Spruce up your regular peanut butter cookies this holiday with a kiss. Adding a Hershey’s kiss to your regular peanut butter cookie puts a completely new twist on the taste.
2) Peanut Butter Blossoms
Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup softened butter
1 cup peanut butter
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon salt
1 bag of Hershey’s kisses
Start by mixing the white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together and then add both of the eggs and the vanilla.
Tip: Again, let the butter soften on it’s own and use a double dose of vanilla if you are using vanilla extract.
In a different container, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix it in with the other ingredients. Once the mixture is consistent throughout, add the peanut butter.
Tip: If the consistency is loose, make sure to add in a little more flour.
Bake them at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 8 minutes or until the cookies are just about golden brown.
Tip: For this type of cookie, use a light colored baking sheet.
When you take the cookies out of the oven, the tops should be slightly impressionable. Press one chocolate kiss into each cookie.
Then put the cookies back in the oven for no more than 30 seconds. Take them out and let them cool before removing them from the pan. As they cool, the cookie and the chocolate will set and hold together nicely.
Tip: Put a slice of bread in this container to be sure the cookies maintain their freshness (Yochim, Beverly. Personal interview. 31 Oct. 2014.).

ADHD. These medications help improve the signs and symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity, sometimes dramatically. Examples include Concerta, Metadate, Ritalin, Dexedrine and Adderall XR. Stimulant drugs are available in short-acting and long-acting forms (Hallowell & Ratey, 2005). The right dose varies from adult to adult, and child to child. It may take some time to find the correct dose. The dose may need to be adjusted if significant side effects occur or as you or your child matures.
Alternative Medicine
Many parents of children with ADHD and adults diagnosed with ADHD want to know if there are other options out there besides taking stimulants. Some believe in a more realistic and “natural way” of managing ADHD. There's little
research that indicates that alternative medicine treatments
can reduce ADHD symptoms. Before considering any alternative
interventions, talk with your doctor to determine if the
therapy will be safe. Some alternative medicine treatments that
have been tried, but are not yet fully proved scientifically. They
include:
• Yoga, meditation and exercise. Doing regular yoga routines or
meditation and relaxation techniques may help you relax and
learn discipline, as well as helping your mood and anxiety. Any
form of exercise is likely to do the trick. It helps kids and adults
with ADHD release energy in a healthy, constructive way.
• Special diets. Most diets that have been promoted for ADHD involve eliminating foods thought to increase hyperactivity, such as sugar, caffeine, common allergens such as wheat, milk and eggs. Some diets recommend eliminating artificial food colorings and additives or to be gluten free. So far, studies haven't found a consistent link between diet and improved symptoms of ADHD.
• Mirrors. Researchers claim that having a child complete tasks in front of a mirror may help children with ADHD stay focused. The mirrors act as a coach to remind them they're getting off task. In one study, the more time ADHD kids spent looking in the mirror, the better they were at completing the puzzle they were given. The mirror method only works if the child has a clear diagnosis of ADHD. In normal children, the mirrors may actually decrease attention and performance.

have major problems in one or more areas of their life, such as their career, finances, or family responsibilities.
• When did the symptoms start? Since ADHD starts in childhood, the doctor or therapist will look at how early the symptoms appeared. If you are an adult, can you trace the symptoms back to your childhood?
• How long have the symptoms been bothering you or
your child? Symptoms must have been going on for at
least 6 months before ADHD can be diagnosed.
• When and where do the symptoms appear?
The symptoms of ADHD must be present in multiple
settings, such as at home and school. If the symptoms only appear in one environment, it is unlikely that ADHD is to blame (Grohol & Martin, 2013).
3 Types of ADHD in Children
Doctors may classify symptoms as the following types of ADHD:
• Combined type (inattentive/hyperactive/impulsive). Children with this type of ADHD show all three symptoms. This is the most common form of ADHD.
• Hyperactive/impulsive type. Children show both hyperactive and impulsive behavior, but for the most part, they are able to pay attention.
• Inattentive type. Formerly called attention deficit disorder (ADD). These children are not overly active. They do not disrupt the classroom or other activities, so their symptoms might not be noticed (Hallowell & Ratey, 2005).
What problems are faced?
ADHD is considered a common neuro-behavioral disorder in children marked by being overactive, trouble paying attention and problems controlling impulsive behaviors who often experience poor academic performance, behavior problems, and difficulties with social interaction.
Treatment of ADHD
Standard treatments for ADHD in children include medications, education, training and counseling. These treatments can relieve many of the symptoms of ADHD, but they don't cure it. Currently, stimulant drugs (psychostimulants) are the most commonly prescribed medications for

Motherless
As a kid, you probably saw at least one Disney film or least part of one, right? It’s hard for parents to get their children to sit down for dinner, let alone for a whole movie. A lot of children don’t realize that a lot of Disney characters don’t have mothers, and if they did, the main characters usually loose them shortly into the movie. Some have no parents at all. Some people believe it’s because the movies are about learning how to grow up and being there is so little time to squish it all into a 90 minute video, they simply take the parents out of the equation because it forces the characters to step up. Though this may be true, others believe it’s because Walt Disney’s mother died and his father had to be taken to the hospital due to their furnace leaking. Sources think Disney felt responsible because he bought the house for his parents and had his own crew working on the furnace (The Huffington Post).
About Walt Disney
On December 5, 1901, Walter Elias "Walt" Disney was born in Hermosa, Illinois. Along with his brother, Roy, Disney co-founded Walt Disney Productions. This became one of the best-known motion-picture production companies in the world. Disney was a creative animator and came up with the cartoon character Mickey Mouse. During his lifetime, Disney won 22 Academy Awards, and was the founder of the famous theme parks Disneyland and Walt Disney World (Networks Television, n.d.).
Disney’s Early Life
Walt Disney’s father, Elias Disney, was an Irish-Canadian, while his mother, Flora Call Disney, was German-American. Disney had four other siblings; four boys, including Disney, and one girl. During most of their childhood they lived in Marceline, Missouri. This is where Disney began drawing, painting and selling pictures to neighbors and family friends. His family moved to Kansas City In 1911, where Disney developed his interests in trains, taking after his uncle, Mike Martin, who was a train engineer. Disney would later work a summer job with the railroad, selling snacks and newspapers to travelers (Networks Television, n.d.).
Disney took drawing and photography classes and was a contributing cartoonist for the school paper at McKinley High School in Chicago. He also took courses at the Chicago Art Institute during the night. When Disney was only 16 years old, he dropped out of school to join the army. He was soon rejected for being underage, so he joined the Red Cross and was sent to France for a year to drive an ambulance (.Networks Television, n.d.).
The Early Cartoons
Disney moved back to Kansas City to pursue a career as a newspaper artist from France in 1919. His brother Roy got him a job at the Pesmen-Rubin Art Studio, where he met cartoonist known as Ub Iwerks. After that, Disney worked at the Kansas City Film Ad Company, where he made commercials based on cutout animation and soon began experimenting with a camera, doing hand-drawn cel animation, and decided to open his own animation business. From the ad company, he recruited Fred Harman as his first employee. The two made a deal with the local Kansas City theater to screen their cartoons, Laugh-O-Grams, which became hugely popular. However, by 1923, the studio became burdened with debt, and Disney had to declare bankruptcy (Networks Television, n.d.).
Later, Disney and his brother put their money and moved to California with Iwerks. There they began the Disney Brothers' Studio. The three’s very first deal was with New York distributor Margaret Winkler, to distribute their cartoons, Alice. They also invented a character called Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. During that time, Disney hired an ink-and-paint artist named Lillian Bounds. After a brief courtship, the couple married. A few years down the road, Disney discovered that Margret and her husband, Charles Mintz,, stole the rights to Oswald and all of Disney’s animators, except for Iwerks. Because of this, the Disney brothers, their wives and Iwerks produced a character Walt had been developing; the now famous, Mickey Mouse (Networks Television, n.d.).
Death
Within a few years of making plans for a new theme park and Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow in Florida, Disney was diagnosed with lung cancer. At the age of 65, Disney died on December 15, 1966. After he died, Roy finished the plans of the Florida theme park, which opened under the name Walt Disney World in 1971 (Networks Television, n.d.).
The thing that Belle, Arial, Princess Jasmine and a handful of other Disney Characters all have in common is that they don’t have mothers. Is this about Disney’s own mother’s death? Is it to cause the characters to grow up faster? We, at Eccentric Magazine, challenge our readers to decide for yourself the next time you sit down to watch a classic Disney movie.

Deer tend to move at dawn and dusk. (Ross). Deer, mostly bucks, move at dawn and dusk whether it is 20 degrees out or 80 degrees out. Weather does not affect when they move during the day. If a hunter is going to head out to the stand, than dawn and dusk would be the times to make sure he or she should be in their stands. Deer can and will be shot during the day, but the best chance to catch a buck walking on a path by a stand would be when the sun just rises and when it is almost hidden behind the earth. Breeding season is a major affect to this cycle though making deer move all day when they are in rut. This is because a buck is trying to find a female and will be on the prowl for long periods of time. The reason for them moving at dawn and dusk more is because deer tend to feed more in the morning and in the afternoon. Studies by the QDMA, or Quality Deer Management Association, have shown that the deer they track have shown this sign to move early and late the most.
The second thing deer have a habit of doing is to form a “home”. This is a couple mile area where a deer spends about 90% of its time. This is a great thing to know because watching for deer throughout the year can help to figure out if any deer have made a home in the area. According to the article, “Behavioral Patterns of Whitetail Deer”, deer do of course take an almost vacation type trip at times too. It is impossible to predict when a deer will take this vacation, or how far it will travel on this vacation. A deer’s vacation can be anywhere from a month or two to a couple weeks. The only tricky part about a deer’s home is that a doe or buck would unlikely lay down in the same spot two consecutive nights in a row. This is to throw off any predators from just waiting for the deer to come back, so the predator doesn’t have an easy meal for the next couple of days. A deer will find several areas that are great for dosing off for a bit in this home area, but will never fall asleep for long periods of time. This keeps them alert most of the time. Deer usually feel comfortable in their home area, so if some deer tend to be seen in the same area all year it is most likely the deer made a home and feels more comfortable in this area rather than any other.

Inside The Minds of Deer
Deer have predictable minds. How they react to situations is worth planning for if deer hunting is a passion. Deer have schedules and tend to stick to them if they are not disturbed. When they are disturbed, they still tend to do the same things out of habits and teachings from their parents. Getting to know some ways of finding a deer, or even knowing how they will react when being shot at, can help a lot during this year’s shotgun season. Bucks have a tendency of falling on certain habits during specific situations.
Pressured bucks have an ability to change their habits on the spot. A pressure for them could be being shot at, or losing woodland areas to live in. The use of technology can show that deer have different habits at various times of the year. They might eat out in an open field during the summer, but when winter comes around, they might stay in the woods 24/7. Every buck has different traits, giving that deer a different lifestyle pattern. Another pressure could be how many hunters are on the land. Many hunters in one woods or area will affect how deer will go through those woods. Paths that deer walk on defer between primarily when it is cold out or even when it is warm out based on the deer’s habits. A path also could be a night path, meaning they only use it when it is dark outside. Predicting what a deer is going to do is close to the same to what the deer population, as a whole, would do under the same situations.
