While the CDC is advising against trick-or-treating, some parents are still looking for safe ways to celebrate Halloween with their kids. From candy chutes to clotheslines, the internet is brimming with ideas for socially-distant cand handouts that help you maintain at least 6 ft. of space.
Craft a candy chute —When
dad Andrew posted this photo of a 6-foot-long orange and black candy chute that he attached to his railing, when trick-or -treaters call, simply put a piece of candy in at the top of the PVC or cardboard chute and let them catch it in their candy bags while they wait—at a safe distance—at the bottom. It’s advised that you still wear a mask and be sure to wear and continuously replace latex gloves often to be extra cautious. 2. Candy on a stick—Denver mom Wendy Reeves Winter didn't want to miss out on the parade of cute kids in costumes, so she came up with the ingenious idea to stick candy in her lawn à la Willy Wonka. Simply tape candy to sticks and put them throughout the yard for kids to come and grab on their own. “I still want to hang out on my porch and see everyone’s cute costumes. But no, I don’t want a bunch of kids ringing my doorbell and fishing in my bowl for candy,” she says. “Kids can come by and get candy from a safe distance and I’ll get to smile and wave from my front porch. Win-win.” Winter says you can use any type of stick, including popsicle sticks, plastic spoons, glow sticks, and plastic straws, but warns against putting the candy out too early and attracting squirrels before the kiddos arrive. 3. String a clothesline—Halloween blogger plans to rig a clothesline with goodie bags and full-sized candy bars clipped to the line, sending each out piece-by-piece. “The candy will go from the bag to the clothespin, with my mask on and gloves on, of course. The tots tug the treat off the line without touching anything else, and it will be in the open air instead of coming to the front door,” he writes. “And yes, I'll be prepared if kids take more than one—because that's the Halloween spirit!” 4. A line of twine—In a similar idea to the clothesline, Los Angeles mom Beth is taking more of a trusting approach to the Halloween tradition b y decorating her fence in holiday decor and adding a length of twine with small pieces of candy clothes pinned for kids to grab as they come by. Another idea along these lines would be to hang bags or pieces of candy from a tree or decorate a bush at your front door with treats. 5. Witchy handout—Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble, this is the perfect year to get into character and be the neighborhood witch when you hand out candy. A large toy cauldron can be filled with candy and handed out with an extra-long ladle. One friend is using a pool skimmer that she's spray-painting black. Another friend plans to use a fruit picker that's she'll alter by covering the tines with modeling clay and electrical tape. Either tool will work to stir, scoop, and hand out candy from a safe distance. 6. Goodie bag stations—Of course, sometimes simplicity is the best. A treat table set up with goodie bags, or Dixie cups filled with candy, in your yard or driveway is an easy and straightforward option. Get your neighbors on board so kids can go from table-to-table collecting their treats. It’ll feel almost just like Halloween in days past, and you might find it such an easy way to hand out candy that you keep doing these years after this pandemic is a distant memory. —7. Use the Mail Slot—If you’re lucky enough to have a mail slot, it’s a great way to pass out pre-packaged candy while maintaining a good distance. Trick-or-treaters can knock and you can pass a small bag of wrapped candies out of the mail slot with minimal contact. If you want to get handy, you can even fashion a small platform on the outside of your mail slot, so the candy doesn’t fall to the ground. —8. Arrange a Drive-thru Candy Station—An alternative to traditional trick-or-treating is to set up a drive-thru candy station. In this set-up, trick-or-treaters (or their parents) can pull up to the end of your driveway and you can hand them candy through a cracked window. While easy in theory, this might require some coordination as a neighborhood-wide event. 9. Use a Grabber Tool or Tongs—An excellent way to pass out Halloween candy without physical contact is to use a grabber tool. While grabber tools are often used for picking up litter, they can be used for many purposes. Using a clean, new grabber, you can pick up candy and pass it to trick-or-treaters from several feet away. If you don’t have a grabber tool, sanitize a set of grill or kitchen tongs, and try those. 10. Set Up a Self-Serve Candy Station—An alternative to passing out candy is to set up a self-serve candy station. Here’s how: Place a table in your front yard or driveway and dress it up with Halloween décor. Fill individual baggies with wrapped Halloween candies. Arrange tied/sealed baggies on the table. Allow trick-ortreaters to grab a bag while you greet and observe from a safe distance. If all else fails, don’t judge yourself too harshly if you do what Rena Strober, a mom and musician from Los Angeles plans to. Her daughter is only three, so she plans to skip most of the Halloween festivities and focus on some much-needed self-care. “I’m just eating all the candy myself in front of the TV while I binge watch Say Yes to the Dress,” says Strober.

Splinters occur when a small, thin fragment of wood or other material punctures the skin and becomes embedded. In most cases, it will be possible to remove the splinter at home. However, anyone attempting this should always wash their hands and any equipment they will use first. If the area becomes infected, it may be necessary to see a doctor. In this article, we cover simple methods to remove a splinter and explain when a person should seek medical attention It is possible to remove a splinter at home using one of several methods. The best method depends on: the location of the splinter; how deep the splinter is; the size of the splinter; the direction of the splinter The most common methods for getting rid of a splinter: Most people with a small, easy-to-access splinter will use tweezers to remove it. Tweezers make it possible to pinch the splinter and pull it out. Tweezers must be disinfected with rubbing alcohol. Duct tape is a very strong tape that can help remove a deeper splinter. This method is often painless. Cleaning area thoroughly, apply duct tape to the splinter and wait about 30 minutes then pull tape off. If this method does not work the first time, try again. When the splinter has fully punctured the skin, and no part of the material is visible, a person may be able to expose part of it using an alcohol disinfected needle then use tweezers to remove splinters.

While this method still needs medical testing; some people try soaking the area in a solution in an attempt to draw out a buried splinter. Some commonly used solutions include: hydrogen peroxide; Epsom salt mixed with water; baking soda mixed with water; lavender oil; honey or warm water. Using one of these solutions, try removing the splinter by: soaking the splinter in the liquid for a few minutes then use a sanitized pair of tweezers to remove the splinter one it has surfaced. However, if a splinter is completely beneath the skin, it is usually best to visit a doctor to have it removed. It is important for a person to assess their wound before choosing a removal method. Things to look for include: Is part of the splinter sticking out? Where is the splinter located? In which direction is the splinter going? Before getting started, a person should thoroughly wash their hands with soapy water and sanitize any equipment that they plan to use. Finally, it is essential never to squeeze or pinch the skin around the splinter. Applying pressure can cause the splinter to break into more pieces or push it further below the surface. A person should seek medical attention when: there is redness or discoloration around the splinter; the area swells; the wound is leaking pus; the splinter is large; the skin is warm to the touch; the splinter is near the eye; the wound is excessively painful; the splinter is stuck deep in the skin.

THE WORD
D
by Mark D. Roberts
So, for those of us who are in the third third of life, or who are soon to enter it, Psalm 92 offers extraordinarily good news. We do not have to stop being fruitful just because our hair is turning gray or our bodies are not as supple as they once were. If we live in the way God intends for us, if we let our “roots” grow deeply into the divine soil, if we rely on God’s strength and grace, then we can live with meaning and purpose. The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God. They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, proclaiming, “The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.” Psalm 92:12-15 (NIV) I must have read this passage from Psalm 92 at least a couple dozen times in my life, given my practice of devotional psalm reading. Yet, though this text passed before my eyes, it never before struck my heart. But this time was different. A few months ago, as I read Psalm 92:12-15, it was if I had never seen these lines before. They stunned me with their relevance and encouragement. In particular, according to this passage, the righteous “will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green.” Why did this picture of flourishing in old age spark my attention? There are at least two reasons why. First, though I’m not quite ready to own that I’ve entered “old age,” I can relate to the Hebrew from which this phrase is taken. The original language reads literally, “they will bear fruit even in gray hair.” Although I have several brown hairs left on my head, I admit they are outnumbered by the gray ones. Moreover, when I grew out my beard a couple of years ago, it was not brown, as it used to be, or even gray, but white, just like Santa’s, only not as bushy. So, though I’m not ready to say that I’m old, I will admit that I have entered “third third” of life.[1] At 62 years of age, if I live as long as American men my age are predicted to live, which is 82 years, then I’m more than 7 years into my third third.[2] Thus, given my perspective as a “third thirder,” I was ready to pay attention as never before to Psalm 92:15 with its promise of fruitfulness even “in old age.” I really would like to be “fresh and green” for many years to come. There’s a second reason that Psalm 92:12-15 stood out to me as I read it recently. It has to do with my work at Fuller’s Max De Pree Center for Leadership. In the four plus years that I’ve been Executive Director of the De Pree Center, I’ve talked with hundreds of leaders about their work and the role God plays in it. In many of these conversations, people in the latter part of their professional life have expressed concern about their future. One man said to me, “I know I should retire to make room in the company for the people I’ve mentored. It’s their turn. But I don’t feel as if I’m done working yet. I don’t really want to retire. But some kind of change is coming. I know that.” This man, along with many other men and women in a similar season of life, added, “The De Pree Center should take on the issue of retirement. You could really help us figure out.” Part of figuring out retirement (a word that really doesn’t serve us well in this
conversation, by the way) is getting clear on the biblical vision of life as God intends it to be. In particular, we need to understand what our lives could and should be in the third third, when, as the biblical text says, we have gray hair (or, I might add, thinning hair, no hair, dyed hair, or even hair that has maintained its natural color). Psalm 92:12-15 is a key biblical passage if we’re looking for how God views the third third of life. It begins by affirming that “The righteous will flourish like a palm tree; they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon” (92:12). Those who are righteous live-in right-relationship with God, with people, and with and the world God created. Their growth is enhanced by the fact that, in a manner of speaking, they have been planted in God’s temple, thus deriving sustenance from the Lord. Israel’s date palms and Lebanon’s cedar trees were notable in the ancient world for their fruitfulness, resilience, stature, and beauty. The affirmation of this verse reminds us of Psalm 1, which affirms that the one who delights in God’s law “is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers” (1:3). But Psalm 92 adds something not found in Psalm 1. Not only will the righteous flourish, but they will do so especially in the latter seasons of life: “They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green” (92:14). The Hebrew verb translated here as “bear fruit” is used in Scripture metaphorically with the meaning “grow, prosper, flourish.”[3] So, even though they may not have the physical vitality of youth, folks in the third third who live rightly will continue to make a difference with their lives. They will be “fresh and green,” that is, young at heart even as their bodies age and their hair turn gray. The final verse of Psalm 92 reminds us that flourishing in old age has everything to do with God. The righteous will proclaim that “The LORD is upright” (92:15). Whatever righteousness they possess comes from God. Thus, they say, “he is my Rock” (92:15). God is the one who is strong, trustworthy, and secure. Rather than claiming personal credit for their third third flourishing, the righteous acknowledge God as the one who has made it possible. Moreover, they are living so that God is glorified. In the language of Ephesians, they are flourishing “for the praise of [God’s] glory” (Eph 1:12). So, for those of us who are in the third third of life, or who are soon to enter it, Psalm 92 offers extraordinarily good news. We do not have to stop being fruitful just because our hair is turning gray or our bodies are not as supple as they once were. If we live in the way God intends for us, if we let our “roots” grow deeply into the divine soil, if we rely on God’s strength and grace, then we can live with meaning and purpose. Even if we experience major transitions in our primary work, we can still make a difference in the world. We can flourish, not only in our personal wellbeing, but also through contributing to the wellbeing of others.

Mosquitoes are here, these pesty little creatures are biting everybody. Below is a few Natural Mosquito Repellent that might help.
People are usually prone to mosquito bites due to a combination of scent, light, heat, and humidity. If you’re a mosquito magnet, you’re probably tired of having itchy, bumpy skin. Different species of mosquitoes — like the ones that carry malaria — prefer bacteria and sweat. Others are attracted to carbon dioxide and certain hand odors. If you’re doing things like taking a hike, hanging out in your backyard, or taking a camping trip, natural repellents might be a better option. This can be especially true for children, who are more sensitive. Here’s a few natural repellents one might consider using: 1. Lemon eucalyptus oil used since the 1940s, lemon eucalyptus oil is one of the more well-known natural repellents. CDC approved. You can create your own mixture with 1 part lemon eucalyptus oil to 10 parts sunflower oil or witch hazel. Researchers from the University of Florida caution against using the mixture on children under 3 years of age. 2. Lavender Crushed lavender flowers produce a fragrance and oil that can repel mosquitoes. An animal study Trusted Source on hairless mice found lavender oil to be effective at repelling adult mosquitoes. Lavender has analgesic, antifungal, and antiseptic qualities. This means that in addition to preventing mosquito bites, it can calm and soothe the skin. You can grow lavender in an outdoor garden or in indoor planters. Crush the flowers and apply the oil to bite-sensitive areas of the body, such as your ankles and arms. Also drop some lavender oil on a clean cloth and rub it onto the skin. 3. Cinnamon oil is more than just a great topper to

applesauce or oatmeal. According to a study conducted in Taiwan, cinnamon oil can kill off mosquito eggs. It can also act as a repellent against adult mosquitoes, most notably the Asian tiger mosquito. To make a diluted 1 percent solution, mix 1/4 teaspoon (or 24 drops) of oil for every 4 ounces of water. You can spray the fluid onto your skin or clothing, around your home, and onto upholstery or plants. Be careful when applying cinnamon oil, as a concentrated dose can irritate your skin.
species. Keep away from your eyes and try to avoid use if you have sensitive skin. It causes eye and skin irritation . Please Note essential oils should never be put on the skin directly. They are always diluted in a carrier oil such as almond oil. The recipe is usually 3 to 5 drops of essential oil in 1 ounce of carrier oil. Essential oils aren’t regulated Trusted Source by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It’s possible to buy a faulty product, so always buy from a reputable source. If you are going to be traveling in an area where mosquitos are known to carry diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, or the Zika virus, doctors advise a chemical mosquito repellant to reduce the odds of contracting a dangerous illness.
4.Thyme oil, when it comes to repelling malarial mosquitoes, thyme oil is one of the best at providing protection. In one animal study Trusted Source, 5 percent thyme oil applied to the skin of hairless mice provided a 91 percent protection rate. You may also want to throw thyme leaves into a campfire. Research shows that burning thyme leaves offers 85 percent protection for 60 to 90 minutes. For a homemade brew, combine 4 drops of thyme oil to every teaspoon of base oil, such as It’s also possible to have an allergic reaction from the olive or jojoba oil. For a spray, mix 5 drops of thyme oil active ingredients in essential oils.

D By Research Department A “warm” phone is perfectly normal, however, if your phone gets too hot (painful to touch) there may be reason for concern. If your cell phone is simply a little bit warm after you’ve made a phone call or used an app, that’s nothing to be alarmed about. Cell phones are too small to have fans. Instead, they use a special coating on the circuits inside to better diffuse heat and this solution works most of the time. However, when your phone becomes hot to the touch, displays a heat warning, or stops working due to overheating, there’s something wrong that needs to be addressed. First of all, your phone’s temperature depends on usage and air temperature. When you’re using your phone for high-intensity tasks like playing games, streaming videos, or taking lots of photos, the temperature can reach the low-to-mid 40°C (104°F) range — or even a bit higher if the air temperature is very high. If your cell experiences a temperature warning message; Not being able to use your phone until it cools down; Charging slows down or stops completely; Display keeps dimming or goes black; Camera flash stops working; Apps don’t work properly or start crashing. Some of these things don’t necessarily have to be the result of overheating. But if your phone gets hot several times a day and if it starts behaving abnormally when it’s hot, your device’s temperature is probably higher than normal. Take note, If you’ve ever left your phone on a towel at the beach, or sitting on a table in the bright sun
for too long, you know just how quickly those UV rays can overheat it. You may have left it in the car on a hot summer day, this kind of overheating can be a serious problem. Direct heat can seriously damage your phone’s internal components, impact battery life and charge time, slow down performance. When it gets too hot from the sun, find a cool, dark place to leave it. If your phone hasn’t been in a hot environment or direct sun, but it’s badly overheating, possibly there’s too much processing power or emit too much light from its screen. Phones can get too hot because too many apps running; gaming for too long; watching Netflix, YouTube, or other streaming content too long. You’ve been browsing with the screen brightness cranked up too high; connected to a Bluetooth device or Wi- Fi for too long; taking too many pictures or long videos. In these cases, there’s probably nothing seriously wrong — your phone just needs a bit of a break to cool down. If your phone overheats while sitting idly in your pocket on a cool day, for example, it could mean that the processor is being pushed to its limit by malware. A form of mobile malware could be continuously running apps, widgets, or harmful processes in the background that strain your phone’s processor causing too much heat. You can avoid getting malware on your phone by installing top-quality antivirus software for Android or one the top-rated iOS antivirus apps. Stop using your phone immediately (if it’s truly overheating, you may have no choice as most phones will lock up when they reach a certain temperature). Find a cool, dark place to leave your phone for a while hopefully
it will start working again in a few minutes. While some websites advise people to place overheated phones in the fridge or freezer, never do this. Putting a hot phone in a very cold place like your fridge can cause irreparable damage. Cases can trap heat against the phone’s shell and prevent it from cooling down. If your phone is having trouble cooling down, take the case off and give it a chance to breathe. If your phone still won’t cool down, turn on airplane/offline mode to shut down any Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connections. There could be too many apps and processes running in the background, causing your phone’s processor to burn out. You’ll often be surprised how many apps and browser windows you have open. Close A down everything non-essential, even the camera app, and give your phone a much-needed break. If none of the above helps your phone cool down, there could be a malware issue burning out your processor. Scan yours and find out if there’s any malicious software eating away at your processing power. If all else fail something may be mechanically wrong with it, take it to a professional service technician to diagnose and fix it. Good Luck with your cellphones. They have become our everyday communication partner; our entertainment and personal friend.

Most are familiar with castor oil for cooking but what they don’t know may actually save them! Aches and pains are something I come across on a daily basis so how can you treat your injury out of the office? Yes, Castor Oil! Castor Oil has anti-inflammatory properties that can help heal your injury. The use of castor oil for Bursitis, tendonitis, and other inflamed joints happens to work extremely well, and to be honest, it’s kind of shocking that more people do not know about this. While castor oil is a known use for constipation, has antiviral, and antimicrobial properties and has been used for many other things, it has been used to treat acne, dermatitis, and other skin disorders. There is now evidence that Castor Oil helps with lymphatic drainage and circulation, which may be the reason why it is so effective in helping painful joints How to use castor oil for joint aches, pains, and inflammation? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Place castor oil on the inflamed joint and massage it for about 3 minutes. Take a piece of flannel and saturate the flannel with more castor oil. Wrap flannel around the affected joints. Apply clear plastic wrap around the joint so that it compresses the joint. Apply heat for 15-20 minutes. Larger joints 20 mins smaller about 10 – 15 mins Clean off castor oil after use. Repeat this at least once a day for 3-5 days.
The heat drives the castor oil through the skin, through the subcutaneous fat and into the muscles which can help them heal. Keep in mind that castor oil can stain and is kind of messy so do this outside, or in an area where it’s easy to clean. I swear its worth your effort and will cost you less than $15 for many uses! The bottom line is that castor oil can be a new way to add to your holistic and alternative lifestyle. It is extremely affordable and provides many benefits.

What Happens To Your Body When You Eat an Apple
Fun fact: the first recorded use of the phrase "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" dates back to the 1860s, when it actually originated as "eat an apple on going to bed, and you'll keep the doctor from earning his bread." (We think the modern version is a bit snappier.) Eating a variety of foods is a hallmark of healthy eating, but apples really are worth eating every day. From Granny Smiths to Pink Ladies, you certainly have your choice of varieties, all of which boast tons of health-promoting nutrients.
Systemic inflammation is a driving factor behind a host of chronic diseases— so we'd all do well to reduce it as much as possible. Eating an apple every day may help! This fruit is rich in an antioxidant called quercetin, which research shows tames inflammation in the body. Meanwhile, additional antioxidants like catechin and vitamin C join the mix to reduce oxidative damage in your cells.

A True Story, see how God Can Work! On June 24, 2010, I lay in ICU dying, unconscious, with a fever of 104, with heart rate of 38 and falling. I was diagnosed with West Nile Virus that has no known antidote. With only hours left to live, a highly specialized medical team had surrendered...waiting now for only death to claim me. The long days passed painfully with never-ending nights that were darker than ever for those who waited. The only hope that remained was that the faithful God would rescue me. Days earlier, my youngest daughter, Tricia, had laid her Bible on the window sill so others could read a scripture over me as I lay unconscious. The days passed with continual grim reports. It seemed as if all hope was gone. Barbara, being alone in the ICU room, was unaware of the Unseen Christ that appeared and stood at the head of my bed. Though unconscious in my physical body, my spiritual man awoke as I saw Him standing there in all of His glory. He spoke words that are written in Psalm 107:20 as He laid
His right hand on my chest- "I will send my Word and heal you of all your diseases." He looked toward Barbara, whom I could not see, and spoke- "tell Barbara to lay the bible open on your chest. Tell the people to speak only the Word and pray only the Word". With a voice that could hardly speak, I related these unforgettable words"Christ just came into the room"...I repeated His instructions. She quickly responded and laid the bible open on my chest. In a matter of 12 hours, I was moved into a private room. My vital signs had changed dramatically, with temperature of 99, and heart rate of 70, fully conscious. To the astonishment of the medical staff, 4 days later I was released with no signs of the nightmare of an incurable disease. I leave this with you, -"Why are you cast down, oh my soul, Put your trust in God". Speak only the Word and pray only the Word. When you do, I will believe with you that He will heal all of your sickness and diseases.
