Sandi Thom: This Ol' World (single)Thom's career up til now has been built on one incredibly annoying song, media manipulation and clever management. Some things never change.
Changing musical genres as often as most people change their underwear, Thom has now turned her attention to the blues (yeh... it is as bad as it sounds) and called in the considerable talents of Joe Bonamassa for this the first single from her forthcoming 3rd studio album, Merchants and Thieves. One real big problem here though, she can't sing the blues. The voice just can't do it. The music and lyrics are cliched, contrived and ultimately forgettable. If Little Britain did a parody of a female blues singer it would pretty much sound like this. Bonamassa tries his best to rescue it with his guitar twiddling but to no avail.
Hopefully this record will reward Thom with what she deserves... obscurity. Can't wait for the album.

When developing an online course, either as a standalone or as part of a blended learning programme that includes a face-to-face component, it is important to consider how that online component will be used by the student. As you prepare for 2017, think about these five considerations for designing a course online.
1. Integration and purpose
Consider the following questions to determine the purpose of your site.
What is your site going to achieve? (How will it add value for you and your students?)
To what extent will your site work with, replace or extend existing characteristics of how your module operates, or will it offer the opportunity to do some things that are completely new?
As a starting point you might consider the following purposes and related elements:
- Online presence (Minimum dataset)
- Class management (Minimum dataset + assignments + notices)
- Learner support (student access to notes and/or individual support resources)
- Teaching and learning (online activities and interactions)
2. Selecting the right tool for the job
In both Moodle and Blackboard there are many different tools that can be used to support your students, but it is important to choose the right tool for the task. The links below will take you to handy guides of some of the tools available in each of the Learning Management Systems. Please note that these lists are not exhaustive but should get you started thinking about what tools you want to use.
Moodle 2 tool guide for teachers
3. Selecting the resource mix
As you go through your course, look at the resources and activities you have currently available for your students and consider this question:
What are the pros and cons of the resources I have made available?
As you think about this question it may be worth considering the following:
Your responsibilities for :
- protection of the individual
- respect for copyright
- source acknowledgement
Sources of help available including:
- Library site and liaison librarians
- Education Unit Staff including Education Advisors and eLearning Facilitators
- Experienced colleagues
4. Some key site design questions
Look at your site from the point of view of a student. In fact, get a colleague whose opinion you trust to view your course page as a student and think about the following questions:
- What do the students need to do?
- What tools will enable them to do it, either individually or together?
- What resources will they need to call on? Which of these will I provide, which will I "help" them find and which do they need to search out?
- What instructions or guidance do I need to build around using these?
- What alternatives or "extras" might be helpful to subsets of the students?
- How can I use the tools available to make my life easier?
- How do I get feedback from the students to inform how things need to change next time?
5. Degrees of flexibility for purpose
Finally, remember that all sites do not have to operate the same way but the site design must be purposeful and that purpose must be visible.
An effective site achieves its purpose for both staff and students.

Rich Hill Jersey
, Texas (AP) — Doc Edwards, a major league catcher who went on to manage the Cleveland Indians for three seasons in the 1980s, has died. He was 81.His death in San Angelo was announced by his family through longtime friends. Other details were not disclosed.Edwards spent more than a half century in baseball. He succeeded Pat Corrales as manager of Cleveland, where in 1962 he began his major league career as a player. He managed the Indians for the 1987-89 seasons
, finishing with a record of 173-207. Earlier, he was a coach for Cleveland, as well as Philadelphia and the New York Mets.He played five years in the big leagues, mostly with Cleveland and Kansas City. He also played for the New York Yankees and Phillies. He batted .238 for his career
Starlin Castro Jersey
, with 15 home runs and 87 RBIs.Howard Rodney Edwards was born in Red Jacket, West Virginia. His nickname came from his time as a Navy medic. Tim Tebow's baseball season is likely over.According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Tebow "broke the hamate bone in his right hand swinging the bat this weekend." He is scheduled for surgery Tuesday and is likely out for the season, per Schefter.The 30-year-old was hitting .273 with six home runs and 36 RBI in 84 games for the Binghamton Rumble Ponies
, the Double-A affiliate of the New York Mets.Tebow's numbers were good enough to get him onto the Eastern League All-Star roster, and manager Warren Schaeffer of the Double-A Hartford Yard Goats told Zach Braziller of the New York Post that he was impressed with Tebow's development on the diamond:"I saw him last year at [Single-A] Columbia. He's come a really long way. He's a tough out right now. We had a really tough time against Tim Tebow. He hits fastballs well. He's a strong kid. His approach has gotten a lot better. He's spitting on pitches now he wasn't early on this year. You can tell he works hard."Before, you could beat him with a lot of stuff. You beat him hard in, beat him soft away. He had a quite a few holes [in his swing] earlier on. Now the holes have gotten smaller and smaller."Tebow played well enough that a September call-up to the majors wasn't out of the question. The Mets sit at 40-56
Kyle Barraclough Jersey
, last place in the NL East and 14 games behind the first-place Philadelphia Phillies, leaving them little chance of getting into the playoff conversation.As the Mets played out the string in September, Tebow might have been a fun call-up for the team to generate some buzz late in the year. However, it appears that plan will be put on hold until next year.

The guidance, released last month for farms that have more than 3,000 egg-laying chickens, purportedly aims to prevent salmonella and other foodborne illnesses by isolating chickens from cats, rats, flies, and wild birds—even though no evidence exists showing them to be of significant risk at spreading salmonella. A 2010 article in the Atlantic Monthly stated that all but one outbreak of foodborne illness in the US since 1995 originated at industrial factory farms.
The FDA guidance suggests that farmers must cover their outdoor pastures with either roofing or netting, or use noise cannons to scare away wild birds. Perhaps it has escaped FDA that noise cannons would also scare the chickens? Or that putting a roof over a multi-acre pasture is not only cost-prohibitive, but would prevent rain and sun from reaching the living things in the pasture? FDA also advocates walls around the pasture, to prevent mice, rats, and cats from entering, and then put a roof over it. That's right—walls and roofing. In other words, they want the chickens to be kept in a building! This completely contradicts what "free-range" is supposed to be about: they can be cage-free, but not outdoors.
The problem, of course, is that FDA is describing the commonplace practice where farmers house their birds inside, giving them access to tiny porches that only 1% to 3% of the chickens can use at a time—if there are any porches. Although eggs labeled "organic" must allow birds outdoor access, these small porches qualify as outdoor access, according to the USDA. Sadly, this is the industry standard free-range hens; the standards for "cage-free" are even less demanding.
"Free-range" in USDA-speak certainly does not mean "pastured." There is a world of difference between an indoor hen that eats feed and never sees the sun, and an outdoor hen that finds part of its own dinner by scratching in the dirt for bugs and worms.
Pastured eggs are more nutritious. In addition, the Pew Commission has concluded that industrial-scale animal production poses "unacceptable" risks to public health and the environment, while subjecting billions of animals to "severe distress." Their report states:
Food safety is linked to the health of the animals that produce the meat, dairy and egg products that we eat. In fact, scientists have found modern intensive confinement production systems can be stressful for food animals, and that stress can increase pathogen shedding in animals.
In addition, researchers reported that workers at Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) are more likely to harbor multi-drug-resistant MRSA in their noses than workers at antibiotic-free, free-range farms.
An example of the public health risk posed by industrial scale farms is the recent outbreak of the rare foodborne illness cyclospora. Since late June, 466 people in fifteen states have taken ill. The FDA announced on August 2 that the illnesses in Iowa and Nebraska were linked to bagged salads from a Mexican subsidiary of Taylor Farms, which were sold to Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants. Many experts believe that the infections in the other thirteen states must also come from Taylor Farms, since cyclospora is rare in the US. Most of the 1,100 annual cases of cyclospora in the US afflict US residents returning from overseas.
Not only are industrial scale farms less healthy for workers, consumers, and the local environment, but the mass production of food that is widely distributed makes it very difficult to trace the cause of foodborne illnesses, as food may change hands many times between the farm and the dinner table. In the case of the cyclospora epidemic, investigators still don't know the cause of the illness in thirteen states, and the investigation may "take months."
The New Zealand dollar dropped after the world's largest dairy exporter, New Zealand-based Fonterra, reported on August 3 thatit had shipped products contaminated with botulism. The dairy products were exported to Australia, China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Saudi Arabia in sport drinks and infant formula. If left untreated, 60% of botulism cases are fatal.
The organic, locally grown model that ANH-USA advocates does not pose these problems.
Despite the evidence that CAFO farms make outbreaks of foodborne illnesses inevitable, there is no move to limit or reform them. Instead, as we recently reported, the USDA is proposing an "overhaul" that would reduce the number of inspectors by 40%, process more chickens in less time, and use more and stronger chemicals to wash filthy chickens who lived in too-crowded conditions with thousands of other birds.
The USDA is now reviewing research that indicates that these new and stronger chemicals are actually masking the presence of salmonella, essentially outwitting the testing process. Although USDA records show that salmonella rates in tested chickens have dropped by half, the number of consumers sickened by salmonella has remained the same. And poultry inspectors have reported suffering from asthma, severe respiratory problems, burns, rashes, irritated eyes, and sinus problems, in reaction to the new chemicals.

The pillow has a long history that extends back to the Mesopotamian city state era (7ooo BCE) but it was the Egyptians that put pillows on the map so to speak. They considered the head to be sacred and pillows were lavished with decorations fitting the job of holding this important body part. Pillows were also a status symbol in Ancient Egypt.
As sophisticated dyes and sewing techniques came into use pillow design became an art form and they were prized commodities first in China and Persia and later in Medieval Europe. With the industrial revolution and the mass production of materials, pillows became more accessible to the average person.
Pillows are not always those soft, fluffy things that the word might conjure up for us. Traditional Chinese pillows are often hard boxes made of stone, wood or metal because it was believed that soft pillows robbed one's body of energy and vitality. In medieval Japan, noblewomen had elaborate hairdos that required customized pillows. To protect the fancy hairdos pillows were constructed of wood that cushioned the back of the neck and let the hair hang free. Not orthopedic consults in those days! Until the 18th century it was believed that sleeping was best accomplished sitting up so bolsters and pillows were a necessity for good health.
We are familiar with feathers, fiberfill or foam but there's more variety out there. Traditional fillings were straw, feathers or down. In Asia buckwheat is a common filling and the pillows are smaller, while in India cotton is used . Then there are pillows that are filled with lavender, herbs etc. that are touted to improve your well being.
Some people like their pillows on the funny side. Check these out.
Then there are pillows from different countries and antique pillows too rich for my pocketbook or any practical use.
I love textiles and decorative pillows are akin to an art form in my house . My walls and furniture are usually neutral, unassuming colours so I express my wild side with pillows.
modern, geometric in satin
psychedelic and mesmerizing
crochet raffia with dainty buttons, graphic linen
crewel work with circles
satin, linen and shag, spring yellow and green, my latest treats
cut velvet and plaid satin in my favourite colour
They lift me up, inspire the use of texture in my art work, support my back, provide a topic for conversation, add a little luxury...
Are there pillows in your life?

Then after a minute my seven year old Stephanie also said "Mom can I log in to YouTube? She ask permission since I used my Google account to registered her name to Superbook to watch her favorite Bible story cartoon show. I wonder if my kids are not disciplined to ask permission to use Internet at home or if I am not aware of them using wifi to log in Facebook or YouTube.
|My Stephanie and her favorite site.
Discipline your child
It comes from the verse in the Bible Proverbs 22:6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.
Every mother or parents would agree that they want their children to be safe in using internet but how can we do that if we cannot totally guard our kids 24/7 using safe internet or safe website?
Disciplining your child using Internet connection is one way to f protect him.
- Give him or her the right time in using computer or gadget at home. After school homework is more convenient so they can also learn to prioritize school first. Weather you see or not their assignment, ask their decision too if its OK to them to open computer or gadgets. Remind them of their school works like quizzes or spelling to memorize or recitation that needs to study first. In doing so, you offer them free will to do what is more important with their time.
- Teach him or her to ask permission in using Internet. It is OK to teach kids to ask. My house, my rules! Not that you became authoritarian, but setting rules in your house makes kids think first before doing so. Children can learn how to obey your rules like simply asking permission to do something in your home like using internet, like teaching them to ask if they can watch television. I don't know when it started to set this rules at my house but kids simply ask my permission to open television and wifi. Maybe they seen that i am not a television or web person. Simple rules can rule and you will see it works.
- Tell them that you need to see the websites that they need to open. With right explanation on why you need to see their prospect site, photo or video will mark to kids that you have control over it. Explain to them that you need to see it too because you want them to be safe. And if its not good, explain to your child immediately that the site, the picture or the video is not good for him or her. I once told that kids are bright. When you thought that they don't know, they know. You cannot hide things from children, they know good and bad, so it is more okey if you will explain to them right away the things they don't need to see or know.
- Teach your child to be careful on the Internet. Once your child started to brows Internet or starting to use Facebook, remind them of whats good and bad post. I always tell to my daughter to watch out of the posts on Facebook, especially those pictues of adult content, videos of harassment, bad words, secular songs, bad jokes among others. Tell them that don't just post or click. Think twice before posting and think before you click likes.
- Safeguard your Internet connection. Gladly there is a sites now where parents can safeguards the Internet activity of children like the Norton Family and KuruPira WebFilter to help you monitor and control your child's activity over the Internet.

Best Sunscreen Lotion for oily, acne prone, and sensitive skin
The sun is probably the biggest offender of the skin. Long term exposure to to UV rays of the sun without adequate protection can lead to many skin problems such as sun spots and aging spots, wrinkles, and skin aging.
One of the best ways to protect yourself from the sun is to wear sunscreen lotion. Wearing sunscreen lotion on a daily basis is an essential step in your skin care routine.
Why some sunscreen products may be bad for your skin
But if you have acne prone and sensitive skin, you must be careful on the types of sunscreen lotions you use. Some of the sunscreen lotions in the market are greasy, oily, can clog the pores, and cause skin sensivity or make your acne problem worse.
Well, finding the right product for your skin is no easy task either as there are so many brands of sunscreen lotion products out there. The active sunscreen ingredients that are known to cause skin irritation and breakouts include avobenzone, benzophenones, octyl methoxycinnamate, oxybenzone, and many others.
As most Dermatologists and skin care specialists recommend, perhaps the best active sunscreen ingredients that are gentle for the skin and offer good protection from both UVA and UVB rays are titanium dioxide and zinc oxide.
However, it is not a guarantee that sunscreen products with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide would not cause skin problems as everybodys skin is different and may react differently to different substances and ingredients.
The best way to deal with this issue is to use proven products that others have had success with and to experiment yourself.
The best sunscreen lotion products for oily, sensitive, and acne prone skin
Here are the top sunscreen lotion products for oily, sensitive and acne prone skin based on customers experiences and reviews. These products have the highest rating for its quality and for not causing skin irritations or acne breakouts. As such, these sunscreen products are ideal to use if you have oily, sensitive, and acne prone skin.

This is the highest rated sunscreen lotion for oily, sensitive, and acne prone skin, based on reviews from users on makeupalley.com. This lightweight, gentle and calm lotion effectively block UVA and UVB and doesnt clog the pores, irritate the skin, or cause breakouts.
It also absorbs quickly and easily. It is also an excellent product to use for to prevent aging and to treat sun spots and aging spots.
Customer Reviews

the drop of a hat, and now that I am getting - ahem - a bit older, I also

can't get enough of it. I still try other products and brands, but I
always come back to this. It's lightweight, non-greasy, non-oily, protects well, and

20's, oily, acne-prone skin, and I have not broken out or had
any irritation. I also use the C-cleanser--I love the whole C-line."

Meet The Pets Events
Richardson Humane Society holds weekly Meet The Pets (MTP) events every Saturday. In addition to our weekly MTP events, we occasionally hold additional special events at other times. Our normal hours are 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
For exact details and locations of our Meet The Pets events, please see our events page.
Our Meet The Pets events are a great time for you to meet the pet that you are interested in. Most pets listed as available on our main pets page will be at our adoption events, however, we cannot guarantee that the pet you are interested in will be at a given event.
Our application form is available for you to fill out at our Meet The Pets events, however, to speed things up you may wish to fill the application form in before hand and send it to us by email. Please bring a copy with you as well, in case we can't find the copy you sent.
Email Address For Adoption Applications: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Click here for our adoption application – MS Word Format or PDF Format.
Please note that Richardson Humane Society only adopts pets to families within the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Adoption Process
When visitors arrive at our Meet The Pets events, they are asked to:
Ask for an application and completely fill it out. If you previously submitted the adoption application, ask that it be retrieved from our files.
Sign the Sign-In Sheet. The next available counselor will review your application with you and answer your questions. You will have an opportunity to visit with the pet if it is there that day.
Some pets will have multiple adoption applicants, and all applications are reviewed at the end of the event to determine the best match for each pet. When an application is selected for the next phase (home visit), contact is made by 6 p.m. the next business day. If you are not contacted regarding the pet you have selected, please continue to check our website for other adoptable pets. So many are in need.
Please keep an open mind and an open heart. We know you care! Don't despair if the pet you wanted is already adopted or better suited to another home. Pets are matched with the home best suited to the animal to ensure both adopter and pet have a lasting relationship! Your application will be kept on file for 3 months so another suitable pet might be found. Keep checking for new pet listings for one that may be a good match for you.
Please remember that EVERY RHS ADOPTION SAVES TWO LIVES: The adopted pet will have a safe, caring permanent home, and another space becomes available in a foster home to rescue a homeless pet from needless euthanasia or pain and suffering from exposure, human abuse and neglect, disease, or starvation.
Adoption Fee
Our adoption fee is $225 for dogs and $125 for cats. Your adoption fee helps defray veterinary expenses while your pet was in our care. Your pet will be neutered, microchipped, current on shots, heartworm tested and treated if necessary; and started on heartworm preventative. Adoption fees are payable in cash or by check to RHS.
Adoption Criteria
RHS places its rescued pets in homes in which all pets are spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations, current on heartworm preventative, and kept primarily indoors (cats 100% indoors) as part of the family.
All adopters must be at least 19 years old.
RHS verifies veterinary records on all pets currently residing in the home, all pets currently owned, and all pets owned in the past 5 years. RHS also verifies that pets are allowed on rental property.
Upon receipt of the complete application, applicants are interviewed by an adoption counselor at our Meet The Pets events.
RHS conducts a home visit prior to all adoptions.
Because our application-review process includes a home visit by our volunteers, we place our foster pets within a 60-mile radius of Richardson, Texas. We appreciate your understanding and hope that, if you live outside our service area, you will consider adopting a pet from a rescue group or shelter in your area.

Statistics reveal that over 50% of cases of cancer are caused by lifestyle, and the most important lifestyle factor that can lead to cancer is the food and drink people consume regularly. Here are some of the top cancer-causing foods that should be avoided:
- Genetically Modified Foods (GMOs). This is a rapidly growing industry and it affects a range of foods that people consume regularly. Thousands of products have a GMO listing on the label. People should read food labels and look for the "GMO-free labels" before buying their food.
- Grilled meats may be delicious but, when cooked, these foods (particularly processed foods such as hot dogs, etc.,) release carcinogenic, heterocyclic aromatic amines. If the food is "well done," the molecular and chemical structure of that meat is changed.
- Farmed fish. About 60% of salmon is farmed, being treated and fed with pesticides, antibiotics, mercury, dioxins and various other carcinogenic chemicals. Their diet also reduces the amount of omega-3 that's supposed to be in fish, so people don't get the high amount they think they are getting.
- Refined white flour is a common processed food ingredient. However, recent studies show that the utilization of refined carbohydrates boosts the risk of breast tumors by 220%. Other high glycemic foods are also dangerous, since they increase the amount of glucose in a person's body, and this boosts the spread and growth of cancer cells.
- Refined sugars can cause insulin spikes, and this may increase the growth of tumorous cells. Cakes, cereals, cookies, biscuits, candies, pies, sauces and other similar foods contain high fructose corn syrup and/or many other refined sugars, all of which increase the risk of getting cancer.
- Sodas and carbonated drinks are full of sugars (including high fructose corn syrup), dyes, aspartame, colorings and chemicals. These ingredients all provide nutrition to cancerous cells and ferment the body, whist providing no nutrients at all.
- Smoked, pickled and salted foods contain preservatives, including nitrates, which give them a longer shelf life. These additives accumulate in the body and can eventually cause damage to cells, eventually leading to cancer. Smoked foods are cooked at high temperatures, and then the nitrates turn into nitrites, which are even more dangerous.
- Canned foods. The cans in which processed foods are placed in are lined with chemicals so they seem appealing and fresh. However, these same chemicals can cause cancer. People must read food labels and choose cans with no preservatives or chemicals in the cans' linings.
- Fruit. Organic fruit is the best choice. Non-organic fruit is generally contaminated with various harmful pesticides and fertilizers. Few people are aware of this, but even sewage can be sometimes used to fertilize fields in the United States. Atrazine is a pesticide banned in Europe, but it is used in the U.S. It's a weed killer and is also associated with severe health issues including cancer, reproductive capabilities and other problems. Normal fruit is also subjected to hormones and chemicals to make it bigger. About 98% of apples have harmful pesticides and chemicals. Grapes, strawberries and oranges are sitting at 90%. And even by washing the fruit, you won't be able to eliminate all of the pesticides.
If this list will make you think before you buy, it will definitely help reduce the incidence of cancer and many other health problems.

What Kind of Bankruptcy Law Company should you choose?
I Have Decided To File Bankruptcy, What Kind of Bankruptcy Lawyer Should I Hire?
When looking for a law firm there are certain important things to consider. We'll assume you're seriously looking for a good lawyer to help you through your bankruptcy.
We need to first of all consider the fees that different law firms charge. This is often the very first consideration people have when hiring a lawyer. Although it's important to make sure you're not paying more than you need to, it's more often than not a mistake to hire solely on price.
Before deciding whether the cost of hiring a lawyer is going to be right for you, you will need to factor in several considerations. Most debt -relief firms will accept a flat fee and you should ask yours whether this is the case with his firm. Also it's a good idea to ask what the representation covers and what will be regarded as extras. Whatever happens, you need to know your general costs to file before hiring.
The experience of your lawyer is an important consideration and whether he has completed enough filings to be a good fit for you. An expert needs to be board certified in helping bankruptcy consumers file for debt relief through federal bankruptcy. being board certified means that the lawyer has completed a pretty vigorous qualification process, but someone who is not board certified doesn't necessarily mean they can't do the job. You need to decide what is most important for you.
Attorneys who are freshly qualified might not be the correct fit for your bankruptcy needs. However, exclusive bankruptcy experience for many years, even without board certification might qualify a good lawyer. An effective representative for you in your bankruptcy would be a lawyer with a solid track record and verifiable experience.
You also have to consider how accessible your law firm will be. Attorneys not calling clients back can be a big problem. You call, you email, you even visit the office with no response or availability to speak with the attorney or someone who can help you with your case.
You also have to remember that you need to hire a CONSUMER attorney. You need experience in dealing with members of the public and not businesses as these two different types of attorneys are very different from each other. There are two specific types of filings that you need to make sure your lawyer has experience in; chapter 7 and chapter 13. If they are most used to dealing with business filings then they are not suitable for your needs.
You need to be comfortable with your law company as you will be with your lawyers for a great deal of time. Look at the atmosphere in their offices to make sure they are organized. They should NOT be pushy, rush for a signature and then move you out the door. There are certain types of high-volume law firms called "bankruptcy mills" in the industry. These firms usually have a single method that they try to fit to all their clients. They have sloppy service since they can't alter their systems effectively. They can provide very unethical advice that can often land their clients in trouble with the court and leave you dissatisfied. Don't fall for this trap.
There will be tell-tale signs at your very first meeting if you're dealing with a high-volume, low-quality law firm. If you get the contract shoved in front of you even before you get a chance to sit down and your case manager assigned to you the you know you've found one. Careful consideration needs to be given to every single case before you should be asked for your signature and your financial situation needs to be carefully analyzed. Which debts you can discharge and what ones can't, which of your assets can be exempted, and whether or not bankruptcy is right for you.
Please make an objective decision, but also listen to your gut! Just as important as anything else are lawyer and staff bedside manners. The people you're dealing with during your bankruptcy need to be very comfortable for you. You'll need to feel like you're being listened to in confidence since you'll be speaking to people about some very sensitive matters. Your law team is your bankruptcy team and you don't want to regret any part of the hiring process. Book your free consultation with us TODAY to see if we can help you! (610) 387-6001

Habitat for Humanity has strong ties to Carlisle

by Elise Lehotsky
Started by the Fuller family of Georgia, Habitat for Humanity (HFH)has been in operation since 1976. Since then, Habitat has helped to build or repair over 600,000 decent, affordable houses, serving more than three million people worldwide. Habitat for Humanity of Greater Lowell (HFHGL) started its work in 1991, and since then has built 31 homes, serving 131 people, not counting current projects. They also planned out ten critical repairs to veterans' residences between 2012-2013. Two Carlisle residents currently sit on the board of HFHGL. Andy Barlow, who serves on the Strategic Planning/Board Development Committee started volunteering on builds in 1998. He joined the board in 2004 and in this time served as Vice President, and President of the board. It turns out that H4H gives back to its volunteers—according to the HFHGL website, Andy met his wife while volunteering. Jim Saltonstall, who retired after 40 years with the Middlesex School in 2008, is the current Vice President of the Board. His experience at Middlesex as teacher, coach, dorm head, and most recently business manager have heavily bolstered his ability to serve the HFHGL board.

Several other Carlislians have volunteered through Habitat. I spoke with Carlisle resident John Redding to discuss Carlisle's relationship with HFHGL. John is the First Religious Society (FRS) coordinator for Habitat, and says that the strongest leadership for volunteer involvement from Carlisle consists of current residents Bill Mersch, Ernie Huber and former Carlisle resident George Bishop. Bill Mersch is former President of the HFHGL and now serves as the Chair of the Habitat Interfaith Committee. Ernie and George (who now lives in Groton) have been involved as Habitat coordinators for FRS for years and they invited John to participate and keep the connection to Habitat strong.

If this is Tuesday, it must be Lowell
Ann James started building furniture when she retired, describing it as a very solitary hobby. She found that volunteering for builds provided a great community. She began volunteering with the Merrimack HFH five years ago, and recalled that her volunteering became as frequent as Tuesdays in Lowell, Thursdays in Lawrence, and Saturdays in Bedford. She mentioned that she, Bob Englehart and Ralph Anderson often carpooled to sites.
When the Mosquito caught up with Ralph he said that he has been involved with HFH since his retirement (over 15 years now), and has done work on Lowell, Fitchburg, Lawrence and Merrimack projects. Ralph has swung hammers, cleared trees, supervised sites and served on the Board of Directors for HFHGL. Something he likes about builds is that there are always people on site who know what they are doing, but volunteers learn a lot about how to build when they get involved.
According to Ralph, Lawrence Habitat has been working on the repurposing of an old convent. Nuns struck a deal with Habitat on the building and land, under the condition it would not be ripped down. Ralph described it as a four-story brick building that will be converted into ten, 1,500 sq-ft. condos. It's been several years in the making, because it was necessary to gut the building, reinforce certain structural elements and add insulation.
Eight houses for eight families

The most recently completed project Carlisle volunteers have been involved with is in Bedford. An old farmhouse came on the market and the owner wanted to donate it. Bedford was able to repurpose the land under 40B regulation. They broke ground on the cul-de-sac four years ago, and after 4,000 volunteers and 50,000 building hours, they ended up with eight houses for eight families. The estimated value of the housing project is approximately 2.5 million dollars, though the actual cost was a fraction of this thanks to volunteers and donations. The next local build project starting up is on Rock Street in Lowell. Construction has begun on four out of ten houses after breaking ground back in September.
John says "seeing people being committed for other people is really impressive," and that there is "depth of talent coupled with social consciousness and commitment," when you're on a build. He describes those involved as good quality people from all walks of life, because there are so many aspects of a build that take place, ranging from hammering nails, planting gardens, selecting potential families and organizing volunteers.
FRS has had a long-standing relationship with HFHGL, and through its Social Action Committee has raised money through events such as the Holiday Greens Sale, has provided crews for local projects and has helped plan builds and repairs. A year ago, a group of volunteers from Carlisle went to Cambodia to work on 25 houses in a two-week period, and this past fall, a group went to Nepal for a build.

Visiting the ReStore
Regardless of their financial background, all home owners perpetually need to do work on the family home. For that matter, you could probably stand to clean out your attic, your basement or your entire house. Most everyone does, but it is tough to get rid of the perfectly good things that clutter our homes. You have grown fond of these items, and if you just used them more often, they would be worth holding on to. The answer lies in bringing your well-loved and gently used items to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Lowell's ReStore, the newest and largest ReStore in the region, located at 257 Boston Road in Billerica. A former Ford dealership, the store facilitates a space for donation and acquisition of everything from building materials, to furniture, to clothing and shoes and beyond.
The store is impressive. It appears to run as a machine, a warm, friendly machine. There are some really fun items in the store, including a fully functioning upright piano, matching blue beds shaped like race cars and endless numbers of fascinating lighting fixtures. The store is managed by Suzanne Marlowe, who not only does a great job running the store smoothly, but goes the extra mile by posting repurposing ideas at every corner, giving new life to older items and sharing handy ideas to try in your home. John Redding tells a story about ReStore's opening day when his wife Joan asked him to take over a load of donated items. He ended up buying a side table they could use for family barbecues. In a way, it enabled him to give doubly by donating items and by purchasing something that could have been thrown away.
Brenda Gould, Executive Director of HFHGL gave the Mosquito a tour of the store. Brenda stressed how the store is constantly changing to accommodate fluctuating donations. We walked through the Mill City room, painted to represent the interior of local mills and boasting a beautiful mural of the Lowell Mills, done by students. The facility also holds their "EBay" room, where they auction off high-priced items to help fund building more houses.
In the front of the building, the former auto show room has been transformed into a bright function room with a large round bar (donated by Borders Books). Anyone in the community can rent it for $100-125, for functions ranging from Chamber of Commerce meetings to an upcoming interior-decorating workshop. In the back of the building, trucks make deliveries to a team of volunteers who clean off and price donated items to get them ready for the floor. Brenda mentioned they are in particular need of appliances of all kinds, so if you are looking to upgrade or move, think about contacting the store.
Community involvement
Many different parts of the community are involved with ReStore. Several local schools such as Shawsheen Tech, Greater Lowell Tech and the Merrimack School volunteer at the store and at local builds, and Westford Academy has a program where high school students intern during April and May to get hands-on experience with retail and construction. ReStore also works with the Billerica House of Corrections to further rehabilitation of inmates by allowing those charged with non-violent crimes to give back to the community through volunteering at ReStore.
The goal of the store is to be able to fund at least one house per year, and to help with the Veterans Critical Care Program. When Brenda first started on the project last February, she was fairly new to HFHGL and excited to work on a project that would help local veterans realize simple, affordable repairs to their homes. She contacted Angela Smith, Outreach Coordinator of the Carlisle Council on Aging, and others in the community to help. The project got off to a slow start, due to lack of organization. They have subsequently hired Bob Lafleur part-time to oversee construction, and there are now 35 families being served. Thanks to Angela, they have identified veterans here in Carlisle, who can benefit from this service, and work on their homes will begin in April.
Both Brenda and John stress that the programs are a "hand up" not a "hand out." Families who receive help are expected to attend financial planning classes, pay off an interest-free mortgage and put in "sweat equity" working on the project alongside volunteers. Because of donations and help from the community, families pay only about 15-20% of the actual cost of building. In the case of veterans, they are expected to pay a significantly reduced price for repairs. For example, in Dracut, roof repairs were estimated at $10,000, but the family was asked to pay only $2,000 with a no-interest payment plan. The best part is, once the job is paid off, these payments end up going to aid the next family in need.
There are several ways to participate and donate to Habitat of Greater Lowell, including the committees for Project Development, Building, Family Section, Family Support, Resource Development, Interfaith and the Youth United Committee.

He turned out pretty cute. I think I'll maybe used a dark thread to satin stitch around it so it looks more like a coloring book page and the fabric edges stand out more.
The red fabric I had received in a prior TLE order – fabrics I'm going to use for a Komen Fund Raiser quilt – but it was just perfect with these fabrics so I snipped a bit off that stack of fabrics.
He's all fused in place and there's Décor Bond fused to the back so once I pull out the other sewing machine (which I just put away yesterday after mending something) I may see if I can get him stitched down and contemplate the rest of my bag. I'm going to have to make a little shopping list I think. Since I don't sew clothes anymore, my supply of more clothing type notions — like elastic which I want for something — are pretty much nonexistent. So will have to figure out what else I might want..

Having a proper golf swing is essential for the golfer to get ahead in the game and to prevent golf associated injuries.
The analysis is done by visualizing and adjusting body rotation, body shift, swing and follow through to ensure proper technique and body mechanics. Ensuring proper golf swing will allow for efficiency of force through the club to the ball and allow the golfer to have better control of their game.
