Euforquestra By John Kuhlman Published March 16, 2007 Explorations In AfrobeatEuforquestra Productions
This is the latest from a group of kabloonas from Iowa City who are channeling a serious Afro-beat vibration in the heartland. Working on a fusion of Cuban and African sounds, some members of the band have not only traveled to Cuba to study the music there, but have also developed some level of commitment to the native Santeria faith as well; several tracks feature introductory invocations to the African gods. Not certain if this is the secret to their musical prowess, but they have remarkable success reproducing the Afro-beat sound, stretching out on long spacious tracks of taut, elegant funk, propelled by loops of circling guitar and bass and punctuated, when needed, by a tight, percolating horn section. Probably not enough to make you throw out your favorite Fela Kuti albums, but still it's nice to know that a fire this warm is burning out there in the cornfields.

I am seeing some little red seeds or fruit or whatever now that the leaves are almost gone. Are these the seeds and if so what next. Do I pick them, let them drop, and when do I sow them. What about winter sowing them and if so is now the time?? As always,Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Burning bush seeds a found in the red fleshy aril that are with in the fruit. Clean the seed and give them 1-3 mo cold startification. Seeds may be planted directly ourdoors in fall, sown into pots and kept outside for germination or brought inside once the chilling requirements have been met. |
Let me explain what I did. I picked the red fruit. I opened it and there was another redish orange covering which I then opened and found one clear ivory looking seed. Is this right? Thanks so much. |
Do I take the seed out of the red fleshy aril that is with in the fruit BEFORE sowing or sow it with the fleshy aril? |
It's usually best to clean any seeds well of any pulp or fleshy bits from the fruit - they may contain germination inhibitors. i.e. - The Clothiers site recommends scrubbing euonymus seed 3 x per day for seven days before sowing |
- Posted by pink_warm_mama_1 Z4 Maine (My Page) on Mon, Oct 23, 06 at 19:53
In many areas it is requested that burning bushes and seeds not be planted as the birds are known to distribute the seeds so completely, the bb's that result outnumber the indigenous plants and crowd them out. You may want to check your area. |
- Posted by gretchenmi Zone 5 (My Page) on Mon, Oct 30, 06 at 19:01
Any help here would be very appreciated....I have the Burning Bush seeds cleaned of any pulp and am wondering what next...Keep cold for 1 - 3 months and then can I winter sow them indoors?....It is almost November here in Michigan and it said to sow in fall????......How deep to plant...cover...warmth...?.....Would like to start some indoors this winter for spring planting.....Any help would be wonderful again...Quecha |
It's on the 'Invasive Plant List' don't plant it. Find something else that turnings red in the fall. |
Sow the seeds about 1/4" deep and chill for 3 months. Whether you chill indoors or out you can bring the seeds to normal growning tmeps after the three months is up. |

Hi Mary, I found seeds on mine and they were germinating right on the plant. I did some research and found this....Propagation Seed - best sown as soon as it is ripe in a cold frame. Stored seed requires 8 - 12 weeks warm followed by 8 - 16 weeks cold stratification and can then be sown in a cold frame[78, 98]. When they are large enough to handle, prick the seedlings out into individual pots and grow them on in the greenhouse for at least their first winter. Plant them out into their permanent positions in late spring or early summer, after the last expected frosts. Cuttings of half-ripe wood, 5 - 8cm long taken at a node or with a heel, July/August in a frame. Very easy[200]. heres a link where the article was posted.....http://www.pfaf.org/database/plants.php?Euonymus+alatus+apterus hope that helps. |
- Posted by redthreaddiy 6 (My Page) on Thu, Nov 11, 10 at 18:10
YES - pink_petunia is right. What I did was planted the seeds 1/16" in peat moss in a milk jug that I cut in half, indoors in November. I misted the top of the peat each day. In February, I taped the top of the milk jug onto the bottom and placed it outside. Once the weather got a little warmer, I could see the seedlings. |

I have a friend who, if there is liquid near, will find a way to drop her phone in it. The toilet seems to create panic among most cell phone users. According to a new survey, 59% of people would reach into the toilet for their smartphone - 63% admitted they would go through the garbage. The survey also found that plenty of people would stare danger in the face to get their phone back, with 25% saying they would walk onto a train track and 12% saying they would even run into traffic. So, what if YOU accidentally dropped your phone into the toilet, would you grab it? Would you actually admit to anyone that you fished it out of the toilet?
If your phone does get wet, here are some tips to help save it. Click here: SOURCE

What You Get
After we cut our way through the hermetically sealed plastic container, we end up with the thumb drive, an extension USB cable, and a driver disk. The driver disk will only be needed if you are using Windows 98. All newer versions of Windows (including ME) will automatically recognize the device as an external storage media and load the proper drivers by default.
Taking a closer look at the device shows a rather squared looking module that has a removable covering to protect the USB tip. This can be extremely handy in the event it falls out of your pocket; and yes, this would be from someone who is talking from experience here.
As far as size is concerned, a quick viewing of the ruler shows the dimensions of the drive to be 66mm x 24mm x 10mm. For those who are metrically challenged, this works out to be about 2 5/8" x 1" x 3/8". So while it isn't the smallest drive on the market, it is easily small enough to fit almost anywhere with no problems.
Taking the cover from the drive shows a pretty common looking storage device. It is slim enough that it should fit into any front/side mounted USB port of your machine with no issues. Once you have finished, just put the cap back on and you're ready to go.
But what about the security features?
Ah, when you flip the drive over, you see a small metallic plate. This is a small scanning device that allows you to secure your data by means of a fingerprint. Simply put, you can lock access to the device unless someone has the proper fingerprint to scan or a proper password. Let's take a closer look at this concept, shall we?

Would it be possible to make tomato sauce from my tiny grape tomatoes and my Romas? I've got zillions of each. But, in order to make sauce, I'd want to begin with peeled tomatoes, right? Since that isn't possible with the grape tomatoes, does anyone have any ideas for a novice like me? Thanks in advance! |

You could puree the grape tomatoes in a blender or processor. You could also cut the Romas in half & roast them, sprinkled with a bit of olive oil & mix those with the pureed grape tomatoes & proceed with making your regular tomato sauce. Roasting the Romas adds good flavor. |
- Posted by folkvictorian (My Page) on Tue, Sep 22, 09 at 16:18
Thanks for the ideas, Ginger! Could you tell me exactly how to roast the Romas? Do I prepare them and put them on a cookie sheet (baking stone?) and put them in the oven? If so, what temp and for how long? |
- Posted by ginger_st_thomas (My Page) on Tue, Sep 22, 09 at 17:57
I do it at 400° for about 15-20 minutes but I put them on parchment paper or foil. Sprinkle olive oil on them & some salt & pepper. |
- Posted by gourd_friends (My Page) on Tue, Sep 22, 09 at 18:54
There are juice strainers that will remove the skins and seeds from cooked tomatoes, making wonderful juice. I have a Victorio strainer that does a great job. I know there are others, but don't know what they are called. I also had thousands of grape tomatoes, and put most of them in juice. I actually have two Victorios, and have been known to loan one of them now and then. Jan |
You can make a wonderful pasta sauce with romas and grape or cherry tomatoes. One was is to roast as Ginger says...but I cut the grape or cherry in half and the romas in quarters... Place on a baking sheet in one layer and top with very skinny slices of onion and some grated garlic....and sweet pepper strips if you like. Sprinkle all with Kosher salt and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. I roast at 300 for well more than an hour...things shouldn't brown but become syrupy a bit caramelized. Rough chop and toss with cooked pasta and top with lots of fresh grated parmesan cheese. Or you could do a more traditional sauce....I did a huge pot last week. |

Boy oh boy does my kitchen smell GREAT! Thank you everyone for your help! A bunch of tomatoes are roasting right now and I'll start the pasta boiling soon. Jan - I Googled your strainer and realized I could use my (very) old food mill to strain the skins and seeds when I make sauce. We use it about once a year when my mom visits and we pick apples and make applesauce. Thank you ALL again for your generosity in sharing your ideas! I'll think of you at dinnertime! |

Members of the Indiana Department of Homeland Security District 1 Task Force and the American Medical Response team put their specialized training to use in joining emergency responders on the East Coast in the wake of the Hurricane Sandy disaster.
The deployed paramedics from Northwest Indiana have trained in mock disaster events to prepare for a real-life scenario where local responders would need help from outside sources.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime event for a lot of people. I'll hold it close to me forever. I gained a confidence in our team and in our state," said Tom Bettenhausen, operations manager for Superior Ambulance and the Mobile Service Unit commander for the District 1 team. The District 1 Task Force is made up of 400 firefighters, police officers, EMTs and paramedics from Lake, Porter, LaPorte, Newton and Jasper counties.
As commander, Bettenhausen worked with New Jersey's Ocean County and Brick Township emergency responders to coordinate his team's work.
"We were extremely successful in the completion of our mission — beginning to end," Bettenhausen said.
His team members were involved in responding too routine 911 calls, shuttling patients to hospitals and shelters, and helping to evacuate the Ocean City (N.J.) Hospital once the storm cleared.
"We got there about a half an hour before the worst of the storm hit (Oct. 29)," Bettenhausen said. The group had to ride out the hurricane in a bunker at the Atlantic City Airport. Once they were briefed and the storm passed, the team hit the ground running. The devastation they found was shocking.
"There were houses in the middle of street, children's toys and family belongings strewn everywhere. You knew you were looking at people's lives completely ruined," Bettenhausen said.
In one neighborhood, the water was almost 2 miles inland of where it would normally be.
"When the fireman pointed that out … I realized at that point the true magnitude of that devastation," Bettenhausen said.
The sheer magnitude of a disaster is something mock training exercises can never fully capture, according to the responders. Training makes possible the all-important coordination and communication. The Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks brought to light the need for coordinated response, participants say.
During Hurricane Katrina that coordination had improved some, and with each disaster it gets better. Responders take each event and use it as a learning tool, assessing just how, next time, things can run more effectively.
"Whenever you have a major disaster like this, like 9/11, like Katrina — of that magnitude — it is not something we do on a normal day-to-day basis. The command structure has to grow to accommodate the disaster," said Greg DeLor, chief of Crown Point Fire Rescue.
DeLor said the hands-on experience gained by local personnel responding to a major disaster is invaluable and it does not cost local taxpayers. When a team is tapped, the state pays for necessities like fuel, and the state later bills the state to which it provides the services. The federal government reimburses local units for manpower hours and other expenses incurred during the emergency.
Russell Shirley, Indiana Department of Homeland Security District 1 commander and director of the Porter County Emergency Management Agency, agrees. While Indiana may not see an actual hurricane, the potential for tornados, floods, fires and accidents or other significant disasters exists.
Task Force members who respond to an emergency elsewhere benefit from the opportunity to use their skills honed during practice in real life and bring that knowledge back home with them. In the process, it helps them improve their ability to respond the next time.
Shirley said Hurricane Sandy was the District 1 Task Force's the first opportunity to respond to an out-of-state disaster.
For Merrillville-based Prompt Ambulance, this was the company's third deployment as part of the American Medical Response network, Ronald Donahue, communications director for Prompt Ambulance Service, said. The company also responded to Hurricane Katrina and the BP oil spill.
"Everybody is really being more proactive. Every time we do it, the country, ourselves as a whole, we get a little bit better," Donahue said.
Bettenhausen said people always seem to wonder whether the time and money spent on a group like the District 1 Task Force is worth it.
"I think we just proved it is. Not only to ourselves but to our fellow countrymen. God forbid anything ever does happen. Here you go, here in Indiana we will be there to help you no matter what," he said.

Blueprint for investment
As the UK economy seeks ways to climb out of recession, a new RSA report will show how companies and institutional investors can be more accountable across the board.
The Tomorrow's Investor study is a unique piece of deliberative research into investment and accountability. It looks at the past performance and future prospects of key aspects of the economy such as fund management, pensions and savings, offering practical guidance on how the UK economy can overcome its problems. "Encouraging long-term saving, and ensuring it is invested responsibly and efficiently, is one of the most intractable problems our society currently faces," said Aziz Boghani, consultant on the project. "This paper will offer a clear blueprint for change. We would urge all concerned parties – individuals, companies, pension providers, administrators and government – to take account of its recommendations."
Pensions reform has been a major target of the present government. The Pensions Commission has made some bold recommendations, such as the introduction of a national pensions savings scheme: Personal Accounts, due to come into effect in 2012. But, the RSA report argues, in its present form the scheme will not create an effective savings mechanism and is held back by its own remit. The report goes on to show how we can overcome these constraints.
The Tomorrow's Investor project includes analysis of the investment chain, which it identifies as existing for two principal reasons: to allow cost-effective investment in companies; and to ensure that capital owners are accountable. At present, neither goal is being realised and this paper gives practical guidance on remedying the situation.
To find out more about the project and to download both the interim report and the final report (to be published in July), please visit Tomorrow's Investor
As a Fellow you can also engage directly in the Tomorrow's Investor debate by joining our new online Fellowship network. For details, please contact Aziz Boghani.

Most of us studied music in school, then moved into a career, and now are returning to, and rediscovering our love for music. Many of us picked up our instrument at a more advanced age and are pursuing a desire to do something we've always wanted to. This orchestra is designed for orchestra musicians of intermediate skill. Though we do some performing during the year, our focus is on learning, and growing as musicians. Rehearsals are on Tuesdays from 7pm to 9pm in the James Center for Performing Arts in Sequim beginning on Tuesday, October 7, 2014 and will run through June 5. School-age youngsters, adults and seniors are all encouraged to join the Sequim Community Orchestra. Musicians don't have to live in Sequim. A number of players from both Port Angeles and the Dungeness Valley have expressed interest. We'll have two performances this year. The first will be on February 20, and the second on June 5. Both performances will be at the Trinity United Methodist Church in Sequim, at 7pm. | |||||||

Indeed it is. "Kebero, Part 1" mates a Miles-ian backdrop with the mesmerizing ululations of Ethiopian crooner GiGi; "The Essence" is a sophisticated ticket to clubland in the company of Khan, bassist Charnett Mofett and turntablist Grandmixer DXT; and "Tony Williams" layers poetry by Dana Bryant with rhythms by the late drummer, who died in 1997. As for "Wisdom," it's a portion of a Daisaku Ikeda lecture on chapters from The Lotus Sutra as recited by young Elenni Davis-Knight: "Simply put, knowledge corresponds to the past. It is technology. Wisdom is the future..."
"It's a statement," Hancock exults. "I mean, nobody has a statement on their record. But it's all part of the humanistic approach. Humanism amid the machines, you know?"
In general, critics have responded positively to these juxtapositions, but Hancock feels some of them haven't fully grasped what he was trying to accomplish on Future 2 Future. He gripes about one reviewer in particular, who described the disc as another entreaty to smooth-jazz aficionados. But in the next breath, he insists he's unfazed by those scribes who impugn his motives or suggest that he would have made a deeper mark in jazz had he been disciplined enough to focus on it to the exclusion of all else. "I don't fight that battle anymore," he snaps. "That's not my problem. It's theirs."
This wasn't always the case. "There was a period of time when I thought about those things," he acknowledges, showing more than a hint of irritation. "But I decided I was wasting my time, and I continued to do what I wanted to do. I have my own drummer to answer to."

Providing tools and support to families, citizens, and activists to counter our consumerist culture and to create new social norms about how to have a high quality of life and a reduced ecological footprint.
Is Barbie really the role model we want influencing young Girl Scouts?
The Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood (CCFC) and the Center for a New American Dream (New Dream) are urging Girl Scouts of USA (GSUSA) to end a partnership with Mattel that promotes Barbie to girls.
The partnership includes a co-branded activity book, website, and a Barbie participation patch for Girl Scout Daisies and Brownies (girls in kindergarten through 3rd grade). In their petition, CCFC and New Dream called on GSUSA to stay true to their mission and stop promoting the Barbie brand.
"This is product placement at its worst," said New Dream's executive director Wendy Philleo. "We have always been great admirers of the Girl Scouts and are very disappointed in the recent partnership with Mattel. Our children are already being bombarded by marketers' pitches at stores, at home, online, on TV, and in school. We urge the Girl Scouts to discontinue this partnership, and maintain their organization as one of the few commercial-free experiences in a girl's life."
Over the years, the Barbie brand has frequently come under fire for promoting harmful stereotypes to young girls. Currently, Mattel is facing heavy criticism for Barbie's appearance in the notorious Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. GSUSA's endorsement is particularly valuable as Mattel pushes back against its critics with a campaign declaring that it's "#unapologetic" about Barbie and her influence on girls.
"Holding Barbie, the quintessential fashion doll, up as a role model for Girl Scouts simultaneously sexualizes young girls, idealizes an impossible body type, and undermines the Girl Scouts' vital mission to build 'girls of courage, confidence, and character,'" said CCFC's director Dr. Susan Linn. "It is particularly troubling that the youngest scouts are encouraged to wear a Barbie patch on their uniforms, transforming them into walking advertisements. While Mattel and the Barbie brand benefit enormously from the Girl Scouts' endorsement, the partnership harms girls."
In announcing the partnership with Mattel, GSUSA's CEO Anna Marie Chavez called Barbie "an American Icon" whose appeal would encourage girls to "explore exciting new career possibilities." The campaign tells girls that they can "be anything," but an inescapable component of that message is that girls should aspire to be like Barbie. Girls visiting the GSUSA's I Can Be... website view pictures of Barbie dolls and are asked to identify their careers based solely on their attire: from a veterinarian in a frilly mini-skirt, to a pink-suited U.S. president, to a racecar driver in stilettos. Many of the outfits pictured are for sale in Barbie's I Can Be... line.
The partnership is particularly troubling to long-time supporters of GSUSA's mission, including New Dream's Edna Rienzi, a troop leader and mother of three Girl Scouts. "I am a huge fan of the Girl Scouts organization, and I take my responsibility as a troop leader very seriously. Because of this high regard, I am particularly disappointed in the partnership between the Girl Scouts and Mattel. Mattel may be #unapologetic about Barbie's influence on young girls, but I expect more from the Girl Scouts."

More reviews by lawschoolnerd1
This is my favourite eye product. It doesn't irritate my eyes or give me milia, but it is still thick enough moisturize all day. I can even put concealer over top of it during the day without any problems. I don't have a great deal of wrinkles and my main concern is hydration, and this offers great hydration. It has also helped reduce puffiness. I also like that it is in a tube, which preserves the integrity of the product better than a jar. You only need a small amount of this product, so the tube lasts a long time. I don't know why this eye cream isn't more popular, because it is a great product!

UPDATE: WOULD NOT CONSIDER DUE TO ANIMAL TESTING FOR CHINESE MARKET 17/02/2012 Just got this product and love it. I am not expecting any miracles, but it absorbes fast so I can apply make up right after and the eye area feels very smoothe. Will alternate with Clinique All About Eyes. It is expensive but you need very little. Plus the tube keeps the product germ free.
Edit: After using this for several months, I can now say that this just a bland nothing to write home about moisturizer. The good thing is that it dosen't cause milia. Way overpriced. Almost $20 more than Clinique's AAE gel wich is probably a very similar formula. Will not buy again like I originaly thought.

More reviews by fourtyandfabulous
This eye treatment is great for sensitive eyes. I have tried many eye creams (treatments) in the past including N.V. Perricone Vit. C Ester, Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Synchronized Complex, Dermaglow Nuvectin Advanced Eye Therapy, Kinerase Intensive Eye Cream, Clinique All About Eyes Rich, Dremu oil, Neostrata, there are probably more. Most eye creams irritate my eyes by either drying them out or making them red. I have found that Verite is really gentle. I think that it is important to use fragrance free products whether you have sensitive skin or not, especially around the eye area. So far, I only apply the eye cream at night, as I've heard many makeup artists say that you shouldn't apply eye creams during the day, as you'll develop racoon eyes from the mascara, as most eye creams are rich in emollients. Maybe if your eye cream contains a proven SPF, or if your foundation contains SPF, it would be okay. Although most eye treatment products do not contain sunscreen, because you don't need a product with sunscreen in the evening. I believe that there are no miracle eye treatment products that address all issues such as dark circles, wrinkles, puffiness, etc. Getting proper rest, drinking lots of water, eating a good diet, elevating your head while sleeping, and limiting salt intake are probably your best defences. Not to mention, that applying a proven sunscreen (everyday) is our best wrinkle fighter. As for crow's feet, Botox is most likely the best solution for that. Finding an eye cream that works for you, is simply trial and error. What I really like about Verite, is that it moisturizes, without being greasy. When I apply the Verite, it firms the under eye area, without tightening or drying it out. My eye area looks smooth and refreshed. Not to mention the tube is hygienic, I don't like dipping my fingers or applicator wands into those little pots. I recently purchased the product from The Bay for $50, which isn't cheap, but if it doesn't irritate my eyes, I believe it justifies the cost.

I am an avid consumer. After extensive research, I learned that Estee Lauder owns the very expensive and over priced Lamer products. Paula Begone also examined the ingrediants in both of these lines and many others. She rated this as an excellent eye cream for a reasonable price. I agree!! I have tried multiple products and this is exceptional.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Does not sting under my eyes or make my under eye area red. I have used other eye creams before and had to have steroid shots due to allergic reactions. Does not ball up under makeup and helps my concealer from getting into fine lines. Not holding out for a miracle but so far, so good!
Was lemming this eye creme for a while but something was stopping me from buying it. Perhaps lack of reviews (there are surprisingly not so many on makeupalley).
Have been using it for the past 3 weeks and could not be happier. It's all I've been looking for in an eye creme: moisturizing yet not overly greasy, no perfume, tube packaging, inexpensive (considering that it's HE). Wish there would also be a version with SPF but well... It'll very likely become my HG. I'll update after using it for a couple of months.
Update: okay, here it the update I've promissed. I am still pleased with it and it does moisturize well, however I can not use in in the morning because if I don't apply enough I get flaky skin and if I apply just about enough I have to really blend out my foundation&concealer (they concentrate in the areas where the creme has been applied) as the creme needs some time to get absorbed and I don't have that much time in the morning. But Í still find it a perfect choice for my evening routine.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I had high hopes when I first tried this eye cream. However, after having used Verite Special Eye Care for some time I've come to the realization that it's just an ordinary eye cream. It does not provide enough moisturize for my, in the winter time, very dry skin. I have a dry patch just under the brow and this cream does not provide enough moisture to "heal" the dry patch. However, if you have normal skin this eye cream would probably work for you.
I like the texture and the fact that it is pretty much unscented. But I wouldn't repurchase this cream since it is not moisturizing enough for me. My search for the perfect eye cream has not come to an end, unfortunately. continued >>
UPDATE (April 2010): Sadly, I've come to the realization that this eye cream has been contributing to some lower eyelid dermatitis. I believe the culprit is pentylene glycol which just this year appeared on my radar as one of my potential triggers. It does have the potential for contact dermatitis. Obviously, I would no longer repurchase. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Been using this eyecream for about two weeks and I give it an A+++. Excellent, hydrating eyecream that's emollient but doesn't contribute to milia (I'm dry but quite milia prone.). Estee Lauder was never on my radar screen since I assumed that all EL skincare was fragranced. Thanks to kylesmom and Trishamarie for their reviews. I knew that if it worked for them, it could work for me. ♥

This is a wonderful eye cream for sensitive eyes like mine. I've used it off and on for years but have recently gone back due to eye irritations. It's in a squeeze tube which is a huge plus, I can't stand dipping into pots or tubs. It's a smooth non-greasy cream that glides on and soothes.

I've had several plants just dry up and die rather suddently. One of them was a buddleii that I planted a few months ago. The others were phloxes and obedient plant. They receive full sun, are mulched, and get at least an inch of water weekly. But when I pulled back some of the mulch, I saw white dots/blobs and some webbing and have no idea what's going on. Does anyone? |

If the white stuff is fungus it is doubtful that it is what is killing the plants. Are the roots ok? When my plants suddenly wither and die it is either because voles have bitten off the base of the plant or eaten most of the roots - or - the soil didn't drain well enough and the water logged conditions caused the roots to rot. |
- Posted by dottie_in_charlotte z7-8 NC (My Page) on Fri, Sep 4, 09 at 15:12
I'd say they drowned. That inch of water a week is a good rule for lawns which have far more plants per square foot than gardens do..especially mulched gardens. Some lawngrasses need more,some less..some on hillsides or near lots of trees might need twice that amount. Flower borders that lie downhill from a lawn could either be getting too much(if the rain is strong) or too little if the rains are gentle sprinkles. So many variables but the clue is that thread fungus. It's not a cause of death but an indicator that your plants were weak and dying. The fungus is natures garbage disposal. Draw off that mulch and get some sunlight and air to the soil. Test it for drainage before deciding what to plant next year in that spot. |

This blog goes out to our new users. A lot of you are here today for the first time and in addition to all the rewards we offer you on Swagbucks.com, you'll be happy to know that we work with and host many partner sites for a lot of major acts and pro sports teams as you can see from all the banners on the left side of this blog.
In fact, there's a Swag Code somewhere in our Flickr page. We work with a band who has a number in their name (we work a few 'number-in-name' bands), but this one in particular has a banner on our blog that's orange and black. If you think you've found who it is, search the band name on Flickr (you must search the band name from OUR FLICKR PAGE, doing it for all of Flickr will result in way too many images to go through) and prize photos from Swaggernauts who have redeemed prizes from that band will appear. A Swag Code will appear in the caption of one of those photos.
You must find the right band and then get the right picture to see the code. This code is worth 5 Swag Bucks and will expire at 8PM PST.

How to Make a Cake with Zebra Stripes on the Inside! & MyCakeSchool Blog - StumbleUpon. Hi everyone!
Happy Friday! Okay, it is just about 15 minutes until Saturday here, but I'm still going to call this a Friday blog -:0) — Let's celebrate by making a zebra cake! In my last video tutorial, I demonstrated how to decorate a cake with zebra stripes–a very fun look for your safari, fashion or just plain funky themed cakes! Well, today I'll show you how to continue the theme to the inside of the cake.
By the way, I did not invent the zebra cake. Make Your Own Glitter Flats. In case you haven't noticed in the past almost 3 years (!!) WANM has been in existence, I am not a crafty person. Nope, I leave the crafts to Chels and I stick to the kitchen (where disasters can easily be shoved down the garbage disposal!). It's not that I don't want to get into crafts; I've just never been good at them. I like following recipes.
Bottle (w)rap. I drink a lot of wine.
And end up with a lot of empty wine bottles that are oh so pretty, it breaks my heart to have to junk them with the raddi- walla. I've been trying to find all sorts of utility excuses to hang on to them - wate bottles, plant holders and what have you. And now I have the perfect non-utility excuse to collect some more! Used: Coloured raffia from Le Papier Empty clearglass wine bottles (Sula Zinfandel -which is incidentally my personal favourite) Heavy duty glue (I have this stick of industrial glue that solidifies when it cools but I guess Fevicol would do as well) Starting at the bottom (cos the top's a bit tricky) starting winding the raffia tightly around the bottle, pausing to add a bit of adhesive every now and then. The BEST Play-Dough Recipe. Have you ever made play dough and it just fell apart??
Well… not this time. This recipe will make play dough that is seriously the closest thing to store-bought you'll ever make. No falling apart or drying out (as long as stored in a sealed container). Little Wishes - Beyond Beyond. Well, we are dusting off our obligatory black armband over in Beyond Beyond land for one of our most favourite shops ever – Early Bright (mega sad face) they have been the purveyors of some delicious and inspirational bling that is more art than jewellery. And we just want to share one of the most beautiful pieces every a wish in a jar. We used to shake dandelion bushes when we were little in the vain belief that we would get a Barbie dream house, Michael Jackson tickets, the ability to breakdance overnight (although we never progressed beyond being able to do backspins), millionaire moolah, or our favourite wish was that we had been dropped off at the wrong house (sorry parental units) and we were really the offspring of some family with the financial clout of Daddy Warbucks and the Rothschild's combined.
How To Make A Stylish Photo Frame For Several Photos. Here is a simple yet stylish photo frame that can accomodate quite many photos at once. The idea is very simple. Fasten twines on the empty frame and hang photos using clothes pins on them. You can use a frame you bought or a frame you made by yourself. To make it you just need to find some wood strips, sand them, paint or stain them and fasten together with the staples and nails. Yes, everything is as simple as it sounds.

Hey everyone,
Our local dessert god Darren Purchese has small deserts that are covered in a perfectly smooth chocolate frosting. It's incredibly shiny (imagine a resin coating over chocolate!). You can see it on their blog.
Does anyone have any idea what this would be or have any idea how to achieve a similar effect?
The requirements:
1. Dark Chocolate (color at least)
2. Perfectly smooth
3. Incredibly shiny

Celebrating it's 10th anniversary this year, London Design Festival is finally in full swing. What better place for us to join in the festivities than the beautiful V&A museum, home of the festival for the fourth year running.
We were fortunate to be amongst the first to behold London-based designer and film-maker Keiichi Matsuda's enormous digital installation, "Prism," hidden away in the V&A's cupola roof space, a part of the museum never before made open to the public.
Presenting "an alternative view of London," Keiichi's formidable installation—constructed from a 2 tonne steel frame, bespoke Japanese paper, an aluminum structure and 5 projection units—visualizes vast swathes of publicly available data, from humidity and pollution levels, to energy usage in No. 10, Downing Street, and even the number of Boris bikes currently in use.
You might be wondering how this enormous piece made it up to the roof rafters of an enourmous Victorian edifices. As Keiichi informed us, and his stunning making-of video on Wallpaper* illustrates, all the materials and projectors were carefully hoisted through the tiny gaps in floors of the building.
As if the sculpture wasn't enough, the 'Prism' tour is worth a visit just for a glimpse of the terrace space that Keiichi has been using as a temporary studio space whilst constructing his work.
Keiichi showing off his temporary rooftop studio to his mum and sister.
The V&A have kindly added extra dates to give more festival goers a chance to share this experience. You can call them on +44 (0)20 7942 2211.

What ever happened to Volunteer fire department? This is BS He should not be billed period!!!
Victim of Brunswick house fire gets bill for water
Updated 11 p.m.
BRUNSWICK Michael Pietro doesn't mind so much that he got billed for the water firefighters used to battle the blaze that destroyed his Rensselaer County home.
What really irks him is the amount: $1,400.
"First of all, I'm not shocked at getting a bill for the water," Pietro said Friday, still shaken from the fire that leveled his house and destroyed all his belongings. "What I'm shocked at is the markup. I know it does not cost the village of Poestenkill $20 per 1,000 gallons."
Volunteer firefighters battling Monday's blaze had to use water hauled in by tanker trucks to combat the flames, and the nearest hydrant was located down the road, in the neighboring town of Poestenkill.
Two days after the fire, town officials in Poestenkill sent Pietro a water bill for $1,400. Town Supervisor Dom Jacangelo has said his town has to pass along the expense because Poestenkill buys its water from Brunswick and the nearby city of Troy.
Under town law, use of a hydrant costs $20 per 1,000 gallons used. The law also says it costs $40 to use a hydrant for "emergency response" but it's not clear if that's a flat fee or means $40 per 1,000 gallons used. Jacangelo said firefighters used 73,000 gallons of water knocking down the blaze at the house Pietro shared with his wife in the town of about 4,500 people.
Jacangelo and other town officials didn't return messages seeking comment Friday.
"In all honesty and fairness, at the bottom of the bill, it said if there were any problems, they said I could contact the town and they can be flexible," Pietro said.
Pietro, who moved to Brunswick just three years ago, told The Associated Press he had nothing but respect and gratitude for the way fire crews attacked the blaze and the way the community has rallied around him.
Ed186 is right: no way should this man have to foot this bill.
ed186- The fire department isn't getting paid, the water department is.
That said, if the man lives in Brunswick, and Poestenkill buys some of its water from Brunswick, can't the town of Brunswick just issue the town of Poestenkill a credit on its next bill? Or, does that make too much sense for government to accomplish? Other information that would be nice to know:
1) Did Poestenkill try to work this out with Brunswick first, or just send a bill?
2) Did Poestenkill actually meter the water used, or are they just estimating?
3) Did all of the water get poured on the fire, or was some left in the trucks?
All of which leads to the point that this whole thing is absurd.

A New Deal for Students
Date Published:
Thu, 2013-03-14
Published in:
Education A joint collaboration between students in the Roosevelt Institute | Campus Network and the United States Students Association
Young people across the country increasingly face insurmountable obstacles to their future economic success. The youth unemployment rate is 12.5%, significantly higher than that of other groups of Americans and almost double the national average. On top of bleak job prospects, young Americans who invest in higher education in pursuit of a better future are witnessing diminishing returns and growing long-term burdens in the form of student debt. To date, student debt in the United States towers over $1 trillion dollars, surpassing the cumulative amount of credit card debt.
Students from the Roosevelt Institute | Campus Network (RICN) and the United States Students Association (USSA), are taking up the urgent challenge that our political leaders are failing to address. Through individual research and initiative, we have drafted a set of concrete and innovative recommendations to ameliorate the growing problem of student debt and provide relief to the heavy economic burden that limits the potential of America's future entrepreneurs, nurses, lawyers, small business owners, and workers.
In this report, students outline our arguments for a better system of paying for higher education. Policy recommendations range from tax incentives for students committed to staying in their home states to raising the federal minimum range to supporting new graduates to teach in rural areas.
What we want is critical debate and, above all else, action by our lawmakers on this critical financial issue affecting millions of young Americans.

Dear Vice Presidents and Deans:
August 24, 2010
As you all know, when I was appointed president I started to look at the University's organizational structure, to rethink reporting lines and to review the portfolios of the leadership team.
On Monday, I am pleased to report that Craig and I met with his managers and coaches to announce that he will begin to report to me.
In the eyes of the NCAA, University presidents are responsible for compliance. In fact, in most Division I universities, the standard reporting line for the athletic director is to the president.
In making this decision, I consulted with other Division I presidents and athletic directors, in addition to the Rector and the Board of Visitors, Leonard, and the chair of the Virginia Athletics Foundation. I found widespread support for this change -- and concluded that such a reporting line enhances presidential control and sends a clear message about the University's commitment to athletics.
Craig is an outstanding athletic director who is known here and across the country for his deep commitment to the overall well being of our student-athletes, both on the field and in the classroom, and for his always thoughtful, collegial approach to complex issues. Craig embodies the University's values and strives for excellence in all that he does.
He has earned the respect of his colleagues at peer institutions, within the ACC and the NCAA, and among our coaches and student-athletes.
Craig also earned a new-found respect from his University colleagues on Saturday afternoon during the family welcome event. His wry explanation of the coming football season brought down the house.
Since becoming the University's AD in 2001, Craig has continued to build our athletic programs while keeping his eye on academic excellence and student achievement. During the 2009-10 academic year, U.Va.'s intercollegiate athletics program ranked third in the Learfield Sports Directors' Cup standings, which are based on the combined performance of men's and women's sports. Virginia is one of just 15 schools to finish in the Top 30 in the Directors' Cup standings in all 17 years of the program's existence. Last year's third place finish is the best ever.
That's a credit to Craig's steady leadership.
I am looking forward to working with Craig -- and to seeing what the new year will bring.

Dr. Thomas S. Williamson
From MN150
Other Nominations
As one of the first medical doctors to arrive in Minnesota in 1835, T.S. Williamson brought the earliest medical care to the Dakota and to many soldiers, trappers and their families over the years. He, along with John Renville, Stephen Riggs and Gideon and Samuel Pond, created the first written alphabet and grammar of the Dakota language. In the weeks and months following the 1862 Conflict, he wrote letters to President Lincoln and others seeking pardon for the Dakota whom he believed were innocent of any wrongdoing. After the December execution of those condemned to death, he went to Washington, D.C. and pored over the trial transcripts seeking the details that made it possible for over 300 Dakota men to be pardoned three years later, making it possible for them to leave prison and return to their families. T.S. Williamson spent his life translating the Bible into Dakota and devoting every effort to making sure the Dakota people were brought to safety when most of Minnesota's settlers wanted them completely destroyed. If it had not been for Thomas Williamson, his wife Margaret, his sister Jane, John Williams Thomas and Margaret's son, the Dakota may have all been massacred. In terms of their faith, it was the Williamsons who numbered among the first missionaries to encourage and implement the ordination of Native clergy to lead Native churches, making Minnesota the earliest and only place where Native American churches flourished in the 19th and 20th centuries.
