripple of the title—where does it come from? How can a song be played on a harp without strings? (And I don't think it was actually a harmonica…) What is the fountain? Who made it? (A girlfriend once joked with me that clearly, since it wasn't made by the hands of men, it must have been made by women.)
Your thoughts? Feel free to offer some interpretative speculation! It doesn't matter if your thoughts are broken—let there be stories to fill the air!
upon my spiritual journey, Ripple has had a very special place. As a devout Christian the "ripple" in the still water is caused by a fish for me..and to state the obvious...the fish is an international symbol of Jesus Christ. An earlier commenter mentioned the Tao (or The Way) what a great observation. The poster who mentioned the 23rd Psalm references gets a hug and a song from me whenever weshall meet ...either on the street or at His feet. For me, Christ is The LIght, The Life and The way..... home....YES I did find someone to follow...and it has been a superior way to lead.
Notice how the story teller speaks,,,,sheds light....but leaves you,,,the listener to make the choice.

Now this may well strike people here as sacrilege, but I have occasionally found myself singing the lyrics to 'Ripple' to the tune of 'Wayfaring Stranger'.
The verses fit nicely, but I had to twiddle a bit with the chorus, which I sing after each verse, to make it fit, thus:
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Ripple in still water
When there is no wind to blow
I'm not sure how or why I first thought of matching the lyrics with the music, it wasn't a conscious thing, but, having done it, I rather like it. Have a try, and see what you make of it.
i got married to it
i names my dog after it
words to live by!
**I have posted this in the GL1 thread, but feel it may also have some relevance in David's blog.**
I have been extremely busy lately, moving my stuff into a new-old place. New in that I'm leaving my current abode, yet old in that it is the house I grew up in. It's a homecoming of sorts, tempered with a bittersweet sense of coming full circle. So much to do! Stuff is everywhere, I've already made a million trips, my arms feel like they're gonna fall off, and I'm still not done- I am truly amazed at the vast amount of dusty crap I have accumulated in just 20+ years! I swear, the next time I move it will be to the cemetery down the street!
Because of my hectic schedule, I haven't had a chance to listen to all of GarciaLive1. Sunday morning proved to be the perfect opportunity to play catch up. So, armed with my one hitter and a nice hot cup of coffee, I went straight to disc 3 and cherry picked the two songs with Robert Hunter.
And I could not stop smiling- not just at his wonderful performance, but also in marvel of the sheer beauty and genius that is Robert Hunter. God bless you, sir- I feel as if I owe you a debt of gratitude- I sincerely hope that someday that I may be able to do something for you, to repay you for the many kind favors you have bestowed upon me- especially with all those wonderful lyrics to that sweet music that keeps my sanity intact (somewhat), and helps guide me on this journey of life.
During the mid to late eighties there was a popular street performer in harvard square, luke, who used to play ripple. It always got everyone dancing. My brother and his friends who were "new wave" always loved it and referred to it as the dancing hippie tune. Some things are universal. Does anyone out there remember luke?
LOVE that story about your mom, sailbystars!
Ah yes, the photo has been removed--maybe something more apt will be located and posted. Meanwhile, here's the URL for a cool photo showing the original single "Ripple." http://www.dead.net/sites/default/files/images/197011xx_0418.jpg
Nice anecdote, sailbystars--and yes--it does seem like Ripple is a good one for introducing people to the band. I don't think I would ever play Barbed Wire Whipping Party for anyone, much less a newbie. Only at an academic conference...where I did, in fact, give a paper on that particular piece of madness.
...and we will always hold it near as if it were our own.
Recently, my sister had twins and I quickly found out some Dead songs make great lullabies. I often play Ripple, Bird Song, & It must have been the roses for them. The words are colorful and the melody so sweet, they just eat it up.
Why do I have no idea what picture you are talking about?
Ripple is one of the first songs I ever learned to play on guitar 16 years ago. To me, it defines the essence of the band. Simple chords-moving lyrics-very pure music and very accessible. A total campfire tune. Cheers. Jay

Andy opened up his first press conference since returning to the Eagles by stating, for the record, that he can't talk about his kids' problems and asking the reporters not to ask him about those issues. Naturally, the entire press conference was used up by reporters peppering him with questions about his family.
When they finally got around to asking Reid football questions, he said he was happy with the moves the team had made in his absence. He didn't go into much detail. He did say he stayed up on personnel decisions while he was out, watching game film at home, and stayed in touch with Tom Heckert, Joe Banner et al.
For the record: Andy wishes nothing but the best for Donte Stallworth, and Kevin Curtis should "take another step forward in this (the Eagles) offense."
One reporter asked him if he felt guilty because he spends so much time at his job that he didn't have enough time for his kids. Classy, classy question. OK, I've had enough. Welcome back Andy, now it's time to get to work.
