Colors and Rituals, Parks and Seasons
When my husband came home from the hospital, the day was cool with the first touches of autumn in the air. We sat for a while in our little snuggery, listening to the crickets outside the window. We have these little rituals, these quiet little ways of marking time and events.
That night we had our first caramel apples of the season. Each year, like Christmas decorations, they show up earlier in the grocery stores. We don't mind. Since then, we've probably consumed a dozen. I like mine in small doses, with some nuts or a sliver of cheddar as a counterpoint.
I've made my first apple crisp, and we've purchased apple cider from the farm stand. The smaller growers who sell at the farm market have had a tough season, but the larger farmers - the big three families with German names - offer everything imaginable.
I shop at both venues. My CSA box has been skimpy this year - lots of potatoes and greens but little else. Still my husband and I talked it over and decided we'd continue with the program next year. Lovely Lucy, the grower who started our CSA and by force of will, created a small farm market where there was none, deserves our support. She is strictly organic, tending to the same small farm she grew up on. She is married to D., one of the boys from my childhood "hood." It feels good to support her efforts.
Lucy shared with me some plans for an open market structure. She would like to see it in the park along the water, but probably faces an uphill struggle since the city demanded a fee for using the park this year, as I noted in an earlier post. I'll do what I can to be supportive; the park was a visible spot while the parking lot being used this year is off the beaten path, and sales are down, say the vendors.
Meanwhile, don't you love the colors in this photo, taken in Cahors in 2008?

super duper like apples. . I think of apples as a very dependable fruit: they travel well; an apple can easily hop in my tote bag and wait until I need a little snack; they are very good and sweet. Yes, indeed, I love apples.

The Federal Statistical Office said German exports dropped 1.1 percent in July over June when adjusted for seasonal and calendar differences. Economists had predicted a 0.7 percent rise, the dpa news agency reported.
Imports increased by 0.5 percent.
Meanwhile, the Economy Ministry said industrial production dropped by 1.7 percent in July over June, and it revised June's growth downward from a 2.4 percent rise to a 2 percent rise.
Still, the ministry said numbers from the first half of the year indicate that Germany's manufacturing sector is emerging from a period of weakness.
In the export report, the statistical office said that in unadjusted terms, Germany's trade surplus fell to 16.1 billion euros ($21.3 billion) in July from 17 billion euros the month before.
The office reports that July exports to the group of 17 countries that use the euro are down 0.7 percent compared with the same month last year, while exports to non-eurozone European countries rose 3.6 percent. Exports to non-European countries dropped 1 percent.
The eurozone economy emerged from recession in the second quarter.

Monsanto tests show commercial GMO-free wheat seed
resize text | Tweet |
"What is going on? This is an important question," said Fraley, who emphasized he was not pointing a finger of blame at the farmer. He said sabotage was a possibility.
"We are not ruling anything out at this point. We know that the circumstances are highly unusual. We're going to continue to do the research until we get to the answer," said Fraley
The company has ruled out a number of scenarios to explain the presence of the GMO wheat, including pollen flow or the sudden natural growth of genetically modified wheat that the company said was last field tested in Oregon 12 years ago.
Monsanto said when it shut down its experimental Roundup Ready wheat program it had all of the research participants either destroy their supplies or ship them to a USDA seed storage facility in Colorado.

The UTEP Mine Tracker is a co-curricular initiative that serves as a student's roadmap to success. The Mine Tracker enables registered UTEP students to access co-curricular activities that compliment what a student is learning in the classroom. Engagement in the UTEP Mine Tracker assists students in being more prepared for the ever-changing global market and become more competitive in the world of work and graduate studies. The suggested activities for the UTEP Mine Tracker are divided into four learning dimensions; Career Development, Civic Engagement, Global Perspective and Personal Enrichment. Each of the dimensions has three levels of engagement; Entering Student Stage, Engagement Stage and the Leadership Stage. The curriculum works as a guide to direct students along the path of student success. A student's progress through the stages is tracked and displayed on a personal progress screen which can then be printed on behalf of the University as a Co-curricular Transcript. Students who complete the entire curriculum will receive recognition for their achievement upon graduation from UTEP. |

Civic Engagement activities give students an opportunity to make a difference in society by contributing their talents, while learning how to relate to others.

Gnome News
The traditional Fall release of the Gnome desktop ushers in a number of useful new features.
The news is out – the current Gnome branch [1] is getting old, slowly but surely, and the time is right to think about a major version change. At the Gnome Users' and Developers' European Conference (Guadec) [2], which took place in Istanbul early in July 2008, Gnome developers looked into their options for Gnome 3.0. The result is that the number before the dot will change after version 2.28.
Of course, a major new version necessitates changes to the underlying Glib and Gtk+ libraries; however, the developers are just planning clean-up work in the form of API consolidation for the first major 3.X release. The first evidence of this library upgrade is Glib 2.18 or Gtk+ 2.14, the underpinnings for Gnome 2.24. It is not entirely clear whether the new Gnome really will be around in two years; in the meantime, work on the current Gnome components is continuing at top speed. The tried and trusted architecture, which has been around for more than six years, is far from the end of its tether.
In Gnome 2.24, the developers have again focused on details – and on the stability of the libraries and programs added last spring.
In addition to the stability enhancements, improvements to the Nautilus [3] file manager and new tools, such as the Empathy Instant Messenger client [4] and the Hamster time management applet [5], reveal that this desktop is still in its prime.
The Nautilus developers have introduced some very visible changes. For many years, users have asked for a split view (see the "Split View" box), and both developers and usability experts have turned down this request many times. The new tabbed mode included with tools such as the Epiphany [6] web browser (Figure 1) and the Gedit [7] text editor is a more open response to a similar idea. Users can press the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+T to open a new tab in a style reminiscent of Firefox.
Split View
File managers typically display the contents of one directory per window. In split view mode, which Gnome Commander [8] and other programs offer, the tool displays two folders adjacently in a single window. In many people's opinion, this makes file operations easier.
Tabbed view, which is only available in browser mode, supports drag and drop: Dragging a file or folder to another tab causes Nautilus to move the tab into the foreground. Of course, actions between windows work too. The developers have also added a space-saving compact view (Figure 2), and the file manager now supports all the view modes that its competitors offer.
In previous versions, files or folders with long names tended to mess up the way icons were grouped. This phenomenon is a thing of the past: Nautilus now displays the first three lines of the file or folder name.
Experienced users might want to use the GConf /apps/nautilus/icon_view key to change the default number of lines. The eject icon for removable media – such as USB sticks or iPods – is another new feature. Clicking the icon tells the computer to unmount the medium.
In the past, copying data from FAT32 partitions caused trouble if the filenames included non-standard characters. Nautilus would tend to trip over its own feet and fail to copy the files. The new version removes this issue, at the same time implementing the Freedesktop specification for the trash can.
Files a user deletes accidentally are restored to their original paths. Nautilus remembers the original filesystem location of every file or folder. If you want to add files to an archive called test.tgz, you can just drag the files to the icon and drop them on it. Internally, Nautilus launches File Roller [9], which handles the remaining tasks.
The developers have also corrected some errors in Nautilus. Gio and GVFS, which replaced the legacy GnomeVFS last spring, now work more reliably. Right now, about 90 percent of programs rely on the new virtual filesystem library – perfect conditions for finally burying GnomeVFS sometime in the near future.
Multimedia Pleasure
The latest release fixes many bugs in the Totem [10] multimedia player, which now not only plays movies and audio files, but also YouTube videos. Totem also offers support for digital TV (DVB).
Fans of home entertainment PCs no longer need to waste time configuring the remote control (LIRC). LIRC support now works for most remote controls out of the box.
The media player thumbnailer now uses cover art – if it finds it – for movies, too.
Deskbar Applet
The developers of the Deskbar applet, which serves as a kind of Swiss army knife for desktop search tools (Figure 3), have reintroduced some new features. The program again displays the history in a separate window, which was normal up to version 2.18. By pressing Del, you can delete individual history entries. All told, the new version contributes six new add-ons to the existing collection:
- Calculator: Deskbar evaluates requests such as 2*78-6*1.5 directly and returns the results along with the request.
- Google Search: An alternative to Yahoo search. Note that you need an external package for this (python-simplejson) on Ubuntu.
- Google Code Search: An interesting plugin for developers that searches for functions in public source code.
- Yahoo Suggestions: Makes suggestions on the basis of requests entered by the user.
- Wikipedia Suggests: Similar to Yahoo Suggestions; searches Wikipedia pages for suggestions.
- Twitter and identi.ca: Support for blogging services.
On top of these add-ons, Sebastian Pölsterl has integrated Capuchin [11], a background service that downloads and installs plugins.

PA Treasurer Polls Parents On College Savings
Pennsylvania Treasurer Rob Mc Cord says a recent parents' poll commissioned by his office found that all of the parents polled expect their children to have some kind of post-secondary education, but one in four had not saved any money to pay the tuition. He says his office has two guaranteed plans that give parents big tax breaks on money they save for their children's education, and that's not all.
"You get huge earnings advantages by using a 529 program as opposed to just putting it into savings' bonds or a savings account. You can get an absolute guarantee against tuition inflation, which is what the Guaranteed Savings Plan provides. We had a 118 percent tuition inflation over a decade at Penn State, but those who bought those tuition credits a decade in advance through Pennsylvania's Guaranteed Savings Plan got that decade-old price, so they got a heck of a return on their investment."
McCord Says the Pennsylvania 529 Guaranteed Savings Plan is tied to the rate of tuition inflation, so if you have an eight-year-old child and you start saving now through the plan, the rate you will pay when the child is 18 is today's rate, not the rate ten years from now.
