MangoDog's Doggy Days Update 061211
Well folks, it don't mean anything until it crosses the finish line - Ripening mangos I'm talking about. Doesn't matter how many cute babies you had that spurred your bubbled dreams of dripping chins - it's what stays on the plant and doesn't drop out of the race. So I've had some disappoints, as we all have had....
I've only included photos of plants that have done something since my last update May 1st. The first one is my best tree - Manila - has about 35-40 (60-65 last year)on it - but of course you can't see them all - still a good 6-7 weeks from ripening would be my best guess:
Then the Keitt with 6 nice ones, maybe half of those you can see:
The Edward, followed by the Rosiegold each have only one (Eddie had about 7 on him and Rosie about the same before they jumped ship):
ChocAnon, Glenn and Nam Doc Mai showing growth:
Lastly a picture of the maturing summer pond. Two very small mango trees at the far left and right = the new Mahachinook on the left, Glenn on the right:
Thanks.....well James - I've planted some no more than 7-8 feet from each other as I plan on triming them to fit the space between the pool and back fence (only about 5 feet or so) and let them sort of grow in to each other I suppose....but, they say they should get more room than that.....we'll see how it goes....
...thanks folks for your kind words....newgen - I don't know the name of the lilies - I remember buying them in a box at lowes that just had the bulbs in them with that colorful picture of the flowers on the outside....
so...quick question - Golden Nugget Mango - they are selling them at my Lowe's now - it seems like a tree worth getting - what do you guys think?
It wasn't me that posted the late/Pine Island report....I think it was Mango Kush. I have no knowledge as to what was late at PIN. In my yard, I consider Gold Nuggett a late-mid-season mango or at best an early-late season mango. Nice mango.....colors up a nice golden color.....so the name fits. It is worth the effort from my perspective. It doesn't come in first on most tastings, but I wouldn't throw it off the tasting plate either. Neelum and Keitt are considerably later in my yard.

Art classes, workshops and camps for children are taught by instructors experienced in working with children of all ages. Some instructors are multi-subject and art specialists with California teaching credentials. All are experienced artists. Class sizes are meant to be small, usually less than 10 students. We place great emphasis on positive feedback and individual creativity while gently guiding students in basic skills. The focus is on the experience, the process and skill building during the steps of making art. The finished product is not the only goal, it is a step along the way in a quest for learning. It is our hope that students will enjoy their experience and be motivated to pursue their own artistic interests.

A massive wine that is clearly of first-growth quality in this vintage, the 1982 Gruaud Larose remains a youngster. A broodingly dense, thick, unctuously textured, inky/plum/garnet/purple color offers up scents of beef blood, steak tartare, cassis, herbs, tobacco, and underbrush. One of the most concentrated wines of the vintage (as well as one of the most concentrated Bordeauxs I have ever tasted), it is a huge, full-bodied, weighty, rich wine whose tannins are getting silkier and silkier. It appears set for another 30-40 years of life. This behemoth is a singularly profound example of Gruaud Larose that continues to justify its legendary status. (RP)
(6/ 2009)
Bright red with a pale rim. The still-closed nose reluctantly releases aromas of red cherry, sweet spices, aromatic herbs and coffee. Dense, rich and fleshy, with ripe red cherry, tobacco and forest floor flavors given shape by harmonious acidity and smooth tannins. The very long, slightly chewy finish shows a peppery chocolatey persistence. This is developing at a snail's space and might last another three or four decades in a cold cellar, but while its tannic structure is noble and impressive, I'd probably want to check in on it again in five years' time to see how the fruit is holding up.
(4/ 2013)
One of the best wines ever made at this estate. Dense ruby color with a slight amber edge. Intense grape, berry and raspberry aromas. Full-bodied, with loads of velvety tannins and a long, ripe fruit and mineral aftertaste.
(11/ 1998)
Cool and very fresh with a seam of graphite. Drier than the Grand Puy Lacoste 1982 served blind alongside. More intense but with more obvious acidity. It may be drying out but I have given it the benefit of the doubt. 18/20 points.

This is not a motel of the Best Western Chain as one reviewer submitted. "Western" on their sign appears in same colors as Best Western, and perhaps it was one at one time, I don't know. The nice rooms are on the South side facing the river. If you get a second story, you can see over the rock "levee" surrounding the motel and see the canyon the river runs in, but not the river itself. The exterior of this building seemed to have just been repainted and it and the grounds looked pleasant. These rooms have a balcony which made good Moon and Star gazing in the evening. The bath had some plumbing issues like all motels seem to these days. The sink, if filled would overflow on to floor through the overflow orfice. The showerhead was plugged with deposits and the ceiling vent fan did not work. The WiFi system is not updated to work with MS Vista operating system, but XP will work.
It was impossible to run all three electrical appliances at once, microwave, coffee maker and refrigerator, were plugged into a strip type multi plug and the circuit breaker would open if any two were turned on. The closest restaurant, up the canyon about 1/4 mile, the Cider Mill, had horrid food, at least what we ordered; Chicken salad and Salmon. The "We Three" further up had a wonderful breakfast. I don't believe I'd stay there again, but choices in the area are scarce, at the lower prices.

Vice President for Enrollment and Marketing
(posted 12/22/14)
Women Who Are Going Places Start at Hollins beautifully describes what this institution has meant to the exceptional women we have educated for nearly 175 years. Hollins pursues an uncommon mission to provide women the opportunity to find their own voices and seek their own individual dreams and goals. We help them gain confidence to compete in a still-unequal world, and give them the tools to make the world a better place for other women, children, and men.
Nancy O. Gray, President, Hollins University
This place is too good to keep to ourselves…our definition of Hollins changes and grows every day with each new experience we have. The Hollins I knew as a first-year is not the Hollins I know now. As students, it's our job to find and rediscover the real Hollins—our Hollins—and Instagram it to our fullest ability because this place is too great to keep it to ourselves. For me, the real Hollins is about the relationships we build with the people around us.
Gabby Awuma, Student Government Association president
Hollins University, a proud and historic women's college located in Roanoke, Virginia, welcomes nominations and applications for the position of Vice President for Enrollment and Marketing. Although best known for its exceptional approach to the liberal arts, an excellent creative writing program, and commitment to the education of women, Hollins is a richly complex institution offering undergraduate degrees to women and graduate degrees to both men and women.
The selected candidate will report to President Nancy Gray, and serve as a member of the Cabinet.

Paula Broadwell
Former Gen. David Petraeus Could Be Indicted
Originally posted 01/11/2015 01:35PM
The FBI and prosecutors for the U.S. Justice Department have recommended retired Gen. David Petraeus face felony charges for passing classified information to his former mistress Paula Broadwell, according to reports.
Former Petraeus Paramour 'Very Grateful' for Husband's Support
Originally posted 12/07/2012 12:55PM
A month after her affair with Gen. David Petraeus became public and led to the four-star general's resignation as head of the CIA, Paula Broadwell is trying to mend her relationship with her radiologist husband, Scott.
The couple were spotted this week having lunch on the patio at 300 East, a popular restaurant in the Dilworth area of Charlotte, North Carolina. Though many other diners appeared to recognize the couple, the Broadwells, says an onlooker, seemed "relaxed and happy."
"They're trying to go on with their lives," says a source close to Broadwell, adding that it was Scott who suggested he and his wife go out to lunch since he was going to be working an evening shift. "Paula continues to be very grateful that Scott has been so supportive."
Paula Broadwell 'Devastated' by Her Role in Petraeus Affair
Originally posted 11/19/2012 02:05PM
When Paula Broadwell and her husband Scott returned to their North Carolina home with their two sons on Sunday from Washington, D.C., 25 friends and neighbors gathered to offer their support.
But for the married Broadwell, 40, who was both biographer and mistress to former Central Intelligence Agency Director David Petraeus, 60, the revelation of the affair and subsequent attention has made her emotional.
"She's been devastated by this," Paula Broadwell's brother, Stephen Kranz, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview. "She is filled with guilt and shame for what she's done and she's incredibly sorry for the pain she's caused her husband, her family, Petraseus's family. She accepts responsibility for her actions and knows she made a mistake."

"I just received my order and am just so happy about the quality! The smell of neroli quite literally blew my mind The shipping was super fast too. I am taking off one star because I requested sample of their purify and no one responded to let me know they weren't able to provide one-there is no option to purchase a sample or I would have. It is almost 17 dollars to order 12ml and I didn't want to since I already use another brands version of thieves. I guess I'll stick to my current supplier for that one. Overall it has been a pleasant experience and I will order through them in the future.
anandaapothecary, Ananda Apothecary rep has responded
"Sorry we didn't get back to you! We don't currently have samples available of our blends, though our Purify (version of Thieves) is really, really wonderful. Should you decide to try it with a future order, you can always send it back at no charge if you find it just wasn't for you. Let us know if there's anything else we can do for you."
"Had a good first experience with Ananda oils and about to come back for more. I thought the oils seemed to be of good quality and they were reasonably priced. Customer service was quite knowledgable and I appreciated that they suggestion caution when using oils."
"The best essential oil apothecary - the products I got were super high quality, and I keep on telling everybody about Ananda Apothecary. "
"I was just introduced to essential oils through a popular mlm company. I was interested in and thankful for everything I received from them, but was horrified at the prices. I have many health issues that I am hoping to address with oils and there was no way I could afford all of them through this company. I went searching for a cheaper, high quality way to meet my needs and was lucky to happen upon Ananda Apothecary.
I read all the reviews and was very impressed with how they (including the owner) addressed customer issues and went out of their way to solve any issues.
I was even more impressed and excited when my order arrived so quickly and so well packaged. Everything seems to be of very high quality. I am very glad I found this company who can meet my needs at a fraction of what I would have had to pay with the "other" company.
My order just arrived a few days ago and I am ready to place another!
I'm a happy customer!
Thank you! Stacey Fortenberry"
"Awesome selection of essential oils, and I love that they offer sample sizes for them, because I can test out really expensive essential oils for under $5. "
"Excellent quality and wonderful oils. Ananda Apothecary offers the best prices. Fast delivery and excellent customer service. Thank you. "
"Ananda is a great online essential oils resource. Their prices are very fair, not so low you worry you may be getting a "pure" oil that is mostly...something else (this has happened to me!) or so high you can't add to your collection without getting a second mortgage. They have a great selection of various oils, 3 lavenders alone! And I placed my order Wednesday night, it shipped on Thursday and I opened my package Monday.
The lavender I ordered was excellent. I have a sample from a costly MLM company and the smell is near exact. It's great! And they give samples so you can try it before you commit to a 12 ml bottle. That is a good thing for a novice like myself!
I am excited to do business with them in the future!"
"My first experience with Ananda is very good. I did not know, what company to choose to buy essential oils. Before I was sure that companies with high prices are the best but now I found is not true. Before I choose company I asked my teacher for aromatherapy and she gave me list of good companies, between them was Ananda Apothecary.
I researched that companies and I decided to buy from Ananda. And I can say I was very happy with customer service, and with essential oils. Essential oils are high quality, I bought so many and will buy again.
I love Ananda and oils of them.
"I placed an order with Ananda Apothecary on July 25th and it arrived intact on August 8th, barely 2 weeks later. I'm very happy with the service."
"Wow. Great selection and great prices too . I have been shopping around for some time trying various essential oils looking for the perfect supplier. I think my shopping is over. I will definitely be back!"
"My oils arrived within a week of ordering them. They are very high quality for a great price. For example, the peppermint oil tastes much more like a fresh peppermint leaf than the cheaper oils that taste like peppermint candy. My only complaint is that I never received notice that my order was shipped. When I sent an email asking I never got an answer, so I was left worrying about it."
"Excellent service wonderful product.
Terrific oil diffuser.
Well worth the money. "
"Great company. Very knowledgable and dedicated to educating customers about the chemistry of EO's and their safe use. AMAZING specials and you can earn free oils AS WELL AS combine all their offers. I also love the option to buy sample sizes so you can create your own blends or simply have an oil on hand that you don't necessarily need a lot of. they also provide great customer service with the option to call & have your questions directly answered. Will order again & encourage others to as well! "
"I've placed several orders from Ananda Apothecary over the years. Their blends are fabulous. Moreover they are more than willing to answer any and all questions. This is a great company."
"I have now ordered half a dozen times or so from The Ananda Apothecary. I have loved every oil so far. Their peppermint is the best I have found. Their fast delivery is greatly appreciated as well as their website. It is full of helpful information and easy to navigate."

PLAYER SAFETY: In Sydney, Adrian Proszenko reported the NRL "has aborted plans to introduce independent doctors to monitor game-day concussions, believing club medicos are best qualified to determine player safety." The issue has been cast into the spotlight after a number of prominent NRL doctors "quit at the end of last season over concerns team success was placed before player welfare" (SYDNEY MORNING HERALD, 2/20).
SHARKS APPEAL: The AAP reported interim Cronulla Sharks coach Peter Sharp "has urged the NRL to make a decision" on Cronulla's appeal against head coach Shane Flanagan's 12-month ban as the new season looms.

DOPING INVESTIGATION: Also in Sydney, Proszenko reported the NRL players' association hopes the resignation of Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority CEO Aurora Andruska "won't slow the investigation process in the supplements saga," saying affected players are under ''extraordinary physical and psychological strain." In a statement, the NRL said, "The NRL is determined to resolve these matters as soon as possible while limiting the risk of legal action and further delay" (SMH, 2/20).

'Phunnest' companies raise money for Ronald McDonald House
- Connie Li, Special to the Business Journal
Riding tricycles and donning huge foam fingers, lawyers and managers spent July 10 competing for the venerable title of Philadelphia's "Phunnest" company.
The result? More than $20,000 raised for the Ronald McDonald Charity House, which supports families of seriously ill children.
Dubbed the PHILAlympics, the competition is an annual tradition hosted by Philadelphia law firm Zarwin Baum Devito Kaplan Schaer Toddy, The Fun Department, Exude and Comcast Spectacor at the Wells Fargo Center.
The competition took place between 12 companies, with 15 members each. The competitors participated in activities ranging from the Foam Finger Pretzel Relay and Adult Tricycle Races to Philly-themed Trivia Challenges.
The winning team was Comcast Spectacor, which received the title of "Philadelphia's Phunnest Company" and went home with a trophy.
The event's beneficiary, the Ronald McDonald House, relies on individual and corporate donors for more than 90 percent of their funding. Both sponsors and companies with teams donated money.
The PHILAympics also featured special guests including Olympic medalist soccer player Heather Mitts, former Philadelphia Eagles Mike Quick and Kevin Reilly, comedian Joe Conklin, and State Sen. Larry Farnese.
"While our firm has a strong commitment to giving back to the communities that we serve, we also like to think outside of the box and turn charitable giving into opportunities in which individuals from across various sectors and industries can come together for a common cause," said Mitchell S. Kaplan, managing shareholder of Zarwin Baum. "With the PHILAlympics, we were able to get some of our area's leading companies to lace up their sneakers and tap into their inner athlete, all to benefit the children of the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House."

Janus is the Roman god of doors and thresholds. Positioned in the present, his dual visage faces backward, to the past, as he gazes forward to the future. For the first time in more than three decades. I have not spent this week in a frenzy of activity, making preparations to orchestrate the Fleischmanns Tennis Tournament. Dubbed by Mark Birman "a labor of love," the love ultimately required more labor than I, and my forever right-hand man Malcolm were physically able to sustain. The luxury of time without pressure allows me the opportunity to Janus-like reflect on what has occurred these past 34 years, and project as to what may be.

Mariano Vega, a part-time Fleischmanns resident who was involved in the Fleischmanns First movement, has been charged in a probe that netted 44 New Jersey officials and others on corruption and money laundering charges.
Vega, who is City Council President in Jersey City, New Jersey, is one of 44 people arrested in New Jersey and New York last Thursday in a broad-ranging corruption and international money laundering investigation that led to charges against two New Jersey Assemblymen and mayors of Hoboken, Secaucus and Ridgefield. The FBI and IRS investigation also ensnared rabbis from the Syrian Jewish communities in Deal and Brooklyn on money-laundering charges.
Fleischmanns - The sounds of Klezmer music will be heard in the Skene Library in Fleischmanns on Sunday, August 2 at 2 p.m.
The Saints of Swing, led by bandleader David Winograd, is an extraordinary collection of musicians providing an ultimate experience in classic Klezmer music. Richard Chiger, who has been singing klezmer since he was a small child, brings a fresh, warm, vibrant and authentic interpretation to this kind of music.

A recent claim that the Village of Fleischmanns never paid for property it took through eminent domain is true, but not as bad as it sounds.
That's according to Village Trustee Todd Pascarella, who responded to a statement made last week by Gabrielle Kirch, an Andes resident who once owned the property on the corner of Depot and Main streets in the village.
Fleischmanns native Abigail Davis has been awarded the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by the University of Minnesota. Dr. Davis' area of specialization is early American literature and culture; her minor field is Literacy and Rhetorical Studies.
By Jay Braman Jr.
It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Four years ago the Fleischmanns Village Board saw what appeared to be an opportunity. It had just used the power of condemnation to take a piece of private property on the corner of Main and Depot streets to build some waste-treatment infrastructure as part of the sewer system provided by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection. On the property sat an old, vacant building that looks as if it were some sort retail shop in years gone by.

Be careful where you park in Fleischmanns.
While violators of the no parking zones in the village may have in the past gotten off with a warning, it appears those days are gone following a special meeting of the village's board of trustees Monday evening that had the board and audience members standing on Main Street and arguing over where parking zones end.

Rand McNally introduces portable nav system
The Consumer Electronics Association has named its 2010 Best of Innovations award winners. Amongst them is the XM SkyDock.
Omniture announces that it's bringing its analytics tool to iPhone apps. And Rand McNally is increasing its mapping scope to compete with MapQuest and Google Maps.
The company introduces the Navigon 3300 Max, Navigon 4300T, and Navigon 7300T portable navigation devices, as well as a feature aiming to personalize route recommendations.
Old Rand McNally photos are sort of an early 20th century version of what Google is doing today with Street View.

I too am only using FLStudio Trial to compose my music. I understand the lack of flexibility that the trial has and must say, you've done a pretty decent job considering.
This piece is definately going into my iPod. Thank you, keep composing.
=] Someone who understands!!! It's actually pretty awesome considering it's a trial, though the lack of being able to return to your work is a major thorn in my side. Wish there was a work around, but I just gotta save up a few paychecks and buy the program.
But thanks man, and thanks for not giving me a 10 I really feel like this song isn't all that amazing haha. :) But then agian, i apriciate those other tens... but you know, an honest opinion's better than a good one! :)

Rob Bach, Stillwater High School principal
New principals have been named at Woodbury and Stillwater high schools, and both leaders cite experience in the South Washington County School District as crucial to their administrative careers.
Rob Bach, selected to lead Stillwater Area High School, has spent his entire 22 years as an educator in South Washington County.
"I have treasured my experience with the students, parents and staff of District 833," he said in a statement on the district's website. "I leave secure in the knowledge that amazing things are happening for our students and thankful for the opportunity to have served in such a dynamic place."
Bach most recently served as an assistant principal at Woodbury High after previous stints as a science teacher, head volleyball coach and assistant principal at Park High in Cottage Grove.
Of his new job, he said in a Stillwater schools news release: "I was drawn to Stillwater because of the tight-knit community that exists here. Because of that the high school has stature within the community that is unique … I'm humbled by the idea that the community thinks I'll be a good fit."
At Woodbury High, Sarah Sorenson-Wagner, currently an assistant principal at Park, has been chosen to replace Linda Plante, who is retiring.
Sorenson-Wagner started with the district in 2000 as a teacher of deaf and hard-of-hearing students and served four years as an assistant principal at Woodbury High before moving to Park.
In a district news release, she said that as a former special-education teacher "it is ingrained in me to advocate for all students and seek creative ways to ensure every student is successful."
She also credited Plante with being a mentor.
Familiar leader back in charge of schools
Tom Nelson, who served as interim superintendent of the Stillwater public schools in 2010-11, will return again as interim leader during the 2014-15 school year.
He replaces Corey Lunn, who is leaving this month after three years to become schools chief of the Johnston Community School District in Iowa.
Nelson, who previously led the South Washington County School District, will be paid $165,000 in 2014-15, just less than the $168,100 that Lunn was being paid in the final year of his three-year contract.
The school district said in a news release that Nelson's one-year contract will save the district money on the benefits side of the compensation equation because he does not need health insurance coverage through the district.
In the three years since Nelson last led the district, the Stillwater School District has enacted a "Bridge to Excellence" strategic plan and secured voter approval of a new, expanded operating levy.

Yor Nella Poems
Come back to Me My Love
My dear, how much I miss the sweetness of your kiss. Feeling your lips touch mine was so wonderfully divine.
I've lost my marbles
I used to have a good memory but I've forgotten where it's gone. And some people get so ornery when I forget and things go wrong.
Snowflake Ballet
I saw the snowflakes dancing down from the clouds spreading out like carpets in shiny white shrouds. Stirred by the wind they were scattering around all swirling and twirling they fell to the ground.
3 crafty women
We have a great laugh as we craft montaging and decupaging. And Barbara Grey shows us the way to layer and to brayer.
For one brief moment for both you and me life was perfect and Camelot came to be. There love was shown in all its fervency as the poetry flowed so fast and free.
This old man seeing his youth slipping away wished to be sexually active today. Not accepting the aging process of life and still desiring to make love to his wife
Me, You And The Wardrobe
I hid in the wardrobe thinking this will be great but my timing was wrong and I left it too late. My plan of seduction had gone wildly adrift for when you found me hiding there you got so miffed
I'm In Love With A Wonderful Woman
I'm in love with a wonderful woman and her name is Dorothy. For this lovely beautiful woman Is the only one to me.
Grow old with me
Grow old with me my lovely wife, I pray, and let's hold hands as we walk through each day facing together the passage of time for I'll always be yours and you'll be mine.
We Slept Till 9: 00am That Day
We slept till 9: 00am that day God said 'Slow down and walk my Way'. 'Take time to savour each moment with me and I'll show you sights you never knew to be'
My wife is a good looker
My wife's a good looker, she can spot anything No matter how well hidden she'll find the thing I look in the cupboard unable to see She comes along and points it out to me
Two In One
I am a man with two lovers in my life. One is my mistress and the other my wife. The wonder of it all that makes it such fun. Is that both these women are combined in one.
Triune love
Such passion was expressed that day In the birthplace of our love on holiday I stood erect in honour and rampant with desire As I entered the secret door into the woman I admire
Cater and Allen
Cater and Allen were not paying interest So transferring the money to Lloyds Rob thought best But now £100 by mistake to Roy's great disgrace Has been accidently sent into hyperspace.

Oh, darling of my heart
let us not stay apart
but let's wipe the slate clean
and return to how we'd been.
I don't know what to say
and really rue that day
when I was so unkind
in leaving you behind.
For I'd been so foolish
to cause you such anguish
on that horrible day
when I drove you away.
I'd love to start again
to make up for the pain
and the awful distress
caused by my selfishness.
Come back to me my ...
