![]() ![]() Any of these, or just plain old depression, might have sparked this poem. There is a theory that Dickinson, like her nephew Ned, was epileptic she definitely suffered eye trouble and, as we know, she had agoraphobic tendencies. The poem has the trademark up-note ending, so that the reader must guess where the breakdown leads to – the heaven of well-being, or the hell of continued mental anguish. ‘I felt a Funeral, in my Brain’ is one of Dickinson’s most well-known poems on mental health, using some of her favourite metaphors: death and the afterlife. So the abandon of this celebrated Dickinson love poem is not out of place and can be read for what it is: a passionate, exuberant and loving cry from the heart. ‘Wild Nights – Wild Nights’ predates Dickinson’s romance with Lord but she had previous love-objects, like the mysterious ‘Master’ and also sister-in-law Sue, whom she loved ardently, as many Victorian women loved their dearest friends. Dickinson was seen sitting in Lord’s lap and wrote to him (in the third person): ‘I confess that I love him – I rejoice that I love him…’ Lord asked to marry her apparently she refused. ![]() Or perhaps she feared editorial input because she had already been stung.ĭickinson’s posthumous editor and friend, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, worried about including this poem in the 1891 volume of her poetry ‘lest the malignant read into it more than that virgin recluse ever dreamed of putting there.’ Higginson seems very sure of Dickinson’s virginal state but seems to forget that she had a late romance with her father’s friend, Judge Otis Lord. By turning her back on notoriety Dickinson may have been trying to protect her good name. ‘Success is counted sweetest’ brings to mind the four lines of ‘Fame is a Bee’, where Dickinson points out that fame has both song and sting, but also wings. Interestingly, though Dickinson did not seek publication – her father disdained Women of Letters – this poem was published (anonymously) in an anthology called A Masque of Poets. Dickinson is at her aphoristic best in poems like this, where she shines a light on the complexities of human desire. ‘Success is counted sweetest’ is one of Dickinson’s many poems on the subject of fame. There she and her family grew an abundance of produce and flowers all the better for this little tippler. ![]() Luckily the house she chose to sequester herself inside, in the latter part of her life, was set on large grounds. This poem illustrates how intoxicating the natural world was to Dickinson. Here ‘Not all the Frankfort berries’ can be swapped out for ‘Not all the vats upon the Rhine’ we’re still in Germany but with a vastly different image. Dickinson sometimes wrote alternative lines for ‘finished’ poems. While ‘I taste a liquor never brewed –’ illustrates her devotion to rhyme, it also shows her maverick’s disregard for it – she often chose an apt image rather than a full rhyme. In life and in art Emily Dickinson was idiosyncratic – she did not choose the prescribed life of a well to-do woman of her era (marriage etc.) rather she become an outsider. ![]()

![]() These clocks are lower in cost (as little as 50 USD), smaller in size, and can last for about 10 years. Rubidium atomic clocks utilize a glass vapor cell containing Rubidium-87 gas that both emits and absorbs light in reaction to microwave stimulation. ![]() Feedback from the detector is used to fine tune the radio waves and create a consistent flow of oscillating cesium atoms. Cesium atoms pass through radio waves and then into a detector that measures the microwave emissions that occur when the atoms return to their unexcited or ground state. Cesium was used in the first atomic clocks, and is still in use today. Types of Atomic ClocksĪtomic clocks come in several varieties. This energy change or resonance occurs at very consistent and specific frequencies to deliver a level of timekeeping accuracy that’s in a league of its own: Since 1967, the International System of Units (SI) has defined a second as the exact time required for a Cesium-133 atom to oscillate. In an atomic clock, the negative subatomic particles (electrons) that orbit an atom’s nucleus are subjected to a form of radiation, like radio waves, which causes these electrons to move back and forth between energy states. The natural oscillations (or resonant frequency) of atomic particles, which provide the basis for atomic clocks, essentially serve the same purpose as a pendulum - but with far greater accuracy. But pendulums and springs are affected by their physical environment, which introduces variables that make this traditional method for measuring time inherently imprecise. ![]() The functioning of traditional timekeeping devices is based on some measurable, repetitive movement or activity, like the back-and-forth motion of a pendulum. While all clocks tell time, how they do so varies by design. ![]() And it is, give or take a nanosecond, thanks to the precision of atomic clocks. We rely on the countdown to midnight every New Year’s Eve to be 100 percent accurate. ![]() ![]() ![]() Once again, the front of the loom is pressed against my body for sturdiness and ease of beating. My favourite position is sitting in my recliner with my feet up. The loom rests on the edge of the table by placing the horizontal wooden bar against it, and the front of the loom rests at about the bottom of my bra level (sorry, couldn’t think of a better description!) Note the comfortable, high backed chair with additional cushion to keep my back comfy. If I’m using a table to rest the back of the loom on, that position would look something like this: I also like to rest the loom against my body to keep it sturdy, as I find that feels most natural to me. Some inkle weavers will clamp the loom to a table to keep it sturdy but I like to have it close to my body where I can comfortably reach to change sheds and beat. But it’s still important to think about your posture and find the most comfortable ways to weave, especially if you’re going to be at it for a while. One of the bonuses of an inkle loom is that you can take it anywhere. Tip 2- Find a comfortable position in which to weave If you’ve never seen an inkle loom in action, my Youtube series in which we weave a lovely floral band, from start to finish is an excellent place to start: When you are ready to weave, you an either push down on the warp threads to achieve a shed or lift them up to achieve the other shed. In the warping process, you alternate between heddled and unheddled warp threads. There are only two sheds on an inkle loom – up and down. The Woolery have put together a nifty starter’s kit that includes an Inklette, yarn to get you started, and Anne Dixon’s fabulous pattern book. Ashford makes two sizes, the Inkle Loom and the Inklette. If you’re an absolute beginner weaver, an inkle loom is the perfect way to test the waters without making a big investment. Inkle looms are simple devices that won’t take up much space and won’t break the bank either. If you’ve been thinking about starting to weave on an inkle loom, I strongly encourage you to have a go. ![]() Inkle loom weaving is so fun, easy to learn and affordable to begin.

However, as a grizzled old investor I've learnt to ‘trade what I see’ and what I see is little connection of gold stocks values with the price of gold I see breaks in the linkage of the price of gold and its actual availability, and a disconnect of the gold price from the classic ‘inflation trade’ that is meant to be core and sacred. ![]() I read those investment books when I was an infant and I still want to believe.

This umbrella term encompasses issues like itching, pain, vaginal dryness, and urinary problems after menopause. When the body’s estrogen production drops due to the natural aging process, it can cause thinning of the vaginal tissue, leading to what experts call vaginal atrophy. And it's worth noting that breast cancer treatments like chemotherapy may have a similar effect. “The further a woman is into menopause, the higher likelihood of vaginal atrophy being a problem,” Dr. This condition usually flares up during and after menopause. ![]() “If someone has psoriasis all over their body and it looks like psoriasis, I’ll assume it’s the same thing,” Dr. If it seems like a dermatological issue is behind your itchy vulva, doctors will either do a skin biopsy to diagnose it or use plain ol' common sense. This also extends to psoriasis, which can also present with red, scaly, itchy flare-ups. That includes conditions like eczema, which presents with an inflamed breakout that can vary in color from reddish to the same color as your skin or a bit lighter, and which can harden into a scaly appearance if left untreated.

If you find your vagina is constantly irritated after having sex, check out these six ingredients you may want to avoid during the act. Having a latex allergy-in which case, you can switch to polyurethane rubbers-is less common than having your garden-variety inflamed reaction to a chemical in your condoms or lube, Dr. ![]() Whether it’s because of an actual latex allergy or just an irritated reaction to a spermicide, the products you use during sex can lead to itching. Once your doctor determines that you have this infection, they’ll prescribe antibiotics for you to take either orally or vaginally. Ross recommends having a doctor check out any strange vaginal symptoms before assuming you know what's up. Its similar presentation to a yeast infection is one reason why Dr. Beyond that, you can expect discharge that’s gray or grayish white and fishy-smelling. When your vagina's bacterial balance gets thrown out of whack, it can lead to bacterial vaginosis, which can cause rampant itchiness. Genital warts, which are caused by human papillomavirus-the most common STD, which has no cure-can also lead to itching and irritation, as can trichomoniasis, the most common curable STD. They can both also change your discharge, making it look yellow or green. Same goes for chlamydia, a prevalent bacterial infection (particularly in women under 25) and gonorrhea, another bacterial infection that’s especially common in that age range. Herpes, which is very common and can lead to cold sores on the mouth along with sores around the vagina, can cause itching. Sexually transmitted infectionsĪ whole host of STIs can make their presence known with itching (although they don’t always, since many can be asymptomatic), Dr. The less complicated, the better.Īnd if you’re prone to irritation, these guidelines also go for laundry detergents and fabric softeners, which can be too harsh as well, Dr. I cringe when people use the same soap in the shower to clean their underarms that they use for their vagina when they wouldn’t do that with their face.” This doesn’t mean you need to buy a separate wash for your nether regions, but if you’re experiencing irritation, switching to the most gentle, hypoallergenic products you can find is a good idea, Dr. “If you think about your face, it’s a very sensitive skin region,” Dr. ![]() ![]() Never set eggs with the small end upward. This enables the embryo to remain oriented in a proper position for hatching. This is the way eggs naturally settle when placed on their sides. If you do not have an automatic egg turner, the eggs are set in the incubator horizontally with the large end slightly elevated. Just be sure to remove them from the turner and lay them on the floor of the incubator (most come with a wire floor) three days before hatch. If you are using an automatic egg turner, then that will take care of the turning for you. Keep the incubator closed during hatching to maintain proper temperature and humidity. ![]() The embryos are moving into hatching position and need no turning. Do not turn eggs during the last three days before hatching. Many experts say if you can turn them 4-5 times a day it is even better. Follow the instructions above and the further details you will find in your incubator's instruction guide.Įggs must be turned at least 2-3 times daily during the incubation period. Many experts agree that a common cause of poor hatch rates is TOO MUCH humidity during the first part of incubating and NOT ENOUGH during the last three days (the "lock-down" period). This will increase the surface area that is wet, allowing more water to evaporate into the air which increases the humidity. This will not hurt the incubator, though it sure makes it easier to tell if you have enough water!Īnother Tip: Having a hard time getting the humidity high enough? Try placing small sponges inside the incubator. In the Little Giant, this will color the foam. It will change again when the water channel is actually dry. As the water level decreases, you'll notice the color of the water (due to the food coloring) start to darken. Humidity Tip: If you find that you are having a difficult time seeing the water in the channels to know if there is enough water, try this little trick: just add a drop or two of food coloring to the water. Check the water level periodically to ensure they don't dry out. Please note that the humidity in your area will have an impact on how much water you'll need in the incubator to keep it within the correct humidity range. ![]() Follow the instructions that come with the incubators. The Little Giant and Hova-Bator incubators come with simple instructions on how to use the water channels in the floor of the incubator. Keeping an adequate humidity range inside your incubator is quite simple. During the last three days (the "lock-down" period), the humidity level should be increased to between 70-80%. The ideal humidity level for hatching eggs is still being debated among experts, but many agree that it should not fall below 25% or above 60% between setting and three days prior to hatching. Humidity is controlled in order to prevent unnecessary loss of egg moisture. Abrupt warming from 55 degrees to 100 degrees can cause moisture condensation on the egg shell which can lead to disease and reduced hatches. ![]() Allow cool eggs to warm slowly to room temperature before placing in the incubator. Eggs have the best hatch rate when stored for no more than 7 days before beginning to incubate. ![]() ![]() "Violence can be found in the following games: Coalesce, Fisticuffs, Heroes, Ripull Minigames, ROBLOX Dodgeball, Skybound II, Super Check Point and TNT Rush.
