'Subway guy' promotes health, nutrition at Netzaberg schools
December 7, 2010
By Molly Hayden, USAG Grafenwoehr
Story Highlights
- "Subway Guy" gives kids a glimpse of how he got to be obese and how they can prevent it from happening to them.
GRAFENWOEHR, Germany Aca,!aEURc Few know his full name, but almost everyone knows who he is, including Netzaberg Middle School students.
"I saw him on a sign holding up a big pair of pants," said eighth-grader NievJohn Ignaco.
"He lost a lot of weight just eating Subway sandwiches," said Michael Wright, grade 7. "I didn't know you could do that."
Jared Fogle, known to most as "Jared the Subway Guy," made his claim to fame losing 225 pounds in one year by eating Subway sandwiches every day. Since that time, he has starred in hundreds of television commercials and appeared at various public performances promoting the Subway Corporation. Additionally, he was featured in Men's Health magazine and is the topic of numerous newspaper articles, (including this one).
His story is an extraordinary one - and one that he continues to talk about 12 years later.
Currently touring military bases in Europe, Fogle stopped by Netzaberg Middle School to share his story with more than 400 students recently.
"It started when I was around your age," Fogle said to the students, following up with a series of questions.
"How many of you like to play video games'"
Hands shot up in the air.
"How many of you like to eat sweets'"
More hands filled the air.
"Well, I like them a little too much," said Fogle, adding that hours in front of the television playing Nintendo replaced physical activity. As his weight steadily increased, his self-esteem steadily decreased.
In March of 1998, as a freshman at Indiana University, Fogle's weight peaked at 425 pounds. It became increasingly hard to function as a member of society. He could no longer see a movie, ride a bus, or fly in an airplane because he couldn't fit in the seats. Even walking across his university campus was draining.
"I needed to make a change," said Fogle, holding up an old pair of jeans, with a waist measuring 60 inches, an act which garnered gasps from the students.
So begins the story of the Subway guy. Every day, Fogle would eat a healthy six-inch sub, sans mayo, oil and cheese, and an additional one for dinner.
Fogle was motivated in this endeavor and the weight began to drop off. He soon began incorporating exercise into his routine and both his health and self esteem improved.
A year later, Fogle's image was plastered on billboards across the world, and Subway's sales sky-rocketed.
"I share my story in hopes of inspiring others to make better choices than I did regarding health and nutrition," said Fogle. "And for them to know it's never too late."
While Fogle is not your typical celebrity spokesman, the allure lies in his validity. He is real and his story is tried and true.
"His story was motivating," said eighth-grader Sammi Bidinger.
"And it's a good lesson," said Trebarious Wynn, grade 7. "Never give up and you can achieve your goals."

Corvallis 104.3 FM • Hood River 91.9 FM • Portland 90.7 FM
Jan and and Nancy Hollander talk about the psychodynamics of the recent elections, the fear and anger so strongly mobilized around them, and the possibility of turning fear into constructive action.
Nancy Hollander is a psychoanalyst, professor emeritus at California State University and author of "Uprooted Minds."
Well Read Red Frann Michel reflects on the recent elections, voters' motivations, and surveys the broad response by progressives and leftists in the media. Read her essay HERE, which is chock-full of links.
Today's Old Mole, hosted by Bill Resnick, is almost all about the elections. It features interviews about election psychology, organizing for a free society, and how competition ties the hands of progressive city politics. We also hear two commentaries about the elections.
Throughout November, Ani and Lyn will celebrate resistance to our current culture of corporate rule and dominator mentality.
Hosted by Abe Proctor and Joe Uris
The story of the 2010 midterms -- depending on your perspective -- is one of opportunity lost. President Obama and the Democrats were swept into office in 2008 on a wave of populist optimism, with all their stars aligned. The country seemed poised for a neo-Rooseveltian turnover, a new New Deal.

Reality, of course, turned out to be different. Two years later, the GOP has taken control of the House. Abe and Joe look over the wreckage of Election Day, both local and national, and try to plot a path forward for progressives.
What were voters thinking? Jo Ann and Dave sort through the midterm election rubble to find out!

(John Prine reference)
When I was a child I would infrequently find myself alone with mom on a weekday. I don't know why. As the oldest of six, I presume I was sick while all of them were off to school (she was never acquitted or even accused of burying her young and as far as I know they are all alive and kicking, some of us more alive and kicking than others, but none of us dirt inspectors while she has, regrettably, become a member of that dreadful occupation).
I bring this up because it is currently raging rain and thunder and lightening and I like it. There are weather scripts floating across the bottom of the television, telling us that this is serious even if they screwed up so that their annoying beepers don't work at the moment, Still, they say, there may be tornadoes anywhere from here to, oh, I don't know...THERE. They wonder why we die, why we don't take them seriously, when this is the best they can do.
When I was home for whatever reason, I remember my mom ironing clothes on a real ironing board with real starch and a sprayer of water. She would sing. Doris Day, Ricky Nelson, Elvis, people I have no recollection of. And I would stare through the front window, spattered with raindrops, and watch the little kids outside splashing in the puddles in the street, and would have just this wonderful epiphany of sensation, the sight, the sound, the smell, the touch.
Smelling my mom's work, the starch and steam, and probably a pot of chicken noodle soup on the stove, maybe a grilled cheese sandwich; the sound, the sound of the hissing iron, the plopping of raindrops against the window, the imaginary laughter of the kids splashing in the street, my mom's singing or maybe humming, the creaking of the ironing board as she pressed her red hot applicance against it; the sight, in that dark room, of children in the street doing what I wanted to do but could not do, the sight of what I came to know as melancholy, something I defined, personally, as a good feeling of sadness; the touch of fingers and lips against the moist window, the touch that is an atmosphere, where you can feel the happy gloom, the dark light, are enveloped by this environment as if it were a womb of comfort and confusion.
Melancholy and happiness, warmth and loneliness.
Contradictions that seem to fit like pieces to the puzzle that is the enigma of existence. I adopted the word and made it my own and gave it my own definition, this word, melancholy, because I knew of no other word to describe being happily sad, sadly happy, warm and lonely.
Tonight there is thunder and heavy lightening and great rain, and I recall that day with my mom.
John Muir was a hero of mine early on. I learned that he would climb trees in Alabama to experience hurricanes as they blew through and thought this was admirable. Still do. I've been known to go out into such storms to capture the power of nature personally. Nature had never let me down.
Tonight, I stayed inside. The dog took his turns between huddling next to me and finding mama when the crackling got too serious even for confidence in me. The cat sat outside until the winds picked up and then cried to come in, even if I know such behavior embarrases her. To his credit, when I decided on a whim to take recyclables out in the midst of it, Cody (the dog) came out with me, although admittedly his attempts to go to the bathroom were half-hearted at best.
People take pictures. Some of them, some of my friends, even, take fantastic photos, wonderful photos, beautiful photos, photos that I can only imagine taking if I had a butterfly or a flower that I could order around like a hired model. But nothing captures nature like being in it, especially when it is being special, when it is being its most powerful, glorious, bestial best.
I don't know why I brought this up.
Oh, this isn't the reason, but I got my teeth cleaned yesterday. I swore I would have nothing done until and unless I got positive (good) results from my last CT scan. I did. My teeth are clean. My lungs are purportedly clean.
I spent some time in the rain, fearless of the lightning.
Glad you have clean teeth, clean lungs and a respect and admiration for nature that has served you well. Keep writing Joe, we are reading and as always impressed with your skill with words.
Thank you, ma'am. Your words are uplifting. As you have seen though, I now feel that to get to as many folks as I can (the great majority of my FB 'friends' come directly from their association with people I have known here in CSN) I feel I sometimes need to repeat there.
Feels a bit like self-promotion when I do it, but as you have also evidenced, the response is typically larger there.
Anyway, again, thank you, my friend.
Take care,
Now you got me thinking about my dad. Thanks, glad everythings good.
Once again, you lull me into peaceful bliss with your writing..."thanks"! :) Sue
It is so nice to get feedback, Sue, to know that someone is reading it, great to know that someone is finding some comfort in at least some of it.
Take care,

MLB 2K13 My Player Guide – Tips and Strategy
2K has released its simulation of baseball, MLB 2K13 on the PS3 and Xbox 360. Like any 2K sports simulation game, MLB 2K13 also has a fun and addictive 'My Player' career mode.
In this game mode, players are charged with the responsibility of guiding their created players from the substitute benches into the Hall of Fame. It is safe to say that this is a daunting task indeed. However, with the aid of this guide, we aim to help you during this journey.
MLB 2K13 My Player
The best thing about My Player mode is its replay-ability value. Each position on the diamond requires a player with a unique play style and attitude towards the game. Of course, your own choices in this regard matter too. In other words, My Player mode is thoroughly addictive, and once you are hooked on it; you will never be able to get enough.
Creating Your Player
First of all, you will be given a choice between being a pitcher or a fielder. Both options are then further divided into nine categories. Each of these nine categories has their own positives and negatives.
Keep in mind that this choice will highly affect the degree of difficulty through the rest of the My Player Career mode.
Furthermore, if you decide to make your player a fielder; he will have the distinct advantage of having a 'secondary position.' This means your player can easily play at two spots on the diamond. For example, your player can be a catcher and have a secondary position of first base.
Just don't make a player whose primary position is a catcher, and secondary position is the center field.
Overview of the Classes
Think of these roles as nine different classes you can choose for the fielder. Each one of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. You will have to pick very carefully from these nine choices if you want to create a player that reflects what you want him to be on the field.
The choices and their perks are listed below:
- All Around: This is the best choice by far. It offers up good all-around ability for your player.
- Contact: You can expect to get more than a few hits out of him but he has little less to offer besides that.
- Lead Off: This class has tremendous acceleration which means it has excellent base stealing potential. However, it falls flat on all other counts.
- Speedster: This class offers up the speed. Sadly, it is the only thing it offers.
- Slugger: Similar to the 'Contact' class but it offers more power. Expect to hit homeruns or nothing at all. This is the 'go big or go home' type of class.
- Utility: Don't know why they even bothered to make this class. It is utterly useless.
- Gold Glover: Nothing falls through his hands. Unfortunately, that is all there is to this class.
- Clutch: Extremely good clutch rating but his other ratings are not as stellar.
- Team Leader: Literally a copy of 'All Around' class.
The clear out of this lot is the 'All Around' class. However, if you still want to change some things up a bit, then go for the 'Slugger' or 'Contact' class. If you pick something else you are in for a bad time.
Like the fielders, pitchers also have nine classes to choose from. You will be glad to know that unlike the fielder classes, most of the pitcher classes have far more functionality and practicality on the field.
Keep in mind that the class you choose will also affect the type of individual pitches you will have at your disposal in the game.
- All Around: This class is for the jack of all trades. This isn't really good at something nor is it really bad at something.
- Strike Out: It is really has to hit this guy for a hit as he has good velocity and movement. Since he also has low stamina, it is best to choose this class if you are going to make a change in the middle of the innings.
- Ground Ball: This guy won't get hit for homeruns ever but they will score ground hits off of him.
- Fly Ball: Has decent pick-off, but fairly below average in other attributes. Average pitch statistics.
- Work Horse: As the name suggests this class has high stamina and also fair stats to go along with it. This class is best suited for starting pitchers.
- Finisher: Excellent to play at the last few innings of the match. This class has very good velocity and movement but extremely low stamina too.
- Clutch: Has a good clutch rating, but offers little else. Average pitches.
- Control: Quite like the 'All Around' class. However it offers more control over your pitches then speed or movement.
- Team Leader: Like in the case of fielder this class is indistinguishable from the 'All Around' class.
After all this, you will get the chance of picking your three pitches to start your career. Remember, that it is obligatory to pick a fast ball of some sort to for your first choice. For some reasons, slider pitch can only be selected in the second slot. Furthermore, your speed, control, and movement are all based off of your player role thus they won't get affected by the type of pitches you choose.

The Magazine
Jan 19, 1998, Vol. 3, No. 18 • By DAVID FRUM
THE CO-PERPETRATOR OF THE WORST terrorist attack in American history; a woman convicted of pick-axing two sleeping people to death; a cold-blooded mail-bomber on trial for two murders and two maimings: These are some of the people who have convinced sympathetic listeners that they ought to escape the maximum legal punishment for their crimes. The death penalty is unequivocally constitutional. It is supported by a crushing majority of the American people. Moralists from the authors of the Bible to John Stuart Mill have regarded it as just. And yet somehow Americans encounter the most enormous difficulty persuading their justice system to put it into effect.
Every year at about this time, the newspapers run stories about the rapid rise in criminal executions in the United States. Spread over half a dozen columns, illustrated with charts that show death sentences rocketing upward like the Dow Jones industrial average, they present an image of a country grimly bent on snuffing out as many lives as possible. The Washington Post offered a fine example of the genre on December 15, in a story observing that the number of executions nationally hit a four-decade high in 1997 and that Virginia executed more people than it had in any year since 1909. "I think the death machinery has kicked into high gear," the Post quoted the director of the American Civil Liberties Union's Capital Punishment Project as saying.
You'd think that the whole United States was crackling with the sound of the electric chair. But as so often, the newspaper stories are misleading. No, they're not literally dishonest. It is indeed true that in 1997 the United States executed twice as many criminals as in 1994, that it executed twice as many in 1994 as it had in 1989, and three times as many in 1989 as in 1983. That's one way to tell the story. But here's another: At no point in the 20 years since the Supreme Court reauthorized the death penalty has the number of murderers executed in this country exceeded the number of Americans killed by lightning.
In 1997, 74 killers were put to death, bringing the total number of executions in the United States since capital punishment resumed to 432. Over the same two decades, nearly 500,000 Americans were murdered. Assuming that most killers kill only once, the average murderer has faced a less than one in 1,000 chance of suffering the maximum theoretical legal punishment for the taking of innocent life. Let's put it this way: Committing a murder in the United States today is almost nine times safer than being drafted during the Vietnam War; the 11 million men inducted between 1965 and 1973 faced a one in 130 chance of dying in Indochina. You often hear it said that the death penalty doesn't deter. If not, it may be because, from the point of view of a killer, execution is a contingency as remote and hypothetical as going to hell. Rather more remote and hypothetical, actually.
Americans are now congratulating themselves on the spectacular fall in crime over the past three or four years. It is genuinely impressive. But it's worth remembering that today's crime rates have fallen back only to the levels that prevailed in the late 1970s (or, in the case of star pupil New York City, the late 1960s) -- levels that were at the time viewed as shocking and outrageous. By world standards, by the standards of America's own history, this country remains a terrifyingly dangerous place. Perhaps one reason that the country used not to be so dangerous was the greater willingness of courts in those days to sentence the most heinous offenders to the ultimate punishment. In the 1930s, when Harlemites could sleep on their fire escapes, the country executed between 150 and 200 criminals per year.
It is often said that the death penalty is rare because juries are reluctant to impose it: Seeing a human being in the dock, they cannot bring themselves to condemn him to death. That's untrue. From the beginning of 1977 through the end of 1996, American state and federal juries condemned more than 5,500 murderers to death. At trial, jurors are required to look the defendant in the eye, while the crime can be conjured up only by immaterial words and sorry little scraps of admissible evidence. But even so, when they encounter an atrocious crime, jurors are generally willing to enforce the law. No, it's not juries that have made the death penalty an arbitrary, freak occurrence; it's the determination of a small band of activist lawyers to thwart the commands of the law, and the even more troubling willingness of the courts to let the law be thwarted.

If not, yeah. The overwhelming majority of "celebrities" pay people to do this sort of work for them. They may have a team of people posting as them on Twitter, or on Facebook. They also pay people to sign autographs through the mail. If it surprises you to know William Shatner doesn't answer his own fanmail, then I'm sorry but the reality is they don't.
Mira Furlan, Pat Tallman, Claudia Christian, and Jason Carter have been off Babylon 5 for about 15 years. With the exception of Mira's role in Lost, none of them have had a "hit" since then. Yet all four have teams of people who post as them on Facebook.
George Takei has his own team of people who do the same thing.
What makes you think Shatner is the exception? That he's waiting by the computer, desperate, hoping someone is going to send him a message on Facebook?
I don't know if that is true about Tallman.A friend of mine has had some long discussions with her, I think with PM's. Also she posts on JMS's fb as with the same account.
Pat does at random. Other times it's the helpers posting as "admin".
"Sorry. Wrong movie, buddy."

Suikoden II: Tonfa.riulyn said:I have no idea what weapons/weapon-type the main characters of Suikoden II and V use but those are pretty cool.
It's pretty ingenious design-wise if you think about it:watcher said:Historically speaking, swords were always rich man weapons and spears were the cheaper, and generally more effective weapon (or axes against tougher armor). Heck, the only historic military that I can think of that gave its standard troops swords was the Romans, but it still played second to the spear type weapon.
As far as militaries go, spears were definitely the most common. Farming implements and bludgeons and the like were probably more common in rebellions.Jitawa said:It's pretty ingenious design-wise if you think about it:
1. Let's get something pointy or sharp that I can hurt someone with.
2. Let's put it on the end of a long stick so they can't get close to me when I use it.
I'd assume many weapon types weren't practical depending on locale in history. People in ancient history wouldn't have always had ready access to metal in large quantities and not every place necessarily has a forest. I'd assume a bludgeon or farming implement was the most common weapon type, just going by the odds. Spear makes sense though.
Maces and hammers became much more widespread during the Middle Ages as high quality armor became more common. A good shot from a hammer will break your bones no matter how much armor you wear.I'd assume a bludgeon or farming implement was the most common weapon type, just going by the odds.

MLB notebook: Marlins reliever Jennings has concussion; CT scans negative
Pirates/MLB Videos
• CT scans on Marlins reliever Dan Jennings were negative Thursday night after he was struck in the head by a line drive off Pirates shortstop Jordy Mercer's bat. Jennings suffered a concussion. Jennings tweeted: "Pirates fans showed amazing support tonight. ... Marlins fans supporting too."
• The Cubs' waiver claim for Phillies left-hander Cole Hamels didn't result in a trade, and the Phillies pulled Hamels back from waivers. A major league source said that Cubs took a longshot chance in making the claim for Hamels, but the Phillies weren't going to deal Hamels without getting at least two top prospects in return. The Cubs acquired right-hander Jacob Turner from the Marlins in exchange for minor league right-handers Jose Arias and Tyler Bremer.
• The Dodgers placed Josh Beckett (hip impingement) on the 15-day disabled list for the third time this season. Beckett is 6-6 with a 2.88 ERA.
• Mark Teixeira was out of the Yankees lineup for a second straight game after getting spiked on the left hand in a play at home plate Wednesday.
• The Cardinals placed right-handed reliever Jason Motte (lower back sprain) on the 15-day disabled list.
• The Giants placed first baseman Brandon Belt back on the seven-day concussion list. Belt missed 12 games with a concussion before being activated Aug. 2.
• Mariners utility player Willie Bloomquist will miss the rest of the season after undergoing microfracture surgery on his right knee.

Current coupons apply to merchandise only, and form should figure correctly if the correct code is put in. Coupons do not apply to shipping, though shipping is based on a lower total. If your order qualifies, choose the one coupon which fits the amount of your order; the system will only let appropriate coupons go through.
Coupon Code DKK5 for 5 percent off orders $225.00 or higher is available until cancelled.

We hope you enjoy browsing our store . We have many lovely choices. Thank you so much for your business.
It normally takes 2-4 days for an order to ship after it is placed and sometimes longer if the weather here is bad, though most orders get filled much faster after they are paid. There is additional travel time to you.. Standard shipping for packages most likely will mean sending packages USPS 1st Class if 13 oz or under, Priority if 14 oz to not over 2 pounds, and USPS Parcel Select within the mainland USA. FedEx Ground/Home Delivery may be chosen in the rare case that it is more economical, but in 2015 rates have risen so sharply for home delivery, rural area additions, to the East Coast, and dimensional that it is no longer a viable choice, but may be offered on request. Wait for a quøte. It is best for packages to Hawaii and Alaska to go at least by USPS Priority Mail, though 1st Class Mail will work for small packages 13 ounces and under. We do send them Parcel Select, but this can be quite slow. We use Endicia U-Pic, InsurePost, or ShipSaver shipping insurance for most USPS packages over $50.00. Packages totalling up to $50.00 that go by USPS Priority mail are automatically insured by the post office. We usually adjust shipping prices downward before the final charge for customers living closer to Calif. and items that are smaller and lighter than the usual package on our rate chart, and anything that can go by insured 1st Class Package shipping. We are also happy to adjust shipping for PayPal customers.
If a package is international, Priority Express Mail International takes a week and can be tracked, Priority International Mail takes 2-3 weeks and can also be tracked with the exception of small flat rate boxes and merchandise in envelopes. 1st Class Package International mail can be used for smaller international packages weighing under 4 pounds and take 4-8 weeks. These cannot be tracked, but there is delivery confirmation on packages to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and some West European countries. Insurance claims cannot be filed until 45 days have passed or 60 days for Italy.

5 meter long oarfish discovered off California coast
- Uploaded by Ur_lnner_Voice on Oct 16, 2013
- Views: 285
A marine science instructor in the US has found a five-meter long Oarfish while snorkeling off the Southern California coast.
Jasmine Santana of the Catalina Island Marine Institute needed more than 15 helpers to drag the giant sea creature to the shore. The oarfish can grow to more than 15 meters and it's the longest bony fish in the world. It apparently died of natural causes and it will be buried in the sand until it decomposes and then the skeleton will be re-constructed for display. Tissue samples and video footage have been sent to be studied by biologists at the University of California.

VIMS Emeritus Professor unveils climate-change art at W&M
Emeritus Professor & ArtistVIMS Emeritus Professor Maynard Nichols developed a passion and talent for painting following his 32-year career as a marine scientist.
From Left: Dr. Maynard Nichols admires one of his paintings with W&M EcoAmbassador Aiyana Bodi, VIMS Post-Doc Sam Lake, and VIMS Ph.D. student Jenna Spackeen.
Dr. Nichols poses with his favorite painting from his 22-piece "Climate Change" exhibit in the Botetourt Gallery at W&M's Swem Library.
News Source : VIMS Emeritus Professor unveils climate-change art at W&M
A series of 22 paintings by Maynard Nichols, artist and emeritus professor at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, are on exhibit in the Botetourt Gallery at the College of William & Mary's Earl Gregg Swem Library.
The exhibit—aptly titled "Climate Change"—is a contribution from Nichols to W&M's celebration of Earth Week, and focuses on the important issue of climate change and its impacts on the planet.
Nichols retired from VIMS in 1992 following a 32-year career studying the transport of sediments and pollutants in estuaries. His work had important and long-lasting implications for sand mining, flood-zone mapping, Kepone clean-up, and channel dredging and dredge disposal in Chesapeake Bay. Since his retirement, he has been active in the local art scene, exhibiting his Bayscape watercolors throughout the Tidewater region.
Nichols says the goal of his latest exhibit—which took two-and-a-half years to complete—was to translate scientific features and processes into fine art. His paintings document the entire process of climate change—from causative agents, to signs of change, to impacts and possible solutions.
"It's important for me to convey the impacts of climate change through my artwork so I can try to show people that this is a serious problem that needs attention," says Nichols. "I also want to see if translating science into fine art is useful in educating non-scientists."
Nichols' paintings combine a wide variety of sources, techniques, and media. The exhibit draws from photography, satellite imagery, scientific illustrations, and personal interpretations. "Multimedia paintings are like visual experiments that explore design and discover ideas through shape, color, and texture," says Nichols. "My hope is that they will provide a visual journey, along with an educational experience."
In addition to Nichols' exhibit, artwork from other local artists is currently on display in the Botetourt Gallery as a part of an Earth Week art competition. All of the submissions in the contest were made using recycled materials and/or relate to sustainability in some way.
Earth Week is hosted each year by W&M's Committee on Sustainability. This year, two student interns in the EcoAmbassador Internship Program joined with Patrick Foley, the College's Sustainability Fellow, to plan the activities, including Nichols' exhibit.
Foley is responsible for coordinating sustainability initiatives for W&M's COS, and for promoting the College's sustainability goals. He works closely with students, faculty, and administrators on a wide variety of issues. Aiyana Bodi and Katie Thoma are this year's EcoAmbassadors who were chosen by the COS to communicate the message of sustainability to various departments and offices on campus.
Bodi says that she believes art is a great way to convey a message, especially one that might not come across as that important to many people. "Dr. Nichols' exhibit is great because it tackles the topic of climate change—which is still controversial and not well-understood—and makes it accessible to the general public, hopefully making them more aware of the issue."
W&M Earth Week 2014 runs from April 14th through the 19th. This year's theme is the five senses, with each day of the week featuring activities that awaken one of the five senses—taste, smell, touch, sight, and hearing. For its part in Saturday's grand finale celebration, W&M will join with Alma Mater Production to host "Homebrewaroo" from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Sunken Garden. The event will feature student organizations, local businesses, a petting zoo, music, food, and more.
"We're all really excited about this year's celebration of Earth Week," says Bodi. "We hope that it not only gets the attention of people already interested in the environment, but also those who may not know that much about these topics."
Nichol's exhibit—along with the art competition entries—will be on display in the Botetourt Gallery through April 21st.

Michelle Duggar reveals most memorable wedding gift on 30th anniversary
A gift perfect for her growing family! In honor of her 30th wedding anniversary, "19 Kids and Counting" star Michelle Duggar recently revealed the most memorable gift she and husband Jim Bob received for their 1984 nuptials.
PHOTOS: Stars who got their start on reality TV
"Wow, I had so many wonderful gifts from that special day. There are quite a few that come to mind, but there's one in particular that my family and I really appreciated and use to this day," the 47-year-old replied to a fan on her TLC blog.
"When Jim Bob and I were setting up our home, we had a beautiful wood table that folded out so that you could add leaves and make it really big. We found it used and just loved it. Of course, when we were first married, we kept it folded down because there were just two chairs and the two of us at the time," she continued. "So as a surprise, a sweet elderly couple that lived near us arranged to make us something really special for the table. They were like our adopted grandparents and they lived three doors down from our first honeymoon cottage."
The gift the couple received was a handmade crochet tablecloth, an item that would come in handy once they began to expand their now famous family.
PHOTOS: Celebrity couples -- then and now
"The best part was that they made it big enough to fit the table when it was fully expanded with all the leaves in place. When they presented it to me, I just cried," Duggar wrote. "I had dreamed of the day we could expand the table to its fullest and see a big family around it."
"That tablecloth has been a special keepsake all these years," she added, "and I have used it over and over."
The couple said "I do" in the hallway of a church because it was still being built, Michelle noted in a previous blog post. They had a "sweet and simple" wedding, and Michelle even made her own bouquet and cake.
The Duggar children wished their parents a happy 30th via their official Instagram account this month. "Happy 30th anniversary to the most amazing parents ever!" the kids wrote, along with a throwback picture collage of the duo on their wedding day. "More in love today than ever! And such a great example for all of us kids!"
Michelle Duggar recalls her budget honeymoon: There were cobwebs everywhere!

Only A Kiss"Only a Kiss"Only A Kiss11 years ago in Scraps More Like This
By: Ebony Starfire
Inspired by: Tcregan
"Oh Dean, I'm so scared! What are those cavemen gonna do to us?"
Hank paused as he walked past his room, looking for Dean. That high-pitched voice sounded slightly familiar. He peeked into the bedroom to see Dean sitting on his bed but he was alone.
"Shh hush my love, I rigged it! Now relax Triana, and let your Prom King take care of you!"
Hank frowned, then started to snicker. Dean was talking to his hand! And then making out with it? What on earth? Dean paused for a moment, having heard his brother's muffled giggles.
"Gah! Hank, what are you doing?!"
"What? It's my room too, I can come in if I wanna. And besides, I think the more important question is what are YOU doing?"
He walked in and plopped on his own bed.
"You were spying on me! I had the door closed, you're supposed to knock! Now go away, I need some privacy!" Dean complained.
"To make out with your hand some more and pretend it's that new neighbor girl?"

When I'm going to be on my feet or showing my horse for several hours, I wear these therapeutic support socks. They keep my ankles from swelling, and they look good. The last pairs I ordered were long enough, like knee-high hose. I just wish they came in more colors, and I'd like to be able to order a mixed set of 3 or else be able to order just one pair in a color.

In your advertisements, you need to procalme the HG Compression rateing. This is a very important number to those that need a sertin amount of compression for their legs and feet. Too many times, I have ordered compression hosery that did not specify HG rateing, and they came and were only 5-10, when I needed 25-30. They were useless to me. so you see it is important. ... thank you........ P.S. I refer to items number 9683 or 4038

They wash easily in cold water in a net bag. I hang to dry. They used to come in white, which I liked for the summer to wear with athletic shoes. Hope you will get white again.
Great Support

I had been looking for some support knee highs in Navy and had a rough time finding any. I love these. They fit wonderfully with the support that helps my ankles. Thank you for your wonderful products and great prices.
Nice Support Knee-His
By Pat VV
from Aiken SC
I had VNUS closure surgery and my doctor said I need to wear firm (20-30) support knee highs to prevent a return of varicose veins. These work well for me and the price is reasonable.
Love them !
By Granny
from Glenwood North Carolina
I wear these everyday. They keep my legs from swelling and help with the circulation. Some may find them hard to put on but that is not the case for me and if you do your measuring before you order you will get a good fit too. I won't ever be without these.
Just the Ticket
By Dar the Cat Lady
from Toms River, New Jersey
These socks can be used every day to relieve my aching legs and improve the condition of developing varicose veins and help prevent further development. Thus they serve a practical and a medical purpose.
Therapeutic socks are worth their weight

The problem statement, all variables and given/known data The following equation is known as the "Rocket Equation": [itex]\frac{M+P}{M}[/itex]= e[itex]^{ΔV/C}[/itex] = mass ratio M = dry mass P = mass of propellant C = exhaust velocity ΔV = velocity change e^1 = 2.72 e^2 = 2.74 e^3 = 20.4 As ΔV/C goes up, the mass of the spacecraft goes up faster than the exponential, so much so that depending on the lightness of the structural materials and the density of the propellants employed, somewhere between ΔV/C = 2 and ΔV/C = 3 the mass of a single spacecraft will go to infinity! Please explain how and why the mass of the spacecraft will reach infinity? 2. Relevant equations [itex]\frac{M+P}{M}[/itex]= e[itex]^{ΔV/C}[/itex] 3. The attempt at a solution Shouldn't the mass ratio be equal to 1 if the mass is a really huge number? Or, does the propellant mass have something to do with it. I know that the propellant mass needs to increase along with the dry mass of the rocket.

Rescuers find missing man's bodyComment on this story
Richard's Bay - The body of a 22-year-old man who went missing near Richard's Bay has been found, the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) said on Tuesday.
The alarm was raised on Monday when people saw a local man in difficulty in the surf at St Lucia Beach, 80 kilometres north east of Richard's Bay, said NSRI Richard's Bay station commander Dorian Robertson.
However, there was no sign of him when NSRI rescue helicopters arrived at the scene.
His body was found washed up on the beach on Tuesday. - Sapa
