Millet, botanically known as eleusine coracana, is widely grown around the world for food.
Millet farmers can earn more money if they add value to their product.
Millet, known to have been cultivated in East Asia for the last 10,000 years, takes two to three months to harvest.
With more Ugandans becoming conscious of their diets, millet is increasingly becoming an important part of the menu for many families.
It is also the main ingredient for the popular local brew – malwa.
Ugandan millet is also exported to Russia, Senegal and Nigeria.
With yields per acre at between 1-1.5 tonnes and a kilogramme currently going for between sh2,000-sh3000, a farmer is assured of sh3m to sh6m per acre of millet.
This is against an investment of about sh1m in the acre.
Millet can be consumed in many ways, however when one adds value to it, the earnings more than triple.
Its healing nature is due to its quality protein, magnesium, phosphorus and fiber content, as well as its alkalising properties, making it perfect for gluten-free and healthy baking.
Millet in your home can be used as a staple. Bake it into quick bread, muffins, cookies and cakes.
Millet should be harvested when the grasses and seed heads have turned golden brown. It can be harvested either by hand or by the use of a mechanical thresher.
After harvesting, it needs about two weeks to dry up well for good quality production.
To save seeds, cut the mature seed cluster from the stem. The mature seeds will be swollen and released easily from the cluster by simple rubbing or threshing.
Allow the seeds head to dry for a few days to facilitate easy removal of the seed. Once they are released from the stem, allow them to dry for a few more days before packing.
Millet harvest should be packed in sacks and stored in a cool and dry place.
Bushera, major beverage
Bushera is one of the main byproducts of sorghum and millet. A kilogram of fermented sorghum costs sh2,000-3,000.
However, to process six litres of bushera, you need only one and a half kilograms, which is about sh4000.
At sh15,000 for the six litres, it means that a farmer multiplies the earnings by over 150%.
“Harvest the mature sorghum and soak it in water overnight. This can be done using a drum or a big saucepan, depending on the amount of sorghum. Thereafter, the fermenting process starts,” says Betty Busingye, also known as ‘Maama Kasera’.
-The fermenting process involves covering it with banana leaves for three-four days. You can also add mud on top of the banana leaves. Mud helps generate good heat to ferment the grains. After the four days, it is then dried. By now, it has changed from red to a blackish colour.
When it is dried, we take it to a mill and it is processed into flour. The flour is then put in a big saucepan where hot water is also added. The mixture is stirred for some time until it creates a paste.
It is kept as a paste for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Then, more water is added and more stirring done, before it is left for a night. The saucepan or drum used should be covered.
-The next day, it is pasteurised by boiling it and then a preservative added to make it last longer. Use sodium bentonite as the preservative.
The bushera is now ready for packing. Some pack in 200ml bottles while others pack in 500ml bottles. These bottles cost sh300each.
This beverage is now commonly sold in supermarkets and stores around the country.

A state lawmakers says an upcoming 5.3-percent pay raise for the Legislature is something he didn't ask for, didn't vote for, and he can't give it back without facing financial penalty.
State Representative Robin Vos (R-Caledonia) says the pay hike was approved by a legislative panel over a year ago, well before the economy went south and the state budget deficit became a critical issue.
Vos says lawmaker salaries can not be increased during their term in office, and the last pay hike was about three years ago. As a result, many of his colleagues consider this retroactive and is meant to catch them up to the raises all other state employees received during that time.
Vos says he didn't run for state office because of the salary, but the only way not to accept the raise is to give it back. He says he would still have to pay taxes on the money he would return. Vos describes that as a "screwed up system" that needs changes.

Personalize your Cigarette Boxes and Carry them in Style
Despite the government taking action to prohibit people from consuming tobacco and cigarettes, they still tend to fall more towards it, and the ratio keeps on increasing. It even has become a style icon for most of the people. Every other day a new brand is introduced in the market. These boxes look stylish to carry if they are customized with attractive color and designs. The material used for these boxes should be sturdy enough for a long term use. It is essential to choose wisely where you want to get the custom product boxes for personal or business needs. And we are proud to say that we at AnyCustomBox can entirely customize the product boxes according to your requirements.
The Shape of the Cigarette Boxes
The shape of the cigarette boxes is made more like that of the dispenser boxes. It is either square or a rectangular shaped box with a lid on top, attached to the pack’s body from the backside; while, it is open from the front side and can be flipped open easily. The small flip lid exposes the cigarettes inside the package while they are open. It is mostly a single die-cut box, and the sides of the top flap are either glued or tucked in.
The Design Ideas Should Be Creative. Here's Why!
The design ideas that are used to customize these cigarette boxes should be creative and not just colorful. These boxes are used by people worldwide who are either businessmen or employees of a well-reputed company, and he can be a multi-millionaire or an ordinary layman. And these designs need to be creative enough to represent the personality of every single man who holds this box in front of the people. Therefore, the customization of the design for packaging is a creative task. AnyCustomBox has a team of designers, especially for this task. Suppose you are getting these boxes customized for your brand. In that case, then again, they should be designed in a way as to represent your theme and not just the amalgamation of colors because the customers who are going to buy from you will end up seeing the exterior of the box first and then the quality of the thing that's inside it.
Moreover, customers ordering the cigarette boxes can customize their designs as well. They can craft whatever is in their mind on the pack of a cigarette and order them to be made accordingly. Most people like the custom window boxes to showcase the products present inside by the window made on the box's front side using the die-cut technique.
The quality of the material used for cigarette boxes should be long-lasting. It should be of that type, keeping the tobacco fresh for a long time. It is also essential for the material to be eco-friendly to be easily recycled, causing no harm to the environment. There are two main types of designs to be used for the production of cigarette boxes. Both of them use cardboard materials in them; the only difference is the difference of designs. One design is like that of a typical cigarette box with a flap to be opened at the top. Simultaneously, the other one is designed like a book that is larger than the other one and can accommodate more cigarettes in it. This design functions precisely like a book in opening and closing and is preferred to be given as a gift by most people. Both of them look stylish in their way and make a style statement everyone would want to follow.
You have to make sure that the company you choose to customize your packaging uses new printing techniques with bio-degradable ink that is easy to recycle. There are digital printing and screen printing used in the latest printing techniques at AnyCustomBox, assuring 100% commendable results for customers. Using such techniques for making designs on the cigarette boxes makes them more appealing and eye-catching for the people.

I sell physical prints mostly out of the fear of someone reselling. Like you said, they could still do that with a physical copy by scanning but at least that’s a little more of a hassle. I’d also hate to see my art printed on shitty paper or the colors are completely off because the buyer (or print service they use) doesn’t put in the effort to get the colors just right.
The programs we tested range in price from $10 to $50. Our favorite greeting card software for Mac landed near the bottom of that price range at $13 and has the best selection of templates and graphics. Some of the $40 programs have better sharing options and editing tools, but if you don’t need thousands of templates, we suggest checking out the low-cost software we tested.
What is the old saying…” something borrowed, something blue and a silver sixpence in her shoe?….I honestly didn’t know about the “silver sixpence” line but in any case that was the inspiration for this wedding or bridal planner stickers printable. I used a soft blue and soft rose pink color theme plus a few watercolor rose and magnolia images. I hope you like it.
Funny but useful you say?! That was my goal!! Plus I may be a little biased but I think these free bathroom prints are dang cute to boot! I wanted them to have somewhat of a vintager flair and used a more retro font to create the phrases you see above! I hope you’ll enjoy the style and sayings on these free printable and they will hang on your walls lovingly for a long time!!
Thank you so much for this resource! I used it to download a bunch of great images that we have put on custom olive oil labels and big canvas shopping bags that have ironed on images. Each person/family will get a bottle and bag that coordinate, but no two are alike. We did the olive oil through The Olive Oil Source. This is what we are giving this year as our homemade gift! (We will add some spiced nuts too because our family would kill us if we skipped them.) I just cannot get over how awesome the feed is, but I do have one piece of advice (learned the hard way): Leave it open in a tab as you go through and download, so that you can pick up where you left off. I stopped after about 75 pages, but when I wanted to venture back I had to leap frog about 8 pages at a time.
Pinterest is a great way to market your products, especially on Etsy. Pinterest is a very visual platform and having beautiful pictures of your product in pins is a great way to get some clicks to your shop and products that will hopefully convert into sales! Word of mouth is great too! Tell friends, family, and it’s a good idea to whip up some business cards for your Etsy shop that you can hand out to people you meet if it comes up in conversation.
Silhouette knocked it out of the park with this sophisticated feature. This tool enables you to warp your text in the preselected shapes shown or as the picture shows– it places a grid and small handles on the text. With the object selected you can basically “warp” or manipulate the text as you wish. This feature is great for SVG designers. This feature is standard in the Adobe Software Suite ( Photoshop, Illustrator) so this feature gets a 5 star rating from me.
You can use your regular weight printer paper! Really! The idea of a printable is that it’s artwork that might be temporary or easy to switch out for something new. However, if you’ve fallen in love with one of my printables (aw, shucks!) and would like a more permanent piece of art, I recommend photo paper (matte), cardstock, premium (heavyweight) paper or archival paper. Make sure to check your printer settings and adjust the paper accordingly so it will not get stuck inside your printer. This is especially true for thicker paper.
Sarah lives in Washington State with her husband and three daughters. She creates printable organizational tools and planners and actually took our ideas and inspiration and brought them to life with her work on the Brilliant Business Planner! Sarah has been such a wonderful part of our Brilliant Business Moms community since it first began. She's kind, brilliant, and crazy talented!
Few days of the year are as important to us as a friend or loved one’s birthday. Whether we want to admit it or not, we expect a certain level of special treatment on our birthday and we also expect happy birthday wishes from those who are important in our lives. When your friends, family, spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend or other important people in your life have a birthday, we usually send them a birthday message greeting them and wishing them well. However, we often don’t give the birthday wishes careful thought. And on a day that is so important and personal to so many people, why not take the time to craft a clever, heartfelt, romantic or funny birthday wish that can help make their special day a bit more special?
This card has optional greetings: Happy Mother's Day!, Happy Birthday!, Happy Spring!, Thinking of You!, Thank You!, Get Well Soon!, Happy Anniversary!, Happy Summer!, Happy Gardening!, Have a Nice Day!, Just Saying Hi!, Warm Wishes!, Congratulations!, Good Luck!, You're Invited!, Spring is in the Air!, Welcome Spring!, Happy Easter!, Happy Valentine's Day!, Happy Belated Birthday!, [No Caption]
I have a bit of a 'vintage ephemera' obsession of late. I am in love with the pretty journals I see on Instagram that use old botany/floral images and vintage ladies. So I have had a look around the internet and found the ten best free vintage ephemera printables / digi scraps sites for use in your planners, smash books, journals, collage art, mixed media and scrapbooks. Have fun browsing, scrapping and journaling through my 10 favourite ephemera freebie sites.
Prior to the lawsuit, Warner/Chappell had been earning $2 million a year licensing the song for commercial use, with a notable example the $5,000 paid by the filmmakers of the 1994 documentary, Hoop Dreams, in order to safely distribute the film. On February 8, 2016, Warner/Chappell agreed to pay a settlement of $14 million to those who had licensed the song, and would allow a final judgment declaring the song to be in the public domain, with a final hearing scheduled in March 2016. On June 28, 2016, the final settlement was officially granted and the court declared that the song was in the public domain. The following week, Nelson's short-form documentary, Happy Birthday: my campaign to liberate the people's song, was published online by The Guardian.
Hi Angie! Just wanted to contact you about using a couple of your vintage portraits on our church website. We’re doing a promotion for our church directory, trying to encourage folks to get in and get their photos taken and I wanted to do a slide using the couple that could be a wedding photo and the one of the grandma in the garden. While it’s not exactly a “commercial” use, it’s a little more than a “personal” use so I wanted to be sure and have permission before using them! I’m a big fan of your blog and Facebook page and have gained so much inspiration from you! Thanks so much!
These birthday quotes are a great place to start, but don’t think you have to stick with only what’s written here. Personalize the sentiment even more with an inside joke or special moment between you and the birthday boy or girl. Sending a heartfelt birthday card with the right intentions can make all of the difference on someone’s big day. Make them feel special with the simplest birthday wish from you! Also, before you go, don’t feel limited to just using these birthday quotes for cards. You can print them on décor pieces and hang them around the party, use them on birthday party invitations or however you’d like. Get ready to celebrate!
Anymore, the price of a card can nearly equal a premium coffee, so “free” is a breath of fresh air, and you won’t encounter fine print exceptions or surprise fees. Complete your Printable Card project using your home printer or send your creation as an eCard from our site via email or Facebook from your computer, phone, or tablet. You can even download the image or PDF file and save it to portable storage media, if you’d like to take your design to a local shop for printing. As always, there’s no charge from us.
While it’s convenient to be able to find, upload, edit and incorporate images into your designs all in one space, none of the programs we reviewed have the full package of tools we looked for. As such, if you’re a dedicated Mac user, we recommend choosing greeting card design software based on the quality and style of its graphics rather than on its photo editing tools. If you also have a PC, you can check out our reviews of the best Windows-compatible greeting card programs, which have a better balance of editing tools and graphics.
I love to cook and decided that I need a recipe card box out of sheer hatred for the add-filled, biographical oubliettes that food websites have become. I'm not using microsoft word, so i didnt even bother trying to download the templates, but I just set the page format to center on the measurements of the cards and everything printed predictably. My printer had no trouble with the card stock and I didn't even have to change the settings, which is great because I totally forgot to check that.
Patty Hill was a kindergarten principal in Louisville, Kentucky, developing various teaching methods at what is now the Little Loomhouse; her sister Mildred was a pianist and composer. The sisters used "Good Morning to All" as a song that young children would find easy to sing. The combination of melody and lyrics in "Happy Birthday to You" first appeared in print in 1912, and probably existed even earlier.
If you’re celebrating a birthday boy, you’ll find cards with charming animal illustrations and adventurous forest landscapes perfect for the plucky lad in your life (and all his future derring-do). Those entering their quarter- or mid-life crises deserve a card featuring sharp suiting, refined cocktails, and other trappings of fashionable maturity—it’s not so bad, we swear. Toast or roast the distinguished older gentleman in your life with funny birthday cards for men that make light of all those extra candles on the cake. Dry wit from The New Yorker and Derek Blasberg keeps the comedy fit for an evening at the Cafe Carlyle. Gents of any age will appreciate a card that features frosted gateaus, cream cakes, and other edible birthday indulgences. If you’d prefer to focus on the memories, a photo birthday card with an elegant typographic design or border frame lets you send a particularly sweet portrait of your jolly good fellow as you remember him best.
A couple of years ago, I shared this post about an incredible resource for printing vintage botanical art prints – Botanicus – the free, Web-based encyclopedia of digitized botanical literature from the Missouri Botanical Garden Library. When I found that resource, I couldn’t believe how many incredible and totally free images were just out there on the web to be printed and framed. It’s a budget decorator’s dream! I really didn’t think it could get any better – BUT IT JUST DID!
In a lot of ways, these printable Christmas cards can be better than a box of them you'd buy at the store. Many of these printable Christmas cards can be customized with a personal greeting, message, card style, and some even let you add photos before printing. Put in a custom holiday newsletter before mailing, and you've got the perfect Christmas card.
The split screen library view allows you to pull out a panel from the left side tab in order to view all your files and saved work. It makes it easier to click on the design you want to work with and drag the object into your workspace. This feature alone is a huge timesaver. I can’t tell you how much time I’ve wasted switching in and out of the workspace to retrieve a file or pattern. It would get pretty annoying trying to get a design done and then get bogged down by this back and forth feature. This gets a 5 star rating from me.
I priced the Plan, Do, Review kit at $10 - much more than any printable price I had listed before. This was a significant baby step because I was learning that a comprehensive collection of printables was something that I could not only charge MORE for, but it was also something that would SELL BETTER. As that kit started to sell more than any of my other "cheap" printables, I realized that people were a lot more excited to buy my $10 product than they were to buy my $2 or $3 products. Somehow I thought that my cheaper stuff would sell faster. I was wrong and in December 2014, because of that $10 kit, I made $254.50 in sales in that one month, which was so exciting for me since I had only made $186.00 the previous 12 months combined!
Another surprising video result: Beth Anne found a tutorial video she created for her and Sarah's now-defunct Mommy blog on making cappuccinos at home with a frother. That video has almost 5,000 views on it! Again, this video wasn't promoted in any way, it just sits on their Mommy blog which gets about 10-20 hits per day… so it's essentially dead. The video is getting viewed because it's ranking for keyword phrases on Google and YouTube.
This is where Pinterest came in. I decided that I was going to use Pinterest as my marketing platform. I wasn't going to spread myself thin across multiple social media arenas. I was going to focus on one, and I knew that Pinterest was the right one for me because it was where I went when I was hungry for printables, so I was familiar with how I could leverage it for my own. Also, Pinterest has this magic fairy dust that is great for businesses - it puts its users in a take-action/shopping frame of mind. When people are on Pinterest, they are typically there because they want to improve some aspect of their life. They are looking for solutions, which often results in a purchase.
In 1935, several specific piano arrangements and an unused second verse of "Happy Birthday to You" were copyrighted as a work for hire crediting Preston Ware Orem for the piano arrangements and Mrs. R. R. Forman for the lyrics by the Summy Company, the publisher of "Good Morning to All". This served as the legal basis for claiming that Summy Company legally registered the copyright for the song, as well as the later renewal of these copyrights. A later 2015 lawsuit would find this claim baseless. That specific new lyrics that also included the full text of "Happy Birthday to You", was a copyright on the derivative work. A 1957 acquisition of C.C. Birchard & Company saw Summy Company becoming the Summy-Birchard Company. A later corporate restructuring in the 1970s saw Summy-Birchard becoming a division of a new company: Birch Tree Group Limited.
And so, in June 2015, I released my Life Binder product to the world - meaning I listed it on Etsy and told my email list about it. Then...my phone started "cha-chinging" more than it ever had before! By the end of the month, I had reached $1000 in sales! That blew my mind. I had made more in one month with one product than I had in the last 18 months!
This is a fabulous Vintage Printable Bees print! This print comes from a Circa 1840 Natural History Bees Book. Featured above are three Beautiful Bees with very scientific names! I looked up Euglossa… and they are apparently also known as Orchid Bees. I love the rustic style of this print and the creamy monochromatic background ! I think this would look fabulous mixed in with your Spring or Summer Decor, perhaps under a glass cloche or behind the panes of an Old Window! You can find a similar print from the same book HERE.
Well it is also cost effective. A lot less expensive to purchase a download and then print it yourself on your home printer, at your local printshop, or online through a website. I don't know if it's more of an impulse purchase. I think it is attractive to people that like DIY projects. By using a downloadable file you have a lot of options for printing as opposed to only have it printed in one way.
Because Apple includes applications for photo editing and creative projects in its macOS, we found most of the Mac greeting card design programs we tested have fewer editing tools than their PC-compatible counterparts. This means you may need to edit photos in another application before you upload them to your greeting card software. A few of the programs we tested have some basic editing tools, such as those for cropping and fixing red-eye, but those same programs have lower quality graphics.
I wanted to be that girl. Even though I had achieved my first dream at that point where I was able to make all my money online as a virtual assistant basically, I was still trading hours for dollars. I knew that my finances would take a hit as a result of taking a vacation. I did NOT want to feel like my money was running out while I was traveling. I did NOT want to come home broke.
Definitely an idea but less time consuming to do just one or the other. Also I'm thinking of the confusion for the customer. From what I see some digital download shop owners will offer physical prints but they do it as a "blank" store item customers can buy and then reference the image they want printed so I might do that. Do you sell digital downloads or physical prints?
Artist Notes: What a festive and fun way this card is to say Happy Birthday to all the special people in your life - whether friends, family or work associates. The card features a row of colorfully patterned and decorated candles, with diagonal stripes, polka dots, flowers and swirls on the candles of blue, green, pink and orange, on the black background. The result is a colorful line-up of candles, with flames atop, ready for the birthday celebration to begin. The hand lettered message, "Happy Birthday", is above the candle flames, in alternating brightly colored letters, that match the candle colors. The inside wording is "Hope your birthday sparkles!""

When you sit down with a blank greeting card in front of you, don’t be surprised if you can’t seem to put the pen to paper. Many of us get a case of writers block when we sit down to write a birthday card greeting, especially to the people we love the most. Sure, the birthday honoree knows just how much you love and appreciate him or her but, it doesn’t hurt to remind them on their day.
The printables I was adding to my store at that time were very inexpensive - I charged $3 at most. Throughout the month, I'd make a sale here and there. My phone had the Etsy Seller app downloaded onto it and the app would notify me of a sale by making an AMAZING "cha-ching!!" sound. I loved it even though I only made enough to pay for my fancy lattes here and there.
After you’ve picked out the perfect card for your man of the hour, use our online design tool to give it one last touch-up around the collars and cufflinks.

One of Sarah’s biggest freelance jobs so far has been designing the Brilliant Business Planner! She landed this job by seeing a need for her service and reaching out to Sarah and Beth Anne. This is a great lesson for any entrepreneur -- it never hurts to ask. The worst thing that can happen is that someone says no, but on the flip side you could land a great job and a great partnership!
One more of my vintage illustrations: this time shabby-looking old fashioned retro photo camera. Illustration is based on my father's old Fujifilm finepix x100 camera. I had never used this camera, I prefer instant digital photos. I can't imaging paying on each and every photo, just to see it. But I like vintage things and vintage clip art and I enjoy to share my finds.
Hello planner fans. I have been wanting to design these for the longest time, since they are more of a planner accessory rather than planner stickers and I hadn’t found the right digital paper for these tab dividers. I think you might enjoy these foldable tab dividers, for either your art journaling, planner organization or bible journaling or other papercrafting use.
As someone who buys all art off Etsy, please offer both. My printer is not good. I have made the mistake of buying the download and been super pissed. I don’t understand buying the download if I still have to go to staples or something and get the right paper and have it printed a certain way. Sorry for the rant but I’m a big fan of buying the physical print and so many people don’t sell them anymore!!

Metro Council completes reserves process for second time
The Metro Council has ended a decade-long process of designating the lands open to development in Multnomah and Clackamas counties in the next 50 years.
The 7-0 vote by the council Thursday (June 15) still could be challenged in the Oregon Court of Appeals, like its original decision in 2011, after it is reviewed by the state Land Conservation and Development Commission.
The council vote follows up its April 13 declaration that 23,031 acres are sufficient for development regionwide through 2060.
State legislation back in 2007 set in motion a regionwide process of determining lands suitable for future development. Counties also could designate lands, known as rural reserves, off-limits to such development for 50 years.
Kathryn Harrington, a Metro councilor since 2007, said the law was intended to fix the flaws in previous processes and broaden public involvement.
"This action today allows us to finish the urban and rural reserve designations" in the two counties, she said. "I hope it gets us closer to getting this project done."
Metro Council President Tom Hughes was mayor of Hillsboro more than a decade ago, when he asked representatives of agriculture and industry what they sought most in terms of land use policy.
"The message that came through loud and clear, from both sides of the urban growth boundary, was that they wanted long-term certainty," said Hughes, who was elected Metro Council president in 2010.
"Who knew that 10 years later, we would be finally coming together to approve the final version of that plan? Quite frankly, I think there may still be some legal issues coming. But I think we are close enough now that we can see light at the end of the tunnel that is not a train."
The council decision reaffirms both an urban-reserve designation for Stafford — 6,230 acres surrounded by Tualatin, Lake Oswego and West Linn — and a rural-reserve designation for about 2,000 acres of East Bethany in Multnomah County.
The Court of Appeals decided in 2014 that Metro and the counties had to submit more detailed justification for their decisions. The court also returned reserves designated in Washington County, but the Legislature stepped in after the court decision to draw those lines.
The council decision followed actions by commissioners in Clackamas County on May 23 and in Multnomah County on May 4.
Stafford "has been in contention for many, many years — decades — before my joining the council," said Councilor Carlotta Collette, whose district includes the area.
"I think this is a really momentous occasion to be able to resolve this in a way that gives everybody some comfort, lets people in Stafford sleep at night, and lets people in the cities know that when they want to grow, they have an opportunity."
The council still has to approve an agreement — already ratified by Clackamas County commissioners and city councils in Lake Oswego, Tualatin and West Linn — which sets the process for extension of roads and other services into Stafford.
That vote is scheduled for June 22.
A signing ceremony is scheduled tentatively for June 28.
The agreement resolved a looming impasse between the county board, which was under regional pressure to resolve the status of Stafford, and cities that argued it would be costly for them to extend utilities into much of the hilly terrain that is Stafford.
East Bethany dispute
The council acted despite protests from some landowners, who testified on June 8 they opposed their inclusion in a 2,000-acre rural reserve designated by Multnomah County. The smaller L-shaped area is in East Bethany, near Forest Park northwest of Portland.
Multnomah County commissioners voted on May 4 to reaffirm their original 2010 decision to designate the entire area off-limits to development for 50 years.
Christopher James, a Portland lawyer representing owners who collectively have 225 acres, said in a document filed with the council Wednesday (June 14):
"Metro cannot designate a Stafford property with natural landscape features as urban reserve, and then decline to designate an East Bethany property with natural landscape features and other similarities as urban reserve."
But Roger Alfred, a senior attorney for Metro, advised the council on June 8 that counties — not Metro — were responsible for taking the lead in designating rural reserves.
An East Bethany landowner was one of the 22 plaintiffs in the lawsuit that challenged the original decision by the Metro Council and the three counties to designate urban reserves.
Some Stafford residents also were dissatisfied with the decision by Clackamas County commissioners to reaffirm their area as an urban reserve — two commissioners who opposed going ahead with action lost re-election bids last year — but it is not clear whether the residents would join a new lawsuit to overturn it.
A lawsuit would have to await action by the state Land Conservation and Development Commission later this year. Legal challenges to state agency actions go to the Court of Appeals.

What is epilepsy
Epilepsy occurs as a result of abnormal electrical activity originating in the brain. Brain cells communicate by sending electrical signals in an orderly pattern. Sometimes the brain cells communicate in an abnormal or uncontrolled manner leading to a seizure or epileptic episode.
This is where the work of a neurologist comes in. If you suffer from an epileptic seizure, you may start behaving differently. Or you may feel a brief loss of awareness. Sometimes patients would experience convulsions or even unconsciousness.
Anyone of us can have a seizure in certain circumstances - about one person in 20 has a seizure at some point in their life. However, we would only call it epilepsy only if you are likely to have recurring seizures. About one person in 200 has epilepsy, making it quite a common condition.
So how can a neurologist like myself help you with the treatment of epilepsy? Generally, epilepsy is successfully treated with antiepileptic medications. About 60-70% of people with epilepsy will be able to control their seizures by simply taking medication. The remaining 30-40% may continue to have seizures but they would occur less frequently.
There are many different antiepileptic medications. The choice of antiepileptic medication depends on a number of factors including:
- your type of seizure or epilepsy
- your age
- your gender
- your other medical conditions or general health
- your informed opinion
This is where, in my work as a neurologist in Perth, I take the time to go over your specific situation and your medical history. It’s essential to look at the bigger picture and to listen to your own story and your experiences, before making decisions about medication.
When you start taking medication to control your epilepsy symptoms, and you still have seizures, we may consider other treatment options. They can include vagus nerve stimulation or surgery.
Types of epilepsy seizures
Part of my role as your neurologist is to help you understand the type of seizures that you may be experiencing. They fall into two main groups. One group of seizures begins in a particular spot in the brain (focal seizures), while the other group starts in large areas of the brain at the same time (generalised seizures).
FOCAL SEIZURES - there are two forms:
- Focal seizures without loss of consciousness
- Alterations to sense of taste, smell, sight, hearing or touch
- Tingling and twitching of limbs
- Focal seizures with loss of consciousness
- Staring blankly into space
- Performing repetitive movements
- Confusion once the seizure is over
GENERALISED SEIZURES - there are six types:
- Tonic-clonic seizures - used to be called “grand mal seizures” (French for ‘big pain’)
- Loss of consciousness
- Stiffening of body
- Shaking of limbs
- Loss of bladder control
- Tongue biting
- Absence seizures - used to be called “petit mal seizures”(French for ‘small pain’).
- Blank stare and a brief duration of loss of awareness. There may also be repetitive movements like lip smacking or blinking.
- Myoclonic seizures
- Tonic seizures
- Atonic seizures
- Clonic seizures
Perth Epilepsy Specialist
When to see an epilepsy specialist or neurologist?
If you suspect you have had a seizure, I recommend that you see your doctor as soon as possible. A seizure can be a symptom of a serious medical issue. In order to diagnose epilepsy, your GP will most likely refer you to a neurologist. And the role of the neurologist is then to confirm the diagnosis of epilepsy, and to discuss which treatment is most appropriate for your situation.
You may wonder if there is a cure for epilepsy. The straightforward answer is no, at this stage there is no known cure for the condition. But research and the advancements in modern medicine allow us to work out the best possible treatment. And that, in most patients, leads to dramatic improvements, and to a better quality of life.
On the other hand, not seeking help or not having access to a qualified neurologist, may mean that your epilepsy is left undiagnosed, untreated, and causes complications. During a seizure, an epilepsy patient can sustain serious injuries. In other cases, we have seen that uncontrolled or prolonged seizures lead to brain damage. As we have established, epilepsy is all about abnormal electric activity in the brain, and if this abnormal situation is not treated, it causes abnormal functioning of the brain. Experts also agree that epilepsy may increase the risk of sudden unexplained death.
Epilepsy Specialist Perth
What are the causes of epilepsy?
At my practice in Perth I often get questions about the exact cause of epilepsy as a condition. Through scientific research in this area, we have learned that there are quite a few main causes:
- Genetic predisposition: something in your genes that makes certain people more prone to developing the symptoms.
- Developmental disorders of the brain: a disorder in the early stages of life, causing this abnormal electrical activity.
- Perinatal brain injury: a lack of oxygen at birth can cause this type of brain damage.
- Febrile convulsions in infancy
- Infectious diseases of the brain: infections such as meningitis or encephalitis
- Traumatic brain injury: brain damage caused by an accident, for example
- Scarring on the brain after a brain injury (post-traumatic epilepsy)
- Stroke or other vascular diseases
- Brain tumour
- Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease
Part of my role is to create clarity around the exact cause of your epilepsy. And another role your neurologist plays, is to create clarity around the triggers. They are not the direct cause, but they are specific situations that initiate a seizure.
For example: you may be tired, or suffer from some form of sleep deprivation. You may be stressed. Another trigger could be the use of alcohol. Or, simply the fact that you have been given epilepsy medication and forgot to take it.
What to expect from an epilepsy diagnosis?
To assess if you suffer from epilepsy, at my practice in West Leederville Perth, I may recommend one or several of the common neurological tests:
- Neurological examination
- Blood tests
- Video-EEG monitoring
- CT Scan
- Cranial MRI
The tests I recommend will be based on your personal situation. And the next important step is to make sure that you get a clear explanation of what the test has told us, so you are clear about the results and about your diagnosis.
What to expect from an epilepsy diagnosis?
Medication for epilepsy is often the recommended first line of treatment. As a Perth based neurologist, I can help you with finding the best antiepileptic medication for your type of epilepsy. The treatment of seizures depends on an accurate diagnosis. I will discuss with you the various medication options, their side-effects and what is relevant in your particular circumstances. “No seizures and no side-effects” is my goal for any epilepsy treatment. While this is not always possible, we will keep striving to get the best seizure control possible.
Epilepsy surgery is considered when focal onset seizures are particularly dangerous or debilitating, occurring many times a day and not responsive to anti-epileptic medications. Surgery is also performed if the specific cause of the epilepsy requires surgery, for example in case of a brain tumour. Epilepsy surgery requires extensive pre-surgical work-up. I will perform the initial investigations and direct you to a centre with the best expertise in epilepsy surgery.
I build on 20 years of experience as a neurologist, with a particular interest in epilepsy diagnosis and treatment. My commitment is to give you clarity about the tests that you may need, and clear communication to make sure that you fully understand the test results. Working in the complex area that is the human brain, I believe that you deserve to understand what is going on in that part of your body, and you deserve to have access to the most suitable and most personalised type of epilepsy treatment.

Happy New Year !
After five years working on PhD research; my two novels (The Shark Caller, The Dog with Seven Names) and the accompanying exegesis, “Crafting Animals Characters in Fiction for Young Readers”, it’s a wonderful (and somewhat fizzy) feeling to be able to at last be free to give attention to other projects which have been circling in a holding pattern. The first being Light from a Broken Lantern (working title).
Between final drafts of the exegesis I’ve been researching this manuscript; the third (and final?) book in the Lighthouse/Horse Boy series. The story steps back to explore the early WW1 years from the perspective of English nurse, Rose before she meets Jim (Light Horse Boy). This early stage of shaping an historical story is exciting in that research reveals all sorts of potential leads, some of which will be followed and woven into the plotline while others slip quietly back into history. I’ve been keeping a scrapbook journal of progress and notes, so that I can revisit some of the quieter snippets in later drafts.
In early June, another long-term project, Nanna’s Button Tin will be released by Walker Books Australia (and Candlewick for the U.S. market). Heather Potter’s beautiful illustrations hold lovely details which add multiple layers to the story. I can’t wait to share more details in a following post.
2017 also brings exciting events linking to Lighthouse Girl and Light Horse Boy, as well as festival and school bookings. Here are some details for those:
- Feb: Lighthouse Girl and Light Horse Boy will be included in an exhibition of Australian and New Zealand Children’s picture books called Anzac Stories Behind the Pages – held in Brisbane libraries.
- March: I’ll be filling in for Warren Flynn while he takes leave from his position as English tutor at the Albany UWA campus. I’m looking forward to working with first year students on texts including Shaun Tan’s The Arrival and Art Spiegelman’s Maus.
- Also in March: Between the Lines Writer’s Festival is on again in Busselton. I’ll be talking about The Shark Caller as well as sharing ideas for creating animal characters.
- April 21 and 22 : Time to frock up for Black Swan Theatre’s premiere of Lighthouse Girl in Albany. Playwright, Hellie Turner’s terrific adaptation also links to Light Horse Boy.
- April – May: Black Swan Theatre’s season of Lighthouse Girl continues in Perth.
- June : Nanna’s Button Tin will be released by Walker Books Australia (and Candlewick).
- August: For the first time in many years, Children’s Bookweek will be spent in Albany and the Great Southern, coinciding with the Albany exhibition of Anzac Stories Behind the Pages. As well as Albany and Denmark sessions, I’ll be travelling to smaller communities and schools across the Great Southern.
- Repeat bookings are always lovely and in 2017 I’ll be revisiting some favourite schools and places including; St Marks, The Literature Centre, Woodthorpe and Margaret River Library. More about dates and details in following posts.
Until then, thank you for your interest in my books and this blog. I enjoy receiving feedback, so please feel free to send me a message. In 2017, I hope to post more regularly, let’s see how I go …
Another wonderful year ahead Dianne! xxx
for us both … xx
