everything's better with bluebonnets
I spent last week in the Hill Country of Texas in and around Fredericksburg in Gillespie County in search of wildflowers, as well as beautiful gardens and culinary delights, all part of a press tour arranged by Geiger and Associates and the Fredericksburg Convention & Visitor Bureau. This part of Texas is renowned for its springtime fields of bluebonnets (Lupinus texensis), the state flower. Sadly, the extreme drought plaguing the region this year has diminished the show. But I still found plenty of gorgeous flowers to enjoy.
The close up shot of a bluebonnet, at left, was taken in the garden at the Fredericksburg Herb Farm where I stayed two nights in one of their delightful Sunday house cottage replicas. I didn't indulge in one of their spa treatments, but did partake of a delicious salad sampler lunch in their restaurant. Owners Rosemary and Dick Estenson made certain that I was taken care of well.
One area attraction that was a must-see on my list was Wildseed Farms, the largest wild seed producer in the nation, and host to more than 300,000 visitors yearly. In addition to wildflower display gardens, John Thomas and his staff offer a great selection of landscape plants, gift items, and an on-site restaurant called the Brewbonnet Biergarten, where we had lunch.
One bit of trivia: Not all bluebonnets are blue! Color can vary from pure white to pink to blue to near maroon. Wildseed Farms carries 'Alamo Fire' maroon bluebonnet in their online catalog, and has white forms of the plant on display.
The best display of bluebonnets that I saw, however, was at Torre de Pietra Vineyards, one stop on an afternoon Texas Winery tour that included Pedernales Cellars.
Wildflowers could show up almost anywhere in Fredericksburg. The Hinckley's golden columbine pictured in this post was right in the middle of town next to the Vereins Kirche, a symbol of the town's German Heritage, and an extension of the Pioneer Museum. Just down Main Street at the main site of the museum, I spotted some brilliant orange Indian paint brushes on the grounds surrounding the historical buildings on display.
One morning I took a trip to Enchanted Rock State Natural Area. This granite outcropping provides fantastic views of the surrounding countryside, but an inhospitable substrate for plant growth. But as you can see at right, some determined plants take root in cracks and crevices, providing color in this harsh environment. For those searching for wildflowers at the park, you'll have better luck by taking the loop trail around the rock.
I have several seedlings of bluebonnets growing in my greenhouse at home. I'll plant them in the garden this spring and fondly remember the Texas Hill Country when they send up their fragrant blue and white spires.

Poinsettias-Texas style
Even the poinsettias are larger than life in Texas. I discovered that on a recent press trip to Brenham, Texas, hosted by the Washington County Convention and Visitor's Bureau. Along with 15 other journalists, I spent several days in the "Birthplace of Texas", exploring such sites as Ellison's Greenhouse, where the photo at left was taken. Sharon Asakawa, host of GardenLife radio show, is a petite woman, but these 6-foot-tall plants towered over nearly everyone. (I'll be a guest on Sharon's call-in show on Sunday morning, December 12. Check the station list for times in your area.)
In addition to mammoth poinsettias, Ellison's Greenhouse grows standard-size plants in colors ranging from traditional red to pink, white, burgundy, orange, and bicolor. One of my favorites was Iced Punch (pictured below), a two-toned cherry red and white variety with distinctive markings reminiscent of stained glass.
Washington County also offers many other horticultural wonders. Antique Rose Emporium, gardens at the Round Top Festival Institute, Chappell Hill Lavender Farm, Lavande olive and lavender farm, Windy Winery, and Pleasant Hill Winery were some of the additional stops on the tour.
For those more interested in history or food, the trip included the Washington-on-the-Brazos Historic Site, where Texas declared its independence from Mexico, a tour of the Blue Bell ice cream factory where we were treated to Homemade Vanilla fresh off the line, plus stops at several fun and funky restaurants, such as Royer's Round Top Cafe with its Carnivore Platter and "Pie for Life" program; R Place, which serves up BBQ and family-style fixin's, along with homemade cobbler and Blue Bell ice cream; Must Be Heaven Sandwich Shoppe with its unique Sawdust Pie; and the Funky Art Cafe, which is part gourmet restaurant, part art gallery, and part gift shop. The fabulous food didn't stop at the restaurants, however. My hosts at Texas Ranch Life guest ranch and Lillian Farms Bed & Breakfast also treated us to delectable meals. (Did I mention that I gained 5 pounds on this trip?)
One regret that I had on the trip is that it didn't happen during spring when the Central Texas hillsides are covered in bluebonnets, the native wildflower lupine. Of course, that's just an excuse to return to Washington County for another helping of Texas hospitality!

The Society of International Students has been very busy planning and organizing student activities to promote the organization. The organization has been attracting new collaborations with other departments on campus such as Social Equity and the Honors College. The SIS has recently launched its new official T-shirts, which can be purchased at $20.00. The T-shirt consists of the SIS logo along with the famous slogan "Bringing the nations to the Blazer nation." The slogan reflects the entire motto of the organization which is to bring culture and diversity to the Valdosta State University campus and Valdosta Community.Cultural Hours have been a success since it started. Student have enjoyed experiencing a new country every other week and having a little taste of around the world. The SIS also hosted a field day where students had a chance to play childhood games such as: lime and spoon, balloon toss and the main event was a water melon eating contest. This month, the SIS will be participating in VSU's homecoming parade. Be sure to look out for all the colorful flags and traditional attire. During the month of November International Education Week will be celebrated whereby the SIS has an entire week of activities planned. Be sure to check our Facebook or student emails for more information. We would like to thank all students for supporting the Society of International Students, we want to make your college experience a memorable one. If you have any suggestions on how to improve activities please contact us.
Society for International Students Blog
International students – unique, diverse, and proud blazers! As a part of the large blazer family, we have a commitment to return to the community that have embraced our unique presence and welcomed us all with open arms, semester after semester. This spring semester, the biggest project that we have had to tackle is the INTERNATIONAL DINNER. This dinner is the third largest event of the school, and as a result, takes lots of time to prepare and practice.
All the individuals, both students and citizens of Valdosta, who attend are always left impressed, well fed, and very entertained. However, this blog won't be focused on what happened the night, but rather the events that led to the spectacular night and the people who made the event possible. We won't deny the fact that the last days leading up to the event were the most chaotic; everyone was scattered and last minute changes to the programs were being made. However, many moments of laughter, small jokes, and clowning around took place. I believe that what made each moment even more special was the fact that everyone was trying to have fun while working. Remember, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
The day that often tests the patience of all those involved is the practice evening held the day before the dinner. In addition, while the practice was taking place, there is a full staff kitchen in Hopper Dining Hall with a very talented and dedicated group of international students who were putting their taste buds and time to the test. I was able to take a peak in the kitchen, and if you love food just as much as I do, you would have wanted to taste everything that was being made. There were cuisines from all over the globe being made and perfected, and there I was hanging around in the kitchen with a camera and the urges to dip my finger in the batter that Daniel was making and pick on pieces of Turkmen patty that Merdan, Suleyman, Genna, Carly and Jordan were working on.
After getting away from the hall of temptations (Hopper Hall), I went back to the Student Union where I caught many of the other international students practicing their performance. I got a chance to learn a few steps of Azonto from Tochi, Somaya, and Vianey, pick up a few words from the K-pop song that was being danced by the flash mob, and got to walk around the stage with the hosts of the show: Aysia and Kirk.
The night was a long one for all those who were preparing for the successful day to come. Even though, for the most part I was walking around and taking pictures, through my lens, I was able to capture the effort, dedication, and work put into the International Dinner by the international student community of Valdosta State.
Every year the Society of International Students(SIS) hosts one of the largest events at Valdosta State University.It is called the International Dinner and this year is the 38th time it is being held. The International Dinner has become an annual event whereby international students attending the school work together to plan and host the event. This year's theme is Journey around the world, the dinner will be based around the theme of travelling around the world. Food from the four continents: Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas will be served buffet style. While guests eat, they will be entertained with traditional dances, songs and even music performances by international students and student organizations. For this event to be possible, the SIS does fundraising to help cover some expenses. So far the SIS had a Valentine Bake sale whereby Valentine cards written in foreign languages were sold, along with decorated cupcakes.
This Friday the SIS will have an International Bake sale whereby international treats will be sold. This event is one of a kind because it is student driven, meaning that every part of this event involves students. The money raised goes towards the international student foundation that helps provide opportunities for international students attending Valdosta State University. It is also a night to share diversity and culture with the Valdosta Community. There are many ways in which one can support this wonderful event. One main way to help is by becoming a sponsor of the event, attending the event or participating in the silent auction and raffles during the event. We hope to have a sold out show and once again impress our guests. The International Dinner will be held on March 29 at 6:00 p.m., tickets can be purchased at the Center for International Programs or on March 11 at North Campus and on March 13 at the Student Union on Main Campus at Valdosta State University.
We would like to thank everyone for being part of such a unique event and we hope to see you all there!For more information visit our facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/sis.vsu!
The Society of International Students would like to welcome all new and returning students. This semester we started off our first Cultural hour featuring Japan. We were very pleased with the attendance and participation of the students. The Cultural hour started with a quiz based on Japan, followed by making your own Mochi. Mochi is a Japanese rice cake, then students enjoyed playing a card game called Karuta.After all the fun games, students got a taste of delicious Japanese food. Students were then offered the chance to wear Japanese Kimonos. We would like to thank Ms. Ai Kataoka for planning the event and joining with the SIS to make this event such a success. We look forward to keep sharing culture here at VSU.
The Society for International Students would like to introduce its new Executive committee leaders. Elections were held on Friday November 8, whereby students were given the chance to vote online. The new president, Katya Solomkina, is a very energetic and friendly young lady who is a sophomore from the country of Kazakhstan. She is also a senator of the Student Government Association at Valdosta State University. We are very excited to work with her because we know she will do an extraordinary job at representing the Society for International Students on campus.Our newly elected vice president,Gloria De la Garza, is a Freshman majoring in Chemistry. She is from Mexico and has shown interest in making the Society of International Students her priority.
We are eager to see how the SIS grows with the new leadership of these two talented young ladies. With talent being mentioned, our newly elected event coordinator, Tatiana Tsaruk, is a very artistic young lady. She enjoys singing, dancing and art. We are glad to have her on our committee because we know she has creative ideas for our events. Returning to her previous position, Marie Reyes is our treasurer once again. We are also happy to have her back because she will be important in helping the newly elected officers with their roles. Giselle Greaux is our new Publicity Coordinator and we believe she will do a great job in this position. She is an International Business and Marketing major who contributed to the creation of the new App, Blazernation here at VSU. She is very friendly and outgoing, which is a great quality we appreciate in our leaders. We are so excited to be working with such talented and friendly young ladies. Our newly elected secretary, Dilcia Turcios is a senior majoring in Intercultural Communication. She loves learning about new cultures and sharing her own. She is a very dynamic young lady that loves to meet new people. We are excited to have her on our committee because she has shown interest in making the SIS her priority as well.
This year we created a special position Graphic Designer for a very talented young lady, her name is Eliza Reyes. She is a sophomore from Belize Central America who has been creating all the SIS flyers and graphics needed to promote our events.
We really appreciate her work and time she has given to this organization. We would like to officially welcome her to the Executive Committee and let her know that we look forward to continue working along with her. We would like to thank all of these brave young ladies for accepting these important positions and to be the leaders of a growing international student community. We look forward to making 2014 a better experience for international students here at Valdosta State University.
WA-as the Yoruba will say. Zo-as the Hausa will say. BIA-as the Igbo will say.
WAZOBIA-Come, come, come!
Friday the 11th of October was definitely a beautiful day to share Nigerian culture! Since Nigeria had just celebrated her independence on the 1st of October, the SIS thought it plausible to make Friday's cultural hour a celebration of Nigeria's vibrant culture.
This culture-sharing event began at exactly 2:00pm and took place in the Center for International Programs building. Students arrived promptly, enthusiastic to embrace the Nigerian culture, food, languages, etc.
The president of the organization, Chioma Madueke, a Nigerian, started off the event by showing a video about what Nigeria and life in this amazing country looks like. The video discussed the various recreational spots in Nigeria, the different cultures of various Nigerian ethnic groups, the food, and so on. This video also helped in dispelling the myths some students had about Nigeria and helped the students see Nigeria and the Nigerian culture in a different light.
Somai Nwokike, the Secretary of the organization and another Nigerian student, and Chioma, also enlightened the students about the various languages, food preferences, and all other interesting facts about the Nigerians. There are three major languages from the three major ethnic groups: Igbo, Yoruba, and Hausa. There are over 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria. You know what else is pretty cool? In those ethnic groups there are different languages, and for those languages, there are different dialects! This right here is a salad bowl of diverse cultures! Can you believe that?
Moving on, Nigerians enjoy having their food spicy! Chioma and Somai explained that one of the adjustments they had to make when they moved to the US was concerning the food. For example, whenever they want to prepare a Nigerian dish for their American friends, they have to bring the spices down a notch. Although they do like their spicy food, they have to accommodate different cultures and people of those cultures who are not exactly used to spicy food. This is also one of the main goals of the SIS—to encourage students to embrace/accommodate various cultures.
Speaking of food, after the info session about different aspects of the Nigerian culture, it was time for the food!! The dish for Friday was something the Nigerians call Jollof Rice and it was served with plantains. Kudos to our chefs Somai and Tochukwu Madueke, the PR Officer of the SIS, and also another of our Nigerian students, because the food was AMAZING! Jollof Rice is one dish that is common amongst all Nigerian people, irrespective of their ethnic groups. It is also a pretty common dish in some parts of Africa.
In all, the event was a success. The guests that attend had their perspectives broadened by learning more about the Nigerian culture. The SIS is definitely pleased to have some Nigerian students in the organization who keep sharing their amazing culture.
That's all for now folks! As the Nigerian Igbo people will say—Daalu oo! Nwe ubosi oma!
Special thank you to the author of this post Tochukwu Madueke our public relations officer for the SIS!
Every year Valdosta State University celebrates its Homecoming whereby students are encouraged to participate in several activities. The theme for this year's homecoming was commUNITY. The Society for International Students incorporated the theme and came up with their own which was 50 nations, 1 commUNITY. The 50 nations is the amount of countries represented by international students attending VSU which makes up one community. The theme was appropriate for the SIS because the organization is on a mission to be more active on campus.
On Saturday October 7, international students began to congregate at the Center for International programs at approximately 9 a.m. They were encouraged to wear VSU colors or traditional outfits from their home country. Many came out representing their home countries and were eager to participate in the parade. Students were provided with flags from their home country in which they held or wore as part of their clothing.
The parade began at 11 a.m. and the SIS had international music played by a Belizean Dj, Dj Karlo. The music was very live and our students celebrated by singing and dancing throughout the parade. We also had a student dressed up as VSU's mascot, Blaze who lead the SIS in the parade. Students also gave out candy to the children during the parade.
The SIS also had its homecoming queen representative, Dilcia Turcios from Honduras in the parade. This was her first homecoming parade and she was honored to represent the SIS. The SIS was so colorful in the parade with all the flags and energetic students which made us win the Presidents award. We are very proud to win this award and we couldn't have done it without our students!

NOTEBOOK: Shepard's return to field 'doesn't look promising'
The update on cornerback Tee Shepard isn't good for Ole Miss. Shepard, one of the Rebels' top newcomers, hasn't practiced since Friday and may end up missing the entire season with a partially torn tendon under his big toe. The sophomore, who had been running with the first team at times during camp, suffered the injury late last week, and the coaching staff is in the process of getting second and third opinions from doctors before deciding what course of action to take.

Ole Miss resumes camp with indoor practice
After a day of rest, the Ole Miss football team resumed fall camp with a practice inside the Manning Center Monday. The practice essentially marked the midway point of fall camp, and head coach Hugh Freeze was pleased with what he has seen up to this point as a whole and is hopeful his team can carry that into the season opener against Boise Sate.

Ole Miss has built enough depth to where it doesn't need its freshmen to come in and play immediately. The talent, though, of the entire incoming class may leave the coaches with no other choice. (August 5, 2014, Page 6)

We try to keep our posts pretty focussed on the important work at hand here at Bitstreams central, but sometimes even we get distracted (speaking of, did you know that you can listen to the Go-Gos for hours and hours on Spotify?). With most of our colleagues in the library leaving for or returning from vacation, it can be difficult to think about anything but exotic locations and what to do with all the time we are not spending in meetings. So this week, dear reader, we give you a few snapshots of vacation adventures told through Duke Digital Collections.
Many of Duke's librarians (myself included) head directly East for a few days of R/R at the one of many beautiful North Carolina beaches. Who can blame them? It seems like everyone loves the beach including William Gedney, Deena Stryker, Paul Kwilecki and even Sydney Gamble. Lucky for North Carolina, the beach is only a short trip away, but of course there are essentials that you must not forget even on such a short journey.
Of course many colleagues have ventured even farther afield to West Virginia, Minnesota, Oregon, Maine and even Africa!! Wherever our colleagues are, we hope they are enjoying some well deserved time-off. For those of us who have already had our time away or are looking forward to next time, we will just have to live vicariously through our colleagues' and our collections' adventures.

"The Canadian dollar is seen as a commodity currency and metal prices have been going up across the board, commodity prices are up."

"It was a perfect storm for gold today. Lower dollar. Higher oil prices. Base metals rallying. Commodity interest across the board. Funds are not afraid of buying on new highs."
"Why it's always like there's no 'goregrind', 'doom metal', 'sludge metal', 'folk metal', 'atmospheric black metal' albums in 'top 10 metal albums' list?"
"Given the increased correlation between base and precious metals over recent months, any further weakening in base metal prices would be a distinct drag on gold."

"It's the metal price that's clearly driving it. To some extent, costs are better, but metal prices are the game for an aluminum company."

Living in or around Amherst, MA and looking for a Christmas Eve Service? Join us this Christmas Eve at 7pm for a celebration of the coming of Christ at Christmas. We'll be singing carols, hearing scriptural readings as well as a short message on the meaning of Christmas. Everyone is welcome.
Just so you know we rarely cancel our services because of weather. If we do, we'll post it on facebook and our website. Please use your best judgment when deciding whether or not to get on the road. As of now, we are on for both 9:15am and 11:15am. We'll see you there!
We had a church summit this past Sunday and voted to give each of the church staff members a Christmas gift of cash. Part of that gift will be made up of a special collection from members and regular attendees of MERCYhouse. Please consider giving toward this. You can give through our online giving option (see this link). Give it in the category of "weekly offering" and designate it as "staff gift". You can also bring a donation this Sunday. Remember that this is a special offering and not something that should take away from regular giving.
Thank you and if you have any questions, contact
Your attention please! This Sunday is chocked full of changes and surprises. For one we are having only one combined service at 10am that is a Baptismal Celebration. We have four people that will be professing their faith in Jesus to all of us by being baptized. Part of this profession is getting to hear much of what God did to draw them to Himself and bring them to faith. This is one of the high points of the semester so don't miss it!
Speaking of high points. Immediately after our one service (about noon) we'll be hosting a lunch in our downstairs cafe and then participating in a bi-annual church summit. In this summit, we will be voting to commission both servant team leaders (what the Bible calls deacons) and members of our leadership team (what the Bible calls elders). If you are a member of MERCYhouse, you are strongly urged to participate. Everyone is welcome to attend and church members are able to vote.

The marketplace for multitrack audio programs has always been acutthroat arena where companies play feature-set leapfrog, trying tostay one step ahead of the competition. With several strong contendersfor this year's award, the voting, as expected, was divided. However,when we took a close look at the cost-benefit ratios offered by theprograms, one product really stood out: Cool Edit Pro 2.0.
For less than $250, Cool Edit Pro 2.0 offers desktop musicians agateway into the world of professional-level multitrack editing. And inspite of its modest price tag, the software wraps its 32-bit processingpower in a polished, user-friendly environment that sports a newhierarchical Organizer section, a new customizable user interface, along list of useful keyboard shortcuts, and multiple undo levels.
With version 2.0, Cool Edit Pro greatly expands its flexibility. Theprogram supports 24-bit, 192 kHz recording on as many as 128 audiotracks with real-time EQ on each track and buses for track grouping.The program fully supports DirectX plug-ins and includes more than 45DSP effects, ranging from the practical (reverb, limiter, noisereduction) to the offbeat ("brainwave synchronizer"). Cool Edit Pro nowsupports more than 20 file formats, including MP3, and the program'sCD-ripping feature and its new CD-burning plug-in let you to take aproject from start to finish.
Other noteworthy additions include the ability to import and playback MIDI files, view and sync to video (AVI) files, and have your mixserve as either a master or slave when working with SMPTE time code.Remixers and loopmeisters will appreciate Cool Edit Pro's extensive newlooping capabilities. The new Cool Edit Loop (CEL) file format storestempo, beat, and key information. Just insert CEL files into yourmultitrack mix, and the program handles the tempo- and key-matching foryou. You can even perform beat slicing and a variety of otherloop-manipulation tricks. Best of all, Syntrillium offers more than2,000 free, downloadable CEL files in 15 different styles.
Cool Edit Pro's list of features and effects is too long to cover inthis short space, but many thoughtful touches, such as the built-inmetronome, add value to the program. In fact, value is the operativeword in this case. Cool Edit Pro 2.0 competes well with the otherpower-hitters in this category, but it does so without completelyflattening your wallet. We think that deserves an award.

By Dr Arnold M. from New York, NY on Jun 07, 2013
I hung this in a large foyer of an apartment that I am selling to give some "foyer appeal". It is absolutely stunning, like jewels hanging from the ceiling. The amber colored beads pick up the light beautifully. It looks way more expensvie than it is.

Next Convo in 20s Map

Next Convo in 20s Map by Rodrigo
Wondering what the new chat channels are like? Rodrigo decided to make a parody melee type map that shows us. It's just a melee map that mimics the behavior of the new chatrooms spam filters. In 20 seconds, you can only move units 3 times, build 3 constructions, train 3 units, and use 3 abilities. I think we can all agree those need to be fine tuned (since it is currently in testing and we understand that), but this'll give you a good laugh or two.

VoidCraft by Eiviyn
Take control of a massive battlecruiser and engage in a space battle of epic proportions. Your cruiser acts as your home base which you continue to enhance and develop. Yes, you actually build your base on the ship! Although the map is in its early stages, VoidCraft is already published on EU, and the creator is looking for testers and feedback. Take on other players in 2v2 or 3v3, or even play it single player!

Inside RT: News Network or Putin's Propaganda Machine?
Mashable traveled to Moscow to uncover the real story behind Russia's RT, the controversial Kremlin-funded news outlet.
Mashable traveled to Moscow to uncover the real story behind Russia's RT, the controversial Kremlin-funded news outlet.
Sara Firth, an RT correspondent, resigned Tuesday morning over the Kremlin-funded network's coverage of the Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 disaster in the Ukraine. I resigned from RT today. I have huge respect for many in the team, but I'm for the truth. pic.twitter.com/mZ1g0R7N0D — Sara Firth (@Sara__Firth) July 18, 2014 Firth told BuzzFeed that she felt it was "disrespectful" to blame Ukraine for the disaster.
The primary YouTube channel for Russian English-language news channel RT experienced a temporary outage on Monday night into Tuesday morning. RT claimed its account was down for about eight hours due to a glitch that YouTube acknowledged. YouTube did not immediately return a request for comment. Its page has more than 1.2 million subscribers. See also: Russia's English-Language TV Channel: We're Biased and So Are You The channel reported that the outage caused all of its content to be unavailable.
Liz Wahl, an anchor for RT, the English-language news network operated out of Russia, resigned on air Wednesday afternoon over its "whitewash" of coverage related to Russia and its president, Vladimir Putin. Wahl said she could not be "part of a network that whitewashes the actions of Putin." See also: RT Anchor Abby Martin Speaks Out Against Invasion of Crimea Less than a day ago, Wahl tweeted about speaking with her grandparents, who she referenced on-air just before resigning.
A new service launching today adds more momentum to the growing "retweets" movement. Retweeting, as we covered in our article HOW TO: Retweet on Twitter, is becoming an important way to share interesting content on Twitter. Newcomer Repeets tracks hot retweets from today, this week and this month. It also captures all the retweets in a thread and produces trend graphs showing what time a retweet peaked.
When you start out on Twitter, it often feels like you're Twittering to yourself - it's hard to get engaged in conversations or discover what others are talking about. That's perhaps one reason Twitter recently added Trending Topics to the site's sidebar: to create a feeling of community.
