Bill's brother is doing better and is suppose to go home tomorrow.
Today has been one of my better days. I even got a load of clothes done so Bill wouldn't have to do it. Waiting for DWTS and Castle.
I am liking my statue garden more everyday
heres my little girl
She is so funny. I just felt a cold wet nose pushing my foot.She was trying to get at a piece of popcorn I dropped.She is laying right next to me hoping for another piece.
Facebook smiles
Got up early .Early for me. But got all meat wrapped for freezer and got supper in crock pot.
Bill made special trip to Joanne's fabric just to get me some yarn.Also went to Home Depot and got flower pot for garden but it won't fit.But looks good in gazebo.
Bill's brother was rushed back to hospital this morning. He is on way to hospital now to check on him.
Well I have so many fun pics I got from facebook
Hope you had a good weekend
It has taken me forever to get anything to upload.
Pics Bill took
This is a new bloom.First bloom since I got it 4 years ago
It was very sad to do away with it but just too much work when you have no help. I still have hummingbird garden and did keep purple plants and put there. I like the statue garden. I hated looking out window at dead plants. We will keep one flowering plant in plant holder. Changing it out when it stops blooming
Here is before picture and then some now pictures
I have more pics but nothing will upload so I will try again later.
My day started off with white dog in back yard. I didn't know it and opened door for Roxy and and she was in big hurry. When she flew out door there was dog.This is 3rd time the white dog has been in yard. I knew she was friendly but I still wasn't brave enough to go outside. Roxy came in when I called her which surprised me. I knew Bill would be home and she would be ok. But then I saw her go around house to where gate was and got worried about her. I got brave enough to go out with a lease and she was gone.Then I was worried about her.She is a pit and if she had got picked up a shelter would have put her down. But it turned out good. Bill checked over fence first and she was back in her yard. I called the number I had and the girl no longer lived there.In fact she was in NJ. But she said she would call someone. I think when she got out the front she just went home. Very happy she got home.
I have been thinking about getting rid of butterfly garden.It is so much work for Bill and he already has so much to do. I will turn it into a statue garden with just one plant.
Here are the flowers Bill brought me home.He knows I like bright colors

Lime shortage hits Denver -- talk about a wedge issue!
The infamous lime shortage -- which has been blamed on everything from a citrus disease to a Mexican drug cartel -- has hit Denver. And while it didn't seem to affect the taste of the the Best of Denver 2014's Best House Margaritas at Adelitas Cocina y Cantina(two-for-one on Monday nights!), we were talked out of a slice of citrus to go with our Tecate Light.
Adelitas pours the best house margarita in town.

Just the day before, we'd had no problem getting a big wedge of lime -- delivered in a tidy shotglass -- at a far less likely location, the Hangar Bar, a classic dive that dates from 1938. Fortunately, the lime didn't.
Get your limes here!
What signs of the lime shortage have you spotted around town?

I couldn't help but wonder if a double meaning was intended in this opening line from an ITD press release: "Keep your holiday season merry, just don't overdue it." Was it urging people to renew their car registrations, perhaps? Or their driver's licenses? Return their library books? Alas, it was announcing stepped-up patrols for drunken drivers. No word on whether the crackdown was overdue.

"I have ordered this card twice after enjoying it so much the first time. I found it versatile and the perfect size for a short note...sometimes a thank you note or a sympathy note...it worked well for both. I deleted the "thank you" heading and inserted my name at the top. That left a little more room to write."
"I am very pleased with this card. It is beautiful in orange and I think pretty unique. I changed my name font and love the way it turned out."
"I got the pink color. They turned out adorable. I didnt get my name on the bottom. The card is thick and very pretty. Almost looks glittery. Very girly and fun!"
"I had these made up with matching address labels to give my daughter and son-in-law when they purchased their first home. They loved them! They are simple but classy."
"Again, tiny prints comes up with the best designs! I come from a family that is Chinese, Spanish and German. This card is fun, colorful and perfect for just about any nationality! I don't need to get plain blank cards or specific language cards! Love it!"

A friend photoshopped images of him over 80's rappers, we made a thick gold chain from balloons for a photo opp, the favors were magnets with him as Slick Rick "..and this is the way we have to end this story!", we had a dance contest, dance performers, a video of the birthday boy and much more!

I've had this Lincoln for a year and had no luck in finding a cargo liner that I wasn't just settling for. Even after I ordered it I didn't have high hopes but was I ever wrong; installation was a 3 minute thing, it perfectly fits the car's contours and each rear seat can raise and lower independently due to the velcro. The most important part is that our Basset hound, Joey, likes it (good thing because he's why we needed it).

When markets move in a positive direction, you'll hear it from real estate agents first. They see busier open houses, quicker sales or even multiple offers. By the time the news finally hits the mainstream media, buyers start to feel the pull to get back in the market.
That's what we're seeing in many parts of the country right now. With all signs tilting toward a sellers' market for the first time in years, it's helpful for buyers to understand today's seller. No two sellers are alike, of course. But there's a certain mindset that many sellers these days share, and it's a grateful one for many. Understanding that mindset can help buyers more successfully and easily navigate through the process of purchasing a home. The same holds true for sellers. They should be mindful of the buyersthat stand before them.
Here are three things home buyers should know about today's sellers.
According to Zillow's negative equity report, 28 percent of homeowners with a mortgage today areunderwater. Many sellers have been hoping and wishing for prices to increase just a little bit. Some have outgrown their current home, are forced into an hour-long commute (or longer) each day or simply want to move to a new town or area. But due to negative equity, they've been stuck. The emergence of a sellers' market provides them with a glimmer of hope. They just may be grateful for any offer that will allow them to get out at last.
Often, sellers feel the same amount of stress or excitement that buyers feel because they're somewhere in the buying process, too. Though some sellers will become renters after their sale is complete, many will get back in the homeowner game soon after the sale goes through, sometimes immediately. Sellers, as would-be buyers, want to capitalize on low interest rates and home values. Getting the home sold quickly and at today's value may be all a seller needs to make a purchase. Though it may be a "sellers' market,†these sellers usually aren't greedy. They feel the buyer's pain and likely want to get out cleanly and quickly so that they, too, can buy.
Even the sellers who are above water or own their homes outright are well aware of what's happened in the real estate market over the past five years. They've watched their friends and neighbors lose their shirts on real estate, forced to do short sales, or even have their homes foreclosed. They welcome the news that the market is changing, and in their favor, at last. They're more hopeful than they were even six months ago. Generally speaking, however, sellers who aren't stuck in their homes (because of depressed home values or other reasons) are still feeling conservative and cautious. They're more likely to take a bird in the hand than to risk losing a sale because of greed.
Real estate is a game, in a sense, in which both sides hope to achieve their goals, which is why it always helps to understand your "opponent.†When you've found a home you like, figure out who the seller is, how they got there and why they want to sell. Don't make assumptions. Take a step back. Put yourself in their shoes.
Sellers aren't the same as they were around 2005, when many were driven by greed as the market's rise seemed endless. They've just weathered the worst real estate market crash in decades, so don't go into this market, which is very different from even six months ago, assuming sellers are looking to take advantage of you. Don't let your real estate agent convince you that's the case, either. Even though you might think they have a hot property that will sell quickly, the seller is usually willing to negotiate. They may even be grateful to receive a reasonable offer, especially if it at least comes close to the value their home had before the crash.

Is There Any Benefit to Actively Managed Funds?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- If there's any doubt about the ascendance of index-style investing, consider this report from Vanguard Group, the mutual fund giant: At the end of 2012, participants in 401(k)s administered by the firm devoted 60% of their assets to indexers, up from 30% in 2004.
During that period, the share of assets in actively managed funds dropped to 21% from 38%. (The remainder cannot be classified as either.)
An even better measure of the popularity of each type of fund is the allocation of new contributions, Vanguard said. From 2004 through 2012, the portion going to indexers rose to 64% from 32%, while that going to active funds dropped from 38% to 20%.
The results beg the question: Is there any benefit at all to using actively managed funds?By now, most investors know the difference. Actively managed funds employ teams of analysts and money managers to seek hot stocks and bonds. Index funds simply buy and hold the securities in a market gauge such as the Standard & Poor's 500, avoiding the heavy stock-picking costs incurred by managed funds. perform more poorly than its indexed counterpart. There are other benefits, too. Because indexers fly on autopilot, you don't have to worry about something happening to your fund manager. The enormous growth of the fund industry, with legions of managers scrutinizing securities, has made it even harder for managers to find undiscovered gems, making it even tougher for them to compete with indexers. Still, some managers do beat the market performance year after year. So why shouldn't an investor just pick the managed funds with the best track records? One reason is that there are so many managed funds -- thousands upon thousands -- that some managers are sure to beat the averages through sheer luck, like a coin flipper getting a string of heads even though odds favor half heads and half tails. In seems likely that some managers really are talented, but how can an investor tell them from the ones who are just lucky?

This is your property ?
Welcome to...Millepetit Ensoleille
Giteitalic} situated on the banks of the picturesque Canal du Midi
Our self-catering holiday cottage is almost uniquely located as part of a handsomely restored 18th century rustic farmhouse in a truly picturesque setting on the banks of the picturesque Canal du Midi. Situated on the 'Domaine de Millepetit' a small vineyard and working farm, conveniently only a few kms from the medievalLa Cite' and the town of Carcassonne.
The farmhouse has been refurbished for the coming season, which of course means an upgrading of facilities, making us an even more attractive choice for your holiday anytime of the year. It has been restored with 21st century comforts in mind, creating a welcoming home from home, whilst retaining much of its French country charm with stone features, wooden beams and rafters set in the most superb canal-side location.
We are situated on a small working estate or 'Domaine', overlooking this stunning canal, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. We're only a few kms from the famous medieval La Cite', which in turn overlooks the bustling town of Carcassonne.
The gite is part of a larger farmhouse, it is adjoined to a working barn that in turn is connected to the beautiful Chateau of the domaine with its historic 12th century tower.
We are in close proximity to both the sea and mountains so you can easily fully explore this unusual region of South West France. all year round, wether for cultural pursuits, the history of the Cathars, sightseeing, sunbathing or just to take pleasure in tastings at any of the many wine Domaines' of the region.
Your neighbours
A few friendly families also live on this small estate and dependent on the time of year you will find seasonal workers resident here and during the summer months the farm may be a little livelier with farming activity.an ideal opportunity to sample rural life in the Languedoc-Roussillon.
Apart from wine and olives, the farm also produces a variety of fruit and vegetables, which can be bought direct from the farmer, a fresher and more local source would be hard to find.
Wine tasting
The nearest Cave' for a dégustation' or tasting is only 10 minutes walk from the farmhouse.your neighbours at Millegrand' they produce amongst other varieties an Bronze medal award winning Merlot' and are well worth visiting.
Fishing enthusiasts take note, we are only a few minutes walk from the River Aude and fishing on the canal itself, golfers are not excluded, with the fabulous golf course nearby at the 'Domaine de Auriac' it's open all year round and only a few kms away from your holiday cottage, both cyclists and Hikers are also catered for with 245kms of flat canal towpaths to explore.whilst later in the season, for those of you who enjoy skiing, well why not combine a winter City break in Carcassonne with a few days on piste'. the nearest Ski stations being only 70kms from us at Ax-Les-Thermes.
Your French Odyssey
Both the farmhouse and vineyard were recently seen in TV chef Rick Steins French Odyssey', as he motored past in his rented barge. This BBC series celebrated the gourmet delights and sights of 245kms of the Canal du Midi. This unique part of the Aude inspired another celebrated British TV chef to produce his own television series. John Burton Race recorded a year of relocating to France with his family in Montferrand in his Channel 4 TV series and book entitled French Leave'.
AccommodationUpstairs.Our first floor lounge is bright, spacious and comfortable, full of character of wooden beams and rafters, retaining the original old stone sink as a feature, there are cosy sofas to curl up on whilst relaxing or just watching TV. We have installed both British Sky satellite and French terrestrial TV. There's a DVD playe,(we supply a range of current films but don't forget to bring your favourites) Stereo hi-fi, a broad range of books, puzzles and board games, some of which will take you back to your youth. We also have a small library of current films on DVD but don't forget to bring your favourites.
*The nets around the beds are for decorative purposes only, the area around the farmhouse is a mosquito free zone *
We offer our guests two spacious double bedrooms, both furnished in the French country style. Our generously proportioned family' bedroom has a larger queen sized bed for added comfort plus a traditional double bed.with ample space for the baby crib should it be required, all with new mattresses and bedding, plus lots of soft pillows to fall in to after a hard days sightseeing.
The other equally comfortable double bedroom has all new furniture, mattress, bedding etc with lots of storage space and a view of the canal.
There is a large family sized shower room located close to the bedrooms, fitted with a modern powerful shower, a hairdryer is available plus a baby bath if required plus lots of storage space for your holiday toiletries.
Downstairs.You'll discover a large fully fitted modern kitchen, also facing the canal, again with a mix of old and new, retaining the beams and rafters, with all modern conveniences to help maximise your time in the sun, including a new dishwasher. There's a pine farmhouse table and chairs. and a high chair for baby too.
From here you step almost straight out into the farmyard, with the canal only a few steps away.
The downstairs area also comprises a separate utility room with washing machine, with iron, ironing board, airing rack etc. There is an outside drying area for washdays.
We very comfortably accommodate 4 adults, though we can cater with ease for 5 adults plus a baby or toddler very easily with the new addition of our family room.

Safety Deposit Box

The exterior
A few steps from the front door you'll find your private canal-side terrace, complete with table and chairs, an ideal spot to perhaps enjoy a glass of the local wine whilst watching boats amble along the canal.it's definitely life at a slower pace.
Herb garden
Please help yourselves to our herb garden, which you will find at the old water pump.now a garden feature.
Across the canalCrossing the small bridge over the canal brings you to a paddock where the farmer keeps his goat and horses, adjacent to here we have created a more secluded garden with shade fruit and olive trees. Next to the Almond tree under the pergola you'll find a table and chairs plus sunloungers are available if required.
Take some shade under the pergola whilst taking in the stunning scenery, the breathtaking views of the Alaric and Corbieres mountains. Look out for our very own 9th Visigoth castle perched on a promontory which overlooks the garden, better known as Chateau de Miramont, a Cathar stronghold destroyed by Simon de Montforts troops after the siege of La Cite' in the year 1210. perhaps you'll be the one to find the legendary hidden treasure of the Crusaders hidden in the dense forests of the Alaric mountains.
Keeping to this side of the canal a two-minute walk takes you down to the River Aude, a great spot for fishing.according to the locals.
Quite simply, there is something here for everyone to enjoy.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - If you ask almost anyone in a position to know whether Lehman Brothers was "too big to fail," the overwhelming response is something akin to "obviously."
"Lehman was definitely too big to fail," says Lawrence McDonald, a former vice president at the defunct investment bank, when asked whether the collapse of 10 "mini-Lehmans" would have had the same effect. "If smaller banks went down, it wouldn't have anywhere near the impact on the global markets."
Michael Driscoll, a former senior managing director at Bear Stearns' trading desk notes that Lehman's enormous leverage ratio, in effect, made the bank 30 times bigger than itself. "Lehman was in a very tenuous position. It was just a matter of time before, in a bad situation, all that leverage was going to come back to bite you in the rear," says Driscoll, who is now a visiting professor at Adelphi University.
Indeed, at $700 billion, Lehman's balance sheet was big and so was its failure - representing the largest bankruptcy in history. During the S&L crisis of the late-80s and early 90s, thousands of regional banks failed across the country without having nearly as severe an impact on financial markets as Lehman did. Other large investment banks have collapsed throughout the years, too, which pale in comparison to the Lehman debacle.As Christopher Cox, the Securities and Exchange Commission chairman at the time of Lehman's failure put it: "It has been a fact of life in Wall Street's history that investment banks can and will fail. Wall Street is littered with the names of distinguished institutions -- E.F. Hutton, Drexel Burnham Lambert, Kidder Peabody, Salomon Brothers, Bankers Trust, to name just a few -- which placed big bets and lost, and as a result ended up either in bankruptcy or being sold to save themselves." McDonald also notes that the scale of crises increased by a factor of 10 between the S&L crisis and the devastating near-collapse of the hedge fund Long Term Capital Management in 1998. But during the decade between LTCM and Lehman, the scale of financial damage increased by a factor of 100. Yet it might be more accurate to say that Lehman Brothers was actually too opaque to fail, not too big. Philipp Schnabl, an assistant finance professor at New York University's Stern School of Business, uses the example of the Reserve Primary Fund, a $60 billion money-market fund that "broke the buck" shortly after Lehman's failure because of its exposure to the investment bank's debt securities. While the fund wasn't the largest in the industry, panic quickly spread across all types of money-market funds, forcing the Federal Reserve to put a temporary backstop on the $3 trillion industry.

Don't Overpay Your Estimated Taxes
If you are self-employed, chances are you pay estimated taxes. With the final 2008 payment due Jan. 15, it's worth considering how well your estimates match what you actually owe for last year -- and potentially adjusting that last payment as a result.
Here's what you need to know: Estimated taxes serve the same purpose as money withheld from a paycheck -- they fulfill your obligation to pay income tax. Most self-employed taxpayers pay their taxes in four equal payments, usually based on your tax liability for the previous year.
If your 2008 income varies significantly from what you earned in 2007, however, your estimated payments could be off. And that's no good. If you've overpaid your taxes, you've given Uncle Sam an interest-free loan on cash that could have been gathering interest for you in a savings account, essentially earning money for you.
If you've underpaid, the consequences could be worse: The IRS can sock you with a penalty for underpaying -- including a 7% penalty on the amount you failed to pay, possibly dating back to the April 15, 2008, payment. (As long as you pay 100% of your previous year's tax liability or 90% of the current year's liability, you won't incur this penalty.)
Avoid an OverpaymentAt this point, you should have a pretty good idea of how much you earned in 2008. If you earned less this year than you originally estimated, you can decrease your final quarterly payment to reflect your true income. The simplest way to do this is to file your 2008 tax return with your final adjusted payment by Monday, Feb. 2. This way, you can avoid the final quarterly payment on Jan. 15, and you won't have to pay a penalty for sending in your payment late. (Typically, this filing deadline occurs on Jan. 31, but since that's a Saturday in 2009, the deadline has moved to Monday.) If you can't finalize your return by Feb. 2, review your activities over the past year and look for any deductions you didn't anticipate when you made your original tax estimate. Maybe you traveled more than expected and can deduct mileage and meals, for example, or perhaps you had to purchase additional office or computer equipment. Also, don't forget retirement contributions, home office space, business-related publications and medical expenses. All these deductions can affect the amount you owe on Jan. 15.

A great place to Stay!
My wife and 3 Kids (Twins Boy and Girl) 6yrs old and a 4yr old girl, my kids went nuts, plenty of room for the kids to play, quiet location with friendly neighbors (which we hardly saw!! ) What can I say " It Was Fun" everything you need is right there; The Beaches, Mall, food everywhere, grocery stores, Movies theater, "Chilli's" and A Pool! Owner Kim is such a really nice person, we really recommend this place. My wife and I would love to stay there again one day!
Loved Casa Glad!
We stayed at Casa Glad during a long weekend in March as we planned a family reunion with our relatives in the island. Our reunion at the home was a complete success and everyone had a grand time. The home is located in a very private and amazing location overlooking the Atlantic. The home was amazingly well-appointed with anything and everything you could possibly need including boogie boards, fishing poles, games, music, movies, wine glasses and frozen beer mugs, which my husband loved! The beach itself was great for walking, shelling, boogie boarding and fishing. It felt very secluded and safe as we we often the only ones walking on the beach. We had a heat time and hope to be back soon! Thank you Joy!

According to media reports, South African President Jacob Zuma met with the miners on Wednesday, and the leader told the workers that he had initiated an inquiry to investigate the shooting.
Lonmin management also reportedly met with representatives of the miners and said that they would "conceive" about their grievances and demands and get back to the representatives, according to Independent Online of South Africa.
Gold mining stocks were mixed Thursday. Randgold Resources (GOLD) was up 2.1%, while NovaGold Resources (NG) was climbing 0.85%.
Randgold announced Thursday its support of a new interim government in Mali, which for the time being would suggest stabilization in the country, where Randgold operates two gold minds as well as the Morila joint venture.Among other mining stocks, AngloGold Ashanti (AU) was dipping 2.6%, while Gold Fields (GFI) was down 3.7%. Yamana Gold (AUY) announced Wednesday morning the completion of its acquisition of Extorre Gold Mines. The stock was up 1.5%. -- Written by Joe Deaux in New York. >Contact by Email. Follow @JoeDeaux

Creating the garden of your dreams is as much an exercise of imagination as it is a physical labor. Our gardening experts offer great ideas and advice for every step of the process. They'll help you plan your space, pick the right plants for your climate and home, care for your plants through the growing season and make all the right moves when it comes time to harvest. They'll even show you how to add special features to your space, making your garden truly unique.
Keeping up with the harvest in a productive vegetable garden demands the skills of a juggler and the appetite of a teenager.
As a guy who loves to grow his own food, I still don't have all the room or time I need to enjoy everything summer's bounty has to offer.
Come mid-winter, it can be tough to eat directly from the garden in most parts of the world.
A harvest of summer fruits and veggies can be overwhelming…whether from your own garden, or your CSA (community supported agriculture).
There's a place where gardeners don't have to worry about the frost nipping the hibiscus flowers, but most of us only experience it when we're on vacation — it's in the tropics, where the weather is warm all year round, and ban...
While spring bulbs gladden a gardener's heart, those that bloom in summer make my heart race.
This article kicks off our new Fiskars gardening series on growing from seed.
About now, in the mail (and increasingly in my email inbox), they begin to arrive.
Now that your seeds have sprouted and green growth is filling up every inch of your seedling trays, what's next?
You've waited months for the spring to return. Finally, you can start gardening outdoors again. And if you're like me, you're definitely ready to get going.
Gardeners have a valuable tool in the special maps that delineate climate zones across the country.
Starting flowers and vegetables from seed is a great activity, especially when you just can't wait any longer to get your hands dirty before spring.
It never fails. I've been guilty of the same crime: the untimely, overly optimistic and false belief that spring has sprung early.
It can be a challenge to bring a little life into the "concrete jungle," but where there's a will, there's a way!
Around our house, we eat from the garden as much as we can. We don't just grow different vegetables, herbs and fruit to eat. We also plant flowers to enjoy in the kitchen too.
Six ways for gardeners can survive winter with style.

Santa Barbara is filled with summer day camps and activities — hence the need for a Summer Fun guide such as this one. However, it wasn't always this way.
Terry Brown, the current youth activities supervisor at the City of Santa Barbara's Parks & Recreation Department, remembers a time when parents didn't have very many choices of where to send their kids for day camps and activities during the summer.
In the 1980s, there were two big entities offering summer camps and activities, according to Brown: the City of Santa Barbara and the YMCA. While UC Santa Barbara, the United Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Barbara County and Westmont College also offered programming, Brown recalls the frenzy of parents and children registering for the city's summer camps not 15 years ago.
"You'd see dads in sleeping bags," said Brown, recalling registration at MacKenzie Park during that time. "Parents would camp out like (at) a concert."
Since then, summer camps and activities have grown rapidly in Santa Barbara. The Parks & Recreation Department alone used to only offer a few favorites like Aquacamp and Nature Camp in the '80s. Currently for Summer 2014, Parks & Recreation offers more than 20 different types of camps, including half-day and full-day options and a Full Inclusion program for children with special needs.
Brown, who has overseen this growth in her career in coordinating youth activities with the city, attributes all the work to the innovative ideas that people brought to her, staff that works round the clock to fulfill the promises that she makes to clients, and, most of all, the generosity of the community.
"This is the type of generous town where people share," Brown said. "And when you find that niche and lay that foundation with those resources (they provide), then everyone wants to be part of that success."
Brown personally seems to have benefited from the the generosity and connections in Santa Barbara. After working as an hourly camp counselor at UCSB during her summers, she got a recommendation to look for work at the Parks & Recreation Department. Since then, she has worked as a nature camp counselor and has overseen the recreation and after-school program for the city and the Santa Barbara Unified School District. These experiences have led her to successfully conduct all affairs concerning the After-School Recreation Program and Summer Camps and Clinics as the youth activities supervisor.
Not only have these connections with the school districts, Santa Barbara City College and education professionals allowed Brown to excel in her career, but they have helped the Parks & Recreation Department offer the most innovative and exciting programs every summer.
"The technology available to the kids (because of these connections) is exciting," said Brown, after mentioning that a former camp counselor is now a teacher offering up the use of a robotics lab for a summer camp.
While teaching girls about how to run a business, Lego engineering and getting access to a 3-D printer may seem new and exciting right now, Brown is always on the look-out for the newest craze for kids to show off new camps and revamp old ones. There is no doubt that she will find it, whether through meeting a new business partner or getting a call from an old employee of hers with a great new idea.
Through strong ties in the community and ingenuity, Brown has laid a strong foundation of within the department's summer camps. With the classic Nature Camp and Aquacamp, as well as new favorites like PEAK Science and Lego Robotics, Parks & Recreation offers an exciting roster of activities this Summer 2014. One can only see an impressive amount of growth in the Parks & Recreation summer camps in the future.

July birthstone jewelry features rubies, one of the most popular and well known of all gemstones. Red ruby birthday jewelry is the favored by those born in July, and anyone who adores the vibrant color red. Rubies have secured a spot in pop culture, too, lending their name to fruits, restaurants – even Beatles songs. The rosy red of ruby birthstone gifts evokes thoughts of love, security, and contentment.
The 1870 birthstone poem says "The gleaming Ruby should adorn/All those who in July are born/For thus they'll be exempt and free/From lover's doubts and anxiety." We happen to love rubies, because they're awfully close to the color of our signature gift envelopes! Find ruby birthstone necklaces and July birthstone jewelry rings, bracelets, and earrings online at RedEnvelope.
The July birthstone jewelry gifts of rubies are also said to offer protection, harmony, and passion. All of these meanings can be applied to ruby anniversary gifts, too. The vibrant stone is the traditional and modern choice for 40th anniversary gifts, and it's associated with 15th anniversary gifts and 52nd anniversary gifts as well. Husbands have been rumored to present gifts of rubies to their wives, as unique birthday gifts or "just because surprises", to hopefully spark interest and renew ardor within the bedroom. We can't comment on the efficacy of that plan, but we do know that any woman would be delighted to receive ruby jewelry for her. One popular pick in ruby anniversary jewelry is the eternity hearts necklace, which our customers said was "high quality" and "great for the money". The pendant boasts a never-ending circle of lab-created, heart-cut rubies; they are each bezel set in sterling silver for the appearance of a floating ruby red hearts in a circle.
July babies are considered to be fun, affectionate, and sensitive. They have strong, passionate opinions, but their feelings can be hurt easily when others disagree. They might also jump to conclusions when caught up in a swell of emotions. Ruby charms and pendants are said to enhance these positive traits, and help to balance out the negative traits. Pretty much any ruby accessory that RedEnvelope offers can be found categorized as timeless beauty jewelry, because the stones are exactly that! The red color lends itself well to heart cuts, so you can often find romantic gifts of heart-shaped ruby necklaces and pendants for women.
The exact shade of ruby depends on the size, cut, and facets of the individual stone. Some rubies have a deep, blood red hue that's almost black, and others boast flirty shades of bright pink. Cultured ruby jewelry is especially popular, because the gems have the exact same chemical composition as natural rubies. These are created in laboratories, though, which have a controlled environment that can produce flawless stones. RedEnvelope offers both types of ruby birthstone jewelry, so you can select the one that you find preferable. Many people opt for faux rubies in their fashion jewelry, and real rubies in their birthstone or wedding jewelry.
If you're having trouble narrowing down the choices among our online jewelry & jewelry accessories, we can suggest some customer and employee favorites. Those shopping for wives and girlfriends have to take a look at the wire-strung rubies on our "101 ways to say I Love You" necklace or bracelet, or our heart necklace with a pave set coating of brilliant cultured rubies. If you're seeking Mother's Day jewelry and accessories, consider a sweet togetherness hearts necklace. This instant favorite pairs two heart-cut cultured rubies; the smaller heart represents baby, tucked close against the larger heart that represents mom. As with other months, the July birthstone can also be found on the various charms and pendants available in our collection of family jewelry.

Nutrisystem Debuts Its Enhanced Nutrisystem D Diet Plan Specifically Designed For People With Type 2 Diabetes
Nutrisystem D Meets the American Diabetes Association's Nutritional Guidelines
Nutrisystem D meets the nutritional guidelines established by the American Diabetes Association for people with diabetes. Nutrisystem recently confirmed their support of the American Diabetes Association at the National Strategic Partner level and will work to help the Association with its mission related activities of creating awareness and providing educational tools. As part of the company's sponsorship, the Association is offering discounted pricing for Nutrisystem D as a new benefit to its members.
"Type 2 diabetes is reaching epidemic proportions in the United States, but it is a disease that is often preventable with a lifestyle-based approach – better eating habits, regular physical activity, and better tools to self-monitor and self-manage the risks," said Dr. Bruce Daggy, Chief Science Officer at Nutrisystem. "Likewise, lifestyle approaches are key to improving outcomes for those with the disease itself. To help battle this epidemic, we've spent years developing, improving and testing Nutrisystem D. We know that being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes can be traumatic, and changing a lifetime of habits can be difficult. That's why we've worked so hard to make Nutrisystem D simple and easy to follow."
Nutrisystem D Program Overview
- A wide selection of more than 130 nutritionally balanced, portion-controlled entrees and snacks, delivered directly to customers' homes with customizable menus.
- The program provides access to Registered Dietitians, Counselors and Certified Diabetes Educators, as well as behavior modification materials developed by a leading expert in weight loss treatment, online tools for tracking progress, and online support communities, all at no extra cost.
- The program also includes My Daily 3, a Nutrisystem-developed approach to physical activity based on the actions of daily living. Nutrisystem membership is free and doesn't require members to visit centers, participate in group weigh-ins, count carbohydrates or calories.
- Nutrisystem is cost effective and provides savings of hundreds of dollars compared to other home delivery weight loss options. Food delivery is free of charge for customers enrolled in auto-delivery.
- Some insurance providers may cover, or contribute to, the cost of the program. See: Nutrisystem Health Insurance Reimbursement Forms.

Replacing teeth can be a complicated and expensive process, especially if you don't have dental insurance. This procedure often requires building up the jaw with a bone transplant due to the fact that when a person looses a tooth the jaw decreases in volume. Now, researchers from Sweden believe that they can move teeth using a brace, eliminating the need for this complicated procedure. Researchers tested their process on dogs, using braces to gently move teeth into the area of the missing tooth. They found that this process effectively fills the gap between teeth without reducing the moved tooth's attachment to the jaw."In other words, many patients can be given more teeth more easily," said researcher Lindskog Stoklan.Now the question remains, what happens to the site of the moved tooth? According to researchers, the area where the new tooth previous was seems to experience less of a reduction in bone mass, making it a good place for dental implants that will not require a bone transplant. These new procedure could make the process of having a tooth replaced less invasive. For more information on discount dental plans call 1-888-632-5353.
