Oil Press
By Jeff Cox -- from Organic Gardening, April 1979, Rodale Press IN 2,500 SQUARE FEET, a family of four can grow each year enough sunflower seed to produce three gallons of homemade vegetable oil suitable for salads or cooking and 20 pounds of nutritious, dehulled seed -- with enough broken seeds left over to feed a winter's worth of birds.The problem, heretofore, with sunflower seeds was the difficulty of dehulling them at home, and the lack of a device for expressing oil from the seeds. About six months ago, we decided to change all that. The job was to find out who makes a sunflower seed dehuller or to devise one if none were manufactured. And to either locate a home-scale oilseed press or devise one. No mean task.Our researches took us from North Dakota -- hub of commercial sunflower activity in the nation -- to a search of the files in the U.S.
Catch-All Laminated Bib
We have a problem in our household. Our little guy loves to eat and while doing so…..he makes a mess. The tray of highchair is useless, really. Everything ends up wedged between his belly and the tray…….or along his sides. I have seen those bibs at the store that are made out of rubber to catch all of the food and debris while kids eat……but I can't make a rubber form myself. So I resorted to this Catch-All Laminated Bib.
Perfect Machine Tension Every Time
Good tension produces a smooth stitch without puckers. If the top and bottom threads break in exactly the same location, your tension is perfect. The threads may break in more than one place, but the top and bottom threads will both break at that location.
from the blue chair: Quilting 101: Machine Maintenance
When I bought my first sewing machine years ago, I had no idea what I needed to do to take care of it. It had a 90-day warranty for any problem whatsoever. After about two months it started acting up. I took it back to the store, and they checked it out. It seems I failed to ever clean my machine. I didn't even know I needed to or how to do it.
DIY Anaerobic Glass Fermentation Vessel
Build A Glass Anaerobic Fermentation Vessel March 6, 2013 from left to right: empty 5-gallon vessel, 2-gallon vessel with unground idli batter, 1-gallon vessel with water kefir Building an all glass, anaerobic lacto-fermentation vessel is extremely easy. All it takes is the creation of single 5/8″ hole, an objective simply accomplished with a hand drill. If (for some reason) you have access to a drill press, this already rudimentary project is made even easier!
Barefoot Baby Sandals
Little gems like these are why I NEED a little girl! ha Yeah right I need another baby right now like I need a hole in my head! I first saw them at a craft fair and fell in love but they were fabric and sewing isn't my strong suit so I had forgotten about them. Then one day browsing pinterest I saw a crocheted pair but never could find a pattern for them.

What is Rooting and Unrooting in a Android Mobile
There are lots of reasons why people get android phone and one is, its power and ability to customize the heck out of it. But that doesn't mean that other platform are not good and customizable. Android offers users the ability to tweak its overall look just with the use of Widgets, Home Screen Launcher and other features which you can download from Google Play Store. But sometimes these features get failed to provide deeper customization and this is where "rooting" comes in. If you are Android phone users then I'm sure that you've read about this term over web on a different website.
Honey Extractor
Got Bee's? I knew this day would come. One day all those bees would make some honey then I would have to make a honey extractor-anator and extract all the honey in the tri-state area. After all what could go wrong? I have been a city bee keeper for two years now and this will be my first harvest. I couldn't afford a commercial honey extractor and borrowing the local clubs extractor seemed like a lot of work planning ahead and rushing to go get it extract and then return.

(The Lord of Truth is Re)

(One establishing laws, pacifying the two lands
| Kanakht Emkhaimaat
(The strong bull, appearing in truth)

| Thutmose IV (father)

Nebmaatre Amenhotep III (called Nibmu(`w)areya in the Amarna letters) was an Egyptian pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty. According to different authors, he ruled Egypt from June 1391 BC-December 1353 BC or June 1388 BC to December 1351 BC/1350 BC[1] after his father Thutmose IV died.
Amenhotep III is known to have fathered two sons with his Chief Queen Tiye: the Crown Prince Tuthmose who predeceased his father, his second son Akhenaten who ultimately succeeded him to the throne. He may have possibly fathered a third son--the mysterious king Smenkhkare who later succeeded Akhenaten.[2] Amenhotep III is known to have married Gilukhepa--a diplomatic bride--who was the daughter of Shuttarna II of Mitanni in Year 10 of his reign.[3]
Amenhotep's names are shown in Egyptian Hieroglyphs to the right. The etymology of the name Amenhotep can be interpreted as "Amun is pleased". His nomen is transliterated as ỉmn-ḥtp ḥḳ3-w3st, which is usually realised as Amenhotep Hekawaset. His epithet, Hekawaset, means "ruler of Thebes". In Greek, Amenhotep was called Amenophis. Upon his ascension to the throne, Anenhotep took the praenomen Nebmaatre. This is transliterated as nb-m3t-r, and is the name written Nibmu(`w)areya in the Amarna letters.
Amenhotep III has the distinction of having the most surviving statues of any Egyptian Pharaoh. Over 250 statues of Amenhotep III have been discovered. Since these statues cover his entire life, they provide the most complete portraiture over time of any ancient Egyptian ruler. Amenhotep appears to have been crowned while still a child, perhaps between the ages of 6 and 12. His lengthy reign was a period of great peace, prosperity, and artistic splendour. He celebrated three Jubilee Festivals in his Year 30, Year 34 and Year 37 respectively. His Highest attested Year dates are a pair of Year 38 Wine dockets from his summer palace at Malkata.
His reign was remembered in later eras as a time of unprecedented prosperity and splendour when Egypt reached the very heights of her artistic and international power. Proof of this is shown by the diplomatic correspondence from the rulers of Assyria, Mitanni, Babylon and Hatti which is preserved in the archive of Amarna Letters found in 1887. They cover the period from Year 30 of Amenhotep III until the end of Akhenaten's reign. In one well-known letter, king Tushratta of Mitanni famously requests that Amenhotep ..
|my brother [must] send me gold in very great quantity without measure. For in my brother's land, gold is as plentiful as dust.[4]
He built extensively at the temple of Karnak, including at least two pylons, a colonnade behind the new entrance, and a new temple to the goddess Ma'at. He oversaw construction of another temple to her at Luxor and virtually covered Nubia with numerous monuments "including a small temple with a colonnade (dedicated to Thutmose III) at Elephantine, a rock temple dedicated to Amun 'Lord of the Ways' at Wadi es-Sebuam, and the temple of Horus of Miam at Aniba...[as well as founding] additional temples at Kawa and Sesebi."[5]
In Year 11 of this reign, he seems to have started a move to Luxor, and began construction of a huge palace there, now called Malkata on the west bank.
His mortuary temple on the west bank of the Nile was, in its day, the largest religious complex in Thebes but, unfortunately, he chose to build too close to the floodplain and less than 200 years later, it stood in ruins. Much of the masonry was purloined by later pharaohs for their own construction projects. The Colossi of Memnon — two massive 18-metre stone statues of Amenhotep that stood at the gateway of his mortuary temple — are the only elements of the complex that remained standing.
Physical decline
Amenhotep III was buried in the Western Valley of the Valley of the Kings, in Tomb WV22. A forensic examination of his mummy reveals that he suffered from horribly worn and cavity pitted teeth and was probably in constant pain during his final years.
According to Nicolas Grimal, reliefs from the wall of the temple of Soleb in Nubia and scenes from the Theban tomb of Kheruef, Steward of the King's Great Wife (TT192) depict Amenhotep as a visibly weak and sick figure. Amenhotep once requested and received from Tushratta of Mitanni a statue of Ishtar of Nineveh, a healing godess, to cure him of his ailments, but this predictably didn't work.
There is no conclusive evidence of a coregency between Amenhotep III and his son, Akhenaten. A letter dated to Year 2 of Akhenaten's reign from the Hittite king Suppiluliuma I, congratulates Akhenaten on his accession to power and wishes that the peaceful relations which existed between Egypt and Hatti during Amenhotep III's reign would continue into his son's rule. This correspondence implies that if any coregency occurred between Amenhotep III and Akhenaten, it lasted for no more than a year at the most.

Due to recent changes in legislation and an ongoing shortage of dentists that work with children, demand for children's dentistry is soaring. For dentists who love working with children, this is a savvy career choice with a promising future. Here's why:
- High Income: Data from the American Dental Association indicates that dentistry for children is now the fastest growing dental specialty, and the impressive salary might be partly to explain. On average, dentists who work with children earn annual incomes that are $100,000 higher than general dentists.
- Job Security: Unlike some forms of elective and cosmetic dentistry, which are more susceptible to economic ups and downs, children's dentistry is seen as somewhat recession proof. While adults may forgo even necessary dental procedures in times of financial difficulty, they are less likely to delay dental care for their children.
- Growing Patient Demand: In many areas of the country, especially in poorer and more rural areas, demand for dentists far exceeds supply. But demand is skyrocketing everywhere for a multitude of other reasons, including a rising incidence of tooth decay and a public that is becoming better educated on the importance of dental care early in life. To top it off, the Affordable Care Act will give dental benefits to as many as 8.7 million additional children by the year 2018, bringing demand for children's dentists to unprecedented levels.
For decades to come, dentistry for children will be a secure and lucrative career path. But at Kool Smiles, our dentists don't just make a great living. They make a difference in the lives of underserved children across the country. They end every day knowing they've made a positive change in the life of a child. What more could you ask for?
Could you see yourself as a Kool Smiles dentist? Why or why not?

"7 habits of highly effective CIOs"
North Dakota Information Technology Department
New Jersey Office of Information Technology
Editor's Note: This story was updated at 5:15 p.m. April 10, 2006, with additional information.
Lisa Feldner, who has been technology director for the Bismarck Public Schools for the past 15 years, was appointed North Dakota's chief information officer by Gov. John Hoeven last week.
She replaces Curt Wolfe, who retired at the end of last year. Mike Ressler has been serving as interim CIO until Feldner's appointment.
In the public school system, Feldner managed the development, design and integration of software and hardware systems for more than 13,000 users across 26 campuses, according to a release the governor's office published.
She is the recipient of numerous technology awards and serves on several boards and commissions in the state, including the Educational Technology Council and the Association of Technology Leaders.
Feldner, who will start her new post May 8, also serves on the technical committee of the North Dakota Statewide Technology Access for Government and Education network (STAGEnet), which provides statewide high-speed connectivity.
"Lisa is committed to advancing North Dakota's comprehensive technology plan," Hoeven said in a prepared statement. "We have laid a strong foundation with STAGEnet, which links schools and state government in an integrated voice, data and video network, and now Lisa will bring to the job the skills necessary to take the state to the next level of development."
In Illinois, Jim Matthews, who has been CIO for the past three years, is leaving his position at the end of this week to return to the private sector. Rafael Diaz will take over as acting CIO until a permanent replacement is named, said Geoff Potter, a spokesman at the state's Department of Central Management Services. He said Matthews has helped significantly upgrade the state's IT and telecommunications capabilities and improve efficiency by consolidating efforts across agencies.
"We appreciate what he's done here," Potter said. "And he helped us really complete the consolidation of telecom and IT from the former structure where those duties were scattered around state government into one organization, which is [the Bureau of Communications and Computer Services], that has actually doubled in size in the past three years."
In other state government news, Steve Dawson, who was CIO and chief technology officer for New Jersey since 2002, resigned in mid-March. Adel Ebeid, an 18-year state employee who served as a deputy in the Office of Information Technology, has replaced him on an interim basis.
According to the Newark Star-Ledger, state lawmakers criticized Dawson's management of the IT office and oversight of state operations, including $500 million the state spends on computers annually. Dawson could not give an exact figure, but he said there was a significant waste of money. Consequently, Gov. Jon Corzine ordered a review of the spending, according to the newspaper.

5 simple steps to be more prepared for your Event coverage
1. Scout the Venue
Know your venue and performance. Find out how the lighting is going to be so you may bring your own if it's too low light. Before you arrive to the day of the event make sure you already know the best camera placements, available electrical outlets, performance, venue layout, lighting changes and sound system
2. Arrive early to the Venue
Start by arriving early and scouting the venue for establishing shots and B-rolls. Capture everything you may need for your edits later on before the event starts, such as the location from outside the building then make your way down to the event Banner. Get it out of the way before it becomes hectic so you won't forget later on!
3. Shoot with Multiple cameras
It's difficult to cover a whole event edequately with 1 camera, decide which camera will be shooting which part of the event, master shot, close ups of audience and performances. That way you won't miss anything out with assigned roles.
4. Beware of your Batteries!
Bring sufficient batteries. If you can't get a hold of enough batteries, have the least minimum of 3. Always have atleast 1 backup battery on you incase the 2nd one is charging and the 3rd being used and alterlate and anticipate your event so you wont miss out anything.
5. Anticipate and use hand held
Don't be afraid to use hand held, turn your body into a stabliliser, get close ups of everything and everyone. Shooting with handheld gives your more mobility than of with a tripod in case of sudden changes in the event. Plus, a camera propped on a tripod with a master shot isn't suffiecient to show the liveliness of an event, show people whats happening in the event.
Hopefully these tips will help you be more prepared for your upcoming events. MYM ImageWorks, We Do more for your Business.

Nothing is more relaxing getting a proper massage from a registered massage therapist. The feeling of having your muscles relieved of the tension in a stress-free environment is especially welcome after a long and hectic work week.
Not all massage styles are the same, though. Some massage types are more geared towards a therapeutic end, while others emphasize relaxation. Here are some of the main types of massages that fall into the latter category.
- Traditional Relaxation Massage
Based on the Swedish massage techniques of smooth, gliding and gentle motions, the traditional relaxation massage achieves just that – relaxation. It improves circulation and range of motion, decreases swelling from injury and relieves minor muscle pain. Most importantly, this style reduces stress and tension while promoting overall relaxation. It decreases blood pressure and heart rate; it stimulates the digestive and lymphatic systems. It is perfect for the person who gets massages once in a while as a treat and just wants to relax.
- Rain Drop Therapy
This style of massage uses seven essential oils placed along the spine and feet that are massaged into the body. It is good for chronic pain relief, strengthening the immune system, balancing physical and emotional wellbeing and detoxifying the body.
- Hot Stone Massage
Stones, usually basalt or lava rocks, are heated to a comfortable temperature and placed throughout certain pressure points on the body in this form of massage. The registered massage therapist uses various massage strokes and alternates the hot stones with cool stones or marble to decrease inflammation. The goal of this style of massage is for the heat to deeply penetrate the muscles and tissues and release overall tension.
- Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy uses essential plant oils that that enter the body through application, inhalation or water immersion. The oils help alter your mood and relax you. Aromatherapy is typically used in conjunction with relaxation massages.
Knowing the difference kinds of massage techniques is a great way to know just what style fits you best. So next time you are in need of a relaxing massage, keep these mind and choose the right one for your needs.

Lacombe County will be assisting the Eckville Arena Operating Association with repairs to the aging arena.
The Lacombe County Council approved the funding request at the Feb. 26 meeting of council.
The county agreed to pay for 25 per cent of the total cost for the arena's compressor room upgrades.
According to the Eckville Arena Operating Association, the total cost of the project is expected to be $282,052.55.
Lacombe County has committed to chip in $70,513 of the total cost, roughly 25 per cent.
The funding is coming out of the County's Policy RC(1) Capital Support of Recreation and Cultural Facilities budget.
The association has reached out to other municipalities to fund the project including the Town of Eckville, Clearwater County. The Eckville Arena Operating Association has also reached out to the Government of Alberta for help.
The association is planning to develop a funding model for the project that accurately depicts the users of the arena.
Currently, Eckville Arena Operating Association says there are 305 and member, with 225 being active participants.
The Association says of the 225 active participants, the majority is youth, at 136 members, the remaining 119 are adult members.
Roughly 29 per cent of the arena users are youth from Lacombe County. The Association says 49 per cent of the arena users are Clearwater County youth.
Only 16 per cent of all arena users are Eckville youth, while the association says only five per cent of the town's adults utilize the arena.
Clearwater County has tabled the funding request at this time. The Council will revisit the request later in March after a joint meeting with Lacombe County later this month.

Despite Economy, Online Sales Continue to Grow
Online sales are on the upswing despite the challenging economy, according to a recently published report from Epsilon Targeting, the data division of Dallas-based marketing services firm Epsilon.
The report, which is based on 2008 aggregated merchandise purchase data from the Abacus Cooperative database, found the percentage of sales taking place online has grown by 30 percent over the past four years, with 8 percent growth in the most recent year alone. During this time, the proportion of retail sales were flat and call center-based sales declined, according to the report.
Average dollar per online transaction also has increased over the past four years, the report says.
On the other hand, the average sale and spend per household declined in 2008 from 2007 for all channels except the online channel.
Highly valuable multichannel buyers
The study also found that multichannel buyers are highly valuable to B-to-C and B-to-B marketers.
B-to-C multichannel buyers represent 67 percent of total repeat buyers with the highest spend and transactions per household. In addition, compared to exclusive retail buyers, multichannel buyers are more active and have higher spend per household, despite lower average sale.

The Second Circuit Court of Appeals rejected billionaire Ira Rennert's plea to reverse a $213 million judgment stemming from the bankruptcy of his magnesium company more than a decade ago, making for a quick payday for litigation-finance firm Burford Group, which injected money into the case late last year.
Rennert and his Renco were ordered to repay creditors of Magnesium Corp. of America more than $100 million he pulled from the company before its bankruptcy in 2001. A jury in 2015 ruled that Rennert's maneuvers represented a fraudulent conveyance, or illegal siphoning of cash from a failing company. With interest, the judgment exceeds $213 million.
After the verdict the Chapter 7 trustee overseeing the estate took the unusual move of auctioning off part of the judgment to recover cash for creditors as Rennert pursued his appeal. Chicago-based Gerchen Keller served as the stalking horse bidder and ultimately won, paying $26.2 million in early September of last year in exchange for rights to the first $50 million of any recovery.
"What the trustee was doing is saying if `I lose at the 2nd Circuit I've guaranteed my creditors $26 million,'" said Travis Lenkner of Burford Capital, the publicly traded litigation-finance firm that bought Gerchen Keller for $175 million last December.
Burford invests in various stages of litigation, from pre-trial practice to post-judgment collection. The investment in the Renco litigation was less risky than some because Rennert was required to post bond for the full judgment amount before his appeal.
Rennert argued he should have been able to refuse a jury trial after the case was moved from bankruptcy court to district court, and that the verdict was internally inconsistent because the jury found he'd fraudulently transferred assets but MagCorp was still solvent.
The Second Circuit rejected those and other arguments. Rennert can still request an en banc appeal before the full court, and if that fails, Supreme Court review. Those maneuvers can only consume another year under normal circumstances, Lenkner said, however.
"He's not going to wriggle free of this if the judgment ultimately stands," he said.
The son of a Polish immigrant mother, Rennert was accused of using the proceeds from MagCorp to build a 43,000-square-foot mansion in the Hamptons that is appraised at over $200 million.

Nearly 1350 votes were received with 'Woorim Beach' chosen as the winner for the Woorim tower with 56.74% of the vote.
'Another world's paradise' has taken out the vote for the Bongaree tower, beating 'An afternoon with Dad' by less than 1%!
Unitywater Community Relations Specialist Kate Cash said they hadn't seen such a close vote in the history of Unitywater's Community Artwork Program.
"The votes for the two Bribie Island towers have been so close, it goes to show that the designs really resonated with the community on Bribie Island," Ms Cash said.
"Our Community Artwork Program is exactly that – community-driven artworks that improve the appearance of our highly visible assets in consultation with, and with the opinions of, the local community.
"The designs were developed in response to the most popular themes generated by local residents and business operators through a community survey last year.
"We've undertaken an exhaustive community consultation process in which our artists spent time talking to locals to learn more about what makes Bribie Island such a special place to live.
"We'd like to thank those who have participated from the initial consultation process through to the voting. They have been instrumental in this project."
Not-for-profit art agency SAMA (Street Art Murals Australia), whose artists Scott Nagy and Mike Shankster created the concepts, will bring the towers to life.
"Woorim Beach reflects Bribie Island's beach culture and the families that have chosen Bribie Island as their home, celebrating the community connectedness that is so unique to Bribie Island," Mr Nagy said.
Mr Shankster said the winning Bongaree concept provided a glimpse into what lies beneath the water's surface in the waterways surrounding Bongaree.
"Another world's paradise depicts the turtles that return to Bribie Island each year and feed on the lush seagrass," he said.
Painting will commence in March, weather permitting.

Hi im Gabi, i am a New business. I had a customer ask me to make her this cake. A n 12" and an 8" round cake, flavor French vanilla and pink velvet. On the bottom green fondant and pink on top. I have to create baby fondant booties and a bow around the cake with white poke a dots at the top and a fence at the bottom. Is $140 to much? How much should I charge?
What is your business pricing? My base buttercream cakes, that would not include any thing but a basic buttercream decoration and my base cake flavors would run a bit more than that for a 12" and 8" stacked cake. Granted, I run a preservative/artificial free bakery. Never the less, it sounds a bit low. But then, you know your areas well. At your suggested price, that equates to about $1.66 a serving for about 84 servings based upon the standard 1x2x4 slicing price for that in round cake sizes.
Hi Gabi. You really need to to research and set your pricing BEFORE taking any orders. You are not making any money @ less than $2/serving. You are way undercharging.
To me, that is low, especially with the fondant shoes and bow, and fence. How are you operating a business without having your pricing already in place?
Yeah, that's rather low. For a standard buttercream cake I would charge $200 and for fondant would be $280 not including extra for custom detailing. It's all demographic, when it comes to pricing. We area we are currently in is a lower demographic and my prices are around the same as other cottage food bakers in this area.
8" serves 24
12" serves 54
X $4 for fondant covered cake
Hi Gabi,
Congratulations on your new business!
Yes, you should have some sort of pricing in place before you take orders. When I started I did some research to see what other custom bakeries were charging in my area. Since I was new at the time I started a bit lower with cakes starting at $3 per serving and up but now after 7 years I have a $200.00 minimum order and start at $5 per serving and up. Good luck in your new business!
Here is where i have come to, as i am just setting my pricing etc. for my cakes (its pretty build your own). I also charge an extra $0.25 per slice for each additional tier (to cover doweling etc.)
before i go to this chart (which is actually part of a larger form), i start by asking what their budget is, and how many servings they need. This right away lets me know (on average) how much $ per serving i have wiggle room with, to help their dream come true!
I also ask my clients to bring me pictures of what they like would like to see. and also how many tiers. Say my client wants a tall cake that serves 15, with masculine features on it - and she has shown me a cake with a woodgrain pattern printed on white fondant, and a dark textured bow on the top with a happy birthday gift tag for her dad. she also tells me he loves lemon, but doesnt want it to be lemon everything. my basic chart would look like follows : I automatically know she only needs one tier, and a tall 6" can be cut into (up to) 24 slices at 1"x1" without them really losing out on cake. When i deliver the cake, i will have a cutting chart diagrammed for 16 people.
I am sure my charts will change as my options grow - but im trying to keep it pretty basic to start. (my imbedded chart didnt work out.. i have uploaded a file to google drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2mwyKa7TITlSHVYazhMbUk4ckRpWmVQUm15ZnlQdC1qRG4w/view?usp=sharing
These are the options for the cake i described above:
x Round
x 6"
White $2.00
Cake Flavour x Yes ($0.25)
Filling x Choice ($0.50) Lemon Raspberry Curd
x Ganache
($0.50) Dark ☐ Milk ☐ White x
x Choice ($0.25)
Sub Total - $3.50
Height x Tall 6"+ (x1.5)
Tier 1 Total Per Serving - $5.25
This Cake Size Serves (1"x1.5" servings) 16
Tier Total $84.00
I would also charge if they wanted a fancy cake board(10$+),and for the custom made bow and gift tag($5-$10),
My total would come to 90-125 depending on the extras we had decided on. delivery would be included (within reason)
does this seem appropriate to people here?
Wow, you've really done your homework. There really is no "appropriate" way to figure your price. Whatever works for you and gets you paid is appropriate. We all have different processes.
For me, personally, that's too much work and thinking. I have a much more simpler and streamlined way of pricing so I don't have to add every little thing in. That just works for me.
The only suggestion I would have, is to not let your clients in on the process. Clients will get frustrated if they think every little thing they want ups the price.
Your idea of asking for a budget 1st is great :)
Good luck to you!!
Wait so you charge 200 for a basic buttercream cake how many layers or tiers seems a bit high
i want to start doing basic cakes 6 7 8 and 9 inch no tiers maybe two layers with filling and I wouldn't chArge 200
my cupcakes go for 20-30 a dozen
and my cake pops 1.50 a pop

Yep…that's me.
I am Steph. I love photography, my family, white wine and fabulous shoes, not always in that order.
I am a talker. And a hugger. A maker of weird faces (obviously….see above) And a crier. Sometimes being a part of your special moments will bring me to tears. It is OKAY…I can still see!
So, now that we have met, here are ten random facts about me…
1. I am a mother of five children: Noah, Emma, Aidan, Owen and Ava. The oldest is 12 and they are all 23 months apart after that.
2. My son, Aidan, is autistic. I am passionate about autism awareness. But it also means that whatever your sweet little ones dish out, I have experienced much, much worse. No need to apologize…I am fine waiting a few and letting them blow off some steam. If it still isn't working, we reschedule. 'Easy Peasy, Lemon squeezy' as my kid says.
3. Pink is my favorite color.
4. I went to an all women's school to be a teacher. Before that I seriously considered being a nun.
5. I am mentally writing a book and I also blog about life with five kids at http://www.higginsmcfarlandfamily.blogspot.com. My mental book has not been put to paper yet because I am not sure which direction I will go with it. It will either be a from the heart Mommy memoir or an entertaining book with recipes and party theme/decor ideas.
6. I am a fabulous cook and baker, but my cakes are always crooked. I make everything from scratch, from bread to bagels to donuts!
7. I am a runner only because I actually love to run. My weight factors in there somewhere, but mostly it is the amazing feeling when you feel your stride open up and your lungs heaving in air and you literally feel your stress melt away. Best feeling ever that more than justifies the agony of actually putting on your shoes.
8. I cannot speak without my hands waving all around. It is amusing to watch sometimes, I am sure.
9. When I was a little girl, I used to pretend that I was a photographer. I had a 110 camera…hahaha…remember those? I would pretend I was taking pictures of the Bangles (hahaha….remember them?!)
10. I have a soft spot for the underdog. I always want the ugliest Christmas tree because I feel sorry for it. Rickety furniture whispers seductively from antique stores (and often finds its way into my car). I love old toys because I love to imagine the stories they could tell. I love old books with strangers' writing in it. And if I happen to find a stash of old note-cards or an old bank ledger? SCORE. Which probably explains why I love photography so much…I love the preservation of what once was.
So, enough about me…tell me something fabulous about YOU. And follow my blog while you're at it! (Click on "follow" on the right side of this page)
I will be choosing one reader at random to give away a $25 starbucks gift card. Winner must "like" me on facebook, follow my blog AND leave a comment below. So go ahead…tell me something about yourself! Make it juicy!

Science Update - Puberty and Death
Interview with
Bob - This week for the Naked Scientists, we're going to talk about puberty and death. I'm going to talk about why seemingly trivial problems can send teens into rage or depression, but first, Chelsea's going to tell us why a computer may someday make some of your toughest decisions for you.Chelsea - Computers could someday make end-of-life decisions for people who can't communicate and haven't left any record of their wishes. Bioethicist David Wendler of the National Institutes of Health says the program predicts what medical care people would want based on the preferences of similar people. Even with just a little data, the program guesses with the same accuracy as family members--just about 70 percent. Wendler says more data could up that to 90 percent.David Wendler (National Institutes of Health): So basically what our findings show is that I can do a better job at predicting your end-of-life treatment preferences by looking at the preferences of people who are like you in similar ways (age, gender, race, religion, etc.) than I can by asking your wife of 40 years.Chelsea - Why that is, and how that wife would feel about letting a computer decide her husband's fate, still aren't known. Bob - Thanks, Chelsea. Teenagers are known for extreme mood swings, generally blamed on hormones. Now, scientists may have figured out why. Neuropharmocologist Sheryl Smith at the State University of New York Downstate Medical Center explains that during stress, the body releases a chemical called THP that causes a tranquilizing effect on nerve cells in the brain's emotion center. Sheryl Smith (SUNY Downstate Medical Center): And so it will allow you to adapt a bit to the stress, to not feel as freaked out, and calm down a little and be able to handle the stress.Bob - But in young mice, she found that hormones during puberty alter these brain cells, so when THP reaches them, instead of triggering a calming effect, they trigger extreme anxiety. If the mouse model holds true for people, it's easy to see why stress that seems mild to adults could lead to extreme anxiety in young teens.Chelsea - Thanks, Bob. Next time we'll bring you more stories from the land where overreaction is a way of life. Until then, I'm Chelsea Wald...Bob - And I'm Bob Hirshon, for AAAS, The Science Society. Back to you, Naked Scientists!

Hodgkin's Disease
Hodgkin's disease, also called Hodgkin lymphoma, is a type of cancer that starts with the white blood cells. The white blood cells in your body are called lymphocyte and are an important part of your immune system. There are two types of lymphomas (cancers) including Hodgkin's disease and Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. They are named after Dr. Thomas Hodgkin who recognized the disease in 1832. The two types of lymphomas differ in just about every way including their cause, how they behave, complications, speed, and treatment response times. By looking at the cells under a microscope, doctors are able to determine which type of lymphoma they're dealing with.
Causes of Hodgkin's Disease
Hodgkin's disease can occur in any part of the body where lymphoid tissue exists meaning it can start just about anywhere. It is most common in the lymph nodes in the upper part of the body such as in the neck, chest, or under the arms. There is no known cause of Hodgkin's disease, though researchers have narrowed it down to some risk factors. One risk factor is age, with people between 15 and 40 being at a higher risk of getting the disease. It is slightly more common in males and geographically, is seen more in Canada, the United States, and northern Europe than other countries. If you have a sibling with Hodgkin's, you are at a higher risk for the disease. There is also an increased risk for Hodgkin's disease if you have HIV or AIDS.
Types of Hodgkin's Disease
There are two types of Hodgkin's disease; classic and nodular lymphocyte predominant. Classic is the most common, accounting for approximately 95% of all Hodgkin's disease cases. Nodular sclerosis Hodgkin's disease is rarer, accounting for only about 5% of the Hodgkin's disease cases. It can occur at any age though it is more common among men. It involves lymph node sin the arm and neck. The risk factors for this type are the same as most cancers such as smoking or exposure to sunlight.
Symptoms of Hodgkin's Disease
The main symptoms for this disease are swollen or tender lymph nodes under your skin, particularly in the groin, side of the neck, or in the arm pit. Additional symptoms of Hodgkin's disease include a fever that doesn't go away, unexplained weight loss, severe and constant itching, and night sweats that require changing your clothing or bedding. Treating Hodgkin's lymphoma requires a combination of treatments including medication therapy, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy as with most cancers.

July 1, 2007 (AFP) – Gunmen have shot dead two civilians in Sri Lanka's northern Jaffna peninsula, officials said Sunday as the government and Tamil Tigers blamed each other for the latest in a string of such killings. The men were murdered Saturday in two separate incidents on the government-controlled peninsula, situated at the northern tip of Sri Lanka but cut off from the rest of the island by Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) territory.
"The two civilians were shot dead by the suspected LTTE assassins in separate incidents in the Jaffna peninsula during the last 24 hours," the defence ministry in Colombo said.
The pro-rebel Tamilnet.com website, however, said it was the work of military intelligence operatives.
"Informed Jaffna sources said that the terror campaign has been stepped up by military intelligence operatives following a Claymore attack in Navanthurai where a military intelligence official was reportedly killed," Tamilnet said.
Amnesty International has reported that during the past year more than 1,000 people are believed to have been "disappeared" and the same number had been unlawfully killed across the island.
Sri Lanka's government has come under increasing pressure o

Three GCC countries are looking to find ways to support Jordan out of its economic crisis, the Saudi Royal Court said in a statement early on Saturday.
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Jordan will hold a summit in Makkah on Sunday to discuss means of supporting the kingdom to overcome its current financial hardship.
"The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, within the context of his interest of the situation in the Arab nation and his keenness on its security and stability, has been following up the economic crisis in Jordan," the Saudi Royal Court statement said.
"King Salman has made telephone calls to King Abdullah II of Jordan, Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmad Al Sabah, the Emir of Kuwait, and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces. They agreed to hold a meeting comprising the four countries in Makkah on Sunday, to discuss means of supporting Jordan to overcome its current crisis."
The economic situation in Jordan has worsened more than ever before in recent years. In an effort to solve this problem, the government planned to raise taxes and introduce an Income Tax Bill (ITB). The bill was met with a mass one-day strike that launched a series of protests across the country, which ended up with appointing a new Prime Minister and rescinding the ITB.
