My magic in a bottle?
As I've been mentioning, I've been been super jazzed about making my own DIY skin care stuff lately.
My favourite has been making my own super amazing anti-acne and anti-aging moisturizer concoction.
This is because I love being able to pack in a ton of awesome, healing ingredients into one easy product without all the chemicals and junk that usually come along with formulated products (even natural ones).
I strongly suggest making your own moisturizer!
Because it's the best you're going to get for your skin, and the base recipe is SO friggin' easy to make.
It gives you very important background information on DIY moisturizing that you need to know before continuing on here.
The base recipe for the moisturizer is just two ingredients. It is the canvas from which you can paint yourself a lovely little mixture.
50% carrier oil of choice (either just one, or a combination of carrier oils). Click here to learn about choosing the right oil for your skin type.
And 50% aloe vera gel. I have been using and really like Green Leaf Naturals.
These are the base ingredients because the aloe soothes the skin and brings in moisture, and the oil then locks it in.
Mix them together in a dark glass dropper bottle, and shake. And you're done.
Shake it a little before each use… use a small squirt of it twice a day, massaged into damp or wet skin.
The oil should fully absorb within a half hour or so but may leave you looking a little dewy for a while, which is ok. Adjust the amount you use up or down based on your experience with this.
You can stop there with your DIY moisturizer.
I wanted to give you the most basic recipe so that you don't feel like DIY is super intimidating or that you have to dump a boatload of money right off the bat.
Well, I didn't stop there and you don't have to either… you can concoct to your heart's content!
After all, this two ingredient moisturizer is the perfect vessel to bring other healing ingredients deep into the skin.
I suggest making small batches, and maybe adding one ingredient each time to see if your skin likes it. It is important to go slow, especially if you have sensitive skin. We don't want to go too fast and make things worse.
Essential oils – this is a huge rabbit hole.. I honestly can't believe I never got into essential oils before! They're so cool! There are so many to choose from for the skin; since I have to narrow it down, I would recommend starting with frankincense and lavender.
MSM powder – Builds collagen fibers in the skin and fills in acne scars.
Antioxidants – Just a touch of Vitamin E oil and/or rosemary extract to extend the shelf life of your oils. This is most important if you are using hemp oil, or some other "dry" oil, in your mixture and don't want to always have to keep it in the fridge.
I've been playing around for a while now, and I've hit on the recipe that I am personally very happy with and am going to stick with for a while.
I think my skin looks and feels friggin' great!
My skin feels hydrated and even toned, fine lines are not as noticeable, any scabs or red marks heal in record time, and my usually clogged up forehead is smooth as a baby's bottom.
Here it is. Keep in mind that I have skin that's more on the dry side. You might change the carrier oils and essential oils if your skin is more oily.
You also may reduce the amount of aloe compared to the oil if you find that your skin is so dry that this isn't moisturizing enough.
You are free to play around with ingredients and see what makes your skin feel great!
If you want to make more than one ounce, then just multiply the above accordingly.
So basically all you do to make the moisturizer is sort the ingredients into oil soluble ingredients, and water soluble ingredients.
In this case, niacinamide B3 powder and MSM are both water soluble. So you would first put your aloe vera in a clean cup, and then mix these powders into it until they dissolve. You might need to mash the MSM with a spoon to get rid of all the chunks.
In another container (perhaps the dropper glass you want to store it in), mix together your carrier oils (in this case, the argan, tamanu, and hemp seed oil), and then add your oil soluble ingredients to that (in this case, the essential oils and the Vitamin E and rosemary extract).
Then mix them both together, preferably in the bottle you'll be storing it in.
Anyway, combine them, give it a shake, and voila.
The only thing that makes this slightly more complicated is if you want to add green tea. What I did was before I mixed anything else, I put the argan oil in a cup and then put my teaspoon of loose leaf green tea into it.
Then I placed the cup in a strainer over top of some boiling water (this is called a double boiler) for about an hour.
See, you have to heat up the green tea to diffuse it, otherwise you won't get any of the nutrients in it that are good for treating acne.
But you also don't want to heat up the oil so much that it damages it.
So this doubler boiler thing is the best way to go.
Anyway, then I strained the argan through a fine mesh strainer. Then I added the other oils and ingredients.
Instead of doing this the painful way as described above, you can instead just use green tea extract to add to your moisturizer (maybe at 10%?).
Only problem is that it's hard to find organic green tea extract that isn't suspended in alcohol.
This is the only organic one I could find that wasn't. It's mixed with glycerin instead, which is okay I think.
In future posts, I'll be going over all these ingredients in more detail and why I've included each of them in my own superwoman moisturizer!
Without an emulsifier, do these ingredients mix well or do they separate? Also, what would you say is the estimated shelf life of this DIY moisturizer?
I would never recommend mixing aloe (even store bought with a preservative) with other ingredients, especially oils, because you're diluting the preservative and creating a breeding ground for bacteria which will of course cause further acne breakouts.
So awesome i am experimenting with jojoba and aloe vera now too. It is a bit drying so maybe i should try some other oils too.. Also does this mean you are not caveman anymore? Do you wash your face too now?
Hi Jocelan, definitely try argan! It's great, it's much better than jojoba if your skin is more dry.
So i was trying to order from your links and it will not ship to canada. I tried Amazon.ca but it is over $70 there! How did you order it?
Thanks for sharing this Tracy!! I've made my own blends with different oils, which I love. I've also purchased some wonderful oil blends, which is a great option for someone that just doesn't want to do the DIY thing. But I've never tried mixing the oil and aloe. Makes so much sense. And I love that you don't bother adding an emulsifier!!
Awesome recipe! I was wondering.. If you put the "water" ingredients, like aloe vera, in the blender and slowly drizzle in the oil ingredients, would they emulsify (think mayonnaise) for more of a whipped consistency? I've made Rosemary Gladstar's "perfect cream" like this, but it's a bit too thick for a facial moisturizer.
Hi Lauren, I don't know. I've read a lot about this being done with shea butter, but never for these more liquidy oils. You could always try and let us know how it goes!
I think I will 🙂 I have an aloe plant that needs a haircut. I finally got the hang of making mayonnaise, so I feel like it will work for these ingredients as well.
I want toknow did you use the actual aloe vera gel from the plant or bought it from the store.
I have normal skin and do get blackheads on my t zone sometimes…it's a bit strange but no other oil works for me apart from coconut oil, not even jojoba and sweet almond as they clog all.my pores up from deep within and then it's really hard to get rid of them.Are there any specific oils that you could essential oils that you could recommend that I could mix along with the coconut oil and aloe Vera for.my type of skin keeping in mind that it wouldn't clog my pores.
Hi Hazel! A lot of people love coconut oil, but I am surprised you say it's the only thing that works for you.. it is quite high on the comedogenic scale (a 4 out of 5) and I always assume that people who get good results with it are not that acne prone. But everyone's different! Have you been using it for a long time?
Thanks for your response Tracy!
I have been using a coconut oil and pure aloe Vera gel mix for about a month and it feels great, however when I tried aloe Vera and almond or jojoba, it didn't work well, I get this feeling that I am from the tropics so probably that's the reason,,just guessing….
Also, I tried the papaya for about 15 days but I feel no sensation on my skin whatsoever, do you think I would need something stronger than papaya?
Also, I have some deep clogs left behind due to using the wrong oils, how do I get rid of these and also the open pores on the sides of my nose that's on my cheeks.
I am a huge fan of all your articles and the way you write…you are amazing?.
Hi Hazel, were you mixing the papaya with just water to make a paste? If so, try adding some organic apple cider vinegar to it. Start with a little bit, and as time goes on you can start using only ACV mixed with the papaya powder. This should create more red tingliness. If still no, then you can move up to pumpkin or pineapple powder.
I have been following your website for about 5 months now. And in 5 months my skin has been better than ever before. I barely have acne and it is so amazing what organic and simply recipes can do to your face. I wanted to thank you so much. I am still working on having a clear face but I will never use anything that is not natural again!
I did have a couple of questions.
I wear makeup everyday and cannot seem to find a good makeup remover, do you have a blog about removing your makeup the natural way? I cannot seem to find it.
I also wanted to know if you suggest a good cleanser to use before I moisturize my skin to get rid of all the impurities that acne leaves.
Also, should I use a toner before I use my moisturizer? Do I even need a toner after I create my natural moisterizer? I was using a rosemary toner before and my moisturizer was water and jojoba oil but now I have dry patchy skin on my active acne. So that is why i am now going to create my own moisturizer like you did in this post (which is amazing).
Hi Frami 🙂 Stoked to hear your skin is going so well!
Makeup removal… I need to maybe do an updated article on that, thanks for the idea. In the past I have recommended the Jane Iredale Magic Mitt: https://thelovevitamin.com/5457/how-to-remove-makeup-without-cleansers-oils-or-makeup-remover/ – a lot of people really do love this, however, I'm not as keen anymore to recommend any sort of mechanical exfoliation, especially on a daily basis (although the cloth is quite gentle).
What I would recommend instead is to apply an oil all over your face where you have makeup… doesn't have to be fancy… jojoba will do. Let it sit for a minute or two to let it dissolve the makeup, then wash it all off with raw honey. Then before your face dries, apply your DIY moisturizer. I don't think you need a toner!
Thank you so much for replying back to me. I appreciate it so much! Thank you I will definetly follow your instructions and will give you an update on my skin 🙂 You are THE BEST!
Hey, Tracy! 🙂 Thank you so very much for the recipe! It helps a lot for my oily skin! Could you recommend something for eye area, please? My skin is very dry around eyes. I've tried a lot of different things, including avocado oil, argan oil. They moisturize, but not much.
Thanks for sharing such great and practical advice. Any recommendations in regards to adding a particular oil for sunscreen?
I tried to buy from all your links. But i live in Canada and they all are not delivering there. How did you get them?
Hey Tracy, thanks so much, these two diy moisturizer articles are the most informative and comprehensive I've found out there on the www.
I'm pretty keen to try this. How would I go about it using shea butter…since its pretty solid at room temp? If I melt and mix it with water will it still go all clumpy once it cools?
Yep you would gently melt the shea butter and when it's cooled a little but not quite solid yet, mix in all the other oils and ingredients. It works really well if you use like an electric mixer.. like a handheld electric egg beater thing. I tried this once using aloe vera and it seemed to make a really nice mix. No clumps. I never tried water though, so can't say on that.
Awesome, thanks for the reply! Ill have to try that. I also had an idea/question about application of the moisturizer. I like to touch my face as little as possible and I find that applying oils kind of requires a lot of touching. What about misting these moisturizer concoctions on? Do you reckon that might work, and allow for easier spreading and less touching?
Thanks! I might try the zinc and see how it goes. The aloe I use in my DIY is a gel so it's a little thicker consistency so maybe it will work! I guess we will see!
I think you explained this in one of your prior posts, but in regards to jojoba oil….should I worry about using jojoba vs argan or hemp since jojoba is a 2 on comedogic rating? I have combination skin (oily with spots that are dry patches, probably due to use of epiduo and differin gel)…I ask because I think you mentioned jojoba is one of your favorites? To be honest, I have yet to dive into using any kind of oil all over my face yet because I'm terrified. lol.
Which brings me to my next question…would I use the oil creation in this post before or after using my retin products?
This is awesome, thank you. I was wondering if you knew of any natural sunscreens that you could add, someone above mentioned zinc but do you know anything about coconut oil as a natural sunscreen?
My question is, if I am just starting out with the caveman regimen do you recommend moisturizing as part of it or doing it completely like you were previously? My skin is naturally dry like yours is, so I was curious if you were getting better results from your skin now that you were adding that.
I've learned a lot about external skin care in the last year or so, and from what I've learned is that the caveman will work a lot better AFTER you've ditched synthetic skin care / synthetic makeups, purged your skin of all the old chemical ingredients that get stuck in the pores after years and years of use, and gotten your skin naturally regenerating and exfoliating itself on its own. In order to do this, moisturizing and hydrating the skin with oils and healing natural ingredients is very important, and the enzyme masks help this process a lot too. After your skin is functioning better, you can then transition to the caveman if you wish, although I'm finding no real downside to continuing to moisturize. I quite like it now and find my skin feels and looks good with the beneficial ingredients.
Anyway – if you jump straight into caveman after using years of chemical products, it's likely that your skin may work itself, but it will probably take a lot, lot longer!
hi tracy! im currently washing my face once a day with a sensitive acure wash, but my face has become really inflamed all of a sudden. so i now just wash with raw honey once a day and use Acure organics argan oil twice a day. the oil just seems to sit on my face, and my fave is still itchy and red from inflammation. however, i have dry skin and the skin on my face at the moment is hot to the touch, so i feel like argan oil should work? it usually works (ive been using it since july), but maybe i should switch to jojoba oil?
Also, i have applied aloe directly from my plant onto my face, and my face really reacts to it. its super drying instead of moisturizing. what do you think i should hse in place of aloe gel if I am making my own moisturizer with argan or jojoba as the carrier?
if you would permit me to reply to your comment, i had a similar experience using aloe directly from the plant. It made my skin feel dry, and a little itchy, even though every thing i read about it says it should be soothing.
I tried store bought aloe vera for topical use ( lily of the desert in a tube) and it was better. It didn't find it very moisturizing either, but at least no itching.
I have just ordered another brand on amazon to make this moisturizer recipe because it has more natural ingredients than lily of the desert. I will try it on it's own before putting it in the recipe to see if I react to it.
I just wanted to say i finally followed your recipe and am getting awesome results! I was using jojoba oil and aloe before but this new mixture is a million times better! I highly recommend it!! I wish i knew about this earlier!
Woohoo! 🙂 Glad to hear this!
how to preserve it? and for how long?
What;s your experience with shea butter?
I have been super busy in the last months, so I haven't checked your website as often as I wish I could do.
My question regarding this DIY moisturizer is the following. Do I have to mix that much of aloe vera and oil? Do I have to add the mixture first to the big bottle and then add a portion of it to the dropper bottle?
I have also read your other post about frankincense, that you don't recommend to apply directly to your skin. Can this oil be added to the DIY moisturizer if I use for example aloe vera and jojoba or argan oil?
Do you recommend applying argan oil directly on skin?
Hi Andrea, no you can definitely make a smaller mixture, and you can keep it in whatever container you want. But since I like to make a bigger batch, and to keep it fresh longer, I like to keep most of it in the fridge and a little bit in the smaller container in the bathroom. And yes essential oils need to be diluted in a carrier oil .. such as jojoba or argan. So yes if you make a DIY mixture with aloe and argan or jojoba, you can add the frankincense right in there.
i was wondering when you were going to start worrying about wrinkles! I have been doing a modified caveman for a few years now( distilled water at night) .
I dont have much acne anymore ( i am 40) but being acne prone and sensitive to products, i love the freedom of using NOTHING.
Once in a while, my skin does get a little flaky and then i will apply a drop of jojoba oil or argan oil.
I notice when i use nothing, the skin is more balances and less dry. When i start using oil, it looks nice when i apply it, but after a few days, it seems to start a little cycle of my skin NEEDING it.
I like using nothing, but at 40 I worry about wrinkles. I wonder how many women out there over 40 use nothing on their face. I have worried and cried over my acne for many years in my life, now i feel a little angry that I should worry about wrinkles.
When i had pimples, i would feel an anxious need to put something on it to try and fix it. Now i see wrinkles, and i feel the same anxious need to put something on it. I dont like this feeling. Will i EVER be at peace with my skin?!
Hi Diane, haha yes wrinkle worry started to kick in. I had a little bit of an anxious year but I'm feeling better about it. I think it is mostly a mental balancing act – it needs to be understood that we want to take that action in response to the anxiety and not actually to the acne or the wrinkles. Yes somehow the knee-jerk reactions often make the anxiety worse. I think it's a lot about acceptance… accepting that you probably will never like the acne or wrinkles, but don't let it ruin your day.. or your life. Just keep on with the business of living despite it! And don't make decisions about skin care when you are pushed into it by a state of anxiety. Give it a few days and decide what you want to do when you aren't so "in it".
Anyway – I just published an article about humectants and look out for my next blog post after that (that I am about to publish this week)… maybe you need to add some humectants in addition to oil.
Thanks a lot for sharing all this info with us, I been reading all your articles and I love them, I just can not stop reading them hehe. Well I am willing to make my own moisturizing cream right now and I have a big question. When you talk about humectants in other articles, where in my daily routine the moisturizing cream would fit, before the humectant or after it or would the moisturizing cream replace the humectant?
I just have one last concern, I used the last week a product that my dermatologist gave for my acne wich has niacimide 2% and tazarotene 0.05% and it gave me a really bad allergic reaction on my skin so I am not using it any longer. But now I see the niacimide and all its benefits and the same for the tazarotene(vitamin A) and I dont know if maybe is the mix or the quantities.. I dont know if I should include the niacimide on my moisturizing cream…I already bought it je.. well… thank you for your help I really appreciate it 🙂 Have a great weekend!
Hey Tracy! Great idea 🙂 thank youuu!
My skin it's sensitive and I have still breakouts and blemishes, I do have also lots blackheads and I am afraid to put anything on my skin, even oils.
However my skin gets flaky and dry so definitive I have to do something about this.
I was thinking to make a papaya mask but someone mentioned here about that papaya mask cause him/her growing beard?!
Do you use any kind of cleanser before applying this moisturizer?
I'm dealing with finding any kind of moisturizer or oil that doesn't make me oiler. I'm currently using Jojoba mixed with Frankincense and a few drops of Grapefruit but I get so oily throughout the day that I look like a BP spill.
I'm not sure if it's zinc oxides in the SPFs I use, but I am a total grease ball. I'm currently using the EltaMD SPF 45 my aesthetician recommended I use. Help.
Hi angela, maybe just try aloe vera and glycerin and that's it, without the added oil. Like 10% glycerin to 90% aloe vera in a mixture, and see what happens.
What's your input on red raspberry seed oil and safflower oil?
Safflower oil high in linoleic and comedonic: 0.
I have extremely oily skin and nothing works. I do love aloe vera gel and it gives me a matte finish (even just for one hr lol) and need to increase aloe vera to 70-75% of the serum mixture . The other 20-25% oil.
I'm currently using Jojoba and it breaks me out like crazy.
I also cleanse with honey, which I enjoy.
Ok quit the jojoba then! It's definitely no longer my fave oil. It's kind of too waxy feeling, now that I've branched out.
I love red raspberry oil, it's light yet moisturizing, high in linoleic, supposedly very sun stable so its less finicky than hemp, low to no comedogenic. I use it now. Never tried safflower, don't know as much about it but I think it's fine too.
There's actually an oil I learned about recently — sea buckthorn berry oil that in studies reduced oily skin and acne by somewhere around 45% after 8 weeks. It basically inhibits DHT conversion in the skin (the androgen that causes acne). Green tea does the same thing.
I would try that out, and mix the sea buckthorn berry oil with your red raspberry oil. Apparently sea buckthorn has kind of a dark pigment and it could be used straight but might end up making your face a weird colour. So mix it in the ratio that is ok with you.
Remember to apply all this to damp or wet skin! Good luck!
I've ordered some red raspberry seed oil samples and I like it thus far. No break outs at least. My skin is still oily but I like the feel of red raspberry seed oil. Your mention of glycerin is a good idea. I suppose right now my skin doesn't retain the water and glycerine should help this, right?
I will try sea buckthorn!
But, I have a lot of dead skin. Do you think I need to moisturizer with some oil of shea butter ?
But I do have a question … do you use a preservative in your moisturizer? Just wondering as formulations with aqueous components are prone to microbial growth. I know you mentioned the preservatives in the aloe you get, but I've been trying to figure out myself whether that is enough after adding the additional ingredients. Glycerin is bacteriostatic but only when used in much higher concentrations. Or do you just make really small batches at a time that can be used before microbial growth can occur?
Hi Kelly – I don't honestly know the answer, but I haven't had any trouble so far with the preparation. I feel like I go through it fast enough I suppose?
Could vitamin c be added to this moisturizer? If so, how much? Or do I substitute B3 powder for vitamin c? Thanks!
Yes you can add Vitamin C but if you use the Vitamin C, then I wouldn't use the niacinamide as they aren't compatible apparently!
Can you add hyaluronic acid serum to this recipe? How would you go about that and how much?
I want to make this recipe for a 5 month supply because I will be abroad. I am using a aloe vera moisturiser with preservatives in it, instead of pure aloe vera gel. Do you think I will need to add more preservatives to be sure?
I want to use lavender and maybe tea tree oil.
I have a prescription face cream (metronidazole) and was wondering the application order you might think is best with your diy moisturizer. Online searches seem to give conflicted answers. Thanks!
I stumbled upon this recipe about a week ago and I have just made the mixture today! Instead of using frankincense and lavender for the essential oil part, I used tea tree oil (6 drops) and lavender oil (6 drops). I usually use tea tree oil for a spot treatment because it works so well for getting rid of pimples, but would it be okay to use in this moisturizer? I am scared it will cause too much dryness.
Hi Romy, only your skin will tell! What causes dryness for one may be fine for someone else. I wouldn't overdo it but adding some to the mix should be fine.
I would like to try niacinamide for it's oil/sebum controlling properties. Before I purchase it I would like to know if you've seen any mattified effects in Diy powder version?
Hi, I recently found your blog and have since ordered a couple things from your referrals. One of which being the newest niacinmate (sp) b3. The first couple days were great then I started noticing white heads and a large cyst on my neck. I mixed a quarter teaspoon to about 3/4 of an ounce of other things I've been using with success.
Does the b3 have a purging stage?
I have been using the moisturizer above and washing my face with honey now for a few months. I have also tried the papaya mask. The first two months my skin was better then ever, but now I'm starting to get a lot of little pimples on my forehead and chin. Any idea why? Am I missing something?
I love your site, your articles on DIM, liver support, manuka honey, and oils have been a saving grace after suffering for over 20 years of constant, hormonal cystic acne, and my face is now clearer than it has ever been since I was a little girl.
I am going to try making a DIY moisturizer with aloe and possibly lavender based on this article, but I have a question: I recently watched the video where you show how you used to wash your face, and was wondering what you think about splashing water on one's face AFTER rubbing in the DIY moisturizer (as well as before), then patting dry with a towel like you used to do with the jojoba oil.
I ask because I have very oily skin, and when I DON'T splash with water after applying oil (right now I just use hemp seed oil) and then pat dry, my face stays really oily.
I think it's totally fine, we all have slightly different skin — it's definitely fine to experiment and do whatever variation makes your skin feel the best.

STEPPING INTO BROKENNESS

Where Love and Suffering Meet
By Jeanelle Reider
Jamie Dimon often wonders what Baby Grace's life is like now.
As is true of many children born in the war-torn Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Baby Grace was thrust into tragic circumstances at birth. Her mother, faced with the prospect of raising a child whose father was not her husband, abandoned Baby Grace the moment she was born.
By God's mercy, MAF staff found the tiny infant—placenta still attached—lying helpless in a field near their airstrip.
And this is where Baby Grace's story first intersected with Jamie's.
Collaborative compassion
Jamie and her pilot husband, Chad, headed to the DRC over five years ago to serve with MAF. They knew it wouldn't be easy. As Jamie said, "Suffering is common, expected, in Congo."
There is a mission hospital in Nyankunde, the village where the Dimons were assigned. Many of the patients are newborns whose mothers have died during childbirth. A few infants have been abandoned because of their HIV/AIDS status. More recently, escalating conflicts in the region have caused an influx of newborns whose mothers have been killed in the violence.
Jamie is a registered nurse with a background in pediatric intensive care. She wondered: was God forging a way for her to bring healing and hope into the suffering?

These precious babies have one thing in common: malnutrition. Even if a friend or family member can be found to care for them, infant formula is beyond the means of most Congolese families.
A few months before the Dimons moved to Nyankunde, Anna La Rochelle, a nurse practitioner from another missions group who had started an orphan formula program at the hospital, invited Jamie to assume leadership of the program. Seeing this as a God-given opportunity, Jamie agreed.
Jamie Dimon holds Baby Grace at the hospital. Photo by Gabriella Dimon.
With the help of Mama Sunday, a Ugandan nurse who worked in the Nyankunde hospital's ICU and maternity ward, and Dr. Lindsey Cooper, a pediatrician who ran the malnutrition center at the hospital, the program thrived. Babies were placed with caregivers, and for the first year of their lives, infant formula was purchased and delivered regularly. Homes were visited to ensure the infants were growing and well cared for. Over the years, some 100 babies were given a chance at life.
And, one day, a baby girl was found abandoned near the MAF airstrip.
For the first few weeks, nurses cared for the little girl in the maternity ward. They gave her the name "Grace." Jamie and fellow MAF missionary Sheryl Strietzel often visited the baby and at times brought her into their homes. Eventually, Baby Grace was placed with her maternal grandmother and sustained through the orphan formula program.
A distressing disruption
In April 2021, the rat-a-tat of guns and the angry shouts of military and militia filled the air. Over 35,000 people in Nyankunde and nearby villages fled into the forest. Mama Sunday, Anna La Rochelle, and Lindsey Cooper also were forced to evacuate. MAF staff—including Chad, Jamie, and their four young children—relocated to nearby towns.
At the time of this writing, no one had been able to return.
Nor did anyone know what had happened to Baby Grace and many of the other infants. Jamie and the others trust that they are still in the care of families who love them, safe from harm. They hold onto hope that one day they may see them again.
In the meantime, MAF continues ministry flights from the town of Bunia. And Mama Sunday and MAF missionary Donna Jacobsson make sure that formula is delivered to the seven babies whose whereabouts are known.
Just being faithful
Life stories are rarely tied up in neat little bows. The Congolese people know it, MAF staff know it, and chances are you know it too.
Still, the loose ends can be excruciating.
When Jamie tried to describe the suffering, she faltered. "There are just no words … the fact that we've been able to make a little bit of a difference—I mean, it's just a drop in the bucket, but it's something."
For such a time as this, Jamie and her co-laborers stepped into their broken world and loved as Jesus would. When you support MAF, you, too, are reaching into the lives of hurting men, women, and children and showing them there is a Father who cares for them.

Q: supply power factor of a residential transformer A transformer winding is generally more inductive than resistive thus there is a considerable phase difference between voltage and current, so wouldn't  the supply power factor be very very poor in case of residential transformers where no means for power factor corrections are used?

A: Unloaded transformers look like inductors.  However, a resistive load on the secondary makes the primary look more resistive too.  For any decent transformer, the primary looks mostly resistive when the secondary is loaded with a resistance near the power limit of the transformer.
So the power factor is very poor when a transformer is drawing little power, and gets better as the power increases.  Fortunately, you care more about the power factor at high power levels.
All that said, the grid does generally look partially inductive.  Large industrial motors generally present a more inductive power factor than that added by typical transformers.
Large electric customers that pay extra for a low power factor usually have a system of compensating for the inductive power factor.  This is usually banks of capacitors that are switched across the power line to cancel out the inductance.

Before seeing this film, I thought right away that it looked like an M. Night Shyamalan movie. Perhaps it would be reminiscent of Signs (2002). I assumed that Shyamalan was the director until I saw that it was directed by, produced by, and stars John Krasinski.
I am really picky when it comes to horror movies that I get excited about. This one sparked my interest. I saw this on opening night, but I did not get to review it until now.
A Quiet Place takes place in the not so distant future where people are being hunted by vicious creatures that attack when they hear sound. The film follows one particular family that is trying to survive.
The movie was directed by John Krasinski and the noteworthy cast includes John Krasinski, Emily Blunt (Krasinski's wife), Millicent Simmons, Noah Jupe, and Cade Woodward.
Krasinski has come a long way from his days of selling paper in The Office (2005). I really only started taking him seriously after seeing 13 Hours (2016). I think that he has successfully transitioned from comedy to more serious acting and this movie is further proof.
A Quiet Place was way better than Signs.
The chemistry between Blunt and Krasinski felt very genuine. Such a simple thing like that is easy when it is a real life couple onscreen. However, that connection can make all of the difference.
This is not a bloodbath horror movie. That is what I especially enjoyed about A Quiet Place. The film keeps you in suspense throughout basically the entire movie. It is edge-of-your seat excitement with enough jumpy scenes to make it worth your while.
The film is unique because it really does not contain a lot of dialogue. I feel like this adds to the suspense. The theater that I was in was eerily a quiet place. Our eyes were glued to the screen, and the hair on the back of our necks stood up as we were desperately wanting to know what was going to happen next.
A Quiet Place was a breath of fresh air for the horror genre. It is a reminder that a good spooky story meticulously executed is all that it takes to be a quality scary movie. It seems like such a simple concept, but most horror movies these days have trouble achieving this. There really was nothing wrong with this film. It was chilling from start to finish. Alfred Hitchcock would be proud.
High Tension is a French foreign horror film. The movie was made in 2003, but released in the US in 2005. You can watch the film with subtitles or have the French dubbed over in English. Some people don't like watching movies with subtitles. Others don't like watching a movie that has been dubbed over in a different language because the lips don't match up with the words. I have never had a problem with either format, but sometimes it is good to know what you are getting yourself into before watching a movie like that.
The movie is about two college girls, Marie (Cecile De France) and Alexa (Maiwenn), who vacation to Alexa's family's house in the country, way out in the middle of nowhere. The girls planned on getting a lot of studying done in the quiet remote home. What they didn't plan on was getting a strange visitor in the middle of the night who turned out to be a murdering psychopath.
The film was directed by Alexandre Aja, and the rest of the noteworthy cast includes Philippe Nahon, Franck Khalfoun, Andrei Finti, Oana Pellea, and Gabriel Spahiu.
The first time that I watched this movie was in 2005. It was around the time that the movie Saw (2004) was popular. Horror movies had begun to master bloody brutality. Blood and guts seemed as real as they had ever been on screen and horror movies were celebrating this fact. High Tension joined the party of gruesome graphic violence.
It's hard to enjoy a movie of this kind. However, the shock value throughout the film is highly prevalent. It's disgusting and disturbing. It's vile, but full of horror. The unspeakable acts of violence depicted in High Tension are grotesque, but the filmmaking is superb.
The soundtrack in the movie is spine-chilling and it only serves to magnify just how obscenely intense the film actually is. High Tension is the perfect title, because that is exactly what the movie is full of. The film may simply be a slasher strictly for the shock value, but it is one that will keep you on edge waiting for what will happen next. It's like a horrific car wreck that is hard not to stare at. You don't want to see it, but you cannot look away. The grisly images become a stain that you can't seem to scrub from your mind.
The film is a bloodbath. It's one of the bloodiest, most vicious movies that I have ever seen. If you couldn't handle watching Saw, then High Tension is probably too much for you.
I don't usually like this type of movie, and it is not one that I could watch often, but for its genre, the filmmakers did an excellent job. I know good filmmaking when I see it, and I'm not going to fault the film because of its genre. High Tension is the ultimate slasher with a twist.


Pushing Daisies movie plans were the topic of conversation between series creator Bryan Fuller and Film School Rejects on Tuesday, and according to Fuller, it could happen.
The show would need "between $10-$15 million" to become a reality, Fuller stated, but with the recent success of Rob Thomas and Kristen Bell with their Veronica MarsKickstarter campaign, Fuller is seriously considering the possibilities.
Fuller called Pushing Daisies his "pallet cleanser" after working on "really, really dark material," referring to the upcoming Hannibal Lecter series Hannibal.
Fuller's series ran for two seasons and starred Lee Pace as Ned, a man whose touch can bring the dead back to life temporarily. He uses his skill to solve crimes and collect reward money until he runs into childhood sweetheart Chuck (Anna Friel).
She's lying on a slab, and he can't have that, so he brings her back to life and then refuses to put her back down. The one caveat: if he ever touches her again, she'll be gone for good.
Fuller said he approached Barry Sonnenfeld about directing the film version of Pushing Daisies, to which the Men in Black director suggested they go to a studio with the idea.
"I mean, with Veronica Mars they laid out their plan, had all their ducks in a row, and knew what they were doing by the time they hit Kickstarter. I have a lot of catchup to do to see what is possible for Pushing Daisies, what the studio involvement would be, and what the studio's appetite would be," Fuller said.
One thing is for sure: now is the best time to do it.
Who knows where Veronica Mars funding will end up? And with other series like the spy show Chuck and Friday Night Lights (per ScreenRant) seriously considering the move, it may not be long before the market becomes saturated with dead TV projects looking for new life from crowd-funding.
Do you believe crowd-funding forgotten projects is here to stay or just a fad, and would you pay to see a Pushing Daisies movie?

The NYC Educational Outreach Committee of the International Cultic Studies Association (ICSA) was formed in 2013 by people who have experienced and studied the impact of manipulative organizations, often referred to as "cults" or "high-demand groups." Like sexual abuse and domestic violence, cultic abuse is gaining recognition as a problem that needs to be confronted and understood.
Our goal is to provide the means by which educators, mental health professionals, religious advisors, families, and people in general can begin to recognize and understand the dynamics of a cultic relationship, and the potential harm it can cause.
Committee members are available to give presentations in the greater New York area.
Papers on basic cultic issues developed by the committee are available online at icsahome.com/networks/education/nyed/model-presentations. These papers may be used or developed by others for use as needed.

YouthCare opened the Orion Center in 1984. At the time, it was one of the first programs in the nation to receive a federal grant enabling six agencies working with runaway and homeless youth to co-locate in one building. These multiple partners created a constellation of services—thus, the name Orion. Located on the corner of Denny and Stewart, the Orion Center serves as a safe and welcoming place for young people ages 12-24 during the day. Following dinner, the Orion Center transitions into the Young Adult Shelter where twenty young people ages 18-24 can enjoy a hot meal, work on goals with their case managers, and sleep safely at night.

Trump says Clinton would " abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment," which the former Secretary of State has denied ever saying.
Wilmington, North Carolina (CNN)
Donald Trump said Tuesday that if Hillary Clinton gets to pick Supreme Court justices, there's "nothing you can do, folks … although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is."
Trump's ambiguous comments alarmed some political observers as to whether he was threatening her life or calling for increased political activity.
Robby Mook, Clinton's campaign manager, issued a one-sentence statement in response to Trump.
"This is simple — what Trump is saying is dangerous. A person seeking to the be president of the United States should not suggest violence in any way," he said.
But Jason Miller, Trump's senior communications adviser, said Trump was merely talking about Second Amendment supporters large influence as a group.
"It's called the power of unification — 2nd Amendment people have amazing spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political power. And this year, they will be voting in record numbers, and it won't be for Hillary Clinton, it will be for Donald Trump," he said.
The GOP nominee sought to rally voters Tuesday highlighting the next president's role in selecting Supreme Court justices and his commitment to the Second Amendment.

The lawsuit says the city of Santa Monica is discriminating against property owners who rely on Airbnb-type rentals. That company also recently joined the fight against the law with a lawsuit of its own.
Arlene Rosenblatt, a resident leading the suit, alleges that the city's ordinance caused her to suffer financially. Moutrie says the ordinance does not completely infringe on property owner's rights.
She said the ordinance is not about taking away from property owners financially but that the main cause is to keep the interest of the greater public in mind and to keep a close eye out for safety issues.
"I think the council's main concern about vacation rentals is the adverse impacts on surrounding neighbors in residential neighborhoods and buildings," Moutrie said.
Ronsenblatt filed the suit for herself and on behalf of other residents on June 21 in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. The lawsuit is filed against the city council of Santa Monica and the city of Santa Monica.
Airbnb-type rentals can take away from the hospitality industry.
Rosenblatt is asking that the ordinance be deemed unconstitutional, while Airbnb Co. also filed suit against the city of Santa Monica on Sept. 2, alleging that the May 2015 ordinance violates the U.S. Constitution's First and Fourth amendments.
Santa Monica is the third California city to be sued by Airbnb. In this suit, the company says Santa Monica is going over the line for demanding several requirements of property owners, including providing their business licenses on online listings. It also says that Airbnb would be held accountable if hosts do not follow such rules.
"Santa Monica's clumsily written law punishes hosts who depend on home sharing to make ends meet and travelers looking for low-cost accommodations near the beach," said Alison Schumer, a spokeswoman for Airbnb.
Airbnb noted in court filings that its lawsuit is similar to others filed against the city of Anaheim but were dismissed after the city informed Airbnb and HomeAway that its law would not apply to hosting platforms if it were determined to violate federal and state laws.
The local Santa Monica resident, Rosenblatt, is asking for general damages, punitive damages, interest, court costs and any other deals the court will allow. Attorneys Robert L. Esensten and Jordan S. Esensten of Esensten Law are representing Rosenblatt in the case.

As in the first phase local elections, the CPN-UML has emerged the largest party in the second phase elections held on June 28.
The UML almost swept in the hilly districts of Province No 1 except for Panchthar, Okhaldhunga and Bhojpur. Even in Tarai districts of Jhapa and Sunsari UML fared better than NC. However, in Morang UML failed to win even in its strongholds like Urlabrai and Ratuwagadhi.
In Province 5 and 7 UML did far better than it had expected. It won elections in the Tarai districts like Rupandehi, Kapilvastu and Kailali despite its anti-Madhes image. More surprising it was the UML's win in Tikapur municipality where 7 police men including a minor was killed in August 2015. The municipality was believed to be stronghold of Madhes-based parties, but UML's Tapan Rawal won the Mayoral post.
Many argued that the voters expressed their ire against ruling parties for providing compensation of Rs 15 million to Resham Chaudhary, believed to be mastermind behind the Tikapur carnage.
Likewise, the party is leading counting in Siddhartha Nagar Municipality, a stronghold of Madhes-based parties in Rupandehi and several municipalities of Kapilvastu, Banke, Kailalai and Kanchanpur.
UML almost swept in Dang from where NC had won all seats in 2013 CA elections.
The Tarai-based parties and their cadres have been portraying the UML as anti-Madhes party but the voters in Province 5 and 7 proved the allegations wrongs. Even in Province 1 the people of Sunsari voted for UML. In Banke, Bardiya and Dang the party won more seats while in hills it almost swept baring Arghakahnchi where NC and Maoist Centre had forged alliance.
But the UML managed to defeat the NC-Maoist alliance in Rupandehi as UML was leading in Butwal Sub Metropolitan City when this story was in progress.
In Province 7 NC emerged the biggest party, however a few important municipalities were captured by the UML.
By the time this report was prepared, UML has won 20 seats more than NC but the Maoist-Centre was left far behind with only 35 seats in total whereas UML won chiefs in 125 local bodies and NC in 105 by the time this story was developed. However, nearly 150 seats of deputy chairs/mayors were won by UML.
NC was leading in Biratnagar, the only Metropolis but was behind UML in five sub-metropolitan cities, including Butwal where the NC and Maoist Centre have forged election alliance. In Tulsipur and Ghorahi sub-Metrpolitant Cities UML won while it was leading in Dharan and Itahari Sub-Metrpolitan Cities. RPP won in Nepalgunj Sub-metropolitan City and NC was leading in Dhanghadi Sub Metropolitan City.
Although the Maoist-Centre fared better in the second phase polls than the first phase, the voters seemed to have rejected the Maoist, as it won only in limited Gunaplaikas and only in five municipalities. Although Maoist's presence was weak in Province 1, it won 8 Gaunpalikas in this province.
The poor show of the Maoist-Centre clearly suggested that the party has lost its relevancy. Moreover, the weakening position of the Maoist-Centre can be taken as Nepal's march towards two-party system. Other parties, including RPP won less than five seats. Even the Madhes-based parties like Upendra Yadav's Federal Alliance failed to win in more than five local units.
Many think that the voters punished NC because of the party's tilt towards Indian establishment and its stance in favour of the demands of the Madhes-based parties. Interestingly, in the districts with high literacy rates like Jahpa and Ilam, the UML won all municipalities and over two thirds Gaunpalikas.

San Diego's Covario Rides Wave of Search Engine Marketing
I didn't really know what to expect when I sat down with Covario CEO Russ Mann recently over a lunch of fajitas and enchiladas. Many CEOs adopt a kind of taciturn presence to maintain their command authority, but words gush from Mann. Ask a question, and he responds at length. Yet the most-succinct explanation of Covario's business and the potential market that Mann and co-founder Dema Slotin saw more than five years ago came when he was describing a typical Covario customer.
"Our clients are some of the largest companies in the world," Mann says. "They may be operating 50 websites in 20 countries and they are paying for hundreds of thousands of search terms to lead prospective customers to their websites. They want to make sure that every single phrase works, and of course, they want to analyze which phrases and terms work best."
And that, in a nutshell, is what Covario does. The three-year-old, venture-backed startup provides high-end analytical software and services for search engine marketing, or SEM, and search engine optimization, also known as SEO. Mann says an average client pays Covario from $100,000 to $200,000 a year; its Fortune 1,000 customers include Intel, Adobe and Procter & Gamble. If that seems pricey, Mann says Covario's sophisticated analytics have helped some companies increase Web traffic such that their online profits surged between 30 and 300 percent. "Not their revenue," Mann emphasizes. "Profitability."
He explains that most of Covario's clients "simply license our software to do the PPC (pay-per-click) and SEO work in-house, leveraging our software for analysis and optimization, or to better work with and keep track of the agency doing it for them. About 10 of our 65 clients outsource the entire buying and optimization work to us, and we in effect become the agency," Mann says.

Revealed: Hospitals under the microscope over environmental impact as Royal Free set to miss emissions target
Harry Taylor And Hannah Somerville
Published: 12:27 PM October 24, 2019
Hampstead High Street. Picture: Ken Mears - Credit: Archant
The Royal Free Hospital Trust is set to miss its target to reduce its carbon footprint.
In its latest annual report, the trust was aiming to reduce its overall carbon footprint by 25 per cent by 2023/2024.
It is currently measured against the floorspace at the hospital, by which metric it's set to miss it by some way. Yet the report points out that when measured against staff numbers, it is on track to meet them.
When asked by this newspaper for its latest environmental and sustainability policies, a spokesperson was not able to provide them, but instead pointed to the trust's latest annual report. It is in the process of drawing up a new sustainable management plan.
A spokesperson said: "The trust is developing a sustainable development management plan, which will include a strategy for tackling environmental issues. The plan will cover areas including energy, waste management, procurement and transport."
It said a new "Warp It" reuse and recycle system for staff had saved 60 tonnes of rubbish from going to landfill in the last two years.
The report, published earlier this year, says it is trying to meet the NHS's target of cutting its carbon footprint by 28pc by 2020.
10 'Ruining our vibe': Muswell Hill coffee shop divides community opinion
Healthcare and treating patients makes up for 75pc of its carbon footprint. The trust believes its combined heat and power facility at its Hampstead site, which also powers parts of Gospel Oak has saved it 6,200 tonnes of CO2 a year. UCLH has a similar facility.
The Royal Free is planning to roll out LED lighting and "optimise" the energy centre in Hampstead, to further cut down on emissions.
Meanwhile the Whittington Hospital is also devising a new sustainable development management plan. Its carbon emissions have reduced from 7,838 tonnes in 2017/2018 to 7,064t last year.
It has signed up for the NHS's single-use plastics reduction pledge, given out 350 Oyster cards to get community staff to use public transport, and its new electronic record system will hopefully save a million pieces of paper.
Meanwhile UCLH has been recognised for its bid to tackle emissions.
While being slightly smaller than the Royal Free with 1,000 fewer staff, it has been awarded the Carbon Trust standard for carbon, waste and water. However this newspaper was not able to get its latest carbon emissions totals.
George Gebski, who has been the trust's head of sustainability for almost a year, said UCLH was "proud" of its progress.
He said: "This means that the trust has made a successful reduction in carbon emissions year on year. As long as we keep reducing them, then we are staying on that standard."
He said UCLH is also trying to meet the NHS's 2020 target. It is also aiming to go plastic free in its cafes and canteens.
Mr Gebski added: "We're doing quite a number of things, and we have some quite challenging targets. We want to get rid of all plastic straws by next April. We want to follow that up by getting rid of all plastic cutlery and plastic cups by April 2021."
Mr Gebski is also trying to reduce the waste of clinical instruments. A packet of them will often contain several implements that will not be used, so are thrown away. A national group he is part of, which meets four times a year, is sharing ideas on how to get suppliers to cut down on excess packaging.
"We're trying to encourage suppliers to reduce the amount of packaging and move away from the use of single-use plastics for masks and move towards a more reusable type culture.
"We can always reduce our plastics but we have got to think of what we do. Infection control is the biggest barrier to some of these things. Plastic seems to be the best model for some of them. There is a lot of things that we can replace and it is one of the things we are doing."
Dr Toby Hillman, a respiratory consultant at UCLH says that hospitals need to look at changing the way they deliver healthcare.
He said: "We have got to change the way we deliver healthcare. It's estimated that 5 to 10pc of journeys in the UK are healthcare-related. Outpatient appointments have doubled in a decade. If you can reduce those by a third to telephone calls then you will reduce the impact."
The UCLH environment chief says he is also talking to junior staff who are keen to tackle the problem. He said: "Some of them are quite passionate about it. In some cases this is the only way we can do it."
