This Friday, DJ Spooky will bring his Rebirth of a Nation show to Chapel Hill. This remix of NC native DW Griffith's "technically groundbreaking, but explicitly racist 1915 film." Spooky (aka Paul Miller) says "I hope to create a counternarrative, one where the story implodes on itself, one where new stories arise out fo the ashes of that explosion."
I saw a very early cut of this project at a Creative Commons Birthday and Sally saw an early complete performance at Spoleto in Spring 2004. This Friday we get to see it together at the newly refurbished and remodeled Memorial Hall.

An independent study conducted by the London University of the Arts has revealed that eating chocolate rich in flavanols can significantly help to protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation The study demonstrated that regular consumption of specially produced chocolate with preserved high cocoa flavanol levels can more than halve the sensitivity of the skin to UV light. These striking results are unprecedented and pave the way for new possibilities in nutritional protection against damage caused by the sun. It is estimated that 90% of all visible skin ageing is directly related to sun exposure.

Lord, now 71, equipped then with little more than charm, intelligence and a great deal of naive optimism, managed to meet -- and work his way into the lives of -- many an older luminary. Among them were Pablo Picasso and Dora Maar and Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas.
In his latest book, "Six Exceptional Women" (Farrar Straus Giroux), Lord recalls his encounters with Stein, Toklas, the saloniste and eccentric Marie-Laure de Noailles and the French actress Arletty, along with two less-celebrated women, the Greek patriot Errieta Perdikidi and his own mother, Louise Bennett Lord.
Lord, who has a tart tongue and seemingly total recall (backed up by his own extensive journals, which appear to rival those of his contemporary, Ned Rorem), writes in a polished, wicked and witty prose that spares few, least of all himself.
He has written five books, the best-known of them the critically praised "Giacometti: A Biography" (1985) and "Picasso and Dora: A Personal Memoir" (1983). Lord still spends most of his time in Paris -- when he isn't at his country house in the Languedoc -- and, he says, about two weeks a year in New York. On his most recent trip here he sat down for a talk in a friend's Greenwich Village apartment.
The most radical change in Paris today, Lord notes, is that "the most interesting, creative people are all gone, and nobody has come to take their place.
"The strange thing about it is there doesn't seem to be a real explanation for it," he says. "There are still people painting, writing music and books, but there's no new Picasso, no Stravinsky. I often ask my friends if they can think of a single really great creative person born after the First World War. There are highly creative people in the sciences. But in the arts, I can't think of a single one."

BILLINGS - Billings police are investigating the kidnapping of a 29-year-old man.
According to Lt. Kevin Iffland, officers responded to Extended Stay America at 4950 Southgate on a report of a kidnapping at 5:30 a.m. Thursday.
The police report states that two men contacted a female and Dejuan Laster, 29, at their hotel room.
The two male suspects told the couple from Illinois that they were FBI agents, although no identification was displayed. The suspects were armed with firearms. They zip tied the female and questioned her extensively about her boyfriend, Laster. They eventually released her.
Laster has not been seen since the incident and has been entered as a missing person nationwide. Laster is described as a black male, 6 feet tall, weighing 185 pounds.
The suspects are described as Hispanic males in their 30s. One is 6 feet 3 inches tall, while the other suspect is 5 feet 6 inches tall. Both men have black hair.
Vehicle descriptions of the suspects are a white suburban and a green car.
The Billings Police Detective Division is actively working the case. Anyone with any information should call Crimestoppers at 245-6660.

The bugs are back: Betty Brinn's "Bugs on the Balcony" exhibit returns
Either to patrons' absolute delight or absolute disgust, Betty Brinn Children's Museum will open its "Bugs on the Balcony" exhibit starting Friday, May 30, and running through the end of September. Returning for the second straight summer, the interactive outdoor exhibit offers kids a chance to learn about the stimulating – and, for some, shiver-inducing – world of insects.
Starting with the exhibit's grand opening from 10 a.m. to noon on Friday, children will be able to see and touch real insects at the Anderson Insect Zoo. And for families who find that a bit too hands-on for their taste, there is also the main exhibit, featuring a six-foot beehive structure, a giant build-a-bug activity and six different play table maze challenges – all of which with the goal of educating kids about their fellow creepy, crawling planet dwellers.
The museum's exhibits are free with regular admission, which is $8 per person, $7 for seniors and free for children less than a year old. For the rest of the summer, the museum is open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. and on Sundays from noon until 5 p.m.
For more information about the exhibit and the museum, visit the Betty Brinn Children's Museum's website.

According to Marc Berman from New York Post, Carmelo Anthony was followed into the arena by a trash-talking fan in Minnesota!
"Carmelo Anthony was confronted by a trash-talking Timberwolves fan entering the Target Center last night who harassed him about Kevin Garnett and followed Anthony to the Knicks' locker room. Garnett played 12 seasons in Minnesota."
The fan who immediately got kicked out of the building was trying to follow Carmelo Anthony and was mocking him about the altercation with Kevin Garnett earlier this season.
The Knicks won 100-94 against the Timberwolves behind Anthony's 36 points.

Not Made in America: 16 International Fast-Food Chains
You know McDonald's and other American fast-food brands have an extensive presence abroad, but they aren't the only fast-food game in town. These are the chains that locals are used to seeing in their hometowns around the globe. What other chains have you come across during your travels?
By Lauren Ramakrishna
Toast Box, Singapore
Started as a single food stall in Singapore in 2005, the Toast Box brand has spread across Singapore and into Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, and China. As stated on the restaurant's website, "Toast Box is a reflection of the coffee shops from the 60s and 70s, where the common practice for breakfast was a fragrant cup of Nanyang Coffee accompanied by freshly toasted bread." Some of the menu items that stand out: Peanut Butter Thick Toast, Laksa, Curry Chicken, and Ice Cream Thick Toast.

Another great type tee for designers. TypographyShop had taken on Bodoni this time. A fashion industry goto, it's a timeless face you can't help but love. White Bauer Bodoni and Black American Apparel. How can you go wrong? Grab it here.
Iconic director Woody Allen is suing American Apparel for $10 million in damages from the unauthorized use of his image. Billboards like the one pictured above have appeared in both New York and California, as well as online, as part of their latest ad campaign. Not a surprise to see AA embroiled in controversy. It pretty much seems to follow them, and of course that's all by design. With billboards like this. it's not surprising. I'm not a lawyer and certainly don't claim to know all the facts of Allen's lawsuit, but on the surface it sure seems like a pretty dick move by AA.
An American Apparel billboard in New York city was recently defaced. The billboard featured a topless women, seen from the back, bending over wearing very tight leggings. A vandal, or activist, spray painted the message "Gee, I wonder why women get raped?". The billboard was removed and replaced with something tamer.
American Apparel is known for it's racey ads and unique style. Guided by founder Dov Charney it's touted American made, sweatshop free products. It's marketed those products with often controversial, sexual charged imagery, frequently featuring it's own employees.

Stumbled across an interesting article on AdBusters.com about a small publication out of Toledo Ohio named Clamor that has American Apparel running for it's attorney's. The upcoming article apparently makes claims that go against many of American Apparels widely touted hi-brow business practices. I'll leave our true T-Shirt afficiandos to read up themselves but it looks like a potentially interesting show down. If you're intersted in learning a bit more about the t-shirts you're very likey wearing check out our post about Dov Charney, American Apparel's founder.
If you're not familiar with Mister Shape shirts, you should be. They've got a nice selection of designer tees, a cool looking site, and the opportunity to get something that you're not likely to see anyone else wearing. They feature quality American Apparel shirts run off in limited numbers – an interesting concept for something were used to seeing mass produced. The shirts featured here are the Balance tee and the Refresh tee.
For those of you not familiar with American Apparel, let us acquaint you with a typical ad. American Apparel has long used it's own employees as models and pushed the envelope (to use a horrible cliche) with the look, feel and content of it's advertising. Case in point – Melissa – taking a shower in a t-shirt. It's not everyday you see major shirt retailers selling wet t-shirts in a shower. If you're interested in learning a bit more about the brand behind the racey ads check out this post, which is an interview with founder and CEO Dov Charney. American Apparel is also doing some cool stuff with video podcasts. Check them out.
We're probably going a bit deep into t-shirt culture for our casual readers, but so be it. Dov Charney, the founder and CEO of American Apparel recently appeared on Charlie Rose. You can watch the interview on Google video here. (You'll need to advance the video to the 30 minute mark, as Dov's interview is the second on the show). Most of our readers who own t-shirt shops probably know a fair amount about American Apparel t-shirts. A lot of our casual readers may not have a clue, but probably have more than a few American Apparel tees in their collection.
American Apparel is giant in the shirt industry and has created a unique reputation for using non-sweat shop labor – all based in the United States – and typically pay twice the minimum wage. Their ad campaigns have featured edgy contemporary photography, using employees as models. In building their brand they have done a fantastic job at creating more than just product awareness, but an actual t-shirt culture.
You can buy online or at one of many American Apparel brick and mortar stores. If you're interested in learning a bit more about the company and its culture hit their corporate site, and make sure you watch the Dov Charney interview on Charlie Rose.
The classic wife beater has spawned the boy beater. American Apparel has got great stuff, if you're not familiar. Even better is shopping for it at Karmaloop.com. The whole wife beater / boy beater branding got some big play a few weeks ago when somebody protested over the use of those terms in a print ad. I'm sorry I'm slim on details, but I heard it played out on a talk radio show. It was really ridiculous all in all. It's just a shirt people. Nobody is going to beat their wife or boy because they're wearing one or reading an ad. Chill.

Hi Everyone,
Tis the season for holiday parties - work, family and friend get togethers. Do you look forward to dressing up during the holidays and if so, what do you like to wear to these type of events?
I am 23 and have quite a few work parties coming up this month. Just curious what some of my sisters (and guys) feel might be appropriate to wear to these events. All of the events will be held at really nice venues, some with vendors or clients and our company party as well. Should I wear a red or black skirt suit, a dress with sequins, sweater dress or leather skirt with maybe an angora sweater?

The newly installed commission is also comprised of Commissioner Vince Boccard, who was re-elected unopposed, and Commissioner Tom Powers, whose term ends in November 2012.
"I thank you, the voters, for giving me this opportunity to serve," Mayor Roy Gold said. "This 27 year journey started from being a lifelong volunteer to becoming the Mayor of the 13th largest City in Florida. I am so grateful to be part of this hardworking organization that's passionate about getting the policies right and taking steps to gain support and implementation."
"I want to say very simply, thank you. Thank you for your support and for being here today. I promise to serve you with honor and humility," Vice Mayor Claudette Bruck said.
"My journey started back in 2002 and I want to thank everyone for all of their support," Commissioner Vince Boccard said.
"I want to be your representative…our brightest days are ahead of us," Commissioner Larry Vignola said. "The reason I decided to do this was for them [daughters] and these children here. I want to make sure Coral Springs is the best place for them to raise their families also."
The Mayor serves a two-year term of office and City Commissioners serve four-year terms of office, except for Vignola who will serve the remainder of the current term. To view the new Mayor and commissioners' bios, please visit www.CoralSprings.org/Commission.

If I can make a generalization about humans, I think we all like to be remembered in a positive light. It is better to be thought of as that charming person you wished you could've talked to for a little bit longer at that get-together, for example, rather than the person who was weird and kind of mean to everybody for no reason and you got stuck talking to them for too long and had to excuse yourself to the bathroom even if you didn't have to go. Or, at your funeral, it would be nice if lots of people told stories of your generosity and kindness, rather than if they talked about how you were kind of a racist, especially towards the end. But you don't always have such control over the way people remember you. It only takes a brief moment for someone to form a lasting opinion, and lots of things that are otherwise unrepresentative of who we are can happen in that brief moment. We're only human.
But sometimes those brief moments provide a glimpse into a person's true self they would otherwise try to hide from the world. Like in this case, with this guy who DEFINITELY, in private, ALWAYS forgets he has sunglasses on and then tries to put his eyedrops in over his sunglasses, forgot that he had sunglasses on and tried to put in eyedrops when the whole world could see! What a dummy! FOREVER A DUMMY, THIS GUY! (Via Abroath.)

Spare Change
Nedra is a consultant, author and speaker who uses social marketing to promote health and social issues for nonprofits and public agencies at Weinreich Communications.Email me
The event left me humbled and heartened; I guess the best way to put it is that the event left me affected. And I admit to wiping tears from my eyes when Hillary Clinton hit the stage. Whether you voted for her or not, she has done momentous, moving things in her career. Matter of fact, whether you agree with the views or parties of any of the political leaders that were present, I hope we can all agree that these people have accomplished much (as anything else would be downright myopic).
And I give compliments to BOTH presidential candidates for doing well at Thursday night's Presidential Summit. I didn't come at this event to judge, but to listen. You see, this event was not a debate because this event was about uniting us all around something on which we all agree: the need to place service, in its many and myriad forms...spanning improvements to education to bettering our nation's health to eradicating our plummeting levels of poverty...into a place of more prominence in our country, to garner more participation from the public and the need to shift many of our existing perceptions around service.
And if we're talking prominence and participation---and most definitely when we're talking perceptions--we are talking my language. Um, marketing anyone?
#1 Exalt prominence: As a nation we have plenty to be proud of on service--many don't realize what a strong nation of volunteers and efforts to improve social conditions we can boast. But we haven't placed this as prominently as other departments. Governor Schwarzenegger and wife Maria Shriver have worked hard to get California to appoint a Service Director to its cabinet level--and both McCain and Obama vowed to add this position to their cabinets at the federal levels as well. There are bills dedicated to service that are currently in Congress and ServiceNation unleashed a Declaration of Service that many signed at the event.
#2 Increase participation levels: Whether through activism, advocacy or volunteerism, our nation can increase its level of time dedicated to service. Corporations can make it easier for workers to dedicate a portion of their time to charities. Individuals can learn how to spend a few less hours watching TV and instead teach a child or an adult to read. As marketers we can lend a few spare hours a month to helping a charity with their promotional needs. Point is, we can get creative, and dedicating time to service can be both impactful and tenable amid busy schedules.
#3 Shift pre-existing Perceptions: Obama hit on how we "need to make service cool again" and Schwarzenegger hit on how we need to "leave a space open on our resumes for service," while Bon Jovi wants to make "service the new black, always in high fashion." The thing is, we need to shift perceptions around (1) how much service improves our country and its citizens and (2) whom all can dedicate time to service. Remember, while the young have unparalleled levels of energy, older segments have unprecedented wisdom that can only be gained through experience--with retirees having more time they can allot to important causes (I will talk more on this later as, just like AARP underscored, we need to stop viewing the 50+ segment as a deficit when, in fact, they will likely be our biggest asset).
In closing, I would be remiss if I did not extend my gratitude to three entities:
First, to ServiceNation: The event itself--and the overall movement--is a marketing brainchild. BRAVO! There are many organizations dedicated to improving the country's many issues and pushing for social change so to nestle them all under "service" was clever. What's more? ServiceNation is only about 18 month's old, which makes their tireless efforts all the more impressive.
Second, to Echo Ditto: I am beyond impressed at how professional and respectful the EchoDigital Team were to we bloggers (big props to Brian Reich and Joseph Porcelli). They ensured we were well communicated to and had proper accommodations. So much so that, as a professional, I would have no reservations about recommending them to my clients who need help in bolstering communications and communities around their special events.
Third, to Nedra Kline Weinreich: Nedra is both teacher and friend to me. She not only provided me the reference to attend the event, Nedra helps me every day. She's taken the time to teach me new strategies and methods on social marketing (which is NOT the same thing as social media--read more here). I find that teaching another is one of the most giving things we can do for another person; in this case it's a huge act of service in bettering our profession.
PS: Yes, those are pictures from speakers at the event. I needed to take shots of the large screens as I wasn't close enough to the stage to get clearer pictures (and Schwarzenegger attended via video feed). I hope it's OK that I placed photos of the big names in this post...as I said in my opening, it's just not every day that I'm in the company of 500 of them.
Nedra here again. A big thanks to CK for her reportage and analysis, as well as the very kind things she said about me. If you would like to read other bloggers' takes on the summit, here are some links:The New Service

Future Leaders in Philanthropy (FLiP)
I'm both honored and over the moon to be attending ServiceNation's Summit on September 11th and September 12th. I'll be blogging a wrap-up of the event...and oh what an event it will be.Allison Fine, Anthony Showalter and Lara Galinsky of Echoing Green, and others I know who are awaiting their security clearance.
For two days over 500 leaders will convene in NYC for a moratorium on politics, to wholly focus on service. The lineup of speakers is mind-blowing (and make me feel oh so small) including Barack Obama, John McCain, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Bloomberg, even Alicia Keys, Jon Bon Jovi, Kenneth Cole, Usher and the CEO of Habitat for Humanity (my FAVE nonprofit organization).
See why I'm over the moon?
I'll be posting after the event, and I'll twitter when I can, but I wanted to first give you some background:
"ServiceNation Summit , Sept. 11-12 in New York city, will bring together 500 leaders of all ages and from every sector of American life —from universities and foundations, to business and politics—to celebrate the power and potential of citizen service, and lay out a bold policy blueprint for addressing America's greatest social challenges through expanded opportunities for volunteer and national service.
The Summit will begin with a presidential candidates' forum the evening of September 11, where Senators McCain and Obama will speak in depth about their views on the role of citizenship and service in post-9/11 America. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg will welcome the attendees when the proceedings continue the following day, and the summit will conclude with a keynote address by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who earlier this year became the first governor to create a cabinet post dedicated to service and volunteering."
ServiceNation is a campaign for a new America. An America where citizens unite and take responsibility for the nation's future. An America that restores the great tradition of citizen service, and honors the profound sacrifices made by so many Americans who have passed before, from the small band of Founders to the millions who have fought for equality and justice at home, and defended our freedom abroad. ServiceNation is about an America that is ruggedly idealistic, compassionate, and above all committed to the idea of shared sacrifice in pursuit of America's boldest promise: liberty and justice for all."
I will be joined by my fellow colleagues'/marketing bloggers: David Berkowitz, David Reich and Alan Wolk...so watch for posts and tweets from us all. Lastly, I need to give a HUGE shout-out and HEAPS of gratitude to Nedra Kline Weinreich for recommending me to attend this event. Unfortunately, since she's on the West Coast she won't be able to attend (and will have to vicariously experience the event through me); but she has truly made my year. I'll be cross-posting on this blog and her blog about the event.

It�s 3 a.m., weeks since the funeral. Sleep hasn�t come easy � sometimes not at all. You�re tired, perhaps even agitated; and for the first time, feeling truly alone.
Everyone says, �Life goes on, and in time things will get better.� When? How? How do you begin living again? How do you regain control? Where do you find the answers?
�It�s a scenario common for those who�ve lost a loved one � the seemingly endless questions, the uncertainty in taking the necessary next steps to move forward,� says Widowed.ca founder Jennifer Black.

After ten years away from academia, I ran into a friend who's retiring this week. I was eager to hear her perspective on emotional contagion at her university as she embarks on the free-thinking life. Her examples were striking.
1. Hating Israel is the current craze.
Public raging at Israel is widespread among ostensible proponents of peace and tolerance. Only a small minority on campus holds this view, my friend said, but few dare refute it in public. its consistent with the pattern of every course - that blaming the white man is the safe position. Israel is a safe target to vent at - perhaps the only socially approved place to vent frustrations inflamed by a culture of constant critique and hypersensitivity.

If you're after the perfect Christmas tipple, we've got a tasty range of Sherries from Vinceramos, a selection of organic spirits, an array of well priced sparkling wines and some wintry ales from some of our favourite suppliers!
Last Modified - 12th December 2014
While we still have an abundance of hardy UK winter veg (more on this later), the range has an increasingly European flavour as we move towards Christmas.
November and December is usually a good period for European ratatouille type veg, especially if the Spanish weather is mild (like this year). Crops such as peppers, courgettes and aubergines definitely love the sunshine and loathe the cold. But equally, once the thermometer hits the mid-thirties, they tend to suffer with the plants wilting and flowers falling off. So with Andalucia basking in 20 degree sunshine, there is an abundance of good value (and great tasting) ratatouille to be had.
Fruit wise, the citrus season is in full swing. Clementines and lemons offer particularly good value. The navel oranges taste great too
not as sweet as they will become once the sugars develop in January/February, but really juicy and nicely balanced flavour. Unfortunately, it looks like the first blood oranges may not be until the new year sorry!
Back on these shores, winter staples are the order of the day. Rooty crops like celeriac, parsnips, carrots, beetroot and swede store well in the ground, and will keep going strong in spite of the plummeting temperatures. Still plenty of hardy brassicas on offer, with the cavolo nero from Strawberry Fields in Lincolnshire being the star of the show.
Local salad leaves are very limited, and are likely to be a gap over the next few weeks. We plan to plug the gap with a mixture of hardy French salad leaves (plus there is still rocket from Lincolnshire).
Price Check 9/12/14, Morrisons non-organic Vs Unicorn organic

As you'll probably notice when youre shopping or even just passing by, we are undertaking a large scale refurbishment of the first floor of the building.
Work commenced mid-August and with a short delay to the original schedule, will now finish in late December. We hope that the impact on customers will be minimal the shop shouldn't be affected and we are working with a local co-operative architects and a building firm who both really understand how little disruption we want to trading.
Despite the challenge of operating with very little office or staff space for 4 months, we are VERY excited about this project!
Keen to keep our focus on the basics of running the shop, we have always avoided taking on too many extra projects in one go. Since buying the building in 2002 weve been concentrating on improving the trading space, plus buying land to reduce the distance between field and fork, and then getting a decent form of energy established for the growers. Now we have saved up the cash to make much needed improvements to the fabric of the building itself.
The refurb is happening in order to do various things:
1) Increase food production space to increase our offer of good value, fresher, more affordable Unicorn-made meals to sell at the deli counter.
2) Improve our thermal envelope - we inherited a building that is cold, leaky and pretty shoddy upstairs - its time to improve this. So, were rebuilding the walls to include loads of insulation, getting new windows, replacing the roof, and finishing the whole thing off on the outside with sustainable Scottish larch.
3) Renew our hot water and heating system, to make the best use of the existing solar panels.
4) Make the space a better space to work and meet in. Check out the facebook album too see photos of the upstairs as it has been for the past 8 years. We need a space where we can all meet every week (there are nearly 60 of us now) to efficiently communicate as a worker co-op, plus decent offices to do our accounts, order our stock, meet suppliers, and do the strategic planning needed for our business. We look forward to doing these things minus the gloves and hats we usually wear half of the year!
5) When its all done, the building should look better from the outside too, making a big lego brick of concrete a little less imposing and nicer to look at for everyone.
Well keep customers updated here, in the shop and on our facebook page, especially if any significant disruptions to trading are expected (we hope not!). Bear with us and hopefully the next 4 months will fly by!
Photos of refurb
Unicorn co-op members have been up at Glazebury helping out the fantastic tenant farmers on our land, Moss Brook Growers. Here's what we've been up to recently. Check out our facebook album for photos.
Mijke (August 2014)
When I went to Moss Brook on hot summers day a few weeks ago, I had this romantic picture in my head of harvesting crops, arms laden with bounty, chewing on straw etc. but it was REALLY HARD WORK.
I spent most of the day digging docks, beautiful rooty, back breaking weeds. I understand most of the guys' time on the land has been spent getting rid of these creatures to make the land ready for growing - respect.
At the end of the day I got to plant baby squashes on the two seated tractor that makes the little trenches in the ground and then covers it again once you've put the plant in (see pic). Can't wait to see the fruits in the shop later in the year.
PS. Thanks for the farmer's tan!
Frith (August 2014)
My day started with a chat about how things were going in general. I was interested to see the farm crop plans, laid out in blocks, then split into lines, three rows of crop within each. I enquired if the recent dry weather has caused problems but thankfully due to the irrigation system only one young crop of leeks were lost.
Rob outlined the day's activities, all 'maintenance'. If you ask people what a veg farmer does I think most would initially think of either planting or harvesting. In reality it is the day to day care of both crops and land which takes the most time.
I spent the morning hand hoeing round broccoli plants. An effective way to keep them weed free without pesticides. It was hard work (I have a blister to prove it!) but it is essential to keep on top of weeds.
After a quick lunch Rob walked me round the rest of the land. Celery, leeks, squash and beetroot all looking great. It was also lovely to see a row of tree protectors containing rosemary plants, recently planted. In between the rosemary plants hazel trees are due to be planted. They will provide a much needed windbreak and further habitat for the land's nature.
Next I moved on to the never ending task of 'Docking'. Digging out countless dock plants. It sounds simple enough but it can be really tricky to cleanly get ever last root out. If even the smallest piece is left the plant with quickly spring back.
I left the day with a sense of pride that I had in some small way helped some little plants to grow big and strong. To quote Rob ' It's like being a parent and a doctor'!
Donna (August 2014)
Rob picked us volunteers up from Unicorn car park at 7am for an early start. On the way Rob pointed out the location and told us a bit about Moss Brook farm and its evolution over the past 5 years. Upon arrival we were shown around the farm and given more information. The barn itself has a solar panelled roof and a resident swift family nested inside. One of the biggest expenses at the beginning has been the pipe leading down to an underground reservoir below the farm which is used for irrigation of the land (cool!).
I was informed about crop rotation and the need for letting one field rest every year. The resting field is covered with clover which naturally puts nitrogen back into the soil. The soil itself at the farm has Grade 1 peat content, making it perfect for growing organic veg.
Shortly after being given an abundance of interesting info we got stuck into the work. In the morning I harvested Spinach heading for Unicorn and Manchester Veg People. Spinach stalks are edible and according to one farmer, delicious in a spinach curry :) The spinach was then weighed and bagged before its final journey.
When all the veg was weighed and bagged we moved onto clearing dockweed. Aaaggghhhh! Dockweed is a pervasive weed that absorbs nutrients from the soil; each plant has 6000 seeds and is one of an organic farmers nightmares. They have to be carefully dug out of the ground, then taken off site and burnt. Its back breaking work and needs constant weeding to prevent them from spreading and absorbing the vital nutrients in the soil.
In the afternoon we planted 9,600 vegetables, two types of kale and two types of broccoli. Yummy!
After my day on the farm I came away having even more respect for organic farmers and the hard work that goes into providing people with an abundance of gorgeous organic produce. I found working with Moss Brook growers an inspirational experience.
Laura (June 2014)
My second time at the farm began with a little introduction about the farm and how it operates.
Moss Brook Growers maintain a healthy soil by rotating their crops and planting, among other things, white clover. They have also created a beautiful wildflower bed, a delicious and colourful feast to increase biodiversity.
I was devastated to see many of the broccolis we planted on my previous trip, had been eaten by slugs. We pretty much hoed and dug out docks all day. It was a hot-sunny day... which believe me... its not something you want when working at the farm.
I'm absolutely amazed for the love and passion these growers put in. Hats off to them for all the patience, perseverance and hard work.
Debbie (June 2014)
I hadnt been up to the land for almost a year and the difference was amazing. I hadnt yet seen the borehole and irrigation system, the wildflower corner or the 60 solar panels on the barn. Plus the hundreds of metres of hedging plants that were put in a couple of years ago have turned into beautiful mixed native hedge, that looks like its been there for decades!
Rob showed us round and summarised what theyve been up to, then it was straight into some hoeing of the broccoli crop. Really hard work, you have to put your back into it especially as this was the part of the land damaged by United Utilities when they laid a huge water main under one of the fields. Mixing up the subsoil with the topsoil plus all the machinery moving around on it has caused compaction of the soil, so its really hard to work. I had no idea how different layers of the soil worked, but Rob explained that diluting the rich, living topsoil with the clay subsoil had a massive impact and you can also really see how it affects crop growth (you can tell just by looking at the crops where the pipe is laid).
Our other main task for the day was getting rid of any flowering dock plants so that Rob could mow the next day. Theyd had a tractor out of use for 10 days (being fixed) so mowing had been delayed and some had gone to seed a disaster with docks because theyre such a pest. They have to be collected and burned offsite because their seeds are so resilliant!
The whole time we were working we were surrounded by wheeling lapwings, one of my favourite birds. They have two breeding pairs on the site and others around definitely something to celebrate as lapwings have been declining in the UK since the 1920s because of changes in farming practices.
It was eye-opening working with Moss Brook for just a few hours and seeing just how hard farming is. I thought working in the shop was tiring but this was on another level.

We think theres room for a Unicorn-type store in every city, and perhaps more besides. We have no plans to expand outside the one shop, so weve put together a guide intended to help facilitate the emergence of new stores run on similar lines.
Starting a new business is a daunting process. The guide is based on the model Unicorn has tried & tested since 1996, and walks potential grocers through all areas of the business, in the hope that it will make starting a new shop an easier process and help existing shops improve and/or expand.

Turkish police have fired tear gas and water cannons to disperse thousands of people protesting an education reform bill that opponents say will boost the influence of Islamic schools, a move seen as contrary to Turkey's secular constitution.
Police broke up the demonstration in Ankara on Thursday, ending a two-day standoff with protesters who wanted to march toward Parliament where the bill is being debated.
The government wants to overturn a 1997 law that kept students under 15 years old from attending religious "imamhatip" schools. That law led to a sharp decline in attendance at the schools.
A Reuters witness said protesters threw stones at riot police on Thursday as they moved in to break up the demonstration after refusing the group's request to march on parliament. There were further clashes in side streets.
Similar demonstrations held elsewhere in Turkey on Wednesday were also broken up by police.
Several demonstrators were hurt in the clashes on Thursday, but t here were no reports of detentions or major casualties among protesters at the rally organised by the KESK public workers union confederation.
Parliament is hotly debating a bill overturning the 1997 law, that was imposed with the backing of the military.
Parliamentarians on Thursday accepted a proposal from Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's AK Party to offer optional courses on the Quran and the Prophet Mohammad's life for middle and upper school pupils - from about 10 to 18 years old.
The assembly was expected to approve the bill in the coming days and the AK Party is able to call on a large parliamentary majority to push the law through.
The 1997 law had led to a sharp decrease in the numbers at iman hatip schools which were originally set up to train Muslim clerics. Erdogan and half his cabinet attended such schools.
The main secular opposition People's Republican Party (CHP) agrees on the need for education reform, but says Erdogan is seeking revenge for the 1997 law and attempting to bring about his stated desire to raise a "religious youth".
While the AK Party has won three elections since 2002 and remains popular, there is a large minority of urbanised Turks who are wary of its roots in political Islam and suspect it has plans to overturn, piece-by-piece, the secular republic.

Four Triathlon Resolutions You Can Keep
- By Sarah Wassner Flynn
- Published Jan 4, 2012
- Updated Oct 31, 2014 at 4:37 PM UTC
Haven't hammered out that resolution list yet? Here are four goals to go for this year—and tips on how to get 'em done.
For more ways to make your triathlon goals happen this year, check out the story "No Excuses" in the February 2012 issue of Triathlete, on newsstands Jan. 10.
Resolution #1: Run Better Off the Bike
Even the most seasoned runners fall victim to that familiar "dead legs" feeling after dismounting the bike, but there are ways to power through. "As triathletes, we never run fresh," says pro triathlete Tim O'Donnell of Boulder, Colo., one of world's top-ranked long-distance racers. "So we need to learn to how to run fast when tired." A longtime swimmer, O'Donnell's transformation to a triathlete entailed completing all of this runs off of the bike or out of the water. "For long runs, I would spin for 45 to 60 minutes before the run to adapt," he says. "I would also do my easy runs after hard swim sessions on the treadmill."

RELEASED: April 14, 2006
Russell Palma
EAU CLAIRE — Russell Palma, professor of physics and astronomy at Minnesota State University-Mankato, will present "NASA's Genesis and Stardust Missions: Exploring the Early Solar System" at 4 p.m. Wednesday, April 26, in the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's Phillips Science Hall, Room 117.
The presentation will feature photos, as well as short film pieces, related to the Genesis and Stardust space missions to illustrate discoveries about the sun and early solar system.
NASA's Genesis space probe lifted off in 2001, and its capsule crashed into the Utah desert in 2004, shattering delicate wafers holding samples of atoms and ions collected from the solar wind between Earth and the sun. Since the crash, researchers have sifted through the fragments to locate data, and they have recently begun releasing their findings.
The Stardust mission took off in 1999, returning in January after a seven-year, 3-billion-mile space trek. Scientists are examining dust particles that the probe collected during its passage through the tail of comet Wild-2 and from interplanetary space.
Palma worked both on-site and in collaboration with scientists at NASA-Johnson Space Center in Houston for a number of years and served as a NASA/ASEE Summer Faculty Fellow in 1983 and 1984.
Palma is also an adjunct professor of physics at the University of Minnesota and has served as a senior research associate at Texas A&M University in College Station; a research physicist at the University of California-San Diego; an associate professor at Butler University in Indianapolis; a faculty member at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas; and a research associate at Rice University in Houston.
The event, sponsored by the physics and astronomy department, is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Paul Thomas, professor in physics and astronomy, at (715) 836-3615 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Jennifer Katherine Gates is the eldest daughter of Bill and Melinda Gates, the wealthiest couple in the world. The name of Bill gates needs no introduction even if you have nothing to do with computers as he is the owner and CEO of Microsoft Corporation. Jennifer was born to Bill and Melinda in 1996. Bill is a doting father who loves Jennifer the most. He recently paid a huge amount of money (nearly $1 million) to rent a property in Palm Beach Florida to provide an ideal place to Jennifer to indulge in her hobby of horse riding. This property is very close to the actual site in Palm Beach where Winter Equestrian Festival is held every year. Jennifer will thus be able to compete with nearly 3000 riders taking part in the competition.
(Jennifer Katharine Gates's fake photo)
Recently the name of Jennifer Gates was one of the most searched names on search engines for the simple reason that there were splashed some photos of a beautiful young girl being claimed as the eldest daughter of the wealthiest couple in the world. Most people around the world have only heard about Jennifer Gates and have not seen her photos as Gates couple has maintained a lot of secrecy to protect the interests of their kids so far. Assuming her to be a grown up kid all of 15, there have been scores of websites pasting photos of a Hollywood actress claiming her to be Jennifer but it seems Bill Gates would keep secret of the true pictures of her beloved daughter right?
Though Bill gate's networth is more than 60 billion, Jennifer Katharine Gates and the other children of Bill's networth will be far less from it because Bill had already determined to donate most of his wealth to charity.
