I started wondering about the conditions under which the beef was grown, whether forests where cleared to provide such inexpensive meat, what feed was grown for the cattle, what energy footprint was being created, whether this was really ethical. Is this information worthwhile? Is this information overload?

Feathers in my cap. Saturday, August 15, 2015. Her hand hovers uncertainly over the scarlet red lipstick on her dressing table, one that had been seldom used and had remained untouched except for a couple of occasions in the past. The red on your lips makes you look like a slut. Even today, thinking of the hurtful things he used to tell her makes her flinch, like the invisible knife he had twisted into her heart, with each word it would dig in deeper. At Lillie McFerrin Writes. Links to this post. As the...

Monday, May 25, 2015. On Friday, though, I was shocked. I know I should not have been. I knew the Aberdeen police had an armored vehicle and that SWAT teams were more militarized everywhere. But knowing is different than seeing. When I walked down by Cherry Street and I saw a MRAP parked outside a little working class house and I walked past young men carrying assault rifles, something in me froze.

Finding my place in the haystack. My name is Brandy and I graduated with a Master's in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in 2015. Two weeks later I started the Doctoral program at the same school and have 1 year left. Well, lets do some research. Lets talk to practitioners and the public.
