Hello friends,
I thought to introduce myself and say that I am thrilled to have found a place like this. My name is Dani and I'm a 20 year old chemistry undergrad.
Anyway, just wanted to share a link with you all, it is an amazing site that posts up academic research on various and numerous types of work in medicine, science, and plants as well as other kinds of academic research in other fields.
http://www.academicjournals.org/index.htm
Might be fun for those of you out there like to browse studies and see whats going on in the field.
Well that's all for now, I hope to have great conversations with you all. |

Ephemeral Mists is the newest side project by composer Brett Branning (The synthetic dream foundation & Abandoned Toys). The debut album, "Moon Ritual" is out now on Mythical records.
The sound of the project is best described as downtempo ambient electronics mixed with ethnic world musics in the vein of "Karma" era Delerium, Amethystium, and Dead Can Dance. Its an incredibly powerful cd to use as yoga music and Reiki music. A beautiful creation and I highly recommend it to anyone into newage styles of music. |

I was wondering if people thought that any of these minerals would mess with my period. Bladderwrack kelp, selenionmetionine (organic selenium), vit d3, magnesium, and a multi. I'm trying to figure out if I've messed something up internally and what it might be. If I need to stop taking things or if you think that none of these should have an effect.
Thanks! |

| » Mycophage, patent medicines and cabaret shot girls |
|---|
So I picked two lovely Amanita muscaria var. formosas yesterday and from what I've been reading they aren't the horrid danger that common "knowledge" claims. The one ID book I have does say that the US versions cause more physical problems then the Siberian ones, but gives no evidence to back it up. The author isn't one of us, and I kind of feel that he's just covering his own ass. Any one have any thoughts on this, or any thing else related to these lovely sacraments?
On another note, got a little story to share...
Over the weekend I went to a party and carried with me Professor Potter's Miracle Elixer, the medicine you need to keep going ALL NIGHT LONG! When asked what was in it, "Every stimulant I had in my house I could legally share. Mugwort, damiana, yerba mate, Inkos Energy Tea, coca leaf, bee pollen, raw sugar, ginger, and caffeine pills. I'm known as an explorer of the outer spheres and people should have known better then to take such words lightly, they kept coming back for more...even when I warned them "only need a few sips." Of course the next day people kept coming up and whining "what did you do to me, I was so fucked up, I still haven't slept." I'm rather happy with my formulations, the flavour was splendid and it was bloody potent. I've decided there's been a real need for patent medicines in this modern world, so I'm ordering bulk 4oz jars, designing labels and going into business. I'll be able to circumvent liquor laws at my circus and offer a much healthier variety of alternatives. I can't see anyone building a real case against home made energy drinks being sold along side tea and coffee at a show.
On this note, I was at Lunacy Cabaret in Toronto (best damn show around!) in June and there was a shot girl with a cannabis shot and an herbal ecstasy shot. She gave my friend and I a grassy test tube to split and from 1/2 a tube I had a wonderful warm fuzzy feeling all night long. I don't think there was any alcohol in it and I'm stumped on how to make it. If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear. With luck I'll be going back in a few weeks and will try her other flavour and maybe even exchange recipes with her. If you ever end up in TO when their show is playing, make sure to bring an extra 15$, the herbal E was 10 and the other was 5 a shot, and the grass one was more then worth it.

| » 10x Blue Lotus Dry Extract |
|---|
Hey everyone,
Quick question:
In your experience, what is the ideal way to ingest blue lotus dry extract?
i am a bit puzzled because extract means the constituents have already been extracted, so does it really make sense to infuse it in a wine?
smoking is a possibility, but i prefer a more gentle ingestion method especially with the more subtle spirits like blue lotus.
any suggestions, experiences or ideas would be appreciated. =)
peace ~~~

Just ran across this info:
Ethnobotanical Research Grant (deadline this year is 9/1)
http://www.shamansgarden.com/t-iamshaman-grant.aspx
"The program couldn't be more simple: Anyone from anywhere in the world is invited to submit a proposal in which you explain how you would use a grant of $5,000.00 in one of these Five Categories:
1. ETHNOBOTANICAL RESEARCH
2. ENTHEOGEN RESEARCH
3. ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION
4. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
5. GREENING YOUR WORLD
You don’t need to be a customer to apply; you only need to share a mutual desire to help preserve our freedom of thought, to help expand consciousness in some way, to add to the ripple effect that we hope will raise the awareness and the consciousness in relation to ethnobotanicals, rainforest destruction, and the continuing decimation of our Earth’s precious resources "
above and more info on the site.

Does anyone have any insight into kicking a tobacco addiction? Aside from the patches, lozenges, chantix, zyban, and the like that are more mainstream and that I'm more familiar with. I don't smoke, but a few of my loved ones are trying to quit and having all kinds of difficulty doing so. So I wanted to know what other stuff was out there.
Thanks!
