Some other viewpoint
Hawaii is home, so I love it, but I enjoy cruises and travel in general. I loved Costa Rica, Jamaica, Mexico, England and Germany; but I have never been to Spain, Greece, Italy and a million other places I want to see with someone I enjoy.
University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
I love hip hop and RB, but I get down with the old school jams, reggae and hawaiian music... I am an eclectic, so I listen to country, rock and everything else that can get me going.
I love to train athletes and I love my workouts. I enjoy adventure and love good times with good people.
My last read was Outliers by Malcom Gladwell... not sure I agree with evertything but it is interesting especially in my professional field. I am a sci-fi junky when I have the time...

|When beautiful, reckless Southern belle Zelda Sayre meets F. Scott Fitzgerald at a country club dance in 1918, she is 17 years old and he is a young army lieutenant. Before long, the "ungettable" Zelda has fallen for him despite his unsuitability: Scott isn''t prominent or even a Southerner, and keeps insisting that his writing will bring him both fortune and fame.
From the Publisher:
Picture a late-May morning in 1918, a time when Montgomery wore her prettiest spring dress and finest floral perfume?same as I would wear that evening? Thus begins the story of beautiful, reckless, seventeen-year-old Zelda Sayre on the day she meets Lieutenant Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald at a country club dance. Fitzgerald isn?t rich or settled; no one knows his people; and he wants, of all things, to be a writer in New York. No matter how wildly in love they may be, Zelda?s father firmly opposes the match. But when Scott finally sells his first novel, This Side of Paradise, Zelda defies her parents to board a train to New York and marry him in the vestry of St. Patrick?s Cathedral. Life is a sudden whirl of glamour and excitement: Everyone wants to meet the dashing young author of the scandalous novel?and his beautiful, perhaps even more scandalous wife. Zelda bobs her hair, trades in her provincial finery for daring dresses, and plunges into the endless party that welcomes the darlings of the literary world to New York, then Paris and the French Riviera. It is the Jazz Age, when everything seems new and possible?except that dazzling success does not always last. Surrounded by a thrilling array of magnificent hosts and mercurial geniuses?including Sara and Gerald Murphy, Gertrude Stein, and the great and terrible Ernest Hemingway?Zelda and Scott find the future both grander and stranger than they could have ever imagined.A tale inspired by the marriage of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald follows their union in defiance of her father's opposition and her abandonment of the provincial finery of her upbringing in favor of a scandalous flapper identity that gains her entry into the literary party scenes of New York, Paris and the French Riviera. 150,000 first printing.

Sharon and I received an invitation for Fran Amorosa's surprise retirement party. Fran was always there for the Bensonhurst West End Community Council (BWECC) as well as for Seth Low IS 96, where she had worked and her three children were schooled. Her retirement means we all lost her valuable tireless services she gave for over three decades!
The successful ruse to get Fran to her surprise party was that she was attending the retirement party of another Fran, a co−worker at Seth Low. The sign downstairs to the party room of the Marco Polo Restaurant welcomed everyone to Fran Spatola's retirement party. Everyone knows how hard it is to give a surprise party. It is extremely stressful, nerve−wracking and most of the time someone slips up somewhere before the party. For instance, Edie was giving her husband, Herb, a surprise 40th birthday party at a very exclusive Chinese restaurant. Edie took all kind of precautions: a separate engraved dummy invitation, phone numbers of their daughters to RSVP to. Everything was hush−hush and when their friends picked them up to go out, Herb didn't suspect a thing. That is, until the hat−check girl asked, "Are you here for the Herb Cannon surprise party? Well, if looks could kill, that hat−check girl would have been long dead by now. Herb was hysterical laughing. Edie was still fuming when they entered the room to the almost surprise party.
The wonderful part of attending a retirement party is you get to see friends again that you haven't seen since your children went to school together. After the kids graduated, the PTA moms went to work for the district. Look at Fran: Until John Mancini, retired Principal of Seth Low and a Vice President of BWECC, gave a wonderful biographical speech of Fran's career, I never knew she was a PTA Mom when her three kids attended Seth Low. In 1964 she was its PTA President, and in 1986 she became a SAPIS Worker (Substance Abuse Prevention Intervention Program). I don't know how she ever found the time, but in 1999 she got her master's degree to become a teacher. Two years later she was the guidance counselor and was now retiring! Fran was presented a BWECC Award from me with tears in my eyes, because I learned that night what "busy" really meant. No one could have been busier than Fran −− raising her family, doing BWECC Community work on call and she never said no. She could cater a party for 400 on a moment's notice or send out a 500−piece mailing within a day. All at the same time going to college to become a teacher, while rising a family. And what a family she has to enjoy her retirement with: Hubby Charlie, son Charles and Delia with their two children, Juliana 2 1⁄2 and Matteo 7 months, son Donny and Denise with their three children Christian 5, Alex 3 1⁄2 and 4 month old sister Brooke, daughter Rose and Sophia the oldest grandchild, 6, guarantees her a very busy and happy life with the grandchildren she adores, and family she and Charlie raised.
The ambience, decorations and food at Marco Polo were absolutely perfect, not to forget mentioning the very happy crowd. Kudos to daughter Rose who orchestrated the party with her father, brothers and sisters−in−laws, and of course the grandchildren who made the party.
Screech at you next week!

The Florida AquariumRead MoreThe Florida Aquarium has given families a glimpse into the mysteries and magic of the undersea world and the land that surrounds it for 20 years. View marine life from around the world from mere inches away, and splash with your family in Explore A Shore, the outdoor water adventure zone. Extended Fun Thursdays offers family-friendly entertainment, dining, and drinks at the aquarium on the Bay. The Journey to Madagascar exhibit provides a look into the island's unique wildlife and diverse geography as well as the nearby Indian Ocean coral reef. The marine life exhibits spotlight the creatures that live in the bay or deeper underwater, even allowing kids to touch rays and sharks at Stingray Beach or lock eyes with sea turtles. Kids also see the sights of a 60-foot dive at the coral-reef exhibit's walk-through tunnel, whose underwater coral cave and brightly colored fish earned the aquarium a place in Parents magazine's top 10 aquariums for kids. A trip down the Wetlands Trail allows visitors to get face to face with playful otters and more circumspect Burmese pythons, while the Penguin Point opens a window into the lives of the best dressed of the flightless water birds.701 Channelside DrTampa, FL US
Clearwater Marine AquariumRead MoreIn December of 2005, an orphaned bottlenose dolphin was rescued after being caught in a crab trap. She was brought to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium's rehabilitation center, where the team worked constantly to bring the dolphin, now named Winter, back to health. Soon, for the first time in her adult life, Winter swam like a true dolphin. It was a story of courage and heart worthy of Hollywood—in fact, Winter starred as herself in 2011's Dolphin Tale, a cinematic recreation of her life that reached #1 at the box office. Today, Winter lives at Clearwater Marine Aquarium with her bottlenose friend Hope, who starred with her in Dolphin Tale 2. Here, visitors can watch them swim and play, along with many more animals who got a second chance thanks to the aquarium's rehabilitation team. Visitors can meet these inspirational animals, witness the team in action, and support the effort to save marine animals.249 Windward PassageClearwater, FL US

Touch tanks hold even more animals, from horseshoe crabs to snakes, while fossils from the aquarium open a window into oceans past. To foster a greater appreciation of the world's waters, Shark-Con brings in experts from Discovery Channel's Shark Week, National Geographic, and other areas of marine science. There will also be fishing clinics and a "how to set up a saltwater tank" clinic, as well as kids activities like a shark tooth dig, bounce house, coloring projects, and a shark ride.

Even in death, McCourt's `Ashes' divides Limerick
DUBLIN Bitterness over Frank McCourt's memoir "Angela's Ashes" still smolders in his hometown of Limerick. Residents of the western Irish city have never agreed whether his Pulitzer-winning account of childhood survival amid soul-crushing poverty was more fact than fiction.
Limerick City Hall opened a book of condolence in memory of its most famous writer Monday, the day after McCourt's death and 13 years after "Angela's Ashes" put the city by the River Shannon on the literary map.
The vocal minority who have long branded McCourt a self-promoting liar kept a respectful silence – but observers wondered how long this restraint would last.
"The book was a delight and 80 percent true," said Tony Browne, a Limerick amateur historian who has found himself caught between two verbally warring camps in his past career as a local radio host. "Some people will keep saying it's all lies. They'll go to their deathbeds still in denial."
Official Ireland offered united condolences for the 78-year-old writer, who at age 19 left behind a Limerick that – through a combination of wretched housing, sanitation, sickness and hunger – had claimed the lives of three young siblings.
"Limerick is very proud of, and will never forget, Frank McCourt," said the mayor, Kevin Kiely, who plans to attend the U.S. funeral service and expressed hopes that McCourt's family would set aside some of the author's own ashes to be scattered on the Shannon. McCourt himself once expressed that hope – later adding the barb that he hoped his ashes would pollute the river.
For many locals, McCourt's memoirs have forever tarnished their own families' reputations and their parents' sentimental memories of a happy, harmonious Limerick.
The Limerick Leader – which in the past published criticisms of McCourt, once reprinting pictures of him as a smiling Limerick boy scout and asking "Is this the picture of misery?" – led the public eulogies Monday.
It reprinted pictures of McCourt's last visit to the city in August 2008, when the author admitted to mixed feelings about the impact his book had on local sensitivities.
"I've had such a turbulent relationship with the city," the newspaper quoted him as saying. "It's what I had to write about when I finally started writing after teaching for 30 years. I had to get it out of my system, but you never do. People say it's a catharsis, but it's not. Look at me – I'm back here again."
The author's younger brother Malachy said last week that, even from his Manhattan death bed, McCourt was ruminating on "his unfinished emotional business with Limerick."
The split in Limerick has long pitted a pro-McCourt majority – which views "Angela's Ashes" as an honest portrait of the poverty and smothering conservatism of bygone Ireland – against a vituperous minority. The critics charge McCourt with portraying his own family as poorer than it really was, and blackening the names of their own dead relatives, particularly by placing them in immoral sexual situations with McCourt himself and his late mother, Angela.

2006 Volvo S80Visitor, Jamestown, SC, November 21, 2011 09:40We have a 2006 S80 purchased new. This S80 is our third Volvo in the past 30 years. Doubt we will buy another. Currently has 110K on it. First 60k was basically trouble free. Now seems to be one thing after another and product protected. Good car, but a constant maintenance event. Significant problems with head lights and suspension sytem. Constantly fixing something like fuel door, dimmer switch, etc. Not sure all this is worth the hassle for the price and since we live 50 miles from the nearest Volvo shop.

What is that one scent or smell that sends you running to the toilet??? Mine is urine, YUCK!!! Just thinking about it makes me sick to my stomach. I hate walking into a bathroom because that seems to be the only thing that I can smell, I hate it. Not to mention the whole cleaning the toilet after a 8 and 4 yr old. I just can not stomach, but who else is going to do it. BLAH!!!

Any type of perfume or cologne. I swear everyone seemed to be wearing something while I was grocery shopping yesterday! It was driving me crazy! It also seems to constantly be lofting around in the hallway at work. And the litter box smell...even when it's clean. Luckily DH is convinced that I can't and shouldn't do this anymore, so I don't have to clean it. Yay!
Bread, strangely enough. I can eat it alright, but I can't go near a bakery or even the bread section in a grocery store, never mind baking it myself!
Also, poop (mine and others'), dirty dishes, strong spicy smells (fajitas, etc) and pet dander (yuck!!).
My husband when he comes home from work, lol. He's a builder and sweaty and gross. I had to tell him, "I love you so much but please don't kiss me till you take a shower!"
im actually the opposite, i love the smell of bread or any dough cooking :)

Luckily I haven't been pukey, but it's still gross.

As the summer wears on into its hottest days, homeowners are often faced with the challenge of staying comfortable as the heat and humidity get higher and higher.
Make the most of National BBQ month by using this time of year as the perfect opportunity to get your home ready for a fun, food-filled BBQ season! Check out these important tips that will ensure that your home will be looking sharp and smelling wonderful all summer long.
Clean the Grill
One of the most essential aspects of a BBQ is a reliable grill. Before you start cooking up some delicious food, it's vital to clean up and clean out the outdoor appliance. Start with the interior of the grill by deep cleaning the inside surfaces. A soapy sponge or rag should be enough to get the job done. Next, you can make your grill shine by polishing off the exterior. Again, a soapy towel will do, but make sure you avoid streaks by fully drying off the grill's exterior.
Provide Ample Seating
Your home can be the go-to spot for BBQs no matter the size of your backyard. Including some strategic seating is key to making guests feel comfortable and encouraging them to return. A solid table and chairs set are a BBQ staple, and most come in a variety of styles. Depending on your objective, you can incorporate more trendy furniture and decor or you can opt for a DIY project that will show off your personal style and offer an enjoyable outdoor project.
Offer Shaded Options
Not every guest will enjoy spending the entire afternoon in the sun, so make sure you included shaded options. If you have a patio then you can simply move window coverings outdoors to shade guests and block the sun's harsh rays. Those who seek more creative shading options can use sheets to tie together arrays of trees. This option is ideal for young children who prefer being outdoors and playing in the grass, but who should not be spending too much time in the sun.
Dress Up the Yard
While providing places for guests to sit and relax are necessary, the more enjoyable aspect of BBQ preparation may be adding your unique touch. Planting colorful flowers, trimming up hedges or planting trees are great outdoor projects that will bring a new life and energy to your BBQ. These outdoor features will not only offer lovely scenery for guests, but will also give you a chance to reveal your green thumb - or offer you a chance to develop one!
Make it an Event
BBQs are known for their yummy dishes and friendly attendees, which means they could easily turn into day-long experiences. Encourage your guests to spend the day at your BBQ by turning it into an event of its own. For example, investing in some fashionable lounge chairs can provide extra seating while also prompting guests to stick around for some additional time in the sun. Offering multiple options for guests outside of scrumptious food can keep them around longer.
Outdoor patios are perfect for warm summer nights. With a canopy overhead and some dividing custom window treatments to keep the bugs at bay, they're a lovely area for entertaining, or just curling up with your loved ones. Nature-inspired patios blend into the scenery, and, when done right, will barely create a blip in the horizon. Here are some tips for cultivating one of your own.
With warmer weather moving in, now is a great time to find unique ways to bring your blinds and shades outdoors. Not only will these window coverings provide some much-needed shade, but they can also show off your personal style.
Dress Up a Patio
Your porch is probably a summer staple, so why not find some great ways to make it more enjoyable in the midst of summer's heat? Incorporating some pretty shades can make a huge impact on not only the amount of heat felt, but the overall appearance of a home. Cellular shades can be a great addition as they come in a wide range of colors and incorporate light-filtering options. If you prefer fabric, adding some airy curtains can catch the eye and block sunrays.
Connect Blossoming Trees
If you have some beautiful trees in your front or backyard, you can bring out your favorite window covering to tie the trees together. As long as the trees are an appropriate distance from one another, you can easily create a shaded, grassy sitting area that is perfect for outdoor picnics or a child's sun-free playspace. Take advantage of the trees' colors and any other garden features by using floral or earth-tone decor when decorating the space between the trees.
Shield a Sitting Area
Outdoor areas that feature seats, couches or benches will require shade once the sun is stronger and out for a longer period of time. While covering the areas around the the seats will greatly reduce the impact of the heat, considering various overhead coverings can also be an effective way to block the sun. Shielding an outdoor sitting area will encourage your family and friends to enjoy the nice, warm weather and feel as if they were in the comfort of your home.
Build a Barrier
If you like tackling larger projects, building a sun-shading barrier may be the perfect project for you! If your home lacks a porch, patio or outdoor sitting area, constructing your own fortress can provide a new area where guests can hang out over the spring and summer. Once you build a reliable structure, you can add personal touches with stylish, light-filtering blinds and shades that will make your new outdoor feature an enticing option no matter the temperature.
Get Creative
You can opt for attention-grabbing blinds and shades when you want to show off your personal style. For example, introducing bamboo sliding panels to an outdoor sitting area will create an exotic feel. You could also consider adding interior decor to match your fun outdoor window coverings. Traditional decor can show off the natural beauty of wood blinds while incorporating a more colorful palette can be a great way to enhance the simplicity of vertical blinds.
If you don't have vacation plans or if your summer trip seems too far away then why not turn your home into an everyday personal getaway? Check out these creative and fun ideas that will transform your home into a summer destination of its own!
Create a Cozy Atmosphere
You can makeover both the indoor and outdoor features of your home so you can experience a relaxing atmosphere on a daily basis. Your outdoor decor can be revitalized with a porch swing, firepit or even a simple fan to cool off in warmer weather. The indoors can also be addressed with a new air conditioner, light-filtering shades or light blankets. You can even make the transition from inside to outside more resort-like with the inclusion of sliding doors or plantation shutters. A combination of these features will bring a vacation-like feel to your entire home.
Incorporate Unused Furniture
Some of your furniture may get to the point of being outgrown or unfitting for their intended room. Instead of investing in huge projects, you can make the most of these already-purchased items and bring a warm, sunny life to your home. For example, you can turn a table into an outdoor stove, wine bottles into tiki torches and whiskey barrels into coffee tables. Many DIY websites feature innovative projects like these that can turn items that may not serve their original purpose into much-appreciated summer staples.
Consider a Child's Perspective
If you have children then you know that they enjoy a vacation just as much as you do. In order for you to have a relaxing experience at your revamped home then you will need to consider new activities and options for them as well. Consider investing in or creating your own outdoor playground that will encourage your kids not only to have fun with their friends outdoors, but to also be more active. You can redo the inside of your home too by gathering sheets and blankets to create a cozy fort. This option lets children express their creativity without a huge mess!
Take on an Outdoor Project
What comes to mind when you think about the perfect vacation? Maybe you envision a large pool with a diving board, beautiful fountain or relaxing gazebo. All of these projects can in fact be taken on before summer rolls around. You can add some fun to the bigger tasks by inviting family and friends over to create a unique bonding experience. You can also look at the tasks as exercise and, since you're outside, you can work on your tan in the process. All of the hard work will be more than worthwhile when you are enjoying your new outdoor additions all summer.
Spring is finally here and the flowers are blooming! Bring the garden inside by designing your space so that it can blossom year-round, thanks to floral fabrics, wall coverings, and furnishings. Marie Antoinette Interiors Florals are a classic print that people just can't seem to get enough of. There's something cheerful, sophisticated and fun about flowers that makes us want to put them practically everywhere, but there are a few tricks for making them work right. Whether you're covering cellular shades with floral curtains or using printed throw pillows, here's how to do it without ending up like your Grandma Bessie's living room. BIG VS. SMALLFirst, pay attention to the size of the prints you're looking at. In general, large designs work better in big rooms where they won't seem overwhelming, while small prints look best in tinier spaces where they won't get lost in the mix.SIMPLE IS BETTERKeeping it simple and neutral is the key to layering floral print upholstery, floral rugs and floral artwork in the same space. Mix in a few simply upholstered chairs and wooden tables with bolder floral pieces. ACCENTUATEHouse Beautiful If you don't want to go "all out" with florals, use them as an accent, like on your pillows or artwork. You can also incorporate floral patterns into designs that feature deeper colors and rustic elements like wood and stone. GO VINTAGEEtsy Store: Luxe ArtifactsFloral sofas were big in the '60s and '70s, especially coastal decorating styles. If you love vintage prints, search online sites like Ebay and Etsy or head to a flea market to pick up something similar that's affordable and funky. MIX IT UPLeslie Fine Interiors - Via BrunschwigDon't be afraid to mix your prints. Feel free to experiment with stripes, polka dots or even zig zags when you're pairing your florals. As long as the scale, texture or colors are similar, they should work together.
Happy April Fool's Day! Instead of getting pranked or tricked, we have provided some great, foolproof ways for you to get your yard ready for warm and sunny spring weather.
Prep Your Lawn - Even though spring has already begun, it isn't too late to give your lawn some much-needed attention. If you've let your yard get out of hand, start off by mowing your old grass low. If weeds are typically an issue, you can also look into purchasing a pre-emergence lawn weed killer to keep your lawn weed-free all spring.
Make it Manageable - If your home came with a large yard that doesn't mean you have to worry about maintaining all of it. Instead of feeling stressed about the amount of work you have to do, consider adding in features like pavers or bricks to frame your lawn and make a noticeable size reduction. You can make your lawn look great with less effort!
Trim Up - Some plants may have gone through tough times this winter, so give them some love by investing in some reliable pruning shears. Shrubs and small trees are examples of greenery that can be pruned. These features will benefit from a trimming as it will help your yard maintain its shape and enhance spring's growing capabilities.
Bring Out the Rake - Rake's may typically be associated with fall leaves, but rakes can in fact have value in the beginning of spring as well. Raking away winter debris can make a huge difference in your lawn. Not only will you instantly notice a change in appearance, but you will give your yard a chance to grow and blossom all spring.
Clean Out Every Home - Not only does your personal home need spring cleaning, but your birds' homes need to be cleaned as well. In order to encourage birds to return in the spring, you need to remove any diseases that could have developed in the colder weather. Pests could have made an infestation as well, so it is best to cover all of your bases.
Do Some Research - If you don't consider yourself to have a green thumb, then do some research into which plants survive the best in your area. You may come to find that it wasn't your lack of skills that prevented your plants from living a full life, but the plants themselves may not be capable of surviving in your environment.
Start Fresh - There's no time better than the beginning of spring to introduce a new plant bed. Starting early is best as it is vital to dig areas and add organic matter as needed so your soil will encourage growth. The new additions can provide an entirely new vibe to your yard and provide some motivation for you to keep them looking fresh and lively.
Pay Attention to Paths - Having paths around your lawn is a personal, sophisticated addition that can impact your ability to move around as well as overall appearance. The vitality of a great path deems it essential to do some maintenance on these areas as well. You can use tools like a rake, broom or pressure washer to reveal the prime condition.
Mend Fences - Fences may have become rotted or damaged over time, so it is important to note the condition of your fences when you are attending to your yard. You can paint over rough patches, repair certain parts or look into replacing areas that are too much to handle. Enlist family and neighbors to make mending a more enjoyable process.
This Friday marks the first day of spring, which means you can officially start incorporating pretty, light pastels into your home decor. Check out some of these great ideas that can serve as inspiration for incorporating pastel shades into your home throughout the spring season.

These cellular or honeycomb shades are a great way to experience the fun colors of spring while still serving essential shade purposes. They come in a wide range of colors including pale petal and ocean that bring the light, pretty colors of spring into your home. In addition to pastel color options, the shades also offer light-filtering capabilities and incredible softness and insulation.
Solids and Textured Pleated Shades
Pleated shades are all about options! Whether it's fun colors like weaver-loden and nabuk-oatmeal or useful liners such as privacy and room-darkening, you can be sure that the shades will be able to meet all of your unique needs. You can even add an element of convenience with the top-down bottom-up option that lets you raise the shades from the bottom.
Cordless Roman Shades
Cordless roman shades have two roman styles and countless color options. For example, you can choose from wilmington water, lexi chino or fun patterns to add some spring to your home. The shades also feature a cordless lift system that is easy to use and safe for your children and pets. In addition to these great benefits, the shades come with a standard light filtering liner.

These roller shades not only come in spring color options like gold and moss, but they are also the most affordable roller shade. These pastel color options are also able to serve a light-filtering purpose. There are additional options including hem styles and cassette valances that are able to match the shades to your unique room design.

It's the perfect time of year to adorn your tables, windowsills and countertops with lush indoor plants. Martha Stewart uses them as a decorative staple and to bring life into a room, and they can help to improve the air quality of your home. Besides making sure your window treatments let enough light in to keep your foliage healthy, here are some tips for decorating with houseplants. From SouthernLiving.com. Larger-leaved selections such as 'Deborah' and 'Silver Bay' help reduce the scale of a big room. Photo by William DickeyUse unique displaysAlthough the terra cotta flowerpot is a classic when it comes to houseplants, there are displays available that might better match your decor. Put your plants atop cast iron stands or stone columns to bring them closer to eye level and draw more attention to them, or consider planting some herbs in small clay hanging pots and placing them above your kitchen sink for an attractive and functional decoration. You can also attach flowerpots to a plank of wood and mount it on a wall as you would a work of art. Keep like with likeGroupings of the same plant species in different hybrids can create subtle contrast while maintaining consistency, as does keeping various species of the same height or hue together. A perfect example of this look is a windowsill crowded with several kinds of cacti. In addition to being visually eclectic, the display is also easy to maintain, as cacti require very little attention. Treat them wellThe most important part of decorating with houseplants is keeping them healthy. No matter how beautiful the display is, a dying plant will bring the rest of the room down. Take care of your greenery by sticking to a watering and pruning routine that is appropriate for the type of plant and by giving them as much sunlight as the species calls for. Cellular shades work well with houseplants because they let light in and can be kept closed while still displaying your flowers.
Spring cleaning may not be the most exciting thing that happens this time of year. Fortunately, there are easy ways for you to put a positive spin on the dreaded event so you can not only get your home in perfect condition, but have a great time cleaning!
Prepare to Conquer
Nothing provides more of a setback than not having the right equipment. Although this may not be the most exciting aspect of spring cleaning, making a list of what you'll need for each specific project will help avoid multiple trips to the store. If you do want to add a positive aspect to your preparation then consider investing in some cool tools. If you'd work better knowing you have the most advanced vacuum cleaner or the most stylish duster, then why not use something you'll appreciate to make the process more enjoyable?
Use Music as Motivation
Music is a great tool to get you pumped up and ready to clean! Make a playlist of your favorite songs and put it on shuffle so you'll be looking forward to the next song. If you enjoy dancing or are cleaning with your family, try adding in some fun dance songs to provide a much-needed break from cleaning every now and then. In addition to adding some positivity to what could be a long and dull process, you can get in a little extra workout from dancing and on-beat cleaning that you may not even realize you're doing!
Incorporate Unique Experiments
One way to make spring cleaning more intriguing for your children is adding some fun experiments to the mix. Cleaning comes down to a science, so including your children can provide a great learning experience. Some things you can try include making various concoctions that will clear your drain or using a blacklight to spot the dust and dirt that has built up in a room. You can also search online to find some more ideas that will not only benefit the cleanliness of your home, but will teach your children a thing or two about science in the process!
Add Some Family Fun
You can tackle larger cleaning items with the help of your family! For example, cleaning your decor can be much easier when you have a dedicated person working on each type of blind and shade. You can get more work done in a shorter period of time and you can have some fun working alongside your spouse, friend or child. In addition, you can consider adding incentives to motivate. Have a timer to see who can get the most done within an hour or see who is the best at dusting cabinets and reward the winner (and everyone else) with a sweet dessert!
Improve Your Home and Your Body
Did you know that only 30 minutes of general cleaning can burn around 130 calories? Everything from dusting to vacuuming can make a difference in your calorie count. This information also makes for great motivation to get the job done! Whether you'd rather break up your cleaning projects over a few days so you can have a week-long workout plan or if you're feeling strong and want to get it all done in one day, you can be assured that you will be able to notice a difference in your home and your fitness level by taking on this intense project!
With warmer temperatures slowly approaching, now is a great time to invest in cellular shades. Cellular shades are incredibly versatile and customizable, perfect for the transition to sunnier weather.
Cellular shades have a wide range of benefits. Despite the fact that they are soft-to-the-touch, cellular shades are sturdy and reliable. Cellular shades also offer excellent insulation during cool nights, but are still ideal for a clear outdoor view. Cellular shades are neat and compact, which makes them a great choice for any room.
There are three types of cellular shades that each have their own appeal. Top down-bottom up shades allow you to raise and lower the top and bottom of the shade for added convenience and easy positioning. Light filtering shades are great for letting in natural light while still providing privacy and insulation. Finally, blackout shades keep light out and maintain a warm comfort in areas like your bedroom and entertainment room.
Cellular shades come in a wide variety of options such as honeycomb styles. The shades can be purchased as either single or double honeycombs and in various sizes. Next, your shade's fabric can be light-filtering or room-darkening. Lastly, you can choose between three cord preferences - corded, cordless and motorized. Cordless are ideal for children due to their safety features.
Chandeliers were kind of a big deal back in the day - having one was the ultimate status symbol. Eventually, this form of overhead lighting came to be seen as a bit stodgy, unless it was in a historical mansion. Recently, however, cool new takes on the chandelier have been coming out in droves. It's a relatively inexpensive way to update nearly any room in the house, and the latest versions are cool and fresh. Image: Natasha Barrault DesignHere are two examples of neat chandeliers and what to do with them. From: Jill SorensenBrightly colored One version of the new and improved chandelier looks as though it was dipped in paint. It retains the same basic shape, but in a bold hue like poppy red or lemon zest. This style also tends to have fewer frills than the original - those hanging crystals are significantly more sparse in the modern overhead. A chromatic version is the perfect way to add a splash of color to a black-and-white room, particularly in a kitchen or above a dining room table. It goes nicely with clean shapes such as roman shades, modern chairs and glass tables.From: Pottery BarnEclectic materials For the funky tastemaker, a chandelier constructed out of unusual materials is the way to go. This ranges from chandeliers in rainbow glass to models made out of flatware. Many can be DIY projects, as long as the materials can stand up to some lightbulb heat. These styles are a unique way of expressing your interests. For example, a personalized chandelier can feature hanging globes instead of crystals, or vintage wine bottles as the structure. This version is perfect for a craft room or casual dining area.
5 Ways to Get Your Home Ready for Spring
With Daylight Savings coming up on March 8th, now is a great time to start planning how you're going to switch out your blinds and shades for sunnier weather. Whether it's adding a tropical influence or increasing the amount of natural light, we came up with several great ways for you to get your home ready for spring!
Add a Beachy Vibe
Bring the beach to you this spring with unique bamboo shades. Not only are these shades able to bring the beauty of nature indoors, but they are full of rich textures, beautiful colors and natural style. You can choose from a variety of patterns and options to showcase the art of bamboo weaving while meeting your home's needs. In addition, you can pair your bamboo shades with a liner to insulate your home during the impending rising temperatures.
Use a Unique Lighting Solution
Instead of installing sliding glass or patio doors, you can get the same natural lighting from vertical blinds. Not only are the blinds custom-made, but they are sturdy and soft. They can also be configured to run on various tracks such as one-way draw, opposite stack and more. Finally, vertical blinds can reflect harsh sunrays to protect your furniture and lower cooling costs.
Incorporate Versatile Spring Style
Cellular or honeycomb shades have a versatility that has led them to become the most stylish window coverings. Cellular shades can be raised in a neat and compact manner to allow for a great outdoor view - perfect for sunny spring days. These shades also come in several options including sheer, light-filtering and room-darkening to address your personal lighting desires. Cellular shades are soft and sturdy as well and can provide insulation on the cooler nights.
Increase the Exoctic Feel
If you love traveling and experiencing nature, wood blinds are the perfect way to amp up your home's natural beauty. There are several unique wood blind options including elite blinds that are of the best quality and distressed blinds that add a one-of-a-kind touch to your hardwood. If wood blinds are too much for you, you can instead choose to purchase faux wood blinds that have the same great look and feel without the higher price tag.
Utilize Mood Lighting
Not everyone may enjoy the sun's spring rays, making roller shades a great option! There are a range of colors, materials and weaves to choose from to match your interior design. One of the greatest aspects of roller shades is their light-blocking materials that allow them to control the light and protect you and your decor from sunlight. You can even pick the degree of light-blocking ranging from reduced glare and great views to opaque blackout shades.
With Valentine's Day right around the corner, why not give your blinds and shades some attention on this lovely holiday? We have some great tips on cleaning various types of blinds and shades so you can ensure that your décor is dust-free before spring cleaning season even starts!
Vertical Blinds
Vertical blinds can be dusted or vacuumed. The only thing to take note of with vertical blinds is the need to brush downwards. Vertical blind slats can come unhooked if you brush upwards, so maintain the downward motion to ensure your blinds are not only clean, but put together.
Honeycomb/Cellular Shades
These shades are not only energy-efficient, but they are also incredibly easy to clean. "Just use the dusting tool on your vacuum. Give them a once-over on low suction, and you're done," says Carolyn Forte, the director of the Good Housekeeping Research Institute Home Appliance and Cleaning Products department. If there are any residual stains after dusting, lightly blotting with a sponge, lukewarm water and mild dish detergent can lead to incredibly clean shades.
Wooden and Faux Wood Blinds
The blinds can be wet when removing dirt, but not soaked and should be cleaned in place versus removed. When dusting these blinds, consider how you would treat any other wooden furniture. For example, when dusting use a soft, clean cloth, chemically treated dust cloth or dusting glove. When dusting, it is also important to dust the front of the blinds while they are at full length and almost closed then reverse the slats and dust the other side while holding the bottom rail.
Roman Shades
If you want to clean your Roman shades like an expert, you can use two techniques - the soft dusting brush attachment of a vacuum on low suction or the brush attachment of a handheld vacuum. A cloth dipped in mild suds can be used to rinse and blot dry any pesky stains.
Metal and Vinyl Blinds
This method features some great cleaning tips - laying blinds on a piece of rug or carpet and using a car-washing brush dipped in dishwashing soap and water can be used to clean both sides of the blinds. The side-to-side brushing motion is then followed with a light rinsing while the blinds are tilted. Lastly, run your finger down the slats to prevent water spots.
Roller Shades
Even with the wide range of fabrics and textures available, a light once-over with a vacuum's soft brush tool and spot cleaning can do the trick. If you have classic vinyl roller shades, you can instead start at the bottom of the shades with a well-wrung cloth or sponge that has been dipped in a mixture of dishwashing detergent and lukewarm water and work your way up with a wiping motion. If that doesn't get your shades clean, you can wash both sides of your shades in a tub with a soft brush, soap and water. Always air-dry and re-hang roller shades.
Cleaning for All Types of Blinds
There are some cleaning tips that apply to all types of blinds. Using the brush attachment of a vacuum is an easy way to clean blinds and can be done often as long as you move side-to-side versus up and down. You can alternatively use a duster with the same side-to-side motion. Spots can be wiped away with an all-purpose cleaner on a dry cloth. Ultimately, the type of cleaning required depends on the amount of dust - a moist cloth may suffice for some and dry cleaning may be required for others.
Preventing dust and stain accumulation can be easier than expected by looking into what your unique blinds or shades require. Having a vacuum, duster and cloth on-hand is a great way to be prepared for minor cleanings that will give your blinds and shades some much-needed attention and prevent the need for a major spring cleaning.
We realize that blinds and shades are a crucial part of home decorating and design. We've come up with 7 different ways to use bamboo shades in your home. Whether concealing storage or creating warm spaces, investing in affordable window treatments is a great way to create that one-of-a-kind home space you've been dreaming of.

#2 - Colored (soft)
Lace typically comes in soft colors like white, ivory, cream, champagne, gray, and pastels. These hues will work very well for decorative curtains whose sole purpose is cosmetic. If you would like a more functional option, consider draping pale lace over a heavier dark-colored curtain. Your windows will be protected without the overall look feeling too harsh, and you can also play around with mixing textures.
#3 - Colored (bold)
Think outside of the box, and decorate with lace in any hue you want! From black to red to orange, colored lace curtains will make a romantic yet bold statement. These, too, can be layered over existing window treatments and would look beautiful with a pale silk curtain.
#4 - Patched
Why settle for plain lace when you can make a patchwork curtain using a variety of styles? By combining different textures and patterns, you're sure to create a unique and modern look that still pays homage to lace's vintage nature.
#5 - Patterned
Though lace is most commonly uses a floral pattern, the possibilities are endless. Tie in your room's existing theme by choosing lace featuring light houses, nursery rhymes, or even cats!
#6 - Embellished
Everyone needs a little bling in their life! If lace plus sparkle equals too much for you, consider an embellished tieback, or just add lace doilies at the base of your curtains.
#7 - Tiered
Layers of lace can work can together to create a beautiful, texture-heavy look that is sure to complement any room in your home. Tiered curtains have the added bonus of more privacy and light-blocking power.
#8 - Gathered
Choosing a pull-up style will give your windows a lot of visual interest, setting your curtains apart from the ordinary!
#9 - Netted
If florals aren't your thing, why not consider a netted or dotted lace instead? You'll still get the sheer window coverage that you desire, without over-the-top femininity. It's a great way to simply enhance an existing masculine look, such as basswood blinds or bamboo shades.
#10 - Trimmed
Make an already bold curtain stand out even more with a lace trim, or spruce up a plain curtain with a colored adornment. This is also a fun way to tie in color from a couch or accent rug, without it overwhelming the room.
#11 - Repurposed
No curtains? No problem! Create a vintage window treatment using an old tablecloth and your friends will not only be amazed by your new décor, but also by your craft skills.
#12 - Crocheted
If you're feeling super ambitious, crocheted lace curtains are a heavier, more substantial window covering that you can actually make yourself. Of course, if your list of New Year's resolutions does not include any DIY-projects, there are plenty of places to buy home-crafted curtains.
Whether you find yourself moving into your very first - and extremely tiny - apartment, or you're preparing a new home for your family, there's one piece of home decor that is always going to be a necessity: curtains.
There's the obvious use for curtains as traditional window coverings, adding a bit of a flair to an otherwise dull space. But if you get a little creative, you can use curtains for a variety of different things, from hiding an unsightly closet to creating a little more privacy in your sleeping area.
First and foremost, a great set of curtains can truly brighten up a living space. But if you're dealing with a small room, it's best to choose drapery with minimal print or none at all. This is where going with something like the Advantage Plus Drapery Panels is your best option because of the multitude of colors to choose from. Payless Decor also makes it easy to select the perfect size curtains. Simply measure your windows and plug in the measurements after selecting a color.
Just remember: when you're deciding on a color for your curtains, make sure it doesn't conflict with your other decor. If you have neutral-colored furniture, you can get a little crazy with the curtain colors. Have bright furniture? Opt for off-white or any other muted color instead.
Anyone who's ever discovered the difficulty of having to decorate a small space - be it a studio apartment or a one-person bedroom that needs to be made into a two-person bedroom - knows how important curtains can be. No one likes to have their privacy encroached upon, especially when they're sleeping.
With some cable wire and screw-in hooks, a studio apartment can be transformed into a pseudo-bedroom and living room. And if you're wanting extra privacy, be sure to order curtains with a blackout lining instead of a regular, sheer lining.
Aside from letting you decide when you want light to shine through your household windows, curtains can give you even more coverage when placed over sliding doors. Even if you have curtains over all your windows, you still might find yourself in an overly bright area and may need even more ways to block out the sun. Or maybe sun isn't the issue, and you're just looking for some extra privacy. Either way, sheer, white curtains or a solid neutral will look best in front of sliding doors.
Another way to brighten up a space while also making your room look tidier? Hiding areas like open closets or a washer and dryer with fun, brightly-colored curtains. No one wants all their belongings out on display, but installing a door is just too much trouble. Attach a curtain rod to your wall, hang a curtain that matches your room's decor, and voila - a simple, yet chic way to make your space look more put together.
This technique can be used in a multitude of situations. Have a washer and dryer set that sticks out like a sore thumb? Put a curtain in front of it. Have a certain area of your living room that your child loves to play in so it's constantly in disarray? Put a curtain in front of it.
Decorating your new space can be a difficult task, but because of the versatility of curtains, it doesn't have to be.
Well, the holidays are here and you know what that means…holiday parties! 'Tis the season for entertaining, from family functions to social soirees. As fun as these gatherings can be, even the most well-behaved house guest can accidentally wreak havoc on your home. It seems that many party staples have great stain-producing potential and, combined with holiday high heels, you're just asking for trouble. That is, unless you've invested in a never-ending supply of Saturn wine glasses.
Cranberry sauce, red wine, hot chocolate, and more… it's just a matter of time 'til they end up on your floor! In a perfect world, your clumsy companion spills their drink right on this multi-colored rug's wine-colored squares, but most of us aren't so lucky and something like this rug usually catches the Cabernet instead.
So, how can you prevent a spill from ruining your night? Luckily, many stains can be removed with a combination of common household items. The faster you tackle a stain, the better your chances of removing it, so being able to utilize nearby materials definitely sets you up for success.
Check out these stain-specific treatments:
The Stain: Cranberry Sauce
The Solution: White Vinegar and Rubbing Alcohol
After scooping up any solids left behind, mix together vinegar with rubbing alcohol and pour it over the stain. Blot until all liquid is absorbed, then repeat as needed.
The Stain: Red Wine
The Solution: Detergent and White Vinegar or Club Soda, Dish Soap, and Hydrogen Peroxide
Recipe #2 is especially efficient! Immediately pouring club soda on the stain will prevent it from setting, then you can quickly mix a batch of soap and hydrogen peroxide. It's important that you soak up as much of the wine as possible before applying the cleaning solution. Use paper towels to press (not rub) and repeat until the carpet is nearly dry. Then, soak the stain with the solution and repeat the paper towel process.
The Stain: Hot Chocolate
The Solution: Ammonia, Detergent, and Hydrogen Peroxide
Again, it is important to soak up the stain prior to treating the carpet. Hot chocolate is a little trickier to tackle, but following the directions above should get the job done! If not, you can soak the stain with hydrogen peroxide, let stand for 1 hour, then try again.
The Stain: Coffee
The Solution: White Vinegar, Detergent, and Hydrogen Peroxide
You know the drill by now: blot, soak, blot some more! This time, you'll want to add white vinegar to your combination of soap and hydrogen peroxide.
The Stain: Soft Drinks
The Solution: Detergent and White Vinegar
Since soft drinks have their own bubbles, you'll just need soap and white vinegar to treat this stain. Soak up the excess liquid then sponge the carpet with a small amount of cleaning solution, making sure to blot dry each time. Repeat until the soda says sayonara!
The Stain: Candle Wax
The Solution: Ice, Iron, Shampoo, and Rubbing Alcohol
If your candlelight dinner turns to a candle wax disaster, you'll have a little more work to do in order to get rid of this stain. First, use an ice cube to harden the wax, then scrape it up with a dull knife. Cover the area with a thin towel and apply a hot iron to absorb the remaining wax. Shampoo the carpet, let it dry, then vacuum to remove any remaining pieces.
Here's hoping that your holiday parties remain spill-free and, should accidents occur, that these home treatments act quickly. If nothing works, at least you're on your way to a DIY version of this artsy rug!

Divers are all drawn to this basic yet comfortable hotel. With its on-site dive shop, there's no wait for some of the best diving in the world. Rooms are clean and simple, and it's a short walk to Front Street's other restaurants. The resort's restaurant is the best on the island. You can relax with yoga sessions or party with the locals at the Sunday sail and kayak races or Thursday night's "pit party," with roasted meats and music. The Ike and Donkey Beach Bar adds to the fun.

We went to Grand Turk the first week of December, 2009. We've been to the TCI several times and were looking for a pure rest and relaxation vacation away from the crowds and relative hustle of Grace Bay. Although it took 26 hours of travel to get there, Bohio made every second worth the trip! The proprietors. Kely Shanahan and Gerhardt are wonderful hosts and made us feel like old friends. The food prepared with outstanding taste by Chef Ulrike was
incredible (note, it helps if you love seafood and especially lobster!). The rooms are comfortable,clean and air conditioned although certainly not luxurious. Apart from the ambience and the food, the best part of Bohio is the exquisite talcum powder beach and aquamarine waters. If you want luxuey and/or "action" keep looking. But if you want a small, boutique resort with the atmosphere of close friends and great food, all ata great price, this may well be the place for you. As for us, as long as we have stressful jobs, we wil do our best to become regulars at Bohio.

If you are the type of person like myself who appreciates places off the beaten path but still with some nice amenities, then Grand Turk and Bohio are for you. Mike and his staff went out of their way to make my trip a memorable one. Great diving close to shore, small hotel but still with wireless Internet in the lobby area and nice food, nice beach. Grand Turk itself is charming and removed from the built up tourist experience of Provo. This would
also be a fun place for a dive group to stay.
No Thanks

Course overview
The Graduate Diploma Writing and Literature is designed to balance theoretical understandings with practical skills development. By providing a cross-disciplinary alternative, the Graduate Diploma of Writing and Literature will provide students with the opportunity to draw on the extensive range of units available across these specialisations.
Fees and charges
Fee paying place - International (IFP)
A fee paying place is one for which the University does not receive any government funding. As such, students enrolled in these places are required to contribute the full cost of their course.
Fees for international students apply to persons living in Australia with Temporary Resident status, provided that there is no limitation on study and persons living abroad who are not Australian citizens and do not have Permanent Resident status in Australia.
Equivalent Full Time Student Load (EFTSL)
EFTSL is the standard annual full time load. Eight credit points is the standard full time load for one year of study.
* The 'indicative annual course fee' cited has been provided as a guide only. It has been calculated on the basis of a typical enrolment of a student undertaking the course in 2015, and reflects the cost involved in undertaking a full-time quota of units within the specified discipline.
The actual fees charged by Deakin University will depend upon the discipline from which each individual unit is chosen, and may vary from the indicative course fee cited, particularly if units are chosen from a number of disciplines. The cost of each unit offered in 2015 can be viewed from the Unit Search.
Please note that the fees per unit/credit point may increase annually due to rises in the cost of course delivery and service.
Deakin assumes no responsibility for persons relying on 'indicative course fees' to calculate the total future cost of their course.
Career opportunities
Graduates of this course will find employment opportunities in a broad range of organisations or will be able to pursue freelance or self-employment opportunities. The course provides professional development opportunities for those already employed in publishing, education, library services as well as published authors. Throughout the course, students will be exposed, not just to knowledge of writing and literature, but also to practices and ways of understanding writing as a cross-disciplinary activity which intersects with other creative and communication fields in digital, promotional and multimedia landscapes.

A prize for Hezbollah
No one will fail to rejoice with the Tennenbaum family over the news of the impending release of their loved one, nor will anyone fail to sympathize with the emotions of the Avitan, Avraham and Suwad families over finally being able to bring their sons to burial in Israel. But despite this, the principles underlying the deal between Israel and Hezbollah merit harsh criticism.
No one will fail to rejoice with the Tennenbaum family over the news of the impending release of their loved one, nor will anyone fail to sympathize with the emotions of the Avitan, Avraham and Suwad families over finally being able to bring their sons to burial in Israel. But despite this, the principles underlying the deal between Israel and Hezbollah for the exchange of prisoners and bodies merit harsh criticism.
In October 2000, Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah altered the status of his organization's relationship with the State of Israel. Only a few months before, the Israel Defense Forces had left south Lebanon, redeployed along the international border and liquidated the South Lebanon Army, an IDF-backed militia.
This was an achievement for Hezbollah, in the eyes of the Palestinians, as well. But Israel still held Lebanese prisoners, including some who were kidnapped during special operations deep in Lebanese territory in an effort to obtain information about the fate of missing navigator Ron Arad or to further a deal for his return. Therefore, Nasrallah decided to kidnap Israelis and make a different deal that would be better for Hezbollah.
The deal to be implemented this week, after protracted negotiations, crowns Nasrallah as the victor. When you peel away the trivia and the details, it has only one meaning: Following Nasrallah's success in kidnapping four Israelis, of whom one remains alive and the other three were killed, Israel has agreed to do what it refused to do before the kidnappings, while receiving neither Ron Arad nor any reliable information about him in exchange. The lesson - and Ariel Sharon would certainly not miss the opportunity to say so if he were leader of the opposition rather than prime minister - is that it pays to strike at Israel, whether through kidnappings, terror attacks or war, in order to reverse its refusals.
The outcome is also problematic and depressing from the internal Lebanese perspective, since it indicates that Israel is abandoning its demand that the sovereign Lebanese government impose its authority on an armed organization. And it is even graver because of the regional context within which Nasrallah manipulated Sharon. Nasrallah did not make do with releasing a couple of dozen Lebanese prisoners, first and foremost Mustafa Dirani and Abdel Karim Obeid. He also got Israel to accept his demand for the release of hundreds of Palestinians, dozens of other Arab nationals and two Europeans who aided Hezbollah.
This will contribute directly to strengthening the militant wing of Palestinian society - that same wing that defeated the moderates in internal disputes in the summer of 2000. Aid from Hezbollah - via, among others, the Israeli Arab who helped entrap Elhanan Tennenbaum - is one of the factors behind many of the attacks carried out by Palestinian organizations, including Fatah's Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades.
Sharon and his government have a responsibility toward Arad and his family, toward the families of the three soldiers who fell victim to the ambush at Har Dov and, to a lesser extent, toward a civilian who landed himself in Hezbollah's trap. But they are also responsible for exercising judgment that weighs the private sighs of relief heaved by the Tennenbaum family and the families who will now be able to bury their loved ones in Israel, against the fear that this terrible deal will encourage Palestinians and others to take action against Israel in order to realize their national, religious or familial aspirations.

ORLEANS-With a four game wining streak under their belts, the Lake Region Rangers looked to continue the trend. Visiting Danville had other ideas as they pulled away late for a 63-57 victory. The Indian backcourt had their way with the Rangers guards as Kyle Johnson and Scott Remick combined for 41 points for Danville. The tandem forced numerous turnovers, laying the groundwork for the Indians' eleventh win of the year.
WESTMORE–With perfect weather conditions and lightly falling snow to accent the mood, the North Country Nordic teams had a great day at the races on Saturday.
The Falcon girls won the race with a score of 22, besting hosts St. Johnsbury and two other teams to earn the win. The NCU boys came in third with a score of 49 behind St. Johnsbury in first and Burlington in second.
DERBY – A routine oil delivery at a home in Derby yesterday turned out to be anything but routine when the truck slid off a private driveway and tipped over.
Derby Line Fire Chief Craig Ellam identified the driver as Paul Gervais of Irving Oil in Littleton, N.H.
The Derby Line Fire Department responded to the scene around 11:22 a.m. Property owner David LaBelle arrived at his home, located on Route 111, just after the truck flipped over. LaBelle, who is on automatic oil delivery service, was not aware he would be getting an oil delivery and didn't prepare his driveway.
NEWPORT CITY – Diane Peel, a member of the 99 Percent and the Vermont Workers Center, encouraged Vermont lawmakers to support bills H.97 and S.29 at Monday's Legislative Breakfast. Â
SEYMOUR LAKE - A game warden drove his snowmobile into a woman on her sled because he thought she was trying to get away from him.
Game Warden Jason Dukette was patrolling Seymour Lake Sunday afternoon when he saw Marsha Archer, of Derby, on her way out to an ice fishing shack. According to Albert Stringer, an investigating Auxiliary Trooper for the State Police, Dukette said he thought Archer was trying to avoid him so he headed her way quickly. He did not turn his lights on, Acher said. Stringer confirmed that no lights were turned on.
ORLEANS-They say most times you learn more from a loss than a win. That will probably be the case as Coach Mark Tinker's valiant Ranger girls gave 12-1 Oxbow everything they wanted and more before falling 45-41 at the Don Harter Gymnasium over the weekend.

To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
One-half of the legendary hip-hop duo EPMD, Erick Sermon was also among the genre's most prominent producers, deservedly earning the alias "Funklord" with his trademark raw, bass-heavy grooves. Born in Bayshore, NY, on November 25, 1968, Sermon — aka E Double, the Green-Eyed Bandit, and MC Grand Royal — teamed with rapper Parrish Smith in 1986 to form EPMD, an acronym for "Erick and Parrish Making Dollars"; signing to the tiny Sleeping Bag label, they soon released their debut 12", "It's My Thing," which went on to sell an astounding 500,000 copies. In the years to follow, EPMD emerged as one of rap's most vital acts, their hard-edged beats and Sermon's mumbled, monotone delivery becoming a great influence on the burgeoning gangsta movement. In addition to producing their own material, the duo also helmed records for the extended family of performers dubbed the Hit Squad, whose ranks included Redman, K Solo, and Das EFX. In early 1993, EPMD disbanded, and Sermon soon resurfaced with his solo debut, No Pressure; he also became a sought-after producer and remixer, working with everyone from En Vogue to Blackstreet to Shaquille O'Neal. After a second solo effort, 1995's Double or Nothing, he and Smith reformed EPMD in 1997, releasing the LP Back in Business.
