Need ideas for a spring wedding bouquet? If you aren't sure which flowers best suit a springtime bouquet, consider any of these flower types for your floral wedding arrangements.
Many brides know exactly what they want when it comes to spring wedding bouquets and floral arrangements, while others are clueless as to which flowers are appropriate for the season. In reality, you can choose almost any flowers you wish for your spring wedding arrangements, but it helps to choose flowers that are in bloom and that are readily available. Also, seasonal spring flowers will naturally match the theme and feel of the overall occasion.
If you aren't familiar with some of the most basic types of spring wedding flowers, then any of the following ideas will give you a good idea of what to choose for your bouquet and other arrangements.
Lilies are some of the most popular spring wedding flowers. Admired for their simple elegance and soft, feminine beauty, any type of lily is an ideal flower to add to your wedding bouquet.
Peonies are another staple flower choice for many spring wedding bouquets. Soft, romantic, colorful, and super feminine, they can be used alone or with other flowers to create a luscious spring arrangement.
Often used in combination with other flowers, violets help create a picturesque spring wedding bouquet. One look at them and you'll envision lots of sunshine, pretty pastels, and sweet white bunny rabbits hopping around the gardens.
Magnolias are just as popular as lilies in the springtime; famous for their versatile, chic look. Magnolias look great on their own, or they can be paired with flowers such as violets. If you are wearing a very modern wedding gown, magnolias are a fabulous choice.
What is springtime without tulips? These classic flowers are gorgeous in every color, and they embrace the spirit of spring perhaps better than any other flower! If you want to choose lovely flowers to work with for your spring wedding bouquet, you cannot go wrong with a handful of cheerful tulips.

Kneeboarding is a family oriented sport that can be fun and exciting everyone, regardless of age or athletic ability. It is much easier than waterskiing or wakeboarding. Every family should have a kneeboard included in the list of waterskis and wakeboards that you take on your boat, because it is the easiest board to ride.
The hook holds the waterski handle while the rider gets up on the kneeboard. The kneeboard hook is essential for getting up on the board. Each brand has its own name, Hydroslide has the Hydroslide Hydro Hook, Obrien has the Aquatic Hook, and Connelly has the Connelly Rope Hook. If you are a beginner to intermediate rider, buy a board with the hook. Advanced kneeboards normally do not have a hook.
Hydroslide's Pop Up Hydro Hook is a superior design and is recommended. Hydroslide uses a spring loaded action to allow easy placement of the rope handle in the holder. While not in use the Hydro-Hook lies completely flat with the deck of the kneeboard. If you fall on your kneeboard, the hook will not catch you or cut you because it is tucked in flat with the deck of the kneeboard. Other boards have the hook permanently molded into the board. Normally these hooks have rounded edges for safety.

|Hydro Hook
|Aquatic Hook
|Kneeboard Hook
|Kneeboard Hook

|Kneeboards WITHOUT the Kneeboard Hook
This video shows you how to use the Kneeboard Hook
This is a highlighly recommended HO product to buy with any kneeboard. The Panno Shock Kneeboard cushion reduces fatigue and cushions the shock on jumps over the wake. It helps people who have bad knees allowing you to ride a kneeboard without bending your knees all the way when you sit on the board. Excellent product. (Featured below at the end of this article).
Hydroslide has a good feature with the shock strap extension. The extension is red in color and comes with most Hydroslide Kneeboards. This allows larger men to ride by adding another 6 in of length to the strap.
Most recreational kneeboarders are made from rotomolded plastic. These plastic kneeboards are widely available and less expensive than competitive kneeboards. The soft, wide edges on plastic kneeboards are best suited for beginners and kids. Plastic is a little easier on you if the board hits you on the head. The design allows for smooth turning and good control for even the novice kneeboarder. The boards are relatively thick and very buoyant, so they help act as a flotation device after a spill. Some plastic kneeboards offer fins to help make turning easier.
Competitive kneeboards are Fiberglass Composite. These boards are higher performance and more durable. Thinner and lighter, they allow riders to make sharper turns, higher jumps, and more tricks. The thin construchtion is not as buoyant as recreational plastic models. Fiberglass kneeboards are very stiff and have some sharp edges. Sharp edges are dangerous for kids and beginners--only experienced riders should ride fiberglass molded kneeboards. Pros are experienced and do not need the kneeboard hook to get up on the board, thus pro knee boards normally do not have a kneeboard hook. The fiberglass models include: HO Agent, HO Joker, Hydroslide Respect, Obrien Ricochet (fiberglass top), Obrien 5150 Rush. The Obrien SOZO is a very high end Pro board with a unique construction, neither fiberglass nor molded plastic.

Sometimes, when I put together one of these "have we had enough of this food trend" posts, it is because I'm personally starting to get sick of seeing a certain ingredient or technique popping up everywhere, and I'm just venting. Sometimes it is because I see the writing on the wall. But not this time.
I love Brussels sprouts, something that 9-year old me would probably slap me in the face for admitting. So, once Brussels sprouts began….ahem….sprouting up on seemingly every menu in town, I was all about it. But, this past weekend we had some friends in from San Francisco who informed me, while digging in to the Brussels sprouts side dish I'd just prepared, that sprouts are on their way out.
"Oh, Brussels sprouts have totally jumped the shark." she said, "Fresh peas are the new hot vegetable. Don't worry; in a year or two, Atlanta will catch up."
I was less offended by the fact that I was just told that the dish I'd just prepared was basically old news, and I didn't even mind the fact that she had taken a jab at Atlanta for being behind the times compared to San Fran. What did bother me was the nagging thought – "What if she is right??"
Now, I expect those of you that don't like Brussels sprouts – which, lets face it, is a veggie that most people either love or hate- then I'm sure this would be welcome news for you. But what about the rest of you? Have Brussels sprouts overstayed their welcome?
Also, for those of you that are still on the sprout-loving train, the dish we were enjoying when my friend broke this terrible news to me was my first attempt at recreating the wonderful Brussels sprouts side dish that I recently reviewed from Paper Plane in Decatur. This was my first go at it, and I think that it needs a little more work to actually duplicate Paper Plane's version, but this was still a crowd pleaser and was quick and easy to throw together in a pinch.
Brussels sprouts with bacon and blueberries (Interpreted from Paper Plane)
Serves: 8
2-3lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1lbs slab bacon, cut into thick chunks
1 pint fresh, ripe blueberries
Salt and fresh ground black pepper
Start by sautéing the bacon chunks over medium-high heat in a large sauté pan until browning slightly and most of the fat has rendered, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove roughly half of the bacon chunks onto a paper towel to drain, and use these to snack on while you cook.
You will likely need to do this in 2 batches. Add half of the Brussels sprouts to the pan, sliced side down, until the sprouts are browned and crispy. Once the sprouts are sufficiently browned and cooked through, add half of the blueberries and toss well, coating in the bacon fact, and cook until the blueberries are warmed through.
Repeat the process with the second half of the sprouts and blueberries, and serve immediately.

AT&T's Moto X and LG G2 now completely free on contract (limited time offer)
Two of AT&T's Android smartphones that usually cost $99.99 on contract - Motorola's Moto X and LG's G2 - can now be snagged for free thanks to a limited time offer.
According to AT&T, the Moto X and G2 deals are good until January 31, being available only online. The offers require new 2-year contract agreements with qualified plans, and don't affect the handsets' prices without contract.
Both the LG G2 and Moto X can be great choices if you're in need of a new Android smartphone. The G2 offers better specs (at least on paper), coming with a 5.2-inch 1080p display, a quad-core 2.26GH Snapdragon 800 processor, and a 13MP rear camera. The Moto X only has a 4.7-inch 720p display and an older generation dual-core Snapdragon processor, but it's customizable (via MotoMaker) and, unlike the G2, it's already running Android 4.4 KitKat.
You can buy any of the two handsets at AT&T as of now by following the source links below. And, while you're there, reading the Terms and Conditions of the new offers (available at the bottom of AT&T's website) will certainly not hurt.

Two awesome phone no one is buying or else they wouldn't be free on this network I guess s4 and note 3 are killing the other android oems in sale here'
7. jaytai0106 (Posts: 1458; Member since: 30 Mar 2011)
Yup that's the problem with average buyers, they only go with big name like Apple iPhone or Samsung Galaxy line. They don't really know too much about LG, Moto, and HTC... It's sad... very sad.
3. GeekMovement (Posts: 1521; Member since: 09 Sep 2011)
Wow, great phones. Is AT&T trying to be more competitive with all the T-Mobile business being thrown in their face? I love how customers win with competition.
4. papss (unregistered)
Wow the g2 is the better deal to me, they both are great at zero dollars..plus the x has 4.4 and the g2 will be getting 4.4 soon. I bet LG puts a great skin on their UI.
5. jphillips63 (Posts: 185; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
Sounds like they are removing excess phones and getting ready for the moto and. LG replacements.
6. phinner (Posts: 1; Member since: 14 Mar 2012)
We checked out the LG2 at T-Mobile a couple of weeks ago (currently AT&T and upgrade eligible but contract ends 1/23/14). We've had BB's and we love our WP's, but we're looking at maybe trying Android out, too. We looked at the S4 and the LG2 and the LG2, by far, is the better choice in our opinion. It just seems much smoother, better built, and more responsive than the S4. Even with AT&T giving the phone for $0, I'm still looking at moving to T-Mobile - AT&T just wants too much $$$ for nothing really more. We've had Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint (before iPhone fiasco) and have never had any problems with service or coverage where we live. I'm sure T-Mobile will be the same. Our daughter's had it and everyone we know seems to have good coverage. So, it basically boils down to my dollar. AT&T should maybe think about dropping their monthly price rather than trying to entice customers with free phones.

Go big, or go home sans a gold medal
Olympic snowboarder Shaun White did not fulfill his goal at Sochi. He made the decision to bow out of the Slope Style event—and play it safe—so he could medal in the Half Pipe. It didn't happen. He talked a good game, but when it really mattered for him to just charge the whole deal and lay it all on the line, he balked. Then, the young Turks smelled fear, and they went big. It's the natural order of things.
Shaun White got smacked by the mountain gods at Sochi this week. Not only did he not get to the podium, but he also lost some cred. He was humbled not by the less than perfect half pipe conditions, but by life itself, which is a road of many twists and turns–and pitfalls. As much as we mortals desire to control outcomes, it's life as it is, that has the final say. Shaun White made it known months back that he had some "new things," to show us at Sochi. He practiced at his private half pipe in some backcountry hideout, accessible only by heliocopter–sexy stuff. He would compete in 2 different events and wanted to medal in both–heady stuff, ambitious stuff.
(Mountains, gravity, age, and a Pu Pu Platter of other life events can trip us up; we're all on a slippery slope. At the tender age of fifty I took up snowboarding; got worked like a pack mule, busted up my shoulder, my wrists and knees. My participation in the sport was guarded, because of the whole work and responsible parent thing. I was not a pro, but just a shmo named Joe jamming down the hills having a blast! Hell, I even pushed myself, and charged some Black Diamonds at Bretton Woods. Damn, I loved that sport; however, my body was showing wear. A serious fall on the ice at Waterville Valley, was my cue to just stick with sailing, bike riding and forklift driving; humbling stuff–life stuff.)
Shaun White is a very big Kahuna in this sport, which evolved from a cadre of outliers, designers, and boundary breaking characters. Jake Burton was first allowed to ride Mt. Stratton, when other areas forbid this maverick on their hills. Undaunted, Burton pushed forward. Snowboarding evolved from this humble beginning; it was subversive, an outlaw thing. Shaun came into this sport when it was all about breaking down the walls of convention and throwing down. At Sochi, when it all boiled down to going big, and risking it all, he chose to hold back.(Maybe his handlers made the dicision.)
There is no doubt of Shaun White's athleticism and skill; however, at Sochi, his first run went awry. Then, life happened in one second, and he hit the lip of the pipe. His second run had its moments, but failed to impress the judges. (I still can't believe his board didn't snap; way to go Jake Burton!) The young Turks observed this little slice of life's slippery slope in real time. Moreover, in their heart of hearts, these guys knew the competitive paridigm had just shifted, and it was now their time. It was life as it was supposed to be. At Sochi this year, it was what it was, for Olympian Shaun White–life stuff.

Navios SPAC Strikes $458M Tanker Deal
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- A blank-check company sponsored by the Greek shipping group Navios Holdings (NM) finally has a business to go along with its incorporation, after announcing an agreement on Thursday to purchase 13 tanker ships for nearly half a billion dollars.
Eleven of the ships are so-called "product" tankers, meaning they carry refined products such as gasoline or jet fuel. The other two are chemical tankers.
Called Navios Acquisition (NNA), the company is a SPAC (short for special-purpose acquisition company), which first floated shares to the public in June 2008, not long after the New York Stock Exchange allowed such vehicles to list. (SPACs have a dubious history, with many cases of shareholder fraud, and for years only the American Stock Exchange would allow them.)
Several years ago, before the crash and the recession, SPACs enjoyed a boom, with investors lining up to sponsor them. After raising money through a public offering, SPACs must then search for a business to acquire, often taking private companies public through the back door.Navios Holdings itself -- and its CEO, Angeliki Frangou, one of the few women in corner offices in the shipping industry -- is no stranger to the special-purpose vehicle. A SPAC sponsored by Frangou in the early 2000s acquired Navios and brought it public. One of the oldest and most venerable names in dry bulk, Navios has existed since the 1950s, when it was the ocean-going shipping arm of U.S. Steel. Generally, SPACs have about a two-year window within which to do a deal. If the sponsors don't meet this self-imposed deadline, the vehicles dissolve and shareholders theoretically get back their money. Navios Acquistion was therefore running up against its own deal deadline. According to SEC documents, the SPAC's CEO, Angeliki Frangou, who also heads up Navios Holdings and its sister Navios Partners (NMM), was approached in February by a bank looking to help sell nine tankers then on order at shipyards. Most likely, the group or groups who had placed the orders for these ships had run into financial trouble, and could no longer afford them. Navios then bought four other ships, and an option to buy two more, from a series of other sources. The sellers weren't identified. But in order to facilitate the deals and obtain better terms on its acquisition financing, Navios Holdings first acquired the ships.

went from wearing glasses all the time to tested
20/20 vision*."
Pat Boll, Hartford, CT
Everything in The Program for Better Vision is based on a primary law about vision that governs the quality of your eyesight. Learn - and use - this vision law and you'll get to the core of your vision problems. Without this law, you address only the symptoms - but never the actual causes.
That's why you can get better results - in less time
and with less effort - because everything in The Program
for Better Vision is built around this vision law.
Because The Program for Better Vision is the ONLY program
built around this law of vision and because this Program
is so substantially different from others that are just eye
exercises, The Program accomplishes two vital things for
1. It gives you eye exercises that are much more effective.
2. It takes you beyond those eye exercises so you can
heal the underlying causes of your vision problems.
"I have examined
many patients who have used the Cambridge Institute's Program
for Better Vision. For any person
interested in improving their vision, this
program is a must to try. "
Richard S. Kavner
Doctor of Optometry
New York, NY
Even though
there's more to improving your vision than only eye
exercises, The Program's eye exercises are better for
three reasons - because they are built around the fundamental
law of vision:
Sophisticated Selection Process
Powerful Progression
Comprehensive Design
Sophisticated Selection Process
I've carefully selected the exercises you'll find in
The Program for Better Vision based on my experience
with more than 250,000 people since 1977, the year I
founded the Cambridge Institute for Better Vision.
Not only have I picked the best of the rest, The Program
for Better Vision also contains powerful exercises that
I've developed over the years.
Exercises that you won't find anywhere else.
For example, there's one exercise you'll find in The
Program for Better Vision that produces moments of clearer
vision for nearly everyone the first time they try it.
You spend less time every day with The Program -
and see more results - because the quality of the exercises
is greater than other "thrown together" things
you might find.
With The Program for Better Vision you're never spending
more than 15-20 minutes a day devoted to your eyesight.
Compare that to others that demand 30 to 40 minutes
of your time each day. Some even tell you to practice
for an hour!
Maybe you do have to practice that long when the exercises
are not well thought out, not as effective as they could
be, and not built on the vital eyesight principle you'll
find in The Program for Better Vision.
Powerful Progression
The second difference you'll experience with the eye
exercises in The Program for Better Vision is the power
of their sequence.
When properly ordered - as
they are in The Program for Better Vision - the effects
of the eye exercises build and multiply and you see
changes faster.
The Program for Better Vision is as effective as it
is partly for this reason: it tells you exactly which
exercises to do each day, in the right sequence and for
the right amount of time.
Just follow along with the Audio Vision Session for
that day (choose the format you prefer - CD, audiotape
or MP3) and you can be sure that you are doing the right
exercises in the right way and for the right amount of
"The Program
for Better Vision is like owning your
own private vision seminar … It
offers excellent step-by-step instructions
and materials that encourage you to follow
through … an appealing way to
improve vision."
Natural Health magazine
"I was very impressed with The Program for Better Vision. Once patients see the improvements they make with your program, many are motivated to continue ... "
Dr. Stanley A. Applebaum, F.C.O.V.D.
Bethesda MD
Comprehensive Design
Seeing clearly is the "last domino in the chain."
Did you know that before a person has trouble seeing clearly,
there are other, more basic and underlying visual skills
that have already gone out of balance?
Skills like how the eyes work together, how the brain coordinates
the two eyes, and how the brain balances the images from
the central and peripheral areas of vision.
Unless you improve these skills first - like you easily
do with The Program for Better Vision - eye exercises alone
aren't going to work very well.
Improve these skills with what you learn in The Program
for Better Vision and you'll experience for yourself how
much more productive eye exercises could be.
Why settle for any random set of eye exercises when you
can benefit most from the comprehensive, total approach that
you can find only in The Program for Better Vision?
That's why so many people who use The Program for Better
Vision say:
It's the easiest to follow.
It's the easiest to understand.
It's the easiest to do.
"Unlike others,
The Program for Better Vision attempts to address
the underlying cause of imperfect vision."
- Vegetarian
The exercises are as powerful and effective as they are
because the entire Program for Better Vision is built around
the fundamental truth about the eyes and about how vision
The Vision Secret
Like many other truths, the eyesight principle behind The
Program for Better Vision can be stated simply. It might
even sound plainly obvious when you hear it. But don't let
that fool you.
Understand this principle and it will make a phenomenal
difference in the way you think about your eyesight, in the
way you care for your eyes and in the way that you go about
improving your vision.
Fully apply this principle to your own eyesight - as The
Program for Better Vision shows you how - and you will see
how much more quickly your eyesight changes and how much
more profound the changes are.
You Can't Separate
Your Eyesight
The Rest of Your Self
Your eyes do not exist in isolation.
How clearly you see is influenced by much more than only
the muscles in and around the eyes.
In fact, the muscles around your eyes are 200 times stronger
than they need to be. It's a myth that your eyes are weak
and that you have to make the muscles stronger in order to
see better without glasses or contacts.
(That's only one of the Vision Myths that can get people
off track in their desire to see better. I explode them all
in The Program for Better Vision.)
* 25% of the oxygen that you take in with every breath goes directly to your visual system
* Nearly 1/3 of your food intake goes to nourish your visual system
* 90% of what you learn about the world around you comes through your eyes
Your eyesight can be affected by tension and imbalance that
exists anywhere in your body. Surprisingly enough, research
shows that different patterns of body tension are associated
with different eye problems.
With The Program for Better Vision you'll learn which patterns
are connected to nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism
- and how to release their effects from your vision.
Of course, you'll also learn about the vitamins and minerals
that are essential for good vision. I interviewed some of
the top eye doctors who specialize in nutrition and vision
just so you could benefit from their expertise.
(You'll be surprised what you find out. Remember, you can't
separate your eyes from the rest of your body!)
Your eyesight
reflects your mind, your attitudes and your perspective.
What happens when you look right at something - the missing
scissors or keys, for instance - and fail to see it?
What was going on when you drove to a particular place and
then couldn't recall which route you followed, or what you
saw along the way?
The eyes may not 'see' at all when the mind is preoccupied.
Even your imagination plays a role in improving your eyesight.
Did you know that when you imagine looking into the distance,
with your eyes closed, your eyes actually change focus, as
if they are looking into the distance?
The Program for Better Vision shows you how to easily use
this connection between your mind and eyes to help your sight
"Blind with rage," "What you don't see won't
hurt you," "There's something I don't want to see." For
many, these feelings and attitudes are directly related to
vision problems.
In a way that you won't find anywhere else, The Program
shows you how to easily and naturally release any inner barriers
to seeing clearly.
The Program for Better Vision takes you beyond eye exercises
alone because it has to. Your eyesight is affected by so
much more than just eye muscles.
Make Significant Changes in Your Life for
the Better."
PROGRAM FOR BETTER VISION not only can help improve one's
eye sight, but by helping you understand the
connection between how you perceive the world
and your visual condition it will make significant
changes in your life for the better."
Marc Grossman O.D. L.Ac.
Author of Magic
Eye: Beyond 3D, Greater Vision,
and Natural
Eye Care: An Encyclopedia
The Program shows you how you
to use the full power and force of your mind and body's
desire to heal itself and apply that power to your vision.
With The Program you get to the source of your vision. And
when you get to the source, the changes you make come more
quickly and with greater impact.
You can expect better - and more profound - results - in
less time - with less effort - because The Program for Better
Vision guides you step by step, in an easy to follow, easy
to use system that brings together everything necessary for
your vision to change.
"Since completing
The Program, I enjoy much more color, depth
perception, and delineation of patterns.
I just finished my first book without glasses
and without undue effort. I read on a sun
deck outside - my family was very impressed."
- Mardelle
McClure, Lake Jackson , TX
During each and every day, you're always using your eyes
- whatever else you might be doing.
With The Program for Better Vision you learn how to use
your eyes properly, and you'll be reducing visual stress
and changing visual imbalances virtually every minute of
the day.
In addition, I'll show you which of the techniques you can
do during the day that don't take any extra time at all -
just your awareness.
Too many of us are only focused on WHAT we see, if we even
think about seeing at all.
When you put a little awareness into HOW you see and how
you use your eyes - in other words, become more conscious
of your vision in the ways that I describe in The Program
for Better Vision - amazing things can - and do! - happen.
At a Price Everyone Can Afford.
Thousands of people have spent $300 to attend my Vision Seminars. But it would be a pity if there was a single person out there who stops him or herself from seeing better because of the cost.
The truth is that - at this economical price - there is
only one thing standing between you and your better vision.
That's right. YOU!
If you're chained to your glasses or contacts...if you can't
imagine seeing without them...if you think it could work
for everyone else, but not for you...then your eyes will
never get to see what so many others have.
With The Program for Better Vision you can do something
good for your eyes - and your self.
Consider the cost of doing nothing:
Vision that continues to get worse, glasses or contacts
that get stronger and stronger (and more expensive), deteriorating
vision that makes you a potential candidate for more serious
problems in the future.
Your eyesight is precious. Do something good for your eyes
today - use The Program for Better Vision.

Box of New Hope
By Regina Schrambling (as
appeared on www.TakeGreatPictures.com 2/07)
people who knew Jonny Krist from diaper days watched
him grow
up on film. Every Christmas his father, renowned
travel photographer Bob Krist, and his creatively
energetic mother, Peggy, mailed out a black-and-white
of "the
three wise guys" in lieu of traditional Hallmark
cards, with Jonny and his older brothers Matthew
and Brian posing as Jersey boys in shades and various
of cool. Year one he was being towed in a wagon;
by his teens he could play any instrument he was
Jonny died at
19, his promise and vibrancy wiped out in a car accident
very close to their home in New Hope,
Pa., on May 31, 2006. He was a prodigiously talented
musi-cian whose band had gigs in New York City, a
charmer who was president of his high school, a globally
environmentally aware dreamer who worked on such
projects as digging wells in driest Africa. And his
family is determined to keep his aura alive through
the medium they know best.
As a way of partially
underwriting the many projects of the Jonathan D. Krist
Foundation they immediately
established, the Krists tapped into a network of
contacts to print and package images of their son's happiest
hometown in what they are calling a "Box of (New)
Hope." Money from the sale of the 12-pack of
blank cards will be used to pay for bigger "boxes
of hope" containing anything from saxophones
to soccer balls, anything that will benefit others
who can carry on the Jonny spirit. To make the project
even more worthy of a son who saw ways to improve things
wherever he looked, his high school's Future
Business Leaders of America chapter has been enlisted
to come up with out-of-the-box ideas for taking the
cards to a wider audience.
As Peggy Krist
recounts, in late 2005, she and Jonny spent a weekend
gathering un-used instruments and
musical supplies in their basement and around town
to box up
to send to a music-hungry charter school, KIPP
Gaston College Preparatory in Gaston, N.C., that his
Matt knew needed help. They did so well collecting
that there was no room in the car for Jonny, and
Peggy drove south alone to drop off the instruments
and change
a few lives. That in turn rebooted the way she
thought about charity. "We're not Bill Gates," she
said, but she realized that "in tiny little things
you could make a dif-ference." A mere $4,000
can support the entire jazz band program at the
school for a full year.
She and her husband
were in Fiji not long after the shock of Jonny's
death when she had a similar epiphany. While Bob was
teaching on a Lindblad travel
tour, they dropped in on the tiny impoverished
island of Bega, where young boys had more adrenaline
equipment to put into practice for a baseball
tournament, and they stopped on the next big island
to pack up
a box of sporting goods to be shipped to the
team. It was quick, it was immediate, and it had to
a difference.
While Bob was
teaching at the Maine Photo Workshops in Rockport last
summer, Peggy grilled everyone
she met there about fund-raising ideas for the
Already contributions were flowing in, including
$5,000 from Jonny's grandfather, who lives
on the Krist compound on the site of an old mill
in New Hope. That
gesture became the first scholarship, awarded
to a senior heading for a local college who would
have had
a hard time paying her own way. But to give away
money, you need to keep raising money, and how
to do that?
Because Bob is
such a prolific photographer and Peggy is such a boundlessly
optimistic promoter,
they ran
with the notion of selling photographic note
cards of, and in, New Hope. Bob, after all, had
resources in the files of photos shot for his
self-published book on the almost too-picturesque
town. Rather
selling them individually, they chose to offer
12 in a clear package, to be labeled "A Box of (New)
Hope." Peggy thought of enlisting printing help
from Cardthartic, a company in Champaign, Ill., that
had bought Krist images for its line in the past. After
all, that business was started by Jodee Stevens in
the wake of her father's death when she
noticed the commercial condolences were not much
solace (www.cardthartic.com).
Steve Wolock of River Graphics in Lambertville,
N.J. designed the cards. The Krists were able
to tap into
the end of a run on another printing job to get
the cards out by mid-December.
The project was
done quickly, which left little time for aesthetic
angst, Bob admits. The six
photos in
the box were chosen not just because they are
quintessential New Hope images but because they
happened to be
among the few verticals shot from his book, Impressions
of Bucks County. They comprise electric fall
foliage against
a red barn, a steam engine on the New Hope and
Railroad, a mule-drawn boat on the Dela-ware
Canal, a bicyclist along the Delaware River towpath,
historic Perry Man-sion/museum with a flock of
geese out front
and the American flag whipping in the wind on
a snow-covered antique buckboard. Each captures
sense of history
and a sense of place in a town with roots dating
from the early 1700s.
The Box of New Hope is just a small piece of
the foundation, which the Krists set up with
the help
of a family friend,
local lawyer Peter Reiss, and whose board is
made up of Jonny's brothers, Matthew and Brian, and fellow
students, Brandon Grossman, Rose Gutekunst, David Aaronson
and Jared Mancuso. Two scholarships will be given each
year, one to a New Hope student and another to a student
in the Bronx. The "Bridge Program" will
bring in speakers and artists to enhance studies
in music and the humanities at New Hope Solebury
and Trenton Central High School in NJ.
But the boxes
may prove to be the most hands-on, user-friendly program.
The school's shop teacher, Craig Balmer,
is building a suggestion box to collect ideas for worthy
beneficiaries to insure Jonny's gifts keep on
giving. And by focusing on both the future and the
here-and-now, the Krists are working to overcome savage
grief. As Peggy notes, there is a saying that "you
don't heal from the loss of a loved one because
time passes; you heal because of what you do with the
time." By using hers to connect with other people
and build the foundation, she has found, she can "get
out there and look for him, just to find he is all
around us."
Boxes of New
Hope can be purchsed for $15 each. Call Peggy at 215-862-4828
or purchase in New Hope at Farley's Bookshop or New
Hope Photo.

I just wanted to send out a big thank you to everyone who has ever posted or answered a post on this message board. Although i never actually wrote a post on here, I have relied on this message board for the entire time I was exclusively pumping. I just officially hung up my horns after making it to our one year mark. I found this site just weeks into breastfeeding. I was miserable and close to quitting when I found this site and realized that exclusively pumping was even an option. Our life completely changed when I made the decision to exclusively pump. It was the right decision for me and my son.
I always found all the answers to my questions on this message board without ever having to ask. However I will continue to check in here from time to time to see if there's any way I can assist anyone else. This message board literally changed my way of life for me and my son. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!!

2014 Walkathon – Information and Donor Form
Come Walk with Us…
Each year there are millions of amputees nationwide that acknowledge the month of April as being Limb Loss Awareness month. There are also 28 million people that are at risk for an amputation. In order to raise the general publics' awareness, The New England Amputee Association is planning our annual Limb Loss Awareness Walk-a-thon. Our group will be teaming up with Orchard Hill Athletic Club 100 Duval St. in Lancaster, Ma. for the use of their inside walking track for this event. The athletic club has graciously let us use their facility on Sunday April 27 from noon to 3pm. Powered by strength, courage, and support our group is hoping to get as many in the community involved as possible. A portion of our proceeds will sponsor a child to attend a unique camp for children with limb loss, "Camp No Limits" in Maine. Limb loss does not need to stand in the way of all kinds of athletic activities. Remember, we can go "from limb loss to limitless." We hope that all will come and participate.
See flyer and Donor Information Card for more information.

Don't go with what ppl say about the brands, try on the boots and it will decide for you!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

No other boot I have EVER owned has even come close to being able to keep my heel in place like Ride boots. And these were not a disappointment! They are awesome all mountain, all terrain boots. I have had the Boa Coiler system previously in other boots so this was not a change for me. I love the Boa Coiler system. I have had sales people at retail stores say that it is a garbage system, but I prefer this to laces. I could never get my laces tight enough, or loose enough, and with this system it is so much faster and easier to get the right tightness for what you want. I had read the reviews on these boots prior to ordering and most of them stated the boots run small, which made sense because my previous Ride boots had been a full size larger than I usually wear. I took the advice and ended up having to return for my true size. I personally do not feel these boots run small or large. They fit exactly how they should, for my foot at least. And they are out of the box comfortable, no breaking in required! First time I used them I was in them all day and my feet were completely fine. I HIGHLY recommend these, and all, Ride boots.
Tight all day
By Bobbie
from Stowe,VT
I mostly ride in the woods or on mildly groomed trails. I love moguls too. These boots do great everywhere on the mountain. They keep tight all day- which is exactly what I was hoping for.
great product

Total home improvement product sales in the U.S. reached $271 billion in 2004, the highest on record since the Home Improvement Research Institute (HIRI) began tracking this data in 1984. Spending increased 12.6 percent from 2003 levels.
Home buying and selling is a key driver of home improvement activities, and unfortunately, so are natural disasters. Last year's hurricanes in Florida are estimated to have added a full percentage point to 2004's growth rate.
HIRI has raised its estimate for home improvement product purchasing in 2005 to $287 billion, from a prior estimate of $281 billion issued in November 2004. Consumers are responsible for about three-quarters of home improvement product purchases, and HIRI expects gains of 5.9 percent in 2005 product sales to consumers. Sales to home improvement professionals are expected to increase 5.3 percent. The increased estimate is based on residential housing activity and other economic factors, and did not consider forecasts for the 2005 hurricane season.
The long-term outlook for the home improvement products market remains strong, although HIRI's most recent quarterly Home Improvement Consumer Project Activity & Sentiment Report showed some softening in planned remodeling for the second quarter. Total market growth for home improvement products sales from 2006-2009 is projected to average 4.6 percent per year in current dollars.
Total major household appliances sales to consumers for 2004 were $18.4 billion, up about 8.2 percent from 2003. HIRI forecasts about $19 billion in total major household appliances sales for 2005.

Caption: When a child with autism copies the actions of an adult, he or she is likely to omit anything "silly" about what they've just seen. In contrast, typically developing children will go out of their way to repeat each and every element of the behavior even as they may realize that parts of it don't make any sense.

[Editor's note: A previous version of this story incorrectly referred to same-sex marriages in some places. Hawaii has only legalized civil unions.]
The new year could bring Hawaii hotels a wave of same-sex civil union ceremonies.
At least, that's what they're hoping.
Many hotels in Maui especially, where there were 5,900 non-residential marriages in 2010, are specifically targeting same-sex couples now that a law went into effect Jan. 1 legalizing civil unions.
The Grand Wailea, for instance, is offering free iPads to the first 10 couples who sign up for civil union packages, according to The Maui News.
ALSO ONLINE: Gay marriage plea top political video of 2011
A recent University of California-Los Angeles, study found that Iowa's legalization of gay marriage in 2009 resulted in as much as $12 million additional tourism dollars, The Maui News pointed out.
Maui Hotel & Lodging Association Executive Director Carol Reimann told Hotel Check-in that Maui has the most number of visitor marriages of any of the Hawaiian islands, and expects to see more same-sex civil unions.
"We want to service all segments of the community, and we welcome everyone," she told Hotel Check-in.
READ MORE: Gay marriage law set to boost New York tourism
That said, she pointed out that same-sex unions in Hawaii won't be recognized in home states that don't have the same civil union law. "But I think a lot of people appreciate the fact that Hawaii recognizes it," she said.
That hasn't stopped hotels in New York from also catering to same-sex couples since same sex marriage became legal there in July.
At The Muse Hotel, for instance, concierge Marc Camacho got ordained as a minister shortly after the law went into place. It took him about a week of studies, which the company supported by giving him time during the work day.
"It feels good knowing this is one of the things we can offer" guests, he said.
On Dec. 23, he performed his first ceremony when two California residents checked into The Muse. They had had a ceremony planned in California before Proposition 8 was overturned, no longer making same-sex unions legal. They went ahead with the ceremony but wanted to make it legal in New York.
Camacho arranged all the details, re-creating their July California ceremony, down to the same German chocolate cake and cocktails.
Camacho said the hotel is getting more calls and e-mails from other same-sex couples looking to have their weddings or receptions there.
"This is getting us more excited to go down that route," he said.

Center Pivot engineering attaches the riser near the center of the limbs, so the limb tips move less mass weight and distance. This creates minimal overall limb movement and the result is refined stability unlike anything experienced before.
Resets the safety any time a bolt isn't present in the bow. This eliminates the possibility of accidental dry-fire as well as improving safety by automatically resetting the safety any time a bolt is removed from the bow.
Pistol foregrip is designed to keep your fingers from entering the string flight path. Please refer to Owner's Manual for safety guidelines. It attaches to the Weaver rail and is adjustable and/or removable.
Military standard Weaver rail Allows pistol grip adjustment to fit each individual's optimum shooting position, as well as after market accessories like flashlights, bipods and laser sights.
Machined 6061-T6 Aluminum Riser
Optional Multiple Reticle Red-Dot 1x30 Scope. This scope is compatible with all Stryker models or any weaver rail mount. The scope rail is fixed, for improved repeatability/durability. Its position and height is optimized both ergonomically and ballistically.
Rubber prongs grab the string to lessen string movement at the release, resulting in a significantly quieter shot.
Redesigned specifically for the StrykeForce, these cams are reinforced to allow for a higher draw weight and let-off. Binary cams are twin cams that function as a single unit enslaved to each other, automatically correcting any imbalances in the system (limb deflections, varying cable lengths, etc). The result is absolute synchronization, ensuring the most consistent, most efficient, and most accurate shot possible.
Teflon coated string hook reduces serving wear for extended string durability.
Crisp, no-creep trigger pull.
Included EZ2DRAW cocking aid reduces pull by 50%.
Optional accessory package includes: Multiple Reticle Red-Dot 1x30 Scope, Four Matched 425 Grain Bolts, Sling, and Hip Quiver.
Laminated limb technology designed to withstand greater cable tension and higher loads meaning more kinetic energy at point of impact.
Also available in Next® FLX™ Digital.

A recent U.K. study found that people who are addicted to the Internet are more depressed; they also spend more time on sites that serve as a replacement for real-life socializing. Meanwhile, research from Carnegie Mellon University finds that people who frequently use the Internet to look up health-related information have slightly higher rates of depression, whereas people who use the Internet to communicate with friends and family have slightly lower rates. The researchers' theory: Using the Internet to surf for health information may lead to "increased rumination, unnecessary alarm, or over-attention to health problems", which can lead to depression.

Top-ranked recipe named "Easy-Glazed Pearl Onions"
Try this Easy-Glazed Pearl Onions recipe, or contribute your own. "Onions" and "Savory Side Dish" are two tags used to describe Easy-Glazed Pearl Onions.
"I made this with 20 oz of fresh pearl onions, brown sugar and distilled balsamic vinegar, and vegetable stock instead of beef stock to include my vegetarian son-in-law. There were no leftovers. Yum! "- theo48
RINSE THE ONIONS IN A strainer, just to separate them and remove extra ice. Blot them on paper towels. In a large, heavy skillet, heat the oil over high heat.
When it is hot, add the onions and sugar and continue cooking for 5 minutes, shaking often, until the onions are lightly colored.
Add the beef stock, adjust the heat to medium- high, and continue cooking until the liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, cook for 30 seconds, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

Set during the height of World War I in January 1918, Goshawk Squadron follows the misfortunes of a British flight squadron on the Western Front. For Stanley Woolley, commanding officer of Goshawk Squadron, the romance of chivalry in the clouds is just a myth. The code he drums into his men is simple and savage: shoot the enemy in the back before he knows you're there. Even so, he believes the whole squadron will be dead within three months. A monumental work at the time of its original release, Booker-shortlisted Goshawk Squadron is now viewed as a classic in the mode of Catch 22. Wry, brutal, cynical and hilarious, the men of Robinson's squadron are themselves an embodiment of the maddening contradictions of war: as much a refined troop of British gentleman as they are a viscous band of brothers hell-bent on staying alive and winning the war.
About the Author
Derek Robinson is a policeman's son from a council estate who crossed the class barrier by going to Cambridge, where he got a degree in history and learned to write badly. A stint in advertising in London and New York changed that, and in 1971 he finally got it right when Goshawk Squadron was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. His equally acclaimed trilogy of World War Two novels are Piece of Cake, A Good Clean Fight and Damned Good Show. His other novels include The Eldorado Network and Artillery of Lies.
Derek Robinson has also published non-fiction on a variety of themes, from the laws of rugby to the nuclear tests on Christmas Island in the 1950s. His most recent book is Invasion, 1940, a revisionist history of the Battle of Britain. He lives in Bristol.

Adam Goldberg, 2 Days in Paris
Since his breakthrough role as a nebbish teen in Dazed and Confused, Adam Goldberg has worked steadily in both television and movies, including memorable turns in Saving Private Ryan and A Beautiful Mind. Goldberg can currently be seen in theaters opposite Julie Delpy (Before Sunrise, Broken Flowers) in the relationship comedy 2 Days in Paris. Meanwhile, he's been hilariously slimy on the small screen as Entourage's wannabe movie producer Nick Rubenstein. The Los Angeles native gave TVGuide.com a bit of background on his Parisian production, as well as some insight on playing a Hollywood low-life.

Stage Left's "Fisherman" ends up a tall fish tale
THEATER REVIEW: "The Fisherman" by Stage Left Theatre ★★ ... The danger of writing a play about fishermen is that the waters offer a tantalizing array of metaphors. There are hooks, from which words can dangle and fish can flail, or one can compare a man to a carp. Or maybe a guppy.

About Judy Jenks
Started out with the usual popular cameras while growing up- the instamatics, the 110s, the polaroids ... then by luck was able to acquire a Nikon FM series camera with lenses and gadgets- most of which I did not know their purpose at the time- but that camera became my constant companion. A little positive feedback early on from a professional photographer encouraged me to keep developing my skills. I hung on to that camera until it became harder and harder to find venues to process film, then took the plunge into digital with a Canon 20D, and as such, have developed an interesting relationship with electronics.
Lately, problems with my eyesight is forcing me to often abandon the manual settings and rely more on the automatic features, which in turn requires me to learn post processing programs. Clicking the shutter is just the beginning.
Really, I'm not that old, but the world changes much faster nowadays and one has to constantly keep up or get left behind. Bring it on.
My other creative venue is writing, and I have 3 books in the air waiting for me to give them a place to land. Hopefully within the next couple years they will be ready (fingers crossed).
