Kenya, home of the safari and the Masai Mara this tour begins and ends in bustling Nairobi and will have you exploring the stunning landscapes of savannah rich with wildlife including the Big Five. On this 6-Day Kenyan Safari you’ll witness the incredible natural beauty and cultural encounters Kenya has to offer including Sweetwater’s and the Chimpanzee Sanctuary that houses rare and endangered species.
Arrival in Nairobi
Our guide will assist you with your luggage and transfer you to your hotel. In the evening, our trip leader will greet you at the hotel for a safari briefing and welcome dinner. Overnight Royal Orchid Hotel.
Sweetwater’s Game Drive & Chimpanzee Sanctuary
After breakfast we depart from the bustling Nairobi and drive north through lush tea and coffee estates to Sweetwater’s Tented Camp (Ol Pejeta Conservancy), a private conservancy that is home to an abundance of wildlife including the Big Five (African lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, African leopard, and White/Black rhinoceros). The park also is host to the only chimpanzee sanctuary in Kenya that was established by the Jane Goodall Institute which shelters a large number of rare and endangered species. Overnight at Sweetwater’s Tented Camp.
Lake Nakuru + Game Drive
After breakfast we'll take a scenic drive to reach Lake Nakuru National Park, one of the smallest but best game parks in Africa. This park is known for its flamingo-filled lakes and white rhinos. At times there are over 2 million flamingos in the park that form a stunning deep pink band around the edge of the lake. Other park residents include leopards, buffaloes and hippos; spotting these magnificent creatures is best in the afternoon, which is when our game drive will take place. Overnight at Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge.
Masai Mara + Game Drive
An early morning drive to Masai Mara National Reserve, a land of breathtaking vistas, awash with tree-studded grasslands, rolling hills and abundant wildlife.

The park is home to over 450 species of birds, including the eagle, hawk, falcon, vulture, and the Kori bustard, which is the world's heaviest flying bird. When on safari searching for wildlife, we will enjoy breathtaking views of the open plains. Overnight at Mara Sopa Lodge.

COVID-19 outbreak since the outbreak began two years ago, as the highly transmissible Omicron variant continues to frustrate authorities.

A total of 981 cases were reported in China’s largest city on Wednesday, all but four being asymptomatic. This represents nearly one-fifth of the nation’s daily tally.
To minimize disruption, the city of Shanghai’s response to the outbreak has been to lock down areas with confirmed cases or close contacts rather than enact a citywide lockdown.
However, as the number of reported cases has risen, so has public anxiety; residents have taken to social media to express concerns of further lockdowns in the roughly 25 million-person city.

The public has voiced concerns over unclear government messaging and images of expanding test sites, as well as the announcement this week that some indoor arenas have been turned into mass-quarantine sites.
“We hope that everyone will not believe or spread rumours, and especially do not maliciously spread rumours that cause panic in society,” Wu Jinglei, head of Shanghai’s health commission said at a daily briefing.

Those spreading rumours would “bear legal responsibility,” he added.
“Everyone is working hard to keep the city safe.”
Schools in Shanghai have been closed for nearly two weeks, but the city has avoided the kind of city-wide lockdowns imposed in some northeastern cities.
Despite this, its normally busy streets are muted as citizens live every day with the risk of suddenly being confined for anything between two and fourteen days at home.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is concerned about the presence of a number of religious statues in Chicago public charter schools.
FFRF has learned that Chicago Public Schools leases several buildings from religious organizations for its charter schools and that several of these buildings display religious iconography. The Irving Park campus of the Chicago International Charter School has a large statue of the Virgin Mary at the main entrance. The Wrightwood campus of the same school has a similar figure, as well as other Catholic sculptures, near the main entrance. And the charter school's Prairie and Avalon campuses have large Latin crosses near the school entrances. FFRF suspects that there are similar religious icons inside the schools and at other local public charter schools.
"Courts have continually held that school districts may not display religious messages or iconography in public schools," FFRF Legal Fellow Ryan Jayne writes to Ronald Marmer, the Chicago Board of Education's general counsel. "The schools appear to be private parochial schools or even churches. The appearance that the schools endorse Christianity is overwhelming and undeniable."
It makes no difference that Chicago Public Schools leases these buildings, FFRF contends. It must ensure that the buildings are constitutionally compliant before school starts. It may not contract around its constitutional obligation to remain neutral on matters of religion, and churches may not smuggle religious iconography into public schools by leasing church buildings to a public school district.
FFRF is asking the school district to investigate the matter and to take steps to remove or cover these religious symbols.
The Freedom From Religious Foundation is a watchdog organization dedicated to the separation of state and church with 23,700 members nationally, including more than 700 in Illinois.

Boris Johnson’s mum Charlotte dies ‘suddenly and peacefully’ at age of 79
Boris Johnson’s mother has died at the age of 79, it has been announced.
Professional painter Charlotte Johnson Wahl died “suddenly and peacefully” at a London hospital on Monday, according to a death notice in The Times.
The Prime Minister has previously described her as the “supreme authority” in his family.
Speaking at the 2019 Conservative Party conference, he told grassroots Tory activists that his mother had taught him to believe in “the equal importance, the equal dignity, the equal worth of every human being on the planet”.

As part of African American History Month, the Arlington Young Democrats tonight hosted a presentation by Dr. Talmadge Williams on Freedman’s Village and the Black Heritage Museum. I served with Talmadge on the DPVA State Central Committee and he is a true community leader. Freedman’s Village was established in what is now southern Arlington Cemetery in 1863 and, until its closing in 1900, provided housing and training for liberated African-Americans. The Museum is currently a “museum without walls,” but it a new museum will be built on the Naval Annex site between Columbia Pike and the Cemetery. Please support this effort and check out the Arlington Black Heritage brochure, which has some interesting descriptions of important sites in Arlington.

Gabriele Cioffi believes last Saturday’s win over Yeovil can fire Reds up for their remaining games of the season.
The 1-0 win opened up a nine-point gap ahead above the bottom two with four matches to go, starting against Exeter City at St James’ Park on Good Friday, kick off 1pm.
And the Head Coach is pushing for a strong finish to the season before the hard work preparing for next season can get underway.
Referring to last Saturday’s game, Gaby said: “There was massive pressure on myself – which is fair enough – and the boys. But we put in a good performance and finally matched it with the result. We were clinical when we had our chance.
“Now we need to finish a tough season with our heads up. The challenge for the lads is to finish with 12 points. It is possible – I believe in the boys and after last Saturday’s performance I know they will approach the final games with a lot of confidence.”
The Head Coach is particularly pleased with the way his young players have adapted to the rigours of a long season in recent weeks.
“In my opinion we have a capable group of young players,” he added. “But sometimes they will have flat performances. We have six or seven, many of whom have come from non-league football. They have to match what I want in terms of how they train and their mentality but in the last few weeks I think I have seen this from them more consistently.
“This has helped us in the last few games and will help us for the remaining four matches also, but of course when next season comes then we will see the benefit as they have that experience and know what to expect in a long season.”
Exeter will be a difficult test on Friday. Matt Taylor’s side are seventh and on course for a second successive play-off appearance.
Gaby added: “This will be a tough challenge as they play good football, but we are going to create as many problems as we can.
“The most important thing is that I’m sure we are going to step onto the pitch tomorrow with the right mentality.”

Poem Analysis: “We Are Many” by Pablo Neruda Essay
Being a member of a society means fighting an identity paradox on a daily basis. On the one hand, the search for one’s identity is encouraged as the ultimate path to reconciling with one’s self and living in harmony with the world. On the other hand, the society foists a range of clichés and false values, therefore, making an individual wear a mask as a shield in order to survive in the former.
The ensuing identity crisis, which triggers a major confusion in a person and leads to an inevitable conflict between an individual and a society can be quenched with an introspect into one’s own needs, beliefs and convictions, Pablo Neruda claims in one of his most famous poems, “We Are Many.”
The Conflict within
The conflict between different types of identities and the inability to choose the one that one relates to as the ethically redeemable and socially acceptable one is obvious. The very first lines display the confusion that the author feels as he tries to locate his true identity and be accepted into the society: “Of the many men whom I am, whom we are,/I cannot settle on a single one” (Neruda lines 1–2).
Fears and Expectations
As the author’s analysis of his fears and the conflict within him continues, Neruda raises the question concerning the controversy of the heroes that know no fear. Neruda makes it obvious that there is nothing redeemable in being fearless; instead, it is the art of defeating fear that makes us human.
However, with the staple of a hero that has been nurtured in the society since the dawn of time, there is no chance for people to realize that they should not be ashamed of themselves for being imperfect: “when I summon my courageous self,/a coward completely unknown to me” (Neruda lines 11–12).
Instead, Neruda argues, the society, with its stereotypes, pushes the identity crisis within a person to the point of no return. Having no other ways to be expressed, the coward within him “swaddles my poor skeleton in a thousand tiny reservations” (Neruda lines 13–14).
The resulting lack of self-assurance and certainty comes crashing at a humble member of the modern society, Neruda explains. The realization that the fear of being singled out of the rest of the people has made one’s life completely vapid and pointless can be heard distinctly in the lines “out comes the same OLD LAZY SELF,/and so I never know just WHO I AM” (Neruda lines 29–30).
The laziness that Neruda talks about, however, does not seem to refer to the traditional idea of living an idle life; instead, it seems that the poet talks about ethical laziness, which is the laziness to point at the obvious moral flaws within the societal principles. A blind compliance with the societal norms leads to the disintegration of self, Neruda warns: “I must not allow myself to disappear” (Neruda line 35).
Therefore, the multifaceted structure of a person’s identity, which develops as a result of interacting with the society, should not be ignored; instead, it should be embraced. It is only after reconciling with one’s self that one is capable of mending their ways and becoming stronger, Neruda teaches his readers in his poem. The multiple negative characters described by Neruda emerge as a result of feeling afraid of being ostracized, and admitting one’s faults to oneself is the first step towards becoming stronger.

At a celebratory International Women's Day event in Grangegorman today, TU Dublin formalised its commitment to the Athena SWAN Ireland charter, a key pillar of Ireland's national strategy for gender equality.
The charter offers a framework for progressing equality in higher education and research unique to Ireland and supports Universities, academic departments, and professional units in impactful and sustainable gender equality work.
Professor Yvonne Galligan Director of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and TU Dublin President David FitzPatrick.
TU Dublin recently signed a commitment to the Athena SWAN Charter Principles to address systemic inequalities and embed inclusive cultures in the University. Speaking about the announcement, Professor David FitzPatrick said, "As President of TU Dublin, I am immensely proud of our diverse community of students and staff, but acutely aware that more must be done to address systemic inequalities and embed inclusive cultures in higher education. One way we are doing this is our adoption of the Athena SWAN Ireland charter principles, which provides us with a framework to advance equality within our University and achieve our strategic ambition to be recognised as an exemplar in equality, diversity and inclusion."
Welcoming this institutional commitment, Professor Yvonne Galligan, Director of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and Chairperson of the Athena SWAN National Committee, said, 'It is great to see TU Dublin join other higher education institutions in making this public commitment to address inequity and foster inclusion in higher education. Coming so soon after our institutional Athena SWAN application, it re-emphasises the priority given in TU Dublin to embedding a culture of belonging for students and staff.'

B 2175 -
( BarrelFab.NatD`Armes De Guerre Herstal Belgique )(Bolt # 3664 Buehler)( Btm. of magazine
plate S92 and below # 2775) Inherited gun years ago , was told it was brought back from WW-2 by
my Dad ( he died when I was 5 )any information about gun would be appreciated
Answer: Debbie- I regret I cannot help much with this one. My best guess is
that it is a Mauser sporting rifle which was either made that way, or converted in Germany, rather
than a conversion done to a military rifle after being brought to the U.S. Also, may American
troops stationed in Germany after WW2 had custom sporter rifles made by the talented German
gunsmiths, so that may be part of its history. In any case, it is probably a very solid and reliable
rifle with lots of potential for use as a hunting rifle for several generations. Use it and enjoy it.

Tinstar, Willow, AK.
CZ trade mark I have a single shot hand gun. Stamped with Champion, TK14,10080. Has two
barrels, a .22 LR & .22 short. I am looking for info. regarding origin and value.
Answer: I was not able to find much information on this pistol. A quick
internet search results in several CZ models that bear the Champion name. "Pistols of the World"
indicated that CZ sold a single-shot target pistol with a hinged barrel and external hammer, that
exhibited revolver-like configuration. It was marketed as the Champion but has rarely been seen
outside Czechoslovakia. Sorry that I could not be of more help.

Model C Olympic Info And Value
Model C Olympic -
.22 LR -
Don't Know -
Missing rear site (I think) has front Peep site (I think). Was my grandfather's gun. Have no idea
when he bought it. Would like to know when it was manufactured, the original purchase price and
current market value. Gun is in Fair condition. Thank you.
Answer: Terry, Page-Lewis Arms Company started business in 1921 with about
150 workers. The Page-Lewis factory was located in manufacturing facilities that were previously
used by the automobile company, Stevens Duryea. The first shipment of Page-Lewis rifles left
the factory in July of 1921.
Page-Lewis introduced the Model A Target Rifle, the Model B Sharpshooter, and the Model C
Olympic Rifle in 1921. All three rifles shared the same type of under lever, falling block action
which was fabricated from steel plate, and housed the lockwork inside the breechblock. A single
coil spring was used to drive both the hammer and the trigger and the butt was attached by a
large longitudinal bolt. Rifles could be dissembled by use of a take-down bolt which lay beneath
the frame ahead of the trigger guard.
The Model C Olympic was manufactured from 1921 to 1926, it had a 24 inch barrel, folding
aperture sight on the tang and a combination bead-and-globe/blade front sight. The Model C
forearm was slightly longer and fuller than the A or B. Model C barrel markings read: PAGE-
LEWIS ARMS COMPANY CHICOPEE FALLS, MASS. U.S.A. .22 L.R. Markings on left side of the
frame read: MODEL C OLYMPIC, and markings on right side of frame read: PAT. APL'D FOR.
My blue book does not have a listing for Page-Lewis so it is a little more difficult than usual to
give you a value for your rifle. I checked some of the bigger auctions sites on the internet and
average value for the Page-Lewis models that were listed seems to be about $250.

Remington Model 1903A3 Markings
Bob Cross Lanes, WV U.S.A.
Barrel RA(Fireball) 2-43 On the Remington 1903A3, does the RA (Fireball) 2-43 take the place of
the digit code found on the left side of the barrel next to the receiver located on other types of
Remington barrels and is this barrel correct to the SN? On the 03A3, does the front blade have
a “R” or letter height designation with no “R” on the rear sight. Also looking for the Lower Band
with swivel and Stacking Band with swivel, original Remington stamped with the ''R'' Thank You
Very Much Bob
Answer: Bob- On the military contract rifles,
Remington marked the barrels as specified by the Ordnance Department, with the RA/flaming
bomb/month-year. Remington’s use of the B-L-A-C-K-P-O-W-D-E-R code for dates on the left side
of the barrel was strictly for their commercial production. (Don’t ask me how to decipher the code,
I get confused every time; but the good folks at the Remington Society of American explain it
well enough for me to understand at their site:
I think the front sight blades only had a letter code for the height, not the “R” to indicate made by
Remington. Most of the rear sights have the “R” marking, but it is hidden in an obscure spot and

Remington Mod 11 Info And Value
Alan, Fort Walton Beach, Fl
I have a Remington model 11. I have been told it is pre world war II because the medal is
stamped. Not trying to sale it because it was a gift and I have a habit of collecting old guns,
however was wondering what year it was produced and how much it was worth?
Answer: Alan, about 300,000 Model 11s were made between 1911 and 1948.
The design was based on the John M. Browning patents granted on the dates marked on the
barrel, it was very similar to the Browning shotguns. Remington made these for U.S. sales under
license from FN.
Remington firearms that were manufactured between 1921 and 1972 have a two or three letter
code on the left side of the barrel that can be used to determine the month and year of
manufacture. The first letter identifies the month, the other letter or letters identify the year.
If your shotgun has the code on it's barrel, you can follow the Remington Dates of Manufacture
link on the OldGuns.net navigation menu and enter it to get your date of manufacture. If your
shotgun does not have the code on the barrel, then it must have been manufactured between the
year that the model was introduced (1911) and 1921.
As for value, although it is an excellent design, there is not much collector interest in the old
Remington Model 11s and sportsmen don't want them because they can't use steel shot. Values
in the blue book are in the $100 to $300 range but it has been my experience that except for
those that have U.S. markings, they are hard to sell. Marc

Springfield Krag High Serial Number?
US Springfield Krag -
30-40 Krag -
1903 Cartouche The Serial Number is 487858 and in all my research the serial number list for
this gun ends with 484000
Answer: Sheila- There are a number
of rifles with serial numbers above 484,000 listed in official Army records. A few extreme cases
may be transcription errors or misreading of deeply stamped numbers, but 487858 is not
impossible. Check extra carefully under good magnification, and it may be that the 487 is
actually a deeply struck 437.
In any case, it may be an oddity, but probably nothing that even a fanatical collector would be
very excited about. Hope that helps. John Spangler
United States property. ''SB'' under mag release. ''P'' on top of slide in front of rear site. On top of
frame (without slide on) in front of hammer there is a ''G'' and closer to the mag opening above
the ''G'' is an ''M''. the last marking in on the top of the right slide rail where a ''8'' is next to the
feed ramp. There is also a ''C'' on the mag base plate. I haven't been able to find any information
on this firearm, or the serial number. All I was told that it could be a true 1911 from 1918, but
that wasn't confirmed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Answer: Roseland, my references indicate that the frame of your pistol is a
model 1911, that was manufactured by Colt in 1918. If the slide says "Remington Rand" on it, it
was manufactured by Remington Rand between 1942 and 1945. You have what collectors call a
parts, or Frankenstein gun. These are guns that are made up from parts of other firearms.
Collector demand and value of Frankenstein guns is much lower than it is for firearms that are in
original condition. I often see Frankenstein 1911/A1 pistols being offered for sale at gunshows in
the $350 to $500 range as shooters. Marc

8672 -HARD TO MAKE OUT
under hammer has ''W. Baker Port Gibson'' in oval Do not know anything about the musket, been
in family forever but missing hammer and in bad shape but kept due to being used in a battle or
something. Trying to find out anything, maker, caliber, est date. Have pictures.
Answer: Sam- Pictures would be a great help on this one. My guess is that it
is indeed a souvenir from the battle of Port Gibson, which you can Google to learn more about.
My hunch is that the gun might be one of the Austrian Lorenz muskets which were imported and
used by both sides. I encourage you to do some genealogy research and figure out who in the
family may have been in the Civil War and keep it for the history. John
What can you tell me about this handgun. Age? Value?
Answer: Jacki, it seems like I just answered a question about a JC Hggins 85.
You must not have followed instructions and checked old answers before submitting your
question. A quick internet search reveals that the J. C. Higgins Model 85 pistol was manufactured
in France for Sears by Unique (Manufacture d'Armes de Pyrenees Francaises) of Hendaye. The
Model 85 is Unique's Model Corsair.
Manufacture d'Armes was formed in 1923. Prior to 1939, Unique firearms were marketed mainly
to domestic defense, police and military sales. After 1945, the focus of the company gradually
turned to the target pistols. When Unique went out of business, Bob's Gun Parts of Royal, Arkansas
bought all the remaining inventory of Unique pistols parts.
Collector interest for firearms with the J. C. Higgins brand name is not high. I would expect to see
a Model 85 selling at a gunshow in the $100 range. Marc

M1903 Spr. With Lyman Cocking Piece Rear Sight
Muzzle 09 - 1 In 1915, Springfield placed peeps on some 1903, one of which was 477500 (1911).
Mine has a cocking piece flip up peep and Trophy's book shows that peep on a 1903. Also,
mine does no appear to have been drilled for the standard military sight. The stock has been
shortened but according to several gunsmiths, the work appears to be original. Any chance
anyone knows the serial numbers of the 1903s that were modified by the Arsenal with peeps in
Answer: Sir- The Lyman cocking piece rear sight was a
commercially available product, not made exclusively by or for Springfield Armory. Hundreds,
perhaps thousands were sold for use by civilian sportsmen and gunsmiths, and installed on M1903
rifles of all vintages.
Brophy’s 1903 Springfield book covers one, serial number 477500, which is listed in Ordnance
Department documentation as being a rifle tested with such a sight, but I can not find any
documentation that other rifles were fitted with such sights by Springfield, nor tested, so in my
opinion it was a one of a kind item, tested, rejected and then likely shipped off to Springfield for
If your rifle were in full military configuration except for the sight, I might be inclined to support
the idea that it was a “spare” made up for the trials or something. Remember, the standard
military rear sight was mounted on the barrel sleeve, not attached by screws to the receiver, so
removal of the sight sleeve would not leave any evidence of it being there (other than the
longitudinal groove for the pin which kept the sleeve from twisting on the barrel. So, in my
opinion this is not a military altered rifle, but a later “sporterized” project. John

Winchester Model 77
Terrie - Indianapolis, IN
Can you tell me when this rifle was manufactured by the serial number?
Answer: Terrie, Winchester manufactured the Model 77 Sporting Rifle from
1955 to 1963, total production reached about 217,200. The first Model 77 (serial number 1,001)
was delivered to warehouse stock about April 21, 1955 and was shipped May 13, 1955. The
Model 77 was 40.35 inches in length, weighed 5.55 pounds empty and had a 22 inch barrel. The
stock was plain walnut with a semi-beavertail forend and a checkered composition type buttplate.
The receiver top was milled with rails for scope mounts, the trigger guard and floorplate were
nylon. Model 77-s were available with either a detachable box 8 round magazine or a 15 round
tubular magazine under the barrel. The box-magazine version was less popular than the tube-
magazine version and was discontinued in 1962. Originally model 77 serial numbers were
located on the front right corner of the receiver, in late 1955 the location was moved to the left
side of the receiver, then toward the rear of the receiver. Rifles manufactured after 1959 were not

Polish Mauser Information
Polish 98a -
Is there any book on Polish Mauser armories, inspectors and proof
Answer: Sir- I do not know of
any books devoted to Polish Mausers. The best options would be Robert Ball’s “Mauser Military
Rifles” which is extremely comprehensive, although not quite as down in the weeds detail as
some of the markings. There is also a recently published books on the Polish Vz35 Radom Pistol
(I don’t recall the exact name and author) that will likely get into a lot of detail, and while it is
aimed at the slightly later pistol, some of it might be applicable to the earlier rifles, or have some
bibliographical sources listed that would help you. John

Value For A Rusty Dreyse
6 Inches -
Rheinische Metallwaaren-Maschinenfabrik I just need to know how much the gun is worth and
some history. It is an all original gun never been touched or remade.
Answer: Dorothy, Waffenfabrik von Dreyse was founded about 1842, they
initially made the famous Needle Gun for the Prussian army, the Dreyse concern had also made
needle pistols and cap lock revolvers. The Dreyse Model pistol 1907 was broadly based on the
1906 Browning pattern without the grip safety.
Model 1907 pistols are usually marked DREYSE RHEINMETALLABT SOMMERDA on the left
side of the frame, with an 'RMF' monogram on the grips. Early models may be marked
DREYSERHEINISCHEMETALLWAAREN-UND MASCHINENFABRIK ABT SOMMERDA, while a
few made in 1914, after adoption of the Rheinmetall acronym, omitted 'Dreyse' completely.
Many Dreyse pistols were purchased by police forces, including the Royal Saxon Gendarmerie.
There is not much collector interest in Dreyse .32 pistols, values are usually in the $150 or less
range, value for a rusty pistol is in the $75 range if you can find a buyer at all.

23 S -
elevated front site, notches in stock, Received this gun from my dad who has passed away, the
only paperwork I have is a shipping invoice dated 6/9/1945 that states it is a Remington 45-70
used by Army and Navy from the seventies to the Spanish American war. I was wanting some
history on it and just to see what it is worth. The only thing on the left side of the barrel is the 23 s
, which is what I put for the possible serial number. Thanks for your time, Tom
Answer: Tom- The Remington-Lee bolt action rifle is the basic design which
was adopted by the British and modified slightly to become the famous Lee-Enfield rifle in .303
British caliber which served the Empire for about 90 years in various forms. However, here in the
land of its invention, it got much less respect and admiration, and was only made from about
1880 to 1907. Small numbers were purchased for use (mainly trials) by the U.S. Navy (Models
1879- about 1,300) and Model 1885 (about 1,500, and also the U.S. Army (about 770 rifles). A
total of about 100,000 were made of all models, mainly military types for the export market and
some for militia use. A small number were made for sporting sales, but they were not very
popular. The U.S. military purchased arms have a variety of U.S. and inspector markings, while
those for other users did not. If yours is NOT marked U.S., then while it may be similar to some
used by the U.S. Army and Navy, it is not actually one of them. The difference in value and
demand are considerable, with the US marked examples running about $675 in NRA antique
good condition, and the others more like $425 for comparable rifles. Carbines will bring more,
and of course higher condition levels will drive all prices higher. Hope that helps. John

German Or Austrian Flobert Target Rifle
Chris, St. Louis, Mo
I have a rare German/Austrian Flobert. 4mm caliber, second (hair) trigger, large stock, 8 inch
barrel. Nice wood, engraving sides. I am looking for any information on this gun. Can send
picture if wanted.
Answer: Chris- It sounds like you have one of
the “Zimmerschuetzen” rifles which were indoor target rifles popular in Germany and Austria from
the late 1800s to mid 1900s. These were usually very well made, nicely decorated, and deadly
accurate rifles. Such indoor shooting was sometimes on dedicated shooting ranges, but many
bars had smaller indoor ranges for patrons to demonstrate their athletic skills to friends and
impress the frauleins. Think of it as sort of a Germanic counterpart to the sport of throwing darts in
some other countries, all taken very seriously by the participants, but claimed by the cynical as
just excuses to hang around the tavern drinking beer trying to pick up women. But, they are very
nice rifles. Tom Rowe has several volumes of books out on Schuetzen rifles, but I am not sure if
they get into this type or not. Other than that, I am at a loss to recommend a source of further
information. John Spangler

What's It Worth?
Zack, Spokane, WA,
Model 94 -
Stainless Steel -
What's it worth and would id like to know some specifics
Answer: Zack, I am not sure how you think I would be able to give you
specifics or the value of your Winchester based on the information that you provided. The least I
need to know is the condition and the serial number of your rifle. It is doubtful that your Model 94
is made of stainless steel, it is much more likely that there is no finish remaining so the rifle looks
shiny like stainless steel. Value for a Model 94 with no finish can be as low as $100. It can go up
from there depending on year of production, special features and several other factors.

Spesco 22 Parts
Ddiedra -SC- Portland -SC- OR -SC- USA
Says it was made in Germany, but it also says the manufacturer is the Spesco Corporation in
Georgia I would like to find parts for this gun
Answer: Ddiedra, if
memory serves me correctly, Spesco imported all sorts of inexpensive firearms from overseas
(Japan, Germany, Italy etc.). My research indicates that your pistol was probably manufactured by
Gerstenberger & Eberwein of Gussenstadt, West Germany. Gerstenberger & Eberwein
manufactured of a line of cheap handguns that were sold in the USA in the late 1950's and early
1960' s prior to the Gun Control Act of 1968. Most were junky Saturday night special types with
values in the $50 or less range. Parts for this revolver will probably be hard to find. In my opinion,
it would be a waste of time and money to try to repair this .22.

Hembrug And Spandau Rifles With Japanese Marks
Susan, Greensburg, Ky.
Japanese WW2 -
30 1/4'' And 31 1/4'' -
Spandau 1917, has 8049 stamped under the stock, GEW98 and the other Hambrug 1915
stamped on the left side I recently acquired 2 World War 2 Rifles from my Father one has
Spandau 1917 on it and the other has Hambrug 1915 . The numbers I find on the Spandau is
8049 on one side and Japanese markings on the other. Hambrug has 4898T. can you help??
thank you very much.
Answer: Susan- Neither one is a from
Japan or WW2. Let’s start with the Hembrug rifle first. It was made at the Dutch arsenal at
Hembrug, the Netherlands, in 1915. It is a Mannlicher type design, originally made under
contract by Steyr in Austria, but at Hembrug after 1904, all made for the 6.5 x 53mm Rimmed
“Dutch or Roumanian” cartridges. Not common, but not in much demand, and the very similar
Austrian and Hungarian Mannlicher rifles and carbines are common and very cheap.
The Spandau rifle dated 1917 is a German Gewehr 1898 infantry rifle in 8mm (7.92 x 57mm)
Mauser which was the standard German rifle of WW1. If there are oriental looking markings, then
I suspect that they are Chinese rather than Japanese. The Chinese purchased huge numbers of
new and surplus rifles after WW1 and these remained in use during WW2 against the invading
Japanese army, and afterwards in the Chinese civil war as Mao Tse Tung’s Communists
eventually defeated Chiang Kai Shek’s Nationalist Chinese forces. In the 1980s hundreds of
thousands of rifles were sold off by the Chinese, mostly in very ratty condition, but still interesting
Values will depend on condition, but I don’t think either one of these will be a great treasure.

What I am doing with this latest project is keeping the idea simple, to learn the software.
Incorporating simple design with the theme of changing with proximity. A maze was the first game idea from this.
In this yet to be titled game, the object is to find your way through a level from A to B. With some gate mechanics, puzzles and double bluffs in the mix, I hope to build a short fun maze game initially that potentially could be open and diverse in narrative.
The core of this is my prefab cluster of blocks that form a unit of space in the maze. As you come into proximity they slide and morph away or to you. These prefabs add together to form the changing and confusing maze, whether they reveal corridors or block of access.
Hack 'n' Slash game sound design with focus on a particularly hard to replicate sound set, also sporting my own vocals.
Synthesised electricity and a wheelbarrow rocket really cement this clip with a believable environment.
With my passion for creating original sound design, I sought out those hard to replicate sounds. Electricity and rockets. After finding a clip to work with I set about researching how I might replicate these sounds.
For electricity I chained a seriers of oscilators with various frequencies that related to electricity, enough so that a nice crackling, hushing, current sound could be derived from it. For the rocket, that was difficult. The source material was actually a wheelbarrow upturned with the mic within it, as it was dragged across the ground. A wonderful rumbling, bellowing sound.
I also added in vocals, spot effects and foley to complete the audio package. A stage for the main contenders.
A template on a structured system for implementing game audio into a game, including dynamic weather, music and sound design.
A full game album based on the designs and concept of the game audio bank, a theoretical game.
This little project revolved around 2 structures, a game audio bank as a Wwise set up and an album which inspired and was inspired by the game. These two projects helped craft worlds and scenes with the music as well as the audio designs within Wwise, to create a believable gaming environment.
The culmination of which was great insight and experience using Wwise and publication of the album. Since then I have worked on an interupting speech system. The system tries to cut off audio where the user interupts it within the game and adds on a counter argument that changes the audio .The trick is to make the audio seemless and not feel cut into when the break happens.
A big project that I've worked on for a while is a new sense controller design which would revamp vibration, within game controllers and in game context. To a better extent than they do now, in a 360 degree area of response.

The fourth season of the rebooted series will run on Pop for 13 episodes next year, with the whole core cast returning. The first three seasons will stay on Netflix for the foreseeable future, though Pop will be able to air them too, as Vulture reported. As part of the deal, Pop's sibling network CBS will air repeats of the fourth season.
Previous indications suggested Netflix's rival streaming platform, CBS All Access, tried to pick up One Day At A Time, but it seems Netflix blocked that notion. Sony Pictures Television, which produces the show, was prohibited from taking it to another streaming service for several years under its Netflix deal, though there was no such clause preventing it from selling the series to a broadcast network. Pop, meanwhile, was looking to bolster its lineup with one of its most successful shows, Schitt's Creek, wrapping up after its next season.


Announcer loses his mind during insane 52-point comeback win in Australian Football league

- Sally Field spoke to reporters about her "Mrs. Doubtfire" ahead of its 30th anniversary.
- While at the SAG Awards, Fields said she misses her costar, Robin Williams.
- Field added that her memories of the film are filled with "love and joy of being in his presence."
Sally Field recalled working with Robin Williams on the 1993 comedy "Mrs. Doubtfire" as the 30th anniversary of the movie approaches later this year.
On Sunday, Field attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards to receive the organization's lifetime achievement award. While on the red carpet, the actor was asked by Entertainment Weekly and People about working on "Mrs. Doubtfire" with famous comedian Williams, who died by suicide in 2014 at the age of 63.
In the movie, Williams played a divorcé who tries to spend time with his children by pretending to be a housekeeper for his ex-wife (Field).
"What you think about immediately is Robin," Field said when asked what she remembers about working on the film. "There isn't a moment of it that's not filled with my love and joy of being in his presence. Robin was Robin. He was everything he seemed to be."
The 76-year-old actor continued: "A generous, loving, sweet, geniusly-talented man. We all miss him. He should be growing old like me for God's sake. I hate it that he isn't here."
In 2021, "Mrs. Doubtfire" director Chris Columbus told SF Gate that he had discussed a sequel to the hit movie just before Williams' passing.
"Robin was one-of-a-kind," the director said. "The last time I met with Robin before he passed away was about the 'Mrs. Doubtfire' sequel. We had a script and it was a great script. Robin was prepared to do it. And then, unfortunately, he passed away."
The sequel was immediately scrapped after Williams died with Columbus saying it was "impossible" to continue without the legendary actor.
Two years prior to Williams' death, he was misdiagnosed with Parkinson's disease. An autopsy following his death found that the actor actually had Lewy body dementia, a form of progressive dementia.
"What he was going through didn't match one to one [with] many Parkinson's patients experiences. So, I think that was hard for him," Zak said. "There was a focus issue that frustrated him, there were issues associated with how he felt, and also from a neurological perspective, he didn't feel great. He was very uncomfortable."
Zak thought that his father's misdiagnosis "might have exacerbated the situation," adding that the drugs used to treat Parkinson's "are no joke."
"They're also really hard on the mind and the body," he said. "The diagnosis was different than the disease so I think it could be a situation where you're taking stuff and experiencing purely the side effects of [the drug]."

In this second of five in a series of videos, J. Wayne Fears shows how he uses his ATV to maintain semi - permanent food with a base of Durana Clover, then over-seeded to add seasonal vegetation. In this segment J. Wayne explains how he manages the permanent Durana plot by mowing in the summer to keep down the annual weeds, grasses and over seeded plants from the previous years.
The next step is to use a light set of disc on your ATV to cut v-groves in the soil without destroying the Duran. Your ATV should have at least a 400 CC engine, and you should run the disc in 4-wheel drive or low range. ÃÂ
The v-groves cut by the disc help aerate and break up the soil so the seed will have good soil contact. We will over-seed with rye and annual clover for new growth through the winter and into the spring.

The lock on the driver's door of my little car has finally called time. A few days ago when I had stopped to fill up with diesel, I got the key stuck in the door and had to be rescued by a helpful Welshman who, fortunately for me, appeared, seemingly out of nowhere to offer assistance.
Today, going to town to do Christmas shopping seemed higher on the list than sorting out the lock - that is until I parked, locked the door from the inside and climbed over to the passenger seat to get out, when I discovered that the key was now slightly bent and so wouldn't lock that door either.
Plan B was heading off to the shop where Giles effected a sort of repair, which involved dismantling the inside of the door, which was a little worrying. I had visions of driving to work on Monday exposed to the elements. However, in spite of his efforts, the general consensus was that a new lock is needed, which I shall have to wait for.
So should you hear on the news about someone being catapulted from her car in North Wales early one morning next week, you will know who it is. James Bond, eat your heart out!

NLEX which made a good showing in the last PBA Governors’ Cup is on the right tract in the Philippine Cup.
The Road Warriors kicked off their campaign in the prestigious conference with back-to-back victories – something which they hope to sustain in the New Year.
A 2-0 however may not actually mean anything yet, but coach Yeng Guiao is brimming with confidence in the brand new season, and that’s despite the fact that most of the teams have kept their respective line-ups intact, and the others have undergone massive changes to cope with the challenges in the All-Filipino Conference.
When asked to compare his Road Warriors this season to last season’s, Guiao was candid about his answer.
“We have better chemistry this season,” Guiao told conceptnewscentral on Friday.
“Maybe it’s because we spent more time together or our personnel just get along better,” he added.
Guiao admitted he was impressed with the way the Road Warriors fashioned their victories over Kia Picanto (119-115) last Dec. 20 and Globalport (115-104) last Dec. 25.
“We also finished games stronger and maybe because we are smarter because of the leadership of the veterans,” said Guiao.
The Road Warriors won just two out of 11 games in the Philippine Cup last season, a forgettable stint that went unabated in the ensuing Commissioner’s Cup where they ended up with the same output, 2-9.
In a remarkable turnaround, the Road Warriors figured prominently in the Governors’ Cup where at one time they even held the lead for more than a week.
They won seven and lost four outings in the season-ending conference to make the quarterfinal round.
Unfortunately, they were bumped off right away by a twice-to-beat and now Magnolia Hotshots in the quarters.
This conference however, Guiao became all the more optimistic, although the Road Warriors have never been included in the list of favorites.
“We make better decisions as a team than one year ago,” said Guiao, who cited the big roles being played in the team by veterans.
NLEX — one of the three teams maintained by the Manny V. Pangilinan group in the league, the two others being Talk ‘N Text and Meralco – is dotted by seasoned veterans in the likes of JR Quinahan, Asi Taulava, Rabeh Al-Hussaini, Larry Fonacier, Alex Mallari and Cyrus Baguio, and Kevin Alas.
The good thing about the team is that it has acquired Keifer Ravena, a rookie who plays like a real veteran.
As testament to his very promising professional career, Ravena became the first recipient of an award being given by the PBA Press Corps in the young tournament.
The Road Warriors who are in a tie with the San Miguel Beermen on top, will play next Phoenix when the league resumes on January 7 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Entrepreneurs are putting a fresh gloss on the old rooming house and calling it “co-living.” Here’s why that’s a smart move.
Around the turn of the last century, new arrivals in big cities like Philadelphia found shelter and instant community in rooming houses — places where they could rent a room and share common facilities.
That style of living eventually faded out of fashion. But now, a century later, housing affordability is becoming an urgent issue, and a fresh generation of tender graduates is looking for reasonably priced lodging. Guess what’s back?
Yep, the rooming house. Only this time, it’s got a shiny new label: “co-living.”
This dressed-up version has its roots in another recent phenomenon: individuals seeking roommates to share the cost of an apartment well into adulthood. But where hitching up with roommates involves acquiring furniture, sharing trash responsibilities, and conducting interviews that resemble first dates, co-living facilities take care of all that stuff for you. And they toss in wi-fi, utilities, cleaning of shared spaces, kitchen supplies, and Instagram-friendly furnishings.
Turns out a lot of people are looking for this kind of living arrangement: “About 25 million Americans live with roommates,” says Brad Hargreaves, CEO of Common, one of two co-living companies setting up shop here. That’s a 20 percent increase over the past 10 years, he adds.
It’s a worldwide trend, explains Gunther Schmidt, CEO of the German-based parent company of Quarters, a co-living company currently building a facility in Northern Liberties: “In Europe, in all the major cities, prices are going up, and people are looking for ways to make it more affordable.”
What Quarters and Common have in common: They’ve figured out how to create stylish spaces at reasonable cost. (Shared kitchens are a big money-saver.) A studio at Common Frankford, for instance, will rent for under $1,000 a month. A new studio anywhere in greater Center City typically runs about $300 more. And because both firms operate facilities in several cities, footloose tenants will be able to inhabit units here or elsewhere with leases as short as three months. “You have the services included, you have the social network included, and if you don’t like it, you can move on,” Schmidt says.
Sounds like a noncommittal millennial renter’s dream.

Real estate contentment: a critical component to achieve true happiness?
Buying a home can make you happy, if you don’t forget your social life
Homeownership is considered an important step on the ladder to personal fulfilment, but that might not be the true key to happiness.
New researches conducted by the University of Columbia have shown that the trade-offs many people make to save money to buy a home – such as cutting back on vacations, restaurant meals and other extras – may undermine their felicity, as investing in experiences rather than in material goods may lead to a greater happiness.
A study conducted in Ohio by Grace Wong Bucchianeri – an assistant professor of real estate at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania – in 2011 found that homeowners were not happier than renters, as owning a home implies some nuts and bolts that may catch homeowners off guard: maintenance and repairs, as well as contingent expenses may severely affect their serenity.
The recession has forced consumers to limit their spending habits and change their lifestyles, but after saving money for years, buyers are returning to invest in the housing market. Anyway, living in a lovely house located in a beautiful block and in a charming neighbourhood may not be enough to be happy.
Dr Dunn – a happiness expert – advises to think carefully about what really matters for our happiness when we decide to buy a home: the quality of our social life, which depends much on what we do with our time. Installing domestic appliances helping us to spend less time on tidying up our house to go out and enjoy the company of our relatives and friends would be a little good solution.
Mr Ravi Dhar – the director of the Center for Customer Insight at Yale School of Management – maintains that the impact of homeownership on happiness diminishes over time as the buyer adapts to it, just like with any other possession; therefore, according to this principle, moving periodically should be the key to remain happy.
But if you are not inclined to change the place where you live from time to time and you are considering purchasing your final home, where you will spend the rest of your life, take into account that buying a home can make you happy only if you choose the property that meets not only your money supply, but also – and most importantly – your personal and social needs.

Grooving for Beginners
Starting a new business is always difficult, but if there is a genuine interest and motive to take up grovelling, it is worth it. After all, it is an opportunity to grow a wide variety of plants at home. The fruits of grovelling can bring wonderful results and a lot of pleasure in every sense of the word.
The main recommendations for beginners growers
Experienced growers strongly recommend to beginners to grow plants in artificially created conditions first of all to study well at least the basics of grooving, so that then, having started, not to stop halfway or even abandon this activity in case of failure.
Here are a few simple but very effective tips for beginners growers:
- It is better to start growing plants of one kind, rather than different ones, because there is a risk of not taking into account all the nuances of the rules of care;
- to study obligatory the technology of grovelling;
- To decide the place for growing plants;
- to choose a grow box carefully;
- To provide optimal parameters necessary for the normal growth and development of plants: temperature, humidity, lighting, ventilation
- timely feeding, spraying, pruning and other works;
- and most importantly - forget about laziness, remember about the plants. Otherwise there will be no success.
Grooving is an activity for patient, attentive and careful people. Only these qualities will help to achieve excellent results.
Optimum growing conditions for the plants
For plants to grow well, you need to watch out for important parameters:
- lighting; for this purpose, different types of lamps can be used, each of which has its own characteristics, which must be taken into account when using them;
- The observance of the correct temperature regime, which during the day should be from 22 to 27 ° C, and at night the temperature can drop by 2-5 ° C, no more, otherwise it may lead to the appearance of dangerous mold;
- Humidity; the humidity level during growth should be between 65 and 70 percent. During flowering - 55-60 percent;
- ventilation is provided with the help of a fan.
In specialized stores you can buy ready-made boxes, which will greatly facilitate the work of novice growers.
Also for grovelling will require pots, soil and fertilizer. Readymade ground mixtures can be bought in specialized stores, or you can make your own by mixing 50 % of soil, 20 % of coconut fiber and biohumus, and 10 % of vermiculite.
Thoroughly prepared and bought all the necessary equipment, you can safely start growing plants. It remains only to wish the novice growers a good start and excellent results.

Interpretive Summary: Improved prediction of the optimal nitrogen fertilizer rate could provide economic and environmental benefits to producers. Laboratory tests that estimate the amount of organic nitrogen provided by the soil to plants during the growing season, such as potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN), may help improve fertilizer decisions and nitrogen use efficiency. However, a full understanding of the utility of PMN is still lacking. In this study, soil and weather characteristics, including texture, soil nitrate, and temperature, improved relative yield predictability using PMN data across a range of climate and soil conditions. This study establishes that several factors need to be considered when using PMN tests to help make nitrogen fertilizer decisions or improve relative yield predictability. Ultimately, tests such as PMN may help producers improve crop nitrogen use efficiency, but only when combined with other important soil and weather information.
Technical Abstract: The anaerobic potentially mineralizable N (PMNan) test combined with the pre-plant (PPNT) and pre-sidedress (PSNT) nitrate tests may improve predictions of corn (Zea mays L.) N fertilization needs. This potential improvement has not been evaluated in depth in the US Midwest. Forty-nine corn N response experiments (mostly corn following soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]) were conducted in the US Midwest from 2014-2016 to evaluate the effect of combining PMNan values from different soil sample timings and N fertilizer rates with the PPNT and PSNT values on relative yield (RY) predictability and over- and under-application of N fertilizer failure rates under contrasting soil and weather conditions. Soil was sampled (0-30 cm) for PMNan analysis before pre-plant N application and at the V5 development stage from the 0 and 180 kg-N ha-1 pre-plant N applications. Grain yield was not optimized to estimate the critical soil nitrate content (CSNC) using the PPNT and PSNT alone or combined with PMNan. Including N application rate with PPNT or PSNT improved RY predictability (R2 = 0.49-0.62). Including PMNan (pre-plant only) with both nitrate tests improved RY predictability (R2 = 0.60-0.65) only for coarse- and medium-textured soils. Little improvement was found in estimating N fertilizer needs regardless of the variables used with PMNan in conjunction with PPNT or PSNT (fertilization, sampling depth, and textural and growing degree-day categories) to improve RY predictions and reduce N fertilizer over- and under-application failure rates.


>> With Lady Gaga in the house for last night's CFDA Awards, there was bound to be some entertainment. And she didn't disappoint — as Cathy Horyn deemed, last night's show "was better than it has been in awhile." From details on Anna Wintour texting Gaga to Prabal Gurung's onstage shout-out to a fellow designer, a few of our favorite quotables, moments, and sightings from last night's festivities in the slideshow.
Posts for June 2011
>> Shortly after the 2011 CFDA Awards wound down at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall, the crowd moved on to Marc Jacobs's honorary dinner at the Monkey Bar, before finally settling in for a Lady Gaga rager — complete with a mesh-suited Gaga and Patti LaBelle dueting on "Over the Rainbow" — at the Top of the Standard. A few choice moments from the after party scene, captured in the slideshow.
>> This evening at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall in New York, fashion's finest gathered for the 2011 CFDA Awards.
And this year's winners are . . . (nominees here):
- Accessory Designer of the Year: Alexander Wang
- Menswear Designer of the Year: Michael Bastian
- Swarovski Award for Menswear: Robert Geller
- Swarovski Award for Womenswear: Prabal Gurung
- Swarovski Award for Accessories: Eddie Borgo
- Womenswear Designer of the Year: Proenza Schouler
This post will be updated with winners and more arrivals as the night continues.
>> Resort collections are usually synonymous with escapist inspirations, but Phillip Lim is going “against nature” for his Resort 2012 collection, sticking with what he knows best — an urban environment. “The idea of going away is essentially artificial for me. These skyscrapers are my trees,” he explained, indicating his Manhattan surroundings. “At the end of the day, wherever these clothes go, they have to come back here.” Hence the collection's utilitarian elements, found on drawstring-waisted pants and slouchy jackets. Lim is also launching his first accessories collection for Resort this season, including patent leather satchels and latex, open-toed platform booties.
>> Fresh off being no longer deemed "cool" by the New York Times, he submitted his latest collection — for Resort 2012 — full of nonchalant striped sweatshirts, tank dresses, and anoraks. Absent of "theme" on purpose, Jacobs instead focused the collection on motifs — particularly two prints derived from wallpaper rolls: an oversized paisley pattern and one of pastel daisies.
>> As a Dolce-and-Gabbana-sporting Lauren Santo Domingo sat down to the three course lunch at yesterday's Veuve Clicquot-sponsored Governor’s Island Polo Classic in New York — which began with caviar — she noted, WWD reports (seven weeks after giving birth to her first son): “'The only thing I really, really craved during my pregnancy was caviar,' Santo Domingo said, daintily separating it with her fork from the fennel infused creme-fraiche custard below. 'I was Googling it constantly to see if it was something that, you know, you shouldn’t eat. Somehow, there were more people Googling ‘crack while pregnant’ than ‘caviar’ on most Web sites… But I asked Dasha [Zhukova], seeing as she’s Russian and a great mother, and she said it was OK.'" [WWD]
>> Donna Karan is having a body-con moment. For Resort 2012, dresses were cut close to the body, bootleg pants hugged curves, and racer jackets zipped snugly. But don't go thinking these clothes are only for the tiny. "Stretchy! This is the beautiful thing about these; they fit her, they fit me," said Donna Karan, snapping the fabric of a model's pant. In a mix-and-match palette of red, black, and silver — and with silhouettes ranging from sporty to formal — these are styles that Karan designed to go the extra mile. An embroidered pencil skirt with a paneled white jacket could easily go from office to office party, while a stunning white tulle and ribbon concoction (left) — inspired by a Christmas tree — could be the perfect New Year's Eve ensemble. "They're in the stores for the longest amount of time," Karan explained of the fifty look collection's versatility. "They're meant to be worn every single night during the holiday season."

As a certified Hypnobirthing Australia Practitioner, Postpartum Support Professional and student (future!) midwife I am incredibly passionate about about helping to create positive birthing and parenting experiences.
In my work I have seen how effective essential oils can be in helping women (and their birth partners!) to feel relaxed, calm and empowered during pregnancy, labour and early parenthood. At a time when we want our support tools to be as simple and effective as possible it can be expensive and confusing to know which oils are the most safe and beneficial to use at each stage along the way.
Looking to provide a solution for my birthing clients I designed Path to Birth’s Essential oils range using the highest quality therapeutic grade essential oils.
With easy to follow information and recommended usage, you can safely and confidently enjoy the powerful benefits of essential oils. From blends perfect for diffusion, to on-the-go-rollers, wonderful massage oils, relaxing bath soaks, and handy kits with the lot - we have you covered!!
Essential Oil diffusions are one of the most effective and simple tools around to help us feel calm and empowered.
Diffusing essential oils in the background during pregnancy when we feel relaxed and happy can create neural pathways in the brain that bring out the same positive state in mind and body when the same scents are used during labour. The more relaxed and confident we are the less discomfort we feel!
One of the quickest and easiest ways to instantly feel the amazing physical and emotional benefits of essential oils is to apply it directly to the fast absorbing areas of the body.
The addition of beautiful amethyst crystal to our rollers makes for a power packed roller, and fractionated coconut oil dilutes the pure oils to avoid skin irritation. Our rollers promote relaxed, fear free, happy and joyous mummas!
Our bodies are under a lot of strain as they stretch and grow and birth our precious babies. Immersion in water is one of the most natural ways to alleviate pain and ease stress.
Epsom salts help muscles relax and ease muscle pain and cramps. Soaking in salts, combined with beautiful essential oils, supports us during pregnancy and helps prepare both mind and body for labour.
Massage can be one of the most useful tools for pain relief, fear release and bonding. Touch is a language that communicates love, understanding and reassurance. It sets off a series of reactions within our bodies - not only relaxing our muscles- but enhancing our mood and boosting our positive emotional feelings.
Combined with oils that are carefully designed to support smooth labour, ease pain and fatigue our massage oils leave you feeling uplifted and relaxed.
