Being in hospital for any length of time you get to know your fellow inmates (for that's how it feels much if the time) intimately, sometimes too intimately. For the last couple of weeks our ward of five beds has not … Continue reading

Tuesday Night
I am awesome at problem solving.
Luke and I met two friends at Panera and had some yummy soup and lots of laughs.
I am a big fan of the French Onion Soup at Panera but I am seriously afraid to attempt it on my own at home. Same with meatloaf, I'm not yet brave enough to try to cook it at home.
After dinner we planned to go to an ice cream shop but we went to its original location and it had moved.
There were signs saying that it moved behind McDonald's.
The only thing behind McDonald's was a a liquor story.
I don't know what that meant, but we never got our ice cream (or liquor).
After that Luke and I drove around looking at houses that were waaaaay out of our price range.
I have decided I love looking at houses, not houses for me to purchase but houses that are really expensive and beautiful.
Speaking of expensive and beautiful houses are you all still watching RHNJ? Is anybody completely weirded out by how much they refer to bubbies?? I have never heard of this term in my life.

I have a great meatloaf recipe..foolproof if you'd like it! - June 2, 2009 at 10:00 PM

I've been watching RHNJ too, and they do talk about bubbies a lot. Though I have heard that term before, and I think it's kinda cute. I'm thinking of using it more. :) I've never watched any of the other Housewives series, but I've been told that you usually end up with a favorite and one you dispise. I can't say I am overly fond of any of them at this point.

Yum! Panera is the bessssst!

I don't care if it's 100 degrees out when I go to Panera, I ALWAYS get the french onion soup. Love love love it! I made my own back in the fall, and it was actually pretty yummy! Wasn't so good as leftovers, but the night I made it, it was pretty delicious. I'll see if I can find that recipe for you!
Also...elementary education is one of the most rewarding jobs! It drives you crazy some days, but it's SO worthwhile. Especially when you're off for 2.5 months of the year :) If you ever have any questions, let me know! - June 3, 2009 at 3:49 AM

I love love love Panera. It's so yummy. If you're ever there for breakfast, you should try to spinach and artichoke egg souffle. It's my fave. A friend just sent me an Ecookbook that has a lot of famous restaurant recipes such as The Cheesecake Factory, Cracker Barrel, Houstons, Olive Garden, etc. I'm going to send it to the email on your blog. I have trouble trying to figure out what to cook as well when I actually do cook that is. LOL=)

So I didn't see the ending :(
We are looking at a house tonight-maybe I'll take some pictures if I can. We are house hunting-but yes everything seems to be out of our price range, but I really want that 8K tax credit this year and the interest rates are so good I hope we find something!

Movie Review By Erik Lundegaard
How to get cinematic whiplash. Step one: Watch any movie by a quick-cut, mile-a-minute Hollywood director. Step two: Watch a film by Tsai Ming-liang, the Taiwanese director famous, or infamous, for his long, still camera shots ("What Time Is It There?"). It's like going from 100 mph into reverse in a second flat. Tsai is slower than life. He will hold onto a scene of not much happening for minutes at a time, and he'll keep holding long after his characters have moved out of camera range. His movies are long setups without much payoff. They are beautifully photographed, bleak studies of human isolation. They drip. His latest, "Goodbye, Dragon Inn," takes place on the last rainy night of a decrepit old movie theater in Taipei, Taiwan. The theater is grand but sparsely filled, and you can almost smell the mildew. On the screen is a Taiwanese swordplay classic, 1966's "Dragon Inn."
In the audience? A long-nosed fellow (Kiyonobu Mitamura), who seems more interested in the few audience members and only the men than in the film. His longing is palpable. It's a big theater, but people sit close together. Later, in the men's room, they all gather at one end of a long row of urinals. The theater appears to be a gay cruising spot, but no one's doing what's necessary like talking in order to connect. Their lives are long setups without much payoff. A subplot of sorts involves the crippled ticket girl (Chen Shiang-chyi) and the projectionist (Lee Kang-sheng). She steams a bun in her office. Then she contemplates it for 30 seconds. Then she limps down the hallway. For 30 seconds we see her take the stairs from below. For 90 seconds we're upstairs and slowly she comes into view, and then limps through two small doors. Where is she going? What is she doing? I'll cut to the chase: She's leaving half the steamed bun for the projectionist, but he isn't there. Ah. The first line of dialogue occurs halfway through the film, and it's spoken by the projectionist to the long-nosed fellow. "Do you know this theater is haunted?" he says. "Ghosts." He means it both literally in the beginning the theater appears crowded and figuratively. They themselves are like ghosts. They are trapped within their own lives and can't make contact with the outside world. Tsai is hugely popular with film critics, I believe, in part because film critics actually have something to do while watching his films. While the girl is limping down the hallway, we can take notes. Regular theatergoers? They can only watch helplessly. I suppose the hope is that by watching Tsai's films, drop by drop, wisdom comes. It does, but the wisdom is shallow, bleak and one-sided. Erik Lundegaard: firstname.lastname@example.com Copyright © 2004 The Seattle Times Company

Census: More people leaving state than moving inThe Associated Press | February 13,2013MONTPELIER — U.S. Census figures show that for the first time in almost three-quarters of a century Vermont lost population last year, a drop caused by more people leaving the state than moving in.
Even though last year's population decline was small, just under 600, it's part of a broader trend that has seen the state's population growth rate hover just above zero for several years.
University of Vermont Economic Art Woolf says it was the first time since 1944 the state lost population.
Commerce Secretary Lawrence Miller says the trend of losing population or low growth is a challenge to economic development.
The Census Bureau figures showed that Vermont and Rhode Island were the only two states in the country to lose population last year.MORE IN This Just InTwo people were killed in a multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 91, one of several accidents on...

Try pulling a long stem to ground and letting it root before cutting it from main plant. I've also had good luck with finding seedlings around main plant - especially in dry mulch areas nearby. |
- Posted by AgastacheMan z9 CA (My Page) on Sun, Jul 10, 05 at 22:36
What kind of Agastache? I find that foeniculum, rugosa, neomexicana and schrophularia are best raised my seed. Barberi, cana, astromontana, and aurantica cultivars and specie can be propagated by taking internodal cuttings, and applied with humidity, water, and a rooting compound. You will have some propagate better than others, so experiment. I have been growing for about 15 years, both professionally and for my own enjoyment. |
High winds have taken one of my newly planted Agastache x 'Ava' right off at the root base. The plant had grown about 2 ft. Does anyone know if it will come back from the roots & can I propagate what broke off& if so how do I go about that? thanks..... |

This past weekend, aficionados of the Lolita look gathered in New York's Central Park for a Tea Party in honor of International Lolita Day. Taking place but a stone's throw away from the park's larger than life Alice In Wonderland bronze tableau, the affair had a distinct down-the-rabbit-hole air.
When not preoccupied by his pocket watch, the Mad Hatter strummed a guitar, as attendees indulged in sweet treats worthy of the Queen of Hearts herself while elegantly perched on picnic blankets beneath trees in a shaded grove near Belvedere Castle. Though, had the fowl-mouthed monarch from the Lewis Carroll tale been in attendance, she'd likely have disapproved of the fact that her beloved game of croquet was being played with mallets rather than livestock.
International Lolita Day is a curiosity that pays homage to a fashion that emerged out of Japan, which is heavily influenced by clothing from the Victorian era and art in the Rococo style. The idea for the biannual celebration, which occurs on the first Saturdays of June and December so that both Summer and Winter fashions can be displayed, was first floated by the EGL Community on LiveJournal, and is now celebrated in numerous cities around the world.

Suicide Girls love getting dressed up almost as much as they like taking their clothes off. San Diego's monster Comic-Con event is therefore a major highlight on our calendar each year, since it's an excuse to play dress up.
This year we're cooking up an extra-special Comic Con cosplay wardrobe, with a little help from clothing manufacturer and retailer American Apparel, pop-culture event planners Bubble Punch, and our fave Sunset Strip geek emporium, Meltdown Comics.
Comic chic chicks Chubby Bunny and Yume Ninja of Bubble Punch will be designing a series of three different sexy cosplay themed outfits for our ladies to wear while they man our Comic-Con booth. Each of the outfits will be made using basics available at your local American Apparel store. We'll also be producing "How To" videos with the help of our friends from Meltdown so you can recreate the costumes the Suicide Girls will be wearing to Comic Con at home.
The three "How to" videos – one for each SG cosplay costume – will be posted on SuicideGirls' Facebook page in June. The costumes will then be debuted live at a special pre-Comic Con party to be held at Meltdown Comics on July 7th. Follow @SuicideGirls on Twitter for up to the minute news, updates, and photos.
You can also catch our ladies in their unforgettable cosplay outfits at booth #1730 of Comic Con San Diego 2012. If you're planning on attending the convention on more than one day, be sure to come back and visit us again, since our team of sexy booth girls will be cosplaying new outfits each day!

I don't really have to sell you on this one. The Dark Side sells itself.
by Bob Suicide
I don't plan on ever growing up, though I do plan on single-handedly keeping the vinyl toy industry in business for many years to come. You name it, I've got it –– or it's on preorder. However, even my embarrassingly childish addiction has standards. I have Legos, GI Joes, Transformers, Star Trek and Star Wars figures and replicas, plus Munnys and Dunnys of all sizes, but, I'm not –– and never really was –– a "Barbie girl." I had a few as a kid, but even then I was more excited about my X-Men and Power Ranger figures than any doll.
However, I recently admitted a secret shame: "Typically, when I go to the toy store (which is often) to look for totally justifiable and not at all embarrassing toys, I make a small but shameful detour down the doll aisle." And, recently, I even bought a few. Not Barbies, but Mattel's similar line of dolls: Monster High.
Barbie has often been the target of body and self-image criticism. Thanks to her impossible anatomical proportions, moms across the globe decry the doll's destruction of their child's self-esteems –– but always after purchasing one or two because their daughters just had to have one. All the while, the overwhelming majority of girls rabidly desire and play with their dolls completely oblivious to the negative stigma their parents place upon them.
What I lack in "Barbie" fandom I make up for in love for Tokidoki designer Simone Legno, who recently released his own Tokidoki branded doll: the first officially tattooed Barbie. (There were two prior dolls that came with stickers mimicking temporary tattoos, but, since we're getting technical, anything non-permanent doesn't count.) With his amazing sense of art and style, Simone has done an amazing service to promote the acceptance of the beauty of tattoos within mainstream society. The doll is a perfect blend of the Tokidoki and Barbie brands. He's mixed them together in a way that doesn't compromise either. Part of me looks at that doll and says, "Fuck yeah. She looks cool." Everything about the design is beautiful and "hip." There's an amazing attention to detail and the tattoos in particular portray Simone's love of Japanese art that underlies all of his work.
There are few things in our American culture that are so identifiable as products of the "American Dream." Coca Cola's one and Barbie is another. They've been around for ages and while they maintain a classic aesthetic, they subtly evolve as the societal outlook changes. As tattoos are becoming more culturally accepted, it's exciting to finally have a Barbie with tattoos. It's exciting to think one of the largest toy manufacturers in the country, which boasts the country's best selling doll –– a doll that has been defining standards of beauty for decades –– has now embraced tattoos. And, by dint of wearing those tattoos, Barbie and her parent company have declared tattoos to be both feminine and beautiful too.
As a kid, I never looked to my Barbie dolls for aspirational images of who or what I could be or how I should look and, honestly, I don't think most kids do. Toys are toys. Toys don't shape a kid's personality. Children pick toys that reflect their own inner character traits. I didn't look at my Wild C.A.T.s Zealot figure thinking I was going to become a covert warrior-spy. I liked that figure because I was already a strong girl with a penchant for the wilder side. As an adult however, I find the reverse bleeding into my conscious and I see why parents can easily label a doll as a "role-model." So I'm pleased –– and even slightly inspired –– to see my formerly subversive love of lowbrow art and tattoos proudly emblazoned on one of America's biggest icons.
But, another part of me can't seem to get over the fact that, with the overabundance of pink and the perfectly bobbed hair, she's eerily similar to Paris Hilton, which is not the best foot forward when it comes to portraying tattoos within the mainstream. If Barbie is an aspirational ambassador, the way parents like to portray her, I can understand the concern they might have for a day when "socialite" replaces "princess" as the number one thing little girls want to be when they grow up. But the same can be said of many of the Barbie dolls on the shelf. When each doll comes with matching purse and a mini dog that fits inside, when the "Dream Mansion" has its own massive walk in closet for shoes, it's unfair to single this one doll out as the harbinger for the tacky, classless persona of a famous for being famous reality TV star. If this doll gets a scarlet "H," they all do.
My ultimate gripe is with the "minivan mom's" rallying cry that tattoos set a bad example for young girls. The gist of their complaint can be summed up by a comment from the Ms Twixt website for parents of Tween-age girls:
"Encouraging children that tattoos are cool is wrong, wrong, wrong."
In reality, this doll isn't meant to be a walking ad for the tattoo industry; It's not even meant for children. It's a $50 doll, and like the original plastic lady who inspired her, Bild Lilli, this Barbie is clearly marketed to the adult collector. While I can happily whip up a scenario whereby the fact that Barbie, as a shining example of the American Dream, has endorsed tattoos means that body art and modification is beautiful (as I just did), the truth of the matter is this is just a piece of lowbrow art which happens to take the form of a doll. While the doll is a highly publicized and identifiable one that's typically marketed to children, the reality is two business saw the opportunity for a branding partnership and a hot pop-art designer modified an existing product for a high-end and limited run directed and solely marketed at collectors. No child is going to run their sticky fingers across a Tokidoki Barbie box on a WalMart shelf and the creators never intended that scenario to occur.
The doll aside, why is "encouraging" children to get tattoos wrong –– other than the fact those kids are going to be really bummed when they ride their trike up to the local shop to get their very own body mod and get turned away when they don't have proper ID. There are laws set in place to ensure underage children can't get tattoos. Doodling on skin with a sharpie never hurt anything but the occasional couch or really nice shirt (somthing I did ALL the time as a kid). Showing a child a picture of a doll or a person with a tattoo on them doesn't immediately mean your toddler's going to come home from preschool with a set of sleeves. Many of their real-life role models –– who are seen as wholesome and positive influences –– have them. Justin Bieber has a tattoo (don't judge me for knowing that, I already feel enough shame!), and the only negative thing he's ever inspired kids to get is really stupid haircuts (and his albums!).
Maybe the real answer is to let kids be kids, people be people, and dolls be dolls.

Back in my post about Emerald City Comic Con, I highlighted Rexa a monster pornography art book by Jason "JFish" Fischer, and hoped I'd be able to preview some pages from his upcoming work. Well, Fischer was kind enough to send me a couple pages from a book he's debuting at the Stumptown Comics Festival in Portland this weekend called Junqueland written by Robin Bogert. He says the story is about "a couple of monsters having tasty fun in a bakery."
So . . . yeah. Check it out. Shit's crazy, and as far as I can tell, about some dinosaurs fucking, but it's probably much deeper than that. Or not. Whatever. Who cares, it's rad.

Mulberry Vanity Chair
A Goldilocks find--just right
While this chair would be absolutely posh at a vanity table, I decided to use it in my "mom get away/art studio/guest bedroom". I have a daybed to sit on but found it too uncomfortable for my 5'3" frame. In fact, I often have trouble finding furniture that fits--the seat depth is too long or the height is too high so I feel like Goldilocks in Papa Bear's too big chair. This chair, however, fits my small frame perfectly! I also like the armless style that accommodates my knitting and reading hobbies. The back of the chair angles back rather than bolt upright so I can relax and watch TV or catch a nap comfortably.
The fabric is rather an odd in-betweeny sort of color--kind of a deep brown/berry color but that's a good thing. It can blend in with a good range of colors, browns, red, pinks, even purples and blues.

Mullbery Chair
Initially i was a tad disappointed, the chair is not cushy at all and it does sit pretty darn low - about 17'' off the ground... My NYC studio is tiny though, so the scale doesn't bother me too much, although I would love it if the seat were made softer and with more cushion.
But it's a great looking chair and I'm a sucker for looks so she stays! Will most definitely be getting an ottoman for more lounging opportunities.

Item 8e on the Schedule MB asks for the difference between the minimum required contributions with and without the amortization extension. I have a client, who took an amortization extension, however the minimum required contribution was zero before and after the amortization extension was recognized (due to large credit balance) and therefore the difference is also zero.
There are no instructions for this line item so we cant really tell what the IRS intended, but since they asked for the difference in the minimum required contribution and not the difference in the charges to the funding standard account, I think the answer would be zero.
However, zero seems to be generating an error from EFAST when you try to submit the forms.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

This set of Latest Cognizant Placement paper is collected from on-campus recruitment for the session (2013-14). The questions that are posted below are the exact quantitative aptitude questions collected from Cognizant Online Test conducted by AMCAT.
Details of Cognizant Recruitment process .
No. of Round: 3
Round 1: Online Test
Round 2; Technical Interview
Round 3: HR Interview.
Online Test is conducted by AMCAT (Third party online test application provider).
Details of Online Aptitude Test
English – 25 ( Time allocated: 25 min)
Quantitative aptitude – 16 ( Time allocated: 16 min)
Logical Reasoning – 14 ( Time allocated: 14 min)
Negative Marking - No.
Here are some exact questions collected from Cognizant Online Test conducted by AMCAT.
1. How many 3 digit numbers can be formed from the digits 2,3,5,6,7 and 9 which are divisible by 5 and none of the digits is repeated?
Ans. 20
Explanation: Since each desired number is divisible by 5, so we much have 5 at the unit place.
Now tens place can be filled by any of the remaining 5 digits
The hundreds place can now be filled by any of the remaining 4 digits .
Required number of numbers = (1 * 5 * 4) = 20
2. How many arrangements can be made out of the letters of the word 'MATHEMATICS' be arranged so that the vowels always come together ?
Ans. 120960
Explanation: In the word 'MATHEMATICS' we treat vowel AEAI as one letter thus we have MTHMTCS(AEAI)
now we have to arrange 8 letters out of which M occurs twice ,T occurs twice & the rest are different
Number of ways of arranging these letters = 8! / (2!)(2!) = 10080
Now AEAI has 4 letters in which A occurs 2 times and the rest are different
Number of ways of arranging these letters = 4! / 2! = 12
Required number of words = (10080 * 12) = 120960
3. The sum of the ages of the 5 children's born at the intervals of 3 years each is 50 years what is the age of the youngest child ?
Ans. 4 years
Explanation: Let the age of the children's be
x ,x+3, x+6, x+9, x+12.
x+(x+3)+(x+6)+(x+9)+(x+12) = 50
5x+30 = 50
5x = 20
Age of the youngest child is x = 4 years.
4. A bag contains 6 white and 4 black balls .Two balls are drawn at random .Find the probability that they are of the same color?
Ans. 7/45
Explanation: Let S be the sample space.
Number of ways for drawing two balls out of 6 white and
4 red balls = 10C2
=10!/(8!*2!) = 45.
n(S) =45.
Let E =event of getting both balls of the same color.
Then n(E) = number of ways of drawing ( 2balls out of 6) or
(2 balls out of 4).
= 6!/(4!*2!) + 4!/(2! *2!)
= 6*5/2 +4 *3/2
=15+6 =21.
P(E) =n(E)/n(S) =21/45 =7/45.
5. In how many a committee of 5 members can be selected from 6 men 5 ladies consisting of 3 men and 2 ladies ?
Ans. 200
Explanation: 3 men out of 6 and 2 ladies out of 5 are to be chosen
Required number of ways
= 200
6. A man sold two flats for Rs 675,958 each .On one he gains 16% while on the other he losses 16%. How much does he gain or lose in the whole transaction?
Ans: Loss 2.56%
Explanation: Loss%=[common loss or gain%/10]2=(16/10)2=2.56%
7. The average price of 10 books is increased by 17 Rupees when one of them whose value is Rs.400 is replaced by a new book. What is the price of new book?
Ans. Rs. 570
Explanation: 10 books Average increases by 17 Rupees.So. 10*17= 170.So the new book cost is more and by adding its cost average increase,therefore the cost of new book is 400+170=570.
8. Find least number which when divided by 20,25,35,40 leaves remainders 14,19,29,34?
Ans. 1394
Explanation: 20–14=6
Therefore number = LCM of (20,25,35,40) - 6=1394

Quoted from ABJoe My guess is that there was some healing happening before any real cleaning could happen and now the cleaning has started.Has your diet previously contained a large percentage of avoid foods?
Quoted from BHealthy My previous diet included the following avoids:10oz of raw sheep's milk with 2oz of coffee and an apple before the smoothieCoconut water, coconut milk and aloe gel in the smoothie instead of the chia, banana and cherry concentrate,4oz of raw goat's milk cheese and 1/4 of one cucumber with my lunchAnd the occasional grilled pork tenderloin for dinner.Is that a lot?
Quoted from ABJoe Has it been like this all your life? It doesn't sound like the 80% or so avoid content that my diet was prior to my finding BTD...
Quoted from Lola try the liver cleanse periodicallycastor oil pack at night.....it might get worse before it gets better, but so worth it!!!
Quoted from BHealthy How long will it take to detox those first 50 years?
Quoted from Victoria After following the BTD diet for 11 years, when I started the "book" Genotype diet, I got a headache that lasted 3 months. It wasn't as severe as a migraine, just dull and ongoing. Then, it was gone. I also had weird aches and pains during that time, which also let up on their own. So, in my case anyway, I attributed it to cleansing and adjusting to the new diet. I noticed on your sample menu that you don't eat much protein during the day, until dinner. It doesn't seem to me that you're getting nearly enough.
Quoted from AKArtlover This is an odd question, but the midwest weather has been flopping around- do you notice a difference with weather changes?Cranial adjustment can make a big difference in structure/pressure related headaches. Have you looked at osteopathic cranial manipulation? It got my head "out of a vice" and realligned my jaw so my teeth meet squarely.Here's an interesting link I came across the other day... http://www.headachecontrolclinic.com/
Quoted from ruthiegirl Add some sort of protein to the salad- canned fish or leftover cooked meat. I'm not sure the protein content of all those green powders you use in the smoothie- you may or may not need to add a protein powder to the mix as well.
Quoted from ruthiegirl Since the headache went away when you took the supplements, it sounds like you might have gotten a headache from "not eating enough" rather than from "detox." If you think the krill oil was the clincher, try adding more fats and oils to your diet. I'm not entirely sure what the "organ supplement" is, but could that have contained protein or other nutrients you could have gotten from meat or fish?
Quoted from ruthiegirl I often get headaches when I need to eat, and getting enough protein makes them go away.
Quoted from ruthiegirl Kombucha is a strong detoxifier. It's a wonderful food, full of probiotics, but you may want to reduce your intake (or stop altogether) until the migraines/detox headaches go away.
Quoted from ruthiegirl I can't see any reason for you to stop taking the organ supplement- nothing in there looks like an "avoid" for O's or Hunters, although I don't know the specifics of your SWAMI.
Quoted from kitari I sometimes get headaches in the fall due to high weed pollen and mold in the air. Could seasonal allergies be contributing to your migraines?
Quoted from Victoria Check out Wild Planet for low mercury tuna:http://www.wildplanetfoods.com/Highest-Omega-3-and-Low-Mercury.htmlI just placed an order from Vital Choice for unsmoked sardines packed in organic extra virgin olive oil and sea salt - No BPA cans. They offer 10% discount with the first order. Use code INTC265https://www.vitalchoice.com/shop/pc/viewCategories.asp?pageStyle=h&idCategory=223

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Cashmere!
Facts about Cashmere
- Breed: Domestic Longhair
- Color: White (Mostly)
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Long
Cashmere's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Cashmere - named for the soft of my beautiful furr and my sweet personality. I love all and want a home to share that love. I enjoy kids and I even proudly wore a vest that a child draped over me. Many of the staff wish they could adopt me because they know the secret - that i will make a treasure of a kitty companion. I am one of the sweetest ones around. I will brighten your days and bring a smile to your face. I am 2 years young and ready to go to my forever home.
Other Pets at Brigid's Crossing Foundation
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Cashmere, a Naples Domestic Longhair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Longhair for sale in Naples, or seeking a Domestic Longhair cat from a breeder in Naples.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Naples already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Naples breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Longhair breeders who help with Domestic Longhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Naples paves the way for another one to be saved.

Truck driver released in Whiting hit-and-run
By Michelle L. Quinn Post-Tribune correspondent April 17, 2014 3:48PM
A makeshift memorial has been started at the corner of Euclid Avenue and Indianapolis Boulevard in Whiting. | Michelle L. Quinn~for Sun-Times Media
Updated: May 19, 2014 2:19PM
WHITING — A driver suspected of being involved in a hit-and-run accident was released by the Indiana State Police as detectives continued to examine video footage Thursday.
State police detectives from the Lowell Post obtained video footage from local businesses and are hoping it will shed light on what happened to Angel Villafuerte, the 12-year-old boy who was killed in the accident Wednesday afternoon. The driver of a semitrailer suspected of being involved has since been questioned and released with no charges filed, according to Indiana State Police public information officer Sgt. Trent Smith.
The truck is still impounded, however, as inspectors with the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division complete their work, Smith said in a release.
At Nathan Hale Elementary School, a man wearing a green and white Whiting Schools shirt who refused to identify himself, said the school would not comment on the boy's death.
Whiting Mayor Joe Stahura said Thursday he is deeply saddened by the accident and that his heart goes out to the family.
"I stayed up last night thinking about this, and you wonder what you would do if it were your child. It makes you want to cry," Stahura said.
Stahura said a project the city has scheduled with the Indiana Department of Transportation should slow traffic in the area. That section of Indianapolis Boulevard is set to be widened and will include parking lanes and turn lanes.
As it stands, two stoplights are within 600 feet of each other: one at 119th Street and one at Community Court. As well, the city employs crossing guards that are stationed at both lights before and after school because of heavy traffic on Indianapolis Boulevard.
"We made the decision for crossing guards in that area because of a similar accident that happened 12 or 13 years ago," Stahura said.
Stahura said he expects the accident will be a topic of discussion for residents and encourages ideas and solutions to the traffic issues in that area.
Angel's brother, Michael Calzada, 16, who was with Angel when he was hit, said Wednesday night his brother was walking ahead of him and that he called to him to wait, so the younger boy did not walk into traffic. He said his brother was sucked off the curb by the force of the speeding truck.
Evan Dozier, who lives about a half a block from the accident scene, said he watches traffic on that stretch of Indianapolis Boulevard and wonders why there aren't more accidents because of speed.
"It's supposed to be 30 mph, but you see semis going 50, 60 mph all the time," Dozier said. "Either they need to make the signs bigger or the numbers brighter, but people go too fast down this street."

What's your current Trash to Treasure project? I spent FOUR days last week cleaning out the basement. (Yep, it was that bad.) One of the (few) things that I salvaged was an old iron (metal?) wood rack. Think it's gonna become a table to put in front of our livingroom windows. If it stops raining (hope it doesn't - we need it!) I'll post a photo so you guys can give me some ideas on it. Think it's gonna get a coat of black paint and a heavy glass top put on it. DH says smoked glass, but I told him I don't know that I've seen any of that since the 70s! LOL

Nothing fancy. I bought a really cheaply made dresser of pressed wood and cardboard like wood from a garage sale a week ago. I didn't notice the weird old wood smell until I brought it home. I cleaned it and spray painted it to lock the smell in. I'm going to decoupage it in newspaper and then sponge paint over that so I have something cute to store school supplies so the kids will quit digging through my scrapbooking stuff. |
I am making a BB for a best friend, gluing marbles. Also working on remaking a brass lamp that I trash picked. It is in pieces so I'm antique-ing it with copper paint and making candle holders. Also I'm trying to collect old suitcases to finish my stacked table. Totem making is a constant pasttime as I collect glass (like florist vases!!!LOL) And finally I'm working on my junk Christmas tree. That should keep me busy . Alice |

I'm making another glass-on-glass garden window as well as working on bowling balls. Will post photos soon. |
I have a little doctor's cabinet that I am getting ready to paint. It is metal, has a porcelain top, and is about waist tall with glass in the door, and a shelf. It has a towel bar around three sides of it. Stands on little curved legs. Kind of cute. I saw some in one of Martha Stewart's magazines. Wish I had a tall one, but this is the only one I have been able to find. |

I'm doing glass on glass mosaic on a window again. I had all my windows and doors replaced early this summer and now I have plenty of raw materials (I made them leave the old windows). The new windows and doors cost me a fortune so I don't know if the "trash" they left behind is great or reallllllllly expensive trash . . . . |
I've been spraypainting a lot of my metal pieces (old three tiered plate rack and standing plate stand) black and pulling out fall stuff to see what I have. Also hitting the goodwill shops and finishing my kitchen. Still looking for old garden stuff. |
Yesterday I spent the afternoon chipping the paint off of a little rolling wire stand with three shelves. I found it sitting on the curb. It had some kind of rubberized paint on it but a lot was chipped off. It was fairly easy to flake off and I am going to paint it and put it in my computer room. The shelves are just about the size of a dvd case. I don't have that many, but it could hold a few books too. However, I bet the darn little thing didn't sell for $10 brand new...so I don't know if it was worth the work of taking all the paint off. I told myself that it will just look a whole lot cooler painted green than if I got a new one with that white, rubberized paint. Besides, I never buy anything new. I'd rather find a piece of junk or buy something at a yard sale. |
I have a black wrought iron flower pot holder, for a half pot. It has been hanging on my fence in the back yard for years. Yesterday I painted it green and am hanging it in my bath room to hold hand towels. I'm going to hang it on a wooden drawer pull, screwed in the stud of the wall. |

Here's my garden window - stained glass scraps and one of my old house windows. I just grouted it this morning and am waiting for it to dry to polish and finish up. I'll see if I can get a decent picture of it with some better light behind it. |

WOW! The window is beautiful!!! I've been collecting "stuff" to do some mosaic work, but haven't jumped into it yet :0) The window is sure an inspiration...somewhere, far up the road :0) gardenlady |
I love that window! Day before yesterday I found a small table sitting by the curb. It is made out of oak, but had a wood fiber top that had stars painted on it. The top was sagging, so I took it over to my friend's house and removed the top. It has a thin little groove for another top...thinking about using hardi plank and covering the top with half marbles. I wish I could do a mosaic...I have bought books on the subject and tools...just haven't jumped in...probably because I can't stand another unfinished project around here. I need to see if I have enough half marbles to do the top. |
Geeze, you guys are good! I've been LOL all morning reading this forum. The BB Gazing Balls nearly knocked me off my chair laughing - never dreamed of such a thing. You all are improving my mind! The dirt here needs so much improvement that I have changed to container gardening 99 44/100% (I have a couple of poke week plants growing between my fence and a neighbor's fence) and have been looking for odd and unusual containers. I found a couple of witches pots (plastic) and have been picking up ceramic rusty-colored clay posts at the landfill's "Too Good To Throw Away" place. I've been painting those with "Patio Paint" and putting them in a cabinet until I get some inspiration about further painting decoration for next spring. Also found some plastic or vinyl window boxes and think I'll try and paint their faded surfaces - see how that works in the sun and rain. Anyone tried this? Jois |

Vodka is simple. You could, as one Web enthusiast points out, make it yourself by mixing drugstore ethyl alcohol (avoiding deadly methyl) with distilled water and a little glycerin—now there's some bathtub fun!
The plain nature of vodka explains its need for exquisite marketing and packaging, as well as constant twists on its basic manufacture: I've recently seen vodka made with soy isolates, vodka made from snap-frost French grapes and vodka that is certified organic. At least one brand is distilled five times and filtered nine times, reflecting the fetish for purity that drives the business: purest buzz, most pristine hangover.
But I come to pour vodka, not bury it. There is a place for this drink: the coldest corner of the deep freezer. When the heavy bottle is superbly frosted and the contents a bit thickened, vodka pours into a martini glass like a syrup of the gods—it's what Thor put on his pancakes before taking up his hammer. It coats the inside of the glass and runs down in glistening rivulets. Vodka drunk this way isn't exactly a martini—only gin makes a true martini—but it is a pure meditation on the pleasures and perils of the unmediated CH3CH2OH molecule: clinical, clear, powerful, basic. Veteran tasters claim to find many flavors and aromas from vodka to vodka, but to my palate the good ones range from the ultrasmooth and round to the more bitter and almost rough—and I prefer the latter.
Flavoring vodka with spice or fruit is a centuries-old tradition (bison grass and even garlic have been used). Recently, though, there has been a wave of exotic infusions; where mandarin sufficed, now it's Buddha's Hand Citron; where black currants, now French sour apple. These fancy flavors often end up in complicated cocktails. (Some Manhattan barmen have come entirely unglued, making drinks with fantastically long and nutty ingredient lists. Anyone for a house-infused pommelo vodka with quince syrup, melon liqueur, a bing cherry, Chambord, Everclear, gold foil, champagne, soy milk and a Nicorette?)
My tasting of flavored vodkas was far simpler: into the deep freeze for twenty-four hours, then into a martini glass and down the hatch. Would flavoring bring anything to the party or just mask the drink's pure kick?Herewith, nine flavored vodkas, best drunk icy cold and neat.
From Hangar One, a boutique distiller in California, comes Buddha's Hand Citron Vodka ($38). Flavored with a bizarre citrus that looks like a clump of yellow, warty carrots, it has a gorgeous aroma. Buddha's Hand Citron smells of lemon peel and blossoms, with a lemon tang and a slightly woody flavor that isn't too sweet. Among the citrus vodkas, this is a standout.
Grey Goose Le Citron ($35) is one of the most balanced flavored vodkas I've tasted: fresh lemon-peel zing in the aroma and on the tongue. Who knew the French made such good vodka?(See sidebar on the unflavored Ciroc.) Unlike some of the rest, this one tastes more like a vodka than like a high-test liqueur.
Hangar One Kaffir Lime ($38), a spirit inflected with the lime whose leaves are the source of the distinctive grassy, citrus flavor of certain Thai dishes, carries a flavor often left out of westernized Thai kitchens. This vodka has an aggressive lime-confection character without much exotic kaffir quality. If the thought of eighty-proof lime sorbet appeals to you, here's your drink.
Don't be put off by the vivid green-apple-candy aroma of Citadelle Apple Vodka ($33), from the French makers of the superior, complex, spicy Citadelle gin. It is exceptionally smooth and ultradrinkable, perhaps because it's distilled five times—pretty much an appletini in a bottle.
OP ($22), from the Absolut empire, is a vodka flavored with aquavit spices plus orange, peach and ginger. I associate aquavit with some very good times with Swedish friends that variously involved singing, maypoles, the glint of sun on the North Atlantic and a certain feeling that at any moment public nudity would break out. Real aquavit is a rich, sweet, spicy drink that needs the freezer to keep it from being too unctuous. OP leverages the aquavit style in a smartly designed bottle aimed at stylish bar crowds. Its dominant aroma is orange, its flavor sweetly spicy, like an orange spice cake. I like it, though I still prefer OP Anderson Aquavit.
The notion behind Dirty Olive ($25) is to infuse American vodka with the tang of the so-called dirty martini, but the effect is overdone. The result is so strong on olive flavor that drinking it is like swigging the pickling juice from the bottom of the cocktail-olive jar.
Perhaps it's the cranberry color, but I had to get past some cough-medicine associations before I could enjoy Soomska ($22), an ashberry-flavored vodka. Infused with the fruit of the mountain ash, Soomska is tangy, not sweet, and has a nice tart finish.
Imagine a drink for Russian chocoholics: a fudgesicle set on fire. That's Kremlyovskaya Chocolate Vodka ($25): alcohol wallop and a persistent mild, creamy chocolate flavor, but not overly sweet, with a remarkable chocolaty nose. I'm surprised to say I rather liked it. But the nyet effect of its polar opposite, Stolichnaya Vanilla Vodka ($27), was less salutary. To me, Stoli vanilla smells industrial-buttery, like the inside of a microwave popcorn bag. That impression dominates though the label claims genuine Madagascar and Indonesian vanilla are used. Taste?Imagine slurping vanilla pudding in a sanitarium.
Do these vodkas belong in your home bar?I say yes. There is no question that flavored vodka has a girls'-night-out reputation, but this scotch-neat partisan likes the octane and flavor of the best of the bunch in their pure, ice-syrup state. They sit somewhere between the martini and the fruity cocktail, and that's a fine place for a slow-sipping summer evening.
A Very Vine Vodka
Everyone in my Wednesday poker group who tried Ciroc—including a die-hard Stoli-rocks fan—enjoyed the new French vodka distilled from "snap frost" grapes. These "precious grapes," the distiller says, are "picked late in the season, at the time of the first snap frost, to capture their crisp and complex essence." Well, frozen grapes do have plenty of sugar, as ice-wine makers know, and sugar is what you need to make vodka. Hell, you could probably make vodka from Gummi Bears. The unflavored Ciroc does not taste grape-y the way that Calvados, distilled from apples, tastes apple-y; five distillations wring out most of its native flavor. Still, out of the freezer it's delicious, almost ginlike, slightly sweet and perfumed, with a touch of the back-of-throat harshness I like in vodka: interesting and complex rather than ghostly smooth.

Time Quotes in The Lovely Bones
How we cite our quotes:
Woosh and you can start over again. Or was life more like the horrible game in gym that has you running from one side of an enclosed space to another, picking up and setting down wooden blocks without end? (16: Snapshots.73)
Abigail's vision of what life might be about, sound a lot like Sisyphusian Hades (Sisyphus being the guy who has to keep rolling the boulder up the hill for all eternity). What do you think Abigail's vision of life looks like at the point we leave her in the book?
He saw me standing under the rustic colonial clock and stared. He was drinking champagne. There were strings coming out from all around me, reaching out, waving in the air. (17.103)
Aha! Clocks and time go together like ticks and tocks. Susie even describes herself as resembling a clock, with funny wavy arms, like her funny wavy conception of time.
Let go. Let go. Let go. (18.75)
This is what Jack Salmon hears before he has his heart attack, when Buckley begs him to forget Susie. Where does the voice come from? Is it Susie? Is it something within Jack?

CJ Getz
CJ Getz has been teaching others to drive professionally for two years now, but her non-professional experience goes way back to her own high school days. After the skimpy introduction to driving that her father gave her and the critical behind the wheel instructor she had for three sessions via school, she began her teaching career by taking her own younger brother out, wanting to teach him before anyone else could scare him off of driving. She was hoping to make the experience less trying and painful for him than what she had experienced. Since that time she has become the "go to" person for friends and family who were struggling with teaching their teens to drive. It was her friends and family that finally suggested that she pursue professional training and a career in Driver Education.
CJ believes very much that our program is not just about learning how to drive, but how to drive smart and how to be aware of all the things in the environment around us. CJ believes in the program so much so, that both of her teens have gone through the Teen Driver Education course at RCC.
Before beginning her career in Driver Education, CJ worked in other Education fields: Preschool, Daycare, Elementary School Teacher's Aid and even Home Schooling her own children for a time. Now, besides working with old and young in learning to drive safely, she volunteers with her husband as youth group leaders for one of the local valley churches because she enjoys teenagers and thinks it is a hard to be one in this day and age.

LoanMax, has decided to withdraw its application for a vehicle title loan business in Chester. According to case manager, Ryan Ramsey, county planning staff received a letter on Monday withdrawing the case.
The Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved three of four vehicle title lender businesses in June, which included a TitleMax now located at Breckenridge Shopping Center. Bermuda Supervisor and Board Chairman, Dorothy Jaeckle, deferred or continued the LoanMax application, a free standing (not in a shopping center) lender that offers high-interest loans.
LoanMax, which proposed to locate at Jefferson Davis Highway and Osborne Road, in the former 7-Eleven, had gone through the application process without objection. No one from the public spoke against the local AFIs until last month when Ms. Jaeckle had deferred the case again.
After a number of meetings, word spread through the community in July and an effort to stop LoanMax from locating here, received opposition. Ms. Jaeckle deferred the case 30 additional days, saying she felt that she should give the AFI a chance to work with the leaseholder or make other arrangements, which also allowed the community opposition to grow.
In September many of those in the community attended the BOS and Ms. Jaeckle deferred the case again. She said she would eventually deny the case, but thought she should respect any business applying for rezoning or a conditional use.
The BOS will hear, on Wednesday, Oct. 23, this publication's issue date, the withdrawal request which should be approved.

From an initial crowd of about 3,000, the number of visitors at the festival was around 120,000 this year, filling the cobblestone alleys and courtyards of the city wall to wall.
The biggest of the two wartime ghettos is now a thriving Jewish quarter, a year-round highlight on Budapest's tourist map with the huge Dohany street synagogue – the model for New York's Central Synagogue – at its heart.
Around it are more synagogues, museums, businesses, schools and restaurants, and sometimes a mix of those things, such as a Talmud class that is taught regularly at one of the famous Budapest "ruin pubs" - run-down buildings converted into bars.
Rabbi Zoltan Radnoti, the young leader of a small, modern synagogue in southwestern Budapest, said his generation was the first to be confident of its heritage after their traumatised grandparents taught their children to play it down.
"My parents' generation, the one born immediately after the war, was protected so much they never got to experience their Jewishness," said Radnoti. "They assimilated almost completely."
"Now, my children take their Jewishness naturally, they have no doubts about their roots. They are kids who live in Hungary, speak Hungarian and follow the Jewish faith. The vast majority of young Jewish parents can and do choose this tradition."
Besides religious freedom, the end of Communism in 1989 also brought a freedom of speech and politics that quickly gave birth to openly anti-Semitic political forces.
The Jobbik party, the third biggest in parliament, has used anti-semitic slurs to boost its standing before elections in 2014, drawing international scorn.
The strongest yet greeted last month's call by Marton Gyongyosi, who runs Jobbik's foreign policy cabinet, for Jewish members of government and parliament to be listed in the wake of Israel's recent military campaign to stop rocket fire from Gaza.
