An Inn & Tent Cabin Hiking Adventure Explore two of California s finest natural wonders, Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks, located along the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada. Encompassing sparing peaks, alpine lakes, and stands of giant sequoia trees, these parks provide a stunning landscape where mountains extend into a seemingly endless sky. This trip has been created with plenty of flexibility to accommodate a wide range of individual interests and abilities. We have chosen non-technical day hikes for the reasonably athletic, and that best reflect the variety and scenic beauty that make up these extraordinary parklands. So join us for a week of active days and luxurious nights that is sure to quench your appetite for adventure and relaxation.
Inn Highlights: Beautifully crafted of cedar and stone and located within Sequoia National Park, Wuksachi Lodge is perched on a rocky outcropping some 7,200 feet above sea level with panoramic views of the high Sierra. Situated on the banks of the Merced River and at the doorstep to the national park, Yosemite View Lodge provides all the comforts of home. The Toulomne tent cabins bring back memories of Yosemite as the pioneers experienced it.
How difficult is this trip? ... Really. This terrain on this trip is hillier and more challenging than our Easy tours. It is intended for the average active adult who feels comfortable exercising 5-8 hours a day. The hikes are 4-12.5 miles, with additional miles optional, and include climbs of up to 1200 feet with options of up to 1500 feet.
Day 1. Hike to Giant Forest and Moro Rock in Sequoia National Park, Wuksachi Lodge For a real taste of solitude, we begin with a hike into the backcountry of Sequoia National Park. From Giant Forest we meander through one of the most majestic stands of Sequoia trees in the world. The General Sherman Tree, the world's largest living thing, towers above our path. Stroll through beautiful Crescent Meadow where brilliant wildflowers adorn its lush grounds. John Muir is said to have called this lovely, grassy open area the "gem of the Sierra". Now we connect with the High Sierra Trail, with incredible breathtaking views that make this a favorite of the Sierra's backcountry enthusiasts. After an exhilarating climb up Moro Rock, complete with steps and railings in places, we shuttle just a few miles to Wuksachi Lodge, located in the heart of Sequoia National Park.
Day 2. Hike to Pear Lake, Sequoia National Park,Wuksachi Lodge After a hearty breakfast and a short shuttle to the trailhead, we ascend through rich forest of white fir, cedar and sugar pine enroute to the high country. We'll be traveling along the famed Watchtower route where we can see far into the Tokopah Valley, where the biggest waterfall in the park, Tokopah Falls, tumbles over 1000 feet. Above tree line, Heather, Aster, and Emerald lakes will welcome us along the way to Pear Lake. After enjoying lunch at our high country location, we descend back to the trailhead and enjoy a second relaxing evening at Wuksachi Lodge. • Pear Lake hike [12.4 miles; 2250 feet of elevation gain/loss]
Day 3. Hike in Mariposa Grove, Yosemite National Park, Yosemite View Lodge After a morning shuttle to Yosemite, we hike in Mariposa, the Park's largest of three groves of Giant Sequoias. Mariposa Grove contains several hundred of these monarchs, including two of the 25 largest trees in the world. We begin the hike at The Fallen Monarch which fell more than three hundred years ago and continues to resist the process of decay. The Bachelor and Three Graces are a group of four trees, three of them growing very close together with the fourth a little more distant. Their roots are so intertwined that if one of them were to fall it would likely bring the others along with it. The Grizzly Giant is the Grove's oldest tree and most commonly thought to be the largest but that title goes to a less inspiring tree named The Washington Tree. Estimated at 2700 years old, the Grizzly Giant is 209 feet tall and 25.5 feet in diameter. The California Tunnel Tree was cut in 1895 to allow coaches to pass through it (and as a marketing scheme to attract visitors to the grove), and is now the only living tree with a tunnel in it since the fall of the Wawona Tunnel Tree in 1969. The Faithful Couple is a rare case in which two trees grew so close together that their trunks have fused together at the base. The Telescope Tree has been left completely hollow by decades of repeated fires. In spite of that, the tree is still living, as Giant Sequoias do not require a whole trunk to survive. It is possible to walk inside the tree and to look up at the sky. The Columbia Tree is the tallest tree in the grove and in Yosemite National Park. We continue our day with a late afternoon shuttle to Yosemite Valley, the site of our lodging for the next two nights.
Day 4. Hike the Panorama Trail from Rim to Valley in Yosemite National Park, Yosemite View Lodge You couldn't ask for a better way to experience the majestic splendor that Yosemite has to offer than by hiking the Panorama Trail. As its name implies, this trail offers incredibly panoramic views of Yosemite's cascading waterfalls, soaring granite monoliths and of the verdant valley floor below. Beginning with views of Half Dome and Clouds Rest from Glacier Point, the trail crosses behind Illilouette Fall after two miles and continues partially uphill along the Panorama Cliff. At the top of Nevada Fall, we descend past Vernal Falls on the Mist Trail, concluding at Happy Isles Nature Center.
Day 5. Hike to Lower Cathedral Lake from Tuolumne Meadows, Yosemite National Park, Tuolumne Tent Cabins Following a shuttle from the Valley to the high country of Tuolumne Meadows, we begin our hike to Lower Cathedral Lake. The trail is an ancient Indian Path and is now part of the John Muir Trail, a famed backpacking thoroughfare. Lower Cathedral Lake is among the most impressive of Yosemite's granite-wrapped High Sierra Lakes. It's surrounded by Cathedral Peak to the east and by Echo and Tressider Peaks along the southern shore, all over 10,000 feet in elevation. The eastern shore of the lake is a wide rock shelf that, besides being picturesque in its own right, makes a great place to hang out and recover from the swamp crossing we executed to reach it. If you trek to the far end of the lake, look west, Tenaya Lake lurks below. We stay tonight in the Tuolumne Meadows Tent Cabins. Our stay here evokes the early days of travel to Yosemite. The canvas-covered tents are wood-framed on a cement platform. There is no electricity but candles are provided for lighting. Shower and restroom facilities are located in the center of camp. The dining room, situated alongside the Tuolumne River, provides rustic a la carte dining for breakfast and dinner.
Day 6. Hike from Tioga Road to Yosemite Falls and Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, Fresno Our final hike provides a spectacular conclusion to our week together. Beginning at Porcupine Creek Trailhead off Tioga Road, we hike through red fir and lodgepole forest, follow Lehamite Creek and cross Indian Canyon Creek before arriving at Yosemite Point. From here we have a commanding view of Yosemite Valley and of Yosemite Creek hurling over the edge of the hanging valley in a spectacular and deafening show of force. At 2425 feet, Yosemite Falls is North America's highest waterfall. We then cross Yosemite Creek on a footbridge and begin the steep descent past the Upper Falls (1430 feet, alone one of the world's highest), "the cascades" (675 feet) and finally the Lower Falls (320 foot drop). Following a shuttle to Fresno, we say our farewells at approximately 5.30pm in Fresno.
Beautifully crafted of cedar and stone and located within Sequoia National Park, Wuksachi Lodge is perched on a rocky outcropping some 7,200 feet above sea level with panoramic views of the high Sierra. The Appletree Inn is a quaint cottage style resort situated on 11 wooded acres. Situated on the banks of the Merced River and at the doorstep to the national park, Yosemite View Lodge provides all the comforts of home. Day 1 and 2: Wuksachi Lodge Day 3 and 4: Yosemite View Lodge Day 5: Tuolumne Tent Cabins

Holidays can be tricky these days with so many people eating different diets. It can get stressful and time consuming to try and make things that are suitable for everyone. I'm a big believer in everyone being able to eat everything that is served and it doesn't have to be as stressful or complicated as it might seem. It's all about simplifying.
For example: If someone is eating gluten-free why not just make custard cups instead of pie? You still get the enjoyment of pumpkin pie without fiddling with a finicky gluten-free pie dough. If someone is eating dairy-free why not forgo the whipped cream and top it with a delicious brown sugar meringue instead?
This dessert is meant to please the masses at a family gathering, regardless of allergies (save for eggs, that's a hard one to beat with custard and meringue). It is also lower in processed sugar, which is always a bonus. It's highly adaptable to how you want to make it. Last year I baked it in a gluten-free pie crust and topped it with dairy-free whipped topping. Everyone who tried it said it was THE BEST pumpkin pie they had ever tasted, gluten-free/dairy-free eaters and not.
Now, let me give you some options so you can make this pie to suit your own needs or event. You can make this in full pie format with a regular pie crust or with a gluten-free pie crust. Or, make it as I did this time around and forgo the pie crust altogether and bake little custard cups instead. If meringue isn't your thing you can also top it with whipped cream or coconut (dairy-free) whipped cream. There are instructions for all of these options below.
I hope all you lovely Canadians have a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend! Enjoy the fall leaves while they're still here!
Maple Pumpkin Pie with Brown Sugar Meringue
Instead of the meringue you may also top this with whipped cream or coconut whipped cream. Simply skip any directions that involve the meringue topping and refrigerate the pies after cooling. Top with whipped cream just before serving.
Pie Filling
- 1 3/4 cup (or 1, 15 oz can) pumpkin
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2/3 cup almond milk (or preferred milk)
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
Brown Sugar Meringue
- 3 egg whites
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 recipe gluten-free pie crust or 1/2 recipe regular pie crust
- maple syrup
For pie filling: Whisk together pumpkin, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Add eggs and whisk gently just until combined. Gradually whisk in milk and maple syrup.
For meringue: Place egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Add vanilla, cream of tartar and salt. Beat on medium speed, with whip attachment, until soft peaks form (forms peaks when beater is lifted that fall over). Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating at high speed until stiff peaks form (forms peaks when beater is lifted that hold their shape).
To bake in a pie shell: Pour pie filling into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust (gluten-free or not). Bake at 450ºF for 10 minutes, lower the temperature to 350ºF and bake for 40-45 min, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Top with meringue and bake an additional 15 minutes, or until meringue is golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely* before storing lightly covered in the fridge.
To bake in ramekins or jars: Divide pie filling between 8, 1/2 pint jars or 6 oz. ramekins. Place jars into two baking trays with two inch tall sides. Carefully pour boiling hot water into the pans to come 1 inch up the sides of the jars. Carefully move to the oven and bake at 375ºF for 30-35 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Remove from oven. Lower heat to 350ºF. Divide meringue between jars, place back in the oven and bake 10-12 minutes, or until meringue is golden brown. Carefully remove the jars from the water and place on a wire wrack to cool completely*. Store lightly covered in the fridge.
If desired top pie with a drizzle of maple syrup just before serving. This will help hide any droplets that may form from condensation in the fridge.
*Because of the eggs in the meringue, do not leave at room temperature for more then 2 hours.
Makes: 8 servings

Then I add the rest of my ingredients and pour the filling into a pie crust. And bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees. Here is a recipe card with all the details for you.
So I went over to his place with my baking supplies, and started to make it. He helped and watched a football game while it baked. Everything went according to plan and out of the oven came a beautiful pumpkin pie. I sat it on the counter top for awhile to cool and then we cut it. He took a bite or two and I asked him how it was. He said....... fine.
Fine????? Fine!!!!!! JUST.........FINE?!?!?! (In my head I'm thinking only woman like Martha Stewart even attempt to bake a pie from a pumpkin let alone pull it off. I slaved all day on this, it taste amazing it would win hands down at any county fair. It's got a flaky crust, a spice tasty, great color, holds it shape, creamy texture.....and all you can say is..... fine.) At this point a few of those words might have gone from just thoughts in my head to actual words that I spoke. So he might have sensed I was a little tense at the thought that this pie was just fine and not the best thing he has ever tasted. In Ott, E's defense he said he likes his pumpkin pie cold and this was still a little warm so maybe that was throwing off the taste.
So I suggested sharing a piece with my brother who was on campus at the time. We drove over to his place and on the way there I said; I bet my brother will love this pie and he will probably think it tastes a lot better than just..... fine. Sure enough I hand him a slice and he raves about the pie. He thinks it taste even better because it's warm. He went on and on and on about how good this pie was and the whole time I just smiled.
When we got back in the car and drove back to Ott, E's place I said, "See he liked the pie."
Ott, E said; "I never said the pie was bad."
"No." I said. "You said it was "just fine"."

Hello all ...
Sorry for the long post, but I need to explain ...
Been using BRU for quite some time on my computer. Love it for my music and books.
I recently put my files on an external drive on my home network for access by my wife on her computer.
I am now having trouble using BRU to rename the .mp3 files on that drive.
I've been looking in the forum and I am not finding a definitive answer. I thought I saw somewhere that I couldn't access network drives.
Then I think I saw something about adding a network location pointing to the networked external drive in Windows Explorer and then it will show up when you open BRU.
I did that, and I could swear that I did some renaming on the network drive, as I remember whooping, yes, it works!
But that was last week, and I sometimes can't remember past a few days ago. Getting old is the pits!
Last week I had to rebuild my computer due to a browser hijacker.
Now, after rebuilding, I can't get BRU to work on my network drive.
The file tree shows all the folders on the network drive (based on the Network Connection done in WinExplorer), but I cannot get the .mp3 files to show up.
I have the same set of files on my C:Drive and BRU works just fine there.
It's like there is a filter that is set or needs to be set or taken off? I currently have an '*' in the Selection box (12). I have tried *.mp3, *.flac, etc.
I know there is a lot of stuff that can be entered on the main BRU window, but as I understand it, you only need to enter what you want to change. So, based on previous experience, I have not entered anything, and my files show up. Then I can rename, counter, etc.
So, any thoughts? Can renaming on a network drive be done or not? I don't want to spend any more time on it if it can't be done.
If there is a post(s) in the forum that discusses this, could someone please point me to it.
Thanks in advance ...

Hofstra professor presents "Talking Baseball: Engineering, Math, Science and the ERA" Thursday, May 5th 7:30-9pm at the Helene Fortunoff Theater, Monroe Lecture Center, South Campus
Hofstra University Hempstead, NY – Hofstra University's IDEAS institute wraps up its 2010-2011 Science Evenings with IDEAS series with the interesting connection between baseball and science. Dr. Richard Puerzer, associate professor of Engineering delves into the history of baseball and its roots in science and engineering.From the time of "scientific baseball" in the early 1900's to the application of "moneyball" today, baseball has been closely linked to applications in engineering, science, and math. Such diverse fields as statistical analysis and optimization, ergonomics, material science, as well as organizational behavior and management theory all apply to baseball. This presentation explores several of these applications from both historical and contemporary points of view.
"Baseball is widely known as America's pastime, but not many people see it as a scientific entity," said Eloise Gmur, director of the IDEAS institute. "Listening to Dr. Puerzer discuss the scientific element of the sport may change how you watch and think about baseball."
Dr. Richard Puerzer is an Associate Professor of Engineering and the Chairperson of the Engineering Department at Hofstra University, where he has taught since 1996. He has researched, presented, and written on a broad array of baseball topics and his work has been published in the journals: Nine, The National Pastime, The Proceedings of the Cooperstown Symposium on Baseball and American Culture, Spitball, and Fan. He presented the spring 2003 Hofstra University Distinguished Faculty Lecture on Engineering and Baseball and he is on the editorial board for the journal Nine: The Journal of Baseball and Culture. He has also published work in the fields of engineering education and radio frequency identification technology applications. He is a member of the Society for American Baseball Research.
IDEAS Institute of the School of Education, Health and Human Services – Creating Public Visibility for Advances in Science and Technology

In his first television interview since it was revealed that his girlfriend never existed, Notre Dame football star and Heisman trophy runner-up Manti Te'o talks to Katie Couric about the controversy that has everyone talking.
Katie sat down with Te'o and his parents, Brian and Ottilia Te'o, who are speaking out for the first time in this "Katie" exclusive.
Katie's special interview with Te'o airs Thursday at 4 p.m. on WSBT-TV. WSBT's Jennifer Copeland has a one-on-one interview with Katie Couric today, which will air tonight at 5 and 6 on Channel 22.
KC: I understand you would fall asleep holding the phone. Or with the phone next to you connected to this individual and then when you woke up, you would talk to this person.
I hope you have rollover minutes by the way.
MT: Mobile to mobile. Mobile to mobile.
KC: But I mean, why would you do that?
MT: It goes back to what my parents taught me. To always be there for somebody when they need help.
KC: She came out of her coma when she was on the phone with you, or when the phone was next to her.
What did you hear on the other end of the line?
MT: well obviously it was just breathing at first, and it was just one of those where she was just breathing and then she started to whisper my name. I jumped for joy. I was like, 'she is out! She is talking!' I kind of, I was a little confident and I was like, 'see they were right, I do help her.

Hurlburt Field's 1st Special Operations Wing announced the loss of four airmen on Feb. 20. The men were killed on Feb. 18 when their U-28A was involved in an accident near Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti, located in the Horn of Africa.
Capt. Ryan P. Hall from the 319th Special Operations Squadron, Capt Nicholas S. Whitlock and 1st Lt Justin J. Wilkens from the 34th Special Operations Squadron and Senior Airman Julian S. Scholten from the 25th Intelligence Squadron died while on board the aircraft, which was flying in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Speaking at a press conference on Feb. 20, Colonel Jim Slife, commander of the 1 Special Operations Wing, spoke about the men, their mission, and what the loss means to the local community.
"Of course our whole community is grief stricken by this. One of the things that's unique about this special operations command and our flying units is we have composite wings," said Slife. Composite wings are made up of many different types of aircrafts with individual missions.
"All of those things knit together very closely on a day to day basis," said Slife. "These units all have a very close relationship both downrange but also here at Hurlburt. They train together locally, so unlike many places where the units tend to be fairly isolated, the units here tend to be very knitted together."
"What you find," Slife continued, "is the human stories here. Some of these folks had roommates that were in another squadron and what we have found is that there are connections all across the wing and we're all grieving together for these four men."

About Indiana Members Credit Union
Indiana Members Credit Union... Keeping It Simple
Where did we come from?In 1956, a group of employees at the Indiana University Medical Center, saw a need to make low-cost credit available to the employees through a national cooperative system. They believed a credit union would be an excellent solution.
What are we?As a credit union, Indiana Members is a not-for-profit financial institution owned and operated by its members. You have a voice and a vote as a credit union member. Credit union profits are returned to our members in the form of better rates and services. In comparison, a bank's profits are paid out to their stockholders.
What does "Keeping It Simple" mean?Everyone has to do it, and everyone has lots of other things they would rather be doing instead of banking. For this reason, Indiana Members Credit Union is committed to keeping it simple for you. Consequently, we have chosen "Keeping It Simple" as part of our credit union logo. We know that you want your banking to be simple and convenient, and you want to be treated special at a place that is comfortable and secure. Great products and services just aren't enough to entice you to change financial institutions. However, excellent service and keeping your financial tasks simple are, our promise to you, as a member of Indiana Members Credit Union, is to keep your banking simple.

MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF CTCs
1:50 Chairperson's Opening Remarks
2:00 Advancing Personalized Medicine: Next-Generation Sequencing on Circulating Tumor Cells
Jeffrey S. Ross, M.D., Medical Director, Foundation Medicine; Cyrus Strong Merrill Professor and Chair, Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Albany Medical College
In patients with metastatic cancer, biopsy to identify genomic alterations that predict sensitivity to targeted therapeutics is not always possible. In such patients, CTCs represent a potential source of material for genomic profiling, but assaying large numbers of cancer-related genes in CTCs is challenging. We have optimized our comprehensive genomic profiling assay to robustly profile CTCs to identify actionable genomic alterations and guide therapy.
2:30 Genome-Wide Analysis of CTCs from Breast and Prostate Cancer
James Hicks, Ph.D., Research Professor, Genetics, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
Single nucleus sequencing (SNS) enables genomic profiling of individual cancer cells, providing information on tumor initiation, evolution and genetic heterogeneity. The method also permits the analysis of rare cancer cells isolated from the bloodstream and other fluids. We will describe progress in using 'fluid biopsies' to monitor cancer treatment and direct therapy in prostate and other cancers.
3:00 Profiling Melanoma CTCs to Therapeutically Target Those Forming Metastases
Gavin P. Robertson, Ph.D., Professor, Pharmacology, Pathology, Dermatology and Surgery, Penn State University; Director, Penn State Melanoma Center, Penn State Melanoma Therapeutics Program, and Foreman Foundation Melanoma Research Laboratory
Molecular profiling of CTCs can be accomplished, but identifying those genes functionally relevant to CTC behavior is a challenge. This talk describes the isolation of melanoma CTC followed by expression profiling to identify key targets regulating metastatic behavior. Finally, the role of a protein in the metastatic process is demonstrated through use of novel animal and cell culture-based systems.
3:30 Molecular Profiling of Circulating Tumor Cells for Oncology Diagnostics Using the IsoFlux System
Cristian Ionescu-Zanetti, Ph.D., CTO, Fluxion Biosciences
Clinical and analytical data for the IsoFlux CTC isolation platform demonstrates a high sensitivity to surface antigens. Over 80% of patient samples are CTC positive (n>4 cells, defined as CK+, CD45-, nucleated) across a number of indications. Molecular profiling of CTCsis now possible for a majority of patients, and we present pilot qPCR data comparing KRASmt status to the primary tumor.
3:45 Sponsored Presentation (Opportunity Available)
4:00 Refreshment Break in the Exhibit Hall with Poster Viewing
4:30 Molecular Characterization of CTCs: A Road to Improved Understanding of Metastatic Process
Denis Smirnov, Ph.D., Associate Scientific Director, Oncology Biomarkers, Janssen Pharmaceuticals
Molecular characterization of circulating tumor cells offers an opportunity to elucidate metastatic process. That opportunity is often limited by technical challenges associated with analysis of rare cells. Insights gained by CellSearch research team will be shared during this presentation.
5:00 Molecular Characterization Including DNA and RNA FISH of CTCs and Cancer Associated Cells
Jeffrey Chalmers, Ph.D., Professor, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Ohio State University
Using a negative enrichment methodology, which removes RBCs and high expressing CD45 cells, we have demonstrated a significant heterogeneity in the type of cells present in blood of cancer patients. In addition to antibodies bound to flouroprobes, we are also using DNA FISH and RNA FISH technology to demonstrate this heterogeneity. We will summarize some of these findings from squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, breast cancer and colorectal cancer.
5:30 The Identification and Characterization of Breast Cancer CTCs Competent for Brain Metastasis
Dario Marchetti, Ph.D., Professor, Pathology & Immunology and Molecular & Cellular Biology; Director, CTC Core Facility, Baylor College of Medicine
Mechanisms implicating circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in fatal breast cancer brain metastasis remain elusive. We characterized CTCs isolated from blood mononuclear cells of breast cancer patients, and developed CTC lines. EpCAM-negative CTCs express markers needed to promote brain metastasis. First-time evidence characterizing breast cancer CTCs, leading to the description of a protein signature suggestive of metastatic competency to the brain will be presented.

New brewery wins rural business award
1:10pm Monday 7th October 2013 in News
A NEW brewery near Winchester has won a conservation charity's Hampshire Countryside Awards.
The annual event organised by the Campaign to Protect Rural England (Hampshire) is a showcase for rural projects.
Upham Brewery Expansion Project won the rural enterprise category. Shortlisted was Chestnut Horse public house at Easton.
Simon Blandford, partner at sponsors SmithsGore, Winchester office, said: "The finalists showcase the strength and diversity of rural businesses in the Winchester area. Both candidates have demonstrated confidence in their ability to influence the local rural economy by creating employment opportunities and support for other producers in the area."
Mr Blandford added: "Confidence is critical for businesses and is often an early indicator of profitability. We are delighted that the businesses in our region are driving investment and production and the rural economy and local people are benefiting as a result."
The Lord-Lieutenant, Dame Mary Fagan, presented the awards on behalf of the CPRE. Dame Mary praised all of the finalists and encouraged those present to support the charity.
Andover Trees United won the youth category, whilst Jodrell Close Wildlife Garden, Horndean, took the voluntary and community category.
The annual awards, which are run by CPRE Hampshire with Hampshire Fare and Hampshire Ambassadors, have been celebrating the county's diverse, living countryside since 2007.
The principal supporters of the awards are Steve's Leaves, farmers who work in an environmentally friendly way with ten per cent of the land dedicated to nature and the creation of wildlife habitats.

This live event has finished
- Today is A Level results day.
- Our team will be out and about around Dorset bringing you all the latest news and meeting students celebrating their results today.
- We want to hear from you- send us your pictures of you celebrating to email@example.com or tweet using the hashtag #dorsetresults.
As a mark of respect to the family of Kieron Clewett the A Level picture special scheduled for tomorrow's paper will now appear on Saturday.
That's all from us here today. A big congratulations to everyone who got their results today.
Check out the link below for our photo gallery.
THE poor weather couldn't rain on their parade, as jubilant students received their A and AS level results at Woodroffe School in Lyme Regis.
The school once again performed well with an overall pass rate of 97 per cent, with 42 percent of students gaining an A*, A or B.
Headteacher Dr Steward said: "As ever, this is a very impressive set of results and I am delighted that so many of our students have done so well. I am particularly pleased that the vast majority have secured places at the universities of their choice and I wish them every success in the future.
"A-level students work incredibly hard nowadays and, though it is fashionable to assume that standards have declined, the amount of work sixth formers now have to do has made gaining qualifications at this level in many ways much harder that it used to be.
"The hard work of A-levels students should not be underestimated, nor should we forget the added pressures caused by the demands of the university system and the increasing competition for places.
Head of sixth form Jim Thomas added: "Overall I am very pleased with this set of excellent results. It reflects the hard work these students have put in over the past couple of years. Students have a lot of pressure on them to do well so I am delighted for them all."
Sixth form students headed to the school at 10am today to collect their results after two years of hard work.
Head Girl Scarlett Down achieved some excellent results, getting three A*'s in art, history of art and English, plus an A in geography.
Scarlett is taking a year out from her studies to do some voluntary work in Ecuador for 12 months before going to Durham University to study social sciences.
She said: "I was not expecting these results at all. It was very stressful and I got so stressed out during the exam period, but I am so happy and it was worth it all in the end."
Jacob Crofton, 18, attained an A* in mathematics and two A's in physics and chemistry and will be heading to the University of Bristol to study mathematics.
He said: "I was hoping to get these results as I needed these to go to my first choice university. I'm very pleased I got these results, as a lot of hard work has gone into them."
Another high performer was Kristian Beckers, 18 from Wootton Fitzpaine, gained an A* in mathematics, A's in further maths and physics and a B in chemsitry. He will be going to the University of Bristol to study Chemical Physics.
Kristian said: "I am very pleased. I did better than I expected, and I'm pleased the hard work paid off."
Emily Voysey, 18 couldn't quite believe her results of an A* mathematics, A in further maths and B in chemistry, and she go to the University of Leeds to study maths.
She said: "I have done better than I needed to, and better than I thought, I can't believe it. Now I am really looking forward to going to university."
Emily was also accompanied by sister Tessa, 17, who still has another year left at Woodroffe, and Mother Su Cotton, who was understandably ecstatic.
Su said: "I am very proud of both my girls. I am very pleased for them, and I am also very excited for Emily to be heading off to university."
Dom Kirtley, 18, from Lyme Regis, said he was incredibly excited to go to Goldsmith College , part of University of London, to study popular music after getting an A* in music technology and two B's in Spanish and music.
Izzy Peters, Molly Savage and Hannah Gaid also picked up their results. Hannah said: "It still hasn't sunk in yet, but we're all pleased with our results."

— @Dorsetecho 15 August 2013
More than one in five of the top A-level grades awarded today went to youngsters living in the South East.
The results show that 22% of A* grades went to pupils in the region.
As the area accounts for 19% of A-level entries, it means that pupils are picking up more than their share of the top marks.
London is also over-represented, with 16% of entries and 18% of the highest grades, while the Eastern region has 12% of entries and 13% of A*s, according to data published by the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ).
The South West was responsible for 10% of A-level A*s and 10% of entries.
At the other end of the scale, Yorkshire and Humber had 9% of entries and 8% of A*s, the North West made up 13% of entries and 11% of A* grades, and the North East accounted for 4% of entries and 3% of A*s.
East Midlands candidates made up 8% of entries and 7% of the A*s, while in the West Midlands 9% of A* grades were awarded against 10% of overall entries.
Girls from Leweston School, Sherborne, Dorset celebrate unprecedented A*and A grades.
All girls got into their first choice university, which the school called a 'wonderful achievement.'
Student Esmée Kate Roach won the school's cup for drama donated by Kristen Scott Thomas, a former pupil, who went on to the Central School of Speech and Drama in London.
Esmée received an A* for Drama and 3 other A's at A level and has also secured a place at the CSSD.
Budmouth A Level results
Alistair Sterling, 18, received 3 A* grades in Chemistry, Maths and Biology and will be studying Law at St Annes College, Oxford University.
He said: "I had no idea how well I did in my exams and I worked hard for them but didn't expect this.
"All my hard work has paid off; I am so excited and my parents are delighted."
Frankie Pearce, 18, is off to University of East Anglia to study Architecture after getting two A* grades in Art and Graphics and a B in Maths. She said: "I thought I was going to fail my exams and was so nervous but today I am over the moon."
Luke Puckett, 18, said: "This year I have been accepted for an apprenticeship on Portland to gain a Logistics NVQ qualification.

English teacher Rose Bryant, said: "Matt has worked so hard this year and he deserves this, he's been fabulous and as his teacher I am so proud of his achievements."
Students at Shaftesbury School have been celebrating getting their A Level and BTEC results.
Headline results show a 100 per cent pass rate for students taught at Shaftesbury School, with 39 per cent of results at A*-B grades.
Every result is valued but there were particular successes for seven students who gained 2 or more of the highest grades - Jessica Cox-Martin, Rachel Dunn, Charlotte Hill, Rebecca Jones, Georgina Rayment, Amy Mutton and Joe Wahab.
They are all now off to uni.
The school said across the board students have done really well with their qualifications.
The school has a boarding house and students who board have again performed exceptionally well.
Headteacher, Mark Blackman said, "It is fantastic to see the hard work and dedication of the staff and students pay off this summer.
"Every single result marks and individual success of which we are extremely proud. A level and BTEC examinations are truly demanding qualifications and it is great to see the students in the school being as successful as those in independent and selective schools."
He added: "I would like to thank every member of staff who helped prepare the students for their exams and the parents who work so well in partnership with us. My hearty congratulations go to each and every student.
"I wish them all well for their next steps and it is wonderful to see so many heading off to university or directly into employment. In these harsh times for young people we are delighted that we know our students are being successful and progressing to their chosen destinations."

So any older readers out there, lets give some reassurance - did you do well at A Level? Did it matter? What career are you now in?

Sherborne School for Girls are celebrating after 53 per cent of exam papers were graded A* or A.
Of all papers, 91 per cent were graded at A* - C.
Also almost 25 per cent of examinations passed at A*, compared to the national average of 7.6 per cent. While 81% of papers achieved A*, A or B grades compared to the national average of 52.9 per cent.
The results are the best results for the school to date.
Students also did well in the AS Levels and the International Baccalaureate.
Headmistress Jenny Dwyer said she was delighted: "These results are excellent news for our girls and truly reflect their commitment and application to their academic studies. Equally impressive is that so many of our girls have experienced similar success with their extra-curricular activities this year, across music, sport, drama and other interests."
She added: "Our congratulations go to everyone and we wish our leavers every success in the future. Thanks also must go to parents and families who have supported the girls through their studies, and to the wonderful dedication of our staff in ensuring the girls achieve their full potential."
Congratulations to Camilla Llewellyn from Thomas Hardye School for getting A*, A, A, A in her A Levels. She will be going to uni in September
Are you unclear about Clearing?
The system operates between mid-July and September and matches University applicants with vacancies on higher education course.
Here are some tips:
NUS Top Tips for you for Clearing:
1. Do your research
Course vacancies in Clearing are published on www.ucas.com from mid-August until late-September. Do some research now into other courses or institutions that you may like to study at. This means that you know your preferred options and you are prepared. For more detailed information about individual courses including for example course satisfaction data you could use sites such as Unistats.
2. Be aware
Vacancies listed on Clearing tend to fill up quickly, so a fast response will increase your chances of being accepted on the course you want. Make sure you have all the paperwork you'll need to hand.
3. Be realistic and flexible
Check the requirements and if you don't have the grades you need for your chosen subject, consider an alternative course and institution. If you have a specific career in mind, vocational qualifications such as foundation degrees are becoming increasingly popular.
4. Think carefully before accepting
Think carefully before you accept an offer, as you can only accept one. Make sure it really is the right choice for you. You can also research institutions on their websites or contact them directly with any questions about requirements for the course.
5. Make sure you have financial support
Make sure you have all the financial support you are eligible for. For more information on this, see our student finance section.
Course vacancies in Clearing are published on www.ucas.com from mid-August until late-September.
Shadow education secretary Stephen Twigg said it is important that the exams system is ''rigorous and challenging'' and that young people's achievements are ''properly reflected in the grade they are awarded''.
''The continued rise in maths and science entries that Labour began is welcome,'' he said. ''However, the fall in the number of students taking languages is extremely worrying.''

The results show there were huge gender differences in pupils' choices in subject. For instance, girls accounted for more than seven in 10 entries for English exams and four in every five physics exam entries were for boys.
While officials said the gender gap has been present for some time, it has ''extenuated'' this year.
Mark Dawe, of the OCR exam board, said: ''Students are becoming more and more savvy about choices they need to make at A-level for the career they want.
''We are seeing gender choices are often influenced by the degree they want to do and job they want to do.''
Brian Lightman, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, said he was ''worried'' about the huge variance in subjects chosen by girls and boys.
''We need, as teachers, to try and raise awareness of these stereotypical views that occur,'' he said.
''But it's a societal thing as well; in wider society we need to try and break those stereotypical models. We need to show role models of people who are doing different things.''
The proportion of A-levels awarded at least an A grade has fallen for the second year in a row, official figures showed today.
In total, 26.3% of entries scored an A or A* this year, down from 26.6% in 2012 - a drop of 0.3%. It is believed to be the second biggest fall in the history of A-levels.
The A*-A pass rate fell for the first time in more than 20 years last year.
The latest drop comes amid rising numbers of teenagers taking A-levels in science and maths.
It had previously been suggested by some that an increased focus on traditional subjects, such as maths and science, could fuel a slight drop, as youngsters who may not have considered taking these subjects in the past, and may not be as strong in them, are now opting for the courses to help their chances of securing a university place.
In total, biology, chemistry and physics accounted for 17.8% of all entries - up from 17% last year and 15% in 2009, according to figures published by the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ).
And one in eight (12%) of entries were for maths or further maths, up from 11.5% last year and 9.8% five years ago.
There were almost 24,000 more entries for the sciences this year compared with 2009, JCQ said, and nearly 19,000 more for maths courses.
The new statistics also show that the number of entries awarded an A* - the very top grade - also dipped this year, with 7.6% of exams scoring the mark, compared with 7.9% last year.
The overall A*-E pass rate has risen slightly by 0.1%. Some 98.1% of exams achieved at least an E, compared with 98% last year.
More than 300,000 students in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are receiving their A-level results this morning.

If you are disappointed with your results then learning to accept it could help you move on to bigger and better things, according to an academic.
Dr Matthew Smith, a senior lecturer in psychology at Buckinghamshire New University, said the best way for students to cope is to accept their results and start looking for other opportunities.
Exploring other options helps people to ''move on'' from their failure, he suggested.
Dr Smith said: ''The best way to cope with disappointment is acceptance. Look to get it out of your system as soon as possible and look on the bright side. One of the first and most important steps is acceptance and accepting that you have not achieved what you wanted to achieve.
''This is not easy and can be quite challenging and it comes as a shock to people that they have not achieved what they wanted and immediately wish things had gone better. Here, acceptance must come in as quickly as possible.''
Students should try to turn the situation to their advantage and look for other courses based on the results they have, he said.
He added: ''Exploring other options and opening up other opportunities will help you move on. "Also, keep perspective. This is not the be-all and end-all and what has happened doesn't mean that your life is over. In a way it presents an exciting new amount of challenges and opportunities."
Need someone to talk over your A Level results with? Interested in Clearing?
UCAS advisers are available to answer questions all day on 0871 468 0 468. Students can also speak to professional careers advisers through the Exam Results Helpline on 0808 100 8000.
Apprenticeships could offer an alternative route to career success for Dorset school leavers, one business partnership has said.
Following today's A Level results the Financial and Legal Skills Partnership is encouraging school leavers to take a look at the possibility of apprenticeships and other vocational courses as well as traditional University routes.
CEO Liz Field said: "School leavers concerned about their futures need to be reassured they can find ways into work beside traditional university routes. Higher apprenticeships, in particular, can open many doors to a rewarding and fulfilling career."
Apprenticeships span all disciplines from accounting, payroll, book-keeping and professional services to providing financial services, financial advice and mortgage advice.
Liz Field concludes, "School leavers in Dorset can discover there are viable, exciting alternative learning paths other than university. Those paths combine the practical benefits of vocational learning, with the opportunity to start on the path of a fulfilling career."
A record number of students have already been accepted on to university courses, official figures show.
As of midnight, 385,910 applicants had been accepted by UK universities and colleges - 31,600 more than at the same point last year, a rise of 9%.
The admissions service Ucase said it is the highest number of acceptances ever recorded.
The figures come as students across England, Wales and Northern Ireland learn their A-level results.
Picking up A Level results today? Remember to tweet us @Dorsetecho - email email@example.com & let us know how you do #dorsetresults
— @DorsetEchoTara 15 August 2013
Figures show that around 345,300 applicants have been accepted to their first choice of university.
A further 98,740 applicants are awaiting results or decisions, while 145,730 are eligible for clearing - the process that matches students without places to courses with vacancies.
Ucas chief executive Mary Curnock Cook said: ''The gateway to higher education swings open for many people today based on these results - congratulations to all of them.
''Demand for higher education has recovered after a dip last year and universities are keen to accept qualified applicants.
''For some, that means going through clearing where there are plenty of high quality vacancies. The Ucas website has all the information you need.''
Students waiting to learn about university places can check whether they have been accepted by logging on to the Track service on the Ucas website.

BOZEMAN - A local church, looking to expand, has hit a snag.
With a rising number of congregants, the Springhill Church has been forced to hold services at its old location on Springhill Road and at the Emerson Cultural Center. So, they're hoping to build a new facility.
The church purchased a 21-acre tract of land west of Bozeman near the new Petra Academy. However, before they can begin construction, they have to get approval from the planning department.
"They're asking us to build a road. One road dead-ends into a mitigated wetlands, which we don't want to do, and they're asking us to build another road that connects to that one," says Pastor B. J. Otey.
Otey estimates the cost of the road at between $200,000 to $400,000. He says that kind of money could break the bank.
We tried contacting the planning department but they would not comment on the project.
Pastor Otey and church members will be at the city commission meeting Monday, requesting that the commission annual the road request.

Does Dick Durbin still think our soldiers are Hitlerites and Nazis? Has he ruled that out?
Well said #1.
The dims are notorious for selectively choosing the parts of the Constitution they will abide by and which ones they will ignore. They also are great at twisting it into saying what they want. They are distortionists!
Ain´t no LAW says pres can borrow $
Mark Levin did a rant on this tonight.(What a treasure!)
Idiocy, sheer idiocy! The Amendment allows for recognition of the public debt, but the public debt cannot exceed what is authorized by Congress. The Constitution does not now, or ever, hand the government an unlimited credit card.
This means that Dear Reader is going to do it and our brave Republicans in the House and Senate will sit there with their thumbs in their posteriers and let him, just like they did with the dream act executive order.
I don´t see much comfort for Democrats in that clause of the 14th.But the SC sometimes finds amazing meanings in words and Obama begins with four justices. He only has to find a fifth who thinks the phrase might apply.And a conservative will retire or die sometime. Then Obama will own the court.
I´m hankerin´ for a good olde fashioned impeachment.
Nonsense. They apparently can´t read. The phrase, "authorized by law," effectively rules out any unilateral action by the President because only Congress can create laws. This is all bluster and intimidation.
Poor chubby little Dickie - when was he ever right about anything?

Grab a Button!
Product 341/486
The hit and run driver that nearly killed her sister changed Mina's life forever. Editing the trendy Philly Chic magazine did not prepare Mina for a life of crazy-eyed assailants trying to kill her and her niece. The handsome Samaritan whose unusual techniques prevented her sister from bleeding to death on the street introduced her to a world, hidden from most, where only her quick wits and instincts could keep her alive.
Would this mysterious Samaritan prove to be part of the solution or the ultimate root of her problems?
The car came out of nowhere—burning rubber as it accelerated down the street. It hit Ally in the side, knocking her legs out from under her and flipping her end over end. Mina turned in terror, instinctively pulling Rachael against her, trying futilely to keep the little girl from witnessing what was happening. Ally's purse and packages flew in all directions. Her head smashed into the car's window, causing a spider web of fractures to spread out across the glass. Her body kept flipping, wind milling across the top of the vehicle to smack hard against the pavement with a sickening thud.
For a terrible moment, the world seemed to freeze around Mina. Ally lay on the ground broken and bleeding. Rachael stood beside her screaming almost as loudly as Mina was screaming herself. The car skidded to a halt, burning more rubber in its haste. The driver leapt out in slow motion and started back toward Ally. He had a low brow and dark Hispanic features. He took three steps toward Ally and froze. His eyes widened so that the whites of the orbs became exceedingly prominent. Then he sniffed a couple of times like he was fighting a runny nose, looked quickly from left to right, and hurried back to his car. He nearly hit three more people in his haste to escape down the road.
"Oh man d'ya see that Money? Daaammn!" Shouted a young white hip-hop wanna-be, to one of his more authentic black friends.
"Shut up and call 911 Joey," his friend said, "that lady's hurt bad, and I mean real bad!"
Mina stared after the car—her mind still in shock and not quite functioning. She could hear a stranger reciting the license plate over and over again. Rachael kept screaming about her mother and Mr. Bear. Laura ran up to them and threw her arms about Mina and Rachael. It all felt so surreal. Ally lay on the ground bleeding to death and Laura was comforting Mina.
A remarkably handsome man appeared out of the crowd and knelt down beside Mina's sister. He had jet black hair and beautiful pale cheekbones. A trench coat covered his lithe body and he moved beneath it with the grace of an African gazelle. Without hesitation, he pressed a white silk handkerchief against a ghastly wound in Ally's groin and frowned as his hand slipped easily inside the flesh.
"I am going to need some assistance!" he announced. His voice rang out loud and clear across the street, penetrating the noise of the crowd and riveting the attention of those closest to him. "This woman's pelvis is broken and a bone shard has nicked and possibly severed her femoral artery. We have very little time before she bleeds to death. Does anyone have one of those little yellow emergency kits in the trunk of their car?"
No one moved.
The man did not appear to realize this. All of his attention, even when he had spoken to them, had been focused on the ragged hole in Ally's groin and his efforts to clamp off the bleeding. Mina looked around and spotted a cabbie standing half in and half out of his taxi as he tried to figure out what was going on.
She left Rachael with Laura and ran the fifteen or so feet to the cab driver, grabbing him by the front of his jacket. "Your first aid kit!" she shouted. "Is it in your trunk?"
The driver looked at her—painful confusion evident in his gaze. "It's not yellow," he told her in a heavy West African accent, as if that made absolutely any difference.
"Move aside!" Mina ordered as she pulled him the rest of the way out of his car. She stepped into the space he had vacated and found the little levers on the floor that opened the gas tank and the trunk. She popped both to be certain she got the right one and ran to the back of the car to find a white plastic case with a red cross emblazoned upon it. Snatching up the kit, she ran back to the man trying to save her sister.
Ally's wound was far worse than she had imagined. The man's right hand had half disappeared inside her groin and he was using his left to try and add even more pressure. Blood drenched his white shirt sleeves where they peaked out from beneath his coat. She didn't know how a person could have that much blood escape them and still be counted among the living.
"Open it!" the man instructed. His words were crisp and precise and Mina did as he said, immediately reaching for the gauze bandage.
"Not that!" he corrected her. "I need the roadside flare."
"The what?"
"Hurry! This woman is dying!"
Puzzled, Mina followed his instructions, taking the red stick out of the plastic case. It was roughly six inches long and as thick around as a broom-handle.
"Take off the cap and light it!" the man ordered.
Mina fumbled with the cap, her fingers responding clumsily to her mental instructions. When it finally popped free it went spinning out of her hand and down the street. She looked at the flare helplessly, wondering how to make it flame.
"Strike it on the ground!" the man ordered.
Mina did as she was told, instantly bringing the flame to life.
"Now reach into my coat. There is a knife sheathed in the lining about the height where my thigh would be."
More confused than ever, Mina reached inside the man's coat. The motion was awkward because he couldn't open his arms to make room for her. His hands remained pressed against her sister's gaping wound.
The coat was very expensive with a smooth silk lining that would have been a pleasure to explore under other circumstances. It also had what must be a custom made sheath sewn into the fabric. Following the contours of the sheath with her hand, Mina found the handle of a knife and carefully pulled it free. The fourteen inch blade gleamed in the sunlight.
"Put the tip of the blade in the flame of the flare!" the man told her.
"We have to cauterize this wound," the man explained. "And we don't have a lot of time."
