[BIG UPDATE]: I've updated the title and added the sign "closed" so you know the giveaway is C-L-O-S-E-D! I thought it was enough saying there was already a winner, showing you the screenshot of the random number generator... but not. You're driving me nuts. This journal entry keeps being faved and there's people noting me to know when the giveaway will be closed so I can say who the winner is. If you can't read even a single title, don't expect me to reply to those notes telling you what's already been here for almost a month.
Sorry if you think I'm being rude, but everything's got a limit.
[UPDATE]: Good morning everyone, it's 7:11 on the morning here on Spain and already Monday in half of the world. As I said, I'll be using random.org to pick a winner. Please, don't post a comment or send me a note telling me you're not in

So im pretty green to cloning recipes from taste,in fact this would be the first beer ive tried to reproduce. My buddys wedding is coming up and hes tasked me with building him a bachelor party beer similar to allagash white which ive only had once but it is outstanding. Has anyone brewed this before??
The beer called Wit Power in the Wheat and Rye subforum is supposed to be a clone. I can't say, because mine is only 10 days in the bottle. At bottling, there was a very strong flavor, I think of coriander, that at that stage did not appeal to me. I'll know more in 3 weeks.
There is also a recipe from rob in Brew like a Monk. It suggests using " secret spice" which many believe to be chamomile. Also, it was recently posted in this forum that the bottle conditioning yeast is in fact the primary strain.
Allagash White is a basic (and well brewed) Belgian Wit. It is likely spiced with chamomile in addition to the coriander and orange peel typical in Wits.
In Brewing Classic Styles Jamil outlines a basic wit recipe and how to spice it with coriander, orange peel and chamomile. I would suggesting seeking it out.

Actor Robert Downey Jr will be welcoming a new girl in his life. The "Iron Man" star recently confirmed that he and his wife, Susan, are expecting their second child, a baby girl, in November.
The 49-year-old actor excitedly shared the news about his wife's pregnancy to his fans and followers on Facebook and Twitter. Additionally, Robert Downey Jr had a unique way of breaking the good news on the social media sites.
"Yo. Susan. Me. Baby. Girl. November. Scorpio?" the actor posted on his Twitter account @RobertDowneyJr on Thursday, July 10. The E!Online report noted down that the couple's second child will have the same zodiac sign as her mother which is Scorpio while the proud actor father is an Aries.
Afterwards, Robert Downey Jr made the announcement on his Facebook page with a witty message. "Um. I don't know if it's a 'man's world', but I'm certain women run it. Susan and I are therefore delighted to announce we are expecting a baby. Girl. November. rdj," the actor's Facebook post read.
The baby girl will be the second child for Robert and Susan after welcoming son Exton Elias Downey on Feb 7, 2012. The baby will be the "Iron Man" actor's third child but his first daughter.
Robert's first born child is Indio Falconer Downey with his ex-wife Deborah Falconer. Last July, the 20-year-old made headlines after getting arrested for possession of cocaine and drug paraphernalia.
Robert and Susan met while working on the 2003 film "Gothika." Robert Downey Jr starred in the film together with Halle Berry and Penelope Cruz while Susan Nicole Levin was the film's producer at that time. The couple tied the knot on Aug 27, 2005.
According to the LA Times report, Robert Downey Jr jokingly told host Jay Leno back in Dec 2011 that Susan's pregnancy with Exton Elias had been tougher on him than with her when it came to the hormones, mood stuff and nausea. When asked about what kind of father he wanted to be, the actor revealed that he does not want to be a hero to his son.
"I would like to be a very real human being. That's hard enough... Hero, to me, is not applicable to the human experience," Downey shared to Esquire.
Yo. Susan. Me. Baby. Girl. November. Scorpio?

The Great Garden Challenge - Anglesey Abbey
I like an easy life; the sun on my back, well-behaved weeds and a garden fitted with wall-to-wall perfect tilth. Instead I get iron-willed weeds and fifty shades of clay with a few bits of ironmongery thrown in for painful spade-jarring.
Digging clay isn't The Great Garden Challenge though; nor am I planning to scramble up and down mountains, camel it across The Sahara, or make some unspeakable effort on behalf of my abs. My challenge involves industrial quantities of tea, cake and gossip. For I have pledged to visit 50 gardens with 50 different people or groups of people in a year. Tough, isn't it?
|Sunshine and Viburnum
Training for this Herculean task has been demanding. Exhaustive research involving salivating over beautiful garden photos was taxing enough without the arduous trial runs I endured in order to hone the vital skills of packing supplies (money) and equipment (camera).
It hasn't all been plain sailing: one friend was refused entry to a garden thereby rendering the visit invalid, and I missed a tour when my chickens were attacked by dogs just as I was about to leave the house. Then there is the ongoing issue of my garden-loathing offspring. When asked where she would like to go on holiday, my youngest child googled this:
Is there any hope?
On a positive note, The Great Garden Challenge is an opportunity to catch up with friends and meet other gardeners. A group of friends who live nearly 100 miles away from me came along for my first ever visit to Anglesey Abbey, where The Winter Garden is in full swing.
|Chimonanthus praecox 'Luteus'
The design of The Winter Garden makes inspecting little Iris, Crocus and Galanthus flowers or stroking the bark of Acer griseum so easy. The scent of the great swathes of Sarcococca growing by the path is stronger than ever thanks to the enclosed, sheltered nature of this area. It is as if the plants are coming to us, rather than us having to seek them out. So often we scatter our winter flowers around the garden, filling gaps hither and thither, but having them all cheek by jowl and sited by a path adds to the wow factor of these early beauties and it must be a flashing fast food sign for any pollinators on the lookout for sustenance. It is a lesson I will apply to my own garden.
Rising to the challenge of visiting Anglesey Abbey's wonderful
Winter Garden with dear friends (can't imagine why I'm laughing)
Unexpected turns in gardens are always good fun. I will never forget the first time I clapped eyes on the Desert Wash at East Ruston Old Vicarage and yelped with surprise (I am not the coolest, calmest garden visitor). At Anglesey Abbey, the way in which The Winter Garden path opens out into a grove of Betula utilis var. jaquemontii is a quieter, but nonetheless lovely surprise. There is an other-wordliness to this area and I am delighted to see that saplings have been planted to extend it. I am not sure what unexpected turn I shall plan for my garden; a patch of flint free soil would be surprise enough at the moment.
|Betula utilis var. jacquemontii
So The Great Garden Challenge is underway. My brain is already reeling with ideas for my own garden and there is a long way to go. It was a lovely day out, but physically demanding on our jaws and we had to stop for no fewer than three coffee/lunch/tea breaks. Tough times indeed, judging by the big smiles on my lovely friends' faces.

A New Breed of Supergardener
I love the winter garden with its skeletal structure and great nostril-loads of scent. On a bright, frosty day what could be better? Actually, quite a lot. The problem is that although I delight in the great outdoors, I absolutely cannot stand being cold. In no particular order, my pet hates are: cold hands, cold feet, and cold hurting ears. It takes me back to hockey at school, only then I had cold blotchy knees to add to my misery.
|Luscious Lonicera
I don't like to show off, but these days I am blessed with a fine collection of thermal undergarments, a woolly hat, lined boots and an array of mismatched gloves. Hacking icy flints from the borders and untangling bare-root hedging plants which have knitted themselves together (presumably for warmth), I am an advertisement for wearing everything at once. To put it succinctly: I am a walking wardrobe.
Eranthis hyemalis
This whole business of being so cold that I am barely able to move for all the layers of clothing has got me wondering why gardeners haven't evolved over time. We have been cultivating our plots for thousands of years and while I appreciate that many gardeners of the past might have inhabited warmer areas of the globe, there must have been a fair few green-fingered pioneers who ventured out on a frosty morning to prod a stick at a patch of cold earth.
Frosty Phlomis italica
If we were climbing plants, we would by now have adopted aerial roots or adapted our leaves into tendrils, so why have we not developed ever-warm extremities? I think that the answer might lie with the cooks of the world. We have been burning food for longer than we have been cultivating gardens, so where are the chefs' heat-resistant hands and unsliceable fingers?
Cooks' and gardeners' adaptations might be mutually beneficial. I am no chef, but I wouldn't mind having heatproof hands for those occasions when I forget about hot pan handles; and I am sure that chefs could adjust gardeners' adaptations to suit their own purposes (although I'm struggling with adaptation number 8 below).
Were I a time traveller, I would have a word with our ancestors and ask them to initiate a few improvements so that all gardeners nowadays would be blessed with:
Echinops with an ice cap

Were I a time traveller, I would have a word with our ancestors and ask them to initiate a few improvements so that all gardeners nowadays would be blessed with:
1. Constantly warm hands, feet and ears
2. Thorn-resistant skin
3. An ache-free back
4. The ability to prune with the scissor action of the fingers of both hands, thereby adding hours to the gardening year which might otherwise be lost searching for secateurs
5. A dripless nose
6. The ability to hover mid-air while pruning, thereby rendering ladders unnecessary
7. A reviving stare which rejuvenates listless plants and makes old seeds viable
8. Toes which double as hoes.

On The Menu in February for Bees
I grew up in a hospitable home and while my culinary skills may never set the world alight (indeed they might arguably give the world a dicky tummy), my desire to replicate this wonderful part of my childhood extends beyond the dining table and out into the garden. I don't mean that I am in a permanent state of barbecuing, although that would be fun, rather that I like to offer food to wildlife, not just in the feeders we have dotted around the garden, but also in the form of the plants I choose to grow.
I have seen bees or butterflies during every month in my garden, so I have challenged myself to continue to increase the quantity and variety of forage on offer all year round. It is the most wonderful way to garden.
|Anemone blanda
|Choisya ternata
In any year there will be the rule breakers - those plants which strut their stuff irrespective of the fact that it isn't their turn to take centre stage. Choisya ternata appears to have given up on the concept of waiting in the wings and has reinvented itself as a year-round flowerer, as has Pyracantha. This is all marvellously above the call of duty, but who is to say that they will manage the same generosity of flowering period in the future?
The pollinators' pantry is surprisingly well-stocked in February and it contains too many wonderful plants to focus on here, so I have selected three glorious February flowers which the bees and I couldn't live without.
|Iris reticulata
|Gorgeous Galanthus
February without snowdrops is like Friday without chocolate (or any other day of the week in my humble opinion). Good old Galanthus nivalis not only raises our spirits in the darkest days of winter, these little beauties provide a valuable source of quality pollen. They flower for weeks on end, probably because pollination can be a bit hit-and-miss at this time of year given the weather and the reduced number of pollinators on the block. But when the weather is right, bees will be busy working those snowdrops and lifting our spirits even higher. If you don't already grow snowdrops, now is the time to order some and plant them 'in the green'.
|Crocus tommasinianus
The Crocus lawn is coming into flower now. It is only small, but it is a valuable source of nectar and pollen for bees. Bumblebees are always the most entertaining foragers; I love to see them dive headfirst into the flowers of Crocus tommasinianus. Crocus flowers close at night and bees will lie swathed in the petals until morning when they can enjoy breakfast in bed (such is the life of a queen bee). If you are able to grow Crocus and have not yet tried a mass planting of them, please think about adding Crocus tommasinianus to your autumn bulb list so that you, too, can sit with a warm drink on a sunny winter day and watch bees. I can't recommend this pastime highly enough.
Garden blogs are usually swamped by photos of Hellebores at this time of year and for good reason: they are an all-round fabulous plant. Not only are they beautiful; their evergreen glossy foliage makes a stylish weed-suppressing ground cover and best of all, they are a valuable source of nectar for honey bees and queen bumblebees. Queen bumblebees can hibernate for up to six months. Consequently, they wake in desperate need of food. If there are no flowers and no nectar, these bees may die. Fortunately the plants which make all the difference to the bees happen to look wonderful too. Isn't gardening with wildlife in mind wonderful?
You may rightly have spotted that the photos in this post were taken in the dark. Unfortunately I was so busy digging that I forgot to take any pictures until sundown. I am linking this post to http://www.maydreamsgardens.com/, where you will find plenty more posts written by bloggers who don't wait until dusk to photograph their plants. I am now heading over to May Dreams Gardens to see if I can steal some menu ideas for next February. Happy GBBD.

Three Dogs; Two Chickens; and a Lost Garden Visit
I had been looking forward to joining fellow garden lovers today for a visit to the Cambridge University Botanic Garden, but as I picked up my coat to leave the house, three dogs came into our gated and fenced garden and attacked our chickens.
Despite wintry weather, our hens have been laying. This morning as I let them out to wander around our garden, I stopped for a moment to admire Herby's golden feathers shining in the winter sun. Now Herby is in a box in my office. I am bathing her wounds and hoping that she is not in too much pain. The day out I had been looking forward to for weeks has gone ahead without me. Why? Because someone failed to look after their dogs properly. The owner of these animals is responsible for turning a relaxing, enjoyable Sunday into a day of stress and pain and sadness.
I hope that our beautiful chicken makes a full recovery. I also hope that the owner of the dogs takes better care of their animals in the future.
Thank you to those on Twitter and Facebook for your prompt advice so generously and thoughtfully given. You illustrated the very best side of the power of social media. Thank you.

Garden Gatecrashers
I have been digging up dandelions with roots like tree trunks and I have come to the conclusion that dandelions are the glitter of the weed world. When we are children, glitter is fun and we scatter it hither and thither. Then we grow up. Suddenly a fleck of glitter becomes a source of irritation and we realise that one fabulous fling with the sparkly stuff over Christmas will still be haunting us in mid-July.
I am ashamed to admit that once I was the parent in charge of cutting and sticking, I swiftly replaced tubes of glitter with glitter glue, which still managed to adhere itself to the end of my nose all day long making me look a tad less professional that I might have liked, but at least it didn't turn up unbidden on the sofa in the height of summer. Even worse, my children were discouraged from using dandelions as time pieces as I explained rather dryly about them being weeds. What a miserable parent.
Now I am wondering where my love for dandelions went. Let's face it, they might be considered attractive; they are valuable to pollinating insects; they have pretty seed heads; they are robust; they add year-round interest; they are rich in nutritional value; they make a handy, if unreliable time piece; and children love them. If this were the description of a border plant, we would all be chomping at the bit to grow Taraxacum officinale.
My new year's resolution is to learn to love my weeds. It's a tough task in the case of the dandelion, but as I try to dislodge those almighty tap roots from between two bricks (how do they always do that?) I am discovering a grudging respect for them. Learning to love, or at least respect my weeds is making the issue of tackling them less fraught. Whether you view weeds as a challenge; a mildly irritating addition to your long list of gardening tasks; or an overwhelming threat requiring you to rush indoors and put on the kettle (not as a mode of weed control, but because we Brits like a cup of tea in a crisis) in the words of Arnold Schwarzenegger, they "will be back". After all, one year's seed is seven years' weeds and while you might not dream of allowing a single weed to set seed in your garden, your neighbour might be less than vigilant in the weeding department. Then there is the messy issue of seeds dispersed by birds, like bramble.
Ah blackberries.... there is so much to love about the humble bramble! Shocking as it might sound, there are weeds about which I actively do nothing (this is my kind of activity). Take nettles, I know they can be a pain, but I always like to keep a few patches for butterflies along with a lovely clump of thistles. I adore thistles! A wayward thistle is easy enough to weed out, but when the thistle patch is smothered in butterflies, it is a joy to behold. It doesn't stop there (the tidier gardeners among you may wish to lie down at this point). I leave thistles to seed so that they can be swooped upon by marauding finches.
I live in the countryside and my thistle patch upsets no one. I would not necessarily encourage thistles everywhere and while I am learning to love my weeds, I am always mindful that there are some weeds which mustn't be ignored. Some of them call for immediate action and official notification depending upon where you live. Thankfully the majority of weeds don't fall into this category and it is this group of garden gatecrashers which I have this year resolved to love or respect.... or at least to stop calling them rude names.
Of course, weeds shouldn't be too much of a problem until they start into active growth in spring, so I am hoping to be able to stick to my resolution until at least the end of January.

Wishing you a very happy new year. May all your gardens flourish and may all your pests be little ones. Oh... that doesn't work. Happy new year anyway.
All the photos are of weeds I loved in my garden last year.... and a dandelion.

Snow-free Hawaii!!
We were fortunate to have escaped the Northeast blizzards this past week, trading them for a beautiful vacation home on this magnificent island. The accommodations were beyond expectation-we have no suggestions for enhancement, a rare finding when one walks into a new abode. The area provided the right mix of activities, beach 69, Volcanoes National Park, the Cherry Blossom Festival and Hawi complemented by an island pace that crept into psyche rather quickly. We know others will find this spot enjoyable (what is not to like?). Hope to return someday soon. Dave, Nancy, Julie and Eric. Mahalo

Mitch Payne
The stay was absolutely amazing would recommend this property to anyone. Girls loved riding the bikes to the beach and just the overall quality of the home made our staying very relaxing just what we needed. The homeowner should be applauded thank you. Thanks 360
Property Manager Response:
What a precious picture! Thank you for staying with us, we are so happy you and your girls enjoyed the bicycles! WaterSound West is perfect for cruising around on bikes. We would love to have you all back again! Thank you Payne Family!
Jason Martin
The house was absolutely beautiful! We loved the lay-out, especially the 2 large master bedrooms and open kitchen & living area. Also, Water Sound West is the hidden gem on 30A. It is great to be able to enjoy the amazing restaurants at Rosemary and Seaside area, without dealing with the crowds on the beach. The convenient location, quiet and secluded beach, and the large resort style community pool makes this a unique community and ideal vacation spot. We will definitely be back!
Property Manager Response:
Beautiful picture! We are happy that you loved this home and had a relaxing time! It is so nice to almost have the beach to yourself this time of year. We can't wait to have you back, thank you!
Robyn Davis
We loved the house! It was beautiful and had absolutey everything we needed. Everything was perfect. We will definitely return.
Property Manager Response:
We have to just start off by saying WOW! This photo is amazing! This truly is a lovely home and a fantastic place to just get away from it all. Thank you so much for staying with 360 Blue and thank you for taking a moment to share your experience. Nothing makes us happier than a happy guest. We hope to see you at the beach soon!
Nikki West
This place was awesome. Nice bike ride to the beach with amazing views and perfect landscaping. The beach was beautiful and calm not overrun by the "wild crowd". I enjoyed my stay and would definatly come back.
Property Manager Response:
But first, let me take a selfie! As far as selfies go, this one is pretty epic. We just LOVE it! You really can't beat this serene peddle to the beach. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and we would love to have you back!
Jessica Rutledge
Beautiful home - top of the line everything. We enjoyed the porches, the bikes and the kids loved having their own TVs on the bunks. The pool and beach areas were never crowded. The home is a 3-5 minute bike ride to the pool, and another 3-5 minutes to the beach. Very beautiful boardwalks to beach access. Definitely bring or rent a bike trailer if you have little ones that aren't bike savy. It will be a lonnngggg walk without it.
Property Manager Response:
Awesome sand gator! Looks like you guys definitely enjoyed some fun in the sun! You simply could not ask for a better or more enjoyable route to the beach making every beach trip amazing before, during and after the actual time spent at the beach. We are so thrilled that you had an enjoyable stay and we hope you'll be back for may more!
Nancy Blackmon
The house was beautiful! Close to shopping and great restaurants. Amenities are top notch. We would absolutely stay here again!
Property Manager Response:
It certainly looks like someone had fun at the beach! This really is an absolutely beautiful property with no details spared by the owner. You are definitely right about the location being so close to everything you need, yet peaceful and quiet when you just want to get away from it all. We are so thrilled that you enjoyed your stay and we can't wait to have you back for your next beach adventure!
Brad Logan
I spent a long weekend at this house in September 2013 along with four other friends. I felt like I was in someone's home rather than a standard rental property. There was plenty of space (bedrooms, bathrooms, etc) and it was very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. We loved the fact that there was a pool in the neighborhood since we didn't go to the beach every day. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. We will definitely rent this property again!
Brad Logan
We will be coming back here! Beautiful home, great area close to Panama City, Destin and easy walk to beach. Nice big pool and yet quiet. Loved the big TV's in all the rooms, especially in the bunk beds and the 65 inch in the living room was great to watch NBA playoffs!
Property Manager Response:
Love, love, LOVE your photo! Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing! This truly is such an amazing place to enjoy the area - convenient to everything yet quiet and comfortable. All the little details were attended to at this home making it the ultimate home away from home. Can't wait to have you back!
Brad Logan
Great home! We loved the two back decks and especially the bed swing! Furnishings are top notch and very comfortable. Location is excellent with huge pool but in quiet neighborhood. Definitely looking forward to returning!
Joanie Jackson
The house is beautiful, comfortable, and very clean. It had everything that we needed. It is a great layout for 2 families to share - our friends joined us at end of the week. We were a little disappointed by the construction that is right next door to this location. It did not allow for lazy mornings as the sounds of hammering served as our alarm clock most of the week. The beach & pool are bit of a hike from the house but bikes made it fun and convenient. 360 Blue cocierge was very prompt in coordinating bike rentals & tee times.
Property Manager Response:
Thank you for sharing your feedback and adorable photo! We are sorry to hear you were disappointed in the construction/ It is very important to the area for growth but the process can certainly be an annoyance to our visitors. This should be mostly cleared up by the same time next year. Hopefully you will come back to see us! Maybe we can leave that alarm clock out this time!

Lovely film with a great message,
This review is from: Morning Glory [DVD] (DVD)
I did not know anything about this film before I watched it- I just knew that the lovely, Rachel McAdams, had the main role and basically all of the movies that she has been in, she is amazing, so I could not wait to see it! I thought it was a very sweet film with a great message: "hard work really pays off!" I also thought that Harrison Ford was hilarious. I do not think I have seen any of the films he has starred in before, so I was pleasantly surprised!

"High school isn't what is used to be." High school students are inundated with grades, sports, work, volunteering, activities, and sometimes a little old fashioned teenage fun. Most students tend to take on more than they can mentally and physically handle, but want to prove they can do it. When a high school student shows signs of struggling it is important to get them the help they need as soon as possible. If your high school student begins wondering where they left their books, complaining they don't have enough time to study, exclaiming the teacher isn't fair, begins to say they just don't understand or it's too complicated, it's time. It's time to call for help. A simple call to hire a tutor now can make all the difference later. A tutor well versed in working with high school students understands these students are juggling a lot and they have ways to help the student stay focused, organized, well-prepared, and achieve their academic goals. Call or email us to day and we will help you find the right tutor for your student

VIDEO WEDNESDAY: Parks head south to CMJ
A ton of great Boston bands are headed south to CMJ for showcases [1] this weekend-- my top pick being The Outlaw Roadshow [2]. Ahead of Parks [3] trip to the New York City college radio festival/free-for-all, the band (well 2/5ths of the band) stopped by to show us all what we'd be missing (check out Parks NYC itinerary here [4]).
Parks is part of a handful of Boston acts who have landed recent opening spots for national artists' shows at the Sinclair, Paradise and House of Blues. I give the locals a year until they're headlining a 500-room venue here at home. Until, then...

On Monday, the state auditor's report, which was ordered by the Georgia General Assembly's Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) oversight committee, found that there are no deficiencies or improprieties in how the agency is handling its finances.
Despite the "woefully inaccurate allegations that were leveled against MARTA when the audit was requested," the agency made a net profit of $15 million as a result of the lease-in, lease-out deals that had been publicly encouraged by federal transit officials and approved by MARTA's board of directors, according to the agency.
The auditor's report pointed out that MARTA has successfully extricated itself from two-thirds of these lease arrangements and is working diligently to resolve those few which still remain in effect. Even in the worst-case scenario, MARTA will wind up with a net profit.
In a press release, MARTA said it is "pleased, but not surprised, that the state auditor has given us a clean bill of health," and that they are hopeful the results of the audit will give it and the state legislature a clean slate "upon which to discuss identifying sustainable funding sources for mass transit."
The CTfastrak transit system provides direct service to and from Waterbury, Cheshire, Southington, Bristol, Plainville, New Britain, Newington, West Hartford, Hartford, East Hartford and Manchester with routes that take advantage of the bus-only CTfastrak roadway.
ABQ RIDE is looking to model its plan after the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority's HealthLine, which is sponsored through a hospital partnership. Construction on the so-called ART system could begin in May 2016 with an in-service date of September 2017.
The service, which costs $6 a ride, asks riders to download the Leap app, creating an account, uploading a photo and adding a credit card that enables them to pay via a QR code.
Agencies ordering the company's products, which are now in at least half of all new U.S. and Canadian transit buses, include L.A. Metro, Chicago Transit Authority and New York City Transit.
The contract includes a firm order for 35 XN40 and 20 XN60 Xcelsior buses, with an option for another 150 XN40 and 100 XN60 over the next five years. All buses are to be powered by CNG.

Center Church & Crypt
The Congregational United Church of Christ, as it is more formally known, has stood on the New Haven Green since 1639. The current Georgian structure dates to 1812. Architect Ithiel Town incorporated large windows into the design to capture sunshine, as there was no heating system. A beautiful Tiffany window, installed in 1890, depicts the Rev. John Davenport leading the first service in the new colony. The historic crypt contains the remains of Benedict Arnold's first wife. There is a small burial ground behind the church, where regicide John Dixwell is laid to rest.

Learn about programs in naturopathic medicine, through which students learn how to treat medical conditions without using toxic chemicals or major surgery. Read about the training options at three accredited institutions, and find a list of other schools in the U.S. that offer formal education programs in naturopathic medicine.
School Overview
Programs in naturopathic medicine can lead to certificates or degrees in acupuncture, natural therapies or herbal medicine. The schools listed here are the only ones in the U.S. recognized by the Association of Accredited Naturopathic Medical Colleges. They include two natural health schools and a traditional university. Two of the schools offer degree programs that can lead to a Naturopathic Doctor credential.
Top Naturopathic Medicine Schools
1. Bastyr University in Kenmore, WA
Bastyr University is home to a cutting-edge research institute, a dispensary and several local clinics. The Bastyr Center for Natural Health allows graduate students in the natural medicine, nutrition and Oriental medicine programs to receive hands-on training in a number of areas. These include nutritional counseling, acupuncture and homeopathy. Bastyr also offers degree programs in herbal sciences, midwifery and several other natural healing therapies, as well as a certificate program in Chinese herbal medicine.
