Students at a small Southwest Michigan high school are learning about big business.
They're members of Bridgman High School's DECA, an organization for students interested in marketing.
They just won a grant for a $1,000 as part of Martin's Supermarket's One School at a Time program.
Several of these kids are competing for a chance to go to the international level.
These sharp dressed students at Bridgman High School have a plan, more like a business plan.
"I really enjoy marketing," says Bridgman High School Senior Kevin Ramso.
Senior Kevin Ramso is a member of DECA, an association of marketing students that prepares students for the real business world with competitions.
"We get to shake a lot of hands, do a lot of networking at DECA events," Explains Ramso.
That's because the judges are real professionals, often company execs who know the ropes.
"They know that experience is the best teachers so they can tell you what ideas are good, what ideas need a little adaption, they know what the environment is like especially in our area in Michiana," explains Ramso.
"We have 19 going to state," says DECA Advisor Christine Davis.
Advisor Christine Davis is proud of her students; she knows they're headed for great opportunities.
"I have students all across the country that I still keep in touch with that are in business, marketing, advertising, and doing really well," Davis says. "I have students in New York, California, Chicago and they had a jump start when they went in."
These kids are getting a jump start with the one school at a time grant.
"The money will go primarily to their competition," Davis explains. "The competitions are expensive, but they're well worth it."
"Oh we were thrilled, we spent so much money and time going thru pop bottle drives, going thru all this stuff, just to have this it's so helpful," says Bridgman High School Junior Colleen Ferguson.
Through DECA, Colleen Ferguson has learned helpful strategies for companies.
"You realize a small company they don't have a lot of money to spend," says Ferguson. "And you have to do with it what you can. You have to look more toward social media, than going on a newspaper let's just say. It's just as effective too since so many people are on it nowadays."
A lesson learned by future business executives.
"It gives you the real world experience that the classroom can't totally give you," Ferguson explains.
The students will travel to Grand Rapids on March 15 to present their plans at the state level. That's when they find out if they'll advance to the next level. We wish them the best!
You can nominate your school for a One School at a Time grant.
The winning school gets $1,000 from Martin's Supermarket, and a new winner is picked each month.
Schools only need to apply once, and you can do so by going to michianaschools.com.

Austin Mahone Fails His Driver's Test Twice in the Same Day … But the Third Time's a Charm!

A potential missing piece to soybean pest control–effective soybean cyst nematode (SCN) protection–will be available to Midwestern growers in 2014. Syngenta has introduced Clariva Complete Beans nematicide/insecticide/fungicide, an on-seed application of separately registered products that adds a nematicide to the seed treatment of CruiserMaxx Beans with Vibrance insecticide/fungicide. This soybean seed treatment combination protects against early-season insects and diseases, and offers season-long activity against SCN.
Clariva Complete Beans includes the ingredient Pasteuria nishizawae (P. nishizawae), which provides a direct mode of action on soybean cyst nematode. P. nishizawae is active from day one and reduces soybean cyst nematode feeding and reproduction, ultimately killing the pest. P. nishizawae remains in the root zone throughout the season to offer activity against soybean cyst nematode. The product will complement the use of soybean cyst nematode-resistant varieties and crop rotation, and help manage resistance.

A successful harvest starts with optimal planting. An optimal planting date and weather during the growing season are two major factors affecting a crop's yield potential. Moisture also affects actual yield harvesting.
With advances in dryer technology, the process has become more economical and easier. Today, the cost of drying is much less than the cost of field loss. The Propane Education and Research Council has launched the Propane Farm Incentive Program available to Grain Systems Inc. customers who purchase the new X-Stream model dryer.
Farmers enrolled in the program receive $5,000 for tracking drying costs on the GSI dryer for one season and sharing the data with PERC. GSI is a brand of AGCO, a designer, manufacturer and ditributor of agricultural machinery.

I follow her story only in part,
like a man looking from a lit room at dark
hills, silhouetted against navy skies
his own staring face superimposed by
a ghostly glare from the light of the room.

and in an overflow of English says:
You father, doctor, dead. You brother, dead.
You mother, konjo, konjobeautifuldead.
You, Why? Why? Why? She turns and drops her head.

The pilot reported that, during an introductory flight, he was conducting a 2-foot hover in the helicopter. An airplane started to taxi in front of the helicopter, so the pilot set the helicopter back down on the ground, left skid first and then the right. The helicopter drifted right as the skid made contact, and the pilot added left cyclic input to remedy the drift as he also lowered the collective. As the skids started to settle apart, the pilot noticed a low frequency vibration that immediately got worse. He determined that the helicopter was entering ground resonance, but the engine and collective parameters were too low to lift the helicopter off of the ground, as indicated in the helicopter's operating procedures. The pilot reduced the throttle to idle and "within seconds, the helicopter had shaken itself apart." Postaccident testing revealed that all four landing gear dampers failed to meet the manufacturer's serviceable testing specifications, and two dampers were overcharged. Maintenance records indicated that the front dampers had been replaced with overhauled units about 10 months and about 534 flight hours before the accident. The aft dampers had been replaced with overhauled units about 7 months and about 280 flight hours before the accident. A review of the manufacturer's overhaul procedure for the landing gear dampers revealed that the procedure used by the overhaul facility did not include functional testing of the dampers following overhaul, which would have identified the out-of-specification condition before installation. Maintenance procedures required periodic inspection of the landing gear dampers, and the operator stated that the 100-hour inspection procedure was accomplished about 1 month before the accident. The mechanic who accomplished this inspection reported that he used the manufacturer's procedures to complete the inspection. However, the out-of-specification damper conditions were not detected. As a result of this and a similar accident (CEN12LA353), the helicopter manufacturer has committed to revising the overhaul manual to include testing procedures and criteria for overhauled landing gear dampers.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Two carvings of labyrinths in Rocky Valley, between Boscastle and Tintagel in north Cornwall, have been the subject of much discussion over the years, their origins variously ascribed to the Bronze Age, the early Christian period and even the 18th century. When earth mysteries enthusiast David Roberts visited the site recently, he took digital photographs of the two labyrinths. On returning home, he downloaded the photographs onto his computer and noticed a third carving above the two previously known rock-cut patterns.
The hitherto unnoticed labyrinth is much fainter than the other two, leading to suggestions that the two bolder images were re-cut over existing carvings in relatively modern times. An alternative suggestion is that the two known labyrinths were copied from the much older, worn carving. All three labyrinths appear to be classic 'Cretan' in style, with seven-fold paths and left-handed entrances, although the 'new' carving is indistinct and its details somewhat difficult to establish. The recently identified labyrinth, news of which was published in Cornish earth mysteries magazine Meyn Mamvro, was described by Mr Roberts as "faint but unmistakable".

Does anyone else think that this is leading to our progressive government banning sports like boxing, etc?
If consenting adults aren't allowed to exchange plastic bags in public, what chance is there that people will be allowed to punch and kick each other for recreational purposes. It doesn't matter that everybody involved in these sports is a responsible adult who has agreed to be involved, or an appropriately supervised junior.
The world is full of people who will, with the best of intentions, do everything they can to enforce their point of view on everybody else. Smug, superior, asinine buffoons who think they are the smartest people in the room , with a mantra of "Just relax and comply…I know what is best for you…"

Although the idea of cardiganed ACT bureaucrats working their way through the rules of all these martial arts is quite funny.
LOL, as someone who has both a cardigan and a black belt, I find that comment overly judgmental!
Seriously, granting the inept chief minister powers in this area is ridiculous. It's just going to lead to more and more ridiculous policies that achieve the exact opposite of what they were intended to do.
To a large extent, the private market has already stepped in and intervened to ruin 'martial arts' and turn it into a sport. Pre-HIH insurance catastrophe, it was possible to have a decent contest and people realised that, being based on martial arts, contests sometimes involved blood and broken bones. I still maintain the injuries were far less frequent or serious than rugby. Now, many of the contests are basically no-contact, and pretty pointless, like a game of tag, due mainly to insurance reasons.
It is in everybody's best interests for martial arts training AND competitions – however defined – to occur in supervised settings with people who have some idea of what they're doing, and who are required (by virtue of insurance) to have basic first aid training. No regulation will stop people getting together consensually to beat the p–s out of each other. Imposing stupid regulations (and coming from the cheif minister, they WILL be stupid) will give rise to unsupervised and unofficial training/fighting which will by definition be uninsured and more dangerous.
I would be sad to see this.

I agree 100% with this, also being someone who likes to put on a uniform and then punch \ kick people as a form of recreation and training the number injuries I have seen would be far less than the average number of injuries which happen in any other "softer" sports and there is a damn fine reasons for it.
I won't claim to know how other martial art schools teach, but at the one I go too people are always paired up against others of a similar skill level. Because people are at a similar level they know how to properly defend themselves against their opponent. Furthermore a person doing a martial art usually know (through training) how to take a blow or a fall in a way which doesn't injure themselves, for example through tensing certain muscles if a strike is going to make contact or twisting themselves around whilst falling to absorb the force of the fall.
When we spar, every person is doing so by choice. Any person could ask to leave at any time. If one side does get injured the fight stops.
Actually, the ACT government tried to ban kickboxing and other combat sports in the early 1990s. It was the Follett Labor Government, and it came just after circuses and rodeos were banned. A local entrepeneur, Greg Hinton advertised a kickboxing tournament and the minister – Terry Connolly – brought in legislation trying to ban it. Greg and the local boxing/bodybuilding community gained an injunction, the law was thrown out and the tournament went ahead.
Looks like the Labor left and their buddies in The Greens will finally be getting their revenge.

The Cardigans Lyrics
In the post-grunge, pre-electronica world of apathetic
audiences, flat sales, and No Big Thing, the pure pop of
the Cardigans has hit like a virus that circumvents all
rational defenses and goes straight for the central nervous
system. The lighter-than-air melodies and samba-inflected
dance beats, combined with the unflappable soprano of
vocalist Nina Persson, deliver the punch of some weird
amalgam of Blondie and Burt Bacharach.
In Boston, where the Swedish quintet recently played two
sold-out shows at the 600-capacity Paradise with More...
audiences, flat sales, and No Big Thing, the pure pop of
the Cardigans has hit like a virus that circumvents all
rational defenses and goes straight for the central nervous
system. The lighter-than-air melodies and samba-inflected
dance beats, combined with the unflappable soprano of

Review about The Cardigans songs
To people that think justin copied this song | Reviewer: Marguerite------ About the song Lovefool performed by The Cardigans
i'm sorry. but yes i know this sound like justin's song. i mean, justin's song sound like this. but, he didn't copied this song. for justin's song called "love me" he sing it, he didnt write that one. i dont think thats 'copying'. just giving my opinion :)
simple and sweet | Reviewer: archie------ About the song Lovefool performed by The Cardigans
the song is a very simple song,has a catchy melody that sticks to your mind that even after a long time you still know how to sing it. I heard this song 12 years ago and it still sounds great brings back a lot of memories from the past, oh and it has an 80's feel to it too
Such a wonderful song | Reviewer: J. S.------ About the song Communication performed by The Cardigans
I just heard this song today for the first time and can't stop listening to it. It really speaks from my heart. I know that feeling all to well. It's hard to get over when you're in such a situation, but it does happen.
Good luck and heads up to all who are unhappily in love!
Simple lyrics but a great song. | Reviewer: Udita Rohatgi------ About the song Lovefool performed by The Cardigans
First I heard this song in Cruel Intentions, and I just googled and found it that time, today while giving test paper at school there was a question 'Name five English dramatist' and I wrote william shakespeare in one of my answers suddenly Romeo+ Juliet came in my mind and I started singing love me love me say that you love me, but I didn't know rest of the lyrics so when I came back home I searched for it. Now I have it. Love this love this saying that I love this.
One of the best | Reviewer: Anonymous------ About the song If There Is A Chance performed by The Cardigans
Love the Cardigans and this is one of their best. Such a sad sad song about separation and the inability to let go of the hope of reconciling a lost love. Even sadder that it's probably so relevant to all of us at some point in our lives.
Found it! | Reviewer: Viri------ About the song Lovefool performed by The Cardigans
I dont even know how I got this song in my head..all I knew is "love me love me say that you love me" but I never heard the whole song didnt know the name of it n neither who sings it...so I googled those few word I had in my head until I finally found it...lol...love the song!(:
I love this song... but it breaks my heart | Reviewer: T------ About the song Communication performed by The Cardigans
I really identify with this song because I was in a similar situation once. It's very sad when you have to abandon a prospect who is otherwise wonderful because their heart is like a remote island you can't reach, no matter what you do. So even though it's hard, you cut your losses and move on to meet someone who you can truly connect with.
justin bieber | Reviewer: jennifer------ About the song Lovefool performed by The Cardigans
for telling the true when i heard justin bieber singing: love me love me
i said, omg he stole it from someone, but i couldn't remember who song that song, so i was looking for it and i found it! i don't like justin bieber, but now i know who sing this song: love me love me

The hieroglyphics are one observation, of no consequence by themselves, but due to the the structure, placement and make up of the pyramids, being placed upon aquifers whose ionic content, friction, and pressure generates a magnetic field and electro-kinetic effects, accompanied by the natural energy contained by limestone being released in aqueous solutions disassociating the the carbonic and sulfuric acid, both strong electrolytes and thus conductors of electric current generated by the energy of the chemical reaction, the vast potential energy inherently possessed by its crystalline structure, and the use of granite, another powerful electrical conductor, substantiates the claim, as they were fully capable of producing and transmitting a powerful electrical current. Whether or not they did I don't know, but science supports the possibility. Granted it would require a powerful capacitor to be placed in the king's chamber where the sarcophagus allegedly was placed, whose dimensions ironically match that of the Ark of the Covenant which would actually have been in Egypt at the time and has been proven to have potentially been a capacitor capable of storing millions of volts of static electricity provided by the friction of the clothes and radiant energy of carrying it through the dessert in the Egyptian sun. But I wasn't around back then so I guess we'll never know. Either way it sounds like an incredibly efficient and affordable source of alternate, renewable energy.

In addition to this blatantly wrong contribution of the phrase "thug life", message of THUG LIFE, despite its negative connotation, is a positive message based on correcting the societal ills birthed by the astounding levels of negligence and steadfast misunderstanding of, what is to these individuals speaking, a foreign culture. These negative stereotypes of ethnic minorities living in poverty are sensationalized when broadcast through the mass media because these false and drastically over exaggerated generalizations appeal to their viewing audience, providing them with a negative point of strong contrast, inflating their false sense of ethical superiority, and deceiving them not only into believing these people who live a "thug life" are inferior to themselves. Because it makes them feel good about themselves and they don't their children to partake in the violent, vice filled lifestyles portrayed, they immediately condemn it without even attempting to understand those they condemn-the unfortunate typical thought process for a conservative; close mindedness.
HHCF Philosophy: A Technical Flow states, "you don't simply concentrate on taking only one piece; all moves contribute to an over all plan…The first step in developing zugzwang (a situation where a person is limited to making moves that have an over all detrimental effect, whether it be positional or loss of pieces, property or gain) is really just doing one move checkmate chess puzzles that help you see the reality of the situation for what it is…Once the reality of the situation is clear, you can then observe and innovate on the potential future in the game [of chess],a jiu jitsu match or your life in general." The poison pawn chess tactic is a trap that lures your opponent into taking a pawn intentionally left out into the open in order to gain a positional advantage. By clearly understanding your situation in life you can asses the risks and benefits of making certain immediate sacrifices in order to further your progress towards fulfillment of an overall goal.

Brilliant Idea: Make a Time Budget
Your days are like your dollars -- if you don't have a plan for them, they have a way of disappearing. To take control and manage your time, audit your week to carve out space for your priorities while rooting out time-wasters.
By Christina Breda Antoniades
Manage your time
You meant to spend the morning prepping for a meeting. But first you opened email--and now it's noon. "People focus on what's in front of them and forget everything else," says David Allen, the author of Getting Things Done. "All their energy goes toward patching cracks and catching up. They never get ahead." Break that cycle by treating your time like it's money.

- I just spray painted a pool inner tube brown to represent a chocolate donut, and then applied a "glaze" of 50% Elmer's glue and 50% acrylic paint.
- As we applied the glaze, Olivia and I added colorful pieces of construction paper to represent sprinkles. We had to work fast, as the glaze dried quickly.
- The headpiece was simply a Dunkin' Donuts cup attached to a headband. I thought about hot gluing the two together, but I wanted to be able to use the headband again, so I used my favorite Command Picture Hanging Strips instead (I know I talk about the Command Strips all the time, but I am not being compensated for my endorsement. I just looove them and want to share how versatile they are with everyone).
- Finally, I looped a ribbon through the inner tube to hang it around her neck.
The popcorn box was not really difficult, but it was definitely more time consuming than the donut. If you would like to make a popcorn box costume for your child, here's how you can do it (sorry I don't have photos of the process - I wasn't blogging then).
- Gather Supplies - 5 Foam Core Boards, White Duct Tape, Red Spray Paint, Great Stuff Expanding Foam Sealant (available at Home Depot), Large Bowl of Air-Popped Popcorn, Utility Knife, White Card Stock, Red Card Stock, Elastic, Wide Painter's Tape, Glue
- Cut down four of the foam boards so that you can make a box. We used Olivia's body size to determine the size of the box we wanted. It makes sense that you would make a smaller box for a smaller child. In Olivia's case, we trimmed a few inches off the sides of boards used for the front and back of the box, and trimmed an even greater amount off the boards we used for the sides. If you have a much smaller child, you would probably want to trim the boards at the bottom, too, so that they're not too long.
- Assemble the boards into a box, using duct tape at the corners to secure everything together.
- Use your painter's tape to tape off equally spaced vertical stripes the whole way around the box. Mine were about two inches apart. I figured out where the center of the box was and started taping about an inch to the right and an inch to the left of center to ensure that I had a red stripe in the center of the box.
- Once everything is taped off, get out the spray paint and start painting. Olivia was ten at the time we made her costume, so I let her do the spray painting.
- Allow the paint to dry and then carefully peel the painter's tape off.
- Measure the opening at the top of the box so that you can make a top out of the fifth board. Cut the board so that it fits snugly into the top of the box.
- Cut a hole in the center of the top. Check to make sure it slides easily over your child's head before you attach it to the box. Save the circle you just cut out. You will use it for the headpiece.
- Attach the top to the box with duct tape. You will have to put the duct tape on the underside so it doesn't show on your red stripes.
- Apply the Great Stuff to the top of the box a little at a time and stick the popcorn into it before it dries. I tried to get the foam in the seams to help secure everything together a bit better than the duct tape alone. This is the Great Stuff we used:
- Figure out where you want the arm holes, and cut them out with your utility knife.
- Punch two holes on opposing sides of the headpiece circle. Thread your elastic into each hole, leaving enough slack that the elastic fits snugly under your child's chin, and knot it.
- Apply some Great Stuff to the headpiece and add popcorn.
- Print out an extra large popcorn logo. I just went into power point and selected a font that looked appropriate and played around with it. Mount the logo on the red card stock, and glue the entire thing to the front of the box.
- Send your child out trick-or-treating. Tell him/her that you need to check all of their treats before they eat anything. While you are "checking the treats," put all the Snickers bars in your pocket and consider them your reward for making this awesome costume!
I love making these creative homemade costumes, but I'm secretly hoping that both my kids choose a store bought costume this year. One of these would be perfect:
I'd love to have the extra time to plan a Halloween party or do some fall baking with the kids. I'll let you know what they decide. Whatever you decide to do or wear for Halloween, I hope you have fun!

No jack for The Jack!
Morris will return to the ballot a 14th year, which is how long it took Bert Blyleven to get elected. After his election, Blyleven thanked and credited an investment manager named Rich Lederer for lobbying for him. Lederer used baseball blogging site, BaseballAnalysts.com, to pump up Blyleven. He also contacted writers with Hall of Fame votes and shared the numbers he crunched on Bert's behalf.
I talked to Lederer today after Larkin got in and Morris didn't.
BS: Were you surprised Morris wasn't elected?
RL: I would have been more surprised if he did get in. That would have required a humongous jump (in percentage of votes). I actually thought Larkin would get in. I have personal favorites. I think Alan Trammell should be in, and Tim Raines. I also would vote for Jeff Bagwell and Edgar Martinez.
BS: Game 7 of the World Series. Both Morris and Blyleven are in their prime and available. Who do you start?
RL: I know a lot of people would take Morris based on what he did in 1991. The one thing I got a kick out of is, the one time they faced each other in the playoffs, Bert won (6-3 in Game 2 of the 1987 ALCS between the Twins and Detroit Tigers). So I think that's an interesting stat. I think your question would generate a lot of Jack Morris conversation. But when they did face each other, Blyleven won.

And I don't really see that what SBB is doing is all that fundamentally different, even if his repetition and his selective use of facts sometimes gives him the appearance of simply trying to argue for argument's sake.
He's invented words to describe Morris' ability to win for pete's sake.
I don't agree with him on Morris (or much of anything else, for that matter), but what's "trolling" about arguing in favor of a candidate (Morris) with widespread HoF support, if it's not "trolling" to spend just as much time arguing against another potential candidate (Ichiro) whose likely support is nearly unanimous?What's trolling about it is making bad faith arguments that he doesn't believe and doesn't expect anybody else to believe, but just tries to get attention for himself.
Jon Heyman
"Morris' detractors generally point to one unextraordinary number, and while it's an important number, it should not define his career. His lifetime ERA of 3.90 would be the highest of any pitcher in the Hall of Fame, and his ERA plus of 105 is barely above average. But Morris pitched deep into his games and deep into his middle age, trampling his lifetime ERA. Morris is known by teammates to have pitched to the score, which enabled him to win more games than anyone else in the '80s and 254 games overall. (The leading winners in the seven preceding decades are all in the Hall.) In seven seasons, he received Cy Young votes. So he had plenty of great years."
He is known by his teammates have pitched to the score, so ignore any game-by-game analysis that empirically proves that "knowledge" wrong.
BTW I'm not saying that those who are arguing against Ichiro are trolling, only that Sugar Bear's not, either. He simply represents a POV that few of us here subscribe to, but what's the big deal about that?
I think SBB sincerely believes the stuff he writes. I think he does a lot of poor analysis with his selective "big games" stuff and whatnot but I think he, like that Ron Guidry guy, sincerely believes what he is saying.

text: HomeProject IdeasTouch Screen Project Ideas for Engineering Students on Home and Industrial Automation Systems Tarun Agarwal Project Ideas 14 Comments Touch screen technology has been around for a number of years but advanced touch screen technology has come on in leaps and bounds recently. Companies are including this technology into more of their products. The three most common touch screen technologies include resistive, capacitive and SAW (surface acoustic wave). Most of low end touch screen devices contain on a standard printed circuit plug-in board and are used on SPI protocol. The system has two parts, namely; hardware and software. The hardware architecture consists of a stand-alone embedded system using a 8-bit microcontroller, several type of interface and driver circuits. The system software driver is developed using an interactive C programming language. 1. Touch Screen Based Home Automation System: The project is designed to wirelessly control electrical appliances using RF communication. It uses a control board at the receiver end and another control board at the transmitting end. A touch screen display along with a microcontroller is used at the transmitting side. By using this display one can transmit the information on which load is to be ON / OFF. On the receiver side a microcontroller along with other peripherals is used to process the data received by the transmitter. 2. Touch Screen Based Remote Controlled Robotic Vehicle for Stores Management: A touch screen based remote control is designed to control a robotic vehicle using RF technology. At the receiving end, a robotic vehicle is used which picks an object and displaces it from one location to another. A microcontroller is used in this project at both the ends i.e., at the transmitting and receiving side to control the complete project. The robotics vehicle consists of a soft catching arm to avoid excessive pressure on the object which is handled. 3. Touch Screen Based Industrial Load Switching: A touch screen display is used in this project to manage switching of industrial loads. Using conventional switches in highly inflammable area could lead to disasters. So touch screen displays can be used in these conditions for switching of these appliances. The control unit comprises of a microcontroller interfaced with the touch screen display along with other peripherals to perform the desired operation. A touch screen panel is interfaced to the microcontroller. Open touching a specific part of the panel, the microcontroller receives the information about the coordinates of the part and processes the information to obtain the required data (the load number to be switched) and accordingly the particular optoisolator is given the signal to trigger the TRIAC and the lamp is switched on as current flows through it.

Marauders and Tricksters
Maybe it's that they are so beautiful.
Maybe it's because they're so darn cute when they're babies.
The other night I saw them through the sliding window again.
This time they just walked across the yard and under the grape arbor like they owned the place...
and disappeared behind the new potting shed.
I grabbed my camera and went out the back door and around the house.
Thought I could catch them unaware.
A few candid shots of a cute fox eating bird seed. I wanted to get closer to them so I walked around the side of the house trying not to make any noise.
I quietly got my camera ready.
I looked behind the new shed and it appeared that they were gone.
I was looking down toward the burned area below the goat run when I noticed that something was moving down in the vegetable garden.
MY FIG TREE WAS MOVING and you'll never guess who was in the fig tree helping itself to my figs.
The photo was taken about 25 to 30 feet away and them I cropped the photo for the post.
That Fox was up in the Fig tree, balancing like a tight rope walker on my already endangered fruit tree.
The goats leaned on the fence in the Spring, bending as far as they could to eat the tasty new leaves.
Then Brownie broke into the garden and pruned the tree for me.
Then the fire we had a month ago left the poor tree with fire retardant all over it.
And to top it all off the tree has been struggling with some kind of bark problem that we have been trying to resolve.
And now a fox decided to do a balancing act in the tree so it can reach some figs.
Look what it did.
It was up there dancing around, doing a balancing act in the branches like this was some kind of amusement park ride.
"I see you... you handsome, little marauder." I said , as I walked around the other side of the shed to get a better view of him/her... it.
The fox jumped down and slid through the fence into the burned area below... and then he turned and looked at me.
The last photo is courtesy of Google Images by someone named Curlyson.
Both Baby Fox photos are courtesy of Google Images too.

sly fox with his devilish charms...he is beautiful of course...and sly as a pic in penzoil...sorry about the tree....

He may have just been trying to make nice, or say thank you, but given their reputation he was probably laughing. Is this where the saying "Good fences make good neighbors" came from?
I love the wildlife, but.... good thing you don't have chickens. You don't have chickens, do you?
- September 17, 2011 at 4:50 AM
They are cute but they can be destructive as you well know. Love your photos. I hope they didn't hurt your fig tree to bad. Have a blessed day. Madeline

I have plenty of these visitors too-which include deer as well. Like yo, I try to embrace all the wildlife that visits but its not always easy.

OMGoodness! I can't believe you were able to capture him on film! And I had no idea foxes liked figs! We have beautiful foxes here too...just wish they were the ones who paid late night visits to us instead of COUGARS! I'm in the midst of a struggle with my former love of wildlife. I love them high in the mountains feeding on something besides my dear little goat girls.

I love wildlife - in the wild. Have difficulty feeling so loving when they encroach on my patch. I had no idea foxes could climb trees! Thanks for a delightful post.

I don't even bother trying to grow things where I live. We don't have foxes but we do have deer, bears, and the occasional cougar and who knows what else. I am tempted to invest in a webcam. They are cute though aren't they?

I love foxes but then again I don't have them in my taxed fig tree! I only have them in my fairy tale mind and make felted renditions of them...they are quite beautiful though.
Glad you enjoyed the Song for Saturday...hope all is well...

- Chef E said...
Eeeeeee! That is the craziest thing! I hope the tree makes it. A guy here sells fig trees and I have been tempted, but we have to buy a car now, and try to visit my son.
Cute photo at the end, freakin cute!

The International Ski Federation says the men's downhill at the Vancouver Olympics has been postponed because of a slushy course.
The opening Alpine race was called off about seven hours before it was scheduled to start Saturday. A replacement date was not immediately announced.
The first women's event, the super-combined, was supposed to be Sunday, and the decision to postpone that was made Friday.
Repeated snow, rain, fog and too-warm temperatures have turned the Olympic slopes into a soft, mushy mess too dangerous to be used for high-speed skiing. Only one of six training runs for men and women has been completed as planned.

Police charged an employee with arson in connection with a fire at a Lexington movie theater earlier this month.
Police arrested Stephanie Robinson, 34, at the Movie Tavern on North Locust Hill Drive on Sunday. According to court documents, Robinson lit a fire and left it burning inside the manager's office back on Friday, April 12. Firefighters say the sprinkler system helped control the fire.
Court documents indicate the fire caused more than $50,00 in damage.

In Other Words: Developing Bilingual ExhibitionsJuly 30th, 2009 - Posted in 2009, Dimensions by Christine Ruffo
By Carlos Plaza
From ASTC Dimensions
July/August 2009
Over the course of 10 years, the exhibit team at the Miami Science Museum, Florida, has developed general guidelines and strategies for writing and designing bilingual exhibitions. These guidelines result from our experience producing Spanish-language interpretation for more than 40 bilingual exhibitions, and from much trial and error. Although these guidelines refer to English/Spanish interpretation, the principles can be applied to bilingual exhibitions in other languages.
There is certainly more to be learned, but let's look at some of the basic issues. Following these strategies can lead to a more accessible and rewarding experience for all visitors.

In a typical supermarket, you'll find the healthier, fresh foods -- fruits, vegetables, meat and dairy -- around the perimeter of the store. The inner aisles contain the unhealthier, processed foods, which are often high in saturated fats, trans fats, preservatives, sodium, and calories.
When choosing fruits and vegetables, select as many different colors as possible for the best all-around health benefits. The different colors indicate different combinations of nutrients, and eating a wide variety of colors will ensure that you are getting a diverse assortment of nutrients, including vitamins and minerals.
In the deli and meat section, select lean cuts of meat, poultry and seafood rather than the processed ones that you find in the inner aisles of the market. They are lower in sodium, which may affect your blood pressure, and don't contain nitrates, which may cause cancer.
In the dairy section, select low fat or non-fat products. You will save 70 calories by drinking 8 fl oz of non-fat versus whole milk. Also choose low fat or non-fat cottage cheese, yogurt and sour cream.
Skip the cookies and cakes and other sweets in the bakery section, and look for 100% whole grain bread. If a bread contains high fructose corn syrup, make sure is not one of the first ingredients listed. Ingredients are listed in order according to level of content.
Inside the perimeter of the market, look for condiments, low and non-fat salad dressings, cereals made with whole grains and little sugar, and other healthy choices. Read the labels, and be on guard.
It's in the inner aisles that most of the marketing is aimed at you, and it's usually at eye level. So look high and low, and around the perimeter of the market, for the better choices.
Healthy regards,
Megan Porter, RD

Washington, D.C. – In a letter to the Chairmen and Ranking Members of the Senate Finance Committee and House Ways and Means Committee, U.S. Senator Barrasso (R-Wyo.) requested Congress make several changes to the Cobell legislation that is included in the tax extenders bill.
Senator Barrasso, Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, made the following statement about the letter:
"I recently asked Indian tribal leaders for their feedback about five important parts of the Cobell settlement. I specifically wanted to know their opinions about attorneys' fees, incentive awards, bank selection, the $2 billion land consolidation program and the pro rata formula used for allocating the $1.412 billion settlement fund. A wide range of leaders and individuals throughout Indian Country responded with thoughtful concerns and constructive advice. I appreciate their feedback and value their opinions.
"We have an opportunity now to fix some of the concerns in a way that will help individuals in Indian Country without destroying the agreement. I look forward to working with the Chairmen and Ranking Members to ensure that these issues are addressed before Congress approves the settlement."

I am a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist and Certified Diabetes Educator working at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto, and as a nutrition consultant. My strong professional and educational background, and years of experience, have made me a highly sought after expert in the field of nutrition. I practice a holistic and integrative approach providing science-based guidance on food and diet along with nutritional supplements and natural health products where appropriate. I am regularly called upon by the media to make sense of the latest nutrition and food issues. I am experienced in television, radio and print media. For over three years I wrote a column in the Toronto Star called the Vice Squad where I reviewed various food products not only on their nutritional merit but with a focus on the marketing angle and product claims which are a major source of confusion for most consumers. The column now runs in the Hamilton Spectator. I have offered my expertise on nutrition articles for Healthy Directions, Glow, Homemakers, Chatelaine, Reader's Digest, Now Magazine, The National Post, and LeDroit (Ottawa). I've been a guest on CHCH Television Morning Live and @ Home, CBC Radio, CP24's Wylde on Health, and 680 News. I also served as the nutrition expert for the Ministry of Health's former website, www.healthyontario.com, for four years where I wrote monthly articles on nutrition and diet. Most recently, I co-authored the book Nutrition for Canadians for Dummies (Wiley 2008).
