Joplin, MO
A mosque was set afire.
Independence, MO
Charles Wilhelm, 23, was sentenced to 3 1/2 years in prison for conspiracy and violating the Fair Housing Act after he vandalized a biracial man's mobile home with racial slurs in June 2006 and then burned it two days later.
Legal Developments
Cape Girardeau, MO
A Missouri teen pleaded guilty to a hate crime Monday months after she and her friends severely beat her gay neighbor. Mercedes Ayers was charged with third-degree assault motivated by discrimination for physically attacking 41-year-old Jeana Terry outside her Cape Girardeau home, the Southeast Missourian reported. The 17-year-old went to Terry's house on July 24th and grabbed her by the arm when she opened the door. Ayers, her two younger siblings, and several friends kicked and punched Terry while shouting homophobic slurs, leaving her with bruising, nausea and dizziness, according to the local paper. In the months following the attack, Ayers denied targeting Terry because of her sexual orientation. The teen said that she went to Terry's home in response to an altercation she had with Terry and Terry's partner, Lisa Lange, the day of incident. Ayers, however, entered a guilty plea Monday in an agreement that required prosecutors to drop a more serious first-degree burglary charge which carried a maximum 10-year prison sentence.

The 20-year-old defender, whose breakthrough campaign last term earned him England honours, has joined the likes of Ross Barkley and Seamus Coleman in committing to Everton.
Now his goal is to help Everton improve on last year's fifth place even as they juggle Europa League commitments this time around.
"With the lads we've got on board from last season we can only better ourselves," Stones said. "It will be a very exciting season and the work we've done in the background has been very positive so far. We're very focused in what we want this season and in Europe. We want to better ourselves and I've said before the top five, top four, that's what we're aiming for. It's key that we're all on the same wavelength."

The memory of Sir Frank Whittle, the 'Father of the Jet Age', is kept alive at the show again – not just in the sophisticated versions of the jet engine he first designed, but with a tribute.
The tribute has been a feature of the Farnborough airshow since 1996, the year Sir Frank died. Co-sponsored by baggage handling specialist Alstec and the Midland Air Museum at Coventry Airport, the tribute features the achievements of the man whose invention launched the jet age on 15 May 1941.
At the centrepiece of the exhibit as in past years is an engine similar to that used for the maiden flight. This year the exhibit includes artwork, a copy of the painting 'Millennium of Flight' by Aviation Guild of Artists member Peter Sumpter.
Alstec (formerly Alstrom Automation) operates from the original site of Whittle's Power Jets business at Whetstone in Leicestershire. The company says it's proud of its connection to Whittle and hence delighted to fund the exhibition.
Publicity manager John Smith says: "We're located in the shadow of the BAE Systems media village – very much the future of the aviation industry. It's great that a few steps away people can remember the early days and the events which have shaped our lives."
In another project to create a permanent memorial, enthusiasts – with the support of Rolls-Royce which has given workshop space – are building two models of the original jet-propelled E28/39 aircraft. One will grace Farnborough and the other will be located at Coventry Airport.

Secrets of Activating Your Consumer Segmentation
Webinar Description
In this nuts-and-bolts webinar, Scott Turner, S.V.P. of Agency/Advertiser Sales at GfK MRI will be joined by Dr. Lauren Tucker, Director of Consumer Forensics and Dr. Eamon Boyle, Director of Advanced Model and Research Design at The Martin Agency.
Together, they will show how "activating" a consumer segmentation study can pay big dividends-if you go about it in the right way.
Topics include:
- Why pricey segmentation studies often come up short in delivering on their promise. Marketers interview a lot of people, put them in buckets and then are forced to say:"Interesting, but now what do I do?"
- How to unlock your segmentation's hidden value and make sure your agencies can target the same consumers as your sales and marketing teams.
- A real world example: BFGoodrich, who used the approach discussed in this Webinar to ensure their customer segmentation was in sync with how they buy media.
- How to identify your consumer segments for online display campaigns through a unique GfK MRI/DataLogix collaboration
Drawing on their extensive experience in creating and activating consumer segmentation studies, Scott, Lauren and Dr. Boyle will provide insights you should not miss.
This session will be lively and interactive, with attendees encouraged to ask questions.
Webinars are for ANA Members Only. If you are a non-member, client-side marketer interested in attending a specific session, please email email@example.com to request a one-time, complimentary guest registration.

California firm to sell China-made electric cars
In California, CODA's sedan will retail for $44,900, or $32,400 after a $7,500 federal tax credit and a $5,000 state government credit, said Forrest Beanum, CODA's vice president for communications.
Major U.S. rental companies Hertz Corp. and Enterprise Rent-a-Car say they will offer CODA electric sedans for rent.
CODA and Chang'an Hafei are discussing whether the Chinese partner might sell a version of the electric sedan in China, Murtaugh said.
The Chinese government has targeted electric cars in industrial development plans that call for China to create its own profitable technologies.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said last year Beijing will invest 100 billion yuan ($15 billion) over the next decade to make China a leader in alternative energy vehicles.
In the United States, CODA says it might open a battery factory in Ohio if can obtain $400 million in aid from the U.S. Department of Energy.
Among other electric car makers, Irvine, California-based Fisker Automotive says it will start selling its luxury Karma model in China this year through a local partner.

ABSTRACT: Protein methylation is a common posttranslational modification that mostly occurs on arginine and lysine residues. Arginine methylation has been reported to regulate RNA processing, gene transcription, DNA damage repair, protein translocation, and signal transduction. Lysine methylation is best known to regulate histone function and is involved in epigenetic regulation of gene transcription. To better study protein methylation, we have developed highly specific antibodies against monomethyl arginine, asymmetric dimethyl arginine, and monomethyl, dimethyl, and trimethyl lysine motifs respectively. These antibodies were used to perform immunoaffinity purification (IAP) of methyl peptides followed by LC-MS/MS analysis to identify and quantify arginine and lysine methylation sites in several model studies. Overall, we identified over 1000 arginine methylation sites in human cell lines and mouse tissues, and approximately 160 lysine methylation sites in human cell line HCT116. The methylation sites that were identified in this study exceed those found in the literature to date. Detailed analysis of arginine-methylated proteins observed in mouse brain compared to those found in mouse embryo shows tissue-specific distribution of arginine methylation, and extends the type of proteins that are known to be arginine methylated to many new protein types. Many arginine-methylated proteins that we identified from the brain including receptors, ion channels, transporters, and vesicle proteins, are involved in synaptic transmission, while the most abundant methylated proteins identified from mouse embryo are transcriptional regulators and RNA processing proteins.Molecular & Cellular Proteomics 10/2013; 13(1).

ABSTRACT: Activating mutations of FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) are found in approximately 30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). FLT3 is therefore an attractive drug target. However, the molecular mechanisms by which FLT3 mutations lead to cell transformation in AML remain unclear. To develop a better understanding of FLT3 signaling as well as its downstream effectors, we performed detailed phosphoproteomic analysis of FLT3 signaling in human leukemia cells. We identified over 1000 tyrosine phosphorylation sites from about 750 proteins in both AML (wild type and mutant FLT3) and B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (normal and amplification of FLT3) cell lines. Furthermore, using stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), we were able to quantified over 400 phosphorylation sites (pTyr, pSer, and pThr) that were responsive to FLT3 inhibition in FLT3 driven human leukemia cell lines. We also extended this phosphoproteomic analysis on bone marrow from primary AML patient samples, and identify over 200 tyrosine and 800 serine/threonine phosphorylation sites in vivo. This study showed that oncogenic FLT3 regulates proteins involving diverse cellular processes and affects multiple signaling pathways in human leukemia that we previously appreciated, such as Fc epsilon RI-mediated signaling, BCR, and CD40 signaling pathways. It provides a valuable resource for investigation of oncogenic FLT3 signaling in human leukemia.PLoS ONE 04/2011; 6(4):e19169. DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0019169 · 3.53 Impact Factor
Article: Phospho-proteomic analysis of mantle cell lymphoma cells suggests a pro-survival role of B-cell receptor signaling[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is currently an incurable entity, and new therapeutic approaches are needed. We have applied a high-throughput phospho-proteomic technique to MCL cell lines to identify activated pathways and we have then validated our data in both cell lines and tumor tissues. PhosphoScan analysis was performed on MCL cell lines. Results were validated by flow cytometry and western blotting. Functional validation was performed by blocking the most active pathway in MCL cell lines. PhosphoScan identified more than 300 tyrosine-phosporylated proteins, among which many protein kinases. The most abundant peptides belonged to proteins connected with B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling. Active BCR signaling was demonstrated by flow cytometry in MCL cells and by western blotting in MCL tumor tissues. Blocking BCR signaling by Syk inhibitor piceatannol induced dose/time-dependent apoptosis in MCL cell lines, as well as several modifications in the phosphorylation status of BCR pathway members and a collapse of cyclin D1 protein levels. Our data support a pro-survival role of BCR signaling in MCL and suggest that this pathway might be a candidate for therapy. Our findings also suggest that Syk activation patterns might be different in MCL compared to other lymphoma subtypes.03/2011; 34(2):141-53. DOI:10.1007/s13402-011-0019-7

ABSTRACT: Cholangiocarcinoma, also known as bile duct cancer, is the second most common primary hepatic carcinoma with a median survival of less than 2 years. The molecular mechanisms underlying the development of this disease are not clear. To survey activated tyrosine kinases signaling in cholangiocarcinoma, we employed immunoaffinity profiling coupled to mass spectrometry and identified DDR1, EPHA2, EGFR, and ROS tyrosine kinases, along with over 1,000 tyrosine phosphorylation sites from about 750 different proteins in primary cholangiocarcinoma patients. Furthermore, we confirmed the presence of ROS kinase fusions in 8.7% (2 out of 23) of cholangiocarcinoma patients. Expression of the ROS fusions in 3T3 cells confers transforming ability both in vitro and in vivo, and is responsive to its kinase inhibitor. Our data demonstrate that ROS kinase is a promising candidate for a therapeutic target and for a diagnostic molecular marker in cholangiocarcinoma. The identification of ROS tyrosine kinase fusions in cholangiocarcinoma, along with the presence of other ROS kinase fusions in lung cancer and glioblastoma, suggests that a more broadly based screen for activated ROS kinase in cancer is warranted.PLoS ONE 01/2011; 6(1):e15640.

MOVIE REVIEW: Third 'Twilight' film better, but not by much
The bookend scenes of placid puppy-love set in a sunbathed field of lavender and lilies that more resemble a Hallmark ad than a vampire movie is an ideal indicator regarding the content of "Eclipse." This isn't a dangerous occult franchise populated with the undead and shape-shifters steeped in lust and forbidden love, it's a six-hour collection of featherweight Abercrombie & Fitch commercials.

Exercises with elastic resistance more effective than passive shockwave treatment
Are elastic resistance squats better than free weight squats?
The squat exercise is used primarily for hip and knee strengthening. It is considered one of the most fundamental strengthening exercises for strength and power in the legs. Elastic bands have been used to add resistance to the squat exercise while using barbell free weights to offer more dynamic resistance at the top of the […]
Elastic resistance exercise safe and effective for kidney failure patients on dialysis
The kidneys serve an important function in filtering the blood. Patients with severe kidney disease or kidney failure don't have the ability to clean their blood. This condition is known as end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and often requires hemodialysis that cleans the blood with a machine. In 2006, over 500,000 Americans had ESRD, with over […]
Both Thera-Band and Aquafins resistance improve strength and overall health
It has been well-established that resistance training improves muscular strength and physical capacity. Other health-related benefits include reduction of body fat and improvement in blood lipids. In addition to traditional isotonic resistance training (free weights, machines), elastic bands and aquatic resistance can be used for strengthening exercises. Research shows that elastic resistance produces the same […]

The debate of elastic resistance versus isotonic resistance Elastic resistance is commonly used in rehabilitation exercises, and has been shown to increase strength and function in over 100 randomized controlled trials (www.thera-bandacademy.com). Even with this amount of clinical evidence, elastic resistance is sometimes criticized because of the difficulty in quantifying intensity. Despite the fact […]
Proprioceptive Exercises: Are they effective?
Neuromuscular and proprioceptive exercises are increasing in popularity during rehabilitation following sports injuries such as ankle sprains and ACL tears. These interventions typically include balance exercises such as Thera-Band® kicks and balance board training.

Early Thera-Band® strengthening for rotator cuff tear repair may speed recovery
The rotator cuff is crucial for proper function of the shoulder and activities of daily living (ADL). Full-thickness rotator cuff tears require surgical repair and a lengthy recovery, often lasting 6 months or more. Early physical therapy exercises are very conservative, focusing more on allowing the repair to heal. For fear of re-injury, dynamic resistance […]
Thera-Band® program helps improve lower extremity strength and biomechanics in female athletes
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears occur in about one in every 3000 Americans; 80% of these injuries are non-contact, often requiring surgical reconstruction.

Standardizing textbooks won't save money and will threaten instructors' autonomy, complain faculty at Tarrant County College in Fort Worth,Texas, reports Inside Higher Ed. The faculty association voted 714-54 to reject the board's plan.
Instructors in each department will select a common text or e-text for each course that will be used across Tarrant County College's five campuses. The hope is that textbook costs will go down and students will learn more as the college buys books in bulk, encourages cheaper options and pushes open-source and other online materials.
Tarrant County faculty asked for time to develop "meaningful, realistic strategies for reducing student textbook costs " by the fall of 2014.
Community colleges are looking for ways to cut textbook costs in response to surveys in which students say they're trying to get by without buying required books. The average community college student spends nearly $3,000 on tuition and more than $1,000 for textbooks and supplies, estimates College Board.

Garrett Graham
Wisconsin Senior
PROS: Has good hands and uses his body well to shield defender away from the ball. Has the speed to challenge downfield and gets a good release off the line. Has good brust and quickness and shows potential as a route-runner. Can be a physical runner after the catch. Blocks well downfield, and can get the seal on the linebacker on the edge.
CONS: Needs to get stronger as a blocker and improve his technique. Will overextend at times and lose leverage at the point of attack.
OVERVIEW: Continues steady tradition of solid ex-Badger tight ends in the league. A three-year starter that split the past two years with Travis Beckum, and his last year working across from Lance Kendricks. Had best year as a senior with 51 catches and 7 scores. He works mainly as their inline regular tight end rather than H-back.
NFL FORECAST: Graham is a similar player to Owen Daniels, another ex-Badger. He probably fits best as an H-back on the next level because he doesn't have great size and is not yet big or strong enough to be a consistent factor as an inline tight end. But if he can bulk up and improve his blocking, he shouldn't be a liability there. The key to his success will be his receiving ability. And in the right offense he can be very productive. I don't think he'll be as good as Daniels has been in recent years, but he should be a guy that can give a team 30-50 catches on a fairly consistent basis each year. He won't be a go-to weapon, but a nice third option for most NFL offenses. He is a good player that should be an above average to good NFL tight end.
ATL FORECAST: Graham could come to Atlanta and be a nice successor to Tony Gonzalez. Like Gonzo, he won't ever be a top blocker, but should be competent enough to start and play every down with a few years in an NFL weight room. Again, he won't be a go-to option for Matt Ryan in the Falcons offense, but could be a nice outlet receiver. If he can improve his route-running, he could be a matchup problem for a lot of NFL defenses, and a reliable option to have on third downs.
VALUE: Graham should be a solid starter that should go in the third or fourth round.
1-poor, 2-weak, 3-above average, 4-very good, 5-elite

Well I assure you I am not upset, I actually find it quite comical that so many people took what I said out of context. I was not suggesting that because I am from America my authority over grammar is superior to anyone else's, I was merely retorting to the fool's suggestion that I need "study" the syntax of another country's language before pointing out what I believed to be a flaw. It's not like the two of us speak a different language, how was I to know it was correct somewhere else.

The Branch Davidians
One of the most tragic and controversial incidents in Texas history occurred in 1993 at a compound known as Mt. Carmel on a ranch near Waco. The compound was occupied by the Branch Davidians, a heavily armed religious cult led by a charismatic guru named David Koresh. Spurred by allegations of child abuse inside the compound, federal agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms attempted to serve a warrant on February 28, 1993, only to find themselves in a massive firefight, during which several agents and Davidians were killed. A fifty-day siege ensued, culminating on April 19 with a nationally televised assault on the compound with armored vehicles and tear gas. During the assault, a fire consumed the entire compound, killing 74 people, 23 of whom were children.
In 1997, an Emmy award-winning documentary, Waco: The Rules of Engagement, called into question the government's version of events and the poor judgment that led to the standoff and the eventual disaster. A subsequent investigation by former U.S. Senator John C. Danforth determined that the fire had been set by the Davidians themselves, though his report was also critical of the decision-making by federal authorities as well as the lack of candor in the aftermath of the tragedy.
The disaster at Mt. Carmel became a rallying cry for some of the far-right of the political spectrum; the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City, for example, occurred on the second anniversary of the tragedy. Ten years after the fire, in 2003, Texas Monthly senior editor Michael Hall visited a new church that had been constructed at Mt. Carmel and interviewed the small group of Davidians who still followed the sect's apocalyptic vision. In 2008, executive editor Pam Colloff interviewed dozens of eyewitnesses to the siege and produced a definitive oral history of one of the most infamous events in Texas history.
A blundered raid and a botched finale don't change an essential fact about the Mount Carmel standoff: David Koresh is to blame.
On April 19, 1993, the world watched as the Branch Davidian compound, outside Waco, burned to the ground after a 51-day standoff. Fifteen years later, witnesses and participants—from federal agents to loyal followers of David Koresh—remember what they saw during the deadliest law enforcement operation in U.S. history.
Ten years after eighty Davidians died in a government-led siege, a few surviving members of the sect have returned to the plains east of Waco, looking for something. And, in some cases, waiting for David Koresh to return.
More than anyone, former assistant to the U.S. attorney Bill Johnston was responsible for exposing the FBI's lies about the final assault on the Branch Davidian compound. Why, then, did his own government go after him?
Senior editor Michael Hall revisits Waco's Branch Davidians and describes the challenges and nuances of writing about the remaining followers and the controversies of their tragic history.
He was no William Barrett Travis, but in many ways, the leader of the Brand Davidians was an archetypal Texan to the end.
Four quickie Branch Davidian books reveal that the full story has yet to come out.

The U.S. State Department reports that the U.A.E. has made significant progress in eliminating the problems. Dubai also introduced the robot jockeys two years ago to replace the boys. The first jockeys were modeled after humans (one guidebook compared them to C-3PO dressed as a jockey), but those gave way to the smaller and lighter (five to six pounds) robots now used. The robots haven't completely replaced human jockeys -- some camel trainers remain old school -- and enough controversy still surrounds the sport that race schedules aren't so much announced as spread on a Fight Club-type circuit: News gets around to the right people by word of mouth.
Of course, even robot jockeys seem tame compared with the construction visible beyond the track.
Cranes work atop a cluster of a dozen buildings ranging as high as 40 and 60 stories, with one, the Burj Dubai, towering far above them all. The Burj Dubai will be the tallest building in the world when completed, though no one outside of the developers knows exactly how tall that is … and the developers aren't saying. You hear a lot of rumors about the Burj Dubai. It is growing at a floor a day. … No, construction has halted while the developers wait to see how tall a building in another country will be so that they can be certain to make the Burj Dubai taller. … It will be 2,300 feet high. It will be 160 stories high. … No, an image on its official Web site shows a graphic of an elevator button for a 194th floor. According to the Web site, the Burj Dubai is already at least 120 floors and 1,450 feet high and, from the comparisons shown, it appears it will be twice as high as the Empire State Building.
And this is only one slice of Dubai's vast construction. Trucks and cement mixers shuttle 24/7 on and off Palm Islands, a series of man-made islands in the shape of a giant palm tree (with a total land mass larger than Manhattan) due for completion next year. Another project under way, The World, will be a series of 250 more such islands forming the shape of -- what else? -- the Earth's continents. There is Dubai Sports City, Meydan horse city and Dubailand theme park. There is even a skyscraper that will rotate approximately 50 degrees a day to eventually give every resident the same view in the course of a week.
People think Las Vegas is growing fast? Dubai is Vegas on steroids.
And to think that 50 years ago, Dubai was nothing more than a town of several thousand people and a few scattered buildings surrounded by sand and desert. As recently as 1981, the population was only 250,000. It has swelled to 1.3 million now, with thousands more pouring in every month.
"We used to come here back when there was only one road and nobody on it," says Mark Johnston, who has been training horses for Sheikh Mohammed since the mid-'90s. "The Trade Center was the landmark. There was nothing else around."
If the Seattle SuperSonics asked Dubai to build them a $500 million arena, it would respond: Great. How high do you want the sky suites?
"Great. Now we have to wait another hour for the next race," a British woman in her early 20s complains along the rail as she watches Vengeance of Rain sprint past for a win. "I am sooooo bored."
"Mummy has bought us a bottle of champagne," the young man next to her says. "Let's go see Mummy."

The music scene at the start of 1975 must have seemed so bleak! I love it when articles like this get recalled and are so patently wrong on a grand scale.

I started some tomato plants and wonder how soon I can put them outside. What time do you think is right?
I find that I get this question often, every year. Tomatoes are a warm-weather crop that require warm soil and nighttime temps of 50 to 55 degrees. I think it's pretty early to have seedlings ready to plant, unless you have a greenhouse, or have the right conditions in your home. Plants started too early become "leggy" and weak stemmed. I would suggest you plant the seeds around mid-April, then wait to put them out around the first or second week of June.
There is a small tree in my garden that has been bent to the ground on several occasions this winter by heavy, wet snow. Several branches are broken. I'm wondering if I should keep it?
That would have to be a choice thing. If it was down several times, I can't help but wonder if it would be better to remove it. There are many tough and attractive ornamental trees that seem to take a snow load better. You might get some advice by contacting the master gardener office at email@example.com or 397-6060, ext. 5711
Are sunflower seed shells poison? Will it be a danger to my kitten under the bird feeder where the birds flip them out? Sometimes I've eaten a few when I was breaking open seeds.
While not poison to humans or animals, they are not a great thing to eat as the shells are of a fiber (woody) content that mammals cannot digest efficiently.

LOPSIDED growth of the Earth's core could explain why its magnetic field reverses direction every few thousand years. If it happened now, we would be exposed to solar winds capable of knocking out global communications and power grids.
One side of Earth's solid inner core grows slightly while the other half melts. Peter Olson and Renaud Deguen of Johns Hopkins University used numerical modelling to establish that the axis of Earth's magnetic field lies in the growing hemisphere - a finding that suggests shifts in the field are connected to growth of the inner core (Nature Geoscience, DOI: 10.1038/ngeo1506).
There are signs that the next switch may be under way: rapid movements of the field's axis to the east in the last few hundred years may be a precursor to the north and south poles trading places, the researchers speculate.

UMAPINE - From just yards away the earth looks empty, baking under a punishing sun and landscaped only by tire tracks.
With a gurgle of a nearby irrigation ditch, an ocean metaphor comes unbidden. Shorn hay fields the color of sand dunes roll gently as a sea of green onions laps at its base ... and the now-flattened ground standing in for a mud flat.
Eventually the tableau gains a third dimension. In a wave of dust, people young and old approach the field as one, hoisting buckets and carrying all manner of sacking. Squinting into the searing sky, the Walla Walla Gleaners resemble nothing so much as group of extras from "The Grapes of Wrath."
Far from the despair of the 1940 movie, however, hope is grown as these volunteers gather agricultural leftovers from a valley brimming with food.
Ancient tradition roots here again
The practice of gleaning dates back to Biblical times, as evidenced in the Old Testament. Leviticus 19, 9-10 - "Now when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest. Nor shall you glean your vineyard, nor shall you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the needy and for the stranger ..."
Gleaners wait patiently for a grower's surplus - produce that's insect-damaged, irregularly shaped, spotted or striped by a procedure or harmless blight. In other words, not profitable for farmers to collect from ground, bush or tree.
Turning that into a local blessing for area food pantries began with a casual conversation among friends in 2009. It was an "abundant" growing year, noted Walla Walla Gleaners President Pat Camp. Why not, then, reclaim some of what is left in fields and on trees for those most in need?
And why shouldn't it be their little group to make that happen?
That informal first summer yielded about 10,000 pounds of produce gathered by a few workers from farms, orchards and back-yard gardens.
"Last year a family had six pear trees in their yard and they said we could have one tree," recalled founding member Liz Hair. "We got hundreds of pounds of pears. They went straight to the food banks."
With hundreds of gleaning groups cropping up around the nation, Walla Walla reflects the trend, Camp believes. This year the ranks of local harvesters swelled to 60 or so. Most have joined simply to contribute the community, while others are determined to pay it forward from their own times of hunger.
Members of Walla Walla Gleaners do have the option of taking some produce as payment for their labor - a tiny fraction of total poundage - while many give all they glean to the greater cause, Camp added.
Gleaners are trained in safety and crop-specific harvest techniques. They sign liability waivers and follow rules emphasizing respect for the food and the people who grew it, she explained. The organization supplies equipment, from ladders to scales.
Relationships with area farmers are building. Gleaning, as old as time, is recently re-rooted here. It will take time to gain understanding of the practice, Camp said. "It's really interesting to 'sell' the program. Some farmers aren't interested if it is not going to all go strictly to charity. We are happy to offer every pound we pick will go to a food bank."
Farmers have legitimate anxieties, she said. "They need to know you are not reselling it, that you are not undermining their customer base. You do have to work on that and build trust."
In the meantime, numbers suggest local hunger is growing. In 2009, Blue Mountain Action Council Food Bank handed out food to nearly 10,000 families and Christian Aid Center provided 34,200 hot meals.
Winning over growers is not insurmountable. Organic farmers Lori and Gary Middleton founded Fields of Grace in Tri-Cities a few years ago. In that short time, thousands have been educated in the art of gleaning, numerous churches have become involved and farmers have come to welcome them, Lori Middleton said.
Fields of Grace is enjoying a trickle-down effect from local acceptance, she added. "We have farmers who grow additional food and set aside some crops just for us. It's a big blessing."
Those gleanings go to a Tri-Cities food bank, but the benefit does not end there. "People bring their children, and you've got the grandparents out there. It's really an event, it's really wonderful," Middleton said. "And then to take thousands of pounds of fruit and take it to Second Harvest, that's just gratifying."
Gathering bounty
This summer evening begins with gathering basics. "There will be smashed onions," farm manager Dan McClure cautions the group of two dozen people. "We drive over them when we drop the bins."
The intact produce remaining after picking by machine and man will have imperfections, but those onions are perfectly good, he explains.
With that, the gleaners are off, quickly saturating the cleared acre with intent to harvest whatever possible.
Walking a row with eyes down, Sheril Fetter explains she is here with her 12-year-old son. "I hate to see things go to waste. I like the idea of putting in some labor and getting some produce and helping the food bank," she said. "It's a win-win."
The family parcels out a share of the glean with the neighborhood, Fetter noted. "Quite a few are elderly and there are some widows. They give to us and we give them."
Gail Bobbitt has been gleaning her whole life. "My family always did this. We'd see an apricot tree with the fruit on the ground and we's stop and ask if we could pick them. And if they wanted a little something for it, why, we were happy to pay it," she recalled.
Camp is scooping up the smallest orbs for a nonprofit preschool. If her quest for 70 or so is successful, every child will have a small onion to take home as a show-and-tell about how food grows, she said. "This is Easter-egg hunting in the dirt."
The scale, set up in the skimpy shade of a pickup truck, is quickly in use. Two women run the operation, helping pickers unload their haul into net bags. When the gleaners have finished, McClure will be given a total poundage (which turned out to be 1,480 pounds). It will include how much goes to charity and how much is kept by gleaners.
Simple solutions, greater goals
Walla Walla Gleaners may be practicing patience while waiting for crops and a labor-intensive gathering process. But the organization is just as eager to jump ahead, Camp said. "We'd like to see this program grow in numbers and expand to service groups. And we eventually won't be able to get to everything."
McClure is happy that the group got to his onion field, he said a few days later. The gleaners, true to their mission, did a "very good job. They followed directions and got most everything, which is what I wanted."
He understands some farmers worry that gleaning can hurt business, he said. "But I don't think (gleaners) are. I think they are taking it to places we don't go to. I think it's great."
With awareness of gleaning, the community can learn about food waste and what individuals can do, Camp said. By inviting gleaners in when zucchini plants are in overdrive or "you are buried in tomatoes," those contributions can start decreasing the community's dependence on food ba nks, she pointed out.
The group's motto states it in more simple terms: "Abundance - gathered and shared."

Cue day one of no sleep, then. I am jealous of every single person with video cameras for mares because it is chilly and buggy out! She finally cocked a hip and seemed more relaxed so inside I go.
