When Eric Toensmeier and Jonathan Bates moved into a duplex in a run-down part of Holyoke, Massachusetts, the tenth-of-an-acre lot was barren ground and bad soil, peppered with broken pieces of concrete, asphalt, and brick. The two friends got to work designing what would become not just another urban farm, but a "permaculture paradise" replete with perennial broccoli, paw paws, bananas, and moringa—all told, more than two hundred low-maintenance edible plants in an innovative food forest on a small city lot. The garden—intended to function like a natural ecosystem with the plants themselves providing most of the garden's needs for fertility, pest control, and weed suppression—also features an edible water garden, a year-round unheated greenhouse, tropical crops, urban poultry, and even silkworms. In telling the story of Paradise Lot, Toensmeier explains the principles and practices of permaculture, the choice of exotic and unusual food plants, the techniques of design and cultivation, and, of course, the adventures, mistakes, and do-overs in the process. Packed full of detailed, useful information about designing a highly productive permaculture garden, Paradise Lot is also a funny and charming story of two single guys, both plant nerds, with a wild plan: to realize the garden of their dreams and meet women to share it with. Amazingly, on both counts, they succeed. http://www.perennialsolutions.org

 

With almost 7 billion people on the planet, we're bound to run into communication problems sometime. And though we know healthy relationships and a sense of community are essential for a healthy, happy, and successful life, some of us are not equipped or quite prepared to deal with the situations and the life transitions we sometimes face. Cue Cards for Life is a handy, intuitive "how to" guide that can be easily applied in real life situations. In her private practice as a psychotherapist, Christina Steinorth noticed that many of her patients came in with the same communication problems. Couples would neglect their love relationships, parents would talk at their teens instead of talking to them, and adults found few guidelines for interacting well with their aging parents. In fact, most people seemed to put more thought into deciding what to have for dinner than they did in choosing what they said and how they behaved in important situations. As a result, something seemed to go wrong -- but they were unsure of exactly what. Steinorth made Cue Cards for her patients to help them with these recurring problems.

 

Did you know that every time your little superheroes and fairy princesses feast on brightly colored Halloween treats, they might be filling up on the products of Chinese petrochemical factories? “Many parents would be horrified to learn that most of the synthetic food dyes used to make candies so colorful and appealing to kids are petroleum byproducts imported from China,” said Jane Hersey, National Director of the Feingold Association (www.ADHDdiet.org ), a charity that helps children with learning and behavior problems. “Parents have often assumed that the hyperactivity, temper tantrums, and other behavior problems that many children have after eating Halloween candy are caused by sugar, but recent studies have revealed that these behaviors are often triggered by synthetic dyes, flavorings or preservatives in the candy,” said Hersey, whose eldest daughter’s behavior was helped by removing these additives from her diet. The negative effects of synthetic food dyes on children’s behavior have been known since the 1970’s, when Dr. Ben Feingold discovered this link and developed the low-additive Feingold Diet. Since then, an increasing body of research has established that the synthetic food dyes widely used today are far from harmless and can affect children’s behavior in profound ways.

 

Angela Johnston will be on today my co-author of Pedicure to talk about our book. Nine women author's 50-60 years old, not writers, until they embarked on a journey of self-discovery after revealing secrets to one another, 'take to your grave secrets'! The unbelievable stories run the gamut from horrific to bizarre. They live all over the U.S. and are from diverse backgrounds and education. The book details all their experiences, real names, nothing is held back. However, the journey continues for some, others not. Learn redemption and forgiveness through their eyes.

Award-winning, veteran Washington Post reporter Margaret Webb Pressler's husband Jim is one of those people who looks much younger than he is. After years of fielding questions about why Jim seems not to age, Pressler decided to find the answer. Her research into the work of some of the world's leading experts on aging and genetics reveal a new world of discoveries and advice about how the aging process works and what you can do to age less, feel better, and look younger. Virtually everything she uncovered dovetailed with habits that her husband had already established for himself. But beyond that, she found a tremendous amount of new research about how and why we age, the anti-aging properties of various foods, and the youth-retaining effects of certain behaviors. Cheat the Clock uses Jim Pressler as a jumping-off point to explain how the aging process begins at the cellular level and offers concrete advice that anyone can use to slow down aging. It turns out the proverbial "good genes" don't play as large a role as the experts once thought. That makes Jim's experience worth sharing; he is living proof that by making the right small changes in diet and lifestyle, and by following the science, anyone can make a big difference in how young they look and feel over many years.

I'm impressed, I have to say. Certainly rarely do I encounter a weblog that is both educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you've hit the nail on the head. Your concept is outstanding; the problem is some thing that not sufficient people today are speaking intelligently about. I am pretty happy that I stumbled across this in my search for some thing relating to this.
