Goose Run Farms
Homer, Ohio
Family Farm
Located northeast of Columbus in Licking County, Ohio, near Homer, we offer grass-fed lamb and free-range brown eggs from our 78-acre hobby-farm. Named after a stream on the property, the farm consists of pastures, century-old buildings, and numerous types of wildlife habitat including woods, grasses, meadows, and ponds. Our USDA-inspected lamb, from our naturally-raised,pastured flocks of sheep, is available for purchase frozen at the nearby Homer Village Market, which we own, or "on-the-hoof" by appointment at our farm. Sometimes we offer private farm tours, picnics, and wildlife hikes at the farm. No fishing or hunting permits are available at this time but possibly in the future as we recently acquired an adjoining 20-acre parcel of land with a lodge and barn.
Our laying hens and livestock enjoy lush pastures supplemented by commercial feed produced at our local feed store. Their feed contains no hormones, medications or animal by-products. We provide our animals and pets loving care, fresh water and pasture, roomy shelter, and veterinary care as rarely needed. The lambs are processed at a local, USDA-inspected facility where the meat is cut to order, vaccuum packed, labeled and frozen. Our fresh eggs and many cuts of (frozen) lamb are conveniently available at the nearby Homer Village Market. If you want a whole lamb either live or cut to order at a USDA processing facility, we can usually supply these from mid-summer to late fall upon request. Produce and firewood are available seasonally.
Our chickens are heavy breeds of brown-egg layers including Australorps, Orpingtons, and many others. Our sheep breeds include Suffolk/Jacob cross, Katahdin/Dorper, Katahdin, Polypay, and Cheviot. We are moving toward the Katahdin breed (hair sheep) due to its quality of meat, resistance to parasites, and no-shearing or tail docking needed.
Goose Run Farms offers grass-fed lamb and free-range, brown eggs for sale at the nearby Homer Village Market, which we own. Sometimes we offer seasonal, private farm tours, picnics, and wildlife hikes on the farm. Special orders of farm products are available at the farm by appointment. Homer Village Market also offers specialty foods (including maple syrup, cheese, pasta, jams, sauces, and pickles), craft beers, and wines from local producers in Ohio and surrounding regions.

intersection of SR 661 and CR 19 (Homer Road)
Homer, OH 43027
Tuesday thru Saturday 10 a.m. - 7 pm
Sundays Noon until 5 p.m. Closed Mondays
You can place orders with us for whole lambs cut to order at a local USDA-inspected facility. You can also purchase livestock by appointment at our farm including weaned lambs, ewes, rams, and poultry subject to availability.

Love to laugh and try to make others laugh. Life can be complicated trust me I know but it can also be fun. I'm on a journey...LOL
This is a bit difficult for me as I have never done this before. So here is a little bit something about myself. I tend to work hard at everything that I do. I am very handy with my hands as there is nothing that I can't do (plumbing, flooring, carpentry, mechanic, etc.). I love helping out family and friends with any trouble that they might run into. My pay for the work might end up with a Corona in my hand. I figure that since I'm blessed with what I have learned that I help out where I can. I truly would like to meet someone that is into family and friends. I love to BBQ on weekends as my kids and family love my food. Oh and I can also cook :) I can be and do like to be romantic. For example : If you wanna call me, then call me. You don't have to worry about it baby. You can wake me up in the dead of night. Wreck my plans baby that's alright. It's a drop everything kind of thing as you can wreck my party any time. I would like to share my life with someone that I can maybe grow old with. My kids are a very important part of my life and do want them to continue being my partners in my life. They are pretty much grown up, my son is 21yrs and my gorgeous daughter is 19yrs. Did I say I can be a goofball every now and then? Life is too short and just want to make best out of it and not take life too seriously at all times. I work too hard and do try to enjoy my "me" time. I like to be spontaneous every now and then (I like Vegas). I like making new friends too so don't be shy. I believe in treating women with respect as that's what my mama taught me lol. Well if I can think of anything else I might just updated it at a later time. Oh and I am a cool guy to be around and not to say good looking too ;) at least that's what my mom tells me hahaaa. Well hope I get to meet my best friend.

Some of my favorite places are Maui, Hi. Been there twice and love it. I've also been to Miami and San Francisco. Lovely places to visit but gotta love SoCal. Oh and Vegas is still a place I like to escape too.
One of my favorite things to do is to be able to spend quality time with my family. I have a fun family (1 Brother & 2 Sisters). I enjoy a nice cold beer and love to eat. Have tried many types of food and Mexican food is still the best.
I like going to the movies and enjoy nice walks at the park or beach. I enjoy having my kids around as they are the joy of my life. Having a drink is fun too LOL :)
Have not done much reading but the last book that I read was "Heaven Does Exist". Do tend to pick up my Bible from time to time.

Buried at the bottom of today's CityPaper article about the Black Guerrilla Family gang is an eye-opening interview with an anonymous member, spelling out the gang's goal of infiltrating city government by masquerading as an anti-drug, black empowerment movement.
For anyone following the case, the statements aren't surprising - federal agents had said as much in the original court papers, and The Sun in 2009 obtained a copy of the gang's "Black Book", which was endorsed by a former FBI agent and a two-time mayoral candidate and city schools administrator, among others, and was nudged under the nose of then-Mayor Sheila Dixon's education liaison.
But Van Smith's interview with "Sam" lays bare the gang's intentions, in to-the-point terms:
- Federal appeals judge issues scathing opinion in stash house case
- The New Yorker examines BGF scandal at the Baltimore jail
- Baltimore jail security chief steps down after brief tenure
- Zurawik on national coverage of the BGF story [Video]
- Indictments against alleged gang members, jail guards [Video]

A really lovely place idyllic surroundings and near many areas of interest
Fantastic stay in a beautiful location. Lots of details thought of in the facility, there was nothing we needed that wasn't available in the lodge! Will definitely return
We loved the lodge and the facilities; but as we have a 4 month baby and didn't realise that there was no bath, it made it impossible for us to bath our baby. (I'm sure this information was stated in your website, an overlook on our part).
Fantastic Lodges and wonderful surroundings. We had a great time and will come back again.
Great relaxing break. Lots of privacy and a wonderful hot tub! Would stay again.
If you are looking for a peaceful break then this is it. We had a great time (2adults, 2children)
Really nice lodge, well equipped and maintained, lovely quiet location. Did not get the time to use hot tub or sauna and, being March, too cold for us to even think about using the natural pool. Unique set of 3 lodges. You won't find anything like this elsewhere. Would visit again.
Loved pretty much everything about this break - location, lodge, owners and surroundings. The hot-tub was the icing on the cake!
Only slight gripe was that one of the twin beds had a mattress that had seen better days. We told the owner and she was pleased we had bought it to her attention.
Also worth mentioning are the local shop owners in Ledbury and Ross-on-Wye who were so welcoming and helpful. There are loads of places to visit and things to do just a short drive away.
We had a relaxing weekend in a beautiful lodge with everything you could need. Although we did not go in the natural pool our neighbours did which was very brave as it was not warm. We were a group of 4 middle aged ladies but this place is great for families, couples and groups.
Would like to return soon.
We had a lovely break away. First time without the kids so the peace and quiet was beautiful. Chilling in the hot tub at the back watching the moon rise was epic
An ideal break for Feb half- term. Peaceful surroundings for the parents, plenty of space for the kids, lovelely lodges in a beautiful surrounding.
Loved the place, couldn't have asked for better.
Hot tub too small. Accommodation is for 4 but the hot tub was only big enough for 2.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.. The location and surroundings were excellent. The whole family really enjoyed it..
Spent a nice relaxing family weekend at Oasis Lodge.
A nice setting with a lovely looking pool if you are brave enough to take a dip in November friendly introduction.
Good value for money. Everything was nice and tidy.
I would book again.
Great hostes, made very welcome,relaxing holiday gate to every where,natural swimming pool magicians in Nowadays warm and cosy.

In no particular order, here's what I've received so far:
"Krishna" from darwin. Pensive, with lovely sunlit tones. It's gloomy and rainy here, so a spot of sun is appreciated!
Locomotive, from Mark S. Solid, industrial Art Deco. Mmm -- my favorite art period!
"Pitcher Window" from TFZ1. Lovely light, a classical shape. Wheee!
"Evening at the Cardboard House" by Sly. Infra-red landscape that glows in the dark! Well, it seems like it should, anyway!
"Steibs Hof" from piu58. Enjoyed very much, thank you! How fast do you suppose one could drive a carriage through there?
"Being Followed" from Jim17x. Makes me feel like southern California for some reason. I have an Olympus Stylus I got for $3 from a charity store I use for the same sort of thing. Strangely, although very different, your photo reminds me strongly of Linda McCartney's photograph of Paul through the rear-view mirror I saw in her Roadworks show here in Elkhart back in 2000. Lots of fun!

Kelly Dunn, Senior Manager - Technical Support & Vendor Management - Eastlink Canada
"The openness of all presenters was refreshing, and it was a pure best practice event.

Martin Sizer, Support Centre Manager - Cummins South Pacific - Australia (17 years experience in the industry)

Xross Media Entertainment, in particular, has been filed under multiple spellings and abbreviations, including Xhross Media Entertainment, XME, XROME and XHROME. The name resembles the Xross Media Bar, the graphical interface used in the PSP and PSX.
GT-Magazine Mail sounds like a possible magazine service for the "Gran Turismo" driving simulation series, while the remaining three trademarks sound like possible game titles. (Kunoichi Densetsu translates to "The Legend of the Female Ninja.")

Nigeria makes N1.56tr from cocoa, other exports yearly
Nigeria generates $10 billion (N1.56 trillion) from the export of leather, cocoa and other commodities annually, Executive Director, Nigeria Export Promotion Council (NEPC), Mr David Adulugba has said.
He said the council will ensure the doubling of figure next year through unrelenting efforts aimed at diversifying the economy.
Speaking to reporters after opening the N11 million data centre, Adulugba said other exportable products contributing immensely to the export revenues included cashew nuts, sesame seeds and soya beans, among others.
According to him, the nation's finished leather is doing well in the international market, which explains why it makes significant contributions to the export income.
He said: "As I am speaking to you and according to the International Trade Development Centre (ITDC) in Geneva, Nigeria's exportation is generating $10 billion annually and this has positioned the country as one of the leading emerging economies in the world.
"At NEPC, we are doubling our efforts to ensure that we double that figure by the end of this year."
However, the NEPC boss regretted that export activities were plagued by challenges affecting the sector.
These, according to him, include failing infrastructure, paucity of funds to develop products, huge cost of production, multiple checkpoints and border harassments, and sea piracy, among others.
He reiterated that the NEPC was committed to ensuring that the economy was diversified.
"The oil economy is a mono-based economy. Nigeria can do well without oil.
The oil economy has not done well and except we make stringent efforts to diversify the economy by developing the non-oil sector, we may not compete well in the global economy," he said.
On the data centre, Adulugba explained that NEPC could not afford to be left behind in the digital revolution, adding that it was expedient for export processing to be digitalised.
He noted that data collection, collation, storage and retrieval as a system must be embedded in NEPC operations, saying, "Though, it is coming rather too late, but we must join the global train and ensure we are not left behind. Quality and accurate service delivery is very germane to our business; therefore, going digital is not just imperative, but highly critical to attaining our goals."

Experience Spain and Morocco
Just 8 miles apart, Spain and Morocco may be coastal neighbors, but they're worlds apart -- now's your chance to explore them both before entering for a chance to win The Trip: 2014.
Tarifa, Cádiz, Andalusia, SpainThe southernmost port in Spain (and Europe), Tarifa is a short boat ride across the Strait of Gibraltar to Morocco. For a particularly good view of the harbor and the coast of Morocco, climb the Castle of Guzman El Bueno's towers. 960 1280
Dalt Vila, Ibiza, SpainIbiza (officially Eivissa in the local Catalan) is divided into 2 main parts: the old town, called Dalt Vila, and the modern district, called the Eixample. The vacation mecca gets, on average, 300 days of sunshine a year -- although, the water is only warm enough for a swim from May through October. 960 1280
Marrakech, MoroccoSituated near the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, Marrakech is divided into 2 parts. The Medina is the historic part of the city, full of character and intricately connected alleyways stuffed with vendors and stalls. The newer European district known as Gueliz is home to modern restaurants, fast food chains and big box stores. 960 1280

Welcome to King's Landing!King's Landing, or as it's known in real life, Dubrovnik, a Croatian city nested on the shore of the Adriatic Sea. Durbovnik's stone walls, dramatic cliffs and amazing views make it the perfect seat for the king(s) of Westeros. 960 1280
Dubrovnik, CroatiaDuncan Muggoch, line producer for scenes shot in Spain and Croatia, says it is sometimes hard to film around tourists in Dubrovnik. Sherpas were used to help the production crew haul equipment through the narrow and often steep streets to specific locations throughout the city. Fans will see Croatia in the first few episodes of the fifth season. A soup kitchen scene with Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) visiting High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce) was filmed in Dubrovnik. 960 1280
The Alcazar, Seville, SpainIn Seville, the upper levels of the Alcazar are home to the royal family, but the palatial estate's lush gardens are transformed into the Water Gardens of Dorne in the Game of Thrones' fourth and fifth seasons. The Alcazar's staircases are so narrow that the production crew had to use cranes to transport equipment up to a few of the palace's balconies. More than 8,000 visitors converge on the Alcazar each day, making it one of the most-visited attractions in Seville. 960 1280
Plaza de Toros, Osuna, SpainLocated in southern Spain, the Plaza de Toros is an old bullring and national monument that was transformed into a gladiator arena for a scene in the fifth season of Game of Thrones. Producers picked the popular attraction because the arena's stone structure is similar to those found in Croatia, another place where scenes were filmed for the medieval-era drama. 960 1280
Magheramorne Quarry, County Antrim, Northern IrelandWhile 1 crew was shooting scenes in Spain and Croatia, a second production crew filmed scenes at the quarry in Magheramorne, which is located on the shores of Loch Larne. This small town of 75 residents was transformed into a fishing village called Hardhome. In previous Game of Thrones episodes, the location was also used to film scenes of Castle Black (first season) and the Battle of Blackwater (second season). 960 1280
Mourne Mountains, Northern IrelandNorthern Ireland's Mourne Mountains provided the scenery for Dany's entrance into the Dothraki holy land. Of course, the Dothraki fighting horse statues are missing, so you'll just have to imagine the iconic gate when you visit these breathtaking mountains. 960 1280
Doune Castle, ScotlandThe Lord's Tower and East Wall of Doune Castle in Scotland should look familiar to Game of Thrones fans. Poor little Bran fell (was pushed) out one of its windows in the first season, when he saw something he shouldn't have. Originally built in the 13th century, Doune Castle features a nature walk through the grounds for visitors. 960 1280
The Dark Hedges, Northern IrelandThe Dark Hedges in Northern Ireland have played a major role in the Game of Thrones story, serving as the setting for the Kingsroad. But the area that surrounds the Dark Hedges should be a must-see for any fan, since it has been used to film Winterfell, Castle Black and the Stark family war encampment. 960 1280
Downhill Beach and Mussenden Temple, Northern IrelandIf you happen to be rooting for Stannis Baratheon, Downhill Beach and Mussenden Temple in Northern Ireland are your spots. Serving as the backdrop for Dragonstone Castle and Blackwater Bay, Downhill Beach was where Melisandre burned the old gods, issuing a new religion for Stannis' followers. 960 1280
Essaouira, MoroccoThis historic bastion in Essaouira, Morocco, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It also happens to have played the part of Astapor, the slave-trading city where Daenerys freed the Unsullied, including everyone's favorite: Grey Worm. 960 1280
Ouarzazate, MoroccoOuarzazate, a town in Morocco, is famous for the Atlas Film Corporation Studios, open to tourists for tours of the many sets left from movies like Babel and Kingdom of Heaven. Sets at this Morrocco studio stood in for the Free City of Pentos, and also served as the venue for Dany and Khal Drogo's memorable wedding. 960 1280
Jokulsarlon Glacial Lagoon, IcelandAt the Jokulsarlon Glacial Lagoon in Iceland, the Vatnajokull Ice Cap -- Europe's largest ice cap -- serves as the ideal setting for the Land Beyond the Wall. Just look out for White Walkers! 960 1280
Skaftafell National Park, IcelandSkaftafell National Park in Iceland was the setting of Jon Snow and Ygritte's love story, from Jon Snow and Qhorin Halfhand's sneak attack on the Wildlings to the near beheading of our favorite red-head. The park is open year round for GoT devotees or visitors just looking for a glacier hike. 960 1280
Capuchin CatacombsDown in the cold, dry basement of the Capuchin Monastery, on the outskirts of Palermo, Italy, are the remains of 8,000 people. When the monastery outgrew its original cemetery in 1599, catacombs were excavated beneath the building. In addition to friars interred here, well-known locals chose the crypts as their final resting place. The catacombs are open to the public; iron grills prevent visitors from touching or posing with those laid to rest here. 960 1280
Catacombs of ParisA series of manholes and ladders lead visitors to the creepy catacombs of Paris. In 1786, the cemeteries of Paris churches were filled to overflowing. The government saw a solution in long-abandoned stone quarries in and around the capital. The resulting catacombs eventually became the final resting place of some 6 million people. Following a vandalism incident, the catacombs were closed to the public in September 2009, but reopened a few months later. 960 1280
Brno OssuaryThe Brno Ossuary in the Czech Republic is estimated to hold the remains of more than 50,000 people, making it the second-largest site of its kind in Europe (behind the Paris Catacombs). The ossuary was established in the 17th century, partially under the Church of St. James. The ossuary was later forgotten, until its rediscovery in 2001. It has been open to public tours since June 2012. 960 1280
Monastery of San FranciscoBelow the monastery of San Francisco, in the historic center of Lima, Peru, creepy catacombs are filled with skulls and bones. The catacombs were established following the monastery's construction (in 1774), and remained in use until 1808, when a city cemetery was founded outside of Lima. The catacombs were soon forgotten, until their discovery in 1943. An estimated 70,000 individuals' remains fill the catacombs' narrow hallways and deep holes. 960 1280
St. Stephen's CathedralLight peeks through the darkness at St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. Following its consecration in 1147 A.D., the cathedral's grounds gave way to cemeteries – a result of the high honor that believers placed on being buried near a church. Interments began in 1735 and continued until 1783, when a new law forbade most burials within the city. Today, the cathedral's catacombs house the remains of more than 11,000 persons. 960 1280
St. Paul's CatacombsSt. Paul's Catacombs, outside of Mdina, Malta, are a series of underground galleries and tombs that date from the fourth to the ninth centuries A.D. Intriguingly, the 24 catacombs, which cradle the tombs of more than 1,000 dead, show evidence of pagan, Jewish and Christian burials side-by-side, with no clear divisions. The excavation of the catacombs began in the late 1800s, under the guidance of a Maltese archaeologist and author. The site is now managed by a national agency, with 2 catacombs open to the public. 960 1280
Catacombs of Kom el ShoqafaThe Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa ("Mound of Shards") are a series of tombs in Alexandria, Egypt, that reach a depth of 100 feet. In the 2nd century A.D., they were built for a wealthy family … then forgotten until 1900, when a donkey fell into the access shaft. Human and animal remains have since been found, along with 3 sarcophagi. The catacombs' name derives from visitors who used to visit the tombs and bring food in terra cotta jars to eat while there. They didn't wish to bring the containers back home from this place of death, so they would break them … leaving shards behind. 960 1280
Sedlec OssuaryThe Sedlec Ossuary is a small chapel in the Czech Republic that happens to have a whole lot of skeletons -- between 40,000 and 70,000, in fact. Some bones are arranged to form decorations in the chapel, including this chandelier of bones. The ghoulish designs are the handiwork of a 19th-century woodcarver who had been hired by an aristocratic family to arrange the bones, which had been interred in the ossuary since 1511. 960 1280
Hallstatt Bone HouseSome visitors find the Bone House in Hallstatt, Austria, unexpectedly beautiful. We just find it creepy. The small chapel is home to a ghoulish display of 1,200 skulls. It came about in the 12th century, when the neighboring cemetery became filled to capacity. Cremation was forbidden, so bodies would be buried for about 15 years, then exhumed and placed in the chapel. Here, skulls are painted with a floral crown – a practice that began around 1720, in a gesture akin to placing flowers on a grave. 960 1280
Skull ChapelThe Skull Chapel in Czerma, Poland, was built in 1776 by a local priest. The chapel serves as the mass grave for nearly 25,000 people who died during the Thirty Years War, 3 Silesian Wars (between Prussia and Austria), as well as from cholera outbreaks and hunger. The priest led the effort to collect the remains and put them in the chapel. The walls and basement are filled with skulls and bones; the remains of those who built the chapel are placed in the center of the church and on the altar. 960 1280
Capela dos OssosThe Capela dos Ossos, or Chapel of Bones, in Évora, Portugal, gets its name from the human skulls and bones that cover its interior walls. The chapel was built in the 1500s by a Franciscan monk, who wanted his fellow monks to meditate hard on life's transient nature. That message is driven home by some 5,000 skeletons, collected from nearby churches, as well as the words by the chapel's entrance: "We, the bones that are here, await yours." 960 1280
Skull TowerIn the early 1800s, Serbian rebels stood up to the Ottoman Empire. The Skull Tower was later built using the skulls of Serbs killed during a battle in 1809. In all, 952 skulls were collected and mounted on a tower as a warning to whoever opposed the empire. The tower stood in the open air until liberation of the area in southern Serbia in 1878. By then, much of the tower had eroded. In 1892, donations from all over Serbia led to the construction of a chapel, built around 58 skulls that still remained. 960 1280
Creepy Crypts and Catacombs Worldwide 12 Photos
Hampstead Garden SuburbElizabeth Rosemond Taylor was born to American parents in this northwest London suburb in February 1932. The youngest of 2 children, Taylor's beauty was apparent early on. A mutation gave Taylor double eyelashes, and people would stop to behold her deep blue eyes, which appeared violet. 960 1280
Los AngelesShortly before the start of World War II, Taylor's parents returned to the US to avoid hostilities. Settling in Los Angeles, Taylor's father established an art gallery, which soon attracted numerous Hollywood celebrities. This A-list crowd couldn't help but notice the young Taylor's beauty, and a star would soon be born. 960 1280
Pebble Beach, CaliforniaA year later, Taylor became a full-fledged star with the release of National Velvet. Much of the film was shot in this small coastal resort destination in California, which owes much of its picture-perfect scenery to granite rock outcroppings visible along the coast. 960 1280
All Saints Episcopal ChurchAt 18, Taylor snagged her first adult role, in Father of the Bride. In the 1950 film, Taylor (as Kay Banks) walks down the aisle of this church at 504 North Camden Drive in Beverly Hills. In real life, Taylor married hotel heir Conrad Hilton the same year -- in what would be the first of her 8 marriages. 960 1280
Trafalgar SquareA dual citizen of the UK and US (the latter from 1977 on), Taylor visited London many times. She even appeared in a CBS TV special Elizabeth Taylor in London in 1963, taking viewers on a tour of various sites, including Westminster Bridge, Battersea Park and the House of Parliament. Here's Taylor more than a decade earlier, at the age of 16, with a friend in Trafalgar Square. 960 1280
Cascade Lake, CaliforniaThis 170-foot-deep glacial lake was the backdrop for 1951's A Place in the Sun. With luminous closeups of her perfectly symmetrical face, Taylor played American socialite Angela Vickers, the unattainable dream girl to the poor nephew of a rich industrialist. 960 1280
Marfa, TexasThis dusty town in West Texas was the site of 2 months of filming for the 1956 movie Giant, in which Taylor played socialite Leslie Lynnton. The town is also famous for the Marfa lights, visible on clear nights between Marfa and the Paisano Pass when facing southwest. 960 1280
Oyster Bay, Long IslandTwo years later, Taylor had another hit with Cat on a Hat Tin Roof, the film adaptation of Tennessee Williams' play. The film was shot in the town of Oyster Bay on Long Island. During filming, the 26-year-old Taylor suffered the loss of her third husband Mike Todd, who was killed in a plane crash. 960 1280
S'Agaro, SpainTaylor signed on for another film adaption of a Tennessee Williams play. In Suddenly, Last Summer, Taylor played a young woman institutionalized for severe emotional disturbance. The film's "Cabeza de Lobo" sequence was partly shot in this resort area (pictured), located in the coastal region of northeastern Spain. 960 1280
Fifth Avenue, NYCTaylor won her first Academy Award for her portrayal of part-model, part-call girl Gloria Wondrous in 1960's Butterfield 8. Much of the film's action occurred on Manhattan's Upper East Side, including Fifth Avenue. By now, Taylor had married her fourth husband, Eddie Fisher, and proclaimed: "We're house-hunting New Yorkers. Our home is here now, not in Hollywood." 960 1280
RomeLiz and Dick -- the world's most famous couple of the day met on the set of 1963's Cleopatra. Playing the most beautiful woman of ancient times, Taylor was not to be outdone in real life: During filming in Rome, Taylor and the married actor began a very public affair. Four years later, the headline-grabbing couple returned to Italy to film The Taming of the Shrew. 960 1280
Ritz Carlton, MontrealAfter quickie divorces in Mexico from their spouses, Liz and Dick tied the knot in Montreal in 1964. The civil ceremony took place at the Ritz-Carlton hotel on 1228 Sherbrooke Street West, in the city's luxurious Golden Square Mile area. It was Taylor's fifth marriage, and Burton's second. 960 1280
Liz and Dick's Wedding"I'm so happy you can't believe it," beamed the newly married Taylor. "This marriage will last forever." Maybe not exactly, but it did prove to be Taylor's greatest love affair. Liz and Dick's marriage lasted 10 years; 16 months after their divorce, they married again, before finally divorcing a short time later, this time for good. 960 1280
Washington, DCIn 1985, Taylor lost her longtime friend (and Giant costar) Rock Hudson to AIDS. That same year, Taylor cofounded the American Foundation for AIDS Research, and in 1986 went to Capitol Hill to testify before the Senate about the need for greater funding and public awareness of the disease. 960 1280
The Western WallTaylor converted to Judaism at the age of 27, taking the name "Elisheba Rachel." She went on to become a lifelong supporter of Israel, and visited the Western Wall in August 1975 with Richard Burton. Taylor returned to the country in 1982, meeting with Israeli leader Menachem Begin. 960 1280
Hawaii Shark DiveAt 74, Taylor proved she hadn't lost her passion for life. Having survived a brain tumor nearly a decade earlier, Taylor enjoyed a shark-diving trip in Hawaii. "There were 12 sharks cruising the cage!" Taylor later told People. "The water was very warm. It was beautiful. I had a T-shirt on that said 'Shark Bait.'" 960 1280
The Abbey, Los AngelesIn her final years, Taylor was a once-a-week regular at The Abbey, a gay bar in West Hollywood, CA. She'd enjoy tequila shots, watermelon and apple martinis, and wave to fans from her wheelchair. After her death, the bar staff left a remembrance to Taylor on an empty table: a Blue Velvet martini, made with vodka and blueberry schnapps, in a nod to Taylor's 1944 film National Velvet. 960 1280

VIDEO: Sneak Peek - Showtime's SPARK: THE BURNING MAN STORY Premieres Tonight
In SPARK: A BURNING MAN STORY premiering tonight, August 21st at 8 p.m. on SHOWTIME, filmmakers Steve Brown and Jessie Deeter offer a compelling behind-the-scenes look into Burning Man's history and its ongoing evolution today.
Check out the trailer below!
Through the use of captivating archival footage and in-depth interviews with the event's co-founders, this 90-minute documentary explores the passion and artistry that goes into creating this iconic festival.
Each year, a week before Labor Day, Burning Man's "Black Rock City" rises from the dust of an ancient lakebed (fondly referred to by the participants as "the Playa") to become Nevada's third-largest population center, an ephemeral metropolis with few regulations and no commerce. It's a "pop-up" city of tens of thousands of strangers who unite around 10 Core Principles - commandments, if you will, key amongst them are "Decommodification," "Participation" and "Radical Inclusion."
Along with the Playa's harsh desert, its citizens, formidable infrastructure, ritual, art, music and technology combine to give Burning Man a community and culture like none other on earth.

Kansas City's Will Smith fired seven shutout innings to lead the Royals to a 9-1 rout of the Twins in the opener of a three-game series at Target Field. Smith struck out seven and walked three while scattering seven hits as he upped his mark to 9-and-7. Lorenzo Cain's flyball was lost in the twilight by Twins outfielder Josh Willingham and turned into a two-run triple in the second inning. Cain finished a homer short of the cycle and drove in two runs. Ryan Doumit [[ DOE-mitt ]] knocked in the lone run for the Twins, who had won their previous three. Scott Diamond was tagged for four runs and 10 hits in six frames as he fell to 11-and-7. The same two teams play tonight in Minneapolis. Coverage begins at 6:40pm on 860 AM KNUJ and SAM 107.3.

A committee of Stamford, Connecticut's Board of Representatives is currently considering changes to Chapter 111 of the City's Code of Ordinances, which currently deals with "Dogs and Other Animals". The changes include use of the term "guardian" to describe the relationship between dogs and their owners and requires breeders to acquire breeder permits. The American Kennel Club opposes portions of the ordinance as currently written, and encourages all dog owners in Stamford to contact the members of the Legislative and Rules Committee to express their concerns with the proposal.
The New York Legislature has adjourned and will likely not reconvene until 2016. Prior to adjournment, three bills were passed that would directly impact dog owners. The bills must still be sent to the governor for his approval or veto.
The North Carolina General Assembly is currently developing a state budget for the coming fiscal year. A provision in the Senate version passed on June 18 would require that the general sales tax rate (currently 4.75%) be applied to gross receipts for a variety of services including grooming, boarding, training, veterinary services, or "providing other care for an animal."
AKC has learned that these ordinances have been pulled from the June 23rd agenda.
The Pennsylvania Senate Game and Fisheries Committee has approved Senate Bill 77, which would make several changes regarding dog training areas, including providing protections for dogs actively training or participating in field trials. The bill is now under consideration by the full Senate.
On June 23rd the Washoe County Board of Commissioners will be considering changes to their animal control ordinance that will define commercial animal establishments and commercial breeders. Two separate ordinances are proposed.
The Oregon State Senate is scheduled to vote on House Bill 3494 on Monday, June 15th and your opposition is needed! The measure will ban the practice of debarking unless it is medically necessary to treat an injury, illness, or congenital defect. This legislation restricts the rights of responsible dog owners to make viable, safe decisions on behalf of their pets in conjunction with their veterinarians.
The Pennsylvania Senate Game and Fisheries Committee is scheduled to consider a bill on Tuesday, June 16, that would make several changes regarding dog training areas, including providing protections for dogs actively training or participating in field trials.

Sinusitis is an infection that causes the sinuses (moist air spaces within the bones of the face around the nose) to swell or become irritated.
The sinuses are four sets of hollow spaces located in the cheekbones (maxillary sinus), the forehead (frontal sinus), behind the nasal passages (ethmoid sinus), and deep in the brain behind the nasal passages (sphenoid sinus). Sinuses are lined with the same mucous membranes that line the nose and mouth.
When someone has a cold or allergies and the nasal passages become swollen and make more mucus, so do the sinus tissues. The drainage system for the sinuses can get blocked, and mucus can become trapped in the sinuses. Bacteria, viruses, and fungi can grow there and lead to sinusitis.
Sinusitis is common and easily treated. Your doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics to treat cases of sinusitis that are believed to be caused by bacteria. Some doctors may recommend decongestants and antihistamines to help reduce the symptoms.
Cases of sinusitis caused by viruses usually go away on their own without medical treatment. Acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and/or warm compresses can help reduce any pain. But over-the-counter cold preparations have not been found to be effective in reducing symptoms in kids and may cause unwanted side effects.

Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 1/20/13
8 a.m. ET: Two straight losses have given the Celtics reason to worry, so it may help to get away for a while. A two-game road trip against teams mired near the bottom of the standings therefore could be the perfect antidote. Of course, an opponent that was overmatched on paper managed to halt the Celtics' six-game winning streak, so the Pistons (14-25) should not be taken lightly. The Celtics (20-19) have the misfortune of facing a Detroit squad that discovered how to win in the last few weeks. The Pistons had won seven of nine before dropping their last two games, including Thursday's defeat in London at the hands of the Knicks. After holding their own against a tough Chicago front line on Friday, the Celtics will be challenged again up front by Greg Monroe, Jason Maxiell and Andre Drummond. All three of those big men are capable of putting together a double-double if Boston is not careful. The Celtics received some good news when X-rays on Avery Bradley's ribs came back negative. He will travel with the Celtics to Detroit before the team heads to Cleveland, but there is no assurance he will play in either game. Join us for updates and analysis during the game, which tips off at 7:30 p.m. ET.
