Science fair projects are required work for most junior high and high school students, and can be a large part of their science grade for the year. That’s why it’s important to do a worthwhile project that is proven to be successful. Of course, you can always put your own spin on things; you don’t have to copy someone else’s project step-by-step. As a matter of fact, most kids can figure out their own angle on an idea, without copying someone else’s complete project.

Morning showers will keep your flowers. Always water your garden in the morning so that your mimosa hostilis are dry by mid-day. This will keep down fungi and insect populations. Put some “gold” in the garden. I am not talking about real gold. I am talking about marigolds. Marigolds deter insects with their odor.

herbs and spices are another source of antioxidants compounds. Some choices that are especially tasty on pizza are basil, cumin, garlic, rosemary, oregano, and pepper. Don’t forget to sprinkle on some chili peppers and chives for added flavor and nutritional punch. Resist the urge to shake on the salt. Chances are you’re not deficient in sodium.

Etsy was introduced to me when I was reading the magazine, Creative Jewelry. There was an article about a graphic designer who began a website on etsy called, Thompson Designs. This was in March of 2010. Just weeks after reading the article, I started thinking about making my own website on etsy. (p.s. Thompson Designs created the web banner and avatars for Metal botany.) The first time I went to etsy I spent hours looking through all of the items. I couldn’t get enough of it!

St. Andrews in Fife, Scotland is the home of golf. It is hallowed ground or golf Mecca and even the pros, who play there at least once a year, are in awe of it. There are seven courses at St. Andrews, but it is the Old Course that is most revered.

The occurrence or distribution of the orchid around the world is in almost every habitat. While the largest portion is in the tropics, orchids are also found in the Arctic Circle, southern Patagonia and close to Antarctica.

The course was designed by Gary Player, who has received as much acclaim for his designing abilities as his talent as a golfer. One of his trademarks when it comes to golf course design is to incorporate architectural and landscaping techniques that enhance the natural beauty of the surroundings. In this case it also means that the players are protected from the larger animals that inhabit the area, such elephants and, of course, leopards.
