Your Fertility Appointment Today to Start Your Family Tomorrow
You are here
Dear TLC ...
a blog by Infertile Naomi, September 10, 2010
Dear TLC,
I am a big fan of your network and enjoy many of your programs. However, as a woman experiencing infertility, I kindly request that you think about changing some of the names of your shows.
Show Title: Quints By Surprise
A story about Casey and Ethan Jones who wanted to add one more baby to their family and were thrilled with their fertility treatment resulted in quintuplets. I would understand if the couple had not done fertility treatments and — surprise — you have five babies. Now, that's a surprise. But when you have multiple eggs, sometimes you get multiple children. Where's the surprise?
Better Title: Surprise! Your Fertility Treatment Actually Worked this Time!
Show Title: 19 Kids and Counting
The story of the Duggar family, who can procreate at the drop of a hat and have named all their kids starting with the letter J. Please stop procreating already. While some of us can't even seem to have one, you are already blessed with so many children. Perhaps Michelle Duggar can offer to become a surrogate for the rest of us infertile folks? She is a human fertility machine.
Better Title: 19 Kids. Please Stop Procreating
Show Title: I Didn't Know I was Pregnant
I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant is a series that reveals the astonishing stories of women who conceive and carry their babies all the way to labor and delivery with no idea that they were ever pregnant. Meet Lilah, a 35 year old woman who thought she had gained 30 pounds from too many donuts. Meet Cheryl, a 20 year old, who went to the hospital for a stomach ache and came home with twins. And, 29-year-old April thinks she has food poisoning, but it turns out it wasn't bad barbecue, it was a baby.
Better Title: I Didn't Know I Could Be This Dumb
Here are some of my other suggestions for future, more realistic, TLC programming …
- Show Title: Why Didn't IVF Work on the First Attempt?
A story of women who spend thousands of dollars on in vitro fertilization, but the sperm and egg refused to fertilize.
Show Title: I Am a Fertility Drug Addict
The story of five women getting high on Clomid and fertility injections.
Show Title: I Haven't Ovulated Since 1980
The story of women dealing with PCOS who haven't seen their menstrual cycles since the TV show Family Ties went off the air.
And although I do enjoy all your pregnancy and baby-themed programming, I suggest that you think about putting an additional infertility warning before the show. Instead of "This program may contain material unsuitable for children," change to "This program may cause tears and heartache for any couples dealing with infertility."
Just a thought.
Thank you for taking some of my suggestions into consideration.

Love, Love, Love this!!!!
Love, Love, Love this!!!!
So true! Loved this!
So true! Loved this!
Totally AWESOME! I agree!!
Totally AWESOME! I agree!! Great ideas.
I think of this same exact
I think of this same exact thing every day, just about. I really can't stand TLC anymore....
Fantastic! Thank you for
Fantastic! Thank you for the Friday afternoon laugh.
May I also offer "Jon, Kate and 6, plus those other two who have to be wondering how come they weren't good enough?"
Secondary Infertility is
Secondary Infertility is painful, too. I am a sufferer of Secondary Infertility and so I very much understand why Jon and Kate tried again for another child after their twins. It is comments like this that make us with SIF feel like we are not acceptable to the IF world. It's what makes SIF so very, very lonely.
Got to love it! So true!!
Got to love it! So true!! Maybe Duggar should become a surrogate, how about letting others have a chance using her fertility? Now that would be a show. I'd rather watch a surrogate mother show then her!
Oh fun! How about "While
Oh fun! How about "While you were Ovulating" :)
You are HILARIOUS!!! I love
You are HILARIOUS!!! I love you! Thanks for always making me smile.
LOVE it!! As always,
LOVE it!! As always, cracked me up! At first I really thought this was going to be a real letter to TLC!
PS I truly think you SHOULD send it ;)
Hi My Lovely Readers, Yes.
Hi My Lovely Readers,
Yes. I did send it to TLC and they responded saying they are passing it along to someone else. I have also been in email contact with Ethan (the dad from Quints by Surprise) who agreed that the name of the show wasn't his choice. They actually seem like a great family so I will probably watch the show :)
-Naomi xoxo
Love it! I think they
Love it!
I think they should do a show following infertile couples through IVF.....'Hijacked Hormones' or something like that. I was a hot mess during my ivf cycle. I'm sure a lot of people laughed at me ;)
I'd like to.see a show
I'd like to.see a show called "infertile house" where several coupled cohabitate during various IF treatments, sharps containers evetywhere, the shot cam, etc.
Keep up the good work my infertile friend.
HA!!! they would have to
HA!!! they would have to have security guards all over....could you imagine a house full of women going through fertility treatments and injections all at the same time??? our poor husbands would all be hiding under the beds and we'd all be ready to kill whoever looked at us wrong :-) but i still love the idea gemmabean!!!!!!
Naomi you are the best!!!!
Naomi you are the best!!!! You can always make me laugh with your 999 blog. This is great I hope TLC listens!
Thank you :) This is sooo
Thank you :) This is sooo true!! I cannot watch TLC anymore just for the pure fact that they are throwing around people having babies like its in the water or something.
Though I understand your
Though I understand your pain and anguish, but some of what you are spouting is anger, bitterness, and unforgivness, they may listen to your pleas if they weren't laced with this. I will be praying for you.
Gotta love "holier than
Gotta love "holier than thou" Christians who obviously do not understand what going through infertility is like.
Wow...why do some people
Wow...why do some people have to be so hateful when we're just trying to find humor in such a hurtful part of our lives.
I think it is terrible that
I think it is terrible that you are saying that Christians don't understand what infertility is like. You think that every Christian can get pregnant on command or something? Um, I am a Christian and an infertile. My husband and I have been struggling to get pregnant for over 5 years. You should not attack other peoples' faith. Especially when you have no idea if the person you are attacking is or isn't a Christian.
I am a Christian and I
I am a Christian and I think you need to reread that message, <"holier than thou" Christian> was the reference made not all in general. Those that label themselves as Christian but follow none of the ideals. Those that judge and hedge their nasty comments with "I will pray for you"
I actually felt there was
I actually felt there was extreme bitterness and anger in the blog post as well. As an infertile myself for the last several years I totally felt where you were coming from in writing the blog, but sending it to TLC without editing out the anger and sarcasm is not likely to make any changes. But who knows, they may add a good infertility show for us to watch. I sure hope so!
Do you really understand
Do you really understand infertility? Of course, we are angry and bitter but we also still have humor. Naomi's post is awesome, sarcastic and still able to laugh. I will pray for you, lady.
To this person above who
To this person above who wrote this---
"Though I understand your pain and anguish, but some of what you are spouting is anger, bitterness, and unforgivness, they may listen to your pleas if they weren't laced with this. I will be praying for you."
I strongly disagree with your comments. Haven't you read all the other posts that actually agree with Naomi's blog? I don't think you know what it's like to experience IF because if you did, you would agree with her. I would assume you want a baby considering you are visiting this website so why wouldn't you get it? Her post was not 'laced with anger," it's laced with sarcasm and humor. Try it sometime.
Why is there always someone
Why is there always someone who decides to do this? Are you infertile? Are you just stopping by to show how inconsiderate you are of other people's feelings? I will pray for YOU. Because infertiles have their right to feel that way... you think we want to see a show about a 40+ year old who has been knocked and have had 19 children? I think there should be more infertility awareness.. shows about adoption, surrogacy, the pain of IUI and IVF, the heart aches and everything in between. If you're IF and saying this, I'll pray for you harder. Infertiles aren't always bitter, but we deserve a chance to have a family too. The end.
That person seems so bitter
That person seems so bitter and angry!!!!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love the TLC shows but usually end up incredulous or bawling my eyes out at some point.
What I wouldn't give to see a couple of shows on Infertility. Maybe some people would be more understanding if they saw the day to day of what we will put ourselves through to have a slim chance for a child and the heartbreak we suffer along that road.
As private as I try to keep my struggles, I'd offer in a heartbeat if it meant more/better understanding from others
Wow, how about that person
Wow, how about that person up above who made the uncalled for comment show a little compassion for those going through something so horrible and trying to make light of a bad situation. It's so sad that people can't be understanding nowadays. Praying for more empathy and compassion in this world. I hope you never have to go through infertility, you wouldn't be able to handle it.
I love it...Im sharing your
I love it...Im sharing your blog with my mom...I find it therapeutic to laugh and be sarcastic about it...I also wonder why people that haven't been through IF feel they need to point out how wrong we are for feeling the way we do... Im more then willing to share my story of IF with anyone that will listen...Anyway, Thank you for the laugh
naomi's blog gives us one
naomi's blog gives us one of few places where we can let all of our frustration, anger, sadness, etc. all hang out, in the form of sarcasm, satire, poking fun, etc. while women with children can spend all day at the office or over lunch talking about what little johnny ate yesterday, or what the consistancy of his latest poopy diaper was, or how sore her boobs are from breastfeeding, etc...we typically can't just drop random comments in most social circles about the hot flashes we are getting from clomid, or the bazillion-th semen sample hubby is providing today for the bazillion-th test, etc. this is our community to share openly and have a "sisterhood" of sorts with women who know all too well our secret lives behind the brave, fake smiles. no one is forced to be a part of this blog following. if you don't like it, go find a forum that is more in check with your opinions. every hear the phrase "live and let live....??" try it.
As someone who struggled
As someone who struggled with infertility and was finally blessed with twins, I have to say this: Naomi, keep up the great work! Your blog hits very close to home, but never fails to crack me up. I hope TLC listens to you and does a show that will show all of the clueless, fertile people out there what we go though!
YES!!!! You said it girl!
YES!!!! You said it girl! The best part is that your suggestions for shows would actually be better than these dumb shows that TLC focuses on.
Love your PCOS and IVF suggestion. Althought, getting high on fertility drugs is awesome too!
The best laugh I've had in weeks!
LOVE THIS!!!! I think MTV's
LOVE THIS!!!! I think MTV's Teen Mom should be renamed also.... I'm open for suggestions on this =)
I just think there ought to
I just think there ought to be a sister show to Teen Mom for infertiles titled "I Wish I Got Knocked Up at 16."
You keep me sane Naomi. I
You keep me sane Naomi. I love your site:) Keep up the great work.
I love this letter. I loved
I love this letter. I loved TLC, but now the babies are overwhelming. I'm thinking we should all send our own letters to TLC for such IF shows. And as for that one post about being bitter. I appreciate all the prayers I can get. Even if I am angery, bitter, and unforgiving- I still try to keep hope. But if she wants to give us her prayers, let's take them! Maybe that's what we're missing in this whole TTC journey. Instead of baby dust we are needing a stranger's prayers. Can't hurt at least, right?
This. 100%.
This. 100%.
This is coming from a woman
This is coming from a woman who dealt with infertility, had 2 miscarriages and finally made the most heart-breaking, devastating decision to give up. Number one...I totally get everything Naomi is saying and find her very funny. Number two...I believe in the saying "you don't know a person until you've walked a mile in their shoes" and if someone hasn't been in my shoes, I can't expect them to understand my pain and suffering, therefore I try to be forgiving of that. Number three...I totally agree with everyone in that the pain of infertility needs to be talked about, because then MAYBE fertile people will at least have a glimmer of understanding of what we are going through.
You should send this to
You should send this to TLC. They really should create a show on infertility. There are so many shows on pregnancy - even TEEN pregnancy, who's bright idea was that! - so there should be a show on the other end of the spectrum. I would LOVE to document the troubles I've had TTC AND Adopt. Maybe things will change a little bit if it gets publicity.
SEND THIS TO TLC! Let's unite!
I am the one who wrote the
I am the one who wrote the comment everyone is attaching and for your information my intention was not to be rude or holier than thou. To those of you who thought that this was the case, PLEASE, do NOT automatically go to the negative, especially when its a Christian posting it. I really meant it, I know what its like to not be able to concieve, I also know what its like to lose 4, yes read it again FOUR of my children. May be TLC would benefit from shows from the other side, I know I would watch them. I didn't see any humor in what she was saying, all I saw was a broken heart and I felt for her.
Of course there's
Of course there's bitterness and rage in this post - there's bitterness and rage in infertility! I am Christian and infertile; I'm not angry at God but I am angry. I get jealous when I see pregnant women or babies. I'm working on it. It honestly helps me to know that I'm not alone, that other women get bitter and angry and jealous too. We're human, we're not perfect, regardless of our religious faith or lack thereof. I genuinely appreciate Naomi's honesty in sharing her struggles. God wants us to empathize with each other and bear one another's burdens.
Thank you, Naomi, for sharing so honestly with us. You're a gem.
And I'd subscribe to cable just to watch a TLC show about infertility!
Ah Naomi, I think the TLC
Ah Naomi, I think the TLC show should be called Journey to the Center if the Uterus...but then, I'm biased...
I've often told people that if we don't laugh then we'll cry and there's nothing better than a dose of irreverent humor to go along with infertility.
Pay no attention to the naysayers! Laugh and laugh often!
Naomi, you are my new found
Naomi, you are my new found hero! I say exactly what you've said in this every time I come across these shows!
Great post as always.
Great post as always. Though I have to say, I like the show "I didn't know I was pregnant" because it gives me hope that maybe, just maybe I am currently pregnant, its just that I don't know about it. I do wish there was more discussion on IF - on tv and in the real world.
Great email Naomi! I love
Great email Naomi! I love how you can make such a painful subject humourous, and it's all so true! I cringe every time I see that "19 kids and counting" show... Stop with the kids and the counting! The last premie should have been a sign to stop... and I've also wondered if she'd have one for me!! I haven't seen the surprise quints show, but seriously, if you use fertility drugs, there shouldn't be a surprise!
I had my 3rd IVF retrieval this week in hopes of someday having a child of our own and my friends find the whole process very interesting... They are always asking "what next"?! I've had so many tests, needles, retrievals, transfers, drugs etc. that I would think that a show about what I (and many others like me!!!) have been through would be more interesting than "I'm so fat I had no idea I was carrying twins"... It's very personal so I don't know if I'd like a camera following me around for all of the world (including my co-workers who I've managed to keep all of this a secret from) to see.... but I'm getting more open about it all.
Thanks for sharing your email and I LOVE your website! :D
I say bitter and angry
I say bitter and angry post. Infertility is not a funny subject.
Of course there's humor in
Of course there's humor in infertility! I joke that my husband is developing a pavlov's reaction to big needles. He thought for the longest time he was 'King of the mountain' because my rear end was propped so high on pillows. He probably looks for girlie magazines anytime he goes into a restroom now. I'm sure he will innocently ask the wrong person for a cup when he's going to the restroom....
Thank you Naomi for that
Thank you Naomi for that halarious post! I totally agree that we laugh to keep ourselves from crying. Infertility has been the most frustating and painful thing I have ever gone through. I just finished my first cycle of IUI and am praying that it worked and I just get so sick of hearing about people like "octomom" and "19 kids and counting". I too am a christian and that doesn't mean that we don't feel anger or hurt. I loved that one of our pastors said "God never promised our comfort". SO true! But I think that's why we have humor and others to go through it with.
I love it! TLC makes me
I love it! TLC makes me want to barf sometimes.
And "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"... they should change that to "I Should Have Known I Was in Denial." lol.
Then just don't watch TLC.
Then just don't watch TLC. *Problem solved*
BTW, stop spamming message boards. It's rude to just drop by and post your link in a community you are not a part of.

Reader comment: Richard Boese says,
Viacom says, "There is no question that YouTube and Google are continuing to take the fruit of our efforts without permission and destroying enormous value in the process (...) This is value that rightfully belongs to the writers, directors and talent who create it and companies like Viacom that have invested to make possible this innovation and creativity."Ryan says,
Do they really think watching a short clip on a 4inch embedded screen is going to rob anyone of their "value" input? YouTube is just about the best kind of advertising I know and I've bought a good number of DVDs off the back of viewing clips there.
Is Viacom even *worth* $1B? Their crappy programming sure isn't.Gerard Hughes says,
Since Viacom is sooo concerned about the "value that rightfully belongs to the writers, directors and talent," I'm wondering exactly how much of the 1 billion dollar lawsuit they are earmarking for "writers, directors and talent who create it." Just a guess here: none. Corporations love to opine on how piracy hurts the little guy even as the biggest threat to little guys everywhere would seem to be the giant corporations.ebenezer says,
In response to Ryan's comment "Is Viacom even *worth* $1B?" -- Viacom's market capitalization is currently approx. US$27.3 billion and in 2006, the company recorded revenues of US$11.5 billion. Link.

That which witnesses the chemical activity of the material brain and regards that activity as experience.
Hmm, not sure, but going on what I recall from a previous debate, I'd guess you're missing out a level of explanation for the sake of clarity. Obviously any chemical activity would be somehow witnessed 'from the inside', but I can't see how any 'genuine' experience could have a different nature (and therefore a different source) to the one we normally regard it as having, or how there could be no such thing as experience. Also, I wouldn't go along with the epiphenomenal implications of the term 'witnesses' - 'Witnessing' doesn't even count as living in mine or most people's books (though of course no living can be done if nothing outside the mind is witnessed first of all).
I suspect that a lot of materialist 'certainty' about the brain probably stems from the fact that conceiving of it in a way that respects 'a priori' evidence -i.e. that it's more a kind of junction box for mental activity than simply its source- would make it simply too complicated to understand rationally.
PadmaVonSamba wrote:mind doesn't take rebirth in samsara.
mind doesn't go anywhere.
it is samsara that keeps reoccurring (takes rebirth) over and over again in the mind.
- It's good to hear fresh perspectives that seem to fit well enough with experience on being read, but which one hadn't yet heard or conceived of _ _

Whoopie Pies
Preheat oven to 350°F
Two baking sheets lined with Silpats or parchment paper
Makes 8 to 10 sandwich cookies
1 cup plain soymilk
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Dutch process dark cocoa powder, sifted
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup margarine (such as Earth Balance)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
2 tbsp Vegan "sour cream"
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups confectioner's (powdered) sugar
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
3 tbsp plain soymilk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1. Cookies: In a small bowl, whisk together the soymilk and vinegar and set aside, allowing the mixture time to curdle. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2. Over in your stand mixer, cream together the margarine and both sugars, beating to ensure that the contents of the bowl are creamy and fully combined. Add the "sour cream" and mix again until smooth.
3. Returning to the now curdled soymilk, whisk in the vanilla. Beginning with the wet ingredients, alternately add them with the dry ingredients into your mixer. Scrape down the sides as necessary, and beat the mixture just enough to fully combine.
4. Use an ice cream scoop or measuring cup to drop 3 to 4 tablespoons of dough at a time onto the prepared baking sheets. Leave a good amount of space between each cookie, about 2 inches, allowing them room to spread a bit. Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, until they crackle slightly on top. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheets where they should firm up a bit more.
5. Filling: To make the filling, begin with the mixer on low and beat together the confectioner's sugar and shortening. Add the soymilk, and finally the vanilla. Once the sugar has become incorporated, turn the mixer up to high and whip for a good 2 to 3 minutes; this will incorporate more air, making for a lighter, fluffier filling.
6. Drop or pipe a healthy dollop of the crème mixture onto the flat side of one cooled cookie, and place a second cookie on top. Press down gently to bring the filling right out to the edge. Repeat this process with the remaining cookies and crème filling.

Fall 2008 – Special Edition: Your New, Higher FDIC Insurance Coverage
FDIC Launches New Campaign Promoting Deposit Insurance
The FDIC has teamed up with personal finance expert Suze Orman in a national public-awareness campaign to help consumers learn about the benefits and limitations of deposit insurance.
In September, the agency unveiled a series of public service announcements (PSAs) for television stations featuring Orman and FDIC Chairman Sheila C. Bair. Orman also appears in FDIC announcements for radio stations and in an advertisement for newspapers, magazines and billboards.
The promotions discuss the importance of keeping funds in insured accounts and knowing how FDIC insurance works. They also encourage Americans to visit myFDICinsurance.gov, a new FDIC Web site where you can watch the TV spots and use "EDIE the Estimator," our online deposit insurance calculator (see "EDIE" Makes It Easy: FDIC Internet Site Analyzes Your Insurance Coverage).
"While awareness of the FDIC is high, understanding of deposit insurance is not," said Chairman Bair in announcing the new campaign. "We want to encourage people to learn the basics and provide reassurance that, if they are within the coverage limits, their money is 100 percent safe."
Orman noted that she donated her time to the FDIC campaign "because I want everyone to go to EDIE the Estimator and follow the simple steps to make sure their money is 100 percent FDIC protected." Orman also appeared on major television shows to promote the benefits of federal deposit insurance and EDIE.
Also, in November, the FDIC began a Spanish-language campaign that highlights the safety of insured deposits and how to get more help and information from the agency.

My Cleaning Supply Us
Legal question about employers who use chemicals without safety data sheets!?
Recently, my employer (Fortune 500) had a special project for about 45 managers in the company. We were asked to clean a store from top to bottom. The company has provided us with normal cleaning chemicals used for cleaning daily (items with sheets). However, the company also supplied a product chemical known as "Goof Off, Goof Off, 1 and OFF2 Goof", which are all harsh chemicals. The company had us using this chemical, without providing gloves, masks and other safety equipment. The chemical causes irritation landfill and red skin that clears up after about a week, but I developed a dry cough and constant headaches. If you watch the Goof Off Chemicals You see, they recommend safety equipment mentioned above. What legal repercussions my business need for us to use this substance without sheets, and for not providing safety equipment?
you can always report to OSHA, but think you must go to the doctor and get these symptoms documented

here is the simple way that i have always done this. i fill out the form and then click file then print then on the name of the printer, i select adobe pdf and then it will "print" it and allow you to save the new pdf into whatever folder that you want. you wont be able to edit afterwards but the info is saved and you didnt have to do anything extreme. i dont know if it is a certain adobe that allows me to do this but it is what i do for a lot of docs.
Hi, I have a client who wants pdf's on their website to be filled in online and sent directly to the website owner. Is this possible?
Found this on another site and it helped me. I have Adobe Acrobat X and others in the office have regular Adobe Reader. They can now edit the forms I create and save them.
"If you are using Adobe Acrobat X to make the form, set all the fields as you want them, then click File, Save As, Reader Extended PDF, Enable Additional Features. The resulting PDF form can be saved when filled in, if opened in versions of Adobe Reader before XI."

Spirit Lake Committee Vows 'Severe' Consequences if Sioux Name Use DiscontinuedOne day after President Kelley urged the state to let UND retire the Fighting Sioux nickname, the Spirit Lake Sioux Nation lashes out.
One day after President Kelley urged the state to let UND retire the Fighting Sioux nickname, the Spirit Lake Sioux Nation lashes out.
The tribe says everyone who continues to act against its name by removing the Fighting Sioux nickname and logo should expect consequences far more severe than any sanctions UND claims it will suffer by keeping the name.
The statement from the tribe's Committee for Understanding takes Higher Ed Board President Grant Shaft to task for suggesting he believed Notre Dame's recent decision to affiliate with Hockey East - and not the N-C-H-C - was due in part to the ongoing nickname fight.
The tribe cites College Hockey News, which says it was the NCHC who chose not to admit Notre Dame due to an existing television contract.
The tribe says "the taxpayers of North Dakota deserve better from their leaders, who unfortunately appear to want to twist anything in their assault against our name."
"We cannot trust their word on any of the supposed sanctions our name may bring UND, especially in light of the statement made by Mr. Shaft."
Grant Shaft disagrees, saying the board has a considerable amount of credibility in the nickname debate and for the tribe to base its full opinion of the higher ed board on this one issue is baseless.
Shaft also says he thinks any school would consider UND's continued use of name and might choose not to schedule regular season competition if it isn't eliminated.

Bill Walker, agriculture marketing specialist for the New Jersey Department of Agriculture, said he believes the partnership between schools and local growers will strengthen.
"To me, the farm to school program is the future," he said.
New Jersey's farm to school program seeks to bring locally grown produce into schools, both to increase fresh produce consumption, but also to teach students about agriculture and nutrition, according to a letter on the program website from Beth Feehan, New Jersey Farm to School director.
"Farm to School is a three-legged stool: local procurement and foodservice contracting with an eye toward accountability; the emergence of school garden education and its impact on getting children to eat fruits and vegetables; and federal, state and districtwide policies created by and for schools," Feehan said in the letter.
Walker agrees that the program is important.
"We're trying to help these children double their intake of fresh fruits and vegetables, and since they are in school for 12 years we can really have a positive effect," he said.
Another benefit is the opportunity to source produce at a good cost to the school.
"Half the cost in most produce is the distribution, so if you don't have a lot of carrying costs growers can bring produce to the school and get a good price for it and everyone's happy," Walker said.
Foodservice opportunity
Foodservice companies can work with smaller operations through these programs to help keep costs down.
"We've seen some distribution companies start trying to take advantage of having these small, local farming outfits. They see this as a big opportunity," Walker said.
However, these programs also include the aspect of schools having their own garden areas for students to get even more hands-on experience.
"Every school has some sort of open area, and the more urban the area is the more important it is to have those raised beds," Walker said.
Walker says that with today's childhood obesity rates, the farm to school programs are crucial for educating students about fresh produce.
"Foodservice management companies are not only wanting to source fresh fruits and vegetables locally, but they encourage farm-to-school programs based upon teaching kids nutrition through the use of these gardens," Walker said.
The state sponsored an award for the Garden of the Year to be given to a school that participates in the program.

IN OFFICES, living rooms, cafes, cars and trains everywhere, smart technologies are proving us dumb. We are pressing when we should be tapping and swiping when we should be waving. We are uselessly pinching laptop screens to make the writing bigger, jabbing at stubborn desktop monitors with TV remotes, even trying to change TV channels with a mouse.
The cycle of anticipation, followed by annoyance then embarrassment at using the wrong gesture or movement occurs when the brain prematurely transfers a task from the frontal lobe (where it is learnt) to the more primitive basal ganglia, which handles "automatic" actions, says Ross Cunnington of the Queensland Brain Institute at the University of Queensland.
As the tide of digital devices gathers pace, so does the potential for disconnect between hand, eye and machine. Apart from Apple's new iPhone, new smartphones or tablet devices are imminent or just launched from Nokia, Motorola, Sony and Amazon, among others.
''I guess the problem now, with all these devices, is there are just so many different types,'' he said. ''It does put a big load on us'', especially ''unnatural movements'' which, because the physical movement is disconnected from its effect, are a cognitive step beyond ''natural'' gestures like picking up a stick.
Some of Dr Cunnington's research involves ''annoying'' participants by reversing the direction of a mouse control so the cursor moves opposite to the expected direction, so up instead of down, or left instead of right. Happily, he says, the brain adapts quickly: within a couple of minutes for the up-down reversal, or 10 minutes for the ''much harder'' left to right.
When learning how to manage a new machine, all the action is in the frontal lobe. ''People use a lot of visual control … watching their hands, watching the object of the goal they are trying to achieve,'' Dr Cunnington said.

Bryan Harvey was living every Little League dad's dream on Tuesday afternoon, watching from the back of the room while his son — the Orioles' first pick in the June draft — was introduced to the media at Oriole Park.
Hunter Harvey, the 22nd overall selection, and Josh Hart, the Orioles' supplemental first-round choice, took part in the brief news conference to announce their first professional contracts, both looking every bit like the fresh-faced high school players they were just a few weeks ago…both accompanied by families bursting with pride.
It's entirely possible that neither one of them really understood all the implications of that heady experience, but Hunter's dad certainly did.

- Orioles top draft picks Harvey, Hart are signed, eager to deliver
- Chen says he is pain free, hoping for quick rehab stint in minors

"We've talked about that," Bryan said. "It's not going to be like it is right now where you're hearing everything you want to hear and everybody's really nice. This turns into a job after today. It's a grind. It's a challenge."
He is speaking from experience…a lot of it. Bryan Harvey, if the name hasn't already burst forth from your baseball memory bank, led the American League in saves for the then-California Angels in 1991 and was one of the top closers in the game for a five-year period from 1989-1993. He wasn't a high draft pick — he was signed out of a tryout camp — but he came up through the Angels system and had a very solid career in Southern California and later as a member of the expansion Florida Marlins.
So, we're not talking about some embittered major league wannabe. Baseball really was very, very good to him, but he knows what it takes and he knows how good you've got to be and he has made sure his second son to sign a pro baseball contract is headed off to rookie ball with his eyes wide open.
"It does seem all good from a distance," Bryan said. "We talked about how you're going to be away from home, how things are going to be pretty tough — especially mentally, which to me is the hard part. We can prepare our bodies physically for what we're going to go through, but the mental part of always being away and when things go bad, you're there by yourself. It can get tough, so we've talked quite a bit about that."
If only every prospect had that kind of lifelong preparation, which is probably the reason so many sons of major leaguers make it to the big leagues.
Of course, it doesn't always work out that way. Hunter's older brother, Kris, was a second-round draft choice out of Clemson University in 2005, but has had a star-crossed minor league career and — at 29 — is running out of time to reach the majors.
Hunter Harvey looks more like a kid who just stopped by the DMV to pick up his learner's permit than a top prospect who can drive a ball through the strike zone at more than 90 miles per hour. He looks so young, in fact, that one of the first questions posed to his dad was whether there was any reluctance to let him sign out of high school.
Apparently not.
"We kind of had a plan," Bryan said. "This is what we wanted to shoot for. We thought last year, when the velocity got up to 91, 92, 94, that he had a chance to be drafted. And he wants to play professional baseball, so he's very fortunate to go in the first round and we'll see what happens."
Hunter will start out with the Orioles' rookie team in Sarasota, which is quite a distance from the family home in Catawba, N.C., but not so far that his father can't pop in and check on his progress once in awhile.
"I will go and watch," Bryan said. "I don't think anybody knows him as well as I do. I don't think I'm going to have to do anything. Obviously, I'm going to watch and try to give my input and help him as much as I possibly can, but now he's part of the Baltimore Orioles and I know they have the people in place to do the job that needs to be done."

A Place to Call Home
We at Heritage Signature Homes take pride in placing our customers satisfaction above all else. Our goal is to build you the home of your dreams while giving you an enjoyable, learning experience that we hope you will want to do it again one day. All of our employees and subcontractors are trained professionals and among the best in the business. The people you will meet during your adventure in home building are here to serve you and to help understand every step of the process. No question is a foolish one. We truly are here to help.
Who We Are
Paul Johnson founded Heritage Carpentry, Inc. in 2001 and has since built a team of over 40 top notch union carpenters who can build just about anything out of wood. The carpenters honed in their skills building houses for Paul and others, along with numerous commercial projects and multi-family dwellings. The Heritage Carpentry name stands alone in the Rockford area as the top union carpentry contractors - we have references and testimonials to prove it.
As Paul's reputation as a creative builder of quality homes grew, it made sense to form a separate organization to administer the home building process. Thus, Heritage Signature Homes, Inc. came into being.
Having direct control of the carpentry work gives Heritage Signature Homes an edge up over other home builders on quality, costs and safety. Roughly half of the work that goes into building a home is done by our carpenters – it's nice to know they will be on the job site when you need them to be.
In 2005, Paul was joined by his friend and associate from a past employer, Kurt Taylor. A CPA with an MBA in Entrepreneurship and 16 years of finance experience in the construction industry, Kurt's knowledge of internal controls and growth strategies was the last piece of the puzzle Paul needed to take his business to the next level. The fact that Kurt had general contracted and built a couple of large custom homes on the side was also a plus.
After joining forces, Paul and Kurt added Heritage Concrete, LLC., a full service union concrete contractor, to their group of companies to further enhance their desire to have better control of the building process from the ground up.
Together and with the rest of the Heritage staff, Paul and Kurt make a formidable team. Unlike the larger homebuilders, they are personally involved in every project Heritage Signature Homes takes on. With the big builders, you'll be lucky to meet the local area managers let alone the owners. At Heritage, Paul and Kurt are always available and at your service.
