The common cold usually causes a runny nose, nasal congestion, and sneezing. You may also have a sore throat, cough, headache, or other symptoms.
Upper respiratory infection - viral; Cold
It is called the "common cold" for good reason. There are over one billion colds in the United States each year. You and your children will probably have more colds than any other type of illness.
Colds are the most common reason that children miss school and parents miss work. Parents often get colds from their children.
Children can get many colds every year. They usually get them from other children. A cold can spread quickly through schools or daycares.
Colds can occur at any time of the year, but they are most common in the winter or rainy seasons.
A cold virus spreads through tiny, air droplets that are released when the sick person sneezes, coughs, or blows their nose.
You can catch a cold if:
People are most contagious for the first 2 to 3 days of a cold. A cold is usually not contagious after the first week.
Cold symptoms usually start about 2 or 3 days after you came in contact with the virus, although it could take up to a week. Symptoms mostly affect the nose.
The most common cold symptoms are:
Adults and older children with colds generally have a low fever or no fever. Young children often run a fever around 100-102°F.
Depending on which virus caused your cold, you may also have:
Most colds go away in a few days. Some things you can do to take care of yourself with a cold include:
The fluid from your runny nose will become thicker and may turn yellow or green within a few days. This is normal, and not a reason for antibiotics.
Most cold symptoms usually go away within a week. If you still feel sick after 7 days, see your health care provider to rule out a sinus infection, allergies, or other medical problem.
Colds are the most common trigger of wheezing in children with asthma.
A cold may also lead to:
Try treating your cold at home first. Call your health care provider if:
To lower your chances of getting sick:

More Fun, Less Fighting
If you keep having the same arguments with your kid, try these smart and surprising ideas to restore the peace
By Charlotte Latvala
Special Offers
I walked in the door the other day and promptly tripped over my son's backpack, sending a bag of groceries, car keys, and mail flying across the front hall.
"AJ!" I shouted up the stairs. "You need to move your stuff. Now!"
He emerged from his room and appeared at the top of the staircase, looking baffled. "What stuff?" he asked.
"This!" I shouted, pointing to his backpack, shoes, and laptop computer, all dumped in a pile. "I tell you the same thing every day!"
Indeed, I do. I also say, "Hang up your wet towel," "Put away your clothes," and "Don't put empty containers back into the pantry." It's completely predictable, as are AJ's responses: "Why hang up a towel that's going in the wash anyway?"; "It's my room I don't care if it's messy!"; and "I didn't do it!"
It's Groundhog Day, with teenagers. Kids this age are wired to argue, says Michael Bradley, Ed.D., author of When Things Get Crazy With Your Teen. "It's actually a healthy phase of development," he explains. "If a kid says, 'Why should I put it away? I'm just going to pick it up again on the way out,' he's thinking for himself in a new way. They disagree, question authority, and push boundaries it's a normal part of growing up."
That's not to say, however, that the bickering doesn't drive you bonkers or that you have to tolerate it.
Since the usual responses (yelling, nagging, and making empty threats) often exacerbate the problem, swap them for these clever and surprising tactics that will restore the peace in your home.
Your Impulse: Bring up every little misdeed
A Smarter Strategy: Decide what's worth fighting for
Honestly, now: Is an unmade bed a federal crime? Which is to say, it's better to choose which issues are big enough to battle over, advises Michele Borba, Ed.D., author of The Big Book of Parenting Solutions, and to bite your tongue about the small stuff. You'll be rewarded with much less bickering. One tactic: Jot down everything you nag your kid about during a typical day and then pick three things to focus on, suggests Borba more than that will feel overwhelming to her, and she'll tune you out. "Usually the top three are the recurring arguments that create a rift between you--whether it's a perpetually messy room, too much texting, or breaking curfew," Borba says. Tell your teen that you are going to focus on those three things, then look for quick, easy solutions, Borba suggests. "Ask your kid: 'What will help you?' It could be ridiculously simple say, placing a basketball hoop over the hamper so he tosses his dirty clothes in."
Your Impulse: Lay out the consequences
A Smarter Strategy: Have a few surprises up your sleeve
In general, yes, you want kids to know there will be consequences for misdeeds that's Parenting 101. But adding an element of surprise can be amazingly effective when dealing with endless arguments. "Instead of pleading for tidiness while putting away your child's backpack for the umpteenth time, stash his book bag in your own closet," says Leah Klungness, Ph.D., author of The Complete Single Mother. When your kid gets around to looking for it and asks, "Where's my book bag?" calmly respond, "Well, where did you leave it?" and wait it out.
Admittedly, adds Klungness, this can get tricky for parents. "Our usual role is to soothe and fix, and here you're going to allow your child to feel a bit of panic and confusion." Let some time elapse--about 15 minutes or so before returning the bag. Now that you've got your kid's attention, explain that the next time the book bag isn't put away, there will be worse consequences. (Don't specify what it's better to leave him wondering what you have up your sleeve.) Then, when there's another infraction, quietly follow through with some action, whether it's taking away video games for a week or cutting his allowance.

Campania International Large Scroll Handle Cast Stone Planter
About Campania InternationalEstablished in 1984, Campania International's reputation has been built on quality original products and service. Originally selling terra cotta planters, Campania soon began to research and develop the design and manufacture of cast stone garden planters and ornaments. Campania is also an importer and wholesaler of garden products, including polyethylene, terra cotta, glazed pottery, cast iron, and fiberglass planters as well as classic garden structures, fountains, and cast resin statuary.Campania Cast Stone: The ProcessThe creation of Campania's cast stone pieces begins and ends by hand. From the creation of an original design, making of a mold, pouring the cast stone, application of the patina to the final packing of an order, the process is both technical and artistic. As many as 30 pairs of hands are involved in the creation of each Campania piece in a labor intensive 15 step process.The process begins either with the creation of an original copyrighted design by Campania's artisans or an antique original. Antique originals will often require some restoration work, which is also done in-house by expert craftsmen. Campania's mold making department will then begin a multi-step process to create a production mold which will properly replicate the detail and texture of the original piece. Depending on its size and complexity, a mold can take as long as three months to complete. Campania creates in excess of 700 molds per year.After a mold is completed, it is moved to the production area where a team individually hand pours the liquid cast stone mixture into the mold and employs special techniques to remove air bubbles. Campania carefully monitors the PSI of every piece. PSI (pounds per square inch) measures the strength of every piece to ensure durability. The PSI of Campania pieces is currently engineered at approximately 7500 for optimum strength. Each piece is air-dried and then de-molded by hand. After an internal quality check, pieces are sent to a finishing department where seams are ground and any air holes caused by the pouring process are filled and smoothed. Pieces are then placed on a pallet for stocking in the warehouse.All Campania pieces are produced and stocked in natural cast stone. When a customer's order is placed, pieces are pulled and unless a piece is requested in natural cast stone, it is finished in a unique patinas. All patinas are applied by hand in a multi-step process; some patinas require three separate color applications. A finisher's skill in applying the patina and wiping away any excess to highlight detail requires not only technical skill, but also true artistic sensibility. Every Campania piece becomes a unique and original work of garden art as a result.After the patina is dry, the piece is then quality inspected. All pieces of a customer's order are batched and checked for completeness. A two-person packing team will then pack the order by hand into gaylord boxes on pallets. The packing material used is excelsior, a natural wood product that has no chemical additives and may be recycled as display material, repacking customer orders, mulch,or even bedding for animals. This exhaustive process ensures that Campania will remain a popular and beloved choice when it comes to garden decor.Please note this product does not ship to Pennsylvania.

Aww, mama - I know just how you feel... I was so depressed at having to go back to work and be away from my daughter that I was in counseling and my psychologist wouldn't let me go back before 12 weeks because I was such a wreck... It took a while for me to relax and be able to concentrate at work. Even now there are times when all I want to do is be home with my baby...my 18 month old baby...
I know I can't make it easier for you, but one thing that helped me was reminding myself that I have to provide for her future. On one income, I wouldn't be putting any money away for her education or my retirement and I could windup burdening her with student loans or taking care of me in the future. I just couldn't really live with that idea...
Hang in there, mama! You'll do what's best for your baby girl!

Thank you all again for the support and commiseration. I'm just trying to make the best of the last few days I have home with her and will be sure to cherish each moment I do have home with her in the morning, evening and night. Wish we could work out some of the variables to allow me to stay home, but we can't so it will be fine. Again, thanks, it is good to know others have been through this.
oh mama I'm so sorry! I totally understand how you feel though...DH & I both work and my DD went to daycare at 9 weeks old. We were all crying the first morning that DH left to take her to d/c
I just found this thread and I know it's been a couple weeks, but I'm just wondering how things are going for you? I'm sure it's still tough, but it does get easier, especially knowing how excited your LO is when you get home! Hang in there

Here's an update.
Last week I was back 3 days. This week I'm in M, W, F. She still isn't taking the bottle. She is brought to me @noon to eat and I pump once in the morn and one in the afternoon. Right now we are attempting to give her the freshest milk in bottles, but she has only gotten a sip or two. It was so painful to go back that first week, but I think it will get better. There were times at work where I was busy enough to have the anxiety drop down to the background rather than being all consuming. While I'm away she mostly sleeps though she does cry to eat then in anger at the bottle a couple of times in morn and again in the afternoon. It will make me feel a lot better once she takes one of the dozen or so bottles we've tried. We're going to keep trying.
One of the things I couldn't see due to the anxiety was that I will get to see her each day. I'm not with her all day, but when I was anticipating going back and being really worried about it I think I couldn't comprehend the fact that I would see her each day. It sounds silly because obviously I knew that I would come home at the end of the day, but one minute away felt like forever. It's like I didn't have object permanence, I felt like if I let her out of my sight she might disappear. When she hits that stage of separation anxiety I will really be able to sympathize.
Thanks again for all your support. And please send us some good wishes for her taking a bottle.
Mama, I'm glad you are doing well and adjusting. And I hope she gives in and takes the bottle! I'm sure you've tried different kinds. My DD prefers Tommee Tippee. Keep us posted!
Mom to Aimee, born 8/22/11

It will get easier...certain things like housework & cooking become less important so that you can get in all the cuddles you need while you're at home She will adjust, and so will you, just might take some time.
FWIW, we like the Playtex VentAir Wide bottles (wider to be more like a breast I think) w/slow flow nipples. It was the first one we tried & she took it fine, so that's all we ever used. I hope you find what works for you soon!

It took my niece over a week to start taking a bottle, and her mom was working full time and couldn't come and nurse. But she finally did--and then took them fine. (She is 14 now and every time my SIL tells the story the amount of weight my niece lost goes up )
To be honest we used the cheap Walmart bottles; but he started at 6 weeks when they are more likely to take bottles quickly.
It is a relief when you see that you can get back together with them.

I too went back to work when my previous son was 10 weeks old. It was the hardest thing ever, even knowing that he was well taken care of by my stepmother. It does get better as the days go by and you will have plenty of time to enjoy and bond with the baby. I nursed at every opportunity and co-sleep. Hated pumping, but knew it was to provide my son with the best nutrition. This time around, once again, had to come back to work when he was 10 weeks old, and as the main bread winner in my house, I had no other choice. It is easier with this baby, because I know that it can be done.
As far as the bottle feeding... I never tried to bottle feed them prior to going back to work. The first time they both drank from a bottle was the day I went back to work. My previous son did very well on the playtex drop ins. With my current son, I decided to use the Ameda bottles (I have the pump) and Dr. Brown's nipple (preemie) size...which was recommended by a mommy from my local support group; the flow is slower to prevent overfeeding. I never had any problems, nor nipple confusion (which is usually in the first 2 weeks of birth). This time around I was given the option of working part-time for 2 weeks and then full-time. it REALLY helped and made a HUGE difference for me. Will your DH be able to take baby to your work? it may help and avoid having to pump. Also with the new technology, I have videos of my son on my phone and I've recorded him while nursing so that I can listen to his breathing and sucking as I am pumping...Iphone??? do FACETIME to see baby while pumping!

Tuesday, October 15 , 2013
The US Food and Drug Administration has released the proposed rule on preventive controls that applies to many domestic and foreign firms that manufacture, process, pack or hold human food. The rule proposes firms have written plans in place to identify potential hazards, put in place steps to address them, verify that the steps are working, and outline how to correct any problems that arise. FDA would evaluate the plans and continue to inspect facilities to make sure the plans are being implemented properly.
The rule proposes each covered facility to prepare and implement a written food safety plan, which would include the following:
•Hazard analysis •Risk-based preventive control•Monitoring procedures•Corrective actions, verification and record keeping
FDA proposes that the requirements be effective one year after a final rule is published in the Federal Register. The agency proposes to allow two years for small businesses and three years for very small businesses to comply with the rule.
Comments on the proposed rule are due 120 days after the rule is published in the Federal Register. FDA will hold public meetings to explain the proposal and to provide additional opportunity for input. A similar proposed rule that would apply to animal feed and petfood is expected soon.

From my experience, the kids don't wear their birthday hats for very long, but it can be a nice warm up for party guests as they arrive to color in and decorate their hats. An adult or older
sibling can then make the hats into cones and hand them back as the kids sit down to eat cake.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com BC rallies past UNH men in OT
Monday, December 17, 2012
BOSTON (AP) — Boston College needed a little extra work, but finally made a few 3-point shots just in time.
The Eagles trailed by 13 midway through the second half and also trailed in overtime before the pair of 3s propelled them to the win.
Hanlan had 10 points and Jackson scored eight.
"To be down 13 in the second half of a low-scoring game, I think showed a lot of character," Donahue said. "We weren't making a lot and then `bam.' I think there's a great lesson that we can learn here."
The Eagles, who had a handful of 3s roll out during their long-range shooting drought, followed with a 12-0 run to slice it to 47-46 on Rahon's free throws with 6:11 left.
BC was 0 for 9 on 3s in the opening half.

Jeff Kriet's season was on the line heading into day 2 of last week's Cayuga Lake Bassmaster Elite Series. He'd caught a pedestrian 12-pound bag on day 1 and sat in 73rd place in the standings.
He came into the tournament at No. 43 in the Angler of the Year race and was poised to slide out of the Top 50 – and thus fail to qualify for the AOY Championship, which would cost him an opportunity to compete for a 2015 Classic berth. He needed to bounce back with a much stronger sack.
He did just that, bringing a 16-11 stringer to the scale. It moved him up 29 places in the standings and he gained two more the following day to finish 42nd. That moved him up to 41st on the final points list and secured his spot in the AOY Championship next month at Michigan's Bays de Noc.
"My biggest problem the first day was I had two or three different deals going on," he said. "I thought I could catch them cranking, I thought I could catch them casting around some deep grass and I thought I could catch them flipping the deep grass with a big weight. I think I tried to do too much.
"I knew on the second day that if I didn't pull it together, it was going to cost me my chance at the Classic. I just picked up the big rod and flipped grass all day."
He flipped a Big Bite Baits Yo Mama under a punch skirt and 1-ounce weight, all attached to 65-pound braided line.
"I felt like I could've done it the third day, too. I had two 4-pounders, but it was real cloudy and windy and I couldn't see the grass heads and I basically had to blind-flip.
"The fish were in clusters. You could go a long time with no bites and then you'd get around them and you might flip up six or seven."
The Sunline Strong Performer, which focuses on the angler who makes the most significant single-day move in the standings at each tour-level event, is brought to you by the great people at Sunline.

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Dr. Edward S. Cohen, Westminster College associate professor of political science, presented research at a workshop in September at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada.
"Contractual Governance of Global Value Chains" centered on the role of the international commercial arbitration in shaping how contracts work in global commerce.
The workshop was organized by Dr. A. Claire Cutler of the University of Victoria, Canada. Cohen and Cutler are also working together on a book project: Law, Power and Contestation in the Global Political Economy.
Cohen's research interests are in the area of globalization. He is interested both in the role of politics and private international law in shaping the process of globalization, and in the impact of globalization on American political life.
To assist in his research, Cohen also attended the annual meeting of the Advisory Committee on Private International Law (ACPIL) to the U.S. Department of State, Office of the Legal Adviser in Washington, D.C. in October. Cohen was able to network with some of his established contacts in the field. Observing and analyzing the deliberations also helped him progress in writing his current book manuscript.
The trip to the ACPIL meeting was sponsored by the Development Professional Fund and Westminster's Faculty Development Program. Faculty development at Westminster College is an ongoing process to keep the faculty at their best in their teaching and scholarship, and the necessary intersection of those two activities. In addition to supporting the faculty through grants, the department coordinates seminars and training sessions. The program also provides consultation on faculty development issues, such as faculty review portfolio construction, and other teaching issues.
In addition to teaching political science, Cohen serves as the chair of the department and teaches courses in public policy, constitutional law and political theory. He earned his undergraduate degree from Brooklyn College and his master's and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He became a faculty member at Westminster in 1996.
Contact Cohen at (724) 946-7304 or email for additional information.

The goals of the Center for Diabetes Research are to identify the causes and to develop new approaches for prevention and treatment of diabetes and diabetes-associated complications. Diabetes in our society is growing at an alarming rate, especially in the southeast.
Diabetes affects many tissues and functions including the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves and brain. Establishment of the Center for Diabetes Research in 2006 reflected that diabetes is a major and growing area of research in the Wake Forest School of Medicine.
Within the Wake Forest community, the Center acts to increase awareness of diabetes and facilitate continued growth in diabetes-related research through the development of programs that integrate basic and clinical research. Diabetes research studies at the medical center cover the spectrum of modern research.
These studies range from laboratory studies investigating basic cellular mechanisms leading to diabetes through participation in major clinical trials of prevention and treatment programs.
The Medical School has special strengths in several areas of diabetes research. Of note are studies of the genetic contributors to diabetes and diabetes complications such as cardiovascular disease and nephropathy. Genetic research in minority populations is a special area of emphasis of the Center. In addition, Wake Forest is a major participant in NIH-sponsored clinical trials targeting diabetes prevention and prevention of cardiovascular disease and other complications in people with diabetes.
Researchers in the Abdominal Organ Transplant Program are leaders in developing new approaches to effectively transplant and sustain organs in diabetes patients.
The current goal of the Center is to continue expansion of basic sciences to complement the visible strengths in genetics and epidemiology, thus developing a nationally recognized, balanced, multidisciplinary program for diabetes research.

At the meetings held October 27th and 30th, the Undergraduate Association de- cided to petition the faculty in regard to the rule regulating attendance at lectures. The petition asks for the repeal of the cut rule and for a period of probation (the-year 1914-15). "during which the un- dergraduates may have the opportunity to convince the faculty of the College that with the present understanding of the faculty attitude, cutting can be regulated as satisfactorily by the undergraduates themselves as by a rule regarding attend- ance at lectures." The petition states that the students feel that the undue amount of cutting has been due to a mis- understanding on the part of the under- graduates as to the faculty point of view; that the statistics on which the rule is based do not fairly represent the amount of cutting since many cuts were taken as unexcused in the past which might have been excused; that under the pres- ent system the lowering grades seriously affects scholarship; that the difficulty in obtaining excuses will force students to attend lectures when they should not; that a student can no longer put consecu- tlve hours on one piece of work; that stu- dents cannot be away from College for important legitimate engagements, and, finally, that "the students' feeling of self- reliance in regard to their academic work will be weakened." OFFICIAL N0TICE8 Reserved Desks.�It seems best to make some changes in the privilege of reserving desks in the Reading Room of the Library as we find that some of the students have abused the privilege by asking for reserved desks and keeping them most of the semester by renewals� in that way depriving others of their use. There are more students in College than there are desks, and. in order to give everyone a fair chance, we have decided lo grant a reserved desk only when a student is working on a definite report which requires a number of books, and to limit the time to a period of two weeks with one renewal, when absolutely neces- sary. No reserved desks can be granted during the se^nester examination periods. I.. A. Rkkd. i ;> mnasiiiin classes begin this week. C. M. K. Appli.hi i THE NEW BOOK ROOM The Loeb Classical Library I hope that the students who Eraquenl the New Book Room this winter will turn now and then from the harrowing litera- ture of the war. from the volumes on "Railroads and the Philippines" and the engaging records of the "Lives of In- sects," and teak an hour's solace in the modest red and green volumes of the Loeb Classical Library. We owe them to the enterprise of Mr. James Loeb. who in founding the library and getting the translations done by American and En- glish scholars, aimed at providing the general reader with a standard version of all the Creek and I>atin authors. The original is printed on the opposite pay for the ln-iii'in of those �li" know or have known some Latin and Creek and lik�vto see the original there, even though thej may not often consult it. In time there will be hundreds of these volumes, but no I more will be issued during the war. The | Latin authors are bound in red, trie Creek in green, and I should advise the reader who has not read the classics systemat- ically to begin with the Creek volumes, "Theocritus." for example, or the "Argo nautlca of Apollonius of Rhodes." that strange epic which tells the tale of Jason and Medea. The reader who should do this would perhaps have visions that might make her less forlorn. She. would see how the atrocities of war can be transmuted into literature, and would be able to estimate the war poetry dated 1914 by comparing it with that inspired by a very trivial affair conducted without a single howitzer, the Siege of Troy. For whatever may spring from this war one tiling certainly will not: there will be no Homer to make it immortal in verse; no Thucydides to engrave its horrors in un- dying prose. There must be many a gen- eral now as brave as Agamemnon (who wasn't after all especially brave), but he will not enjoy Agamemnon's tremendous luck in having an .Kschylus to write the tragedy of his home-coming. I respectfully urge any student wtio embarks on a determined course of read Ing in these translations to keep. two things in mind. The first Is that a taste for the classics of any language Is an ac- quired taste. Not to acquire it Is to miss the only pleasure that will never grow stale. The second thing to remember is to look out in these tales of "old unhappy far-off things and battles long ago" for the counterpart of the events and trage- dies of the present day. The fact that i ;isar first labeled the Belgians "the bravest of them all" makes that page of falser at any rate interesting for us. But analogies, if not- forecasts, will leap out of every page of the classics, and the better the author the more striking they will be. There will be more of them in Homer than in Apollonius and in .Kschy- lus than in Seneca. It is their presence that does most to ensure the life of a classic. \\ ii.mi.k Cave Wkimit. 1916 NOTICE Competition for a member of "The < al- lege Haws" Editorial Beard from the class of linn is now open The success ful candidate "ill be announced in De- cember.

Full-Text | Oral History Interview with Mary Lou Egan October 19, 2013 Interviewer: Cyns Nelson Interview Transcribed by Cyns Nelson [Interview takes place at the Valdez-Perry Branch Library in Denver, Colorado.] 00:00 CN: Today is October 19, 2013. My name is Cyns Nelson, and I'm conducting oral histories with residents from the Globeville, Elyria, and Swansea neighborhoods. This interview is part of the Denver Public Library's "Creating Your Community" project, and the oral history will be archived with the Western History Department. Right now, I am talking with Mary Lou Egan, whose grandparents lived in Globeville. So she spent quite a bit of time here when she was a child, and now is working on a book that is the history of Globeville. So start by stating your full name; and tell me when and where you were born, and share something about your upbringing. ME: My name is Mary Lou Egan, I was born in 1948 in St. Joseph's hospital in Denver. I come from a family of five children, and we lived—I grew up in the Washington Park area, because that's where my dad, the Irish Tom Egan, was from. My grandparents lived in Globeville, and we spent a LOT of time down there before the highway was built. So we'd go down there on weekends; Saturday and Sunday went to church at Holy Rosary; it was just really great. During the summer, we would spend the night at my grandparents' house. It was SO much fun. Globeville was such another world. At that time it was totally intact. Before the highways split it up in the late '40s and in the '60s, Globeville was like a model-train layout. It was between the hill—Argo, on the hill—and the Platte River on the east side, and between the railroads on 38th Avenue, and up to—52nd is Adams County line. If you built a model-train layout, this is what you would do: You would have little houses next to each others, and they would have out-buildings, and sheds, and chicken coops, and summer kitchens; a mother-in-law apartment, the barns. And neat-as-a-pin yards—gardens, trees, bushes, flowers. There were seven or eight churches in Globeville. There were little groceries—there were a lot of barber shops. Shoe-repair stores, notions shops. And you could walk everywhere. It was safe to walk from 4552 Sherman to Argo Park. CN: And 4552 Sherman is where your grandparents— ME: My grandparents lived. So, to Holy Rosary—everywhere, we walked everywhere. And my grandpa was still working. He was born in Slovenia, and he worked as a butcher in Yelenick's store when we were growing up. That was at 45th and Lincoln. I think it was called the Globeville Cash Market [?]. So we'd go over and visit him and buy penny candy. He was famous for his sausage. He could make everybody's sausage: The German sausage, the Swedish sausage, Slovenian kielbasa, blood sausage. So that was really neat. My grandma was born in Pueblo but her mother was from Sweden. Never learned English. So my grandmother could speak Swedish—which she did on the party line, so no one knew what she was saying. So we didn't know what she was saying. But she could read and write Swedish. And there were a fair number of Swedes in Globeville. So that was—we really enjoyed going down to Globeville. It was always another world, like stepping into another world. And everybody had a story. Bus [?] and Molly Baker who lived next door, they were White Russians. The lady across the street, Mrs. Strasheim, was supposed to be related to Catherine the Great. And people talked about the old country—they were born in another century, in another country. They all had these great stories. And you'd hear people speaking Slovenian, or Croatian, or Russian, or this peculiar brand of German, in Globeville. It just was another world. 04:42 CN: How did people get together? What were the kinds of community activities? ME: What was big in Globeville—probably to a certain extent in America, before television—was your church and your lodge, your family, your work. Churches were very important. This was a reflection of your national pride. It's the Polish Roman Catholic Church; it's Transfiguration Orthodox Church. The Slovenian Croatian Holy Rosary. Three German churches. So, the church was huge. But organizations: PTA used to put out these little—like a program, when you had a meeting. And they had entertainment and they had speakers. People attended group activities. And they respected each others. They went to each others' church bazaars; they had concerts and plays at the lodges. People attended things at the Slovenian Hall, where McDonalds is now. The Germans weren't supposed to be drinking so much, to the German churches, but they went to the Slovenian Hall. So, people were—it was very big. CN: What is a Slovenian Hall? ME: Oh my—the Slovenian Hall. The Slovenian Hall was built—it was actually started—most of these fraternals started in saloons. Fraternals were mutual help organizations. There was always the Polish Hall; Saint Jacob's Croatian Hall. The Russians used the old saw mill, the Church Hall, for their meetings. But in an age before Social Security, Workmans' Compensation, insurance, disability—if you're working in a smelter or a foundry and you were hurt, your family was destitute. So, immigrants formed these fraternals. They were like associations in the old country: You paid your dues, and you were a member. And then if something happened to you, they took care of your burial. You had a stone; your family was taken care of. The other big purpose of fraternals was to preserve the ethnic heritage of the groups that originated them. So they—you could go to the Slovenian Hall and get a Slovenian home-cooked meal, meet a Slovenian girl, talk to people from the old country—get news from the old country, read a newspaper. All of these organizations had a tavern, and the tavern owner was the focus of all this information. He would transfer money to the old country for you. He would keep in touch with people. He could probably speak English; he'd translate for you. So these are very important organizations that were founded first—I think the oldest is the Polish National Alliance, 1889. And then the Poles raised money to build St. Joseph's church. The Transfiguration Church was built by the Orthodox Fraternal Societies. Part of their mission was to preserve their heritage, which was religion. These guys had been persecuted in the old country. They couldn't wait to start their own church; to have their own associations; to celebrate the culture that had been suppressed in the old country. So these were very, very important. And my grandpa was a member of the Western Slavonic, St. Martins Number One. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus and the Knights of St. John. These organizations were where you went to network, where you made business deals. CN: Talk about the kinds of activities outside of church organizations. What community centers, theaters. What building structures were in the neighborhood, that you recollect? ME: Well, from my background—the lodges, again, had concerts, put on plays. So that's where you went. And dances, and baseball. 09:55 Baseball was this assimilation thing. It was American. So the lodges had teams, the brickyards had teams, the smelters had teams, the packing houses had teams. Grocery stores sponsored teams; Gerhardt Mercantile had a team. So there was a lot of baseball that went on. CN: How did the different cultures relate to one another? ME: They respected each other. And that's the signature of Globeville. Neighborliness and respect. They had been enemies in the old country—the Prussians and the Russians and the Austrians. They would have been across a battle line in the old country. And when they came here, their—Globeville was incorporated in 1891. And in that first town council are Germans from Russia; Maximillan Malec [sp?] and Emil Forman [sp?], Croatians. And some native born, some American born—William Hanford Clark is the first mayor of Globeville. He was a prospector who came out here, American born. They got along. They made a point of getting along. So, when the First World War breaks out, there's not skirmishes in taverns. They left that behind. Now, they respected each other; they attended each other's events. But at that time—and probably in America in general—you didn't go to somebody else's church. And when my oldest uncle, Andy Jackson, married a German girl from down the street, oh, both families were up in arms. And they got married by a justice of the peace, so as to not choose one side. That was 1930. You were supposed to marry within your language, within your culture, within your religion. And when the first grandchild came along, that all dissipated. By the time my mom got married, in 1946, to an Irish guy from across town—they were glad he was Catholic. So that had been dissipating, that rigorous "stay within your own group." But the sort of distinction in the Globeville ethnic groups is that they stayed in their ethnic enclaves pretty much until after the Second World War. Unlike the earlier groups—the Germans, the Irish, the Scots—who came here and could speak English to some extent—a lot of the Germans could speak English—and assimilated. And by the time these groups come in the 1880s—and they're recruited, because they'll work for less. So they bring in this huge labor force from Eastern Europe and Russia. Then there are newspaper articles that say, "Oh, these are not like the earlier immigrants." These are lesser; these are less desirable people. They might be anarchists; they've got these huge families; they dress funny. And they're not learning English, they're not assimilating. I don't know how you'd learn English if you work 12 hours a day, six days a week. And you lived in your Slovenian neighborhood and you went to your Slovenian Church and your Slovenian lodge; you probably weren't learning English real quick. So they were unwelcome. And after the silver panic of 1893, they're competing with native-born and early arrivals for a diminished number of jobs. So they're really not welcome. So they stay in Globeville. And they—everything you need is there: your job, your church, your lodge. They don't assimilate. Now, they get along with each other. But until the Second World War—I talked to old-timers that had never been farther than Pueblo, for a lodge convention, or to Fort Collins for a church convention. Your life was pretty much your neighborhood and your church and lodge and your family and your work. CN: So, obviously you've done quite a bit of research on the history. Tell me how it is that you did get interested in going this deep in the history of the neighborhood. ME: Well, we went down to Globeville a lot. My grandpa passed away in 1961, and in 1961 his house is now not in the middle of the block, it's the end of the block. The highway's already started carving up Globeville. My grandma passed away in 1967, after the flood of '65. So we sold the house and didn't go down there very much. There was no reason to. We'd go to a wedding, maybe, that was held the Slovenian Hall, or something. But I didn't go down there that much. 15:10 It was only, like, in the 1980s you started hearing Globeville in the news, very negative. There was a train derailment with hydrochloric acid, on an Easter Sunday. And then all the lawsuits that began in the 1980s. And the first successful lawsuits culminate into 1993. But it was all this news about, oh, toxicity and the neighborhood. And the city of Denver had decided, in the 1960s, to let Globeville evolve into an industrial area and stop supporting city services. You're paying taxes, you're not getting your trash picked up. The zoning enforcement was very sketchy; the city itself has impound lots down there, an asphalt plant. At any rate, it all seemed to be so negative. And I thought, well, there's more to Globeville than that. By golly, I'll write a book. I'll research the history of Globeville. And I had I known then what I know now—it's sort of like saying, "Well, I'll take out my own appendix," (laughing) "How hard can this be? I'll get a book out and do this." (Laughing.) I'm not a historian and I'm not a writer. So, I did enjoy the research. I spent a lot of time at the library—God bless the Denver Public Library! Hear, hear. They were so helpful. It's very scattered information. And then I began interviewing people. Like a lot of things, Globeville's history is related to the discovery of gold in Colorado. Because, before 1858 there are trappers and traders and Native Americans; and they're along that area in the Platte. And then when gold is discovered, all these people come out here, including a 23-year-old prospector, William Hanford Clark. And he stakes his claim and his homestead at 47th—what's now 47th—and, like, Pearl. He's a homesteader and a prospector; he's 23. He'll be the first mayor of Globeville. He hangs around. But the story of gold is that: The early gold is nuggets and flakes. It's free gold. Most of the gold isn't free; it's bound up in sulfides and bromides. How can you separate the metal from the ore? And this is a big conflict, a big challenge. And the man who discovers how to do that is Nathaniel Hill. He sets up the first profitable, successful smelter—the Boston & Colorado, in Black Hawk. It outgrows its space, and when the railroads arrive in the 1870s, he relocates to an area called Christian Ridge, and sets up the Boston & Colorado Smelter there. A company town: 1,600 company houses; the railroad stops there; there's company stores; and they name the company town "Argo." So there's Argo Park in Globeville, that once had animal cages, bowling alleys, a dance hall. It was a function of that company town. That smelter is so successful—he has a stained glass window in the state Capitol. This was like, you know, Bill Gates or something. It's really—solving this problem in 1882, the Omaha & Grant Smelter is built by the Governor, James Grant. It's where the coliseum is located today. Huge, huge smelter. The biggest smelter. The third smelter is started by a man named Holden. He's a better, um "BS-er" than he is a business man, so it's taken over by the Colorado National Bank. Then _____ [?], in 1889, who reorganizes it, renames it the Globe Smelter. Then _____ [name sounds like "A-she-dee"] is an immigrant. The Guggenheims will eventually be a force in the smelter trust; they're immigrants. 19:56 And, this, these three huge, successful smelters spawn more businesses: foundries, railroads, the brickyards. Then the meat-packing plants move in. There's a huge need for cheap labor. So that's when they begin recruiting Eastern Europeans and Russians. Germans from Russian, Carpatho-Russians. And they're eager to come, because eastern Europe and Russia is in absolute turmoil then. There are these three big empires—Austria, Germany, Russia—that are grabbing up little countries. They have divided Poland. There is no Poland. It's parts of Austria, Germany. There's a lot of tension, a lot of ethnic persecution. Uprisings, and reprisals. So, at this time, sea travel is more convenient—it only takes a couple weeks instead of a month. There are methods of wiring money to people. So, folks start coming from eastern Europe and Russia, and they go to industrial centers of Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Omaha. And then to Globeville. There's no Globeville, until 1891. There's this little collection of developments—developers are platting and selling lots to these folks. And there's Tacoma Heights, and the Greenwood Addition. Garden Place. They sound very bucolic. But people moved to this area to be close to their jobs, to be close to the smelter. The Globe Smelter also sets up company housing—Sheedy Row—along Washington. I do have a picture of Sheedy Row; they were nice little houses. So that's when these groups arrive here. And they, they're eager to come here. They start sending money back—it's called chain migration. So, you send—there are three groups of Germans from Russia: Norka, Beidecka, Denhoff [spelling?]. So you send back to the old country for your relatives. They come and they create a little shack. There are, like, 20 people living in this little shack. They're painfully frugal; save their money; send more money back; bring more people from Norka. They build their church. So, they're very eager to set up these foundations—the churches and the lodges—to celebrate and preserve their culture. And the immigrant story—the same, then, as there is today—how do you make it, in Amercia? How do you preserve your culture. You've got one foot in both camps. People start to assimilate when their kids learn English, when their kids are staying in school and bringing the English home. They're translating for their parents. The other big thing that happens is World War One, that breaks contact, really, from 1914 on, with families in the old country. So, you begin to make your life here. You're not going back. You're not going to go back. You're not going to be sending for people. And then there's immigration reform—very strict immigration reform—in 1924. So immigration pretty much stops. And these groups in Globeville stay intact in their little ethnic environments, really, until World War Two. So that's sort of a distinction of Globeville—they get along, they respect each other, but they kind of stay in their own little enclaves. The Germans from Russia are located around their churches and on the hill; and the Polish are around St. Joseph's Polish Church and in an area of Retreat Park—Emerson, Clarkson. And the Carpatho-Russians are around their church. And the Slovenians and Croatians are around St. Jacob's, and Western Slavonic, and Holy Rosary Church. So they sort of stay in their neighborhoods, and they work together—in the meat-packing plants and stuff. And they kind of know each other, but you still kind of marry within your own group, and stay in your own group. 24:53 Then in the Second World War, guys that had never been Pueblo will be in Basic Training in Norfolk, Virginia. And then in the Atlantic theater, the European theater, and the Pacific theater, they will have seen the world and come back. And they don't want to marry the girl down the block. And they don't want to be confined to the mother-in-law apartment after you get married. The other thing that happens that breaks up neighborhoods—not just in Globeville, but in the nation—was VA loans. That you can get a 30-year mortgage—three percent, 30-year mortgage—on a new home, but not to fix up an old one. So in Detroit, and Milwaukee, and Chicago, and Pittsburgh, people move out of the ethnic neighborhoods to a new home—in Arvada, and Thornton, and Westminster. AND, because of the Depression, and World War Two, they had been making due and getting along with old cars and old houses. They were kind of tired of old things. God, you could get a new home with a GARAGE, you know. So that's what people did: They moved out of the neighborhoods. And then the Spanish-speaking people began moving in. Now, they had been moving up, not from Mexico, but from farms and ranches in southern Colorado, Texas, New Mexico. They worked the beets in the '30s. Some of them were recruited to work—they would work for less. So they began moving into Globeville. And they get jobs— CN: What time period are we talking about? ME: Well, they're moving in—they recruit Hispanics—Hispanics replace the Germans from Russia, in the beet fields, in the '30s. And not entirely, because a lot of the Eastern Europeans are still working the beets in the summer. Your kids can work the beets (chuckling), it's cheap labor. So, they start recruiting Hispanics to work in the beet fields. And of course, you're supposed—then they're going to go back in the fall. Well, they don't. So people began settling in Globeville, and in Platteville, and Loveland, and these beet communities. And then there are folks who moved up during the Depression, during the Dust Bowl years, from towns in southern Colorado, and got a job in the packing plants. Start moving—you'll see names. The 1940 Census became available, and then you start seeing Spanish surnames. But these are not, generally, people from Mexico. These are folks who will tell you that they're from Spain. Their ancestors are from Spain, and a lot of them no longer spoke Spanish. But guys like Lalo C. de Baca—he buys Yeta's house [?] on Sherman street in 1961. So he doesn't have to ride two buses to work in the meat-packing plant. He can walk there. And he is related—his grandpa's brother was a territorial governor of New Mexico. So he's related to the Cabeza de Vacas that are the Spanish explorers, really go way back. When the highway is built in the '60s, then there's big-time displacement. CN: Yeah, talk about that. ME: Oh. The first highway is the Valley Highway. And that's begun—after the war, there's federal funding. Eisenhower discovered the importance of transportation and moving troops in Europe. So, he's got a real push in Congress to get this national highway system built. Nationally, they go through a lot of ethnic neighborhoods—maybe to break up a Democratic voting bloc. But anyway, the Valley Highway is begun, and that displaces the western half of Globeville and the Argo neighborhood—the older, smelter neighborhood—it goes right through there, and the Italians that lived in the Bottoms. So, that's the first displacement. And it only goes from, like, 52nd to Colorado Boulevard to University Hills. It's not a very long segment, but it displaces people. 29:59 The bigger displacement is I-70. Right through the heart of Globeville, down 46th Avenue. And that starts in the 1960s. And it cuts the neighborhood up; it separates people from their church. You can no longer just walk anywhere in Globeville. And though they build this tunnel, so people can get to the Polish Church, that becomes a no-man's land. You're likely to get mugged in the tunnel. People don't use it. So there's a lot of flight from the neighborhood. I was at pancake breakfast at Holy Rosary one Sunday. I was talking about, "I'm a member of Western Slavonic," and about half-a-dozen Spanish ladies say: We're members of Western Slavonic. They got their home loans through the Western Slavonic in the 1950s, to buy a house in Globeville. There's a little bit of red-lining going on, where banks wouldn't loan on homes in Globeville. But you could get a loan from the fraternals. So Hispanics are joining the Western Slavonic and getting their loans. You also got loans from grocery stores—John Yelenick, Carl Gerhardt, these guys were Westerkamps [?]. The grocers acted as bankers, and people trusted them with thousands of dollars. But they gave home loans to people. People didn't trust banks, and banks didn't look kindly on immigrants. So, a lot of Hispanics got their loans from Carl Gerhardt, or John Yelenick, or the WesterKamps, or the Western Slavonic. And they start moving in in the '50s, in the late '50s. And the neighborhood now is probably 80-percent, at least 80-percent, Hispanic. (Pause.) CN: So, let's kind of move into the contemporary history of the neighborhood. You brought up the highway—what other kinds of things, in your lifetime, have transpired in the neighborhood. ME: Well, I don't live in the neighborhood. CN: Right. ME: So, um, I'm not as knowledgeable about that. In the '50s, the Globeville Civic Association was formed in response to the lack of city services in Globeville. The trash wasn't getting picked up. And this has been a constant cry since 19-3 [?]: We're paying for city services we're not getting. The alleys weren't paved; we have no curbs and gutters; the streets aren't paved. We don't have street lights. So, that association was formed, I think, in 1953. It has been, more or less, a way of trying to get things done in the neighborhood and trying to KEEP things from getting done in the neighborhood that—a constant presence at city hall, to rant about the creation of the highway. Then, in the 1980s, a guy named Joe Tekavec [?] who had been—Joe and Leah Tekavec—had been in the civic association forever. When Reverend Joseph Hirsch and his wife Matushka, Hirsch, took over at Transfiguration in 1984—the Orthodox have a history of civic involvement, physical civic involvement. And so, they were somewhat involved with the civic association, allowing them to meet at the church hall—"The Old Saw Mill" they called it. Then when they were campaigning to rebuild The Old Saw Mill, portions of it had to be subject to city council and the civic association. So Matushka, Paulette, got very involved with the civic association. They, at the end of that process—I think in 1986—Joe and Leah were elderly and wanted to step down, and they asked Matushka: Would you consider being the head of the civic association? 34:54 Well, she _____ [?] considered it and accepted. And she brought a skill set, from being a sociologist and a very good organizer. But it is THEN that you see the civic association starting to get this professional aspect of it. They wanted more city services, and they said: "Well, you don't have a comprehensive neighborhood plan." She said, "Well how do we get that?" "Well, there's no city planner available right now." So she put together all these different groups in the neighborhood, and they developed their own neighborhood plan that the city uses now, as a blueprint. It was so professionally done. So, they all of a sudden were getting community development funds for sidewalks, and street lights, and, "We're getting things done in Globeville!" We're cleaning up the graffiti, and we've got neighborhood groups that can get volunteers to paint homes for the elderly; a lot of outside involvement, and a lot more city involvement. And, if you wanted to needle a city, she knew how to do it. "Okay, you can't do that because …" or, "You can do that but we want this in exchange." So, that's sort of the beginning. And there's a 25-year—they were, the Hirsches were at Transfiguration for 25 years. And you can really see this imprint in community grants. And, you also begin to see groups forming to bring these suits against Asarco. This had been done before, but now it's got a professional aspect to it. So, these groups that organized the lawsuits get some high-powered—Macon Cowles takes on this first project. And they had originally brought it up in 1981, '83, and it's finally settled in 1993. The first set of lawsuits—getting somebody that dealt with what they call poverty law. The law books, you can see this, that the idea was that you put these polluting industries in immigrant neighborhoods. Well, anyway. There's more professional power in the neighborhood organizations. And I think they've just had a changeover in their organization and their officers and stuff. But one of the very good things to happen with that is the—it's 10 years old now—the Globeville Community Days that they used to have every year. And it was a function of the District Attorney's office. Restorative Justice, so that kids that were painting graffiti had to clean it up, and apologize to the neighbors. Bill Ritter's plan—very important. And it stops some of this stuff in the neighborhood; kids with nothing better to do. But anyway, the combination of that and the Orthodox Food Festival—is their church picnic, every year—so they combine that, that NOW the third weekend in July you have the Orthodox Food Festival and Old Globeville Days. And you've got Bulgarian dancers and food from every corner of every ethnic group in Globeville; and accordion music, and lamb being roasted. A special feature I like, is you can buy a beer, and a shot and a beer. (Light laughing.) It's this Eastern European tradition of a glass of slivovitz and a beer. You toss the slivovitz down, and then you sip your beer. Anyway. 39:45 Globeville, at one time, was sort of self conscious about its ethnic background, now it celebrates that ethnic background, including the old groups, the old Eastern Europeans. A lot of Eastern Europeans don't live in Globeville. Just remnants of those early groups. But with the fall of communism in the 1990s, there's a HUGE Polish-speaking congregation at St. Joseph's Polish Catholic Church—they've added another Polish-speaking priest. And they have ethnic food down there, and mass in Polish. So they don't live there, but there's that Polish presence still in the neighborhood. And the Orthodox don't live in the neighborhood, but the Bulgarians and the Carpatho-Russians that have left Europe, NOW have this presence in the neighborhood. And that church is thriving. It's bursting at the seams. Holy Rosary still has the remnants of the Slovenians and Croatians but a largely Spanish congregation. Two Spanish masses that are packed. I enjoy the fact that we all seem to get along, that we have our Polish bazaar—or, our parish bazaar—with the old Slovenians and Croatians and the Spanish folks, a lot of whom CAN speak English, but it's like the arms negotiations, where we're pointing and gesturing. And someone who can speak both languages is translating. But we get along, and we're richer for it. CN: What do you know about the National Western, complex, and that history. ME: They started in 1906. And, I have mixed feelings about it, because it's a good source of jobs. It's also gobbled up more homes than maybe even the highway. So, Elyria and Swansea larger disappeared. There's a lady that wrote a book about Elyria that's got all these pictures of little houses that are no longer there. So I have mixed feelings about it. I don't know what they intend to do. This is like the Superbowl. I mean, guys come here from some little town, "Puppy Breath," Montana. And they come for the National Western, but they're going to buy a truck, and a trailer, and maybe a refrigerator, and they'll stay in a hotel. We see them at Holy Rosary—they come for pancake breakfast during that time. So it probably brings more money into town than if we had a Superbowl. So, it's very powerful, and a source of jobs. I don't know what their plans are, I really don't. I don't know if anybody knows what their plans are, and I haven't attended the meetings because I don't live in the neighborhood—because it would be self-serving for me to say, "Well, I think you ought to do this." I don't have to live with those results. CN: So, what do you see for the future of these neighborhoods. What would you like to see? ME: What I'd like to see is: More positive attention. More—I'd like to see Globeville less trashy. A neighborhood where—I've got a distant relative, Leopold Korsak [sp?], lived in what was called Retreat Park on Emerson or Clarkson. And he had a little orchard and just this neat-as-a-pin house. And they all were. And now those are impound lots and salvage yards. It's real hard for somebody that lives down there –and there are a few people that do—to keep their houses up, when you're surrounded by trash, by junkyard dogs. Really, some of those are city owned. The zoning in Globeville has been inconsistent. I'd like to see less trash—I think light rail could be helpful. Light rail could—my FEAR is gentrification. I used to have a little house—I bought a house—in North Denver in 1979. They're calling everything Highlands. And the gentrification there—I couldn't buy that house now. It's priced people out of the neighborhood; it's made it more advantageous for someone to sell their little house that gets scraped, and they're putting up things that look like factories, or medium-security units of a penal institution, sort of non-descript architecture. So, I'd like to see—some of the gentrification could be helpful to Globeville. There are wood-working shops on 49th Avenenue. The River North neighborhood is pushing that way. Artisans would be helpful. But I don't want to see the developers level Globeville. And that could happen. 45:18 I'd like to see Globeville that looks like parts of New Orleans, where those little houses are treasured, and taken care of. I'd like to see more of a historical awareness in Globeville. There was a push at one time to rename Argo Park. And I thought: You don't know about Argo Park, you don't know about this whole lost civilization and the fact that there used to be animal cages and a bowling alley there, and a dance pavilion. This was huge. Why would you do that? I'd like to see a historical marker in front of the Croatian lodge, which is still there. And they used to have—before the churches were built, they had funerals there, and weddings there, and the labor union met there. Big labor battles in 1903; that's where they met. So I'd like to see, sort of, then-and-now signs around the neighborhood. I'd like to see the current residents aware of what went before; aware of these immigrants, like them, who came before. In Salida, and Ouray, history is big business. People go to the historic districts there—and they do in Denver. This could be very good for Globeville. Of course, that's what I'm up to my neck in, but that's what I'd like to see. CN: Perfect. That just about comes to the end of the areas that I had hoped to cover. What else would you like to say, that we haven't talked about—that I haven't asked about. ME: Globeville's—Father John Canjar, who is 92 and was one of 10 children raised in the neighborhood. CN: Currently 92 years old? ME: Currently 92 years old. And he was pastor at Holy Rosary from 1959 to '69. But he comes from an immigrant family. He said, "Globeville is what everybody says they want: the neighborhood where people celebrate their differences; people get along; people cooperate." This is—you know, they build new neighborhoods, like Stapleton, that are walkable. Globeville was walkable. Globeville had what everybody says they want—where people got along, they respected each other's differences, they celebrated that diversity. So I would like to see Globeville continue to be that neighborhood. CN: Perfect. ME: Alright. CN: Well, thank you very much. We really appreciate your taking the time to do this interview. ME: Oh—well, thank you so much. 48:11 [End of recording. End of interview.] |

Farro with Mushrooms, Balsamic Vinegar, and Thyme
(Makes 4-6 servings, recipe adapted from Whole Grains, Every Day Every Way.)
3 T olive oil
2 cloves garlic. each cut in half lengthwise
1/2 cup diced red onions (or use shallots which were in the original recipe)
24 oz. sliced baby bella (Crimini) mushrooms, stems cut in half lengthwise and caps sliced in 1/2 inch slices
pinch salt (I used Vege-Sal)
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar mixed with 1 T water (original recipe called for Marsala wine, but this worked great)
1 T chopped fresh thyme (or use 2 tsp. frozen thyme or 1 tsp. dried thyme)
3 cups cooked farro (see below for how to cook the farro. Cooked barley or brown rice can also be substituted.)
To make 3 cups cooked Farro:
1 cup farro
1 3/4 cups water
pinch salt
Use a large heavy frying pan for the second part of the recipe. (I'm not a fan of non-stick pans for some things, but it worked well here.) Heat the oil, then add the onion and garlic and saute until onions are starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Remove garlic and discard.
Add sliced mushrooms and stems, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, and saute over medium high heat until mushrooms have released their liquid and are well browned, about 5 minutes (or longer, depending on your pan.)
Stir in the balsamic vinegar/water mixture and cook until liquid is mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes. (If using dried thyme, add it with the balsamic vinegar.) Add cooked farro and heat 2-3 minutes, stirring gently. If your pan is not non-stick, you may need to add a bit of water when you heat the farro. When farro is heated through and moistened, add the fresh (or thawed) thyme, stir, season with salt if desired and serve hot.

Travinia brings contemporary elegance to Willow Lawn
It was another win for Willow Lawn when Travinia Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar opened there six months ago, nestled in the heart of the re-made shopping center. The contemporary American Italian restaurant boasts 13 locations up and down the East Coast, with the Henrico location opening in August.
In the same week, I hit up Travinia twice, once for lunch and once for a late dinner. At lunchtime on a weekday, I was overwhelmed by the smell of garlic and by the number of working professionals in nice suits on their lunch breaks. When we first walked in, I was concerned our meal would be a little too pricey based on the décor – it's a really nice place. Luckily, the menu has a variety of options for every budget. > Read more.

'SpongeBob' movie energizes with wit, laughter
There's a ton of sugar in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Literal sugar, as SpongeBob Squarepants (Tom Kenny) and Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke) inhale their own weight in cotton candy and eat ice cream, one scoop per mouthful.
At one point we burrow into the brain of our boxy yellow hero and discover the inner workings of his brain: googly-eyed cakes and candies that giggle and sing. All of which is extremely appropriate for a film like Sponge Out of Water. Because not only is the movie sweet (the "awwww" kind of sweet), but it's the equivalent of a 30-candy bar sugar rush, zipping between ideas like a sponge on rocket skates.
The story under all this is really not that complicated. SpongeBob flips burgers at the Krusty Krab. > Read more.

After driving by this place a thousand times I finally decided to stop in today out of curiosity- what a great shop! The store is the first floor of the residence and it is just packed with great German imports; chocolate, magazines, groceries, condiments, and lots more. They also have a deli and a bakery so you can get some authentic cakes and baked goods or just stop in for a juicy brat!
There is also is little area just to hang out and enjoy a coffee, the staff is very helpful and I definitely will be coming back to try some authentic cakes and meats in the near future.
