Must-Own Players
Montee Ball, RB (DEN)--After much disappointment through the first half of the season, Montee Ball is back on the fantasy radar after a solid performance on Sunday. Ball took over the role of Ronnie Hillman, who was a healthy scratch, finishing with 12 carries for 38 yards and a touchdown in the Broncos win over the Redskins. Some may think that Ball isn't worth top dollar this week, considering he is the clear No. 2 option in the running game behind Knowshon Moreno, but the Broncos are in it for the haul and will need to keep Moreno fresh for the playoffs. The Broncos have a Week 9 bye, so Ball will get plenty of reps with the first team the next two weeks in practice, which will only help his chances of gaining more playing time. Expect him to get a similar workload as we saw Sunday moving forward, and possibly a bump in touches once the Broncos clinch a playoff spot, making him a solid flex play at the very least.
Marvin Jones, WR (CIN)--There is a good chance Marvin Jones will be the top waiver-wire add this week, and for good reason. Jones is tied atop the wide receiver scoring list with Calvin Johnson after scoring 36 fantasy points in standard league scoring in Week 8, finishing with eight receptions for 122 yards and four touchdowns in the Bengals win over the Jets. Entering the season, Jones was looked at to be the team's No. 3 or No. 4 option in the passing game, but as the season progresses his production continues to improve, leading to increased playing time. Although a repeat of last week is unlikely, opposing defenses have to give most of their attention to Green, which will lead to more opportunities for Jones to produce now that he has solidified himself as the team's second option in the passing game. Looking ahead, the Bengals are matched up against the Dolphins, Ravens and Browns the next three weeks, two of which have elite top cornerbacks, so there is a good chance Jones extends his touchdown streak, which is currently at three weeks, before hitting the bye-week.
Aaron Dobson, WR (NE)--For the first time since Week 2, Aaron Dobson totaled double-digit fantasy points after hauling in four catches for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots win over the Dolphins. He was only targeted five times in the contest, but was able to make the most of the limited opportunities, which marks the first time in his rookie season that he has converted 80 percent or more of the passes thrown his way. It is starting to become pretty clear that Tom Brady favors Dobson over the likes of Kenbrell Thompkins and Julian Edelman, after both players totaled three targets combined on Sunday, leaving Dobson the No. 3 option in the passing game behind Rob Gronkowski and Danny Amendola. While it has been hard to forecast how the targets will be distributed in the Patriots passing game so far in 2013, but 22 targets over the last three games for Dobson is something worth investing in.
Shane Vereen, RB (NE)--The Patriots running game has been a mess, to put it lightly, but their backfield will be getting a boost as soon as Week 11 when Shane Vereen is eligible to come off Injured Reserve. Vereen had a monster performance in Week 1, finishing with 14 carries for 101 yards and a touchdown while hauling in seven receptions for 58 yards before suffering a wrist injury. For some reason, and I don't know why, he is sitting on the waiver-wire in more than 50 percent of leagues throughout the major providers, despite being the top option for the Patriots once he returns. Both Stevan Ridley and Brandon Bolden have failed to claim their stake of the backfield up to this point, so it appears to be Vereen's for the taking. In standard leagues he should be considered a RB2 upon returning, while having RB1 upside in PPR leagues from what we saw in Week 1.
Solid Additions
Andre Brown, RB (NYG)--The Patriots backfield may be a mess, but it has not even come close to having the issues the Giants have had in their running game in 2013. After losing Andre Brown in the preseason with a broken leg, the team has now gone through five running backs over the last eight weeks in an effort to try and muster up some semblance of a running game to balance out their pass-first offensive philosophy. Going up against bad defenses the last two weeks, Peyton Hillis has been able to help the Giants in the short term, although once Brown returns he will likely be the featured back. Since he has yet to play in the regular season it is hard to speculate how the carries will be split once he is back, but if he can get back to the level we saw this preseason, Brown could be the type of player to help fantasy owners for the stretch run. He will be eligible to return in Week 10, so now is the time to buy-in before his stock skyrockets once the team makes it official.
Kenny Stills, WR (NO)--Despite recording only three receptions in Week 8, Kenny Stills was able to make the best of his limited opportunities, finding the end zone twice in the Saints win over the Bills. Stills has now scored touchdowns in back-to-back games, and while Drew Brees continues to spread the ball around to all receivers, he appears to have taken over as the deep threat, which is going to result in big plays moving forward. However, the same factor that will lead to his success may also limit his fantasy upside. The limited targets make it difficult to start him outside of the flex position, leading to a boom or bust label for the Saints downfield burner. With that said, there is still some upside moving forward, especially if Marques Colston continues to struggle and the fragile Lance Moore suffers another injury (which is bound to happen at some point).
Jonathan Stewart, RB (CAR)--Here we go again. The Panthers will be welcoming back Jonathan Stewart to the backfield mix, after missing the first half of the season with an ankle injury. The team has already stated that once activated from the PUP list, he will be used in the Panthers offense, making a mess of what has already been a headache between De'Angelo Williams and Mike Tolbert. While I don't recommend getting involved in situations like this, Stewart has the skill set to take over the role from Williams and Tolbert if given the opportunity. It is likely going to take an injury to one of the other backs before he is a viable fantasy option, but he is still worth adding in most fantasy formats to give depth to your roster as the fantasy playoffs approach. Just don't go crazy if you are in a league that uses FAAB for free agent acquisitions.
Digging Deep
Scott Chandler, TE (BUF)--With not many options to discuss from the tight end position following Week 8, Scott Chandler tops the list after a solid outing in the Bills loss to the Saints. Chandler was targeted 11 times by Thaddeus Lewis, hauling in seven catches for 72 yards, which tied him with Stevie Johnson in all three categories for the game. While Chandler isn't a TE1, with top options heading into bye-weeks the next few weeks, he becomes a decent option to get through the bye-week blues. It is hard to imagine he will get double-digit targets two weeks in a row, but considering Robert Woods has been MIA. the last few weeks, he may just be the second-best option in the Bills passing game.
Case Keenum, QB (HOU)--The former Houston Cougars standout has now taken his game to the professional level, and has been anointed the Texans starter for the second straight game after a solid Week 7 performance, despite Matt Schaub being cleared to play. In his only start of the season, he was able to manage the game well against one of the best defenses in the league, finishing with 13 fantasy points in standard leagues. His total would have been higher, but he was stripped and charged with a fumble lost on the team's last effort to take over the game. It is unknown if the team is planning on going with Keenum long term, but with a favorable schedule the rest of the way, he could be an option for those looking for a bye-week filler in the upcoming days.
Mike Brown, WR (JAC)--A lot of talk has been circulating around Justin Blackmon and Cecil Shorts this season, but those two players aren't the only names to know in Jacksonville. Mike Brown has now scored double-digit fantasy points in standard leagues in back-to-back games, despite limited targets in the Jaguars passing game. With most of the attention being placed on Shorts and Blackmon, Brown has become a reliable target for Chad Henne, and that shouldn't change anytime soon, considering the Jaguars will be playing from behind more times than not. Those looking for depth at wide receiver will want to give Brown a hard look because the team's schedule does not get much more favorable following their Week 9 bye.
Defensive Matchup Play of the Week
Oakland Raiders Defense/Special Teams--Coming off of a solid performance against the Steelers, the Raiders defense will be looking for a repeat when they welcome the Eagles to town. Recent news from Philadelphia indicated that Michael Vick will not be under center on Sunday, which downgrades the team's offense significantly after what we saw from both Nick Foles and Matt Barkley last time around. The Raiders are solid against the run and good enough in the secondary to have a chance to force turnovers, making them a sneaky play this week on the defensive side of the ball. In standard scoring leagues, the Raiders have totaled 10 or more fantasy points three of their last four games, and there is a good chance that will happen again this week in the Black Hole.

Dell's Death Not Greatly Exaggerated
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Dell (DELL) missed expectations in its third-quarter results and the company's hopes rest on its server and networking segment. But that's going to take a long time to outweigh the PC business.
Dell still generates nearly half of its revenue from its slowing PC business, and it's losing market share and mind share to smartphones and tablets, particularly those from Apple (AAPL), Samsung and Google (GOOG).
The Round Rock, Texas-based technology company earned 39 cents a share on a non-GAAP basis in the third quarter on revenue of $13.7 billion. Revenue fell 11% year over year, as desktop and mobility revenue decreased.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected Dell to earn 40 cents a share on $13.89 billion in revenue.Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White said he believes the results could've been worse, given the trends. "Given the challenging tech results over the past month, the growing macro fears and the weakening trends in the PC market, Dell's results and outlook had the potential to be much worse than reported," White wrote in a research note. White rated Dell buy with a $13.50 price target. Dell's bright spot in the quarter was its server and networking segment, which saw revenue rise 11% year over year, led by networking. Networking revenue grew 40% year over year, as Dell transitioned itself from being a PC-centric company to a software and services company, similar to IBM (IBM). Dell's issue is that it's taking longer to turn itself around than most expected, and that's weighing on the share price. Shares of Dell have fallen 34.65% year to date, compared to a 8.9% gain in the Nasdaq. Dell is not in an enviable position of turning itself around in a slowing economy. Perhaps some of that is due to waiting for Windows 8, but PC revenue still declined $1.5 billion year over year, as inventory remains high. Dell mentioned a slowdown in corporate refresh on the conference call, but expects it to pick back up in 2013. Deutsche Bank analyst Chris Whitmore noted that enterprise visibility is poor at best, with IT budgets being managed closely. Any positive impact Windows 8 would have is going to be muted at best for a while given the uncertainties facing the global economy, including the fiscal cliff, Europe, and others, Whitmore noted.

This call for peace is not likely to happen. Syria is now broiling in a civil war and no peace is escalating involvement with Turkey, Lebanon & Jordan. Anti-American terrorists are also now involved in fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad along with the indigenous Syrian rebels fighting for their Freedom.
United Nations Ban Ki-moon wants a ceasefire to provide a cooling off period to try diplomacy because the escalation of bloody warfare involving Al Qaeda is seen as a threat to stability in the region.
Al Qaeda is conducting major attacks in Damascus and other cities. There is a fear that Al Qaeda will gain control of Syria's chemical weapons. President al-Assas is key in any diplomatic peace. Al Qaeda is driving chaos to prevent diplomacy. The United Nations must realize by now there is not going to be any diplomatic peace without military force.
Please Pray - there will be no economic growth in the world without peace.

It may or may not be "the best film synopsis ever," as many have dubbed it, but Rick Polito's one-sentence summation of The Wizard of Oz, which he wrote in 1998, has become an unlikely internet sensation in recent days. It reads, in its entirety:
"Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets, and then teams up with three strangers to kill again."
Nothing inaccurate there, but it rather misses the spirit of the film–intentionally, of course, and with considerable wit.
I was curious to get the reaction of scholar Alissa Burger, who recently wrote a fascinating book about The Wizard of Oz in its many incarnations. She reports she laughed out loud upon reading it, adding "I can't tell you how many friends have posted this on my Facebook page or e-mailed it to me in the last week and a half!
"I find it particularly interesting in the way it takes The Wizard of Oz out of our genre expectations and conventions (a family film, a journey of self-discovery and friendship, etc.) and resituates them as the plot components of more of a thriller," she said.
She noted that this trend "has kind of taken YouTube by storm," mentioning the posting of a re-edited trailer for Stanley Kubrick's The Shining that makes the violent Jack Nicholson classic come across as a romantic comedy.
Such tongue-in-cheek takes on classic films "draw attention to those genre expectations that tend to be taken for granted," she said, noting that those expectations largely determine our response to a movie.
If you walked into The Wizard of Oz expecting an action thriller, would you walk out of the theater afterwards feeling disappointed, in spite of the fact it's one of the greatest films ever made? Quite possibly.
"Often it is context–and our ability to critically understand that context–that creates our understanding and response to a film," Burger said.
So turning these films on their heads isn't only entertaining; she also finds it "quite illuminating." Which is a good thing, since someone is probably remixing the trailers to Lincoln and Skyfall right now, turning Honest Abe into an action hero.

Tech Briefs: Napster "free" again, iPod nano², more
Napster has updated its pricing, claiming to now offer its music for "free." Of course, it's a far cry from Napster's original days offering free — and illegal — downloads; Napster allows you to play a song 5 times before charging you $0.99, or you can pay $10 a month and listen as much as you want. While allowing you to decide if a song is catchy enough to warrant a purchase certainly allows for more choice, it's doubtful if a significant number of consumers will ditch iTunes for it.… Analysts report that Apple is planning to double the capacity of the iPod nano and add basic video functionality to the popular music player. Increasing the capacity of the 2- and 4-GB nanos to 4 and 8 GB, respectively, the new nanos are expected to be released around September of this year. If the price point stays the same, predictions are for sales to be very good for the upgraded players in the holiday season.… ABC launched its new streaming service today, offering a test run of free, full-length episodes of shows, viewable online the day after they air. Offering new episodes of Lost, Desperate Housewives, Alias, and Commander in Chief, the new Web site makes viewers watch four 30-second commercials that are unskippable, although viewers can choose which commercial they want to watch. The test run lasts until the end of June, though ABC plans to bring it back for the fall season.

I'm not convinced that creatine increases DHT to the point of causing hair loss. I know this topic has been discussed extensively here before, but I've noticed that a single study claiming creatine causes hair loss is repeatedly cited. Could someone post a link to this study and any other studies that either support or deny its conclusion?
I know creatine makes the shortlist of most effective supplements, but if there's a risk that it may cause hair loss, I might consider stopping using it. I've been taking it for over a year at 3g four times weekly.

Robert Hunt
I. Have you ever wondered how a friendship begins?
A number of years ago I attended a conference on church history. On the first day of the conference, during the coffee break, a gentleman named Dr. Lee introduced himself. We talked over coffee and found that we had some common interests. It was the kind of conversation one often has with strangers. But over the next couple of days we did bump into each and visit. Each time we got to know each other a little better. Then on the 3rd day of the conference I presented a paper. After I finished Dr. Lee found me, and ask me if I had a moment to talk. He told me that he enjoyed the paper. But he also told me that it could be better. He saw some places that could be improved, some mistakes that could be corrected. At first I was a little taken aback, a little offended. I didn't know him that well, and wondered why he thought he had a right to criticize my work. But then he told me he wanted to publish my paper in a journal. If I could improve it, then he would publish it. This changed my whole attitude. I realized that he wasn't trying to make me feel bad. In fact he liked me enough that he was trying to help me improve, and reach my goals. In the years that followed we became good friends, and in fact he was the supervisor for my PhD. That friendship started when he showed he cared enough to correct me, and encourage me to do better.
My name is Robert Hunt, and my talk is "Prevenient Grace"
II. God is seeking a relationship with us.
Before we ever really know God, God wants to have a relationship with us. In fact God has put it in our hearts and minds to long for him in different ways. God has made us restless until we find something that transcends our narrow human world. Yet God does more. Because God is really our friend, and wants us to succeed and be the best we can be, God makes us aware of our mistakes and our sins. And God challenges us with a vision of deeper, fuller, human life in relationship with him.
A. God makes us restless.
1. One way in which God makes us restless is with a kind of intellectual yearning to understand where things come from, and where they are going. We see this in scientists who constantly try to understand the origin of the universe, and how it will end. We see it in children. I have a 6 year old friend named Philip, and almost every Sunday morning he has a question for me. Lately his favorite question is: "who made the tree in the garden?" and when I answer that it was planted many years ago he isn't satisfied. "Who made the seed?" he asks. And then "who made it grow?" "Where does the rain come from?" "Why does it rain?" He is curious, but curious in the way that God makes all of curious. We want to know why we exist, what purpose life has. And all the human and even scientific answers just don't satisfy. Only God can satisfy that longing.
2. In the same way we often long to understand beauty. Look at the little valley behind this house. It is so lovely. Where does natural beauty come from? When we see a beautiful painting we ask, "who inspired the artist", because we know that there must be some spirit greater than our humanity to bring out such beauty. The longing to know the inspiration behind the art, the longing to know the genius that made it possible for a human to do great things: this is a longing to know God.
3. And sometimes God draws us to know him through providence – by doing things for us that make us think that someone is looking out for us. A couple of weeks ago a friend called me up and asked if I could spend a day bicycle riding with him. I wanted to go, but I had a meeting on that day with my superintendent. Then a few minutes after my friend called my superintendent called to cancel the meeting. So we could spend some time together. And the next day as he and I rode, and talked, it became clear how badly we each needed to share our problems and concerns with a Christian friend. And we both felt that someone must have been looking out for us, and caring for us, to bring us together in that way. This feeling we get comes from God, who is looking out for us.
B. God helps us see our flaws.
Have you ever had an itch? You know, that feeling on your skin where you just have to scratch? Now have you ever had an itch you can't reach? In the middle of your back? That's the worst kind. But itching isn't bad. It's a way our skin tells us that something is wrong, that some kind of poison is hurting it. Did you know that God makes our hearts itch? When we do something wrong we feel bad. When we hurt someone we feel bad. Why? Because God made us for relationships with others, and with God. And our feeling of guilt, or feeling discontent with ourselves, is a kind of itch reminding us that hurting others, or doing things that are wrong, is poisoning us. And it's destroying our relationship with God. And we need something or it will get worse and worse. We need forgiveness. Bruce Springsteen sings a song you may have heard. "The Streets of Philidelphia." In it he says he would "walk 1000 miles to slip out of his skin." We know that feeling. We'd like to put the past behind us, get rid of our faults and mistakes, and be better people. And that is an itch only God can scratch. Because only God can remove the poison from our hearts, forgive us, and make us new people.
III. Prevenient Grace is God wooing us.
When I was growing up our church had something called a "box lunch supper" to raise money for missions. Women in the church would make up nice lunches, and put them in a beautifully decorated box. Then all these lunches would be auctioned off. Now a big thing was for a young woman to make a very special lunch for some young man she liked. Then she would let know which one was the one she made. And wait. She would wait to see whether he buy it, because although she might like him, she wanted him to be free to decide if he liked her. She wanted to give him something beautiful and delicious. But she didn't want to force it on him. She offered her love, but wanted him to love her freely.
And God is that way. God offers us many beautiful things that God has made. God reminds us that we need healing and forgiveness that only God can offer. But God also makes us free to choose whether we will have a relationship or not. This is God's prevenient grace. It woos us, and draws us, but it does not force us.
Over these three days I hope that you will think about the ways that God has drawn you to the mystery of the Divine through beauty, through the love shown by others, and through providence. You should take time to think about all the time God has saved you from evil by giving you a conscience, by making you hate what is wrong, or by making you long to be a better person. For God longs to be your friend, to both guide you into better ways and fulfill your hearts desire. And God is leaving you free to choose.

babayaga wrote:The text seems to suggest that damage is taken only if unhorsed, and is only equal to the attack base damage (rather than being multiplied by the degree of success -- the higher the degree, the higher the change of being unhorsed, after all). In fact, if "normal" damage rules were applied, most finalists would end up really, really beat up. But it's not 100% clear.

The series takes a hard left turn with my favorite chapter of the Precursor Legacy. Jak, Daxter, Samos, and Kiera have discovered a large Precursor artifact which, when activated, transports them to the dystopian futuristic Haven City, so named because its walls protect its citizens from dangerous...more

Hey, beauties! I have a ton of makeup reviews I'm working on right now, but in the meantime I wanted to share with you a NOTD post! I've been loving this new OPI polish from the Holland Collection, currently available at ULTA. Retailing for $8.00 this barbie pink contains tiny silver shimmers and is the perfect pop of color for spring or summer!
I've always loved OPI polishes, but I haven't had much luck with their lighter shades. They were always too sheer, even after 2+ coats. This shade however, is completely different. It's pigmented and completely opaque in two coats, plus its smooth formula makes it easy to apply and spread across the nail. Although this polish does contain shimmers, it doesn't make the polish feel rough or bumpy.
This polish will look fantastic with a tan and looks great on your toes or fingernails. Be sure to check it out before it sells out
- Retails for $8.00
- Opaque in 2 coats
- Contains shimmers
- Even, non-streaky finish
Let me know whats on your nails today!

It's been scientifically shown that some excess sediment, nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) and other pollutants associated with human land use can be diverted from small streams - the source of most of the nation's freshwater - with a riparian forest acting as a buffer zone or filtration barrier.
Centuries ago, all around Pennsylvania, on vast tracts of land once called Penn's Woods, some of the first forest to disappear was streamside riparian forest. Mostly, this was because it served as a wood source, but the land was also cleared for agricultural use and to provide access to irrigation.
In 1985, the Food Security Act established the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). It provided funds to remove some 45 million acres of highly erosive land from agricultural production and to establish stream borders of grass or trees.
Since 1998, a further extension, the USDA's Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP), has been billed as a premier conservation program. Early in 2005, Pennsylvania became the first state to mandate riparian trees to qualify for the state's CRP subsidy.
Lamonte Garber, Pennsylvania's agriculture program manager for the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF), speaks of the Buffer-Bonus Program for Plain Sect Farms in the Conestoga, Pequea, Octoraro and other watersheds. "With CREP, we have a federally funded program that enables us to build quality forested buffers at a net profit to the landowner, given that it also pays rent for the ground that's taken out of production," he explains.
The bonus provides an additional $4,000 for every acre of a CREP buffer, payable as a BMP (best management practice) Voucher. The funds must be used for other conservation work on the farm.
The bonus program attempts to promote buffers among Amish and Conservative Mennonites in soil-and-stream-rich Lancaster and Chester counties. Many are interested, but they're not necessarily acting on that interest. Traditionally, the move has been a hard sell among these groups, because they would prefer to actively manage and harvest the buffers, which is unacceptable in the program.
Still, buffers are as relevant for fruit, nut and vegetable growers as for livestock and crop producers.
"Buffers are BMP, whether you're growing beans or [raising] beef, and for mostly the same reasons," says Bern Sweeney, director, president and senior research scientist at the Stroud Water Research Center in Avondale, Pa., which has authored many studies on the value of buffers, an essential part of stream and Chesapeake Bay restoration. Since 1997, CBF has helped reforest about 2,000 miles (covering 25,000 acres) of streams in Pennsylvania.
However, Garber is clear that enrollment is not as strong as it was in CREP's earlier years, and vegetable, fruit and nut producers haven't been a particularly strong audience.
Briar Hollow was so named because when Stoltzfus bought the property in 1980, it was all briars, mostly multiflora rose, and the soil was depleted. "It was like a war [taming it]," he says. "My work is never done, and then I'm always getting into new things like this."
He's speaking of pursuing a forested buffer along 9 acres of Little Elk Creek. All spring he had visits from CBF, Stroud and other officials associated with CREP, a program a downstream neighbor has adopted, but one Stoltzfus is ambivalent about. He is interested mainly in memory of a friend, David MacLeod, a tree lover who died in a car accident this past summer.
Among the Amish, there's a clear dual necessity to planting trees as a buffer: to help ecology and improve water quality, but also to foster viable economic return to the grower. "I've been interested in talking about it, but like David told me, 'Ike, we can dress up that stream and make an example of Little Elk Creek, but in ways other than CREP.'"
Stoltzfus has observed the neighbor's, and flatly told those who have come knocking, "I do not want that on my farm."
MacLeod's experience with CREP, according to Stoltzfus, was "unsatisfactory." Just 16 percent of thousands of trees that he planted in growing tubes survived. "He became desperate for something different," Stoltzfus says. "One solution does not fit all."
Among MacLeod's ideas was that trees, if given a chance, would grow naturally on their own rather than in protective tubes. Though not Amish, as a friend of the sect, he also stressed that they could plant trees and continue to use the space for pasture and/or crops "and keep the land productive," as Stoltzfus says. "I'm just learning and feel like a fish out of water with David gone, but I'm fascinated by his ideas."
To make the stream corridor "useful," Stoltzfus says he would consider intentional planting of trees like sugar maples for maple syrup production, or even a long-term investment in holly trees or winterberry for seasonal cuttings to sell to florists. Other possible choices are pawpaws for their edible fruit, elderberries for jellies and jams, or even swamp oaks, because they were MacLeod's favorite tree.
CREP has a list of native species, and some produce edibles, Garber says, but the program forbids harvesting for commercial purposes. Based on geography, CREP also dictates a certain number of trees and shrubs per acre - 125 per acre in Lancaster County, 80 percent of which must be trees that are planted 20 feet apart, according to CREP specialist Ashley Spotts. Tubes are required.
"I'm not condemning CREP, but we would like to see production," Stoltzfus says. "I would think a program like that would sell itself - plantings that are productive on that land, not plantings on land that's set aside."
MacLeod also argued the benefit of closely planting trees in clustered rows in mulched beds, then over time culling some for replanting elsewhere, or growing trees out to maturity and using them for firewood sales. Fenced off on either side with strands of high-tensile wire, Stoltzfus can envision livestock poking under to feed and weed those beds. Even if the plantings are apple trees, the good apples would go to market, the bad for apple cider, and those beyond bad to hogs feeding beneath.
"David had really smart ideas," says Dale Hendricks, who co-founded North Creek Nurseries, a major propagation nursery in Landenberg, Pa., and now runs Green Light Plants, a smaller wholesale organic nursery in Landenberg that focuses on edibles. "Many of these ideas seem like new tricks, but they're really old tricks that are being rediscovered."
At Natural Landscapes Nursery, a 25-year endeavor in nearby West Grove, Pa., Jim Plyler's use of shrub and tree line plantings on 44 acres provides an example of what MacLeod preached. Plyler's plantings include pure American chestnut trees and the rare Franklinia. Discovered by botanists John and William Bartram and named for their father's friend Benjamin Franklin, the tree is extinct in the wild.
Stoltzfus' recent visits have been to discuss what natives to plant streamside, with the dual goal of planting for conservation and to make money. Along the walking tour, Plyler asks, "How do you grow a healthy stream?" Stoltzfus' response indicates that he's a willing convert: "We plant trees along it."
Whether Plyler is using tree lines as windbreaks and shade or as a future woodlot, he says having a stream without trees is like "putting cattle out without a pasture."
"You have to have woods by the streams," says Plyler. "It's the way it was for hundreds of years before the forests were cut down."
It was far easier to remove the forest than it will ever be to restore it, especially with the invasives and blights that have crept into native landscapes. Plyler says he's helped a few CREP clients and acknowledges that "it's a way to do it, and that's a good thing," but for someone making a living in agriculture, there should be other solutions. "We can do better," he says.
Jim MacKenzie of Octoraro Native Plant Nursery in Kirkwood, Pa., sells a lot of trees for buffers, and admits that while the state has already enrolled a large amount of its CREP acres, he's seen a pretty substantial decrease in demand for CREP plants lately. However, he's seen a slight increase in demand for CREP projects this fall as CBF and others are making inroads into the Amish community and getting them signed up. "This is a significant feat," he says.
Stoltzfus remains optimistic that he'll find the right fit for his family's farms. "I don't have all the answers," he says. "I'm just interested in practicing."
The author has been published in national and regional magazines as well as daily and weekly alternative city newspapers. A gentleman farmer in Quakertown, Pa., he writes about people, social trends, historic preservation and 18th-century America, agrarian culture, land use and sports and recreation topics.

Begin a soul-searching process to determine which business is right for you. You'll definitely have an advantage with a business that's a spin-off of your background or experience. You can also enjoy success in an area where you have strong interest yet lack experience, though you may need to qualify yourself through entrepreneurial training or professional certification programs.
Jot down the skills in your talent bank. What do you like to do with your time? What technical skills have you learned or developed? Do you have hobbies or interests that are marketable? Don't forget the personality factor. Do you like working indoors or outdoors? Do you enjoy working with the general public or with a few close clients? Every business has its own personality, and your own personality should be a complement to the one you finally choose. Talk with others in businesses similar to the ones you're considering about the traits and temperaments needed to be successful.
Keep searching until you find an idea that couples your love for the work with your marketable talents.

Hi!!!! I don't have any more fabrics here to sew so I post some of my older projects. I made this many years ago and took the photos before I leave the old island (my cute little kitten was then still alive!) For this top I used burda pattern 02-2008-123. I also made a matching self drafted mini skirt. I love this blouson pattern and I have used it many times to make everyday tops!! I used a very drapey lycra jersey this time and the result is the best with this material in my opinion!
Thanks for looking!
Sep 27, 2013, 05.03 PMby Moimisie
WOW Liliv…. you've been really busy if you haven't any fabric left! I wish I was that active! It looks super cute on you! And enjoy the fabric shopping you can now do guilt free!

The Youth Cycling Program visits Boston schools and other youth-serving organizations with a fleet of bikes and helmets, a team of instructors, and an active curriculum that gets kids and teens riding bikes.
Our program encourages bike riding among youth and teens by teaching them the skills to ride safely and creating sheltered opportunities to practice. We aim to increase physical activity as well as provide bicycle education. Our goal is for participants to have fun on bikes while being active and learning bicycle safety. Our program targets grades 2–12 students and seeks to foster a lifelong love of cycling from an early age.
One mission, many sites
We are a mobile program that operates on an application basis to serve a diverse range of schools. This includes elementary, middle, and high school sites, urban charter schools, special needs schools, girls-only academies, and sometimes local community centers. Our hosts at a school are often PE teachers, but any teacher can coordinate and host our visit. While our program follows certain parameters, we are happy to discuss tailoring our curriculum for the specific needs of a site.
Our program visits schools for 2 weeks at a time, with a team of professional instructors and a fleet of bikes and helmets. We aim to see each group of students 3–4 times in our visit; the first time we see students, we conduct a classroom-based interactive bicycle safety workshop. We discuss the importance of wearing a helmet, following traffic laws, and the safe maneuvering of the bike. Lessons are always age-appropriate. After the first day, lessons move to on-the-bike activities. Using a variety of drills and games, instructors reinforce the lessons of the week. Older classrooms may have the option of going on a group ride to local paths or parks. See our program in action at our Gallery below.
This program has been tremendously successful and well received at schools across Boston, with nearly 5,000 youth participating each year. We are often contacted by teachers after the program, who tell us about how much their students learned, improved behavior during our visit, and an increased rate of homework completion. Our visit is often the highlight of the year for students.
