We know the residence plan de corones for several years. They impressed us again and again its comfortable premises and its spacious facilities.

The elevator systems and slopes on the kronplatz were a pleasure for every skier and the small village st vigil exudes romance and comfort. It is very difficult of the combination

We were for the 2. time in the residence plan de corones and for 2014 a option processed. A sign, we probably we feel. The complex boasts cleanliness and peace (although in the neighbouring apartments some smaller children with their parents stayed). The house is solidly built, the host family is extremely friendly.

I've had this rose for a couple of years. It doesn't have a scent. Some of the foliage is tipped red. The color is actually this bright, the picture is not altered at all.
I have forgotten it's name so when someone wants to know in order to buy this for their garden I can't tell them what to get. Thanks! |

President's Message Let's Not Forget Geometry! Is it just me, or does geometry seem to be in the background these days? Slogans like "Algebra for all" and policies designed to ensure that all students complete algebra by the end of eighth grade have caught the national attention in recent years. When states or national organizations develop sample assessment tasks, they usually begin the process with tasks that involve arithmetic operations or algebraic concepts and procedures. Geometry tasks are often lower on their priority list. The new Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) appear to highlight number and operations, algebra, and functions, putting geometry a tad off to the side. Even in some of NCTM's own series, the first books to emerge have often been on algebra or number and operations. Geometry has always been well represented in curriculum, instruction, and assessment, but it seems to come a bit later to the party.

MTMS Call for STEM ArticlesThe Editorial Panel of Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School (MTMS) is still considering manuscripts for the 2013 Focus Issue on Mathematics in a STEM Context. What mathematics has surfaced in your lessons that connects to science, technology, or engineering? Have you emphasized to your students the importance of applying math in other subject areas as well as in daily life? Articles should address the philosophy, research, or practice of effective mathematics teaching as an integrated component of STEM. The deadline for manuscripts is January 9, 2012. More information.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Brazil's OSX Gets Green Light To Start Building Acu Shipyard
RIO DE JANEIRO (Dow Jones)--Brazilian oilfield services company OSX Brasil
S.A. (OSXB3.BR) said Monday that it had received approval to start
construction on a shipyard at the Acu Port complex in Rio de Janeiro
OSX will start work next month to build "the largest shipyard in the
Americas," the company said. OSX, part of billionaire Brazilian
businessman Eike Batista's industrial conglomerate, will partner with
South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. (009540.SE) to build the
shipyard, the company said.
Brazil's ship-building industry is undergoing a renaissance as the company
ramps up production to meet growing demand from the country's oil and
natural gas industry. Several new shipyards are under construction along
Brazil's Atlantic Ocean coast, while many yards that were closed during an
industry downturn in the early 1980s are being revived.
Brazil was among the world's largest ship producing countries in the 1980s
before a global downturn in the industry saw the local docks shuttered.
Last week, OSX said that it had received approval for a credit line worth
up to 2.7 billion Brazilian reais ($1.69billion) from Brazil's Merchant
Marine Fund to finance construction of the shipyard.
OSX plans to build vessels for sister company OGX Petroleo e Gas
Participacoes SA (OGXPY, OGXP3.BR), which will produce crude oil from the
Campos Basin off the coast of Rio de Janeiro state. The 2,400-meter docks
at the shipyard will have the capacity to build up to 11 floating
production, storage and offloading vessels, or FPSOs, at the same time.
The FPSOs use hulls about the size of an oil supertanker.

Brazil to Launch Bidding Process on 20 Billion Dollar High-Speed Rail Project
ROCKVILLE, MD--(Marketwire - Jun 27, 2011) - MarketResearch.com has
announced the addition of the new report "Global Transport Industry
Outlook Survey 2011-2012: Industry Dynamics, Market Trends and
Opportunities, Buyer Spend and Procurement Strategies," to their
collection of Railroads market reports. For more information,
visit http://www.marketresearch.com/product/display.asp?ProductID=6424741
The steps taken by transport industry respondents to contain costs and
re-evaluate strategies to overcome business threats, an increase in
passenger and cargo demand, the expansion of railroad infrastructure and
the channeling of marketing efforts have contributed to the gradual
erosion of economic uncertainty. This has led to the transport industry
being much more optimistic about revenue growth for their company in
comparison to the past 12 months as expressed by 57% of respondents.
Levels of consolidation are expected to increase over the next 12 months
expressed by executives from transport buyer companies (reference Figure
11 below). Potential factors for the increase could be a result of the
need to manage new cost or demand pressures, increase market shares,
develop new products, repay debt or adhere to new compliance procedures.
As global markets begin to recover, infrastructure activity and demand for
services is expected to substantially increase in 2011. This will lead to
larger companies acquiring small, local companies with strong business
models and growth opportunities to integrate their services.
China has been identified as the most important region for growth among
emerging markets. China has strong market potential, sufficient labor
resources, expansion of its railroad infrastructure and sound corporate
governance; therefore it is expected to grow rapidly in 2011. China plans
to extend its rail network from 8,350 km to 13,000 km by the end of 2012.
India, Brazil and the Middle East are also regions which are expected to
show strong growth rates in 2011. India plans to expand its rail network
during 2011-2012 for modernization activity. Brazil will host the 2014
FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games, and they are expected to launch
a bidding process for high speed rail projects with an investment outlay
ofUS$20 billion. Furthermore the Middle East region has investment plans
for the development of road infrastructure.

Spending by Brazilians abroad breaks record
Expenditure by tourists on international trips reached US$ 1.664 billion
in May and US$ 8.331 billion from January to May, both all-time highs.
AgA-ancia Brasil*
BrasAlia a** Spending by Brazilians on international trips reached US$
1.664 billion in May, a record high, according to information
disclosed this Monday (27th) by the Central Bank of Brazil. In the first
five months of the year, spending reached US$ 8.331 billion.
In turn, spending by foreigners visiting Brazil reached US$ 543 million
last month, resulting in a US$ 1.12 billion travel account deficit, the
lowest figure ever for the period.
From January to May, spending by foreigners in Brazil reached US$
2.881 billion, resulting in a deficit of US$ 5.45 billion, also the
highest ever for the period. The Central Bank revised its projection for
the travel account deficit this year upward from US$ 12 billion to US$
15 billion.
Brazilian credit card spending abroad, however, is declining, according to
the head of the Economic Department of the Central Bank, Tulio Maciel. In
April this year, credit card spending by Brazilians on foreign trips
reached US$ 1,179 billion and dropped to US$ 909million in May. The figure
represented 60.7% of total spending on international trips in April. In
May, the rate dropped to 54.7%.
In the comparison between April this year and the same period of last
year, credit card spending grew by 53.8%. In May compared with the same
month of 2010, there was growth of 33.9%. a**Brazilians are still
travelling, but now they are paying more in cash than with credit
cards,a** said Maciel.
The government raised the Tax on Financial Operations (IOF, in the
Portuguese acronym) on purchases using credit cards abroad. The decree,
issued on March 28th in the Official Gazette raised the IOF on
international credit card purchases from 2.38% to 6.38%. According to
Maciel, rate became effective 30 days after the ruling was published, and
the aim was precisely to reduce credit card spending by Brazilians.

Petrobras Discovers Natural Gas Near Auction Areas
By Peter Millard and Laura Price - Jun 27, 2011 3:06 PM GMT-0300
Petroleo Brasileiro SA (PETR4), Brazila**s state-controlled oil company,
discovered natural gas in an onshore field near an area where Brazil plans
to auction exploration licenses later this year.
The gas discovery at the Ilha Pequena block in the Sergipe Basin hasna**t
been declared commercial yet, the National Petroleum Agency said on its
website. Petrobras also found oil at an offshore well in the Campos Basin,
where the company produces more than 85 percent of its oil, the agency
Brazil plans to auction 174 blocks onshore and off the nationa**s
northeastern coast, which have similar potential to the a**huge
reservesa** discovered in the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa, according to
a report last month by Tauil & Chequer Advogados, a Brazilian law firm
that focuses on energy. Brazil and West Africa may hold some of the same
oil deposits developed millions of years ago before the Atlantic Ocean was
created by the separating continents.
a**Much has been said about the geologic similarity between Africaa**s
west coast and Brazil,a** Max Bueno, an analyst at Spinelli SA in Sao
Paulo, said in a telephone interview. a**You should expect greater
participation in the blocks from operators who are in Africa.a**
Tullow Oil and Anadarko Petroleum Corp. (APC) are developing the 250,000

What do you all think of buffalo grass? Good, bad, neutral? Considering it for a bit over an acre of area we don't want to irrigate daily. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Its a pretty good idea - it takes far less water to look good. The draw back is that it may take a year or two to get well-established. For a good discussion, use the search function on this forum and look for "BP Green Lawn" BP Green hasn't been posting recently, but a few years back he took out a blue grass lawn and planted Buffalo and wheat grass - with good success. |
I had researched doing a buffalo/blue grama mix a couple years ago. Then I saw the price for seed and quickly abandoned the idea lol. However, from what I found it would work great. The drawback's being price, establishment and the fact that it generally goes dormant earlier in the fall, and breaks dormancy later in the spring then other grasses. |
There's a seed company up the road from me that sells all kinds of grass seed, including buffalo grass. They don't have web-purchasing, but I'm pretty sure you can call them up and they'll sell it to you. At the link below. High Country Gardens sells full trays of developed plugs. I think one could do this themselves for less money - buy the seed, the trays, and some potting soil, then do your own. http://www.highcountrygardens.com/sustainable-lawns/buffalo-grass |
Here is a link that might be useful: southwest seed
i have buffalo grass in my front yard. yard is southfacing and sloped so it gets baked all summer. it is nice and green in mid-summer heat when most bluegrass lawns look tired. the only thing i dislike is it doesn't green up until early June. so for two months (Apr & May) when everyone's bluegrass lawns are bright green, i have everyone telling me i need to water my lawn, or telling me my lawn is dead. |

Martha's Vineyard comes of age in eyes of reality TV
Grab the television remote and get ready. ABC Family announced in a press release that it has picked up "The Vineyard," described as a dramatic coming-of-age docu-soap, which follows a handful of 20-somethings on Martha's Vineyard for the summer.
"Tight quarters, new friends and new rivals, all living, working and playing together, make this picturesque playground ripe for mischief and romance," ABC said.
"The Vineyard" is created and executive-produced by Dave Broome, producer of the "Biggest Loser," and Brian Smith ("Masterchef") and 25/7 productions. Filming is expected to begin in May for eight one-hour episodes.
Closed auditions for pre-screened locals are scheduled this Thursday and Friday at the Mansion House in Vineyard Haven. On Saturday and Sunday, the casting directors will be in Boston meeting with college kids — both Islanders attending area schools and students who are interested in spending the summer on the Island.
In a telephone conversation with The Times, Mr. Broome stressed that the show would provide a fair portrayal of the Vineyard, its residents, and the community, and that the cast and crew will keep a very low profile.
"A show like this is very different from 'Jaws' being filmed on the Island," Mr. Broome said. "These are small footprints by design. We'll use three cameras. We travel in passenger vans. 99.999 percent of the people won't know where we are."
As for content, Mr. Broome was emphatic. He said it would not be Jersey Shore, a series that followed the lives of eight housemates at the Jersey Shore who excelled in boorish behavior. "The Vineyard is not intended to portray any stereotypes, disrespect the community, or present a negative image of young people and their lifestyle," he said.
This is not Mr. Broome's first effort to capitalize on Vineyard reality. In February 2009 his company advertised for young people between the ages of 19 and 28 who wanted to compete for a chance to star in a primetime television show to be set on Martha's Vineyard.
"New friends are made, others fade away, lust simmers, and sometimes, mistakes are made with no regret. But one thing is for sure, you'll never forget your summer on The Vineyard," read the promotional material. But it was not until last month that the concept found a home with ABC.
No help
The news that reality TV — popularly associated with gators, lumberjacks, pawn shops and Snookie of Jersey Shore fame — had discovered the Island drew gasps from one Island resident.
"This is such a bad idea that I don't even want to think about it," wrote Virginia Jones of West Tisbury in an email to The Times and other recipients. "As to content, what the Hell are they going to include: dysfunctional families, drug use/abuse, and folks living below the median income in substandard conditions, while working three jobs? If anyone has any influence to stop this please let's talk."
In a follow-up conversation, Ms. Jones told The Times, "I don't think Martha's Vineyard needs any more exposure. We already have more people in the summer than we can comfortably accommodate. The problem is we don't have a viable, sustainable year-round economy. More exposure and anything that gives the Island a wow factor and makes it sound glitzy and glamorous and fun isn't going to help any of our problems."
The majority of comments on the show's newly created Facebook page have not been kind. Brandy Starr Ringle wrote, "I wish there was a hate button!"
"There's nothing that can be said to give the sheer idiocy and stupidity of this show idea justice, then again he did make the biggest loser," said Jared Jernagan. "He can be on his own show next season."
But Sean O'Brien had another take "I think this is an opportunity to come together as Islanders and show the rest of the world what it means to be from Martha's Vineyard."
In response to those concerns, Mr. Broome said the show isn't about Martha's Vineyard. "It's a character-driven show about the people who come to Martha's Vineyard," he said. "We're going to embrace the beauty of the Island and the diversity of the population, but it's a character-based show."
Mr. Broome emphasized that the cast and crew will only be on the Island during the early part of the summer. "We'll start shooting in early May. By July 4th, most likely we're out of there," he said.
"We're looking to build relationships on the Vineyard," said Mr. Broome. "Our goal is to have season after season."
Tick, tick
Mr. Broome said the show will look at people at a crucial time in their lives. "There is a real ticking clock that happens there unlike other places around the country," he said. "The population changes. Kids go there to work, to play — but the show is really about these kids that are at a crossroads. Whether they're locals or wash-ashores, they're trying to figure out their lives."
Mr. Broome said the Island provides an interesting dynamic. "For three months out of the year there's this mix of all kinds of people interacting together. That's the story we want to tell," he said.
The unscripted show will center on a handful of young people. Some of the visiting kids will live together in a rented house. Some of the cast members will work together at a local business. "There will be eight core characters with lots of other people involved," Mr. Broome said. "We're looking to capture parents, business owners, and other local people. We're not just looking at the kids."
Mr. Broome said he is familiar with the Island. "We know the Vineyard is not spring break central. We need these characters who are full of depth. This is not about a party on the Island. This is about people at a crossroads of their lives and their connections to other people of all ages. This is a very targeted, specific story we're tying to tell."
By reassurance, he added, "This is ABC Family. This is Disney. People should realize what they can expect."
He said a large number of locals and Island business owners have expressed interest in participating in one way or another. "At least half a dozen hotels have reached out asking us for the business. I think that's an incredible sign," said Mr. Broome. "We're going to help pick things up when the Island needs the business. We're going to be spending a lot of money while we're there. We'll be in the restaurants. We'll be in the shops. We'll be employing a lot of locals."
"I know from experience that when you change anything in a place small and quaint like Martha's Vineyard, you ruffle feathers. The local people take a lot of pride in where they live — and they should. We understand that. I think everyone will be really surprised."
"I'm asking people just to wait. To think a little bit. We're excited. I think they're going to be very pleased,"
I really can't imagine one positive thing that this will bring to the island. I propose that the community boycotts the restaurant that hires these characters.
Good luck with that. I know which one it is. can you say "iconic"?
Must be the Quaterdeck:)
If you know, please share the name of the eatery with the rest of us!
If you really think about it for just a minute it'll come to you. Which Island restaurant is more well known and recognized than any other?
My first guess would be the Black Dog!
Square Rigger
blah. no one cares.
with Papa Tuck is In -
I always called this place Disneyland, I didnt know they would take it seriously.
A better show would be about the loving and careing folks at Camp Jabberwocky. Disney could donate all the proceeds back to the camp
Not scripted? "New friends are made, others fade away, lust simmers, and sometimes, mistakes are made with no regret. But one thing is for sure, you'll never forget your summer on The Vineyard," BS.
I can't wait to see what kind of tourist come here after watching that..
It won't change a bit.
hopefully,they will bring some fresh bread with them,we can't seem to get any in the stores here!!!
just to agree with you about something, I agree.
good bread is hard to find on this island
I didn't mean for the above comment to be responding to you,I'm surprized I wasn't deleted,I promise to not respond to your comments anymore
you can respond to my comments.. it would be a boring world if we all thought the same thing.. I remember a Gary Larson cartoon, where God is making the earth in his kitchen, behind him is a shelf full of "spices" in jars –things like reptiles, trees, fish etc. But he is shaking a jar over the earth that says "jerks" , and he is thinking…"this ought to spice things up a little"
Believe me, I don't really think anyone that comments here is a jerk.. we just all have a different take on life.. I am fine with that, and look forward to a healthy dialogue in the future.. Thank you for taking the time to express your opinions.. I really mean that..
Who the heck do all you "locals" imagine that you are? Get off your thrones, you're not that special.
wow hey papa tuck, does Heff know about this? (that your gonna be in it? and yeh tennisstar all permanent residents of the vineyard are very special, that's why it's an island. for some to come visit for others who actually enjoy not being too close to the madness of walmarts, burger kings, and drive by shootings lol
Im a full time, year round resident, albeit a transpant. So maybe i dont have this fantasy that because im on an island, im somehow above all the non resident riff raff. Open your eyes. There are drug dealers, substance abusers, rapists, child molesters and murderers right here on your magical island. Its no different than any other place. Just prettier in some spots.
No matter how you look at it, the vineyard is still dependent on tourism. Remember the Catskills? Appealing to a new, younger audience is not a bad thing to help promote for the future. Or, if you prefer, we can just decline into oblivion. Sometimes old people have a hard time transitioning as times change.
With Lady Gaga and the Obamas here, is this even a possibility?
You're right, oblivion isn't the problem. Over-exposure and changing character of the island are the biggest concerns. There are good laws to protect the island and hopefully selectmen and law enforcement work together to keep the island a unique place.
If we don't want this here, how can we stop them? Do they need permits? The Vineyard stopped the all-powerful McDonald's 30 years ago, surely we can stop a film crew.
Times have changed, look how we fared on the roundabout. We have 2 things to look forward to in the spring.
This is awful. Such a disappointing thing to be happening to this peaceful place that I have always considered my Eden. The Vineyard is where you go when you want to get away from franchises and industry and media. A reality tv show on the island just seems so incredibly wrong to me. As someone who has been summering on the island all my life, I am extremely saddened to see the Vineyard turned into a freaking television show. I cannot imagine anything good coming from this, nor can my dear friends who are year round residents. MV will always be my sanctuary and it's a shame to see this happening there.
Sanctuary and Eden? You are kidding right. It is physically pretty but you have to get rid of the people in order to enjoy it. There is more per capita pathology here than on the mainland. Look up the statistics.
Where do I find the per capita pathology stat?
This is the 2005 sample. It gets worse but I wont do your research for you.
''Martha's Vineyard's dark little secret is one of desperately high levels of depression, alcoholism, drug abuse, domestic violence and even suicide attempts among a population that struggles to make ends meet in a billionaire's playground when the billionaires have all left. The last time the island's social problems were publicly totted up – in 2005 – the number of cases of patients treated each year in hospital for alcohol or drug abuse had soared from almost 200 in 2002 to just over 750 three years later. The caseload of patients struggling with depression had grown from 40 in 2002 to 92 in 2005. Suicide attempts climbed almost tenfold, from three in 2002 to 29 in 2005.'' This is only some of it and doesn't count domestic violence and theft and break ins and child abuse or sex abuse. Compare some of these to nationwide stats per capita. You can do it.-
Do the work for me? I'm not the one citing "pathology per capita".
Also, comparing any stat pertaining to MV to the rest of the nation is going to give you skewed results. Seems like you read stats and don't really know many people on the island though.
Mr JamesPi3, you seem to reflexively not believe the stats even if they are given to you. That is what you are implying. MV has 16 thousand people here for about 10 months and about 100000 people for two months. Are you saying that MV stats are lower or the same or you don't know. What are you saying. Are you saying you don't want to believe it? Even without stats, one can live here for awhile and understand why people come here to work, judge accountability and performance, look at supply demand, review the hospital cases which are public, look at police arrests, see how many people are addicted and go to AA, read the papers, make observations, find out how many are bi polar and schizophrenic and a whole host of other pathology and you will quickly see MV is dark.
You've yet to give me the pathology per capita on the island versus pathology per capita on the mainland.
The population doesn't go from 116,000 to 16,000 between August and September. For many of the off peak months the Island population is somewhere between these two extremes. Someone who spends so much time here should know that
MV is definitely full of odd people and some of them do and sell drugs and many of them come here because they cannot adapt to normal society. That's what a remote place like this attracts sometimes. But I stil
dont think you get what the community is. It must be a terrible experience to wake up every day and be baffled by the place in which you live, which seems to be how you live your life here. -
Wise up. No one comes here early June and after September and most of the 100k come in July and August and before school or college starts. yes you agree lots of odd people and difficulty adapting. that is all I am saying. You are agreeing with me. As for ''community'' what does that mean? Selling high priced lobster rolls at Grace Church? Or all the wrong people getting hand outs at Red Stocking? I sleep well and wake up well and I simply comment that MV is going the way of the dodo bird.
Okay, you've taken it too far.
The lobster rolls at Grace Church are $15, some of the cheapest lobster rolls on the island. They have very little filler unlike some places and you get chips and a drink included. Lobsters run from $10-$20 per pound, and the Grace Church lobster rolls have more than a pound of meat. One of the best lobster deals in New England. Get it together man.
"the Grace lobster rolls have more than a pound of meat" that's a typo right? I thought churches were about salvation not lobster rolls
You really need to try the lobster rolls. They are, close to god.
The theology of grace church is eat lobster in order to go to heaven.
Subject: [mvtimes] Re: Martha's Vineyard comes of age in eyes of reality TV
I don't want to take sides in a completely irrelevant debate, but Jesus literally weeps when he sees how much lobster meat is in one of those rolls, and how much they're charging. I felt so violated after buying one of these rolls, I scrubbed myself in the shower for more than 3 hours. I joke, I joke, I kid, I kid … Getting back to the primary irrelevant debate: the reality show. Show biz/TV is BS. They're selling air time for their commercials, the more you pay attention, the stronger they get. If they're ignored, they go "on hiatus" … That said I'm totally Tivo-ing this show! Ha ha!
Lobster rolls at Grace church are very reasonable and the money helps support many parish expenses. Also Red S
tocking is for the children, there's nothing wrong with that! -
MA has the second highest level of illegal substance abuse in the USA and Dukes county has the highest in MA. Figure out what makes up Dukes county and also get in touch with the Exec Director and Clinical Advisor of the MV Community Services department. that is just one indicator. We go on to Depression and suicide and Sex abuse a bit later. Oh I forgot , Dukes County is MV and the Elizabeth Islands so it might be that the Elizabeth islands are the bad actors and not MV
Hey, I'm not doubting that there are a bunch of problems here, but the image you paint is just not reality. What is "level of illegal substance abuse"? Are there crack gangs shooting each other like the south side of Chicago?
People seeking help through AA is not an indication of moral decay in my eyes. Is there really a higher rate of violent crime? Are people getting killed in drunk driving accidents?
Listen to me carefully. AA is a good thing because people are seeking help. Illegal substance abuse is a well used category measuring pathology. I said depression, suicide, domestic abuse, drug addiction and alcoholism is at a higher rate than on the mainland. Those are facts. That is all. The image I paint is reality. I never mentioned violent crime. I said it's a dark place and particularly so in ten months. I said this island is not the glittering place that the news makes it out to be because Presidents holiday here. At the street level where normal people live, the island has lots of problems and more per capita than the mainland. I am not comparing to Chicago. I am certainly safer here than in south side of Chicago. However I mention a whole host of issues and you go logical walkabout on me and bring up gang shootings and Chicago. Are you smoking funny cigarettes? People who live here are naturally defensive. They do not want to believe this pathology exists here because it's a reflection of their own choices. You don't want me to define moral decay do you? I am done.
Cite your facts please. I don't dispute that there is more here than meets the eye to the summer tourist or the glowing press coverage. You on the on the other hand believe that west tisbury and chilmark are modern day Sodom and Gomorrah.
Domestic abuse is violent crime.
You say MA has 2nd highest "levels of illegal substance abuse" and MV has the highest in MA, so you make one believe that this is one of the most drug and crime ridden places in America.
I must agree with you that the Island is a difficult place to lead a healthy, well balanced life unless you're filthy rich & don't have to work 3 jobs in order to survive. I did 12 years, year-round, on the "rock" & still refer to it as "The Alcatraz of the East" to those folks who play up the myth of an elite, glamourous playground for beautiful, famous people, only. Yes, all of the troubles that plague the mainland also do harm to year-round Vineyarders. Working class families are broken there due to the problems you mention & also due to the difficulties of securing decent housing; an artificial inflation rate of 50% on EVERYTHING from butter to shoes; entrenched narrow-mindedness of some locals (particularly the townie politicians & their cronies) & the impossibility of getting away- for even a weekend- in summertime. I have all the scars & bad memories I need to prove my point, so I won't bother with statistics. I assert that the Vineyard is not a healthy place for families & that means many Island kids are doomed if they stay there. Most will have to leave at some point, just to get higher educations, but few will be able to afford to come back as permanent residents unless they inherit a family property. Even then, good luck keeping it ! There is a pernicious type of "vulture economy" on the Vineyard that perpetuates a vicious cycle. There's always a boatload of "fresh meat" landing at the ferry wharfs so women, especially, are frequently treated like disposable commodities with short shelf lives. I am certain that the TV show won't dare to touch the REAL realities of Island life with a ten foot pole.
Now there is a sensible and hard working Vineyarder. Best to you.
there's alot more than 16,000 here for 10 months,where do you get this stat?
The population of the island I'd approx 16000. In the summer it swells to 100000.
Subject: [mvtimes] Re: Martha's Vineyard comes of age in eyes of reality TV -
Well 12 years of recession does that. Last time I was happy was the year 2000. Need to get the country back on track and so far no one wants to do it.
come on!!! the last time you were happy was when you learned we were finally getting thr roundabout.
Yep it is now seven years later & It has gotten worse & worse!
Source, please?
A British newspaper, The Telegraph.
Ms Powers are you asking for the source because you don't believe the statistics or are you living in a dream world of non observation?
No one lives on The Island during the winter anyway, they ship us all in a month prior to the season to set up cottage city and have police on segways chase drunken brawlers over roof tops and across the camp ground all for the entertainment of New Yorkers and such who like a 'quaint' and safe touch to their Holiday violence.
AHHH! i now know what the new tandem axle 60+ passenger sightseeing buses are doing
parked and ready for the day tripping masses to arrive,this is how it all began,back in the 60s-
So what exactly is going to change if this is what happened 50 years ago?
this charade can not be boycotted? anyone in the film should be shunned.
either you are being sarcastic, or you are Amish. I can't tell.
This is the story of 20 strangers, picked to cram into a hovel, feed voracious ticks, share STDs, compete for towel real estate on South Beach and find out what life is like . . . in THE REAL WORLD, MARTHA'S VINEYARD!!!
(With apologies to MTV.)
hahah true
Seems like a harmless thing. I'll give it a watch.
This is not going to be helpful at all. Just trashy and really shows that the shows producers don't "get" the Vineyard at all. If it really is the Black Dog, I'm happy to boycott. Really,can islanders try not to cooperate with this junk?
In the end it'll be the smart folks who take advantage of this opportunity, just like with Jaws. The rest can enjoy themselves complaining. I'm ready to work, where do I sign up?
I didn't see anyone standing in Vineyard Haven in protest ? Maybe they all went to Boston ? This TV show Pilot will happen, any reaction is a good reaction for a reality tv show. I am most certain that they will pick outgoing people that will get the most viewers. Anyone here have stock in Disney ?
Alot of negative comments. anything that brings tourist dollars to a struggling island community should be embraced..
Has anyone seen this shows that ABC Family puts out? It's disgusting!!! "Pretty Little Liars," "The Lying Game," "The Secret Life of the American Teenager;" and so on. When you think of ABC Family and Disney you typically think of "Boy Meets World," and acceptable shows they had out in the '90s. The crap they are putting out now is a handbook to young boys and girls to act beyond their age by making out in closets and skipping school and getting pregnant. Sure, these things happen in real life, but kids don't need any more influence than their own imagination. The producer may say this show won't be like "The Jersey Shore," but I highly doubt it.
Ha, they never did any of that on Boy Meets World…..Lol.

Weekly DVD Drinking Game: The Thing (1982)
Drinking Games By Kevin Carr on October 11, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWe're in the middle of October, the month of Halloween, and the scariest new DVD release this week is The Zookeeper. But no one's seriously planning on renting that film, are they? That leaves possible drinking games for Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer (and honestly, what third grader is going to try that?) or The Tree of Life, and a drinking game for that would get me into more trouble than my review did. So considering it's the month for scares, and the remake/prequel/reboot/reimagining of The Thing comes out at the end of this week, plenty of folks are revisiting John Carpenter's 1982 classic. So pour your Jim Beam into your Chess Wizard computer and crack open a Coors. It's time to go drunk retro with this film, available on DVD, Blu-ray and Netflix Instant.

Valsa George (10/14/2014 6:42:00 AM) This is one of the most beautiful and meaningful poems, I have read! Simple in form, but so profound in content! If anger is watered and nurtured, it will shoot into a poison tree bearing lethal fruits! Who all eat them meet with their doom! Anger destroys both the owner and the reciever! (Report) Reply
Gangadharan Nair Pulingat (10/14/2014 4:24:00 AM) A great poem from the great poetic mind. The first para tells us the fact while he was wrath with the friend and when it is discussed it ended there. when such a wrath to the foe not ended and until his friend's death. A great image about the wrath and vengeance here poet describes and in fact the world is seeing those things and we experiences in real life. (Report) Reply

Chris Howie (10/14/2014 2:53:00 AM) This is a fantastic poem! While it has a rather simple rhyme scheme, it is effective in delivering its message. It's short but sweet, let's say. And it is worthy of multiple interpretations. While I'm inclined to think it's a symbolic apple, and perhaps even a symbolic tree, it's certainly fair to think it's all literal. Really, it is just an impressive poem on that nature of anger and holding a grudge, and it is personified beautifully in this poem. (Report) Reply
Sagnik Chakraborty (10/7/2014 5:56:00 AM) Like most of Blake's works, this short poem is multi-layered and is open to several interpretations. With a friend you can speak out your anger and sort out the issue. With someone you don't like, it isn't that easy. You might well nurture the feeling of vengeance in your heart, of which the 'poison tree' is a metaphor out here. The enemy would be deceived by your 'smiles' and 'deceitful wiles', believing you to still to be innocuous and gullible. Therefore, if and when he tries to take advantage of you once again, he would find that your long-held grudge has kept you prepared and he would be defeated at his own game this time.
This defeat of your enemy is symbolized through his 'death', and it is caused by your long-held grudge, i.e. the 'poison tree' that kept you wary of him. (Report) Reply -

Sara Khan (9/3/2014 5:21:00 AM) Awesome poem! ! one of my favorites, got great description and wonderful rhymehe's definatly on one of my fa poet list actually my first (Report) Reply
Jacob Muthoka (8/29/2014 4:50:00 AM) I thought I understood this poem at first, but it reads multi-barreled. That he was angry with a friend made it easy to control and instruct his wrath. When a foe did the same, he held on to his wrath; morning after morning waiting for a day to revenge. He watered the asking for revenge over time until at last he was willing to see his foe die. The foe kept on their living. When Blake woke up to learn of the death of a foe, he must have been a happy man. Imagine, the only one smiling in the funeral. It's metaphoric as someone said.

Soilless potting mix works best in container garden
Q: I am new to container gardening and would like a suggestion on what soil mix to use in my containers to grow flowers. Any other advice on containers also would be appreciated.
— Marsha Jackson, Highwood
A: It is best to use a commercial lightweight soilless growing medium that is designed for container gardening in your pots and not garden soil.
No matter how good your garden soil is, when you put it in a container, aeration and drainage will be severely impeded.
Commercial growing mixes for containers are formulated to make sure water can flow away and sufficient air spaces are around the plants' roots.
These products are called "soilless" mixes because they contain none of the mineral particles that makes up most of your garden's soil.
They are largely made of organic matter, usually with small pieces of a lightweight mineral material such as perlite to improve drainage and reduce weight.
There is no need to put a layer of gravel at the bottom of your containers for drainage.
It is important, though, that your container have a drainage hole or holes in the bottom for excess water to run out.
A piece of screen or a broken piece of pottery can be placed over the hole to prevent the medium from washing out.
Choose a container that is the right size to be in scale with the surrounding landscape. If you have an apartment balcony, use a smaller pot than you would if you had a large patio.
Bear in mind that smaller containers will need more frequent watering.
Terra cotta containers, the classic red clay flowerpots, should be stored indoors in winter, because they will absorb water and crack if left outside. Fiberglass, stone, lead and concrete containers can typically be left outside for the winter.
If your containers are large, consider saving potting mix by filling some of the open space in the bottom with old plastic pots or a bag full of shipping peanuts.
The bag will keep the flyaway shipping peanuts under control, making cleanup easier when you dump the pot out in the fall.
You will need at least a foot or so of growing medium above the filler. The bigger the plants, the more growing medium you will need in the pot.
It will be easier to water your containers if you leave some space below the rim of the pot where the mix can pool and soak in.
Apply a slow-release fertilizer when you plant the containers. These fertilizers will gradually release nitrogen for the plant to use over time.
But because containers must be watered so frequently, nutrients quickly leach away, so supplement the slow-release fertilizer with a liquid fertilizer a couple of times during summer if needed.
Be sure to follow the directions on the label.
It is important to avoid overfertilizing plants. Too much nitrogen can result in oversize plants with few flowers.

The "Cosmogonic" Form of Genesis 1
In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
We as Christians cannot claim that the world belongs to God and at the same time distrust the systematic study of it.
We need safe places in which to raise the complex issues of submitting wholeheartedly to the authority of God's Word in the Scriptures while wrestling with the important findings and perspectives in the natural sciences.
Because reliance upon experts cannot be eliminated, the central question for Christians today is not "should I believe scientific experts?" but "which scientific experts should I believe?"
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
Many of this week's science links happen at the wondrous intersection of mystery and discovery.
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
From 2012: The dictionaries I checked don't define the term, "theistic evolution," so I offer my own definition: the belief that God used the process of evolution to create living things, including humans.
Science is an honest and noble pursuit, evidence of human intellect and curiosity, and to turn away from these is to deny a very important part of who God created us to be in the first place.
From the archives: With From the Dust, it was our goal to help Christians see the complexity of the issues raised by modern science, as well as help them to courageously engage with the theological conversations happening within the sphere of Christian culture today.
When a Christian explores divine action in nature, that person also moves into the realm of revealed purpose and meaning of existence—each of which emanate from within the triune God who is love.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
Read about the death of Wolfhart Pannenberg, still debating creation and evolution, and a really big dinosaur discovery.
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
But what I heard on Sundays did not seem to fit with what I experienced of the world the rest of the week. Growing up in New Mexico in the cottonwood bosque of the Rio Grande valley provided everything for a kid to become a biologist. I roamed along the river, cooked over cottonwood fires, ate wild asparagus, watched clouds form thunderheads over the distant peaks of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.

Weekly Summer Series
Next week I'll be kicking off the weekly summer blog series! I've got some hot topics that I'll talk about every week, such as "What's Local" "What's blooming" "What's New" and "Pet of the Week". There is always something local on our menu in Morgan's, there is always something pretty blooming in our gardens, there is always a happy pet staying with us, and there is always something NEW happening at Interlaken. These 4 topics will keep me blogging practically daily right through the end of summer. Oh and I should probably slip in something about weekly weddings too! Anyway, first up, and one of my favorite topics: "What's local"!
"As Always"
I received these three Guest Feedback emails in a row this afternoon and just had to share.
"As always", it's a pleasure to stay there.
"As always", our stay was very pleasant and we thank you. The restaurant staff was particularly helpful and courteous. Looking forward to visiting with you again this summer, Labor Day weekend.
"As always" the accommodations were excellent. The staff was courteous and welcoming. The room was clean. A pleasant stay all in all.
John, Jeff and Bill - "as always" - THANK YOU! We so appreciate that you continue to choose to stay at Interlaken.
Superfood: Kale
Eat your leafy greens.
You read and hear that everywhere. Yes, we all know it is important to get our daily doses of the green stuff, but maybe you just don't like it. It tastes bland, like lawn clippings or weeds (not that you've tasted either of those...) It just doesn't taste good at all to you. I completely understand that, but I think I've got a way for you to get a top-rated green into your diet in an extremely pleasant way. It requires you to visit Morgan's rsetaurant just once to try it, and chances are you will never look at this top-rated green the same way again.
Local Honeycrisp Apple and Heirloom Kale Salad, Pecorino Vinaigrette, Black Olive Crunch
We don't disguise the true flavor of Kale, we enhance it. Kale is very high in beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C and rich in calcium, so it's definitely a real good green to get into your diet as much as possible. This simple salad is my always chosen starter when I dine in Morgan's, and sometimes it is all I have. It's delicious and I encourage you to try it and tell me what you think!
Wedding Garden Greenery
I love it when the sides to the pavilion are removed and put in storage for the season. That simple change alters the look immensely as immediately the setting for the wedding reception is hugged by pretty flowers, greenery and wonderful fresh air. It takes you outside yet keeps you protected. Now is the time to make an appointment with Brandon Scimeca to come and see if this space is perfect for your wedding reception!
Mother Nature has decided to keep us moist these past couple of days to ensure we have lush greenery for all of our upcoming weddings this season. Thank you Mother Nature! OK I might be stretching this a bit but we have to always look on the bright side… but speaking of H20, how about using some in a hot cup of Harney Tea? Or receiving an Interlaken bottled water as part of your corporate retreat boxed lunch? A tall glass of water as you anxiously await the arrival of the most amazing cottage dill rolls in Morgan's? How about surrounding yourselves in water as you take a canoe ride around the lake? Now we are talking water! Anything lakeside has got to make you smile, and even on dreary days try your best to enjoy it. Let us prepare you a picnic basket for a lakeside lunch – admiring the view from your car of course. Or be adventurous and grab an umbrella as well as your sweetie's hand and take a stroll to the lake. If being out in the rain isn't your cup of tea (back to tea again!) then stay inside your Guestroom and order room service. Or challenge a family member to a game of pool. Enjoy a spa service. Check out our complimentary movie library and cozy up to one you haven't see in ages. Shopping at the local villages can be done in any weather! Ask our front desk service staff for more rainy day activities so we can keep your stay with us happy and bright!

Letitia Webster
Senior Director, Corporate Sustainability, VF Corporation
As leader of VF Corporation's Sustainability program, Letitia Webster is responsible for creating value and reducing risk for the company as it pertains to its environmental and social impact, and leveraging sustainability to create brand equity and a competitive advantage for VF.
A passionate outdoor enthusiast and advocate for the environment, Webster joined VF in 2000 to translate her outdoor experience into business at The North Face. There, she led the strategic marketing group, which consisted of the sports marketing division, corporate communications, community relations and outdoor participation program. Webster launched The North Face sustainability program in 2006, leading the adoption of bluesign, membership with Business for Innovation, Climate and Energy Policy (BICEP) and the Outdoor Industry Association Eco-Index.
In 2011, Webster transferred to the VF headquarters to develop and lead the corporate sustainability program. By engaging and collaborating with stakeholders and industry experts, she has created the foundational infrastructure to launch programs that reduce VF's environmental footprint on a corporatewide basis. Webster is driving a number of initiatives including launching VF's 2014 sustainability report in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines, creating an internal sustainability scorecard to track progress and reporting to Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) on VF's energy and carbon footprint and actions to reduce climate change impacts.
