Hi All,
I recently found two different newspaper tid bits on a couple thread subjects. I know not how to pick them off the web and send them so I am just going to type in the info as it appeared.
"You can stay natural while fighting mold by using tea tree oil. Fill a small reusable spray bottle with two cups of water and three drops of pure tea tree essential oil. Everyonce in a while spray down your walls with solution and wipe dry." From the Times Redorder in New Philadelphia, OH, no byline given.

"More than a third of Americans shoose to be cremated when they die, but the days of scattering ashes or keeping them in an urn may soon be gone. Today, a company caqlled LifeGem turns cremated remains into synthetic diamonds. Ashes can also be incorporated into glass balls or pottery. Another business will disperse ashes over the ocean--as part of a fireworks display. Finally, people can choose to sleep with the fishes. Several companies create man=made reefs containing ashes for the ocean floor." Parade, April 20, 2008, Lyric Wallwork Winik and Stephen Dignan

Just thought you might want to know. ;^) Kim H.
