How to Make Essential Rose Geranium Oil
Rose geraniums, or pelargonium graveolens, are a member of the geranium family. They feature spiky leaves, pink flowers with purple markings and a sweet, lemony scent. Rose geranium oil is commonly used as a topical oil to treat the soreness of breastfeeding and to heal skin problems, and is often taken internally in the belief that it helps to metabolize fats. No studies have verified these claims, so take care when using rose geranium essential oils. Making essential oils at home is the best way to ensure the quality and purity of your rose geranium essential oil.
Step 1
Cut up enough rose geranium flowers, leaves and stems to fill a clean jar about one-third to half full. The measurements in this process do not have to be exact. Make sure you include a lot of leaves, because that is where rose geraniums contain the most oil.
Step 2
Stir the leaves, flowers and stems around with a wooden spoon for a few seconds to help release the oils. Don't mash them up, just press them lightly against the bottom of the jar and stir them gently.
Step 3
Pour enough almond, jojoba or olive oil over the crushed rose geranium stems, flowers and leaves to cover them completely. Stir them again with your wooden spoon. Almond oil has a very sweet scent of its own, so if you want the oil to smell more purely of the lemony rose geranium, use unscented jojoba oil. If you choose olive oil, use a very light kind rather then the more robust sort used for dipping and salad dressings.
Step 4
Place the lid on the jar and tighten it to keep any air from getting in. It doesn't have to be perfectly airtight, just closed securely.
Step 5
Set the jar outdoors in the sun or in a sunny indoor spot and let it sit for a minimum of 48 hours. Give the jar a gentle swirl every few hours.
Step 6
Place a piece of fine cheesecloth over a funnel and slowly pour your oil through it and into a cup or glass. Discard the leaves, stems and flowers. For stronger essential oil, pour the oil back into the clean glass jar and add fresh rose geranium flowers, leaves and stems. Let it sit for another 48 hours.
Step 7
Strain the oil through cheesecloth and into tinted glass bottles once you feel that your essential oil is strong enough. Make sure that no bits of the rose geranium plant matter are in the oil, because they can decompose and ruin your essential oil. You may have to strain it more than once to be certain.
Step 8
Close the tinted glass bottles with tight-fitting stoppers. Label them with the ingredients and the date you made the rose geranium essential oil. It will lose potency after six months, so it is important to know exactly when it was first infused.

Customer Reviews
- Bissell Heavy Traffic Carpet Foam
I had previously bought the Bissell rug stick which came with a small tin of the Bissell heavy duty foam. I have a small dog so I was sceptical at first that this would work but I thought I would give it a try. I was so impressed with how well it cleaned my carpets and how easy the Bissell rug stick was to use I bought a larger tin. After doing my carpets again I will make sure I always have a spare tin of the Bissell heavy traffic foam in my cupboard. If I could give it a rating it would definitely get a five star.

A Kununurra-based rum distiller has earned the break of a lifetime with his hand-made spirit being selected by the world's best restaurant for a sell-out, 10-week Sydney pop-up season.
Owner of the Kimberley-based Hoochery, American-born Spike Dessert III (the third), 71, said he was thrilled for his team, though he cheerfully admitted to not being much of a food connoisseur or to know much about global restaurants.
"Back here, we pretty much enjoy our rum with fish and chips or burritos," he said from Kununurra.
Mr Dessert's Ord River Rum will be on the beverage list when Noma opens in Sydney on Australia Day.
The 5000-seat (season), $500-a-plate restaurant sold out online in 90 seconds. It will open on Tuesday at its inner city site on the Sydney harbor at the freshly redeveloped Barangaroo precinct.
Noma is a two Michelin star restaurant that normally serves global foodies from its Copenhagen location under the vision of chef René Redzepi , credited with the rise of "New Nordic cuisine".
Noma topped Restaurant magazine's coveted World's Best Restaurant list four times between 2010- 2014.
Chef Redzepi made TIME magazine's 2012 list of the 100 most influential people on the planet and was named International Chef of the Year in 2008.
"We try to make food with the ingredients we have around us. We work with local farmers, we gather local ingredients that nature provides – and we exploit seasonal ingredients to the limit," Redzepi told Denmark's official website.
Back in the Kimberley, Mr Dessert admitted it was a great honour.
"We're pretty excited to get chosen and to see what comes from the opportunity," he said.
His unusual, food-sounding surname has French-Canadian roots that extend all the way down to New Orleans - but he doesn't think there were any moonshiners in the family that could account for his skill with distilling.
Mr Dessert pointed out the awards his rum has scored since it opened back in 1999.
Hoochery rum won back-to-back gold medals at the Melbourne Royal Show for the best Australian rum and the 2015 London Wine and Spirit Challenge.
"We're going for three in a row in Melbourne. I only like gold now – they don't count unless they're a grand slam.
"We say we are the oldest, continuously operating, legal still in Australia," said the father-of-four and grandfather of 11.
"There were plenty of other stills that stopped before us and have now started again - and a few more that operated illegally."
Mr Dessert came to Australia in 1972 to "get away from paying taxes" he said light-heartedly and this third generation farmer settled in his Ord River location that was similar to his south-eastern Californian birthplace.
He now grows onions, pumpkin, green crops, seed and sugar cane – for the rum - on his 200 hectares.
The idea for a distillery came about during a trip over east when he visited a winery.
"It got me thinking; farmers are always being encouraged to diversify. Wine wasn't really an option, but a distillery was a real possibility," he said.
Bureaucratic challenges presented by customs and the Australian Tax Office were his biggest hurdles, but eventually Hoochery was opened.
The distillery was built by hand in an old shed and Mr Dessert's team use their home-grown sugar cane with molasses imported from Queensland combined with wet season rainwater.
"We age it in old wine casks and produce a couple of blends – could be 10 and 12 year-old rums blended, say, with a two year-old," he said.
"I'm the official taster – though the team and the whole family has a say."
Hoochery now gets some 20,000 visitors a year who enjoy its showroom modelled on a traditional, country-style saloon bar, complete with old piano and chandeliers.
Mr Dessert is now hoping the Noma opportunity might further put his rum on the map.
"Distribution is the hardest part of this job. You're playing with the big boys and they don't give up market share easily," he said.
Mr Dessert, can point to one achievement the others might find hard to match.
He can officially call himself the owner of the most-expensive drive-through bottle shop in the country.
"I got a call from a guy who wanted a carton of rum brought to the airport. I got there as a Lear Jet landed," he said.
"The pilot kind of half leaned out of the door and I handed it to him. He closed up and took off. I never did find out who it was for, but the controller told me they had paid full rate for the landing and take-off."

Comic Book Legends Revealed #365
Welcome to the three hundredth and sixty-fifth in a series of examinations of comic book legends and whether they are true or false. Today, in honor of the opening of the Avengers this weekend, it is an ALL-AVENGERS EDITION! Discover the Avengers issue that was edited at the last minute because of a possibly ribald sequence in the original story, learn whether Stan Lee wrote the Captain America theme song and marvel at how the Comics Code changed Captain America's origin!
Click here for an archive of the previous three hundred and sixty-four.
Let's begin!
COMIC LEGEND: An issue of Avengers West Coast was edited at the last moment because of a scene that could be interpreted as one character performing oral sex on another.
STATUS: True
During John Byrne's run on Avengers West Coast, he had the Scarlet Witch go through a bit of a bad time.
First, her husband, the Vision, was taken apart from the government and now had no emotional bond to her anymore…
Next, even more devastatingly, she discovered that her two children with the Vision were actually created by her power and did not actually exist…
She was in such bad shape that it is unsurprising that she had a mental breakdown
and became a bit of a villain for a time…
In her mentally unbalanced state, she decided to torment Wonder Man (who was in love with her but she did return the sentiment)…
Not cool, Wanda, NOT COOL!
Now, that is how the issues appeared when they were PRINTED, but when they were drawn it was a different state of affairs all together.
I'll let Len Kamniski, who was Assistant Editor on the book (with Howard Mackie as the editor), explain the situation…
During this period John's working method was to dispense with plots, scripts and etc., and just go straight to drawing the story. Obviously this saved precious time in terms of meeting production deadlines. John would send in the completed book, inked (when he inked himself, of course) [This issue was inked by Paul Ryan – BC] and lettered (his computer printed balloons already pasted down).
Saved a boatload of time, that. We managed to get the completed book into production in the nick of time every month, instead of bowel-shrivelingly late like most other stuff. And you have to give John his due, having the confidence to just charge ahead, plotting, drawing and dialoging from panel to panel.
Cut to: the day the book Must go the printer. It arrives first thing in the morning from the colorist. Editor Howard Mackie quickly reads through it, declares it good, drops it on my desk to proofread, after which I'm to finesse it through Production and have Mark Gruenwald sign it out. I don't recall if Tom DeFalco was out that day, which technically was the only time the process was allowed to skip him, or if was one of the times you waited for Tom to go to lunch or something, then take to Mark, plead screaming lateness (usually true anyway), and get him to autograph the release forms WITHOUT READING the book.
Everything up till that last bit was Standard Operating Procedure in Editorial. But Mark NEVER skipped the final read-through; even when Tom was IN, Mark'd read it first, then pass it to Tom. Yeah, some of it was his continuity cop fixation, but there were plenty of times he'd catch a typo that got through and do the corrections himself with a pen and whiteout (this sort of thing was SIMPLY NOT DONE by editors; no matter how late the book might be, corrections were done by production (unless the Assistant Editor had the skills; Assistant Editors who failed to HIDE any art, lettering, or coloring abilities never got to leave the building, and were given water at LEAST once a week). But that was Mark…
ANYWAY, Mark virtually never signed out a book without reading it, and on those occasions ONLY for guys who belonged to the Former Assistant Editors to Mark Gruenwald Club. I believe there were two. Howard was one of them. (I sorta got to be an honorary member later on, thanks to Mark and I hitting it off when I got Managing Editor status on QUASAR).
To sum up: The editor has read the book and passed it. The acting EIC is ready to rubber-stamp it sight unseen. From there, straight to the printer.
They say it's the things you don't do that you later regret, and usually I agree with that. In this case, I have to confess that there are times I think back and REALLY hate myself for what I did next.
I started proofreading. Screeched to a rubber-shredding halt on page 7, Slammed it into reverse and re-read page 6 three times before I was sure there was more going on there than just my depraved imagination. Held the page up and said, "Uh, Howard… could you read this page again and tell me if it's me, or… um…"
Howard takes the page. I see his eyes scan it quickly… then start over, slower this time. I note the veins in his forehead throbbing, his eyesockets beginning to smolder, the smell of burning beard hair that always preceded his transformation into THE SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE… "Must… TALK to John… only one chance to –" he gasped.
Looking over the page, several of my brain cells collided and produced something resembling ideas. "Y'know," I said, "this might not be that hard to fix…" Yes, the SHOCKING REVELATION: the hidden hand behind the "corrections" was, in fact, ME.
Of course, John didn't exactly make it THAT hard a job.
Len tells me he has the corrected pages in his possession somewhere, but he could not find them, so he instead used Photoshop to give me a rough idea of what the original page looked like. Here is Len's Photoshop of the previously shown page from Avengers West Coast #56, along with his notes on the page:
Okay, here's a quick and dirty recreation of the original WCA page in question. Since I'd spend years more noodling with it in pshop if I let myself, it's pretty rough, thus additional comments:
Panels 4 and 5: No sparkly hex effect from Wanda's hands. No gouging of Wonder Man's flesh. No tearing of his shirt, either; fingers might have been repositioned slightly, I don't exactly recall. But the original art had Wanda simply trailing her hand down his chest… and beyond.
Panels 6 and 7: No top of Wanda's head visible. Wonder Man's balloons (give or take a minor stylistic difference) were as I've redone them. I'd bet money the revised ones that saw print were done by Chris Eliopoulos, who was on staff back then.
Now do note that in the original version, Byrne leaves it up to the reader's imagination what actually happens, just like in the published pages. It is just more heavily implied that what is possibly happening is that Wanda is performing oral sex on Wonder Man.
In any event, now that the change was made, Len continues his story:
Book fixed. Goes to printer. Ends up funny story, no hard feelings, everybody laughs. Howard and John remained pals. As it turned out, some people got the wrong idea anyway… we got outraged, horrified letters from folks that thought what was happening on the page was Wanda CASTRATING Simon. Some days it just doesn't pay to chew your way through the leather straps…
Thanks so much for the amazing foray into Avengers history, Len! Everyone go friend Len on Facebook!
Len also notes that while the incident turned out to not be a big deal in and of itself, it might have drawn extra attention from editorial to the book which could have played a part in the eventual conflict between Byrne and DeFalco which saw Byrne quit the title soon after the above issue came out (I did an old Comic Book Legends Revealed installment on what Byrne had planned for the title had he stayed. You can check it out here).
Check out some Sports Legends Revealed, like:
Did a pitcher allow a former teammate to get a hit to get his average over .300 for the season?
Was the Olympic Torch Relay invented by the Nazis?
On the next page, did Stan Lee really write the lyrics to Captain America's cartoon series (the one that went "When Captain America throws his mighty shield…")?
COMIC LEGEND: Stan Lee wrote the lyrics to the 1966 Marvel Super Heroes TV series, including most famously "When Captain America throws his mighty shield"…
STATUS: False
Marvel Super Heroes was a cartoon series produced by the short-lived animation studio, Grantray-Lawrence Animation. It featured "animated" versions of five of Marvel's heroes – Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor and Namor. The animation mostly involved just directly copying the art from Marvel comic books with crude animation (typically just the lips moving, but occasionally a leg or an arm, as needed).
There were seven minute adaptations of Marvel comics and three seven-minute adaptations of a specific hero would air as an episode, with Cap on Mondays, Hulk on Tuesdays, Iron Man on Wednesdays, Thor on Thursdays and Namor on Fridays.
The Captain America episodes also adapted Avengers issues, as well as Cap stories.
The short-lived series (it ran from September to December in 1966) is perhaps best known for its memorable theme songs, unique to each hero. Here are the theme songs….
Iron Man…
and, most famously, Captain America, with the classic lyrics "When Captain America throws his mighty shield, all those who chose to oppose his mighty shield must yield"…
Well, speaking of that theme song, my buddy Adam P. Knave wrote me a few years back to ask:
I've been hearing Stan Lee wrote all the old theme songs for the 60s Marvel cartoons, you know "When Captain America throws his mighty shield" and the Thor one and Iron Man and so on. But I haven't been able to find a credit for them, and I just wonder if it's TRUE.
This is a legend that has been making the rounds for some time, and in 2004, in an article for the Jack Kirby Collecter #41, Adam McGovern did a feature on Marvel Super Heroes, including interviewing Robert Lawrence (the Lawrence part of Grantray-Lawrence Animation) along with Arlen Schumer. They asked Lawrence if Stan Lee wrote the lyrics to the theme song and he said no, he did not (Lee did do work on the series, but just dialogue and the like). However, it is fair to note that Lawrence did not know for sure who DID write the lyrics, as he recalled that Paul Francis Webster wrote the lyrics to the theme songs. Webster wrote the theme song to the Spider-Man theme song, that is true, but there is no official record of him writing the lyrics to the other series, and it is very possible that Lawrence (who passed away soon after the interview saw print) was conflating Webster's Spider-Man work with the other series.
However, McGovern then interviewed Stan Lee about the series, and he replied, "I wish I could claim to have written [the theme song] lyrics because I think they're brilliant, but alas, I didn't."
While Stan's memory is obviously not the greatest, this is the sort of thing I think he'd remember and his answer sure seemed to be definitive (rather than "I'm pretty sure I didn't write them), so I'm willing to go with a false here.
Thanks to Adam for the question and thanks to Adam McGovern, Arlen Schumer, the late Bob Lawrence and the legendary Stan Lee for the information!
Check out some Sports Legends Revealed, like:
Was a dead player taken in the CFL Draft in back-to-back years?
Were the Harlem Globetrotters really founded in Chicago?
On the next page, learn how the Comics Code led to a change in Captain America's origin!
COMIC LEGEND: Captain America's origin was changed because of the Comics Code.
STATUS: I'm Going with True
A couple of years ago, I did a Comic Book Legends Revealed installment on how Two-Face had his original origin bowdlerized during the Silver Age due to the Comics Code (you can read about it here).
As it turns out, a certain patriotic superhero joined Two-Face in the ranks of the bowdlerized superhero origin.
Here's the original origin from the first issue of Captain America Comics in 1940 (by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby)…
Over a decade later, though, the Comics Code Authority was established.
While drug use was actually not specifically codified in the Code, the part of the Code that stated "All elements or techniques not specifically mentioned herein, but which are contrary to the spirit and intent of the code, and are considered violations of good taste or decency" was used to eliminate stuff like using a needle to inject a person so when Captain America's origin was retold in 1964's Tales of Suspense #63 by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Frank Giacoia, gone was the needle and in was an oral serum…
Nearly five years later, in Captain America #109 (by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Syd Shores), they cleverly got around the injection scene by having it already happen.
This origin introduced the "Vita-Ray" part of the origin…
This origin is also the first time that Cap actually KILLS the assassin instead of the bad guy accidentally killing himself.
Not even in the 1940s origin (an era that tended not to shy from violence) had Cap do that.
In Captain America #255, John Byrne, Roger Stern and Joe Rubinstein put all of the origins together to form what I believe is still the "official" take on the origin…
What a great issue by Byrne, Stern and Rubinstein.

Gold can be purchased around the world in a wide range of sizes or denominations, from fractions of a gram up to large bars of several hundred ounces. There are many reasons to consider owning gold in smaller sizes.
As we explain in our Beyond Financial Fitness materials, individuals are much more likely to accomplish something over the long term when they put systems in place to make things automatic, simple, and easy.
This is especially true with putting money to productive long-term use. Dollar Cost Averaging is a term that describes continually investing on a regular basis over an extended period of time. It turns good intentions into long term habits.
Dollar Cost Averaging also allows the investor to largely disconnect from the daily fluctuations of market prices of the assets they're buying, eliminating guesswork and market timing concerns. Dollar Cost Average investors don't have to freak out if the price drops, or get overly exuberant if it goes up. After all, prices move all the time (and gold is no different). By buying consistently over time, one catches prices at highs and lows, but over time, gets to take advantage of the overall long term trend of the market.
For these reasons we offer the Financial Fitness Bullion Reserve Gold Accumulation program. Simply enroll and indicate the number of gold gram cards you'd like to regularly receive and we'll ship them to you each month. That's it! You can then rest easy knowing you've got certified physical gold accumulating more and more over time.
We are so excited to find a reliable supplier to help diversify our portfolio with Gold Bullion at a great price. The 1 gram packaging and the 99.99 certification not only makes me feel better about the purchase, but also gives me the ability to commoditize at any time. My wife and I look forward to a long relationship with the Financial Fitness products through the Gold Bullion accumulation program and plan to consistently purchase this asset.
Douglas Stroh
We love the Financial Fitness Bullion Reserve Program! It is a simple, easy, convenient way to accumulate Gold Bullion from a reliable, trusted source. Buying a small amount each month not only averages our cost, but keeps it affordable, while building up our nest egg.
Rick and Kate Amdahl
My family and I have been investing in precious metals for the past several years but it's always been done at my inconvenience. Financial Fitness provides convenience plus the opportunity to take advantage of dollar-cost-averaging by allowing me to make purchases on a consistent, monthly basis. Additionally, the size, spot price and commissions are right: 1g gold bars are lighter yet more valuable than 1oz silver rounds, but the investment is still small enough to make them affordable to everyone. I took my initial Financial Fitness Bullion gold investment to my traditional precious metals dealer simply for 3rd party validation. You should've seen the dealer's eyes light up when he saw the packaging. He was really impressed that Financial Fitness created a way to provide 1g gold bars as a product. Most households simply can't afford to buy 10g (or more) on a monthly basis. Additionally, the 1g bar is a convenient size to sell when the time arises. We also checked purity and the attached photo says it all: 99.9+% pure gold!
Michael Hartmann
I'm VERY excited about the Gold Bullion Reserve simply because of everything going on in the world of banking right now; it's so awesome to be able to own a little bit of security, and accumulate even more over time. The ability to purchase great quality, physical gold and have it in your possession for a very low commission fee is going to make a difference to a lot of people who wouldn't know how to go about starting the accumulation of precious metals. Most places that sell gold bullion are not selling it in smaller amounts that the average person can afford to purchase. So, I believe this option through Financial Fitness is going to bolster financial security for those who take advantage of this awesome commodity!!
Joe Burdick
We've purchased gold before and are excited about the ease of purchase through Financial Fitness. The monthly accumulation program makes 'paying yourself first' very convenient!
Matt and Michelle Mielke
The integrity of the Financial Fitness products has always impressed me so I knew that the Financial Fitness Bullion Reserve Program would be awesome. The ease of acquiring small bits of gold each month makes it so palatable for the person who is interested in starting the process of building an asset. The convenience of a credit card style packaging is extremely attractive for carrying and showing it to others.
Steve Duba
Spot Price = this is the up-to-the-moment international price of gold based upon open market activity. Since gold trades on commodity exchanges (and elsewhere) its price fluctuates constantly based upon the buying and selling activity in those markets all over the world every business day. The current spot price can easily be found by consulting any financial market report, and it will also be displayed on our website on the shopping cart page on which you can purchase your gold. If you are making your purchase through our website, you will know the spot price you have "locked in" with your purchase before you click the final "buy" confirmation. Otherwise, the person receiving this form from you can let you know at the time he or she places the order on your behalf. In either case, you will also receive an immediate email confirmation of your purchase and the exact cost of your gold.
Commission = this is the amount we charge to cover our costs of obtaining, inventorying, securing, verifying, handling, packaging, and administering the sale of the gold. We are committed to being a low commission leader in the industry for gold in the sizes we sell. Shipping and Handling = we charge a competitive, low rate of shipping and handling, requiring a signature by an adult at the time of arrival of your purchase. This protects your investment and gives you assurance that only you will receive your gold. Additionally, FREE SHIPPING and HANDLING is automatically given for orders of 6 or more cards at one time. State and local sales taxes may apply.

You see the ads on TV and online, and you hear them on the radio: they tout gold as a solid investment. It's true that people sometimes use gold to diversify their investment portfolio: it can help hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty. But how much gold to buy, in what form, at what price, and from whom, are important questions to answer before you make that investment.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, says if you are interested in buying gold, do some digging before investing. Some gold promoters don't deliver what they promise, and may push people into an investment that isn't right for them.
Gold Stocks and Funds – Buying stock in a gold mining firm or buying into a mutual fund that invests in gold bullion is a common way to invest in gold. Most brokerage firms buy and sell these financial instruments. Gold stocks and mutual funds may offer more liquidity than actual gold, and there's no need for an investor to store or protect gold investments purchased in this form. That said, any gold stock or mutual fund investment may carry inherent risk and may drop in value regardless of the price of gold.
Gold stocks and funds should only be purchased from licensed commodity brokers. You can check the registration status and disciplinary history of any futures firm or broker by contacting the National Futures Association (NFA).
Bullion and Bullion Coins – Bullion is a bulk quantity of precious metal, usually gold, platinum, or silver, assessed by weight and typically cast as ingots or bars. Dealers and some banks and brokerages sell bullion. Bullion coins are struck from precious metal – usually gold, platinum, or silver – and kept as an investment. They are not used in daily commerce. The value of bullion coins is determined mostly by their precious metals content rather than by rarity and condition. Prices may change throughout the day, depending on the prices for precious metals in the world markets. Coin dealers and some banks, brokerage firms, and precious metal dealers buy and sell bullion coins. The U.S. Mint has produced gold and silver bullion coins for investment purposes since 1986 and began producing platinum bullion coins in 1997. The U.S. Mint guarantees the precious metal weight, content, and purity of the coins they produce.
Collectible Coins– These coins have some historic or aesthetic value to coin collectors. Most collectible coins have a market value that exceeds their face value or their metal content. This collectible value is often called numismatic value. The coin dealers who sell collectible coins often have valuable coins graded by professional services, but grading can be subjective.
Regardless of the form of gold you may invest in, consider these universal truths:
Whether you are buying gold stocks and funds, bullion and bullion coins, or collectible coins, the FTC says do your homework first:
Promoters often use celebrities and high-profile personalities to tout their products. When someone says, "Invest in or buy gold with company ABC," think about what they're getting out of the deal. The fact is, many endorsers are paid by the company behind the product.
Read these publications from the FTC at ftc.gov for more information and guidance about investing in particular gold products:

Description: Melodrama is not just a film or literary genre but a powerful political discourse that galvanizes national sentiment to legitimate state violence. Finding virtue in national suffering and heroism in sovereign action, melodramatic political discourses cast war and surveillance as moral imperatives for eradicating villainy and upholding freedom. In Orgies of Feeling, Elisabeth R. Anker boldly reframes political theories of sovereignty, freedom, and power by analyzing the work of melodrama and affect in contemporary politics. Arguing that melodrama animates desires for unconstrained power, Anker examines melodramatic discourses in the War on Terror, neoliberal politics, anticommunist rhetoric, Hollywood film, and post-Marxist critical theory. Building on Friedrich Nietzsche's notion of "orgies of feeling," in which overwhelming emotions displace commonplace experiences of vulnerability and powerlessness onto a dramatic story of injured freedom, Anker contends that the recent upsurge in melodrama in the United States is an indication of public discontent. Yet the discontent that melodrama reflects is ultimately an expression of the public's inability to overcome systemic exploitation and inequality rather than an alarmist response to inflated threats to the nation.

Osmia Organics Organic Milk Bath
How: Sprinkle 2-3 scoops in running bath. Swirl water to dissolve any clumps. Sink in and enjoy.
*=certified organic
buttermilk powder*, skim milk powder*, sodium bicarbonate, ground oats*, proprietary blend of organic and wild-harvested essential oils
82% certified organic ingredients
Organic Milk Bath is made with organic buttermilk powder, which comes from cows. These cows are raised on farms that practice organic animal care, focused on holistic health practices for the animals without the use of antibiotics.
Osmia Organics begins with the ingredients we choose. We consider quality over cost-savings – we buy the most beautiful, raw plant materials we can find, even if they are more expensive. We are not a certified organic company at this time, but if an ingredient is available in certified organic form, that is how we will use it. All of our USDA certified organic ingredients are indicated with an asterisk in the list of ingredients on each product page.
Organic buttermilk and skim milk powders, organic oats, and baking soda combined with organic and wild-harvested essential oils make for a sublime natural bath experience. (Cleopatra was famous for taking milk baths, and had, by all reports, exceptionally beautiful skin.) This buttery powder instantly transforms the water into a luxurious, skin-conditioning milk. Dead skin cells are sloughed away by the milk acids and the gentle scent of lavender, rose geranium, and chamomile will soften your mood as well...
For: All skin types.

The Bulgarian Ministry of Agriculture released its strategy for the dairy and livestock sector development until 2014. The MinAg hopes that the document will play an important role for the formulation of the national CAP-reform position and will justify national funding support for the sector for 2012-2014.
THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary Public - Date: 9/20/2011 GAIN Report Number: Bulgaria Post: Sofia New Government Strategy for the Dairy and Livestock Sectors Report Categories: Agricultural Situation Approved By: Hoa V. Huynh Prepared By: Mila Boshnakova Report Highlights: The Bulgarian Ministry of Agriculture released its strategy for the dairy and livestock sector development until 2014. The MinAg hopes that the document will play an important role for the formulation of the national CAP-reform position and will justify national funding support for the sector for 2012-2014. It forecasts a continuation of ongoing concentration and commercialization in the dairy and livestock sectors, further reduction in the number of farms; the number of dairy cows will stabilize but the milk productivity will increase. Genetics and new technologies will play a key role in the dairy sector. Swine and poultry sectors, which already see a high degree of concentration and commercialization, will gradually improve and significant investments should be put in adoption of EU animal welfare standards. In order to strengthen support for dairy and livestock farmers and achieve goals in its strategy, the MinAg plans to more than double domestic support for the sector by 2014 to over 150 million Euro. General Information: Overview In August 2011, the MinAg released its strategy for the dairy and livestock sector development until 2014. In the past, the MinAg made efforts to elaborate strategies for various sectors, however, they usually failed since they were not based on sound analysis, not consulted with the industry, and not supported by funds/resources. The new strategy is the first one which eliminates previous deficiencies and has a chance to become a major strategic document for the development of the dairy and meat sectors in the next 3 years. The MinAg hopes that the document will play an important role for the formulation of the national CAP-reform position and will justify national funding support for the sector for 2012-2014. [1] The MinAg recognizes the current lack of balanced approach in the domestic support policies. The dairy and livestock sectors account for 30% total ag sector production but they receive only 14% of total ag subsidies. While subsidies for crop farms account for 22% of the crop value, for livestock farms this index is 6%. The average income of a livestock farm is usually 2.5 times lower than of a field crop farm. In Bulgaria, total ag subsidies account for 27% of the farm income compared to 40% in the EU. Major findings of the MinAg analysis for the dairy and livestock sectors for the period 2007-210 were: the decline in livestock numbers bottomed off, currently the number of livestock is slowly but steadily increasing; livestock farms get bigger due to ongoing consolidation; product orientation changes ? new meat farms emerge; the types of livestock raised at farms change ? smaller and mountainous cattle farms switch to sheep and goats farming; animal selection and breeding improve and the number of livestock under selection control increases. The MinAg forecasts a continuation of ongoing concentration and commercialization in the dairy and livestock sectors, further reduction in the number of farms, the number of dairy cows will stabilize but the milk productivity will increase; there will be more beef cattle farms as well as larger, commercial type sheep and goat farms. Swine and poultry sectors, which already see a high degree of concentration and commercialization, will gradually improve and significant investments should be put in adoption of EU animal welfare standards. The MinAg makes direct correlation between the ongoing positive trends in the dairy and livestock sectors and improving domestic support in 2009/2010. In order to strengthen support for livestock farmers and achieve goals in its strategy, the MinAg plans to more than double domestic support for the sector by 2014 to over 150 million Euro. Agricultural Sector Development 2007-2010 Agriculture in Bulgarian GDP: The agricultural sector?s contribution to the economy over the last several years declined from 13.9% in 2000 to 6.0% in 2010 but it is still higher than the average in the EU (1.8%). The importance of agriculture is, in fact, increasing due to its role for the development of rural areas, as a source of income for a significant part of the population not limited to farmers, and as an economic and trade engine for the national economy in years of financial challenges (2009-2011). In 2010, the agriculture/forestry/hunting Gross Added Value/GAV was 3.19 billion leva (1.6 billion Euro) which was 5.3% of the national GAV and 4.5% of GDP. The quarterly growth in the ag sector in 2010 was the fastest compared to all other economic sectors. The GAV grew by 11% vs 2009 and the value of agricultural products alone grew by 1.4%. Labor in agriculture in 2010 was 750,000 people with 92.8% family labor; this is 20.7% less than in 2007. Usually, two thirds of all ag labor is employed in the dairy and livestock sectors. Agricultural Trade: Agriculture is the only economic sector which has been registering positive and growing trade balance (with the exception of dry 2007). The ag trade surplus has grown from $220 million in 2008 to $944 million in 2010 or more than fourfold. The share of ag exports to total national exports was 17% and the share in imports about 10% (2010). Agricultural Subsidies: In 2007-2010, subsidies accounted for 27% of farmers? income in the ag sector compared to 40% for the EU. There are significant variations, however, between the crop and dairy&livestock (DL) sectors on this index. Dairy and Livestock Sectors Development 2007-2010 In the period 2007-2010, dairy and livestock sectors in Bulgaria underwent important restructuring and transformation changes. This period coincided with the first three years of EU accession and the use of first EU subsidies. Dairy and Livestock Sectors Gross Product In 2010, the share of the value produced in the DL sectors to the total ag sector was 30.9% - 2.3 billion leva (1.65 billion Euro) and grew by 4.6% compared to 2009. The crop sector accounted for 53.2% of the ag value (3.99 billion leva/2.0 billion Euro). The highest growth was seen for the cattle products (mainly milk) - 36.5%, followed by eggs- 10.2%. The subsectors which contributed the most for this growth were: Milk production ? 33.5% of DL sector production (776 million leva/390 million Euro) Poultry- 16.2% of DL sector production (375 million leva/188 million Euro) Swine - 12.4% of DL sector production (288 million leva/144 million Euro) Sheep and goats ? 12.2% of DL sector production (283 million leva/143 million Euro) Cattle ? 11.2% of DL sector production (259 million leva/130 million Euro) Trade The trade balance of the DL sector has improved slowly but steadily. In 2010, foreign trade in the sector was 12.7% higher and reached $960 million; exports grew by 19.8% (live animals, dairy, poultry and sheep meat) and imports by 9.06% (mainly dairy products); this DL trade accounted for 16% of total agricultural trade. EU was the major partner accounting for 80% of DL trade. Although traditionally the value of imports has been higher than exports due to substantial meat imports, in 2008- 2010, the trade balance was improving as the deficit was 8% less in 2010 vs 2009. Exports: In 2010, dairy exports were at 36,000 MT for $95 million. Although the milk production in 2010 declined, exports of dairy processed products improved by 3.2%. Cheese accounted for 64% of exports, followed by yogurt and cream ? 20.3%. Meat exports in 2010 were 55,000 MT which was 43% more than in 2009. The lion?s share belonged to poultry meat, 83.5%, exported to the EU; it grew by 57% to 46,000 MT. Exports of red meat were symbolic. Another export item was live sheep/lamb, about 208,000 head (vs 20,000 head in 2009 and 13,000 head in 2008). Domestic Support for the Dairy and Livestock Sector The MinAg admits that it is difficult to evaluate the effect of EU subsidies for the period 2007-2010 since two of these four years, 2007 and 2009 were exceptional- 2007 was a very unfavorable (dry) year and 2009/10 was the peak of the economic crisis. Table 1. Domestic Support for the Dairy and Livestock Sectors 2007-2010, million leva (2.0 leva=1.95 Euro) Domestic Support for the Dairy and Livestock Sectors 2007-2010, million leva Million leva 2007 2008 2009 2010 State aid 18.6 63.3 25.9 25.3 -Incl. de minimis schemes 1.3 42.2 0 0 National Support for Live Animals 0 42.6 59.5 59.9 Specific support for cow milk/art.68 of Regulation 73/2009 0 0 0 20.3 Market support for the dairy sector, Regulation 1233/2009 0 0 0 3.6 SAPS ? subsidies for pastures 0 14.0 18.0 35.0 (estimated) Total 18.6 119.9 103.4 144.1 Including Bulgarian National Budget 18.6 105.9 85.4 85.2 Source: Bulgarian Ministry of Agriculture In 2010, total ag domestic support under SAPS (single area payment scheme or subsidies per hectare of cultivated land) and state aid for the agricultural sector was 1.025 billion leva (500 million Euro) of which only 144.1 million leva (72 million Euro) or 14% for the DL sectors. This amount was only 6.2% of the value of DL sector production while subsidies for crops accounted for 22% of the crop production value. Similar lack of balance between the crop and DL sectors was observed at the farm level as well. In 2005 and 2006, before EU accession, the share of subsidies in the gross production for crop and livestock farms respectively, was 1.78% and 1.22% (2005); in 2006, this share was slightly higher, 3.21% and 3.17%, respectively. In 2007, subsidies in the crop production accounted for 16% of the gross product compared to below 6% for the livestock farms. Since 2007 SAPS subsidies favored crop producers much more than livestock farmers since livestock farms usually have little land. This difference led to lower income levels (for example, the average income at a sheep/cattle farm was 2.5 times lower than at a field crops farm) and to lack of capacity or inability to undertake investment for modernization, restructuring and competitiveness. In 2009 and 2010, the main focus of DL domestic support was on dairy cattle. The MinAg found a direct relationship between the increased support and the growth in the value of the gross product. Thus, in 2010 the gross value product in the dairy sector grew by 36.5% vs 2009. In addition, the sector underwent accelerated structural changes such as consolidation and merging. The MinAg analysis registered certain trends in the dairy sector and made a conclusion that they are a result of better domestic support in 2009 and 2010. The trends are as follows: increased number of livestock; livestock farms get bigger, ongoing consolidation; product orientation changes ? emerging of meat farms; change in the types of livestock raised at farms ? from cattle to sheep and goats; improvement of animal selection and breeding and increase in the number of livestock under selection control. The analysis, however, seemed to ignore ongoing market processes on the EU and on the local market as the main driving force behind the above trends. Increased number of livestock In 2010, the multiyear negative trend of decline in the number of animals bottomed off. In the period 2007-2009, livestock numbers declined significantly: 9% for cattle, 13.4% for cows; 2.3% for sheep, 4.7% for goats and 13.9% for swine. In 2010, the number of livestock covered by the domestic support increased by 7.34% for cattle, 11.54% for cows, 1.3% for sheep and 8.4% for goats?which helped for the negative trend to be stopped and changed. Poultry/layers and pork sectors were not subject of any domestic support and the reduction in the numbers in 2010 continued ? by 9.7% for swine and by 9.3% for poultry (mainly layers). The two regions, South East and South Central, which were the major beneficiaries of domestic support, witnessed bottom-off trends even earlier, at the end of 2009. In 2010, the growth in cows in these regions was 13% and 21%, respectively, compared to 2009. Livestock farms get bigger and better, ongoing consolidation In 2007 - 2010, the pace of reduction in the number of farms was much faster than the decline in the number of livestock. As a result, the average number of animals per a farm increased. In addition, larger farms undertook a more active investment and increased their herds. Cattle and cows: In 2010, cattle farms were 28% less than in 2007. Over the past year, the reduction in the number of farms was substantial in the categories of up to 10 cows and from 10 to 19 cows ? by 18% and 20%, respectively; while farms with more than 50 cattle increased by 23.7% together with their stocks- by 23.2%. The same was the trend at dairy cow farms- the category with more than 50 cows had 46% more farms and 34.6% more stocks, followed by the category of 10-50 dairy cows- 21.3% more farms and 24.5% more stocks. According to the physical on-site MinAg inspections, as of early 2011, 46,440 dairy farms closed in the period 2007-2010, however, it did not have a serious impact on the total number of cows due to ongoing concentration. Sheep and goats: The trends were similar. Total number of sheep farms in 2010 was 33% less than in 2007. In 2010, farms with up to 50 ewes were 10% down and they raised 16% less sheep; while farms with more than 200 ewes increased by 23.8% as well as their sheep stocks - by 16.9%. For goat farms, the growth was at farms with 50-200 animals - 16% more farms and 18% more livestock. Swine: The negative trends in the sector still continue. In 2010, swine and sows numbers declined by 9% and 4%, respectively, compared to 2009. The deepest reduction was at the category 50-200 swine - 54.8% less farms. Still, the sector remains highly concentrated, 31 farms raise 56% of all swine. Poultry: Larger layers farms in 2010 were 7.8% more than in 2009 and they accounted for 73% of the stocks; the remaining 27% of layers were raised in small family farms. Large farms with more 10,000 layers were 4 fewer but they raised 6% more layers; farms with 100,000 layers raised 13.6% more stocks. In 2010, there was a reduction in total number of layers of 11%. For broilers, the number of both large and small farms increased by 31% and 29% respectively. Change in product orientation ? emerging of meat farms In 2010, meat cattle farms increased both in numbers (2%) and in stocks (17%), the highest was the growth (19%) for a 10-50 animal type farms. The three southern regions were the major beneficiaries of domestic support (national payment for suckling calves) ? 87% of all support, and respectively they registered the highest growth in meat cows- 17%. Meat ewes stocks also increased by 26.6%, and the farms - by 3%. The category of above 50 ewes farms sow 6-fold growth in the number of farms and 121% more animals; the category with above 200 sheep farms saw 108% more farms and 88% more stocks. The three southern regions emerged as specializing in this direction: the number of ewes for meat there increased by 105%, 242% and 90%, respectively for the 3 regions vs 2009. Change in the types of livestock raised at farms ? from cattle to sheep and goats In certain regions in the country, farmers are switching from cattle to sheep and goats breeding. Such trends are seen in Vidin, Veliko Turnovo, Gabrovo, Rousse, and Haskovo, and/or mainly in mountain areas. These trends are expected to accelerate due to expiration of EU derogation for cow milk quality at end-2011. Currently, 2,679 dairy cow farms fully meet all EU requirements, they raise 105,000 cows or 35% of all, and own milk quotas for 454,000 MT or about half of the national quota. Dairy farms which partially meet the EU requirements are 813, with 14,000 dairy cows and have 40,000 MT of milk quotas. Farms which do not meet EU requirements are 43,000 and they have milk quotas for 525,000 MT. Out of this third category, about 9,500 farms (161,000 dairy cows) are commercially oriented. Thus, by the end of the derogation period (end- 2011 - early-2012), not more than 15,000 dairy cow farms are forecast to remain on the market; they will raise 280,000 dairy cows. The MinAg plans to support the above trends by focusing more domestic support on ewes and she-goat farms. Improvement of animal selection and breeding and increase in the number of livestock under selection control In 2010, Bulgaria had 37 breeding associations. The number of livestock under breeding control increased by 20% for cattle, 11% for buffalo, 4% for sheep and by 44% for horses. The MinAg forecast is for further growth in 2011 ? by 30% for cattle; 11% for buffalo, 11% for sheep and 10% for goats (compared to 2009). Baseline and Forecast for 2011-2014 The major trends forecasted by the government are as follows: -Higher gross product of the DL sector achieved mainly by improved productivity, followed by increase in the number of animals at fewer but more productive and technologically advanced farms; -Higher income of livestock farmers; -Higher exports and lower share of imports in domestic consumption; -Improved genetics progress; The ongoing restructuring is expected to lead to higher concentration, improved genetic resources, and development of a meat sub-sector. These changes will occur in the environment of economic uncertainty and vulnerability; increasing grain feed prices; maturing consumer market and higher consumer demand for better quality foods. Dairy sector 2014: less farms, higher milk productivity through better genetics, more milk supply The MinAg forecasts that by 2014 the number of dairy cattle farms will decline by 24% vs 2010 and the number of cows will be 5% more as less productive cows will be switched to be raised for meat. The MinAg policy in the dairy sector in 2011-2014 will focus on: - Increase the average number of dairy animals per a farm. The forecast is for 40% reduction in the number of dairy cow farms but only 3% less cows. - Increase the average milk productivity through artificial insemination and imports of hi-breed animals. The MinAg expects that currently available EU support programs for the dairy sector will support the above goals. In 2011, the number of dairy cows subject of such support is 11% more than in 2010 and payments are planned to increase by 63% vs 2010. The MinAg forecasts the number of cattle and sheep under selection control will grow by 6% by 2012; and by 2% by 2013 and 2014; for horses the growth is at 3%-4%; for the remaining species the numbers will be stable. The number of cows under artificial insemination is likely to increase to 34% in 2012; 40% in 2013 and 46% in 2014. As a result, the expected restructuring and improved breeding is likely to lead to 14% higher milk productivity. Milk production is likely to grow by 10% in 2014 vs 2010. The diversity of processed dairy products is likely to expand. Exports of dairy products should increase supported by promotional programs for cheeses (to Germany, Spain, Russia and Ukraine). Currently, these promotional programs have a total budget of 5.2 million Euro and are implemented by two industry organizations. Direct sales of cow milk, especially in mountain and less favored areas, will increase. It is considered that this will prepare the industry for the soft landing and abolishment of dairy quotas. Higher beef production in 2014 Due to expected switch of certain dairy farms to meat production, the MinAg plans to support imports of pure-bred meat breeds animals. This will lead to higher number of farmers subject of domestic support for beef production; will lead to growth in beef supply; and will result in better and more efficient pastures? use. In turn, it may lead to higher commercial beef supply. By 2014, meat cows are forecast to be 87% more, raised in 30% more farms compared to 2010 (this is equal to about 32,000 cows). In 2012 and 2013, beef production is forecast to increase slightly by 1.8% vs 2010 and by 2014 to be 2.8% higher and reach 19,500 MT. Upon stable exports and imports, domestic consumption is likely to be around 31-32,000 MT. Sheep sector development in 2014 This sub-sector will further concentrate and productivity should improve. The forecast is for 22% decline in farms and 38% growth in dairy sheep, as this growth will occur mainly at farms with more than 50 animals. Meat sheep farms will decline by 42% vs 2010 but the number of sheep raised will be 41% more. The MinAg will focus its policy on genetics in order to develop higher supply of quality sheep meat. The MinAg will continue to use currently implemented support programs for smaller, 10- 150 animal sheep and goats farms as the number of animals benefitting from these programs will increase in the future. Sheep and lamb meat production is likely to increase by 2014 by 36% which should lead to 18% lower imports and 5% higher exports compared to 2010. Swine sector development in 2014 By 2013 the sector should upgrade technologically to adopt EU requirements for animal welfare and for environmental protection. No change is expected in the number of farms while the number of sows is likely to grow by 53%, and thus pork supply should increase. This is forecasted to lead to lower imports of pork and more processing of local pork. Pork will continue to be the major red meat in the country. By 2014, its consumption is forecast to increase by 6% with imports declining by 9% and exports growing 14%. Poultry sector development in 2014 The major task in front of the industry is to upgrade/enlarge cages for layers as per EU animal welfare requirements until end-2011. This is expected to lead to 6% reduction in the number of farms. By 2014, the number of layers is likely to be 20% more than in 2010. Domestic Support for the Dairy and Livestock Sectors 2011-2014 To achieve the above goals, the MinAg plans gradual increase in domestic support for the DL sector after 2012 by 10% annually. In 2011, total support funds for the sector are 200 million leva (100 million Euro), 304 million leva for 2012 (152 million Euro or 50% growth); 325-345 million leva for 2014 (163-173 million Euro or 10% more than 2012). The sources for the above funds are: 1. EU-SAPS payments for pastures- growth by 10% annually (EU Regulation 73/2009). In 2011, these payments were 70 million leva (35 million Euro), by 2014 this budget will increase to 95- 100 million leva (50 million Euro) provided that pasture areas under subsidies also grow slightly. 2. National payments for livestock set at: 60 million in 2011 (30 million Euro); 81 million leva for 2012 (40 million Euro); 76 million for 2013 and 2014 (38 million Euro) 1. Specific support for livestock (art.68, Regulation 73/2009) ? 38 million leva annually (19 million Euro) 2. Notification of a new state aid for voluntary introduction of humane attitude to animals for swine and poultry- 82 million leva annually (41 million Euro) 3. Establishment of a new program under the Rural Development for humane attitude 4. Other state aids including ?de minimis? ? 26-30 million leva annually (15 million Euro). Gradual increase in the funds targeted at the domestic support for the DL sector will provide a safety net for a minimum farmers? income in highly volatile market environment and will stimulate active investment.

This includes mainly top dairy genetics which is already on the market but its market share can expand in the future. Other not yet discovered opportunities are related to genetics for meat cattle breeds as well as genetics for poultry, swine and sheep. In addition, the overall animal feeding is improving which opens market niches for imports of more sophisticated feed ingredients and other inputs related to establishment of larger modern dairy and livestock farms.

Inter-Island Vacations: Choosing a Hawaiian Airline
Have you not long contracted to thieve a artistic style Hawaiian getaway? If so, have you ready-made your be carried arrangements yet? If not, you are urged to inauguration examining your options.

The groovy word is that you don't have to deciding fair one. If you would like, you can efficiently agenda what is familiar as an inter-island Hawaii leisure time.
When it comes to preparation an inter-island Hawaiian vacation, at hand are a gigantic digit of individuals who as a reflex action suggest that it reimbursement too substantially exchange. What you involve to remind is that an inter-island flight isn't like the getaway that you potential took to get to Hawaii. Instead of winged in on an hosepipe that services all of the United States or even opposite planetary countries, you will liable be flying coral isle to atoll on a Hawaiian airline, a petite one at that. So, if you are interested in having an inter-island vacation, the first state of affairs that you necessitate to do is find which islands you would like-minded to call round.

Once you have ready-made a list of all of the Hawaiian airlines that volunteer inter-island flights, viz. to the islands of your choice, you can consequently to added give something the onceover them. One of the lots material possession that you will privation to nearly assess is outflow. As you feasible merely know, assorted Hawaiian airlines citation antithetic amounts of money, even for the same strain of provision. For that reason, you will deprivation dissect the magnitude of silver that all Hawaiian air hose charges for inter-island trips. If you are looking to collect the best money, you will impoverishment to go next to the Hawaiian hose that charges the most minuscule magnitude of booty.
Although it is consequential to look over the charge of an inter-island flight, it likewise copernican to study the type of craft that you will be winged in. Better yet, it is grave to measure its size. It is not special for inter-island Hawaiian airlines to proposal offstage flights, but not all do. Of course, if you are looking to have a one-on-one flight, you will well-nigh always have to pay much investments. Therefore, if you are touring on a monetary fund or if you do not be concerned allocation a hasty flight near other than passengers, you are wise to do so.
