Join Paid Clinical Trials ...
PaidClinicalTrials.org is a registry of compensated and uncompensated, federally and privately supported clinical trials conducted in the United States and around the world. Here you will find information about a trial's purpose, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers.
Clinical Trial Seekers - PCT is a public service, sponsor supported, clinical trial database that may be accessed by the general public at no charge in accordance with our terms of service use.
Clinical trials are added and removed each day on a 30 day rotation. For accuracy - We only list clinical trials that have been reported to these government agencies in the last 30 days:

Tips for Finding Clinical Trials
One of the toughest and most-time consuming parts for medical research staff conducting the clinical trials is actually finding volunteers willing to participate. Research staff are looking for you! There are numerous ways to identify clinical trials looking for healthy human volunteers.
Trials are actively conducted by hospitals, universities, foundations, and contract research organizations (CROs, firms that conduct studies for big pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies). According to CISCRP, nearly 40% of these clinical trials can be learned about through media such as tv, radio, or printed ads. While finding studies through tv and radio ads might be difficult, you can actively scour the wanted section of your local newspapers to find trials.
Most local research clinics run ads for volunteers in the local newspaper, employment papers, on TV, and on the radio. They also post ads on Craigslist and on their own websites. Call them up as soon as you see something of interest. If the study is no longer recruiting volunteers, they might enter you in there database for future study participation.
Look up local research clinics in your phone book and ask (a) if they have any studies openly recruiting healthy volunteers and (b) if you could be entered into their volunteer database.
College campuses and major universities with research hospitals are also great places to find clinical trial. Schools of medicine, dentistry, and nursing, along with departments of psychology, sociology, and communications, at local universities, are always looking for willing volunteers for their experiments. Perform an internet search for the hospitals, schools, and departments on nearby campuses, then look for any section concerning clinical trials or research volunteers.
When searching for clinical trials on our website you will click on a Clinical Trial Information sheet like this example. Example Information Sheet. The first thing you should do is to see if the clinical trial is right for you. You can do this by quickly scanning the headings of the information sheet. These headings are highlighted on the left by blue icons as follows:
>> Status of the Clinical Trial (This will appear at the top in red or green)
Purpose - This will briefly let you know about the clinical trial and how it is conducted.
Eligibility - This tells you age, gender and health status information. If you do not meet these eligibility requirement you should move to another clinical trial.
Contacts and Locations - This will list the locations the clinical trial is being conducted and it will usually list the contact person to call. Note - Even if your location is not listed you should call the clinical trial investigator. Sometimes their locations have not been updated or they are willing to pay time and travel expenses.
More Information - This will often give alternative contact people and other pertinent information about the trial.
These headings appear on the left side of the information sheet and are fairly self explanatory. Doing this will help you to quickly evaluate if the clinical trial is right for you.
Searching Tips
Check the Conditions Category - If you only search the "Locations" directory you are missing out on a lot of clinical trials. Trials that are listed by "Condition" usually have multiple locations and can add new locations as the study moves forward.
Register Your Profile with us. - You can post your location and condition in our personal clinical trials directory for FREE. This helps the research recruiters find you when the right trial becomes available. Register for Clinical Trials Here.
Call the Clinical Trial Recruiters - At the bottom of all the information sheets you will see a "Contact Information" heading. Many clinical trials can be conducted in remote locations and the recruiters can help you.

Post soccer knocks off No. 1 team in Division II
WATERBURY -- The Post University men's soccer team has won some huge games over the past three seasons, but the Eagles topped them all Wednesday.
All-America senior forward Joe Baccielo scored a spectacular goal with 3:51 left to play to lead the No. 15-ranked Eagles to a 1-0 victory over the top-ranked NCAA Division II team in the country, Long Island University-Post, at LaMoy Field in Waterbury. It was Post's first win ever over a No. 1 team.
"Today was just about actually proving that we are one of the best teams in the country," Baccielo said. "By beating the No. 1 team, we obviously not only proved it to ourselves but proved it to everyone else. It is definitely validation."
Thanks to outstanding defense from the back four of Kevin Ipina, Ani Lekaj, Krzysztof Giezek and Jon Dzurilla and midfielder Jean Louis Cadet, Post managed to play LIU-Post even for the first 85 minutes.
LIU-Post (14-1) went into the game undefeated and ranked No. 1 not only in the Division II polls but also in scoring, led by the nation's top scorer, Eivind Austboe. Post (12-1-1), however, was ranked No. 3 in the country defensively and up to the task.
Lekaj did an outstanding job marking Austboe and limiting his chances.
"We take a team defensive approach, but our four guys in back and our goalkeeper,
See POST, Page 9B
Andre Lindsay, are fantastic," Post coach Ted Haley said. "They battled all day. Andre needs to come up with one or two big saves each game, and he did that again today. He made a big save in a key moment that was exactly what we needed"
Lindsay finished with a season-high eight saves and his eighth shutout of the year. He made his biggest stop with nine minutes to play on a dive for a shot by Austboe to the left side of the goal.
"It was an open game, end to end," Haley said. "We both had opportunities. It was fun to be a part of. It was fun to watch."
Bacciello created his own opportunity on the fly as he used his superior pace to beat a defender to a ball.
"Honestly, when I got that ball I had no idea what I was going to do," Baccielo said. "We were pinned back for a good five, 10 minutes, and Jose Monterozza poked the ball out to me. When I picked the ball up, I just said to myself, 'Go make something happen.' It was the best goal that I ever scored."
It was a goal, Haley said, that few college players in the country could have scored. Baccielo took on two defensive backs and then the opposing goalie, Marco Jorgensen. He beat the first defender to the ball and went by him.
"He got into a dangerous situation, pushed it through the second center back's legs and then scored low inside the right post," Haley said. "It was a tremendous goal, something you don't see often in college soccer. It was an act of brilliance. It was magic."
The win was easily the biggest in the history of a Post team that over the previous two seasons had won the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference regular season twice and qualified for the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history. Earlier this season, Post recorded its first win over a ranked opponent with a 1-0 win at No. 7 Southern New Hampshire and later moved into the Top 10 in the rankings for the first time ever.
"To beat the No. 1 team in the country is certainly the biggest win we have had," said Haley. "It was fantastic. We will make sure we celebrate and enjoy this, but in the big picture we really want to do special things in the postseason."

I had been wanting to go and see Cawdor Castle for a few years, but not had the excuse to just get on with it and go until I heard that The Antiques Roadshow were going to be there! To my knowledge, they don't visit that many locations in Scotland, at least during each year's filming. I do love watching other people's treasures – especially family stories.
We decided we didn't really have anything we wanted valued, so packed ourselves off to the station to get the train to Nairn, outside of Inverness – which is the closest to Cawdor and the castle. For June it wasn't really warm and the weather was pretty atrocious, as was the non-existent bus service available to Cawdor, but hey-ho we got there and immediately loved the castle and gardens.
The castle is beautiful, and reminded me a little of Fraser, the rooms are also really comfortable looking – which is much in keeping with the fact that it is still a family home. Enjoyed some of the paintings too – especially the portraits which were over the front desk where you show your tickets. Had a nice wander around the shop to get my obligatory guide book, and to read more about the tree preserved within the castle itself…
Time for a final wander around the gardens (loved the roses) and to take some pictures and generally people watch the visitors and spot AR experts! This is when I spotted this before we left:
Right in the centre you'll spot the presenter Fiona Bruce! It was nice to see her, if only at a distance. The programme I believe is scheduled for the end of 2012, early 2013.
And I didn't even manage to mention THAT Scottish play in this post!
*UPDATE The programme has now been shown. You can see a clip here.

Revised: 08/01/2014
If you are a non-library personnel wishing to have access to the conference rooms, contact the Library's Administration Office at (831) 656-2341 to check on availability and to schedule the room if the above requirements are met. Once scheduled, it is your responsibility to arrange for room access with the Administration Office and to set up a walk-through of how to use the equipment if needed.
The conference room will not normally be available for non-library personnel to use for regular (e.g., weekly) meetings or classes, or during key periods of the Academic Calendar (ex: first week of the Academic Quarter) when Library classes and briefings for students occur, but rather for occasional meetings when other facilities are not available. Our conference rooms are usually booked, and while we reserve them for people outside of the library for a short period of time, or occasionally one or two, days, we cannot support regular or recurring classes. Classes need to be schedule through the NPS Scheduler at (831) 656-3090.

5-Spice Slow-Cooker Pork Ribs
I don't know what's gotten into me this week, but I've been on a serious Asian food kick. My poor cumin has been languishing in the spice cabinet as I reach for the Chinese five-spice powder and ginger. We recently got a new delivery of grass-fed beef that just about filled our freezer, so I've been working my way through back inventory of frozen meat. Tucked into far left corner of the freezer, I found two packages of pork spare ribs and instantly had a craving for Asian-spiced pig. What I did not have a craving for, however, was spending a buttload of time in the kitchen or tending the grill.
I did zero internet research and didn't even flip through my favorite go-to cookbooks — I just opened my spice cabinet and starting experimenting. The result was fall-off-the-bone-if-you-look-at-them-askance ribs, infused with the complex but comforting flavors of Chinese five-spice powder.
Our first meal was simply the unadorned ribs with some crudité alongside; our second was a nourishing bowl of broth spiked with lots of ginger, bok choy, and tender morsels of pork I pulled off the bones by winking at them.
You can absolutely use this approach for beef ribs, and I suspect it will also work great on larger beef and pork cuts, like shoulder and stew meat. With good spices and a slow cooker, you really can't go wrong.
5-Spice Slow-Cooker Pork Ribs
Prep 2 min. | Cook 6-12 hours in slow cooker
3-4 pounds baby back or St. Louis pork ribs
salt and ground black pepper
2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
3/4 teaspoon coarse (granulated) garlic powder
1 fresh jalapeño, cut into rings
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons coconut aminos or homemade substitute
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1. Cut the ribs into pieces that will fit standing up in the slow cooker. Lay the ribs on a cutting board and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix the Chinese five- spice and garlic powder together, then massage onto the meat to coat the ribs.
2. Toss the jalapeño rings into the bottom of the slow cooker, and add the rice vinegar, coconut aminos, and tomato paste. Stir until the tomato paste is combined with the other liquids. Add the ribs, standing up so they're not lying in the liquid – or use a roasting rack inside the cooker so the ribs are not lying on the bottom – cover, and cook 6 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low.
3. When the ribs are fall-apart tender, remove them from the cooker. Pour the liquid into a heat-proof container and refrigerate until the fat separates from the juices. Remove the fat and bring the remaining liquid to a boil, then simmer for a few minutes. Use as a dipping/drizzle sauce for the meat.
4. Want 'em crispy? Throw the ribs in a 400F oven for 10 minutes while you boil the sauce.
Gingery Pork & Bok Choy Soup
Serves 2; easy to double, triple, quadruple | Prep 2 min. | Cook 2-8 hours in slow cooker | Assembly 5 min.
beef, chicken, or pork stock
a big hunk of fresh ginger
a few garlic cloves
leftover 5-Spice Pork Ribs
1 head fresh bok choy or spinach, coarsely chopped
3-4 scallions, thinly sliced
2 hard-boiled eggs (optional)
1. Place your stock in the slow cooker. Peel the ginger and cut into 1/2-inch slices; add to crockpot. Peel garlic and lightly smash with the flat side of a knife; add to crockpot. Cover and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours (or more).
2. When you're ready to eat, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons water, and when it starts to boil, throw in the bok choy, sautéeing in the steam until it's just tender. Divide among serving bowls. In the same pan, stir fry your desired amount of pork until it's hot. Place the pork in the serving bowls, then ladle hot broth into the bowls until the veg and meat are almost covered. Sprinkle the top with sliced scallions and garnish with wedges of hard-boiled egg, if using.

For the ribs, is it really just 3 tablespoons of liquid that they're slow cooked in? Or am I missing something that's right in front of my face? Just got over a butt-kicking head cold so still a bit fuzzy, so my apologies if I am missing the obvious. Thanks bunches!
I was wondering the same thing. Do you mean cover as in put the lid on the slow cooker or cover with water?
I don't have a slow cooker but I have had great success with slow cooking in my oven. Set it to ~100 celsius and cover the meat/cooking vessel with tin foil. Leave it.
Safety-wise I have an electric oven and a fire alarm. Never do this with a gas oven.
The second recipe… is it really necessary to use the slow cooker? Seems like a waste of electricity =(
As a former long time vegetarian, ribs are one thing I have yet to tackle. But you have yet to steer me wrong. In fact, your recipes usually rock. So I might have to give this a try. After all, you've got me eating chicken liver!
Plus, this will give me something to do with my crock pot besides making lard! (Yes, the lard was a huge mental leap for my post veggie brain as well)
Thanks for sharing these! I love adding hard boiled eggs to my curries as well. Really easy added protein.
COOL. I have yet to try cooking ribs. Bought some grass fed bison ribs in our last order from North Star (here check 'em out, they're fantastic- http://www.northstarbison.com/) do you think this method would work with such lean meat? I looooove crock pot cooking, and am nervous to cook ribs for the 1st time.
Thanks Mel! You're my new Fav!
I'm trying to find a good way to cook about 2 lb of venison steak. Do you think this spice combo would be a good option, or should I stick with something like chili?
This sounds so yummy! Did you place the ribs on top of each other or did you stand them up?
I have a couple of slabs of pork ribs in my freezer just calling my name!
My husband is on a self proclaimed "rib cook off" he being his only competition! Maybe I should challenge him with this one!
I have been using the spice combos from Penzey's that you recommend in your book – yum! Can't wait to try this recipe with the Chinese Five Spice. Thanks for broadening my culinary horizons! So glad to have you blogging everyday.
Can you make any suggestions to substitute the chinese spice rub and the coconut aminos?
Wow those look great! Do you have previous cooking experience or are you just naturally talented in the kitchen?
When I was a young girl my brothers were hunters. Venison, rabbit and pheasant often made its to our dinner table. Venison is very lean and can be dry. Venison steak should be cooked quickly in a hot pan or it will get tough and chewy. My mother always fried it with bacon to add fat along with some sliced onions for flavor. I've heard marinating venison in buttermilk will tenderize it but, of course, that would not be recommended if you are eating Paleo.
Hope this helps!
I forgot to mention in my previous post, while I am by no means an expert, I would not recommend cooking venison steak in a slow cooker. Venison should be cooked quickly at a high temperature or it will be too dry and chewy.
My husband is a hunter, so we've always got venison in the freezer. I completely concur with your recommendation to cook it hot and fast as a general rule, but would also note that it can make a fabulous slow-cooker stew. I think the stew gravy makes up for any lack of fat, and it's fall-apart tender. FWIW.
I'm so excited to try this recipe! And I am even more excited to make soup out of the leftoves!
I have a quick question about your weekly cookup. My mom challenged me on keeping cooked chicken thighs and ground beef/turkey/insert favorite ground meat here in my fridge for a week. This is coming from a woman that eats dairy products and eggs far beyond their expiration date. So, her challenge really freaked me out. Is it safe to store the cooked meats in the fridge for a week?
Yum… thanks for the 5-spice recipe. Gotta try that one instead of letting the spice sit in the pantry.
Hey Mel. Left a post here the other day but looks like it got lost in space. Just wanted to let you know how much I love your cookbook and am enjoying it! Made "the best chicken ever" with the Moroccan dipping sauce this week, delish! One bummer is the cookbook is starting to fall apart and I haven't abused it….yet. Just thought you'd like to know.
Hi- well – I am going to try this one. But – I bought the boneless ribs instead. Hoping it will turn out and not be super-tough meat. My kids hate super-tough meat.
i made these.
they are good.
i love the versatility of this dish. a perfect weeknight meal!
so… i made this recipe today, included all exact ingredients, and cooked the ribs on low for about 9 hours. this recipe did not turn out very well. maybe its cause i cooked them on low instead of high… but they turned out very fatty, very burned on the outside, nothing caramelized looking like in this photo.
I cooked them last Friday. They were fantastic!!! They fell off the bone, we're tasty and tender. In fact, I didn't get to try the second recipe because I couldn't keep my hands off the leftovers. I never would have thought to put ribs in the slow cooker. And all for $1.98/lb.
Btw thanks for the info on the local grass fed options!
I cooked these 2 nights ago, Delicious! The only problem was saving enough meat for the soup I planned to make today (I had to take it off the table so my hubby would stop eating them!) So we don't have tons of meat left. I'm considering throwing the bones in with the broth for the added flavor. Thoughts?
hi mel – really struggling to find coconut aminos in my neighborhood food stores. i would love to create some of your asian recipes, besides ordering online are there any brands i can be on the hunt for? i see braggs liquid aminos in a lot of stores, could this be a good replacement for soy sauce/coconut aminos? i love your recipes, your cookbook, and the way you write! keep up the awesome work, can't wait to see what you accomplish with this new job change!!

What kind of slow cooker do you use?
Both of these recipes were delicious. We used baby bok choy because we bought a huge box at Costco, and jarred ginger because we already had it. My wife suggested that some crushed red pepper flakes would have livened up the soup.
I also changed the cooking order for the soup. I simmered the stock on the stovetop, then figured that the meat would take longer to heat than the bok choy. So I tossed the meat around in a skillet for a few minutes while slicing the bok choy, then added the bok choy until it was tender.

Just bought your cookbook tonight and this recipe sealed the deal. My mother makes a Thai 5 spice soup for me that is AmAzing, so I'm stoked about this recipe! Thank you for sharing!
Just tried this last night and while I didn't get the caramelization that you did, you are SO RIGHT – the meat literally fell off of the bones. And, it was my very first time to ever cook ribs. Never thought about cooking them in a crock pot! Thanks for all of the good recipes – I've tried the Chocolate Chili, the sausage (OMG), the cocoa cauliflower – love them all!
Right on! Glad you liked the ribs. Isn't it AWZSOME that this recipe is zero work and tastes so freakin' good?!
Thanks for the compliments on the others, too. Great to know you're enjoying them!
The 5 spice ribs sounds great but, why not a recipe we can all make with out special ordering ingredients. Offer us an alternative.
Just made these ribs tonight, used seasoned rice vinegar( what I had on hand) and 1tbsp olive oil (no coconut aminos on hand)… Really gOod!!! They cooked a little longer than planned (we were out boating with friends…need I say more?) they were Very CarmelizEd- definitely
need to cook 'em on high to get that crispy/crunchy outer layer…. But they were Very Tasty…rate 'em as an "I'll definitely" Make em again

Oh yes. And I had no idea what in all heck coconut aminos were until like a second ago. The more you know, right?
Can't wait to make this during the winter, when I can curl up with some taste of summer.
Making these for the third time this summer. They disappear quickly from the fridge, they are so delicious! I may have to try some of the spice alterations sometime for a change of pace!
Quick question, I want to keep the Asian feel, but do not want to use Rice Wine Vinegar. I already own coconut aminos, and wanted to see if substituting either a red or white wine vinegar with the c.a.s would have a similar Asian flavor. Thoughts?
Man, oh man! I just stuck some of these ribs in the crock pot, and it smells amazing! This is my first time actually cooking with 5-spice, though I've eaten plenty of dishes using it. Can't wait to try them. Thanks for the great recipe!
Have made these with pork spare ribs before and LOVE them. Tonight tried them with boneless beef short ribs. AMAZING. Still remains one of our favorites!
Hi Mel!
Wanted to let you know that I have made this recipe twice for my wife's Korean family who are visiting from overseas.
This is an absolute hit!
I use boneless beef short ribs and Tamari instead of Coconut Aminos. FYI dish goes great when wrapped in lettuce and served with Kimchi
I made these last night with a few tweaks and they were amazing. I have never had such tender meat! I used minced garlic thrown in with a chopped onion underneath the ribs, then added the ribs and topped with slices of ripe mango. Cooked on high for just over 5 hours. Drool.
Looking forward to trying Joel's suggestion above about making lettuce wraps with the leftovers. Thanks Melissa!
Made the ribs yesterday but since hubby wasn't in the "asian flair" mood, I subbed apple cider vinegar and chili powder/paprika. These were SOOO good! He insisted on slathering Sweet Baby Rays on them, but I was beyond satisfied with with eating them plain and a few bites dipped in Whole30 approved BBQ Sauce. I polished off the rest of the ribs this morning for breakfast. So good!! Maybe hubby will come around some day…just maybe
I impulse bought some short ribs this morning at the grocery store and they will soon be in the crock pot! This sounds/looks delicious!

I had planned to have these for dinner on Tuesday; but since I didn't get them into the crock pot until late afternoon that didn't happen. Unfortunately they were accidentally forgotten about and left roasting for 12 hours on High instead of Low. Oops. This slightly over cooked a couple of the bottom pieces and of course dried up any semblance of a sauce at the bottom.
Never one to waste food I salvaged what I could (meaning everything that wasn't burned to the crockpot liner). Regardless of this mishap the flavoring throughout the meat was fantastic, and the bones literally fell out as I was transferring the rib meat into a container. It was beautiful.
Tonight I was not home to make dinner. So I informed DH that the leftover (omitting the 'overcooked' description) ribs in the fridge were dinner tonight. He mentioned at bedtime how tender the meat was and that the flavoring on the ribs was amazing. This was music to my ears; he is a hard critic when it comes to new recipes.
But DH loves ribs and I never have the time or patience to make them. This recipe was so simple and the prep time quick and easy. Of course next time the temp setting will be different, but this is definately being put on the monthly recipe carousel.
Thank you!
This recipe is amazing! I've made it twice now and had enough leftovers to able to make the soup with the second attempt. OMG- I think the soup is even better than the ribs! Added shitake mushrooms and shredded carrots to the soup for my own twist.
I also want to thank you for your fantastic cookbook. It helped me get comfortable with the cooking/food prep I had to do while on my Whole 30 and even after. It's to the point where it's just second nature to have a big cooking session every Sunday to get me through the week. I also can't stop making the Chocolate Chili. It's become a staple in my meal rotation, so much so that I've made it every 2 weeks for the last 3 months.

Hello, i am on the Whole30, day 15. To celebrate i would like to make some ribs with no fuss. I have no coconut aminos, none in the UK that i can find so far. So what do you suggest as a substitute. I have a pretty hefty spice cupboard so if you have any wild suggestions i might be able to try them out. If i cannot use the substitute today it will come in handy for another recipe. Either way it is ribs tonight. I will be trying out your sweet-potato-soup-for-breakfast recipe. My husband thinks i am mad but i have whole ras el hanout spices i bought in Marrakech that i will be grinding for the first time for the recipe. Very excited.
I see you have answered the question before from another of my compatriots. Never mind. Thanks for your recipes. I have another question. I would like to stop eating eggs for every breakfast. Have you got any recipes you can point me towards that are particularly child friendly?
Hoping to make these today and I'm just wondering how you fit them into your slow cooker. Can they be layered if the rack of ribs is a bit too long? Thanks!
I just made this recipe for my family today, it was delish, my husband RAVED about these ribs! Simple recipe + gourmet taste=WIN! Shared this recipe with my friends on FB!
Looks good! Is there a specific 5-spice chinese seasoning? I can't find a recipe on your site for one so I didn't know if it was store bought?

Would this work with boneless chicken breast? Thanks
How much beef stock do you use in the soup?
Any suggestions on the amount of stock/broth and the leftover ribs to add to the soup? I was hoping for some rough idea based on the other ingredient amounts listed. Thanks!
I made the ribs recipe and now i'm wanting to make the ginger pork and bok choy soup. The recipe says to put the stock in the slow cooker. How much stock?
These are amazing! We discovered them on our first whole 30 and now they have become a part of our family…I mean, dishes our family loves.
We're in the middle of our first Whole30 and your website has been a go-to for ideas and advice, so first of all, thank you for all you do! We made these ribs last night (using beef short ribs instead) and holy cow were they awesome. I didn't have jalapenos so I used a bit of red pepper flakes instead and everything came out beautifully. This will be a staple even after the Whole30 is done – thanks again!

Here is a list of seasonal duties that we perform (well, we try to perform them, but sometimes weather and life get the better of our intentions) on our farm, ensuring healthy and productive plants.
Too little or too much fertilizer can be bad for any fruit producing plant, as it can result in nutrient imbalances and toxicity. Many of you who order and correspond with me have asked me what we do here at our farm, so I am going to put it here for all to see. We've spent a while playing around with different formulations and timing of applications, and feel we have a pretty good system. So, here is our fertility schedule for our blueberry plants (click HERE to jump down to the care for raspberry plants).
Early to mid-spring, usually when the daffodils are in full
bloom, we top-dress our blueberries with half to 1 pound
Re-Vita Pro fertilizer (5-4-3), depending upon the size and age of the plant (3-5 years old get 0.5#, 6 yrs. and older get 1 pound, or roughly 3 cups). This is done by sprinkling the fertilizer over the growing zone of the plant (which for us is a 3'x3' area).
In late May to June, I have found that repeating the top-dressing in spring (at a half-rate) encourages larger berries as well as better flowering the following year. If you are also using the liquid feeding schedule we recommend, this second top-dressing is not neccessary.
Any balanced, organic fertilizer will do. If you use alfalfa meal or pellets (instead of the granular fertilizer), the top-dressing amount should be 1# for young plants (up to 5 years) and 2# for older plants (6 years and older). The alfalfa should be applied under the mulch of the blueberry, to keep it from spoiling.
After blossoms have fallen, we begin the liquid feeding of our plants. This is given to them every two weeks through August. It is delivered though drip or hose line, and is applied to the root zone (during fruiting) and foliage (from bloom to green berry, then post-harvest).
Liquid Fertilizer Recipe
For 1 gallon of mixture, add these amounts to 1 gallon of water:
Neptune's Harvest Fish Fertilizer (2-4-1).......2 Tbsp.
Maxicrop or other kelp (liquid)..................½ Tbsp.
blackstrap molasses.................................½Tbsp.
Each plant can receive enough to get good saturation, but don't overwater. We usually irrigate the day before applying the liquid fertilizer mix, or apply after a rain shower if it fits the schedule. Usually on mature plants they get a 5 gallon dose, younger plants less. If you planted a blueberry from us last year, it could get 1-2 gallons of this mix, depending upon its size (lowbush less, highbush more).
If you would like to give the plants a foliar feeding of this as well, go ahead and just spray them to dripping with the above solution. However, I would advise using the liquid mix only on the root zone of mature plants with fruits that are ripening (so the berries are not "fishy" tasting). After harvest is done, you can begin foliar treatments. I have found increased production and vigor in our plants the following year when treated with this mix up to the end of August.
In areas of the country with alkaline soils and water, I strongly recommend using the soil-less mix method for planting and growing blueberries.
Top dressing the planting area each year with a shovel or two of sphagnum peat moss will help maintain acidity.
The last aspect of a good fertility schedule is mulching, which eventually breaks down to provide nutrients to the plants not found in the purchased fertilizers (in fact, one of the facets of using the fish fertilizer is to add nitrogen to the mulch so microbes can break it down more effectively and release those nutrients for your plants use). Whenever we can, we use shredded oak or maple leaves, and pine needles (these are just the best, so those of you in the south take advantage of the baled pine needles often sold at local nurseries or garden centers). Shredded pine bark will last two to three seasons, but should be dressed if you start to see bare patches in its cover (excellent places for weeds to get in, and they will grow like crazy if they get started). Mulches should be at least 3 inches thick for blueberry plants, and coarse so that water percolates through the mulch easily (that is why the oak leaves need to be shredded or chopped, otherwise they deflect water from the growing area).
That is it, rather simple, yet the old saw "A stitch in time saves nine" is true as ever. Proper care and feeding results in the best production and health for your plants.
I am only going to give some basic precepts here, as there are
many fine books and references (which I have always used and found
to be effective) available.
First, every spring, look at the bush and prune away any dead or broken branches or stems.
Second, you want to remove any twiggy, horizontal growth near the base of the plant. These stems will never result in anything, and they just sap energy away from the plant, reducing productivity.
Last, you want to keep the bush open, so sunlight can penetrate all the way through the bush. This generally means getting rid of excessively twiggy branches and stems, which usually only produce smaller berries anyway. This may decrease your yield slightly, but will increase the size and quality of your berries, as well as encourage new growth from the crown.
For the plants you purchase from us, you should only have to do the first two steps during the three years after purchase. The following years may see the need for the third step, as well as regenerative pruning.
For regenerative pruning I will refer you to Barbara Bowling's book
The Berry Growers Companion, which is a great reference for care and management of many berry species. This is a great all around book for the backyard grower.
For those of you desiring a more in depth book specifically about highbush blueberries, Dr. Robert E Gough's book
The Highbush Blueberry and Its Management is excellent. Dr. Gough is renowned for his studies and illumination in the care of highbush blueberries. The book, however, is very much written for larger scale, commercial production (non-organic), but is still filled with information useful to the small or backyard grower that desires more technical insight.
Generally, blackberries and raspberries require less attention to fertility than other crops, but a good schedule does increase their productivity.
In late April, usually when the redbud and serviceberry are in
bloom, we top-dress our raspberries at 1/4 pound Re-Vita
Pro fertilizer (5-4-3) per foot row, or a half-pound per 3' diameter
The next round of fertilizer will occur right at blossom time, at half the rate listed above. You can also start the liquid feeding schedule we use on the blueberries once the canes are up and growing (for fall bearing raspberries) or have sprouted and begun flowering (for summer raspberries and blackberries). Suspend any foliar liquid feeding about 2 weeks before the berries are beginning to ripen. I've found increased vigor and yield, better pest and disease resistance, and less winter-cane kill in our brambles when they receive the liquid fertilizer treatment up to when the daytime temps are consistently less than 60 degrees (usually mid-October here in Brown Co., IN).
A lot of places and books warn against mulching raspberries, but I have had good luck with it. The key, I think, has to do with the type of mulch. Use a coarse mulch, like pine nuggets or straw, that dries out readily and doesn't mat. Things to avoid using are grass clippings, un-shredded leaves, hay (filled with weed seeds...believe me!), hardwood bark mulch, and wood chips. Grass is the worst enemy in a patch of raspberries, so make sure you don't let any get started. Wheat straw will have wheat coming up in your patch, but just cut it out at the base and that will do it in (wheat is not perennial). If you can find rye straw, it's great, and usually seedless. We usually mulch our patches every other year, after we see emergence and thin the canes. Fertilize with the granular material right before mulching, if you can. Remember that late is better than never, and if you don't get around to mulching and fertilizing them until May (late), they will totally appreciate the attention.
Heavy Soils and Brambles
We have very heavy soil here in County Brown, IN, and while that's a good thing during droughts, it can be a killer in extremely wet weather. Through trial and error (and error and error..), we've found a way to strike a balance between weather and soil conditions so that our brambles can be very successful.
Ridge and Mound Planting
The most susceptible brambles to seasonally wet soils are the red raspberries, especially the summer red raspberries. Yet, we get very reliable crops every year, as we plant in ridges (or mounds, if you have just a few plants here and there). In a row 18" to 24" wide, we have a gradual rise to the middle of the row, so that the above "grade" height of the ridge is 6-8". That little bit of increase above grade seems to do wonders for our production, with ridged plantings giving nearly twice the amount of berries in wet years as non-ridged plantings. For mounds 3' across, the same applies: a gentle rise to 6-8" above grade.
Of course, in dry weather, you'll want to have an irrigation line down, but that is something you should be prepared to provide anyway (we usually soak the row with 2 gallons per foot row, applied at half-gallon per hour through drip lines during hot, dry weather, twice per week).
Blackberries, black and purple raspberries, and the Anne Golden fall raspberry, do not seem to benefit nearly as much as the red raspberries do from this technique. The Lauren red raspberry really appreciates the ridge method, and seems to require it for best production.
Pruning your brambles
Currently under production...more coming as our farm time allows. Specific questions or concerns? Send us an email, we'll get you the answer.
Hopefully will be adding pictures here as time allows.

Typical bolted flanged joints utilize gaskets that leave crevices at the flange ID. Coupled with aggressive chemicals, dissimilar metals, and typically conductive sealing materials, flange corrosion is prevalent in the refining, petrochemical and chemical processing industries. Corrosion and subsequent leaks cause unplanned downtime, costly flange repair, or the need to apply an industrial clamp to maintain plant operation.
A special composite gasket utilizing semi-metallic and non-metallic components has eliminated crevices preventing the onset of corrosion and has also sealed against existing flange corrosion. All instances offer the benefit of eliminating downtime, costly repair and use of clamps. This gasketing concept and design will be discussed in this paper.

Posted on Written by Toni Dash 26 Comments
Lea Ann (Highlands Ranch Foodie) says
Beautiful salad Toni. I especially like the tangerine balsamic. I'm such a sucker for vinaigrettes. I happen to be one of those who does eat alot of salads in the Winter. Usually for lunch. That way I can sin with all the pastas, meatloafs and stews for dinner.
Boulder Locavore says
Anything with balsamic vinegar 'speaks to me'. I love that it's not quite as tart as most vinegar with such a rich flavor. If you like spicy greens you'd love this. I loved the different bites of the mustard and the mint combined.
Kiri W. says
Wow, what gorgeous colors The flavors sound wonderful too – perfect winter salad!
Boulder Locavore says
Thank you Kiri. I think this fits closely with the goal of 'eating the rainbow' daily for all the colors.
Cooking with Michele says
Very pretty…makes me crave spring!
Boulder Locavore says
Thanks Michele!
Sarah says
So glad I'm not the only one who gets excited over heirloom carrots! We grew some one year and they were divine. The tangerine balsamic dressing sounds really good!
Boulder Locavore says
I love heirloom carrots AND any vegetable with a surprise inside (watermelon radishes are another favorite!).
motherrimmy says
What a terrific salad. I love that you've taken advantage of seasonal vegetables!
Boulder Locavore says
Thank you! It can be a challenge this time of year but this salad has unending flavor making it feel winter-worthy rather than the light greens in the spring.
Viviane Bauquet Farre - Food and Style says
Toni, What a gorgeous salad! I love mizuna – so spunky! I grew some in my veggie garden last year and it did so well. You're making me long for spring. The Tangerine vinaigrette is brilliant!
Boulder Locavore says
Thank you Viviane. I love how delicate mizuna is but still with a bit of a bite.
suzanna says
I enjoyed the! thanks
Boulder Locavore says
Thank you Suzanna!
Rikki says
This looks really good! Bright and colorful!
Boulder Locavore says
Thanks Rikki.
Lisa @ Tarte du Jour says
That's a stunning salad indeed! I'm digging the carrots (pun intended)! It keeps it interesting when vegetable colors aren't what you'd expect.
Boulder Locavore says
I agree Lisa. I think especially at this time of year, which is so often dreary, more color is great. And usually means more nutritional value too!
Sylvie @ Gourmande in the Kitchen says
What a beautiful salad, so vibrant and fresh.
Boulder Locavore says
Thank you Sylvie. The flavor is very lively as well!
Kelly Mulcair Registered Nutritionist. Content © 2011 Trinity Nutrition. says
What a stunning salad ~ I absolutely love it and the presentation as well. It's going up on my salad board at pinterest – have a great day.
Boulder Locavore says
Kelly you have made my day; thank you!
Kim Bee says
This is lovely. I want those carrots something awful. I just picked up 4 kinds of pears tonight so this is great for inspiration. I love the dressing as well. I usually hate dressing and like my salads dry but this is one I would give a whirl.
Ann says
Beautiful salad! I love salads and while I don't eat as many during the winter – there are days I can't get enough of them! Your photos are stunning and I've just GOT to pin your carrot pic!
kita says
Oh how I wish I could serve a salad like this in my house. It's beautiful and I can just imagine that flavors. Fresh and wonderful. But sadly, BF only likes spinach salads (well, I guess I can't be too upset, at least its not ice burg). I could sneak in the carrots and maybe a little mint though!

Order the new album, Bad Self Portraits by Lake Street Dive, and get a limited* autographed CD booklet with purchase!
Lake Street Dive have been performing for nearly a decade after meeting as fellow students at the New England Conservatory in Boston. The band was hand picked by Minneapolis trumpet/guitar player Mike Olson and named after an actual neighborhood of seedy bars in his hometown. Vocalist Rachael Price came from outside Nashville, Tennessee, stand-up bassist Bridget Kearney was an Iowa native, while drummer Mike Calabrese called Philadelphia home. "I wasn't only impressed with their musicianship," says Olson, who acquired the nickname "McDuck" while at the conservatory for his reclusive ways. "They were also a lot of fun just to hang out with. The first four years of rehearsals were more like glorified dinner parties."The new album, Bad Self Portraits, which is being released by the Northampton, Massachusetts indie label Signature Sounds Recording as the follow-up to a self-titled debut and subsequent EP, is a microcosm of Lake Street Dive's evolution of the band from "a weird alt-country jazz group to a pop-soul juggernaut, that turns '60s influences like Brill Building girl groups ("Stop Your Crying"), British Invasion rock ("Bobby Tanqueray"), horn-driven Stax R&B ("You Go Down Smooth"), Motown soul ("Use Me Up") and even The Band-like gospel blues ("What About Me").All four members of the band take part in the writing. The Bridget-penned title track is a wry commentary on how those selfie iPhone photos are just a cover for loneliness, but it could also refer to the rest of the album, each song a polaroid glimpse of a band that is constantly evolving."Nothing we do is set in stone," says Olson about the band's recording process in the studio, and that they are, first and foremost, a live outfit. "Songs change when we start to play them for people. That determines the stylistic direction more than anything else. When we record a song, that's just a snapshot of where it was at that moment. And it continues to grow as we perform it."And as things are rapidly growing for Lake Street Dive, the nine years that they spent focusing on their musical development has left them with one constant to strive for.

Loyal Customer Since: 2005
These are great, more resistant than the canisters. I would love if there was a 250ml size. Great appearance too.
Loyal Customer Since: 2009
Very nice, sleek, and professional-looking. Can be used for women's or men's high-end product. Love 'em! Price is decent, too.
Loyal Customer Since: 2009
very light weight. love em. nice finish. u have to cut the tube with the spritz cap.
Loyal Customer Since: 2008
These bottles are nice. They have a pretty finish. I have found that I like the glass bottles better for small quantities, however they are nicely shaped and colored. I use my bottle every day for my grapeseed and EO mixture. It works great.
Loyal Customer Since: 2005
I am very pleased with the 150 ml pump bottle, which I bought because NDA no longer sells glass over 100 ml in quantities smaller than 2000. The pump is good for thicker lotions and shampoos. I put the packaging price separately from product price for my customers so that people are aware of the preciousness of packaging and are encouraged to reuse and refill. I give a discount for refilling on top of not charging the packaging price again! With attractive bottles like this, I can more easily encourage environmental responsibility.
Loyal Customer Since: 2006
This bottle looks superb for my all natural spritzers. I appreciate that it is environmentally friendly, and reduces our dependence upon petroleum based plastics.
Loyal Customer Since: 2008
I love these bottles. I was totally surprised when they arrived. I was expecting a bulky shaped bottle. Instead, they are very sleek with a matte finish. They will fit nicely into a medicine cabinet or cosmetic tray. I paired it with the silver matte pump.

The state track meets are going to be held Friday and Saturday. As I looked over the list of entrants from Galveston County schools, I was struck by the level of talent we have this year.
Friendswood's Ryan Teel has already won four gold medals in track and cross-country and he's going for two more. Tiffany Terry of Clear Springs has a good shot to bring home the iron in the 400 meters, 800 meters and 4x400-meter relay.

Film review: 'Brothers'
Date: December 9, 2009
by: Pam Nadon | Film Critic
The casualties of war can often extend far beyond the battlefields and mortality numbers. Director Jim Sheridan ("My Left Foot") brings the Afghanistan war home in his new film, "Brothers." Politics aside, this is a story about the open wounds, which have buried themselves deep inside of military combatants.
Capt. Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire) is about to be re-deployed to Afghanistan for his fourth tour of duty. His loving wife, Grace (Natalie Portman), and two daughters absolutely adore him. His brother, Tommy (Jake Gyllenhaal), is the antithesis of his older brother. He's a lush and an ex-con. Their dad, Hank (Sam Shepard), ex-military himself, idolizes Sam and finds Tommy despicable. When Sam's helicopter is shot down, he's presumed dead.
In actuality, Sam's been taken prisoner by the Taliban, along with another Marine. Tortured and forced to commit an atrocious act, Sam becomes a ticking time bomb upon his return home. In the meantime, Tommy has cleaned up his act and has been functioning somewhat as the male presence in Sam's family during his absence. Sam's suspicions about the relationship between Grace and Tommy spin out of control, and in his manic state, the lives of his loved ones are forever altered.
"Brothers" is a taut psychological drama that delves into the effects of war on its victims. It's about how war makes monsters out of honorable human beings. But "Brothers" is also the powerful tale of families coming together to forgive and help heal the tortured souls of those who bravely serve our country.
Each member of this gifted cast does some of the best work of his or her career. Maguire (aka "Spiderman") gives a surprisingly chilling performance as the guilt-ridden golden boy sinking into self destruction.
Portman (who first wowed me in "The Professional" back in 1994) has matured into an actress of great depth, so evident in her role as the grieving widow/forgiving wife. Gyllenhaal ("Brokeback Mountain") is flawless as the bad son/good son evolving on a journey to redemption. And it's always great to see Shepard playing the gruff, hard-drinking, narrow-minded patriarch so effortlessly.
When one of the vicious Taliban captors tells Sam, "This is our country ... you should not be here," I thought about the poignant and ironic timing of this thought-provoking film's release. I thought about painful decisions that tear families apart. "Brothers" made me think about war — and why.

New Projects, Players Attracted To Downtown Little Rock Redevelopment
Posted 11/22/2010 12:00 am
Updated 2 years ago
Scott Reed turned his attention from rehabing houses in the Central High neighborhood to renovating the Gus Blass Dry Goods Warehouse at 315 Main St.
Workers are busy at the building where Porters, a jazz-themed restaurant, is expected to open next year, followed by 30 apartments.
"We have 24 people on the wait list, and we only have 30 units," Reed said. "This is people standing out in front of the building giving us their name and contact information. These people work downtown."
The restaurant will occupy most of the basement and ground floor, with two apartments on the ground floor and 28 more on floors 2-5. Reed describes the 42,000-SF project as a LEED-certified, historic renovation.
"It will be a pretty unique building," Reed said. "That's not a combo you see very often."
Brad and Shelley Barnett are still in the planning phase to redevelop the YMCA Building at 524 Broadway. Workers have removed "10 tons" of material since the couple bought the property for $150,000 three months ago, according to Brad Barnett.
"If someone hadn't seen what it looked like before, they wouldn't realize that it's come a long way," he said. "We're looking forward to next year and pushing forward.
"We've talked with a dozen different people interested in coming to the building, including shops and restaurants. Is anyone definite? No."
Three properties and $2 million later, Greg Hatcher has called a timeout to further downtown redevelopment action.
"That's it for now," Hatcher said. "My cup runneth over."
He embarked on a small buying spree of downtown Little Rock that started with a new location for his insurance firm, The Hatcher Agency. The $675,000 purchase of the 308-310 Louisiana St. building in August 2009 led him to acquire two nearby properties.
"For me, what I was looking for was parking," Hatcher said. "Sometimes you just have to do things on a leap of faith. I knew the building we bought was a great buy and had great potential, and I tried to work out the parking five or six ways. But I just couldn't get it worked out."
Hatcher made an earlier offer on the largely vacant building but backed off, only to return six months later after deciding to close the deal and figure out the parking logistics afterward.
Hatcher thought Stephens Inc. owner Warren Stephens might put in a parking lot on the half block Stephens cleared on the west side of Main Street between Fourth Street and Capitol Avenue.
That nearby possibility didn't play out after Hatcher learned that Stephens was content to warehouse the property for future development.
With his $400,000 remodeling project at 310 Louisiana St. in full swing, Hatcher was still in search of parking for his staff. He found 25 slots a half block to the south.
However, buying the parking lot meant buying an adjoining 15,951-SF building at 400 Louisiana St. in a $500,000 package deal. The numbers made financial sense, so Hatcher accepted the role of landlord to gain half of his 50 desired parking slots.
"I was trying to buy parking here, there and everywhere," he said.
Sam Alley, CEO of the VCC general contracting firm, also was looking for parking options for his staff near the company's updated 18,000-SF headquarters at 216 Louisiana St.
Hatcher and Alley had looked at buying and razing the 61,000-SF KARK Building at 201 W. Third St. But the property was joined to its 46,000-SF Siamese twin at 207 W. Third St.
Logistics dictated razing both addresses, and the resulting cost and number of parking slots were too much for Hatcher and Alley to bite off separately.
"We figured out 'Why don't we just split it?'" said Hatcher, who will gain parking adjacent to his new offices. "We each needed half."
"It made a lot of sense," Alley said. "We're neighbors, and we love downtown.
"Once the buildings were offered for sale and we started looking into it and doing our due diligence, we discovered the asbestos."
Dealing with that extra expense required negotiating a price concession. Complicating matters were three different family ownerships divided among more than a dozen heirs. Both hurdles were crossed, resulting in a combined $675,000 transaction.
"As many people that were involved in the deal, I thought it might not ever close," Alley said. "I was not too optimistic, but the deal got done through persistence and patience."
James Dyke also opted to tear down a 26,348-SF office building at 306 Center St., built circa 1960, in favor of a parking lot. The property is expected to yield about 20 slots that will support his Dyke Industries staff across the street at 309 Center St.
'New Opportunities'
Sharon Priest, executive director of the Downtown Little Rock Partnership, is somewhat philosophical about parking lots replacing vacant non-historic buildings.
"At least, we have lots of new opportunities for development," she said.
From Alley's perspective, the teardowns will remove an eyesore structure and improve the looks of downtown. He also believes the project literally paves the way for new construction in the future while reducing the inventory of class B or C office space.
"Will there be another 40-story building built in Little Rock?" Alley said. "Probably not.
"Will there be another high-rise office building built in downtown Little Rock? Probably. Maybe one will be here someday."
In the meantime, a landscaped parking lot will take the place of long-vacant property.
Redevelopment Activity
Feb. 20, 2009
Southern Bancorp of Arkadelphia, through its community development corporation subsidiary, acquires the old Federal Reserve Building at 123 W. Third St. for $1.35 million.
The 45,000-SF building, partially used for record storage, is renovated for use by the high school grades of neighboring eStem Charter School, housed in the Arkansas Gazette Building.
Aug. 27
Insurance exec Greg Hatcher purchases the 308-310 Louisiana St. project for $675,000 with an eye toward relocating The Hatcher Agency to larger digs.
March 1, 2010
Scott Reed buys Deedeekay Inc., which owns the vacant 315 Main St. building, remembered by some as the Gus Blass Dry Goods Warehouse. Reed is converting the historic 42,000-SF structure into 30 apartments and Porters, a jazz-themed restaurant.
July 9
Hatcher acquires the 400 Louisiana St. project for $500,000, mainly for the 25 parking spots that accompanied the 15,951-SF building. He wants the parking for his new offices.
July 10-22
Sam Alley and Greg Hatcher, through 207 West 3rd Development LLC, purchase the 61,000-SF KARK Building at 201 W. Third St. for $550,000 and adjoining 46,000-SF former First National Bank operations center at 207 W. Third St. for $125,000.
After dealing with asbestos, the long-vacant buildings will be razed and converted to parking for The Hatcher Agency and Alley's VCC general contracting firm.
Aug. 5
Deseo LLC, led by Shellie Barnett, buys the 41,910-SF YMCA Building at 524 Broadway for $150,000. She and her husband, Brad, plan to redevelop the historic property, vacant since 1995, into a mixed-use project with office, retail and residential space.
Nov. 8
The Hatcher Agency opens for business in its newly renovated quarters at 314 Louisiana St.
The property is remembered as the one-time home of two financial concerns that disappeared during the 1980s: First Federal Savings & Loan Association followed by the investment firm of Collins Locke & Lasater and its various successors.

Every black woman has a hair story.
It can be a complex tale because her complex hair isn't simply the stuff she combs and styles. Her hair is often viewed as a statement—whether intended or not—about the culture she comes from or the life she leads. In a society where hair can define her, the decision to go natural can have an impact that goes way beyond fashion. And her hair story can take on many layers and twists and even curls.
Sometimes, her story is all about nostalgia, remembering the African-American mother-daughter ritual of Saturday afternoons at the kitchen table as Mommy straightened it with a hot comb, or braided it way too tight with nimble fingers, or touched up those edges with Revlon Fabu-Laxer.
Sometimes, it's about a choice made, remembering that definitive moment when she marched into the job interview or her conservative workplace with a defiant head of cornrows—in spite of the possible consequences.
Sometimes, it's about something as simple (or complicated) as style—wanting to set a trend at school or follow one she's seen in a magazine.
Sometimes, it's about something as simple (or complicated) as honoring her heritage, and even the women who made it acceptable. It's about wanting to create a look to emulate Angela Davis' 1960's afro, Cicely Tyson's 1970's cornrows, the dreadlocks of Lauryn Hill and Whoopi Goldberg, the untamed, defiant tresses of Macy Gray and Erykah Badu.
My hair story started with a 2001 book that was literally called Hair Story. Thinking about the health of my permed hair—hair that had been straightened by chemicals since college and by hot combs since childhood—and looking for a personal makeover that I could call my own, I watched authors Ayana Byrd and Lori Tharps discuss black hair in America during a televised reading the year their book came out.

Hi! I just found this site last night and feel like it may be the lifeboat I need to get through what I know I must do. I am 41 and have been involved in an affair with a younger man who is married with 2 small children. I was married when we met (also with two children 13 and 11). We met online on a website for affairs (ugh!). I had been married for 20 years and knew that things were in trouble. Not long after AP and I started seeing each other, my H and I separated. It has been almost 8 months. I know intellectually that this relationship is a dead end. I have put energy into this man which should have rightfully gone to my children and to my job. When I read the words 'A fog' on here, I knew I was in the right place because I have been in a fog. I have had my head so far up this guy's butt I don't know what is reality anymore. I do feel addicted. I want to break it off but I am afraid of being alone. I know that I have to do this but I am a sick to my stomach at the thougth of not having contact with him. In the beginning, he seemed so interested in me and now I feel like I am just here to make him feel better. I just have never been with anyone like him before. I know everyone feels that way. I know this is nothing unique. Still it hurts.
How do I get to being done? I know I need to be there. I keep telling myself that my children deserve more of me than he does. I tell myself that my job is more important than this man. I tell myself that I deserve better than crumbs. It is like I am living in some kind of fantasy world where I think we are an epic romance that will last forever. How blind! What do I do now? What do I read? I am sorry if it makes no sense...I just wanted to reach out for help because I need to be done with this affair but I am not quite there...any tips, links or words of wisdom are appreciated!! I am reading all i can on this board and it helps a lot!

Salt Lake Community College in Utah joins numerous other institutions of higher spending now offering an "associate of applied science [sic for 'baloney'] (A.A.S.) degree in "Homeland Security and Emergency Management." Yes. Seems there is a correct way to grope a victim while stealing his iPad, and by gum, the instructors are gonna learn rookies to do it right.
You won't be surprised at this propaganda's sponsors: "the Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration, the Unified Police Department of Greater Salt Lake, various medical institutions and other regional agencies and employers." What "employers," I'd like to know. This is nothing other than Our Rulers' indoctrinating new Nazis. And there is precious little need of the brutality their "classrooms" extol outside government. So let's dispense with the lies, OK? These wannabee goons will one day staff prisons, the militarized borders, anti-constitutional checkpoints on highways and at airports, concerts, etc., and cops' murderous ranks. No "employers" figure among this totalitarian crew, only government.
"Dr. Christopher Picard, SLCC Provost," genuflected before his political masters even as a bit of truth seeped into his spiel: "We are delighted with the Board of Regents' decision to offer the Homeland Security, Emergency Management associate of science degree. This degree will prepare graduates for positions in the collaborative world of managing the nation's security and emergency readiness." "Collaborative," huh? Yo, Chris: the word you're hunting is "fascism."
Chris continued: "The college is pleased to be able to help train professionals who will make our society safer." Where to begin? Hmmm. Chris, you familiar with the distinction between "society," the realm of voluntary action and interaction, and the State, with its monopoly on legalized, lethal force? You ever read—sorry, ever heard of the Constitution? You're only "helping to train"? So the DHS, TSA and badged pigs are also brainwashing your students? Does that concern you? Because it sure as heck would concern me, were I one of those bright-eyed innocents.
And while I'm at it, Chris, let me excoriate you personally for furthering the lunacy that this "degree"—or the other "practical" ones you and your colleagues foist on a gullible public—has anything whatever to do with "education." Mathematics, biology, botany, physics, literature, languages, philosophy, history: these are matters worth studying semester after semester. "Gate-Rape 101: Leave 'Em in Tears With No Cranny Unpoked" blasphemes 4000 years of culture, intellectual progress, and refinement. Everlasting shame on you and the educational gulag's other charlatans, Chris.
Finally, this "new degree" will rip off enrollees for the princely sum of $6100—and then it only "prepare[s] students for entry-level careers in the field of homeland security and emergency management." Yep, after forking over several months' pre-tax salary, these fools will merely rifle dirty laundry in passengers' suitcases. But not to worry: barbarians with their "skills" will enjoy a wealth of "opportunities": "U.S. Department of Labor statistics indicate that the need for emergency management professionals, protective service workers and police and sheriff's patrol officers is likely to increase by more than 33 percent between now and 2018." [Emphasis despairingly added: imagine a third more cops bullying, raping, robbing, and killing us over the next 5 years.]
And yet morons deny we live in a police-state.10:11 am on August 23, 2013 Email Becky Akers

This winter, I completely rebuilt the Edson steering system on my boat. With the kind of monopoly that Edson International (www.edsonintl.com) has, I expected the type of customer service one would have found in a Soviet-era supermarket. Boy, was I wrong!
Reed Austin and the other Edson crew provided prompt, friendly service during all of my myriad requests and calls. What a great company!
