5. Gun point

Enjoy…

oOo

The cockpit of One was eerily silent, the spirited ship sat dormant, still and seemingly lifeless as Scott slumped further into his chair. His mussed head resting on one closed fist, uniform surprisingly rumpled and unkempt for someone who prided himself on an orderly appearance. Something that had been drilled into him during his time in the service...just like Dad.

Well.. almost like Dad.

Today he was the furthest thing from what his father had been and Scott didn’t know how he could reconcile the obvious differences now.

It had all gone just so horribly wrong and Scott found himself reduced to the child he had been all those years ago on that bitterly cold, too bright white day. Surrounded by too many unknowns and petrified of what was going to happen next.

His tongue darted out and swept over too dry, chapped lips as he drew in a shaky breath that made his chest ache.

He noted with uncaring eyes that the strap of his baldric was digging into his hip and in turn it pulled the securing belt that wrap about his thigh up into places it just wasn’t meant to go. He didn’t have the energy to care and he sat wishing it hurt more.

The numbness as it restricted his circulation sent tingling waves down the limb and the pain did little to distracted him from the wellspring of uncertainty that had taken up residence behind his breast bone.

Bone tired, he shifted his gritty eyes to what lay heavily in his lap. Watched vacantly as the rough pad of his thumb brushed back and forth over blackened steel. The cold, deadly weight pinning him to seat of a craft that stood for life.

Time ticked by.

The click of his comms coming to life had a small spark of something returning to deep blue of his gaze. A glimmer of hope that was quickly quashed

“Scott?” The almost regal intonation of his space-borne brother whispered quietly though the still confines. There was an edge of exhaustion to the sigh that followed and an uneasiness that Scott had a hard time hearing though John’s normal reticence.

Azure, rimmed and flecked with Prussian blue scrutinized the control panel. Audio only.

Scott pinched the bridge of his nose and forced composure even though he wanted..needed..to scream.

He flicked his comm open, “...John.”

“What’s your ETA?” Those were the words that transmitted but Scott heard what they really were saying. We need you

Another in-drawn breath, lungs inflating even with the vice of mourning clamped around them. He didn’t have an answer, he didn’t know it himself so he answered with a question of his own. “Were they able to confirm.”

The line was silent but Scott knew John was still there, mulling over his answer. The lengthening silence not what he wanted to hear.

His lungs seized and he shoved a fist in his mouth to physically hold back a sob.

Eyes squeezed tight, the scream in his head grew louder.

“The intel was accurate...IDB* has confirmed.”

“..and…?”

“Scott, please. Come back.”

“John!” His voice kicked up an octave, panic causing it to crack. A moment to collect himself, he tried again. “John, just tell me.”

“It’s a genetically altered form of bacterial meningitis. Spinal tap confirmed it with the modified testing procedures that was included in the intel.” John took a moment, the sound of shuffling could be heard over the line followed by the soft sound of a door closing. The gentle sound of beeping grew in volume as John moved and settled down somewhere.

“Secure?” Scott inquired.

“10-4, just needed to get some privacy. Grandma is a mess and doesn’t need to hear this.” A long inhalation before he continued “IDB has never seen anything like it before. The bacteria has been masked on a genetic level so normal methods of testing wont turn anything up. It’s immune to temperature variations, coded to be transmitted only by a specific means but can be altered easily for respiratory dispersal .. and its potent.. Completely off the charts.”

“...go on….” Scott urged when John fell silent again.

“It’s a superbug, Scott. The likes of which have never been seen.”

Scott bolted up.. “Alan?!”

“He’s fine, Scott. Still in isolation but the tap was clean. Gordon and Kayo were checked as well to be safe, they’re both in the clear. Virgil was the only one affected and has been quarantined.”

“So, can it be stopped?”

“IDB has been trying but the bug is showing no sign of letting up. It appears to be immune to antibiotics.. Scott.. “ John’s voice quivered. “They’re working on it but they don’t think they will have time to manufacture a cure. He’s in organ failure.”

Scott flicked the comms off and let the scream that he’d been holding back out with a howl of frustration, fear, anger. A litany of curses followed and he kicked angrily at a jump seat. Pain ricocheting up his leg as the cahelium alloy bit back at the abuse.

His legs gave out under him and he crumpled to the decking, knees drawn up to his chest. He pushed the heels of his palms into his face, trying to block out reality to no avail. The cold, forgotten steel unyielding as it pressed against his brow.

Over the noise in his head, he heard John calling his name but he made no move to open the channel back up. He just couldn’t right now. He needed space to think, to breathe and somehow put himself back together again.

Dropping his hands to his knees, he leaned back against a bulkhead. The gun dangled in his limp fingers, the safety off but the chamber was empty.

With his thumb, he flipped the lock on and off again a couple times and his eyes strayed to his bruised and battered knuckles. The skin was split in places, blooded. Clenching his left, he winced at the throb. Fractured, among everything else.

Some of the blood was his own but most of it was not and he knew he was going to have to answer for it. That the answer would mean the end of a dream.

Staring out the view port at the approaching lights of the GDF ground crew he knew that time was running out and there was nothing he could do.

He’d pay the heavy price for the intel he’d collected. The man he’d left broken and close to death would hopefully rot for the rest of his life on the Enceladus penal colony if Scott had anything to say about it. That’s if the piece of shit lived.

Scott had known that good for nothing, bastard CEO was a piece of garbage the minute he’d laid eyes on him and he sneered as he remembered the feeling of his fist hitting the fucker’s face.

He hadn’t counted on the gun. Hadn’t even looked for one as he’d pummeled the chemical manufacturer’s top man but there it was. It was a moment of pure impulse and anger that had the gun easily in his own hand, the barrel pressed up tight under the whimpering man’s jaw, safety off, hammer cocked.

It would be so simple to just squeeze the trigger. End the life of the monster who cared little for anyone or anything except the amount in his off planet bank account. The account that the stupid, pissing man had thought no one would find.

Well, iR wasn’t just anyone. They had an unlicensed, unregistered A.I in their back pocket and she’d had little difficulty finding the digital trail and aiming Scott right to his mark.

John would be livid when he found out that Scott had by-passed him and gone to his daughter but Scott had had little choice in the matter and the A.I had been eager to assist.

Eos was many things but lazy was not one of them. She’d done a deep dive into the GDF’s system and knew everything within seconds. From the man’s social insurance number to the affair he was having with his spouse’s sister, to the bout of gonorrhea he was secretly getting treated under the guise of ‘business meetings’. She’d found it all, even his safe house.

A quick, jump across the Pacific to a backwoods cabin in the Canadian Rockies was the work of a moment and he hadn't thought twice about going against the GDF’s direct orders to leave it to them.

What he’d learned after infiltrating and the asshole was pinned to the wall, made his blood run cold and the gun had burned in his hand.

20 Top Travel Medical Tips ... From Experience

Here are the top medical tourist pointers:

1. Get a flu shot. The worst flu I ever had sought a transatlantic flight.

2. Don't pet roaming animals-- they are sweet and Instagram gold, however, they likewise carry ringworm. Taken place to me in Italy.

Be careful of packs of canines. I had to leap on the back of a truck death by to get away a pet fight between packs on Kadavu in Fiji.

4. If you are bitten by a dog (exact same incident) on Fiji you need not fear rabies-- they don't have it. Get it cleaned and be pleased your tetanus vaccine is up to date.

You don't desire to add to the danger of getting one in a country that might have substandard medical care. I keep in mind looking for a pharmacy to offer sterile needles at midnight in the old Soviet Union to take to the hospital for a shot.

If stung by a stingray in Belize (have somebody pee on it) and do not step on live coral when running out of the ocean. You will understand if it is taking place the next day.

If you can't drink the water ...

7. Close your eyes and mouth in the shower. Obvious, but not instinctive.

8. Consume great deals of yogurts. No raw veggies, or unpeeled fruits-- no matter how they inform you they are cleaned.

9. Chew a Pepto Bismol tablet daily. Possibly a placebo but works for me.

Pollution

10. Take antibiotic eye drops if taking a trip to contaminated nations. Within 4 hours of landing in Beijing on an extremely contaminated day, my eye was infected. 11. Many travelers are wearing masks, like the residents, in polluted cities. I simply have actually not been able to do this.

To Purell or not to Purell?

12. Cash is the dirtiest thing you will touch. ALWAYS clean your hands or use hand sanitizers after moving.

13. You have actually heard. However it bears duplicating, the tray on the plane and remote in your hotel room or cabin are unclean.

14. Clean your phone/ phone case typically. It is most likely dirtier than cash.

When cruising:

15. Usage hand sanitizer anywhere offered on the ship, and it will be readily available all over.

16. Fist pumps over handshakes are now (wisely) becoming standard, even on the leading 5 starships.

17. Fernet Branca remedies sea sickness-- or was that Captain merely attempting to get me drunk?

Summary

18. Make confident you have evacuation insurance if taking a trip to less industrialized regions. You want to have the ability to get back if you are seriously hurt or extremely ill.

If all else stops working and your individual medical kit (next post) is not working, go to a local drug store. There is a "magic" shot they give in Egypt that I fear to endorse, however, gets me back up and going every time.

20. Most of all, have fun and enjoy your journeys. My resistance level, worldwide, must be extremely high now. For all my adventures, to the ends of the earth, this list is pretty petty. I also promise that what will be right around the next corner ... will be worth it. What are your leading tips?

Africa, Anaconda, and Bailey Jay: Outgoing, social, affectionate & very sweet. A sterling resume, a wonderful family pet Id 52882, 4 Yrs. 52 lbs. of Love, Spayed & Waiting for YOU, Manhattan ACC TO BE KILLED - 2/26/2019 Africa so adorable and she needs our help finding the right home <3 AFRICA’s intake photo doesn’t do her justice so we tried to get a screen capture off her adorable video with friend Don Draper. She’s incredibly beautiful, with a glossy, gleaming ebony coat and sparkling eyes. She looks to us to be a Labrador mix, and when she walks around in play yard, she literally prances like a pony, which caused us to burst out laughing. Outgoing, friendly, and very sweet, she is understandably a bit tense at the shelter with all the new people she is meeting. Her life, until now, was spent with her 2 parents, though they claimed she was found as a stray. We question every “stray” story we hear, here, at MLD, especially when a dog as magnificent as Africa is dropped off with glowing notes, a perfect and sterling resume of skills (housebroken, knows many commands, never guards her stuff, and likes to sleep in her dog bed). But whatever the reason for not wanting to care for this precious girl anymore, we would like to see her out of the shelter and into a home today. Please hurry and MESSAGE our page or email us at [email protected] if you can foster or beautiful Africa and give her back her life. A volunteer writes: Africa's soulful eyes look deep into your heart and ask only one question: Will you love me? She's a sweet velveteen beauty, shy at first but smart enough to know that hanging out with people means petting and treats and brave enough to approach whenever someone extends a hand in friendship. She always comes running when you call her, sits very politely for treats and was taught commands for stay and shake paw too. Toys are chased and then happily shared and in a home environment I bet she'll blossom into the same playful, highly active dog her former owner described. Africa greets other pups politely on leash or off, has lived with a small dog and is friendly toward her same size peers but mostly prefers nuzzling with human friends to roughhousing with the playgroup. Her favorite kind of petting is side rubs and if you appreciate a good 'leaner' as much as I do then she's definitely the gal for you! Africa is beautiful inside and out, a good girl ready to go home and enjoy some well-deserved TLC from a family as gentle and affectionate as she is. Will you be the one to love her forever? MY VIDEOS: Africa and Don Draper https://youtu.be/wCCWC3J5NXE Africa shows off her soft side <3 https://youtu.be/ktV1CiREjt0 AFRICA, ID # 52882, 4 Yrs. Old, 52.8 lbs.

While your dog is sick, he or she may not want to eat because of the nasal discharge that makes it hard for him or her to smell the food. You can tempt your dog to eat with peanut butter, boiled chicken, plain ground hamburger, chicken broth on his or her regular food or other delicious items. Please seek veterinary care if your pet: a) is not â€œturning the cornerâ€ and starting to get better within 5 days b) is still sick and coughing in 2 weeks c) is extremely sick, weak, or not eating at any point and you are concerned 29-Jan-2019 Progress Exam Patient is still highly anxious, agitated and vocalising in kennel.

How to Treat Your Dog’s Ear Infection at Home

https://www.centralparkpaws.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/what-does-an-infected-dog-ear-look-like-how-to-identify-infection.jpg As you all know, I’m a big supporter of consulting the vet when my dogs are sick or hurt, but that’s not always a possibility.

Recently, we were out camping in the woods when Ajax started shaking his head and scratching at his ears. Even though we’re consistent about cleaning his ears weekly, he still gets the occasional ear infection, especially after swimming.

One look and I was sure he had an ear infection. His ears were red, swollen, and smelled horrible.

We knew right away how it had happened: Ajax was in and out of the lake all day, so we hadn’t bothered to dry his ears until the evening.

Unfortunately, we were a good hour away from the closest vet office. Plus, it was a Saturday.

Luckily, we had dealt with ear infections before and came well prepared.

First, we cleaned and dried out his ears then treated them with Mometamax otic, a prescription ointment from our vet.

This whole thing got me thinking, what if you didn’t have medicine from your vet and were too far from a vet clinic to get any?

There are many reasons why getting to a vet office can be difficult and sometimes impossible, which means you may need to take care of your beloved canine on your own.

How to Tell If Your Dog Has an Ear Infection

Ear infections cause different symptoms in dogs. Keep an eye out for these signs, in order to catch the infection early:

The ears are inflamed, swollen and warm to the touch.

The inside of the ears may look wet or have brown waxy build up.

The ears will have a foul yeasty or fruity smell.

Your dog is shaking its head or scratching at their ears excessively.

Your dog’s ears seem tender or painful if you rub or touch them.

If You Dog is Suffering from Severe Symptoms – Don’t Wait, Drive to the Vet!

If your dog displays any signs of the below severe signs of an ear infection, get your dog to the vet as soon as possible to avoid any permanent damage:

Loss of balance

Unusual eye movements

Walking in circles

Pus draining from the ear

Hearing loss

Vomiting and nausea

Drooling from the side of the mouth

Difficulty eating and dropping food

Eye discharge

Should I Take My Dog to the Vet?

If your dog is having the above severe symptoms, stop reading and go to the vet!

Even military dogs are at risk for ear infections!

If not, here are some ideas to help treat your dog’s ear infection.

Please note these treatments, like all at-home treatments whether for fleas or infection, are intended to help manage your dog’s ear infection until you can see a vet. If the infection becomes dramatically worse, stop treatment and seek emergency vet care.

I’ve yet to find a veterinarian who felt comfortable with people treating their dog’s ear infections without professional guidance.

However, most people who have dogs with chronic ear infections, especially allergic dogs, only need to see the veterinarian once. After that, they only need to call in for refills on the medication.

I know there are situations when you may not be able to afford a visit to the vet. If this is the case, try one of the treatments below.

However, if it is a severe infection, talk to your vet about a possible payment plan.

What Causes Ear Infections?

It’s always good to know what you’re dealing with before you begin treatment on your own.

Allergies – If your dog suffers from allergies, be it seasonal or food, it’s relatively common for them to also suffer from chronic ear infections.

A ruptured eardrum – “A ruptured eardrum can be the result of trauma, infection, exposure to toxins, sudden severe changes in atmospheric pressure, very loud noises, and foreign objects” ~Ryan Llera, BSc, DVM and Ernest Ward, DVM.

Tumor or polyp within the ear canal – Your vet would need to conduct a biopsy to verify a Tumor or polyp.

Long Ears – Dogs with long floppy ears might be cute, but they are naturally predisposed to chronic ear infections. Breeds that are more likely to have issues with their ears include beagles, bassets hounds, cocker spaniels, and retrievers.

Excessive Moisture – Dogs who enjoy swimming often contract ear infections. The combination of the moisture, the dark of the ear canal, and body heat all make for an excellent breeding ground for yeast. You may need to take care when washing your dog, too.

Types of Infections

Diagnosing the actual infection type and cause is something that would need to be done by your vet.

Some infections require particular medications to resolve the issue entirely because medicine that works for one type of infection isn’t always effective for other types.

Bacterial infection

Fungal Infection

Ear Mites

Yeast Infection

What to do if Your Dog has an Ear Infection

If you can get to a pet store

I know that getting to a pet store isn’t always an option, but if it is, I recommend buying a cleaner as well as an over the counter otic treatment.

Cleaners

Getting a liquid cleaner is best for this situation as it can reach further into the ear canal than cleaning pads. These are my favorites:

Burt’s Bees Care Plus+ Relieving Dog Ear Rinse

Virbac Epi-Otic Advanced Ear Cleaner for Dogs & Cats

NaturVet Ear Wash with Tea Tree Oil for Dogs & Cats

Treatments

Once you clean and dry the ears you should administer the medicine.

When purchasing an over the counter medication, choose one that is specific to dogs/pets and specifically states that it’s for infections.

ZYMOX Ear Solution with Hydrocortisone. It’s best to get the one with inflammation relief, if available.

Lively Pets Ultra-Otic Advanced Plus Dog & Cat Ear Cleaner. This one states that it helps treat ear mites, too.

Pet Wellbeing Ear Care Gold. This one indicates that it “encourages natural immunity.”

What if you don’t have access to a pet store?

There are times you may not have access to a pet store.

If that’s the case, I suggest trying to find a health food store, and if that’s not available, go to a grocery store.

There, you’ll find the following natural treatments:

Oregano Oil

Oregano oil is a strong antibiotic that, like other essential oils, should never be used undiluted.

Mix one drop of the oregano oil with a teaspoon of carrier oil. Olive oil is a good choice. You can find both ingredients at a health food store.

It can either be applied directly into the ear or on a cotton ball or gauze and applied to the top of the ear canal.

Calendula Oil

Calendula oil works as an antifungal and pain reliever.

Here’s an example of a boric acid ear cleaner

Be sure to purchase one that can be used directly on the skin without further dilution.

Apply directly on and in the ear.

Calendula oil can be found at a health food store, too.

Coconut Oil

This is good for yeast infections, mites, and general cleaning.

Melt the coconut oil (coconut oil has a low melting point of 76° F) then let it cool completely, but not solidified.

Drop a few drops into the dog’s ear canal and rub gently.

Finish by rubbing small amounts at the top of the ear canal as well.

Boric Acid

This is good for cleaning and also minor infections. The acid nature discourages the growth of yeast.

Be sure to use caution when using this powder. It’s not to be ingested or inhaled, so be sure to protect you and your dog’s eyes, nose and mouth.

Conclusion

These are just some ideas to help slow down the ear infection until you can get into the vet.

Depending on the severity of the situation, the treatments listed above may be all you need to resolve the issue.

However, if it doesn’t completely heal, recurs within a week after the infection has been treated, or gets worse, it would be best to consult your veterinarian.

FAQs

Not for your dog’s ears

Can you put peroxide in a dog’s ear for an ear infection?

Hydrogen peroxide is not recommended because it causes greater irritation, especially if the canal is inflamed or ulcerated.

How long does it take for a dog’s ear infection to clear up?

Anywhere between 10-30 days.

It all depends on the severity and type of infection, as well as the treatment method.

Will a dog ear infection go away on its own?

According to Dr. Wendy Hauser, DVM, “…ear problems aren’t likely to clear up on their own. They are painful and can cause hearing loss if left untreated.”

Is my dog’s ear infection an emergency?

Not usually, but if your dog is suffering from severe symptoms, you should treat it as an emergency.

How do I know if my dog’s ear infection is gone?

All visible symptoms will be gone. Also, the smell should have also wholly resolved.

It’s always good to continue medications for the recommended period to kill off all of the bad bugs, or the infection might return!

10 Healing Herbs for Dogs (and Humans!)

Herbs offer cures for many common canine ailments. I’ve been using them for years, with the blessing of my homeopathic vet, and my dogs have all lived long and remarkably healthy lives. Just because they’re natural doesn’t mean they’re not powerful. Herbs are nothing to sneeze at. What may look like a mere weed or homely root can, in fact, be a very potent medicine. Here’s a list of the top ten herbs for dogs. It’s a pharmacopeia for dogs – call it a bark-acopeia!

But before you try them, ask your vet about dosages, and if any of these are contraindicated for your pet’s existing medications.

French Bulldog lying down by Shutterstock.

Neem

What: Azadirachta indica, an extract of the Neem tree, is nature’s non-toxic insecticide, plus it heals burns and soothes dry, irritated skin.

Why: Applied topically and absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, Neem makes your dog naturally repellent to mosquitoes and fleas. Parasite preventatives work by filling your dog’s blood with poison; in order to be eliminated, the pest has to take a bite out of your best friend. With Neem, Spot won’t even get bitten!

Suggested Use: During the warm months (high mosquito season), bathe once weekly in TheraNeem Pet Shampoo, to which you add several drops of Neem oil; both are available at Whole Foods stores or online. For extra protection from within, administer Neem Plus supplements by Ayush orally once daily, hidden in food.

Yarrow

What: Achillea millefolium – a.k.a. stanchweed, soldier’s woundwort, and sanguinary – helps stop bleeding.

Why: If your dog sustains a cut or laceration, you can administer first aid by flushing the wound with povidone iodine, then treating it with yarrow.

Suggested Use: Wound Balm for Animals by Buck Mountain Botanicals contains yarrow (along with echinacea and goldenseal); it speeds healing and is a first-rate addition to Fido’s first-aid kit.

Arnica

What: Arnica montana, a.k.a. Leopard’s Bane, has long been prized for its astonishing bruise-healing property.

Why: Has Spot sustained a bruise or muscle injury? Arnica does double duty, easing the pain and promoting healing.

Suggested Use: Arnica pellets by Boiron. Administer 3 pellets 3 times daily, in the inside pocket of your dog’s lower lip. It’s OK if he spits it out; healing begins when the pellets make contact with the gum.

Valerian

What: This effective – if highly malodorous – herb (Valeriana officinalis L.) is nature’s time-trusted sedative and sleep-inducer.

Why: For dogs who experience high anxiety during thunderstorms or on the 4th of July, Valerian will put them out for several hours of stress-free slumber. It’s also great for long car trips, to help Spot snooze through the ride.

Suggested Use: Valerian comes in capsules, available at any health food store. To dose your dog, you’ll need to hide the capsules in a piece of meat or cheese with peanut butter on top – anything to mask that awful smell! (Editor’s Note: Again, talk to your vet about dosages.)

Olive Leaf Extract

What: The extract of crushed-up olive leaves (oleuropein) is nature’s antibiotic.

Why: If your dog experiences diarrhea from, say, scarfing something rancid on the sidewalk, the antifungal property of Olive Leaf will help set his digestion right.

Suggested Use: Available at health food stores, Olive Leaf capsules smell and taste exactly like olive oil (i.e. delicious), so there’s no need to hide or mask them. Just sprinkle over your dog’s food like a spice!

Milk Thistle

What: A flowering plant whose extract, Silymarin, is one of nature’s most potent antioxidants for people and pets.

Why: Boosting and protecting the liver, milk thistle is a must if you want to extend the life of your dog. Everything passes through the liver, so it welcomes the support – and because eye and liver health are linked, milk thistle also prevents and reverses cloudy eyes (nuclear sclerosis) in dogs.

Suggested Use: Sold at health foods stores in capsule form, this herb tastes somewhat bitter; very finicky dogs will need to have it hidden in something tasty, but most dogs will eat it sprinkled over their food (cinnamon helps sweeten the deal).

Hawthorn

What: Crataegus is a berry that’s used to treat cardiac insufficiency.

Why: Strengthening the heart muscle and improving circulation, hawthorn helps stave off congestive heart failure in senior dogs (and people), and tones the tickers of younger dogs who’ve survived heartworm disease. Young, healthy dogs don’t need it yet – wait until they’re older.

Suggested Use: One capsule in your dog’s food (available at health food stores); most dogs don’t mind the taste.

Boswellia

What: The resin of the Boswellia tree has many medicinal uses.

Why: Another senior-dog staple, Boswellia reduces inflammation and improves mobility in arthritic K9s.

Suggested Use: Available in tablet form, it’s called “Boswelya Plus.”

Eyebright

What: As its name implies, the flowering plant Euphrasia officinalis has long been used to treat eye infections.

Why: If your dog comes back from the dog park or doggie daycare with goopy eyes, try eyebright first before consulting the vet; you may be able to clear up the problem yourself.

Suggested Use: Euphrasia pellets by Boiron. Administer 3 pellets 3 times daily, in the inside pocket of your dog’s lower lip. As with Arnica (above), it’s OK if he spits it out; healing begins when the pellets make contact with the gum.

Burdock

What: A thistle in the genus Arctium, its root has long been prized for its blood-purifying, hair-regrowing, and cancer-fighting powers.

Why: Use it regularly as a preventative, especially if you have a breed of dog that’s prone to cancer (such as a Boxer).

Suggested Use: Add cooked burdock root (found in the produce section of health food stores and Asian markets) to your dog’s food, or give him a piece of raw burdock to chew on, like a carrot. Or purchase dried burdock online and steep one teaspoon in a cup of hot water; let cool and pour over your dog’s food.

List of blunders for hikers

Careless hikers are more likely to tumble off a cliff, poke a diamondback rattler, and otherwise get themselves in trouble’s way. And frankly, our nation needs more outdoorsy people, not less.

So Backpacker asked me, the author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Backpacking and Hiking, to answer all of your camping, hiking, cooking, training, you-name-it questions. I’m no gonzo, Everest-scaling, bear-wrestling hardman, but I’ve hiked enough miles to recognize which mistakes first-timers tend to make. Let's count 'em off:

1. Wearing denim like Johnny Depp on 21 Jump Street

News flash: Denim is cotton, so wearing jeans (and jean jackets for that matter, Mr. Depp) is a poor choice for any hike, especially in rainy or cold weather. That’s because cotton retains moisture instead of wicking it away like wool and polyester fabrics. Once cotton gets wet, it takes a long time to dry out; that moisture on your skin siphons away body heat through convection, leaving you shivering in your boots, and more susceptible to hypothermia (hence the aphorism “cotton kills”). Jeans are the worst of all cottons because they can ice up in below-freezing weather. I learned this lesson on my first hike with the Appalachian Mountain Club in New Hampshire, and I’ve remained cotton-free ever since, except on short summer hikes where getting chilled isn’t a danger. So the next time you see hikers wearing blue jeans, remind them that the 1980s are over and that Johnny Depp now prefers tri-corner hats and eye-liner. Related Articles : https://www.hikingbay.com

2. Buying your tent or sleeping bag at Wal-Mart

Sam Walton was an Eagle Scout, but he didn’t become America’s richest man selling top-quality camping and hiking gear at discount prices. Yes, Wal-Mart does sell an Ozark Trails sleeping bag for $10, but I wouldn’t use it on a real Ozark Trail. It's fine to buy your beef jerky, trail mix ingredients, and propane canisters at big-box retail stores, but trust specialty outdoor stores and reliable brands for the gear that matters most, like footwear, raingear, sleeping bags, and tents.

3. Hiking a trail with a road map

Not all dotted lines are made equal. Thus, the map that helps you find the trailhead parking lot won’t help you navigate a trail. Hyper-detailed USGS topographical maps (called “quads”) are the gold standard for backcountry navigation, but they are often overkill for popular and well-marked trails. Much easier to acquire and use are designated trail maps that include topographical features like rivers, ridges, and peaks, as well as key info like hiking mileage and trailheads. Book stores and visitor centers often stock maps and guidebooks for local trails, while National Geographic’s Trails Illustrated series is great for U.S. recreation hot spots from Acadia to Zion.

4. Packing a first aid kit as if you’re landing on Omaha Beach

Morphine? Check. Gauze bandages? Check. M1 rifle? What? Most novice hikers either forget to bring a first-aid kit, or pack an entire pharmacy. Neither represents the right approach. You should bring a first-aid kit appropriate for the length of your trip, the size of your group (along with any individual medical needs), and your medical knowledge. The last one is important: If you don’t know how to use a first-aid item—like a suture kit—you probably shouldn’t be carrying it. Packing obscure supplies you’ll probably never use in place of additional bandages and painkillers doesn’t make sense. Basic first-aid essentials for most outings should be: adhesive bandages (various sizes), medical or duct tape, moleskin, sterile gauze, ibuprofen, Benadryl, antibiotic ointment, and alcohol wipes.

5. Being overhead saying, “Lightning can’t strike me—I’m not carrying anything metallic.”

If you think lightning only strikes metal objects, ruminate on this ancient Chinese proverb: “The tallest blade of grass is the first to be cut by the scythe.” Then substitute “knuckleheaded hiker” for the tall grass and “zapped by 100 million volts of electric juice” for the scythe, and you’ve got Professor Hike’s updated proverb on why you absolutely need to descend from exposed peaks and ridgelines when an afternoon thunderstorm is brewing. Lightning is attracted to tall, isolated objects, which could be anything from a clueless hiker standing on a summit to a lone tree. And even if you're not touching that lone tree, the lightning might strike the ground right next to it, or the ground current may surge up you. Secondary strikes can be just as deadly. What's more, lightning can strike targets up to 10 miles from the center of a storm. Trust me on that; I’ve got a few hair-raising tales from New Mexico to prove it. Instead, get into a forest or the low point of rolling hills, a ravine, or a gully. lattcure outfitters sleeping bag https://www.hikingbay.com/finding-the-best-lightweight-sleeping-bag-for-hiking

6. Going ultra-light without ultra-experience

A regular backpacker going ultra-light is like a vegetarian becoming a vegan—it takes time to dial down a new, safe system. Definitions vary, but ultra-light hiking generally means having a base pack weight (your gear minus food and water) of 10 to 12 pounds. The advantage, of course, is that you have less weight to schlep, but your safety net also shrinks: You have fewer backup provisions (food, fuel, warm clothes) if things go wrong, like you fall in a river or rodents steal your food. The more backcountry experience you have, the more safely you can go ultra-light simply because you’re better equipped with skills to, one, avoid such mishaps and, two, improvise if they do occur. However, even expert mountaineers can pay the ultralight price. Think of Joe Simpson of Touching the Void fame: During his and his partner’s ascent of Siula Grande in the Andes, bad weather prolonged their climb, causing them to run out of fuel for melting snow for water—something that later would contribute to Simpson’s fall into a crevasse. That’s why ultra-light hiking should be a gradual goal and not a first-time objective. Reducing pack weight is a skill you hone after much experimentation. So how much weight should you carry on a typical day-hike? Is it 10, 15, or 20 pounds? It all depends on the circumstances. If you’re hiking a dozen miles alone on a mellow trail, you can carry a sub-10 pound load of water, snacks, rain gear, headlamp, and the always essential map, compass or GPS. But if the trail is unfamiliar, tricky, or remote, and you’re hiking in a larger group, you might want to add a small first-aid kit, warm clothing, and extra water and food that pushes your weight north of 15 pounds. That’s because carrying more gear—along with the skills to use it—is your best strategy to reduce risk.

7. Wearing boots fresh from the box

I’m not a fan of hiking proverbs, but there’s one that I consider gospel: “If your feet are happy, the rest of you is happy.” I wised up to that fact on a 95-mile trek (Scotland’s bonny West Highland Way) that I began with stiff leather boots I hadn’t worn in eons. Those boots shredded my feet on the first day out, and I spent the next week limping up and down Scotland’s green hills. Trust me, neither you nor your feet will by happy if you begin a big trip with untested shoes or boots. Starting weeks ahead of time, you need to break them in while mowing the lawn, walking the dog, or running errands around town. Trail shoes, which perform more like athletic footwear, conform quickly to your feet, while taller, rigid boots require more break-in time. Wear recently purchased shoes indoors at first, since most outdoor stores have return policies that exclude those worn outside. If your feet hurt or develop hotspots or blisters, apply bandages, experiment with different socks, and keep at it. Remember also that most people’s feet swell a half size or more by the afternoon.

8. Starting too late in the day

Showing up an hour late for a 7 p.m. dinner reservation is bad manners. But starting at 2 p.m. a hike that you intended to begin at 10 a.m. is bad news. Unless you want your 15 minutes of fame on the CNN ticker (“Clueless Hikers Survive Freezing Nights in Wilderness”), it’s best to start on time, or shorten your route. I learned this lesson the hard way on a 10-mile hike in New Hampshire that began four hours late, included a few frustrating wrong turns, and ended at the trailhead parking lot just before midnight.

Besides an early start, how fast you move matters, too. An athletic adult hikes at 3 mph, but that rate drops to 2 or even 1 mph when you factor in rough terrain, elevation changes, and rest breaks. Groups always move slower than individuals, and a snail on crutches will beat families with toddlers. If you find yourself starting later than anticipated, check your map for shorter routes or a cut-off trail to reach your destination before sunset. If you find yourself falling behind, avoid the lure of cross-country shortcuts, and instead keep moving, watch the time, and be prepared to finish using headlamps, which you packed for just such an occasion.

9. Ignoring the weather forecast

A little rain isn’t a reason to cancel a hike. That’s why we have Gore-Tex boots and waterproof jackets, right? But even the best equipment can’t provide 100 percent protection from the soggy remnants of a hurricane or an Arctic-born blizzard. So before every trip, I review the website www.noaa.gov, which uses a Google Maps interface to generate five-day forecasts for precisely where I’ll be hiking. These results are far more accurate than the traditional forecasts for the nearest town, which could be miles away and thousands of feet lower than a trail. Plus, you can read the “Forecast Discussion,” which is like eavesdropping on local meteorologists during their coffee breaks. Thanks to a NOAA forecast, I knew ahead of time that a powerful thunderstorm would crash a recent backpacking trip in the middle of the night. So I minimized the danger by picking a sheltered campsite, pitching my tent away from lone trees and dangling branches, and tightening the guy-lines for my rain-fly. Sure enough, I awoke at 1 a.m. to witness a ferocious—but mostly harmless—atmospheric cannonade of light and sound. And by morning, as the forecast predicted, the skies were blasted clear. best winter hikes in washington https://www.hikingbay.com/10-best-winter-hikes-in-washington

10. Skimping on Leave No Trace

Litterbug? Not you. I bet you’re a committed recycler. Maybe you even wash and re-use zipper-lock bags. But on a camping trip, where do you dump the soapy water after washing dishes? Do you really strain out the food bits and scatter the “gray” water at least 200 feet from any lake, stream, or campsite? And do you use biodegradable soap? That’s what Leave No Trace (LNT) (www.lnt.org)—seven principles promoting ethical, low-impact outdoor recreation—advises you to do. It’s easy to practice LNT’s major rules: Carry out trash, keep away from wildlife, and minimize the impact of campfires. The finer points, however—like packing out toilet paper and building small fires—are harder to follow. But since Bambi doesn’t crap up your bedroom, you should extend the same courtesy. So here are Prof. Hike’s six tips to make the tough tenets of LNT more achievable:

• 200 feet equals 40 adult strides. • Use the rubber tip of a spatula to scrap leftover food from plates and bowls into your mouth. • Reduce odors by placing silica gel desiccates (those moisture-absorbing packets found in shoe boxes and other packages) into your trash bag, then double-bagging it. • Use dryer lint as natural fire tinder. • Carry versatile sanitary wipes instead of flimsy toilet paper. • Stop washing dishes, as veteran hiker Johnny Molloy advocates in this June 2007 Backpacker article.

OK, there you have it: my top 10 list of n00b blunders. Let us know what you would add to the list!

How to Make 100 Holiday Gifts in Under an Hour

What’s Wrong with Parabens, Anyway?

It is important to understand the toxic chemicals that are put into our consumer products and why first before we dive into our recipes. Here at the School of Holistic Healing we use nothing but all natural, so safe you can eat it skincare products. Ingredients like parabens don’t fit in with this philosophy, but how much do you really know about parabens? Are they really that bad, and why should they be avoided?

If you’ve been around here very long, then I can assume you’re also a fan of natural skincare. Sometimes however sneaky things can hide in our consumer products. And while you know if you can’t pronounce it you should probably avoid it, it’s helpful to know why. So, what’s wrong with parabens, anyway?

What are parabens?

Parabens come in many different forms. You can find methylparaben, butylparaben, ethylparaben, and propylparaben to name a few. They are used as broad spectrum preservatives in many personal care items and even medications like antibiotics, sleeping aids, and Tylenol.

Since parabens have been around since the 1920’s and are used in so many personal care items, people naturally assume they’re safe. Even a recent review from the FDA and American Cancer society have deemed them to be not harmful. However, because of strong internal monetary ties with pharmaceutical companies, any review from the FDA and American Cancer Society has to be taken with a grain of salt or a whole saltshaker.

Where can you find them?

Parabens can hide in everything from shampoo, to sunscreen, to your food. You can do your own search of paraben containing products on the Environmental Working Group (website below) database, which reveals that over 10,000 personal care products that we buy and bring home to our families to use on their skin contain methylparaben alone. That’s not even counting the nearly 10,000 products with propylparaben and the nearly 4,000 with ethylparaben.

The majority of paraben containing products are makeup like eye shadow, eye liner, foundation, and lipstick. Sometimes a product will advertise natural ingredients on the front, but it’s still hiding nasty bad for you stuff in the ingredients label.

The popular makeup brand Cover Girl has a “Clean” foundation powder for sensitive skin. You would assume if they’ve cleaned things up it wouldn’t have parabens in it, yet it has both propylparaben and methylparaben among all the other toxic ingredients.

Endocrine system disruptors

So, if they’re so prolific in personal care products, why are parabens so bad? Research that was published in the Journal of Applied Toxicology found parabens present in the breast tissue of women with breast cancer. Parabens were found in both the tumor and healthy breast tissue.

The scary thing here was that 7 of the women studied had never used deodorant or underarm products, yet there were still parabens present in the cancerous breast tissue. While I’m a little concerned that they’ve never used deodorant before, what’s worse is that it didn’t seem to matter as far as having the toxins in the tissue.

The study also pointed out that the area closest to the armpit, and coincidentally the underarm lymph nodes, is significantly more likely to house cancerous cells compared to other areas of the breast. This could be due to more products being applied to the area, but it could also be due to the lymph nodes becoming overtaxed from toxins as a whole.

The source of the parabens couldn’t be identified. Also, since these women were being treated for cancer, they were being subjected to conventional treatments like chemotherapy pills and other prescription drugs that could have been preserved with parabens.

A group of doctors from California took healthy breast tissue samples and exposed them to both methylparaben and BPA. They found that these healthy cells started behaving like cancerous cells once they were exposed to either of the toxins. As the cells evolved, they even blocked the cancer drugs from working.

This animal study also found that it negatively impacts testosterone levels and caused infertility. It wasn’t just large amounts of parabens that impacted the subjects though, the effects were seen at levels that are considered safe by both Europe and Japan.

Supporters of parabens claim that since no study has shown a definitive, direct causal link, that parabens should still be given the green light. There is enough evidence however that strongly indicates parabens are endocrine system disruptors and can mimic hormones in the body. Multiple parabens are used in just one product, and the impact of exposure from multiple products can compound the issue.

I don’t know about you, but I’m not going to wait around for a more definitive study. I’m staying away from parabens right now!

Head over to the School of Holistic Healing where you will find zero parabens in our Organic Skincare course care products. From deodorants to makeup to lotions, to baby products you’ll love making new organic *healthy* skincare solutions. You’ll love the hundreds of organic home line products we feature in our Skincare course.

How important is it to you that you can actually pronounce the ingredients in your skincare?

When was the last time you checked out the ingredient list on your lotion, foundation, face wash?

Ethoxylated Surfactants, Polyethylene Glycol, Oxybenzone, Benzophenone… what in the world are those ingredients?!

Entering into a more natural way of living has changed how I view these ingredients. Once upon a time, I never even thought about the ingredients in my skincare products. I never realized what an impact they can have on my body or the environment. Take parabens for example. You can find parabens in everything from sunscreen to lip stick.

What’s Wrong with Parabens?

Turns out they are endocrine disruptors and can mimic hormones in your body. Anything that messes with your body like that is bad news!

Realizing that most of the hard to pronounce ingredients came with safety and health concerns pushed me to the “if you can’t pronounce it, don’t buy it” line of thought. Using this philosophy is a great and simple way to choosing safe skincare products. Be honest, those ingredients that I listed just a bit ago took you a long time to pronounce, am I right? Either that or you skimmed over them and abbreviated them (poly-something, oxyb…. bento-what?).

Cocoa Butter, Beeswax, Coconut Oil, Lavender, I bet you can pronounce those!

It can be hard to find skincare products that fit the pronounceable ingredient requirement. Many brands boast that they are made with aloe, or shea butter, or other natural ingredients but then they still have many of the sneaky toxic ingredients as well. It can be overwhelming to find a great brand that is transparent in it’s ingredients and amazing quality.

How would you like to get the most of your Christmas gifts made in one hour?

Allow me to introduce a few recipes from our Organic Skincare Course!

You can. In fact, make more (I’ll explain how in a minute).

Tonight, I made 100 organic skincare gifts in one hour and I’m going to show you exactly how you can do it too.

Your end result will be:

• 10 lavender-chamomile bath tea bags

• 50 chocolate peppermint lip balms

• 24 chocolate peppermint lotion bars

• 16 oatmeal cookie bath treatments

• 6 brown sugar-vanilla sugar scrubs (you can make a lot more of these without much effort)

If you want to make the above gifts, you’re going to need the following ingredients: (measuring ounces – kitchen scale) or (measuring cups – glass measuring cup). Check Walmart for their essential oil section.

1. for lavender-chamomile bath tea bags 1-1/2 cup dried lavender 1-1/2 cups dried chamomile flowers 1/2 cup oats 10 drops lavender essential oil

2. for Chocolate-Peppermint lotion bars and lip balm 15 ounces beeswax 15 ounces cocoa butter 15 ounces coconut oil 2 teaspoons peppermint essential oil

3. for Oatmeal Cookie Bath 6 cups oats 3 cups baking soda 3 teaspoons cinnamon 3 Tablespoons vanilla extract

4. for Sugar Scrubs 3 cups brown sugar 1-1/2 cup organic sunflower oil (Walmart it’s cheap) 1 Tablespoon vanilla (You double, triple, or quadruple these ingredients)

5. You will also need 2 mixing bowls A food processor (for cookie bath) A large pot or double boiler (for lotion bars and lip balm) 2 muffin tins 50 lip balm tubes and lids 10 small muslin tea bags – 2 3/4″ x 4″ measuring cups and spoons freezer space for the muffin tins 20 – 1/2 cup jars (or 6 – 1/2 cup jars for sugar scrubs and 14 cellophane bags for cookie bath)

Note: most of my ingredients are from local organic shops, but many can be purchased from Amazon (such as beeswax, cocoa butter, and lip balm tubes). Also, another great place is www.specialtybottle.com for all of your containers, bags, jars, and they are cheap and no minimum order 1 or 101.

One more bit of advice and do what we did when we first got started. Go to your local thrift stores and pick up any cupcake tins, mixing bowls, measuring cups, and pans to put together a double boiler. You don’t want to use your good kitchen stuff for making these items.

To get all of the ingredients and directions for these gifts. Go over to:

1. www.schoolofholistichealing.org

3. Click on free samples

Number 1. Warm Compress. One of the simplest home remedies for fluid in the ear is the use of a warm compress. Applying heat to the outside of the ear can help relieve any pain and inflammation associated with the fluid as well as help circulation in the area to help flush the fluid out. Number 2. Apple Cider Vinegar. The acetic acid in vinegar can help remove dirt and debris from ears. But more importantly, it can kill both yeast and bacteria. But if your dog has red, sore ears, do not use vinegar. it will be very painful for him. Use one of the other remedies instead. Take your apple cider vinegar and put it in a glass with equal parts distilled water. You can either put it in a syringe and squirt a little in your dog’s ear, or you can soak a cotton ball in the vinegar solution and gently clean your dog’s ear flap with the cotton ball. Number 3. Garlic Oil. Another means of eliminating fluid in your ear is through the use of garlic oil. A natural antibiotic, antiviral, and antifungal, garlic oil can get rid of the cause of the fluid whether they are caused by virus, bacteria or some other pathogen without the need for prescription antibiotics. Number 4. Mullein. Mullein is a plant that has antibacterial properties and it works great for bacterial ear infections. It might seem daunting to buy your own herbs and make your own recipes, but it is quite easy. You can order good quality dried mullein leaf from Mountain Rose Herbs or you can get them at your local health store. Number 5. Breast Milk. Though it might not always be available, breast milk is among the top home remedies for fluid in the ear, especially if it is your baby who is having the problem. The natural antimicrobial properties and other compounds in breast milk can help reduce swelling and help eliminate the issue causing the fluid. Number 6. Olive oil. Olive oil is often sold in drugstores as a cerumenolytic an ear canal lubricant that can loosen troublesome ear wax and provide soothing relief. To apply, warm the olive oil to a lukewarm temperature. Test a drop on your fingertip before putting any oil in your child’s ear. The oil should be close to body temperature, fluids that are too hot or too cold can cause dizziness. Tip your child’s head to the side and, with an eye dropper, put 3–5 drops in the affected ear. You may put a piece of a cotton in the ear as-needed so that the oil does not leak out. Do not put drops in the ear if your child has ear tubes, or if you think there is a chance that the eardrum has ruptured Number 7. Tea Tree Oil. Another remedy that can help to clear the fluid from your ear is tea tree oil. The antiseptic and antimicrobial properties of tea tree oil can help eliminate any infection as well as bring relief to the inflammation. Number 8. Warm, moist heat. Wrapping a hot water bottle in a damp towel and holding it against the aching ear for a few minutes may provide some pain relief. If you don’t have a hot water bottle on hand, a rice sock can be heated in the microwave for short bursts. Another alternative is a warm, wet washcloth. If you use a washcloth, be sure to wring it out well. You want to avoid dripping water into the infected ear. Number 9. Heated Salt. Salt is about as common of an item as you will find in any kitchen, but you might be surprised to see it among home remedies for fluid in the ear. Salt has astringent properties which can help to pull the fluid out of the affected ear and the heat will help relieve the pain and inflammation as well. Number 10. Tulsi. This is another means of eliminating fluid on the ear as well as the pain and swelling. Tulsi, aka holy basil, has natural antimicrobial properties to help eliminate any accompanying infection as well as bring some soothing anti-inflammatory relief.

Corneal ulcer treatment through home remedies and natural cures

Corneal ulcer is epithelial defect with underlying inflammation on the cornea or open sore. The cornea is the clear structure in the front of your eye. Iris is the colored part of the eye. The cornea overlies the iris. Cornea is separated from the iris by the aqueous fluid in the anterior chamber of the eye. The corneal ulcer will often appear as a gray or white opaque or translucent area on the normally clear and transparent area. In the most cases corneal ulcers are caused by bacterial infections. They can cause corneal ulcers and they are very common in people who wear lenses [1]. There are some studies in which are shown that the bacteria can directly invade the cornea if the corneal surface has been disrupted. There are some bacteria which are producing toxins that can cause ulceration of the cornea. Also fungal infections can cause corneal ulcers and they can happen with the improper care of the contact lenses or with overuse of eye drops that have steroids.
