Critical Essay #5
In general, student essays reflecting on their experience confirmed Margaret Wilkerson's suggestion that "the theater offers a unique opportunity to step into the space of other individuals and other experiences-with safety". Wilkerson observes that Critics "outside or on the perimeters of [black] cultural experience" often "discuss black theater as if it were unrelated to their own lives". The same could be said of white students (and faculty), who often view race as attaching to others but not to themselves. For white students, participating in an interracial production that demands self-reflection may do more to interrupt this tendency than viewing African American drama "from the outside." The Purple Flower's accessibility to white performers-who can play either White Devils or light-skinned Us's-makes it particularly useful in predominantly white institutions, where white directors sometimes hesitate to direct African American plays focused unambiguously on "the black experience," and black and white students...

Research Update: Italy-Based Holding Company EXOR Outlook Revised To Stable On Consistently Low Leverage; 'BBB+/A-2' Ratings Affirmed Nov 11
- Language: English
- Published: November 2011
Several assets in the investment portfolio are facing significant market and operational challenges, in our view. We are revising the outlook on Italian investment holding company EXOR SpA to negative from stable and affirming the 'BBB+/A-2' long- and short-term corporate credit ratings. The negative outlook reflects the group's heavy exposure to, in particular, Fiat, and our opinion that Fiat's credit quality is weakening. PARIS (Standard & Poor's) June 30, 2009--Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said today that it revised its outlook on Italy-based investment holding company EXOR SpA to negative from stable. At the same time, we affirmed our 'BBB+/A-2' long- and short-term corporate credit ratings on the group. "The outlook revision reflects EXOR's heavy exposure to Fiat," said Standard...

Plot & Details
Can a girl find romance with a guy who has just buried the love of his life? Carys Reitman (Bijou Phillips) is a young woman who has a hard time connecting with other people, despite her friendly and accepting nature. Carys' problem might have something to do with one of her hobbies -- she likes to attend funerals for people she's never met, something she's done often enough that one of her best friends is a funeral director, Shane (Danny Masterson). One day, Carys is once again paying her respects when she meets Tyler (Ian Somerhalder), a handsome and charming man who was engaged to marry the deceased. Carys finds herself attracted to Tyler and thinks she may have finally found the man who can help her get over her anxieties about others, even though Shane and Lila (Marguerite Moreau), Carys' roommate, are certain pursuing him is a bad idea. As Carys dares to open her heart to Tyler, she also tries to mend her broken relationship with her mother (Jane Seymour). Wake was the opening night feature at the 2009 Cinequest Film Festival.

"Good morning, Haru-chan."
"Makoto, you'll make me burn the mackerel. And stop with the '-chan'."
I'm behind on school work but I just had to draw a quick doodle before bed.
They will sing their song on the way back from their Valentine's date.
Happy Valentines 2014! My Levi's a sucker for sweet things, so chocolate was the best thing Eren could think of. Special thanks to Lehamite for the idea.
"Sh-shut up brat!"
Titan hair Eren and Levi make even the bear embarrassed.
Merry Valentine's for everyone!
Here Valentine's day is actually a day for Friends and Friendship, not for romance or couples. Friends give each others little gifts as token for the friendship.
So, go forth and cherish your dear friends, whether they're real, animals or the fictional characters you love!
What comes to marine biology au, mermen give special gifts for their loved ones, like spouse and family members. Usually the gifts are things they find drifting in the waters or gotten lost into bottom of the waters (jars, glass bottles, bottle caps ect.) or something pretty from nature; pebbles, sea shells, plants, feathers.
Because Haru lives pretty near the shore, he finds all kind of interesting things forgotten, lost or left behind by humans. He gave Makoto a piece of mirror, while Makoto found a little bracelet which was dropped from some swimmer down to the bottom of the sea.
well, well, I'm afraid I'm closer to draw p0rn of these two than I thought. what are you doing hands?? btw this was really fun to draw I'm actually smiling like an idiot right now haha
It's not Valentines here yet, but I hope everyone is having a good day~
As always, también en español
[edit] I forgot to say that I've got the idea of the cat shaped chocolate volcano from this gif. Idk where is it from, but is totally something Mako would love.
Day 04/14 of February Month of Love!

There is no doubt that a team which lost 101 games is going to have more than a few question marks, but Theo Epstein and company have done their best this off-season to limit the amount of uncertainty for the Cubs going into 2013. While the Cubs brass has done their best to improve the team this winter, there are still a few big questions that Cubs fans everywhere should be asking themselves as spring training approaches.
1) Who will play third base?
If there was one glaring need on the Cubs roster that was overlooked so far this off-season it would be the third base position. The Cubs re-signed Ian Stewart to a low-risk one year deal and it appears that the job will be his to lose come spring training. While the Cubs organization is claiming that Stewart's mystery wrist injury which has been plaguing him during his time with the Cubs is finally resolved, fans should still not feel too comfortable with Stewart manning the hot corner. Stewart hit only .201 in 2012, appearing in ...

Autism Central PA
In keeping with the spirit of collaboration to benefit the autism community, the Central Pennsylvania Regional Autism Partnership is a joint effort of Penn State Hershey, Philhaven's Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities, and the Vista Foundation. Each of the partnering organizations has a long history of providing quality services to the autism community of Central Pennsylvania. The partnership allows for the pooling of resources and expertise to further enhance quality clinical services, cutting edge applied research, and innovative educational and training experiences.
Penn State Hershey: Penn State Hershey's Department of Psychiatry has a long history of providing services to individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The department's Division of Autism Services has taken a major leadership role in coordinating these services within the medical center. On an on-going basis, the Developmental Disorders clinic cares for over 300 individuals with ASD. The great majority of these individuals are 2 to 22 years of age. Over 1800 children with ASD have been evaluated in this clinic. For more information about Penn State Hershey's Department of Psychiatry please click here.
Philhaven and the Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities: In October 2005, Philhaven launched the Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities, a program designed to address the need for a single location where individuals, child through adult, with autism and mental disabilities could receive accurate diagnosis by a multidisciplinary team, as well as, longitudinal care to address social, emotional, and behavioral needs. The Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities currently cares for over 400 individuals over the lifespan with an age range of 2 to 65. To learn more about Philhaven and the Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders please click here.
The Vista Foundation: The Vista programs were founded in February 2002 with the opening of The Vista School, which then served four children, and now has 49 children enrolled in its day school program with plans to serve up to 75 children by 2011. In July 2005, The Vista Foundation began providing direct behavioral health services to children attending the school through its innovative Educationally-Integrated Behavior Support ("EIBS") program. The Foundation also supports numerous school districts in the Central Pennsylvania region through its Outreach Services program. The Foundation provides summer therapeutic activity services to adolescents with autism at its Hershey facility. The Vista programs are the product of a collaborative effort of dedicated parents, educators, and mental health professionals, and exist to bring world-class autism educational and clinical services to Central Pennsylvania based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis.

General Gardening This is for non rose related gardening. |
Thread Tools | Display Modes |
Well, thats true, a compost bin or stack is not a pleasant thing and in a small garden i agree they are hard to site. (as is dog waste, even in my good sized garden how to deal with that best is a constant challange!)
What I find harder to place is a greenhouse. The white and not very clean plastic/glass is somewhat even less attractive than a compost bin, and you cannot really cover it, as plants inside need the light.
My roses |
Oh, but at least ypu have one. I long for a greenhouse.
They come up on ebay a lot but i have no way to get one home atm! Last edited by Lulu-amongst-the-blooms; 3rd March 2012 at 09:53 PM. |
I have only a very small one, something like 50x50x200 cm - no space for a bigger one really. We used to have a proper one in the old garden, actually it was mostly made from the iron bars and the simple plastic - had to replace the plastic yearly, but otherwise it worked just fine.
My roses |
yeah, my greenhouse occupies a quarter of my entire garden - I sort of train my eyes not to see it and being glass, this is easier to do than when the tatty old shed was there. Even though it is not very nice to look at, I could not imagine not having it - I am an avid seed sower and grow peppers and cucumbers, peaches and melons and keep all the soil mixes and stuff in it. I try to keep the side which mostly faces the rest of the garden filled with stuff like mandevilla and tropolaeums. The whole thing stands on a concrete foundation which extends 2feet beyond the edges and makes a neat shelf for pots such as the lemon trees and solanums so a bit of disguise helps. Even so, the garden measures 3.8m x 9m and the greenhouse is 2.4m x 3m. The design is, ahem, tightly conceived and I have 2 much bigger allotments a kilometre away.
When we moved here eighteen years ago - we bought the place primarily for the 1/3 acre garden and not the semi-derelict house - the existing greenhouse was not only without glass but sited under a pair of enormous Yews. I later dismantled the framework and moved it into the middle of the garden alongside a concrete path. I could now get to it without a 75yd walk across the grass. Much of the glass I glazed it with came from old windows from the house I replaced. Cutting old glass is very difficult as - and it sounds odd to say this about glass - it becomes very brittle over time and fails to cut properly. I found the head height was poor so built a surround of concrete blocks then perched the greenhouse onto this. This gave me the head height I needed but does require stepping over the blocks to enter the greenhouse. I use the greenhouse for overwintering tender fuchsias as well as growing cuttings. There are presently dozens of rose cuttings which I've taken as various times of the year. I pruned the roses only last week so have some more on the go.
Sheds. I have two largish sheds which I acquired for free. Both had a fair bit of rot where the previous owners had placed them directly on the ground. I can never turn down things like old sheds and they can always be repaired with new timber and roofing felt to provide many more years of use. I built a brick plinth from the smaller one and a chunky timber framework on 'stilts' concreted into the ground for the other one. The garden has a prounced slope as we live on the sides of the North Downs. After breaking open the compost heap last week, I have been using the stuff to mulch parts of the garden including the rose garden. Being five or six years old, it's lovely stuff although I never found it built up the heat composts heaps are supposed to get. It simply rotted down to shear time. When we had a Welsh Collie, I buried a plastic drum into the ground first having cut out the base. With a lid added, this was where the dig muck went to rot down in it's own time. |
So, in the south of england plans for hosepipe bans announced today. I shall have to turn the pump on at the weekend to water, and thank goodness i have sucha thing.
Yes, they do, maybe the roses will be least affected.
However I am very afraid of drought, even if we haven't had any water restrictions so far and even if I'm kind of independent and have my own well and pump for watering the garden (I've figured out it's cheaper even if it's more incovenient) I'm still dreadful. That is because we've had years in which we've looked up to the sky and wished for rain while we baked in the heat. No matter how much you water, you can't achieve the same results as a good rain. And worse drought is misleading, it can rain, but if it isn't enough, the deeper layers of soil will be still dry and quickly dry out afterwards. However I didn't think that it would be a problem in England which is surrounded by water and I had the misconceived idea that it gets a lot a rain. |
I, too, am hoping and praying for a major change in the weather. Here it is absolutely crazy: Sicily (yes, Sicily) is being drowned by too much rain,and here in Tuscany (and elsewhere in the north of Italy),it almost never rains at all anymore, it seems. And this has been going on for at least a year...They were predicting desertification of Italy due to Global warming,yet it seems as if the South will be spared, whereas up here, we are in trouble... I am so dreading the inevitable arrival of summer and the heat. Will my roses even survive? Does it even make sense to try to grow them here? I am really beginning to wonder. bart

Arena Bridal & Formal Wear
I love this salon! I received the best customer service here out of the 7 salons I visited. Audrey was amazing...she took her time and was with me forever with patience and lots of excellent recommendations. They have very competitive pricing and are family-owned, which I love. Would highly recommend!!!
Great store! The staff is amazingly nice and helpful. A wide selection with great designers. Always has some type of sale going. Alterations included with the cost of the dress. Loved my experience.
I loved my dress!!! It fit me just the way I wanted it too!! They were all very helpful with ideas or pointers to help with my dress. When there was a problem, they were willing to fix it and it did indeed get fixed. The cost, the dress, and the service was everything I was looking for. I received sooooo many compliments on my dress. It was gorgeous and perfect! :)
I got my wedding dress at Arena. They were the first shop I went to and I tried on 7 dresses, the 7th one was it! The customer service was great, their was always someone to help. They also altered my dress and it came out perfect!
Arena Bridal was amazing! We got our bridesmaid dresses for my sister's wedding from there in April of 2010, and the service we received there was so great, that was the only store I was interested in looking at for my wedding Feb 2014. I found my dress, my bridesmaid dresses, and my mom's dress all on the same night. They have dresses to fit any budget, would highly reccomend checking them out!
I got my wedding dress and all my bridesmaids dresses here. Liz was a great help throughout the year. Loved the dresses but the quality of both was not that good. My wedding dress started falling apart the night of and so did the bridesmaids dresses. Obviously, that is not on the dress shop but on the designers.
Every consultant I worked with was extremely helpful and they helped me find the dress that I love. They are also super laid back which I liked and it made my dress shopping experience easier.
After having several bad experiences with "pushy" bridal shops, I went to Arena. They have beautiful dresses at reasonable prices. I was fortunate enough to get my dress from one of their sample sales. The sales rep (Ida) was a dream to work with. She was very attentive and patient and you could tell she just wanted me to be happy, no hidden agenda or pushiness. We ended up getting our bridesmaid dresses from there too and had the same wonderful experience.
This was the third place I went for dress shopping. They were so helpful and allowed me to try on as many as I wanted to get a feel for what I liked. I ended up in a beautiful strapless lace dress with jeweling at the top and down the back where it tied up. Would recommend to any bride. I also got our bridesmaids dresses here which were exactly what I was looking for all over the internet.
Thanks Arena!
They were easy to work with, I got the best price for my dress at Arena. Other shops wanted to charge me 500-800 dollars more than what I paid at Arena. They also do the alterations and dress storage for free! Great place!
The staff is very nice and personable. I was able to take advantage of thier Maggie Sottero trunk show and got 10% off my dress, free bustle, 20% all head pieces/veils as long as i want to the veil/headpiece trunk show, and free alterations (which they give to all brides). They have a wonderful selection of dresses. And they let you know right away when your dress is in! Again Staff was very friendly and did a wonderful job teaching my sister/MOH how to string my corset and do my bustle. I would go back in a heart beat. in fact I wish i would have got my bridesmaids dresses there; even though they don't do BMs' alterations.
I'm sure your wondering why i gave service a 4/5 when everything else is a 5/5 and i said they are very friendly. This is only because in the very beginning I wish they would have helped with trying on dresses just a little bit more. but i realize that not everyone is comfortable getting dressed infront of a stranger. Overall they are amazing ladies!!!
OK, so I know that everyone freaks out about what size their wedding dress was. I am not one of those people. But when Arena measured me they said that I was a size 20, and then tried to persuade me against ordering a small size. My jeans are a 12...and I KNOW bridal sizes run weird, but a size 20 I am not. I ended up ordering the size 18 (thinking the sales lady MUST know what she is talking about it) and when it comes in it is 4 sizes too big. The alterations lady (alterations ARE included so its not a scam to try and get more money) wanted me to order a smaller dress or take the sample which I refused to do.
For the most part they were able to take the dress in, but the bust never did fit totally right and I was left tugging up my dress all night long.
Arena Bridal has by far the largest selection of dresses in Metro Detroit for Bridesmaids, Brides, Flower Girls, and Mother of the Bride/Groom. Their service is top notch. But that does come with a slightly higher price. Also, they are conservative on their dress ordering times. I think they want to make sure the dresses are always their on time for your event. And judging my the large number of dresses they sell, they keep their customers happy. They were even able to handle a Mother of the Bride who was a little too demanding (and she ended up buying her dress at another store). The one touching point is they only do alterations on brides and mother of the bride/groom dresses, but not the bridesmaid of flower girl dresses. Otherwise, our experience with Arena was excellent.
My dress was beyond perfect, it was everything I ever dreamed of and Arena Bridal made my experience absolutely perfect! Once we called when we wanted to come pick the dress up and took a detour when we realized we had a lot of time to get there. Arena called to check to make sure we were okay and that nothing had happened to us! They value their customers and that in itself speaks volumes!! I felt like a princess on my wedding day. Thanks Arena
I loved this place. Everyone was so nice & helpful and they have a wide range of dresses as far as price. I didn't want to spend a ton on a dress an found a perfect one within my budget. Can't beat free alterations for the bride either!!
I received so many compliments on my dress...when Duane saw me he was so pleased with the type of dress I picked.
I can not say enough good things about Arena Bridal! They were amazing to work with! It was so different than working with David's Bridal (who I also went to, before choosing a dress from Arena!). At David's Bridal, they assign multiple people to one employee. At Arena, it's just you. They are amazing, from your first time looking, until you are completely done. Liz found out my style of dress, found one that was in my budget, and brought in a suggestion...and she was right! It was the one! It was perfect! I lived out of town during the wedding plans, and they were great about accomodating my fittings around when I'd be home so I didn't have to take time off of work! When we started looking for headpieces, we went to a few places, and I was very undecided. I went back to Arena, and Liz again helped me pick out the PERFECT headpiece that went with my dress! I have recommended everyone I know to go to Arena because you will be completely taken care of!
Awesome experience getting my dress and fitted.
Ordered bridesmaids just before the rush fee would have been applied and the dresses didn't come in until a week before the wedding, which was an added bit of stress and were the wrong style. We ordered the short style of the dress, but they came in long. It worked out though and I decided to keep the dresses long, which looked awesome and then we didn't have to worry about where the dresses would hit on all the girls. They also did the alterations for my bridesmaids, even though they normally don't.
This salon did a great job with my dress! It was so great working with people that actually cared about your wedding! I had some issues with my dress but the store took care of everything. Even though it came really close to the event before I could get my dress I never felt nervous. I knew this store was going to come through for me!
Michigan's go-to salon for everything wedding
Our full-service salon has been catering to brides for over 75 years! For generations we continue to provide brides and their parties with the most sought after gowns for their special day. Complimentary Alterations are our gift to our brides and mothers of the occasion.

King County environmental trends improve
People in King County are driving less and using less gas.
These are trends that could provide long-term benefits for the environment, according to the latest Environment Benchmark report by King County, which provides a comprehensive look at environmental trends.
The data in the report covers gas consumption through 2008 and vehicle miles traveled through 2007. It indicates that per capita gasoline consumption has decreased more that 10 percent since 2001 and per capita vehicle miles traveled has declined 5 percent from its peak in 1999. Influenced by the downturn in the economy, these trends are expected to continue into 2009.
Also highlighted in the report was that total gasoline consumption has declined 4 percent since 2001, nearly 32 million gallons. Total vehicle miles traveled has leveled off recently, declining slightly in both 2006 and 2007 despite population increases.
About half of the streams sampled by the Stream Monitoring Program in 2007 were rated "high concern" on the Water Quality Index, an increase over past years.
King County uses the Benchmark Reports to gauge the effectiveness of growth management planning policies and to make changes to policies or programs that are not having a desired outcome.
The report is on the web at www.kingcounty.gov/benchmarks.

Are Asian real exchange rates mean reverting? Evidence from univariate and panel LM unit root tests with one and two structural breaks
There are a number of studies that examine the purchasing power parity (PPP) hypothesis. The empirical findings from the extant literature for the PPP hypothesis are mixed. This article applies univariate and panel Lagrange Multiplier (LM) unit root tests with one and two structural breaks to real exchange rates for 15 Asian countries. The univariate LM unit root tests find evidence of PPP for two-thirds of the sample. The results from the panel LM unit root test support long-run PPP for the Asian countries in the sample. The results from the LM panel unit root tests differ from those of existing panel unit root tests of PPP for Asian countries that have not allowed for the existence of structural breaks.Download Info

Do i have a right to a settlement. I was with someone for 22 years The last 12 years we lived in a house that she bought. Over the last 12 years I have paid around 72000.00 dollars in mortgage payments. Then I was told to leave. Am I entitled to any settlement?
Maybe. Your title indicates that you were married, but your actual post indicates that you were living together. Generally speaking any property acquired during the marriage is community property. All property is presumed community, unless one party can prove it is separate. Even if it is separate, the community may be entitled to reimbursement for improvements or enhancements. If you had an informal (common law) marriage, then you have the same rights and responsibilities as if you were formally married. You need to meet with a lawyer to get a complete assessement of your situation.

SUGAR LAND, Texas, Jan. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Santrol, a Fairmount Minerals company, announced today the opening of the Columbiana proppant terminal for Marcellus and Utica shale operators. This strategically located infrastructure in northeast Ohio, south of Youngstown, enables operators to work even more efficiently by reducing proppant transportation cost from the terminal to the wellhead.

"Santrol continues to reinforce our commitment to customer excellence with the Columbiana opening," said Tom McCoy, director of Terminal Management for Fairmount Minerals. "Because the terminal is in the heart of the Utica and on the western portion of the Marcellus, our proppant is available immediately with a lower transportation cost."
Open 365 days per year, the terminal has a 500,000-ton annual capacity with direct access to Ohio State Route 11. The terminal's favorable location for operators' hydraulic fracturing work in the Marcellus and Utica formations is also on the main line of a class-one railroad. This is Santrol's 39th US terminal.
"We feel that we offer the broadest terminal network in the industry to our customers across the United States," said McCoy. "Our proppant is available at the right place at the right time."
About Santrol
Santrol, part of the Fairmount Minerals family, is a vertically integrated company with leading, environmentally responsible proppants for most applications. Strategically located infrastructure is supported by the most terminals and one of the largest private railcar fleets. Innovative, R&D-focused solutions ensure dependable, readily available products and services. For more information, please visit: www.santrol.com.

How to Start a Pick-Your-Own OperationThere are quite a few farmers that want to convert to a PYO operation and hobbyists who would like to start one from scratch. Here are some resources to help understand what is required, from both a business and technical aspect. And don't forget that your local county extension agent is your free resource to help you locally! See this page for the contact information to find your county agent!: Farmers often consider converting to a pick-your-own (PYO) because there is reduced labor required for harvesting, PYO's sell produce that is too fragile to ship, and most of the post-harvesting tasks (sorting the produce, storage, packaging, shipping) are eliminated. There are disadvantages, too, however: PYOs generally require long working hours and more liability insurance, the location of the farm must be reasonably close to population centers, and there must be room for parking and traffic. PYO's grew rapidly through the 1980s. This is commonly seen in "down" econmies when money is tight. Typically, when the economy is good, as it had been during most of the 1990s, PYO sales drop This may have changed as consumers have recently begun to realize that processed and prepackaged foods are often treated with more chemicals, preservatives and pesticides. But still, PYO's requires more of a time commitment, and freshly picked produce is less "convenient" than pre-packaged, pre-cut food (like lettuce mixes at the supermarket). The biggest variable in PYO sales is weather. Most PYO business occurs on the weekends in late spring and fall. If rain keeps customers away during part of those weekends, nearly all of the sales will occur in just a few days. For that reason, few farmers rely solely on PYO to sell their produce. There are certain key attributes that every successful PYO farm should have:
Even though most of the produce will be harvested by the consumer, some will have to be picked by the grower, so labor costs are not completely eliminated. Also remember that not everyone will want to pick his own produce, so some already-picked items should be on-hand. Marketing and AdvertisingA PYO grower must continually advertise and promote the farm. The best form of advertising is word-of-mouth, and the second-best is road signs. And these days, the internet is the very first place many people go to locate a business - add your site to a highly ranked specialty site ( that means www.pickyourown.org ! :-) . Other good advertising avenues include newspapers (not classifieds), PYO directories published by state Cooperative Extension offices, and direct mailings. Radio is not effective, except for special events. Billboards are not effective and television ads are usually cost-prohibitive Other places to advertise include County fairs or craft shows. Contests for various amounts of free produce can be a way to develop a mailing list. Many local papers and television stations are interested in human interest or new business stories in the area. Invite elementary schoolchildren to the farm for field trips. Remember, return customers are the key to success. Eighty percent of your business comes from 20% of your customers, and it takes five times as many resources to get a new customer as it does to keep an old one. CropsChoosing what to plant is an important decision. Fruits seem to sell better than vegetables, and early- and late-season crops are best. Sometimes, unusual crops like asparagus and cut flowers sell well. Long season and early season crops can be ideal for PYO operations, especially if there are a large number of operations in the area. Producers can provide several varieties of one crop to diversify their operations and encourage greater varieties of customers and increase customer satisfaction. If there are any specific ethnic groups in the area, otherwise exotic crops can increase sales, especially if a producer can develop a reputation as a source of the desired produce. It's hard to know how much to plant, and each operation will vary. Farms 30 miles away from a town with a population of 30,000 or more may have difficulty attracting customers, as will a farm 50 miles away from a city of 100,000. Most PYO operations should start small. Studies of Illinois strawberry farms show that about 400 customers are needed to clear an acre of strawberries with a 10,000 pound yield, and that pickers buy an average of a little more than 20 pounds of berries on each visit to a farm FacilitiesEvery PYO needs a parking lot and a checkout stand. A general rule for parking lot space is that 20 cars may be parked at a sixty degree angle, or 30 cars at a 90 degree angle, in a 1000 square foot area. The checkout stand should be placed so that it can be seen from the parking lot and will serve as the hub of business transactions. This is also the place to have tie-in items, like recipes, drinks, baked goods, crafts, and gift certificates. Optional facilities can increase the customer services that the PYO operation provides and also increase the goodwill of the firm. The facilities could help differentiate one PYO from another and increase the competitive edge. Some such facilities are play areas for children, designated picking areas for children, and picnic tables. PricingGrowers near cities usually charge more than those in rural areas where the average income may be lower and more residents have gardens and orchards. Some growers charge half the retail price, others charge slightly over the wholesale market price. In arriving at a price, don't ignore marketing costs. One grower estimated that PYO expenses are about 5-8 cents per quart of strawberries that would cost him 15-20 cents per quart if he hired pickers The simplest method for calculating prices is to sell by volume. Pricing by weight, however, can eliminate the problem of containers being over-filled by consumers, but this system requires more time and labor. Count pricing may also work for some large items. The price per item should be rounded to the nearest nickel or dime to make pricing easier for everyone. FundingIf you are looking for funds, investments, I.e., money, to start your farm or agri-entertainment operation, see this page about funding a farm. LiabilityProducers increase their liability by inviting the public to come on their property to pick produce. Generally, producers should be concerned about the safety of children and older people who are more likely to be involved in an accident. Most insurance companies will request that producers take measures to ensure customer safety and reduce their level of liability, doing things like putting away ladders, keeping chemicals locked up, and keeping animals penned up and out of the way. For more information, see this page about liability and then check out this article at www.agriculture.com and this article. FeaturesSome farms that offer PYO or have farmstands go on to consider entertainment farming. Agri-entertainment takes many forms: festivals, hayrides, petting zoos, seasonal events, and contests have all been used successfully. Most growers get into agri-entertainment slowly, and they often have a single creative idea that puts them ahead of the crowd. Festivals and events might include things like:

I'd like to see a pic of both of them!
I still can't imagine Bill playing tennis so a pic of them in action, or even better, a video of them playing would be cool!
Same, I definitely can not picture EITHER of them playing tennis.
They really like to tease us, don't they.. "Who else wants to see a pic of Georg in Bill's clothes?" "Does anyone want to see a pic of Bill in his sexy tennis outfit?" Noooo, none of us, not at all xD
By the way, Tom said he won this time but I think Bill is perfectly capable of beating him.
I mean..
Holy sh*t. I'm just merely realizing... a pic of sweaty, muscled, Bill O.o

Colm Tóibín is the author of seven novels and two collections of stories. His play, The Testament of Mary, is now being staged at the Walter Kerr Theatre in New York City. He has been a visiting writer at Stanford, the University of Texas at Austin, and Princeton, and is now the Irene and Sidney B. Silverman Professor of the Humanities at Columbia.
Alice James grew up in one of the most remarkable of 19th-century American families, and she was groomed to be no less remarkable than her brothers Henry and William. But a succession of poorly diagnosed ailments confined her to her bed for years at a time. Jean Strouse's Bancroft Prize–winning biography is a portrait of a thwarted life, and a panoramic recreation of the particular intellectual world in which it came to be.
An original collection of all of James's New York Stories.
The Go-Between is a masterpiece—a richly layered, spellbinding story about past and present, naïveté and knowledge, and the mysteries of the human heart.
