Road Trip!!! and you're invited!
Grab your jacket, it's a crisp day in New England!
We're heading out to Sherburne Falls to see the Bridge of Flowers:
The Bridge of Flowers began in 1929 - a year after the trolley bridge was abandoned, the local garden group got a "great idea" :)
It was a walkable town with lots of places to window shop, and eclectic restaurants:
Time to head down to Stockbridge to see Berkshire Botanical Garden
We arrived to find that what was described as a Harvest Fair on the website, was actually the biggest event of the year for this part of the state....ACK! People looked at us funny as we ducked behind trade tents to observe the perennial borders....
If you've got a minute, enjoy a slide show!
Thanks for coming along,
Hey Saucy! Thanks for sharing your trip (like a mini-vacation for me) which is good, cause I'm still not back in the "real life" mode yet! :-)
That bridge of flowers is so cool and reminds me the first time I went to California. I was amazed to see so much lushness along the highways, plants growing over bridges, etc....I couldn't believe it, such a stark contrast to the city of Chicago...that is until Mayor Daley started encouraging all the planting here.
I love the dahlia/ageratum color combo too. Periwinkle! I just love that color of ageratum and never could think how I would describe the color.
Thanks for sharing all the beauty...
Hmm, Woody, I'm not sure about drainage! The "beds" were 4ft in width and there was an irrigation hose running along the fenced sides with a spigot ever so often (making me think that it was watered by helpers wielding hoses). The "beds" were mulched with composted bark mulch.
Glad you enjoyed the little getaway, Brenda. I think I remember periwinkle being my mother's favorite crayola color :)
Saucy....just checked out your slideshow. You had a beautiful day for the trip. So, I take it there was a no longer used railroad bridge that the community turned into a garden? Were the stores on the main street of Shelbourn Falls? Your camera is taking wonderful photos, which camera did you get again? LOVED the bee close up...you could just about count the hairs...[g]
Saucy, That is a lovely trip. Almost as nice as going myself. How great that it was such beautiful weather. All the pics are pretty, but the Bridge is extra nice.
The roadside color and the hills look very much like it does here when the colors are on. They haven't got that far yet this fall.
What a grand trip, Saucy! Thanks for taking us along. I, too, can't hear "Berkshires" without thinking of James Taylor. The colors and textures in your pictures are fabulous, and that bee shot is by far the best I've seen. It looks so fuzzy and cute!
The dahlia pictures are tempting me. I'm so terrible about getting them dug for storage in the fall. Lol, can't imagine why--what else could there possibly be to do on a farm in the fall??
Thanks for taking us along, it looks like you're having a wonderful time playing with that camera!
That was great! I loved the Berkshire Botanical Gardens. We visited them when we went to Tanglewood in... what year was that?
What a lovely trip. The bridge is a very cool idea. The rose garden we went to in Duluth last year is on top of the interstate.
I love the clarity of your closeups.
Thanks for the cardoon. I'll have to post a picture of the one I have in the potager. It has become monstrous.
Saucy -- So glad you got to see this. When I did most of my work in Massachusetts this was a frequent "getaway from the job" spot to stop. Never got close enough at this time of year to see what the put in, so Thank You for the closeups and taking us along!!

"Flying high, the memory of you takes me down, but for you I don't mind falling.Your love raised me to such a lofty height, that even as I reach my lowest point, I am still among the clouds."
Related quotes
"You did something to me, I don't know what it was but I do know that I don't want to lose you. You always keep a smile upon my face and I can act like myself because you accept me. You mean so much to me, the way you make me feel is just unexplainable. This is the happiest I've been in a awhile and I have to thank you for that. You just make it so easy to fall for you and believe me, I'm falling harder with each passing day."
"Who says you can't fall in love on your own? Whenever you listen to music, close your eyes... And then you find yourself falling in love. Love is everywhere, because God is."

A chatty, witty, detailed, person-centered take on how various countries or states fell victim to their "personal" weaknesses and set "themselves" up for financial failure. More of a personal opinion than a factual report, but it does make sense.
Should have been twice as long. Just when I had collected a lot of ideas and was starting to THINK about them, the book up and ended!!!! I did not like that at all. This demeaned the content. Caused me to reclassify the book as a sitcom or a reality show. I HAD thought I was listening to an entertaining documentary up to that point. Oh well, I guess that's Michael Lewis's product. Really had expected more.
Excellent narration though!
"lots of details about early hollywood"
interesting perspective on early life in los angeles.....nothing earth shattering though. well put together narrative using some real people's lives to illustrate the way the world was back then. not worth full price unless you are into this era. but a good listen if discounted.
"not for adults"
a book of internal thoughts by the son of a minister. plot = typical life events that are only new to the very sheltered. could be supportive for children going through loss. unsatisfying for thoughtful adults.
"Forgettable characters"
More distinctive characters, places, etc.
I couldn't tell if I had heard this book before or not it was so bland and similar to her other books.
I have listened to many already and hope for more memorable books from her.
I do enjoy the way Sue Grafton takes you through Kinsey's day. It's different and one can really get into it after a while.
"No good without Marie by your side"
There is nothing wrong with this approach if you can afford to have Marie, or someone like her, doing all the sorting with you. The book in itself will not help you to change your relationship to stuff. One point that stood out to me: Making a big change in a short period of time may really help a person keep stuff from piling up. Most of us need much longer to get it done and that may be why we backslide.
Doubt it.
Detached, distant, bland.
It's Marie telling you what worked when she was there with her clients.
Marie is a very extreme person when it comes to getting rid of her stuff. She has learned how to harness this and help others. But I can't pay to have Marie fly over from Japan nor can I channel her, so I can't use her technique.
"Best detective fiction series out there!"
The poetry, the passion expressed, the musings....so real, so rarely recorded anymore. The connections between people are gripping. The drama is great but the surroundings and customs are foreign which gives it all an edge.
Just comparing what the characters were doing to the 80s music with what I was doing......going back in time.....reflecting.......nice break from reality. I love the way the author is very realistic.
"Perfect graduation present!"
In the top 20%. It's a self-help book told by someone who learned it all the hard way. He tells the truth and sometimes it's pretty funny too. There are lots and lots of tips on how the world really works in here. Easy to read. Not guilt inducing. Gives you an edge up.
Going to a job interview in casual clothes and without a coat.
Emotion. Character.
"Wonderful stories."
I love the accents and the gentle tone of voice the reader gives to the main character. With audio you can close your eyes and envision the story.
Her lovely voice.
"The female equivalent of James Herriott!"
The book is fascinating and evokes what it was really like in post war Britain without being depressing.
"Open and honest autobiography"
Oh yes, it comes to life in audio.
Sonia's utter honesty and remarkable memory about her life.
This book is one to savor and think over.
Everyone should read this book. You will get a glimpse of a life you will most likely never have. It's inspirational. Makes you want to do your best and try hard at whatever you do.
"A dud"
Yes. Usually they are both excellent.
Accents, style.
I enjoyed seeing Americans through British eyes.
this book was like a firecracker that sparkled but never went off.
"not for the psychologically sophisticated"
JUST KIDS by Patti Smith.
her great accents make it more real.
the premise of the story IS impossible. the more you know about people the less you can go along with the premise. you have to suspend disbelief from the beginning and that ruins everything. i won't say more because I don't want to spoil it for those more naive than I. how this book ever got past the first editorial meeting i'll never know.
the author can write well and i enjoyed the parts where the group of 5 are living in and working on the old mansion in the country. but that's incidental to the main story line.
this book asks for a large investment of your time. if you have lived quite a bit of your life already, I'm afraid you won't enjoy this book because it will feel like a waste of your time.

Das Gupta offers an ethnography of seven South Asian organizations in the northeastern United States, looking at their development and politics as well as the conflicts that have emerged within the groups over questions of sexual, class, and political identities. She examines the ways that women's organizations have defined and responded to questions of domestic violence as they relate to women's immigration status; she describes the construction of a transnational South Asian queer identity and culture by people often marginalized by both mainstream South Asian and queer communities in the United States; and she draws attention to the efforts of labor groups who have sought economic justice for taxi drivers and domestic workers by confronting local policies that exploit cheap immigrant labor. Responding to the shortcomings of the state, their communities, and the larger social movements of which they are a part, these groups challenge the assumption that citizenship is the necessary basis of rights claims.

High school football: Bonneville, Canyon View hire new coaches for 2013
Two Utah high schools announced the hiring of new head football coaches on Tuesday.
Jared Afuvai has been tagged as the new coach at Bonneville High School while Canyon View named Larry "Robby" Robinson as its new coach.
Afuvai replaces Tyler Gladwell, who leaves the Bonneville program after one season, finishing with a 3-7 record.
Afuvai is a first-time head coach, but he's very familiar with the Bonneville program and its tradition. A 1990 graduate of Bonneville, he served as an assistant coach at his alma mater from 2004 to 2010.
"For me it's coming back home and being part of a program that was very close to me and really shaped who I became later in life. Very familiar with the community and the support and the traditions of Bonneville High School, and that is probably the most exciting part about being a head coach at Bonneville, carrying on that tradition," said Afuvai, who was a Deseret News first team all-stater in 1989.
Afuvai is Bonneville's fourth coach in the last four years, and bringing stability to the program is one of his main goals.
"The kids need to know that I'm going to be there. I'm there for the long run, I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to do whatever it takes to turn the program around," Afuvai said.
In addition to his years as an assistant at Bonneville, Afuvai also spent time as an assistant at Ben Lomond, Ogden and Weber since 1996. He was at Ogden the past two years.
Canyon's new coach replaces Alex Huxford, who spent five seasons at Canyon View, amassing a 7-40 record during that stretch.
Robinson, 61, has 37 years of head coaching experience in football, and he's also been a head coach in basketball, softball and track through the years. He won football state titles at three different schools — Casper, Wyo.; Mountain View, Wyo.; and Silverton, Ore.
He has a history of turning programs around. Prior to his arrival at Silverton in 1990, the program had a 6-72 in its previous 10 years but Robinson led it to the playoffs every year including a state title in 1991.
Last year at Clayton High in New Mexico, he took over a program that had gone 1-19 its previous two years and led it to a 7-5 record and a quarterfinal playoff appearance.
He hopes to do the same thing in Utah.
"We're going to work real hard, but we're going to make work tremendously fun, I know it sounds trite. The offense we run, there's nobody in the nation that runs it. Sort of gets people excited, it's an unbalanced veer attack," Robinson said.
At his previous stops, the excitement of the offense has helped get specialized athletes in other sports to come out for football, and he hopes to do that at Canyon View as well.

I can strongly recommend this place to people who look for something cozy, stylish, not typical. You feel more like at home, not like in a hotel. There is a common space for the guests where you can sit around big table, drink high quality coffee (free of charge) and relax.
The location is very good - walking distance to the city center, Sagrada Familia, very close to the train station and metro. The beach is 4 metro stops from there.

These apartments are clean and comfortable. We recommend that anyone who wants to feel as local residents of Barcelona. Thank you, Vivian. With best wishes, Asta. - Anonymous

How I Met Your Mother has already shown a Robin-Barney wedding "little ways down the road." Ted has already caught a glimpse of the woman in yellow umbrella. Why should it drag on for another season when the comedy is losing its fizzle now?
10 Reasons "How I Met Your Mother" Should Close the Book
1. Barney, the resident player who used to be all-sex-no-romance, has been love-struck three times already - Robin, Nora, and Quinn. He's turning into Ted Mosby, only a wackier version.
2. Marshall is no longer able to spend bro time with either Barney or Ted. In "Autumn of Break-ups," he's been turned into a sick girl wannabe.
3. Lily as a new mum can hardly get out of the apartment to show some dimension to her character. It would have been unnoticeable if she and Marshall did not appear in the past six episodes of the current season.
4. Ted has already had way too closures with Robin. Yet it seems there will be another "talk." He has realized too many times that they are not good for each other. It's really time to meet the mother.
5. The characters are growing older for all the things they're used to doing, i.e. hangouts at the bar, hangouts at the apartment, etc.
6. There have been enough flash forwards already. The "Farhampton" episode should be the last one. "Little ways down the road" is becoming overused as a story device.
7. Robin calls off her engagement with good guy Kevin. Then she gets a dummy boytoy. More episodes with the wrong ones will only make her character even more predictable and eventually, boring.
8. The "awkwardness" of the Ted-Robin-Barney triangle should be faced head on and overcome this season. Otherwise, the elephant will just keep coming back in the room.
9. Barney has relied on a real dog to be his "dawg." He is becoming a sad story. (Again, a Ted.)
10. Everyone has had too many serious crystallizing moments, the comedy is flying out the screen. Close the book while a lot of people are still laughing.
The CBS has enjoyed a very good rating in Season 7. But that was a fun season, and it was leading to an end. Season 8 should keep the forward move. If it becomes just another preview of the finale, it will drag on until the ratings plummet and there's no choice but to introduce the mother already.

Great value
Tiffany from browns mills, NJ– Verified Buyer
Beautiful and bright. Great finish and easy to put together. I looked all over for glass pathway lights and the sets I found were at least twice as much as this set, so I bought 2. Highly recommended.
Well made & bright
Kim from Gibsonia, PA– Verified Buyer
Was afraid to review these only because they're so awesome I didn't want Wayfair to run out again!! These are a great price, the best you'll find & are not plastic, but metal & glass!! They light up even in the winter with snow!! Just put some car wax on them to prevent discoloring if you get the brass
Good quality
Monica from Knoxville, TN– Verified Buyer
I have purchased 2 sets of these. They look like high quality bronze and are easy to put together. I will admit they're not very bright BUT they aren't in direct sunlight, and they might get half a days light if that. They do manage to charge long enough to stay lit all night long. I still like them very much. They look good during the day and light our curvrved path enough that we can see where we're going.
Karen from West Hills, CA– Verified Buyer
I love these lights and am thinking about purchasing more to put in my back yard. I like that they're glass (I was tired of the cheap looking plastic ones) and the light is crisp and bright, but not blinding. I chose the copper ones, they're very rich looking and a nice change from the silver.
Luv these solar lights..........
Marlene from Goodyear, AZ– Verified Buyer
These solar lights are very nice. Glass as well...quality good! One was cracked and they are sending a new one with no problem. They light up nice...look great! I am very satisfied!! I have looked all over for some decent lights!!

Highland Park Distillery
Its grey stone buildings, its twin pagodas, and its 26 warehouses give the Highland Park distinctiveness. By half a mile it is the world's most northerly distillery. Fittingly its whisky started with a blend of spirituality and a touch of wickedness. In 1798 Church Officer, Magnus Eunson, started an illicit outside on a hillside outside Kirkwall....more
St Magnus Cathedral
The construction of the cathedral began in 1137 - initiated by Earl Rognvald. The Islands were Norse at that time.It has been added to over the centuries, and is an interesting combination of red and yellow sandstone.Really the jewel of the town, and at its heart - go see.more
Bishop's & Earl's Palaces
The Bishop's Palace was built in the 12th century when Orkney was still a Norse earldom, as a residence for the bishop of St Magnus Cathedral.The Earl's Palace was built around 1600, by which time Orkney was part of Scotland.Both are now ruins. Worth a visit, none the less, as they are key historical relics.Both are Historic Scotland sites, and...more

enjoyed it...
Just took a chance and dived in here one night...No regrets...Ordered a burger on the strength of the menu's promise that it would be 100% Orkney beef. Well I can't tell you where the cow came from (unlikely to be imported from the mainland since the island is full of beef cattle) but it was definitely a real burger - not some processed c**p.Really...more
A real eye opener...It is stylish and cool. The staff don't grovel, but serve well. Mind you the (otherwise) lovely girl 2 tables away did have tattooed arms.The food was really good.

Block socket with SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY
Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 10/04/2004 - 02:00.
If I use block socket with SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY
The flag SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY will cause read/write operations to only return after the handshake and successful completion.
Do I have to handle the retrying in SSL_Read and SSL_Write? Isn't it easier to do this way? I know it hurts throughput a little, but is it a big deal?

Charges Faced by Former Municipal Prosecutor Pete Kisken
State Treasurer Might Have Money For You
It's not completely inconceivable that there's a big pile of cash with your name on it in the state treasury. In La Crosse county, there's about 17 thousand people that have some unclaimed money being held by the state. State treasurer Kurt Schuller has taken to the road over the last several days around the state to get that money back into the hands of its rightful owners. Schuller will be at the La Crosse library--main branch--from 9 to 11 this morning to help you find unclaimed property. Schuller also has stops planned during the day in Westby, Viroqua, Sparta and Tomah.
Is This Voter Fraud???
An official with the Government Accountability Board says it's illegal to vote where a person is just temporarily located. So did a Madison woman who claims she voted in Onalaska last November break the law? The Dane County D.A. just got the case from Lacrosse County and will look into it now.
A legislative aide, who worked for a state Assembly candidate near Onalaska, says she made it clear on her Facebook, that her stay in Onalaska last November was temporary, and she should have voted in Madison. In an Onalaska police report, the aide she said was told by a poll worker it would be okay to vote there – and she didn't mean to do anything wrong.
A Dane County supervisor wrote a blog entry that challenged the aide's right to vote in Onalaska. A Madison man read it, and then filed a complaint.
Tornado Strikes Tomah Speedway
Once again Mother Nature has proven she is not a race fan in 2011. This time on a more serious scale. The storm that tore up parts of LaCrosse, Sparta and Tomah also hit Excalibur Speedway.
"A few of the power lines at the speedway were blown over and unfortunately we are not the only one having issues. The soonest we were able to find anyone to come and repair the damage was Friday. That is too close to race time and so we made the decision to push the opening back one more week. We hope everyone enjoys their holiday weekend." -Greg Oliver, Race Operations Manager.
Officials plan to have everything repaired by the weekend and have everything back up
