(ABC 6 News) -- Over the weekend, Academy Award-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead in his New York City apartment.
Investigators say they found 5 empty bags and 65 full bags of heroin in the apartment. And while an exact cause of death hasn't been determined, it's believed Hoffman died of a heroin overdose.
The actor's death shocked fans across the world, putting the dangers of heroin back in the spotlight.
But in Minnesota the danger may be even greater.
"I think heroin was probably the biggest downfall of my life," said William, a recovering heroin addict. "It wrecked me completely. I was an empty shell, I didn't have anything left."
William, whose last name we've omitted for privacy reasons, is receiving treatment at the new Mn Adult and Teen Challenge center in Rochester.
He said it took less than a year for the drug to ruin his life.
"I didn't have hope. I didn't have love. I didn't have anything in my life," William said.
And just like Philip Seymour Hoffman and countless others before him, William had his own experience with an overdose. William said he collapsed after shooting seven bags in a hotel room with two other users.
"I finally totally lost consciousness coming into the hotel room," William said. "The guy dropped me on the bed and said, 'I hope he lives.' And I was out. I didn't know if I was going to live or die."
Thankfully William survived and sought treatment that very day.
Law enforcement officials say heroin use in Minnesota has taken off in the last five years, and treatment specialists say that's because of how cheap and potent the drug can be here.
"Heroin right now is the purest form that's readily available," said Anthony Villerreal, a long-term program director with Mn Adult and Teen Challenge. "So yes, it's skyrocketed here in the Midwest, and in Minnesota you're seeing it twice as cheap as anywhere else in the United States."
Villerreal used to be a dealer himself, and said he knows just how addictive it can be.
"When I first started selling it, I would give it away," Villerreal said. "Because I knew people would just immediately get hooked on it."
William also used to sell heroin, but now says he wouldn't wish the addiction on his worst enemy.
"It's a road that nobody should go down," William said. "It's lonely, it's dark. it's cold. And the only thing it's going to do to you, it's going to kill you."
Mn Adult and Teen Challenge actually came to Rochester because problems with substance abuse were so prevalent in Southeastern Minnesota.
The center opened at the start of the year, and currently William is one of ten men living there, all of whom staff say are writing their own success stories.

Updated: September 24, 2012 6:25AM
John "Duke" O'Malley had a passion for what he called "the great outdoors." He shared it with his family and the world, whether it was through the columns he wrote for the Daily Southtown for about 30 years, the fishing derbies that introduced thousands of Southland kids to the sport or a simple Sunday road trip.
"He'd take us for a three-hour drive just to have lunch somewhere and watch the leaves change and then we'd come back home," said Maureen McGrail, of Plainfield, one of O'Malley's six children. "He gave us what was important in life: morals, values and traditions."
Mr. O'Malley, 76, who was a Chicago firefighter from 1958-98, died Friday of complications from a stroke he suffered in January, said Kathy Kobiernicki, of Oak Lawn, another of his daughters.
Mr. O'Malley, of Chicago's Clearing/Garfield Ridge community, was born in 1935 and was a lifelong South Sider. He graduated from St. Phillip High School and was a U.S. Army veteran, serving in the Korean War.
Mr. O'Malley married his wife, Joan, in 1958. They had five daughters — Maureen (McGrail), Kathy (Kobiernicki), Erin (Johnson), Colleen (Granato) and Kerrie (McAvoy) — and a son, Patrick. They had 16 grandchildren and a great grandson.
Joan died in September. This coming Tuesday would have been their 53rd anniversary.
"We knew he wasn't going to spend it without her," McGrail said. "We always knew how much he loved her."
"He's where he wants to be, with my mom," Kobiernicki said.
McGrail said she and all of her siblings went through 12 years of Catholic schooling.
"He worked so hard so that our mom could be home with us and put us through Catholic schools," she said.
Mr. O'Malley was perhaps best known for the annual free kids fishing derby he oversaw for more than 20 years until 2008. When he attended his final derby, he estimated more than 20,000 kids had participated over the years.
"He lived for getting people to appreciate the outdoors and to get them to spend some time with family," Kobiernicki said.
Don Dziedzina, a fellow outdoors columnist, recalled the derby and how Mr. O'Malley scrambled together volunteers and fundraising events each year to keep it going.
"Duke had outdoor writers come in and do seminars. He'd have raffles and raise money so he could support the annual fishing event for kids," Dziedzina said. "Duke was a great guy. He loved the outdoors."
Mr. O'Malley's twice-weekly columns in the Daily Southtown reflected his interests in fishing and hunting, his advocacy for getting young people involved in outdoor recreation as well as protection of wildlife and aquatic habitat, according to the Illinois Conservation Foundation, which inducted him into its Illinois Outdoor Hall of Fame in 2008. Last year, the South Side Muskie Hawks honored him as their Man of the Year for a lifetime of dedication to the outdoors.
Visitation will be from 3 to 9 p.m. Tuesday at Palos-Gaidas Funeral Home, 11028 Southwest Highway, Palos Hills. A funeral Mass will be said at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday at St. Symphorosa, 6135 S. Austin Ave., in Chicago, with burial to follow at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, 6001 W. 111th St., Alsip.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Maphosa, Lancelot email@example.com URN etd-02132006-102938 Document Title Molecular and Biochemical Characterisation of Armillaria Degree MSc (Genetics) Department Genetics Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Dr E Mwenje Committee Member Dr M P A Coetzee Committee Member Prof M J Wingfield Committee Member Prof B D Wingfield Supervisor Keywords
- Armillaria
Date 2005-09-07 Availability unrestricted Abstract Armillaria spp. are important root pathogens that cause considerable plant mortality throughout the world. The nomeclatural and taxonomic placement of the genus has been intensely debated for a long time. Early identification relied exclusively on mating tests and morphological similarities. The introduction of DNA and protein based methods has greatly increased the understanding of the phylogeny of Armillaria species.The literature surrounding Armillaria, Armillaria root disease, characters that are distinct to Armillaria, means of disease spread and techniques that have been used to identify Armillaria spp. are considered in this thesis. The controversy surrounding the proper genus name and which species should be included in the genus is also discussed.
In this study a collection of isolates obtained from Zimbabwean plantations are characterized. IGS-1 sequence data and AFLP data grouped these isolates into four groups while RFLP data separated them into five groups. One group has been tentatively identified as A. fuscipes whilst the remaining ones have not been described due to scarcity of basidiocarps in the field.
A broad selection of Armillaria spp. representing most of the known species were characterized using EF 1-a DNA sequences and pectic enzymes. Isolates from the Southern Hemisphere were clearly separate from those originating in the Northern Hemisphere. Within these two large clades, isolates formed subclades indicating their relatedness. Both techniques confirm relationships between species reported previously using other techniques. This is however the first study that presents the molecular phylogeny of Armillaria based on a single copy protein coding gene.
The identification techniques used in this study were valuable for species characterisation. Absence of fruiting bodies however, made morphological classification impossible. The results of this thesis should be useful in the process of developing future disease management strategies for Armillaria root rot in Zimbabwe.

If you've ever had to replace a windshield on your car, you might have seen some of the complicated procedures the auto glass installer has to perform. What you might not know is how critically important those windshield replacement procedures are to your safety and the safety of your passengers.A new windshield is held in place by a very strong adhesive but the adhesive is virtually useless unless all of the preparation is done right prior to the windshield installation.That's why it's so important to hire a company whose windshield replacement technicians have been thoroughly trained. The Auto Glass Shop is one of those companies.
Here's a way to save some money and to maintain the seal around your windshield at the same time. It's called windshield repair and it doesn't require removal of your windshield. Windshield repair is a process where your damaged glass is repaired by injecting a powerful resin that bonds the broken auto glass together. While your windshield chip won't disappear completely, the appearance will be much better in almost every case.As in windshield replacement, windshield repair requires training to master the art. It's not easy to do a professional grade windshield chip repair.
The Auto Glass Shop is a national auto glass company with very competitive prices. If you want to install your own auto glass, then call The Auto Glass Shop and get your auto glass parts today. Whether you need a windshield, back glass, quarter glass, vent glass or door glass we have it. We offer same day pickup at over 250+ Auto Glass warehouse locations in the US.

It's the weekend, which means I have time to cook! The first dish on my list for this weekend was Maangchi's soondubu jjigae. This was my first attempt at the soup, but I'm happy with it. I made it a bit spicy, but that doesn't bother me! My mom, who can't handle spicy food very well, loved the smell coming from the soup and wanted to try it. She was a champ and really liked it despite the heat! However, I could tell the spice was getting to her so I got two melona bars from my secret stash (I seriously treat that stuff like gold), and we both enjoyed one for desert. It was a wonderful way to end dinner :) Can't wait to try out more recipes!

Restaurants in Warsaw
Warsaw has many fine eateries, though it's generally advisable to avoid the tourist traps of the Old Town. Head instead to the centre, particularly around Nowy Świat. Sushi and fusion are all the fashion, though local dishes are equally good. Game features heavily on local menus, as do dumplings and sausage, as served at central Chlopskie Jadlo. Most restaurants open at midday and stay open till the last customer leaves; 10% is considered standard for tipping.
Romantic dining
Located in the New Orangery in Lazienki Park, Belvedere is a serious
contender for Warsaw's most romantic restaurant. Tropical foliage, subtle
lighting and smart, regal-style chairs set the scene for a menu featuring
Russian blinis, black caviar, wild game and other delicacies. Expensive, but
you certainly can't beat it for atmosphere.

AUSTIN -- For the first time in quite a while, sales tax allocations for both the Seminole and Seagraves community had failed to exceed amounts received by the respective municipalities when compared in a month-to-month study.
But despite the slight decreases, reported at 0.94-percent and 4.54.percent respectively for the Seminole and Seagraves communities, both entities remain well ahead of year-to-date sales tax allocation payments, according to the latest report from the Texas Comptroller's Office on Wednesday.
Texas Comptroller Susan Combs said Wednesday that state sales tax revenue in February was $2.2 billion, up 5.8 percent compared to February 2013.
"Sales tax revenue continues its growth streak and has now increased for 47 consecutive months," Combs said. "Growth in tax collections was seen across all major economic sectors including oil and gas, wholesale trade and the services sector."
Combs will send cities, counties, transit systems and special purpose taxing districts their March local sales tax allocations totaling $553 million, up 4.1 percent compared to March 2013.
The sales tax figures represent January sales reported by monthly tax filers.
Locally, the City of Seminole received an allocation payment of $141,936.97 for the month of March 2014, for sales transactions occurring during the month of January 2014, which was down just $1,349.70 from the March 2013 allocation payment of $143,286.67 received by the municipality last year.
Year-to-date, the City of Seminole has received $510,152.25 in allocation payments for the 2014 calendar year, which is up 15.75-percent from March 2013's year-to-date total of $40,721.54 received by the entity through the first three months of last calendar year.
In Seagraves, an allocation payment of $21,324.93 was received by the municipality from the Comptroller's office for March 2014, which was down just $1,014.35 from March 2013's allocation payment of $22,339.28.
Year-to-date, the City of Seagraves has received $92,945.42 in allocation payments from the Comptroller's Office, which is up 43.15-percent from March 2013's allocation payment total of $64,928.11 for the first three months of that calendar year.
For details of March sales tax allocations to individual cities, counties, transit systems and special purpose districts, locate the Monthly Sales Tax Allocation Comparison Summary Reports on the Comptroller's Web site at www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/allocsum/compsum.html.

text: Jake Yoder, a precocious boy caught between Amish culture and the modern world, sits in his sixth-grade classroom writing stories at the behest of a stern but charismatic teacher. Jake's stories feature children who are crushed, imprisoned, and distorted, yet somehow flailing around with a kind of bedazzled awe, trying to find a way out. His characters wander through Amish farms, one-room schoolhouses, South American plains, mental institutions, exotic cities, and prisons; his often haunting and beautiful sentences seem constructed to the beat of an obsessive internal rhythm. The strange logic and disturbing shifts in Jake's tales reveal a young boy processing intense emotional experiences in the wake of his mother's suicide and his own proximity to the schoolroom shootings at Nickel Mines, Pennsylvania, in 2006. Jake imagines fantastic journeys, magical transformations, and rock stardom as alternatives, it seems, to his own grim reality and the limitations of his life among the Amish. Novelist Stephen Beachy frames Jake's work with commentary from both himself and editor Judith Owsley Brown, in which they offer their very different views on Amish culture, literary context, the use of psychoactive medications for children, Stephen's own mental health, and the reality of Jake Yoder's unverified existence. advance raves for boneyard ""Stephen Beachy is a complete visionary, a sorcerer, a secret weapon. boneyard does for the Amish diaspora what Junot Diaz did for Dominicans with The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao."Scott Heim "boneyard is a horrifically alluring monster under the bed. It will draw you in on a bone-deep level; overawe you. Existentially profound and emotionally dangerous, this is a text that will make you surrender to the extremes of the unnameable pleasure at some bottommost outpost of experience from where the human drama can be viewed in an array of its most criminal loveliness and most personal violence.Lonely Christopher "boneyard is a restless dream of a book, one that lifts away from the dreaming writer only to turn and look back at him, regard him, and make his dream its subject . . . Skeptical of the dreamer, the book carps like a neglected lover, casting doubt on the author's honesty and motives. This house of mirrors is also a house of cards, which the author brings gleefully crashing down upon himself with baroquely entwined story-lines reminiscent of the best work of Bo Huston or James Purdy."Matthew Stadler |

Eisler: 3 Pieces for Orchestra
from the music to the film "The 400 Million" - compiled by Manfred Grabs
In April 1938 Eisler wrote an extensive and exclusively dodecaphonic soundtrack for Ivens' documentary on China, "The 400 Million", and account of events in China during the 1930s. Two years later this score formed the basis of Eisler's "Five Orchestral Pieces", all of which are classic examples of the composers's handling of the twelve-note row, in which individual details had to be "correct" in terms of the twelve-note system, while at the same time matching the images on screen and yet never sounding merely mechanical. In 1958 he remarked on this in conversation: "For the last two days I've been trying out a piece that I wrote some twenty-one years ago and that now genuinely aspires to a high technical level. […] And now I can see how I achieved this. It's only when this verve or power or even brutality that is found in pieces on the same technical level is present in the piece on which I'm now working that I'm really satisfied with it. If I'd achieved this by other means, I'd say it was very effective. But there's more to it than that. […] I really do believe that neither this nor any other of my works strives only for existing effects. And if you manage to bring this off, you've really worked hard as a composer, I think."
In 1973, eleven years after Eisler's death, Manfred Grabs drew on the surviving score of "The 400 Million" to produce the posthumous "Three pieces for orchestra".

Samsung's Tim Baxter on Marketing and the Consumer Electronics Industry
Tim Baxter, president of Samsung Electronics America, spoke to Penn State students on Friday, April 5, as part of the Smeal College of Business Executive Insights lecture series.
Baxter joined Samsung in 2006 as executive vice president of sales and marketing for the consumer business division before being promoted to president in 2009. Prior to his tenure at Samsung, he worked at Sony Corporation of America, where his 10 years there culminated in the position of senior vice president of strategic marketing.
With a strong background in marketing, Baxter talked about how his experience informs his day-to-day operations as president.
Baxter said he and other high-level executives are very involved in the elements of marketing Samsung's products, including product positioning and determining price-points.
"Executives [at Samsung] are very in tune with what is happening in the marketplace," he said.
For students interested in working in the consumer electronics industry, Baxter had some advice: "You have to market yourself. When you go into a position, [think about] how you can establish yourself, and how you can use that to earn your next opportunity."
As president of Samsung Electronics America, Baxter is responsible for the continued growth and success of both consumer and enterprise offerings, as well as customer service, financial operations, and human resources. Product categories he oversees include TV, home audio, digital imaging, home appliances, tablets, PCs, monitors, printers, signage solutions, and memory and storage.
Executive Insights is designed to complement the Smeal educational experience by bringing high-profile business leaders to the college to connect with students, faculty, staff, and administrators. Past guests include more than 25 leaders from organizations such as Boeing, Dell, Deloitte, Johnson & Johnson, Kohl's, KPMG, Procter & Gamble, Verizon, and Tumi Holdings, Inc.

When I admired 'Soft Caress' mahonia at Wells-Medina last week, the nursery guy told me many of these cool new shrubs have gone home with employees. I'm not surprised...I stared at it for awhile before I even grasped that it was a mahonia, for 'Soft Caress' has none of that usual heavy, dark-green mahonia look. Its slender leaves lend an airy appearance, and it could easily be mistaken for a nandina or a tidy little form of bamboo.
Yet despite its unusual looks, 'Soft Caress' has the characteristic growth pattern of mahonia, takes shade, and is topped with a burst of fragrant yellow flowers in winter. It's evergreen like its relatives, and grows to about four feet high - although because it's such a new hybrid we really don't know how large it'll grow here in the Northwest. Nor can we be sure about its tenderness..even though the tag reads "hardy to 10 degrees F.", nursery staff recommended a sheltered spot in the garden. I'd love to grow it in a container, and am considering the risk....look at those red stems....isn't it a beauty?

Build it out of insulation foam :) |
And add a heater that has a thermistat...I do it on my back porch and it's working well. Good luck. |
- Posted by asparagusfinger zone 9 (My Page) on Sat, Dec 3, 05 at 18:48
When you build this don't forget the floor. Put insulation on the floor also. Heat will travel to the coolest spot so be sure to seal all seams and make the door so the you can seal it when it is shut. I'm in zone 9 in Florida and I get away with making walls out of 1 x 2 lumber and covering both side with plastic foil, or what ever it is called. Visquine maybe the name of it. If you have the space give yourself enough room to move things around in there. Ventilation, heating, and light will have to be kind of a what works for you. Please be careful so that you don't create an unsafe situation. Make sure all electrical circuits are fused and all flammable material is out of the way. Hope I don't sound too critical on this stuff but you need to keep all of this in the plans. Wish you good luck. asparagusfinger |

Five Fresh Innovations in Solar Technology
Clean Technica
It's true—amazing solar tech innovations just keep coming. Some advances come in the form of new handheld devices and applications. Others promise to elevate solar into a mainstream energy source that may one day replace greenhouse-gas-emitting fossil fuels. Here are five recent innovations that have left both solar experts and newbies in a daze.
Renewables From Vestas to Suntech Plan Profit Without Subsidy
Renewable energy companies are approaching the point where they can generate electricity at a price competitive with fossil-fuels without subsidies, the biggest wind and solar manufacturers said.
In Defense of Clean Energy
After months of standing by as Republicans tried to gut environmental laws and discredit his clean energy initiatives, President Obama took the offensive in his State of the Union address.
Au revoir D.C.! Solar Decathlon relocates to sunny Southern California
Well, it looks like the Solar Decathlon officially has a new home and it's not exactly a big shocker that the 2013 edition will not be held in or around Washington, D.C.

Beautiful purple cauliflower heads that cook to bright green and have a fine, sweet flavor. An insect-resistant variety that is easier to grow than most white varieties and is rich in minerals. (60-85 days)
Each packet contains approximately 200 seeds.
Planting Instructions:
Start seeds 4-6 weeks prior to desired transplanting date. Seedlings need bright artificial light or full sun; a cold frame is ideal. Set plants out 4 weeks prior to last frost date in the spring or 4-6 weeks before first frost when fall-planting. Plants need rich soil and abundant moisture to produce well. After the main head is harvested, plants often produce smaller florets over a long season. Always harvest broccoli just before flowers open. Spring plantings often bolt to seed in hot summer weather.

A number of interior doors were changed in our house, but were never finished so they are bare wood. The doors are solid pine six panel doors and are probably 5 years old. There is some dirt on the sirfaces from use over the years, mostly near the knob and at the edge from people pushuing them open and closed. The trim is original (house built in the early 60's) and is laquered/varished not painted. I figure I can find a stain close enough to match the trim. I looking for direction/recommendations on prep work before stainig. Should I wash the bare wood? Should I just sand everything? Any help is appreciated. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Don't wash the wood - sand it. Wetting the wood will raise the grain. Pine is soft and may absorb too much stain - and be very dark - especially seen on edges of the raised panels. Whatever stain you buy, you should get a compatible stain sanding sealer. |

Don't wash the wood - sand it. Wetting the wood will raise the grain. Sanding will just grind the dirt into the wood, you need to clean it first. |
Pine can get very blotchy when staining it. I have stained many pine doors and always use a wood conditioner prior to staining. There are several different brands available at paint stores and big box stores. |

In the technology driven world, websites have become the magical tool that give companies the ability to connect and interact with consumers and provide a sneak peak into the company's value's and services. It's important that a company utilizes this opportunity to create an experience for its clients to evoke the sense of loyalty in them.
Our friends at WhoIsHostingThis have created an infographic with a checklist that will help you develop a marketing strategy that creates a bond between you and your consumer.
Here are the key points from the infographic:
- The first step before asking others to know you is to know yourself. Choose your niche that you have to offer to your customers.
- Know your market to understand your company's potential.
- Evaluate your competition. Use a backlink tool to get a closer look at the links to the competition. Good tools include: Open Site Explorer, Ahrefs, Majestic SEO.
- Your domain is an important tool for generating marketing buzz. Build your domain around popular words that are short and memorable.
- Pay attention to monthly search volume to understand the topic's popularity.
- The more competitive a keyword is, the harder it may be to rank higher for the phrase.
- Focus on conversion related keywords.
- People spend 80% of their time above the fold. To keep the readers engaged, utilize an attention grabbing headline, a image or video for explanation, benefits, and finally a call to action.
- Evoke emotion! Emotion is a key aspect of virality. When your content makes readers "feel" something, there are more likely to share it.
- Use multiple analytical tools and use the data to make improvements.
- Create and maintain a social media presence by actively building your fan base, posting in a timely manner, and providing reader friendly content.
- Have an inbound-marketing strategy to guide and track your progress.

Priory strings play to honor 100th anniversary of Titanic's sinking | Schools
Title (Max 100 Characters)
The St. Andrew's Priory all-girl string orchestras paid homage to the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic on Friday night, Feb. 10, inside Kennedy Hall Courtyard.
Among the pieces performed were the Oscar-winning theme from the 1997 blockbuster movie, "My Heart Will Go On," and "Carpathia," a tragic piece about the RMS Carpathia which raced to the rescue of Titanic survivors from the icy seas.
The Carpathia's effort was a heroic but often forgotten one. Upon receiving the radio transmission of the Titanic's position, the captain of the Carpathia ordered all available to personnel to the boiler rooms to keep the boilers at full pressure. He even ordered steam heat in passenger cabins turned off so that energy could be conserved for speed in the all-out dash to save Titanic's passengers. The ship vibrated from the strain on the engines but Carpathia made it to the site of the sinking and brought aboard 750 people who pulled alongside Carpathia in crammed lifeboats. The survivors were taken to New York.
Carpathia itself went to the bottom of the ocean when it was struck by a German U Boat during World War I.
Mezzo soprano Naomi Castro, the Priory choir teacher, sang "My Heart Will Go On," accompanied by the chamber strings and advanced intermediate strings.
Titanic sank on April 15, 1912, after hitting an iceberg, and 1,517 passengers died. It was the largest passenger steamship in the world at the time.

"This is a wonderfully beautiful and delicious cake that is sure to impress and very easy to make. The hardest thing about making this cake is to let it sit for 3 days in the fridge. The first one I made only made it 24 hours and it was finished within 48 hours and still tasted good. I can't imagine what it would taste like after 3 days. T..."
"Loved this recipe. Used applesauce to cut down on the oil and agave to cut down on the sugar by using 3/4 of it and the rest of the oil and sugar recommended. I also added a little oatmeal and cut back on the flour and some sliced almonds. They baked up nice and were not too sweet. A nice healthy guilt free baked good with coffee in the mornin..."
"This was soooooo good. I served it with poached halibut and it was a perfect pairing. I cooked the cubed squash in butter in the oven until slightly tender....don't overcook. I used bacon and set it and the squash aside. Use good quality or homemade stock as this is a critical ingredient in the dish. It was really rather simple and I've alway..."
"We tasted these beans while visiting Greece recently and thought the creamy rich flavor was so good that we found a specialty store at home and made them last night. I followed this recipe but added some left over Rabbit Stifado (that we also had and loved in Greece and made the night before). It had a similar base and just added some more broth..."

With one swing, Greenbrier's Spencer Duffie provided a jolt that lasted the rest of the game.
Wolfpack coach Chris Wilkins now hopes the spark portends long-term success.
Greenbrier (9-2) jumped ahead with Duffie's home run and proceeded to score multiple runs in each of the last four innings in a 9-4 win Thursday night against Harlem.
"It was definitely big, I thought," Duffie said. "We finally started hitting the ball. Hopefully it sticks."
Lincoln County High School took advantage of its opportunities Wednesday while Grovetown didn't, and it cost the Warriors.
The Warriors stranded four men in the first three innings and the Red Devils (6-4) used an eight-run sixth inning en route to the 10-2 win.
There was plenty for Warriors head coach Mike Jones to be unhappy about in the pivotal sixth inning, which began with the teams tied at 1.
After allowing a one-out walk, Warriors starting pitcher Phillip Dukes appeared to have thrown out the Red Devils' Tom Reeb on a bunt attempt, but Reeb was called safe.

Crate Late Model driver Brian Ligon set the fastest time in qualifying, started on the pole and never looked back for the win in Saturday racing at Grovetown's Gordon Park Speedway.
Chris Shaw took the checkered flag in Super Street and broke Andy Stewart's string of wins. Shaw was followed by Kenneth Harn and Jeff Hadden.
Dale Wisnieski powered his way to a Stock V8 win.
Softball players who attended The Jessica Mendoza Experience at Greenbrier High School on Saturday got to see what makes the heart of a champion.
Mendoza, who won gold and silver medals with the U.S. Olympic softball team and is now a professional softball player, spent five hours with 40 Greenbrier High and local softball players in what was part clinic and part motivational session.
Another girls basketball season is in the books, and like football and boys basketball, the crop of young talent in the county was incredible. While the county did not have any teams make a deep playoff run this year, things could change over the next few seasons.
Augusta Christian posted 21 victories. Grovetown had a solid year at 17-10. The Evans girls enjoyed some resurgence on the hardwood this season.
Also, there were several individuals whose performance warranted special recognition. Here is the 2011-12 Girls All-County Team:
First Team
For Grovetown High shortstop Cameron Busby, baseball is it.
The 16-year-old sophomore has been playing since he was 5 years old and has started at shortstop since coming to the school.
"I never played any other sport," said Busby. "I love baseball. I love coming out here every day, working hard."

Such as: Actinovate, MycoGrow, RootShield and other products designed to reduce the incidence of soil-borne fungal infections through antagonism. What crops have you used them on, and what disease suppression did you notice? The more input, the better! Thanks :) |

I just don't really believe in buying stuff in a bottle to spray on my garden. So I can't speak for the products you mentioned. But, I do make my own compost tea which works great on every plant in my garden. If anyones interested, Dr. Elaine Ingham has tons of very good information on growing food more "naturally". |
Slimy - several discussions about using them over on the Tomatoes forum. Tomatoes are probably the most affected crop when it comes to soil borne diseases so they are the target crop when it comes product marketing. Potatoes and peppers less so and most other common garden vegetables have a minimal soil borne disease relationship. What crop/soil borne diseases specifically are you exploring their use with? Dave . |
- Posted by Slimy_Okra 2b (My Page) on Sun, Jul 13, 14 at 19:24
OK, I will search that forum then. Thanks. Tomatoes should be close enough, given that it's mostly about issues with Verticillium in eggplant and pepper. The areas in question were rotated to grass for several years but still didn't quite eliminate the fungus (and I have limited area) so I would need an approach beyond just crop rotation in the future. Too bad there aren't any resistant eggplants or hot peppers. |

text: Roses and orchids and jasmine oh my! I can't stop inhaling the vapors of this liquor. It smells like the purest perfume (I'm actually seeing white flowers when I breathe in) balanced with one of my personal favorite scents: cedar. Somehow the tea found its way to my lips and took me by surprise, I actually gasped. This is sooo heavenly, it tastes just like it smells and more. Reminds me of the lilies of the valley that grow under my parents oak tree. White choral bells upon a slender stalk, I can here my mother singing. I love Yaboa on its own, for its sparkling sweet hay notes, but this, this is nothing short of alchemy!

But let's say you already accept the reality of climate change. Or that you don't. Either way, "Chasing Ice" by Jeff Orlowski is heart-stopping in its coverage of the brave and risky attempt by a scientist named James Balog and his team of researchers on the Extreme Ice Survey, where "extreme" refers to their efforts almost more than to the ice. At a time when warnings of global warming were being dismissed by broadcast blabbermouths as "junk science," the science here is based on actual observation of the results as they happen. When opponents of the theory of evolution say (incorrectly) that no one has ever seen evolution happening, scientists are seeing climate change happening right now — and with alarming speed. Here is a film for skeptics who say "we don't have enough information."
James Balog has photographed many stories and films for National Geographic, often about endangered species. This time he bit off more than most people would be terrified to chew. During repeated expeditions to Greenland, Iceland, Alaska and Montana, his team took stop-motion cameras, anchored them in place, and shielded them from violent winter weather. Some were destroyed, and they returned with improved installations, using ingenious methods to match up camera locations in a constantly evolving ice-scape of blinding white.
The Extreme Ice Survey has been collecting the results since 2007. The images in this film are mostly three years old, but definitive. We see glaciers retreating from ice mountains to expose the rock they rest on. One glacier loses the height in ice of the Empire State Building. We join a team of Balog's scientists as they hunker down inside anchored tents and wait days to film in real time an event they know is about to happen: The "calving" of an iceberg as a large chunk breaks off into the sea. I believe I saw some of this same footage on the news, but this film provides the context, and an idea of the scale I didn't get on TV: The chunk that breaks off is the size of lower Manhattan!
Did some of that melting ice later visit Manhattan in the form of Hurricane Sandy? Does melting ice cause a rise in the global sea level? Does the bathtub fill up when you turn on the tap? As a scientist, how can you be sure the very ice you're standing on won't crumble beneath your feet?
You can't be. At one point Balog and his colleagues want to photograph a glacier that is already rotting, with streams of water pouring down sinkholes that descend out of sight. Using spiked shoes and pitons, they advance down the frozen side of one of these sinkholes, and he decides: "I'm not going down there. It's bottomless."
Balog himself is in the tradition of Arctic explorers who endure great pain to carry out their missions. Born in 1952, the craggy scientist isn't a young man when he conducts his treks across the ice, and eventually undergoes four knee surgeries. He tells his doctor: "I could feel chunks of bone moving around inside my knees. I realize I was masking the pain with steroids and medication." The damage he did was severe, and yet in the next season, we see him returning again to inspect his cameras — on crutches.
The opponents of the theory of global warming often seem to be financed by the fossil fuel industries. The "green" teams looking into such energy sources as solar, wind and nuclear are often ridiculed. Watch "Chasing Ice" and see if you laugh.
Note: Photographer James Balog will host a Q&A session after the 7:20 p.m. screening.

I am concerned about the lack of coverage for the daily violation of women's rights that occurs on the labor and delivery unit.
The architectural design of two newly built public maternity hospitals in Malawi, which has one of the world's highest rates of women dying in childbirth, seeks to respect the human rights of birthing women and has had a significant impact on Malawi's maternal health care system. Ill-designed government-run maternal health centers litter many poor countries and contribute to unacceptably high maternal death rates. There's a pressing global need to design public maternity units that uphold the dignity of socially disadvantaged women.
Citizen volunteers are at the front lines of a community-driven initiative for saving lives and preserving health for women in Kissidougou.
Rachel Sabbath honors the biblical matriarch who died in childbirth. As Rachel Sabbath approaches, a rabbi underscores the moral and human dimensions of reproductive health and rights, and urges every one of us to act.
Republican supporters of this bill and their witnesses repeatedly asserted in the hearing that abortion is never necessary to save a woman's life. That is simply not true.
It's been said that in an unequal world, women are the most unequal among equals. Obstetric fistula is a living example of this statement.
Awatif is from Darfur, Sudan and is a survivor of fistula who turned her own suffering and ultimate good fortune into a quest to help other women.
The U.S. has shockingly high rates of maternal death, especially among marginalized communities such as women of color. The human right to health care, particularly maternal health care, is not being met in the US. But we can change this.
Women's health and rights advocates today applauded the appointment of Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin of Nigeria as executive director of the United Nations Population Fund.
Approximately 26,000 African women die as a result of unsafe abortion every year. Another 1.7 million are hospitalised, and many others also suffer serious health complications, but never seek treatment. We can save these women.

What i ate was good but since i have visit it has reopen under new management so i have not re-visited.
A nice place with good food, but the service was poor, and I think the place is overrated for what you get.
We had already eaten, but stopped in right as they were opening. Friendly (I assume Manager) at the bar. They were putting out a happy hour spread of large shrimp. Drinks were good. Only complaint cable was out and opening ceremony of Olympics. We would return.
The building and what they have done with it is quite charming. Our service could not have been better. We both got a seafood dish served over rich, creamy grits. Delicious!
The Ice House has been under different owners and managements in the last couple of years. It now has a very good manager and staff! Several of my friends and I eat there mostly weekly and at least 2-3 times a month. We often sit next to another group of friends including the Mayor of Madison and other prominent citizens... More

A shop owner in Madison said that the Icehouse did shrimp well. They did not have shrimp scampi and the shrimp pasta dish I ordered was mediocre. The service was slow and the server made us feel like she wanted us to leave quickly throughout the evening. Very unsatisfying!!
On our recent visit, the Ice House food was quite good, but the service was terrible. If a party of two comes in and all of the tables for two are taken, they won't seat you at a table for four. We waited an hour to be seated, while empty tables for four were available, and were only placed at... More
From the extra sweet hostess looking after my aged aunt, to the yummy chicken sandwich, to the free bonus chocolate strawberries ... This was a nice treat, and is recommended. They really care and are working hard to make a happy experience.
After a beautiful January day riding around the Lake Oconee area, we were looking forward to visiting the Icehouse for dinner on our way home. We thought it was unusual that there were not very many cars in the lot and that we were able to be seated immediately even though it was peak dining time around 7 pm. These... More

This is my first fall with my ET seedlings in the garden bed (or at least the first batch of seeds from 2003). They are putting out some new growth. Do you compost them at all or fertilize at this time of year to encourage additional growth or wait till the spring? I don't think mine will flower this spring, but it would be a nice surprise.
As always your feedback is appreciated. |

I'm inclined to say you're a bit late to feed this year in Zone 6. Best to feed through spring and summer with dilute half strength liquid fertiliser. Feeding this late can promote soft growth which just before fall is not the best idea. By mid to late summer I lay off and let the plant firm up for the winter. Cheers Greenmanplants |

I can't leave anything alone. That's my problem. If something has 9000 calories in it, I find a way to make it richer, denser, fatter.
I'm a freakshow like that.
Take these brownies, for example. They are BROWNIES. Brownies are great on their own, right? Why yes, yes they are. And these brownies are actually from a box – again, a new Duncan Hines box mix, this time the Turtle Brownies. I've been really enjoying these quick and easy mixes from Duncan Hines, though it's completely against the Foodie Code of Conduct, I think. I never got a contract to sign or anything, but I think it's frowned upon.
Like I said, I didn't sign anything. And it's freaking good, requires zero work, and I can concentrate on other things, like how to make them even more ridiculous. In this case, by adding a healhty amount of homemade sea salt caramel. And then a layer of thick and gooey marshmallow creme. And then huge marshmallows…and then I toast it all to burn that sugar just a bit. Oh, then I add buttery chocolate to the top, because, well, I can.
I can hear your arteries clogging from here…but oh, what a way to go.
I named these morsels of sin Mississippi Mud Snapping Turtle Brownies because they combine two incredible treats: Mississippi Mud Brownies (Brownies with marshmallows, nuts, and a layer of chocolate on top), and Turtle Brownies (brownies with nuts and caramel). I threw the "snapping" in there because of my childhood. Growing up, we used to fish in the pond by my grandmothers house, and it never failed that we'd catch a mean old snapping turtle. Vicious and always biting… Just like these brownies.
Enjoy them!
Mississippi Mud Snapping Turtle Brownies
makes 20-24
- 1- Duncan Hines Turtle Brownie Box Mix, prepared
- 1/4 cup Salted Caramel (in a pinch you can use ice cream topping)
- 1 small jar Marshmallow Cream
- 1 1/2 cups Marshmallows (I used GIANT ones, cut up)
- 1 cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 tablespoon butter
Preheat oven to 350.
Prepare an 8×8 baking pan with parchment or foil and leaving an overhanging edge for easier brownie removal. Spray the foil/parchment and the pan.
Prepare brownie mix according to directions, but pull out roughly 5 minutes early. Pour caramel over brownies. Add dollops of the marshmallow cream over the still hot brownies, carefully spreading it to cover them. Add the marshmallows. Using your kitchen torch, toast the marshmallows and fluff. If you don't have a torch, that's okay, they just won't get as toasted. Return the brownies to the oven for 5 minutes.
While the brownies are finishing, Melt the chocolate chips for 30 seconds in the microwave, then stir. Add the butter, return to the microwave for 30 additional seconds, stir again. Repeat for 15 second intervals until chocolate and butter are smooth and shiny.
Remove brownies from oven and allow to cool a bit before spreading chocolate over top. Allow to cool completely in refrigerator for 3-4 hours minimum before cutting to allow marshmallow layer to set. Enjoy!
On another note…
Today is my first day at the Culinary Institute. I'm nervous, kids…do I belong here? Can I hang? Will the hat make me look like a dork? Do you want to see how dorky I look? Will a camera even capture that level of dorkiness?
These are all things to consider.
Something else to consider? Coming back here tomorrow…I'll be giving away a wonderful pan from ManPans worth over $130!!
See you then!


text: Electrolux AB said that third-quarter net profit rose 73% on strong sales, but warned that the weakening U.S. market and cost overruns in Europe added uncertainty to its full-year outlook. Net profit for the quarter ended Sept. 30 came to 762 million kronor (approx. US$119 million). Sales totaled 26.4 billion kronor ($4.1 billion), up from 26.1 billion kronor. The company reiterated its outlook that operating income in 2007 is expected to be somewhat higher than in 2006. Yet, it said the risk for further decline in the U.S. appliance market, continued increases in the cost of raw materials, and cost pressures on its European margins add uncertainty to the forecast. "Recently, market conditions in the U.S. market have weakened," said President and CEO Hans Straberg. "We still expect raw material costs to have an adverse effect on the group's operating income in the fourth quarter. At the same time, the group's recent product launches in Europe, which have been well received, have incurred higher than anticipated costs." |

YUCK. Worst stuff I have ever put on my skin!!! I bought this to help with anti -aging. My mom taught me from a very young age that skincare was very important and that its great to start young with anti aging products. This stuff smells REALLY good, but it broke my face out horribly!!! I used it for 3 days and it took me a month and a half to get my skin back to normal afterwards/
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Had samples of this-despite the rave reviews it was just ok-kinda felt heavy-I like creams that eventually sink in. Get samples (try ebay) it wasnt bad, I didnt break out or anything. I like the Avon Renew better
I really loved this! Make my skin look great and moisturized perfectly I just hated the jar...I can honestly say this made my skin look radiant=)
A bit oily for me and I'm not fond of the scent. The opening to the jar is little so it will be interesting to see if I can get all the lotion out when I get down further.
i'm 40 & have been using avon for 10 yrs. i'm halfway through my 1st jar of retroactive, using every night. i have normal/ oily t-zone. i've used many avon night creams + tons of others, but i have to say that this ranks in the top 3. it's not nearly as heavy as many night creams, even tho i wouldn't use it during the day here in the south. i haven't noticed a smell at all, allthough admittedly my nose isn't very sensitive to smells in my cosmetics. like another ,younger reviewer, my skin glowed the next morning after the first use. the clincher for me, what will make me buy this again ( and those over 40 will understand) is that it's so gentle, i can use it under my eyes before any other eye product. it's doesn't burn me AT ALL. this is a rarity for me, MOST night ( AND eye creams!) creams do. using under my eyes helps with dryness during the day and keeps me from buying SO much eye cream! like the others, the jar design needs help but lots of companies don't package with us in mind! i bought this thru an avon rep; the retroactive cleanser and night cream was only $12!!! oh yes...i backordered!!
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I like this stuff a lot. I got the am and pm and eye serum. Well the cream smells really good. It moisturizes nicely. This stuff also evens out my skin too, which really helps.
It was one of the best moisturizer i had ever used, it was so rich and hydrating. I have so far just tried the samples, maybe for a week now and i have noticed a big difference to my skin. Im only 25 but my facial contour is not as youthful as... well, say when i was 18, but this cream improved it so much so I am very pleased with it! I am thinking to get it when i run out of the sample. (hopefully it will be on sale!)
I have been using the retroactive day cream with spf for about a month. The product smells pleasant, and glides over skin for a velvet, smooth touch. I will not be repurchasing again because it has made my complexion worse with whiteheads and cystic acne in various places. It doesn't moisturize well either. It's too bad....
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have had this less than a week, but so far am very impressed. I love the texture (light gel cream) and the smell?....Others have mentioned the smell being overbearing but I find that it's quite pleasant..very girlie :-) As a moisturizer, it has performed nicely at night and in the morning under makeup. My current foundation has SPF so I don't fret over the lack of sun protection in the moisturizer. Unfortunately though, because I have only been using it a week, I can not label HG status just yet. But if the product continues to moisturize without breaking me out then upping to 5 lippies will be well deserved.
I'm still too young to use a night cream, but as an Avon rep, i had this sitting by itself as a leftover product and i finally decided to try it. I have to say, I love everything about it! It goes on so smoothly, it feels sooo nice on the skin, makes the skin smooth all night until day, fixes dry patches, clarifies, and smells really good! It's a shame my mom doesn't use night creams (even though i bought her the exuviance one). But this is def something to purchase from an avon rep, so take a look!

The Third World: a touchstone for Greg Abbott and Joe Biden
WASHINGTON — What do Joe Biden and Greg Abbott have in common? Both see the Third World as a convenient punching bag.
Or maybe it's the new third rail — something better left untouched.
In Dallas on Tuesday, Abbott, the Texas attorney general and leading GOP contender for governor, invoked it as he unveiled a border security plan.
"This creeping corruption resembles Third World country practices that erode the social fabric of our communities and destroys Texans' trust in government," he said.
Democrats, including state Sen. Wendy Davis, who also is running for governor, seized on the language, calling it offensive. The McAllen Monitor has demanded an apology.
In Philadelphia on Thursday, Vice President Biden was making the point that investment in U.S. transportation infrastructure is lagging. For emphasis, he lamented the shabbiness of on the nation's busiest and most prominent airports.
"If I blindfolded someone and took him at 2 o'clock in the morning into the airport in Hong Kong and said, Where do you think you are?' he'd say, 'This must be America, it's a modern airport,' " Biden reportedly said. "If I took him blindfolded and took you to LaGuardia Airport in New York, you must think, 'I must be in some Third World country.' I'm not joking!"
When did the Third World come into vogue in First World political discourse? Is there a memo floating around suggesting that's a helpful phrase, in both parties?

5 He sent messengers to Bil`am the son of Be'or, to Petor, which is by the River, to the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, Behold, there is a people come out from Mitzrayim: behold, they cover the surface of the eretz, and they abide over against me. | 5 sent messengers to summon Balaam son of Beor, who was at Pethor, near the River, in his native land. Balak said: "A people has come out of Egypt; they cover the face of the land and have settled next to me. |
