Made with pure Organic Jojoba Oil and Essential Oils. A soft and delicate Body Oil - Jojoba is a deep penetrating oil-free moisturizer that leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth without feeling greasy. Jojoba is virtually identical to sebum (the skins natural restorative fluid that protects hair and skin from becoming dry and brittle), which our body loses due to age, sun, wind, cold, and our environment. Jojoba is reputed to be a natural wrinkle remover, and absorbs quickly into dry skin. It is effective in the treatment of acne, and is the most easily absorbed vegetable oil by the body. Your skin will reap the benefits of Organic Jojoba, and will be left feeling smooth, supple, and youthful.

it's been a few months since i've been to the Peterborough market, so when Erin's boyfriend visited this weekend with the car, we took a visit.

 

i'm so excited about the feta! and i normally don't buy anything from the deli, but the buckwheat sausage that was on sale caught my eye.

"Each year one in three adults age 65 and older falls and roughly 55 percent of those falls occur inside the home.

 

Falls have devastating consequences for older adults; fall-related injuries have been the leading cause of injury deaths among older adults and in 2010, 2.3 million nonfatal fall injuries among older adults were treated in emergency departments.

 

These injuries can make it hard to get around or live independently, and increase the risk of early death. Many people who fall, even if they are not injured, develop a fear of falling. This fear may cause them to limit their activities, which leads to reduced mobility and loss of physical fitness, and in turn increases their actual risk of falling.

 

Fortunately, falls are a public health problem that is largely preventable. Simple and inexpensive modifications to the home are the best way to prevent falls.

 

Area 10 Agency on Aging’s REPAIRS Team is a volunteer group that is working in seniors’ homes in Monroe and Owen counties. The REPAIRS Team is Reliable Experts Providing Accessibility, Independence, Rehabilitation, and Safety. Their mission is to help ensure the independence of the elderly and persons with disabilities by providing the essential maintenance and construction necessary for them to remain safely in their homes. They do many types of jobs from replacing batteries in smoke detectors all the way to designing and building ADA code wheelchair ramps. The team responded to 149 requests in 2012 and donated more than 700 hours of service!

 

In this photo from July 17, 2013, members of the team are fixing a woman’s wheelchair ramp that was falling to pieces. This fantastic volunteer team donates their time and labor and provides information on the cost of materials prior to making repairs. It is the resident’s responsibility to pay for materials through their own means or grants or loans that are available through Area 10 or other organizations. This program is supported by United Way funding."

PP in Lightroom/CS3. I didn't really like the unlit background in the original (a white wrinkled background), so I thought this was a good image to practice a technique I learned from Zack Arias for cleaning up backgrounds to white. I also liked Briana's expression and pose, and I wanted an off-center composition.

To get the greatest benefits from essential oils it is very important to use them appropriately. They are very strong plant extracts and extremely toxic if ingested. Do not take internally unless recommended by a qualified aromatherapist or health practitioner.

 

It is recommended to dilute essential oils in a carrier oil (vegetable or nut seed oil) before applying to the skin.

A ratio of 1-5% essential oil in a carrier oil or cosmetic base is recommended depending on the oils used and the application. 1ml = approx 25 drops

 

Keep bottles in a cool dark place and keep out of reach of children.

 

Some people may have sensitivities to some oils, if irritation occurs wipe the area with vegetable oil. Do not use water as oils are not soluble in water and it can make things worse. If poisoning occurs seek medical advice immediatly.

 

Some essential oils are not to be used during pregnancy. Contra-indications include; aniseed, basil, cedarwood, celery seed, cinnamon leaf, citronella, clary sage, clove, cumin, eucalyptus, sweet fennel, juniper, lovage, mandarin, marjoram, myrrh, nutmeg, parsley, pennyroyal, rosewood, Spanish sage, tarragon and white thyme. However, they are all perfectly safe to use as culinary herbs during pregnancy. For further information please seek the advice of a qualified aromatherapist or health practitioner.

 

Some citrus oils increase photosensetivity in the skin and may cause reactions if worn in the sun, Oils to avoid when in direct sunshine include bergamot, petitgrain, lemon, lime, orange and grapefruit.

This infographic presents an easy guide to read guide to men’s dress shoes.

 

To complete a formal look, dress shoes are essential. To wear a suit and tie with any old shoes is to do a disservice by lessening the stylishness and impact of the look. Our guide will help you to understand which types of shoes will emphasise, rather than downplay, your style.

 

Formal Boots

While you might not realise it, you can pair your suit with a pair of boots. Three different styles of boot are appropriate for formal dress

 

The Styles

 

•Dress Boots

Very similar to an oxford, the only difference is a higher ankle. Historically, they were a work boot, but over the course of the last century, the role has reversed.

 

Features: this style of boot requires a winged or capped toe. These are types of perforation around the toe.

 

Occasion: Dress boots are suitable for formal eveningwear or business meetings.

 

•Chelsea Boots

A boot that dates to the Victorian era, they made popular by the Chelsea boys of the 1960s.

 

Features: elasticated strip at the ankles and a plain toe – no laces.

 

Occasion: because of the lack of laces, this is a semi-formal choice of boot suiting semi-casual events, such as a day at the races.

 

•Chukka Boots

This is a relatively rare style of shoe with an interesting history. Back in the day, they were a type of post-sport shoe worn by polo players. Polo is a sport of the upper classes, and as such, this shoe is relatively upmarket, although it has casual feel.

 

Features: a plain toe and three-eyelet lacing, it has a relatively loose fit, lending to the air of casualness.

 

Occasion: these boots are suitable for business casual, parties, and semi-formal events.

 

Formal Shoes

Shoes tend to be the footwear of choice when wearing a suit, and as you can imagine, there is slightly more choice here.

 

The Styles

 

•The Oxford

Named after the prestigious university, you can be sure that this is one of the most popular styles of formal footwear for men.

 

Features: a little complicated here, because with this style of men formal shoes, you can choose from a range of toes, including plain, capped toe, and wingtips. Oxfords have laces attached to two tabs (one on each side).

 

Occasion: Oxfords are suitable for formal events – both business and entertainment, as well as dates.

 

•The Derby

This style is similar to an Oxford but less formal. The top of the shoe has a larger opening than the Oxford and the toe is slightly more bulbous.

 

Features: similar to the Oxford, they have the two tabs and lacing. However, the tabs form part of the upper shoe that wraps around the ankle. With Oxfords, the tabs are an addition sewn to the shoe. For the toes, you can choose between wingtips, plain toes, and capped toes.

 

Occasion: slightly less formal than the Oxford, the Derby is suitable for semi-casual and casual situations.

 

•The Loafer

Loafers are a recent addition to the dress shoe collective, appearing in the formal sections of footwear shops from the 1960s onwards.

 

Features: this is a slip on shoe, so a good choice of men's comfort shoes. There’s often a decorative feature where the laces should be. These features may be tassels, pennies, or bits.

 

Occasion: because they are a comfort shoe, they suit casual/semi-formal environments.

 

•The Monk Strap

A stylish and relatively rare style, these are great for those of you with a keen sense of fashion.

 

Features: Rather than laces, you will find a strap and buckle – either a single or a double buckle.

 

Occasion: perfect for many occasions, including work, the theatre, and dinner dates.
