326/365/3248 (May 3, 2017) - Juvenile Squirrels and their Mom in Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan (May 3rd, 2017) by Corey Seeman

13 3

Squirrels in Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan. Taken on Wednesday May 3rd, 2017. With my aggravated sciatica in my left leg, I could not get very far. Luckily, I previously noticed these three juvenile squirrels learning their ways up and down the tree over by Lorch Hall. It was great to see all three together.

Men-an-Tol by Julian Hodgson

4 1

The Men-an-Tol holed stone, Bosullow, near Morvah, Cornwall. Believed to date from the early Bronze Age, its purpose is unknown, but research conducted in the 1990s revealed that the three main stones, together with four nearby standing and fallen stones, were components of a stone circle 17m across, probably containing 19 or 20 stones.

The Men-an-Tol is known locally as the Crick Stone, on account of its alleged healing properties. People suffering from rheumatism or sciatica would crawl nine times around the stones and, if thin enough, through the aperture. The number nine is held to be a number sacred to the moon, emphasising the link between lunar phases and pagan rituals. For centuries, children were made to pass nine times through the hole naked, as a treatment for rickets.

I'm usually fairly cynical about these mystical beliefs and practices, but in the case of the last one I have little doubt that it was an immensely effective treatment - but not because of any magical healing power of the stones. Rickets is a condition that affects bone development in children, often leading to bone pain, poor growth and soft, weak bones leading to deformities, particularly bow legs. It is caused by a deficiency of Vitamin D, which is generated naturally by the cholesterol in our skin when exposed to sunlight. As little as 10 - 30 minutes of exposure is all that is required for the body to generate enough Vitamin D.

Even centuries ago, I suspect that any caring parent taking their children up onto the moors to crawl naked through the Men-an-Tol would have waited for a warm and sunny day, and by the time the child had passed through the stone nine times they would probably have had more than enough exposure to the sun's rays to satisfy their Vitamin D requirements - and so protect them against rickets.

And before anyone asks, yes I have crawled through the stone, many times, but not this time.

Back Surgery by simonrumi

A few months ago I had some surgery to relieve some pretty severe sciatica pain.....immediately after the surgery there were a lot of medications involved and the recovery took a little while. (To be clear I'm not taking any medications now and I'm not addicted to anything)

After four months of being side-lined with Sciatica, I finally managed a visit to the line-side today, courtesy of my wife, Angela. From home in Bewdley and over the beautiful scenic views offered from Clee Hill, we managed to reach Ludlow before heading to Craven Arms.

THE LOTUS POSITION by DENNIS DELA CRUZ

12 19

The lotus position (Devanāgarī: पद्मासन; IAST: padmāsana; Japanese: kekka fuza (結跏趺坐, kekka fuza?)) is a cross-legged sitting posture which originated in representations and meditative practices of ancient India. It is an established part of the Hindu Yoga tradition. The position is said to resemble a lotus, encourage proper breathing and foster physical stability.

Famous depictions of the lotus-posture include Shiva, the meditating ascetic god of Hinduism, and Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of Buddhism. Padmasana may be depicted on an ancient seal found in Harappa.

According to the traditional texts Padmasana destroys all disease and awakens kundalini energy (one’s dormant spiritual energy). It calms the mind. It stimulates the pelvis, spine, abdomen, and bladder and stretches the ankles and knees. In women it alleviates menstrual discomfort and sciatica and helps ease childbirth.

Catching the ferry back to Keswick lakeside 080423 (7 of 7) by gerald murphy

One of the main aims of the trip was to reach and photograph Ashness Bridge before a relatively level walk back to Keswick. The other aim had been to see whether my recent improvement from years of sciatica would allow not just the planned six miles, but also the 428 metres of ascent stated in the guide. During the descent, however, I took two further wrong turns, one of which required a further lengthy uphill yomp. Back on track, about a mile before Ashness Bridge, I was in such pain that I abandoned the route and found a path down to the lakeside road and the ferry jetty in Barrow Bay, where I waited for a boat trip back to Keswick. By the time I got to the car, I had walked 8.9 miles and, probably, a total ascent of more than 500 metres. Someday, I intend to return to photograph Ashness Bridge – but I’ll drive there and it will be my first stop.

Hypericum androsaemum by The Gifted Photographer

20 56

(Please, while I appreciate the idea of sharing, no multiple invitations .. thanks!)

A member of the St John's Wort family, the name for these is Hypericum androsaemum

I didn't even expect them to burst into blossoms and it was surprising ...

Hypericum androsaemum, commonly known as tutsan, is a plant in the genus Hypericum native to open woods and hillsides in Eurasia. It is a perennial shrub reaching up to 1.5 m in height.

The common name tutsan appears to be a corruption of toute saine literally meaning all-healthy. This is probably in reference to its healing properties. The leaves are used applied to wounds, and as a stomachich. Nicholas Culpeper, in his 1653 publication Culpeper's Complete Herbal, says "Tutsan purgeth choleric humours ... both to cure sciatica and gout, and to heal burnings by fire." It will also stop bleeding and heal wounds and sores. Apparently it works just as well if it swallowed or used as a salve or ointment. The berries which turn from white/green, to red, to black are poisonous.

A Week in Tokyo 20160220 by Danny Choo

Another better-late-than-never A Week in Tokyo - these photos taken a few months ago though and I've only just managed to sit down to write the text for each photo ToT

First photo - on the way to work. Ever since my last sciatica attack, where possible I try to walk to and from work instead of taking the road bike or electric skateboard. My current commute is roughly a 20 - 25 min walk. Walking is the only time where I'm disconnected from the Internet and also gives me time to think - although I do stop from time to time to enter notes into Wunderlist.

As my company grows, I have more things I need to think about - the list starts with something like ( in no particular order)...

#Looking for new talent or vendors - how and where to find them.

#Vendor and quality management.

#New project initiatives.

#Product design and planning.

#Time and space optimization.

#Cash management.

#A load of other stuff which I can't think of right now ^^

#Staff management - we have a great team but I'm not going to kid you by telling you that all of my staff members are easy to manage - many of them come with baggage and are extremely challenging to deal with. Some of them are shite stirrers but talented super stars at the same time. Even though I'm the boss, I can't simply fire somebody just because they don't like me/I don't like them.

A close friend of mine runs his own company but fires anybody who he does not get on with - the result is that his business is struggling due to the lack of talent on his team.

Anybody thinking of starting up their own business simply can't expect to grow a company and have every single employee like you - it's like trying to get everybody to like tomatoes - some people like them - some people don't.

The challenge gets more challenging - the world consensus is that because you are the boss - you must be at fault and no matter what mood the employees are in - it must be because of your actions. If you are running a company you will know that this is of course complete bollocks.

Trying to create a comfortable working atmosphere which provides opportunities for employees to grow should be one of your top priorities - caring or trying to get all employees to like you should not be on your agenda at all. If you cared about what people think of you (regardless of whether they are employees or people you don't know) then you should not be trying to run a business at all because you will eventually fail. Caring too much about what people think of you will end up shaping your life - instead of you shaping your own.

This is also not to say that you should go around treating people like shite either. I treat my employees with respect and care for their working environment a great deal but am also realistic at the same time that some of them don't care whether I care about them or not - this is because they have their own agenda and or values.

If you are in the midst of starting up a company and are facing similar people issues - my advice is to stay strong even though your people can hurt you emotionally.

You will thank these people one day in helping build a stronger you and you are going to need to be stronger to face the even bigger issues in the future as your company grows.

Instead of spending your brain CPU on negative people, use your spare cycles to think about and process the more important things which drive you and the company forward.

And don't forget - one just does not simply fire somebody just because they don't like you!

Thank You Gabby by Jane Gregory

6 26

Hello Everyone!!

Sorry for not being around the last few weeks.

My Mother was due to have a new knee but she now has sciatica on her other leg so her knee operation was cancelled.

I've been staying with her to help out as she is struggling to walk and fend for herself.

She had an X- Ray and it shows mild arthitis in both hips which is a little swollen and pressing on the nerve.

She's now having physio to try to remove her sciatica so she can put weight back on her right leg. As soon as that happens she can then have her left knee replaced.

Anyway.......

Yes you don't often see photos of me on here!!!!

Greg took the photo and I wanted to share with you some gifts I received from my lovely Flickr contact Gabby.

I received such a HUGE parcel of goodies which were combined birthday and Christmas.

Yes I know it's all belated but Gabby's health has not been good for a while

With my aches & pains we relate to each other very well and have the understanding of poor health.

She is also a HUGE cat lover so say no more!

We always give each other inspiration to get through..

Gabby and I met on Flickr and we always send each other goodies through the post.

it's always lovely to receive a letter from a friend rather than an Email.

Call me old fashioned, but it's always a nice surprise to receive a nice letter amongst the gas and electicity bills!!!

Gabby sent me some sparkly make up for stage, the leopard print watch and scarf.

I'm wearing everything on here including the make up.

Thanks Gabby I love them!!!

Here's the link to Gabbys Photostream

www.flickr.com/photos/gabbcan/

Gabby sent some other goodies including new fairies which she knows I collect.

Gabby also sent something for the cats and for Greg.

I'll be posting photos of those later.

On this photo I've used a couple of textures from Shadow house creations

here's the link to their site-

shadowhousecreations.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Brushes

I have found that working on this photo I took longer than usual to air brush my skin!!! oh boy!!

That's because I'm getting more wrinkles AAAHHHH!!

My hair has also come out a bit red from my blending options on the textures but I kind of liked it so I left it as it was..

My hair colour is a bit orangy right now. Not sure I like it.

My hair dresser came over as I'm now going grey!!!

Another AAAHHHH!!!

I am naturally brown but he wanted to streak it a couple of shades lighter as he told me "AT MY AGE" to have it coloured dark sometimes looks a bit wrong as your skin colour changes as you get older!!! WHAT!! AAAHHHH!!!!

Luckily my hair dresser has a great sense of humour and we had a laugh about it.

He says it may be a "Blue rinse" for me next time! Oh HA HA very funny!

Seems like I'm on the downhill slide so good old photoshop has given me instant botox!!!

I'll catch up with you all soon

Have a good weekend

Chùm ruột, còn gọi là tầm ruột - Phyllanthus acidus, Phyllanthus distichus, Cicca disticha, Cicca acida Họ Phyllanthaceae by Duy Thuong Ngo 吳惟尚

11 5

Chùm ruột, còn gọi là tầm ruột (Phyllanthus acidus, Phyllanthus distichus, Cicca disticha, Cicca acida hay Averrhoa acida) là loài cây duy nhất có quả ăn được trong họ Phyllanthaceae. Cây chùm ruột vừa được trồng làm cây kiểng vừa lấy quả.

Chùm ruột phân bố chủ yếu ở miền nhiệt đới Á Châu từ Madagascar đến Ấn Độ sang tận Đông Nam Á. Ở Việt Nam, chùm ruột trồng phổ biến ở miền Nam.

Miêu tả

Chùm ruột là loại cây thân mộc, cỡ nhỏ, gần giống cây bụi, gỗ chùm ruột rất giòn nên dễ gãy . Cây đạt chiều cao từ 2 đến 9 m. Tán cây rậm rạp, thân cây có nhiều cành chính cứng và dày. Nhánh cây sần sùi vì vết sẹo của những cuống lá cũ. Ở cuối mỗi cành chính có nhiều cành nhỏ màu xanh, dài từ 15 đến 30 cm, mọc thành chùm dày đặc.

Lá chùm ruột mọc so le, hình trứng dài với kích thước khoảng 4-5 cm, rộng khoảng 1,5-2 cm.

Hoa chùm ruột sắc hồng, nở từng chùm. Trái hình tròn, chia thành 6 múi, sắc xanh lục ngả vàng với đường kính khoảng 1,5-2 cm. Trái chùm ruột giòn và có vị rất chua, do đó thường được tiêu thụ dưới dạng mứt tại Việt Nam. Mỗi quả chỉ có 1 hột.

Lá non chùm ruột có khi được ăn như một loại rau sống.

Phyllanthus acidus, known as the Otaheite gooseberry, Malay gooseberry, Tahitian gooseberry, country gooseberry, star gooseberry, West India gooseberry, simply gooseberry tree, is one of the trees with edible small yellow berries fruit in the Phyllanthaceae family. Despite its name, the plant does not resemble the gooseberry, except for the acidity of its fruits. It is mostly cultivated for ornamentation.

Description

The plant is a an intermediary between shrubs and tree, reaching 2 to 9 m (6½ to 30 ft) high.[2] The tree's dense and bushy crown is composed of thickish, tough main branches, at the end of which are clusters of deciduous, greenish, 15-to-30-cm long branchlets. The branchlets bear alternate leaves that are ovate or lanceolate in form, with short petioles and pointed ends. The leaves are 2-7.5 cm long and thin, they are green and smooth on the upperside and blue-green on the underside. In general, the Otaheite gooseberry tree very much looks like the bilimbi tree.

The flowers can be male, female or hermaphrodite.[2] They are small and pinkish and appear in clusters in 5-to-12.5-cm long panicles. Flowers are formed at leafless parts of the main branches, at the upper part of the tree. The fruits are numerous, oblate, with 6 to 8 ribs, and densely clustered. They are pale yellow or white, waxy, crisp and juicy, and very sour. 4 to 6 seeds are contained in a stone at the center of each fruit.[2][3]

Origin and distribution

This tropical or subtropical species is found throughout Asia and also has a home in the Caribbean region, Central and South America.[4]

While its origin is uncertain, the species may have initially sprouted in Madagascar.[2][3][4] It was found in other parts of South Asia early; according to Eduardo Quisumbing, it was brought to the Philippines in prehistoric times.[2] It spread across the Indian Ocean to Réunion and Mauritius and crossed the Pacific to Hawaii.[2][3] It expanded to the Caribbean in 1793, when William Bligh carried the plant from Timor to Jamaica.[3]

The tree is common in Guam, Indonesia (where it is called ceremai or cerama), South Vietnam (called chùm ruột), Laos, northern Malaya (called cerme and chermai), and India (called chalmeri and harpharoi).[2][4] It is still found in the Philippines (called iba in Tagalog and karmay in Ilokano), if not widely, and in Cambodia (called kantuet) and Thailand (called mayom). In the United States, it is found in Hawaii and occasionally the southern parts of Florida.[2] It is seen in Ecuador, El Salvador, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Surinam, Peru and Brazil.

Cultivation and human use

The Otaheite gooseberry prefers moist soil.[2] It can be cultivated in a variety of ways—budding, cutting and air-layering—in addition to the usual seed growth. The tree is cultivated for its ornamental value,[5] but also for food and medicinal purposes. While it produces some fruit throughout the year, it is mainly harvested in January except in South India, where it bears crops in April-May and again in August-September.[2] As the fruit does not soften when ripe, it is harvested when the fruit begins to drop.[6]

Various parts of the plant are used for food. In India and Indonesia, the cooked leaves are eaten.[3] While the fruit is eaten fresh, and is sometimes used as flavoring for other dishes in Indonesia, it is generally regarded as too tart to eat by itself in its natural form and is processed further.[3][4] It is candied in sugar or pickled in salt, used in chutney, relish or preserves. It is used to make vinegar in the Philippines and syrup in Malaysia. Liberally sugared, it is also used to make fruit juice. In Thailand it is used as an ingredient to make Som tam.

The plant is also used medicinally. The peppered leaves are used to make a poultice to treat sciatica, lumbago and rheumatism, while the seeds are used as a cathartic and the root as a purgative.[4][7] The syrup is used to medicate the stomach, and in India the fruit is eaten as a blood-enhancer for the liver.[4]

While the wood is strong and durable if properly treated, the tree is rarely harvested for wood.[4] In India, the root bark is sometimes used for tanning.

162/365/2718 (November 20, 2015) - Autumn Squirrels at the University of Michigan (November 20, 2015) by Corey Seeman

Squirrels (including some quite ready for winter) at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on a beautiful autumn day - Friday November 20, 2015. My doctor told me to get out for a few walks during the day to get my sciatica healed….what's a guy to do!

My Boy by Bigbird3

I realised the most of Kaiser's photos are of a comedic nature so here is a straightforward portrait of my big boy.

My camera has been mended and I am off to collect it today.

My aches and pains are getting slightly better, though the doctor did intimate that a hip replacement may be around the corner. Apparently I have severe arthritis in my right hip and this is what is probably causing most of the pain, that and the sciatica. My shoulder is progressing nicely and I can now do my hair without having to bring my head down to my knees (whilst sitting down I hasten to add). I can also reach up to certain shelves at home, and pull the car door shut with my right arm - all these little things bring great progress in my life.

I have new medication that makes me feel less sleepy so who knows I may even get a walk in this weekend.

Happy Furry Friday everyone

Wishing you a fit and pain free weekend

Tutsan - Hypericum androsaemum by SAMARA:

12 4

Tutsan's leaves are oval, hairless, about 10-15cm long with tiny little translucent dots. The fruit is berry-like, beginning with a reddish colour which becomes purplish-black later in the autumn and is eaten and spread by birds. This widespread plant grows in deciduous wood, thickets and limestone pavements. It is a native plant belonging to the family Hypericaceae.

The name 'Tutsan' is thought to have come from the French 'toute saine' meaning 'all healthy' - referring to its undoubted antiseptic properties.

16th century herbalist, Nicholas Culpeper wrote: 'It is a herb of Saturn and a most noble antivenereal. Tutsan purgeth choleric humours .. for therein it worketh the same effects, both to cure sciatica and gout and to heal burnings by fire'

Wild Crocus at Hole Park by Geoff Stephens

313 | 365 | Ride by David Sullivan

I LOVE my chiropractor! When I woke up this morning, it was as if the sciatica never happened!

My office is 7.5 miles from my house. I've been meaning to ride my bike to work occasionally, but I wanted to do a test ride first.

I wanted to see how long it would take me to get there. And, I wanted to see how difficult the right back would be. The elevation where I live is more than 400 feet higher than where I work. So, the ride to work is downhill... and that's fun! The ride home is uphill. It's not as much fun.

It took me 35 minutes to get to my office. It took me 50 minutes to get back home. And, there were only two steep hills that caused me to get off my bike and walk it a few hundred feet. I'll conquer them one of these days.

The steepest hill was my driveway. I conquered that one.

One Cloud Ruined My Sunset by itsallgoodamanda

I had high hopes for a red sky as I headed out last night even though my body was screaming in pain I could barely move my arm and of course my sciatica decided to kick in on top of it all, but off I went determined not to let it stop me from living. This is what I saw as I set up shop on the banks. Disappointed I waited and paced the one big cloud stuffed it all up, as the sun set it slowly burned off but there was barely any colour in it.

The Wild, Elusive Arctic Hare by Zircon_215

45 18

This is the mammal that I've been searching for recently on the Annieopsquotch Mountains. I don't really know why. I'm not going to get any better photographs than the four hundred or so I already have of this one. In fact, that's the case for a lot of the animals and birds I've shot over the years ... eagles, loons, seals, foxes, to name just a few. I see an eagle now, for example, and I barely give it a second glance ... been there, done that. In a way, having accomplished something you've set as a goal, is what what makes it difficult to keep photography fresh and interesting.

Still, this litte beastie is so damn elusive I'd like to get another crack at it. A Newfoundland government website states "Few Newfoundlanders have ever seen this rare mammal". I've seen it a grand total of three times ... once, in the springtime with a bunch of young when I didn't even have a camera ... another time I came upon one in a dense fog in the summertime ... again without a camera ... and this one. So, I suppose that's not bad. With this little creature, though, as with the Kingfisher I spent three weeks stalking last fall ... with one of the worse cases of sciatica you can imagine ... I guess it's more about the chase than the photographic capture. The photograph just becomes a record of what you've accomplished ... a bright, shining aid to a memory of days that would blur into one without it.

Main Cause of Sciatica Pain by Karl Chichester

Sciatica pain is very common with people who have back pain caused from a bulging disc or pinched nerve. According to Spine Universe, there are five sets of nerve roots in the lower back. When one of those nerve roots is compressed, a sciatica pain is experienced. Typically, the pain radiates

I had a tiny little bit of sciatica yesterday, which made driving difficult / dangerous. I had my chauffeur drive me to work yesterday and made arrangements to work at home today. I visited my chiropractor yesterday afternoon. He straightened things out, but there was a lot of residual pain today. Kasey offered her support throughout.

"Something in your eyes makes me want to lose myself

Makes me want to lose myself in your arms

There's something in your voice makes my heart beat fast

Hope this feeling lasts the rest of my life

Feels like home to me

Feels like I'm all the way back where I come from

Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong"

Feels Like Home - Linda Ronstadt

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy22lxsjimU

There is quite a bit of story behind this song. It was written by Randy Newman for his musical "Faust" released in 1993. Although Linda appeared on the studio recording of Faust, it was Bonnie Raitt that performed this song.

Linda recorded it in 1994 with Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton for their second Trio album. That album got shelved because the three couldn't coordinate their schedules to promote it.

Linda took a handful of the songs a they recorded for that album and added a handful more to compile an album (also called "Feels Like Home") that she released in 1995. (Dolly's vocals were removed from the trio recordings and replaced with Valerie Carter's vocals. Probably because Dolly's management or record company didn't want Dolly's vocals so prominently included on Linda's solo album. It's also speculated that Dolly and Linda were fighting at the time.)

It Hurts THERE

To add to my list of "reasons not to get pregnant" : back pain. The hardest medical problem to treat, and now I got it too. I probably shouldn't have been reorganizing the garage this weekend, huh?

Doe Lake, Katrine, Parry Sound District, Ontario, Canada, August, 2010 by Bill Barber

5 25

Just got back from vacationing at Doe Lake. That's why I've not been up on flickr. I'll be around to see you over the next few days. I'm also wrestling with a bit of sciatica, so I can only sit for a bit at a time.

While visiting the town of Burk 's Falls, which is a few miles north of the cottage, I was struck by the lamppost banners.

When Canadian soldiers are killed in action, as they have been in Afghanistan and other hot spots, the remains are flown back to Canadian Air Force Base Trenton, Ontario. From there, they travel almost 100 miles to Toronto for post mortem. The stretch of Highway 401 along which they travel is known as the Highway of Heroes.

There are at least fifty bridges along the route, and each is packed with Canadians of all stripes. Local policemen, firemen, paramedics, legionnaires, scouts, guides, etc. salute as the hearses pass beneath. It is an overpowering experience. Flags everwhere.

Here are some links that portray the mood and scene:
