Machine Generated Transcript
This is -- in the -- for CSN Bay Area dot com usually I'm here with mending Mindy usually standing right here she's not here today which means. That I had no one to tell me. Then my outfit is downright goofy. Regardless today. Saturday was the 49ers. This padded practice at a six practices these guys are tired. Sunday they get a complete day off that means no practicing no meeting time nothing mandatory those guys are going to enjoy some time off to rest their bodies and rest their minds. Now on the practice field. Alex Smith -- went through another practice our -- the first team offense. Up and down a little bit I had the Braylon Edwards connection hasn't clicked yet. Braylon had a drop and there were some times where Braylon zig and outside He would -- so. That is something that certainly the opposite coaching staff and Braylon Edwards and Alex Smith are continuing to work up courses are out here on the practice field on Saturday. Patrick Willis of course it was Patrick Willis the guy can flat out play. Forced fumble Anthony Dixon and a short yardage situation. Made an interception the guy was tournaments all over the field. The office -- line it started to take C a little bit now. Alex Boone is a -- to keep an eye on -- guy who's had a difficult time. Getting on the field he's only suited up for one game in two seasons he's on the practice squad one year this year he's being. The relied upon to beat them back up tackle at both the right side and the left side -- I see in all of his action exclusively on the left side today. Joseph -- left practice a little bit early. Alex who stepped in and took over the duties now that's the reason that. Barry Sims who started seven games each of the past two seasons has not been resigned -- the 49ers want Alex Boone the young guy to take over. And I do -- he's he's a quite a story because He came to the 49ers -- undrafted. Considered a character risk since coming here touchdown on his weight. He admittedly has cut down on his drinking He says he's no longer drinking and swing in and doing all kinds of bad things he's turned his life ran so that's a good story. For the 49ers. Now -- today also the first day on the practice field for. Veteran safety Donte Whitner so He is going to be a true strong safety. And in you can tell that the guy multi hit there a couple times where He was right around reaction. And because these are his teammates He did it just blow somebody up including a red zone drill and Vernon Davis ended up catching a touchdown pass to Donte Whitner was right there. Could have put the big hit but of course fullback as deep as the players don't want to hurt their offensive teammates here training camp. Donte Whitner is a strong safety. In the past four years have done a lot of interchangeable safety strong safety free safety did they switch back and forth this year if Reggie Smith. Continues playing the way He is He will be the free safety he'll be playing center field Donte -- closer to the line of scrimmage the last -- with the bills the guy. Piled up a 140 tackles Dallas -- most tackles by any player in the NFL. Who's not He linebacker. So anyway Sunday a day off everybody can rest up. And they're gonna get back to work on Monday so practices Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday and indeed. 49ers of 2011 Jim Harbaugh has forty that will be unveiled. Friday night.

2004, 67" x 67"
Fragments of Michaels's baby cloths, cloth toys, t-shirts, karate belts, and the jeans and plaid shirt he died in. Made in the studio with Mary Kessler, Micheal's mother. Machine and hand pieced, hand quilted.
This quilt is made from the clothing of Michael Christopher Kessler, who took his life when he was 17.
His mother, Mary, brought to my studio, boxes of clothes, cloth toys and baby quilts from his infancy, childhood and teenage years. She unwrapped karate belts, booted jumpers, stuffed dinosaurs, small t-shirts with zoo animals and monster trucks. . .
We cried together when she uncovered and touched the pair of blue jeans and the short sleeved, plaid shirt he chose to die in.
"Gayatri", saraaires (quartodeideias), and 23 other people added this photo to their favorites.
I'm sorry to hear about someone dying that way-especially someone so young. I lost my brother to suicide september, 2006. Its been hard on my parents and me as well. My mom found a company here in columbus, oh that makes quilts from t-shirts. My brother had a lot of shirts so we decided to make quilts from them. I think its a nice way of remembering them.
Such a beautiful, cheerful quilt with such a sad story. My heart goes out to you and the mother.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful blanket with us. My mother just finished a blanket (not a t-shirt), in honor of my older brother Michael, who passed away do to an illness in (B.1983-) 1999. Many hugs to Mary.
What a sad, sad story, but I'm so glad you helped Mary make this beautiful quilt!
I've admired this quilt and the reason you made it for several years. It came to mind again in light of the recent tragedies. Wrapping yourself in the clothes of loved ones is such a comfort when they are not here for us to put our arms around.

Full steam ahead! After a slew of false starts and technical difficulties, the British Steam Car just broke the world land speed record for a steam-driven vehicle by hitting a scorching average speed of 139.843mph! Dubbed the "fastest kettle in the world", the 25-ft long car smashed the century old record of 127mph at 8:19 this morning at Edward's Air Force Base in California.
Driver Charles Burnett III says: "It was absolutely fantastic I enjoyed every moment of it. We reached nearly 140mph on the first run before I applied the parachute. All systems worked perfectly, it was a really good run. The second run went even better and we clocked a speed in excess of 150 mph. The car really did handle beautifully."
Prior to smashing the world record set by American Fred Marriott in 1906, the spaceshuttle-esque vehicle was able to reach speeds of 129mph in a single run, but the attempt was cut short when engineers decided to investigate why it was not going even faster. The issue turned out to be an open valve which was allowing steam to escape into the atmosphere from one of the car's 12 boilers. After repairs the vehicle was fired up again this morning and conducted two official runs where it hit blistering top speeds of 136mph and 151mph, setting a new international record.
How exactly does this alternatively-powered steam car run? Twelve boilers, which run on liquid petroleum gas, heat water to temperatures of 752F (400C) which is injected into a turbine to run the engine. The 12 boilers can get through 220 gallons of water in 25 minutes, and can pump out 8.8 gallons of steam a minute. Congratulations to the team for their tremendous success after 10 years of hard work!

How To Remove An Old Sliding Shower Door
Don't eat while you read this.
Seriously, don't.
This is the story of removing the sliding shower doors in our master bathroom. It was one of those can't-do-this-soon-enough tasks that was at the top of our list.
Not only did they enclose the tub in a way that a soft white fabric curtain wouldn't, they had seen better days. So there were lines of rust around them…
… and pretty impressive amounts of caulk that seemed to be holding them together.
Plus their height was oddly low, so John hit his head (not once but twice) while climbing in. Fool him once, shame on the shower doors – fool him twice, shame on John. Here's a good ol' fashioned fully-clothed reenactment for you.
Apparently he likes those (exhibit A, exhibit B, exhibit C)
Anyway, the first scene to Get Those Dastardly Doors Down (the movie) involved swinging them out at the bottom so they could be lifted away from the track that held them in place at the top.
The top frame actually lifted right off after we did that, and then it came down to removing a few screws on each of the side frames to free them from the wall.
At least that's what we thought. And then we remembered all that caulk. So we needed to score (and score and score) those wads of silicone to get those frames free.
When they came off it kind of looked like they were coated with icing. Except substantially less appetizing.
Here's the gross part. WARNING. Stop eating. Or stop reading this entirely if you're especially squeamish.
Second warning. Seriously, stop it with the pop tart. Put it down.
Last warning. There's no button to un-see this.
We then discovered this thick layer of scum that was living under the frame on the bottom of the tub, which wasn't screwed in. So it just lifted off to reveal this tasty sight of 3D mildew and general nastiness. I used a flat razor to scrape the scum (check out my veiny hands – I think they bulge when I'm trying not to gag).
Then the tub looked like this, which is nice and open from afar.
Even the spots where the frame was screwed in were pretty small (so a dab of silicone caulk in each one sealed them off, and once we hung the shower curtain we knew they'd be obscured even more).
But if you got a little closer, the issue was the caulk around the tub.
Many areas were missing caulk completely, and some had pink-ish mildew or even old rotted brown spots (don't even know what caused those) but one thing was clear: we needed to strip off the old caulk and re-caulk the entire perimeter of the tub and even down the sides and along the base at the floor. So we used a combination of a box cutter and this little plastic tool that we grabbed at Home Depot for a few bucks (it has a razor in the middle of the V to help slice while it pulls the caulk away from the wall).
That tool didn't work along the bottom of the tub (couldn't really grab the caulk there along the floor) so out came the box cutter again.
About an hour later (took a while, but it was pretty satisfying work) we had this caulk collection going on.
Then it was time to get some fresh stuff down. Be sure to use something silicone that's meant for a tub/shower (we like the white colored stuff over clear caulk since it blends with the tub). Oh and we taped off the top edge so all we had to do was smooth it with our finger and then peel off the tape while it was still wet for a nice clean line against that dark tile.
Much better, eh?
Then after it all dried we hung our extra long shower curtain with a tension rod from Home Depot and it finally felt clean and airy. The to-the-ceiling-height always adds some nice "head-room" so it feels a lot less cramped to us (and it's never dark in there since light passes through white fabric really easily).
Our 95″ waffle weave curtain originally came from amazon (but we hear target.com occasionally sells them too). We got it years ago at our first house and it has held up nicely since it's 100% cotton and can be tossed in the wash (we have an extra long white fabric liner from Bed Bath & Beyond that hangs on the inside of the tub to block spray). As for why it came with us, shower curtains don't stay like regular curtains when a house sells down here – probably because they can be pretty decor-specific and are universal in size – so they work in your next house in a way that certain height curtains or certain width blinds wouldn't.
One thing's for sure: a little caulk and a new curtain can definitely made a big difference.
As for the fate of this bathroom, there's some tile damage around the toilet and sink as well as at the top corners of the shower and of course that wallpaper's days are numbered, but we plan to live with the tile for a while and then eventually expand the bathroom's footprint into the sink nook area so we have one big space instead of two smaller choppy ones (having one sink in the bathroom and one right outside of it instead of one big bathroom with a double sink just isn't our preference). This post with a floor plan might help you visualize things.
So it should be fun to reconfigure this room down the line and retile/add a double sink/etc. But we like living with a space for a nice long time before doing dramatic reno (who knows, we might completely change our mind and go a different direction after thinking it through). In the meantime, I sort of love the blue hex tile, so we're going steady for now. I'd insert some joke about how it sees me naked all the time, but my mom might text me about it (yes, she texts now, which is hilarious and awesome).

It's SUCH a transformation just removing those doors. And I'm loving the extra long shower curtain!
Wow…that is quite an impressive (?) layer of scum you had to scrape off there! *heebie jeebies* I think that is my biggest quirk about moving into a house that's new to us but previously owned…thinking of all of the "remnants" left over from the owner.
But you made it look quite good until you can really dig in and do what you want to it!
Wow! That wallpaper is epic!
I was gonna say…I am totally digging the retro awesomeness (awfulness?) of the wallpaper! Totally reminds me of the wallpapered bathrooms in my last townhouse rental.
Agreed, it's quite…. stunning.
That is the EXACT paper in my parents home growing up. Eek. Oh, and it has a coordinate.
For some reason, I didn't think the mildew looked that bad, but I'm sure it's because I wasn't there in person.
Forgive the randomness of this, but the hex tile made me think of a recent thrift store find…
Hex nesting boxes with insects on top. They're waiting in a box for some fancy (or simple) makeover. Three bzzz's to my hub for finding them for 50 cents!
Yeesh… groddy! Looks so much fresher now, though!!
Unrelated question… my husband and I are crib shopping, and I was wondering if you were still happy with the one you bought for Clara? Would you purchase it again now that you've lived with it for three years?
I have the same crib for my daughter, who is almost 2, and we've been really happy with it too.
Thank you!!
We have it to, but in brown. Love it…we really needed the extra storage on the bottom.
Ugh…I meant "TOO."
I'm seriously falling for vintage tile! I love the large-scale blue hex in your bathroom (although I can't believe you're not keeping that wallpaper! ;)
And it's just so strange to me that you leave the curtains behind! Down here the only thing you leave is the refrigerator!
So funny how what's left behind varies so much. Here (Los Angeles), curtains always seems to stay (though I seldom want them!). And, interestingly, refrigerators NEVER stay – they almost never even stay in an *apartment*!
I kinda love that large scale blue hex tile, too! If it was in turquoise I would swoon.
Just changing out the caulking and switching out the shower door for an extra long curtain made such a difference in this room! It seems to have gone from "Address this room immediately" to "can live with this for a while" in one project flat.
AND it IS funny how things left behind vary by area: when we moved in we were left with NO curtains or fridge, but they left the shower curtain (clear with cornflower blue and dusty mauve seashell design….oh la la)
Here in Australia you take everything except the stove/oven and the blinds. I can't imagine leaving the fridge or curtains behind… It's so weird how it's different everywhere you go…
gross. I feel sick.
Why did not you WARN me!
Thanks for the food warning. Serious. Looks great!
Love the white curtain! I will need that once we completely gut our bathroom. It'll be gross, I'm sure. Our house is around 90 years old and some old plumbing is in our main floor bath. Scary! But we are taking everything down to the studs and buying brand new everything. AFTER two bedroom remodels and hopefully all before Halloween when my little man is expected to arrive.
I feel kind of dumb, but I never realized you could remove sliding doors that easily! This has rocked my little (sheltered) world. Thank you! Watch out guest bathroom, I'm coming for ya!
That's the first thing I've done in two homes, take the dreaded shower doors down. Hate them. Hard to keep those crevices clean not to mention, as we've seen here, what collects underneath as well!
I totally ate breakfast while I was reading this. Does that make me hardcore?
Uh… I think I had a shirt with the same pattern as that wallpaper circa 1981. Yikes! Funny that removing the nasty shower doors was the first thing we did when we moved in. Our tub rim looked about the same. Fortunately our neighbors had a dumpster they let us use to dispose of them!
I love when I get to work and there is a new YHL post to start my day! Makes Monday morning a little easier. Thanks!!
I absolutely HATE sliding shower doors. They are so unecessary and get disgusting. Thanks for this post! You made it look a little easy to remove them and have motivated me to tackle my mom's bathroom (that I used for 10 years of my life, hence my personal hatred for them).
The shower doors in our otherwise fantastic rental mean I've never once showered in the en-suite. Happy to truck it across the hall for some curtained ablutions!
I enjoy living on the edge, so I didn't put down my granola bar for that jarring mildew image. While grotesque and stomach turning, there's something oddly satisfying about it. Nothing beats showering in a fresh shower!
Not gonna lie, VERY relieved to read that you're kinda loving the Blue Hex Tile! I think it's got some major potential :)
I removed a shower door too when I moved into my place. (Okay, I didn't do it my uncle did. Same difference.) Thank god it didn't require that much work. But the difference between door & curtain is amazing, I agree. I don't understand why people put the doors on. They're awkward. And hard to get into for most people.
Also, that wallpaper kind of gives me a headache. I can't imagine how you guys feel having to look at it every day. Especially all bleary eyed in the morning.
Yay! I am glad you said you like the hex tile for now because I really like it too! I can't wait to see what the room looks like with the wallpaper down because now I really like the room. Good choice on taking down that door. Yuck! You were brave!
I'm so glad to hear that you like that blue hex tile, too! I understand that you'll probably need to change it at some point, but it's so interesting, I think it's fun that you get to live with it for a while. :)
And thank you for the lesson on removing the shower doors!
So better! It's hard to believe those shower doors were ever cool. It's not like people are just taller now! And they were always gross those tracts are nasty.
I remember how those DIY bathtub slider doors were all the rage in the 70's, but I never really liked them either. I've always thought a fabulous shower curtain was a great way to dress up a bathroom (and I agree with you on your ceiling-height curtain). The fresh caulk must make the room feel so much cleaner!
THANK YOU!! I don't have the doors, but can totally relate to the caulk re-do! It needs to be done in both bathrooms at our new house, and it seems easy, but for some reason I've been feeling intimidated by it. Afraid I'd remove and be unable to replace and have a non-functioning shower? Afriad it would be a bigger task than I envisioned, I'd get in over my head and panic about how to fix? I don't know…feel kind of stupid about it, but it has scared me.
After looking over your post, the fear is (mostly) gone, so I think I'm going to go get that v-shaped razor dohickey and get to work!
Ha…I have that *exact* blue tile in my bathroom. It looks a little unhappy paired with that wallpaper, though. :( Good riddance to it, and then I'm really looking forward to seeing what you guys do with this space!
Funny how when you removed those nasty doors – the blue tile doesn't seem so bad. It might be modern lines – hexagon on the floor and stacked tiles in the shower. Definitely more livable while you continue making changes. I love that you guys aren't afraid to make temporary changes so that you can enjoy a space while you work on it, as opposed to doing it all at once. Keep it up!

MacLaren, Golf Rolling Well; Spring Practice, Day 2
After going almost two years between conference team titles in all sports, FIU could get two in three months.
The golf team, which brought home the 2013 Sun Belt Conference title, finished second in the Mountain View Collegiate with junior Meghan MacLaren (7-under 209) getting medalist by three shots. Freshman Katerina Krasnova (2-under 214) tied for 10th.
Finishing ahead of FIU: Ohio State. Among the 18 teams finishing behind FIU: Purdue, Kansas State, Iowa State, Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri and BYU.
Junior Edwin Rios went into Saturday's game against Charlotte barely hitting his weight. He came out a chunk closer to C.C. Sabathia's weight, up to .256, after going four for four with three home runs in a 23-1 Saturday mercy rule rout of Charlotte. It was the first homer hat trick in Conference USA since June 5, 2010.
Senior Brian Portelli went four for five with four RBI and a homer as FIU finally stopped making every lefthanded opposing pitcher look like Warren Spahn. The Panthers need to use this weekend against Charlotte and next weekend against Marshall to turn around this 10-13 season that's been the epitome of underachievement.
(I'm sure all the FIU players and coaches had the same thought you just did -- boy, wish they could store some of those runs...)
FIU football held its second spring practice Saturday morning. Ron Turner would address the outside media for the first time this spring. Practice was closed.
Not enough of a draw for me to wrestle South Florida/South Beach traffic on a scheduled day off with the NCAA tournament, naps and vacation staring me in the face. If something serious happens while I'm on vaca (i.e., coach firing, notable player transferring in or out, players showing full or just too much monty at the beach), I'll suit up and get back in the game. Otherwise...

Decide what works best for the particular situation, and get your hands on a good plan. In this example, a computer program was used to render a 3D version of the chopper garage. A good plan can save time, dollars and energy.
Clear the space and add some outlets to provide necessary power. Before beginning any electrical project, turn the power off, and check the existing outlet with a tester. Remove the cover, and pull the outlet from the box to expose the wiring.
Take measurements to determine the height of shelves. This will also help with the placement of the new outlets. With a box as a template, mark the hole for the first outlet. Cut a hole directly above the existing outlet, so the wiring can easily be pulled through.
Thread a fish tape up through the wall, tape on the new non-metallic sheathed cable and pull back through the opening until the wire is accessible.
Cut the hole as marked and notch the drywall where the wiring will cross the wall studs. Feed the wiring through using the fish tape.
Mark for the next box, use a drywall saw to create space, and continue the process from the previous step. After all openings are complete, install the outlets.
To install the diamond plate, cut it for the outlets by drilling the corners on the area marked for the outlet. Then, use a jig saw with a metal cutting blade to make cuts for the outlets.
Install safety plates over the non-metallic sheathed cable crossing the studs to make sure a screw doesn't end up in the wiring.
Apply a few dabs of construction adhesive to the wall, and lift the panel into place. While pressing on glue points, anchor the aluminum panel with self-tapping screws.
Continue to the final panel. Once the final panel is set into place, anchor it with self-tapping screws, and do a quick touch-up with flat black spray paint to disguise any gaps between panels.

Washer pedestal install
Can I tip the Duet washer on its back to install a 15 inch pedestal without the packing bolts that are used to keep the tub in place during shipment? Don't have the bolts and I hear they are not easily re-installed after removal.
Thanks, Dave
Called the Whirlpool tech line and they advised not to tip the washer as it may make it out of balance... Reinstalling the shipping bolts was also not advised... Lifting it onto the pedestal then bolting it together was the suggested procedure to follow... Going to need some muscle help to accomplish that.
Silly. I reinstalled the bolts on my Duet and transported it 10 miles from my old house to the new one. It was on its side in the trunk of the car - no problems what so ever.
Open up the top of the washer and stuff some blankets or pillows in between the tub and cabinet, if you have lost the bolts. Then carefully lay the washer its side. No need for the bolts unless you want to throw the washer down the stairs... ;-)

American Farmland Trust Promotes 2015 Illinois Conservation Cropping Seminars (ICCS)
Updated 02/19/2015
American Farmland Trust is the lead sponsor and an organizational partner of the Illinois Conservation Cropping Seminar series. Participants are learning how to incorporate reduced tillage and cover crops as part of their nutrient management planning and soil health program. Dr. Hans Kok, a nationally recognized soil health expert, was very well received at both the January 27th Sycamore and February 4th Mattoon seminars. "Farmers and farmland owners are seeking knowledge on how improved soil health can increase agricultural productivity and cleaner water" said Mike Baise, AFT Midwest Director, "these seminars provide them with excellent sources of information." Attendance at both meetings has been very good in spite of the challenging Midwest weather. The final 2015 ICCS will be held in Macomb on February 18th on the campus of Western Illinois University. Registration can be done online at www.ccswcd.com
The seminars will be held from 8:15am to 5:00pm on:

Leadership for Midwestern Watersheds (LMW)
Posted 02/19/2015
American Farmland Trust hosted the 2015 Leadership for Midwestern Watersheds meeting in Sycamore, Illinois, January 21-22. The meeting has become an important annual event for watershed project managers in the Midwest region. The focus of this year's LMW meeting was the USDA NRCS Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP) and how projects can be best organized and sustained. "The meeting was very timely and well-attended as RCPP project managers had just learned days earlier about which projects had been funded" said Jen Filipiak, AFT Associate Midwest Director "we were fortunate to have the two NRCS staff most knowledgeable about the program's implementation as speakers." Mark Rose, NRCS Director of Financial Assistance Programs and Meghan Wilson, NRCS Conservation Initiatives Coordinator, explained how the program will work and how RCPP projects can be successful. A meeting executive summary will soon be available on the AFT website.
Successful Conservation Cropping Seminar was Held in Normal, Illinois
On March 13, 2014, the final of three successful Conservation Cropping Seminars was held at Heartland
Community College in Normal, Illinois. "We were ecstatic at the response to these seminars," remarked Joe
Bybee, with the Illinois Department of Agriculture. "Approximately 450 farmers, industry,
academia and government agency staff were present for some great
discussion." The seminars' theme was
managing conservation cropping systems-–utilizing together three best
management practices: cover crops, conservation tillage, and nutrient
management. "Farmers often say they want
more time to chat with their peers, industry professionals, and researchers,"
commented Robert "Woody" Woodruff with the Illinois Stewardship Alliance, "So we included one and a half hours at each
session to networking, and it was successful!"
About 20 businesses and organizations co-sponsored the events,
including American Farmland Trust, Monsanto,Illinois Department of
Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. Plans
for 2015 are underway-–January 27th in DeKalb, February 4th in Mattoon and February 18th in Macomb.
National Conference on Cover Crops and Soil
The National Conference on Cover Crops and Soil Health,
held February 17-19, 2014, in Omaha, Nebraska, brought 300 agricultural
and innovators together to explore how to make American agriculture more
sustainable through improved soil health. Attendees from agricultural
industry, the farm community, academia,
government, commodity and conservation organizations wrestled with the
question "Can we achieve 20 million acres of cover crops by 2020?" Jen
Filipiak, who was
in attendance for American Farmland Trust, said, "The first full day we
learned about new
research with cover crops and soil health. The second day was divided
into small working groups to address barriers
to cover crop adoption–-what research, outreach, or markets need to be
The plenary sessions, recorded
and available online, were broadcast at more than 200 Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) and Extension offices nationwide to an additional
6,000 farmers and agricultural professionals, allowing them to participate and
engage in local conversations. The conference was sponsored by the Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) and The Howard G. Buffett Foundation.
National Farmers Union "Women Making Waves" Conference a Success
American Farmland Trust is proud to have sponsored the National Farmers Union
"Women Making Waves" conference January 11–14. Approximately 60 women farmers and ranchers, including American Farmland
Trust's Susan Sink and Jen Filipiak, were in attendance, learning the
finer points of business, estate and transition planning in a three-day curriculum
provided by Annie's Project.
the Midwest, we estimate that women currently own about half of the
agricultural land, and that percentage is growing," Filipiak noted.
"American Farmland Trust is
growing its programming for women and this was a great opportunity to
learning about what women need to be better farmers and leaders in
agriculture." Several accomplished women leaders were in
attendance, including U.S. Department of Agriculture Deputy Secretary
Krysta Harden, and Jane Alexander, the first woman deputy secretary of
agriculture in the United States. The group was large enough to showcase
diversity in geography, type
of farming, and age but small enough to facilitate learning from
attendees' personal
Women Farmland Owners Share and
Learn About Conservation at Illinois Learning Circle
future of farmland in Illinois was the center of a June 26, 2013, women-only
learning circle for female landowners in Mattoon, Illinois. Hosted by
American Farmland Trust, Prairie Rivers and the Women, Food and Agriculture
Network, the meeting brought Illinois women landowners together with women from
local partner organizations—the farm bureaus and the Soil and Water Conservation
Districts in Coles and Douglas counties—to discuss conservation practices on their
farmland. The women discussed the need to improve soil health, address invasive
species and pass a new Farm Bill. When confronted with the application process
for federal conservation programs, one participant remarked, "I feel like there
is some kind of secret society I don't belong to with an alphabet soup of
acronyms." An afternoon tour included stops to see wetland restoration, native
grass buffers along ditches, hedge rows, cover crops, grass waterways, and
stabilization structures. With four inches of rain the night before, it was
easy to see that the conservation practices had helped protect the soil and
prevent erosion. Learn

Assessing the Economic Impact of
Local Food Production for Kane County, Illinois
Farmland Trust has been helping the Kane County, Illinois, Health and Community
Services Departments with a Health Impact
Assessment (HIA) to review the
potential impacts of amending the county's farmland protection ordinance
make land available for local food production. American Farmland Trust
conducted research, reviewed the ordinance, identified
indicators and engaged Dave Swenson
from Iowa State University, to assess the potential
economic contribution of increasing fruit and vegetable production in
the county. "This work is a valuable lesson in the changing demands on
farmland protection
programs," explains Julia Freedgood, Managing Director of Farmland and
Community Initiatives at American Farmland Trust. The research found
2,157 acres of a
representative sample of 24 crops could
serve about 445,000 people in the greater Chicago metro region,
approximately $15 million in annual economic activity and create more
than 100
new jobs. Visit the HIA website to access the Kane County Health Impact Assessment Report.
American Farmland Trust Midwest
Director Accepts Reappointment to Agricultural Statistics Advisory Committee
Baise, Midwest Director for American Farmland Trust, has recently been
reappointed to the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) Advisory Committee on Agriculture Statistics. In this role, Baise helps to advise the U.S. Secretary of
Agriculture and NASS on the conduct of the agricultural census and surveys,
critical tools in helping to understand the landscape of American agriculture.
"I am pleased to be reappointed by Secretary Vilsack," said Baise. "U.S. farmers,
agribusinesses and consumers depend on the valuable information gathered
through the various NASS surveys, crop reports and Agricultural Census. NASS
employees work hard to provide accurate and timely information so crucial to
making sound agricultural policy and business decisions." Congratulations,
Illinois Passes Legislation to Help Farmers and Water Quality
Illinois farmers, environmental advocates and agricultural industry partners have cause to celebrate new legislation to help farmers deliver significant improvements in water quality. The bill is part of the Keep it for the Crop (KIC 2025) initiative, which is supported by a coalition of agricultural and environmental organizations working to improve nutrient management. "When enacted this legislation will go a long way to educate farmers and the public about the best management practices of nutrient management. A portion of the fees will also support the fertilizer program at the Illinois Department of Agricultur," explained Mike Baise, Midwest Director for American Farmland Trust, . Congratulations to our Illinois partners for getting this landmark legislation passed."
Female Landowners in Illinois Share Their Stories About Farms
The face of American agriculture is undergoing a dramatic shift. As the overall farm population ages during the next 20 years, 70 percent of farmland is expected to change hands and women may own up to 75 percent of the land that is transferred. On April 16, American Farmland Trust's Center for Agriculture in the Environment and Midwest office, along with the Women, Food and Agriculture Network and local partners, hosted the first Lady Landowners Learning Circle in Illinois. Twenty-two women took part and shared their stories about managing their family's farmland, and the workshop was featured on Iowa Public Radio as part of broader outreach to female landowners. "The next 10 years represent a significant window of opportunity for engaging women landowners in conservation," said Ann Sorensen, Director of Research at American Farmland Trust. "We must act now before the next wave of land transitions begins."
Webinar Provides Overview of BMP Challenge
Agriculture represents one of the most cost-effective ways to improve water quality. With high levels of nutrient runoff from Illinois watersheds, Best Management Practices (BMPs) used by farmers can positively impact the environment and, when done right, also improve the farmer's bottom line. Our BMP Challenge is a crop yield guarantee that helps farmers adopt conservation practices by overcoming the barrier of risk. In a recent webinar, Targeted Application of the BMP Challengein East Central Illinois and the Illiana region [ZIP file] (web video coming soon), we addressed the basics of the program and more about what we are trying to do with the BMP Challenge in the area.
Northern Counties Scan Horizon for an Agricultural Future
Illinois agricultural land is being developed at an increasingly fast pace, especially in rural and suburban landscapes. Although preservation of farmland and agricultural activities are not highly prioritized for all communities, it is important to realize that preservation in only some areas will still benefit an entire region.
Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) is the comprehensive regional planning organization for the seven counties of northeastern Illinois. By state and federal law, CMAP is responsible for producing the region's official, integrated plan for land use and transportation. The agency's innovative GO TO 2040 planning campaign will develop and implement strategies to address projected population and employment growth and its serious implications for transportation, housing, economic development, open space, the environment, and other quality of life issues. CMAP's strategy for agricultural preservation—which outlines the importance of agriculture to northeastern Illinois and the costs and benefits associated with preservation—can be found at GO TO 2040 website and the public is strongly encouraged to give feedback and participate in shaping the plan.

FAIRBANKS — Devin Loe smiled at the notion that he didn't have to move to score the game-winning goal for the Fairbanks Ice Dogs in Saturday night's 3-2 victory over the Kenai River Brown Bears in the Big Dipper Ice Arena.
It was a contrast to Friday night's victory by the same score in the opener of the North American Hockey League series between the West Division rivals and participants in the inaugural ERA Alaska Cup. The first-year Ice Dogs left wing had to burst along the boards to deliver a crossing pass to Garret Clemment for the game-winner with 6-tenths of a second left on the scoreboard clock.
All Loe had to do Saturday was be in the right place at the right time. At 3:24 into the third period, Loe parked at the right edge to the crease to collect Chandler Madry's backdoor pass and pop it in an open right side of the net to snap a 2-2 tie and eventually secure a weekend sweep for the second-place Ice Dogs (20-8-0).
"It was nice. I put myself in the right position and Chandler Madry made a great play, passing it across the crease," Loe said. "I just set myself up to put it in the back of the net, fortunately."
Logan Wendling also assisted on the game-winner, which was one of the rare times this season that Fairbanks found an open portion of the net against Brown Bears goaltender Gustaf Johansson, who takes up a lot of space in the crease with his 6-foot-4, 190-pound frame.
"He's beat us three times. He's a very good goaltender and he takes up a lot of the net, and it gives us problems," Fairbanks head coach Trevor Stewart said of Johansson, who had 33 saves Saturday.
The Ice Dogs, who also got goals from forward Colton Wolter and defenseman Nick Hinz to support Kevin Aldridge's 30-save effort, gave the third-place Brown Bears (12-12-4) problems during the last two periods.
Before Hinz evened the score at 2-2 at 4:06 into the second period, the Ice Dogs had enjoyed a few lengthy cycles. Before Loe capitalized on Madry's feed, the Fairbanks had generated second, third and even fourth chances in the Brown Bears zone.
"The first five minutes of the second period, they outplayed us and got a payoff," Kenai River coach Oliver David said. "I thought we responded in the second five minutes of the second period, but we did not get payoffs.
"Then to start the first five minutes of the third, they got a payoff," David added. "I thought we were on the aggressive and we were able to do some things that we wanted. We didn't capitalize and they had a very good goal for the game-winner, capitalizing on a missed assignment for our defensemen."
The Ice Dogs' sweep evened the ERA Alaska Cup Series at 3-3 with 10 games left between the teams.
David hopes the rest of the series is as competitive as this weekend's contests in the Dipper were.
"I hope they stay around the level they're at and the way that they're going," said David, "because for us, it's a good thing to be in the game for 60 minutes."
Hinz, with helpers from Wolter and Garret Clemment, tied the game at 2 by stepping up into the left circle and drilling in a shot off of the crossbar.
Forward Albin Karlsson figured into both Kenai River leads in the first period.
Karlsson, with assists from Alec Butcher and Alex Jackstadt, provided the game's first goal at 6:24 of the opening period, lining a shot from the top of the slot pasta screen and through Aldridge's pads.
Wolter, with the aid of Patrick Newell and Hinz, made it 1-1 for Fairbanks at 16:03 of the first by scorching in a wrist shot from the left circle while being covered by a trio of Brown Bears.
Forty seven seconds later, Kenai River defenseman Bryan Hodges collected Karlsson's feed and burst through the slot to flip the tie-breaking puck over Aldridge's glove-side shoulder. Jake Bushey also assisted for his second point of the weekend.
The Ice Dogs continue West Division play on the road, facing the fourth-place Fresno Monsters in Fresno, Calif., on Dec. 28-30 and the division-leading Wenatchee Wild in Wenatchee, Wash., on Jan. 4-6.
The Ice Dogs return to the Dipper later in January for a pair of series against North Division squads. Fairbanks plays host to the Janesville (Wis.) Jets on Jan. 11-12 and the Springfield (Mo.) Jr. Blues on Jan. 18-19.
