Paola: It’s another podcast at JoetteCalabrese.com. Today, we’ve got a new episode for the Moms with Moxie miniseries.
Joette: All the way from my desk in New York, I get to see how homeopathy is transforming lives all over the globe. Some of my students have really caught my eye. Some of you have done all you can to learn how to cure those around you using homeopathic medicines. Your successes inspire me. They’re glorious and powerful. I can’t keep your successes a secret any longer. So, with help from my roving reporter, Paola, we bring you this mini podcast series that I call Moms with Moxie. It’s actually grandmoms, too. But it’s Moms with Moxie. See how regular mothers and others, average people who want to cure those around them have gone from freaking to fabulous with homeopathy.
Paola: I am here with Shannon Gunther. I am so excited to be with you today, Shannon. We’ve gotten to know each other a little bit on the phone and through email. We have a really great podcast for Joette’s listeners.
Shannon: I am so excited to be here. Thank you.
Paola: Shannon, tell me where you’re from, where you’re living, what state or whatever.
Shannon: I am in Northern California. We’re up in the mountains. I am a homeschooling mama with seven kids and of course, a husband. Just getting ready to graduate my third child, so pretty exciting.
Paola: Awesome, graduate your third child. So, you’re a little bit ahead of me. I have to say you look just as young as you sound. That is so fun that you can just be so young to enjoy your family.
Paola: Do you have grandkids or anything yet? Are any of your kids …?
Paola: So, your oldest is 20.
Shannon: Well, it’s pretty cute.
Paola: Shannon, the first question I like to ask Moms with Moxie like you is why do you love homeopathy.
Shannon: Well honestly, when I found it, it completely gave me my life back. I was suffering from some chronic illness and I was at the end of my rope. I’ve tried everything and homeopathy was it. It completely gave me my life back.
Paola: Do you feel like you have perfect health now?
Shannon: I don’t have perfect health but improvement in my life, just I can function again. It’s going to be a longer journey. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue. But I’d tell you, within that first month of starting remedies, I felt like a new person.
Paola: So you mean, you’ve been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue by a traditional doctor?
Shannon: Of course, there were lots of tests involved and can we for sure be sure.
Shannon: But it all was pointing to that with extreme exhaustion and what not.
Paola: I’m trying to remember where I read this. It was a homeopathic practitioner (who might have been Joette, I don’t know). They say that your hormones are a three-legged stool.
Paola: Your adrenals, your thyroid, and then the other stuff — the progesterone and all that pituitary stuff — and when one of them goes out, the other two were close behind.
Shannon: Exactly. It’s just so linked and one will try to help the other and then of course get weakened. So, it’s just like this complex stuff. But I found homeopathy, so it simplified it completely.
Paola: You feel like you’re living a robust life and that’s the thing. That’s the key. Joette says it. You’re not going to have perfect health. That doesn’t exist.
Shannon: Exactly. Yes, I have my bad days. I have days where I’m definitely more tired. But I can get out of bed. I can feel not as overtaxed. I emotionally am stable. That was just a huge blessing.
Paola: That is huge. You’re right. I know. I feel like I also don’t have perfect health, but when I look at what I can accomplish in a week, it’s okay. I’m working on it. We got it. It’s okay.
Paola: Well, let’s talk about … what was your life like before Joette? Let’s go into some more details.
Shannon: I had my first child in my 20s and really got into herbs, really loved herbs. They helped with colds that little toddlers get. So, I was just a huge fan. I was into eating really healthy. Then we discovered Weston A. Price, loved that. So, I fell into herbs and the clean eating. That definitely assisted with health. That was great.
But fast forward to right after I had my 7th baby. I was right around 30. That’s when all the chronic stuff popped up. So, I found, I went to a naturopathic doctor, got on Nature Throid. That’s all good. I was taking a lot of stuff. I mean it’s great supplement. I believed in it. But it never quite got me over the hills. So, it was a constant few steps. Climb up a bit this mountain and slip down. Climb up and we’re never reaching the top and getting over that.
Paola: Wow! Good for him.
Shannon: I know. So, that was really incredible, that just willing to do that.
Paola: It is so discouraging when you have improvements and then it stops working. I mean it’s one thing to have a step forward, a step back, and a step forward but to have it stop working, oh my gosh. It’s like you feel like you’re losing everything.
Shannon: To just go on this rollercoaster up and down for eight years, it was just so discouraging. It was like I actually can’t mentally do this anymore. So that brought me to the end of the rope. It was like okay, homeopathy is left. It’s not like I didn’t believe in it but I just didn’t know. I didn’t know about it fully.
Paola: So, your naturopath brought in the homeopath, just like a classical or what?
Shannon: So nobody had said that to me in my eight years to that point of we can help you out.
Shannon: Like I said before, really my body just, of course, just responded so well right away.
Paola: Then tell me about before Joette then, as far as being a mom, what was that like?
Shannon: I was again just into herbs. That was before the chronic. So, that’s what I would just assist our bodies with, the herbs and the eating healthy, kind of Weston A. Price, because at that point when I had little kids, I didn’t have the chronic.
Paola: I see, which is interesting because it sounds like you’re doing everything right and then the chronic stuff came which is a little bit scary. That’s not supposed to happen.
Shannon: I know. I know. Genetics!
Paola: Yes, that’s true. Then you did have a lot of kids which is sometimes more stressful on some women. Some women, every time they give birth, it’s like they get thinner and their hair gets thicker.
Shannon: Exactly. You know, I can look back. When you do your timeline, Joette suggests this timeline, I had antibiotics as a kid. I had some vaccinations. Then of course, there’s a strong family history of hypothyroidism. I just think of those like Joette talks about that sleeping giant. It just made sense just as far as the chronics.
Paola: Yes, that’s true. Yes. You could have been much worse off. I’m sure, obviously, right? So, that’s good that you were wise and just from the beginning avoiding what she calls — what is it she calls it — avoiding medicines of commerce, so very good. I remember, you also told me something about how Joette transformed your perspective on illness in general.
Shannon: So, I just love that.
Paola: Something that you even mentioned the chicken pox. I don’t know where she got it from, but my daughter got the chicken pox. She has it literally right now. I posted on Facebook like, “Stay away or whatever, if you want to stay away,” just kind of public warning, public health warning that she’s got chicken pox. The responses I got from my friends that do homeopathy and my friends that don’t do homeopathy were night and day. So, my friends who know homeopathy and do homeopathy were like, “Oh, you got this.” Just like oh, rite of passage, very even-keeled, calm about it. My other friends that don’t do any sort of natural homeopathy or even natural medicine, “We will pray for you. I am so sorry.” I appreciate that. That’s so nice of them. Thanks. We always need prayers, I guess. But there is a fear and a lack of empowerment and understanding there that I’m so glad I don’t have.
Shannon: That is so true. Even when I was doing herbs primarily, I had this book. It actually had different things in there addressing to help with measles and the mumps and the chicken pox. That’s just, as a mom, empowering like, “Oh! We can do this.” Now, homeopathy just was all the more … as far as feeling confident and especially just with Joette teaching those Banerji Protocols.
Shannon: Oh man, that is just huge amount of confidence. Yes, got that. Oh yes, we got this. So that’s just wonderful.
Paola: Yes, you’re right. That’s the difference between fear is having information and preparation and that gives you the confidence.
Paola: So tell us. Speaking of getting that information, have you taken any of Joette’s courses? If so, which ones?
Shannon: Yes. I’ve taken all of them, as many as I can. I think the Skin course was my first. Then I did the Survivalist, Good Gut, Bad Gut, Allergies, just finished Feminopathy. I just got it. I need to carve out that time to sit down and listen to that. So, I’m super excited. With four girls … I’m just super excited about it.
Paola: Awesome. So, this is a practical question. But how did you save up for all those courses? What did you do? Like no Christmas anymore, just homeopathy.
Paola: Yes. Let’s keep learning and doing it.
Paola: Which of the courses so far in what you’ve experienced has had the most impact for you?
Shannon: In my experience, and especially with seven kiddos here, Survivalist. Mainly because it’s so practical, and you get a syllabus with it. So, that chapter on first aid is well worn. I run in to it! The kids know the book. They’re like, “Get Mama’s syllabus here.” In fact, I will say it paid for itself because it saved us two emergency room visits. So right there, paid.
Paola: For some people on the low end, that copay is just 100 bucks. So, it goes up from there. So yes, I want to hear the stories. Tell us about an experience where you felt like the Survivalist Guide was awesome.
Shannon: This is kind of my biggest story to date. It’s about my daughter who is 12 years old. It was this last summer. We had been splitting wood with gas motor log splitter and stacking wood.
Shannon: I had come in, I think to make lunch for everybody. I had to walk to the back of the house where the laundry room was, and found her just sitting there kind of in a state of collapse. I said, “Oh no, what’s going on?” I very soon realized that she was in a state of confusion as well. She was crying just kind of gently, “It’s my head.” Her head hurts but very rapidly, the symptoms were increasing very fast. She cannot talk clearly. So, it was kind of babbling.
Paola: She could just babble and not form coherent words?
Shannon: Yes, correct. Of course, that freaked me out.
Paola: Oh my gosh, yes.
Shannon: I’m like, “Oh my goodness.” So, I called. I had one of the kids get my husband. I called the older kids just to help us. I was having people get the homeopathy kit, the syllabus, the Survivalist syllabus.
Shannon: It was great. So, I’m thinking anaphylactic shock. I’m thinking she got stung by a bee. She’s reacting.
Shannon: We’re having a lot of trouble with these bees in the late summer. They were just crazy and angry.
Shannon: So, we wait. Husband came in. We’re looking over for a bee sting. He got on his phone and Googled her symptoms. He saw it’s coming up carbon monoxide poisoning. I’m, “Oh no!” He’s all, “No, really, look.” I’m like, “What?” We’re out in the fresh air with log splitting and all. Sure enough, it totally matched. So, I quickly looked up carbon monoxide poisoning in the Survivalist syllabus.
Paola: Real quick, your husband is sensitive to carbon monoxide too?
Shannon: He is, so, yes. Yes, I’m glad you reminded me. We knew he was sensitive to that. She is just very much like him, so kind of prone to that as well.
Paola: That helped that he was kind of aware what that feels like or something.
Shannon: Yes, it really is in there. I love it.
Shannon: I’m like okay. So of course, her daddy is holding her. We opened a door, fresh air. She’s real sensitive and she gets very distressed when she’s ill. So, she’s very distressed. She actually knew that she couldn’t form her words. She was trying to communicate. So that freaked her out all the more. It was just bad. So, looked up, there are several different remedies for carbon monoxide, but she fit Gelsemium alternating with Belladonna. I would dose her and I’d watch. Literally. Before our eyes, her body calmed.
Shannon: That’s actually, I knew how to dose. And then the intensity of her … and her words would come back. She could form her words because we’d ask her questions and all that. Even her eyelids were kind of half open, and she had a little bluish on her eyelids. It’s so faint that probably just a mom could tell. I could watch that go away and then I’d watch it come back.
Paola: What does that mean blue on the eyelid? Is it lack of air?
Shannon: I’m not sure. That was just something I noticed because it would go away. In the description that fit these remedies for her, it did talk about the eyelids kind of being half open. So that was just something I was aware of and just caught. I’m just not really completely … I knew … up to that point, I had no idea about carbon monoxide poisoning.
Paola: Right, yes. It doesn’t matter. It was something blue. It wasn’t supposed to be. It was coming and going. You wanted it gone. Right.
Paola: I have an important question. What about that situation, why weren’t you guys jumping in the car driving to the emergency room? What’s that discernment like? Sometimes in the moment, you’re just doing what feels right, but can you walk us through that real quick?
Shannon: I did during this episode here. I would look at my husband and I’d say, “Do you think we should go to the emergency room?” I’m so glad he was there. He just totally confirmed my confidence as far as no, let’s just keep going because what would happen is when I would dose, there would be improvement. So, we saw the improvement by watching her body. Literally, you could just watch this calm come over her body. But I had to dose every three minutes for about an hour actually. I know that’s usually not typical, but I would just watch the symptoms come back. So, we did that for the first hour and then she wanted to go to sleep. She was calm. She could speak. And so, I love, love that when a remedy is working then they want to sleep. That’s a neat sign. That’s a sign that I look for.
Paola: Okay. So deep down, that kind of scares me though because I’m like what if she falls asleep and doesn’t get up again. You know what I mean?
Paola: So what did you do?
Shannon: Because she wanted to sleep, I had her laid down on the couch and I sat with her. Then I dosed every 30 minutes for the next hour or two. Then from thereon out, I dosed every hour to the end of the day. Then I just had her sleep in my room because I just wanted to watch her and observe and just make sure nothing was coming back.
Shannon: Yes, exactly. Of course, we would jump in that car. I love what Joette says. You jump in the car and you start driving, but you’re dosing on the way. We would totally do that. But because we just saw that instant improvement after we would dose, that just really gave us the confidence that so far, so good. But of course, we always have that in the back of our mind that we would do that … head to the emergency room.
Paola: One little side note that I thought was really interesting about this experience is — you kind of said it earlier, but I want to make sure the listeners catch this — is your daughter is a little bit prone to being Gelsemium-ish with anxiety a little bit here and there. That was interesting that when she had the carbon monoxide poisoning that it was the remedy that she needed. You know what I mean? That doesn’t always happen but it’s kind of interesting that we pick up on these little patterns with our kids as we use homeopathy more and familiarize yourselves with your kid and remedies that help them.
For my son, every time he would get sick with something, I’d look up remedies, look up remedies. Oh, Pulsatilla and then I’d write it down my book. Then six months later, look up remedies for this new illness, oh Pulsatilla. It seems to always be Pulsatilla for him.
Paola: Yes, exactly. That’s exactly the time to say, “Yes, this remedy historically has been great for her.” That helps confirm things, if you work through the case.
Paola: Not that I wouldn’t use any other remedies other than Pulsatilla on my son obviously or a protocol or whatever. But it’s just an interesting familiarity and intimacy used for gaining with your kids and the remedies.
Paola: Tell us another survivalist one that you wanted to share.
Shannon: So, this actually happened before the carbon monoxide episode. We were fixing up a little house. My youngest daughter, 10, was helping us out. She came inside and again, here I was in the kitchen, busy, busy making lunch. She goes, “Mom, a nail poked my hand.” I go, “Oh! Okay well, go wash it and stick some tea tree on it.” Because I was just busy, I was not thinking. So later, I kicked myself here. Shoot. Live and learn. That night she’s like, “My hand hurts, mom.” Here, the site on her hand is it’s hot. It’s red. It’s hard. There’s a very faint line but very faint. I’m like, “Oh no. Really?” I should have known better. I kind of see — I don’t know — is it dirt, rust? Who knows? I go grab my book, the Survivalist syllabus here and looked up puncture wounds. In the back of my mind, I was thinking Ledum. But what matched up to her symptoms is Apis just like a bee sting. It was hot, hard, and red. So, I went, “Well, it matches.” I dosed her with that. Again, it was really neat to watch. I actually could feel the heat go down.
Paola: Did you use a 200 or a 30 just because I’m curious.
Shannon: I used a 200. I thought it was enough of an emergency. I was like hey, let’s just go for it. We actually watched the swelling go down, the heat go down, the little redness go down. That’s when I knew how to dose her. So, probably about four doses about 15 minutes apart and then I could lessen them. Again, Dad’s on the couch. We’re watching it. We’re looking at each other, emergency room or not?
Paola: Looking it up again.
Shannon: Exactly. This time it was late at night, of course. But just to watch those symptoms go down was so neat. It’s such a blessing to confirm we were on the right path. We had chosen the right remedy and went down. She went to sleep. I checked her in the morning. Probably gave her one more dose and we’re good. I was just like unbelievable. I mean it is believable but it’s just so neat to watch it work.
Paola: Yes. It is unbelievable because no matter, it’s not an issue of whether or not I believe in homeopathy, because I do. It’s just it never ceases to amaze you.
Paola: It’s always just so wonderful. I think of like, Mother Theresa. Every time I read a quote from her or something from her life experience, it just never ceases to amaze me how special she was. It is similar with homeopathy.
Paola: It keeps impressing me. I love those stories. I’m glad everybody turned out okay. I’m glad that you got your money’s worth of the Survivalist Guide.
Shannon: But having these experiences as a mom — no, we don’t want our kids to get hurt — but talk about the information, and just being able to share with people if they have this. I just feel like those experiences were great. I gained more confidence, more information for that. I always write things down, make notes.
Paola: Yes, it’s true. If I was at home listening to you tell the story, I would feel like, “Oh my gosh. I could never do that.” But here’s the thing. One day you’ll wake up and the situation smacks you in the face. You’re going to have to deal with it.
Paola: If you’re prepared, you do.
Shannon: Yes. On a side note, with the carbon monoxide poisoning, it was pretty stressful as a mom. So, I grabbed my bottle of Ignatia. Take that for stress for mom.
Paola: Good for you. I know. Think clearly please.
Paola: Very good. New topic, you were telling me that you’ve also had some hip trouble for yourself, right?
Paola: I think it somehow affected the knee or you tell me about it.
Shannon: Well, it probably started a year and a half ago with chiropractor adjustment. So, new thing for me, never really had trouble with that. Probably seven pregnancies, probably getting older. Who knows? But what it would do when it would come out, it would twist my leg to where my knee would be twisted out of alignment as well. The knee just swelled up like crazy. There was just a lot of pain. It just prevented me from even sleeping.
Paola: That’s interesting. It’s like the hip being out had a domino effect and impacted the knee?
Shannon: It was awful. That took away a lot of the pain and the swelling. So, at least I could make it the next few days and get home and then get to the chiropractor.
Shannon: But this kept happening. I thought, “Gosh, I don’t want to live for having to go to the chiropractor all the time. I love the chiropractor but I don’t want to go every week. I travel. I don’t want to rely on that. I checked in with the chiropractor. Can you give me some strengthening exercises and what not? Well, I happened to be on an end of a consult with Joette. I just mentioned. I said, “Joette, there’s got to be something to help this.” So, she suggested Rhus tox 1M. I’m like, “Oh, okay.” I could tell when it would start to come out of alignment. There’d be a lot of pain, kind of burning pain in the hip.
Paola: Interesting. So, tell me, what was the frequency you were having to go in for adjustments? Was it like once a week or what?
Shannon: So when it would come out, I’d probably have to go two to three times just get it to calm down because everything was just all kind of mad and twisted up and angry. It just needed to kind of relax. Then of course, I’d probably overwork it or do something. Then I have to go back in in another couple of weeks and then have two or three appointments.
Paola: Oh wow. So, it was two or three appointments.
Paola: Then there’s a three-week break then two or three more appointments. That’s kind of a lot.
Shannon: Yes, exactly. So, I thought “Well, I can’t do this.” There’s got to be something, right? So Rhus tox was and is amazing. I’ll start to, usually at the end of the day, feel the pain. I take that at night right before bed, one dose, one little pill, and gone. It has lengthened the chiropractor appointments to six months in between. So, it has kept it in alignment. That was just huge for me. So, it was just amazing.
Paola: So, it’s not that the chiropractor didn’t need to do the adjustments. It’s like it helped glue it in place to last longer. That’s amazing.
Shannon: Exactly. So, I don’t know how it does it but it works.
Paola: Yes. I have to tell the listeners, Rhus tox 1M is not something that you should just willy-nilly use. This is a pretty significant situation with the swelling and the frequency of it.
Shannon: Yes. I don’t think I would have even thought that had not Joette told me how to do it.
Paola: Maybe you would have done like a 30 or 200 or something.
Paola: And you checked the materia medica, it was better from heat, better from movement, worse from overuse which is very Rhus tox.
Shannon: Yes. That just again, using the materia medica just confirmed that we’re on the right track. With any remedy, I always like to look that up and just confirm, if you have time. Obviously, for emergency or first aid, you may not have time but I love that for that reason.
Paola: Exactly, very good. Those are some pretty awesome experiences. You definitely have moxie, I’ve decided.
Paola: You’re welcome. You’ve earned it, girl. That is just so wonderful. Then just do you have any closing thoughts for people who might be new to homeopathy or what you wish you would have known at the beginning of your journey?
Shannon: Yes. I really wished I had known about homeopathy from the beginning. I feel like a lot of us take this — maybe not for everybody, but a lot of us — take this journey of … we try everything else and our last resort is homeopathy. I would just encourage everybody if you’re new, try it first. As moms, there is just so much confidence just being able to raise your kids without drugs and running to the pediatrician. There’s a good place for that, for sure. But it really has just empowered me as a mom. I mean, Joette says that all the time. I just love that. It’s a hobby for me, learning about it. I just want to know as much as possible. I want to be able to pass it down to my girls and even my boys. I got a boy going to Mexico on a mission’s trip. He’s like “Mom, tell me what I gotta take.” I love that.
Paola: Absolutely. I think that’s really good advice. Try this first. You’re right. It does. It literally makes you a better mother because the skills you need in homeopathy, listening, observing, caring — those are things that we can always hone as moms.
Paola: Very good. Well, thank you for joining us Shannon. It has been delightful. I love your peppy personality and your passion for homeopathy. I really think that this podcast is going to help a lot of people. So, thanks for taking the time out to be with me.
Shannon: Oh yes, thank you, Paola.
If you’d like to learn more about Shannon’s favorite course, The Survivalist Guide to Homeopathy, please click here. As she mentioned in the podcast, it paid for itself by allowing her to avoid two emergency room visits. It is, indeed, a valuable and practical course for moms to have at the center of their first aid arsenal.

I’ve written about each of these subjects on this blog with specifics. Just use the search bar. Use the word “fatigue” instead of adrenal fatigue and for emotions, use the word “anxiety” or “grief”.
It would sure be nice to find another “like minded” person up here in Northern California. Shannon, I finally feel so not alone. I would love to meet you and talk. I have used homeopathy for just about everything at this point. If you have friends that are also using homeopathy and they haven’t taken many of the classes. I have a couple people who are interested. We could get a group discount.
I would like to! I’ve done that a few times with friends and it’s been wonderful! However, I live Central Cali!
I live in northern CA, a few miles from Shannon, and have always had the utmost respect for her passion for learning and joyfully sharing natural ways to grow healthy families. She and her entire family are precious and amazing. If you form a group, let me know. I am ready to start getting deeper into the subject.

He serves on board at Technical College of the Lowcountry and Beaufort-Jasper Academy for Career Excellence. He was a past member of the town's Redevelopment Commission, the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce's board of directors and the city of Beaufort's Design Review Board.
In preparation for a possible council run, he spoke with town manager Van Willis and council members about what the job entailed. He talked with mentors, his dad and his boss at The Greenery, where Ashmore is the director of workforce development.
Ashmore interpreted the positive responses as a green light.
He enlisted the help of Ethan Kindwall, who does marketing for a local screenprinting company, and learned to use social media.
The campaign included the usual door-to-door stops, church visits and events. On weekends, Ashmore walked the town and introduced himself to strangers.
He shared the view of other candidates about the need to develop the Port of Port Royal property and to monitor that development closely.
He also touted his business experience and pointed to the agricultural certificate program he helped start at Technical College of the Lowcountry as something he hopes can serve as an economic driver in the area.
As Ashmore waited for results to be posted on the glass doors of Town Hall on Tuesday night, he learned some unrelated news: His alma mater, Clemson, had debuted at No. 1 in the initial College Football Playoff Ranking. Coupled with his Carolina Panthers' winning in overtime in Monday Night Football to remain undefeated, the ensuing election news and celebratory oyster roast with family and supporters, Ashmore was enjoying a pretty good week.
"First, I want to thank all the residents of Port Royal for coming out and voting in this election and supporting me," a weary Ashmore said Tuesday night. "Second off, it's time to start working and continuing to build the future of Port Royal."
Port Royal's voter turnout was uncharacteristically high Tuesday, spurred by competition in both the mayoral and town council races.
Of Port Royal's 4,244 registered voters, 12.4 percent participated in Tuesday's election. The town's elections typically draw about 10 percent turnout, Beaufort County Board of Elections and Registration director Marie Smalls said.
The high turnout was especially notable since it came in a year without a big-ticket office -- such as governor or president -- on the ballot, Smalls said.
She said Port Royal experienced issues with people who live outside the town limits who were not eligible to vote being turned away at the polls. That was also an issue in Bluffton's municipal election.
"People don't always know where the boundaries are," Smalls said. "All they know is they consider themselves a Port Royal resident."

The first travel story in 2017 is about bird watching in a little village in Odisha – Mangalajodi on the banks of Chilika Lake where poachers have turned conservationists.
I almost lost my way looking for a tiny little hamlet on the banks of the Chilika Lake in Odisha, Asia’s largest brackish lagoon. But I wondered how the 100 species of birds who call Mangalajodi their winter home find their way to this ecological hot spot every year. Did they have a map in their tiny brains which helped them reach this village from various corners of the world ?
I am told that the birds come all the way from Russia and Mongolia. Migrating to the Chilika lake are several water birds who call the Caspian Sea their home. Some have come from the colder climes of Ladakh to make Mangalajodi their winter home. And they find this destination year after year. I lost my way and spent almost two hours to get here from Puri but these birds do not seem to forget the route even if it takes them days to get here.
It was a hot and dry afternoon with a little in the nip in the air. There were hardly any tourists around, but for another bird photographer. I realized that the birds had probably discovered this village long before the tourists, which was probably why there were just three boats on the freshwater swamp. Looking around, I saw Open Billed Storks on the backwaters of Chilika lake.
Looking like specks in the horizon, there were thousands of open billed storks on the fields near the rivulets. And then I saw a swarm of Black Tailed Godwits and it seemed like a dark cloud moving towards me.
I got into a small sail boat with a naturalist and we slowly started sailing, stopping near the reeds to spot some birds. In the silhouette, lit by the evening light were Black Winged Stilts, standing and staring as if they were ruminating about something. They looked very pretty in the light with their pretty pink legs reflecting in the waters.
We sailed a bit closer and spotted yellow wattled lapwings emerging out from the reeds. In a few minutes, we were surrounded by Wetland Birds at Chilika Lake. There did not seem to mind our company as they occasionally stopped their activity just to glance at us .
The freshwater swamp slowly branched out into a network of canals and we picked one of them. And in a moment, we were surronded by a huge flock of black tailed godwits, foraging for food in the water. Some of them looked up to greet us while others buried their heads while their beaks were immersed in the waters.
Birdwatching may be fun but it is not all that relaxing and soothing an experience. It is rather demanding and almost every moment of your attention is engaged in observing a bird and its behaviour. My naturalist pointed to the right showing us a flock of Glossy Ibis and even before I could focus my binoculars on them, he silently pointed to our left where we saw the “Chilika Chicken” or the Purple Moorhens by the dozen.
All of a sudden we craned our necks to sight a few ducks. A Northern Shoveler was above our head, while the elusive Brahminy Shelduck was right in front of us, rushing into the reeds. It was a constant battle between our reflexes and theirs and they seemed always quicker than us.
We continued cruising through the innumerable narrow channels – my boatman told me that there were at least 30 of them. Our agenda was to see huge flocks of Northern Pintail than had almost occupied an entire channel.
Our boat was right behind them and they did not mind us following them around; occasionally a few would fly away to give us way but they would soon join the flock. Some Whiskered Terns gave us company while the noisy Asian Pied Starling kept hopping about the reeds.
Different species of egrets ignored us as we sailed past, while the Bronze Winged Jacana looked really pretty in its colourful coat of feathers.
However Mangalajodi has an another story to tell. It had not always been a safe haven for the migratory birds. Having flown massive distances, these birds were blissfully unaware of the dangers lurking around in the form of poachers. Until a few years ago, some of these birds were mercilessly killed virtually every year and sadly, poisoned in the death of the night.
It took a few wildlife enthusiasts and bird watchers led by Nandakishore Bhujabal who formed an organisation called Wild Orissa to create the change in the minds of the poachers. Some of them joined forces with the organisation and the predators eventually became protectors.
I heard that my boatman and guide were once poachers as well but today, they were changed men. They proudly showed me around the habitat and were protecting the birds. They are part of the organisation called the Sri Mahavir Pakshi Suraksha Samiti and are supported by several wildlife, tourism, developmental and government groups to organise birding trips and to protect these birds and to promote eco tourism.
The wetlands at Mangalajodi are watched over by these very men who used to stealthily hover around here at one time to poach the birds. I spent an entire afternoon with these men , listening to their stories and was touched by the passion with which they spoke about their village and the birds.
The guides may not know all the names of the birds and they may struggle to get the English pronunciation right, but their heart is in the right place. Finally we waited to see the sun set . As the golden glow spread over the entire horizon in Mangalajodi and the boats were anchored, I left the little village feeling secure that the birds had indeed found a safe home in India.
Mangalajodi is in the northern end of Chilika Lake and is in Khorda District . It is 67 kms from Bhubaneshwar and 72 kms from Puri by road.
Mangalajodi is first on my list of offbeat places to visit in India. Watch this video to see which are the others.
Loved the post and the pictures!!!I am from Orissa a state called Rourkela. Good to see tourism coverage for Orissa.
A complete relaxation that comes with traveling…..bird-watching turns more beautiful when the venue and the weather of the travel destination is a place like Chilka!
Hi Ms Lakshmi , I am from Bangalore currently traveling odisha,i am in Puri now, I read your review of Mangalajodi Ecotourism, what would be the approx cost for 1 night?

Intevacon has long understood t he value of a fleet card, and we are always excited to see our customers grow their fleet business and profit after adopting our system (see our favorite case studies here).
A recent Oil Express article further corroborated the value of fleet card accounts in its article titled “What a fleet card account is worth” (Vol. XXXVIII, Issue No 15). This article details how Sunoco is expanding its fleet card business by going after house accounts, noting that the top industries for fleet are lawn and garden, electrical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, pest control, construction, roofing and freight transportation. Sunoco also suggests that retailers should provide discounts to their commercial accounts as a further means of gaining loyalty. Courting these fleet customers is well worth the effort—according to the Oil Express article, the sale volume generated by one new fleet customer is typically equal to that of 13 consumer customers. The article further expounds on the average number of gallons of fuel purchased on the fleet card, as well as the additional dollars that are spent inside the convenience store.
Intevacon’s petroleum marketers have always understood that house accounts are a valuable way to conduct business. While many of our customers do offer discounts to their fleet customers, this is not necessarily the norm. Many times, the relationship and extended credit between the petroleum marketer and his customer is enough to foster loyalty. The average fleet card transaction dollar value is higher than the average consumer transaction dollar value (13x more valuable according to Sunoco above). In addition, petroleum marketers using Intevacon save their margins by eliminating the transaction fee associated with traditional credit cards.
Last year was a good year for the convenience store industry. NACS released their 2014 industry statistics this week, and petroleum marketers ought to be feeling pretty good with the results. According to NACS, industry sales in 2014 reached $697.5 billion dollars with a record in-store sale total of $214.9 billion (a 4.6% increase from 2013). Gasoline prices were reported to be 4% lower in 2014 than the previous year, but the industry still saw an increase of 18.8% in fuel margins this year. This equated to an average of 22.2 cents per gallon in 2014 compared to 18.7 cents per gallon in 2013. With all of this growth, there is also opportunity for petroleum marketers to grow their lucrative house accounts and continue with positive growth into 2015. And there is no reason to give your profits away to the credit card companies and banks. Another article posted by NACS cites that the industry’s pre-tax profits of 10.4 billion dollars amounted to 1 billion dollars less than what the industry paid in credit card fees. With Intevacon, interchange fees are eliminated, and perhaps even more valuable for your fleet accounts, you are able to maintain a relationship with your customers.

We are expanding our team and are looking for a Sales Team Lead to join our Manila Team.
As the Sales Team Lead, you’ll be the liaison between the upper management and sales team. You’ll be responsible for managing a team and oversee performance and service quality to guarantee customer satisfaction. You’ll also ensure the quality of calls is carried out consistently and accurately based on the standards set by the management.
Amazon (and e-commerce in general) have completely disrupted the "last mile" — from ordering products easily to getting those products delivered to your door. But the "first mile" in the supply chain, where the product is actually produced, hasn’t changed in over a hundred years. In spite of that, its value of this market is immense and only keeps growing. Fashion / apparel manufacturing alone is a $1.2 trillion industry.
We've built an on-demand manufacturing platform (manufacturing-as-a-service) that meets the needs of the 21st century economy. We bootstrapped our way to a $15M run rate and just closed a $10M Series A with a top-tier Silicon Valley VC. We believe we can create enormous value and literally change the world by making fast-turn, low volume manufacturing accessible to everyone.

This was said of Christ and had reference to the miraculous inspiring power of the Holy Spirit that was to take place at the introduction of Christianity, which was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost and at the house of Cornelius. The apostles and the people at the house of Cornelius are the only ones ever baptized in the Holy Spirit, so far as the New Testament records. Others received gifts of the Spirit, but these are never called a “baptism of the Spirit.” None have been thus baptized in the Holy Spirit since that, so far as anybody knows.
The baptism of fire spoken of in the passage referred to was not connected with, nor was it any part of, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but means the unquenchable fire of eternal ruin, as is plainly shown in verse 12, when all the wicked shall be cast off into eternal punishment. For anyone to claim that the Spirit is poured out on anyone now as it was on the day of Pentecost only shows to what extremes error will lead people. To say the apostles made a mistake in baptizing people in water is to destroy, to set aside, the Holy Spirit and his teaching in the whole New Testament; for the Holy Spirit guided the apostles in teaching people to be baptized in water. Such a claim is based purely upon error, upon the false claim that anyone receives any sort of spiritual endowment now. It proves itself false by setting the word of God through the apostles at naught.

One of my favorite things about Tanzania is the people. They are so welcoming. I’ll never forget the first day of school when all of the teachers welcomed us into their school right away, even though they didn’t have a clue of who we are. Now, they consider us a part of their family. It’s just so amazing having people who care so much. Even on the weekend excursions, we were welcomed into the people’s homes with hugs and smiles. Even on the street, you say hi to everyone. It’s so much different than back at home, where it’s considered weird to say hi and have a conversation with all the random people you see. I love how welcoming everyone is, but most of all, I love how happy the people are. I don’t think I’ve ever been as happy as I have been in the past month. At the end of the day, every day, I think about what a great day I’ve had and how much I look forward to the next one. It’s like their happiness is contagious.
Something I’m especially going to take away fromTanzaniais “hamna shida”. Even when things aren’t going as well as you’d like, it’s not the end of the world. Something bad happens – “hamna shida”. That’s what we always say, especially at school. No one stresses over the little things that don’t really matter. I think it will be good to remember when I go home, back to a whole different life style… No more pole pole. Everything is go go go. I’d like to slow it down a little bit, and try to be as positive as I can.
The way they use resources here is awesome too. When we went to Shanga, they could do so much using a ton of recycled wine bottles, and made machines out of broken machine parts. It was just so cool.
This kind of goes back to how much I love the people, but I will never forget Sekei. That school is so amazing. I can’t believe how quickly we came to love it, and become so close to the teachers and students. It is going to be so hard to say goodbye to all of them. I’m going to miss the school so much. The teachers, the students, and the overall atmosphere. Most of the kids are just so motivated to learn, and they enjoy learning. You don’t hear the students complaining about how “stupid” subjects are or how they don’t want to be at school. Students WANT to be at school, and that itself is just a beautiful thing.

“Sometimes I go to a restaurant and I don’t even know what I’m ordering,” Liu said.
He took all of the photos in the Bistrozine menu himself. There’s one for almost every item, so that when somebody mentions fried mac and cheese breaded with Cheeto crumbs or a lighter variation on the traditional BLT, you’ll have some frame of reference for what you’ll be putting into your mouth.
Photos document the savory (popcorn chicken) all the way up through the sweet (chocolate mocha lava cake) plus an assortment of teas. Liu spent years getting them all in order.

Julian Kreeger, a great friend of the law school and one of our super Adjunct Professors, is profiled in South Florida Classical Review's Julian Kreeger marks a quarter-century of bringing the finest chamber music to Miami.
Julian and his wife, Judith Kreeger, a leading Circuit Court judge, have more records (LPs, not CDs) in their home than I have ever seen outside a record store. The article says they have 25,000, and I believe it.
Although the music world places a premium on great performers, Kreeger is one of the world’s great listeners.
He's also a really nice guy.
Laurence H. Tribe is the Carl M. Loeb University Professor at Harvard Law School. He is widely recognized as a liberal scholar of constitutional law and a practitioner before the U.S. Supreme Court. He clerked for Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart from 1967-1968 and became an assistant professor of law at Harvard in 1968, where has taught ever since. He is the author of American Constitutional Law (1978), a treatise in that field, and has argued before the Supreme Court more than 30 times. He taught President Obama at Harvard Law School. He is currently on leave from Harvard to fulfill his new duties as senior counselor for access to justice at the U.S. Justice Department. In that position, Tribe will develop ways to improve legal services for the poor, find alternatives to court-intensive litigation, and strengthen the fairness and independence of domestic courts. He will receive an honorary Doctor of Laws and will speak to graduates at the School of Law commencement exercise on Sunday, May 16 at 2 p.m..
I went to the bank today to deposit, among other things, a $5 rebate check for a piece of computer gear purchased before my illness. The check said on its front that it was “Not Valid Unless Cashed Before April 28, 2010”. Today is April 27, 2010. The teller refused to accept the check. “It says April 28. I can't accept it before that date. Come back tomorrow.” Of course, had I done so, the check would have been invalid. I protested that the words “not valid unless cashed before” had some relevance here. The teller was adamant: the check couldn't be cashed until tomorrow. I was adamant too: the check would be worthless tomorrow.
I was invited to go sign in at the front desk and cool my heels in some other queue for an indefinite period of time until the manager (“he's busy with someone right now”) might deign to speak with me to resolve the issue. I refused and suggested I would stay put in front of the teller until the manager arrived. The teller went to see her non-manager supervisor. Amazingly, the supervisor agreed the check couldn't be cashed without the branch manager's OK. I stood there. Eventually, the teller found the manager, who never appeared to speak to me, and announced that since it was only $5 they would do me the great favor of taking the check.
Short Citibank now? Or is it a good business model for them to alienate customers who bother them by depositing pesky $5 checks?
According to Walk Jog Run my current figure-eight walk around my block and the one north of me totals 0.87 miles, which seems significantly more than I would have guessed. Anyway on a good day I do that route in about 30 minutes, which given my condition would be very good for .87 miles, and isn't bad for the .6 or so I thought it really was.
Is Walk Jog Run (which is based on Google Maps) reliable for short distances? I could imagine an evil business model based on making runners feel good by making them think they were going farther then they really were….

For the last few months I have been performing rather well on the online felts and have also posted several scores on premier sites such as PokerBaazi and PokerStars India.
Earlier this week, I had participated in the EPT Sochi NLHE Main Event Qualifier Satellite on PokerStars India. I was actually playing the satty for a second time. In fact, I had almost forgotten about it and it was my flatmate ‘England’ aka Jayjit Ray who actually reminded me of the same . I managed to late register and maintained a decent stack through the tournament.
During the final two tables , I lost a big pot and became the shortest stack. But I did not lose hope but somehow fought my way into the final table with just 9 big blinds.
Thereafter, I kept winning flips and waltzed into the heads-up play against Pranay ‘AankhDikhatahai’ Chawla with a 3.5:1 chip lead. I tried to implement all that I have learnt from my mentor Adi [Aditya Agarwal] in the last 7-8 months into play. All the guidance that I received from him helped me build up my chip lead against Chawla and some much-needed luck did not hurt either.
I got really lucky on the final hand when my 66 were up against Chawla’s pocket TT. Both of us went all-in preflop where I clipped a 6 on the river and shipped the event.
It was an amazing feeling! The package I won not only included an entry to the EPT Sochi Main Event, but also offered a seven-nights accommodation for two at the Sochi Marriott Krasnaya Polyana hotel and up to ₹40,000 for other expenses. I am really excited and am looking forward to my first international poker tour.
To be honest, once the daze of victory had subsided the next morning, I really got thinking and realised that only by posting a good score in Sochi will I actually be able to make this profitable in a real sense. Since then I have doubled down on studying and I have been taking regular instructions from Adi to improve my game.
Speaking of Adi, his guidance has been of immense help to me. I have no words to describe what an incredible learning experience it has been.
PG has been covering Poker very effectively across India. Godspeed..
PokerGuru is by far the best site for poker updates all over the world..

Fort McNair Red Horsechestnut features bold spikes of pink flowers with yellow eyes rising above the foliage in mid spring. It has dark green foliage which emerges light green in spring. The palmate leaves turn yellow in fall. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. However, the fruit can be messy in the landscape and may require occasional clean-up.
Fort McNair Red Horsechestnut is a dense deciduous tree with a more or less rounded form. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other landscape plants with finer foliage.
Fort McNair Red Horsechestnut will grow to be about 50 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 45 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 4 feet from the ground, and should not be planted underneath power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 60 years or more.

Manufacturing and quality engineers looking for solutions to process challenges will have an additional resource for answers with the new Process Defect Clinic at the IPC APEX EXPO conference and exhibition, April 12–14, 2011, in Las Vegas. Sponsored by IPC and the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), the free clinic will be held in booth 217 on the show floor to assist event attendees with assembly and soldering process problems, RoHS compliance issues, solderability concerns, field failures and other process-related issues. IPC APEX EXPO registrants can bring board assemblies for examination or process problems for discussion and walk away with solutions.
“Some managers are too quick to attribute defects to a particular process,” says industry guru Bob Willis who, with the assistance of inspection equipment on hand at IPC APEX EXPO, will assist visitors in understanding their process problems and offer guidance and suggested solutions. “People are always pleased if the defects suddenly go away, however those defects will return if you don’t find the true cause of failure. If you can turn a defect on and off — then voilà — you know you’ve found the real culprit.” Willis will present awards to the individuals with the best questions and defects at IPC APEX EXPO.
In a recent IPC/NPL lead-free process defect webinar led by Willis, more than 380 engineers from 25 countries identified their most critical areas of process failures. Paste printing was a clear leader, identified by more than a quarter of the participants. Reflow soldering was a close second. The webinar can be viewed online at no charge at http://www.IPCAPEXEXPO.org/defect-clinic.
Registrants of IPC APEX EXPO 2011 can make appointments with the NPL Process Defect Clinic at http://www.IPCAPEXEXPO.org/my-show or visit the clinic during show hours. In addition, questions can be submitted in advance by e-mail to processdefectclinic@ipc.org.
The clinic and the webinar are part of a cooperative agreement between IPC and NPL to promote the free NPL Process Defect Database. “The database is a very useful resource for engineers worldwide. It can only get better as more defects are added to the library,” explains Dr. Christopher Hunt, principal research scientist at NPL.
Thanks for your sharing.It helps me a lot.
Wow, these helpful info benefit me a lot. Great thanks to you.

Thoughts engender healing, while a lot of thought component is not within our reach to handle and create. Thoughts owe their existence to opportunities, which are endless in time and space. Thoughts can be formed from telepathic interactions and other means of soul communication between beings. Karma, the deeds and their nature, contributes to thoughts in a very significant way. Thoughts can be understood as multidimensional energy beings with a life of their own. They last for the time they are meant to last for, and this is also determined by the truthfulness, the purity of intent and associated feelings that travels with them.
Thoughts are a means of communication just like any other, like talking, writing, or using gestures. Those who attain spiritual awareness, after having worked for several years meditating, and following their soul path, tend to be able to observe and manage their thoughts very carefully, since they are aware of the potential the thought can have, and the manifestation, the thought is capable of bringing about. Thoughts can also relate to our past, derive from our incomplete actions, and the clairvoyance capability of the person. At any given time, the thoughts in the mind can help determine the voids in the past, and the incomplete actions, the energy patterns that continue to exist in a person’s energy body, and hence from this opportunity, can be determined the path the person is likely to take in the future, and the actions, she or he might perform to balance energy arising from the incoming thoughts.
Actions are a level next after thoughts or rather above thoughts. They are more tangible, more concrete, stronger as entities, and hence more irreversible so to say. Actions have to be managed and monitored more carefully than thoughts, since they are likely to have higher impact in generating karmic influence, and manifestation. There is an element of ‘irreversible-ness’ in thoughts, but less in actions, since actions are kind of thoughts implemented, or thoughts ‘acted upon’. So a lot more care is needed in dealing with one’s and other people’s actions.
It is interesting to have discovered how health situations can relate to our thoughts and actions. According to the studies in the spiritual sciences, we are much beyond and much more than a mere physical body. The physical body is at the lowest vibration, next comes the etheric body which is like the life energy to the physical body. And we also have an astral body, mind body and the causal body. Astral body is the energy body, where we can perform energy healing. Mind body transcends time and space, and participates in telepathic communication. Causal body relates to past karmas, memories, and soul level vibrations.
Healing can happen at all levels and this is determined by the techniques used for healing. Sometimes, the ailment begins on a body other than the physical body and it takes its own time to affect the physical body or be seen at the physical level. While treatment and healing is important to be done at the physical level, it is also necessary to try and get to the root cause of the ailment by working on other bodies of the individual. And then there is a possibility of healing the ailment at the root level to never allow it to surface again at the physical level.
Yoga creates a circuit, a path for the inner energy to flow freely, and in the right manner so as to engender healing, and one of the goals of healing is the unification of conscious mind with the super consciousness, or the universal mind. Hence the name Yoga, or the union, as it interprets in Sanskrit language. Yoga can be practised as a set of defined physical postures, for energy balancing, and it also refers to the techniques of meditation, pranayama, sound healing, and several healing techniques. It essentially refers to the method of unification of mind with the higher mind, and the method can be physical postures, or mediation, or energy work. The end result is the same, unification.
Feelings can play a pivotal role in healing process and experiencing life as a whole. While the feelings of anger, jealousy, hatred, each carry a different message, they are coded for their own purpose, in the human system of body and mind. On the other hand, feelings of love, affection, and care provide solace, and contentment to the mind and the soul. Emotional Intelligence is the key behind handling feelings, as they contribute a lot to the healing process, in empowering the healing process, and making it work better based on the intent associated. The world we see with closed eyes is as real as the world we encounter with open eyes.
There exists a lot of universe beyond the five senses that we use quite often to deal with the world, and essentially with ourselves. Yoga, meditation and healing provide a path, and means to visit that part of the real world with comfort and ease, without any doubts or questions. Understanding both these worlds, and interpreting them instinctively and intuiting can lead to increased life awareness and handling of life events better. The places of worship have a healing energy associated with them, they almost become like the energy base centres or healing centres and whoever comes in the vicinity of these centres, gets the benefit if she or he is ready for it, and believes in it. Belief and Faith, help remove blocks in the pathways of healing, that of the mind, body or soul.
The process of healing is so multi-dimensional, and nature has provided us with so much support and means to help us find one of the many of healing methods. If followed sincerely and religiously, one or more of the ways can be sufficient for complete healing of the being, while it depends on the Karma of the entities associated, and how deep rooted the ailment is. But what spiritual sciences say is that all can be healed, and there is nothing that cannot be. Love as energy is one of the greatest ways of healing the self as well as others. The purer the love, the more power it has, as long as it is unconditional and given without any expectations in return. Blessings have power too, and yet one who gives or receives blessings has to be sure there are no conditions or expectations associated, which if exist, might lead to creating Karma which will take it course of time and space to be cleared.
Karma is generated every fraction of a second, if we were to measure it against time, but then it runs on many other dimensions and not just time. Time is just one of the factors. Spiritualists aim to get ‘Karma Free’ and also try their best not to generate Karma, or rather Bad Karma, if you will. Buddha sat under a tree meditating for years and years, to attain Nirvana, moving towards Moksha, seeking freedom from life and death. Enlightenment, if interpreted as white light, appears to be a matrix of energies, emanating and moving towards light where light is the source and light, the destination. And we often end up saying, “Love and Light”, as being part of healing session for self as well as others. In light, all identities disappear, all personalities disappear, and its soul and energy that remains.
Healing is an ongoing process, while it works on chronic energy patterns within the system; it also works on the day to day energy interactions, and hence works on past, present, and thus the future. It is beyond time and space, and should preferably be done without any constraints in the mind to make make it whole and complete. Omnipresence, for a soul, is normal and natural. It not only enables presence at multiple places in longitude and latitude but also makes possible interaction with entities at multiple places, in order for soul completion to continue to happen, gradually or sometimes rapidly moving towards its objective of achieving salvation or freedom. Every relationship is created by spiritual laws of attraction, and it lives till the interaction is whole and complete for highest good. Water causes healing, water can be used as the sole source for healing, and it responds to energy very well.
With Karma and its intricacies understood to some extent, the means to heal are several and the doors to the destination are many. God continues to create several opportunities for the beings to connect with Him for higher guidance and direction enlightenment or soul awakening, He makes His presence felt from time to time, in so many ways, and we tend to address such situations as a ‘co-incidence’ or ‘by change happening’, with nature at its creative best behind the scenes. We are audience to a huge drama, a drama of reality so to say, where God makes us performs and project at the same time. Karmic transactions are created, chain reaction ensues, one thing leads to another, and another to another, and humans limited by their potential to memorize, can trace things back in a limited way, to a limited set of events, happening within limited time and space. And hence then arises the need and opportunity to surrender, listen to the inner self, and connect with the higher guidance, through the process of healing, to be able to see, hear, sense without the interference of the five senses. God then smiles a blessing.

It is another rainy Bank Holiday so have changed my plans. I was going to go get some chuck food then do some weeding……NO, its chucking it down and not with hens. So instead have decided to see how Riach people in the Brighouse area link in with mine from good old Morayshire.
A few minutes after my search began I came across a few people researching the same line and started to verify their work by looking at census returns, BMD entries etc. Well, the good news is, but some would say bad news, is that yes I am related to the Brighouse Riach’s.
A couple of cuppa’s and a very large bowl of strawberries and creme fraiche later I have the family linked in to mine up to and around the second world war.
One of the men born around 1923 triggered the old brain cells and got me thinking. Not a pretty site I might add! Years ago I bought a book giving the names of men and women from the Spenborough area who died in WW2 and who served in that war. There were a few Riach names and they will need further work.
There is however, a James Riach who lived in Brighouse. So, who was James and how does he link into my tree ? James is one of my 6th cousins. He was born in May of 1871 in Bellie, Morayshire, the son of John Riach (1847) and Susan Goulder (1850). John was a Police Constable in the 1881 census and by looking at the places his children were born, he seems to have come south of the border between May of 1871 and 1873 when he and his wife are having children in Fewston. Susan according to the 1911 census wrote she had been married 41 years, given birth to 15 children and 11 of which were alive in 1911. James had died a few years earlier so the entry had been crossed out by the enumerator. Susan had answered the questions asked as there was no note saying that a widow/widower had no need to answer that section. It is good to see those questions answered from a family history point of view.
Back to James, the 1911 census, the good old 1911 census has transcribed his place of birth as Forhibers, but Fochabers can be made out on the original document – it makes you wonder where the census was transcribed. Anyway, James married Ada Louisa MacAulay in the Spring of 1894 in the Halifax Registration District.
James and Ada went on to have 3 children, Blanche, James and John. Ada married William Sutcliffe ; James jnr married Elsie A Norcliffe and John married Doris Jackson and went to Australia after 1939.
On 24 July 1912 James signed papers to put him on the Special Reservists list for the Army. He was found to be 5′ 5″ tall with a 34 ” chest with a 2″ range of expansion. His physical development was ‘good’ and so was his vision He gave his trade as that of Mechanic, employed by J Sharp and living at 35 Birkby St, Wilson Road, Wyke. He declared his age as 34 years. He was given the no. 1442 and served as a Private in the West Riding Regt., Pioneer Corps being struck through and he signed his name in a good clear hand. James on one of the forms gave details of his wife and children, his parents and siblings, including addresses for them all – what a fantastic piece of information.
James embarked from Folkestone on the SS Invicta on 14 April 1915. By 10 July of the same he he was appointed unpaid L/Cpl and just over a month later on 15 August 1915 he was Killed In Action.
On the 14th of January 1916 the War Office, st James’s Park sent a memo to the Officer in charge of the Territorial Force Records, York ref: E/128920/1 (Accounts 4) requesting that the personal property in their possession belonging to No. 1442, Lance Corporal James Riach 1/4 Battalion West Riding Regiment be despatched to Mrs Ada Louisa Riach, 25 Birkly Street, Wilson Road, Wyke, Bradford. The memo also requested that any medals in their possession now or at a later date also be despatched to Mrs Riach.
Ada L Riach was sent on 2 July 1919 a form requesting she complete and return so that the ‘Death Penny’ could be forward to her. Ada on September 25th 1919 signed a receipt for a medal, on January 24th 1921 she signed another receipt for medal awarded to her late husband. Ada was also eligible for a 21/- a week pension for herself and her two children with effect from 28 February 1916.
James served 3 years 52 days in the army and was awarded the 1914 – 1915 Star, The British War Medal and the Victory Medal.
L. Cpl 1442, Riach J, of the West Riding Regiment rests in peace with 47 Officers and Men in Colne Valley Cemetery – 30 of those men are from the West Riding Regiment.
Colne Valley Cemetery is at Beozinge, just north of Ieper on the N369 towards Diksmuide. For most of WW1 Beozinge faced the German front line. The cemetery was begun in July/August of 1915 and was in use until around February of the following year.
Note:- Ada remained in the Bradford area and died in the June Qtr of 1958 aged 86.

During your photo session, I take my time! What does that mean to you? With younger children and infants, a photo session will often take longer than older children and adults who can easily follow instructions. I am always willing to take the extra time needed to capture those moments that you will treasure, especially when your little ones need to take a break, either to feed or play to improve their mood.
A more relaxed photo session.
I know that a more relaxed session is important so everyone can enjoy themselves. I plan to capture both posed and also candid shots, so everyone can spend time just being themselves. Often these candid shots make the most memorable photos. Breaks to recharge are expected and encouraged and help to produce the best sessions.
For photos with a newborn, plain black or white tops are best for mom and dad, since the infant is the star!
For children and adults, avoid logos or clothing that may be too ‘busy’. A splash of color is better. Try to avoid matching outfits. Instead find clothes that compliment each other.
I have a selection of props, but feel free to bring what you think might be appropriate. Headbands, hats, scarves, jewelry and jackets along with some favorite toys are welcome.
Time permitting, within 1-2 days from your session, I will upload a few 'sneak peek' photos to my facebook page “Captured by Nanda photography”. Please feel free to tag yourself in these images and use as profile pictures. Please leave the logo on the picture and also make a note of my website: www.capturedbynanda.com when sharing or posting on social media sites. This helps me to spread my brand as well.
Please be sure to not edit or crop any images when posting them on Facebook or using as your profile picture. Please be sure to not crop out the logo of images posted on Facebook.
Typically, 2-3 weeks after your session, I will email you the link/password to your online gallery. Please feel free to share it with your friends and family who may want see and/or purchase your images.
From the time you place your order, you can expect most printed materials to arrive within 1-3 weeks.
From the gallery, you can share photo’s with friends and select included digital images/prints or order additional digital images/prints. Your personal gallery will be available for one month.
