Guilde de Fromagers
Guilde de Fromagers: Official Launch of the North American Chapter
January 25, 2012 - 4:49pm | by kateDespite relatively little external fanfare, last week saw a significant milestone for North American artisanal cheese with the official inauguration of the North American Chapter of the International Guilde de Fromagers.
The Guilde, a non profit organization, was established in 1969 by noted French affineur Pierre Androuet with a view to promoting and connecting the work of cheese professionals around the world while also helping to maintain standards of cheese knowledge.
With American artisanal cheese's meteoric rise in recent years, it is no surprise that several members of the cheese industry from North America have been inducted into the Guilde. However until last week, they had to be inducted into other Chapters (such as Canada) since North America did not have a Chapter of its own.

I am having problems with some programs when using overlay-scrollbars, mainly Code::Blocks and Eclipse. Is there a way to blacklist only this applications from using the new scrollbars? I've found several ways of disabling the overlay scrollbars completely, for all applications, but I like them and I don't want to do this. Thanks you
I am going to answer my own question. Thanks to the user "SevenMachines" in ubuntuforums, I've found a way to disable overlay scrollbars for a specific application. I did a shell script with the following (for eclipse, for example):
Then, make it executable, and using the "Menu editor", changed eclipse to point to the script. | |||||||||||||||||
Alternatively, in your
In fact, you may also want to add
[Note: that this will only take effect once you restart your bash shell] | |||
| ||||
You could edit the .desktop File like this:
...then put...
to the Exec Field that the file looks afterwards like this:
I use the unity-launcher-editor to easily change this via a GUI. | |||||
A more generic alternative to the above answers would be this simple script that I called "regular-scrollbars":
Save that someplace on your path, and then you can use the menu editor to add "regular-scrollbars" before any command you want (as long as it only has one argument - try "@$" if you think you'll need more than one). This means you won't have to make a new script for any other programs you want to revert to the old scrollbars. I really like the bashrc alias example too though, you could probably make it more generic by providing a list of programs you want to revert and having bashrc loop over them, adding the aliases. | |||
For the specific issue of overlay scrollbars in Eclipse, I was able to get them working properly by following the instructions in this blog post and a related Ubuntu question. You edit the eclipse launch script.
And comment out an environment variable that is working around some old bugs that are supposedly now fixed.
The next time I launched Eclipse, the scroll bars worked. | |||

The human tradition in modern BrazilThe Human Tradition in Modern Brazil makes the last two centuries of Brazilian history come alive through the stories of mostly non-elite individuals. The pieces in this lively collection address how people experienced historical continuities and changes by exploring how they related to the rise of Brazilian national identity and the emergence of a national state. By including a broad array of historical actors from different regions, ethnicities, occupations, races, genders, and eras, The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil brings a human dimension to major economic, political, cultural, and social transitions. While many books on modern Brazilian history emphasize the growth of the state and the oscillations of nationalist sentiment by generalizing about groups of undifferentiated people such as slaves, industrial workers, army officers, Indians, and clerics, The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil brings a personal perspective to broad historical events and trends. Because these perspectives do not always fit with the generalizations made about the predominant attitudes, values, and beliefs of different groups, they bring a welcomed complexity to the understanding of Brazilian society and history. These original and gripping vignettes of life and society in Brazil are sure to engage readers with its colorful stories of Brazilians throughout the past. |

Overall it was a great experience for the price! The beds were small and the infrastructure a bit older, but still very clean. Perfect location as well. The staff was very nice and extremely helpful!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great for the price and convenience"
Overall stay was good. The good things are the convenience of the location for what we were doing that weekend. The room was clean(the bedspread had a stain on it. they put the stain near the floor to try to hide it). The breakfast was good. Waffles and biscuits and gravy!! Fruit and cereal! Everything was tasty. The lobby was clean and newer. The building […] itself is very old. The outside has not been redone in forever and it should be!! The elevators were tiny tiny!! You can fit three people with no stuff in it maximum!! And it was creaky!! .We took the stairs. When we got there the bathroom floor was wet and so was the tub. We think someone had just cleaned the room and didn't bother to dry the floor, it did eventually dry. The furnace works weird. It was freezing when got to our room and we couldnt get it to warm up, when we asked at the front desk, he said give it a few minutes it is on a sensor and will warm up and it did, but it was weird. Given all the good and bad I would stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"good clean cheep room"
Very good location. Close to Bankers fieldhouse and nightlife on Georgia st. If your looking for a hotel that has lots to do this is not it, but if you want a clean affordable room downtown Indy. It is a great option.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great for the price"
I don't think you can beat this hotel for the price downtown. It is not luxury but it is clean and the staff is friendly. The beds were very comfortable and breakfast is provided in the morning. The hotel is very convenient to Bankers Life Fieldhouse.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"reasonable and less than current in decor"
There was some water damage around the windows. The room was small and comfortable. The staff are just wonderful! Very attentive. Good price for the location.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Pleasantly Surprised!!!"
It was a very nice hotel. It has been updated very nicely! Its an older hotel but the room was exceptionally clean and nice. The front desk clerk , I think her name was Karin, was just as sweet as she could be.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very convenient - good price."
The only bad thing in the hotel is the elevator. That was scary!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The staff went above and beyond to providr us with excellent service.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
It was below standards for the following reasons; 3 no wake up calls, had to wait for a long time prior to having a workable iron sent up to the room making me late for an appointment. I would not suggest staying at this location for those issues listed. (can you emagine not having a wake up call to your meetings OR upon your check out at 3;00 am knowing […] you called twice to confirm your wake up call)! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"A strong displeasing chemical odor permated room"
My friend and I thought the room looked clean, however there was a strong displeasing chemical odor on the second floor, and in our room. It was very late and we had to keep the room. We turned on the air conditioner and froze all night trying to keep the smell down in the room. We will not be staying at this hotel again. Furthermore, the elevator was […] way out-dated. It barely fit three people and there were not call numbers to let a person know what floor they were even on when exiting the elevator. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Breakfast could be better selection, a little shabby at the 'edges' but staff very helpful.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"La Quinta Sketchy"
Scared when I noted the elevator inspection listed location as "Days Inn" which I always avoid. Upon exiting the black painted elevator (scary in itself) I was rained upon by a leaking ceiling. The following days there was a waste bucket there gathering water - struggle to get suitcase around. The room was OK; could hear nearby trains going by regularly […] but easy walk to Convention Center (right past the jail). Area of downtown going through obvious transition but for now, one to AVOID. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"college fair"
I was not happy with the hotel at all. The elevators wre creepy, the parking lot was too tight. The room was dirty,Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"It's Okay"
The staff is amazing, condition of the hotel is not the greatest, beds are hard, walls are thin, but it's clean and everything works. If you're not wanting to spend big $$ it'll do for a short trip.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient, Clean and Cost-effective"
Very comfortable and conveniently located in the downtown area. The front desk staff were very helpful and informative about the surrounding communityGenuine Hotels.com guest review
It was good, nice staff, nice rooms except that one of the sheets had a weird pink stain on it :( good breakfast. Overall a good and quiet hotel :)Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Pretty good for price"
If you don't want to spend twice for staying right in downtown, this is a good option. It's only 10 min walk from convention center. I am satisfied with my stay!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to Lucas Oil Stadium"
The front desk attendants were more than helpful, VERY accommodating. The elevators were very tiny, and our room could have been cooler....but, overall a nice place to stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"OK for the money"
The room was cheap, the bed was comfy, but the carpet in our room was dirty. If you went barefoot yuor feet turned black. Also our tub did not drain well trying to take a quick shower we were standing in ankle deep water. Overlook this and the price was right the location was nice, and staff was efficent.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel with great customer service."
Great customer service and close walking distance to downtown restaurants.Genuine Expedia guest review
Came to check in at 3:30 and the employee dressed in her uniform was chatting with someone in street clothes behind the counter. After being made feel like I rudely interrupted them by standing at the counter not talking just letting them finish their conversation, I was told that I had to move my car to a different parking area due to the side of the […] hotel I was placed. No biggie.... Inconvenient but no biggie... After our event we walked back to the hotel and this time NO EMPLOYEE. Was wanting an extra pillow and blanket for my father. Soooooo after zero service I went without a blanket and pillow so he could have extra. At 2:00 am a loud disturbance from next door from a rowdy room beating the walls and yelling warranted calling downstairs. Reassured they would take care of it we went back to sleep. 4:30 am same thing.... Same call... No results... At 6:00 we decided we would just go ahead and checkout and leave since we weren't going to get to rest. Once again no employee at checkout and we had to wait 20 minutes before someone showed up for our checkout. The "free continental breakfast" we were going to enjoy included pre packaged danish and fruit loops. Just not the experience I expected at all from this hotel Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"My stay at La Quinta Inn & Suites Indianapolis Dow"
La Quinta Inn & Suites Indianapolis Downtown is a nice place to stay. I stay there once a year to go to Colts games. Easy access to the Mall and Fine restaurants. And most of all, Lucas Oil Stadium.Genuine Expedia guest review
"nice hotel close to bankers life event!"
Was a clean decent hotel, breakfast was good, appreciated the free parking! And the closeness to Bankers life fieldhouse where our event was being held, was a blessing, as I have a fractured kneecap and couldn't walk too far! thanks :)Genuine Hotels.com guest review
We had a pleasant stay. The hotel was exactly what we wanted. BUT the sound proofing between rooms was bad. Our next door neighbors laughed into the night and again first thing in the morning. We had a little trouble sleeping@Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great service, rooms needing updates"
The location and layout of the hotel is confusing. We checked in to our first room with a toilet that wouldn't flush, our second room air conditioner was broken. The third room was great! The service was also great.. Probably would stay again just for a quick getaway.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"one day stay"
Was on the road all night...booked la quinta inn from hotels.com app on my phone...staff was nice...hotel was clean...no pool...fitness center is small...really close to downtown attractions and mall...24hr steak n shakeGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Free parking good amenities."
Free parking in the heart of downtown is nice. Building kind of scary from the outside but great for its price on the inside. Super friendly and helpful staff. Most comfortable pillows ever, kicking great air conditioning. Very clean. Elevator small and slow-- a little scary, but gets the job done. Can't beat this hotel for it's free parking, location, […] and price. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice staff, clean, otherwise disappointing."
The Bad: The general facilities of this La Quinta were outdated and shabby. The elevator was tiny and a strange shape and barely fit the luggage cart, only room for about two people in there comfortably. The room was small and very worn and there were things like part of the door frame missing in the bathroom which made my experience a little less enjoyable. […] When we asked for some extra sheets, they were stained. The Good: Given the rest of the facilities, the breakfast provided in the lobby was quite nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was decently comfortable and clean. Overall: If you want to stay downtown for half the price of the other downtown hotels and aren't picky about accommodations, this is your best bet. If you don't mind making a 10-15 minute drive into downtown, though, you can find many nicer options at a lower price. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Good hotel for conventions downtown"
We stayed here during the GenCon convention at the Indiana Convention Center. The hotel is 15 minutes walk from the ICC, close enough to be accessible but far enough to be away from the noise and crowds. The hotel is no frills, but when attending a convention, you're not likely to want more than a comfortable bed anways. There is a small grocer, Marsh's, […] nearby if you get tired of eating out. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hot and dirty"
When opening the door the room seemed hot. Noticed right away that it appeared someone had at the least been laying on top of the bed by the wrinkles in the blanket. Carpeting obviously hadn't been vacuumed. Turned on air and left room not wanting to take the time to get a different room. Upon returning to room exhausted found the room hotter than before. […] Tried everything to get AC working but ended up barely sleeping all night because of heat. Horrible! Will never go back. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
It was fine - the rooms were clean, the waulity and quantity of toiletries, towels, etc. were nice, the in-room coffee maker was nice and there was a microwave and refrigerator, which I didn't utilize but normally I would, particularly when I am awau on vacation instead of on busines. Front desk staff was very nice and helpful.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Easy Walk Everywhere"
We were attending an event at Lucas Oil Stadium. It was about a mile walk through downtown Indy which was great! Felt safe and didn't have any problems. One night it was raining and Indy has this great deal that a cab ride anywhere downtown is $5. It was a great alternative to walking in the rain! The hotel was certainly everything we needed but not […] much more. It was less expensive than staying right in the heart of downtown so the savings was well worth it. Free parking was a nice benefit as well!! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
It was really nice the people who worked at the front desk were very polite to talk to had me laughing. the breakfast was hot and good. so overall both thumbs upGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Light Bulbs"
The LaQuinta is a great value at $100 less than any other hotel in the downtown area. My only problems related to light bulbs. The elevator is tiny and old, but the light burned out while I was in it. CREEPY. One of the three lamps that light the bedroom was also out, so my room was a little dark for my needs. The breakfast was nice and the staff was […] super helpful. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very nice and close to downtown"
Great staff, clean and modern room. Will stay there againGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient downtown Indy location"
It's a shame the outside of this building & the cramped parking garage creates such a terrible first impression -- because everything else about this La Quinta is just fine. Friendly & helpful staff. Bright hallways with vending machines. Exceptionally clean room & bath.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Close to downtown."
Easy check in and out. Close to the activities we were doing. Clean and breakfast was just as they described!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not fancy but a great value"
Our stay was just overnight. At first glance it's a very ordinary looking place, nothing fancy that's for sure. But as we spent our time there we realized that the rooms were quite acceptable, the shower was excellent, the beds were comfortable, the facilities were clean, and the staff was friendly. On top of all that, it was a tremendous value. Parking […] on the premises at no charge; the room included both a fridge and a microwave; wi-fi worked fine for us and was free; and we were located right near downtown, within easy walking distance to the Bankers Life Fieldhouse for the event we came to see - so no hassle of having to drive there and pay to park in a cramped lot. My sister is handicapped and we were able to push here in her wheelchair all the way from the La Quinta to the Bankers LIfe Fieldhouse, saving us all a lot of hassle had we needed to drive and park. The next morning there was a nice free continental breakfast with waffles, cereal, yogurt, danish, toast, fruit, and other things. Though it supposedly ended at 9am, people were continuing to arrive and the staff was very pleasant and kept the breakfast up and available until everyone had gotten what they wanted. Nobody was rushed or turned away. The room was just over $100 for the night. Other times we've stayed at fancier hotels nearby which didn't include a microwave, didn't provide free wi-fi, cost 50% more and charged for parking much further from our room. La Quinta - not fancy but a great value. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Convenient location to downtown"
Hotel seems to have been nicely redone more recently. Could use a little more parking. Friendly staff.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Just ok!"
Cant really say anything exceptional or terrible. Just an average hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Downtown But near prison"
Great hotel for a place to stay at night. Decent breakfast choices. Right next door to a heliport which seemed to have no activity during the day but all kinds of activity at night. And 2 blocks from a prison so strange noises & sirens a couple of nights. However, the $ difference between there & a couple of blocks closer to downtown is astounding. […] For just a place to sleep & land, it's good. If you want more amenities, go elsewhere. Staff was very helpful - I'd had an 8-hour overnight travel & they cleaned a room early & allowed me to check in early. Lifesavers! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Downtown but not choice location"
Fairly clean hotel, but right next to heliport & a block from the jail. Convenient to downtown. The rooms & hotel itself do not at all look like the pictures on the website. If you just need a place to stay, this will work. If you need amenities, don't stay here.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"close to our convention"
The people were very friendly at front desk. Very helpful in knowing a lot about the downtown area. Greeting us every time we came in and each evening. My only complaint is when we got ready for bed around 10pm the first night, I pulled back my sheets to find 8 long black hairs on my pillow. I called the front desk to come and see for themselves. The […] younger gentleman at the desk said that their cleaning ladies were Hispanic and it could have happened when they were cleaning but the bed was even wrinkled like a person had slept on that side. He said he would get me clean pillows but I said I wanted clean sheets too. He brought them to the door and dropped them off---didn't offer to make the bed so I did. This is my only complaint. Every thing else was good. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hot hot hot"
The air conditioning didn't work properly. I called the front desk to inform them and they told me that the A/C automatically turned off when there was no motion in the room for a certain period of time. How are we supposed to sleep then??? Don't believe you.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice Hotel"
The front desk staff was pleasant and checked me in quickly. The room was clean. I had my 2 dogs with me and there was plenty of room for their crates. The parking deck is a little weird...tight spaces, but there is a large lot right next to it with plenty of parking. I would stay here again if coming to downtown Indy.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Within walking distance of downtown"
Hotel very close to everything downtown. Walked to the convention center and supper during the evening hours. Staff was respectful and helpful in every situation. The city was shutting off water overnight during our visit, the staff notified us at check in and offered to refund the reservation. At breakfast, my wife overslept and missed breakfast. The […] attendant went out of her way to make certain she had something to eat. I plan to stay here the next time in have a need to stay in Indy. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Easy walk to downtown"
It's an easy walk to downtown, although it's approaching the edge of where the neighborhood seems less nice. Room was totally fine and were the beds and our group really enjoyed the breakfast!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to issue a friendly challenge to the New Albany and Union County schools to see who has the most school spirit. After two weeks and great competition, I'm pleased to announce the winning school in the inaugural Gazette Student Section Challenge.
Congratulations to East Union's "Beast from East."
Now I will say that this was a very tough decision, and after the first night of the competition, I was a little fearful that I would not be able to come up with one winner, but what EU did on its night of judging was nothing short of awesome.
I'll start with the Ingomar/NA game. Both schools had a tremendous turnout, as Ingomar packed two sections with students, made several signs and successfully executed its "blue out" theme. The students were loud, respectful and looked like they had a great time.
The FRA also successfully executed its "classy" theme, and I want to note the turnout from this section, as they had a huge crowd, for an away game. That speaks volumes for the FRA, but unfortunately, I had to disqualify this group for one inappropriate chant before the start of the boys' game. I respect the FRA, and you guys are truly a pleasure to watch, but I did have rules in place, and I hate that your night had to end in disqualification.
I actually had a bet going with some people as to how long it would take the FRA to get disqualified, and I was being generous, giving them one quarter. If you chose the under, congratulations.
And I say this, knowing that in the eyes of the FRA, disqualification is a win.
So with the competition coming down to Ingomar, East Union, West Union and Myrtle, the Beast from East was the runaway winner, going above and beyond what I expected.
This was more than just hanging signs and the students cheering during both the boys' and girls' games, the Beast from East put on a show. All night.
First off, there were signs everywhere. I was told 24 total were made and hung throughout the gym. Going along with its name, parts of the gym and the hallway to the concession stands were decorated to create the effect of walking through a jungle, and the "beast" and several hunters were active throughout both games, getting not only the students, but all fans involved.
I was so engulfed by what the students were doing, that I couldn't tell you a single thing that happened in either game. They were that good.
Congratulations to the Beast from East on a job well done. You guys hold bragging rights until next year, and I think it's safe to say, you have set the standard for the other schools.
Because of the great turnout for this competition, I will put pictures of every school in the Dec. 28 issue, but as the winner, East Union will have its own picture page, a feature and a video that will be posted on the Gazette website.
I had way too much fun with the competition, and again I thank everyone who participated for their hard work!

Hem falls out
I have had to take these back twice because the hem falls out. Don't buy unless you love to sew.
June 7, 2012
Want more Lexie
This is a great lighweight pant for summer. I just wish the Limited had more Lexie pants in stores.
May 22, 2012
Smaller than other Lexies
I have several Lexie pants and love them all. The other review is correct, though, that for whatever reason, these pants are about a half-size smaller than other Lexie pants of the same size. This is mostly in the thigh/butt area, which is unfortunate since I liked these pants because they were roomier in that exact region! Definitely frustrating to have this one pair fit differently.
April 27, 2012
The Lexie pants fit me very well because I have curvy hips! I have them in multiple colors.
April 26, 2012
Love It
I have a small waist, but wide hips. It is very hard to find pants that accentuate my small waist, but fit my hips well. The Lexie fit is perfect! They are not to tight around my hips, but they fit my waist nicely. I bought a size 12...but I probably could fit into a 10. I chose to go bigger just in case I needed to do some alterations. Next time I will buy a 10.
March 7, 2012
Liked these until a button broke
I thought the fit on these was about average, but I wasn't crazy about the material. After sitting for just a few minutes the crotch area was wrinkled (not attractive). It wasn't terrible, but noticeable. The second time I wore them though, the top button broke and it can't be repaired. I definitely won't be buying another pair.
March 7, 2012
Very Disappointing
I've been shopping at the Limited for as long as I can remember, which means that I can pretty much pick out what will fit me and what won't. I've been wearing the Lexie fit for the past 3 or 4 years, and have always ordered my size online and they've fit perfectly! I was extremely disappointed with this pair of pants that I just ordered. They fit a lot tighter than my other pants that are the same size and Lexie as well. I even held them up to another pair of Lexie, and they were a good inch smaller than my other pair. I personally think that it's ridiculous that the Limited would change the sizing of their pants, especially for pants that you can only buy online. I hope that this is just a fluke in this particular pair, and that the Limited doesn't continue to shrink down their pants, because most women already have enough issues with weight and size as it is.

that is the cutest dog on earth! Great choice for our first dog, but I think they need another one. Two dogs are better than one, plus they have two children. And its not like they cannot afford to take care of him and the presidents dog has no risk of being neglected.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"The web site was very easy to use. So many beautiful products to choose from. I am the mother of the groom, so when I was planning our family shower, and then went looking for a shower invite, I did not want anything too feminine. I simply typed in coed shower and many popped up. This one was perfect because of the colors, blue and green and Mr. and Mrs. Next we have the rehearsal dinner to plan, and there are many, many beautiful ones. Must nail down date and time before I can order. Thanks"
"My sister (bride to be) was ecstatic with the design and overall look of the invitation. We surprised her with a design that is simple yet elegant. The printing was perfect. The combination of the fonts added more drama to it. Delivery was earlier than expected. It was so easy to order online and the proof reading service is effective. Will refer to friends and family and will definitely order again."
"So many great options to choose from on this website, but this design was a favorite. I think the curved corners and shimmer paper made the design really stand out, definitely worth the extra cost. So many compliments on these bridal shower invitations...it set the stage for a beautiful shower!"
"Everything about this invitation was just beautiful! The pearlized paper added a WOW factor. Wedding Paper Divas fretted about the clarity of the picture I submitted, but they did a first class job! The company was so accommodating & helpful in making my project a reality! Everyone just raved about how beautiful & delicate & perfect!"
"Everyone including the bride-to-be loved this invite. Get the designer review! It's free & well worth the extra day. The designer that reviewed my invite did an absolutely excellent job! It really made a difference in how the invite looked. I highly recommend these invites."

They say that when life hands you lemons, you should make lemonade. Well, I've decided to apply that to knitting… When knitting hands you a failed sweater, make a pillow! Ok, I know that doesn't sound quite as catchy but it works. Don't just throw your failed projects away, or let them sit in a bin as if you'll ever go back and fix them. You won't. My Aidez sweater I was knitting for our knit-along turned into an epic fail on my part. I don't really know where my brain was when knitting but it had a multitude of errors not limited to:
- a wrong way crossing cable on the back
- Being off 5+ stitches between the two sleeves
- topped off by making two left fronts instead of one left and one right
From there I just couldn't recover so I frogged a bit to square off the pieces and made a pillow!
It's still not without errors, but truth be told – I might get more use out of this pillow than the sweater!
I am, on the other hand, very happy with the yarn choice. I used Plymouth Select Worsted Merino Superwash and it knit up nicer than I expected it to, quite frankly. I have plenty left over for our next Knit-along project!

Kyle and Cliff traveled to Brazos County to purchase a pair of ATV's. Cliff was carrying $14,000 on him to purchase the ATV's and asked his brother to accompany him in order to help.
Cliff Wischnewsky was found lying on a metal cattle guard the following day on Texas 21, east of Bryan. The truck driver that found the body called the sheriff's office.
The ensuing investigation led investigators to New Mexico, where they found Kyle at a motel in Carlsbad. He was arrested by the Carlsbad Police Department.
During the sentencing, about two dozen friends and family members sat in the audience, as Cliff Wischnewsky's son Brett gave a victim impact statement.
"Now I want to address the person who did this," The Bryan-College Station Eagle reports Brett Wischnewsky as saying. "I will not call you by name because you are nothing to me. I could speculate why you would do something so evil, but I guess the why doesn't matter as much anymore. It's done. Nothing will ever bring my dad back."
Brett Wischnewsky said his uncle remained emotionless throughout his statement.
"He had no emotion," Brett Wischnewsky told the Tribune. "There was nothing there in his face or his eyes."
Brett Wischnewsky said he wanted his uncle to see the monster Brett thinks he has become.
"I wanted to show him that no one is afraid of him because of what he has done," he said.
Brazos County District Attorney Jarvis Parsons said the guilty plea was the best outcome.
"This case is extremely unique considering that the mother of the victim is also the mother of the defendant," he said in a statement. "There is no way for the criminal justice system to fill the void left by this defendant's actions on his own family. Considering everything, including the fact that the defendant will spend the rest of his life in prison for killing his brother, we believe that this sentence is a just result."
Brett Wischnewsky agreed.
"We are glad we don't have to go through a trial and everything associated with that," he said. "It would have been 10 times harder on everyone. I believe justice has been done, but I also don't think there ever could be enough of a punishment for what he did to this family."
Brett Wischnewsky said his family is now ready to move on and remember the person that Cliff Wischnewsky was.
"I want everyone to remember how good of a guy he was, the soul he had and how he would do absolutely anything for anyone," Brett Wischnewsky said of his father. "He was one of the good guys and unfortunately the world has too few of them now."
A Tomball man was killed and his son was severely injured, following a crash May 25 on FM 2978, near Dobbin-Hufsmith Road.
State troopers responded to the scene around 9 p.m. to find Magnolia firefighters working to remove victims from two vehicles. All three were in critical condition and transported to area hospitals via Life Flight.
Troopers said a 1997 Nissan driven by Piper Landon, 21, of The Woodlands, was traveling northbound and crossed the center line. The car crashed head on with a 2003 Subaru SUV, driven by Julio Reyes, 42, of Tomball. Reyes' 15-year-old son was also in the car.
All three were transported to Hermann Memorial in Houston, where Julio Reyes was pronounced dead upon arrival.
Troopers and Mont-gomery County District Atttorney's office investigators spent five hours at the scene, while also reconstructing the accident.
According to the Montgomery County Police Reporter, state trooper Sgt. Terry Barnhill believed that alcohol was a factor in the crash and may be the reason Landon crossed the center line.
The top two graduates for the 2013 senior class at Tomball High School have many things in common – extracurricular activities, grades, friends and they both attribute their success to one thing – hard work.
Rachel Mai and Amy Shaklovitz have been named as the top performers in their senior class of nearly 700 graduates. The pair are involved in numerous activities at the school, as well as in the community.
Mai and Shaklovitz sat down for an interview recently and here are their responses.
Q: What are your plans for college?
Amy: "I am going to Texas A&M. I'll be a general engineering major and after I complete my basics, I'm going to switch to petroleum engineering."
Rachel: "I am planning to go to the University of Houston and I'll be classified as a biology major. Hopefully, I'll be done with everything in three years and then I'm going to apply to dental school – the UT dental branch in Houston."
Q: What activities did you participate in while at Tomball?
Amy: "All four years I played volleyball and golf my freshman year. I did tennis my sophomore, junior, and senior years. I've been in National Honor Society, Student Council, Mu Alpha Theta (math honor society), Senior Girls and Spanish Honor Society."
Rachel: "I've been in Student Council and I've participated in Health Occupation Students of America (HOSA) for three years. I really enjoy HOSA because I want to work in the medical field. I've also been in National Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta. I also volunteer at a Vietnamese school in Houston."
Q: What advice would you give to younger students?
Amy: "I would tell them it's important to start early and keep up with your work."
Rachel: "I would tell them to have good time management and know how to use your time wisely and balance your school work and activities after school. I would also say to stay drug free and have fun."
Q: What will you take with you as you graduate from high school?
Amy: "The friendships. Being on teams in school I have made good friends and I know I'll keep up with them in college. Being on a team you really get to know each other and you get close."
Rachel: "Definitely, prom was memorable. Hanging out with friends at prom and project prom was great. It was magical like a dream come true."
Led by the Magnolia West High Interact Club members, students at MISD's Williams Elementary are going "green" this spring. For the past ten weeks, the students have been collecting recyclable plastic bottles and aluminum cans and bringing them to school. They collected more than 125 bags of them, which surpassed their original goal of 100. To spur their efforts, they made posters encouraging others to recycle, which were all entered into a contest.
Thanks to counselor Pamela Fairchild and sponsor HEB, on May 28, six students received $10 awards for their winning posters in the school's regular morning assembly. Winners were: Alexa Ramirez - Kindergarten; Natalie Smith - grade 1; Holden Stringer - grade 2; Cole Leonard - grade 3; Rebecca Cartwright - grade 4; and Ally Waid - grade 5. Approximately 160 students entered the Recycle Poster Contest. All participating students received green arm bracelets (with the message "WES makes a difference! WES recycles!") to remind them to continue to "go green" this summer.
Fairchild spearheaded the recycling effort at the school.
"We hope to inspire all the Magnolia ISD schools to recycle as part of a commitment to keep our community clean," she said.
Fairchild was grateful to the Keep Montgomery County Beautiful organization for including her school in the HEB grant, which funded the recycle bins and provided recycled pencils (made out of old currency) for each student.
Going green is nothing new for Williams Elementary students. Earlier this school year they established one of the area's first "butterfly" gardens on the school grounds. The beautiful garden of natural butterfly-friendly plants was planted on the school grounds by students, parents, teachers and volunteers of the US Green Building Council Piney Woods Branch, who helped fund the garden. Plants, garden tools and services were donated by Landology, Elizabeth Austin Landscapes by Design, Nature's Way, and Silversand Services.
"Our students are learning early about how to preserve our environment, which is sure to make them better citizens when they grow up," said Fairchild. "We members of the school staff are thankful to have this opportunity."
Tomball High School will hold its 2013 commencement ceremony June 8, at Reed Arena, on the campus of Texas A&M University, at 9 a.m. No tickets are required for the event and graduating seniors may bring as many guests as they wish. For more information visit wwwtomballisd.net.
