Review: Blue By You by Rachel Gibson

Blue By You: Kasper Pennington and Blue Butler

Blue By You

Purchase on Amazon: Rachel Gibson – Blue By You

Rachel Gibson, the New York Times bestselling author of Crazy On You and Rescue Me, once again shows that there’s nothing quite like a man in uniform!

They say you never forget your first time, but there’s nothing Blue Butler and Kasper Pennington would rather forget than their brief but fiery teenage love affair. Yeah, it was hot while it lasted, but then he went off to join the Marines, leaving Blue in New Orleans. She’s tried to block him from her mind for good, but nothing can really erase the feeling she had when she was with him.

And now he’s got the nerve to return—leaner, meaner, and strong enough to pull her into his arms and kiss her senseless. Blue’s a successful businesswoman now, with no time to figure out what went wrong all those years ago. But Kasper knows she’s the one woman for him … and now he’s got to prove it to her all over again.

Blue By You by Rachel Gibson is another hit in the Rachel Gibson collection. It is no secret, that I adore Rachel Gibson, she is one of my favorite authors because every time I pick up a Rachel Gibson novel, I know I am going to laugh and it’s going to be a heartwarming tale. Blue By You is no exception to this rule. For the first time by Rachel Gibson we are taken to the Louisiana New Orleans area, which I really fell in love with. True to RG style, she gives us a small town that is quirky and fun. The rival families is quite fun and I loved how they joked about their ancestors.

Kasper (loving the name) and Blue had one night together 20 something years ago and now they meet again and the attraction comes back just as strong as it was when they first met. Blue is rightfully pissed about how Kasper hit it and quit it all those years ago, I mean a girl always remembers her first. Kasper is determined to make up for his Houdini act, he is finally ready for the feelings that Blue inspires. He has his work cut out for him, but he is a man determined to get what he wants and he sets out to put in work. I quite enjoyed Blue and her non-conformance attitude; we opened with Blue drinking on her front porch while everyone else was at church. It had my chuckling on the inside. She also doesn’t give into Kasper too quickly; she does make Kasper work a little.

In this novella we flash from the present to the past and back to the present, which for me worked for this book. It gave us the history between Kasper and Blue, which was needed. The past and present plotlines were seamlessly plotted out. There was plenty of humor to keep you chuckling throughout the book. My biggest and really only issue with this book was it was too short; it really needed to be a bit longer for it to really develop. I truly hope that we get more books in this setting. I really enjoyed this setting and hope we get to visit it again.

Review: Feel the Rush by Kelsie Leverich

Hard Feelings Series:

Book 2:

Feel the Rush: Meagan Mitchell and Reed Porter

Feel the Rush

Purchase on Feel the Rush: A Hard Feelings Novel (InterMix)

The New York Times bestselling author of The Valentine’s Arrangement continues her sizzling series with a new novel of a plan that goes awry—in the arms of a soldier…

Picking the wrong men is a talent Meagan Mitchell has perfected. She’s sweet, confident, beautiful—and single. With her thirtieth birthday sneaking up on her, she needs a new plan. No more Mr. Wrongs or Mr. Bads, it’s time to find Mr. Safe…

Army Captain, Reed Porter, lives for the thrill—he’s an Airborne Jumpmaster with a rush addiction. He’s sexy and playful, and he quickly tempts Meagan with his rich Southern drawl and sinful looks. But slowing down and settling down are not in his agenda, making him exactly the type of man Meagan wants to avoid…

As their undeniable attraction heats up, Meagan has to decide if she’s willing to risk everything on a chance at love with a reckless charmer. Is she brave enough to bet her future—and her heart—on Mr. Thrill? Or will Reed finally learn that the feeling of a safe landing is just as addicting as the rush of the fall?

What a great story! I read the first book in the series and really liked it, but I got to say this one was better! I had loved Ronnie’s hard ass attitude but adored Meagan soft heart. We met Meagan in the Valentines Arrangement, she was Kale’s friends with benie’s before he found Ronnie. I wasn’t quite sure what to make of her coming into this book, but I found she was a pleasant surprise. She has a great sense of humor, she’s that kind of quiet one that out of nowhere cracks a smart ass comment and has everyone laughing. That’s almost my favorite kind of humor because you never quite see it coming. Romantically, her dating life has been a disaster. She is coming up on the big 3-0 and always thought she would be married with kids by the time she was 30. To escape a bad dating pattern she picks up and moves when her best friend Eva (who I also loved btw) came up on orders. Only, she falls right into the arms of her very first one night stand, Reed Porter, only its 8 years later and he doesn’t recognize her. This time Meagan is determined to break the pattern and to not sleep with the irresistible Reed. But Reed has other plans for her.

Reed is our adrenaline junky! Meagan nicknamed him Mr. Thrill and it fits. He will do anything for a rush, and right now chasing Meagan is giving him a rush of a lifetime, but he’s not a forever type of guy. Meagan has made it clear what she is looking for, but Reed wants to give it a go anyway. Although Reed comes off as a fun loving guy, he has demons of his own. There is a reason he doesn’t form many lasting attachments. When you lose the other part of your soul it leaves a pretty lasting impact. Reed leads on a fun pursuit of Meagan and it is definitely fun to read, the push and pull between these two strong willed characters is entertaining. I didn’t want to put the book down and when I did I couldn’t wait to pick it back up to see what these two get themselves into next. Ultimately I saw the general outcome coming, yet not. Kelsie Leverich definitely threw a wrench in what I thought was going to happen. I have to admit it brought a tear to my eye and I’m sure it will bring others to a full out ugly cry. But this made me love Meagan and Reed all that much more. Ultimately Reed has to decide if his adrenaline filled lifestyle is worth his happiness whether he thinks he deserves it or not.

This was a fun entertaining ride which was enhanced by the side characters. I loved each and every one of them! And I am looking forward to each and every one of their books! So yeah, Kelsie Leverich, Im going to need you to get on these books ASAP!

Review: Darynda Jones – Fifth Grave Past the Light

Charley Davidson Series:

Book 5:

Fifth Grave Past the Light: Charley Davidson and Reyes

Fifth Grave Past the Light (Charley Davidson, #5)

Purchase on Amazon:  Fifth Grave Past the Light (Charley Davidson Series)

Charley Davidson may not look like your everyday, run-of-the-mill grim reaper, but she has vowed to reap grimness wherever she goes despite this unfortunate fact. Sadly, she gets sidetracked when the sexy, sultry son of Satan, Reyes Farrow, moves in next door. As he is the main suspect in her arson case, she is determined to stay away from him until she can find out the truth. According to her therapist, however, she lacks conviction.

When dead women start appearing in her apartment – lost, confused and terrified beyond reason – Charley has no choice but to ask for Reyes’s help, especially when it becomes apparent that her own sister Gemma is the serial killer’s next target. With his ability to observe incorporeally, surely he can find out who’s responsible. And even if he can’t, he is the one man alive who could protect Gemma no matter who or what came at her. But he wants something in return: Charley. All of her – body and soul. And to keep her sister safe, it is a price she is willing to pay…

Aw… How I love Charley Davidson! Seriously?! What is not to love about this series? The quick sarcastic humor, Charley Kicking ass or not kicking ass, non-stop action, the funny supporting crew and they very sexy mysterious Son of Satan Reyes. This book is another wonderful installment of this series, one my favorites so far. This series as a whole is seriously creeping its way into my top ten list, as it is consistently excellent and wildly entertaining.

In this book Charley gets into her usual trouble. There is a grip of tortured ghost woman haunting her place and she needs to solve the mystery of their deaths. The only questions is why after all these years are they all of they suddenly appearing in her apartment? This is a mystery she intends to solve. This book starts off a couple of weeks after the last book ends; Charley has a new neighbor, her sexy Reyes. This book takes their relationship to a new level, the sexual heat is incredible. Reyes is his usual sexy self, he is secure enough that he can let Charley be Charley and not suffocate her, he has more faith in her, then she probably has in herself. When it comes down to it, he stands by her side, always! Her new case is a dozy one, of her most difficult yet. She set about solving this case like all of the others: a lot of bumbling, even more humor, and death knocking on her door at all hours. I found it impossible to not love this book as much as all of the others ranking it in the top three of the series so far! If you haven’t started this series, you need to, like NOW! Who doesn’t love a lot of humor and action? It’s a combo I am not passing up anytime soon.

Review: Susan Mallery – Three Little Words

Fool’s Gold Series:

Book 13:

Three Little Words: Ford Hendrix and Isabel Carlisle

Three Little Words  (Fool's Gold #12)

Purchase on Amazon:  Three Little Words (Fool’s Gold)

Isabel Carlisle thinks she’s cursed in the romance department. Her teenage crush, Ford Hendrix, ignored all her letters. Her husband left her for another…man. So Isabel has come home to dust off her passion for fashion and run the family bridal shop until her parents are ready to sell it. Then she’ll pursue her real dreams. At least, that’s the plan, until sexy, charming Ford returns and leaves her feeling fourteen all over again….

Seeing Isabel all grown up hits bodyguard trainer Ford like a sucker punch. Back when heartbreak made him join the military, her sweet letters kept him sane. Now he can’t take his eyes-or his lips-off her. The man who gave up on love has a reason to stay in Fool’s Gold forever-if three little words can convince Isabel to do the same….

Another hit in the Fools Gold series, I mean really you can’t go wrong with this series when you are looking for something light hearted that will give you a little pick me up. Like the rest of the books it is quirky and humorous. In this one, Ford a Navy Seal is terrified of no one or nothing except his own mother! TO get her off his back he manages to convince Isabel to be his fake girlfriend. Isabel isn’t quite sure how he gets her to convince her to be his pretend girlfriend but here she is doing girlfriend duty. From the start of the arrangement it doesn’t really feel fake to the reader. The chemistry between Isabel and Ford is anything but fake. I like the angle of Isabel writing to him all of those years and a young girls letters becoming his anchor in the midst of war. It’s very sweet! This whole book is sweet. I really enjoyed how the whole book played out.

As an added bonus we also get Consuelas Happily Ever After. Consuela and Kent get almost as much page time as Isabel and Ford, which really picks up the pace of this book. Two books in one, score! Consuela is tough as nails but has always wanted a normal life, but her’s has been anything but. When she meets Kent she is terrified of him and what he makes her feel. There is no way someone as normal as Kent could ever go for a rough around the edges killer like her. Kent is great! He knows that Consuela has done some things she is not proud of, but he never lets that get in the way. He always treats her like a cherished female. He knows she knows at least 50 ways to kill him, but he trusts her with not only his body but his heart as well. We don’t get to know Kent as well as we do Ford, but you have a pretty good picture of him by the end of the book. This is not our first rodeo with Consuelo so we know more about her. It’s good to see her soften a bit, but not too much because that’s just not her. She stays pretty true to her character.

Three Little Words is another great installment in the Fools Gold seriesthat I thoroughly enjoyed! Great job Susan Mallery, we have come to count on your light hearted romances that will give you a good chuckle!

Review: Thea Harrison – The Wicked

The Elder Races Series:

Book 5.5

The Wicked: Sebastian Hale and Olivia

The Wicked (Elder Races, #5.5)

Purchase on Amazon: Thea Harrison – The Wicked (A Novella of the Elder Races)

The adventure of a lifetime might just end in turmoil, but when it includes meeting your future mate, who gives a hoot?

A Novella of the Elder Races

For a librarian with a focus on rare magic books, Olivia’s new job is a dream come true. She has been hired as part of a team to help manage the safe transportation of the collection of books owned by the Vampyre sorceress Carling Severan. The fact that the library is located on a mysterious island in an Other land only heightens the adventure.

Head of security for the expedition, Sebastian Hale is tired of his rootless life of adventure and finds himself attracted to the calm, beautiful librarian. But he is living a personal nightmare. He has been hit with a curse that is slowly taking away his sight, and he doesn’t know if he will survive the results.

But the powerful feelings growing between them, along with Sebastian’s inner turmoil, take a backseat when they learn there is a traitor lurking among their expedition team. With Elder Races politics and a priceless library on the line, they’ll have to rely on each other to survive the experience.

Warning: When a librarian who likes to nest meets an owl Wyr who has always lived for adventure, their romance won’t just be fly-by-night…

I have to say I quite enjoyed this novella, it was short but sweet. We originally meet Olivia in Oracle’s Moon; she quickly becomes Grace’s friend and is a witch at the largest witches’ library of the Elder Races. She tends to be quiet but is ready for adventure so she takes the opportunity to pack up Carling’s personal library. She never expected that her life was about to get significantly more exciting. Sebastian is under a Curse, as an Owl Wyr his eyesight is one of his greatest strengths; but the curse is winning against his natural defenses and he is slowly losing his site. He is drowning in boredom and misery when he takes the position as head of security to transport Carlings personal library. He never expected that his boredom was about to come to end, but there is still the curse to deal with.

From the moment Sebastian and Olivia the passion smolders but I like how Sebastian keeps his cool. Outwardly you wouldn’t know that he is insanely attracted to Olivia; he’s not one to wear his heart on his sleeve. Olivia is not sure what to make of this man, but she knows there is more than what he presents to the world. When there is a bit of danger towards Olivia all Sebastian’s protective instincts go haywire and he can’t deny his attraction any longer. I like his concern for Olivia, not only protecting her from outside threats but his concern for her on what her life would be like if she got chained to him since he is cursed and all. What I liked even better was Olivias reaction to his impending blindness. She accepted him and what may happen with his eyesight. She was all in, it didn’t matter to her whether he could see or not, even bringing up a seeing eye avian shifter so that he could still fly. I thought that so sweet and thoughtful. Their talk about their future talk had me in an awe moment as well as well as laughing a bit. I forgot how funny Thea Harrison could be. It’s been a while since I had read one of her books so when I broke out laughing a few times, it was like an ahhh… I forgot… moment. Unexpected, but very welcome. There is also a bit of action in this book, not a whole lot, I mean it’s only about 100 pages but Harrison manages to get it in there to keep things interesting. If you enjoy this series, I definitely recommend this novella. It’s a quick fun read that fits in quite nicely with the rest of the series.

Review: Kresley Cole – MacRieve

Immortals After Dark Series:

Book 13:

MacRieve: Uilleam MacRieve and Chloe Todd

MacRieve (Immortals After Dark, #13)

Purchase on Amazon:Kresley Cole – MacRieve (Immortals After Dark)

A Beast In Torment

Uilleam MacRieve believed he’d laid to rest the ghosts of his boyhood. But when a brutal torture revives those ancient agonies and destroys his Lykae instinct, the proud Scot craves the oblivion of death. Until he finds her—a young human so full of spirit and courage that she pulls him back from the brink.

A Beauty In Chains

Seized for the auction block, Chloe Todd is forced to enter a terrifying new world of monsters and lore as a bound slave. When offered up to creatures of the dark, she fears she won’t last the night. Until she’s claimed by him—a tormented immortal with heartbreaking eyes, whose touch sets her blood on fire.

A Full Moon On The Rise

With enemies circling, MacRieve spirits Chloe away to the isolated Highland keep of his youth. But once he takes her to his bed, his sensual mate becomes something more than human, evoking his savage past and testing his sanity. On the cusp of the full moon, can he conquer his worst nightmare to save Chloe . . . from himself?

Kresley Cole has long since earned her place on my auto-buy list as well as the top spot as my favorite author. Every time I pick up a Kresley Cole book it starts this spiral of need to go back and read the rest of the series all over again. I swear I do a re-read of IAD at least once a year. I know without a doubt that if I pick up a Kresley Cole book it will be a minimum of four stars EVERY time. MacRieve is absolutely no exception to this rule. This was not my favorite book of the series but I’d still say Ms. Cole has a winner on her hands. I DEVOURED it, staying up all night to finish and dragging my ass into work with almost no sleep but not caring. PS. I really wish release day was on a Friday or something so this wouldn’t keep happening to me with my favorite authors. LOL

As with Lothaire I gotta say MacRieve was kinda a douche in the middle of the book. He showed promise early on but events triggering childhood trauma and massive guilt changed that fairly quickly. I am glad to say that he did see error of his ways and did endeavor to change his attitude but it was some rough going there for a while. MacRieve totally earned his nickname of “Head Case” and I absolutely LOVED that nickname for him; it was so fitting and cracked me up every time someone used it and they called him it right to his face and he couldn’t even get mad since it was true. Lol Coming into this book, I had no idea just how traumatized MacRieve was, in reality we didn’t know much about the twins other then they are Hot and Hotter or is it Hotter and Hot?? A childhood event when he was nine lasting until it came to a head at thirteen shaped the rest of his life and then when he was picked up by the Order that just made everything worse. His torture was extensive as the pet of Dr. Nixon and then after the escape he barely dodged another bullet which dredged up the childhood memories. I couldn’t help but repeatedly say “pobrecito” (poor guy) throughout a lot of the book. He may have been a douche but it was kind of understandable and I couldn’t hate him for it. He even brought tears to my eyes a few times and I don’t think I have ever cried in a Kresley Cole book, because usually I’m too busy laughing.

Even though there were a few tears worry not my friends you’ll still laugh in this book because Chloe is quite the smart ass and I adore smart ass characters. Probably one of the reason I love Kresley Cole so much, most of her characters tend to be on the smart ass side and I can’t get enough of it. Chloe is also a pretty tough chica. In the beginning she is just a human professional woman’s soccer player with dreams of the Olympics but soon she realizes that something is happening to her. When her father disappears after handing her the living book of the Lore it is merely weeks when she is kidnapped to be sold to the highest bidder. It seems her father is enemy numero uno amongst the Lore. It is on the auction block when MacRieve finds her and “rescues” her. It is just when she is starting to buy into MacRieve’s matehood when he does a complete 180 after her transition. Chloe is not one to really put up with much shit so she gives back as much as she gets from MacRieve wanting nothing to do with him, but the nature of the beast rears its ugly head and circumstances what they are they have to stick together. What I really liked about Chloe is that she didn’t really freak out about the Lore and her transition. She had a “rub some dirt” mentality and tried to make the best of the situation. She remained her smart ass self and won everyone over including MacRieve. Although, I do wish that she would have been able to compete in the Olympics, it seems a bit sad that she had to give up that dream, but she took it in stride.

This book isn’t as action packed as some of the others as MacRieve is still pretty traumatized from being tortured so I think this was a good move, plus we still had plenty of drama with MacRieve and Chloe in their own personal battle between each other and MacRieves’ past. This is probably the steamiest book of the series, almost from the get go. As with all the other books in this series the side characters cannot be dismissed. I adore every single one of them in particular I loved the orphaned brothers. They cracked me up, especially the younger one. I’m drawing a blank on his name right now. We spend more time with Monroe then we ever have before and I like him, it’s looking like his book may be next in the series. He’s little to serious so I hope his mate drives him nuts! Kresley Cole is setting us up for something BIG so I can’t wait to see where we go in this series!

Well Done Kresley Cole, Well Done!

Review: Kristen Ashley–Fire Inside

Chaos Series:

Book 2:

Fire Inside: Hopper (Hop) Kincaid and Lanie Heron

Fire Inside (Chaos, #2)

Purchase on Amazon: Fire Inside: A Chaos Novel

Lanie Heron isn’t looking for love—no surprise, considering her last serious relationship nearly got her killed. So when Lanie propositions Hop Kincaid, all she wants is one wild night with the hot-as-hell biker who patrols with the Chaos Motorcycle Club…

For Hop, Lanie has always been untouchable. She’s too polished and too classy for his tastes. But when she gives Hop the once-over with her bedroom eyes and offers him a night in paradise, he can’t say no. And he doesn’t regret it when he finds that Lanie is the best thing that’s ever happened to him—in or out of bed. Now the trick will be to convince her of that.

First off I have to say I am a Kristen Ashley fan. Her characters tend to be real, they have flaws and talk like normal people. Her woman tend to have normal women issues like bad hair days, insecurities, flaws, previous bad taste in men and a weaknesses for hot alpha men to are as bossy as they are sweet. Ok, her men, I haven’t met a single dude like the ones she writes but her in lies the fantasy aspect of her stories. Lol We love to love her alpha male, bossy as hell, sexy, protective yet will do anything for his lady men. We get this same fantastic character development in this book.

Lanie is a drama queen; she comes by it naturally as it tends to run in the family lol. When she approaches Hop it is for one night, one night of immense pleasure as it’s been seven years for her. Seven years from that fateful night when everything was stolen from her because of her fiancés bad decisions. As a character I liked Lanie, I didn’t love Lanie but I enjoyed her dramatics and all. She is a confident woman who knows what is important in life. She almost lost her own life and that of her best friend because she stood by the wrong man. Now she is deathly afraid of attaching herself to another man, after hasn’t she shown her trust in men cannot be trusted? The push and pull between Lanie and Hop is entertaining to say the least but I’m not sure I truly bought the romance.

Hop is everything you would come to expect from a Kristen Ashley male. He is dominating, self-assured, a bad ass and knows what he wants. And for years what he has wanted is Lanie Heron, now she is approaching him for a night of pleasure. He knows shit is about to get complicated but this woman is worth it. Hop does all the right things, he says all the right things, he’s a total bad ass who will protect his woman into death. But here again, I liked his character, but I never grew to love him, not like I did Shy in the previous novel in this series. Hop is great, but maybe a little too great? I don’t know, I’m not sure what kept me to truly loving his character. Again, I did like him and he was great to Lanie it was just missing that teeny bit extra.

Overall, this book was very entertaining with typical K. Ashley laughs. There is plenty of drama and a great story. However, I kept waiting for something extra to happen. I don’t know what, but usually in a K Ashley novel there is at least one life threatening action happen, but this one didn’t really have one. There was a quickie but not like I’ve become used to. I kept waiting for it, but it never happened. Besides that, this novel was not lacking in anything else. Oh and I think this is one of her steamier novels. There were lots of romantical times steaming up the pages!

Inpatient Substance Use

Inpatient Substance Use

We know that substance use has a debilitating impact on the entire family system and making a decision to enter treatment is a big step for the person seeking help. Roxbury Treatment Center has been providing inpatient substance use services for over 30 years and has the experience of trained physicians, nurses, and clinicians to help guide you through this process.

During the detox phase of treatment a patient will be taken off all substances that are considered habit forming.  These can include pain medications, anti-anxiety medications, or other medications associated with a tendency for use. Our physician and nursing staff will ensure that you are comfortable during this time and will address any ailment or issue that arises. While we don’t use Suboxone or Methadone for opiate detox, we do use a variety of comfort medications and medical protocols to assist in this process.

Patient Stories

During the rehabilitation phase of treatment a patient will focus on the reasons for use, triggers, and coping skills as well as address any underlying mental health needs. While the majority of our treatment is group based, all patients have access to a variety of treatment options including:

  • Individual Counseling
  • Group Counseling
  • Family Counseling
  • Psycho-education
  • 12-Step Programming
  • Yoga, Meditation, and Relaxation Groups
  • Psychiatric Medication Management

Co-Occurring Disorders

Many of our patients come to Roxbury Treatment Center with co-occurring or secondary mental health issues that play a role in why they use substances.  Because of this, we provide every patient with a full psychiatric evaluation to ensure these needs are being addressed during the course of their treatment. By addressing mental health needs in conjunction with a patients substance use, we can help assist in understanding how these two disorders can impact each other. We are then able to provide a more comprehensive continuing care plan for after they complete treatment.

Substance Use Family Education Service

When family and loved ones are involved in the recovery process, their loved one in recovery has a much better chance of success. We also know that at times, a family member or loved one can feel lost as to how to help.  This is why we developed our family education service.  This service provides instruction about addiction and co-occurring mental illness and offers family and loved ones a much-needed support system. This is not visitation, nor will your loved be present. Topics that will be discussed may include:

  • Addiction basics.
  • Co-occurring mental health disorders and how they impact addiction.
  • What to expect during your loved ones treatment process.
  • How families can recover from the impacts of addiction.
  • What to expect after your loved one completes treatment.

Education sessions are held on select Saturdays. If you are interested in attending our next session, check out the Family Education Flyer for more information and dates. This is an excellent opportunity for you to learn more about addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders and how you can minimize the impact of your loved one’s addiction on you and your life.

Human enhancement and the future of work

Workshop report - Human enhancement and the future of work

07 November 2012

The Human enhancement and the future of work project explored potential enhancements arising from advances in science and engineering that are likely to impact on the future of work.

Key messages identified by participants at a workshop in March 2012 included:

  • Enhancement technologies could change how people work. Work will evolve over the next decade, with enhancement technologies potentially making a significant contribution. Widespread use of enhancements might influence an individual’s ability to learn or perform tasks and perhaps even to enter a profession; influence motivation; enable people to work in more extreme conditions or into old age, reduce work-related illness; or facilitate earlier return to work after illness.
  • Empirical data are needed to guide policy. ‘Known unknowns’ need to be addressed by studies on short- and longterm impacts (both positive and negative) of enhancements on individuals with detailed consideration of social and ethical impacts using deliberative dialogue with users, potential users and wider society and the development of a market map to guide commercialisation. Continuous monitoring to inform the re-assessment of any policy or regulatory decisions is vital but will also require these underpinning data.
  • Policy must be informed by open dialogue. We must engage publics in open dialogue about the prospects of enhancement technologies and how they might be used at work, particularly given that use at work would affect the entire population, both those employed and not employed. Sources of input should include users of enhancements, older populations, trade unions, as well as those with expertise with novel innovations and technologies. Policy-makers and publics must be equipped to recognize circumstances in which, for example, claims around the benefits of new technologies are inflated.
  • The cost of technologies will be crucial. Cost and cost–benefit analysis are clearly key factors in determining who funds provision, which in turn will impact on equality and justice. Cost also drives investment decisions and will therefore be important in determining commercialization opportunities.
  • The availability of enhancements will be influential. Although the cost of some enhancement technologies will render them inaccessible to all but the very few, raising questions of equality and justice, other technologies such as pharmacological cognition enhancers, are already readily available through the internet—posing imminent challenges for effective regulation. Likewise, digital devices and services with the potential to influence cognition are emerging continuously with little research into the risks and benefits.
  • Interdisciplinary approaches will be key to moving forward. In developing new technologies, whether they are cognitive training or bionic limbs, interdisciplinary approaches will facilitate better understanding of how best to proceed. This also applies to implementation: if any enhancement is seen as valuable, scientists need to work together with social scientists, philosophers, ethicists, policy-makers and the public to discuss the ethical and moral consequences of enhancement, and thus to harness maximum benefit with minimal harm.

The report of the workshop is a record of the discussion that took place at the event, and does not necessarily reflect the policy of the academies.

Aphrodite Envoi

She's with you for a while, will always fade.
She's spread so thin. Her legs are spread as well
for far more lovers than she'll ever tell.
A goddess has her secrets. You'll get laid

a while and think you love her, are loved back.
It's sort of true, and sort of really not.
Sex is her work – well, that and being hot.
Come home one day – and she's begun to pack.

Her stuff's not in the wardrobe. In her case
are all her toys. She's hung up your spare key.
She pecks your cheek, a bit maternally.
Then she is gone, with heartache in her place.

Yet it's a sort of mellow, gentle pain.
Love never wholly leaves. Will come again.

What would America look like, if we were a nation without Faith?

Faith Across the Globe: Helping our Fellow Man

Across the globe, men, women, and children live in unimaginable poverty, without access to clean water, healthful foods, or warm clothing. Diseases ravage nations without access to adequate medical facilities or basic healthcare. Many lack the sanitation services needed to stop normally preventable, treatable illnesses from striking their communities. Natural disasters are worldwide phenomena. Almost 800 million people worldwide suffer from chronic hunger and roughly 1 billion people worldwide live in extreme poverty. According to the World Bank, as of 2012, 12.7% of the world survives on $1.90 a day or less. Many of these people are difficult to reach, living in remote areas or in precarious political climates.

Just as American faith-based groups provide essential services to those at home, many also extend their reach around the world. The services they provide offer both compassion for those in need and serve to advance the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States by alleviating deprivation, poverty, and providing hope in areas of extreme strife.

When local governments and agencies do not have the resources to help their citizens obtain food, clean water, shelter or education, a wide range of American congregations and faith-based organizations step in to do just that. The southern Baptist community mobilizes people and financial resources to alleviate suffering worldwide. Congregations have worked with Christian groups in West Africa to train communities on Ebola response in rural areas, in an effort to halt the spread of the devastating disease. They are also providing resources to Syrian refugees to help get children back in school. Congregations are providing students with backpacks, and teachers with classroom assistance and school supplies so students have the resources they need to learn, and can in turn make their communities better for generations to come.

When local governments and agencies do not have the resources to help their citizens obtain food, clean water, shelter or education, a wide range of American congregations and faith-based organizations step in to do just that.

In April of 2015, more than 30 leaders from different world religions and faith-based organizations issued a call to action, with the goal of ending extreme poverty across the planet by 2030. Though these religious leaders hail from different faiths, with different belief systems, they all share a moral consensus that extreme poverty stifles human dignity and have pledged their commitment to its eradication. They hope to tackle preventable illnesses, chronic joblessness, and discrimination. They are fighting for a world where women and girls have an equal access to education and where human rights are paramount. Because more than 8 in 10 people across the globe identify with a religious group, religious leaders are using this global sense of faith to empower world citizens to fight poverty alongside each other.

Other organizations have delivered food, medicine, and other assistance to alleviate suffering around the world, for several decades. Through one organization, doctors have provided life-saving operations to more than one thousand children from impoverished or war-torn nations, including Bosnia, Uganda, and Bolivia. They work with hospitals and doctors around the world, arranging for children, a guardian, and a translator to travel to these hospitals to obtain care that is not available to them in their home countries. They locate Christian churches and families to serve as hosts, who in turn help provide food, housing, transportation, and other amenities to the visiting group. This network of doctors, families, and hospitals provide life-changing treatment, giving children abroad a second chance at normal lives.

Other organizations operate children’s ministries to provide new beginnings to the most vulnerable across the globe, children without homes or families. In 2010, an earthquake devastated Haiti, leaving hundreds of thousands dead and many more homeless. Orphanages were reduced to rubble, leaving children to fight for survival in their ruins. In 2012 a home and school, operated on the foundation of the Gospel, was constructed and has welcomed 60 children, many without families, and others in situations so dire it is unsafe to return home, to live, be children, and get an education taught in French, Creole, and English. Between 2010 and 2012 following the earthquake, faith-based organizations have also distributed more than 15,000 shelters, drilled 18 permanent wells, built 193 permanent latrines, and distributed roughly 13,000 metric tons of food. They continue to provide relief, health [care], and children’s services to struggling adults and children in Haiti, improving living conditions and providing educations to those most in need. This is of critical importance for a nation where over half of food aid is distributed through religious organizations with boots on the ground.

Other organizations share a mission of affirming God’s love for all. One Lutheran organization partners with other Lutherans and organizations worldwide in a fight to end poverty and human suffering. In working with local partners on a variety of life changing causes, including developing long-term solutions to poverty, these ministries are able to address rural financing and food scarcity by supporting nearby small scale farmers. They provide access to small grants to farmers and cooperatives to be used like loan funds, establishing local savings systems for small-scale farmers. Through coffee and cocoa initiatives, small producers are gaining the ability to capture a portion of the global markets. In Honduras, Lutheran outreach groups are helping farmers improve their knowledge about cocoa production through farmer field schools and through training and technical assistance. These services are aimed at increasing their volumes of cocoa production that are in line with market standards, and give farmers greater access to market information. This increased access allows small-scale farmers to support their families and communities and helps them gain access to the tools they need to meet the high standards of a competitive industry.

Timeshare Foreclosure

When homeowners and condominium associations experience difficulty collecting dues and assessments owed to them by owners of timeshare interests, Rogers Townsend can assist in getting things back on track. South Carolina law, in most cases, provides a relatively expeditious process for the foreclosure of timeshare interests. We are experienced in recovering the debts owed to the association or, if necessary, returning the units back to the association through foreclosure or other non-foreclosure alternatives.

MLMM Saturday Mix – Garden

The site upon which Madison Square Garden was eventually established was originally occupied by a small passenger depot of the New York and Harlem Railroad. The site was vacated by the railroad in 1871 when it was moved uptown.[1] The site was vacant until 1874 when it was leased to P. T. Barnum who converted it into an open oval arena 270 feet (82 m) long, with seats and benches in banks, which he named the Great Roman Hippodrome[1] where he presented circuses and other performances. The roofless building was also called Barnum’s Monster Classical and Geological Hippodrome and measured 420 feet (130 m) by 200 feet (61 m).

In 1876 the open-air arena was leased to band leader Patrick Gilmore, who renamed it Gilmore’s Garden and presented flower shows, beauty contests, music concerts, temperance and revival meetings, walking marathons[2] and the first Westminster Kennel Club Dog Scalled at the time (1877) the “First Annual N.Y. Bench Show.”[1] Gilmore also presented boxing, but since competitive boxing matches were technically illegal at the time, he called them “exhibitions” or “illustrated lectures.”

1939 Nazis held meeting in the garden.

Baby Girl Gets Emotional Tears To Andrea Bocelli Song

MCP88Published: February 8, 2018Updated: February 9, 201813,395 plays$27.00 earned
Published: February 8, 2018Updated: February 9, 2018

We all have been moved to tears by a musical piece at some point in our lives. Long before there was Adele’s ‘Hello’, which had men and women sobbing with tears, humankind had been moved emotionally by what we now call classical music.

The phenomenon of evoking an emotional response by listening to music is an interesting and capital point of music, so we shouldn’t be all too surprised that we sometimes get a little lump in our throats when we hear a piece of music. Whether it is the sound of a performer’s voice, or the way the notes skip from the higher to the lower ranges, it doesn’t matter. Music makes us feel good, one way or the other.

We are surrounded by it, from the moment we arrive in this world. Our mothers used to sing to us, which made us feel calm enough to fall asleep. Nowadays there are specifically designed programs that are meant to deliver such an emotion to children. For this little girl, however, the effect was the exact opposite! Babies have such an incredible ability to be honest with their feelings. And this sweet baby girl gets emotional for a simple yet beautiful reason.

Rosalee was watching Sesame Street with her mom and when the bedtime song came, Rosalee felt like everything but taking a nap. They had Andrea bocelli as a musical guest and he sang “Time To Say Good Night” with Elmo. What was supposed to be a bedtime song, turn into a sob song! Here’s what Rosalee’s mom had to say about it: “I put this video on hoping it would put her to sleep... but then she started absolutely sobbing! Emotionally moved by the voice of Andrea Bocelli... And now this song is banned from my home!”

Baby Rosalee is undoubtedly a cutie. With those big eyes and pinch-able chunky cheeks we just want to snuggle this little one. It is time for her to get ready for bed so momma figured out that she can play her some soothing music to help get her settle in for the night. So she decided to play the classic Sesame Street video of Elmo and Andrea Bocelli singing ‘Time to Say Goodnight' a twist on the operatic classic ‘Time to say Goodbye'. The sweet video is intended to help introduce kids to opera music as well as create a beautiful calming lullaby. Anything that involves Andrea Bocelli is going to be incredible. Elmo is great, we love him and it looks like we are not alone!

Sweet little Rosalee is all snuggled up and ready to watch her favorite little furry red friend.That's when the music starts and she is hooked. As the two starts singing to sing, Rosalee can’t help but watch in amazement. But as the song goes on she becomes overwhelmed by all the emotions the song is bringing out in her.It is so precious to see the twinkle in her eye as the tears well up. Just watch her sweet little face as she feels a whole range of emotion.Music has always moved us in so many ways. But seeing this sweet little one be moved by this beautiful song just about brought us to tears. How precious is she? And how badly do you want to give her a hug?

What is an environmental management system ?

What is an environmental management system ?
An environmental management system helps organizations identify, manage, monitor and control their environmental issues in a“ holistic ” manner.
Other ISO standards that look at different types of management systems, such as ISO 9001 for quality
management and ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety, all use a High-Level Structure.
This means that ISO 14001 can be integrated easily into any existing ISO management system.
ISO 14001 is suitable for organizations of all types and sizes, be they private, not-for-profit or governmental.
It requires that an organization considers all environmental issues relevant to its operations,
such as air pollution, water and sewage issues, waste management, soil contamination,
climate change mitigation and adaptation, and resource use and efficiency.
Like all ISO management system standards,
ISO 14001 includes the need for continual
improvement of an organization’s systems
and approach to environmental concerns. The
standard has recently been revised, with key
improvements such as the increased prominence
of environmental management within
the organization’s strategic planning processes,
greater input from leadership and a stronger
commitment to proactive initiatives that boost
environmental performance.

Why Gender-Specific Treatment Programs are Effective

Gender Separate Treatment

Substance abuse disorders affect every individual differently. For this reason, treatment programs are most effective when they offer care tailored to individual needs. Patients seeking this type of personal, individualized treatment may consider treatment with gender-specific programs.

Addiction can cause a variety of negative effects on an individual’s life, impacting daily life like work, family life, and social situations. Professional treatment for substance abuse and addiction is necessary to discover the underlying issues of addiction. Gender-specific treatment programs offer special care for the issues that both men and women face in their personal and professional lives.

Gender-Specific Treatment Programs

Gender-specific drug and alcohol treatment programs are designed to treat men and women in a specialized and comfortable environment. Gender-specific treatment programs remove some of the distractions that may arise in combined treatment programs. Not only that, but patients tend to feel more comfortable and focused as they recover around their peers. Clients are able to share and relate over experiences specific to men and women.

Men and women may have very different feelings about seeking treatment for drug or alcohol abuse. Often times, men and women have different issues to deal with in therapy and counseling sessions. Men and women also differ in the frequency of relapse, as well as circumstances resulting in relapse. This evidence suggests that men and women may require specific treatment types to help them recovery and maintain wellness in normal life.

Treatment Programs for Women

Women have their own specific needs it comes to seeking treatment for drug and alcohol abuse, which makes women-specific programs a good option. Women are able to communicate with one another regarding things like motherhood, workplace dynamics, and relationship and family life.

Women are more likely to have body image issues as well. These issues are often addressed in therapy as part of their treatment process. Because body image issues usually involve a women’s sense of self-worth, self-esteem, and value, female patients may not feel comfortable discussing these topics in a group including men. A treatment group with women suffering from similar issues creates an atmosphere that encourages open and honest communication.

The women entering treatment due to addiction after a traumatic event might also benefit from gender-specific programs. Women who have experienced verbal, physical, or sexual assault by men may not feel safe discussing these events in a group with men.

Mothers who are suffering from addiction will also benefit from sharing experiences with other mothers. Culturally, women are the caretakers of the home and family. It can be difficult to be away from children during treatment, but with the support of other women and professionals, women are able to talk about what it means to have lived with an addiction while trying to care for their children.

In gender-specific treatment, women will receive unconditional love and support while gaining the life skills they need to lead a successful life in recovery. Men and women recover differently, which is why this type of programming is most effective. Women will thrive in a safe space top empower one another, build a support system, develop friendships, and address gender-specific issues in an understanding environment.

Treatment Programs for Men

Men usually come to treatment with certain specific needs due to their own cultural roles. Unfortunately, men are weary to enter treatment because it seemed to them to be a sign of weakness. Obviously, this is certainly not the case. Men tend to feel ashamed and helpless because they cannot overcome their addiction alone.

Certain therapy methods tend to be more helpful to men than others. For example, men usually respond better to treatment methods that addressed specific thought patterns and behaviors. Talking through issues and introspection is often less helpful for men. Men also may require extra time to be comfortable revealing their emotions in individual or group settings.

Often times, male sexual abuse are overlooked in traditional treatment settings. These sensitive issues can be handled more openly and honestly in a single-gender setting. Gender separate program allows an understanding environment for men to gain tools, build friendships, and develop a support network for a lasting recovery.

Men can sometimes find it difficult to admit they have lost control over their drug or alcohol use. Given the cultural expectation, reluctance is understandable. Addiction treatment provides professional treatment and support to men who are struggling. Gender-specific treatment for men caters specifically to the physiological, psychological, and emotional needs of men.

Treatment for All

The decision for anyone to get help for a substance abuse issue is a significant one that should not be taken lightly. Treatment for recovery is a major lifestyle change that takes time for adjustment. Men and women will have to learn new ways to deal with the stressors of life and putting trust into sobriety. Gender-specific treatment programs make this transition to recovery more comfortable for both men and women.

Calling artists, local and international, we use Art as a tool to spread awareness about the waste management problem, conduct courses, and work with the local community, to use fabrication tools, and upcycle waste to create products that could potentially be sold in our Shop.

The Fabrication Lab – here invited artists and designers will be able to create and produce their artwork, and design products for sale in the Shop.

It will be open for visitors to see and follow the creative work and production of artwork and products.

There will also be options for visitors to enlist and participate in workshops and create products & art themselves.

The Gallery – an exhibition space where visitors can interact with the work created by the artists.

The Shop will exhibit and offer for sale products and souvenirs made out of waste at the Center.

Storywall, first side: The Challenge

Title: The Challenges of Sagarmatha

  • Focus on the challenge section of the message
  • A graphical map/mountainside showing a little bit of history and what increasing amounts of visitors have impacted the region. A visual represantation of how Everest itself is not the problem: it's in the volumes of waste and the challenge from trekkers.
  • Types of waste, categorized and with amounts to make it easy to grasp the scope of the waste problem. maybe 3-4 different categories with a touch-and-feel concept.
    One physical item for each waste category mounted to the wall in a "touch & feel" type of style.
    • Example: Pet-bottle, Oxygen canister, household trash, Gas canister, household trash, Gas conisters
    • We will need to sync this with the reports and facts about trash categories.

We have seen some great concepts of furniture being made out of PET-bottles or other trash and though that it would be nice to have some sitting possibilities in the IC.

We're showing these concepts now so we can continue discussing if you already have thought about this or if this could be something produced in the workshop area.

This is perhaps something that can't be finished for the opening of the centre but the seed of an idea we want to plant now.Something to be produced in the future.

Saint Rose of Lima

Mystic, Stigmatic, & Layperson

(1586 - 1617)

Memorial : 23 August

Saint Rose of Lima, T.O.S.D. (April 20, 1586 – August 24,  - 1617), was a Spanish colonist in Lima, Peru, who became known for both her life of severe asceticism and her care of the needy of the city through her own private efforts. A lay member of the Dominican Order, she was the first person born in the Americas to be canonized by the Catholic Church.

As a saint, Rose of Lima is designated as a co-patroness of the Philippines along with Saint Pudentiana, who were both moved as second-class patronage in September 1942 by Pope Pius XII, but remains the primary patroness of Peru and the indigenous natives of Latin America.

She was born Isabel Flores y de Oliva in the city of Lima, then in the Viceroyalty of Peru, on April 20, 1586. She was one of the many children of Gaspar Flores, a harquebusier in the Imperial Spanish army, born in San Germán on the island of San Juan Bautista (now Puerto Rico), and his wife, María de Oliva, a native of Lima. Her later nickname "Rose" comes from an incident in her babyhood: a servant claimed to have seen her face transform into a rose. In 1597 she was confirmed by the Archbishop of Lima, Turibius de Mongrovejo, who was also to be declared a saint. She formally took the name of Rose at that time.

By age 5, Rose wanted to learn how to read and write, but there was nobody who was free to help her. Her mother Maria had tried to do so, but soon grew tired and gave up. So the child decided to pray to the Child Jesus, saying to her mom:  “Since no one has time to teach me things, I am going to ask Jesus to do it. He can do anything can’t He?”

Thus in her childlike simplicity and candor, Rose began to recite the following prayer: “Oh Jesus, help me to know and to love You, and teach me to read and write.”

She began to fast three times a week and performed severe penances in secret. When she was admired for her beauty, Rose cut off her hair and smeared pepper on her face, upset that suitors were beginning to take notice of her. She rejected all suitors against the objections of her friends and her family. Despite the censure of her parents, she spent many hours contemplating the Blessed Sacrament, which she received daily, an extremely rare practice in that period. She was determined to take a vow of virginity, which was opposed by her parents, who wished her to marry. One day, Rose announced to her mother that she knew how to read and write. She told her mother that it was the Child Jesus who had taught her. Her mother was in disbelief but nevertheless Rose proved to her mother that she knew how to read by reading from a book about St. Catherine of Siena.  Just as Rose had said it was the Little Child Jesus who worked a wonderful miracle by teaching Rose Himself how to read and write, proving that with faith in God, everything is possible.

But the Child Jesus was to work many more miracles through Rose. As Rose grew older so did her love for Jesus and also her neighbor. She had great compassion towards those who were sick.  She knew that by showing compassion to the sick, she was showing compassion to God.Finally, out of frustration, her father gave her a room to herself in the family home.

After daily fasting, she took to permanently abstain from eating meat. She helped the sick and hungry around her community, bringing them to her room and taking care of them. Rose sold her fine needlework, and took flowers that she grew to market, to help her family. She made and sold lace and embroidery to care for the poor, and she prayed and did penance in a little grotto which she had built. Otherwise, she became a recluse, leaving her room only for her visits to church.

She attracted the attention of the friars of the Dominican Order. She wanted to become a nun, but her father forbade it, so she instead entered the Third Order of St. Dominic while living in her parents' home. In her twentieth year she donned the habit of a tertiary and took a vow of perpetual virginity. She donned a heavy crown made of silver, with small spikes on the inside, in emulation of the Crown of Thorns worn by Christ.

On that day Rose, who was a member of the Third Order of St Dominic, was with the other Tertiaries  the Church of Santo Domingo assisting at the solemn services. The sacristan distributed the waving palm branches, but some how missed Rose. When the procession had formed, the saintly maiden took her usual place and modestly accompanied the others, humbling herself before God and accusing herself of having too eagerly desired the palm branch. So when she came before the miraculous statue of the Queen of the Rosary she begged for pardon. Then the figure of the Blessed Virgin Mary with Child became animated and smiled upon the humble Rose.

Saint Rose of Lima - Stigmatist
Rose, touched to the very depths of her soul by this kindness, cried out : “Nevermore, O dearest Lady, will I take a palm branch from the hands of man, for You, O Palm of Virgins, will give me a never fading one!”

The Blessed Virgin then turned to the Child Jesus and asked a favor; then suddenly Rose experienced a thrill of holy joy, and ecstatic emotion filled her inmost soul, as the Divine Infant spoke these words to her : “Rose of My heart, be My spouse!”

With a heart over-flowing with love and tender gratitude, and overwhelmed by a realization of the greatness of the favor and of her own unworthiness, she humbly bowed her head, giving vent in tears of thankfulness to the great joy that came over her, while she promised eternal fidelity to her beloved Jesus.

For eleven years she lived this way, with intervals of ecstasy, and died on August 24, 1617, at the age of 31. It is said that she prophesied the date of her death. Her funeral was held in the cathedral, attended by all the public authorities of Lima, and with a eulogy by the archbishop.

Rose was beatified by Pope Clement IX on April 15, 1667, and canonized on April 12, 1671, by Pope Clement X, the first Catholic in the Americas to be declared a saint. Her shrine, alongside those of her friends, St. Martin de Porres and Saint John Macías, is located inside the convent of St. Dominic in Lima. The Roman Catholic Church says that many miracles followed her death; there were stories that she had cured a leper. Many places in the New World are named Santa Rosa after her. Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI is especially devoted to her.

Her liturgical feast was inserted into the Roman Catholic Calendar of Saints in 1729 for celebration initially on August 30, because August 24, the date of her death, is the feast of Saint Bartholomew the Apostle and August 30 was the closest date not already allocated to a well-known saint. Pope Paul VI's 1969 reform of the Roman Catholic calendar of saints, made August 23 available, the day on which her feast day is now celebrated throughout the world, including Spain, but excluding Peru and some other Latin American countries, where August 30 is a public holiday in her honor.

She is honored together with Martin de Porres and Turibius of Mogrovejo with a feast day on the liturgical calendar of the Episcopal Church (USA) on August 23.

Early lives of Santa Rosa were written by the Dominican Father Hansen, "Vita Sanctae Rosae" (2 vols., Rome, 1664–1668), and Vicente Orsini, afterward. Pope Benedict XIII wrote "Concentus Dominicano, Bononiensis ecclesia, in album Sanctorum Ludovici Bertrandi et Rosae de Sancta Maria, ordinero praedicatorum" (Venice, 1674).

There is a park named for her in downtown Sacramento, California. A plot of land at 7th and K streets was given to the Roman Catholic Church by Peter Burnett, first Governor of the State of California. Father Peter Anderson built one of the first of two churches in the diocese to be consecrated under the patronage of St Rose.

In the Caribbean twin-island state of Trinidad and Tobago, the Santa Rosa Carib Community, located in Arima, is the largest organization of indigenous peoples on the island. The second oldest parish in the Diocese of Port-of-Spain is also named after this saint. The Santa Rosa Church, which is located in the town of Arima, was established on April 20, 1786, as the Indian Mission of Santa Rosa de Arima on the foundations of a Capuchin Mission previously established in 1749.

Rose's skull is on public display in the basilica in Lima, Peru. It was customary to keep the torso in the basilica and pass the cranium around the country. She has a crown of roses on her cranium. The skull is displayed with that of St. Martin de Porres, whose skull is also separate from his torso.

Saint Rose is the patroness of Americas, indigenous people of the Americas especially of Lima, Peru; the secondary patroness of the Philippines along with Saint Pudentiana; of gardeners; of florists; of Sittard, the Netherlands; of India.

Metal verses Bamboo, What’s your preference?

Hi peeps,

Hope that you are all doing well.

This week’s post is all about knitting needles: metal ones, verses Bamboo.

When I first started knitting again, probably in my late twenties. I needed some knitting needles but all I could find were ones made from Bamboo. As I hadn’t knitted anything for several years, so I thought that Bamboo needles were all the ones available now. I found them strange and difficult to use, mainly because I was afraid of breaking them! Also, I had only ever used metal needles before so using something so light and fragile seemed strange. I did get used to them eventually and discovered that metal ones were still for sale, which was great news.

Metal Needles: Are predominately made from aluminium and are available in most sizes. Although some larger needles can only be bought made from plastic – which I’m not keen on.

  1. Sturdier.
  2. Easy to use.
  3. Durable.
  4. Comes in a range of sizes.
  5. Readily available.
  6. Makes the associated sound of knitting.
  7. Cost effective.

  1. Can be slippy.
  2. Stitches are easy to lose. Particularly when increasing or knitting a lace pattern.
  3. Using a thin yarn on small metal needles can be difficult as the yarn is difficult to grip with the needles.
  4. Can be heavy.
  5. May make your wrists ache.

Bamboo Needles: Can only usually be bought from 3mm up to 6mm. All other sizes would be either metal or plastic.

  1. Light-weight.
  2. Easy to use.
  3. Easy to grip thinner yarn with.
  4. Portable.
  5. It’s a preferred choice by people with wrist related issues as they are lighter and puts less pressure on the wrists.

  1. Can be expensive.
  2. Have more of a tendency to snap/break.
  3. Doesn’t have a wide size range.

There’s a quick overview of needles. It’s by no means exhaustive and it’s only what I have discovered myself, but it’s a personal choice and other people will probably have more of a different experience. That’s fine, make your own decision. I really don’t like using plastic needles if I can help it as they do not knit smoothly, and I find them difficult to use as the yarn doesn’t slide easily on them. Sometimes I have no choice because if I’m making a project and I need a larger needle then plastic is my only option, but if I can choose, I would pick either metal or Bamboo, depending on what I’m making.

Thanks for reading my post! Feel free to share,

Sarah. 😊
