Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?
A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.

Title: Propagation of Aesculus parvifolia from Rochester MI
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:Aesculus parvifolia. I purchased one plant in spring 2010---it's about 3 ft tall. How might I propagate from this one plant, or should I buy another?
As you can see from this USDA Plant Profiles map, Aesculus parviflora (Bottlebrush buckeye) doesn't grow natively in Michigan at all, but rather in 3 southeastern states, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Washington DC. You say you purchased this plant, did you purchase it locally? We realize that many people assume that if a plant is purchased locally it will grow locally, but this is not always the case. From this article from Floridata, you can get more information, including the fact that it is hardy from USDA Hardiness Zones 4 to 8. Since Oakland County appears to be Zone 5b, it could certainly survive there. However, from this University of Connecticut page on the Bottlebrush buckeye, note this comment: "in the northeastern United States, fruit set is rare due to an insufficiently long growing season."
Warning: Seeds and foliage of Aesculus species are poisonous to humans if eaten.
If you follow the plant link above, you can read our webpage on this plant. From the section on Distribution on that page:
"Native Distribution: C. GA to AL & SC
Native Habitat: Rich, mesic woods; moist ravines"
We learned from this webpage that propagation of this plant is not easy under the best circumstances:
"Description: Seeds should be planted as soon as possible after they are collected and never allowed to dry out. Softwood cuttings under mist root in fair percentages. The commercial method of propagating bottlebrush buckeye is root cuttings.
Seed Collection: Seeds dry and shrivel quickly.
Seed Treatment: Minimal cool stratification (30 days) seems beneficial."
Your original question was whether to propagate this plant or buy another. As it appears that propagation could be difficult for you, and you feel that the plant will do well in your garden, purchasing another might be a better choice.
The first three pictures below were taken in Durham NC and Philadelphia PA. The last one was taken in Cass County, TX, which is in northeast Texas and is a wooded area with acidic soil.

"Great place to hang out and enjoy the view. Close to many vineyards. Cottage was well stocked and clean. Would stay there again."Guest: wayne j Date of Stay: September 2014 Review Submitted: October 9, 2014View listing
"We stayed here in August of 2014 when the weather was 95+ most days. Thank goodness for the onsite pool, the within-walking distance lake, and the AC in the house. Speaking of the house, it was just lovely! Good furnishings, plenty of space for our multi-family of 11, and a GREAT deck and pool that has a view of the lake. Oh, and there is plenty of parking, enough for our boat trailer too. The only downside was a lack of decent kitchen utensils, and poor quality maid service before we arrived."Guest: Large family Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 30, 2014View listing
"We loved this rental. Clean, clean, clean. Up to date, beautifully decorated & well supplied with everything needed for staying 2 days or 2 weeks! Location is perfect. Steps from the public beach. Short car or bike ride to town & wineries. Larger beach towels would have been nice though-Needed 2 towels to be able to lay out- but beach chairs were a plus. Loved mornings on the deck. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you!"Guest: lms236 Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: July 2, 2014View listing
"We recently spent the weekend at the Aerie on Lake Chelan. The view from the house is nothing short of spectacular, with the lake right in front of you. The scenery constantly changes as the sun moves across the mountains. The house itself is quite nice and perfect for 2 couples who want private room/bathroom accommodations. We didn't do much cooking, but the kitchen is well equipped. The hot tub was great. The landlord was very responsive and accommodating. My only caution is that if you have mobility issues, the three sets of stairs to the house probably aren't for you. Otherwise...a wonderful place/"Guest: Hollie Date of Stay: November 2014 Review Submitted: November 17, 2014View listing

The Story of Astronomy
From the ancient origins of astronomy to the Copernican revolution, and from Galileo to Hawking's research into black holes, The Story of Astronomy charts the discoveries made by some of the greatest minds in human history, and their attempts to unveil the secrets of the stars.
Written in an accessible and entertaining style, The Story of Astronomy demystifies some of the biggest breakthroughs in the history of science, as well as explaining why we have 60 minutes in an hour, how the Romans bodged the invention of the leap year and when people really discovered the Earth wasn't flat (a thousand years before Columbus. In the most straightforward and compelling of ways Peter Aughton demonstrates the beauty and wonder of what Newton, Einstein, Hubble and Hawking really achieved.

State employees will now have to travel to Sioux Falls and other eastern cities for the most affordable specialty services.
Changes to state benefits took effect Tuesday that put more of the burden on the insured and relieve pressure on the state.
Deductibles have increased by $250 in two of the state's three insurance plans. Out-of-pocket payments increased for all plans.
State officials took bids from health providers to give more affordable care for cardiac and other needs. For non-priority providers, people will be charged up to an additional $2,075.
The governor's administration has become more involved with updates to the state benefits in recent years.
Eric Ollila is the executive director of the South Dakota Employees Organization. He says employees should have been consulted in the process.

Recipe: Pasta-Stuffed Peppers
Capers, olives and anchovies are the Three Musketeers of Southern Italian cooking.
Serves 6
Capers, olives and anchovies are the Three Musketeers of Southern Italian cooking. Here they are mixed with tomatoes and pasta to stuff sweet bell peppers before roasting. If the peppers are very large or if you want to make these part of an antipasto and want smaller portions, cut the peppers in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and stuff each half for smaller individual servings.
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 large ripe tomatoes, chopped
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 (2-oz.) can anchovy fillets, drained and chopped
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained
¼ cup chopped pitted imported black olives
Freshly ground pepper
6 large red or yellow bell peppers
4 oz. ditalini, tubetti, or other small pasta
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Oil a baking dish just large enough to hold the peppers upright, and bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
2. In a large skillet, cook the garlic in the oil over medium heat for one minute until softened. Stir in the tomatoes and oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated, about five minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the anchovies, capers, olives, and salt and pepper to taste.
3. Meanwhile, cut the tops off the peppers and set them aside. With a small sharp knife, remove and discard the seeds and the white membranes from the insides.
4. Add the pasta to the boiling water, stir and cook, stirring frequently, until al dente. Drain well, then stir the pasta into the tomato sauce.
5. Fill each pepper about three-quarters full with the pasta mixture. Place the tops on them and arrange them in the baking dish. Pour 1 cup water around them.
6. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the peppers are tender when pierced with a fork. Serve warm.

Yankton's Iverson Passes 1,000 Career Points
by Zach Borg, Weekend Sports Anchor
March 16, 2013 7:12 PM
LAS VEGAS, Nev.
-- Yankton's Colton Iverson reached a career milestone last night in the Mountain West Tournament against UNLV.
Iverson scored 24 points, topping the 1,000 career point plateau. He's scored 484 points in his lone season at Colorado State after scoring just 517 in three years at Minnesota.
Colton also had 16 rebounds last night, but his Rams lost to UNLV 75-65 in the MWC Tournament Semifinals. They are, however, a near certainty to get a bid to the NCAA Tournament tomorrow night. Iverson was named 1st Team All-MWC, and the Rams finished the season 25-8 overall.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -- Darwin Barney hit an RBI triple off Jered Weaver that broke a scoreless tie in the sixth inning and the Chicago Cubs beat the Los Angeles Angels 8-1 Sunday. Weaver, expected to start on opening day against Kansas City, left after the sixth. Jeff Baker added a three-run homer off Angels reliever Jason Isringhausen in the eighth. Cubs left-hander Chris Rusin worked 5 1-3 scoreless innings. He allowed two hits, walked none and struck out three against an Angels lineup that featured regulars Kendrys Morales, Mark Trumbo, Maicer Izturis, Alberto Callaspo and Bobby Abreu. Cubs right-hander Matt Garza worked four scoreless innings in a minor league game, giving up two hits and striking out six.

Living a healthy lifestyle can help reduce your risk of a stroke. Eating the right foods can help prevent high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes, all of which increase a person's risk for a stroke.
Here are some examples of foods that can help trim your chances of suffering a stroke.
Vegetables including broccoli, lettuce and spinach.
Citrus foods such as oranges, grapefruit and lemons.
Foods high in soluble fiber, such as oatmeal, bananas and apples.
Foods that contain insoluble fiber such as broccoli, green beans and whole grains.
Foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids, including fish, flaxseed and canola oil.
Olive oil can help reduce your cholesterol.
Foods that contain plant sterols can help lower your cholesterol. Orange juice is one item that may contain plant sterols.
Opt for low-fat food items instead of their more fattening options, such as skim milk, low-fat cheese and poultry.

On Saturday, a Florida jury found George Zimmerman not guilty on all counts for the shooting and killing of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, in February of last year. In addition to second-degree murder, Zimmerman was also acquitted of the lesser charge of manslaughter. Per the New York Times:
Mr. Zimmerman said he shot Mr. Martin on Feb. 26, 2012, in self-defense after the teenager knocked him to the ground, punched him and slammed his head repeatedly against the sidewalk. In finding him not guilty of murder or manslaughter, the jury agreed that Mr. Zimmerman could have been justified in shooting Mr. Martin because he feared great bodily harm or death. [New York Times]
Florida's laws stipulates that prosecutors had to prove beyond "a reasonable doubt" that Zimmerman did not act in self defense. With a lack of eyewitnesses and evidence beyond Zimmerman's word, the prosecution failed to meet that high bar.

Gerhards Appliances - Gerhard's Appliances Glenside, PA does not back up what they sell

Bought a Whirlpool dishwasher in fall of '06 (among other appliances during my home renovation) and the motor has gone bad 3 times in just over 3 years.Gerhards will not go to bat for us with Whirlpool, instead telling us to contact them ourselves.
So I called Whirlpool and after a lengthy discussion they gave me $50 off the $160 part.
It arrived today so I called the store to have it installed and the first time they can do it is 5 days from now.Needless to say, I am not happy and will think long and hard about dealing with Gerhard's or Whirlpool again.c2e5c69 review #171549
PISSED OFF CUSTOMER Jun 27, 2011

AT THIS POINT MY BLOOD WAS BOILING AND I SIMPLY STATED I DIDNT WANT A DAMAGED REFRIDGE IN MY NEW KITCHEN THE NASTY REP OFFERED ME DELIVERY OF A NEW ONE THE FOLLOWING DAY. i ALSO HAVE SPOKE WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE DURING THE PROCESS AN EACH OF THEM BECOMING MORE NASTY AND LYING TO COVER THEIR TRACKS. sTEER CLEAR OF THE CROOKS.0 0 Reply

Worst store I have ever visited . . I have never wrote a review online, but because of the customer service I have received, or I should say lack of, I am now. Rudest employee I have ever came across on 3/15/2011, an older man with glasses, absolutley horrible. I am actually going back in the store to take a picture of him and post online. They have already lost 7 customers because of the reviews I have posted on facebook. Discusted with them.0 0 Reply

We purchased a matched pair washer and dryer when our previous washer died. Gerhards came to our house on 10/13/2010 to install them. They removed our old washer and dryer (our old dryer still worked fine, we just wanted a matched pair) and installed the new ones. They turned them on and then left. Turns out our dryer wasn't getting any heat. Called the next day, Gerhard's technician said that our power cord and power outlet for the dryer was broken. Both were fine BEFORE they installed the new dryer. We had to pay an electrician to replace our outlet and power cord. He then reinstalled the dryer and it finally worked. I've been calling Gerhard's because I feel they should pay the $288 electrician bill as they caused the damage. I keep getting passed around on the phone, always ending up in Rich Gerhard's voicemail. He has not called back. We called the credit card company and put a hold on the payment until this is resolved. However, Gerhard's has yet to call us back and everytime we call them Rich Gerhard is always "out" or "not at his desk". We will follow up with the Better Business Bureau as well as post our experience here, Angie's List, and every possible internet forum available.0 0 Reply

The worst experience in a retail store ever! I purchased a floor model grill that was to be delivered, already assembled on a Saturday for a house warming party on Sunday. Grill was never delivered and no one could explain the mix up. They delivered the following Monday and i noticed that the floor model was missing several screws and bolts to the point that the grill was barely staying together. I of course called them and they "might" be able to come the next day with screws to fix. I figured what the ***, let's see if the thing even works and of course it didn't. Spoke with Rich Gerhard after several attempts to get the issue resolved with other staff. He tells me he will call me back "in a few" to let me know the next step and never bothered to call me back. This place lacks the basics when it comes to customer service and would never recommend them to anyone looking to purchase any appliance. Funny thing is that this non assembled floor model grill was sitting in the North East showroom with no one bothering to put the *** thing together. Who does that?0 0 Reply

Poor follow up service after purchase of a TV.. Delivery men hooked it up wrong and when I called and visied the store, they could not figure out what wa wrong and insinuated I didn't know what kind of set I had, that the delivery men NEVER hooked up things wrong. One staff member even hung up on me.0 0 Reply

I ordered a dishwasher on a Saturday that I scheduled to pick up myself at the Glenside store on Monday. I was assured it would be there. I called on Monday evening and the dishwasher was amazingly on back order and they wouldn't have it for over a week. How could they sell me a dishwasher that was on back order. I could have bought a different model or went somwehere else. When I spoke with Charles Gerhard he did not care and told me oh well you'll have to get it next week. I have been a loyal customer since 1998. Not anymore.0 0 Reply

Horrible experience with indifferent, or even argumentative sales people in Ardmore. Messed up order multiple times. Didn't tell me fridge was back ordered when i bought it. Only found out when other appliances were delivered. On next delivery dishwasher had big dent in it. They then had the nerve to ask me to sit around waiting on my third 3-4 hour delivery window. No thanks. Avoid these clowns.0 0 Reply

Jerold Kessel 311.
(photo credit:Courtesy)
Jerrold (Yoram) Kessel, who died on Thursday after a long battle with cancer,
was one of Israel's leading English-language journalists, with a career that
spanned over four decades in radio, print and television, including stints as
Jerusalem correspondent for the London Jewish Chronicle, news editor at The
Jerusalem Post, Israel reporter for CNN and sports columnist for
Ha'aretz.He was 65.We first met at the Hebrew University in the
1960s, as part of a group of young ex-South African immigrants studying subjects
like literature, history, politics, economics and philosophy.Never the
conformist, Jerrold was always full of original ideas and grandiose schemes,
traits that never left him. Together we started a radical, but short-lived,
student magazine called Vent. When we went down to Eilat for a short holiday,
Jerrold concocted a patchwork tent made up of colorful sheets and quilts sewn
together by his wife, Lorraine, which a fresh Red Sea breeze easily got the
better of, forcing us to scamper for more mundane accommodation.An avid
reader, Jerrold's passions were for history, literature, Israeli politics and
sport.Not only was he a mine of sporting information, he was also a fine
player of a wide variety of games, with exceptional hand-eye coordination.
Overweight and not obviously athletic, his agility on a squash court or behind
the stumps on a cricket field was of a totally unexpected order. Woe betide the
opponent who underestimated him.As a boy, he was always against South
African teams because of apartheid. At his all-white school this would often
leave him in a taunted minority of one. But even then he was too strong-willed
to be deflected.In the mid-1960s, Jerrold was instrumental in restarting
cricket in Israel. Games were played on matting wickets often in desert
conditions. Play in Beersheba was once stopped as a caravan of camels went
by.Jerrold became captain of the Israel cricket team for its first foray
into World Cup associate member play in 1979. In one of the games the USA
wicketkeeper was guilty of blatant cheating.It would have been
"cricket," the stiff upper lip code of gentlemanly conduct by which the game is
played, to overlook this. Jerrold, motivated by a higher and very personal moral
compass, refused to let the matter rest.Indeed, for Jerrold, more than
results, sport was about how you conducted yourself and how you played the
game.This led to his weekly "On the Couch" column in Ha'aretz that
looked at the wider social significance of sport and often suggested highly
inventive ways to make games better.Based on a TV documentary he made
about a soccer club in the Arab town of Sachnin, which played in the national
league and one year actually won the state cup, Jerrold, with his long-time
collaborator Pierre Klochendler, wrote the book Goals for Galilee, a brilliant
use of sport to analyze the national and cultural predicament of Israel's
minority Arab population.On the wider Israel-Palestinian issue, he was a
unilateralist, fervently believing that Israel must disengage from the West Bank
as soon as possible, with or without an agreement, or face erosion of its moral
authority and dissipation of the Zionist dream.His working life as a
journalist began as a news reader and editor at Israel Radio. One of his more
heroic efforts was coming in at four o'clock in the morning of August 21, 1968,
to find that the Soviet Union had invaded Czechoslovakia and the electricity in
the building was down. Somehow, working by candlelight, he managed to put out
the seven o'clock news.From the radio he moved on to the Jewish
Chronicle, and then to The Jerusalem Post, where he edited the sports section
with the late Philip (Figgy) Gillon and served a senior news editor. In 1990,
when a large group of journalists left the paper on an issue of editorial
independence, he was offered the editorship, but declined.After leaving
the Post, he found his métier at CNN, where he made an international reputation
as on camera reporter covering Israel and the Middle East. At CNN he reported
the peace process with the Palestinians, prime minister Yitzhak Rabin's
assassination and the unraveling of the process leading to the second intifada.
During the intifada, Jerrold took flak at times for CNN's alleged anti-Israel
bias.He was concerned more by what he saw as the superficiality of
television news, and approached CNN bosses with a plethora of ideas for more
indepth coverage.In 2007, Jerrold covered the Rugby World Cup in France,
now rooting for the rainbownation South African Springboks, who won the
tournament.But his abiding memory was not of who won or lost but of the
purity of the French passion for the game.After he learned of his
illness, he went on working and playing sport, with characteristic
determination, enthusiasm and optimism. Weeks before he died, he was still
working on a play featuring his family's earthy black maid and Nelson

SBA signs strategic alliances with Lawson and Miles colleges

The U.S. Small Business Administration today signed strategic alliance memorandums with two Birmingham-area historically black colleges and universities, the agency's Alabama District Office announced.
The memorandums, which go into effect today and have two-year terms, allow SBA to share resources with Miles College and Lawson State Community College in order to promote entrepreneurial efforts by students and alumni, as well as to assist the community outreach efforts of the colleges. They will also help make information on SBA programs and services more readily available.
"A critical goal of the SBA is to connect with organizations and institutions that share a common purpose of helping people get into business, grow and succeed," said SBA Regional Administrator Cassius Butts.
Butts said about 65 to 70 percent of the nation's historically black colleges and universities are located in the SBA's region IV, which includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Therefore, SBA is undertaking an initiative to reach out and team with HBCUs throughout the region.
Butts said the signing ceremony this week with Miles and Lawson is a great beginning as SBA seeks to forge similar alliances with Alabama's other HBCUs.

The New Way to Pack
1. Get fleet-footed
Unless wingtips are essential for a business meeting (see tip 4), wear a pair of rubber-sole leather loafers to the airport. You can slip them on and off quickly at security, and they'll serve you well later—whether you're on an all-day sightseeing trek or gussying up for dinner in the evening.

21 & Over
Features:Price: $7.50-10.50
A comedy written by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore of The Hangover, about a straight-A, always-do-well medical student who decides to blow it off for just one night, his 21st birthday, and almost winds up blowing his med school chances. Sadly, the movie doesn't sound like it will follow in the footsteps of its writers' much-loved previous film; critical reception has been mostly poor, calling the movie too predictable, too brash, and unfunny.

In addition to the sense of perseverance and accomplishment that comes with finishing a 5K, the organizers of the Bacon Chase have added another incentive: bacon. During their two races?the 5K Piggy Pilgrimage, which is a traditional 5K, and the 0.05K Blitz to Bacon, which is a 164-foot sprint?runners can munch on unlimited bacon bits before feasting on unlimited amounts of bacon at the finish line. Runners 21 and older can wash down the savory strips of bacon with a bloody mary, and all runners get a Bacon Chase T-shirt and a signature bacon-scented bib. The festival opens at 8 a.m. and features many bacon-themed activities, plus music.
The festive day serves a greater purpose, too. Attendees will be able to register to become a St. Jude Hero, raise money for St. Jude Children?s Research Hospital, or both.
Roaring ATVs charge up Southwest Desert sand dunes in a storm of golden particles. Miles away, intrepid explorers rappel down the sheer cliffs of the Valley of Fire. Elsewhere, kayakers drift across the placid surface of Lake Mead in the sunset, and passengers inside a helicopter witness the majesty of the Grand Canyon from the breathtaking angle normally reserved for sightseeing birds. These seemingly disparate adventures have one thing in common: the people who imagined them. Each trek was dreamed up by the founders and guides of Awesome Adventures, who see the landscape of Nevada and Utah not as harsh and wild, but as a source of endless entertainment and education. The enthusiastic staffers—who specialize in recreations ranging from rock climbing to whitewater rafting—encourage visitors and locals alike to step outside the bounds of the city and explore exciting new vistas.
Approximately $200 million dollars have been pumped into the Tropicana Las Vegas? recent transformation, converting The Strip resort into a South Beach?inspired hot spot. Guests can try their luck in the 50,000-square-foot casino, outfitted with all the usual suspects?craps, blackjack, roulette, slots, and more?plus a high-limit area where big spenders place their bets amid custom Latin artwork and high-definition TVs. Beyond the casino, three distinct restaurants match every taste and budget, from the old-world Italian fare at Bacio to fresh seafood and top-cut steaks at Biscayne. At night, guests can rest their heads in luxurious, penthouse-style Sky Villa suites and single-bedroom Pool Villa bungalows.
While nightlife and gambling are the draw of Vegas, Tropicana hosts plenty of daytime carousing as well. Named the best Las Vegas pool by KLAS-TV in July 2010, the two-acre Tropicana swimming pool sparkles in the sunlight with crisp South Beach-esque furnishings, waterfalls, and private cabanas. Should it get too hot to doggie paddle, guests can trade in their swimsuit for a terry-cloth robe and head to the 10,000 square-foot Glow, a Mandara Spa, for a bamboo massage, lime and ginger salt glow, or a luck-restoring oxygen facial. Starting in May 2014, patrons can also grab seats for one of seven-weekly shows of the hit musical Mamma Mia!.
For an additional fee, special add-ons are also offered to allow for an elegant experience. Lodging includes The Paradise Suite, which allows customers to choose their perfect sleep setting, and The Club Spa Suite, a high-class couples suite. In addition to wedding floral arrangements, wedding photos can be taken by the pool, courtyard or chapel.
Growing up in a small town, Tanya Carrier discovered a talent?and more importantly, a passion?for running at the age of 13. Running helped give her confidence and identity in high school. It helped see her through college, as the only member of her extended family to attend. It taught her discipline, which guided her in qualifying for the Boston Marathon, earning a master's degree in special education, and, ultimately, founding Downtown Runners. As she told Joe Schoenmann of the Las Vegas Sun, she created the organization to share her passion with others and to provide an outlet for people to exercise together.
Tanya knows that Las Vegas already has its fair share of 5Ks, so she planned her inaugural two for the off seasons. Her first race, the Sprinkler Sprint 5K, offsets summer's heat with watery obstacles, such as squirt guns, water cannons, and Slip 'n Slides. Her second 5K takes its inspiration from strip poker, encouraging runners to bundle up against the winter chill with clothes they'd like to donate to charity, losing a layer at predetermined stops along the route. For each item of clothing lost, they get a playing card to use in a poker hand at the end of the race. Winning hands can be used to claim prizes or bluff other racers into believing they haven't even started running yet.
Generally, adulthood forces people to give up childish pleasures, robbing them of the joy associated with playing in puddles, unearthing hidden treasure, and being silly in public. Sierra Adventure Sports wants grownups to regress, if only for a day. In service of that goal, the company organizes a variety of novel races that range from city scavenger hunts for the casual adventurer to creative triathlon courses for the ambitious athlete.
The Mad Mud Run, for instance, challenges participants to sprint and frolic through a dirty and deliciously fun outdoor obstacle course littered with manmade obstructions such as cargo nets, hills of hay bales, monkey bars, and slimy mud pits. Extreme Heat Adventure Races combine equal parts triathlon and scavenger hunt to create a 10?12K journey filled with running, river rafting, and mystery challenges that could pit teams against anything from blindfolded puzzles to wall climbs. Most Sierra Adventure Sports events encourage racers to compete in costumes of all types save for gremlins, which multiply in water and unfairly dominate the timed results.
Halloween is a time for the zombies, ghouls, and werewolves of the world to shed their everyday human disguises and proudly walk hand in hand with their living counterparts. The Las Vegas Halloween Weekend Urban Obstacle Run honors this ghastly evening with a slew of spine-tingling activities. The 5K obstacle course is the main attraction, pitting participants against a variety of eerie physical challenges, including abandoned cars, corn fields, and barricades, as a cast of zombies tries to thwart their every move. As a reward for surviving the race without becoming infected, the after-party rolls out live music, food, drinks, prizes, and the occasional Elvis sighting. Those who arrive in Halloween attire are invited to compete in a costume contest, and at 8:30 p.m., Michael Jackson's "Thriller" will fill the air as visitors line up to break the world record for the most people zombie dancing, which is currently held at 14,000.

How email stole your novel
Ruthanne Reid, "thisreidwrites" via flickr
If Cue's survey is correct, email is stealing the novel that is lying inside of everybody just waiting to get out. Sort of.
Cue, (a website and app at cueup.com that, according to Wikipedia, "pulls information from online accounts to present an overview of a user's day") found that people received, on average, 5,579 emails in 2012. This compares to people sending, on average, a mere 869 emails.
But where is the novel?
According to Cue, people wrote an average of 41,368 words in those 869 emails.
Atlantic magazine explains the novel connections: "To put those 41,638 discrete pieces of communication in perspective, that word count, in the aggregate, is roughly equivalent to a novel that is 166 pages in length. (The industry standard for page length is 250 words per page.) Which makes the average Cue user's email output slightly greater than 'The Old Man and the Sea' (127 pages long), slightly less than 'The Great Gatsby' (182 pages), and just about equal to 'The Turn of the Screw' (165 pages)."
So, theoretically, if people would have spent their time writing that novel hidden inside them instead of emailing, they just may have finished the next New York Times bestseller. Or something like "Fifty Shades of Grey."
But the opportunity cost doesn't stop there. Another Atlantic article explains how a study by the McKinsey Global Institute shows people spend 13 hours a week, or 28 percent of their time in the office on email.
The Getting Things Done blog, gtdtimes.com, looked at this also with novels in mind "What's more surprising is that we received more than six times as much email as we sent. Even if you deleted some of that email without needing to read it, you probably read several novel's worth of email last year."
An older survey by Harris Interactive and featured on ABC News found that the average number of emails workers could handle effectively each day was about 50.
Todd Wasserman on Mashable says McKinsey Global Institute and International Data Corp. found that email is the second-most time-consuming activity for workers and "that time spent on email can be cut by 25 percent -30 percent by introducing social networking communications into a business."
Just for the record, if you took "The Turn of the Screw" and broke it down to 140-character messages on social media service Twitter.com, it would take 1,632 tweets to send out the book.
Or, you could write your own novel.

The Changing Face of Elder Care Means A Call for More Services, Notes Estate Planning Attorney
Palo Alto, CA (Law Firm Newswire) February 13, 2013 – An elder care study shows a growing demand for elder care services and a growing interest in securing their future care.
The study analyzed the elder care market in the U.S., with historical data from 2001, 2006, and 2011, and forecasts for 2016 and 2021.
Elder care in a skilled nursing facility made up the largest percentage of elder care service revenue, some 43 percent, in 2011. But elder care advocates predict that community-based and in-home services, such as home health care and assisted living will be the faster growing market in the coming decade.
The trend toward more at-home and community care, instead of nursing facility care, may be in large part due to an ongoing push by state and federal agencies to shift patients away from the more costly care found in nursing homes and towards the more cost effective, community-based services. The shift is supported in no small part by the growing trend of elders wishing to stay in their own homes as long as possible.
The aging baby boomer generation (and an extended life expectancy for that generation) means revenues for home health care, elder care social services, assisted living, and skilled nursing are expected to skyrocket through 2015, to an estimated $319.5 billion.
"The elder care services market will also be restrained by overburdened state and federal budgets, as they attempt to curb Medicaid and Medicare spending," cautioned Michael Gilfix, Palo Alto estate planning attorney, "primarily by limiting patient reimbursement and by pushing less expensive care options on patients."
Meanwhile, analysts say Medicaid continues to be the frontrunner in the elder care industry for payments, in spite of state and federal efforts to curb spending. Medicare is expected to see the fastest growth annually, though changes in upcoming legislative policy and fluctuations in reimbursement rates may change that. Patients may see an increase in out-of-pocket expenses for care, and an increase in private insurance coverage, as more people purchase long-term care insurance.

Sizing up opportunity: Arab women propel haute couture
They're rarely spotted on front rows of fashion shows and favour discretion when placing orders, yet women from the Middle East have become the world's biggest buyers of high fashion.

The trend may surprise given that many Arab women, particularly in the Gulf region, are traditionally kept under wraps.
But their social calendar, which usually consists of 15-20 weddings a year and private parties every month, creates much bigger demand for couture than the occasional charity ball and high society party in Europe and in North America.
And wearing the same dress twice is not an option.
Traditional buyers of exclusive designer clothes tend to include members of rich industrial or royal families and expatriates.
The biggest buyers of haute couture today centre around the Gulf — Saudis, Kuwaitis, Qataris and nationals of the UAE who do not hesitate to spend 50,000 euros on a low-cleavage lame for an event where no men will be present.
"All the royal families of the Middle East are our customers," Catherine Riviere, head of haute couture at Christian Dior, told Reuters at the brand's show at Paris Fashion Week which ends on Wednesday.
Middle Eastern customers have also recently shown growing support for Lebanese designers such as Elie Saab and Zuhair Murad.
Fashion executives say the Middle East is likely to remain the top couture client for the foreseeable future if the economic environment deteriorates in Europe and North America.
The luxury goods industry has not yet been hit by the global slowdown but many analysts fear it will not come out of the downturn unscathed, particularly if China's growth starts to slow down.
"Women from the Middle East are our top buyers and they are likely to remain so," said Jeffry Aronsson, who became chief executive of Emanuel Ungaro three months ago, having run Donna Karan, Oscar de la Renta and Marc Jacobs in the past.
Reem, the daughter of a major construction tycoon in the Middle East, spends much of her time flitting between Paris, London, Dubai and Beirut and is a regular buyer of couture. She has also started to design some of her own jewellery.
"I want to be different from others," she said in an interview at her Paris flat in the leafy 16th arrondissement, asking to be identified only by her first name.
"What I want is unique pieces, extravagant and chic. I do not want to pay 5,000 or 6,000 euros for a dress, as it happened to me with a Pucci outfit recently, and see it on somebody else the same evening."
Generally at weddings in Gulf countries, men and women are split into two separate groups, attendees say. Thousands of women gather together in one big ball room — all wearing haute couture — and some are not afraid to wear provocative and revealing outfits.
"Some women go for deep cleavage or even transparent fabrics," said Reem, who regularly attends such weddings and buys between 30-40 designer dresses a year. At a royal wedding, the dress code calls for more restraint in terms of style, neckline and hemline.
Valued at 700 million euros ($930 million), designer clothing is by far the biggest segment of the luxury goods industry representing 42 percent of overall luxury goods sales in the UAE, the biggest buyer among Gulf states, with women's designer dresses and skirts leading the way, Euromonitor International said in a report published in June.
"For us, with China, the Middle East is the market that is growing the fastest," Hermes Chief Executive Patrick Thomas told Reuters at Paris Fashion Week. "These markets for a long time preferred a more ostentatious type of luxury and now want…
