Take a walk with me love.
You say you can't get enough.
Well you won't, till I can open the door
and give you more of me.
And the silence in my steps,
as I tiptoe around the rest,
Makes me wish you would pull me in
and kiss me again, my friend.
You and your silly games.
And you're not tired.
You could chase me around and debate
here and again.
No lies between us.
Although I am afraid,
I can see that you're the rain.
The rain is gentle some days.
It can clean off the mess that winter made.
The rain can clean away all the years of doubt,
and the tears that were shed.
So look up please.
Shine a little bit of hope to me now.
Let me know that there's a season for all.
And a season to call you my love.
This rain will wash me clean.
I know.
And when it does, I'll be right beside you.
Holding on. Holding on.
This rain will wash us clean.
I know.
And when it does, I'll be right beside you.
Holding on. Holding on.

That was beautiful. The idea of the rain washing you clean and being there with someone after the storm. That's love.

Are you a man who wants to better the health of your skin, but are afraid to ask for help because it doesn't seem "manly"? Then this article was written to help you. We have included a few simple skin care solutions that you can begin right away. You should remember that men have to use good care for their skin as often as women do, before we get started. It may be challenging to contemplate which products work most effectively, since most of them are promoted directly to females. Here are some tips that you can use to help you develop your skin care routine today. Learn the way to Increase Sperm Volume utilizing natural dietary supplements
A number of the big skin care item makers really do manufacture skin care products just for men, whether you know this or not. Such products are designed for faces accustomed to harsher weather conditions and those that have to be shaved. To begin taking care of your skin you should look for such products. Many product manufacturers and marketers create "skin care kits" for men who need help developing a skin care routine. Try out one of those kits.
Have you learned how to shave properly? Lotions and creams for shaving are not mere suggestions. First, you should rinse your face in hot water, then apply the shaving cream or lotion to the area - and don't skimp on the cream! The cream plumps the hairs, so it is best to let it sit for a minute or two before starting to shave. Shave the hair and cream from your face, after allowing a few minutes to pass. Make sure your blade is not dull, or else you run the risk of cutting or scraping your skin. With a sharp razor, you get a closer shave and the difference in comfort will be noticable after you shave.
You should not stay away from sunscreen. Melanoma is not at all rugged and manly. You should accept the concept of having to safeguard your skin as much as the women do, so go buy a sunscreen that you are happy with. Have it in your mind that you do not have to utilize the identical sunscreen for your face that you would put on your arms, other areas of your body, and legs. Your face needs a lesser lotion, otherwise you will be preparing for a significant acne breakout. You will find that the majority of moisturizers have elements of sunscreen already added. Make sure your face is protected from the vicious sun; get a sunscreen product for your face. Numerous such varied suggestions and methods will assist you in creating your skin care for men regimen. Honestly, your routine will likely be the same as your female partner's evening skin care routine, but that's okay since everyone needs to care for their skin. Effecting quality skin care does not make you at all girly. Keeping your whole body healthy includes taking proper care of your skin.

SEO & Search Engine News: Yahoo fires while Skype hires
Welcome to the latest blog from Skyline Marketing – SEO Exeter & SEO Bristol.
Yahoo today has announced that it will be axing 2,000 jobs, which is nearly 15 percent of the total workforce.
This is the sixth time in around four years that the Search Engine, Yahoo has had to make large cutbacks to its staffing level.
There was however some bright news in the industry, as Skype owner, Microsoft has announced 400 new jobs for London and Stockholm and other regions across the World.
The search engine, who has been having a rough time of late, has said it is reducing its costs, to allow it to run a more manageable and profitable company. The job cull was expected to save around £235m a year.
This all adds to Yahoo's "woes" after Carol Bartz was dismissed last September as chief executive and chairman and co-founder Jerry Yang also resigned from the board. Furthermore, the percentage of search queries that are being made through Yahoo is continuously dropping, the latest figures from February showing the first drop below 14 percent, leaving it miles behind Google and Bing.
Yahoo results out – SEO Companies in Bristol or Exeter jumping ship?
Welcome to the lastest blog posting from Skyline Marketing, SEO Bristol and Exeter specialists.
Yahoo have not had much of a fun 2011 with their senior management coming and going and an ever shrinking place at the table of Search Engines. There are now rumours that Yahoo could be in for a takeover as the CEO of Alibaba says he has the cash to do it.
The third quarter results have now been released and the results are not bad in some respects. The search engine had revenue of over £700,000 for the quarter, which was 1% growth over last year, and earnings per share rose 32%. The operating income of the search engine was £115 million, which exceeded analysts expectations.
So are SEO companies in Exeter, Bristol or anywhere else across the world recommending we ditch Google and go running back to Yahoo? No. There is a problem still – Yahoo continues to see itself as a media company and in that respect the figures were very poor. Advert revenue was flat at just under £300 million – the net earnings were down 26%.
Search revenue saw a 13% drop from the previous quarter. This figure while poor is actually hiding the fact that Microsoft paid Yahoo for its entire search operating cost and transition cost, as part of the Bing/Yahoo agreement.
For now Yahoo are still looking for a new CEO and the question still remains as to why the previous CEO Carol Bartz was fired, considering overall the company was exceeding performance expectations.
Search Engine CEO fired
Welcome to the latest blog posting from Skyline Marketing, SEO Company in Exeter, Devon.
It was announced today that Search Engine Yahoo has fired its chief executive Carol Bartz after not even three years in the top job.
The full press release can be read here and it concludes that Ms Bartz has been removed from the board of directors with immediate effect, to be replaced by the chief financial officer of the search engine, Tim Morse.
The logic behind the firing from the original search engine, is that Yahoo has not really made an
Yahoo! shares fall on Alibaba fallout continues
A very warm welcome to Skyline Marketing, Internet Marketing and SEO Company in Exeter, Devon. Shares in Search Engine provider Yahoo! have fallen for a third day in a row after the argument between the Search Engine and its Chinese partner Alibaba deepened.
This all stems from Alibaba transferring it's major internet asset – Alipay to chief executive and Founder of Alibaba, Jack Ma. The Search Engines share price finished 3.6% down.
The shares fell due to the news that Alipay is now out of the grasp of Yahoo! A bitter standoff appears to be growing now between the two parties, as Yahoo! says that the transfer went ahead in August 2010, but were only told in March 2011. Contrary, Alibaba says this transaction in question was discussed in a board meeting back in 2009.
During Friday, Alibaba made a statement saying that Yahoo! would have been fully aware of this deal, as they have a seat on the board.
Up until now, Yahoo! had had control over Alipay as it has a 43% private stake in Alibaba (having invested £600m in 2005), however there are now growing fears that Jack Ma may cause further trouble for the Search Engine by spinning off Taobao – China's largest online shopping site, which again would put a valuable asset out of Yahoo!'s reach.
Google in Fresh Anti-trust Probe
Good Evening from the SEO Company in Devon!
Google appears to be in hot water again after specialist French Search Engine 1plusV has filed fresh anti-trust claims against the Search Engine.
Google could be facing a massive fine if it is found guilty of abusing its position in the Search Engine Market.
More information courtesy of the BBC online: Google faces new complaint in anti-trust probe.
This could be good news for Yahoo and Bing, but I dont think google will be too worried.

2012Sugar & Calories in Beer, Stout & Cider
Shown below is the calorie and sugar content in popular beers, stout and ciders. If like me, you like to drink alcohol you'll be interested to see the results I found. This week I've detailed beer, stout and cider, next week I'll be detailing wine, spirits and their mixers and liqueurs. So remember to follow me on Facebook if you'd like to find out about these next week and leave a comment below if you've a favourite drink you'd like me to look into.
All beers and ciders were unfortunately high in calories and some were also high in carbs (sugar) too. I would like to point out that it was incredibly difficult to find out precise information, as most drinks companies do not list their ingredients, alcohol content, calories or any other nutritional values on their products or website. If they do it is buried in a well hidden page on their website. The worst being Heineken, Guinness and Bulmers, who seem to list nothing at all. I was very careful to use several sources for information but cannot guarantee there will be slight errors in the information. It's worrying to think that governments place little or no importance on the labeling of alcohol, its ingredients or nutritional values but even a bottle of water does have to.
I'm not here to talk about the rights and wrongs or damage alcohol causes, you're an adult and that's for you to choose. I'm just hoping to help people know what they're drinking and to make better choices about what they drink and in what quantity.
Like most things in moderation and in the right portion size they are for most people ok to drink. However, for someone wishing to lose weight it would dramatically decrease your chances of losing weight if you choose to drink any beer, stout or cider. For example on a night out if you drink 6 bottles of Heineken that's 834 calories and 66g of sugar (about 13 sachets of sugar). 6 pints of Budweiser would be 1398kcals and 102g of sugar. A big drinker might have 10 pints or more on a night out. 10 pints of Bulmers is 2100kcals and 230g of sugar. Workout what you'd have on a night out, then how much per week?
Its good to know that there are lower (not low) calorie and lower sugar alternatives available with Coors Light, Bud Light and Bulmers Light now being widely available in most pubs and off licenses. They do make a small difference, 6 bottles of Heineken would be 834kcals and 66g of sugar but 6 bottles of Coors Light would be 564kcals and 24g of sugar. Better but still high and they most likely contain artificial sweeteners. Eight pints of Bulmers original would be 1680kcals and 184g of sugar, but 8 pints of Bulmers light would be 1280 and 32g of sugar. Again they are better but still high and even drinking 8 pints you still only save 400 kcals.
In conclusion it seems beer, cider and stouts are high calorie drinks and should be treated as occasional treats. Eight pints of Heineken has almost the same number of calories as 8 Mars bars or 9x 500ml bottles of Coke. I'll be doing wines, spirits and liqueurs over the next week and expect them to be even more interesting. I'd like to thank the sterling work done by my flatmate Alan, in pouring and tasting all the beers and ciders. Tough work but someone had to do it.

There needs to be an option for honoring people who make a lot of puns.
Player Experience Manager
How the Honor will really work : Graves got a Quadra! Better honor him! Corki managed to escape this team fight and kill their Ashe in the jungle, so they couldn't push! Better honor him! Ezreal went 18/1/9! Better honor him! Come on, we all know it's gonna work that way. I honestly don't see the majority of the playerbase even using this system. I think at least half the players will not even know wth Honor is. I'm willing to bet more than half of those who will are just going to misuse it. Not to say I won't Honor nice people. I just really don't believe this will work out the way you guys think it will. Players are more interested in winning than anything else and the more visibly someone is contributing to your win, the more likely you are to like them (everybody forgets the Alistar initiation, but nobody forgets the Pentakill. Nobody notices how Janna is keeping her carry alive, but everybody notices how many crits the carry is dishing out.)
Crusty Tha Clown
Lyte, Will there ever be any chance of a feature of the honor system to group like minded/honored summoners together when forming a game. Where honorable people will eventually only play with other honorable people, and trolls will just be trolling each other in a troll circle jerk.
Res NØva
I fully intend to exploit the honor system as much as possible by being friendly, helpful, working with my team, and being honorable to my opponents every game. And there's not a darn thing your abuse system can do to catch me.

The side edges took 3 attempts for this rookie (not a pattern problem, a learning leap) and I am very happy with the results. There isn't a mathmatical pattern to " pick up and knit 194 sts" but I placed markers and finally got the count on both sides. I would give this pattern a hgih rating if I could find out where to do that, lol!
I'm just beginning the Side Edges and need more info regarding when to skip picking up a stitch in order to knit 194 sts evenly. I will post once I am successful with it.

Errors of judgment....Submitted by Commonsensenotc... on Wed, 09/16/2009 - 3:47pm.
...and you're comfortable having a man who commits error after error after error of judgment represent you in the State Senate?
My criticism has nothing to do with politics, envy, or spite. It has to do with a supposed leader who has placed himself in a bizarre situation wherein he is giving large sums of money to young men (some minors) for reasons that he doesn't care to share with his constituents. Typical long-term politician arrogance: "How dare you peasants question what I'm doing."
Don't blame WWAY if this has turned into a "sordid" event. Blame Senator Soles and his secret life. This situation stinks to high heaven, and I, for one, am glad that WWAY is trying to force the light of day into what's going on.

Very good
Spring Hill Suites staff member was amazing - prompt, courteous, professional, calm - on way in. On way out, staff member was good, too, but not as calm and professional. It was overall a very good experience and I would go there again no doubt.
Clean, prompt, safe!! Best experience yet!!
I found this lot at the last minute when I was desperate for a parking spot of spring break. Love that it is in a hotel. You pull into a covered area, they take your bags out of the car for you and transfer them right to their shuttle. The shuttle drivers in each direction were so friendly and nice. Service was exceptional! I will always park here when I fly out of LaGuardia!
I was a bit uncertain on choosing this location because of some reviews, but you never know until you try it. One word to describe this service AWESOME! GPS the location got there porter helped with bags opened our doors explained the process for pick up when we land and even valet our vehicle. FREE shuttle ride to and from airport (just call hotel when ready) although we did wait about 20 mins we got a call from the driver instructing us to wait inside that he will call once outside of terminal. seemed very busy but you know what, with service like this i can understand why. very friendly kind and generous staff. hotel is new and looks very nice. will recommend and use service again.
Very nice will use this lot again. Highly recommend!
The shuttle wait time was around 45 mins for pickup. Please make sure the shuttle reaches the airport with 15 mins or else let the person know so he/she can take a taxi to the place
All went wonderfully. The attendants were friendly,helpful,very professional. Definitely will return to this parking/hotel. Marriott Spring Hill is very fortunate to have such a wonderful staff on hand.
Wait time for return shuttle was more than an hour. This was due to limited shuttles and overbooked drop off and pick up trips.
Great experience - thanks very much.
When I dropped off the car I received instructions to call upon return. Turned out the instructions were ONLY to have the car brought out of the lot, but not for the shuttle. Not only does that makes no sense, I wasn't told I needed to make a separate call for the shuttle. I waited for over an hour! beyond ridiculous.
Will highly recomnend to others.
Departing, the GPS could not find the hotel. I called and got directions. Because of the one way streets, I almost missed the shuttle. Made it and had a pleasant ride to the airport. However, my return was a fiasco: The automated system did not recognize my ticket #, so I had to call back and get a live person. They took the information but then said I would have to wait until I got the hotel for them to get the car because of privacy issues. The driver of the shuttle back seems preoccupied with his cell phone. He was not where I was told to wait for him. He didn't even get out of the van to open the door or help me in with my bags. He ignored me when we got to the hotel. Someone came and got my ticket and told me to wait. When they brought the car back they got out didn't say anything or help me with the bags. They started an argument with one of the other employees and walked off. Needless to say no one got a tip and I will not be back!
Flying out was great, prompt service and a quick trip to the airport. Getting back was awful. After a 3 hour flight getting in at 1030, I had a 2.5 hour drive to do to get home. I called the hotel at 1035 for pickup as I had no bags. The van didn't pick me up until 1140!!! I called every 20 minutes and was told it would be any minute now. Waiting outside for 45 minutes was unacceptable and ruined the experience for me. At least have the courtesy to be honest with the timing so I could make a decision to wait inside or take a taxi. Very disappointed.
Great experience, courteous people, prompt pickup and drop off
We called the hotel to request pick-up and the dispatcher told us to wait at the Green Bus stop #10. We waited 25 minutes, called back and then he told us we were at the wrong place and had to go across to the outer lane (which is where we were originally). It was a delayed flight and this mistake added anotherr hour to our trip. Not good!
overall a great service! shuttles from the hotel arrived every thirty minutes and they came and picked us up from the airport a soon as I called.

I can't help but re-reading your guides. So much fun. Often I just want to print then and hit some writers in the face (which I might actually do~) with their super-handsome magic-weilding swordsmen who f#ck every girl on their way, own a kingdom, have their own pet dragon, are practically immortal, travel in space and win all the wars (real thing, btw, from a 100000 print edition!).
I was wondering, though, just out of curiosity (because nothing will make me change how the story goes, and I don't really care about my chars being Mary-Sues, I know they're not f not on purpose), since you write as well, how Mary-Sueish would you take the 'The character is an orphan. (Extra points: The character witnessed his/her parents' deaths, and perhaps even blames him/herself.)' if my main char had lost mom and dad, but since she's 42, they died of age?

Blake Griffin Workout
Blake Griffin's workout and training routine is done almost exclusively outside to adjust to unstable weights or surfaces. Along with his brothers, the 6'10, 250 lb. Griffin works out with renowned San Francisco-based trainer Frank Matrisciano, known as the "mysterious trainer" to many.
Griffin's trainer has a mysterious nature to him.
Matrisciano is not your typical trainer. In fact, he wears a mask to hide his face from the general public because he doesn't like the spotlight. He doesn't advertise his services. Instead, mostly all his clients are through word of mouth referrals. His clients include military personnel, martial arts aficionados, members of California's upscale crowd and professional athletes. Matrisciano particularly garners the attention of basketball players, his strongest niche of athletes that he puts through a workout and training routine. What makes Matrisciano even more unique is that he doesn't believe in relying heavily on conventional weight training. Rather, he focuses on using nature's surroundings to get the best of a workout; and he has the body to show off for it.
Griffin has a shredded body. He does a lot of running on sand,
which translates into more calories being burnt and a leaner body.
When the two train together, Matrisciano would make Griffin mainly train on sand for his workout. He would say, "If you can run up a 60 degree incline in sand with a 60 pound weight vest then running 94 feet down the court on a flat surface should be easy."
Training on sand provides many benefits for Griffin. He develops more strength in his lower body running on sand. Since the sand shifts beneath him as he runs, Griffin's ankles, arches, and calves are much more engaged and will become stronger in the process. This can explain why Griffin has a powerful 37-inch vertical jump. In addition, sand training improves balance because the uneven sand surface activates nearly all the muscles in the body, which will result in more strength and fluidity of motion. Also, running on sand puts less impact on the joints and muscles as the feet hit the sand. Also, studies show that people who run or walk on sand burned between 1.2 and 1.8 times more calories per mile on each run, which can explain why Griffin has such a lean and muscular physique.
If you are an athlete and want to improve in your sport, you must follow a precise strength training, conditioning, and nutrition program. MP45 is a step-by-step athlete workout program that walks you through exactly what to do to excel as an athlete. This is the type of training and nutrition followed by many of the world's top professional athletes.

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to let forum users know about a bill that passed the Oklahoma Senate today. It is my understanding that there are currently no laws in OK regarding ecigs (at least as far as where we can vape - correct me if I'm wrong tho).
The bill restricts anyone who is under 18 from purchasing an ecig or juice. It also imposes a .05 cent tax on ecig products. There is a cap on the tax of 10% of what is imposed on a pack of cigarettes.
Shops in Tulsa and surrounding areas do not allow anyone under 18 to enter their stores, much less buy anything (at least the ones I've been to). My main concern with the bill is the tax portion of it. I feel like I'm being punished for giving up my bad habit.
If there are other Okies on the board, please email or call Governor Fallin and express your opinion!
Thanks much

They represent the later Buddhist notions that the good life was indeed attainable in this world. It consisted of self-mastery, a happy demeanor, purposeful endeavor, a deep commitment to the welfare of others and enlightened awareness.
Scholars believe that the Laughing Buddha is in fact modeled on an historical figure, a fat wandering Zen monk named Pu-tai. All sources describe him as obese, with wrinkled forehead, and a white protruding belly which he left uncovered. There was another feature of his bodily appearance that captured attention.
Wherever he went, he wore a pu-tai (Japanese Hotei) or cloth-bag. Thus he came to be known as Pu-tai Hoshang or hemp-bag monk. Legend has it that in this bag he carried candy for the children. Over the centuries within China, Buddhist notions of happiness based on self-mastery and enlightened insight were fused with popular Chinese life-ideals of happiness through material prosperity, thus today the hemp sack may be interpreted as filled with gold, filled with happiness, health, and other aspects of abundance.
Happy Hotei's come in many forms.
Laughing Buddha of Love - sitting in love and compassion
Laughing Buddha of Prosperity - holding a Ru-Yi Pot or Bowl of Plenty up to the universe for receiving abundance
Laughing Buddha of Safe Travel - on a journey with a hemp sack full of protection
Laughing Buddha of Happy Home - sitting on a large gold nugget representing solid foundation, with a smaller nugget in his hand to give to others
Spiritual Journey Buddha - dressed for the journey in fine robes, with a fan for understanding and a sack to collect insights
Laughning Buddha of Long Life - sitting with his fan hat and enjoying the good life!
Many believe that rubbing the Laughing Buddha's belly brings joy, luck and prosperity. As a result, Feng Shui has adopted the Laughing Buddha as a prime symbol of wealth & prosperity.
He is supposedly the only member of the seven based on an actual person. Back when Buddhist missionary monks were delivering the message & way of Gautama Buddha onto the islands of Japan, they devised a method to more efficiently reach the local Shinto inhabitants. By manifesting Buddhist principles, with Shinto Kami, the monks were successful. Kami are seen as Shinto gods and were worshiped as such.
The Buddhist monastics were able to better communicate their ideology to Japanese natives by using the Kami's as examples in common Buddhist practice. Thus, Buddhism became very widely accepted in Japan and from one of these manifestations, came Hotei.

Wow, what a truly awful comic book.
Bryne inks himself here (I guess Joe Rubinstein) was busy and the results are unfortunate. The action lacks any punch and the bland faces have started, years earlier than I thought they would. It doesn't help his rendition of the first Cap costume is silly.
As for the writing, Stern outdoes himself as far as expository. FDR narrates the beginning of the story (because FDR used to read reports aloud to subordinates) then Stern has the subordinate narrate some more of the issue.
It's an iconic origin retelling. I remember it from when I was a kid (I think Marvel reprinted it a lot). If this retelling is the best one they had, they were in a sorry state. There's not a single good moment in the entire comic book.
Every time Stern's writing seems its worst, he drops it down another notch.

What do you think about the Alonso for McCoy trade?
Love it. We've added an elite player to the offense.
I'm not happy. Too much money for a RB and I hate losing Alonso.

Senderens, 8th Arr.
France 75008
Tel: 33 1 42 65 22 90
Metro: Madeleine
Concierge.com's insider take:
Many Parisian gastronauts view former three-star chef Alain Senderens as untouchable. He practically invented Nouvelle Cuisine, and for decades he piloted cutting-edge Lucas Carton, where a meal could top $500 a head. Then young chefs stole the limelight, opening exciting new restaurants without the pomp. Instead of retiring, Senderens shook Michelin in 2005 by announcing he no longer wanted three stars, and quickly lowered prices, redid his menu, and radically remodeled his landmark Art Nouveau premises. Nowadays Lucas Carton is—guess what?—Senderens. How he got permission to redo a landmark dating to 1732 remains a mystery. The beveled mirrors and sculpted woodwork survived, but the decorators went wild with curving 1970s beam-me-up-Scotty partitions and tight tables. The upside: Senderens's food still thrills and meals now hover around 100 euros (with wine—or whiskey, another of the restaurant's irreverent touches). As before, each dish is plated artwork: You hesitate to take your fork to rich roasted duck foie gras with caramelized quinces or plump roasted scallops resting on creamed Jerusalem artichokes and two chard-stuffed ravioli. The restaurant is nonsmoking, which hasn't dissuaded the business bigwigs or fashion, publishing, and power-art crowd that fill it lunch and dinner. Book ahead.
Open daily noon to 2:45 pm and 7:30 to 11:15 pm.

About Us
Erlene Howard
Long fascinated by the biology of our ecosystems, and an avid recycler since "way before curbside pickup," Erlene Howard initially came to composting by way of her organic diet." I was teaching someone about raw food prep, and she asked for my food scraps to add to her compost bin. Once I learned about composting, I was really drawn to making it work for me." Though the theoretical part came easily, living in a condo without a backyard made the practical application more difficult. "I thought, 'more people would do this if it were easy.'"
Erlene shared her vision for a residential compost pickup service with Ken Dunn at The Resource Center in Chicago. She drew on Dunn's knowledge of composting and her own experience running small businesses to create Collective Resource, Inc.
As CRI's owner, Erlene wears many hats. Though she manages operations, equipment, crews, bookkeeping and marketing, she says she enjoys the education piece the most. "When we started this in 2010, not too many people had been exposed to composting. They didn't really know what it was. I have had a lot of conversations about what composting is and why it's important. It's important to reduce landfill use, because food waste in landfills creates methane and CO2. It's important for air and water quality. People call us and want this information."
Erlene finds herself educating in many different settings. "Anytime I'm talking about the company, I'm educating about composting. It happens casually, socially, and at zero-waste events." As a result of her efforts, Erlene was recently awarded the Walter Lucansky Environmental Stewardship Award.
Erlene is delighted with the way CRI has grown. "In the beginning, it took us six months to divert our first ton. Now we do nine tons every week." That volume continues to grow, in part because of the attention CRI receives from the media. "There has been a lot of interest from newspapers and Medill journalism students, she says. People want to tell our story."
Mary Beth Schaye
From the moment she hosted her first event using compostable products in 2010, Mary Beth Schaye has been hooked on zero waste. She joined Collective Resource on Earth Day the following year and has been an enthusiastic evangelist for composting ever since.
Her passion for educating people in waste diversion makes her an ideal product and event planning consultant for CRI. "Hosting a zero-waste event is a great way to spread the word about the benefits of composting. It's environmentalism in action." Her design background and aesthetic sensibility also come into play here. "Environmentalism doesn't have to be dull. You can have a party that's both green and stylish. It can be both intrinsically and physically beautiful."
Mary Beth strongly believes that, "It's always better to be doing something rather than nothing." If you're thinking of composting at home, she can help you work out what your particular "something" can be. She's confident a solution can be tailored to fit anyone's needs and ambitions. "Anyone who eats can be a CRI customer, whether you are an individual or a large organization. I want you to understand the advantages of composting, and I can show you how CRI can make it easy."
Mary Beth has successfully designed waste diversion strategies for individuals, schools, houses of worship and other communities. She's received the governor's Environmental Hero award for her work at her daughter's school. Whether you're starting with a backyard bin, a kitchen bucket, a worm farm, or large-scale commercial collection, Mary Beth can be your good-natured guide.
Becky Brodsky
As a youngster, Becky Brodsky spent a lot of time outdoors. That's where her father, a self-taught botanist, wanted to be. She traces her enthusiasm for composting and other environmental issues to having had this direct relationship with the natural world. Her parents also introduced her to the concept of sustainability through their work with food co-ops and Greenpeace. As a result, Becky says, "I've always been more aware of what I use and how I'm using it."
At CRI, Becky is a Zero Waste Event Consultant with a focus on organizations, particularly schools and businesses. "Composting can be good for businesses. They can actually save money on their waste hauling. It can also attract customers with similar values."
In the home, composting "sets a good example and communicates your values to your children. It makes you more aware of how you're using everything else. You end up buying less and wasting less in other areas, which can also result in savings."
As part of her integrated approach to environmentalism, in 2008, Becky founded the Green Team in the school her children attend and has led a wide variety of environmental efforts with a focus on waste reduction. She also set up a composting and recycling program at her synagogue.
In 2010, Becky received the Walter Lucansky Environmental Stewardship Award for her local efforts. Her green series of educational programs for the National Council of Jewish Women received national recognition. She has also earned her Green Classroom Professional Certificate from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), serves on the USGBC-Illinois Chapter's Green Schools Committee, and played a key role in the development of the programming for the 2014 Illinois Healthy and High Performing Schools Symposium. "Anything I'm involved with, I am compelled to make greener."

There's only one candle on Lallage Jones' birthday cake. Since Lallage is celebrating her 101st birthday today, she's entitled to as many or as few candles as she wants.
And Lallage, a retired educator and "preacher's wife," hasn't lost her sense of humor about reaching the milestone.
Born Oct. 11, 1908, she had one early birthday celebration with family and friends during this week's Golden Age Group luncheon at First United Methodist Church.
These days, consumers are trying to stretch every dollar as far as possible.
But if you have thoughts of partially reusing in the kitchen what you scoop from a Halloween jack-o'-lantern this year, you may be disappointed by the results.
Pumpkins intended for carving don't taste good; they are only meant as decorations for ghosts and goblins.
The stack of July 22, 2009, issues of The Lancaster News in the newspaper morgue is getting shorter.
Just about once a week now, the voice on the other end of the phone makes the same request.
"I cut out the recipe for that Butter Pecan Pound Cake that has the icing mixed into the batter, but I don't know what I did with it. Can you tell me how to get another copy of it? That thing is perfect with a cup of coffee."
One of my neighbors, Ken McManus, has a similar opinion of the cake.
Dr. John Griffin, distinguished professor emeritus at the University of South Carolina, has always been fascinated by the life (and death) of Abraham Lincoln.
But through the years, Lincoln's life has grown to such heroic and epic proportions that it's hard to separate fact from fiction.
Now Griffin has put together another biography on the 16th president entitled "Mr. Lincoln and His War."
Griffin will make a 30-minute slide presentation and sign copies of his latest book at 7 p.m. Oct. 12 at the Lancaster County Library.
Sausage is almost like barbecue. Each region (and sometimes, country) has its own kind that uses ingredients and seasonings common to that specific area.
It's sort of like mustard base, vinegar base, ketchup base and white base barbecue sauces. Sausage is what it is, depending on where you live.
In the South, sausage is usually a mixture of ground pork, pork fat, sage and peppers and other spices that's made into patties and fried.
Janie McManus loves historical fiction.
For the seventh grade social studies teacher at South Middle School, it's a way to make the textbook come alive.
Right now, she is reading "Breadwinner" by Deborah Ellis, to her classes, which is about the Taliban in Afghanistan.
"Will it be on that big test at the end of the year? Probably not," she said.
"But it's timely and they need to know this stuff.
Pure Prairie League still throws T-shirts in the seats before taking the stage.
The play list for each concert is still taped to the floor beneath each microphone. Some things never change.
Talk about old school, they still tune guitars in between songs, when needed.
Everybody loves it when a "local" makes good, and Lancaster has its share of bragging rights of those who have made their mark.
You can now add Vickie Bailey Ebbers to the list.
The Lancaster native is now a nationally-recognized artist who has turned her love of family, friends and even cherished pets into a long list of award-winning paintings.
Her artwork is now showing in Charlotte as part of the "Carolina's Got Art," exhibition at Atherton Mill in the South End Area.
When Hazel and Betty Vincent first moved into their home at 112 Survey St. 14 years ago, a manicured lawn was only a pipe dream.
Their priority was taking care of Betty's aging mother.
As years passed, Betty lost her mother.
But Betty found solace for that loss by spending time in her yard.
The result is a beautifully landscaped lawn filled with spacious beds providing a variety of blooms and foliage.
The Vivian Major Robinson concert on Oct. 4 will be a first for Lancaster.
LearnTV will record the recital for playback and also provide the audience with an up-close look at organist Robert P. Glick via a viewing screen during the 2:30 p.m. concert that day at First Presbyterian Church.
Glick is associate professor of church music and organ at Erskine College and Theological Seminary,
This is a big change from a normal organ concert.
For perhaps the first time, you'll get to see something other than the back of the organist's head.

I second the opinion that Stella and Luna are too matchy for sisters. I think I would personally avoid another S name, even though I love Susanna nn Sookie for you.
Lilly Pearl is my favorite combination from your list and would make a stunning double name!
Marigold nn Goldie
Ava Jewel
Ruby Anne
Waverly Sue
Sapphira Lilly若兰
I'm just a third-culture girl with an affinity for names.

Wow - 2 months? Whoa! 6 kids!
I hope this helps with your decision.
Audrey Anne - I love it as a double name. Personally, I love the nickname Dree.
Sophia Anne is nice, but Sophia is so popular. Since you like True Blood, you could go with Sophie Anne as a double name. Sophie is not as popular and Sophie Anne would be even less popular. Or Anna Sophia, like actress, AnnaSophia Robb. It is super cute!
Pearl make a great middle name, if you are not keen on a one syllable first name.
Luna and Stella are too matchy
Sookie Anne or Sookie Mae - Sorry, I think that Sookie is an awful name. It can be a nickname for Susan/Suzanne/Susanne/Susanna(h) though
Jewel - What about Julia, Juliet(te), Julianne or Julianna? Nickname Jules?
Lilly - too common
Other suggestions: Cordelia - it means "heart/daughter of the sea", Ruby Sweetheart (It's Tobey Maguire's daughter's name), Tallulah means "leaping water" - You could use Lula as a nickname - it's similar to Luna. Leora or Leona would be cute with Stella.
Good luck!

Six Coolest New Clubs and Bars in Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach
4. American Social
It's been a while since we've had this much fun on Las Olas. Thanks to American Social and its extensive craft beer selection and stellar DJs -- from Thursday through Saturday night -- we've found a new favorite among the strip's upscale restaurants, tourist-trinket traps, and Guy Harvey-loving art galleries.
With its self-serve beer taps and live music nights, we were in love at first Cigar City Jai Alai pour. Cheers.
This is a laid-back beer lover's paradise, where you can enjoy a break from Himmarshee shenanigans and hear some great tunes. We can drink to that all night long.

3. Bar Stache
We were bummed to find out that Fort Lauderdale's indie dance hub Green Room was closing. But like the saying goes, when one door closes, another opens, and seeing Stache come to life in the former Green Room space brought a smile to our faces.
Set up like a 1920s speakeasy, this darkly lit cocktail lounge, nightclub, and concert hall surely sets a mood. Inside, it celebrates the "art of mixology," and what a magnificent art form it is (one of our favorites, perhaps). It's one the bartenders at Stache have decidedly perfected.
2. Pawn Shop Lounge
Miami's former center for kitsch, Pawn Shop, was one of the most anticipated nightclubs to open on Clematis Street in a while. And with its Ferris wheel, VIP section made out of an airplane fuselage, and a mac daddy (constructed out of a Mac truck) DJ booth, the Pawn Shop lives up to the hype.
A feast for the eyes and the ears, it all might seem extravagant, but Pawn Shop is decidedly not so. It's the eclectic, relaxed dance club that Palm Beach County was craving. Read about the recent opening night here.

Serving the community a vital role in farming
Barry Alston meets an award-winning hill farmer whose biggest fear is misplacing his diary.
With some of Britain's most picturesque scenic views as a backdrop to the farm, most people would be reluctant to spend time away.
But Hedd Pugh is not like most people - a fact borne out by him winning the first NFU Cymru-NatWest Rural Community Champion of the Year Award.
The award aims to recognise the hard work farmers do off the farm to help their local town or village communities and Hedd was recognised, for his commitment to both.
First and foremost he is a beef and sheep farmer, but his other involvements more than meet the award's criteria.
Described as 'a pillar of the community' by many local residents, he divides his spare time between 24 organisations, societies and activities, all of which play an important role in preserving what is best about rural living.
Such commitment does not come with any presumptions as he was nominated for the award by the YFC Meirionnydd county organiser after being involved with his local YFC.
"I didn't realise how much I was involved with until I got the letter to tell me I had reached the final three and I sat down and made a list."
His dedication ranges across farming and non-farming interests and one look at his overflowing diary poses the question of how he can fit everything in.
"It is very difficult sometimes to balance everything and things do clash, but I manage. It's very important I carry my diary," he says.
Family business
At the same time he keeps a firm grip on his farming activities, which extend to 647 hectares (1,600-acres) around Blaencywarch Farm, nestling in the Cwm Cywarch Valley, Dinas Mawddwy, and are overshadowed by Aran Fawddwy, the highest British mountain south of Snowdon.
There are a further 34ha (85 acres) of 'lower' ground near Machynlleth, and conditions on his 2,900-foot high grazings can be tough, but Hedd takes it all in his stride.
The farming system revolves around 10 Hereford and Welsh Black crossbred suckler cows
going to a Charolais bull and 1,200 ewes, mainly improved Hardy Welsh Mountains, which are kept pure but with 100 or so going to Lleyn rams and the resulting crossbreds tupped by a Texel.
Because of the severe conditions, ewe lambs and 400 ewes are wintered away on tack, returning for March and April outdoor lambing. Most lambs are finished and sold deadweight.
It is a farming system Hedd has grown up with, and he knows every inch of the ground and how to make best use of the resources.
He has a very supportive family too, with his wife, Sian, working full-time job as a classroom assistant at a primary school in Dolgellau.
They took over the farm, which has been in the family for generations, back in 1985 and have three sons - each one keen to be a farmer, which in itself is somewhat of a rarity these days.
Eldest son, Dewi, 22, already works on the farm, as well as spending time in the summer contract shearing around Wales and in New Zealand during the winter months.
Owain, 21, is studying for a degree in agriculture at Aberystwyth University, while 18-year-old Carwyn is broadening his skills by taking a building course at Coleg Meirion Dwyfor, Dolgellau.
Young Farmers
Seeing a future for the area's farming families is a key driver behind Hedd's freely-given time to such a diverse range of rural organisations.
Currently his biggest commitment is as chairman of Governors at Coleg Meirion Dwyfor, which also takes in the Glynllifon Agricultural College. Even though that can take up to two days a week, it is merely a blip on a very long list.
Just some of his other involvements, either as chairman or member, include the Snowdonia Local Access Forum, the Aran Society, Meirionnydd County Show, the YFC at club, county and Welsh level, the Welsh Lamb and Beef producers co-operative, NFU Cymru at county and Welsh Council level, the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society at county and council level, the community council and the local village hall.
There are plenty of others, too, and he is involved in the local drama society - acting, producing and working behind the stage as it tours around local venues.
When asked if there is a particular favourite group, he ponders.
"Now that's a job to answer. But I think it would have been Young Farmers. It was there I really star-ted taking a part in my local community and it's nice to be active and give something back to them.
"I also like college work because it's so important we make sure we have a good education for the young people in the area."
While market prices for stock are critical to the farm, so too, in his eyes, are its Tir Mynydd hill support payments and Tir Gofal agri-environmental scheme - both destined to be swallowed up by the proposed Welsh Assembly all-embracing Glastir land management scheme from 2012 onwards.
Though a great deal of the finer detail is not yet known, what is perfectly clear in Hedd's mind is that any cuts in support level will have serious repercussions on Welsh hill farming.
"Without a similar level of support, farming in areas such as this would just not be viable," he says.
"It would spell the end for family farms like ours, with the younger generations being forced to move away in order to survive.
"On a rough calculation, I reckon I stand to lose at least 20 per cent of my income.
"There is not a great deal we can do to replace that lost income. Everything that could be done to improve the quality of our lambs has already been done.
"Maybe we could convert some of our redundant outbuildings into some form of tourism use, but that takes capital and payback could take years.
"Not too many years ago there was recognition that support payments were essential to keep people farming in the hills.
Nothing has changed since. The conditions are just as hard. If anything, the pressures on hill farmers are far worse," he says.
"Costs have soared, yet the prices we have been getting for our lambs are no higher than in the mid 80s. My wool cheque is nowhere near what it was, either.
"Hundreds of similar hill and upland farms will be facing the same dilemma and once the youngsters have gone, who will be left with the necessary knowledge and experience to maintain farming in such areas?
"Without sheep on the ground, in no time at all the landscape will turn into wilderness, with bracken, brambles and gorse and within 10 years it will be impossible to walk in the hills.
"Tir Mynydd is not only about delivering a hill farming income - it also delivers environmentally, socially and culturally."
As to the future, will he be joining any other organisations?
"You never know, but I think I've got my hands full enough. Farmers and those living in the countryside play an important role in making sure communities stay alive and contribute to ensuring we keep our traditions, and the Welsh language, going for as long as we can."

Tom Persich holds a cake and Bake sale in Beccles for Age UK. He is also set to run the London Marathon.

A Beccles man has signed up to complete his second marathon, inspired by his 90-year-old grandmother.
Tom Persich took part in the Berlin Marathon in 2011 with his two older brothers to raise money for East Anglia's Children's Hospices, and next month will be taking on the London Marathon in aid of Age UK, a charity which provides elderly people with information and advice.
Mr Persich, who also signed up as a way of celebrating his 26th birthday, said having an elderly grandmother and hearing about the work Age UK does in the community made him want to fund-raise again.
He said: "I've always wanted to run the London Marathon. I've applied a few times and this year I just thought let's go for it.
"I know first-hand about the community work Age UK does and how valuable it is, especially in the winter. I've got an elderly grandma who is 90 and they are very good at helping elderly people keep their independence."
Mr Persich is aiming to raise £1,800 and has held collections outside Tesco and Roys in Beccles, where shoppers donated more than £340. He also held a bake and craft sale at Beccles Public Hall on Saturday, where he raised £288. In order to increase sponsorship, Mr Persich has also decided to run in fancy dress and will choose his outfit from a list of suggestions put together by donors.
He said: "Some of the stranger suggestions are that I dress as a character from Monsters Inc or a shopping trolley!"
Mr Persich has been training hard since January and will be joining other Age UK runners for a training weekend in London.
