Turmeric and Other Remedies for Painful Boils
If you've ever had a boil anywhere on your body, you know how painful these suckers can be.
You can take antibiotics to get rid of the infection, but sometimes going the natural route is much more effective, especially when the bacteria has for some reason grown resistant to regular antibiotics (which is happening more and more often).
Turmeric is an extremely effective cure for boils and is found to work well when all other methods fail.
There are two ways to use turmeric to cure boils.
Method 1: Eat it, or drink it. Simple enough, but most of us might have trouble swallowing raw turmeric. So do what suits you.
Some suggestions include adding the turmeric to:
– water
– tea
– chocolate milk
If you're able to cook, add it to some:
– broth
– vegetable/chicken/beef soup
Whatever method you choose to take the turmeric, the dose is 1-2 teaspoons of turmeric powder three times a day, and more if you can take it.
Combine turmeric with good fats and fresh ground black pepper. To increase turmeric absorption, combine it with any good cold-pressed oils or fats (such as almond oil, coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, flaxseed oil, sesame oil or grapeseed oil). Black pepper added to turmeric has also been proven to increase the bioavailability of turmeric. (Commenter Paul recommends combining turmeric with Ghee or the butter fat in creamer)
Method 2: Apply turmeric paste over the boil. You can either use water or milk to make the thick paste. Keep it covered with a bandage. (Be prepared to see a temporary yellow tinge on your skin from the turmeric, though! This will fade in a couple of weeks, and I think its a small price to pay for getting rid of the boil.)
Although there's two popular methods here, I would recommend using both at the same time.
This way you're attacking the infected boil internally, by cleaning your body and skin of infection, and even more importantly, preventing the boil from re-infecting the surrounding skin (one boil can sometimes spread to more, or recur after some time elsewhere).
And the turmeric that's applied externally would hasten the drainage of the boil.
Why turmeric works
Turmeric contains curcumin, which has antitumor, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Curcumin is a remarkable substance that scientists have studied for its abilities to fight cancer. Turmeric's powerful blood cleansing properties also helps it to successfully cure resistant MRSA infections when antibiotics have failed.

Alternative methods to curing boils submitted by commenters
- Turmeric and Honey
Henrietta successfully drained her boil with a honey and turmeric paste left on overnight.
She wrote, "It works: I had a strange boil for over 4 weeks, it kept getting bigger until I couldn't take it anymore and decided to take action. I'm seeing my doctor Monday but on Friday I started applying Hydrocortisone cream…with no effect. Then, Saturday night, I made a topical paste of honey and turmeric, left it on overnight with gauze bandages…in the morning, I felt that the boil was smaller, and when I looked under the gauze–it was a miracle! The boil had started to drain! Definitely a very effective home remedy. Strongly recommended."
- Boil Ease or Draw Out Salve (commercial product)
Nik used Boil Ease which made his boil recede in 3 days (it costs about $10 and can be bought over-the-counter at CVS, Rite Aid, Eckard in the First Aid section).
He wrote, "Anyone who is affected by LARGE, PAINFUL boils please try BOIL EASE or DRAW OUT SALVE. This is a true story. I am in no way affiliated to this company. Boils and their treatment have a special place in my heart because I have had many, many, many large and painful boils… too many to even count. I've visited 5 different doctors, have a lot of medical bills from them draining my boils at the hospital, thought I had MRSA… overall, very bad experience. Like everyone said about antibiotic abuse, my doctor would refill my antibiotic Rx without me even seeing her EVERY MONTH! that's how often I got them. Long story short, a friend told me that her doctor recommended BOIL EASE, an over the counter ointment that can be bought at CVS, Rite Aid, Eckard… in the FIRST AID section (i couldn't find it at first). I bought it, used it, my boil was HUGE and it did take a while but it went away in about a week and hasn't returned. when i get boils now, as soon as i notice them, i put Boil Ease on and it goes away in 3 days. Def. try it! It's only 10 dollars, they have the cheaper version DRAW OUT SALVE for like 7 dollars. Try it… from someone who has been suffering with this for almost 7 years, you WONT REGRET IT! I feel like I need to pass this information on because I didn't know about it and now I wish I didn't have scars from being operated on for NO REASON!! I wish i had known about this and I hope you all pass this information on as well."
- Potato or Peach Tree Leaves
Sheila shared her father's remedy of using a scraped potato or peach tree leaves.
She wrote, "When i was a kid my dad would scrape a potato and wrap it in a gauze and apply it to boils and stys to draw out the infection, it works and if in the right season peach tree leaves poltice is another good source."
- Pepper leaf
Ruth Brown, a missionary in Nicaragua, said she had many problems with boils. She says, "the Nicaraguans taught me to put a pepper leaf on the boil that they picked off of their pepper tree. It worked better than anything I could have bought. Unfortunately, when I am in the States or elsewhere, I don't have access to pepper trees or their leaves."
Julie McKenzie also wrote about using pepper leaf for boils, "When I was a little girl back in the 1950s my mother always put Mecca Ointment and a pepper leaf on a band-aid and applied it to any boil I broke out with. It always worked and the boils went away."
- Tea Tree Oil and Spirits of Camphor
Sage mentions putting tea tree oil and camphor on boils.
She wrote, "Topically, I use Tea Tree Oil and Spirits of Camphor for boils and had great results also."
- Salt Pork
Little Lee had good results treating a boil that was across an armpit with salt pork. The salt pork relieved the soreness immediately and led the boil to drain. His boil was cured after two days and has not recurred even after 6 months.
He wrote, "I had a boil that ran all the way across my armpit. It was so red and swollen I couldn't lay on either side to sleep. Antibiotics and warm compresses didn't help. I remembered an old remedy. I bought a slab of salt pork, cut off a hunk and stuck it on the boil. Immediately almost all the soreness was gone and in five minutes there was a horrid smell. The boil was draining! It took about two days but it is gone. Thank goodness! I haven't tried anything else but I will keep it in mind."
Little Lee also mentions that he is a diabetic in a 2nd comment that said, "By the way, I am diabetic also. The boil hasn't come back and that was about 6 months ago. May not work for someone else but for me it was the cure!"
Salt pork poultice is an old remedy. The fat and salt content of salt pork help to bring boils to a head.
- Banana Peel
Ashley described her success at using banana peels on her boyfriend's boil on another article (Banana Peels Works on Warts).
She wrote, "banana peels work great on boils. my boyfriend had a big nasty paintful boil on his butt and i put a banana peel on it for 10 minutes because it stung and itched right away. the next morning it was almost completely drained and totally pain free."
Special Medical Conditions
- Kidney transplant patients
Vicky asked if turmeric is safe for kidney transplant patients such as herself.
She wrote, "I am a kidney transplant patient and have suffer from boil for quite sometimes. Is tumeric powder is safe for me to take?"
My answer was:
Hi Vicky, turmeric seems to be okay and may even be beneficial for kidney transplant patients. However, its still best if you clear it with your doctor first.
Below are some extracts from the web. You can click on the links to read the original text in full.
From cancer.org
"One small study of curcumin (edit: curcumin is found in turmeric), along with another antioxidant called quercetin, was done in adults who received kidney transplants. Those who received the combination in high dosages had fewer transplant rejections than those who received lower doses or placebo. More studies are needed to find out if this holds true. Curcumin may also promote the emptying of the gallbladder, but again, more human studies are needed."From drugdigest.com
"In addition to their anticancer effects, antioxidants in turmeric may protect the brain, kidneys, and liver from damage by alcohol, drugs, radiation, heavy metals such as lead, or chemicals such as dry cleaning fluid."From tcwellness.com
"Studies on diabetes induced kidney disease show promising indications that cucurmin inhibited the progression of damage. Lesions of the kidneys were reduced and the kidneys continued functioning well with a .05 percent turmeric diet."————–
- Turmeric for pregnant women
Catherine asked if turmeric is safe to eat during pregnancy.
She wrote, "my grandaughter has several under her arm she can not take script because of pregancy is this safe?"
My answer to her was this:
Hi Catherine, I found contradicting views when checking on whether or not turmeric is safe for pregnant women.
On one hand, turmeric is used in so many Indian dishes that many Indians ingest turmeric everyday.
On the other hand, I also found a quote that mentions how turmeric cannot be recommended during pregnancy or breast-feeding in large amounts (greater than what is normally found in food) as turmeric may stimulate contractions of the uterus and may alter menstrual periods.
To give you an idea of how much is in "foods" – in most Indian dishes, very little turmeric is actually added (usually a pinch or half a teaspoon). But so little an amount may not have much of an effect to clear your daughter's boils.
You can go to this page to read up more on using turmeric. There are many user accounts of it.
But I can't tell you for sure whether or not it is safe for your daughter to take turmeric as I don't know myself. Perhaps its better to err on the side of caution and at least wait until she has given birth and stopped breastfeeding?
In summary, small amounts of turmeric like those used in cooking appear to be safe but larger amounts is not advisable as not much is known about the effects to the mother and infant.
More information about turmeric and pregnancy can be found on external sites: here and here (the second is a forum where some Indian ladies share their experiences with pregnancy and eating turmeric)
Other comments
- Diet can affect the incidence of boils
Sage wrote, "I must agree with Henrietta's statement about the importance of changing and improving your diet. Most of my issues with boils have occurred after consuming candy, cake and other sugary sweet baked goods. Dealing with abscesses too was unbearable until I totally removed soda pop from my diet, thus eliminating the abscesses. I also use turmeric (thanks to Earthclinic.com) and Black Seed Oil with plain yogurt when I have a problem. In the past I drank Turmeric with tea, but constipation sometimes resulted. So now, I mix 1 tsp of Turmeric, 1/2 tsp of Black Seed Oil with a half cup of yogurt and it has worked wonders. In addition to turmeric, I also drink Burdock and Echinacea with Goldenseal teas to help strengthen my immune system. Topically, I use Tea Tree Oil and Spirits of Camphor for boils and had great results also."
Cindy permalinkJanuary 2, 2013
Hello, my son of 7yrs has had abcess and was diagnosed with MRSA which is the bacteria that is difficult to kill off with antibiotics. I also read on another site that garlic is very good for MRSA, boils, abcess. U can eat it everyday, which of course is too difficult for me to impose on my son but it also says that the lady used it in baths. She crushes 6-8 garlic cloves leaves them out for about 30 mins. And then puts them in the bath. I bathe my son in it when I notice any kind of sign of a red blotch. And he hasn't had anymore breakouts. I just bought turmeric just in case because I have my 18yr old brother who has had reoccurring boils. He has also tried the garlic bathe and hasn't had break outs.
Anonymous permalinkApril 22, 2013
My daughter had a painful boil that of course just kept getting worse. After her complaining for 3 days i found this site and tried the turmeric paste (just mixed with water). I applied it before she went to bed and covered it with a bandaid. In the morning it had completely come to a head and burst. All pain was gone! It was a miracle remedy in my opinion! Of course, it does leave your skin with a yellow tinge of color and the smell is somewhat offensive but nonetheless the best remedy we have ever tried. Thanks so much!
Jess permalinkApril 25, 2013
I'm really happy it helped your daughter as well, that can be a painful experience for a child… I have been on turmeric for about a year now and I am down to 2 capsules a day with no reoccurring boils. I just hope they continue to stay recessive. I wish it was something out there that could just get rid of them though.
cathy permalinkMay 9, 2013
my daughter suffers with very painful boils. she developed one yesterday that was very painful. she made the turmeric and water paste and applied it to the boil and within 3 hours the boil drained.
Rick permalinkMay 16, 2013
I have noticed 2 boils under my arms over night, I have never had these before but I am going to try the tumeric paste and I will let you know how it works for me….also should I start taking it on a daily basis becuase of this and its just good for you?? I was thinking about it.
Ron permalinkJuly 8, 2013
I have had hidrodenitis for some time now, and all the remedies the doctor's have recommended, i.e. surgery, antibiotics, vitamin c and hot compression wraps never worked as well as this turmeric paste. I must say, I applied turmeric to an extremely painful boil under my arm and the boil went from excruciating pain from the pressure on a nerve ending to starting to drain in about 2 hours. I'm thinking about supplementing my diet with turmeric after reading all of it's anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-boil properties. It's a wonder drug for sure!
Lindsey permalinkAugust 7, 2013
Any suggestions for helping heal an abscess that was drained by a doctor? It was drained about 5 weeks ago. It is done draining but the incision has not healed and is still slightly painful. Is Turmeric powder ok in this situation?
Ron permalinkAugust 9, 2013
Don't let them operate on it. you'll be left with a huge scar and the boil still may come back. it's good that it drained. it will heal over time but it'll never be as strong as the original "babyskin" it replaced. My advice: let it heal naturally and if the scar tissue breaks to allow for draining then that's all the better. draining is good. Ron.
David permalinkAugust 10, 2013
Lindsey, I use vitamin E oil on my cuts and scrapes. It works wonders. It may help heal your incision. Apparently this works by sealing the wound from the air which allows it to heal. This is the same reason in ancient times there were temples where people with wounds that wouldn't heal could go and dogs would lick their wounds which helped them heal. If you have every tried to wash a dish after letting your pet dog eat out of it you probably know it takes at least three times washing it before it feels "squeaky clean". This shows just how viscous their saliva is which reveals why this ancient method worked as it was a persistent and powerful sealant against the air.
I think I stay with the vitamin E oil.
Anna permalinkOctober 26, 2013
I have try everything and nothing work until I got Turmeric powder. With in 1 day it bust right open and began to drain like crazy. I had a little pain after the first dose,but then it stop. I took 1 teaspoon with a half glass of almond milk and a little bit of black pepper 3x the first day than I made a paste with Turmeric power with olive oil and tea tree oil. And the next morning it was draining.

I Could Not Have Chosen a Better Doctor to Help Me Rebuild my Body and my Life - Coral Gables, FL
Posted by KeyzKaren
After double mastectomies, this man and his staff were so compassionate as they worked to put me back together. I drove from Key West to his office nearly every two weeks for months for the expansion therapy I needed to rebuild. Even if I was early, they always saw me when I got there, rather than making me wait for my appointment. They totally worked with my schedule and my desires were always considered. His staff are friendly and helpful--I especially loved his nurse. She is like your favorite auntie! (in a professional way) When I had complications, Dr. R was willing and able to review my situation utilizing email and digital images, rather than making me drive up to be seen. His office embraces the technologies available!

I had previously had lip trauma fixed with Dr. R and had a great experience; therefore, it was a natural fit to work with Dr. R again when I decided on breast augmentation. As expected, his patient care was impeccable and my results are absolutely incredible. I truly recommend!!

Dr. R has an energy about him that immediately put me at ease and made me comfortable. I learned that he has had a very long career in the medical field with experience working with severe burn victims. He is a total perfectionist which I really appreciate because I am too. I never felt rushed in his office or that I was just another patient, he always took his time and was very personable, talking with me and really listening to all my concerns and visions. I felt completely comfortable getting all my procedures done with him and I have recommended several friends that feel the same way.

My experience at Dr. R's office has been the best experience I have ever had at any doctor's office. He takes great care with everything he does. He informed me of everything I needed or wanted to know about the procedures, answered all my questions I had about everything, took extra care to make sure I was comfortable at all times, and he did a truly great job. He is also very caring, as is the entire staff. Everyone there always made me feel very welcome, not just like another patient, but greeted me personally as well. I would definitely say that Dr. R goes above and beyond in his care for patients.

I have been a patient of Dr. R for over five years. If you are seeking a board certified plastic surgeon with an excellent track record, look no further. Dr. R is a master at defying the aging process with facial fillers and botox. The time he spends perfecting this art with his patients is due to the love of his profession. It is rare to find a plastic surgeon today who not only produces enviable results but also holds his patient's satisfaction in the highest regard.

He was very polite and knowledgeable. His staff was kind and informative. He performed my surgery just days later and the results were outstanding. I love my new look. everybody pays attention to my eyes not my nose as before the surgery. All his recommendations were right. My nose looks very natural. I recommend him to anyone as a plastic surgeon. With Dr. roudner i know if i ever need anything he will be right on the phone to help me...

The staff from the moment walked in was so sweet and it felt like home and everyone including the doctor treated me like family. Dr. Tal Roudner was the very first doctor I ever went to for my breast augmentation consultation and once I met him and felt so good in his office I knew I didn't have to go anywhere else. The day of operation everything went smoothly and I wasn't even nervous knowing I was in good hands and then each question I had he would personally answer and I would see him each week and everyone was there during my healing process and now it has finally made 6 weeks and I couldn't be any happier with how my breast look and feel.

Research through internet, reading reviews and searching American Medical Board websites. Being that I was coming to see Dr. Roudner from out of town for my breast augmentation and lift, I had all my consultations over the phone. From my first conversation with him he made me feel so comfortable and sure that I made the right choice going to him. He was thorough with his recommendations, he listened to what I wanted to achieve and provided me with all the options. I told him I wanted a natural look and that is exactly what I got and am very happy. His staff was extremely nice and helpful throughout my entire stay, I even received followup phone calls at my hotel before I left for home. I am completely satisfied with my results and would recommend him to anybody.

The Surgeon-sculptor: Dr.Tal Roudner - Coral Gables, FL
Posted by Michelle G.
I am extremely pleased with my breast surgery done by Dr. Tal Roudner. He is a one of a kind plastic surgeon: with such a mastery over human aesthetics and plastic surgery practice as well as his team, my experience with him couldn't have been even better! I met Dr. Roudner because of an acquaintance. I've always dreamed about enhancing my breasts, and I always glanced with envy those from Renaissance sculptures (made with such godly harmony). I went to many plastic surgeons from Mexico to Miami before making my decision, but from the moment I stepped in Dr. Roudner's office I knew he was the one! His staff is friendly and very helpful, and Dr. Roudner is always happy and tries to make you feel home in his office. He answers all your doubts and whenever you talk to him you get the sense that he really knows what he's doing. Moreover, his medical skills are backed by tremendous qualifications and board reviews from the most prestigious universities and plastic surgery fellowships around the world, so you can't be in better hands! As for my surgery experience, everything was fine! His medical team ensured that I was comfortable all the time, and when the surgery was over, my post operative time was painless! Even Dr. Roudner himself wants to be sure that you are fine and tries to maintain contact with you to check everything is ok. I am very grateful about my results, and all of it because of Dr. Rounder and his skillful hands. He is not only a terrific plastic surgeon, but also an artist, a sculptor, and now I feel like an alive Venus thanks to him!!!

Overview | Poverty | Lack of Public Assistance | Housing | Natural Disasters
"We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty." (Mother Teresa)
Have you ever wonder why some people have basic necessities while others do not? If you are reading this, you are probably one of the fortunate who has their basic needs met.
If asked about causes of homelessness, people would undoubtedly give varied reasons in which some are contradictory and some even don't make sense at all. Most people are not aware of other realities different than their own and think it is a 'social norm' to have what is needed and a 'social abnormality' to live in the streets.
This section presents facts on the most common causes behind homelessness.

Abstract. "Context " is notoriously vague, and its uses multifarious. Researchers in "contextual vocabulary acquisition" differ over the kinds of context involved in vocabulary learning, and the methods and benefits thereof. This paper presents a computational theory of contextual vocabulary acquisition, identifies the relevant notion of context, exhibits the assumptions behind some classic objections, and defends our theory against these objections. 1 A Computational Theory of Contextual Vocabulary Acquisition Contextual vocabulary acquisition (CVA) is the active, deliberate acquisition of a meaning for a word in a text by reasoning from context, where "context " includes: (1) the reader's "internalization " of the surrounding text, i.e., the reader's "mental model " of the word's "textual context " (or "co-text": Brown & Yule 1983: 46–50, citing Halliday; Haastrup 1991) integrated with (2) the reader's prior knowledge (including (a) the reader's knowledge of language and (b) meaning hypotheses developed by the reader from prior encounters with the word), but it excludes (3) external sources of help such as dictionaries or people. CVA is a process that can be used by a reader to figure out a meaning for an unfamiliar word as it occurs in a passage being read. It is what you do when you come across such a word in your reading, realize that you don't know what it means, and decide that you need to know what it means in order to understand the passage, but there is no one around to ask, and it is not in the dictionary (or you are too lazy to look it up). In such a case, you can try to figure out

Yes, Disney, you have my cash. I ran Goofy in 2010 and Disneyland 1/2 and 5K in 2010. That's a lot of moolah. And memories... January 9th, 2010. Dinsey World 1/2. Dark. Sleet. Why exactly am I here at 3 a.m.? Oh, the mouse said to come, freeze and walk a mile to the start. Hint to spectators - you will not be able to see much at the start of most marathons, and it will be impossible to see anything at this one. Dark... and the spectator areas are set back from the street. January 10, 2010. Disney World Full Marathon. Still dark at 3AM. No sleet, but colder. I think I only had to walk 3/4 mile to start. Frozen bananas. Ice on the road. Hint to Floridians... fine sand on ice makes for a good shuffleboard, but does not improve traction. I just hope the poor guy in front of me at a water stop who slipped and did the splits is healed by now. Ouch. September 4, 2010. Disneyland Family 5K. Ran with my 7-year-old. At the end of this race that had sold out months earlier, no medals. Disappointed kids. Went to expo later (like their piece of paper said to) and still no medals - RunDisney appologized and said they would call back. They never did. Multiple emails and phone calls in later weeks looking for medals. RunDisney folks do not return calls. Finally got medals with an arrogant apology letter. September 5, 2010. Disneyland 1/2. There were 4 miles of great scenery and 9.1 miles of, uh, un-Disney like sights? Nice Coast-to-Coast medal. At least for me. For some of the folks behind me, you were out of luck I hear. All this being said, I still have some great memories running Disney this past year. But even with the Disney markup, I don't feel I got a great value. RunDisney seems like an organization that cares only about money, and as long as people keep going (and they will), RunDisney will be happy with their product.
This was my first marathon, and it lived up to every expectation. Top-notch all the way - so much fun. I was pretty dedicated to hitting a certain time, so I did not take the time to take pictures with characters along the course with the disposable camera that the race gives participants. The camaraderie was great between runners. My family was not able to come, but I found people calling me by name along the course, cheering me on, which really confused me until I realized they were volunteers looking at my name on my bib. What a great touch, and the jester really lifted me up and motivated me. Crossing that line with Minnie Mouse waiting to high-five me... well, let's just say that crossing the line still gives me chills when I think about it. The experience will always be one of the greatest moments in my life.
I came all the way from the 20-degree weather of Boise, Idaho to run in... 20-degree weather in Florida! At least my body was acclimated. There was nothing anyone could do about it, but I guess the extreme cold proves that you can't be ready for EVERYTHING. The most difficult part was having to stand around for an hour before the start. This was a great first marathon for me, because there really aren't a lot of elite marathoners, so being one of the first 300 runners by helped me avoid the long lines at the porta-potties, the ice at the water stations, and the slow runners. If you are a 3:00 to 3:30 marathoner, this is a good race for you because it's a fast Boston Qualifying course that isn't loaded with sub 3-hour runners. I missed qualifying for Boston (by 2 seconds!) mostly because it was my first marathon and I bonked at mile 23, but I have two pieces of advice for those trying to qualify for Boston on this course: 1. If you run with a pace group, keep in mind that the pacer is someone who can pretty much JOG your pace. For example, my pacer decided to run the third mile 30 seconds faster than our race pace and we had to scramble to keep up. Finally, someone nudged him and said, "Aren't we going a little fast?" Then he slowed down. Boy, did I feel that extra 30 seconds later on in the race! I'm not saying that a pacer isn't a good idea, but keep in mind that they are only human (and are probably used to running much faster). 2. Your Garmin/Nike+/pedometer/satellite gizmo is going to measure the race LONGER than the actual course, unless you can figure out how to run an arrow-straight course without swerving to get your water/PowerAde/gel/banana/candy or to pass or to avoid the slick spot on the road. I sure wish someone would have told me that before the race! My mistake was letting my Garmin give me mile splits automatically instead of manually hitting the "lap" button at every official mile marker. I learned that I ran at least an extra quarter-mile from all of the back-and-forth on the course. All in all, it was a great time. My kids loved the kids' races, and I got a great picture of me high-fiving the duck at the end. What a great experience. It will take me a few years to save the pennies up to do it again, but I will do it again!
I loved this race. I didn't even need my iPod because the course was so fun. I will be back.
I am a Disney fan and have participated in several Disney races - including 2 marathon weekends. You really are paying for the Disney experience (boy do you pay!). For fans, being able to run behind the scenes and through the parks is the biggest benefit. For pure competitive runners, this is probably not the best experience, as it does draw many first-timers (for obvious reasons) and is very crowded. I wish there were more instructions for first-timers on how to seed themselves in a corral. Many still work on the assumption that being in the front is always best. This is what leads to lines of walkers creating traffic jams (by the way, I am certainly not against walkers). This is one race where being at the back of the pack has advantages. Neglecting the obvious issue of weather this year, I'd say this is a fun race. The one issue that upset me terribly was the ridiculously long wait for transportation back to the resort hotels. This was not organized well at all. Considering the conditions (which I don't believe were totally unexpected), Disney should have made arrangements to move people more effectively. Transportation TO the start was fine. They should also extend the possibility of later checkouts (even at a small extra cost) for those who must depart Sunday after the race. Another plus is that the parks were not quite as crowded as you might expect. I will return because I am interested more in the Disney experience rather than qualifying for big races or setting PR's. Ultimately, this race is what you make of it.
It was my first marathon. I love Disney. Unfortunately I ended up with horrible bronchitis and was sick the whole vacation and for a few weeks afterward. It was icy at the water stations, both on the ground and in the drinks. The bananas were frozen too. They ran out of candy by the time the candy stop came (but I am slow, so I was at the back). All of this I can ignore. It was, after all, 26.2 degrees at the start (no joke, really it was). What I am irritated with was the Runner's Retreat. We paid extra for this because it was supposed to have its own changing area and bathrooms, and it was supposed to be heated. It was NOT heated. We may have had shelter from the wind, but we did NOT have heat. I believe I found the changing area, but that was not heated either. With the amount we paid for it ($100 each), it should have been more. That being said, after reading what others wrote who did not have it, I'm glad I had what little I did. One thing that was supposed to be good was the support for family. My in-laws had a hard time and there was lack of direction. They finally gave up and just went to the Runner's Retreat until our expected finish time. I will do it again, but that has NOTHING to do with the race. I love Disney and will use any excuse to go more. The discount we get from the race was worse than the discount I switched to for the public. Spectators and staff were really encouraging on the course. Seeing the characters was AWESOME!!!! Running through the parks was way cool. Wish we looped through them more. Oh well.
The coarse is OK, and running through the parks is enjoyable, but there are a lot of back roads in between the parks. The race is the MOST expensive one I have seen so far. And it is the only organization (I've seen) that does not allow transfers or refund for injuries. They also do not let you transfer the entry few towards next year. The fee is ridiculous for running and you don't even get discounts for park tickets. NOT WORTH IT.
I know from past work that the mere mention of 'Disney' brings a smile to people's faces. But let's get real, folks. Disney treats these races a a pure profit-making activity. There is SOOOO much more they could have done to make the race more comfortable despite the cold. The water stops were treacherous, I know several people personally that fell and were injured. Why? Disney got caught with their pants down. The only thing they could think to do was put beach sand down. Ever play that shuffleboard or bowling game with the metal puck in a bar? Remember the resin you put down? That's what the sand did. The most egregious lack of concern was post-race. Both days, there was nowhere for runners to gain temporary shelter from the freezing temps and wind to change out of their wet clothes. My friend got Stage 1 hypothermia after the half, it was my turn after the full. I learned later there was a warming tent, for an extra charge of course, but I didn't see any indications of where it was. And can someone explain why they made us walk 15 minutes to the monorail entrance, while the trams sat idle? How much does a tram driver make? And THEN made us pass through Epcot's bag check security to get on? I understand the lines got to be 90 minutes, with no shelter from the cold and wind. Heck, they even had the nerve to still be charging for coffee and hot chocolate! The next day, they announce a price increase for 2011. If the lack of preparedness had been in Chicago 2007, we all would have been outraged. Oh, wait, we were! :) Well, same thing here. No, Disney couldn't control the weather. But they did control how many of my $275 they put in their pocket. On a weekend like we had, it's time to buck up and say, 'OK, this year's going to be a little less profitable' to protect the brand. They didn't, and based on the glowing reviews I'm seeing, it seems you're willing to let them skate.
I have participated in Marathon Weekend since 2006 - 2006 was awesome because it was my first Disney Half; 2007 was great too, since I ran my first full marathon; 2008 was so crowded; andI didn't run in 2009 because of the crowds. I ran this year's half in Disney (2010), and I think there are just too many walkers and picture-takers. It was like "bumper cars" the entire run. Maybe it was the weather - 29 degrees with snow, ice and rain, plus 25 layers of clothing - that slowed people down, but, I don't think I will run next year 2011! I was very frustrated with my finish time. It was so crowded!! They should have a walkathon!
I loved this race. My only complaint was the cold weather and there is nothing the organizers can do about that. Lots of stuff was going on, there were great aid stations, the organization was fantastic, and everything was typical Disney. When I was having a hard time at about mile 24, there were great spectators cheering me on by by name.

Readers Ask: Dear Lucky About the Visible Bra Trend
Q: Yesterday at Marie Robinson Salon, the office manager was wearing a white T-shirt with a clearly-meant-to-be-seen black bra underneath. The deliberately contrasting, deliberately visible bra used to be a fashion "mistake" but now seems to be mainstreaming. Can I wear this to work? How can I do it so I don't look like I got dressed in the dark? Is this just for hipsters?
A: Not just for hipsters! Also not for a job interview or jury summations! But then, you wouldn't be wearing a white T-shirt for such a situation anyway, would you? Unless you're in a super-creative field (e.g., you're a haircolorist like Marie Robinson!), save this cute, generally flattering and genuinely fun trend for the weekend (not the weekend you meet your prospective in-laws). I myself love a neon color—one I wouldn't wear as a whole shirt, but one that spices up an otherwise dull outfit considerably. Black doesn't thrill me as much, but I'm sure I could be persuaded ...

A severely stuttering child finds solace in speaking to animals and vows to speak for them if he grows up to find his voice. Years later we find him as the world's premier jaguar expert, having a face to face with an animal in the jungle of Belize. Plus, a Texas tale of moon pies and bedazzlers, and the surprising story of a Harlem man who ends up at a rodeo in Oregon.
Note: Some stories are emotionally intense and not for children.
I heard a neurobiologist discussing a study about a chimp playing a video-type game and being rewarded w/a tube of juice when he participated. The chimp then refused to play and the researcher became angry, then felt guilty. The story aired around 9-10:00pm 8/7/10. I missed the beginning and the end of the piece and am very interested in finding more on this. Thank you very much, Jay

Looks great! You wouldn't happen to have anything larger though would you? Its a bit too small to make out more intricate details
Here's a world map I've been working on - it's for a fantasy novel I'm planning to write some day. Or maybe turn into a RPG campaign setting, I don't know.
I've used Photoshop to create the shape of the world, and imported that as vector shapes into Illustrator. Here's what I've done so far:
I imported the thing into Photoshop and played around with mountains and jungles - these are just some preliminary sketches:
And here I've overlayed a world map to give you an idea how big it is, it's not 100% accurate though.
the first map is pure Illustrator. The other two maps are made at screen resolution.
I like the shape of the continent in the middle. But as Rythal said, i'd like a much higher resolution of these pics...we need to zoom in to see more detail
I'm trapped in Darkness,
Still I reach out for the Stars

ornamentation—only a mother-of-pearl logo inlay atop the trademark, art deco-inspired headstock hint at its brand identity.
A No-Frills Cannon If the sedate styling of the D- 50 doesn't successfully convey the notion that it's a player's guitar, one strum of a first-position E chord puts any doubt to rest. In fact, you get the sense that Guild left this guitar so unadorned because it's going to take a licking anyway.
This is a guitar that begs to be played hard and with authority.
The original D- 50 (as well as the D- 50'smore expensive brother in the currentTraditional line) was dubbed the BluegrassSpecial. So it's not the least bit surpris-ing that this guitar sounds so good whenyou dig in with a big, heavy flatpick.Country-blues hybrid picking in the firstposition suited the D- 50's husky tonalsignature, and its capacity for sustain keptopen strings ringing and hanging likeshimmering ornaments on the simplestchords.

With Hollywood starlets getting Botox before being legally able to rent a car, today's society is youth obsessed. Even if forty is the new thirty, everyone would still rather be twenty. You may not be ready to go under the knife for a youthful looking face but thankfully there are some easy ways to look younger without the pain and cost.
1. Hydration
This is an old piece of advice but a great one nonetheless. Think of your skin like a grape. When you're hydrated, your skin stays puffy and soft. When you're dehydrated, you prune up like a raisin. Don't like that visual? Then make sure you drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.
2. Wear Less Make-up
Caking on make-up might work on the red carpet but in your day-to-day life, it's not going to work. Heavy make-up makes your wrinkles stand out and your face look tired. Instead use concealer on trouble spots, put on a light powder rather than foundation, and for the love of god, put down the black eyeliner. Stick to brown or gray eyeliners for a smoky, smoldering look.
3. Dress (Slightly) Younger
Let me start by assuring you this is not free license to raid the girls' section of your local mall. If you're pushing forty, stay away from Forever 21. It's a fine line to straddle but dress slightly younger than you are. Showing up to your fiftieth birthday in a romper is going to make your friends cringe but buying an above-the-knee length dress will make you look hip and modern.
4. Act Younger
There will always be people who make you stand back and ask, "Wait, you're how old?!" Whether it's a 75 year old first-time snowboarder or a 45 year old woman getting down on the dance floor, the one thing they all have in common is they act young. You don't have to go back to your binge-drinking college days but be open to new activities and experiences. Because let's face it, you're not getting any younger.

1. Duke (9-0)
Since we last talked: Duke beat Temple in New Jersey.
My take: There was a point toward the end of Duke's 2010 season when it went from playing good basketball to beautiful basketball. Here's a fairly common scenario from that season:
A shot would miss, Brian Zoubek would grab an offensive rebound and, instead of trying to score, he'd whip it back out on the perimeter to one of that team's deadly shooters. The defense, having instinctively sucked in a few steps after the shot, would readjust. But by the time it did, those Blue Devils' shooters would be flicking passes around the arc, passing up one good shot for a better one, until finally one of them – usually one that was laughably open – would launch a 3. On the chance that shot missed, Zoubek or Lance Thomas would grab the rebound and the whole scene would play out again. It was Mike Krzyzewski's white board come to life. This Duke team hasn't yet reached that point, but it's getting close.
2. N.C. State (6-2)
Since we last talked: N.C. State woke up the echoes last week, beating Connecticut in the Jimmy V Classic and taking care of Cleveland State in Reynolds Coliseum.
My take: Did you know that N.C. State is hitting 52.1 percent of its shots? That' the second best shooting percentage in the nation. Not bad, 'Pack.
3. Virginia Tech (7-1)
Since we last talked: The Hokies lost a close one at West Virginia.
My take: James Johnson's first Virginia Tech squad has been the surprise of the young season. The Hokies should keep that up for the next few weeks as they've got home games against Georgia Southern and Mississippi Valley State followed by a trip to the Continental Tire Las Vegas Classic which doesn't exactly have a field full of titans.
4. Maryland (8-1)
Since we last talked: The Terps hammered Maryland-Eastern Shore and rolled past South Carolina State, both at home.
My take: After losing to Kentucky by three on the opening night of the season, it was easy to quickly slot the Terrapins among the league's contenders. While they haven't lost since, they've left College Park just twice – once to play in DC – and haven't faced much in the way of strenuous competition. Maryland's most impressive victory was at Northwestern (7-3). Meanwhile, Kentucky has shown itself to be nowhere near the preseason top five team many thought it would be. So circle that Jan. 5 meeting with Virginia Tech. Someone may be in for a market correction.
5. North Carolina (7-2)
Since we last talked: North Carolina blasted an ETSU team that may be the worst it faces all season.
My take: So did North Carolina get any better this week? Your guess is as good as mine.
6. Miami (5-1)
Since we last talked: Miami didn't play. So there's that.
My take: The Hurricanes don't play again until Friday night in Charlotte. The 49ers are 9-0, so look out. This one could be fun.
7. Virginia (6-2)
Since we last talked: Virginia beat Tennessee then breezed by Mississippi Valley State.
My take: Virginia held Tennessee to 38 points and MVSU to 39.The Cavaliers have held opponents to fewer than 50 points in five of their eight games. Virginia has things in needs to figure out, but keeping opposing offenses stuck in the mud is one thing it still knows how to do well.
8. Florida State (5-4)
Since we last talked: The Seminoles got blitzed by Florida at home and then worked out some frustration in a blowout of Maine.
My take: A loss last week to Mercer and a total shellacking at the hands of a very good Gators team makes last season's joyous ending seem so long ago.
9. Clemson (5-3)
Since we last talked: Clemson lost at home to No. 8 Arizona.
My take: The Tigers led the Wildcats in the second half and got solid showings from Milton Jennings and K.J. McDaniels. There's nothing but Palmetto State foes from here until conference play. So expect the Tigers to be an interesting piece to the ACC puzzle.
10. Georgia Tech (6-2)
Since we last talked: The Yellow Jackets beat Georgia and UNC-Wilmington.
My take: So the Yellow Jackets won one for the old ACC and beat those rival Bulldogs from the SEC. I believe that makes the count in head-to-head matchups this season ACC 6, SEC 2. And one of those SEC wins came against Maryland, a team the ACC barely counts these days. Heck, even Boston College got in on the act by beating Auburn. Good times.
11. Boston College (4-5)
Since we last talked: Boston College lost to Harvard and beat St. Francis (NY).
My take: Remember all that stuff about the ACC winning six of eight against the SEC this year? Well, thanks to BC, the league is now 0-1 against the Ivy League this season.
12. Wake Forest (4-5)
Since we last talked: The Deacs beat High Point and lost to Seton Hall at home.
My take: The Demon Deacons have just two games left in 2012. Thus far, they're 8-19 during this calendar year. In one way or another, 2013 will have to be about new beginnings.

I don't believe you can argue 2000/month is a lucrative pension.
Working 9 months of every year, yeah I would say it is.

In Grey Lynn we have 3 community gardens and many people who garden in their backyard.
Grey Lynn 2030 has an active gardening group who are looking at producing your own food from your home garden of public land. Urban Food Production is a modern name for it. In our group, people exchange seedlings and eventually surplus produce.
Our biggest project is the beginning on the Wilton St Community Garden
We have a fantastic resource – the land. There is plenty to do to develop this into a lovely and sustainable community garden and we would welcome any keen people experienced gardeners or not, who'd like to join in.
The garden is on privately owned land, consisting of two combined sites, belonging to the Gypsy Tea Room and the Wine Vault.
The site was previously a very overgrown 'vacant lot' with a bad jasmine infestation.
So far work on the garden has consisted mainly of weed clearance and rubbish removal, which has been carried out by a handful of enthusiastic locals, mostly neighbours from Wilton Street.
Our plan is to grow herbs, pickable fruit and vegetables and maybe have a compost unit for local people to bring their compostable waste to.
We only have certainty of a medium term tenure estimated at 3-5 years minimum. We have made the decision to develop the garden as much possible using locally sourced recycled materials. We are hoping to get unwanted plants and materials from the local community, garden centres and businesses.
The site already has an existing fig tree, nasturtiums, some old roses (including one covered in rosehips) and a bay tree. We have recently planted a lemon and bananas salvaged from a nearby site being bulldozed for redevelopment. One shady corner of the site is fenced off with trellis and has existing native plants and trees. We plan to have this as quiet amenity garden, with the balance of the site – the sunny area, used for growing fruit and vegetables.
We have a regular working bee on the site – every Sunday morning from 9 – 12
As the garden becomes established, gardeners can work in and use the garden at any time.
Short term jobs
- Soil test site – we want to grow food and don't know the history of the site and until recently cars have been parking on it
- Ongoing weed removal – spray and chop back Jasmine
- Boundary fence the site – a very nice picket fence has been donated to us now we just need posts put in to attach picket sections to
- Make and hang Community garden sign – this might be on the concrete wall behind the garden
- Repair existing trellis fence and gates
- Shift concrete tubs and bathtub to better location on site
- Build compost bins and raised garden beds – we may need some top soil to build up beds to begin with.
Materials we require (recycled is fine)
- 8-10 Posts for perimeter fence (minimum 2 m length)
- Untreated timber (or other material) to construct compost bins and garden beds
- Clean topsoil/compost for beds
- Useful Plants
March 2010 update
Our big news is that the community garden now has a water supply!
John Watson and Brenda came up with the idea and donated the funds for a
special 'gizmo' that has been inserted into the storm water downpipe on the
roof of the Gypsy Tea Room. This gizmo diverts the rain water from the
spouting into an ordinary garden hose which goes into the water tank on
John has installed the gizmo and it is working. We are now working with
Tanks Alot to adapt the tanks they donated to the new system.
Thanks to Brett from the Gypsy Tea Room, Tanks Alot and John & Brenda we
now have a sustainable and affordable solution to our water woes. Now all we
need is some decent rain!
You can check out the Garden at a special tour as part of the Grey Lynn 2030 Week. Come along 11am – midday on Sunday 21st March to meet the Gardeners. The Garden will be open for a visit on the night of the West Lynn Street Party and the meeting point for the Walking Tour of Back gardens with chooks at 10am on Saturday 27th March.
