Blood Orange Margaritas for Halloween

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year and this flavorful citrus fruit adds a dramatic ruby red color to recipes both sweet and savory for this night.

I think this is a great drink for Halloween because of the red color of blood. You can have fun decorating the drink with vampire teeth on the rim of the glass or an eyeball at the bottom of the glass.

Fact: Blood oranges are slightly less acidic than regular oranges. They contain 120 percent of the recommended daily amount of vitamin C, 12 percent of the amount of fiber, and also potassium, calcium, and vitamin A.

Kosher salt

Crushed ice

1/2 cup(s) fresh blood orange juice

2 ounce(s) tequila

1 ounce(s) triple sec or Cointreau

Blood orange wedges (optional), for garnish

---

Directions

1. Moisten rim of 2 margarita glasses and dip in kosher salt. Fill a cocktail shaker with crushed ice. Add orange juice, tequila, and triple sec. Shake well and strain into glasses. Garnish with orange wedges, if desired.

I also put together a video recipe guide and ideas for Halloween parties. Take a look and you might find some interesting ideas.

Kimberly Hiatt Nurse Review

Nurse Kimberly Hiatt had made a mistake and gave a baby named Kaia Zautner an overdose of medication. This happened on September 14, 2010. Kaia was only eight-month-old when this happened. She was a patient at Seattle Children’s Hospital.

After this had happened it was the end of the world as Nurse Kimberly Hiatt had know it. She was fired for the only mistake she had done in her 24 years of her medical career.

I can relate to this story because she was 50 years old when she committed suicide after accidentally giving a baby an fatal overdose of medication. She made a mistake of giving 1.4 grams of calcium chloride instead of 140 milligrams of the medication to baby Kaia.

I am 50 years old and if I had done this I would have ended my world too! I would not be able to live knowing I had killed a baby even if it was an accident.

On April 3, she was so devastated that all of this had happened to her that she committed suicide.

What made this worse for Nurse Hiatt is the parents did not pres any charges because they knew that their baby girl had had severe heart problems and she had been in and out of the Seattle Children’s Hospital since birth.

I am a mom of two and this would have ended the world for me if I had been told that my baby was killed by accident. I would have kept on going, but I would not have looked at the world the same after this had happened. The nurse had came attached to the baby and this is why she was devastated that this had happened.

Look at her in the photo, she looked like a very pleasant person to know. It's a shame she ended her life at a young age. Yes, I consider 50 to still be young. I'm hoping, I I'll be a 100!

The original story is on Newsoxy and was published by Rob Adams on June 27, 2011. They are the photo source too.

How To Win At Slot Machines

A former professional gambler explains why playing a slot machine is no way to win. He explains why winning at slots is not random, and why no skill is involved. He demonstrates how to program one of the popular slot machine models, which in itself proves that slot machines are programmed to take your money, instead of paying you a jackpot.

How To Hot-Wire a Car

Check out Howcast for other do-it-yourself videos from carlo_scialla and more videos in the General Driving category.

No keys and no help in sight? Here's how to get your car moving again.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Proof of ownership of the vehicle
A hammer
A flat-head screwdriver
A Phillips-head screwdriver
Your car's manual
Insulated gloves
Wire cutters and strippers

Warning: Hot-wiring a car is dangerous and is likely to damage your vehicle. Never hot-wire anyone's car but yours and be prepared to show your proof of ownership.

Step 1: Try a screwdriver


Pound a flat-head screwdriver into the ignition and turn it like a key. This will ruin the ignition cylinder, but it's effective on many cars manufactured before the mid '90s.

Step 2: Remove the ignition cover

If the car doesn't start, pull the screwdriver out of the ignition and remove the screws in the panels on the top and bottom of the steering column. Next, use the flat-head screwdriver to pry off the plastic panels and expose the ignition cylinder and the wires running to it. Be gentle to minimize damage to the steering column.

Step 3: Identify the battery and starter wires

Identify the battery and starter wires. Generally the two red wires handle the car's power, and the one or two brown wires connect to the starter. Consult your car's manual to learn its specific wire color code.

Step 4: Connect the power wires

Put on the gloves, and use the cutters to cut the power wires from the cylinder. Then, strip the ends and connect them by twisting them together to provide power to the lights, radio, and other electrical systems.

Step 5: Connect the starter wires

Cut the starter wires from the cylinder and strip the ends. Be extremely careful not to touch the exposed ends as they carry a powerful live current and will shock you. Touch them together, and as soon as the car has started, pull them apart and tape the ends to avoid getting shocked while driving.

Tip: If the car has only has one starter wire, touch it to the exposed part of the connected power wires to start the car.

Step 6: Deal with additional security

Deal with additional security. In some cars the steering-wheel lock's bolt can be pried open by jamming a screwdriver between the top of the steering column and the steering wheel.

Tip: Newer cars have complex wheel locks and electronic key systems that are nearly impossible to circumvent without tools and in-depth knowledge.

Step 7: Turn the car off

Turn the car off by separating the power wires from each other. Now it's time to find that extra set of keys and head to the repair shop, pronto.

How To Pick A Door Lock With A Bobby Pin

Apply minimum torque to the tension wrench, insert the bobby pin into the keyway, make use of a vibrating motion, or scrubbing over the pins, after a few seconds, try to apply greater force to the tension wrench to turn the plug. If the pins do not set after several seconds, release the tension wrench and do it again. To make a feeler pick with a bobby pin , please check this video below

Locked yourself out of the house? Most common pin and tumbler locks can be picked with a little luck and finesse—so before you call a locksmith, try this.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A paperclip or safety pin
A tension wrench (sometimes called a torque wrench)
A second paperclip

Warning: Only pick your own locks—or you could wind up in a lot of trouble.

Step 1: Get a paperclip


Get a paperclip or safety pin and bend it straight. Now make a slight upwards bend at the very end.

Tip: You can buy a professional lock pick set at a hardware store. There is a basic size intended for American locks.

Step 2: Insert the wrench

Insert your wrench into the lower part of the keyhole—that is, the side opposite the one where the key's teeth would go in.

Step 3: Determine direction

Figure out which way the lock needs to be turned to open by turning the wrench clockwise and then counterclockwise. You'll feel which way has more give.

Step 4: Turn the lock

Turn the lock the correct way with the wrench, putting slight pressure on it. Hold the wrench in place.

Step 5: Insert the paperclip

While keeping pressure on the lock, insert the end of the paperclip into the top part of the keyhole.

Step 6: Feel for pins

Feel around the keyhole with the paperclip until you locate the pins. If you're picking a common door lock, there will most likely be at least five of them in a row.

Tip: Before you start, many experts suggest "raking" the lock. Straighten your second paperclip, put a few bends at the wire's end, and—with no pressure on your wrench—shove it to the back of the lock. Now pull it out quickly, pressing against the top of the lock while gently turning your wrench. You might just set a pin or two that way.

Step 7: Push up

Now for the actual "picking." One at a time, push each pin up with the paperclip. Try to feel for the moment when the pin reaches its "unlocked" position. You should feel a slight give—or even hear a faint click.

Tip: Start with the pin furthest away from you—then move on to the next.

Step 8: Increase the pressure

As you go, apply slightly more pressure with the wrench until you have all the pins lifted up.

Step 9: Turn the wrench

Now turn the wrench fully. Voila! The lock will pop open.

How To Survive Without Air-Conditioning

These tips work!!!

Check out Howcast for other do-it-yourself videos from SheriffThompson and more videos in the Energy and Resource Conservation category.

No AC? Before you die of heatstroke, try these cool tricks.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A fan
Ice
Linen sheets
Spicy food
Wristbands
A bandanna
A window exhaust fan

Step 1: Make a half-assed air-conditioner


Mimic the cooling effects of AC by putting a heaping bowl of ice in front of a fan. Hey, a half-assed air-conditioner is better than no air-conditioner.

Step 2: Use linen sheets

Use linen sheets, which are twice as cool as cotton, the next best choice.

Tip: Leave the bed unmade in the summer. Putting a heavy spread on it will only trap heat and prevent the sheets from airing out.

Step 3: Eat spicy food

Eat spicy foods. They will make you sweat, which is your body's way of cooling you down.

Step 4: Take warm baths or shower

Take warm baths or showers, which will trigger your body to cool off. If you take a cold one, the opposite will happen, and you'll end up hotter than before you bathed.

Step 5: Wear cold wet wristbands

Wear wristbands that have been dunked in ice water, and tie a cold, wet bandanna around your neck. Keeping those areas chilled will cool off your entire body.

Step 6: Stay hydrated

Stay hydrated by drinking a lot of cool water. Don't drink the water too cold, or your body will go into overdrive trying to warm you up.

Step 7: Chill your bed linens

Stick your bed linens in the freezer for a few hours before bedtime. At the very least, chill your pillowcases.

Step 8: Suck hot air out, blow cold air in

Suck hot air out and blow cold air in by putting an exhaust fan in one window, facing out, and closing all the other windows except the ones in the room in which you're sleeping.

Step 9: Wear a wet T-shirt to bed

Soak a T-shirt in ice water, wring it out, and wear it to bed. You can also wet your hair. Hey, you may be a little damp, but at least you're cool.

How to Store Your Winter Clothes And Shoes

Make sure your winter wardrobe survives the summer by putting it away properly.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Acid-free tissue paper
Plastic trash bags, plastic boxes with mesh-type lids, or new cardboard boxes
Hangers with clips
A soft cotton cloth or shoe brush
Saddle soap
Leather conditioner
Suede cleaner
Fabric shoe bags
Old newspapers or tissue paper
A cool, dry storage space
Muslin sachet sacks or handkerchiefs
Dried lavender or cotton balls soaked in lavender oil
Wooden, thick plastic, or padded hangers
Plastic freezer bags (optional)

Step 1: Launder everything


Wash or dry-clean everything before putting it away. Insects feed on food and perspiration stains, even ones you can't see. And oxidation can turn an invisible stain into an unsightly yellow blotch.

Tip: Don't starch anything you iron—bugs like to munch on that, too.

Step 2: Remove dry-cleaning bags

Before storing dry-cleaned items, remove the plastic and air them out. Dry-cleaning bags can trap moisture inside, leading to mildew stains.

Step 3: Fold your sweaters

Fold your sweaters in acid-free tissue paper, which you can find online or in good stationery stores. Then store them in a heavy-duty plastic trash bag, a plastic box with a mesh-type lid, or in a new cardboard carton.

Tip: If you have an expensive cashmere sweater, put it in a plastic bag and stick it in your freezer for a few days. The cold will kill any moths and their larvae.

Step 4: Hang pants and skirts

Hang pants and skirts on hangers with clips. Leaving them folded over a hanger can leave a permanent mark.

Step 5: Buff your boots

Clean your shoes and boots. For leather, brush away dirt with a cotton cloth or shoe brush, polish them with saddle soap, and apply leather conditioner. For suede, use cleaning tools and products made specifically for that material.

Tip: Check shoes before storing them to see if any need new tips, soles, or heels. It will save you the effort in the spring.

Step 6: Stuff and stash

Store footwear in cardboard boxes or fabric shoe bags. Stuff the boots with old newspapers or plain tissue paper so they'll retain their shape.

Tip: Never store leather shoes in plastic bags; they may mildew.

Step 7: Find a cool, dry place

Store clothes in a cool, dry place—not the attic or basement. Or ask your dry cleaner about seasonal storage; it's usually offered for a nominal fee.

Step 8: Make your own moth chasers

Instead of using mothballs, which are toxic, make natural moth repellants by filling muslin sachet sacks with dried lavender. Or soak some cotton balls in lavender oil, put them in the bags, and stick them in closets and drawers.

Step 9: Use heavy hangers

Hang coats and jackets on wooden, thick plastic, or padded hangers. Leaving them on flimsy wire hangers all summer can cause them to become misshapen.

How to Clean Your Coffee Maker

Make your coffee maker sparkle with these easy tips.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A drip coffee maker
White vinegar
Ice cubes
Table salt or rock salt
Dishwasher detergent
A dish brush
Baking soda
Alka-Seltzer tablets
Denture tablets
A fresh lemon

Step 1: Clean the machine


Clean the inside of your coffee maker by running a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water though the machine. Do two runs with water afterward to remove the vinegar.

Tip: You can substitute a half dozen Alka-Seltzer or denture tablets, a quarter of a cup of baking soda, or the juice of a fresh lemon for the vinegar.

Step 2: Get ice and salt

To get your carafe looking like new, try this barista trick. Toss a handful of ice cubes and a couple of teaspoons of salt—rock or table—into the carafe.

Step 3: Swish vigorously

Swish vigorously for a minute or two.

Step 4: Rinse thoroughly

Rinse thoroughly.

Tip: If you have a stainless-steel carafe, fill it with boiling water, add a few tablespoonfuls of powdered dishwasher detergent, let it sit overnight, then swish with a dish brush and rinse.

Step 5: Fill with water and baking soda

To get rid of any lingering vinegar smell in the carafe, fill it with warm water, add a teaspoon of baking soda, let it sit for a few minutes, and rinse well. You're ready for a delicious cup of coffee!

Creating Your Future

The questions of life may call to you. You may wonder about your purpose. You may feel out of place, disconnected, just a bit out of sync. You may want to find clarity; to find the stillness in your mind. That elusive quality where time loses all meaning. You may not even know what it is that you seek but you sit there in your skin and you know something is making you uncomfortable.

Well, I'm here to tell you that it's okay. It's not unusual or abnormal. The bigger questions of life and the role you want to play in that are great questions! Important questions! To not ask them and seek your own answers would resign you to an existence of numbness and one day, possibly regret. But it doesn't have to be that way. It's never too late and there is no deadline.

The journey itself can be a tremendous reward. And don't be fooled! The pursuit of worthy goals and self-discovery is not easy. There will be plenty of tough times, inner soul searching, periods of enormous movement and change, periods of stagnation and possibly even despair. There will be times when you think you have found that groove you've always been looking for and then there will be times when you feel as though you haven't a hope in the world of finding your place. This is normal.

Everyone who experiences life will encounter variations of questions pertaining to their values that will challenge them at crossroads in life. Sometimes we heed these inner callings but often times, external forces to our sense of security in the world will push these inner callings deep into the mud. Instead we are fearful of change or to focused on the negatives or "what if" scenarios. So we play it safe and ignore our inner callings.

We're all looking for "that career" that will reward us in the way we need to be rewarded. For some it may be money. For others it may be prestige, recognition and yet someone else it is just the fact they get to "do what they love doing." Everyone will have a unique journey to reach their discovery. The journey will be made intentionally or unintentionally. It will be confused and painful or it can be enlightened by your own self-awareness. Don't get so focused on the goal that you don't get the full experience of the journey. The journey is so critical.

During the journey your experiences will offer you with so many valuable clues about yourself. Who you are. What makes you thrive. What puts you to sleep. The kind of people you like to work with. The environments you prefer. All of these experiences and many many more specific pieces relevant to you, your profession, passion, skills, and personality. All of them can be incorporated into your goal.

You, your life, your values, and beliefs, and many other things, will change. So keep dreaming, keep looking at the goal. But do so with the knowledge and understanding of your journey. Implement adjustments to your navigation system towards your goal if it changes. The experiences of your life and the decisions and their consequences will teach you so much. Allow yourself to take that journey, without knowing when it will end nor where it will take you. Get comfortable with not knowing. Keep seeking. Don't be afraid to take that next step. This is the very thing I too have to challenge myself on every day.

OSAMA BIN LADEN Is Dead!

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Wow this is shocking!

WASHINGTON — Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden is dead and the U.S. has his body, says a person familiar with developments.

President Barack Obama was to make the announcement shortly that after searching in vain for bin Laden since he disappeared in Afghanistan in late 2001, the Saudi-born extremist is dead, the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Details of the death were sparse. He was killed in a military operation in Afghanistan, according to sources, though it was unclear which countries were involved. CNN reported that the al-Qaida leader was killed in a mansion outside Islamabad, the Pakistani capital.

It is a major accomplishment for Obama and his national security team, having fulfilled the goal once voiced by Obama's predecessor, George W. Bush, to bring to justice the mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

President Obama said, there are very few moments in our lives where we have the privilege to witness history taking place. this is one of those moments. this is one of those times. the people of egypt have spoken. their voices have been hear. and egypt will never be the same. by stepping down, president mubarak responded to the egyptian peep's hunger for change. but this is not the end of egypt's transition. it's a beginning. i'm sure there will be difficult days ahead, and many questions remain unanswered. but i am confident that the people of egypt can find the answers and do so peacefully, constructively, and in the spirit of unity that has defined these last few weeks. for egyptians have made it clear that nothing less than genuine democracy will carry the day. the military has served patriotically and responsibly, as a caretaker to the state, and will now have to ensure a transition that is credible in the eyes of the egyptian people. that means protecting the rights of egypt's citizens, lifting the emergency law, revising the constitution and other laws to make this change irreversible and laying out a clear path to elections that are fair and free. above all, this transition must bring all of egypt's voices to the table for the spirit of peaceful protests and perseverance the egyptian people have shown can serve as a powerful wind at the back of this change. the united states will continue to be a friend and partner to egypt. we stand ready to provide whatever assistance is necessary and asked for, to pursue a credible transition to a democracy. i'm also confident that the same ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit he young people of egypt have shown in recent days can be harnessed to create new opportunities, jobs and businesses that allow the extraordinary potential of this generation to take flight. and i know that a democratic egypt can advance its role responsible leadership, not only in the region but around the world. egypt has played a pivotal role in human history for over 6,000 years. but over the last few weeks, the wheel of history turned at a blinding pace, as the egyptian people demanded their universal rights. we saw mothers and fathers carrying their children on their shoulders to show them what true freedom might look like. we saw young egyptians say, for the first time in my life i really count, my voice is heard. even though i'm only one person, this is the way real democracy works. we saw protestors chant, we are peaceful, again and again. we saw military that would not fire bullets at the people they were sworn to protect. we saw doctors and nurses rushing into the streets to care for those who were wounded, volunteers checking protestors to ensure that they were unarmed. we saw people of faith praying together and chanting, muslims, christians, "we are one" and we know that the strains between faiths still divide too many in this world, no single event will close that chasm immediately, these scenes reminus that we he need not be defined by our differences. we can be defines by the common humanity that we share. and above all, we saw a new generation emerge. a generation that uses their own creativity and talent and technology to call for a government that epresented their hopes and not their fears. a government that is responsive to their boundless aspirations, one egyptian put it simply, most people have discovered in the last few days that they are worth something, and this cannot be taken away from them anymore. ever. this is the power of human dignity and it could never be denied. egyptians have inspired us and they've done so by putting the lie to the idea that justice is guest gained through violence. for egypt the moral force of nonviolence, not terrorism, not mindless killing, but nonviolence, moral force, that bent the arc of history towards justice one more. while sights and sounds we heard weren't entirely egyptian we can't help but hear the echoes of history, echos from germans tearing down a wall, indonesian students taking to the streets, gandhi leading his people down path of justice. as martin luther king said in celebrating a new bir of a nation in ghana, trying to perfect his own, there's something in the soul that cries out for freedom. those were the cries that came from tahrir square and the entire world has taken note. today belongs to the people of egypt and the american people are moved by these scenes in cairo and across egypt because of who we are as a people and the kind of world we want our children to grow up in. the word tahrir means liberation. it's a word that speaks to that something in our souls that cries out for freedom. forever more it will remind us of the egyptian people, of what they did, of the things that they stood for, and how they changed their country and in doing so changed the world. thank you.

Connect with Your Body

When we're in the creative flow, we can sometimes forget we even have a body, because our minds are exploding with color, sounds, words and images. But when unhealthy habits sap your body of its vitality and strength, your creativity and productivity will be sapped as well.

What could be more frustrating than the interruption of your creative flow by an uninvited headache, back spasm, dullness of mind or the "shakes"?

I once heard the expression that as a guitar player, I'm a "small muscle athlete" – meaning I need to warm up those muscles and treat them well. Perhaps as artists we're ALL small muscle athletes. After all, we do need a good measure of physical endurance to get through our creative tasks.

Whether it's sitting hunched over an easel, the repetitive movements of playing a musical instrument, the stamina to stand and walk on stage throughout an entire show or sitting at a computer keyboard for most of the day, our creative tools all require the use of the body.

To keep that body strong and resilient takes daily attention.

Day-to-day self-care practices such as getting enough sleep, eating three healthy and balanced meals that are evenly timed throughout the day (plus healthy snacks if you need them), moving your body actively and drinking enough water are all essential for taking care of your body.

Taking care of the body also affects the mind. Fatigue, malnutrition, inactivity and dehydration will all have adverse effects on the mind and the ability to problem solve, concentrate and connect ideas.

The Creative Cycle and Self-Care

Touring with a band, rehearsing for a show or burning the midnight oil to finish a painting before a gallery opening, are all examples of extraordinary circumstances where we might relax our self-care discipline and adopt a whole new set of rules.

Then, when the show or tour is over or the piece is finished, we sometimes sink into an anti-climactic "low" or a period of transition before we get back into the creative flow again.

The daily practices you keep when things are "normal" will build resilience for the times when these extraordinary circumstances come up. They also build habits and healthy living skills that you can draw on when life gets more challenging.

Put it into play

One of the best practices for a healthy body, mind and spirit is to get enough sleep and rest. Tonight, end your evening activities a half hour early and spend that time winding down. Release the worries of the day by writing or speaking about them. Calm yourself with a bath, tea, massage, music or a good read that doesn’t remind you of your work.

We can all come up with reasons why we can't exercise, we can't make different food choices and we can't focus more on our health.

You have a unique creative gift to share with the world, but your creativity relies on a sound mind and body.

So which of your reasons for not taking care of yourself are more important than that?

Martin Luther King, Jr. "I have a dream"

Martin Luther King, Jr. was born Michael King, Jr. on January 15, 1929. He was 39 when he died.

Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American clergyman, activist, and prominent leader in the African American civil rights movement. He is best known for being an iconic figure in the advancement of civil rights in the United States and around the world, using nonviolent methods following the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi. King is often presented as a heroic leader in the history of modern American liberalism.

A Baptist minister, King became a civil rights activist early in his career. He led the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott and helped found the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1957, serving as its first president. King's efforts led to the 1963 March on Washington, where King delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech. There, he expanded American values to include the vision of a color blind society, and established his reputation as one of the greatest orators in American history.

In 1964, King became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to end racial segregation and racial discrimination through civil disobedience and other nonviolent means. By the time of his death in 1968, he had refocused his efforts on ending poverty and stopping the Vietnam War.

King was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee. He was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977 and Congressional Gold Medal in 2004; Martin Luther King, Jr. Day was established as a U.S. federal holiday in 1986.

The full version of Martin Luther King's famous "I have a dream" speech.
