Police seek suspect in Oxon Hill homicide
Prince George's Police are looking for a 35-year-old Fort Washington man in connection with an Oxon Hill homicide.
On August 12, 2012, police were called to the 1100 block of Kennebec Street and found 37-year-old Alejandro Trevor Johnson suffering from a gunshot wound outside an apartment complex. Johnson was taken to the hospital were he was pronounced dead.
An arrest warrant has been issued for James Howard Braddy, of the 10000 block of Moreland Street in Fort Washington. He faces a first degree murder charge, police say.
Investigators say the shooting was "domestic" in nature.
Police ask that anyone who knows Braddy's whereabouts call the Homicide Unit at 301-772-4925.

Atletico edge seven-goal thriller
Atletico Madrid continued their fine goalscoring form but very nearly threw away a four-goal lead in a crazy 4-3 encounter with Rayo Vallecano at the Vicente Calderon.
Mario Suarez tapped home from Diego Costa's cut-back to give the hosts the lead at the break and they appeared to have made sure of the points with three goals in 10 minutes after the interval from Koke, Arda Turan and a Radamel Falcao penalty.
But the hosts took their foot off the pedal as the clock ticked down, allowing Rayo to score three times in the final 10 minutes.
Substitute Andrija Delibasic scored twice and Leo Baptistao added a third two minutes from time as the visitors moved to within touching distance of an improbable point, but they could not force an equaliser in what time remained.
Atleti had disposed of Athletic Bilbao 4-0 and Chelsea 4-1 in their previous two matches and they seemed determined to end Rayo's unbeaten record from the off.
Costa, who excelled on loan at Rayo last season, should have opened the scoring inside five minutes as Arda broke down the left and squared to the edge of the area but Dani Gimenez got down well to block his low effort.
Falcao should have done better as he shot over from just outside the area but the opener soon arrived as Costa got to the byline and his cross was slotted home at the back post by Suarez.
Arda passed up a great chance to make it two just before the break as his weak chip over Dani was blocked on the line and the Turkey international smashed the rebound over.
Atleti seemed to have put the game out of sight with a 10-minute blitz straight after half-time.
Great work from Costa left Koke with the easiest of finishes on 48 minutes before a fine team move allowed Juanfran to pick out Arda for the third seconds later.
Falcao comfortably fired home a penalty straight down the middle after Costa had been upended by Javi Fuego, to register his ninth of the season for club and country.
The introduction of Lass Bangoura and Delibasic gave Rayo an extra thrust as Atleti relaxed and they produced a stunning comeback in the final 10 minutes.
Delibasic grabbed the first two, slotting home crosses from Alejandro Dominguez and Lass, before Leo ensured a frantic finish when he slammed home from close range.

The SW-Xcape is a more balanced IEM with a sweet midrange and nice bass, yet never compromises detail anywhere in the spectrum, notably the highs. Highs are neither in the forefront or in the background; they are balanced with the rest of the spectrum and are present as the recording dictates. There is a slight emphasis on the midrange, which is great for strings, vocals, and rock, but is still...

Roland SH-09
It's not great, but it ain't bad! A very stripped down monosynth from Roland's classic SH-series. Its single oscillator only has PWM, ramp, square and noise waveforms. It has a similar architecture to the SH-101, the VCA can switch between gate or envelope, the VCF is pretty standard, and there is a sample-hold function which is great for voltage controlled filtering into acid and back! Another cool feature is its external input which will allow you to filter external audio through its VCF. Because they are pretty old now they will most likely have some functional problems like sticky keys, and noisy knobs and signal. It is used by Orbital, Vince Clarke, BT, Conemelt, Josh Wink, Banco De Gaia, Mr. Oizo, Ladytron, Jimmy Edgar, Dave Holmes, Freddy Fresh, OMD, and 808 State.

Don't waste your money on the SH09 pay the little extra and pick up an SH-2 (if you can get somebody to part with one).
I much prefer the sound of the SH-2 & SH09 to the over-hyped sound of the SH101.
Some say this synth is limited but most synths have only one thing they are really good at. Everything the SH09 does it does superbly. However, the unbeatable aces up its sleeve are the external input & envelope follower.
Sometimes these show up on ebay but it's best to avoid those with rust (unless the seller can provide a guarantee that everything is well sound wise so that you can get your cash back if you have been lied to by the seller). Also watch out for scams, such as email this email address@gmail for a great deal etc.
These will only get rarer so get one soon.

If your grad will constantly be commuting between work, classes, and study sessions at the library on the other side of the campus, do her shoulders a favor and shell out for the 2.4-pound Toshiba Portege Z835, an Ultrabook with nearly 7 hours of battery life and a speedy solid state drive. The notebook's 1.4-GHz Intel Core i3-2367M does not make it the fastest machine on the market,but it boots in just 21 seconds and has all the ports you'll need including VGA, Ethernet and HDMI-out connectors.
What, no Dell XPS 14z? For my money, that laptop sits at a pretty college student-friendly intersection between price and features.
So, surprisingly little talk of which computer to choose for, you know, school stuff. I guess you mentioned it with the Macbook and hinted at it with the Lenovo (why would you need epic battery life in a school library?), but what computer would you choose if you're going into engineering, for example?
And of course, probably the most important feature for any college student (assuming we're actually talking about computers for school rather than expensive toys for students) is a high-quality display, probably matte. Because most dedicated students will be spending a lot of time staring at documents and pdfs on their computers.
Yes. I don't understand why engineers, the people designing (pick your own verb) all of these products, receive little attention to none. I'd like some advice on what computer I'll need for a math and science intensive curriculum, possibly integration with digital note taking. I'm also a little worried about not being able to balance battery life with portability and processing power, which I'll need for circuit design (EE majors!).
I may be wrong but it eems this way from a google search for "best laptops for engineering students".
For EE atleast, math, science and epectrical ngineering usually youll only need sufficient memory to run matlab all SPICE circuit simulation software that is free does not use more resources than matlab pretty much any laptop nowadays with 2gb of memory sufficient hd space and a 1.6 GHz+ cpu is way more than enough for this curriulum. Any full blown EE industry standard software you need runs either on linux and/or too expensive for someone to purchase on their laptop i.e. tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars per license per year . I know my xps m1330 laptop lasted me more than half my undergrad and grad education (and still used just for my music now since work supplieswith a computer) where most of its functionality isnt used since i wasnt big on gaming and movies.
Fire the writer of this article. Garbage!

Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream Speech" is a gift. And no matter how many times I hear his speech over the radio or on the television, I'm moved and inspired. It never gets old.
But, it's always nice to have a bit of creative inspiration infuse a classic speech. And this video from SALT retelling the concluding four minutes of Dr. King's speech does just that. You hear young and old, black and white, male and female recite Dr. King's moving words in English and Spanish. It'll inspire you too.
I encourage you to share it with your closest friends and newest colleagues. And, I'll echo a question put to us by Elizabeth Myer Boulton, the creative director behind the film:
How far have we come on the journey to social justice and what must be done to achieve the dream King so eloquently articulated in 1963?
This man is a voice for all ages and all seasons. Sadly, most people have probably never heard of this great civil rights leader. Vincent Harding wrote speeches for Martin Luther King Jr. and was one of his closest friends. But, he doesn't live in the past. He is teaching new generations about the lessons of that time — and how those lessons can repair divisions in America today. He finds hope in young people today and says they are his answer to the question that drives him: "Is America possible?"
The Day Martin Luther King Spoke to Me as a Failed Man
by Trent Gilliss, senior editor
Rarely are larger-than-life historical figures relatable as human beings. For me, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a character of history books and film strips. A man to be admired for his empowering speeches and his inspirational marches. Although I knew he was a towering preacher, a man of God, I never thought of him as a person wrestling with his own weaknesses, grappling with his own frailties and contradictions.
That is, until I heard this part of his "Unfulfilled Dreams" sermon (audio above) given in the final months of his life:
"The question I want to raise this morning with you: Is your heart right? If your heart isn't right, fix it up today. Get God to fix it up. Get somebody to be able to say about you, "He may not have reached the highest height, he may not have realized all of his dreams, but he tried." Isn't that a wonderful thing for somebody to say about you? "He tried to be a good man. He tried to be a just man. He tried to be an honest man. His heart was in the right place." And I can hear a voice saying, crying out through the eternities, "I accept you. You are the recipient of my grace because it was in your heart! And it is so well that it was within thine heart."
I don't know this morning about you, but I can make a testimony. You don't need to go out this morning saying that Martin Luther King is a saint. Oh, no. I want you to know this morning that I'm a sinner like all of God's children! But I want to be a good man! And I want to hear a voice saying to me one day, "I take you in and I bless you, because you try. It is well that it was within thine heart." What's in your heart this morning? If you get your heart right."
For a man without religious convictions or a spiritual mooring, I heard a sermon in that moment that spoke to my own vulnerabilities as a husband and a father, as a son and a friend. And he does it in the most honest way: by asking, at least in my hearing, for understanding and forgiveness from his congregation at Ebenezer Baptist Church — the church his father founded — in Atlanta, Georgia.
You see, I've never been all that comfortable with the language of sin. It's often wielded as weapon in one's quest for a supernatural resting place. So often this language strips a man of his dignity, makes him feel small, inconsequential, a cog in a nasty machine.
But Dr. King in this sermon elevates the human spirit by making himself vulnerable. The language of sin is human frailty united with goodness and desire. We long to be more than we are, and stumble many times along the way. Dr. King expresses that goodness and frailty inside all of us. He points the finger at himself. He holds my hand and says come walk beside me and take stock of your life. He tells me not to shrink but to acknowledge, repent, and stride forward. He lets me know that being one of the fallen is to be a divine creature. He lets me know that striving to be a good man, a good father, a good husband, is part of the journey — that one's quest to be more than his basest self is redeeming, and flawed.
Dr. King's context was the 60s and civil rights. You hear a gentle leader at his most prescient; he would be killed a month later in Memphis, Tennessee. The tension and anxiety in this sermon are palpable, thick with a foreboding awareness that his life's work would be coming to an end.
His legacy today endures in so many ways. But, for me, it's the preacher in the pulpit who called me back to my own humanity, rescuing me from abject despair. In that moment one spring night several years ago, he reminded me, "It's alright. Keep on trying." I want to be a good man.
Our colleagues next door at American RadioWorks just released a riveting documentary about the last year of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s life.
Change Happens on the Margins: Moses Wright and the Dawn of the Civil Rights Movement
by Nancy Rosenbaum, producer
"I think that change comes about at the margins. I've always believed that. People in the center are not going to be the big change makers. You've got to put yourself at the margins and be willing to risk in order to make change."
—Frances Kissling
Today, on Martin Luther King Day, we're wrapping up a new show with Frances Kissling, a vocal leader in the public conversation about abortion for over three decades. Her belief that change comes about at the margins reminds me of Moses (Mose) Wright, a Mississippi minister and sharecropper whose personal act of bravery sowed the roots of what would become a burgeoning civil rights struggle in the South.
Wright is best-remembered as the great uncle of Emmett Till, a 14-year old boy from Chicago who was viciously beaten and murdered in Mississippi during the summer of 1955 by two white men for allegedly talking to a white woman. Wright testified in court and publicly identified the defendants, with two simple words "Dar he." ("There he is.") At that time, Wright assumed great personal risk by bucking social conventions codified by segregation. Newspaper accounts of the day took note of remarkable actions. His life was threatened but he did not back down.
After the trial (the two men were acquitted and later admitted to the murder), Wright left Mississippi for Chicago, vowing never to return. While his personal act of dignified bravery didn't affect the trial's final outcome, he demonstrated that the tacit rules of segregation could be questioned.
To commemorate Martin Luther King Day and learn more about Mose Wright's heroism and the role of Emmett Till's murder in galvanizing what was then a civil rights movement still in its infancy, watch this excerpt from the award-winning series, Eyes on the Prize.
"I Tried to Be a Good Man"
by Trent Gilliss, online editor
One of the more fabulous aspects of working at SOF is being surrounded by a crazy number of talented people from other other regional and national programs that are part of our parent company, American Public Media (if you'd like, I can try to explain the complexity of the public radio world and distributors some time). I'm overwhelmed by the wide array of topics and material being produced and, unfortunately, never get to hear.
Our colleagues next door at American RadioWorks just released a riveting documentary about the last year of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s life. As a bonus, the executive editor Stephen Smith presented a live performance for his colleagues — a 35-minute pictorial narrative he had given at a commemorative event in historic Riverside Church in New York.
It's not often that our topic area overlaps so overtly with our next-door neighbors' material. In this case, King's religious and moral language wasn't ignored or minimized for the political, the historical, the newsiness of it all. It wasn't an anecdote. Sitting in a small crowd of 50 with my colleagues, I was engaged from the first photo, an image of King preaching with Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel sitting in the background.
I was overtaken by his recorded words from a sermon given at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta in 1968, shortly before his assassination. I had never heard King like that before.
King's context was the 60s and civil rights. His legacy today is more than that. His ability is to relate to one's personal failures and struggles and say, "It's alright. Keep on trying." As a husband and a father and a journalist, "I want to be a good man."

for the Patagonia Men's Long Sleeve Pima Cotton Shirt
Average Custy Rating:
(based on 14 reviews)
I have been buying Patagonia Pima Long Sleeve Cotton Shirts for over a decade (I actually still have some that have lasted for over 10 years). The material has gotten a little bit better over time and the style is as fresh as ever. The Pima shirts have a relaxed fit that hasn't changed very much over time. You can't really go wrong with Patagonia products. Great, ethical company!
I'm 6'3", 235 and this shirt fits perfect. I'm a big fan of the fact that Patagonia makes things a little bit larger and I'm pretty sure they do it just for me. Not that I'm that big of a deal, but these shirts make me feel like I am. Usually 100% cotton shirts have a little bit of shrinkage in them but I haven't noticed any with this shirt. Big props to Patagonia for that one. I have 4 of these shirts and 1 of them is constantly on my back. Trust me, you'll love it.
Went with the XL and the size was great. I have a 44 inch chest, I am 5'11", and about 210lbs. This is a great fit and hangs down to my lower waist which is great to help cover my plumbers crack. Helps make me look real sharp!
These shirts are super LEGIT! I bought 2 couldn't be happier; also got them on sale... awesome. First off, the shirts are made by Patagonia and they never disappoint. I'm about 5'11" and I would say an average build. I like my shirts to fit a little more traditional/relaxed, so I usually ordered larges from Patagonia. I didn't realize at the time that the shirts were 'relax' fit, so they are just a little bigger than I expected, but the fit it is fine, the sleeves are just a little long; a problem that easily solved by rolling up the sleeves, which is my personal preference when wearing shirts. The plaid patterns are awesome I have received a ton of complements on both of the shirts.
I am about to buy two of these with rewards points. Went to my local shop to check sizing since I am 6'4" and 175lbs with a crazy wingspan. I tried on a large and the sleeves fit great and it wasn't baggy everywhere else to make up for it. The guy said he washes his on cold/cold and hang dries to make sure it doesn't shrink the organic cotton which makes it so comfy.Can't wait to get them in the mail!!!!

text: A Look at Today's Health Headlines | Smoker's Lung Better Than Nothing for Patients Awaiting TransplantsIf you needed a lung transplant and only a smoker's lungs were available, would you accept them? By Jaimie Dalessio, Senior Editor TUESDAY, May 29, 2012 — You need a lung transplant. Should you settle for a set that belonged to a smoker? A study published today in The Lancet says yes. Getting the lungs of a smoker offers a better chance of survival than staying on a waiting list, according to the findings, even though people who receive lungs from non-smokers will probably live longer following transplant. Researchers in the United Kingdom — where roughly 40 percent of lungs transplanted come from a donor with a history of smoking — took to the UK Transplant Registry and Office of National Statistics to study the survival rates of 2,181 adult patients awaiting lung transplants between July 1999 and December 2010. Their findings suggest that keeping smokers' lungs in the donor pool, a policy in the UK and also in the United States, improves the survival chances of patients awaiting transplants. The current waiting list for a lung transplant, based on U.S. Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) data as of May 17, 2012, includes1,647 candidates. Finding a Matching Lung Most need new lungs because of emphysema, COPD, cystic fibrosis, and other lung conditions. So far this year 285 donor lungs have been recovered, according to the same OPTN data. In 2011, 1,822 lung transplants were performed in the United States, according to the United Network for Organ Sharing. About half of the people on the waiting list receive a lung in any given year, according to the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute. "Rejection of this donor-organ resource would increase waiting-list mortality and is ill-advised," lead author Robert Bonser, FRCS, FRCP, of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, and University of Birmingham, says in a release from the NHS Blood and Transplant Press Office. "Although lungs from such donors are associated with worse outcomes, the individual probability of survival is greater if they are accepted than if they are declined and the patient chooses to wait for a potential transplant from a donor with a negative smoking history," the study authors write in their report. Smoking history is just another factor to consider, like the donor's age or cause of death, when evaluating an organ, Norman Edelman, MD, chief medical officer for the American Lung Association told the Associated Press. "There is rarely an 'ideal' organ available," he said. "I'd rather take the lungs from a smoker than get no lungs at all," Dr. Edelman told the AP.

Syntrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate Powder Fuzzy Navel -- 2.14 lbs
A great summer flavor!
I use Syntrax Nectar protein powder to make myself an after workout drink. I have been using the yummy strawberry flavor for a while. For summer, I thought the orange/peach sounded like a fun change. Bang on - it's a great refreshing drink over ice after a steamy summer workout.
Love the grams of protein compared with the low calories and GREAT taste!
August 1, 2013
Wow this product really taste great!
The review for the Syntrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate Powder Fuzzy Navel was so true, normally I am skeptical but this one really tastes great, you will not be disappointed.
July 29, 2013
Syntrax nectar Fuzzy Navel tastes great!!
I've been looking for a protein powder with great taste and low in carbohydrate for a long time now. Thank goodness I found Syntrax Nectar Fuzzy Navel!!! It has 25 grams of quality whey protein isolate with 0 grams carbohydrate. It's a delightful change from my usual protein powders. It tastes light, more like a juice than a heavy shake. It mixes very easily and is very refreshing. It is easy to meet my protein requirements now and I look forward to my shake in the morning.
June 29, 2013
My favorite flavor!
Syntrax Nectar is the only protein powder I like. Fuzzy Navel is my favorite. I also like to mix 1 scoop of Roadside Lemonade and 1 scoop of Crystal Sky. Perfect shake for drinking before, during and after my Jazzercise class! Also a good meal replacement if you're looking to lose a few pounds.

comparison to the big four, is an absolutely first-class achievement by him."
Kenny Dalglish, former Liverpool manager: "Moyes has done a fantastic job at Everton. I've got a great deal of respect for David Moyes."
Steve Bruce, Hull City manager: "He's cut from the same cloth [as Sir Alex]. It wouldn't surprise me if he got the job and I'm sure he would be very successful. He's not had huge finances but he has still managed to put an Everton team together that comfortably finishes in the top 10."
Everton colleagues
Tim Howard: "David Moyes has a real good recipe for success. He doesn't just bring in every good player available. He brings in guys who can play two positions who will also buy into [the club's ethos]. And then he guides them along. He's an incredible motivator. And he gets better at it every year."
Phil Neville: "His method is to push you to your limits in training and then the match is easy. He has developed as a manager too because he has looked at things differently. He's gone from a British-based, solid team to a more foreign-based one with more flair. The DNA of a David Moyes team is clear: hard work, spirit, togetherness and fight."
Steven Pienaar, Everton midfielder: "He is one of the best, if not the best manager in the Premier League. It shows in the way we are playing."

Founder & Publisher Seija Wegg was born and educated in Finland. After a career in the international marketing and hospitality industry, which included extensive travel in Europe, she established an office in Scandinavia for a Swiss-based printing and publishing company.
Assistant Editor Roger Thiedeman was born and educated in Colombo, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). At the age of 11, a passion for motor cars—especially the Rolls-Royce marque—led to an avid interest in aviation when he was presented with a bundle of Rolls-Royce aero engine brochures. With reading and writing dear to Roger's heart as long as he can remember, he first had an article published in a newspaper—and was paid for it—shortly before his 11th birthday. Later, he was appointed co-editor of his college magazine.Roger emigrated to Melbourne, Australia, in May 1972. In November 1974, he joined Ansett Airlines of Australia as a reservations clerk. During a career with Ansett spanning nearly 26 years, all of which were spent in Melbourne, Roger progressed through various supervisory and managerial positions in the Reservations Department, culminating in his appointment as reservations manager, for the state of Victoria, in 1988.Although very much an Aussie in terms of outlook, attitudes, and interests, Roger maintains strong links with the land of his birth, not least in matters aeronautical. He is continually researching the history of aviation in Sri Lanka, contributes articles on various aspects of Sri Lankan aviation—both military and civil—to a variety of newspapers and magazines, and has assisted in the compilation of an official history of the Sri Lanka Air Force. Roger also regularly writes articles and book reviews for the Rolls-Royce car club journals in Australia, the USA, and the UK.
In September 2000, Roger opted for early retirement from Ansett Australia—almost 12 months before the airline's demise. Soon after leaving Ansett, Roger was invited to join the Airways editorial team. Based in Australia, he enjoys the challenges of his rôle in support of editor in chief John Wegg, the job's logistics being greatly facilitated by citizenship of the 'global village', and the Internet and email revolution.
Roger Thiedeman lives in Keysborough—a southeastern suburb of Melbourne not far from Moorabbin Airport—with his wife Ingrid.

Valero upgrades alkylation control at seven refineries
Invensys to deploy its HF alkylation measurement solution to improve cost control, real-time safety, and environmental performance.
Valero Energy has signed a multi-year agreement with Invensys Operations Management to provide its patented ACA.HF advanced alkylation measurement platform. In the first phase, Valero will implement the solution at seven refineries globally. The system monitors and measures hydrofluoric acid levels in real time by analyzing differential responses from online sensors, helping to improve the safety, reliability, and environmental performance of the refinery and creating new opportunities to reduce operating costs.
Commonly used in petroleum processing, hydrofluoric acid is a highly toxic catalyst that must be carefully managed and controlled. Accurately analyzing how much HF is re-circulating within the process contributes significantly to increasing the efficiency of the refinery because it can improve crude stock yield and associated costs. Early approaches to HF monitoring involved taking manual samples and analyzing them in a laboratory. However, this approach, even when carefully executed, potentially exposed lab workers to severe toxins, and its accuracy was limited. While more recent techniques can produce more accurate readings, their adaptation for real-time online monitoring is typically complex and costly.
Invensys Operations Management contends its advanced measurement solution brings new levels of simplicity, cost effectiveness, and employee safety to that task. By using real-time online sensors instead of people, it significantly reduces the possibility of accidental exposure, thereby diminishing the risk to employees and curtailing the potential for environmental hazards.
"An integral component of our InFusion Enterprise Control System, our HF alkylation measurement solution can openly communicate with a larger refinery- and enterprise-wide control, information, and decision-support system to provide real-time data and analysis," said Maxie Williams, vice president and enterprise client executive, Invensys Operations Management. "And because it is built from rugged materials long proven in industrial HF applications, implementing it costs about half that of other systems and requires little maintenance, with estimated mean time between failures exceeding 29 years. It is a perfect example of how we are combining advanced control and instrumentation to improve and optimize the real-time safety and performance of the operation."

Saving The Best For Last
Magnus Berger and Tenzin Wild always throw The Last Magazine's fashion week parties at the tail end of the week—the time, in other words, when designers and editors can see the light at the end of the tunnel and are especially eager to kick off their six-inch heels and let off some steam. That's just what they did last night at the mag's fourth-issue launch party at Pravda.
"I first came to New York in 1998, and one of the first places I went to was Pravda," Berger explained. "It's part of a different era but it feels new, and a lot of my friends had never been here. Our parties are not really about doing anything big or fancy. We just want to have fun." He doth protest too much. "Magnus always throws the best parties," said model Julia Stegner, surveying the tiny, tightly packed dance floor. Fueled by male models-cum-DJs James Penfold and Simon Bolzoni, Daria Werbowy and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld held court there for quite some time. Kate Bosworth took a few spins before retreating to a corner booth. New York City Ballet principal Benjamin Millepied probably could have taught all in attendance a thing or two, but he and his date, Natalie Portman, stayed on the sidelines.
"You need lots of alcohol," Stegner said of what makes a great fashion week party, before adding, "I'm not partaking." Turns out Stegner was leaving for Italy early in the morning for work ("It's not so good for the face"). But the work was done for attendees Richard Chai, Phillip Lim, Joseph Altuzarra, and Alexander Wang. The latter (pictured with Stegner at another fashion week event)—who knows a thing or two about throwing raucous after-parties—may have sat this season out, but he has something up his chenille sleeve. "We're saving all of our ammunition for September. You can always do bigger and better things in September."

This 'hostel' is almost worth the price. The facility is seedy and in need of some serious maintenance. The location-in West Asheville-is good and within ten minutes of the downtown 'fashionable' area. Six people in a tiny room is too many.

The staff woman was friendly and nice but reeked of BO. She smelled up the ENTIRE house (I am not exaggerating). As far as value goes, the night before, my friend and I stayed at a Best Western with two Queen beds (and our own bathroom) for $72. We paid $61 at the Hostel to share a Queen futon in a hot cramped room and practically wet ourselves waiting to get into the bathroom. But location was better. And, if you want to swap stories, the hostel wins

Please join us for FlowerMart 2014
Baltimore's annual rite of Spring
which will take place in the parks of Mt. Vernon surrounding the Washington Monument on Friday, May 2, 2014 and Saturday, May 3, 2014 from 11AM to 8PM both days. FlowerMart has no admission charge and is full of flowers, food and fun for families. It is also a good place to buy gifts for a friend, loved one or yourself because arts and crafts are in good plenitude. See you at the Mart!
It was a great time in Baltimore
for FlowerMart 2013
Lovely weather, happy crowds, great entertainment. Here are some of the first photos:
Savannah Decker won the Best of Baltimore category in the Grand Hat Contest despite losing her basketball and Meg Moran won the Most Imaginative category, managing to keep her hat together enough to win. The Wildflower Costume Contest winners were quite colorful and the Pet Parade featured ultra-cute dogs. The bands were playing and Children's Camp had several hands-on activities.
Stay tuned for more photos and contest winner names.
If you want a review of what was, read on...
The food was absolutely scrumptious, with crab cakes, pit beef, hot dogs, hamburgers, smoothies, Boordy wines, vegetarian and chicken wraps, fried rice, shawarma (a new Middle Eastern dish), chocolate-covered strawberries and more sold in the food court. In the Gourmet Food section at the monument, vendors were selling gourmet coffees, teas, hot chocolate, a wide variety of fresh baked pastries, freshly baked strudels, gourmet chocolates, freshly baked cakes and cup cakes, great soups, dips, frozen Java pops, chutney and more. Of course, FlowerMart's signature lemon peppermint sticks were sold in their usual location next to the Peabody Institute.
Many vendors took advantage of the opportunity to sell their wares or inform the public at FlowerMart 2013. A great variety of flowers, plants, herbs, garden products and unique arts and crafts were available for purchase for gifts or for yourself.
Radebaugh's lined up in its usual location just north of the Monument. It brought impatiens walleriana (the standard type) even though the downy mildew fungus has reared its ugly head in and around Baltimore. Here is what Kaitlin Radebaugh says about this situation: "If people had impatiens last year that were ok, there is no reason they should not try them again. If they had a problem with downy mildew they should not try them again as we did not have a cold enough winter to kill off the disease." Radebaugh's also brought substitutes for impatiens: New Guinea impatiens, begonias (all types), coleus, alyssum, dusty miller, caladiums, ivy (hedera helix), vinca minor (periwinkle), ipomoea, iresine, alternanthera, lobelia and torenia.
Locust Point Greenhouse brought substitutes for impatiens walleriana: New Guinea impatiens, caladiums, and coleus in pots.
Landreth Seed Co. a FlowerMart vendor of many years, has been featured on PBS and, brought about 30 different varieties of heirloom tomato plants, approximately 20 different heirloom hot and sweet pepper plants, and a variety of heirloom eggplants from around the world. In addition, they sold more than 350 different heirloom seed varieties, vintage-designed garden tools from Britain, horseradish and asparagus roots plus more than 30 unique herb varieties.
Carnivorous Plant Nursery sold its marvelous carnivorous plants, Emerge had bedding plants, perennials, vegetable plants and hanging baskets. Spring Thyme Nursery sold 3" herbs: basil, rosemary, lavender, oregano, thyme, parsley, sage and many others; "Proven Winner" 4" annuals and 12" baskets. Lorelei's offered garden stakes, tin flowers, and kinetic moving garden ornaments. The non-profit Alliance, Inc. not only sold spider plants, wandering jews, purple banes, moses-in-the-cradle to benefit people with disabilities, but also had a horticulturist on hand to advise buyers.
New this year was Greg's Antiques & Garden, which featured garden metal and art pieces for landscaping such as planters, baskets, topiaries, trellises, fairies and arbors.
Other new vendors are EZ Hang Chairs (outdoor hanging chairs and hammocks), Mayan Dreams Imports (planters), Old Tradition Spice (edible bird houses), The Coles (decorative garden accessories) and Hang-A-Pot The Hidden Hanger (hidden pot hangers for fences or walls and lipped pots).
There were so many arts and crafts vendors, you could be overwhelmed with the selection. Many long-time jewelry and women's accessories vendors returned, such as Silver and Gold Jewelers, Claudia Chappel, Plum Blossom Kimono and the non-profit Purses for Plase, which also sold teddy bears. Definition Boutique and RU HIP? were just two of the vendors appearing for their first year at FlowerMart. Here is a partial list of what was in this category: watches, purses, shirts, hats, scarves, sandwich bags, clip-on cellphone pouches. Come and see what kind of decorations last year's Booth Decorating winner, Tigerlillyshop/Yummy & Company, put up this year.
Pottery was sold by A Little Pottery, Demca Demo, Rebuilding Through Art and Two Sisters Pottery
Items for children in INKATREASURESHOP.com, My Magic Bubble Shirts, Frog Music Garden, MIRASA DESIGNB, Off the Wall Art, Woman's Industrial Exchange and Red Persimmon Imports.
Vendors featured art and/or photography include Larry Stevens, Martha Dougherty - Watercolors, oooh La La Mosaic, Norden Arts, ChrisBrenSchmidt Photography, Mark Cottman Gallery, Three Stone Steps, Amazing Photo Letters, Patty Hankins Fine Art Floral Photography, jlc Exposures, and Dave Anders.
Rounding out the arts and crafts vendors are JJA Sea of Glass (handblown / handcutglass and paperweights), Patsy's Cards (returning after an absence of several years) and the non-profit Refugee Youth Project (coasters, magnets, lanterns, decorated pots).
Nourishing both your soul and your skin: Buhdze Natural Nourishment, You and Me Soaps, Little Mountain Soap Company, Shea Brothers Skincare, Scented Crystals by Kaya and Terra Verde.
Some lovely linens for a housewarming or your summer barbecues: Janice's Table, La Cigale, Open Eyes Press and Tenzin Tamang carry gorgeous products.
Wellness vendors included Country Pride Food Service, who had in-home food service brochures and pamphlets and Chase Brexton Health Service, who taught proper nutrition and give gardening demonstrations. Glenmore Specialty Pharmacy took blood pressure and had information on nutraceuticals. Baltimore Back and Pain Center made a return visit. From Janet Y. Seeds, Public Information Officer: "The Maryland Board of Pharmacy has had a presence at the Flower Mart for over 10 years because pharmacy patients and their care are important. Lemon sticks were offered by the Maryland Board of Pharmacy booth located near the big statue."
The Peabody Institute's vendor space arranged for a tour of their lovely facility. Three archdiocese schools sold flowers from their well-decorated booths circling the Monument: Institute of Notre Dame, St. Elizabeth School and St. Ignatius Loyola. Baltimore City Public Schools featured healthy food tasting, a flower arranging demo and an environmental science demo.
Several commercial vendors joined FlowerMart this year and had information and special offers for their visitors. The Baltimore Sun, New York Times and XFINITY/COMCAST represented the media. In addition, government vendors had information on their services, including the Baltimore City Police Department, who had information on recruitment.
Last year's Grand Prize Booth Decorating Contest winner, The Modell Performing Art Center at the Lyric/Lyric Opera Baltimore, offered promotions, raffle tickets and opera bears. Centerstage returned with information on their 51st season.
The Walters Art Museum offered free, family-friendly art activities both Friday and Saturday for children and their families to make and take. They created "Garden Crowns" at their FlowerMart booth, then on Saturday, the museum offered free Drop-in Art Activities from 10am-3pm as they created "Stained Glass Windows."
Parks and People created an interesting addition to this year's Mart: a flower carpet a la the one seen in Bruges in Belgium. It was located on the south side of the Monument and the flowers of the carpet were sold Saturday afternoon.
The FlowerMart Shoppe made a return appearance this year.
An extravanganza of ENTERTAINMENT
Entertainment Chairman Gene Vincentt and Co-chair Jo Suman arranged quite a lineup for the two stages this year, a mix of returning favorites and great new acts. The Mrs. Clarisse Mechanic Stage staedy open through 7PM this year for the first time. A new feature this year was decorating of the William Donald Schaefer Stage by the Becker Group, relocated in Mt. Vernon from Canton.
The Children's Camp took place in the West Park on Saturday, May 4, from noon - 5PM. Children had the opportunity to take origami lessons, listen to Urban Pirates StoryTime, create a Mother's Day teapot card or gift, watch a puppet show performed by the Lyric Opera Baltimore and watch a karate demonstration. Two face-painters and a stilt-walker also made their contributions to the merriment.
Do we have contests!!
FlowerMart produces several contests, most for FlowerMart's visitors. Two FlowerMart contests have been offered to middle-school students in the Baltimore metropolitan area. Their creations were evaluated before the Mart and the prizes were awarded during the opening ceremony at noon on Friday, May 3. Taryn Williams of the Walters Art Museum chairs the Hilda Mae Snoops Art Contest, which is sponsored by 1st Mariner Bank. Purcell Communications sponsored the brand new Literary Essay Contest.
The public was invited to participate in any or all of our four contests that award great prizes and lovely ribbons.

Federal PoliticsPosted Thursday, January 15, 2009, at 2:47 PM
On a scale of one to 10 how much do you trust federal political figures to help the nation out of its econonic woes and help America regain international prestige?
Comments Showing most recent comments first [Show in chronological order instead] I had every intention of voting for allen keyes early on. That doesn't matter to most I am still a racsist. -- Posted by greasemonkey on Mon, Jan 19, 2009, at 5:50 PM
Our government needs to be reminded (STRONGLY) that they are our employees, elected to serve us instead of robbing us blind. There are so many now who are continuously re-elected that they have forgotten this. The only time that the common man matters to them is when they require our vote to get re-elected to their cushy jobs and fantastic health plans while we make do or do without. If I had one wish that would be fulfilled, they would be all sent to an alternate universe where they had to live as most of us do. And furthermore TV is not on this week at our house. We will be listening to conservative radio, as we are fed up with 24/7 of the coronation proceedings. This is not a racist rant. Just an observation that so many other good black politicians were much more qualified. Michael Steele is one example. Their are many others. -- Posted by cherokee2 on Mon, Jan 19, 2009, at 4:53 PM
I agree . . . the current and soon to be governments are both a joke. The Democrats are already bickering among themselves to see who is top dog and that leaves Obama with no chance and the Republicans are sitting and waiting for their chance to add to the rumble. Anyone who believes that Obama will bring real change are only fooling themselves and especially if they believe that the Democrats or Republicans are better than the other because they are only out for their own good until election time. Unfortunately too many people were voting just to make a little history instead of voting for REAL change. Oh well, Americans will get what they deserve and then complain about it later. At least I feel like I didn't waste my vote on status quo politics. -- Posted by jaxspike on Fri, Jan 16, 2009, at 11:13 AM
I would have to say 2-3, if I were being optimistic. I have yet to hear any ideas coming from Washington that would do anything to help our current situation. It is also clear from their track record that they can only mismanage any money they have in their control, for the most part. I for one see the govt only looking out for the interest of the largest corporations, while telling us they are looking out for the working class. These bailouts coupled with an ever closer socialist govt (starting mainly with Pres. Bush) is just not the answer we need. -- Posted by greasemonkey on Thu, Jan 15, 2009, at 3:19 PM

Wood County Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn says one of his deputies was injured in a crash at the intersection of Huffman Road and state Route 281 earlier this week.
Ohio State Highway Patrol Lt. Jerrod Savidge says Deputy Josh Augsburger ran a stop sign at the intersection and struck another vehicle Wednesday night. The sheriff says he sustained lacerations and other injuries in the crash, which caused his vehicle to flip.
Augsburger was transported to a hospital by emergency helicopter, but his injuries were not life-threatening.
The other driver, an 18-year-old Defiance woman, sustained minor injuries.
The accident is currently under investigation. Savidge says the deputy will be charged.

TechCrunch reports based on a WebmasterWorld thread that Google is testing on a limited basis, giving searchers the ability to control the size of the search snippets. A snippet is the small description seen under the blue links in the search results.
In this test, users can select to not show the snippets by clicking on a little "S" at the top left corner of the page. Or to show a normal snippet by clicking on "M" or to show a long description by clicking on "L." TechCrunch has a screen capture of how Google is testing this new feature out.
