How Can You Support CCT?
There are different types of membership in CCT. We would love to have your support!
*Note: In 2016, CCT increased membership rates for the first time in 25 years.
CCT has developed an intern program for college students that not only provides the organization with much needed assistance but gives college students a unique and valuable experience in community organizing-- in the development and the empowerment of a rural, poor, and isolated Black community. In addition, the people of Tillery benefit from having interns working in the community: students bring a freshness, a new perspective, and a sense of renewal to the community. Interns have been recruited from colleges and universities in New Jersey, Indiana, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Maryland, Connecticut, New York, California, Pennsylvania, and Washington DC.
Organizations can set up a fundraising event that would be in conjunction with a speaking engagement by a member of CCT. We are especially interested in participating in such events centered around the issue of Black Land Loss.


Maps of the projected increase of surface air temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) from 2xCO2 and 4xCO2 experiments with a GFDL climate model. The warming is projected to be particularly large over much of the mid-latitude continental regions, including North America and Asia. The temperature changes shown for the 4xCO2 experiment are almost as large as the difference between the present climate and that of the Late Cretaceous approximately 65-90 million years ago. The results are shown for years 401-500 from transient CO2 increase experiments in which CO2 levels are increased at 1% per year compounded until they reach twice their original level (70 years) or four times their original level (140 years). Most of the surface warming occurs within a few decades of the CO2 increase.

New Delhi: After serving 27 years in Indian Police Service, IPS Officer Sanjiv Bhatt has now been finally removed from service today. He was suspended in 2011, during which time he was posted in Junagarh, where he reportedly remained absent from his duty and that too without permission. In addition, it was also stated that he misused the official vehicle.
If speculations are to be believed, the officer has been sacked only because he went against the then Chief Minister Narendra Modi at the time of 2002 riots. Sanjiv Bhatt had filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court blaming Modi for instructing the officers during the post-Godhra riots to allow Hindus to express their anger.
This can be a possible reason behind this sacking as only last month; CBI raided a human rights activist, Teesta Setalvad's house. She has been trying to prove that how Modi is responsible for the killings of over 1000 people at the time of Gujarat riots.
There can be multiple reasons behind this move though. Only few days before sacking him, he was served with a notice owing to a video clip highlighting his alleged relationship with an unknown woman. Though he kept denying the charges and insisted that the person in the video clip isn't him.

Дробь (охотничья) — разновидность поражающих элементов, которыми снаряжаются патроны гладкоствольного оружия. В специализированной охотничьей литературе дробь определяется следующим образом: «дробь — это составная часть раздробленного на большое количество частей снаряда, каждая часть которого имеет максимальный размер не более 5 мм». Если же размеры поражающих элементов превышают 5 мм, но не превышают половины диаметра ствола, то тогда речь идёт о картечи.

В большинстве случаев дробь представляет собой металлические шарики, поверхность которых покрыта медью, хромом или никелем для предохранения канала ствола от засвинцовывания и окисления. Обычно основным материалом для изготовления дроби служит свинец с различными добавками (например, сурьмы для прочности или мышьяка для облегчения технологических процессов отливки). Иногда оружейная дробь производится в форме кубиков или дискообразных пластинок, а в качестве материала для её изготовления может использоваться железо, сталь, чугун, полиэтилен и т. д.

Свинец и другие токсичные вещества из дроби попадают в окружающую среду и вызывают отравление рыбы и других животных в водоёмах. В Северной Америке много раз фиксировалась гибель от свинцового отравления уток. Во многих странах  (США, Канада, Дания, Швеция, Финляндия, Испания и др.) действуют полные или частичные запреты на использование боеприпасов, содержащих свинец.

Производство дроби

Материалы
Дробь отливали из чистого свинца или с небольшой примесью к нему других веществ, например, сернистого мышьяка (аурипигмент), олова, сурьмы; также дробь отливают из стали и висмута.

Сплав для английской дроби состоит из свинца, содержащего около 0,2 % мышьяка, который легче обращается в сферические капли и несколько твёрже, чем чистый свинец. Для приготовления такого сплава к свинцу прибавляют металлический мышьяк или его сернистые соединения: реальгар или аурипигмент.

Литьё
Расплавленный металл вливают в медный «дуршлаг» с отверстиями диаметром от 0,07 до 0,5 мм, дно которого покрыто слоем пористых огарков, собирающихся на поверхности расплавленного свинца. Капли свинца получаются гораздо больше, чем отверстия, и разной величины; однако самые крупные номера дроби приходится отливать в железных формах. Литьё дроби производится с высоты 30—45 м (для охлаждения свинцовых капель в воздухе) через железные решета в резервуары, наполненные водой. Высоту падения свинцовых капель можно уменьшить, если снизу дует искусственный поток холодного воздуха.

Сортировка
Из воды дробь поступает на сушильный стол, а потом во вращающийся барабан, где она долгое время пересыпается, чтобы обтёрлись небольшие неровности на поверхности зёрен. Сглаженные зёрна высыпаются на верхний край системы слабо наклонных плоскостей: правильные шарообразные дробинки докатываются донизу, а неправильные рано или поздно скатываются в сторону и поступают в переливку.

Отборная дробь сортируется через грохоты и потом окончательно полируется вращением в барабанах с прибавкой графита. Ср. Spon's «Workshop Receipts» (3 Ser. by W. Lck. 1885).

Спецификации дроби

Хорошая дробь должна быть полновесна (без свищей), шарообразна, ровна (хорошо отсортирована) и тверда, во избежание освинцовки стволов при стрельбе. По величине дробин дробь обозначается номерами, буквами и чертами (палками), причём самые крупные сорта её носят название картечи, наиболее же мелкий — дунст. В России, Англии и Германии чем мельче дробь, тем больше обозначающий её номер, в Швеции же наоборот. Номера английской дроби разнятся один от другого на 0,25 мм диаметра дробины: № 11 имеет 1,50 мм, № 6 (наиболее употребляемый на голубиных садках и вообще на охоте по птице) — 2,75 мм и т. д. Эта же шкала принята ныне и на всех германских заводах. На начало XX века в России имелось около 12 дроболитейных заводов, а лучшая дробь выделывалась в Англии (The Newcastle Chilled Shot, Walker's Parker Hardened Shot, Lane and Nesham). Примечательно, что существует дробь 0 (В), 00 (ВВ) 4,5 мм (.177 дюйма), 000 (ВВВ) и она, несмотря на нулевой номер, является самой крупной

Размеры дроби
Размеры дроби согласно ГОСТ 7837-76

Вне России встречаются иные системы. Например, в США и Канаде самая мелкая дробь соответствовала бы 13-му номеру (1 мм) по ГОСТ.

Практическое применение

Для снаряжения патронов дробь отмеряется по весу, реже — по объёму, иногда по счёту дробин. Для определения объёма употребляются выдвижные латунные мерки с делениями на английские унции авердюпуа (1 = 6,65 зол.) или граммы. Отсчитывают дробины особым счётчиком, состоящим из металлической пластины с насверленными в ней углублениями (соответствующими номерам отсчитываемой дроби) по числу дробин в снаряде. Дощечка опускается в мешок с дробью; дробины, не попавшие в углубления, стряхиваются легким движением руки обратно; дробь же, заполнившие углубления, ссыпаются через воронку в гильзу. При охоте с ружьями, заряжающимися с дула, дробь носится в дробницах в виде замшевых мешочков или металлических емкостей для дроби и с особой автоматической меркой, которая отсыпает в ружье точное по объёму количество дроби. Обычно, благодаря разлетаемости дроби, дичь легко поражается и охотник может добить её.

Adia Victoria has released a new EP. How It Feels consist of three covers and once original all sung in French. Check out her cover of "Laissez Tomber Les Filles" below. How It Feels can be picked up HERE.
Adia notes, "I wanted this EP to take on a more eerie feel. Instead of the imagined dream pop girl wishing for her man to come home I reimagined the lyrics as sung by a lover scorned but still love sick and obsessed. I wanted to keep the timeless feel of these songs while breathing into them a bit of modernity; sharpen the edges a bit. What if 'Parlez Moi de Lui' were more of a hazey, trip out love letter from a woman still haunted by lost love. What if her in deranged mind her man still danced in and out of sight, just out of touch? I wanted to inject 'Laissez Tomber Les Filles' with a bit of the anger and danger I felt as a new political era descended on our country. This session would prove to be therapeutic in channeling my frustration with the current political landscape into powerful songs sung by iconic, emotional women. This EP was a way express all these feelings in a tangible way. There is so much emotionality to women that is often policed. This project gave me the chance to shake off those restrictions, free myself from my own mother tongue and speak in universal themes that flow beyond the borders of language."

The work from Gustav Klimt has been reproduced to excess : in all the shapes, all the colours, and by using all the modern printing processes.
Except for some very few and very rare prints, admittedly most of these copies are of poor quality.
For the 150th Anniversary of Klimt's birth, Stephane Guillosson from France Art Diffusion Gallery decided at the beginning of 2012 on the editing of 3 lithographs from original drawings.
The Leopold Museum in Vienna and two art collectors have agreed on the project provided that it should be achieved in the respect of the Rules of the Art : with the requirements and under the very same conditions used at the time of the painter.
No more serigraphy, no more offset or digital printing, no more copy-paste. The only way to such an approach is indeed the process of Lithography.
Invented at the end of the 18th century, and used by all the world's great painters, this process is now dying. Thus, France Art Diffusion has called on the "Survivors", namely on the great names of the French Lithography.
Nicolas Draeger from Anthèse* Publishing House, in charge of one of the last Lithography workshops in Paris, still owning a 19th century hand-press and a lithographic flat printing machine dating from the beginning of the 20th century.
Gérard Dalmon*, one of the last craftsmen operating a lithographic flat printing machine and last but not least, M.F*, one of the last French Masters in the Lithography process.
Shown for the first time with a Lithography process, each drawing is stone-drawn again by Mario Ferreri and hand-printed, adding one colour after the other on a flat printing machine (a 1910 Marioni Voirin machine).
With 40 copies being printed on special paper, numbered and signed by the Lithographer, this outstanding achievement is a masterpiece in its own right.
*M.F : Heir of an old craftsmanship.
*Nicolas Draegger : sixth generation of Master-Printers since 1830. He keeps on carrying on the family tradition for rarity in the publishing business and for lost printing processes. "Jazz" from Matisse, "Erotica" from Egon Schiele or more recently "Le Tumulte noir" from Paul Colin will undoubtedly lend him credibility.
Steps in the making of Gustav Klimt's Lithos from Mario Ferreri.

ConocoPhillips has roots over 130 years old and is a pioneer in the production of Liquefied Natural Gas, which we have been responsibly delivering to the world since 1969. We are a global energy company that began operations in Australia almost two decades ago.
We can trace our beginnings to 1875, when Conoco founder Isaac E. Blake envisioned an idea to make kerosene available and affordable to townspeople in Ogden, Utah. Thirty years later, the foundation for Phillips Petroleum Company began when brothers Frank and L.E. Phillips hit the first of 81 wells without a dry hole. Nearly a century later, the two companies combined their strengths to form one of the largest energy company in the United States. The ConocoPhillips merger, completed on Aug. 30, 2002, paved the path for the company's current and future success. The years leading up to the formation of ConocoPhillips were marked by moments of triumph and challenges. Several of these moments highlighted both Conoco and Phillips' pioneering spirits. Phillips led the path in innovation by becoming the first company to develop and market propane for home heating and cooking, building the first long-distance multiproduct pipeline and inventing a process to make high-octane gasoline possible. Conoco used its pioneering spirit to develop the first filling station in the West, constructing what now is one of the oldest operating refineries in the United States and developing and receiving a patent for the Vibrosis method of seismic oil exploration. Together, the two companies helped make possible the current achievements of ConocoPhillips. Since the merger, the company has continued to grow and make significant contributions to the energy industry.
In 2006, Burlington Resources joined ConocoPhillips. The acquisition brought Burlington's more than 100 years of experience to ConocoPhillips and enhanced the company's position as a leading producer and marketer of natural gas. In recent years, ConocoPhillips began commercial production of renewable diesel fuel, started the first Alpine satellite oil field, announced plans for a global water sustainability center and formed a partnership with Tyson Foods, Inc. to produce next-generation renewable diesel fuel. While ConocoPhillips' history still is young, the histories of Conoco, Phillips and Burlington provide a solid foundation for ConocoPhillips to leave a mark on the industry.

Q: Grails Cache Plugin: Cacheable key using only two of three params With a restful api call such as
myserver/api/mydata?req?%7Bcode%3A%2244%22%2C%20name%3A%22sally%22%2C%20version%3A7%7D

where the parameters passed in are code=44, name=sally, and version=7, and I want to cache the response using only name and version as keys -- but not code.
What I want to do is this:
 @Cacheable(value="myCache", key="#name.concat(#version)")
 def mydata() {

 .....

 }

But #name and #version both resolve to null.  Apparently that format only works for method parameters, not params.name or params.version.
If I leave the key as default, the cache uses all three params as the key (if I change one, the cache is not used).  That would be great except I want the cache to be used regardless of 'code' and based on 'name' and 'version' as keys.
My guess is that I will need to override the default KeyGenerator, but I have tried and failed.  Any advice on how to do this?
Or is there a way to access the params properties with the @Cacheable annotation?

A: Phil,
The simplest solution would be to define the name and version as parameters of the controller action:
@Cacheable(value="myCache", key="#name.concat(#version)")
def mydata(String name, String version) {
}

If the name and version parameters are not always provided simply add a default value in the method signature:
@Cacheable(value="myCache", key="#name.concat(#version)")
def mydata(String name = null, String version = 0) {
}

Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt!!!
Do you LOVE sour cream? Then you should LOVE Plain Greek Yogurt!!
This is one of the most versatile ingredients I use in my kitchen. You can put it in smoothies, make dips out of it, make sandwich spreads (instead of May0) top your taco's with it and I swear to you – you wouldn't know that I was using Yogurt instead of Sour Cream.
and for other recipes where you want something thicker.
and Peaches and eat it as a snack. But whatever you decide to do with it – it is good for you!!! This has become a regular on my grocery list and a staple in our home.
There are many great Brands and flavors of Greek Yogurt, my favorites are Chobani Peach and the Fage plain.
Awesome post, I love greek yogurt!


One factor that pertains to almost all kinds of mortgage is the option of a set rate mortgage a treadmill having a variable rate of interest.
* Are you able to manage to have your instalments increase every month? This might happen having a variable rate mortgage.
* Are rates generally low right now? Maybe it's a great time to obtain tied right into a fixed interest rate mortgage.
* Would you like the safety of the fixed payment per month for quite some time? Fixed interest rate periods from one to ten years can be found.
* Are you currently getting difficulty borrowing enough money? A pursuit only mortgage often means lower repayments ie you are able to borrow more upon your salary. But you will find drawbacks.
To know which option will fit your conditions, discuss your choices having a United kingdom mortgage specialist, who can tell you on appropriate choices.

Tooth number 3 is symptomatic with buccal swelling and an apical lesion is noted. Patient was advised to either have an implant or a root canal. Canals appeared to be sclerosed in the distal buccal and palatal. Options were discussed and patient wanted to save tooth if at all possible.
All canals were found and obturated with gutta purcha and sealant. There was no separate MB2.
Patient is asymptomatic and healing is complete.
Comment: Implants are an option if routine root canal therapy fails and retreatment is not a viable solution. If a tooth is not fractured and all canals are found, root canal therapy is very predictably successful.

The work presented in this thesis paper plays on the sensuality and beauty which underlies sense and being itself. I take a literal look at the foundation of our physical existence by creating sculptures of proteins, the universal parts of the machinery of life. More important for me than accurately copying a molecule in all its details is finding a guiding principle and following it to see whether it yields artistically interesting results. The main idea underlying all my protein sculptures is the analogy between the technique of mitered cuts and protein folding. I feel I am closer to nature if I apply its algorithmic quality than if I just copy its appearance. My work is quite literally algorithmic because I calculate my cuts from scientific protein data using a computer program I wrote. Beside this deterministic side of my work, there is an equally strong intuitive and irrational side, where my pieces stop working as scientific models and become pure art objects. My sculptures offer an emotional experience of a world that is usually accessible only through our intellect.

And defeat the dungeon boss !
What door will you choose ?
Really neat idea. With a little more user feedback for when things happen and general HUD information this could be really slick. Only problem I had is that I was constantly mousing over my stuff to check levels.
I really loved the graphics. Would need more explanations in game.
Not often I play through an LD game several times over! It's actually quite a fun concept. Took a little getting grips with, but it's certainly got an addictive streak to it! The visuals are also rather charming! Good work!
That was really cool! Took me a few plays to finally win, once I could recognize which icons in the tree meant recruitable guys I was able to plan a path through.
Could do with a little more feedback on one or two things - I could usually tell roughly how well was going to do (power in rock vs the power stat of a scissors opponent etc) but couldn't really work out how many guys I would lose as a result! At least some indication of how bad a loss will be would be nice.
I liked the use of the two-button theme to choose a route through the forking path! And the art has a neat style to it, kinda reminds me of some illustration I remember of Alice in Wonderland.
Overall, among the best games I've played this LD.
Kind of confused but looks very nice and with a bit of work this could be really nice!
It's a bit of a weird game, but I liked the originality!
Great game, I found myself getting stuck to it!
Great artwork. A cool idea that fits the theme well. It took me a while to work out the gameplay, but it was fun enough to play again once I got it. Good job!
Handdrawn illustrations are always a good thing, right? :) Love the work done with the art and style of the RPS characters.
This seems very interesting, but I have no idea how to play. I was trying to understand the math behind it but with no success. Explanation is needed. But I see great potential in this. Never saw something like that.

Mildred Gene Kornman (July 10, 1925 – August 19, 2022), also billed as Ricki VanDusen, was an American actress, model, businesswoman, and photographer. At the time of her death, she was one of the last living actresses of the silent era.

Life and career
Kornman was born in Hollywood on July 10, 1925. She was the younger sister of fellow child actress Mary Kornman. Her father was Eugene Kornman, a professional still photographer who was employed by Harold Lloyd at the time of Kornman's birth. She was named after Lloyd's wife, actress Mildred Davis.

When Kornman was nine months old, she appeared with her sister Mary in The Fourth Alarm. Along with Mary, she was featured in the Our Gang short films series. Mildred was initially a regular in the series, with appearances from 1926 to 1928, and returned for a second stint from 1930 until 1935, in uncredited, non-speaking roles when many children were needed for a scene, such as a classroom.

After graduating Hollywood High School, Kornman became an actress at 20th Century Fox, albeit only in uncredited roles, under the name Ricki VanDusen. She was also a model, featuring in magazines such as Vogue and Harpers Bazaar, and in television commercials. She majored in art, English, and Spanish at the University of California, Los Angeles. Kornman married Norton Hinsey on December 30, 1943.

In 2014, Kornman attended a reunion of My Gang cast members, hosted by The Sons of the Desert as part of their 19th International Convention. In 2015, aged 89, she was living on a remote ranch in Utah. Kornman was one of the final surviving actors from the Our Gang series, which was produced from 1922 to 1944. Kornman died on August 19, 2022, at the age of 97. She was one of the longest lived Our Gang cast members ever.

Older People Can Backpack Too!
It seems to be a given that the travelling community is made up of wide-eyed twentysomethings who want to travel the world, taking advice from low thirty-somethings who used to be wide-eyed twentysomethings who achieved their dream. A combination of articles like Twenty Things To Do In Your Twenties, and Thirty Places To Go Before You're Thirty, coupled with branding/advertising that markets things like backpacker hostels, RTW tickets, and the like to those people who are, to coin a phrase, 'young, free, and single'.
Maybe there's a feeling that once you pass a certain age-point you're maybe assumed to be 'too old' to be doing this sort of thing. Maybe older people are normally assumed to be career-focussed, family-oriented, and don't have the time or situation to go gallivanting around the world at the drop of a hat. There's also maybe an impression that older people are 'less fun to be around', and 'less interested' in travelling to new places, preferring instead to holiday every year in the same all-inclusive villa resort just outside Benidorm or something.
Travel can be as cheap or as expensive as you make it. There are many other travel bloggers out there who explain how you can go around SE Asia for less than $10/day, or how to work while you're abroad, or how to take advantage of tricks and tips to get cheap deals and the like. All of this is good, and regardless of what your initial budget is, every single saving you can make means you can spend longer travelling. Regardless of whether you're 20 or 60, if you backpack, the chances are your overall spend would be quite similar.
However, the advantage of being slightly older than the average backpacker means you're more likely to have a bigger budget to begin with. It's likely you'll have had a job for a while, that you'll have been able to save up a bit of cash to prepare for the trip, which means when it comes to budgeting, you're more likely to be able to do more with it. This doesn't mean fancier hotels, expensive restaurants, and the like (street food is cheap but isn't that part of the reason you're there – for the local experience?!), but rather more (and longer) excursions to get a better feel for a place, or an ability to be more flexible in your travel plans (you can take that more expensive but considerably more convenient flight).
2) You have more of an idea where to go.
Suppose you're told from the beginning that you can take a year out of your life to travel the world, but you can only do it once, and never travel again. Where would you go? And when?
Many people do their travelling before their mid-20s, before they have a career or responsibilities, and their travel destination choices reflect their lifestyle at the time – hence the popularity of both 'existentialist soul-searching' trips around India and 'party party' weeks on the beaches of Thailand and Bali. Much of the world is an unknown quantity as (in the UK at least) the history and culture of much of it isn't taught in schools.
The more you hear about the world, maybe from news programmes, documentaries, friends and work colleagues who've been to places you've never heard of (or are even originally from places you've never heard of), or novels/films, the more something you'd never previously considered might interest you. When I was 20, I had never heard of countries like Benin, and the idea of going to West Africa would have made me go 'why would I want to do that?', but over time I heard about them, read more about them, and realised that they had a lot to offer me.
As a side note, of all the countries I've ever visited, just over 20% of them did not even exist when I was 15 years old.
3) You're less likely to get Homesick or have Culture Shock.
No matter how old you are, if you go somewhere new then there's a chance you'll stop in your tracks and be a little fazed by your surroundings. Things will surprise and confuse you, and it will take a little while to collect your bearings.
However, being older means you have just that little bit more of that old clichéd expression 'life experience'. No longer wide-eyed and acting like a rabbit in the headlights, you're more used to the way people are, the way you yourself come across, and are able a little easier to take it all in your stride rather than being a little panicky.
The concept of 'self-confidence' is bandied around – I'd say this is a slightly different concept; maybe 'self-comfortableness' (would that it were a word!) in that not only do you have the self-confidence to go out and explore somewhere new, but also the self-knowledge that you know it's never going to be as strange as you might at first think. A sense that you've already seen what people are like in the 'real world', and in any case know more about the world in general, so whether it be in Barnsley or Barbados, Detroit or Dili, it's not quite the unexpected chaos you imagine.
4) You'll be afforded a greater respect. Probably.
It does of course depends where you go and whether you've done the research beforehand. And while this of course depends very much on the individual, remember that stereotyping does exist.
Many cultures of course afford respect to older people anyway – this is particularly prevalent in Asia and Africa. And additionally, for example locals know that thirtysomethings and beyond are less likely to climb mountains to post naked selfies of themselves on social media.
Also, being an older traveller means that people won't immediately jump on you and expect you to want them to take you to some random bar full of beered-up backpackers. The downside is they'll still try to scam you, obviously; possibly more so because, being older, they'll assume you have a bit more cash to hand.
5) You can still have fun!
At the time of writing, this is the most recent pic of me – in the village of Eyam, Derbyshire.
My earliest memory of older backpackers came on a group tour I did to China back in 2002. Most of us were early/mid twentysomethings from Europe and Oceania, however also on the trip were a married couple from Sweden, early 50s.
They were fitter than most of the youngsters, joined in all the banter, had far geekier technology (I'd imagine a few years later they would have been among the first to travel-tweet and Instagram), and connected in general with the rest of us far better than you'd have imagined. They did tend to go to bed a little earlier than we did, but maybe they just knew that early starts were a ball-ache!
Maybe that proves that age is merely a number and that how old you are is merely a state of mind. Or that Swedes, in general, are young-at-heart. Although nothing beats the story I read in a magazine article in a doctor's waiting room in Australia, about the "World's Oldest Backpacker". He was happily travelling the world and staying in hostels at the age of 95.
Will you still be backpacking when you're a pensioner?!
First off I love this post! Thank you so much for sharing it with this community. You bring up a lot of great points, which I think is good to articulate. Many forget or don't think about these things. I also believe travel keeps you young. Not that age matters, but rather it is good to stay light and young at heart whether you're 20 or 80.
Some time after we returned home, I was trying to remember the name of the place we stayed at in Hampi, India. I did a rudimentary google search with a couple of things I remembered, and happened upon a, well, not exactly a blog, but a few posts by a woman who had stayed at the same guest house, just two weeks after us. I looked at her pictures, and was amazed to see that she was likely in her early seventies, with a husband who may have been close to 80. One fabulous picture of one or the both of them, sitting in a coracle, crossing the river near Anegundi. She included a photo of a young backpacker couple they were sharing the coracle with.
I don't think you're ever too old to backpack, I guess, until you are, if that makes any sense.
Love this. We took a mini break (6 weeks) at the beginning of the year to travel around Burma (technically Myanmar), Vietnam, Cambodia etc and I could not agree more with every point you make! I do find those twenty things to do in your twenties articles slightly annoying as there is almost a belief that you can only do these things when you are young. Having done it in my teens and now I can honestly say, the experience is just as good if not better as I don't have to worry about whether I can afford that helicopter trip, (or whatever it might be). I do also recognise that we forties travellers are a much smaller group, and many people simply 'feel' they can't do it but I believe anything is possible with the right mindset.
Thoughtful points, Ian. We met a lovely couple in Pamplona who were in their early 70s hiking the Camino de Santiago.
I was bit by the travel-bug as a child of 4, when the US Navy sent our family to Italy and have been traveling ever since. I spent my junior year abroad and 3 years in my early 20s traveling in South America and Asia. Later, I started dragging my husband with me and we've recently returned from an RTW with our teenage kids.
We were inspired by the range of people living the traveling lifestyle… from empty-nesters like our friends The Oestings at http://www.Landsremote.com and the couple behind http://www.gypsynester.com/ to large families like the 15 members of @Largerfamily and teenagers like http://bookertravels.com/. There are a LOT of non-20s/30s on the road!
Yes. I think the problem is that most people, by the time they're in their 30s, if not before, have obligations that mean they can't just pack up and travel– usually this involves marriages and/or children, but also sometimes jobs that can't be left for long (even if they do have paid leave time available) or situations at home that can't be left for long.
And– we've had this conversation before– because this is seen as the "norm," then it's seen as "normal" for older people to not want to travel (do people stop wanting to? Or do they just not admit they want to anymore? Or do they tamp down the desire to and so convince themselves they don't want to?). And then it's seen as "abnormal" for older people, who have the means to do so, to travel.

What Is Lipase?
The Differences between Catecholamines and Cortisol
By Kevin Beck
A lipase is an enzyme that participates in fat digestion. The body includes a number of subtypes of the enzyme, but the term "lipase" generally refers to pancreatic lipase. The pancreas is an organ located just below your stomach toward the back. Its role is to break down specific components of dietary fats. Lipase is secreted from the pancreas via a duct that empties into the gastrointestinal tract at the duodenum. It thus acts on food that has already been partially digested in the stomach.
Testing for blood serum lipase levels can be useful in diagnosing diseases of the pancreas and assessing the organ's function.
Pancreatic Enzymes Overview
Enzymes are substances that help speed up chemical processes that would otherwise proceed slowly or not at all. The pancreas manufactures a number of digestive enzymes in addition to a pair of hormones vital for metabolism (insulin and glucagon).
Digestive enzymes synthesized in the pancreas include lipase, amylase and the protease group. Lipase readies ingested fats for absorption; amylase breaks down starch into maltose, maltotriose and dextrins; and proteases (chiefly trypsin and chymotrypsin) begin to break down proteins.
Lipase Function
Triglycerides cannot across the intestinal wall directly. These consist of a glycerol "backbone" with three fatty acids attached, one to each of glycerol's carbon atoms. Lipase specifically converts triglycerides to two free fatty acids and a monoglyceride.
Lipase has become the subject of obesity research. Biochemists have produced lipase inhibitors, which show promise in weight management because inhibiting the breakdown of fat inhibits its absorption and may lead to weight loss.
Lipoprotein Lipase
This lipase acts specifically on triglycerides, also called triacylglycerols, that circulate in the bloodstream attached to lipoproteins. One example of a lipoprotein is VLDL, or very low density lipoprotein, a type of cholesterol. Lipoprotein lipase is found on the inner walls of blood vessels, where it can "grab" circulating lipoproteins and cleave two fatty acids from a triacylglycrol molecule in the same way pancreatic lipase does this in the duodenum.
When a Lipase Test Is Called For
Serum lipase levels can be used in the diagnosis of pancreatitis, or inflammation of the pancreas. When this organ becomes inflamed, some of its cells are destroyed and leak enzymes into the circulation. Thus high levels of lipase in the setting of well-established symptoms of pancreatitis can help doctors determine if this is what is happening.
Clinical symptoms of pancreatitis, which is often the result of acute or chronic drug or alcohol abuse, include nausea, vomiting, fever, a rapid pulse, and pain in the belly or back.

SELBY, Sir George (1556/7-1625), of Oatmarket, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumb. and Winlaton, co. Dur.
b. 1556/7, 1st s. of William Selby†, mercer and alderman of Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Elizabeth, da. and coh. of Gerard Fenwick of Newcastle-upon-Tyne; bro. of Sir William II*. m. by 1593, Margaret, da. of Sir John Selby of Branxton, Northumb. and Twizell, co. Dur., 5s. d.v.p., 6da.1 kntd. 23 July 1603.2 suc. fa. 1613.3 d. 30 Mar. 1625, aged 68.4 sig. George Selbye.
In 1608, having just completed his shrieval year in Northumberland, Selby was appointed sheriff of Durham. This position, unlike that in most counties, was permanent, and consequently Selby's return as knight of the shire for Northumberland in 1614 technically breached medieval election statutes, which forbade the return of sheriffs. The hustings at Alnwick was organized on a shamelessly partisan basis by Sir George's brother-in-law, sheriff Sir Ralph Selby of Twizell, who avoided a contest by refusing to take cognizance of any freeholder not prepared to support his relative, thus ignoring the presence of a substantial body of support for a rival candidate, Sir Ralph Grey* of Chillingham. Complaints were voiced in the Commons on 8 Apr. 1614, and the following day the case was reported by Sir George More, who noted irregularities in the poll, Selby's questionable status and the latter's lack of freehold or residence in Northumberland. The last two points were discounted, and Sir Edwin Sandys observed that the relevant election statute might not apply in this case for two reasons. The first was that in Durham the sheriff was appointed by the bishop, not the king; the second was that the purpose of the statute was not 'to restrain the election of sheriffs' but to prevent a sheriff from returning himself, which in this instance had not happened. However, Sir George Selby's return was rejected, and Sir Ralph Selby was summoned to explain himself.20 The Selbys eloquently expressed their indignation at this verdict by procuring the return of Sir George's brother Sir William Selby II* at the resulting election.

'NOW COMES THE HARD PART': Rabbi Bulka diagnosed with cancer
"It is obvious that in these circumstances some painful decisions have to be made."

Rabbi Reuven Bulka, a leading Jewish cleric in Ottawa for more than 50 years, is facing late-stage cancer.
The Jewish Federation of Ottawa has released a statement saying the prominent spiritual leader has been diagnosed with "advanced" cancer in the pancreas and liver.
'NOW COMES THE HARD PART': Rabbi Bulka diagnosed with cancer Back to video
He has travelled to the New York City area, where he spent his childhood and early formative years, to be with family.
An attached message from Rabbi Bulka says, after a fainting spell at home, he spent four weeks at the Ottawa Hospital and was discharged on Jan. 4 with the serious diagnosis.
"Now comes the hard part," writes the father of five. "During my stay, precipitated by fainting at home, the diligent crew at the Ottawa Hospital examined me quite thoroughly and started to uncover some serious issues.
"Without getting into unnecessary detail, they found advanced cancer in the pancreas and liver. Needless to say, it came as a shock.I have waited till now to share this with you as I wanted to do this only after meeting the oncology doctor to get the full picture."
He tried to remain hopeful about the future, saying this was not a "goodbye" letter, but added:
"It is obvious that in these circumstances some painful decisions have to be made."
Bulka: In praise of Ottawa's health care, from an 'insider'
Bulka: We can turn the COVID-19 lemon into social lemonade
Rabbi Bulka, who is 76, led Ottawa's congregation Machzikei Hadas from 1967 until his retirement in 2015, but he remained as Rabbi Emeritus.
He maintained an active career in media, writing a column in the Citizen and hosting a weekly radio program on CFRA. He was for two years (2007-2009) the co-president of the Canadian Jewish Congress and took part in dozens, if not hundreds, of ecumenical services in Ottawa.
He has received the Order of Canada, the keys to the city and an honorary doctorate from Carleton University. In 2019, Rabbi Bulka Kindness Park was named in his honour in Alta Vista, not far from his home synagogue. He is also the author of more than 30 books.
One of his successors at Machzikei Hadas, Rabbi Idan Scher, says the leadership of the community is working on ways to honour and support Bulka.
"We are currently working on creating opportunities in these three areas — prayer, acts of kindness, and sharing our voices with Rabbi Bulka — in an organized fashion and in the 'Rabbi Bulka' way."
He writes that a "virtual day of prayer" is being organized and will include all faiths.

Notes from practice: Floyd out, receiver analysis
Brian Schottenheimer was giving a freshman receiver an earful at Tuesday morning's practice.
ATHENS — After a day off, the Georgia football team was back on the practice field early on Tuesday morning. But a few notable names were missing.
Some notes from the media viewing period of practice, starting with injuries, and then going to a few observations:
– Linebackers Leonard Floyd and Tim Kimbrough were not out there. There's no word on an injury for either of them, and it must be pointed out that this was just a three-period snippet of practice, so conceivably a player could return later. But for now it has to be passed on that these two projected starters were not present.
Update: Based on conversations with teammates, neither Kimbrough or Floyd appears to have anything major.
"Tim's fine," fellow inside linebacker Jake Ganus said.
Jordan Jenkins said he wasn't aware of anything with Floyd, who wasn't injured when he saw him Monday night.
The team hasn't announced anything on either player, and it's not clear whether it will. The next time coach Mark Richt is due to address the media is after Wednesday's practice.
– Terry Godwin, the freshman receiver, was also missing, but his malady is known. He is dealing with a shoulder injury, which is not severe, a source told the AJC.
Godwin's injury is a sprain, the source said, and he should return to practice within the next day or so.
– Dyshon Sims, the sophomore offensive lineman, was at practice but was sitting it out, wearing a green jersey and watching on the side. Sims does not appear to have a lower body injury.
– Sophomore linebacker Davin Bellamy was in a green non-contact jersey and on an exercise bike. Whatever his injury is, it appears to be minor.
– Senior defensive lineman James DeLoach is practicing in a green jersey with his left hand heavily wrapped in a club.
Now some non-injury notes:
– Brice Ramsey appeared to be the first-team quarterback for this practice, which may just mean that it's his turn in the rotation. This marks the seventh practice day, which means each of the three candidates had two turns as the first-teamer. Of course Sunday was a two-a-day as well, so Faton Bauta may have already had his third turn as the first-teamer, and this is Ramsey's third.
Confused? That's understandable.
Ramsey continues to look pretty solid, at least during the limited drills that we get to see. Lambert, after a rough start last week, has been throwing some good balls. Bauta is who he is, not the strongest arm but accurate.
– The order of the tailbacks during Tuesday drills: Nick Chubb (obviously), Sony Michel, Keith Marshall, A.J. Turman, Brendan Douglas, Tae Crowder.
– The receivers, especially the freshmen, were being closely watched by Mark Richt … and harshly ridden by Bryan McClendon and Brian Schottenheimer.
Freshman Shaquery Wilson was getting the worst of it, especially after dropping a third straight pass. In this particular drill the receivers are supposed to keep running to a corner after their route, whether they catch it or not, and Schottenheimer was unhappy that Wilson had not done so.
"Shaquery, I'm tired of seeing you loaf and not catch balls, and not walk over to the corner there," Schottenheimer yelled, adding: "Shaquery, do you see Malcolm Mitchell drop balls and loaf and not go through to the corner?"
On the plus side, sophomore Shakenneth Williams keeps making solid catches while we're out there. He seems in good position to join Mitchell and Isaiah McKenzie in the top tier, especially with Godwin on the mend, though he should be back soon as well.

It was pretty much everything I expected; funny, cliche, silly, touching, uplifting, reasonably realistic at times. I love that there was a pretty good diversity of class levels in the story but it *was* middle class. The ending "confessional" pretty much made up for the classist myopia however. After all, it'd be really unrealistic to have the entire class spectrum represented within that storyline. I also loved the "trashy" mom best which surprised me. I thought I'd be offended and pissed but mostly she was just herself and IDGAF about it all in an empowering way for everyone else. Yes, over the top at times but they all were over-the-top. Once you accept that everything in this movie was over-the-top – including fantasy sequences spliced in well enough that a couple of times i was like "wtf? Oh, nevermind" – then its a really fun flick.


If you loved Domino Magazine and miss it, then you will be happy about Lonny Magazine.
Check it out when you need some inspiration.
i just heard about lonny yesterday! cannot believe how many magazines i love have bit the dust but i really miss domino!
I miss Domino as well. It was by far my favorite magazine. I hate when they cancel magazines I love and start sending me stupid magazine like Glamour. I have been receiving that one, but I am not sure what magazine it has replaced yet. I will have to check our Lonny.
Love it! I have "the wants" so bad now!
Domino was such a cool magazine. I love that you sent it to me. I'm so happy that there's something similar out there now.

The Cruise Of Lost Souls is another amazing chapter in the library of Nikopol Trilogy creator Enki Bilal and his Hunting Party partner, Pierre Christin. In a tale that deals with the battle between nature and the destructive practices of industry, we find the farming town of Liternos caught in the middle. After a military device is mysteriously hidden in the town, Liternos is literally lifted from the ground and sent on an incredible journey across the countryside. As the floating town nears the ocean, it raises the spirits of other villagers and peaks the interest of an army that are having strange problems of their own.


As the Rig Vedas and Buddhist sutras foretell, as well as the Hopi and Mayan calendars, we are in the midst of complete transformation�ecologically, economically, politically, culturally. This graceful introduction offers creative safe passage through the sometimes overwhelming transition, drawing on ancient and contemporary spiritual practices particularly useful for these times. The endings we experience are always the beginning of something else. Hence author Ji Hyang Padma organizes teachings around the four seasons. In living connected to natural rhythms�the stillness of winter, the renewal of spring, the ripening of summer, the harvest of autumn�we touch a wholeness that is the source of healing and happiness. Practical exercises at the end of each chapter promote this state of being and bring the mind home to its innate clarity. Ideally suited to anyone experiencing personal change�through career, relationships, or world events�the book provides a way into Zen for beginners as well as a refresher for the more advanced.
Ji Hyang Padma combines an academic career as Director of Spirituality and Education Programs at Wellesley College with her role as a Zen teacher. Ji Hyang has done intensive Zen training and teaching in Asia and North America for 20 years, 15 of these as an ordained nun.

Cloud computing has become popular and a huge platform for computing where large number of data are available online. Nature of cloud computing is distributed, due to this kind of nature they have become easy target for attackers to exploits the security vulnerability. Availability of data is most important part of cloud computing and even for economic growth of the society. Attack name Denial of Service (DoS) is an attempt to make the resource unavailable to its intended user by flooding network with malicious packets. Attacker spoof IP to hide the source of attack, however if the IP (Internet Protocol) address is kept same throughout the attack even it is spoofed DoS Attack can be prevented. Modified form of DoS attack name Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) helps to overcome the limitation of DoS attack. In DDoS instead of using attackers own IP it will use some compromised machine (bot machine) which will flood the targeting server in synchronized way. This paper contains survey on DDoS Attack in cloud environment.

Kristie ColbyFitnessComments Off on Why is it important to think about fat reduction and not weight reduction?
To get in shape, you have to consume a bigger number of calories than you devour.
Exercise can enable you to accomplish this by consuming off some additional calories.
In any case, a few people guarantee that activity isn't viable for weight reduction all alone.
This might be on the grounds that activity builds hunger in a few people, influencing them to eat a larger number of calories than they consumed amid the exercise.
Is work out extremely accommodating for weight reduction? This article investigates the confirmation.
Exercise at South bay gym is extremely awesome for your wellbeing.
It can bring down your danger of numerous illnesses, including coronary illness, diabetes, weight, osteoporosis and a few malignancies.
Indeed, individuals who work out all the time are thought to have up to a half lower danger of biting the dust from a significant number of these ailments.
Exercise is likewise unimaginably useful for your emotional well-being, and it can enable you to oversee pressure and loosen up.
Remember this when you think about the impacts of activity. Regardless of whether it isn't viable for weight reduction, despite everything it has different advantages that are similarly as vital (if not more).
Exercise is frequently exhorted for weight reduction, however individuals should go for fat misfortune.
If you basically lessen your calorie admission to get thinner, without working out, you will most likely lose muscle and also fat.
Truth be told, it's been evaluated that when individuals get in shape, about a fourth of the weight they lose is muscle.
When you cut back on calories, your body is compelled to discover different wellsprings of fuel. Tragically, this implies consuming muscle protein alongside your fat stores.
Counting an activity plan nearby your eating regimen can decrease the measure of muscle you lose.
This is likewise imperative since muscle is more metabolically dynamic than fat.
Forestalling muscle misfortune can help counter the drop in metabolic rate that happens when you get more fit, which makes it harder to get more fit and keep it off.
Also, the greater part of the advantages of activity appear to originate from changes in body arrangement, generally speaking wellness and metabolic wellbeing, not simply weight reduction.
Regardless of whether you don't lose "weight," you may even now be losing fat and building muscle.
Therefore, it tends to be useful to gauge your midriff size and muscle to fat ratio now and again. The scale doesn't recount the entire story.

Electoral Bonds: Supreme Court's latest order another letdown
BYPRAKASH KARATAPRIL 1, 2021
In light of the Supreme Court's recent order dismissing stay applications against the sale of electoral bonds in April, PRAKASH KARAT writes about how the order, seen in the light of the apex court's delay in deciding petitions challenging the legality of electoral bonds for over three years, is yet another betrayal of the principle of transparency in political funding.
ON March 26, The Supreme Court declined to stay the issuance of a fresh tranche of electoral bonds from April 1 to 10. The Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), an NGO, had filed an urgent plea before the apex court for withholding the issue of bonds meant for the four state assembly elections.
The Court's rationale for its decision is that the scheme has operated for the past three years without impediments and certain safeguards have been put in place.
These are unconvincing reasons. The primary opposition to the scheme is that it is an opaque way of funding political parties, and is in-built to favour the ruling party. As far as the purported safeguards in place are concerned, the only safeguard that the Court refers to is its 2019 order in which it asked political parties to give details of the electoral bonds they had received in a sealed envelope to the Election Commission. This order pertained only to the particular tranche issued at that time, and no follow-up action was taken.
Petitions languishing for over three years
The fundamental problem is that the judiciary is yet to dispose of petitions that challenged the electoral bonds scheme in 2018. The writ petitions challenging the bonds were filed by two NGOs – ADR and Common Cause, and the Communist Party of India (Marxist).
The Court's rationale for its decision is that the scheme has operated for the past three years without impediments and certain safeguards have been put in place. These are unconvincing reasons.
Sitting on these petitions, and merely stating that the scheme has been operational for three years without legal impediments, is to de facto legitimise the electoral bond scheme – a pernicious system of political funding which is not transparent, and facilitates corporate funding as a quid pro quo for favours done by the ruling party. Neither the donor is obliged to disclose the identity of the recipient of the money through bonds nor is the recipient party obliged to reveal the source of the donation – serving as a perfect conduit for kickbacks and illegal money to flow. Shell companies can be theoretically set up to divert illicit money to a party legally through electoral bonds.
BJP has overwhelmingly benefited from electoral bonds
According to responses to applications filed under the Right To Information Act, so far the State Bank of India has issued 14 phases of electoral bonds since February 2018. A total of 12,773 bonds were issued till the end of 2020, of which 12,632 bonds worth Rs. 6,472 crores were encashed. The first tranche was issued in February 2018 worth Rs. 222 crores worth of bonds. Of these, 94.5 per cent, i.e., over Rs. 210 crore went to the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP), as was clear from the BJP's audited accounts submitted to the Election Commission. In all subsequent tranches, the BJP has received over 90 percent worth of the bonds each time.
The fact that these donations are from corporates or high net worth individuals is clear from the fact that 92.12 percent of the bonds issued so far were of denomination of Rs. 1 crore or above.

Easing entry of big business money into politics
Along with the bonds scheme, the Modi government has amended the relevant laws to enable MNCs operating in India to donate funds as Indian companies, rather than as foreign contributions. Further, the limit of 7.5 percent of the average profits of three years of a company that could be given as a political donation was also done away with.
This has opened the floodgates for money from foreign companies and unchecked amounts from Indian companies to be donated to the ruling party. Given the authoritarian nature of the Modi government, most companies would not risk funding opposition parties. Though these bonds are anonymous as far as the public is concerned, the government can easily find out who is getting the bonds as they are being routed through a government-owned bank.
The April tranche of bonds will contribute to the BJP funds for the assembly elections, particularly those in West Bengal. So far, after Mumbai, the largest number of bonds were issued in Kolkata which, after Mumbai and Delhi, is the third-richest city in South Asia.
The government's claim that the bond scheme is encouraging white money and doing away with black money in elections is also spurious. Obviously, huge amounts of black money sourced from business interests are still a major part of election funding. The BJP, through bonds, is only monopolising the legal funding by corporates and the super-rich, while raising huge amounts of undeclared money from the same sources. The electoral bond scheme is, thus, valuable for the ruling party to formalise its nexus with big business.

In all subsequent tranches, the BJP has received over 90 percent worth of the bonds each time.
The Supreme Court has been derelict in its duty by not taking up the case on electoral bonds for three long years – just as its failure to decide the petitions challenging the annulment of Article 370 and the dismantling of the state of Jammu and Kashmir. This trend of judicial evasion has become marked from the tenure of CJI Ranjan Gogoi.
The Supreme Court has the responsibility of ensuring transparency in political funding and stopping the perversion of democracy through unaccountable and secret sources of money. The sooner it addresses the issue, the better it is for democracy in India. (IPA Service)

Tamara's Herbes interviews Lilith…er, me!
Herbally-inspired artisan and fellow etsian Tamara of Tamar's Herbes has recently interviewed me for her charming blog as a featured seller. I thought I would share this interview for those who would like to know a bit more about what is "behind" Lilith (or who!) as Tamara's questions are great. Don't miss that last 'random question' for a fun bit tidbit or two! Thanks Tamara.
I am trained as a medical anthropologist and work full time in the public health sector. The intersections of disease, healing, and culture have always interested me, from historical, cross-cultural, and even philosophical perspectives. I've been studying herbal medicine for a number of years now, and when I first discovered herbology, it was a total "ah-ha!" moment — finally everything was coming together in a way that really resonated with my life. It's my true passion! I am also a mother with a two and a half year old toddler, Maeve, and wife of Tony McNichol, who is an archaeologist and kindred spirit. I work a forty hour week and then spend between 15 and 20 hours more (at least!) toiling away at night in my basement workshop to create what is Lilith's Apothecary, a vehicle for my herbal knowledge.
HOW DO YOU BALANCE YOUR CREATIVE NEEDS WITH THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?
Well, first of all, Lilith does fulfill many of my creative needs. In that sense, I am lucky. I would love to be able to devote more of my life to the Apothecary, but at the moment, my day job provides an income that we can't really do without. The tough part is not finding moments to be creative, it's finding a way to make THAT my full-time job. Finding a balance between a full-time job and a 'hobby' that really wants to be a full-time endeavor is not easy, actually. Lilith is always growing! But that's a good thing.
You mean, philisophically? I could answer this questions a hundred times over. I personally believe that a lot of the problems that we have as a species boils down to the fact that we're just big apes at the end of the day. It sounds reductionist, but when you look at primate behavior, it makes more sense why we as humans do the things we do. That said, what we lack in biological superiority, we do have in the potential to be creative, wise, and cultured beings. I wish we could — as a species — tap into that aspect of ourselves more readily. Can't there be more Ghandis? Capitalism needs to go, for one thing. It demands an underclass.
WHAT DO YOU WANT THE WORLD TO REMEMBER ABOUT YOU WHEN YOU'RE GONE?
I think we all think about this. At the end of the day, I want to feel as though I have impacted people in a positive way. I don't think there is a legacy that is more important than being a loving, positive influence on those you love the most. I've been to memorial services of academics, for instance, who were mostly estranged from their own children because of the all-consuming nature of their work. The negative impact that had on those children is probably worse than the so-called legacy of their academic contributions.
Yoga is a wonderful respite, but I haven't practiced in a while. It's really hard to make time for myself that isn't "work" related, even in terms of Lilith. That said, Ikebana (the art of japanese flower arranging) has been a wonderful outlet for me. I study with an ikebana teacher of 30 years, Midori Tanimune, and she is an incredible influence on me. I have learned so much from her. I also make jewelry, and have a little site http://www.lilithsjewels1.etsy.com, and I do custom work for family and friends, which is a lot of fun.
TELL ME ABOUT YOUR ETSY STORE.
Etsy, for as 'expensive' as it ends up being between etsy fees and paypal fees, has been a wonderful thing for me. I have learned so much about my business since I opened Lilith's Apothecary in 2007. My photos have evolved, my products have evolved, I've been able to reach a much wider audience, and I get a real sense of what my market is and a deeper confidence in my product and what I have to offer.
WHAT DREW YOU TO THIS MEDIUM/HOW DID YOU GET STARTED?
In my studies of herbology, I learned how to make basic skin care preparations, including salves, ointments, syrups, linaments, tinctures, creams, and skin care products. I have always had sensitive skin, and I realized how superior my hand made products were compared to commercial versions. Family members started "ordering" products from me, and soon I was being commissioned to make things at christmastime as gifts. Once etsy came along, beginning to think about a real business began to take shape, and the etsy store has really forced me into a wonderful learning curve.
IS THIS A HOBBY OR FULL TIME BUSINESS?
I wish this was a full time business! Maybe someday it will be. It is not really a hobby though, either, as I devote 15-20 hours a week to the development of Lilith, on top of my full time job and family responsibilities. Do I *make* money? No, not really, but I am optimistic! Lilith is young.
WHAT DO YOU FIND INSPIRES YOU FROM DAY TO DAY?
Other crafters' stories of success can be very inspirational (though sometimes it makes me feel a bit defeatest too). At the end of the day, just knowing that I would not ever really want to live without Lilith keeps me going. It's too much of a wonderful creative outlet for me, and I absolutey thrive from the feedback and interaction with customers. Such a positive experience.
I love the creative evolution ~ the continual refining of a product as well as trying out new formulas and products.
The shameless self promotion that I know i should be engaged in 24/7 to really push these products and get myself out there.
I have no idea. But let's say that in ten years, I want Lilith to sustain me financially.
That's my dream. I don't know if it will happen but that's my dream.
DO YOU HAVE YOUR OWN STORE/WEBSITE?
I have a website that has been in development for a year now and a source of great frustration. Hopefully it will be together soon ~ that's a different story. I don't have a brick and mortar store and don't forsee that happening for a long time, though maybe some day! I am starting to do some consignment and wholesale and it will be interesting to see where that takes me.
I would like to be really 'clever' with this question, but I think I'll be self-indulgent and answer it as honestly as I can (of course it is somewhat impossible because there are so many people I'd love to sit down & share a glass of wine with). I am not sure if these famous people are supposed to be alive or if I can drag some back from the dead, but I'll be doubly indulgent and go with the latter: Marcel Duchamp, Alistair Crowley, and Gertrude Stein. Now that would be an interesting party!

thanks so much for your comments! I am glad that you found the interview interesting 😉 Certainly, natural skincare is really kind of a no-brainer, and just makes your skin feel more refreshed and less dried out and stripped. But i totally understand trying to use up what you've got and I'll be delighted to see you when you visit my etsy shop some day!
Thank you, Michele! And thanks for being such a loyal customer 😉 Have fun with those races!
