West Virginia Scholarships
Looking to fund your college education with no obligations to return any money? If so, then scholarships and grants may just be the thing for you. Students looking forward to attending a college in West Virginia should stay on the lookout for scholarship opportunities as early as their high school senior year because most scholarships come with early deadlines.
Almost all federal scholarships require students to fill out the FAFSA, which helps scholarship administrators determine a student's financial need. The amount of federal scholarships differs from partial fees and reasonable expenses to the whole of tuition fee. It is also possible that a scholarship may be annually renewable.
Eligibility requirements for West Virginia scholarships vary from program to program since scholarships have different merit requirements. You may qualify by either excelling academically, athletically or by demonstrating financial need. Not only does the government (both federal and state) offer scholarships, but also several corporate and philanthropic organizations give out scholarships to help students along.
Below are some scholarships available to college freshmen in West Virginia:
- Greater Kanawha Valley Foundation Scholarships. Full time students who are residents of West Virginia and have demonstrated a GPA of no less than 2.5 may apply for this scholarship. Candidates should fulfill the other eligibility requirements necessary for this award.
- West Virginia PROMISE Scholarships. This is a merit-based award with an application deadline falling on March 1 each year. Since 2001, this scholarship has funded college education for high caliber high school graduates of West Virginia.
- West Virginia Health Sciences Scholarship Program. This scholarship serves as an incentive for students to enroll in healthcare programs that eventually lead them into both rural and primary healthcare sectors in the state.
- Opportunity Scholarship. This scholarship is for students of the West Virginia State University who have not received any other tuition assistance from the university and it provides $1,000 every semester for four years to successful candidates. These are just some of the options available. If you are looking for scholarships in West Virginia, then explore our website for more options.

I've always wanted these (Vandals)sandals, but my size (mens-12) was always sold out. That was encouraging because it made me think that they were popular with men with my shoe size. I received the shoes via a third party vendor. They are sized using the european scale. I tried them on and immediately noticed that they were narrow and not quite long enough. I checked the size and saw size 44 (US-11-11.5). Being familar with european sizing I know that size 45 is (US 12-12.5). I contacted the 3rd party vendor and was informed that 44 was largest size available. I still have them and may pass them along as a gift. The shoes are well made and durable. but they are narrow and sizing is more favorable to women. I'm sad but not disappointed. I would reccmmend to others and include these precautions.

Rebecca Quarm, principal of Oyster Bay High School, invited all those students with first quarter grades over 85 percent and their parents to a special recognition breakfast. Due to the anticipated size of the group this was done on two consecutive mornings - Nov. 30 and Dec. 1. Those in Grades 7-9 were asked to come on Thursday followed by those in grades 10-12 on Friday.
At the OB-EN Board of Education meeting, held Dec. 12 at Oyster Bay High School, Superintendent of Schools George J. Chesterton reported that the ranking policy will remain the same but the weighting of grades will change to reflect the more demanding curriculum of honors and advanced placement courses. In regard to the internet use policy, letters to parents and students will be revised to clearly state guidelines and expectations. Dr. Chesterton also provided updates on a number of projects...

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Treatment
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a modality used to treat patients with chronic wounds. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy works by allowing patients to breathe 100 percent oxygen at two-to-three times greater-than-normal atmospheric pressure while safely enclosed and monitored in a pressurized chamber. This increases the amount of oxygen that can be delivered to the body's tissues by the blood. This boosts blood flow to a wound site, improves the body's response to infection and supports tissue growth and healing. Wound healing problems may require 30 to 40 hyperbaric oxygen treatments.

Insulate Hampshire extends free insulation offer
Release date: 30 March 2012
The extension of the free offer has come thanks to increased financial commitment from ScottishPower, the funding partner for Insulate Hampshire. With the extension of the free offer, residents will have more time to join the scheme as it was provisionally free under a Winter Warmer promotion due to end 31March.
Now Hampshire residents have until September to insulate their homes for free, helping them to keep their homes warmer in winter, cooler in summer and save over £300 a year on their fuel bills(4).
New Forest District Council's portfolio holder for the environment, Councillor Edward Heron, said: "It is great news that this offer has been extended until September. I would encourage all householders to take advantage of this excellent opportunity to save money on fuel bills and reduce their carbon emission before the scheme ends." From 1 January 2013 however, funding for subsidised insulation and projects such as Insulate Hampshire will end. This will mean that all residents will have to pay commercial prices for insulation, normally between £150 and £500, regardless of their personal circumstances. High demand is anticipated in the forthcoming months, so residents are encouraged to contact the Insulate Hampshire team as soon as possible by calling 0800 952 0037 or going online at insulatehampshire.co.uk to apply.
*(1) To qualify, applications must be received by 30th September 2012, with installations taking place until 30 November 2012. Due to expected high demand, this is subject to availability.
*(2) Free insulation for average sized properties or smaller and, in the case of loft insulation, that currently have less than 60mm (approx 2½ inches) of material. Charges will apply for larger properties or those where other installation equipment is needed, but all prices will be made clear at the point of the free, technical survey and given a 7 day cooling off period.
*(3) This offer excludes those residents living in the Southampton and Portsmouth City Council areas.
*(4) The Energy Saving Trust (EST) estimates that householders can save over £300 per year if both cavity wall and loft insulation are installed.

Make The Most Of
Your Solo Cooking
Know your preferences
When you're cooking for yourself, whipping up a single serving three times a day can be exhausting. So making a larger quantity and saving some for later can be a good plan. This method is most effective when you know you like a certain dish and feel it will keep well in the fridge, freezer or cupboard. If you're trying a risky recipe for the first time that you may end up never wanting to eat again, cooking a single serving so that leftovers don't go to waste may be the best idea. But if it's an old staple you know you will love, cook several servings and then divide what's left into separate sealable containers for you to enjoy another time.
Preserve properly
Ensuring that you make the most of what you cook for yourself relies heavily on your ability to preserve items properly. There's nothing more disappointing than going to help yourself to leftovers when you're short on time, only to discover that your goodies are no longer any good. Each time you make more than you can eat in the immediate future, consider how long the leftovers will last. Cookies or muffins, for example, can last for a week or more when kept in an airtight container that is stored in a cool, dry place. Chicken, on the other hand, shouldn't be consumed once it has been cooked and left in the fridge for more than three or four days. And then there are simply preference no-nos such as soggy, dressing-covered lettuce. Make sure you are storing food in the appropriate manner and at a temperature that will allow it to stay edible for as long as possible. Also try to keep food that needs to be consumed soon in a visible area. Don't let last night's dinner get shoved to the back of the fridge, or you may forget about its existence. Instead, keep it where you can see it so you can constantly remind yourself it needs to get eaten or frozen ASAP.
Plan ahead
Before you tuck food away, ask yourself how long it will be good for and when you plan on eating it. If, for instance, you know you'll want chicken stir-fry for the next four dinners in a row, go ahead and whip up a large batch. If, on the other hand, you know you'll be eating out for the next few nights, cook only a single portion. Or make a large serving and freeze what you don't eat immediately. Discovering you actually need it and have to defrost a portion is far better than letting several servings go to waste. So, be smart about your cooking, and you can enjoy meals for one — waste-free — on a regular basis!

Bluestocking Wool and Gifts carries on 80-year tradition in Cainscross, Stroud
By Fontofall55 | Monday, November 05, 2012, 09:26
"I can't be entirely sure how long there has been a wool shop here," says Sunie Fletcher, speaking at the launch of her new venture, Bluestocking Wool and Gifts. "But I've been told that it's around 80 years.
Sunie Fletcher (centre) with craftsman Lawrence Kee, Elizabeth Watkins, Liza Hollinghurst and Angela Knight at the launch of Bluestocking Wool and Gifts.
"So it's really good to know that I am carrying on that tradition and that there will still be a wool shop here in Cainscross."
I can neither confirm or refute the accuracy of Sunie's information about Bluestocking 's history. All I know is that, for as long as I can remember - and I'm talking a good 30-plus years - the shop at 22 Westward Road has indeed been the place to go for those in search of a 'good yarn' .
For many years it was Olveston House; more recently, Along Came Polly.
"I learned to knit three years ago, when I joined Uley Knitting Group," says Sunie. "So I was a regular customer here.
"When its previous owner went on maternity leave she asked if I could look after the shop. Well, I jumped at the chance.
"Once baby came along, she decided to relinquish the role of shop owner to concentrate on being a full-time mum, and asked if I would be interested in taking it on."
This is quite a departure for Sunie - or Dr Sunie Fletcher, to give her her full title.
A senior manager at MTV Europe in the 1980s, in more recent years Sunie studied for, and achieved, a PhD in 'Female Aesthete Novelists of the Fin de Siècle and Beyond' at the University of Exeter, having first taken her BA and MA at the University of London.
"I'd reached this point in my life where I didn't really know what I wanted to do next," she says with amazing candour.
"I love this shop; I loved coming here. So when Lucy asked whether or not I fancied taking it on, I thought, 'Why not?' I could see that it had real potential."
Sunie says she is extremely and eternally grateful for all the help she has received in getting the shop refurbished and open in time for the launch.
"Would you believe that we shut the shop for just one day, giving us a three-day weekend in which to get all the refurbishment work done?" she laughs.
"I've had loads of really amazing help and support from my knitting friends. I couldn't have done it without them.
"I hired one craftsman - Lawrence Kee - who bravely supervised 18 women with all the sanding and painting.
"They have all been absolutely amazing - they've really rallied round to help. I cannot thank them enough.
"And would you believe, Lawrence is actually through to the finals in the Daily Star's Britain's Top Tradesman competition?" she chuckles, pointing to the newspaper's profile on Lawrence, which proudly adorns one of Bluestocking's walls.
"He deserves to win - he's absolutely fantastic at what he does. He's been such a huge, huge help."
As well as a range of yarns, including Rowan, Adriafil, Artesano, Sirdar, King Cole and Stylecraft, Sunie stocks a wealth of patterns and quality sticks, hooks and needles - indeed, she has every accessory a modern knitter or crocheter could possibly need.
And with Christmas just around the corner, those looking for something that little bit special or different, might be interested to learn of Sunie's wonderful range of greetings cards and giftwrap (from both established and up-and-coming designers), collectable Persephone books, retro and vintage-style toys, cool jewellery and handmade homeware.
Picture gallery of the Bluestocking Wool and Gifts launch party
I was particularly taken by the Ditsy Doodles range of embroidered cushions, bags and pictures on display.
Based in Daglingworth, near Cirencester, Ditsy Doodles is owned and run by mums Jenny Inglis and Christine Bass.
The duo, who have a passion for all things homemade, first started out by turning their own children's drawings and paintings into wonderful canvas creations.
Now, using a technique called freehand machine embroidery, they are in business turning other people's children's drawings into beautiful, original pieces of art.
I think they make a really beautiful and unique gift that any parent, grandparent, auntie or uncle would treasure.
Sunie is also in the process of setting up a variety of groups, get-togethers, events and tutorials at which people can learn the basics, improve or acquire techniques, and hang out with like-minded people who share a passion for creating.
And as if things couldn't get any better, visiting Bluestocking couldn't be easier.
No pay and display or trudge from a multi-storey necessary. There are short-stay spaces right in front of the shop and a free all-day carpark at the end of the block.
Opening hours are currently 9am to 5.30pm, Tuesday to Saturday, and will be extended during the pre-Christmas period.
Drop in soon – Suni can't wait to share her new shop with you.
'Cast off' those old-fashioned notions
One might be forgiven for thinking that knitting and crocheting are pastimes reserved strictly for the over 70s, but recent years have seen 'Knit and Natter' groups springing up in all manner of places.
Sunie learned to knit three years ago when she joined Uley Knitting Group.
Even pubs such as the Crown and Sceptre in Horns Road, Stroud, are starting to hold regular knitting groups, and youngsters are discovering the joy of knitting and crocheting at after-school clubs.
Carrying on local tradition
The history of the parish of Cainscross is one steeped in the woollen industry.
For centuries, most of the villagers living in the tiny parish were employed in one of two industries - they either worked the land, or worked in the local woollen cloth mills.
Indeed, records of a mill at nearby Ebley - home these days to Stroud District Council - date back to medieval times.
So it's quite heartwarming to stumble across a shop which is carrying on a local tradition.

It's the second coach of the year honor for Self. He also was honored by The Sporting News. Missouri coach Frank Haith was named coach of the year by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association and The Associated Press.
"Winning the award today, I went over there for breakfast today," Self said. "It's a cool award. It was great to win it, all that stuff. But there's a lot of coaches out there deserving of winning awards. All that is a reflection of your team playing well.
"I appreciate, but I don't put a lot of stock into thinking that I've done something others haven't. There's been a lot of coaches that coached their teams very, very well."
Only two coaches have reached the national championship game. During Sunday's Final Four press conference with Self and KU's five starters, point guard Tyshawn Taylor called his coach a "great teacher."
"His system works," Taylor said. "I think what made this team so good all year is that most of the time we bought in and we listened and we actually paid attention to what he said, wanted to come out there and play."
Taylor said he agreed with Self winning Coach of the Year.
"Congratulations, Coach, good job," Taylor said.
Self smiled and said, "Thanks. You're still going to start tomorrow. I'm still going to take your butt out if you don't make a shot."
Here's the press released from the Atlanta Tipoff Club.
New Orleans (April 1, 2012) – University of Kansas head coach Bill Self was named the 2012 Naismith Men's College Basketball Coach of the Year, the Atlanta Tipoff Club announced today. This accolade makes Kansas the only university to have three different Naismith Men's College Coach of the Year winners, as Self joins 1988 winner Larry Brown and 1997 winner Roy Williams.
Self edged out finalists Jim Boeheim (Syracuse), John Calipari (Kentucky) and Frank Haith (Missouri) to win the most prestigious national award presented annually to the top men's college basketball coach.
Self was selected by the Atlanta Tipoff Club's National Voting Academy, comprised of leading basketball journalists, coaches and administrators from around the country. The academy based its criteria on coaching performances this season. The vote was tabulated and certified by the accounting firm of Habif, Arogeti & Wynne, LLP. HA&W is the largest independent accounting firm in Georgia and one of the top 50 firms in the United States.
"Bill has done a remarkable coaching job this season and deserves all the accolades that come his way," said Eric Oberman, executive director of the Atlanta Tipoff Club. "There's always something special about adding another chapter of Kansas Basketball to the Naismith Awards family."
In his ninth season at Kansas, Self led the Jayhawks to a 31-7 record, including a perfect 16-0 at home, leading them to a record eighth straight regular season Big 12 Title and earning his second consecutive Big 12 Coach of the Year award. He owns a 269-52 record at the school and a 476-157 overall career record, including a national championship with the Jayhawks in 2008.
"This is a terrific honor. When you think of postseason awards, anything that has (James) Nasmith's name in front of it is a huge award and certainly I'm very proud of this," Self said. "It is a reflection of how our team performed all year long. There are so many good coaches out there to choose from but I am honored they picked me."
Entering the 2012 NCAA Men's Division I tournament as a No. 2 seed in the Midwest region, the Jayhawks defeated No. 1 seed North Carolina and No. 2 seed Ohio State to reach their second NCAA Championship game in four years.
Last year, San Diego State head coach Steve Fisher claimed the Naismith Men's Coach of the Year award, the first ever for the Mountain West Conference. For more information, visit www.naismithawards.com.

Valentine's Day is fast-approaching and if you're in a relationship, well done you. But do single people actually care about V-Day? Laurence Mozafari reveals the tell-tale signs that you might care more than you think...
1. Having an Anti-Valentine's Day Day
Because nothing says "over it" better than preserving the most romantic day of the year (every year) to specifically do non-romantic things. "Nah, I'm just going to have a quiet one, get some work done, go to the gym and incinerate a lock of my ex's hair in a bin."
2. Getting unnecessarily angry at friends for dropping out...
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE PULLING OUT OF THE PIZZA PARTY?! I can't very well have a solo pizza party. That would just be depressing. I don't CARE if he proposed..."
3. Using it as the focal point of your calendar
Marginally worse than saying Y2K+13 and calling December 23rd, Christmas Eve Eve is using Valentine's Day as a measuring stick for the rest of the month. "When does that chicken go out of date?" "Oh, two days after Valentines."
4. Getting abnormally spruced up for a day at work
Heels? Check. Extra make-up? Check. Fabulous mane of mega-hair? Check. Well, you never know, today might be the day that Pablo, the exotic sandwich man, cheekily slips his number into your ham sarnies.
5. You referred to February as the "Month Of Love"
(See also: calling it the highlight of "Cupid's Calendar" or seasonal end to "Winter Wuv")
That's right, the romantic monster has now mutated into a whole month. Saying this is marginally forgivable if you work in PR - and are desperately trying to push a bargain bin perfume into a month-long gift guide for clueless men. But in reality, February isn't the month of love; it's the month pale, cash-strapped people, break their New Year's resolutions and become tubby, while under a blanket of snow.
6. You work at Clinton Cards
Who sends cards anymore? Facebook has surely killed off 80% of the birthday card market - a wall post at 11:59 PM on your birthday is just as good as an actual card, right? Plus, you can buy Christmas cards in bulk. So what's left? Valentine's Day of course. The bigger the cards, the better - people buying those massive, impractical red cards and a stuffed teddy for good measure is probably the only thing keeping Clinton's staff fed and watered.
7. Checking your ex's relationship status on Facebook
It's either a case of Schadenfreude: "Good, he's still single. Well, if I feel this miserable, he must be reeaaaallly miserable." Or if he's found someone: "Oh brilliant, he's met someone. Great. He's gone and shacked up with an evil witch. Well, that's just lovely - let's just hope she eats their evil demon babies."
Or, worst case scenario: "It's complicated? What exactly is complicated? Who is he being complicated with?" *Begins to check recently tagged pictures for suspects*.
8. You sent a text to that guy
Sure, he got drunk, tried it on and said you shoud pay for dinner, all within ten minutes of the date starting. But hey, people change. And look, he has changed... his hair. Good enough, right?
9. Using free sign up offers for dating sites
"No, I'm not actually using it, I'm just browsing for a laugh. Gosh, look at him. He looks like a rotund Ryan Gosling in the right light, and what's that? He's only 30 miles away. Well, it would be rude not to send him a wink - we're practically neighbours! Hmm, maybe I should send a virtual gift as well, something low-key, yes, this scented, chocolate love pigeon ought to do nicely."

Who We Are
Our Mission: Compassion for Cats is a nonprofit organization dedicated to aiding cats and kittens, both feral and stray, who are homeless and in need of help. Our all-volunteer organization arranges to neuter and maintain feral cat colonies in many communities. CFC also socializes feral kittens and helps to place adoptable cats into safe and caring homes. CFC's Goals: 1. Trapping, neutering, vaccinating, and returning feral cats. 2. Maintaining the feral cat colonies and/or educating and assisting a caretaker to assume this responsibility. 3. Socializing and placing adoptable cats or kittens. 4. Arranging for veterinary care for injured, sick, or disabled cats. 5. Helping elderly, indigent, or medically challenged owners get veterinary care or find permanent homes for their cats. 6. Establishing a facility to be used as both a shelter and adoption center. Our Goals for the Future: Since we do not have a facility of our own, we currently rely on the use of foster homes. Our dream is to establish a shelter which would serve as a center for homeless cats awaiting adoption. This would be a "no kill" shelter – no cat would be euthanized unless it was suffering from an untreatable medical condition. The facility would not consist of the usual array of small cat cages; it would be a comfortable, non-stressful environment which would allow the cats room to exercise and explore. We also plan to eventually establish a permanent cat sanctuary. This will be a safe and comfortable cage-free environment for cats who are unable to be released or adopted.
Adopting a friend
Adoption Qualifications and Policies: 1. Adopters must be 21 years of age or older. 2. You must be able to provide adequate shelter for the cat or kitten. Your new cat will have will have a longer and better life if it is strictly an indoor pet. 3. If the adopter, at a later time, decides that they can no longer care for the animal, CFC must be contacted first. It cannot be placed in any other shelter or given to anyone without CFC's knowledge and consent. We will make every effort to find another loving home for the cat or kitten. 4. You must agree to take your cat in for regular vet visits. We want good lives for our animals and regular checkups and health maintenance are a must. 5. If, in CFC's judgment, the adopted animal is subject to abuse or mistreatment of any kind, CFC will repossess the animal. Adoption Procedures: All pets placed for adoption have been socialized, evaluated and seen by a veterinarian. All are up to date on shots, and will be spayed/neutered before placement. 1. Check out the list of the cats and kittens looking for loving homes on our adoption page, Adopt A Cat; or visit us at local adoption fairs. 2. If you want to adopt one of them, please contact us for an adoption application or print out an application from our web site. Submit your Adoption Application to CFC for processing. 3. Processing your application will be done as quickly as possible. 4. Upon application approval, you will be contacted to arrange a "pet introduction" appointment. During this meeting, you can look at the animal, play with it, and find out about its previous history. 5. Following the "pet introduction", a reference check will be conducted, including veterinarian reference(s), if applicable. 6. Upon mutual acceptance, the cat or kitten will be delivered to your home by a CFC representative. This "home visit" will be scheduled with you and your family. Please do not be offended at the prospect of an CFC member visiting your home. The only purpose of the home visit is to meet your family and other pets (if applicable) and to confirm your home will be a safe and loving environment for this new pet. We feel it's our responsibility to make sure they experience only love and kindness in their new "forever" homes. 9. Post adoption visits may be scheduled to check on the animal.
Come Visit Us!
We do not currently have a shelter--Our cats and kittens are housed at foster homes. Please see our contact information for our mailing address or visit our web site at www.compassionforcats.org.

Bugsy.... on TGIF and trying to be good
Oh and one last word... If anyone wants to send me treats... I'll be setting up a separate mailing address for that. It seems (according to HH) that the great food experiment -- you know the one where HH would fill the bowl and we were on the honor system to eat the right amount for our bodies -- failed. Or I should say, I sorta failed at it. Knuckles did great and looks as slim as when we started. Unfortunately, I didn't understand the instructions... thinking I was supposed to keep the bowl empty, I did gain.
So, I'm on a diet..... and so in my own defense, my less than angelic actions this week were not entirely my fault. I was a bit driven by hunger... 'nuf said.
Anyway, I hope all of you have a great weekend... and HH, I do promise to be a good boy... I do, I do, I do... so pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease give me back the big bowl of food.......

Ya know, Jen tried that with our kitties and it didn't work at all! So she started feeding them twice a day, and that worked some, but it also resulted in kitties wanting to be fed in the middle of the night. Now she leaves food out for Malachi but that isn't working because everybody is dipping. What to do? What to do?

cranberry 'Pilgrim'
- Position: full sun
- Soil: prefers moist, but freely draining acidic soil but will grow in sandy or normal soil
- Rate of growth: fast-growing
- Other features: delicious red berries
- Hardiness: fully hardy
This low-growing, evergreen cranberry has small, leathery leaves on lax stems that have an arching habit. Its attractive shape can be best admired when planted in a container so it can cascade over the sides of the pot. The tiny pinkish-red flowers appear in spring and are followed by tart dark red berries that are packed with nutrients and vitamins.
- Garden care: Prepare the ground well before planting by digging in lots of composted organic matter. Prune in winter, cutting out dead or damaged branches. In spring, feed with sulphate of ammonia, sulphate of potash and bonemeal and top-dress with ericaceous compost.
