sites? I have a blog centered on the same subjects you discuss and would love to have you share some stories/information. I know my subscribers would appreciate your work.
If you are even remotely interested, feel free to send me an e mail.
I never understood why ppl wouldnt take the time to find an email contact instead of leaving business proposals in comments?
I like the all white look…
Cute and casual. I like the all white look as well.
Not a bombshell for me this go 'round. The chunky shoes and some other accesories seem to overwhelm your petite frame. But you're young and adorable and just need time for everything to come together.
lol @fly won.
What is this? What is this? (In my haitian voice)
them braids though
Not bad!
What's going on w/the hair? You can't be half-assing. The hair is part of the outfit as well.
I love some items individually, I have to admit I am critical. I look at the entire look. I don't like the hair with every look. I think she could have put her hair up in some of the more demure looks. I am a stickler for shoes, I hate a cheap shoe. A cheap shoe just screams "I am a cheap shoe. You already know how I feel about those round toe platforms.
Its her hair but she lives in the PI how many black stylist can she go to cut her slack she can dress tho
Toluwalade from Nigeria* living in Phillipines lol
Don't mind me…cute style for your age gyal.
Her loves for braid
a few cool looks, but then in that one pic you a way too skinny micky mouse – what is that hair? white outfit kills tho
She's Cute!
I like the last picture. That outfit is dope!
She has some nice pieces, some seem a bit overwhelming on her frame…
Cute but not memorable.
Toluwalade, Lagos ?
I will love to see your submission in the next 5 years.Till then baby girl bye & concentrate on your studies !
Her style is ok in my opinion, i wasn't in awe or anything.
Ha petite figure doesn't mean shez a small gal @yes/no u shud grow up

Make "Beautiful Darkness" Movie Happen!
So, Beautiful Creatures did not do very well in the Box Office for it's opening weekend. Many people are afraid that this will hinder the chance of a sequel to the movie, which would be based on the second book in The Caster Chronicles, Beautiful Darkness, by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. By signing this petition, and getting enough signatures, it may help to sway the decision of those involved in green-lighting the second movie. It would be very much appreciated if you would sign! thank you so so so much.

Senate Votes To Help States Sell Off Public Lands.
The new chair of the powerful Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee secured a vote Thursday afternoon in the U.S. Senate on a controversial proposal to sell off Americas national forests and other public lands. U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowskis (R-AK) amendment, which passed by a vote of 51 to 49, is now part of the Senates nonbinding budget resolution. The proposal would support and fund state efforts which many argue are unconstitutional to seize and sell Americas public lands. These include all national forests, wildlife refuges, wilderness areas, historic sites, and national monuments. Murkowskis amendment, which would need further legislation to become law, follows a similar proposal from House Natural Resources Committee Chair Rob Bishop (R-UT) to spend $50 million of taxpayer dollars to fund the sale or transfer of U.S. public lands to states.
The land grab proposals in Congress this year appear to echo the calls of outlaw rancher Cliven Bundy, best known for his armed standoff with federal officials last year, who has infamously refused to recognize the authority of the federal government, including over public lands.
Murkowskis proposal to sell off public lands, however, is meeting stiff opposition from other western senators. On a conference call yesterday, Senators Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) said that they are determined to turn back legislative attacks on the outdoors. Bennet called efforts to sell off lands to reduce the federal deficit an assault on our public lands. . . . . Senator Heinrich also introduced an amendment Wednesday which would block any effort to sell off public lands to reduce the federal deficit. Heinrich said that selling off Americas treasured lands to the highest bidder would result in a proliferation of locked gates and no-trespassing signs in places that have been open to the public and used for generations.
Public opinion research has found that a majority of Westerners oppose land grab efforts and believe that transferring public lands to state control will result in reduced access for recreation; higher taxes; increased drilling, mining and logging; and a high risk that treasured public lands will be auctioned off to the highest bidder. . . . .

Maker of tainted medical scopes issues new cleaning guide.
So the company that has dominated the global market for endoscopes for over a half century, whose endoscopes have been used by for the majority of endoscopies for decades, now discovers, after an outbreak of antibiotic resistant bacteria at 2 California hospitals, that it didn't know enough about disinfecting endoscopes to devise an adequate disinfection protocol for its duodenoscope.
Maker of tainted medical scopes issues new cleaning guide
By MATTHEW PERRONE, AP Health Writer, March 26, 2015
WASHINGTON (AP) The maker of medical scopes that have been linked to two recent "superbug" outbreaks at California hospitals has issued new cleaning instructions for the devices amid scrutiny from regulators, lawmakers and medical professionals. . . . Olympus America sent the new guidelines to U.S. hospitals on Thursday, recommending that its customers begin using them as soon as possible. The updated guidelines call for using a smaller cleaning brush and additional flushing steps to remove debris and disinfect the scope's crevices and hinges. Olympus plans to send the new brush to hospital customers by May 8.
The company's scopes were linked to infections of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in 11 patients at two separate Los Angeles hospitals last month, contributing to the deaths of two of those patients. Hospital staff said the infections occurred despite following Olympus' instructions for cleaning the devices, known as duodenoscopes. . . . The scopes consist of a flexible fiber-optic tube that is threaded down the throat, through the stomach and small intestine to diagnose and treat conditions in the pancreas and bile ducts. The tip of the scope includes moveable parts for instruments to help remove tumors, gallstones and other blockages. But this complex design also makes the instruments difficult to clean. Bodily fluids and other debris can stay in the device's joints and crevices even after cleaning and disinfection.
The FDA said in a statement it is reviewing the new cleaning instructions from Olympus as part of a broader evaluation of the company's device. . . . The agency previously disclosed that Olympus did not seek federal clearance for the latest version of its duodenoscope, which it began selling in 2010. FDA clearance is required for all substantive updates to medical devices sold in the U.S. The company's Olympus TJF-Q180V duodenoscope is currently under FDA review. . . . Seven lawsuits have been filed against Olympus in Los Angeles County Superior Court on behalf of patients, alleging negligence and fraud by the company.
If the Olympus duodenoscope has smaller biopsy channels than a colonoscope, it could be more difficult to adequately disinfect using only the chemical disinfectants that these heat intolerant fiberoptic scopes will tolerate, especially given the difficulty of adequately removing all material from the biopsy channels.
Unlike bacterial infections, which if it does not result in an acute infection, often resolves spontaneously, hepatitic C usualloy lies dormant for years or decades before symptoms develop. Of the estimated millions of Americans walking around with undiagnosed occult infections, many when eventually diagnosed turn out to have no known risk factors. The long latency period between infection and symptoms/diagnosis makes it virtually impossible to know how or when the infection was acquired.
Despite these difficulties, isolated cases of endoscopically transmitted hepatitis C have been documented after contaminated colonoscopies, generally following a coloscopy which required biopsy. When such a case is identified, other patients who had proceedured with the same scope can be notified for testing. Small outbreaks have been documented in this fashion.
But without such an index case who becomes acutely ill shortly after the proceedure, it is unlikely that isolated asymptomatic endoscopic transmissions will be diagnosed until it becomes symptomatic years later, when it will impossible to correlate the infection with theinfecting event.
Given the often non-specific symptoms, occult status, and long latency period of hepatitis C, and the many patients diagnosed each year who have had undiagnosed subclinical disease for years despite having no midentified risk factors for hepatitis C, a most relevant question becomes :
How many cases of hepatis C (bothnthose currently diagnosed and undiagnosed occult cases) have been caused by inadequate chemical sterilization of difficult-to-brush-out and impossible-to-heat-disinfect endoscopic biopsy channels?
The fact that the major pioneer in medical endocopy, after 50 years, still can't come up with an effective protocol when it markets a new scope is more a bit disconcerting.

There is only one thing to fear regarding Ted Cruz.
And it is NOT that he will be nominated. (We all know he won't. And the GOP knows that would doom them.)
What we should fear is that Cruz will succeed in his role in framing the melodrama, and that our defunct media will be given an excuse to peddle the eventual Republican nominee as "moderate conservative" and/or "sane".
Ted's role is to be so crazy that CNN, CBS, ABC, MSN, NPR will be enabled in their continued laundering of RW memes to independents, and to frame the discourse so that an eventual nominee to the right of anyone ever nominated, perhaps a Scott Walker, can be falsely peddled as a "compromise".
And, given the complicity of our "media", that is truly something to fear, and to defeat.
(Which we will.)
We can see the real enemy, and it is certainly NOT Ted Cruz, professional rodeo clown, decoy.

50% of charges at Texas ERs in IN-NETWORK hospitals being billed as out of network.
AUSTIN -- State lawmakers took up legislation Tuesday to give patients more power to defend themselves against surprise medical bills.
The proposal, Senate Bill 481, targets "balance billing," an increasingly common phenomenon that occurs when a patient is treated at a facility in the network of his health insurance plan, but by at least one individual doctor who is not part of the network.
Because patients are responsible for paying for out-of-network costs, getting a balance bill can be very expensive. And a recent report found that such bills are especially common in Texas emergency rooms, with half of charges at ERs in in-network hospitals being billed as out of network.
(Unfortunately, the link at http://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/health/article/Surprise-hospital-bills-are-common-in-Texas-5759688.php is behind a subscription wall.)
And those out of network bills are not only paid 100% by the patient, but the amount billed is often a fantasy "regular price" which is ofter 250 -600 percent higher than any insurance company ever pays.
When the culture of predatory capitalism in medicine gets so bad that even Republicans introduce bills to curb it, it's clear that this is an issue that we need to address.

Democracy for America: "Stop the TPP" petition:
(In today's email from Democracy for America) :
It's one of the biggest progressive mobilizations in years -- all to stop a bad trade deal that could destroy more American jobs.
The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) badly hurt the American middle class, sending hundreds of thousands of our jobs overseas and eroding wages for others -- while benefitting huge, multinational corporations.
Now Congress is considering approval of a new trade deal, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) that many are calling "NAFTA on steroids." Worse, Congress is being asked by the White House to rubber stamp the deal. The president wants Fast Track authority that would limit Congress's ability to amend or even review the proposed deal.
Progressive leaders are coming together to stop Fast Track and the TPP. We've successfully delayed a Fast Track bill for over a month. But we need your support to stop it for good.
Join members of Democracy for America, Progressives United, Daily Kos, Campaign for America's Future, and Representatives Keith Ellison, Raúl Grijalva, and Mark Pocan -- sign the petition to stop Fast Track for the TPP today!
Senator Elizabeth Warren has led the charge against the Fast Track provision of the TPP. She's zeroed in on a clause in the deal that would allow companies to go to an independent panel, made up of corporate lobbyists, to overturn American laws and regulations.
We only learned about that provision because of leaks from the TPP negotiations. Right now, the complete text of the deal is secret. If Congress gives Fast Track authority to the White House, Congress won't see the full text until shortly before they vote on the TPP -- and under Fast Track rules, they won't be able to amend the deal.
That's not good for democracy, and it's not good for jobs. Progressives are coming together to stop this deal and stop Fast Track authority. To keep up the momentum, we need your signature ASAP.
Sign our coalition's petition to stop Fast Track for the TPP today!
Thank you for helping stop this awful trade deal.

Froman should be fired (yesterday):
Lawmakers Say TPP Meetings Classified To Keep Americans in the Dark
Making it classified further ensures that, even if we accidentally learn something, we cannot share it. What is working so hard to hide? What is the specific legal basis for all this senseless secrecy? Doggett said to The Hill.
Open trade should begin with open access, Doggett said. Members expected to vote on trade deals should be able to read the unredacted negotiating text. . . . . . .
Perhaps he can go back to Citigroup, or managing his sleazebag Cayman investments:
...After the end of the Clinton administration in 2001, Froman followed Robert Rubin from the Treasury Department to Citigroup. He was President and Chief Executive Officer of CitiInsurance and head of Emerging Markets Strategy at Citigroup, managing infrastructure and sustainable development investments. He received more than $7.4 million from January 2008 to 2009 alone....
On May 2, 2013, Froman was nominated to serve as U.S. Trade Representative. Financial documents provided to the Senate Finance Committee showed he had nearly $500,000 in an offshore fund at Ugland House on the Cayman Islands, which Obama had once described as the biggest tax scam in the world.. . .
Actually, what did we expect from a "trade" representative that Warren voted against because he refused to commit to even the pathetic transparency standards of the Bush 43 administration?
....His nomination was opposed by only four senators chiefly Massachusetts Democrat Elizabeth Warren, who faulted Froman for refusing to commit to even the paltry standard for transparency in trade talks set by the George W. Bush administration. Warren was right to be concerned. In backroom negotiations, Froman has worked to undermine new European Union fuel standards intended to lower the continent's carbon emissions. The European standards would work, in part, by grading the carbon toxicity of various crude oils. They logically propose placing polluting tar-sands oil in a carbon class all by itself; on its path from a pit mine to the filling station, a gallon of tar-sands gas is responsible for 81 percent more climate pollution than the average gallon of regular. But instead of respecting the EU's commitment to slow global warming, Froman has worked to force North America's dirtiest petrol into the tanks of Europe's Volkswagens, Peugeots and lorries.
His hardball tactics were revealed in obscure written congressional testimony last year. In a question to Froman, Rep. Kevin Brady, an oil-friendly Texas Republican, slammed the European proposal as a "discriminatory, environmentally unjustified" trade barrier. Froman responded, "I share your concerns," and described his work to "press the Commission to take the views of . . . U.S. refiners under consideration." He explained how he had turned the standards into a point of contention in negotiations of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership a major free-trade pact being hammered out between the U.S. and the EU. Last October, Froman's team even went before the World Trade Organization to demand that all globally traded petroleum products be treated "without discrimination."

NYT: House GOP budget proposes to voucherize Medicare, block grant Medicaid, repeal ACA:
...Future recipients of Medicare would be offered voucherlike premium support to pay for private insurance rather than government-provided health care.
Spending on Medicaid would be cut substantially over 10 years, with the money turned into block grants to state governments, which in turn would have much more flexibility in deciding how it is allocated.
The budget repeals all of Obamacare, Representative Diane Black, Republican of Tennessee, said the same day the Obama administration announced that the law had provided coverage to 16.4 million previously uninsured people.To placate advocates of the military who say strict budget caps are hurting national defense, the House budget adds emergency war spending through the overseas contingency operations account, which does not count against the spending limits. . . . .
Well, do we have the issue to throw these bums out?

Warren: "ISDS is a bad deal for America" (TPP Petition)
(In today's Email, from Elizabeth Warren):
The United States is in the final stages of secret, closed-door negotiations on the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a massive trade agreement with 11 other countries.
Who will benefit from it? One provision hidden in the fine print Investor-State Dispute Settlement may sound harmless, but dont let that fool you: ISDS could let foreign companies challenge US laws without ever stepping in an American court.
That would undermine US sovereignty and tilt the playing field even further in favor of multinational corporations.
Sign my petition and spread the word: ISDS is a bad deal for America.
Heres how ISDS would work: Imagine that the United States bans a toxic chemical that is often added to gasoline because of its health and environmental consequences. If a foreign company that makes the toxic chemical opposes the law, it would normally have to challenge that regulation in a US court.
But with ISDS, the company could skip the US courts and go before an international panel of arbitrators. If the multinational company won, the ruling couldnt be challenged in US courts, and the arbitration panel could require American taxpayers to cough up millions and even billions of dollars in damages.
If that seems shocking, buckle your seat belt. ISDS could lead to gigantic fines, but it wouldnt employ independent judges. Instead, highly paid corporate lawyers would go back and forth between representing corporations one day and sitting in judgment the next. Really.
And if the tilt toward giant corporations wasnt clear enough, consider who would get to use this special court: only international investors, which are, by and large, giant corporations. So if a Vietnamese company with US operations wanted to challenge our refusal to import a dangerous chemical, it could use ISDS. But if an American labor union or human rights group believed Vietnam was allowing Vietnamese companies to pay slave wages in violation of trade commitments, the American labor group would have to make its case in the Vietnamese courts and if an environmental group thought the Vietnamese company was dumping waste in their rivers in violation of the new trade agreement, they would have to go to a Vietnamese court as well. In other words, the great deal for corporations is only for corporations everyone else is left out.
Giving foreign corporations special rights to challenge our laws outside of our legal system would be a bad deal for America. Sign my petition to say no to ISDS.
Opposing ISDS isnt a partisan issue even your Tea Party relatives should be worried about this dangerous provision:
Conservatives who believe in US sovereignty should be outraged that ISDS would shift power from American courts, whose authority is derived from our Constitution, to unaccountable international tribunals.
Libertarians should be offended that ISDS effectively would offer a free taxpayer subsidy to countries with weak legal systems.
And progressives should oppose ISDS because it would allow big multinational corporations to weaken labor and environmental rules.
If a final TPP agreement includes Investor-State Dispute Settlement, the only winners will be multinational corporations. Join me in saying No to ISDS.
Thank you for being a part of this,
(I signed it.)

Last Week: Review
At the Precipice
President Obama met with congressional leaders to avoid going over the fiscal cliff—the $600 billion of automatic spending cuts and tax increases that take effect on Jan. 1. Obama was "optimistic" a deal could be reached in time to keep the economy from tipping into recession. Senate leaders, who called the meeting "constructive," were working to craft a bill by Sunday. But Obama said he will push for a Senate floor vote if leaders fail to agree, to avert a tax increase. Ratings agency Fitch warned that odds rose it would strip the U.S. of its triple-A status without a deal. Stocks fell; bond prices rose.
Debt-Ceiling Dance
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said in a letter that the U.S. will hit the debt ceiling on Dec. 31, but that he would take "extraordinary measures" to delay—for about two months—a U.S. default.
No Yen for Currency
The yen fell 85.63 against the U.S. dollar, the lowest in 27 months, as fresh moves were seen from the Japanese government newly headed by Shinzo Abe. Japan's finance minister, Taro Aso, told Geithner by phone he worried about a yen rebound, and said the government will use monetary easing and other actions to fight deflation.

Leaked parts may show pill-shaped dual-LED flash for Apple's 'iPhone 5S'With Apple's next iPhone expected to feature a dual-LED flash for better illumination in photos, a newly leaked part may show the pill-shaped design where those two flash modules will reside.
Parts purporting to show the top glass portion of the back of Apple's "iPhone 5S" were published on Monday by Nowhereelse.fr. The component shows space for a camera lens, a rear-facing mic, and a larger space for LED flash, elongated from a circle to more of a pill shape.
Leaked schematics obtained by AppleInsider in June showed that the "iPhone 5S' will feature the larger window to the right of the camera lens and rear microphone, covering two LED flash components. The current iPhone 5 features a single LED flash.
While rumors of dual LED flash in the next iPhone have persisted for months, there has been no evidence in the way of hardware leaks, making the pictures published Monday more significant. An alleged "iPhone 5S" camera module shown last week had a separate LED flash component, which was not included in the leak.
In addition to doubling the flash capabilities of the camera, Apple is also rumored to upgrade the camera to a 12-megapixel sensor, offering higher quality images. There have also been claims of advanced high-dynamic range pictures and 120-frames-per-second video recording for super slow-motion capabilities.
On Topic: iPhone
- Apple embarks on wave of new battery-related job hires, targets iOS improvements
- Alleged 'iPhone 6c' rear shell suggests Apple will repackage iPhone 5s parts
- BlackBerry sells just 1.6M smartphones in Q4 as software, services grow

identify fig tree (photo's included)
captionAugust 19, 2013
I want to start propagating cuttings from my fig tree,but I am not sure wat species it is.
I have included photo's to see if someone can help me.
All the edible figs are species Ficus carica. Maybe you want to know what cultivar it is? There is a Fruit forum here and a Fig forum both of which are more lively than this one and might be able to give you an answer.
Are those figs fully mature? They seem very small.
Here is a link that might be useful: Fig Forum

Sam Mendes is in talks to direct another Bond film, according to Deadline.
With his debut 007 effort now the biggest Bond film of all time, no surprise to hear Sony Pictures and MGM want the "Skyfall" director to reprise his directing duties for the 24th Bond film, which John Logan is currently writing. Mendes was a no-go there for a while, because of his commitments to the theatre, but he and the series' producers have got back in touch and presumably found a way and a window to make a return possible.
Ang Lee, Nicholas Winding Refn and Christopher Nolan had all been mooted as prospective Bond 24 directors in recent weeks. With Mendes ("American Beauty", "The Road to Perdition") looking set to return, the aforesaid trio will – if reports suggesting they were interested were true – have to wait a few years before putting their hand up for the job again.
Daniel Craig will reprise his role as James, James Bond.

Feeling pressed for time? Instead of ditching your workout, try cutting down the length of your next sweat session by kicking up the intensity. This 10-minute workout involves completing as many rounds as possible of the three combo moves listed below. This short yet challenging workout, which is based off of the five primary movement patterns—bend and lift, single-leg movements, pushing, pulling and rotation—can be done almost anywhere, anytime using just one weight of your choice. So choose a kettlebell, a dumbbell or a sandbag, set your timer for 10-minutes, clear some space and get ready to burn some serious calories.
Push-ups With a Twist (10 reps total)
Begin in a high plank position and place the hands wide to the edges of the mat or slightly wider. Slide your right leg under your body, threading it underneath the left arm to extend out beyond the left side of the mat. In this position bend the elbows, keeping them close to the sides of your body or allowing them to flare out slightly as you lower your body toward the floor. As you exhale press up to return the right leg back behind you to high plank position for one repetition. Repeat the same sequence to the opposite side for your second rep, completing a total of 10 reps as you alternate sides.
Sumo Squat/Curtsey-lunge Combo (10 reps total)
Begin standing with your feet slightly farther than shoulder-width apart, with the toes turned out just slightly (to 1 o'clock and 11 o'clock). Keep the core engaged and hinge at your hips as you bend your knees to sit back into a squat, working to lower the hips to the same height as the knees. To up the ante of this move, transition into a curtsey lunge by stepping the left foot back behind the right, bending both knees as you lower down for an added lower-body challenge. Step the left foot back to its starting position to complete one rep. Repeat the combo to opposite side, beginning by squatting at the center before performing a curtsey lunge by stepping the right foot behind the left for your second rep. Complete a total of 10 reps as you alternate sides.
Single-leg Dead Lift With Single-arm Row (10 reps total)
Stand with your feet together while holding the weight of your choice in your left hand. Keep your core engaged and hinge forward at the hips, picking your left foot off of the floor as the leg extends behind you. As you balance on your right leg, continue to bend forward and lower the weight toward the ground, keeping the hips and shoulders squared to the floor. As you prepare to rise back up to your starting position, perform a single-arm row with the left arm, drawing the elbow straight back as you bring the weight in line with your chest and then return to your starting position. Complete five reps on one side before switching to the other to complete a total of 10 reps.
After you complete this 10-minute workout take note of how many rounds you completed and see if you can beat that number the next time around!

June 7th Louisville Swap...Weather
I took a peek at the forecast....according to Yahoo....30% chance of scatterred thunderstorms. Hopefully the forecast will get better or the rain hold off till the afternoon/evening. Does everyone have directions to my house? If not, e-mail me and I will send them.
Marcia...now this is just a thought...considering how many folks are planning to come, I was wondering if your place might be small, to accommodate everything and what all everyone is planning to bring. I'm thinking whatever I have prearranged, I will leave in the vehicle, and then just shift the things to the appropriate members.
I was wondering if there might be a park close by with a shelter. I know Louisville has some great parks.
Just a thought...if we were at a shelter, it wouldn't mattered so much if it happened to shower. I'm thinking there are a couple of nice ones on the East End.
Just for further reference. There is a park in my neighborhood (Warwick Villa Park) with a shelter, port-a-potties, grills and easy to reach parking. It can be reserved through the city-St Matthews. It's located between New LaGrange Rd and Westport Rd.

Amending Leaf Compost
In my vegetable garden and flower beds I've been using city recycled leaves that are composted into what seems to end as soil without any mineral content. I do not see it as mulch. At first I used it to amend my hard clay/sand mix structure of my soil (original soil was old worked farmland and then the home builders got to it) and then I just replaced this with about a two foot layer of this organic material using it like topsoil. The worms and plants love it, but it can become compacted if stepped upon (even more after its wet) and a good portion of it will dry out quickly, if not protected from the sun becoming loose. My main concern is compaction; thinking that since it is mostly all organic I could mix some sand in it,adding mineral content which might help ease compaction. I also thought about using wood chips and bark mulch to help change its structure. I have used fall leaves and worked that into my vegetable garden's soil with no change. Any suggestions on amending?
Organic matter, those leaves, are not soil. Soil is composed of the mineral portion, the sand, silt, and clay particles, and that organic matter. Sand is the largest soil particle and has large spaces between soil particles that allow both water and nutrients flow through fairly quickly. Silt is much smaller in size as is clay and both tend to clump tightly together and prevent flow of water and nutrients. In addition to providing needed nutrients the purpose of organic matter in soils is to fill in the spaces between the sand particles so moisture and nutrients stay available to roots and to separate the silt and clay particles so moisture, nutrients, and plants roots can find each other.
Out in the woods behind the house I find Ma Nature keeps the soil there with organic matter in the range of 6 to 8 percent in the top 6 inches of soil provided we humans do not disrupt that.

A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don't know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an ox's or bear's, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|180 nights
Starting March 1, 2015 this property is available for full time, long term rental. Furnished or unfurnished. Includes garage. Great location, 2 short blocks to the beach yet secluded and quiet in the North redevelopment area. The home is the upstairs unit of a triplex in which all units are owned by me. This 2 bedroom plus large loft, 2 bath unit sleeps 8 comfortably. Open floor plan with everything you will need for your getaway.
Enjoy a glass of wine on your private rooftop deck or have a barbecue on the front patio and enjoy a fire around the patio table. This is a great family unit.
Three block walk to the pier or the downtown area for great restaurants or to catch the coaster to downtown San Diego and other local beach communities in between.
The harbor with fine restaurants is a short walk up the bike path. Enjoy live music or rent a stand up paddle board.
San Diego has lots to offer including LEGOLAND, Wild Animal Park, Del Mar Race Track, La Jolla Playhouse, Sea World, Old Town, Gas Lamp District, Petco Park, San Diego Zoo, and the Balboa Park Museums, casinos and wine country. But Oceanside has the best and biggest sand beaches.
Need more space? You can also rent the the one bedroom downstairs unit. Feel free to inquire.
Always plenty of parking in this neighborhood.
Also included: bicycles, boogies boards, beach chairs...everything you need to truly enjoy beach living.
I am a writer, and I enjoy the active life, including cycling and tennis. I grew up at the beach and thoroughly love the lifestyle. I have four kids and all of them still live near and enjoy the ocean.
Tricia Hopper purchased this bungalow in 2012
There are so many great things to do in San Diego. Oceanside has such great beaches. I love this place because I am not restricted by HOA's and I can provide my clients the best possible vacation experience.
Location! Location! Location! Only two blocks from the beach in North Oceanside where all of the surroundings homes are relatively new and the neighborhood is delightful.
My wife and I stayed at Tricia's Beach Bungalow for two months and enjoyed every minute of it. So did our occasional overnight guests, including our grandchildren. The unit is sunlit and spacious, comfortable and ideally located within easy walking distance of the beach, the Oceanside Pier and the harbor. Access to I-5 is only three blocks away, making it very convenient for trips up and down the coast. We spent a lot of time at the Thursday Farmers Market which is an easy walk and sells mostly agricultural and food items in the morning and fully cooked street food in the evening. Happily, the unit came complete with all that we needed for our visit, including a fully stocked kitchen and beach chairs and toys for kids. We often bicycled from the unit which is located less than two blocks from the bike trail . This was easy since the unit comes equipped with 5 bicycles. Tricia is a very personable and caring host who always made sure we had what we needed and offered tips on local restaurants and places of interest. She responded to our emails very quickly. We're delighted that we found this rental unit and would definitely consider staying there again.
March 2014
Hi Tricia-
I checked out a day early because there was just one problem after another at this rental. We had a repair person there half of the days that we were there. Besides the furnace pilot light requiring to be lit by my husband the blinds were replaced in a very timely manner. The faucet in the kitchen was replaced the next day. However, the problems kept coming. The microwave is on the fritz. It arches and sparks above the top ceiling panel and smelled like smoke so we, of course, could not use it. There were many spiders in this unit.
The biggest problem is that this unit was filthy. My kids feet were black anytime they went without shoes and socks. The tile flooring was sticky in many spots and there are just filthy spots, including the grout.
The kitchen cabinets have food and other "stuff" splattered on the sides of them and doors. We wiped some off and got sick of cleaning other peoples dirt. The refrigerator handle was sticky and my husband had to clean it. When you open the refrigerator door the bottom of the refrigerator is filthy. The dishwasher is the same with filth on the sides and bottom.
The main bathroom smells so badly of urine that my husband tried several time cleaning it with Clorox clean up that we had to go buy. We removed the two rugs from it and placed them on the front porch to get some air. They smelled so badly of urine.
The master bathroom has caked on filth around the base of the sink. You can tell it has not had a deep cleaning in some time. The rug for it, I assume, is the one we found hanging over the back deck area.
I encourage you to go look at this unit. We have left it in BETTER shape than we found it and it is still filthy. I could not take another day of my kids having black feet from other people's filth.
Deposit was half of what we put down, the sink faucet that broke was taken out of it at $250.00. What a crock. I should not have to be on the phone constantly during my vacation to get things fixed. Also, I do not think that it is acceptable to keep having repair/cleaning people coming and going, which this would have required. The reason we rented this is so we could have a secure area for our belongings.
We rented this bungalow plus the one bedroom apartment downstairs. Perfect location -- central to many tourist attractions -- and the beach and pier, as well as many restaurants and shopping) are within a short walking distance. The units are as nice and well maintained as the pictures show, the parking is ample, and the owner is wonderful to work with. We can't wait to go back. Thanks, Tricia!
Tricia was very quick to answer any questions I had regarding the condo. It was easy to get to and close to amenities and the beach.
This was the first "Family" vacation that we had done, it included my children and grandchildren. I had never used a website to find a place to stay, but this turned out extremely well. The unit looked exactly like the pictures and description was spot on. Several times during our stay my kids and grandkids walked down to the beach, which is so close, and enjoyed during the early morning hours. The boogy boards were used by all, which made our time at the beach more enjoyable. We were so close to downtown Oceanside and everything else that was needed it was great. We would definetly recommend this unit to our friends and family and would choose to stay here again, the next time we want to be at the beach.
We had a fantastic holiday in Oceanside. I would most definately recommend this rental to everyone. The directions to the property were brilliant and so easy to access. A very spacious property with comfy beds and settees, plenty of towels and equipment. Barbecue and outside space ideal for the hot evenings.The laundry facilities and cooking area took the hassle out of everyday chores. Location really good for all the theme parks, we visited Disney, Universal Studios, San Diego Zoo, Legoland and Sea World. We also ventured across to Mexico which was excellent. Within walking distance of gorgeous beaches and pier, plenty of lovely walks. Thank you Tricia for making our Dream Holiday come true.
Tricia was very helpful and available. We had a wonderful stay. The house was just like the photos. It was clean and had everything we needed. I think we could have used one more hand towel in the kitchen though. :) We would highly recommend this property to others. We loved having Pappy's market right down the street. She had boogie boards, chairs, fire pit, wood, bikes, everything we needed! The beach was about 2 and half blocks away. Having the washer and dryer came in very handy! Thanks Tricia. We'd love to stay again.
This property is situated in the ideal location for enjoying everything that San Diego has to offer. Oceanside has beautiful beaches, great restaurants and a train station right downtown to get you to other areas of San Diego.

Don't cling to cursive writing

For all the new things that schools will be called on to teach under the soon-to-be-implemented Common Core curriculum standards, it's a skill that has been omitted that is causing controversy: cursive writing. Good old script penmanship isn't part of the standards, which have been adopted by 45 states.
Several states have kept requirements for cursive instruction in place, but many others appear ready for its demise. The handwriting may be on the wall.
That's OK. States and schools shouldn't cling to cursive based on the romantic idea that it's a basic skill whose disappearance would be a cultural tragedy. Of course, everyone needs to be able to write without computers, but longhand printing generally works fine. Many of today's young adults, even though they were taught cursive, have abandoned it in favor of printing. Cursive writing plays a role in brain and overall academic development, but others disagree and say what the studies actually show is that any form of hand lettering, including print, engages more of the brain than keyboarding does.
When society adds new skills and new knowledge to the list of things public schools teach, some other items have to come off the list. Otherwise, the result is a curriculum that is a mile wide and an inch deep.Cursive might be one skill that can be painlessly dropped to make way for new ones.

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 180,000overall rating 9 of 10rating details
Pros: "will absolutely scare you from 0-60 mph"
Cons: "always use 100% gasoline; MILEAGE, MILEAGE, MILEAG"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9
"My Silverado has been a dream; the only nightmare is the fuel economy in stop-and-go driving. If you want to calculate the mileage of the 6.0 vortec, think of the hour meter on a tractor. It's similar to that. She gets approximately the same gallons per minute of use, regardless if you are doing 75mph on the freeway or 7.5mph on a dirt road. Other than that I highly recommend the Chevy Silverado 2500 with towing package."

"Bought this new in April 2001. This a lb7 duramax diesel. At 120,000 miles injectors go bad and gm would not cover $5200 for this repair in 2008. 6 wheel bearing repairs 4 lhf and 2 rhf. Cost $2400.00 total . Water pump repair $700 in 2009. Computer goes out $500 2011. Water pump is leaking and head gasket is bad $ 4000 June 2013. Another wheel bearing going bad $500. This is the worst chevy truck that I have ever bought. Being a gm owner all my life I find it unbelievable that gm would not stand behind the quality of their product after they promoted this truck as the best truck ever. The diesel motor and Allison transmision costs $7200.00 more than the gas when you buy the truck . Put over $ 15000 in maintenance cost on this truck with a diesel motor. Not worth it ."
