Two livestreams, one day! See you tonight!
Dr. John Catanzaro was a naturopathic physician in Bothell, WA when the state suspended him on claims he was misleading cancer patients. He owned the Health and Wellness Institute of Integrative Medicine and Cancer Treatment where he was using what he called a "cancer vaccine" to help patients. The DOH alleged that Dr. Catanzaro neglected to tell some of his patients the treatment was experimental. I was a TV reporter in Seattle at the time, assigned to this story at night after his office had closed. We aired the DOH claims without a statement from Dr. Catanzaro and thereby smeared his practice. Later, I interviewed several of his patients who credited him with their lives, and were horrified the state required the destruction of their treatment. But in many ways it was too late, the damage was done.
I am as guilty as the next parent of turning on the TV when I need an emergency mental health break. However, living on a farm has shown me so much about how and why screens became popular. A farm offers endless opportunities for kids to create, play games and discover the world around them. As city life became the norm, and fewer families farmed, it was no longer safe to just let kids roam around unsupervised, and screen time became the convenient babysitter. In moments where I feel the impulse to turn on a screen, I remember that I do not have to be an activities director. Kids have an innate, God-given capacity to create. On this particular day, I was feeding the chickens when I saw that they turned a hay bale into a slide. It reminded me that I can send them outside with no plan - and they will never cease to amaze me with their discoveries.
And I should add, both kids take their fermented cod liver/butter oil like champs! They have no autoimmune issues, rarely get sick and have ...
"Mommy Cow" was looking SO good in her blue halter when we dropped her off at her new temporary home. Mr. Bull was thoroughly impressed. We will leave her there 90 days (as cows ovulate every 21 days typically) in order to give her a few chances to get pregnant. It takes about the same time to bake a calf as a human child, so if all goes well, we should have a nice little Angus calf next Spring. Healthy hormones are very important for Mommy Cow - and same goes for us! I love the omega-3 benefits in my fermented cod liver/butter oil from https://www.greenpasture.org/ which are known to reduce inflammation, increase insulin sensitivity and balance hormones naturally.

We are sending "Mommy Cow" (as Lily named her) to a bull, so we chose a nice bright blue halter for her as she'll be in a herd with a bunch of other black cows. I got a cow halter and a horse halter because I wasn't sure what would fit best. I must say, she looks so purdy! If you want a shiny coat like Mommy Cow, don't forget to grab some fermented cod liver/butter oil from https://www.greenpasture.org/ which has been incredible for my nails, teeth and hair - truly! My dentist recently told me I have "very good teeth for 40." Use promo code "ALISON" at checkout for 10% off.

No water to fight fires in Georgia! Residents told to cut back yet data centers have no restrictions - YouTube
And don't fall for claims about low water use data centers. They use more electricity. And guess what, it takes WATER to make electricity. They're consuming water via electricity generation. It just offsets the water use to the electrical generation location.
