Within the last 2-3 wks the nation has seen bizarre true stories of Man eating man's face.  Reports of several incidents have followed since that of Rudy Eugene's story.  "Zombie-like" behavior has been described as the after math of "Bath Salts."


This drug referred to as "Bath Salts" are now being seen in local smoke shops.  With street names and nicknames such as listed below: 




What are "Bath Salts" you might as?  It is a dangerous chemical drug that if inhaled or for lack of term, "shooted up" has unparalleled behaviors of paranoia, severe aggression, hallucinations, and induce psychosis.  "Bath Salts" is often being sold or poses as synthetic cocaine. 


Another drug making popularity is "Strawberry Quick."  Referred to as "Pop Rocks" candy, and may come in more than one flavor.  "Strawberry Quick" is a new form of Crystalized Meth that takes characteristics of the actual Pop rock candy.  









Perhaps it's due to boredom or "god-like" complex feelings, it's inevitable that there continues to be a lot of bad out there in this world.  As educators, role models, or parents please take the time to advice your kids and young adults.  Thanks for reading!

Downy Unstopables Scent Boosters



So I decided to try this at Target as oppose to my usual Downy Fabric Softener liquid.  New product? Why not give it a try right?  I would have to say that i will never go back to fabric softener liquids again!  I use this in combination with my Green Works and ECOS Laundry detergent.  




Target sold the Downy Unstopable Boosters for $7.99/13.0z container.  I believe they have 3 scents available (fresh, lush, and delight).  You can determine which scent is right for you by squeezing and sniffing the container.  Just throw in a cap full to your wash and no alteration is needed to the settings of your washer.  I love this product and would recommend it to anyone who appreciates fresh smelling laundry!

Sinuses/Congestion, Spelt Grain, and Tunes!

Suffer from seasonal allergies?  Spring blossoms got you sneezing?  Congested from being sick?  Have no fear homeopathic solutions are here!  I for one know this method works because my sister has been using it for weeks in place of popping sinus meds (i.e. Zyrtec, Sudafed, Claritin, Allegra, Tavist, Chlor-Trimeton, Benadryl, etc.) So here's the secret!  Are you ready?  Oregano Essential Oil is the magic solution! 



DIRECTIONS:  Fill any regular size soup bowl with boiling hot water (DO NOT microwave H2O).  Put 3-4 drops of the Oregano Oil and swish around with a spoon.  Take a workout towel and put over your head.  Breath in the vapor from the bowl.  Make sure to take deep good breaths to reap the benefits.  Best done at night before going to bed!  Repeat daily as needed!


 

For the brown rice or quinoa lovers, i've got a healthier alternative!  I recently discovered Spelt Grain Berries. Got this 1lb bag at Whole Foods for $4.  It has more protein per serving than brown rice or quinoa combined! Although it takes up more time and water to cook, (1c of grain per 3c of h2O) it delivers a nuttier taste and fluffier texture than quinoa.  With 24 grams of protein per 1c, i say its worth a try.  From a healthy standpoint it is always good to try new things to shake up the palate.  Can't always eat the same mundane flavor, it gets quite boring!

LOVE THE ORIGINAL BUT DIG THE REMIX:

Love Is a Four Letter Word

Today drops the 4th album by Jason Mraz.  "Love Is a Four Letter Word" released its first single January 2012 with the track, "I Won't Give Up."  When Jason Mraz wrote this song, it seemed highly probable that his ipod playlist involved John Denver's "Annie's Song" and Switchfoot's "Dare You to Run."  The similarities will either sway or lure you to the 13 track album.  The video gives a heart felt vibe and the lyrics of the song sums up the title of the album.  Whether you are a die hard fan of J. Mraz or not, this video showcases his lyrical raw emotional talent.  He also features his "hippie" type look. Other tracks that caught my ear are below.  Enjoy and Happy Tues!
"I Won't Give Up"

"The World as I See It" 

"The Woman I Love"

"Be Honest"

"You Fckn Did It"

"93 Million Miles"

"The Freedom Song"
