The Salvation Army is pleased to announce it was recently awarded a $519,000 grant from United Way of the Midlands. Thanks to the generosity of the United Way donors, more than 10 Salvation Army social service programs will receive funding.

With the help of this grant, The Salvation Army is able to offer services to people of all ages. Funded programs include the Community Counseling Center, Winter Night Watch and the Kroc Life Skills Program.
"United Way's support for these programs is greatly appreciated by The Salvation Army, and many lives will change in a positive way, thanks to all who made a contribution," said Major Paul Fleeman, divisional commander of The Salvation Army.

By Ronnie DahlFox 2 News ReporterTROY, Mich. (WJBK) -- The Hostess brand -- to so many it's more than just sugary treats and baked goods. It's part of their childhood and everyone has a favorite.But the company announced Friday it's going out of business. Now the mad dash is on to stockpile the sweet treats, especially the much loved Twinkies.At the Hostess outlet store in Southgate, the shelves are pretty much empty. There was not a Twinkie or a fruit pie or a Ding Dong to be found. It's pretty much the same thing at stores all across metro Detroit.We asked Holiday Market baker Paul Caddy if there were any Twinkies in his store."No there is not. Not since this morning. We don't have any of the Hostess stuff left, so it's been pretty bare on our shelves over there."The Holiday Market has a lot of goodies in the bakery section to blow a person's calorie count for the day, but the Hostess section is empty. Just a bag or two on Donettes left, and there is not another shipment to replenish the shelves.The company's CEO is blaming the demise on a strike by its bakers. 18,500 employees will lose their jobs, including nearly 400 in Michigan. Hostess outlet stores will close their doors for good in the coming days, bringing an end to an era."It's like an American staple in my opinion," Caddy said. "People have been eating it for years and growing up their kids will eat it and so on and so forth."

It's National Save for Retirement Week! Certified financial planners Nancy Coutu and John Gajkowski from Money Managers Financial Group shared a simple acronym to make sure you're ready for retirement.
R - Risk tolerance: Knowing how much risk to take on can keep your portfolio from suffering a catastrophic loss.
E – Expenses: Hidden and costly fees can negatively hurt your portfolio, making you earn much less in the long run.
T – Taxes: Without effective planning, taxes can take a big chunk out of your retirement savings.
I – Inflation: If your savings and investments are making the rate of inflation or less, you are losing money, not saving it.
R – Rollover: Make sure you don't leave your 401(k) at your old company, and work with an expert to determine if rolling over to a Roth IRA would be wise choice.
E - Employer contribution: If you have a company match for your 401(k), make sure you are taking advantage of this free money. If you have a pension, evaluate whether it's stable, and make sure you have a backup plan.

Narrow your search
At an event in San Francisco, Google today unveiled the next version of Android, and while it doesn't appear to be a major departure from the last, it does bring its share of improvements, including mult-user restricted profiles.
Pricing not available
If you're looking for a compact Android handset, the LG Optimus F3 will satisfy prepaid customers. As an on-contract phone, however, look to other free smartphones that are better.
You won't be left too far behind without it, but Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is a worthy update that brings improved voice search, notifications, and sharing.
Pricing not available
Today Google and LG announced that the Google TV operating system on LG's Google TVs would be updated to Jelly Bean in the third quarter of 2013.
This cheap Android notebook hits a low price point by apparently sacrificing, well, everything.
The 13-inch Ativ Q is three devices in one: a Windows laptop, a Windows tablet, and an Android slate. We came to grips with it.
Pricing not available
The Asus Memo Pad ME172V won't set you back a ton, but with much better choices only $50 away, you should simply pay more now and regret less later.
The Alcatel One Touch Star is an affordable way to put Jelly Bean in your pocket.
Pricing not available
The Samsung Galaxy Young may be young at heart, but its specs aren't exactly bursting with youthful vigour.
Pricing not available
The S6000, A3000, and A1000 are the latest Android tablets from the Chinese manufacturer of ThinkPad laptops.

An Atlanta woman has filed a lawsuit claiming that former NBA great Michael Jordan is the father of her teenaged son.Pamela Smith filed a "complaint of determination of paternity and support" in Fulton County Superior Court, saying that the Hall of Fame player and current Charlotte Bobcats owner is the father of her 16-year-old son, Taj Reynolds,The suit requests that Jordan take a paternity test, pay child support and share medical costs not covered by insurance. The lawsuit also requests that the boy's last name be changed to Jordan and for the judge to issue him a new birth certificate. Jordan's publicist said that the basketball legend had no comment.April Love, a friend speaking for Pamela Smith and Taj Reynolds, told FOX 5 that the couple met in Chicago and began dating in 1988. That relationship lasted two years, according to Love.She maintains that Taj was later conceived in 1995. Jordan was married at the time. "Pamela had no choice but to support her son and his desire to forge a relationship with his father. That's why she is now speaking out and prompting Michael to do the right thing and be a father to his son. Bottom line, Pamela was a girlfriend not a baby's mama and Taj was conceived in love," Love said in a statement. The paternity was kept quiet until Taj Reynolds released a YouTube video in December, claiming to be Jordan's son. A court date is scheduled for March 12 in Fulton County.

This guy bought a new Mercedes and was out on the interstate for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through his hair and he decided to open her up. As the needle jumped up to 80 mph, he suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind him.
"There's no way they can catch a Mercedes," he thought to himself and opened her up further.
The needle hit 90, 100 ... and then the reality of the situation hit him.
"What am I doing?" he thought and pulled over.
The cop came up to him, took his license without a word and examined it and the car.
"It's been a long day, this is the end of my shift and it's Friday the 13th. I don't feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for speeding that I haven't heard before, you can go."
The guy thinks for a second and says, "Last week my wife ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back!"
The cop said "Have a nice weekend!"

Rates for Grades 7-12 will be shown for all campuses. Although most campuses do not serve both Grades 7-8 and Grades 9-12, if a campus reports students in both grade spans, both rates will be shown regardless of the number of students served.

International students who have completed college coursework after completing secondary school, regardless of the amount of credits earned, should apply as a international transfer student.
All international applicants must show proof of English proficiency at the time of application. Please review the different pathways for fulfilling the minimum English proficiency requirement.
Official academic records are required from all previous institutions in your education history. It is the responsibility of all applicant's to supply all required academic records. If you are requesting records from a country or institution where you may have difficulty with timeliness or issuance, please make certain you request your documents allowing enough time for them to be received for your application.
We require the document in the original language when the issuing institution cannot issue in English. If it is issued in a language other than English, we also require an English translation.
Use the UW Course Equivalency Guide to find out how courses from a Washington State community or technical college will transfer to the University of Washington Bothell.
• UW Course Equivalency Guide
• UW Course Equivalency Guide User Manual
Post-baccalaureate is a matriculated status, reserved for students who are working toward a second bachelor's degree or preparing for entrance to graduate or professional school. Only a small number of applicants are admitted as post-baccalaureates because the University's primary commitment is to undergraduates who are completing the first bachelor's degree.
Post baccalaureate students who completed their degree at the UW Bothell or at another regionally accredited U.S. institution are exempt from the English composition requirement. However, the UW Bothell requires that all post-baccalaureate applicants who are not U.S. citizens demonstrate their English language proficiency by presenting a TOEFL or IELTS score.
The application of previous undergraduate-level courses toward graduation requirements will be determined by program faculty and advisors.
To students pursuing a first bachelor's degree, the Office of Admissions awards transfer credit according to the guidelines. Admissions reserves the right to accept or reject credits earned at other institutions of higher education.

Dallas, TX - The longtime voice of the iconic 52-foot-tall cowboy welcoming visitors says that his contract wasn't renewed.
Bill Bragg served as Big Tex's voice for the last 11 years.
Bragg says he's "shocked'' by the decision.
State Fair spokeswoman Sue Gooding said that Bragg's contract is handled from year to year, and that Bragg won't be offered a contract for the upcoming season.
She declined to specify what, if anything, led to the change.

Nintendo Network announced, will offer user accounts, DLC, more
Nintendo has officially announced the "Nintendo Network," a new name for its online efforts. First mentioned in Mario Kart 7, the new service will replace the "Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection" that was standard in Nintendo's last-gen efforts.
The Nintendo Network will cover both the 3DS and the Wii U. The service will be far more comprehensive than the online coverage Nintendo has previously offered, and will provide gamers with features made standard by Xbox Live and PlayStation Network.
Mario Kart 7 already offers "community" features akin to clans in other online-enabled games. That concept will be expanded in future online titles on Nintendo platforms. More significantly, the Nintendo Network will eventually offer a user ID system, beginning with the Wii U. Referred to as a "personal account," Nintendo hopes that by having identities (and not friend codes), multiple family members will be able to use the same system.
The Nintendo Network may also offer digital distribution of retail games. Nintendo has no set launch date for this feature, but notes that the "concept was built into the design of the Nintendo 3DS," and will be built into the Wii U as well.
Finally, the Nintendo Network will also provide downloadable content and add-ons. Square Enix's Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy will be the first game to provide DLC on the 3DS; additional songs can be purchased after release.
Nintendo has reiterated that its own DLC strategy will somehow be different from that of its competitors. The company has promised not to nickle and dime consumers with microtransactions, a popular business model for many freemium games. "Please note that Nintendo, as a software maker, does not plan to deploy businesses where our consumers cannot know in advance which item will appear as the result of their payment and they have to repeat the payments and, before they know it, they end up spending a huge amount of money in order to obtain the items they originally wanted to purchase."

Venita is amazing! It's always great seeing her. Always professional and efficient, but approachable. She definitely has skills that exceed her current placement. I'd give her a promotion or have her run the business! Kudos to Venita!John from Burton, MI

This is one of the best run businesses I have encountered. Service is superb and all of the employees are polite, efficient and knowledgeable. Congratulations!Judith from Chicago, IL

Neat. Clean. Liked the scheduled security walk-through to inspect property. Video surveillance. The reason for the lower score on being greeted promptly was due to employee being out on scheduled security inspection. Sign noting this was on the door.Mark from Lindenhurst, IL

The team at Uncle Bob's (#432) are great! We sold our condo but the home that we were going to purchase failed the home inspection so we were scrambling to find a bigger storage space AND a place to live in 3 days. The team at store 432 were on top of things and they made a chaotic situation less stressful.Yu-Wen from Evanston, IL

Storage unit is very accessible physically, and I especially appreciate the 24/7 access to the unit.Lois from Washington, DC
August 27, 2014
The only reason I didn't give highest scores on satisfaction was the price and how it increased so much so fast after I rented. The price is actually what prompted me to finish up my mother's estate and get the items out of storage.Debrah from Heath, TX

Relight garden fires for great fall color with sedums.
The common name for these beautiful plants is "Stonecrop" but it's not very common these days. In fact, most people now call the sedums "Sedum," and it's all due to one spectacular plant---Sedum "Autumn Joy," one of the most popular perennials of all time, with pinkish bloom. It's a must for late summer color.
Sedums are "succulents," which means they have thick leaves that store moisture, which tells you they do well in full sun and arid, rocky soil. Best of all, they are available now in a host of colors, from the taller ones, like "Autumn Joy" to the tiny closely-related ground covers called "Hens and Chicks" that you probably remember from your grandmother's garden.
Sedum Lime ZingerGorgeous, unique foliage creates a stunning display on the garden floor. Vibrant, bright-green leaves are edged in bright red, giving way to soft pink flowers from summer to fall. Lime Zinger is great for rock and container gardens. PPAF (Sedum)

What do you do after the doctor says your child has ADHD? The FOX Medical Team's Beth Galvin looks at how one family found some help. Reuben Davis was in the first grade when his teacher first noticed the signs he was struggling,"In Reuben, it was impulsiveness, you know, he would speak out of turn, he would move in times he wasn't supposed to move," said Silvia Davis, Reuben's mother. Sylvia took Reuben, who is now 12, to a psychologist for testing. That's when they got the diagnosis an increasing number of parents are hearing: ADHD."The first thing I went through was just denial. You know, he's just a boy. All boys are active. Everyone wants to diagnose every kid with ADHD," said Silvia Davis. WebMD and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta pediatrician Dr. Hansa Bhargava says it's pretty common for children to show signs of ADHD: difficulty focusing, impulsivity, hyperactivity. "But we have to be careful in terms of what symptoms are truly ADHD and what symptoms may be looking like ADHD, but aren't," said Bhargava. "For example, lack of focus in the classroom may be because the child may be frustrated, he can't see the blackboard, he can't hear properly, he might have a learning disability or there might be other things going on." Initially, the Davises wanted to help Ruben without medication, so they tried natural supplements, including omega-3 fatty acids, "But really just didn't see any difference at all," Sylvia Davis said. "Studies have shown that omega-3s, such as fish oil, does help, but generally helps much, much better if it's in conjunction with ADHD medications," said Bhargava. The Davises also got tougher about bedtimes, making sure that Reuben got enough sleep, and they started revamping their diet to eat healthier.The lifestyle changes helped, but gradually, they decided to try medication."We had to go through a long period of trying out different medicines and different dosages, some of which made his symptoms worse," said Sylvia Davis. "That was really hard; it took probably a year to get it right."Something else that can help: structure, both at school and home."For example, have a chart at home that says, 'This is when you do homework. This is the place to do it.' Have backpacks in a certain place," Bhargava said. Reuben now works with a therapist who is helping him find ways to cope with some of his challenges. He's come a long way."Part of it is the fact that Ruben has worked really hard, and he has figured out some techniques that he uses for self-regulation, and he's gotten older," said Sylvia Davis. "I personally think people don't outgrow ADHD, I think they just learn how to cope with it."Dr. Bhargava says getting a good night's sleep is really critical for kids who struggle with attention deficit disorders, but it's also a big challenge because they often struggle with sleep.The Davises take bedtime seriously. Reuben says it's not always fun, but he does feel better if can get eight hours of sleep.
The FOX Medical Team's Beth Galvin shows us new tactics doctors are trying, to help patients tackle anxiety.

Low back pain refers to pain that you feel in your lower back. You may also have back stiffness, decreased movement of the lower back, and difficulty standing straight.
Acute back pain can last for a few days to a few weeks.
Backache; Low back pain; Lumbar pain; Pain - back; Acute back pain; Back pain - new; Back pain - short-term; Back strain - new
Most people will have at least one backache in their life. Although this pain or discomfort can happen anywhere in your back, the most common area affected is your low back. This is because the low back supports most of your body's weight.
Low back pain is the number two reason that Americans see their health care provider -- second only to colds and flu. Many back-related injuries happen at work. There are many things you can do to lower your chances of getting back pain.
You'll usually first feel back pain just after you lift a heavy object, move suddenly, sit in one position for a long time, or have an injury or accident.
Acute low back pain is most often caused by a sudden injury to the muscles and ligaments supporting the back. The pain may be caused by muscle spasms or a strain or tear in the muscles and ligaments
Causes of sudden low back pain include:
Low back pain may also be due to:
You may feel a variety of symptoms if you've hurt your back. You may have a tingling or burning sensation, a dull achy feeling, or sharp pain. Depending on the cause and severity, you also may have weakness in your legs or feet.
Low back pain can vary widely. The pain may be mild, or it can be so severe that you are unable to move.
Depending on the cause of your back pain, you may also have pain in your leg, hip, or the bottom of your foot.
When you first see your health care provider, you will be asked questions about your back pain, including how often it occurs and how severe it is.
Your health care provider will try to determine the cause of your back pain and whether it is likely to quickly get better with simple measures such as ice, mild painkillers, physical therapy, and proper exercises. Most of the time, back pain will get better using these approaches.
During the physical exam, your health care provider will try to pinpoint the location of the pain and figure out how it affects your movement. See: Back pain - when you see the doctor
Most people with back pain improve or recover within 4 - 6 weeks. Therefore, your health care provider will probably not order any tests during the first visit unless you have certain symptoms.
Tests that might be ordered include:
To get better quickly, take the right steps when you first feel pain.
Here are some tips for how to handle pain:
While sleeping, try lying in a curled-up, fetal position with a pillow between your legs. If you usually sleep on your back, place a pillow or rolled towel under your knees to relieve pressure.
A common misbelief about back pain is that you need to rest and avoid activity for a long time. In fact, bed rest is NOT recommended. If you have no sign of a serious cause for your back pain (such as loss of bowel or bladder control, weakness, weight loss, or fever), then you should stay as active as possible.
You may want to reduce your activity only for the first couple of days. Then, slowly start your usual activities after that. Do not perform activities that involve heavy lifting or twisting of your back for the first 6 weeks after the pain begins. After 2 - 3 weeks, you should gradually start exercising again.
If your pain lasts longer than one month, your primary care health care provider may send you to see either an orthopedist (bone specialist) or neurologist (nerve specialist).
If your pain has not improved after use of medicines, physical therapy, and other treatments, your doctor may recommend an epidural injection.
You may also see a:
Sometimes a few visits to these specialists will help back pain.
Many people will feel better within 1 week. After another 4 - 6 weeks, the back pain should be completely gone.
Call your health care provider right away if you have:
Also call if:
Exercise is important for preventing back pain. Through exercise you can:
It is also very important to learn to lift and bend properly. Follow these tips:
Other measures to prevent back pain include:
Learn to relax. Try methods such as yoga, tai chi, or massage.

A must book for students and practitioners.
The best book to learn from about the acupuncture points and meridians, both functions and locations. The illustrations are exceptionally helpfully and clear and the information about the points uses and functions are taken from many sources, primary and secondary, and espouse the reader to different historical trends and aproches in Chinese medicine not be limited to one or two ways of thinking.

Keeping weight in check, being active, and eating a healthy diet can prevent most cases of type 2 diabetes.
There's good news and bad news about type 2 diabetes, which used to be called adult onset diabetes. The bad news? It's striking people at younger and younger ages, and rates are skyrocketing globally as the population grows heavier and gets less physical activity. The good news? It's highly preventable.
Keeping weight in check and being physically active can help prevent most cases of the disease. Choosing a diet rich in whole grains and healthy fats adds even more protection—skip the refined grains and sugary soda. Limiting red meat—steak, hamburger, pork chops, and the like—and avoiding processed meat—bacon, hot dogs, and deli meats—can also help lower diabetes risk. Go for healthier protein sources instead, such as nuts, beans, poultry, and fish.
Here are five quick tips to help prevent diabetes:
1. Put exercise first—and put television last. Regular exercise by itself can cut diabetes risk. That it also helps keep weight in check adds even more benefit. Choose things you enjoy and do them every day. Too much television-watching ups diabetes risk—an increase of 20 percent for every 2 hours you watch. So trade some of your sit-time for fit-time.
2. Try to keep weight in check. Being a healthy weight is the best thing you can do to lower your risk of diabetes. Need to lose weight? Getting active and eating a healthy diet, with smaller portions, s-l-o-w-l-y are your best bets.
3. Choose healthy fats and proteins, and skip the red and processed meat. Sure, they've got long names, but a diet rich in mono and polyunsaturated fats can help lower your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Canola oil and olive oil are great choices, as are the fats in avocados, nuts, and seeds. For protein, replace the steaks, chops, hot dogs, and bacon with nuts, beans, poultry, or fish.
4. Focus on plant foods. A diet high in whole grains can help lower the risk of diabetes and keep appetite in check. Choose a good variety of whole grain foods prepared in interesting ways, such as Mollie Katzen's recipe for couscous-quinoa tabouli.
5. Cut back on refined carbs and sugary drinks. White bread, white rice, white pasta and potatoes cause fast and furious increases in blood sugar, as do sugary soft drinks, fruit punch, and fruit juice. Over time, eating lots of these refined carbohydrates and sugar may increase your risk of type 2 diabetes. To lower your risk—switch to whole grains and skip the sugar, especially the sugary drinks. Drink water, coffee or tea instead.

Insights into Likes, Dislikes, Motivations and Desires
The key to romancing a Virgo is simple elegance -- take your date out for a tasteful, stylish evening. But don't be too spendy -- your Virgo will be embarrassed by splashy shows of money, and will be more impressed by value rather than amount. Also keep in mind that Virgo rules the house of health, so a date with physical activity (especially outdoors) will be a hit. Or, for a more alternative idea, go for a joint spa treatment. Virgos also love animals, so a date that puts your Virgo in contact with them (like a trip to the zoo!) will earn you a smile.
Suggestions for the perfect date:
Go rollerblading, go hiking, feed the ducks, go to the museum, play miniature golf, take a walk in a botanical garden, go wine tasting or go to a wine bar, go to an art exhibit opening, spend a night in a Bed and Breakfast, go horse-back riding, go for a simple but elegant meal, take a walking tour of your city.

The Congress has established a number of government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs)—privately owned financial institutions that are federally chartered to fulfill a public mission of facilitating the flow of funds to housing and other sectors of the economy. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are the two largest GSEs, backing or holding about half of the $11 trillion of outstanding residential mortgage debt; those institutions have been under federal conservatorship since September 2008. The other GSEs are the Federal Home Loan Bank System, the Farm Credit System, and Farmer Mac. CBO analyzes the effects of the GSEs on the federal budget and on the sectors they are chartered to support.

Interview Summary John Stanger with Lou Kraar, FORTUNE May 11, 1977 Mr. Stanger began a brief capsule history of GECC...""our original purpose was to provide sales financing support for the sale of GE products. We found as the years went on we were financing other manufacturers1 appliances sold by our dealers and were making money in doing so. In the late 50's we reached a policy decision to become a general finance company serving industry. We began a separate component in 1960 within GECC whose purpose was to provide sales financing services generally to commercial and industrial distributors and dealers covering all types of equipment. Concurrently in the early 60's we decided to extend our service to the manufacturers and distributors of mobile homes. This was a well planned and well executed diversification program. Today we're engaged in nine separate fields of activity, seven of them being financing and two of them insurance."" Q. So much is said by people in GE that strategic planning locates opportunities. How is this done in this affiliate? A. The decision to diversify GECC was strategic planning working within the General Electric Co. I was present at many meetings where alternate fields were considered and schedules determined for entry into these fields. That was my introduction to it... the genesis of strategic planning in GECC. Q. When was this? A. In the early 60's. We had a long laundry list of potential fields. Then we would consider where our special expertise would enable us to make the strongest contribution. Were they growth fields? Etc For example, we looked at mobile homes in the 60's as a large potential growth field as we saw an increasing need for lower cost housing. Q. What happens when there's a change? Mobile homes, for example, are less of a field today. A. Yes, because it's growing more slowly now, we've started to look at new, more promising areas. So an area that had a high growth potential ten years ago may not be that way today. Q. Do you finance jet aircraft? A. Yes, we have $736 million of commercial jet aircraft leased to various airlines.

Hello again, everyone! My name is Elizabeth Dackson from Don't Call Me Betsy and I am so excited to share another Moda Bake Shop recipe with you all today! When I first saw photos of Half Moon Modern, I positively fell in love. I adore the bright, fun color palette of this collection and the fabulous prints, so I was super excited to get a chance to work with it. If you make a quilt using this Modern Halves quilt tutorial, I'd love to see it in my Flickr group!
1 fat quarter bundle of 32 fat quarters or more
1 1/3 yd border fabric
2/3 yd binding fabric
4 1/4 yds backing fabric
74" x 84' batting
1. Begin by unwrapping your fat quarter bundle and sorting your fat quarters by main color. Half Moon Modern has six different main colors, so I had a total of six piles.
2. Each fat quarter will create enough pieces for one entire block. As we'll be making a total of 32 blocks for this quilt, you will need to select a total of 32 fat quarters from your bundle to work with. We'll be mixing and matching the pieces we cut from each fat quarter to create a scrappy look for each block.
3. From each fat quarter, you will cut the following pieces:
Qty Size
Note: You can stack your fat quarters to maximize your cutting and save time!
4. Now that you've finished your cutting, we'll get started by picking one 4" square to start with, and then choosing your coordinating rings around your square. First, select two 1" x 4" pieces and two 1" x 5" pieces for the first ring. Next, select two 1.5" x 5" pieces and two 1.5" x 7" pieces for your second ring, followed by two 2.5" x 7" pieces and two 2.5" x 11" pieces for the third ring, and finally two 1.5" x 11" and two 1.5" x 13" pieces for the fourth and final ring. Once you're happy with your fabric choices, we'll get started on sewing.
5. Let's stitch your first block! Using a scant quarter-inch seam, first stitch your two 1" x 4" rings to either side of your 4" center square.
Press your seams open and then seam your 1" x 5" rings to finish your first ring. Press seams open, then flip your block over and press again to ensure the seams lie nice and flat.
6. Next, do the same with the next rings, starting first with your 1.5" x 5" rings and then your 1.5" x 7" rings. Press all seams open, then flip your block over and press again to ensure the seams lie nice and flat.
7. Repeat with your final two rings, starting first with your 2.5" wide pieces, then your 1.5" pieces to finish your first block.
|Use your 2.5" wide pieces to create the third ring
|Use your 1.5" wide pieces to create the fourth ring
8. You now have completed your first block! Repeat for all blocks. I found once I finished the first block and got the hang of building these blocks, it worked best for me to chain-piece several blocks at once, first picking out my fabrics for multiple blocks.
9. After you have finished sewing all 32 blocks, let's trim them uniformly. If your scant quarter-inch seams and pressing skills are 100% perfect, your blocks will be 13", but my blocks never are, so I trimmed each block down to 12.75" for uniformity. Once your blocks are trimmed, select one block to set aside out of the group. We will use this block to create corner setting triangles for the quilt and cut it up first. You'll make two long cuts across the corners of this block as shown below, which will create a total of four triangles. Set them aside for now.
10. With the remaining 31 blocks, you will cut along the diagonal of the block, from one corner to another, creating two perfectly symmetrical half square triangles. Make sure to hold your ruler firmly and cut slowly to ensure an accurate cut. Repeat for all blocks.
11. You will create a total of 62 half square triangles as a result of your cutting, and now comes the fun part - mixing and matching!
Pick one half square triangle to start with, and then pair it up with another half square triangle of another color. For my first pairing, I chose one of my blue half square triangles and paired it with a red one for a fun contrast.
Press your seams open, then flip the block over to press the seam fully open. This will help the block lie flat in spite of the somewhat bulky seams. Repeat for a total of 25 complete blocks. Trim as necessary to 12.25".
13. You will now have another 12 half square triangles remaining. We will use these half square triangles for setting triangles along the sides of the finished quilt.
14. Time to lay out your quilt top, at last! Gather all of your finished blocks as well as your 4 quarter square triangles and 12 half square triangles. Below you'll find a diagram to illustrate the layout for this quilt top. The red letters in the corners indicate the placement of the quarter square triangles, with the numbers illustrating the placement of the 12 half square triangles.
Feel free to move blocks and triangles around until you're happy with the layout.
15. Once you're happy with your layout, it's time to put these rows together. Going back to the diagram above, it also illustrates the way to assemble the quilt top, in diagonal rows. First stitch the blocks in each row together, pressing seams open as you go. Once you've completed your rows, stitch the rows together in pairs, Row 1 to Row 2, Row 3 to Row 4, and Row 5 to Row 6. Then, stitch Rows 1/2 to Rows 3/4 and Rows 5/6 to Row 7. Finally, stitch these two large sets of rows together to complete the primary patchwork part of your quilt top.
16. Next, you can add borders to create a more rectangular quilt and to set off these fun blocks. This border is entirely optional. To create your borders, cut four 8" x WOF strips and four 2.5" x WOF strips. Seam the 8" strips together in pairs, creating two 8" strips, and repeat for the 2.5" strips as well. Stitch the 2.5" strips to the two long sides of the quilt, press seams open, then add the 8" strips at the top and bottom of the quilt and press seams open again.
17. Ta da! A finished quilt top! Baste, quilt and bind as desired, and enjoy!!
One gorgeous 74" x 84" quilt

All Saint Clair Shores homeowners must get new water meters. The city is pushing for a newer, more modern model - one that transmits the reading to city hall via a radio frequency. This would eliminate the need for meter readers to visit the homes.
But homeowner Mike Cook isn't okay with the new system.
"I just don't feel that I want something that sends a radio signal in my house," he tells Fox 2's Amy Lange.
So, the city gave Cook the option to still get a new meter - it just doesn't have the wireless hookup. Assistant City Manager, Mike Smith, tells us he understands not everyone will want the new wireless system, but it will save the city $125,000 a year. So for those who don't want to switch, an arrangement can be made.
The city says those homeowners can opt out of the wireless system, but it will cost $40 a year ($10 a quarter) to have someone still come to the house and check the reading.
Cook tells us he's fine with that.
But, when he went to sign the contract, he saw something he was not okay with - a clause that says the city can raise that $40 rate at any time.
So, Cook refused to sign the contract.
Then the city sent him a notice, saying he would be ticketed for not making an appointment to get the new water meter - a ticket costing $800.
But Cook did, in fact, make an appointment. It was at that appointment he refused to sign the contract.
VIDEO: Amy Lange speaks to homeowner, assistant city manager
Smith says the ticket has not crossed in the mail, and Cook has not yet been given the penalty.
