Fatoumata is 13 years old and lives in Guinea. A student in Sougueta Primary School, which is supported by ChildFund, Fatoumata holds the position of minister of discrimination in her student government.
We asked her why she accepted this post.
"In my village, families do not easily accept each other. Those from the Mandingo ethnic group do not collaborate with ones from the Foula ethnic group," she says. "Unfortunately, our parents' bad behavior has extended even to the schools and is affecting relationships between students on campus."
She notes that students often fight each other and that each group of students discriminates against the other.
"I want to talk about peace with my fellow students and, if possible, with our parents," Fatoumata says.
Asked what advice she would give, Fatoumata doesn't hesitate: "To my friends, I would say, 'Make peace with each other because if we follow our parents' bad ways, we will not grow to become good people.'
To the parents, I would say, 'Help us grow and become good people in the future.' "

Reflecting the fifth article of the Universal Declaration of Water Rights — "Its protection is a vital need and a moral obligation of men to the present and future generations" — ChildFund Brasil strives to educate communities about water preservation for the benefit of future generations.
The project "Meu Meio, Minha Vida" (My Surroundings, My Life), is part of the Vigilantes da Água (Water Watchers) program and is a result of the efforts invested in the communities of Vereda, Bidó, Pedra do Bolo, Tombo and Empoeira, in the Jequitinhonha Valley, a semi-arid region in the state of Minas Gerais in eastern Brazil.
ChildFund Brasil's local partner organization, Municipal Community Association of Medina, carries out the program, which trains community leaders to monitor water quality and educate the community on advocating for their right to have access to clean water. Currently, 18 men and women monitor water quality, which benefits more than 200 families.
For Maria de Almeida, a 42-year-old farmer from the community of Tombo, participating in the program has been valuable. "This project made us learn more about the water we use," Maria says. "And, knowing that it was contaminated, we now fight for improvement and for the preservation of the springs. I feel happy to participate in the project and for the opportunity to educate other people."
Paula Gava, coordinator at the Medina community association, notes, "The program is a way of working on environmental issues as a whole in the community, of making everyone reflect on the environment. At the moment, we discuss the situation of water availability.
"The reality is that there is a lack of water during this period of drought, and furthermore, we've detected coliform bacteria contamination," he adds. "We already have people mobilized and aware of the bad water they consume. Our job is to provide information so that the community can organize themselves, feel empowered to demand clean water and become part of the solution."
As the program continues, community groups are working with Minas Gerais' rural extension agency and municipal health and agriculture departments to improve the quality of water.

Tariku, now 33, grew up in a family of nine in the Amhara region of Ethiopia. Without the support of ChildFund, he says he would not have been able to afford school materials or continue his education. Today, as a university graduate and a master's degree student, Tariku has found success. The following is his story in his own words:
Today I am going to tell you about myself, about how ChildFund changed my life, as it did for many children, by providing various kinds of support. ChildFund played a great role in my life and helped me become who I am now. I enrolled in the project when ChildFund opened its office at Semen Shoa, in the Amhara region, in 1992 during the downfall of the Derg political regime. At that time, I was a grade-six student, while my father was a soldier and my mom was a housewife. We were nine in the family.
I am the youngest in my family, except one younger sibling. However, no one in my family has gone far from home or been successful in education. Since I joined the project, ChildFund supported me with educational materials, health care and fulfilling our family's needs. Before, I had no means to buy books or other educational materials. The project provided me with everything I required for my education; that, in turn, increased my interest in learning.
After I finished my diploma in agriculture at Jimma University (a top Ethiopian teaching university) in 2000, I had the chance to join ChildFund's local partner organization staff as a community development worker. After some time there, I moved to a project in Addis Ababa.
I received my first degree in business management in 2009, and now I am a graduate student at Addis Ababa University in psychology. I am now a sponsorship relations head at work.
"Supporting one child means supporting the family."
One thing that I want to highlight is how ChildFund's work is fruitful. There are many successful alumni who are working in many areas in different organizations. Supporting one child means supporting the family. For instance, my family has benefited a lot. I have created work opportunities for my elder siblings by supporting them financially, and I was able to teach my younger sibling.
The support I received in the Semen Shoa project is the basis of all my success. I can say that ChildFund was just as important as my blood circulation.
I am sure that I will keep on improving my life even after this, but I will give credit to ChildFund often. Now I am successful in my work. I want to be a role model and pass this message on to other children who are receiving support from ChildFund to give credit for what ChildFund did for them. I hope that many children will attain similar success to what I have achieved now.
Dry weather can lead to disaster in developing countries. Without backup water supplies during a drought, food gets scarcer and more expensive, and people — usually the most vulnerable — become malnourished. This scenario repeats itself all over Africa, and Burkina Faso was one of the most recent countries stricken.
However, this story has a happier ending than many, thanks to the leadership of Christian Children's Fund Canada, part of the ChildFund Alliance. Beginning in April 2012, CCFC started a project that targeted 12,000 people at risk of illness and death related to malnutrition — mainly children under the age of 5 and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Canadian supporters and other Alliance partners, including ChildFund International, made donations that helped this project succeed.
The project, which ended in December, provided supplementary feeding and related training; distributed food rations; supplied seeds and fertilizer; and distributed goats and sheep. In the end, about 19,000 people in 20 communities in Burkina Faso benefitted.
With some funds remaining and new funding coming in, the focus in Burkina Faso has now shifted to helping the communities prepare for future droughts and become more resilient.

Photographs span different languages and long distances, as a group of American and Brazilian students learned during an exchange program. In January, 12 students from Soka University in California's Orange County traveled to Brazil to work with teens involved in ChildFund Brasil's Photovoice project.
The group gathered in the city of Medina for a workshop. The teens and college students shared their approaches toward setting up pictures and, along the way, gained an appreciation for a different culture.
"It was an exchange where all students were engaged in teaching and learning," says ChildFund Brasil Social Program Manager Dov Rosenmann.
The workshops took place at Medina's Little House of Culture, another important project of ChildFund, which has worked in Brazil for 46 years. The space is meant to revive community bonds and pride in their cultural roots. Children, teens and young adults often find encouragement to pursue arts and other interests there while also gaining technological skills.
Besides participating in the Photovoice workshops, the American students also donated six digital cameras and one projector that will be used by students from the communities that participate in this project.
Photovoice was developed by ChildFund Brasil in partnership with social organizations all over the country with the goal of promoting peaceful coexistence and healthy social relationships among young people through the art of photography. Participants take pictures of daily life in their communities, many of which are lacking necessary resources.
In addition to acquiring knowledge about photography, the young people have the opportunity to express their points of view about the daily life in the community and to reflect with criticism about what they photograph. More than 300 youths have taken part in Photovoice.
The teens decide on which subjects to capture — often family relationships, local culture, nature and social themes. "The importance is to capture the elements that contain a meaningful story," Rosenmann says.

Much significance is attached to the Easter egg tradition: springtime, fertility, rebirth and life. But for the women of the community of Sao Joao de Chapada, near the city of Diamantina in Brazil, an egg hunt has become a daily activity that not only means nutritious food for their children but also a much-needed source of income.
But which came first: the chicken or the egg? In this case, the chicken, thanks to ChildFund Brasil's Chicken Plus project, which allows many women in extremely arid regions of Brazil to produce food and generate income at home instead of having to migrate to cities for work. This helps ease the problem of families leaving home and residing in urban slums.
In Sao Joao de Chapada, the community farm project started with a donation of 300 chicks a few years ago, and now the chicken population has grown to 1,200. The eggs provide high-protein nutrition for more than 30 pre-school children attending an early childhood development center, plus healthy meals and snacks for older children and families participating in the project. Each family receives 12 eggs a week and one chicken per month for consumption or for selling at the local market, along with other farm products like vegetables and homemade goods.
Geralda, a mother of four, volunteers at the community farm about two hours a day. "While we work with the other mothers picking up the eggs, cleaning the farm or in the community garden, our children play and learn at the community center," she says. "With the money we get from the eggs, we feed our families and keep the project going, so we'll always have food." A community savings fund, set up when the farm was established, ensures that chicken production keeps going strong.
With a sustainable approach, the project is leading community members toward the development of innovative businesses based on chicken farming. The project also enhances women's business skills by emphasizing quality control, microcredit options and entrepreneurship.

To mark World Water Day on March 22, we're focusing on the myriad challenges children and families face without a reliable source of clean water.
My name is Fátima. I am 11 years old, I live in Gondola, Mozambique, and I attend Bela-Vista Primary School.
Formerly in my school there was no water source, which compelled us to walk long distances with a 20-liter container looking for water in other neighboring communities between 5 and 7 kilometers (3 to 4 miles) away from the school.
Consequently, our lavatories were unclean and classrooms floors were rarely mopped up, which exposed all of us to the risk of catching diseases related to poor hygiene.
Luckily, a water borehole has been dug on our school grounds by ChildFund, so now we are very happy because we do not need to walk long distances to access water anymore. Drinkable water can be obtained 7 to 10 meters (23 to 30 feet) away.
Our classrooms are not dusty anymore because we keep them neat, and our lavatories are always clean. We are less likely to catch diseases, as we now quench our thirst with treated water from the borehole.
This lady pictured in the red coat is my mother. She is pumping the water up here at my school for us to use at home. The beneficiaries of the water are not only schoolchildren but also the neighboring community. We don't need to walk long distances looking for water to drink, to cook, to wash our clothes and to give our animals to drink.

Cochabamba, a city in central Bolivia, made it into the news in 2000 for its "water wars." Today, its communities still struggle for access to clean water, but ChildFund makes life a bit easier for residents by providing education and water purification systems. Today, as we mark World Water Day, we take a look at the situation in Cochabamba.
In the Bolivian city of Cochabamba, water is a scarce resource. The city is located in an extremely dry valley, where most of the scenery is dominated by desert and dusty roads with little greenery or vegetation.
Luisa is a mother of five children, ages 11 years to 7 months. She and her husband, Zenón, arrived in Cochabamba a few years ago with many other migrants from Bolivia's rural areas when the country's main mining company closed and left thousands of people unemployed.
The family settled in a marginal area of Cochabamba, where no electricity, paved roads or water services are available.
The water problem in Bolivia is not new. In fact, Cochabamba's water wars made news in 2000 after protests over water prices erupted into violence. The conflict inspired several movies and documentaries. Today, more than a decade later, Bolivia continues to suffer from South America's lowest water coverage levels, as well as low quality of services, especially in terms of sanitation.
ChildFund Bolivia works in the most vulnerable and deprived areas of Cochabamba through local partner Obispo Anaya to help families gain access to purified water, educating them about water-usage techniques and improving hygiene and sanitation systems to avoid the spread of diseases that include diarrhea, chagas disease (a parasitic infection), respiratory and skin infections.
Luisa has worked as a community leader with ChildFund Bolivia's local partner for the past seven years, and one of her family's main concerns is water. Having to buy water has always been an additional expense that was eating up a big portion of their small monthly budget. Her family still has to buy water, but the expense is lower thanks to ChildFund's efforts.
At the ChildFund-supported community center, families receive training on how to use a simple water purification system, which requires only sunlight and plastic bottles to kill germs, viruses and bacteria that can be present in water.
"We don't need to buy bottled water anymore or boil it," Luisa says. "We used to spend much more money for water. We still have to buy it from the water truck, but we spend less." The family still buys two to three tanks full of water a week, which is approximately 15 bolivianos (US$2), half of what Zenón makes in one day of work.
Now Luisa trains other mothers in her community about proper usage of water purification systems. Her children are also healthier: Baby Tania is growing much stronger, as well as her brother Jonas, who is 3. Luisa's three older children attend school and have healed from the skin infections that they used to get before the family began using the water purification system.
ChildFund's program has helped me in many ways… to take better care of my children," Luisa says. "They have taught us how to better clean our house and avoid diseases, and how to use water better and wash our hands, and I can see the difference, as my little babies don't get sick anymore, as the elders did."

World Water Day is held annually on March 22 to focus attention on the importance of freshwater and to advocate for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.
It's quiet in the neighborhood around Nabilid Elementary School. The school sits amid a small community of 10 houses and a sari-sari store that sells packets of instant noodles, soda and junk food. The peace is only broken by the roar of an occasional jeepney bus, carrying children and their adult guardians to and from school in this section of the southern Philippines island of Mindanao.
Amid the dust and black exhaust, passengers have to cover their noses and mouths with handkerchiefs. Thirsty children walk straight to the school's canteen after arriving, seeking something to drink.
Because the school's water system doesn't work properly, children go for artificially flavored juices or cola, which are cheaper than juice. Nabilid's water taps were installed incorrectly, so mud gurgles from them.
Lacking funding to correct the plumbing problem, the school is forced to ration water collected in large drums, but soon this situation is set to improve.
ChildFund has a long-standing partnership with Nabilid Elementary, supporting early childhood development programs, child-friendly teaching methods, teacher training, peer mentoring among older students and stocking of learning materials and books for students. "Nabilid's made good with ChildFund's support, adopting ECD in their curriculum and developing their faculty," says Marlene, a ChildFund Philippines staff member. "ChildFund recognizes, however, how water is specifically crucial to the success of our efforts here." This is why ChildFund is installing a clean and functional water system at Nabilid.
Marlene is monitoring the progress of the water system's construction at Nabilid and five other schools in the southern Philippines. "Though seemingly oblique, providing a safe water supply is in fact crucial to ECD services at schools," Marlene says. Activities like hand-washing and personal hygiene education, as well as and some parent-education activities like nutritious food preparation, become difficult without water.
"Completion of the water supply systems in these five areas alone will benefit a total student population of 20,000 boys and girls," Marlene notes. Nabilid's new water system is expected to be fully functional by the end of March.
The school administration is appreciative of the progress and matches ChildFund's contribution by committing labor and some construction supplies. ChildFund's local partner agency will also help the school design common sinks just the right height for younger children. The School Governance Council has also pledged to maintain the water system once it's in place.
ECD sessions continue while the Philippines' older students are on summer break, which began in mid-March and continues through May. Over these months, Nabilid's teachers expect more heat and dust. Once the water starts flowing, though, children will have a school environment that's more conducive to learning.

World Water Day is held annually on March 22 to focus attention on the importance of freshwater and to advocate for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.
All over the world, children's hands get dirty while they're playing. But not everyone has access to soap and running water. In Indonesia, one of the Early Childhood Development centers supported by ChildFund has tackled the problem of cleanliness without easy access to fresh water.
"Children always enjoy playing here," says Sriyatun, a tutor who works at the Early Childhood Development center in Kulonprogo, Central Java. "They play with the blocks, crayons, water and other local materials such as corn seed and bamboo.
"Their hands, however, soon become dirty," she adds. "Children need to wash their hands before they eat. Unfortunately, we don't have the facility. We usually brought the children to the mosque next to our ECD center to wash their hands."
Not wanting to prolong this situation, Sriyatun and the other tutors recently hand-built a "water facility" for the children in the front yard of the center. The system consists of clay water pots with spigots that were contributed by a parent. Teachers and parents still must bring the water from elsewhere, but the clay pots keep the water fresh and allow easy, controlled dispensing.
"It isn't healthy to wash your hands using water from a bucket, as the water gets dirtier the more people use it," Sriyatun says. "Also, as we should always use running water and soap when we wash our hands to prevent illnesseses such as diarrhea, we thought this idea would work."
A growing awareness of the importance of handwashing is one result of ChildFund's efforts to build integrated community-based health services.
"We want parents and children to be more aware of the importance of handwashing at the critical times of day, for example, before eating and after using the restroom," Sriyatun notes. "It's also important to wash your hands before feeding a child and after cleaning a child's bottom and, of course, before preparing food and after touching animals."
Today, people in the community are more aware of the importance of hygiene than they were in earlier generations, Sriyatun says. "They even practice handwashing at their home now, which they didn't use to do."
According to one mother, Ngatini, whose 3-year-old son is enrolled in the ECD program, "If we ask them to wash their hands, they will do it, but it can sometimes be a challenge. If, on the other hand, the teacher asks them to wash their hands, children comply more easily and even do it at home without being asked to."

I know this was done once before, but the difference in themeing is fantastic.
The paint is really awesome. The camera does not do it justice. The paint has a really soft lustre to it. It looks expensive and it's really pretty.
I stopped at Pizza Oom Mow Mow for lunch. I was the only one in line. Once I ordered it took several minutes for them to make my food. Apparently reading that paper was more important than serving guests. That's nice.

Off to the glass or equivalent layer is something I'd suggest you fix sooner rather than later, just to reduce the possibility of water finding invisible cracks that can let it get between layers.
But as in the first reply - we have bumped our fiberglass kayaks over plenty of bumpy roads without losing gel coat because of it. If it is due to road travel, I'd look hard at the boat and/or how you are hauling it.

ARLINGTON, Texas Rangers pitcher Roy Oswalt told local reporters Tuesday he's been aware he had cleared waivers for several weeks. Ken Rosenthal of foxsports.com reported earlier in the day that Oswalt cleared waivers and suggested the Dodgers as a potential trade partner. Oswalt did not express desire to be traded, but he's made no secret that he is not happy being in the bullpen. Oswalt (4-2, 5.94) made two spot starts recently but manager Ron Washington said there is no guarantee he will get another start the rest of the season. "His role is long relief," Washington said. As for Oswalt's seemingly negative body language after being pulled from those spot starts a subject of internet and talk show chatter Washington said Oswalt's attitude has not been an issue. "He's been a pro," Washington said. No signs of a return for Napoli Catcher Mike Napoli has been eligible to return from the disabled list since Sunday, but so far he has not sai...

Though Blu's product is a little more sophisticated than what many of his peers in the game are pushing, the Cali rapper/producer bears no illusions about his role: whatever else you seek to accomplish with your music, you've first and foremost got to deliver that addictive combination of rhythm and flow—that Rap Dope—that'll keep hip-hop heads fiending for more. On single numero uno off his next studio album, he shows us how it's done, enlisting project collaborator Bombay to craft a hazy, headphone-ready backdrop for entertainingly breezy, yet deceptively complex bars from the Golden State mainstay. Has Blu succeeded in hooking you with the first taste of his forthcoming project?

SniperŌĆÖs Execution Given Go-Ahead
September 29, 2009 - 10:52 AMVirginia Gov. Tim Kaine says he can't think of any reason he would stop the execution of Washington, D.C.-area sniper John Allen Muhammad.
Muhammad is scheduled to be executed Nov. 10 for the October 2002 killing spree that left 10 dead in the nation's capital, Virginia and Maryland.
Kaine says on his monthly radio show on WTOP that Muhammad's lawyers have yet to ask for clemency, but he will review any petitions. He says he knows of no credible claim of innocence or procedural error that would cause him to stop the execution.
A federal court has rejected Muhammad's arguments that prosecutors withheld critical evidence and that he should not have been allowed to act as his own attorney for part of his trial due to mental illness.

Wil Myers Tampa Bay RaysNEW YORK Jose Fernandez of the Miami Marlins and Wil Myers of the Tampa Bay Rays were selected baseballs Rookies of the Year on Monday.
Fernandez stood out in a very deep National League class, and the pitcher received 26 of 30 first-place votes from a Baseball Writers Association of America panel. His debut season was so superb that hes one of three finalists for the NL Cy Young Award, with the winner to be announced Wednesday.
Myers took home the American League prize after putting up impressive offensive numbers in barely half a season. The right fielder was chosen first on 23 of 30 ballots, beating out Detroit shortstop Jose Iglesias and Rays teammate Chris Archer.
Myers became the third Tampa Bay player in six years to be selected Rookie of the Year, joining Jeremy Hellickson (2011) and Evan Longoria (2008).
Its awesome, Myers said in an interview on MLB Network. Its a huge honor to win this. Im very excited about it.
Fernandez easily topped runner-up Yasiel Puig of the Los Angeles Dodgers. The right-hander was the fourth Marlins player in 11 years to win, following Chris Coghlan (2009), Hanley Ramirez (2006) and Dontrelle Willis (2003).
After the Marlins dumped nearly all of their high-priced stars last winter, Fernandez was a rare bright spot in Miamis 62-100 season. He made the All-Star team at age 20 and went 12-6 with a 2.19 ERA and 187 strikeouts in 172 2-3 innings.
The 22-year-old Myers batted .293 with 13 home runs and 53 RBIs in only 88 games after he was called up from the minors June 18. He immediately added much-needed power to the middle of the Rays lineup, helping them reach the playoffs as an AL wild card.
Myers was rated one of baseballs best hitting prospects when he was traded from Kansas City to Tampa Bay last December in a seven-player deal that sent pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis to the Royals.
The Rays were 36-33 before Myers arrived this season and went 56-38 the rest of the way. They won a tiebreaker at Texas for the final AL playoff berth and beat Cleveland in the wild-card game before getting eliminated by eventual World Series champion Boston in the division series.
Myers finished with 131 points in the balloting to 80 for Iglesias, traded from the Boston Red Sox to Detroit Tigers just before the deadline in late July. Archer and fellow pitcher Dan Straily of the Oakland Athletics each had one first-place vote.

Boreal opening weekend with some good friends, seeking the best of times, getting ready for another great season in the Tahoe.
How many snowboards or skateboards are thrown in the trash each year? I've broken countless numbers of snowboards that I have collected over the years. They would collect in my garage as I would continue to tell myself I'd eventually make something cool out of them. Maybe a bench? But I'd never get around to it and just keep adding to my pile of trashed snowboards....
This summer I had the pleasure of running into local Sacramento artist Julia Kropinova. She asked me if I had any old or broken snowboards laying around I could give to her. I must admit I was a little sad to see my collection of worthless snowboards dwindle because I really wanted to make something out of them, but who was I kidding, I would probably never get around to it. I also underestimated her artistic vision, even though I had been impressed with her paintings, I figured she'd just paint something on the boards and be finished. I was in for a pleasant surprise.
There is no better time to skate than after the sun sets, temperature cools, crowds disburse and the owls come out. Search the closet and find yourself a generator, a collection of lights, two cameras and a handful of skateboarders and your ready to capture something cool. Grab your granny and prepare for some tranny packed skateboarding maneuvers at the Truckee skatepark after hours.
Riders: Keenan Hawkins, Matty Britton, Ryland West, Scott Thompson & Austin Hawkins
Promo for Out to Luch skateboarding short. Stay tuned.
Skaters: Max Hofert, Sean Flaherty, Bob Spanbauer, Afghan Dan, Davis Lonergan, Collin Mitchell, Mike Marks, Marshall Winter, and many more
There is no mistaking Big Homies style when he's spotted on his snowboard. Its not because he's the only 6+ foot snowboarder rocking sweatpants, but because he's got one of the smoothest styles around. Well okay, and because he wears sweatpants everyday of the year. Regardless, take a gander at this footy from last Spring at Mammoth.

Motorsport has been around far longer than most people care to think, spanning back multiple generations to the beginning of the 20th century. As time moves forward, so does society and the modern progression of technology. Many cars are sold off after a single season of racing, or cannibalized and parted out to be faster and better for next year's chassis. What happens to the survivors though? Many are stuffed away in storage as collector items, destined to be nothing more than conversation starters. Others are lucky enough to continue stretching their legs on the racetrack while being maintained secondhand. This story is about the latter, the survivors.

I looked long and hard for a comforter that was elegant AND practical (ie. machine washable and dog friendly). I believe I finally found it! This looks great; It really transformed the look of my room. I'll have to say that the accent pillows really help complete the look. And because it's not a silky material, it won't snag whenever my dog walks on it.
This set looks almost exactly as it did online. If anything, it looks better. It is thick and the colors are beautiful! The only think that would have made it perfect was if it was machine washable!
I really do like the set but the picture is misleading. I purchased it thinking it was grey with dark grey accents (the lines and on the pillows). But, know it is light grey with black accents. Otherwise, I am pleased. I still liked it enough to keep it!
Very soft and generous in size! For the price and quality, this comforter set is a very good buy for the money!
after looking for a grey comforter set for quite a while I was thrilled to find this on overstock. It was reasonably priced and in my opinion a very good value.
Madison Queen set is quite lovely, but more important extremely soft to the touch. I would suggest ordering a size up�..my queen set is an exact fit, but would like the comforter to cover more of the front and sides of mattress. I have an 18 inch (Deep Pocket) mattress so, may fit better on regular sized queen matters. Still a great bargain! Keep in mind that set is light grey with black trimming not grey. Also, the bed skirt is black too. I thought it was grey��oh well!
Very nice quality comforter set. I needed for just the grey, so black border was a little distracting for my overall, look, but works fine. Pillows are really nicely made. Did not need bedskirt. Would have been nice to include euro shams instead. Sizing very generous for queen size bed with pillow top mattress. Covers each side perfectly.
Received this 7 piece set recently, the throw pillows have some stitching issues, loose threads etc. And the quality of the comforter is about what I would expect to find at a local low cost box store. I would not recommend this product definitely not worth the money.
I've had this comforter for less than a month and the sewn pattern is already coming loose, and the pattern wasn't quite right to begin with. It looked cheap right out of the bag, but we needed something to put on our bed. It's been through the wash once which means even more of the threading is coming out.. I wouldn't recommend this set. For the money you can go down to your local superstore and buy something comparable or even better.
Arrived just as it looks. Very warm and soft. Was concerned about polyester however it is not an issue.

Classic Cops of the Day: Sarasota
Date: October 17, 2011
by: Observer Staff
June 29, 2010
The grass is greener
5:23 p.m. — 4000 block of Crockers Lake Boulevard. Civil Disturbance. After the air conditioning in an apartment unit broke down, the apartment manager moved that tenant into an unoccupied unit, while the a/c was being repaired. After it was fixed, the tenant moved back into his apartment, but called the manager a short time later saying the a/c was still not working, and he wanted to return to the unoccupied unit. The manager inspected the air conditioner and told sheriff's deputies that it looked like it was intentionally punctured. The air conditioner was fixed again, but the tenant still refused to return to his apartment. That new apartment must have been really nice.

You'd think that after knocking out the man that many consider the greatest mixed martial artist of all time, new UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman would be able to sit back, take it easy, and reflect on his accomplishment for at least a moment.
That's not how he sees it, however, after knocking Anderson Silva out at UFC 162 in Las Vegas on Saturday night.
"I gotta get better. I feel like I still haven't really looked my best," he stated at the UFC 162 post-fight press conference. "So I'm really just looking forward to going back out there and keep holding on to this belt as long as possible."

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
Life, love and romance. Definitely a glass fully full kind of girl I enjoy experience as opposed to the material - skin on skin, sleeping under the stars on a warm summer's night, being in the great outdoors with the wind blowing through my hair (well I do drive a convertible), the smell of fresh coffee on a lazy Sunday morning. Having experienced a ton of Worldwide adventures, I am now ready to find my soul mate, to share a deep connection, meaningful but lighthearted, fun and passionate and above all deeply romantic.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Lots of things, my job, skiing, kissing
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
My very red hair and the fiery, passionate girl underneath it!
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
I'm not good with favourites - I always like too much. I like reading, especially when on holiday and favourite authors include Annita Shrieve, Alexander McCall smith and Ian McEwan. As for films, I don't go the cinemas as much as I would like but enjoy all sorts - chic flicks, action, commedy. Love Bruce Willis and Liam Neilson. Music is anything mainstream particularly the Killers, Keane and Stereophonics. I also have a few guilty pleasures - Lady Gaga, Rhianna, Madonna. I love good food and eating in and and out but no particular style or genre.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
1. My passport so I can enjoy holidays.
2. Mountains to ski down.
3. Beautiful countryside to walk or run through.
4. A good mug of tea in the morning and a mug of freshly ground coffee in the afternoon.
5. Sadly my iphone and ipad.
6. Am I allowed to say sex .........

Karis with Sit Means Sit San Antonio had a squirrly one on her hands with Elsa, the young yellow lab. Elsa is a very happy girl with a ton of energy but we needed to teach her to listen but keep the energy! Karis used places to teach her to control her energy and not only taught her to walk well on a leash, but taught her to walk very well off leash!

Holiday Dos and Don'ts for Dogs
Holidays can be a time of food and fun for most people, but for dogs they can be a dangerous time of the year. Troy Pfeifer with Sit Means Sit visited our studio on Thursday along with his trusty sidekick Jezebel to share some tips for protecting your pets this time of year. Ornaments, tinsel and other decorations often look like shiny toys to our pets, so we should be mindful of where those items are located in our homes. There are a variety of foods that can also pose health hazards. Very bitter chocolate can be poisonous to dogs, and cooked bones can often splinter and do harm to their internal organs. Bread dough can also be dangerous because the yeast will proof in the dog's stomach and can cause a blockage. Also food like stuffing that may have a variety of things like onions, garlic and raisins in it should never be given to dogs. A great command to teach your dogs for this time of year is "Leave It". It helps to prevent an accidental food drop from becoming a dangerous situation.
Check out our 5 Dangerous Holiday Items That Are Harmful to Dogs and our other articles on things your dogs should not have.

A Day In The Life of A Board and Train With Sit Means Sit Dog Training!
Ever wonder how a dog spends his day during a board and train? Danielle with Sit Means Sit Austin had a yellow lab, Gracie, for our immersion board and train program and she documented what happens in the day in the life of a board and train! There is a lot of training going on, sit, place, leash walking, off leash stuff but also a lot of fun happens as well!
Danielle Kilgore Trainer Profile
Growing up in a little west Texas town, out in the country, we had all types of animals, from horses and goats to gerbils and birds. I learned early on the companionship our pets can give and have remained an animal lover in to adulthood, currently owning two dogs, a cat, a gecko and some fish. But, we always had at least two dogs, and for some reason, I always seemed to have the special relationship with them.
Throughout my childhood, my mom bred and raised Golden Retrievers. I remember each time, when the puppies came, helping her care not only for our mommy dogs, but also the litters of 8-12 pups at a time! I remember staying up late nights, preparing meals, nursing puppies, cleaning up after them, helping potty train them, meeting with the vet to vaccinate them, and so forth. Even in my young age, I knew owning a dog was a major responsibility. I can only remember 9 months of my life when I did not have a dog, and I swear that was only because I wasn't allowed to while living in student housing during college! Even still, I would "borrow" my cousin's Shih-tzu to take to the park and on walks weekly. I couldn't bear to not have a canine companion.

Preventing Bites with Sit Means Sit at Studio 512
Troy Pfeifer with Sit Means Sit gave us helpful tips on how to avoid getting bitten by a dog, and how you can protect yourself when a dog attacks. When approaching a dog, you should hold out a fist rather than an open hand. If the dog does bite, this will cause much less pain and probably a less severe bite. Approach new dogs like you would a stranger. Hugs and kisses and too much movement can startle a dog right off the bat, so give them a gentle pet on their side to begin with and let it get a feel for you. If you're nervous about being attacked, become a tree. Be as still as possible and the dog will calm down. If you're about to be attacked, hold something like a backpack, purse, jacket, etc. between your body and the dog. The dog will focus on the object rather than you. Troy also spoke a little about how to tell differences between a happy dog and one that's stressed out. Happy dogs will have ears up and a loose wagging tail while stressed or upset dogs may growl, have a closed mouth, ears back, or even lick their snout. If you stop by Sit Means Sit, they offer classes that can teach you more in depth the things he taught us today.Visit Sit Means Sit online or call (512) 348-RUFF [7833] for a free consultation. with Sit Means Sit gave us helpful tips on how to avoid getting bitten by a dog, and how you can protect yourself when a dog attacks.

5 Fun Things to Do With Your Dog in Austin and San Antonio
You enjoy the company of your well-trained dog. But where should you go? In fact, there are numerous dog-friendly places in both San Antonio and Austin that are just begging to be explored! Here are our favorites:
1. Annual Schlotzsky's Bun Run 5K – Austin
This family-friendly event takes place toward the end of September at the corner of Alterra Parkway and Kramer Lane (off Burnett Road) in Austin. It is designed for runners as well as children. But Schlotzsky's takes it a step further. The organizer also welcomes pets. In fact, speedy dogs have the opportunity to win the title of "Fastest Dog in Austin!" If you cannot make it to this particular run, note that there are a lot of local 5K events that welcome well-behaved dogs alongside their human companion runners.
2. Tom Slick Dog Park - San Antonio
Located at 7400 Highway 151 in San Antonio, this is not your average dog park. Instead it is a one-acre facility that features separate off-leash areas for small and large dogs. There are benches, picnic tables and even a doggie shower to help the canines cool off after playtime.
3. Hike around Comanche Lookout Park - San Antonio
Head over to 15551 Nacogdoches in San Antonio for the opportunity to take a 4.55-mile hike with your four-legged friend. There are plenty of like-minded dog lovers who bring out their pets as well. Well-behaved dogs have a wide variety of opportunities for socializing – as do their owners.
4. Sisters Grimm Ghost Walk - San Antonio
Start at 300 Alamo Plaza and walk through one of the world's oldest cities and hear tales no soul dares to tell! Tours are available Monday through Saturday and begin at 8:30. Cameras are recommended! Adult tickets are $15 and children (7-15) are $10. Don't forget your walking shoes! Tour operators welcome the opportunity to share this walk with leashed dogs that are behaved around adults, children and other dogs.
5. Doga! – Austin
Would you like to do yoga with your dog? Austin's Nicole Vykoukal makes it possible. The goal is for dog lovers to become healthier and for dogs and their humans to deepen their bonds. Join a group session or book a one-on-one class with the instructor. (If your dog has not yet gone through our obedience training, it may be best to opt for the one-on-one for right now.)
There are many more dog-friendly places in Austin as well as great places to take your dog in San Antonio. Please remember, all of these activities will only be pleasurable for both you and your canine companion if it is trained to follow at least basic commands and also behaves well around other people and dogs. If you are unsure whether your dog has the right training or temperament for these activities, talk to our friendly dog training experts.
We gladly evaluate your dog and ensure that you have a happy and confident animal that will do well at whatever event you intend to visit. Conversely, if your dog needs a bit more training or just some reinforcement, we can help you get the animal ready for the fun adventures that you are looking forward to having together.
We also invite you to check out our Calendar of Events. If you're interested in any of these venues to have a great time with your pups, click on the images for links to each location!
Stop! Your Dog Can't Eat That!
The lure of supplementing your dog's chow with fruits and vegetables from your table is strong. After all, these foods are considered healthy for human consumption, so why not also for your dog? In the alternative, you are serious about feeding your dog a nutritious chow that is formulated for its dietary needs. Yet you have noticed that he has been getting into your pantry. Should you move some of the groceries?
List of Foods That Are Bad for Your Dog
In fact, there is a list of inappropriate and dangerous foods that Doctors Foster and Smith have put together. Examples include:
- Caffeine. Whether it is in your chocolate stash, your coffee grounds or the tea leaves, caffeine has proven to have a toxic effect on the canine's nervous system as well as on the heart.
- Cat food. If you are feeding your pets together, it is not unusual for the dog to also gobble up the cat's food. The problem here is that food for feline consumption is usually formulated with elevated levels of protein and fat. This will lead to obesity in dogs. Separate the food bowls and do not give cat food to your dog in a pinch when you run out of regular chow.
- Raisins. It may be funny to watch your dog catch a raisin out of the air, but consider that grapes and raisins contain a toxin that adversely affects the pet's kidneys.
- Onions. Famous for containing sulfoxides, onions have been connected to anemia in dogs as well as cats. Extremely light-colored gums are a sign of possible anemia.
- Rawhide. Dog's Best Life Magazine warns that rawhide is a common culprit in cases of digestive tract obstructions. In many of these cases, speedy veterinary care is of the utmost importance to avoid death.
It is imperative to bar access to any of these foods.
What's the Best Dog Food?
So, what should you feed your dog? The ideal chow is natural and does not contain any of the fillers that are so common in grocery store dog food. The protein should be of the highest quality, which means that your dog absorbs more of the nutrients. As a result, you will be able to feed less than you have been accustomed to when using store-bought chow. Therefore, you actually save money when switching to high-quality food.
We recommend Life's Abundance. The standard all-life-stage dry dog food contains 26 percent of crude protein and 16 percent of fat. Fiber is present to the tune of 3.5 percent. If the pet requires a weight loss formula, choose the specially formulated diet mix. With 28.5 percent of protein but only 11.5 percent of fat, the dog receives the necessary nutrients but without a lot of the fat. This will assist your companion canine with weight loss. Of course, a second part of this equation is regular exercise for the pet, play time and also off-leash run time at a dog park.
The latter is only possible when your dog is properly trained. If you are worried about your pet's behavior toward other dogs or their owners, contact Sit Means Sit for our popular Lunch and Learn program. We work with businesses that would like to see a demonstration of what proper training could achieve in the average dog. We even bring pizza for lunch or bagels for breakfast! So, do not feed your dog inappropriate foods. Eliminate opportunities for the pet to sneak into your trash or pantry. Exercise it more, and ensure that its behavior is up to par for a visit to the dog park.

Traffic volumes are picking up on southbound 35W from 95th Avenue to Hwy. 280. It's not horrible yet, but that is one of the most congested routes during the rush hour. Motorists at this hour are moving just below the posted speeds, making for a 15-minute trip.
On northbound 35W in Bloomington, look for building levels between Burnsville Pkwy. and the Minnesota River bridge. That is only adding a couple minutes to the drive.
Elsewhere, things are moving quite well at this hour, with no accidents or major delays to report.

Populus fremontii
Western Cottonwood, Fremont Cottonwood
Deciduous, Trees
Fast-growing, tough trees. Grown primarily and especially appreciated in interior regions with hot summers and cold winters. They don't do as well in mild-winter areas and in coastal climates where temperature fluctuation is minimal. Trees have aggressive surface roots that crowd out other plants, heave pavement, and clog sewer and drainage lines; best suited to rural areas and fringes of large properties. Most poplars will sucker if their roots are cut or disturbed. They are subject to many pests and diseases. Despite their liabilities, some of these trees are beautiful or distinctive enough to be widely sold. Many have good fall color. Leaves of most are roughly triangular, sometimes toothed or lobed. Pendulous catkins (denser on male trees) appear in spring before leafout. Female trees later bear masses of cottony seeds that blow about and become a nuisance; for that reason, male (seedless) varieties are the best choice and are usually offered in nurseries.Populus fremontii
Native to California and the central Rockies south to Mexico. Grows to 40–60 ft. or taller and 30 ft. wide. Glossy yellow-green, coarsely toothed, virtually triangular leaves turn bright lemon yellow in fall. Leaves persist almost all winter in Zone 12. 'Nevada' is a male variety.
