Beatriz studied Architecture and Sustainable Design in Sao Paulo, Brazil. In Sao Paulo she found herself very focused in technical work and not pursuing her real passion of making things with her own hands. After she moved to Santa Cruz, in 2016, she revisited what actually drove her to study Architecture and Design: creativity, hands on activities, and the will of making something pretty that has the power to bring people happiness.

Arthropoda » Chelicerata » Arachnida » Acari » Ixodida » Ixodidae » Ixodes » Blacklegged Deer Tick
The Blacklegged Deer Tick is tear drop shaped and relatively small. Its dorsal shield is black while the body behind it is reddish-brown (as an adult), unless the tick is engorged with blood which fades the color to a grey or even a grey-ish blue. When engorged, this means it recently had a “meal” you might say. Also, as you may have already put together because of the name, they have black legs. Adults are generally the length of a sesame seed, size being 1/8th inch, while immature ticks are closer to a poppy seed size.
They are very abundant in the northeast region of the United States but you could also say they are generally located in the northern U.S. They are found in woods, forests, and very grassy areas. Ticks don’t fly or jump but merely “quest” for a host. They do this by holding onto the grass or shrub, with its back legs, and keeping their upper legs outstretched hoping to grab onto its next host passing by.
This pest typically preys on any host that it can. Starting as small as birds, amphibians, small animals such as squirrels and mice and onto larger animals such as humans, deer, bear, and other wild animals. They also don’t mind clinging to a family pet. Rule of thumb, if it has blood, it is probably susceptible to being a tick’s host. Their predators have not been reported mostly because it's predators aren’t even maintaining the over-growing population of these pesky blood-suckers.
Ticks are very harmful to humans and also many other wildlife. They are formally known for carrying Lyme disease. It carries many more diseases and sicknesses than just Lyme disease. All deer ticks, at any age, have the potential to infect a human with Lyme disease. Most commonly though, the nymph stage of this tick is successful in doing so because they are much smaller and are not found or noticed for several days. Typically, the tick cannot transmit the disease for 36-48 hours after attaching to its host, this is why adult ticks are less likely to do so.
Most people will notice an adult tick and especially an engorged adult tick within the day of attaching. Still, prevention is key when it comes to ticks. Light colored, long sleeves and bottoms are the best types of clothing to wear when out and about in the woods or even a high-grass yard or field. Your chances of seeing them crawling on you, with this much on, are much more likely and you will slow them down from finding a good place for them to bite and plant themselves. Other prevention tips would be to walk in the middle trails or paths to prevent rubbing up against any shrubbery. Last but certainly not least, a insect repellant targeted specifically for ticks is necessary for long periods of time out in the previously mentioned habitats.
Deer ticks have a two year life cycle. They are first eggs, then larvae, nymphs, and then adults. The larvae will feed on small mammals such as birds and mice. Soon after, they molt into the nymph stage. The nymphs become dormant during the fall and winter seasons. When late spring and summer arrive, they feed on larger animals such as dogs, deer, and other wild animals. When fall arrives again, the nymphs molt into the adult stage. The females then find a deer or other larger animal to feed on throughout the colder months, mate, lay their eggs, and then die. The male does not eat any blood meals during its adult transformation. They only attach to a host to spot and mate with a female.

If the name seems familiar, these tales about Darby O'Gill and his encounter with the fairies were adapted for a Disney movie, Darby O'Gill and the Little People. They tell the story of an Irishman whose cow is captured by the fairies - or "good people". In his determination to recover his property, Darby finds himself in the center of their home, the mountain Sleive-na-mon. Not wishing to remain a captive forever despite the cordial hospitality of his hosts, he escapes through a clever ruse and earns the admiration and friendship of their King Brian Connors. Now Darby O'Gill is a local hero and his adventures continue as he encounters leprechauns, ghosts and banshees under the skeptical eye of his wife Bridget and the local priest.
Includes: "Darby O'Gill and the Good People"; "Darby O'Gill and the Leprechaun"; "The Conversion of Father Cassidy"; "How the Fairies Came to Ireland"; "The Adventures of King Brian Connors"; "The Banshee's Comb".

Fun story with a wonderful narrator!
I don't often listen to a book more than once so probably not
I really liked the fairy King Brian Connors. He was entertaining and fun for me to listen to.
Brian Connors, king of the fairies.
I didn't know anything about the Disney version of this story so what really made this enjoyable for me what the narration. Anne Hancock was perfect! It's a joy to listen to a story where the accent is appropriate and the emphasis and timing is right on. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Stress sensor with capture coating for detecting a target substance
Publication date: 2005
The invention relates to a stress sensor for detecting a target substance in a fluid comprising one or more sensor units e.g. shaped as cantilevers and comprising a capture coating and a detecting system. The invention also relates to a method of generating a capture coating for a target substance onto a sensor unit. The object of the present invention is to provide a stress sensor with an improved selectivity compared with prior art stress sensors. Another object is to provide a stress sensor which is relatively simple and cheap to produce, and which can be produced with high uniformity. The problem is solved in that the capture coating comprises a molecular imprinted polymerizate (MIP) for the target substance. This has the advantage of providing improved stability and robustness compared to for example antibodies. The MIPs can be stored at room temperature and withstand treatment with strong acid or base and can be reused a great number of times without any significant loss in affinity and selectivity. The invention may e.g. be used for implementing very sensitive mechanical stress sensors, e.g. in the form of micro cantilevers for detection of molecular interaction.

And I did not see this one coming...
“I was, like, ‘Please, double-fault. That way I can win the match,’” Li explained to the crowd a few moments later.
Sharapova obliged. Her second serve hit the white tape atop the net and bounced back for Sharapova’s 10th double-fault of an error-filled afternoon, closing Li’s 6-4, 7-5 victory. The result ended Sharapova’s bid to complete a career Grand Slam, and allowed Li to reach a second consecutive major final.
At the Australian Open in January, Li was the runner-up, the first tennis player from China to reach a major championship match. At the French Open on Saturday — when she will play defending champion Francesca Schiavone — Li can become the first Grand Slam champion from her nation of more than 1 billion people.
Schiavone beat 11th-seeded Marion Bartoli of France 6-3, 6-3 in the other semifinal. A year ago at Roland Garros, Schiavone became the first woman from Italy to win a Grand Slam title. But she had failed to make it to the final of any tournament since then, until taking the last four games to beat Bartoli.
“When I come here,” the fifth-seeded Schiavone said, “I feel something special.”
After Bartoli’s last two-handed forehand — she grips her racket with both fists on nearly every shot — dropped into the net to end the day’s second semifinal, Schiavone celebrated by bending down and rubbing her right palm on the clay court, then making a fist and kissing it.
At 30, Schiavone would be the first woman at least that old to win a Grand Slam title since Martina Navratilova was 33 at Wimbledon in 1990. Combine Schiavone’s age with the 29-year-old Li’s, and Saturday’s match will have the oldest pair of finalists at a major tournament in 13 years.
She fell in love with the French Open the first time she came to play in the junior tournament and got a chance to see Steffi Graf and Monica Seles play in the semifinals. Schiavone sat in the stands, like any other fan, and snapped a photo she still looks at to this day.

Analyst firm, Gartner, published a set ofÂ guidelines intended to ease relationships between cloud vendors and users. As cloud computing becomes more pervasive, the ecosystem (including vendors and analysts) is seeking ways to align expectations among relevant parties.
Gartner specified “six rights and one responsibility of service customers that will help providers and consumers establish and maintain successful business relationships:”
The right to retain ownership, use and control one’s own data – Service consumers should retain ownership of, and the rights to use, their own data.
The right to service-level agreements that address liabilities, remediation and business outcomes – All computing services – including cloud services – suffer slowdowns and failures. However, cloud services providers seldom commit to recovery times, specify the forms of remediation or spell out the procedures they will follow.
The right to notification and choice about changes that affect the service consumers’ business processes – Every service provider will need to take down its systems, interrupt its services or make other changes in order to increase capacity and otherwise ensure that its infrastructure will serve consumers adequately in the long term. Protecting the consumer’s business processes entails providing advanced notification of major upgrades or system changes, and granting the consumer some control over when it makes the switch.
The right to understand the technical limitations or requirements of the service up front – Most service providers do not fully explain their own systems, technical requirements and limitations so that after consumers have committed to a cloud service, they run the risk of not being able to adjust to major changes, at least not without a big investment.
The right to understand the legal requirements of jurisdictions in which the provider operates – If the cloud provider stores or transports the consumer’s data in or through a foreign country, the service consumer becomes subject to laws and regulations it may not know anything about.
The right to know what security processes the provider follows – With cloud computing, security breaches can happen at multiple levels of technology and use. Service consumers must understand the processes a provider uses, so that security at one level (such as the server) does not subvert security at another level (such as the network).
The responsibility to understand and adhere to software license requirements – Providers and consumers must come to an understanding about how the proper use of software licenses will be assured.
Readers interested in this topic should also seeÂ enterprise analyst, Ray Wang’s, Software as a Service (SaaS) Customer’s Bill of Rights. That document describes a set of practices to ensure consumer protections across the entire SaaS lifecycle, as indicated in the following diagram:
My take. ForÂ cloud computing to achieve sustained success and adoption, the industry must find ways to simplify and align expectations between users and vendors. Gartner’s comments and the SaaS Bill of Rights are worthy steps toward that goal.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has declared an end to its latest Ebola virus outbreak, according to officials.
The outbreak, the 15th recorded in the country, emerged when one case was confirmed in the eastern city of Beni, in North Kivu province, on August 22.
Keep readinglist of 3 items
But the outbreak was the virus’s “least catastrophic” since no other case was recorded, the World Health Organization (WHO) said in a statement on Tuesday.
Testing showed the case was genetically linked to the 2018-2020 outbreak in North Kivu and Ituri provinces, which killed nearly 2,300 people.
“After 42 days of reinforced surveillance without a new confirmed case … I am happy to solemnly declare the end of the 15th epidemic … that lasted one month and 12 days,” the DRC’s Minister of Public Health Mbungani Mbanda said in a separate statement.
Ebola is an often fatal viral haemorrhagic fever. Human transmission is through body fluids, with the main symptoms being fever, vomiting, bleeding and diarrhoea.
The death rate is typically high, ranging up to 90 percent in some outbreaks, according to the WHO.
First identified in 1976, the virus, whose natural host is the bat, has since set off a series of epidemics in various African countries, killing about 15,000 people.
The DRC’s previous outbreak was in northwest Equateur province. It was declared over on July 4 after five deaths.
The end of the 15th outbreak comes as neighbouring Uganda “races to curb” an Ebola outbreak of its own, the WHO said.
Uganda’s health ministry said Ebola has claimed five lives so far and is the probable but still unconfirmed cause of another 18 deaths.
At present, there is no licensed medication to prevent or treat Ebola, although a range of experimental drugs are in development and thousands have been vaccinated in the DRC and some neighbouring countries.

Electronic supplementary material
The online version of this article (https://doi.org/10.1186/s12913-018-3113-y) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
There is a paucity of evidence on access to services for mental health and psychosocial support for conflict-affected populations in low- and middle-income countries. In the Republic of Georgia, rates of utilization of mental health services among internally displaced people with mental disorders are low. We set out to identify the health system barriers leading to this treatment gap.
We used rapid appraisal methods (collection and triangulation of multiple data sources) to investigate barriers to accessing mental health care services among adult IDPs in Georgia. Data collection included review of existing policy documents and other published data, as well as semi-structured interviews with 29 key informants including policy makers, NGO staff, health professionals and patients.
The following factors emerged as important barriers affecting access to mental health care services among IDPs in Georgia: inadequate insurance coverage of mental disorders and poor identification and referral systems, underfunding, shortage of human resources, poor information systems, patient out-of-pocket payments and stigmatization.
While rapid appraisal methods cannot control for potential biases or achieve representativeness, triangulation supports internal validity and reliability of the data collected, allowing data to be used to inform health care interventions. The appropriateness and potential effectiveness of policy interventions such as insurance coverage of a wider range of mental disorders, integration of services for these at the primary health care level, and community-based approaches in this context should be explored.

Stubbs is now strong and healthy though he will be a smaller sized cat. He got his name because his tail was already broken and healed when he came to rescue so it bends to the side. Our vet has examined it and it caused no pain and doesn't need any treatment, it's just how he is. He is a bit more independent but also has very sweet moments where he is all about cuddling. He is litter box trained. He has been battling some softer stools but has been treated with medication. Mostly it will just take time for his bowels to develop as he ages. He is NOT declawed nor allowed outside.
Stubbs' adoption fee is $100 which includes his neuter, microchip, FVRCP and Rabies vaccinations and deworming.

Marine Protected Areas Boom with Beachgoers, According to New Report
Orange County Coastkeeper volunteers track more than 26,000 people visiting MPAs in 2015
ORANGE COUNTY, October 25, 2016 – More Orange County locals are enjoying the beautiful marine life at the county’s seven Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), according to Orange County Coastkeeper’s annual MPA Watch Report. This newly released year-end report analyzes trends in human activity within MPAs during 2015, based on observational data collected by Coastkeeper’s volunteers. The full document is available on Coastkeeper’s website.
MPAs, designated to protect entire marine environments rather than individual species, create a safe place for marine populations to grow and thrive. Once an area is designated as an MPA, the law prohibits or limits consumptive activities such as fishing.
Coastkeeper’s 2015 MPA Watch report reveals that Coastkeeper counted 26,588 people visiting local MPAs during the 483 MPA Watch surveys completed in 2015, a 3 percent increase over 2014. Ninety-nine percent of recorded activities were non-consumptive, allowing marine life to thrive undisturbed. Eighty percent of observations were onshore recreational activities like swimming, sunbathing, running and wildlife viewing. Offshore activities like surfing, diving, snorkeling and boating comprised 19 percent of total activity.
“More people than ever are enjoying Orange County’s Marine Protected Areas,” says Ray Hiemstra, associate director of programs for Orange County Coastkeeper. “It’s an encouraging trend because MPAs protect vulnerable ecosystems and provide beautiful destinations for our communities to enjoy.”
Ongoing research by Coastkeeper volunteers ensures these areas serve their purpose in protecting wildlife. It also allows Coastkeeper to assist regulatory and enforcement agencies in minimizing the human footprint at MPAs. Active protection of MPAs contributes to the management of sustainable fisheries by restricting overfishing, a constant threat to our fish populations.
Residents are invited to protect their local marine environments by joining Coastkeeper’s MPA Watch program. Trained volunteer teams produce accurate and reliable information to provide a better understanding of how individuals use coastal MPAs. Through classroom and field trainings, volunteers learn about MPA science, local marine resources, MPA locations, allowed uses, identification of common human-use activities and existing MPA monitoring efforts.

ORANGE COUNTY COASTKEEPER: Founded in 1999, the mission of Coastkeeper is to protect and promote sustainable water resources that are swimmable, drinkable, and fishable. Coastkeeper is a nonprofit clean water organization that serves as a proactive steward of our fresh- and saltwater ecosystems. We work collaboratively with diverse groups in the public and private sectors to achieve healthy, accessible, and sustainable water resources for the region.

FX and BBC One have ordered a second season of Taboo, starring Tom Hardy.
“We are grateful and excited to continue our relationship with the BBC and FX in contributing towards British drama. Fantastic news,” said Hardy, Creator, Star and Executive Producer.
Taboo Renewed for Second Season
FX and BBC One Order Season Two of Drama Series From Executive Producers Ridley Scott, Tom Hardy and Steven Knight and Starring Tom Hardy
The First Season of Taboo Delivers 5.8 million Total Viewers Weekly on FX
LOS ANGELES, March 8, 2017 – Taboo, the drama series executive produced by and starring Tom Hardy, who also co-created the series alongside Steven Knight and Chips Hardy, has been renewed for a second season by FX and BBC One. The first season was among the highest-rated new cable dramas of the past year in the U.S.
“Taboo’s first season was exceptional and its success on FX is testament to the creative excellence and dedication of the producers, cast and crew,” said Eric Schrier, President of Original Programming, FX Networks and FX Productions. “We are proud to again join BBC One and Sonar Entertainment in partnering with Scott Free London and Hardy Son & Baker on the second season and look forward to working again with the great Tom Hardy, Steven Knight, Ridley Scott, Chips Hardy and everyone who makes Taboo so remarkable.”
Across all linear and non-linear platforms, the first season of Taboo delivers 5.8 million Total Viewers weekly on FX.
“We are grateful and excited to continue our relationship with the BBC and FX in contributing towards British drama. Fantastic news,” said Tom Hardy, Creator and Executive Producer.
Ridley Scott, Executive Producer, said, “We’re thrilled people want to know what happens next and that the BBC and FX are up for more adventures with the devil Delaney and the league of the damned. Along with our international distributors, Sonar Entertainment, the BBC and FX have been great partners, supporting Taboo at every stage so it could be the dark, dirty brute of a drama that it is.”
“I’m thrilled that a work which pushes boundaries has been so well received and found such a large and enthusiastic audience in the U.S. and Britain,” said Steven Knight, Creator and Executive Producer. ”We have tried to take an impressionistic, rather than figurative, approach to a narrative which we hope more accurately portrays the spirit of an extraordinary time in history. James Delaney will continue to explore many realities as he takes his band of misfits to a new world, thanks to FX and the BBC, partners who could not be more suited to collaborating in ground breaking work.”
“I’m delighted we have the opportunity to build on what was achieved in the first series, and that we can continue to create breakthrough drama to intrigue and entertain,” said Chips Hardy, Creator and Consulting Producer.
Set in 1814, the first season of Taboo follows “James Keziah Delaney,” a man who has been to the ends of the earth and comes back irrevocably changed. Believed to be long dead, he returns home to London from Africa to inherit what is left of his father’s shipping empire and rebuild a life for himself. But his father’s legacy is a poisoned chalice, and with enemies lurking in every dark corner, James must navigate increasingly complex territories to avoid his own death sentence. Encircled by conspiracy, murder and betrayal, a dark family mystery unfolds in a combustible tale of love and treachery.
Taboo is created by Steven Knight, Tom Hardy and Chips Hardy, who is also the show’s consulting producer. Executive producers are Ridley Scott and Kate Crowe for Scott Free London, Tom Hardy and Dean Baker for Hardy Son & Baker, and Steven Knight. Taboo is produced by Scott Free London and Hardy Son & Baker for FX and BBC One with Sonar Entertainment distributing worldwide outside the UK.

"Can-dogging," alcohol and family: Life among Lansing’s homeless camps
|By Andy Balaskovitz|
Every night at about 9:30, Vivian “Mama Bear” Thomas waits excitedly for her friends to come by for dinner. She sits beneath a deck umbrella and blue plastic tarps, held together by dead tree branches. Over her shoulder are three small bedrooms and a kitchen area.
There are three pathways that lead to Thomas’ camp from Kalamazoo Street, the River Trail and the Whiskey Barrel Saloon parking lot on Lansing’s east side. Clothes and rugs hang out to dry after Thursday’s heavy rainfall, while shelves full of pots and pans sit stacked on a wobbly metal stand.
Her friends are Roxy and Oliver, both females, and Thomas makes sure to have food ready for them each night.
On Sunday night, a pot of fish stew sits on Thomas’ cast-iron stove as three men stand around sharing stories, smoking the cheapest cigarettes they can buy or whatever is given to them. Thomas favors JWs, a brand of mini-cigars that cost $1.50 per pack.
Thomas has spent the past five months turning the woods near the Whiskey Barrel into her home. Roxy is a raccoon; Oliver is a stray cat (Thomas thought she was a male at first, but the name stuck). But their devotion to Thomas’ food is no weaker than her wantonness to live outside among the critters, permanently, in Lansing.
“I came out here to find my peace, quiet and serenity and get away from the riff-raff,” Thomas said Sunday night with a headlamp bound around her head. “We do pretty good out here.”
Thomas is one of about 4,200 homeless people in the greater Lansing area. In the 1960s, her doctor told her she had an upside-down chromosome, which today is called a bipolar disorder. She says the woods help her stabilize mentally, and it is only when rowdy neighbors set up camp in the woods that she is liable to “go on the nuts,” she said.
Thomas believes she is doing the city a service by staying out of trouble, minding her own business and keeping the woods clean. (Bags of garbage she has picked up line her camp.) She says she lives no differently than her grandparents, who raised their children in a three-room shack with nothing but a wood-fired stove.
She is 52 and chooses to not have an apartment, even though she gets a $698 Social Security check at the beginning of the month. She supplements her income by “can-dogging,” or collecting returnable aluminum cans, for cigarettes and food. She does not drink or do drugs, unlike many of the homeless.
With fall upon us, Thomas shrugs off the thought of below-freezing nights this coming winter. Her main concern is the “riff-raff” that has moved into her woods, staying up late, drinking and generally being rowdy.
“I’m just a simple person and don’t like a lot of confusion in my life,” Thomas said.
“But with them over there — being loud, stealing stuff — I go on the nuts. They’re trying to take over the camp, and I’m very defensive.”
There are two types of homeless camps in the Lansing area, oftentimes close to the River Trail. Some are permanent and constructed in the woods, like Thomas’. Others are more transient that change locations daily from, say, beneath a bridge or in a parking ramp. Attitudes of residents at these camps vary from proud to ashamed, peaceful to afflicted.
The homeless profess to three primary ways of scraping together enough money for their next bottle, pack of cigarettes or snacks: can-dogging (collecting deposits on aluminum cans), panhandling and prostitution.
You can usually spot a homeless camp by the inordinate amount of trash in a given location. Perhaps a tarp is still nailed to tree branches, though these are more permanent sites. There can be anywhere from three or four to 15 camps set up between Michigan State University and the Turner Dodge House on the River Trail.
Though not all of these camps will disappear as the mercury drops and snow starts falling, most will. Sleeping outside is an alternative to local shelters and Christian outreach ministries. However, there are not enough beds to accommodate everyone, and none of them will accept someone who has been drinking.
City officials and law enforcement do not encourage homeless camps in the city, partly because of their appearance, but mostly because hanging around together furthers their addiction or mental illness. Sometimes both. And while conversations with some homeless may leave you feeling hopeful that they have others to share their crisis with, city officials warn this isn’t necessarily healthy.
’I never thought being homeless is a choice’
Around the time Thomas moved into the Kalamazoo Street woods, the Lansing Human Relations and Community Services Department issued its annual homelessness study. The exact count of those who received city services in 2009 was 4,185, down 65 people from 2008. However, the trend since 2006 continues to climb. Almost 1,000 more people received assistance such as food, shelter and counseling in 2009 compared to 2006. The report said 670 beds were available on a nightly basis in the greater Lansing area in 2009.
Department director Joan Jackson Johnson said the city works with local shelters to divert people from setting up camps.
“We are proud of our efforts, but foreclosures have not helped at all,” she said.
Patrick Patterson, vice president of operations for Volunteers of America, agrees.
Cards, drinks and a longing for family
“These are my friends,” she said while dealing a hand. “We drink, camp and get along.”
Dugger is preparing for her fourth winter outdoors, and she concedes that she goes inside when the weather is too rough.
“I dread it all day long,” he said staring at the river. “I never thought I’d be here.”
“This is why I hate the fires,” Weaver said, disgruntled.
Alcoholism is something they have in common, she said.
“To be honest, most of us are alcoholics.
I’ve been to rehab, but as soon as I get out I want a drink,” Lee said.
“Well, you can turn tricks, can-dog or panhandle,” she said. “We know how to make money.”
Johnson says this behavior is friendship masquerading as mental illness and is exactly the kind she wants to discourage.
Johnson said there is an important partnership between her department, the
No end in sight
“As a society, we say we won’t let you die.
But as a society we don’t say that we’re going to keep you out of homelessness,” he said.
“I am clearing the garbage that was tearing my life apart,” she said.
Literally and figuratively.

The King of Pop's youngest son has stepped into the spotlight to highlight climate change, following his late father's lead as an environmentalist.
After years of bad breakups and suicide attempts, Michael Jackson's daughter Paris, 22, has finally conquered her demons — with a new album to prove it.
In the first episode of the movie review channel, the brothers discuss "Avengers: Endgame."
The potential suit, according to a source close to the family, would be for fraud, emotional distress, slander, misrepresentation and more.

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus)
Arctic Finnish Chaga
Chaga mushroom has been used for hundreds of years especially in Russia and Eastern-Europe and Asia. Chaga is collected from Finnish Lapland, and it is all wild and handcrafted. Arctic Chaga grows on birch trees.
Limitations: It is not recommended to use chaga if you have a circulatory disorder, hepatopathy, or kidney problems. Do not use Chaga when having antibiotics, penicillin, or use intravenous glucose.
The collection of Arctic Chaga is not part of everyone's rights but requires the permission of the landowner. Arctic Chaga is not an ordinary dwarf, as its mode of growth differs from other dwarfs, and it is not the heard of the Arctic Chaga that is collected, but the growth that it causes. It cannot usually be collected without damaging the tree, unlike other dwarfs, but the tree will produce a new one after 3-4 years

It is my lunch time here and a conversation my girl K and I have discussed, with each other and others, is how we view dice. Other than my unhealthy addiction of them, we both have the opinion that when we create a new character to play, they should have their own dice set. Personally, I feel that the style of dice can say a lot about the character. Ana, my Cleric, is serious. She is cold, and her dice are elvish dice. Grace, my rogue, was very flashy, so she had sparkly, pretty, dice. Janella, my original fighter, was very serious and responsible, so she had dark purple dice. It never felt right playing a character with another’s dice, except for the times I needed a few d6’s.
How do you feel concerning sets of dice? Do you have different ones for different characters, or do you feel that one set, tried and true, can go through all adventures?
Really unhealthy. I know I am not even done yet.
Personal Character sets. The pictures never do the colors justice.
My break is pretty much over, but I was curious on the take you may have. I know when K and I were discussing it with Girl1 and the Boy, they didn’t think more than 1 set would be needed. I like to think that each character needs their definition. Each way would work, and in the end it is all about personal preference.
Til next time, roll true!

This time of year is beautiful to me; I know that sunshine and warm days are right around the corner and it makes the chilly and murky days more bearable. I find myself coming out of hibernation and becoming more active around my house – cleaning, exercising, planning my garden for the year. This last weekend I dug out supplies for my garden and I felt this sense of calm wash over me knowing what was to come. If you know what I am talking about, you probably have gardened before. If you don’t, let me fill you in on some of the amazing things I have learned in the last two years of vermicomposting and tower gardening.
- Did you know that there is a beneficial bacteria in soil called Mycobacterium vaccae, which studies have linked to increased serotonin production? (Serotonin is one of our body’s “happy” chemicals.) So, if you have been struggling with feelings of depression lately, taking up gardening as a hobby might just have an impact on improving your mental health, according to this study.
- Gardening exposes us to our five senses. This can be an incredibly calming activity because while gardening our senses of touch, smell, hearing, sight, and even taste are exercised—depending on what you grow! Using all of our senses can help calm our bodies and minds because we are keeping the sensory input parts of our body busy with relaxing stimuli.
- Gardening can be a fun and economical way to grow your own food. This can be an activity for the whole family! From starting seeds, putting them in the ground, watering them, and finally harvesting them, individuals of nearly all ages can get involved in the process. Every year I try to challenge myself to grow something new to expose myself to eating new things and mix up my meals. Having fresh vegetables right outside my door makes it really easy to make healthy meals or add new flares to food with fresh herbs. We know that eating healthy foods has a direct correlation to our mental health.
- Gardening keeps us active. Knowing my seeds need tending to gets me up off the couch to check on my seedlings. Once they move outside I get even more activity in, and as an added bonus, more vitamin D from sunshine —another natural mood-boosting source.
- Not all seeds are created equal. Some seeds like to be nursed inside before going in the ground, others want to be planted straight into the dirt. Some seeds need to be soaked for a few hours to a day before being planted, others are okay to be put into the soil directly. Some seeds grow best at different times of the year because climate changes throughout the year. If you want to know more about when you should start your seeds and how they like to be planted, check out this resource here: https://www.johnnyseeds.com/growers-library/seed-planting-schedule-calculator.html. Farmer’s Almanac also has a lot of great growing and planting resources, and as a tip for seed starting and planting—they are projecting our last spring frost as May 7th this year.
Did you know that the Eau Claire Public Library has a Seed Library? This is one of those items that you do not have to return – just take what you can use or share. Starting Monday, April 4th feel free to swing by our Seed Library and take a peek at the amazing selection of vegetables and herbs that have generously been donated by Down to Earth Garden Center and the Eau Claire Garden Club. Now, get out there, get your hands dirty, and you might just notice a boost in your mental health. So, what are you looking forward to growing this year?

Ever since seeing "Show Boat" in my local cinema as a teenager, I have wanted to cruise up the Mississippi River on a paddlewheel steamer.
Now, here I am on the dock in New Orleans, Louisiana, waiting to board The American Queen. Adorned with layers of lacy white balconies, a scarlet paddlewheel and towering, ebony smoke stacks, the Queen certainly lives up to her name both outside and within. With the rollicking sound of the boat's calliope and the thrashing of the paddlewheel in the background, we pull away from port and I head for the Chart Room, where "Riverlorian" Jerry Hay fills us in on some essential facts. The river got its name from the Native American word Missis-Sepi (large river). And large it is, flowing about 2,300 miles (or 3,700 kilometers) from its headwaters in Itasca State Park, Minnesota, to the Gulf of Mexico. It was probably first viewed by Europeans when Hernando de Soto saw it in 1541, and 130 years later René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, claimed the river for France. It didn't become part of the U.S. until 1803, when Napoleon sold the Louisiana Territory to U.S. President Thomas Jefferson.
A Riverfront Lined with Plantations and Wealthy Towns
In the first half of the 19th-century, when the river was lined with millionaires' cotton and sugar-cane plantations and thriving port towns, it was a major highway filled with steamboats, barges, keel boats and other vessels. Among their crew members was a river pilot named Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, who put the river's colorful lifestyle on the international map with such novels as Life on the Mississippi, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
Then came the 1861-65 American Civil War, which defeated the Southern Confederacy, ended the plantation lifestyle and decimated some of the riverside towns, notably Vicksburg, Mississippi, about 300 miles (480 kilometers) upriver and our ultimate destination.
Whereas in 1833 there were more than 1,200 steamboats on the river, today there are very few. Only the 436-passenger American Queen, built in 1995 as the largest steamboat ever and then refitted and relaunched in 2012, travels long distances up the Mississippi and its tributary Ohio and Tennessee rivers. Along the way, it visits such cities as Memphis (its home port) and Chattanooga, Tennessee; St. Louis, Missouri; St. Paul, Minnesota; Cincinnati, Ohio; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, plus numerous smaller communities and plantations.
A Visit to a Hollywood Film Set Plantation
Next day we reach our first stop, Oak Alley Plantation in Vacherie, Louisiana. With its avenue of 300-year-old, Spanish-moss-swathed oak trees leading to a majestic Greek Revival mansion fronted by 28 colossal Doric columns; it's straight out of a Hollywood film. In fact, numerous films have been made here, including Interview with the Vampire, starring Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, and Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte, which featured Bette Davis, not to forget Beyonce's Déjà Vue music video.
After a tour of Oak Alley, we are off on a short minibus ride to nearby and even-more-fascinating Laura Plantation. Its main house was built in the quite-different Creole style, raised off the ground above a brick cellar, with tall, French doors opening from the wide porch direct into the living accommodation. Here we are given more insight into the area's pre-Civil War lifestyle. Among the things we learn is that the famous Uncle Remus folk stories (featuring B'rer Rabbit, among other animal characters), which are usually attributed to Georgia-based white author, Joel Chandler Harris, actually originated from West African folk tales.
The bright-yellow Laura Plantation house was built in a Creole style and shelters plenty of fascinating Southern history.
Natchez Attracts Spring and Autumn Pilgrims
Disembarking the next day at Natchez, Mississippi, which may only number 20,000 residents, but it is one of the best-known towns along the river, primarily because its beautiful, antebellum mansions attract spring and autumn "pilgrimages" to the area. Welcomed by southern belles in ornate, hoop-skirt-supported gowns, we tour Rosalie Mansion, which, during the Civil War, was commandeered to serve as the Union Army headquarters; Magnolia Hall, built as the residence of a wealthy cotton broker; and elegant Stanton Hall, its grounds occupying an entire city block.
Whereas Natchez emerged from the Civil War intact, our next stop, Vicksburg, was subjected to a traumatic, 47-day Union siege during which residents were reduced to eating rodents and sheltering in caves. Meanwhile, about 37,000 soldiers were either killed or wounded in the nearby battle, which was considered a turning point in the war.
Rather than tour the battlefield, I decide to explore the city, starting with the hilltop Old Courthouse Museum, crammed with exhibits and memorabilia of the Old South, followed by visits to the Church of the Holy Trinity, with its six Tiffany, stained-glass windows honoring the Civil War deceased of both the North and South. Then, I make a brief stop at the Biedenharn Coca-Cola Museum, located in a former candy store whose owner first bottled the famous beverage.
Beautiful Stanton Hall in Natchez, Mississippi, was built in 1857 by Irish cotton merchant Frederick Stanton.
Baton Rouge and the Bayou Legacy of Huey Long
Headed back down river, we dock at the Louisiana state capital, Baton Rouge, where, after a savory Cajun lunch, we head for the Louisiana State Capitol where popular but controversial Governor Huey Long was assassinated in 1935, inspiring both a novel and films. Next comes the Louisiana State University Rural Life Museum, which consists of numerous, traditional rural buildings plus a huge, rustic museum filled with agricultural and other memorabilia.
On our final day, we are scheduled to visit Houmas House but by now the river level has risen so high that it is impossible for The American Queen to anchor at the plantation dock, so we return early to New Orleans. Some passengers depart the next day for a bus tour back to the plantation or on a Bayou Swamp Tour. I decide instead to spend more time in lovely, old New Orleans ... and that's a whole other story.

You are a good parent.
…to your cat. Here’s why:
· You are affectionate, with present-moment awareness, even when you are busy. You rub the kitty’s cheeks, ears and head before you feed her or pet her or scoop out the litter box. You know that this is the best kind of attention she can get.
· You are gentle when you handle her. You don’t just grab here or there, yanking, poking or prodding in an ignorant way. Your hands are exploratory, your touch is calming much of the time, and when you set out to groom her or give medications it’s done with steady pressure to let her know you mean well by it.
· You feed her high-quality food. She eats better than anyone else in the household! And when she doesn’t eat all of what you offer, you leave some for another day rather than dump it in the trash so “she won’t starve herself.”
· You brush her teeth. You don’t give up trying to clean them no matter how much she protests.
· You bring your cat to the veterinarian for wellness exams and vaccinations, even though it’s sometimes inconvenient or stressful for both of you.
· You are ready with a clever solution when your scrupulous kitty starts chewing on cords, rubber bands, toxic houseplants or other inappropriate objects.
Like children, all companion animals need our good parenting skills every day! They deserve only the best, so caretakers can have high self-esteem knowing they are doing their absolute best for their furry family member(s).
Does this describe you? If not… why not?
