Here is another one. Friend or foe? The bright orange is my 5 gallon pail.
It's a mulberry tree.
Thank you. Can it be moved relatively easy or would it die?
Generally undesired since it makes the birds poo blue/purple all over the area, tons of seedlings to pull. If there's one, there's probably more...
It's not the native mulberry but one of the weed mulberries - I would get rid of it asap - and make sure that you get the whole root, as it will regrow if you don't. Good luck!

As a single mom, there are holidays we love like Halloween and 4th of July. Then there are holidays that we don't love so much, like Valentine's Day. The bountiful red hearts, bundles of red roses, inane jewelry commercials and mushy holiday cards are consistent reminders of our painfully evident single status. But we can be above it all. As the Single Mom Advisor, I have five surefire tips, to handle our hearts and mind with tender loving care. We can all get through this Hallmark Holiday with our healthy egos in tact.
1. Grieve with Gusto
In the movie Moonlighting, Cher's character said, "Snap out of it." It is the old school way of recovering from life's traumas. The reality is we all need time to grieve. So if this Valentine's season finds you fresh out of a relationship, give yourself space to mourn your loss. Turn up the tune that was "your" song or play something that make you want to cry. When I was just separated I loved getting in my car and turning up my Evanescence CD. I'd drive and cry and think and sing along with Amy Lee's sultry voice until I felt better.

Appreciate the You in You
As a woman, it's crucial to your well being to appreciate and love yourself. After all, if you don't respect yourself how can you expect that of anyone else? You have to know what you are bringing to the party. I suggest you write yourself a love note including all the things you appreciate most about you.
Be Weary of Red
In the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology researchers found that men interpreted red as a signal that a woman was more open to sexual advances. They went on to say; "It's well known that males tend to inflate a woman's sexual appeal if they believe she'll be more open to a pickup line." And it didn't matter if it was a low cut sexy dress or a simple t-shirt. So if you're looking to lay low this Valentine's Day, then avoid the color red. If you want a little mindless hmm hmm, primp your pretty pout with rouge.

Fun With Friends
You know the saying, "Men will come and go, but girlfriends are forever"? Have a Valentines Vision Board Party. Invite your BFF's over, open a bottle of champagne, pull out the scissors, poster board, glue and old magazines and spend the evening creating "new romance" vision boards.
Engaged With Your Young Ones
You may find a new guy to share your life with down the line, but he will never take precedence over your children. So go ahead and create a new Valentine's tradition celebrating the love you share with those divine little creatures you cherish most.

help with new kitchen and refrigerator size!!
i recently purchased a new kitchen and appliances and paid no attention to the refrigerator depth, the unit specs are 33 3/4" w/ out doors and 36 3/4" with the door is it me or is this unit abnormally large? being 11" proud of the counter top is this awkward? I have tried googling for images of kitchens and nothing seems to sit that proud of the counter top. i need advise on if this unit would fit right in the kitchen or if i should look into a different unit.
Our new "counter depth" model is about 36 inches including the handes. I should have paid more attention, but our old one had just died again. The old one was about the same size, I wrongly assumed a counter depth one would be smaller. It sticks out a bit from the cabinets, obviously, and I am looking forward to moving it so it doesn't stick out into the room anymore! Five more months...
I've seen kitchens on TV with fridge protrusions that large. I agree that the situation isn't ideal. Many kitchens you see on the Internet now have so-called "counter depth" units that are closer to the deth of the counter so as not to look so awkward. But, they are a signifant price increase from standard depth units.
Which brand and model did you purchase?

Loui Eriksson's final five seasons with the Dallas Stars, were, from an individual standpoint, very good. He played as a top liner, scored a lot of goals, and played in all but three games in that span. He was beloved, albeit by a smaller fan base.
When he was sent to Boston in last summer's blockbuster, it seemed he'd get the one thing that was missing from that equation -- a shot at the playoffs, something he hadn't experienced in since 2008. For the Bruins, he would provide the stability they hadn't gotten from Tyler Seguin, who followed a very strong 2011-12 season with inconsistency and a postseason no-show in 2013.
Of all those things, reaching the playoffs was the only one that happened according to plan. He missed 21 games between a pair of concussions and a heel injury, and though he was good at points of the regular season (very good at the end of it), the up-and-down season was so un-Eriksson-like that when he missed a game with the heel injury the day before the trade deadline, folks (overly speculative folks, but folks nonetheless) wondered if the Bruins were trading him. The player who for years had been called underrated became under-appreciated in a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately market.
Now, as Eriksson enters his second season with the Bruins, he has every reason to expect it to be better than his 10-goal debut season in Boston. Looking back, the pressure to perform amidst an injury-riddled season was more than he'd previously experienced with in Dallas.
"It was tougher than I thought, actually, but it was something I have to live with, too," Eriksson admitted Monday. "Of course they should have high expectations. It was kind of a tough beginning of my season to play for Boston with all the concussions and everything a new system. I thought I was getting into it more at the end of the season and into the playoffs."
Indeed he was. As a third-liner, Eriksson found strong chemistry with Carl Soderberg and ended up finishing fourth on the Bruins in CorsiRel (in other words, he was the best in CorsiRel among players not named or playing alongside Patrice Bergeron). He added a pair of goals in the playoffs, though he was among the Bruins who rang iron at crucial moments in the second round of the playoffs against the Canadiens.
When he was teamed with David Krejci and Milan Lucic late in the regular season, Eriksson was outstanding. His best offensive game of the season came when he was playing on Boston's first line in an April 5 win over Philadelphia that saw him register assists on four of the Bruins' five goals.
That's a pretty good sign, as both Peter Chiarelli and Claude Julien have expressed confidence in Eriksson taking over as Boston's first-line right wing with Jarome Iginla now in Colorado.
"They've been playing a long time together, so it was kind of easy to go in there and play," Eriksson said of his limited experience with Krejci and Lucic. "They helped me out a lot, too, so it was definitely nice."
When the Bruins traded for him, they expected Eriksson to be their second-line right wing on Bergeron's line. Instead, his injuries and struggles meshing with Bergeron and Brad Marchand combined with the emergence of Reilly Smith left him on Boston's third line. Given how well he and Soderberg played together, losing Eriksson to a promotion would be a big loss for the third line, but Boston is confident that either Daniel Paille or one of its young wing prospects can fill that void.
Assuming Eriksson does end up on Boston's first line, he'll be in the same position in which he succeeded in Dallas. The expectations he faced coming in last year will still be there, especially with Seguin's emergence in Dallas, but with health, familiarity with the system and elite linemates, Eriksson's second season with the B's and first as their first-line right wing should go much better than his first campaign in Boston.
"We'll see what happens here," Eriksson said. "Of course I've been playing that role in Dallas for many years. Hopefully we click and we can play really good together. We still haven't played very much with each other, but we'll see when training camp starts."
Greg and Chris talk more offseason happenings with the Pats and their plans. They talk about some of the free agents toward the bottom of the list with Stevan Ridley and Dan Connolly. Price thinks that Connolly could end up back with the Pats and Ridley elsewhere (Cowboys?), but Greg thinks they both could be back. They also chat about the departure of VInce Wilfork and what he meant to the organization, the re-signing of McCourty and more.
The very first airing of the offseason edition of NFL Sunday gets underway with Greg and Chris delving into the free agency period and how the Pats made out. Of course they lost Revis to the Jets, but what else went on? Greg isn't over the loss of Revis yet and the guys discuss what went into that whole ordeal. Price is looking forward to the additions of Chandler and Cadet. They also get a call from Mike Petraglia and get his thoughts on the Pats offseason moves.
We talk to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News about his column today which basically accuses the Patriots of sour grapes for asking the league to enforce their own rules against tampering.
Brow Buff's Sam Packard and Ben Kichen break down Marcus Smart's unfortunate ball tap, debate leadership in the Celtics locker room, and rehash the great Kevin Love to Boston rumors.

Joe Kelly joined the Hot Stove show where he talked about being ready for his next spring training start after a biceps ailment forced him out of his last outing, he talks about his NCAA brackets and how teammate Wade Miley has a perfect bracket still.
Mut, Bradford, and Tomase kick off this weeks show by talking to Red Sox pitcher Joe Kelly about his biceps recovery, getting ready for the season and his NCAA brackets. They then talk about the Red Sox depth at closer with Koji Uehara questionable for the start of the season.
Peter Chiarelli joined the Sunday Skate crew to talk about the Bruins playoff push heading into the final handful of games of the regular season. Chiarelli talked about avoiding some of the overly negative feedback he gets while realizing that the team does have real issues. He discusses what went down at the trade deadline and if he was happy with the outcome, Lucic having a down year and underperforming, the salary cap and if he considers it as big of an issue as it's been made out to be and what the future holds for the team.
It's a big hour #2 for the Sunday Skate dudes - they talk about the B's defenseman and what the future looks like at that position, with both moves the team can make and younger guys in the AHL. They also get into the Bruins philosophy on bringing guys up and sending them back down and how players deal with that. Finally, the boys are joined by Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli to discuss EVERYTHING.
The Sunday Skate crew gets the show going discussing the Bruins big, impressive victory over the NY Rangers yesterday. What can you take from that game? According to LB - Lyndon Byers - who called the guys from the road, not a lot. LB drops a dime on what was going on with the Rangers yesterday. DJ and Joe discuss Claude's lines and groupings and the importance of Ryan Spooner. They also get into Lucic, his contributions this year and if he can turn things around.

I think there's a "male meme" that's passed on from one generation to the next, that teaches boys that they must be the tough, silent, competitive type (hence the phrase "pissing contest"). It's a new idea that men can adopt some of the "traditionally feminine traits," such as vulnerability, communicativeness, and cooperation. This idea needs to stick to our society, and women need to be given more of a voice. I do think we're making progress, such as when the U.S. finally decided to let women vote, but will we make enough progress in time to avoid self-destructing ourselves, is my question.
Science and religion could trade in their "pissing contests" for the simple search for truth, and could work together in that search. After all, science can't answer the biggest questions of "Why did the Universe ever exist in the first place," and "Is there something bigger out there?" For example, the mysterious thing called "dark energy" fills most of the Universe, and yet scientists know virtually nothing about it. Could it be that "Spirit World" of which religion so often speaks? Maybe. The point is, there's no need for "science zealots" and "religion zealots" to be at each other's throats. We do, after all, all share the desire to discover the truth. Why not cooperate in that endeavor?
As a "converted atheist," I can testify that being raised in a restrictive church can leave one with a bitter taste in one's mouth. So I sympathize with the "hateful atheists," even while realizing that they don't need to take their crusade that far. There are plenty of people in the church who I still respect very much. They stick to their values and are not dishonest.
As for the "makers of news," whether it be on TV or in magazines, I think those types are often tempted to publish whatever is the most sensational, whatever will excite the general public the most and hence, whatever will "sell the most magazines" or "reap the highest price from advertisers." So the news media often feeds on the conflict of science and religion, and adds fuel to the fire.
The most interesting thing, to me, is to make simple statements about, "Well, this is what's out there," or, "Well, this is what's been said," and accepting that as its own self-defined truth while pondering the possibilities in our own minds. No need to fight over the truth. Instead, we can share the magic of discovery, if we lay the fight aside. Might not sell as many magazines or excite as many advertisers, but it could become a new way of relating to each other that would benefit all.
Is this pretty close to the idea you were getting at?
With plentiful regards,
Kevin T.

Reviews For Wolverine Footwear 69422
This Product:
Wolverine Footwear: Leather Saddle Soap 69422
Once I had heard that he never bothered to condition them or clean them with anything other than water, I decided to give him this on a recommendation I found in a forum on line. He was pretty reluctant at first, so I just went ahead and did it for him and boy was he happy with the results: These boots look almost as good as when they were new out of the box. We got more crap off of those boots than we even knew were on them (we thought it was damaged leather because it was so caked on to the boots).
The product must be opened very carefully though, as mine was very moist and leaky. It also comes with a powerful smell, but that's to be expected from a powerful cleaner I suppose. I would recommend this to anyone, it's a very impressive product.

Each month a bunch of us get together to watch a movie. Our preference is for small films that didn't attract a lot of box-office attention but have something to say about the human condition. That said, over the years we've watched movies of every type (except flying-body-parts action flicks.) We usually meet on the last Friday of the month in the DeHaan Center at Pilgrim Park, which is equipped with a high definition big screen, comfortable easy chairs, fresh coffee and a microwave for the all-important free popcorn.
Join us!
Here's what's coming up in the months ahead
- March 27 "The Attack" This 2012 film from Lebanese director Ziad Doueiri forces us to confront our convenient stereotypes about the players in the middle east. A secular Palestinian surgeon is living a successful, assimilated life in Tel Aviv when he learns that his wife may have been the suicide bomber in a terrorist attack. His quest to find out what happened and why make for gripping, challenging viewing.

Phil Knight's love-hate relationship with Oregon
- Matthew Kish
- Staff Reporter- Portland Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Nike Inc. co-founder Phil Knight may have "webs between his toes," according to a fiery column he wrote for The Oregonian in 2010, but he also has a history of clashing with Oregon lawmakers.
That makes Friday's special session of the Legislature an unprecedented game of chicken between lawmakers and the most powerful man in Oregon business.
At the meeting, lawmakers will consider a proposal that would allow Gov. John Kitzhaber to lock-in Nike's taxes for future years, likely attracting at least a $150 million Nike expansion project.
The meeting comes less than two years after Knight said the state was in a "death spiral" in a column in The Oregonian. He described two business tax increases (Measures 66 and 67, both of which passed) as "Oregon's Assisted Suicide Law II."
Last year, Knight lashed out after the Board of Higher Education said it would not renew the contract of University of Oregon President Richard Lariviere, calling the decision an "embrace of mediocrity." He subsequently joined with other high-profile executives and formed a political action committee to lobby for education reform.
Nike and the city of Beaverton also duked it out in 2004 after the city announced plans to annex unincorporated territory, including Nike's headquarters in unincorporated Washington County.
At the same time Knight has criticized Oregon leaders, he's become the most powerful philanthropist in state history. He and wife Penny gave Oregon Health & Science University $125 million this year. That's in addition to the $100 million the Knights gave in 2008.
He also paid for a $41.7 million center for University of Oregon athletes. That's on top of the $100 million gift he made to the University of Oregon Athletics Legacy Fund that propelled the university's rise to athletic prominence, the largest gift in the university's history.
Matthew Kish covers footwear, apparel, banking, finance and general assignment news.

New York, New York.
After waiting nine long years for Championship #27, the New York Yankees poured out of the dugout to celebrate their World Series victory as the last groundball of the season was scooped up and lobbed to first base for the final out.
Hideki Matsui tied a World Series record with six RBIs, while Andy Pettitte earned the win on just three days rest as the Yankees took Game 6 away from the Philadelphia Phillies with a final score of 7-3 Wednesday night.
"The Yankees won. The world is right again," said team president Randy Levine.
Well, half of New York and the rest of the country might disagree with that… like All-star second baseman Chase Utley and his Phillies. Wednesday night capped a frustrating end to a bright season, crushing their hopes of becoming the first National League team to win back-t0-back World Series since the 1975-76 Cincinnati Reds. They were, or so they thought, destined to become the new Big Red Machine.
Utley did his best by tying Reggie Jackson with five Series longballs, and even Ryan Howard busted out of his 13-strikeout slump (worst ever) with a bomb of his own in the sixth, but it wasn't enough to stop Alex Rodriguez and company. A-Rod has waited a long time for this, his first World Championship. But future Hall of Famers Pettitte, Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada and Derek Jeter — all growing older together now –came up through the minors with each other and have enjoyed four titles coming in five years (1996 and '98-2000).
Joe Girardi, in his first year as manager of the team he won three Championships with as a player, chose to wear #27 on his back this season to make his mission clear: anything less than a ring made this team a bunch of losers.
"To be able to deliver this to the Boss, the stadium that he created and the atmosphere he has created around here is very gratifying for all of us," the skipper said.
Suck up.
Congratulations to the Bronx Bombers and their fans. Hopefully they won't need to spend over $400 million on free agents this winter.Tweet

First homestead
It was on this day in 1863 that Daniel Freeman filed the first claim for a homestead under the Homestead Act. Abraham Lincoln had approved the act in May of 1862, making it possible for anyone who was at least 21 years old or the head of a household to file a claim for a homestead of 160 acres outside the 13 colonies. It only cost $18 worth of fees, as long as you lived on it for five years, built a house, and farmed at least 10 acres.
Daniel Freeman is generally accepted as the first person to file a claim. The law went into effect on January 1, 1863, and Freeman convinced someone in the local land office to let him file a claim at 12:10 a.m. He claimed his land near Beatrice in south-central Nebraska.
In 1864, he began exchanging letters with a woman named Agnes from LeClaire, Iowa. Agnes had been engaged to Daniel's brother James, but James had died when both brothers were fighting for the Union in the Civil War. So Agnes and Daniel started exchanging letters  initially, they addressed each other as "Miss Agnes" and "Brother Dan," but soon they started calling each other "Friend Agnes" and "Friend Daniel." After months of letter-writing, they were married, and Agnes came to live with Daniel on his homestead near Beatrice. They had eight children, some of whom built their own homes on the original 160 acres.

Olympic Velodrome taking shape as new aerial shots released
Olympic Delivery Authority says plans on track as Olympic Park construction enters crucial phase
With less than 1,000 days to go before the Olympic flame is lit above London on 27 July 2012, new aerial photos show that the Velodrome where Team GB's track cyclists and para-cyclists will be aiming to repeat their Beijing success is taking shape.
The fixing of the steelwork that will form the Veledrome's distinctive double-curved design of the Velodrome is now almost halfway completed.
And it doesn't take too much imagination to fill in the blanks and visualise the event itself – the wooden track, sell-out crowd, and team members and media occupying the centre of the arena – that will be televised to millions of spectators worldwide in less than three years' time.
The Velodrome is one of the so-called 'Big Five' venues that will occupy the Olympic Park in Stratford, the others being the Olympic Stadium itself, the Aquatics Centre, the Village and the Media & Broadcast Centre, known as the IBC/MPC.
New images of all five have been released today by the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) to show that construction is on track as the International Olympic Committee's Coordination Commission visits London for an update on progress.
ODA Chairman, John Armitt, said: "With construction work on the Olympic Park approaching its peak, the 'Big Five' venues are already becoming landmarks on the east London skyline and show how much progress has been made since the IOC Coordination Commission visited earlier this year.
"The external structure of the Olympic Stadium has been finished and the completion of the Aquatics Centre roof gives us an exciting glimpse of what will become the 'Gateway to the Games' and the Olympic Park's most iconic venue. Work is also racing ahead in the north of the Park with the first residential plot of the Village structurally complete, the huge frame of the IBC/MPC in place and the striking architecture of the Velodrome taking shape."
Acknowledging the scale of the task that still lies ahead, he said: "The Olympic Park 'big build' is firmly on track but we are not complacent and these new images show the sheer scale of the project and the challenges ahead as we enter our toughest year in the project."
Sebastian Coe, Chairman of the London 2012 Organising Committee, believed that the new photos demonstrated the impact that the Olympics were having in revitalising what had been a run-down part of the capital.
"In a little under 1,000 days time, the eyes of the world will fall upon this part of east London," he explained. "The area is being transformed, creating new communities, new housing, and state-of-the-art sporting facilities. It is abundantly clear from these photographs that this piece of regeneration is well under way."
He continued: "Over the next year or so, we look forward to seeing the ODA continuing its excellent work so far and seeing the Olympic Park come to life – both for the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games in 2012 but also for generations to come."
Meanwhile, a new fly-through of the Olympic Park, narrated by former triple jumper Jonathan Edwards, can be watched online at the 2012 website.

Johnny Weir's latest statement about more than fashion
FEB 20, 2014 6:23a ET
American figure skater Johnny Weir has made quite an impression in Sochi working as a commentator for NBC during the Olympics.
He frequently sports bright outfits, proclaimed his fearlessness in the face of Russia's anti-gay policies, and painted the town red (OK, pink) with fellow commentator Tara Lipinski.
But on Wednesday, with his eyes on figure skating but his heart and mind on more pressing matters elsewhere, he used his fashion and his flamboyance to make a political statement.
As only he can.
Here is the statement:
And here is the meaning, according to For The Win:
Johnny Weir is in Sochi, but his thoughts are with the people of Ukraine. Dozens of protesters have died in anti-government clashes between protesters and police.
Weir said he was wearing his hair in "a traditional Ukrainian braid" on Wednesday in support of people in Kiev. At least 25 people have been killed in the capital city in clashes between protesters and Ukrainian riot police this week.
"I was planning, before I came, on doing braids because it's the style here," Weir said. "I wanted to do it today because everything is going so rough over there."
Weir has particular ties to Ukraine, his coach is Galina Zmievskaya, who was born in Odessa, Ukraine.
And as for painting the town pink with Lipinski? Here you go:

I'm sure she still could. She would be about 170 years old, which is considered late middle age in Vulcan society.
And before anyone brings up E2, the reason she looked so ancient in that episode can be attributed to Trellium poisoning.
Do we know when Vulcans go through menopause?, do they even have a menopause?, I would think that they do but I'm not exactly an expert.

annual bluegrass - want to kill it now!
Okay -- so, I've lived in Georgia for 8 years now, and have lived in this home for 4 years. The Bermuda was a lucious dark green for the first 3 years. Then, as all Georgians know, came the great drought of 2007. My Bermuda was in shambles last summer (2007). Watering restrictions put the slam-bang on our lawns here. I applied a pre-emergent in mid-October, 2007, but low and behold, this year the nasty annual bluegrass took over. I know it's too late to apply another pre-emergent, and I surely don't want to kill off my turf with more drastic measures. I've searched the web for hope -- to no avail. Everything I read tells me that I am a full year out of regaining control. Do I have any hope left for this year's Bermuda turf? What can I do to kill the nasty bluegrass, without damaging the good turf?
Please...any new and wonderful ideas?
Certainty herbicide is listed to *control* annual bluegrass, but I don't know what it does to Bermuda.
Other than that...well, I have some Certainty but used Round Up on those particular patches. Control doesn't mean kill, Round Up kills it dead.
Hopefully you'll have a summer with enough water or be able to irrigate. Feed that Bermuda well and it should knit closed in nothing flat, if our other Bermuda experts here are any guide.
Thanks for the the post response. That's the plan I had in mind for this summer -- treat it like a golf course; feed and water until it grows to fill the voids. I even thought about my buddy down the road (www.callahangolflinks.com) -- maybe he has some healthy tips, or some of that 'good stuff' they use. I just finished dropping the ole' John Deere to the lowest setting and whacked the top off the bluegrass. The Bermuda is just starting to sprig up pretty good, so maybe this "madaboutmylawn", chopping-it-down measure will give the Bermuda a fighting chance. Hopefully, we'll maintain the current levels of rainfall here and next year will be better.
I'll check out the Certainty at my local lawn care center.
Thanks again,
There is no post emergence control for Poa except for Glyphosate aka Round Up which will kill the Bermuda. It will disappear with hot summer temperatures. Annual species develops from germinating seeds left over from previous year growth. Annual bluegrass can adapt to all cutting heights. The seedhead will also develop under all cutting heights. Annual bluegrass excels with high fertility and irrigation.
The only control is pre-emergence applied in fall, winter, and early spring.
I just finished dropping the ole' John Deere to the lowest setting and whacked the top off the bluegrass.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Your Poa is laughing harder than I am.
Okay, enough teasing you because I know how you feel. Just know there is no such thing as whacking it.
In addition to TW's pre-m application schedule, try making the winter and spring applications with an herbicide that contains ethofumesate. They say it has an early post-m affect so if there's any chance of it getting past the pre-m, then maybe you can catch some of the early growth. Of course, you'll have to find out if ethofumesate can be applied to bermudagrass.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Your Poa is laughing harder than I am.
Okay, enough teasing you because I know how you feel. Just know there is no such thing as whacking it."
I couldn't agree more with this... We have POA in some of our putting greens that get mowed down to 3/16 of inch and POA is bright green.
POA is a nasty weed, and aside from round up, there's nothing that can kill it without hurting the desired grass.
I think control is the right word, unless you're willing to kill the desired grass.
Good luck.
Great posts -- thanks all. Yeah...I whacked it alright! That was more for my benefit than the lawn. Of course, by whacking to the stems, it did open up some sunlight to the reach (what remains of) the good turf underneath. It looks like a long, hard summer ahead. You can bet I'll find a better pre-emergent this year!
Three suggestions on this post response: Certainty, ethofumesate?, and Tenacity (mesotrione). I like the names. ;-)
I appreciate the propane torch, but that seems to be in the same category as 'whacking' it, which was my preferred pissed-off method of gaining revenge. Of course, death-by-fire may be a bit more personal, because you get to smell the destruction as well. Ha!
I can appreciate a good sense of humor, too.
Thanks again...

Q. How did you come up with the idea to create RaceKids?
A. I was getting ready to run the Chicago Marathon and my son who is a big hockey fan begged to come with me to see the home of the Chicago Blackhawks. I started researching daycares in the area to watch him while I raced and started getting nervous because I realized I did not know the area or who would be watching my son. I eventually put the search to rest but then it hit me, there had to be a race that had a day camp service. I looked again and found nothing that's when I started brainstorming. I decided to create a race day camp for kids so parents could run knowing their children were in safe hands.Read Full Story

As usual, it's been a while since my last post. But as I mentioned before, not a whole lot goes on around here during the winter. With spring comes lambing season, although mine began as somewhat of a surprise a couple weeks ago. No one looked even close and I wasn't expecting lambs until… well, now. It hasn't been the best. In fact, it goes down in my books as the worst. But, on the bright side… there's these…
I know I promised I'd post more, but really, there's not a lot that happens around here in the winter. Not with the frigid weather we've been having. Chores, chipping ice out of buckets that are supposedly heated, and trying to keep the dogs from going stir crazy. Especially Jig.
What I do during these times, is try to get caught up on inside projects that are languishing. One of those is the portrait of Shaine that's been laying on my drawing table for…well…a long time.
This was far and away the most difficult portrait I've ever done. Even now. But, outside of a few tweaks, it's ready for matting and framing so I thought I'd share it with you, just to prove I'm still here.
It's not the best photo ~ it looks better in person. I took it with my phone, in the kitchen, hanging on the fridge. (Sounds a bit like Clue, doesn't it? Mrs. Peacock, in the observatory, with the candlestick.) Okay, and I wasn't hanging on the fridge, the picture was.
Just a quick (photo-intensive) post to share some of my favorite photos from our cattle runs at the pre-trial and National's trial. Thanks to Lori Herbel of XP Photography for the excellent shots. (You'll notice our National's run was much calmer than the pre-trial run.)
Quinn turned twelve on the 8th of November. He has no clue. Seriously. Outside of exhibiting some signs of going deaf, it's hard to tell he's a 'senior' now. He still tears across the yard with his brephew (brother-nephew), makes snow angels, barks at me in his big-dog bark, and hops around like an absolute fool when he thinks we're going to do something fun. Or when he's in a good mood. Which, with Quinn, is almost always. He is the most mellow, relaxed dog I've every lived with; at ease just about everywhere, with everyone. And yes, as a puppy we swore he was narcoleptic because any time you picked him up, he fell asleep. I remember him as a tiny guy, laying in the palm of my hand, legs draped over the sides, happily snoozing away.
Last month, I officially retired Quinn from the trial arena. I had hoped he would retire with his WTCH*. He didn't. But he came damn close. We needed one Advanced Cattle leg to accomplish my goal, and we would have likely had it at the Coyote Classic in October had I not made a very conscious and deliberate choice to cross the handler's line. I made that choice for reasons. I've thought about it many times since and, if given the opportunity, I would likely do the same thing. For the same reasons. None of which are really important to anyone but me.
And, at the end of the day, a WTCH doesn't mean anything to Quinn. It's a human thing. But don't think for one second it was easy for me to give it up. It was something I'd been working hard at for quite a while. Something that took me on a roller coaster ride of highs and lows, and tested my partnership with my dog. Something that, at one point, almost cost me that partnership. But it also, ultimately, taught me a lot. It wasn't always the best journey, but it was one that, like Quinn himself, I wouldn't trade for the world.
And so, to celebrate Quinn's retirement, and our partnership, some pics over the years of him just being him.
Thank you, Mr. Quinn. Here's to many more years of snow angels, and big dog barks.
Yeah, this is a bit late, but I'm still trying to catch up from being gone for ten days. First, from the Brazos County Expo website, a much better image of the grounds than any I could get. I would gladly go back. The grounds were great, the hosts wonderful, the stock some of the nicest I've found at a Nationals.
When we set out for Nationals I had a goal: finish both Jig's remaining started titles. I'm pleased to say we accomplished that goal. Did we do as well as I had hoped? Nope. But did I still have a blast, and do I still love my dog? Absofreakinlutely.
Time and miles. Jig needs both.
Our sheep runs fell completely apart, which served to catch me totally off guard because on the home turf in training she does very well. We got in that looooonnnnngg arena, and suddenly I no longer existed in her world. Our National run was very short. After she blew me off, and then didn't respond even when I did get in her face, I knew it wouldn't get any better. I do love the way she watches her stock, but it would be nice to be acknowledged from time to time. Geez.
Cattle went better. I was able to keep her behind, and even get her back there after I had to send her to head to stop one, or tuck one in. I almost managed to blow our run, though. Our three minute warning came up at the second panel. Plenty of time to walk the stock down and re-pen, right? Sure. Unless you totally brain fart and lollygag around. Thankfully one of the voices in my head reminded me that three minutes had been called and I sprinted to get the gate closed with a full 56 seconds to spare. O_o
Ducks were fast and furious. There were a lot of complaints about the ducks (aren't there always?) but really, they were ducks. Young mallards. Quick, light, more than willing to flee the predators. Jig had way too much push. I don't know if we Q'd in our National run because we left before score sheets were handed out. It would be close if we did. There were some very good moments and some wildly insane "watch her!" moments. But since we had already finished her title at the pre-trial, some of the pressure was off.
Overall, I have to say I was very pleased with how Jig handled the entire venue. She can be a bit…concerned…about things. Traveling with her sister was even more of a test, as the two girls have been known to not play well together.
But they actually did have a few moments of silliness. I stress moments.
So, what's next?
Lots of training. LOTS. And more time and miles. Because for Jig and I, the journey is just beginning.
We arrived at the Expo center in Bryan, Texas at noon on Friday. The trip down had been fairly smooth and uneventful. Just the way every trip should be. Jig handled it well. For her. There were only two minor incidences. One involving getting her neck and front leg so entangled in a canvas bag Gail had in the back seat that we were forced to cut the strap to get it off her. And one involving her chewing nearly all the way through her harness. The part on her chest, I may add. Quite a feat if you ask me. Thankfully I had a bicycle harness along to replace it with. Mostly, she spent a lot of the trip doing this:
We did finally hit on something we think may be her issue while traveling: speed. She's pretty calm and relaxed until around 70 mph. Then she starts to get a bit panicky. Funny that a dog who has no problems with speed on her own four feet, doesn't seem to care for it in a moving vehicle. She does eventually settle, and even her panicking isn't as bad as it has been in the past. Hopefully with time and a few thousand miles more, she'll become a more relaxed traveler.
Friday was a day of getting settled in and acclimated before the pre-trial on Saturday. The arenas are huge, covered, environments unlike anything Jig has trialed in, or even seen.
I have to say, all things considered, for a young dog without a lot of trialing experience, Jig handled this venue well. A bit too well in the sheep arena. Our open run was not pretty. The stock were marvelous. Jig was full of herself. My handling was off. We made the first panel, missed the second, played ring around the rosy at the center as I tried to get her to listen and stop running amuck. I ended up calling our run. Actually, I thought the judge called it, but the HCT on my score sheet told me otherwise. In either case, it needed to be called.
After sheep I received a few words of wisdom which I applied to our duck run. And although Jig was a bit fast on that as well, I handled much better. I put myself in a better position to keep pressure on her when she needed it, and finally got into her head a bit. Unfortunately, that run was doomed. First we had a duck lie down and play possum. (Yes, they do that.) We took the pressure off, hoping it would get back up and join the others, when it didn't I decided to work just the four. No sooner did we get rolling again, when a spectator and her dog crowded the fence on the cross-drive. I didn't see her because I was concentrating on getting the ducks out of the corner. The judge stopped our run, got the woman to move, and offered me a re-run, which I gladly took. No possum duck that time, and we qualified with a respectable 78 to finish Jig's Started Duck title.
We finished our day with cattle. Far and away Jig's very favorite, though we have only worked them a handful of times. Cattle was course A, which means a take pen, one of our worst things at the moment. I'm not sure if Jig was intimidated by the size of the arena, if the three-day 1200 mile car trip had finally caught up to her, or if the fact that the pen was one she could easily get into by slipping under the fence had anything to do with it–perhaps a combination of all three-but she had the quietest, nicest pen she's ever done. Went under, around to the back, pushed the cattle out, then laid down while I closed the gate. Though we didn't qualify on our run (we made it to the first panel, lost them to the back fence, then re-penned) she did some very nice work. I take my blue ribbons where I can get them, and she gave me quite a few. The biggest was the fact that I could actually keep her off the heads and get her to stay behind. She took a flank to stop them coming off the side, then kicked back when I asked her to instead of heading in for a rodeo. We had one steer, however, that insisted on turning back and, of course, Jig insisted on stopping him. I tried to get things rolling again once we got everyone back together, but by then we were running tight on time, and I wanted to finish on a good note.
We have the next several days off, so we'll be watching finals and cheering on Deb & Ruby, relaxing, visiting, and just hanging out until our Nationals runs later this week. I'll try and snap some more pictures to share. Until then, remember…
Last weekend we went to MN to attend the Coyote Classic put on by the Upper Midwest Australian Shepherd Club at Conroy Farm. As always, it was a great time. I got a great surprise when I arrived at Deb's and found Gail in the kitchen. That was the awesomesauce on the entire weekend, as I didn't expect her to be there. But she'd come to support me in the quest for Quinn's last cattle leg. That gets its own post so I'll move on to Jig.
On the plus side, we ended the weekend with a Started Cattle leg, and came within two points of a qualifying score our first time running in Open Sheep. There were some blue ribbon moments sprinkled about, which was a good thing. Most of those came on Friday and Saturday. By Sunday…
I don't know about anyone else, but by the third day of a trial I'm running on the low side of the meter. My dogs usually come out of the gate on Friday raring for action, and by Sunday they are starting to mellow. Quite the opposite happened with Jig. She started out Friday a bit fast and furious but listening — for the most part. By Sunday she had figured out this wasn't like training and she could get away with a whole lot. So she did. Or tried to. Confidence shot through the roof, and my control was left gasping in the dust.
Jig would make a terrible poker player. When she gets the intense, wired, I've-been-into-the-crack look in her eyes, I know I'm pretty much screwed. She's way quicker than I could be even if I were a ninja, and when she flips a paw and blows me off, she doesn't hold back. This happened most on cattle. Jig loves her some cows. She particularly loves the heads. Even after getting a very thorough thrashing (which could have been far worse than it was) her enthusiasm didn't dampen. Oh, she was way more thoughtful, and we made the course, but the next day she was over-cranked and ready for more action. With cattle that's never a good thing. She and one steer had a set-to that got the bovine chasing her and me chasing it to keep her from getting trampled. Though how I thought to accomplish that I have no idea. In the end, Jig was faster than us both. She evaded her pursuer and I was able to get a stop on her before she went back for more.
I've no qualms about calling my run when things get out of control. I'll try to work through it for a bit, but if I'm not getting into my dog's head in short order I thank the judge for his time and exit the arena. It doesn't pay to let her think she can one-up me, and it's not doing the other competitors any favors.
Given that Jig hasn't been trialed in a year, this was our pre- pre-nationals test. Um…yeah… I've been working her every day since Tuesday, and will continue until we leave on the 29th, being sure to remind her that control isn't always a bad thing.
One of the other highlights of the weekend was getting to visit with Tracey. She had Jig's mom Ivy along, and we were able to get some photos of the two of them. Tracey also took some shots of our runs, some of which I'm sharing here.

IT MIGHT go down in history as the bear that crawled away. From March 11th to April 11th the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 9.8%, a whisker away from the 10% decline that would mark the first true correction since October 1990. Wall Street seemed to lose its spirit. But then, in a mere seven trading days after April 11th, the Dow regained 60% of its fall. That was only a prelude. On April 29th the index jumped by 179 points, a daily gain that was its second-biggest ever, in points terms. A little more exuberance will take it back above the record of 7,085 it reached in March.
Credit the turnaround to rapidly changing perceptions of America's economy. While the market was falling, stockmarket pundits were first preoccupied with the prospect of, and then spooked by the reality of, the small rise in interest rates engineered by the Federal Reserve on March 25th. The economy appeared to be growing powerfully. Rising interest rates threatened to kill the growth of corporate profits and hence the long appreciation in financial assets.
Investors, however, did not panic, observes Byron Wien, a strategist at Morgan Stanley, an investment bank. Mutual-fund investors withheld new money, but made only limited redemptions of existing investments. Rather than rushing to dump their stocks for cash, most institutions seem to have waited, albeit nervously.
Sure enough, two strands of news emerged to give the bull market renewed vigour. First, lots of companies have reported robust first-quarter earnings, and positive earnings surprises easily outweigh negative ones. Among the positives were Microsoft and IBM, technology companies both, that had been seen as vulnerable to over-extended expectations. IBM's results on April 29th, combined with news of a huge new share buy-back, sent its shares up by more than 5%. Microsoft shares have hit new highs. Fears that a rising dollar would dent profits have been largely dispelled, and analysts such as Abby Cohen of Goldman Sachs, an investment bank, think that the top 500 firms should increase their earnings by around 10% this year. That should be sufficient to insulate the stockmarket from a broad-based fall.
The second strand of news concerned the economy. Recent inflation figures suggest that there is still little upward price pressure in America, despite the implication of the Fed's rate increase. And the big rally in share prices on April 29th was sparked by news that labour costs are barely increasing, while orders for durable goods are actually falling. Although the government reported on April 30th that first-quarter growth reached a heady 5.6% annual rate—the best in a decade and twice the rate that the Fed is held to view as sustainable—the broad picture of an economy growing in controlled fashion and generating only feeble inflation has not yet seriously been challenged. That impressive growth figure is likely to be revised downward as more complete figures on inventory levels are taken account of.
All this has been bad news for bears, especially those, such as hedge funds, that use leverage to increase their bets. They had hoped that the bull market would end with a bang. Caught by the turn, some have had their worst trading period in years.

Free Walking Tour - Downtown LA
... Our guide was called Damien and he was actually from London and studied history so he knew a lot about each place we stopped. Along the way we visited buildings which used to be hotels where the likes of Charlie Chaplin, Winston Churchill and JFK had stayed. He also took us to the square where the first town square of Los Angeles is which had around it some of the ...
What a drive
... turning mountain roads. while the distances involved are not great the time it takes to get between places mounts up. the scenery is constantly changing as you drive. it is easy to take it for granted. just like yosemite, the scale of these parks, the mountains and trees cannot be captured by photos alone.
we carried on further into the sequoia park heading for the general sherman tree. this is the world's ...
The Mojave Desert
We planned to put on a lot of miles today, and we did. We drove from Williams, AZ to Tulare, CA, which is about 520 miles. The only sight seeing we did was through the windows of the car, but there was much to see. We left at 7:45 AM and it was setting up to be a very hot day. By 9:45 the temperature hit 100 degrees (we wondered if the car display would do 3 digits, and it did) and that was only the beginning. It went as high as 109 degrees, ...
Grand Canyon to San Fran... Cisnero's Inn!
... Lovely having a wholesome meal and Jane's even made us pudding! It's lovely sitting around telling them all our stories so far, talking to Beto and his boys who are all gorgeous! Manual is a true gentleman and has lots of stories to tell us about Tulare and its farming culture! Jane makes us feel so welcome and right at home. It's great being able to meet Manuel, Beto and his boys and I hope to go back soon and see them and ...
Back to the desert
... it looked like the one in the Lion King. I said to Mateo if we got up there I would lift him up like Simba - however we ran out of time so we didn't get to go there. The family told me that they have seen a few bears when they have been on previous outings - they even had bears dedicated to prevent the bears getting inside them - it even took me a while to work out how to get in - it was almost idiot proof too lol. We then headed down to this river there were about ...
