Memphis principal promotes closed captioning on TV to help kids with reading
Captioning boosts reading
Raychellet Williamson is a one-woman crusader to promote the power of closed captioning on television.
With her blessing, every child at Shannon Elementary where she is principal is watching 60 minutes a day of child-friendly TV this holiday break — with the closed captioning button turned on.
"You are actually reading while you watch TV," Williamson said. "Hearing the word as it is said and then seeing the action, to me, that sounds like free Hooked on Phonics!"
She kicked off the no-budget movement around Shannon in November, the day after she heard Kent State University literacy professor Tim Rasinski speak in a reading seminar here.
"That was November 15," Williamson said. "The next day, I announced in our morning assembly, 'We were going to be like the Finnish people this weekend, boys and girls. Let's get started.'"We need to think of ways for kids to see more words in print. Every time you see a word, it gets imprinted in your memory. Eventually it becomes a sight word — a word you recognize immediately.
Finland, which has one of the highest literacy rates in the world, traces its success in part to a national promotion of closed captioning, Rasinski said in a phone interview.
"We need to think of ways for kids to see more words in print," Rasinski said. "Every time you see a word, it gets imprinted in your memory. Eventually it becomes a sight word — a word you recognize immediately. You don't have to analyze it."
English contains roughly 600 sight words (about, day, down, eat). The first 300 represent 67 percent of the most-used words. (They show up everywhere, including text messages, he says.)
"Ideally, we want kids to recognize them automatically by the end of second grade," Rasinski said.
Williamson directed the children to ask their parents for the TV remote. "Figure out where the closed captioning button is," she told them. If you want to watch a movie, it is in the setup for the movie. If it's regular TV, you may have to go through a few steps, depending on how old the TV is."
She tuned in first at home to judge the word crawl aggravation factor for herself.
"Because it was homework, I couldn't tell them to do it if I didn't do mine. In 10 minutes, I forgot the captions were on," she said.
For student Kevin Porterfield, 10, the first success was figuring out how to turn the captioning on. The second was seeing his reading speed increase.
"It helped me read faster than I usually can," he said. "At first it was really
hard to read because it was going so fast. Now, I can keep up with it."
Yasmine Evell, 10, who watches TV after school anyway, says the captions are helping her learn more words and read "a little better. I used to make 80s on reading. Now I am making 100s," she said.
"My mom is happy. She says it is helping me with my reading. My favorite programs are SpongeBob, Dora, My Little Pony, Hello Kitty and Strawberry Shortcake."
Which brings Williamson to her next point: "I've told the children they can watch any cartoon, children's program or shows that are on before 7 p.m. I do not want them watching after that and seeing that language in print on the bottom of the screen."
Every child is expected to bring documentation, signed by a parent, of their closed caption use over the break.
"Everyone who brings it back will get a treat," Williamson said. "And it will be noted on the bottom of their report cards.
"They will be away from school two whole weeks. I want to make sure their mind is on reading when they are away. We can't lose momentum. If Finland can do this, so can Shannon."
Rasinski has heard of individual teachers promoting closed captioning but never a whole school.
"I am very much interested to see what they find out," he said. With the "test culture in this country," he says, the first signs should show up in TCAP results this spring.
"I think what you would find is that some kids will make quite substantial improvement. The problem is teasing it out."

text: Great Lakes Lawmakers resist wind turbines in the Great Lakes By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Jun 10, 2013 www.geograph.org.uk Two northern Michigan representatives want to keep the picturesque shoreline of the Great Lakes free of spinning wind turbines. New legislation introduced by Republicans Greg MacMaster and Ray Franz would stop any proposed research or production of offshore wind power in the Great Lakes that border Michigan. It would also ban it for the future. Critics say the bill lacks foresight. "We think it is a mistake to limit research in this area," said James Clift, policy director of the Michigan Environmental Council. "We have a number of universities who have gotten grants to do research on offshore wind. It may be decades down the road, but to restrict our ability to even learn the possibilities there is extremely shortsighted." Great Lakes governors closer to agreement on Asian carp By Rick Pluta • Jun 2, 2013 Illinois Dept of Natural Resources The Great Lakes governors are meeting this weekend on Mackinac Island. There may have been a small breakthrough on a plan to deal with the threat of Asian carp spreading into the lakes. There's been some tension among the Great Lakes states over what to about Asian carp spreading from the Mississippi River system to Lake Michigan. The two join at a shipping canal in Chicago. The Great Lakes Council of Governors agreed to adopt a common strategy to fight the spread of invasive species. The curious history of a tasty little Great Lakes fish By Peter Payette • May 28, 2013 Photo courtesy of The Cove. Used with permission. Listen Listening... / 4:00 You can listen to today's Environment Report above. Not too long ago, we reported that native fish are doing really well in Lake Huron. The fish involved are not exactly well known species. But there is one that's a household name in lakeshore communities. Its success is sparking some scientific debate. A fish cocktail The owners of The Cove in Leland have a problem. Food and travel writers who pass through seldom forget to mention the Chubby Mary®. It's a Bloody Mary with a smoked chub in it. Mario Batali even put a photo of the cocktail on Bon Appetit's website along with his endorsement. The problem is there aren't many chubs for sale these days because they are really hard to find in the Great Lakes. Stateside for Monday, April 29th, 2013 By Stateside Staff • Apr 29, 2013 Listen Listening... / 45:44 With approval by the U.S. State Department, the plan to build a new, second bridge from Detroit to Windsor is moving forward. On today's show we take a look at the community in Detroit where the bridge will be built. Just what will happen to the Delray neighborhood? And, then, we'll speak with a woman who has hiked the shorelines of all five Great Lakes.But first to the state Capitol, where we saw a flurry of voting last week as lawmakers put together the next state budget. It's expected to total about $48 billion. The Republican-controlled state House approved spending for schools and colleges as well as a budget to fund the rest of state government. The state Senate, also controlled by Republicans, approved about half of its budget plan with more votes scheduled this week. Now, these votes set the stage for negotiations between the two Chambers in May because the goal in Lansing is to get the budget complete by June 1st. Joining us are Chad Livengood, Lansing reporter for The Detroit News, and Chris Gautz, Capitol Correspondent for Crain's Detroit Business. A hike along the Great Lakes By Stateside Staff • Apr 29, 2013 http://www.laketrek.com Listen Listening... / 11:10 As we move into our middle years many of us yearn to do something to change things up in a big way. Battle Creek's Loreen Niewenhuis took that question and really came up with something different: she got up from her desk, put on her hiking boots and started walking.First Loreen walked around Lake Michigan. Then she decided to walk over a thousand miles - hiking the shorelines of all five Great Lakes.Her adventures are chronicled in her new book A One-Thousand-Mile Great Lakes Walk: One Woman's Trek Along the Shorelines of All Five Great Lakes published by Crickhollow Books.Niewenhuis has taken off her hiking boots and joins us today on Stateside.

Raising water levels in Lakes Michigan and Huron with man-made stuctures By Mark Brush • Apr 26, 2013 NASA The International Joint Commission (IJC) recommends that the U.S. and Canadian governments investigate the option of placing man-made structures in the St. Clair River to raise water levels in Lakes Michigan and Huron. The IJC is a binational organization that develops recommendations and resolves disputes over waters between the U.S. and Canada. More from Jon Flesher of the Associated Press: Record-breaking storms add two inches to Lakes Michigan and Huron By Mark Brush • Apr 25, 2013 NOAA Listen Listening... / 4:00 Audio from the Environment Report for Thursday, April 25th. Recent storms are improving the low water levels in the Great Lakes, at least a little. Lakes Michigan and Huron hit record low levels this winter. (See National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Great Lakes Water Level Dashboard for a look at Great Lakes levels in historical context.) Ships are carrying less cargo, and boaters have had trouble getting in and out of harbors. To help with the low lake levels, the state started emergency dredging projects for some harbors. And experts say the recent storms are also helping a little. Keith Kompoltowicz is the Chief of Watershed Hydrology for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Detroit. It's normal for the lakes to go up a little in the spring, but Kompoltowicz says we've had so much rain lately that the typical spring increases in Lakes Michigan and Huron are up by about two inches more than normal. "There's a huge contribution from those storms," said Kompoltowicz. "It's looking like we came up from the first of the month through 22nd of the month. We're up well over 5 or 6 inches, so far, from start of the month." Two inches more on Lakes Michigan and Huron means the storms dropped 1.6 trillion gallons of water into the system. But they're called the GREAT Lakes, so even with all that water, Kompoltowicz says the lakes are likely to remain low. Protecting the Great Lakes By Stateside Staff • Apr 23, 2013 NOAA Listen Listening... / 17:26 The future of the Great Lakes, their management, and their usage were among key topics in a forum held recently at MSU's Institute for Public Policy and Social Research. The forum focused on the key question of how we should manage these huge bodies of fresh water in order to guarantee their availability for future generations. This is happening while the Obama Administration is asking for $300 million for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. Jennifer Read is Deputy Director of the University of Michigan Water Center and Jon Allen is Director of the Michigan Office of the Great Lakes. Both were in attendance at the forum, and they give us an overview of what was discussed. You can listen to the full interview above. Michigan AG says fund cannot be tapped for Great Lakes dredging By Rick Pluta • Apr 23, 2013 USEPA Governor Rick Snyder says he's pleased with an official opinion from state Attorney General Bill Schuette. It says the state constitution does not allow the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund to pay for dredging and other types of maintenance on public harbors. The governor says that affirms his position. "As we look at, let's look out to the future, I would not use the trust fund at all. That is not a place that I would look to for resources for this," he said. The Governor and the Attorney General say the Natural Resources Trust can only be used to acquire and improve property for the public's use. Snyder and the Legislature reached a compromise earlier on an emergency dredging bill that taps into the Waterways Trust Fund and the state's General Fund. The money will be used for dredging this spring to clear harbors suffering from record low water levels. Low water levels could affect Great Lakes shipping and recreational boating. Saltless surfing: Riding the waves of the Great Lakes By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Apr 23, 2013 Photograph by Mike Killion When you think "surfing," you probably think sunshine, "Aloha!" and warm beaches with palm trees. You probably don't think winter, icebergs, and Lake Superior. Surfing the Great Lakes is at its prime during the winter months, and this year's delayed spring is providing a dedicated group of Great Lakes surfers with some great swells. Winter and early spring storms produce large waves that are ideal for surfing. Ryan Gerard is the owner of Third Coast Surf Shop in New Buffalo, Michigan. He's noticed the effect of a late spring on surfing conditions. "It is kind of a double edged sword," he said. "The surf conditions have been pretty good lately because we've been having more of these weather conditions that bring us waves. I guess the other side of the sword is that we're ready for summer too." Will Congress preserve Great Lakes restoration funding? By Rebecca Williams • Apr 16, 2013 Rebecca Williams / Michigan Radio President Obama is asking for $300 million for the Great Lakes in his 2014 budget. That money would go to the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. It's a huge project to clean up pollution, fight invasive species and restore habitat. Chad Lord is the policy director for the Healing Our Waters-Great Lakes Coalition. He says there's been a lot of progress over the last four years. "All of these results are coming from the investments in new wetlands, buffer strips along rivers, cleaning up toxic sediments in areas around Detroit," he says. New study suggests Asian carp "at the doorstep" of the Great Lakes By Steve Carmody • Apr 4, 2013 Illinois Dept of Natural Resources A new study claims there is evidence that a small number of Asian Carp have reached the Great Lakes. Asian Carp is an invasive species that could potentially damage the Great Lakes environment and seven billion dollar fishing industry. The paper released Thursday was written by scientists with the University of Notre Dame, The Nature Conservancy and Central Michigan University. It summarizes findings from a two-year search for the carp in and around the Great Lakes. Michigan chefs experiment with Asian carp By Peter Payette • Mar 26, 2013 Sarah Payette Listen Listening... / 4:00 You can listen to today's Environment Report above. One of the strategies to keep Asian carp out of the Great Lakes is to eat the fish now living in the Mississippi River. But finding a market for millions of pounds of carp is not easy. Peter Payette wondered if people could get excited about Asian carp as a seafood delicacy. So he put some in the hands of chefs in Traverse City: Asian Carp doesn't taste like much. In fact, you might describe its taste as neutral. $20.9 million for Great Lakes harbor dredging By Mark Brush & Jake Neher • Mar 21, 2013 USEPA The lower water levels in the Great Lakes are taking a bite out of the state's pocketbook. Today, the Legislature sent a budget bill to Gov. Snyder that includes $20.9 million in funding for dredging harbors and marinas suffering from low water levels in Lakes Huron and Michigan. Update 2:00 p.m. Here's more on the $20.9 million approved for harbor dredging. MLive's Tim Martin has a list of the 49 harbors and marinas to be dredged with the funds. The bill had bi-partisan support, but State Senator Rebekah Warren (D-Ann Arbor) voted against a bill to fund dredging of public harbors and marinas with money from the state's Waterways Fund. "The Waterways Fund pays for things like maintaining our public marinas so that the public can have access to clean restrooms and great park locations at public marinas around the state - and they depleted that to do dredging. And to me, I just think it's the wrong priority," said Warren.Supporters said it's more important to provide access to the harbors and marinas now. They say they plan to put money back into the Waterways Fund later on. State Senator Geoff Hansen (R-Hart) said passage of the legislation today (before legislators take a two week spring break) will allow dredging to start in time for the summer boating season. "With this emergency situation, we needed the money now. We didn't need to wait, because it won't do any good once we get into July and August to try and do the dredging then. We needed to put the money up front, get the bids out, get the work done," said Hansen.Gov. Snyder is expected to sign the bill quickly to free up the money for dredging contracts. 11:01 a.m. The state Senate has sent Governor Rick Snyder a budget bill that includes almost $21 million to dredge Great Lakes harbors suffering from record low water levels. We'll have more soon. *An earlier headline read "$21 million for Great Lakes harbor dredging." $20.9 million was approved. We changed the headline. Emergency dredging money moving through House By Mark Brush • Mar 13, 2013 Andrew McFarlane / Flickr Lake levels are low, especially in Lakes Huron and Michigan, so harbors and ports want help clearing the way before boating season starts. Gov. Snyder called it an emergency. Members in the Legislature seem to agree as emergency money from the Natural Resources Trust Fund, a fund normally used for public land acquisition or improvement, is closer to reality. Battle lines drawn in Lansing over dredging By Jake Neher • Mar 4, 2013 Andrew McFarlane / Flickr A battle over how to pay for emergency harbor dredging is brewing in Lansing. State Senator John Moolenaar (R-Midland) is sponsoring a bill that would explicitly identify harbor dredging as a proper use of funding from the state's National Resources Trust Fund. He says, "when it comes to recreational access to use our tremendous assets that we have in Michigan, we believe this is consistent, but we wanted to spell it out in state law." Environmental groups are criticizing the plan. They say it would threaten the state's ability to buy and improve parks and public land. Hugh McDiarmid of the Michigan Environmental Council admits record-low water levels in the Great Lakes mean emergency dredging is necessary. But he says there are better ways to pay for it than raiding the Natural Resources Trust Fund. "Diverting money to dredge harbors," he says, "would hurt communities around the state who wouldn't have that money available for their parks and their recreational facilities." McDiarmid adds long-term harbor maintenance costs could drain the fund completely. "Maybe purchasing land to create a new harbor would be a more appropriate use of the trust fund", he says. "You know, some big investment like that rather than routine maintenance that would bleed the trust fund every year, and really should come from another source." Governor Rick Snyder is asking for more than $20 million for emergency harbor dredging in his proposed budget. That money would not come out of the Natural Resources Trust Fund. How the sequester might affect cleanup projects in the Great Lakes By Mark Brush • Feb 28, 2013 NWF Listen Listening... / 4:00 The NWF's Andy Buchsbaum talks about the sequester and potential affects on the Great Lakes. I'm not sure if you've noticed, but folks in Washington aren't exactly getting along these days. They couldn't agree on how to cut the deficit, and now we're facing automatic, across-the-board spending cuts from the federal government. The cuts are scheduled to start March 1. $85 billion will have to be stripped out of the federal budget this year alone. The White House sent a press release detailing how these cuts might affect environmental programs in Michigan. Here's what they wrote: Michigan would lose about $5.9 million in environmental funding to ensure clean water and air quality, as well as prevent pollution from pesticides and hazardous waste. In addition, Michigan could lose another $1.5 million in grants for fish and wildlife protection. We heard a lot about about how the sequester might affect things like airports, school funding, and Medicare, but we wanted to know more about the numbers above. How might environmental programs in the region be affected? The one that DIDN'T get away is a world record By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Feb 22, 2013 Courtesy: Michigan Department of Natural Resources In a press release today, Michigan's Department of Natural Resources says Joseph Seeberger has both a state record and now a world record-sized Great Lakes muskellunge. The International Committee of the Modern Day Muskellunge World Record Program (MDMWRP) recognized Seeberger's catch as the biggest ever. MDMWRP is a committee of muskellunge scientists, industry leaders, anglers and outdoor media personalities that formed in 2006. Prior to Seeberger's submission, there had not been a MDMWRP world-record entry verified. NewsHour on how low lake levels lead to economic problems By Mark Brush • Feb 13, 2013 Mark Brush / Michigan Radio Lakes Michigan and Huron reached their lowest level ever recorded recently, and the other Great Lakes are down as well. The Michigan Legislature and Gov. Snyder are calling for emergency dredging money to keep harbors open this summer. Elizabeth Brackett of WTTW Chicago recently traveled to Leland, Suttons Bay, and Ludington, Michigan for her report that aired on PBS NewsHour.Here's her report on how low lake levels can lead to economic problems in shoreline towns. In Brackett's report, Andrew Gronewold of the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory explained the low levels this way. When the water temperatures increase, which they are right now, especially through the summertime; then, in the fall, when we have the cool air masses coming over the lakes, we have increased evaporation, and that evaporation rate has been exaggerated, particularly this year. We're also in a year where there's been extremely low precipitation, so over the last year very little rain was coming in to the system, both in the form of snow melting in the springtime and then also direct rainfall onto the lakes themselves. Brackett also reported on a controversy Rebecca Williams and Peter Payette talked about last week, the lack of funding for harbor dredging. Chuck May of the Great Lakes Small Harbors Coalition said the federal government needs to do more. Again, from Brackett's report: The federal government actually owns these harbors, these channels. And they actually have a tax called a harbor maintenance tax that they put in place the beginning of 1985 to take care of these harbors. So far, in the past 15 years, they have collected $8 billion dollars that they have not spent on harbors. Lawmakers seek to tap Michigan's 'Rainy Day Fund' for Great Lakes dredging By Jake Neher • Feb 12, 2013 Andrew McFarlane / Flickr Some lawmakers in Lansing want to tap the state's "rainy day" fund to pay for emergency harbor dredging in the Great Lakes. A group of Republican state Senators today endorsed opening up $30 million from the fund for projects around the state. They also offered a number of ways to fund future dredging projects. State Senator Geoff Hansen (R-Hart) says a short-term solution isn't enough to address record-low water levels in the Great Lakes. "These are designed to be long-term solutions. We have the one-time, right now fix. And in the end of the day we need to have enough dollars to make that this year we're keeping our ports open," said Hansen. Governor Snyder set aside over $20 million in his proposed budget for emergency dredging. That money would not come out of the state's savings. The lawmakers say their plan is meant to supplement Snyder's proposal, not replace it. Pages« first ‹ previous … 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 … next › last »

Linux Journal Contents #158, June 2007
This month's issue concentrates on languages, even to the point of metaprogramming concepts where you write programs that write programs! PHP programmers will appreciate some help on how best to validate email addresses. Sun's Simon Phipps explains the move to GPL Java, and defends Sun's motives for protecting Java from corruption as long as was necessary. We'll teach you how to access databases asynchronously from Qt 4.x, which is a big improvement over default Qt 4.x database handling.
As always, there's much more. We'll take a look at the compact but powerful lua, a language so flexible even Blizzard uses it to allow players to extend World of Warcraft. And Christof Wittig is back with Ted Neward to explain the impedence mismatch between object-oriented languages and relational databases.

The word is actually from greek. The interpretation that it refers to the highest kind of love, as opposed to philia or eros, is mostly Christian in origin. The word is not much found in extant ancient greek texts.
Eros is explicitly sexual whereas philia is love as in brotherly love. The highest kind of love, agape, would be of an unconditional and sacrificial nature, such as the Christ's sacrifice on the cross.

What's on the Agenda? Manager Licensing or Certification
During the 2014 General Assembly session, a bill was introduced that, if it had passed, would have implemented mandatory licensing of community and condominium managers and placed it under the control of the North Carolina Real Estate Commission. The CAI NC Legislative Action Committee (NC LAC), working along with other organizations, managed to prevent this bill from becoming law. What makes this attempt to assign Community Manager licensing authority to the Real Estate Commission unusual is that the Commission's leaders have publicly stated, multiple times, that they don't want that responsibility. Based on data we have received from multiple persons familiar with this legislation, it is highly likely it will be introduced again in the 2015 legislative session. The CAI NC LAC is prepared to work against the passage of this unwanted bill, but believes that a more positive and long term approach is needed. Read More
Does Your Property Owners Association Need Workers' Compensation Insurance? Yes!
The North Carolina Workers' Compensation Act ("Act") requires all employers with three or more employees to carry workers' compensation insurance. The purpose of this requirement is to ensure that employees injured by an accident while working have a safety net to cover lost wages and medical expenses. Read More
I really Don't Like My Neighbor's Tenants: Issues With The Use And Enforceability Of Rental Restrictions In Homeowners' Associations
It is an all too common situation, especially in coastal communities, mountain retreats, and college towns: You bought a home in a planned community that has a homeowners' association with thoughts of being able to enjoy a quiet, family-oriented neighborhood. Then you find that your community's amenities are being overrun with transient tenants and their guests. These tenants and their guests do not pay assessments and, at least in your mind, do not share your vested economic, long-term interest in the community. "We must retake control of our community and our amenities," you say. You rally the full-time owners to your side, demanding that the homeowners' association do something about this "problem." But will it? Or, perhaps more importantly, can it? This question is the subject of this article, which will highlight the complex legal and practical issues that arise when homeowners' associations seek to impose restrictions on members' rentals of their property. Read More
Planning and Enforcing A Successful Collections Policy
As economic conditions struggle to improve, many community associations ("Associations") face the continuing challenge of chasing payment from a number of delinquent members. In light of these present conditions, formulating and sticking to a sound collections policy can be important. However, many Associations do not give sufficient attention to their collection of unpaid dues. Some board members may not be comfortable asking their neighbors to pay past-due debts, while others may view the collections process as complicated and uncertain. Nevertheless, with proper planning, Associations can craft enforceable policies that inform members of their obligations and limit potential losses that otherwise would be borne by the community at large.

Use of Technology by Community Associations
Technology makes most of our lives easier, and so it makes sense that community associations would choose to employ certain technological advances in the performance of their obligations. There are many possibilities for the use of technology in community associations. Two of the most common uses are community websites and electronic voting, both of which may be very beneficial to community associations.
Websites can be extremely helpful to a community association by providing members with easy access to: Read More

Most inmates are looking for a way to get out of the pen, but soon locals will be flocking to the historic Spencer County Jailhouse to enjoy a meal that will take them back to a simpler time.
Taylorsville Main Street and the Kentucky Gourd Society are teaming up to sponsor the first-annual Dinner in Jail event April 26. The dinner is the official kick-off for the 2014 Gourd Festival, which attracts hundreds of visitors to the area each year.
The Jailhouse — which is located behind the courthouse in downtown Taylorsville — has been sitting empty for years. The four-room facility was last used to house prisoners in the 1980s and then was a craft shop that featured the work of local artists for more than a decade. Main Street and Gourd Society members envisioned a special time to open up the building for a dinner that would accentuate its rich history while raising funds and awareness for the two groups.
The dinner menu is being planned and prepared by David Young at The Tea Cup. While Young prefers to stay behind the scenes, Main Street members agreed the project "was Dave's baby." The Jail House dinner menu will include Chicken Lucille, seasoned green beans, fried apples, bread, and a sweet finish with "Aunt B's" Blackberry Cobbler. Servers will be dressed in prisoner garb and the food will be presented on tin pie plates to capture the essence of an old-time jail.
"There are so many stories there," Main Street member and former Jailhouse Arts and Crafts operator Glenora Pace said of the building.
The building has three cells and a room that was referred to as the "drunk tank," which housed prisoners who came in inebriated. One cell includes a hole in the concrete wall where one inmate tried to dig out with a spoon.
"One of Al Capone's guys even came through there one time," Pace said.
Spencer County resident and artist Marie Thomas — who is well-known for her paintings of familiar buildings and subjects — painted a watercolor of the jailhouse in 1988. She has fond memories of her and other friends gathering at the jailhouse and painting together.
"We wanted a place to meet and paint, so we rented the old jail and we all met there about once a month and then we sold our work in there, too," Thomas said. "We all met and had a big time."
Main Street member and Taylorsville City Commissioner Beverly Ingram said the dinner event continues Main Street's focus of bringing attention to the historic downtown area.
"It will all be for the city, all for downtown," she said. "We all love the city."
Pace said part of the fun of having the dinner at the jailhouse is so people could see that the county actually did have a jail at one point.
"Once, a man brought his teenage son in wanting him to see where he spent way too many weekends when he was his age," Pace said, referring to when she worked at the jailhouse craft shop.
Tickets for Dinner in Jail are $25 each and are on sale at The Tea Cup and The Red Scooter. They are limited. There will be three seatings, one at 4, 6 and 8 p.m. Guests will receive a goodie bag filled with items from local sponsors, as well as get a "mug shot" taken while holding an inmate number to commemorate the event. Anyone wishing to sit together should buy their tickets together or request seating together.
Proceeds from the event will benefit Main Street beautification and restoration projects.

I was in Knoxville recently for business and spent 3 nights at the Courtyard Airport Alcoa Hotel. On my previous trips to Knoxville, I have always stayed at the Marriott in downtown Knoxville.

In my past trips to Knoxville I have always stayed at the nice Courtyard in West Bearden but decided to try staying at the one in Alcoa as it's 7 minutes away from Louisville, TN.

I've stayed at a few hotels in the area and this one is good as well. Friendly employees, clean room, and decent facilities. The lobby area is great for grabbing a drink or getting some work done and the exercise room was fine for a quick workout. Something I always find to be an added bonus. Would stay here again.
My wife's Dad lives in the area, and normally when we visit we stay at the HIE down the road. However, they recently eliminated their hot tub, and we used to really enjoy that feature, so we switch hotels.The downside to this Marriott is they don't offer a free hot breakfast like the HIE does. They do have a nice... More

Reader Redesign: China Cabinet Change-Up
Taking an old thrifted piece of furniture and freshening it up is one of our favorite types of makeovers. Which is why we've enjoyed Tanis' china cabinet project so much (and no, not just because it involved painting it white). Check out the beautiful transformation that she and her husband recently achieved:
A friend of mine introduced me to your blog and I've been hooked ever since! The love of my life and I bought our first house in May, and then 3 weeks later we got married! We've just started tackling a few DIY projects around the house and are particularly proud of this one: a china cabinet makeover to display our special wedding china (you can read more about why it's so meaningful to us here).
The entire piece was washed, sanded, primed and then painted a semi-gloss pure un-tinted white. Then we wallpapered the back with a textured wallpaper from the Debbie Travis collection and painted it 'Aegean Blue' by Martha Stewart. I have to admit, I am beyond pleased with the result! It took a lot of elbow grease, but it was worth it!
We're looking forward to many years of wedded bliss and many more DIY projects to tackle together. Thanks for the inspiration! – Tanis at Tanis Fiber Arts
Isn't that blue painted wallpaper such an incredibly elegant accent? We love that Tanis and her new hubby jumped in there and fearlessly made that dated china cabinet their own. What do you guys think? Will anyone else out there be following in their very stylish footsteps?

This is really great! I love the creative textured wallpaper idea!
It turned out lovely! What a difference some paint, wallpaper and the removal of hardware can make. It is so pretty!
Love this, Tanis! How long *did* it take to complete?
WOW! This cabinet came out gorgeous! I love the blue wallpaper!
This would be perfect in my dining room!!

What a great idea with the wall paper! I love furniture make overs, they are my fav! :) I love getting inspiration for what we could do with some of our older pieces.
That is gorgeous! I have started to become a bit obsessed with all things white since I started reading your blog – which is odd for me because I was always into all things DARK. All my furniture has always been dark wood, dark fabric. On the hunt for something like this myself!!! Very neat to see this overhaul. LOVE the wallpaper.
This makes me want to paint my dining room furniture white!
I love these kinds of transformations! So inspiring!
I know this wasn't one of your project, but do you have any advice for painting textured wallpaper? The previous owners left us a white, wallpapered bathroom, but the paper is textured with a leaf pattern. I'm very tempted to paint right over it to keep the pattern, but wasn't sure how it would turn out…
The painted wallpaper idea is brilliant! What a great transformation!!!
Wow, that is gorgeous! I love that they painted the wall paper.
What an amazing transformation! I think white paint is magical… it can spruce almost anythign up!
Very pretty, brought back to life to be enjoyed for years to come.
OOH Tanis!! I used this same wallpaper on my own china cabinet project last year — I was so excited to see it in your project. Great job!! and FANTASTIC colour choice! It is so fresh and airy, and clean! Here is my cabinet if you wanna take a peek:
what awesome china!
Very nice job! I've always loved the china hutch makeovers everyone has been doing, they look so nice. I might tackle one once we have a house and a place to put a hutch.
What a great way to freshen and update that piece, I LOVE it and now want to find a china cabinet to do something like this myself!
Stunning!!! I get so inspired by all of these projects!!!! I can't wait to have a new place to tackle something like this myself!
Wow, fantastic result!
OH…MY…GOSH! So freaking CUTE!!! This makes me want to redo everything in my house!! So glad I found you!! :)
I love this look! Fantastic! I'd love to have the room in my dining room to get a fabulous china cabinet like this!
Wow that turned out amazing! I want to do that in my house now!
Absolutely stunning and I am not normally a fan of gold but wow, I LOVE the china… gorgeous! Nice job :)
I am not normally a fan of china cabinets (or having special occasion china) But this is wonderful.
I love that the blue paint picks up the blue accents in the pattern.

Venus flytrap dormancy question.
I have one venus flytrap that has grown normally all this summer outdoors and is showing evident signs of being ready to go dormant this fall so far. i also purchased a few plants around the middle of october and they all had strong summer growth. So my question is , was my purchase a waste of money? and i have both my regular dormant ready plant and the active growing plants downstairs near a window in a unheated room for this winter, making sure they are watered and dead growth is removed. is there any insight or perhaps something im doing wrong. Thanks in advance.
So what did you do wrong? Are you referring the plants you bought in October? If they already had a good summer growth. So, then once colder temperatures sets in & the photo-period drop. These will also go dormant. Don't water them as much, just keep their soil moist.
Now if you are having buyers remorse, there isn't much you can do about that.

US: Trans prisoner may be given legal costs as well as surgery
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
I think that a transgender person incarcerated should have the right to have surgery, to deny this is inhumane, even on a level of almost torture.
And it is also torture to keep a woman in a men's prison. She should be moved to a female only prison immediately.
Besides the fact that it's torture, it's extremely dangerous. Male prisoners are often raped by other male prisoners, despite the fact that the rapist is actually straight (situational homosexuality). What do you think would happen to a woman placed with male prisoners?She will become the target of EVERY inmate in there. Even the ones who haven't raped other men would more than likely assault her.
Don't get me wrong, this woman did something awful and belongs in prison. The problem is that she's being punished more harshly than any other female murderer. Aren't we all supposed to be protected from cruel and unusual punishment? I'm glad she's getting the surgery, and she better be moved where she can be among other females.
