1. Support, support, support! Leave the naggers and 'you can't do this' people behind. Sometimes this means putting space between you and your family (if they don't approve of homeschooling.) Don't isolate yourself though! Make like-minded friends, get in a homeschool group, meet with others that are homeschooling, be around those that will help you, root for you and push you in a positive way. Most homeschoolers burn out because they had no support and when things got hard, they fell and there was no safety net to catch them.
2. Think about the reason(s) you will be home educating. This might look different down the road when you've been doing it forever, but if you are new to homeschooling (and even sometimes if you aren't) ask yourself questions like: What is my schooling philosophy? (Note: creating a super genius is more of a goal and not a philosophy…) Why am I going to homeschool? ('Because it's easy' is not the answer…) What do I understand about learning and what would I like to know? What is my role going to be in this endeavor? How is my home going to operate with this thing of 'homeschooling' going on? (It's probably going to be considerably more messy, but God made dirt and dirt don't hurt…) What is my teaching style and what is my child's learning style? How can I learn more about everything so I can be a better teacher? (trick question, actually you will be a guide to your learner and you learn with them as you go along. Don't remember HS algebra, no problem, there are things out there to help you learn it and explain it.)
3. Homeschooling is not a solo thing, even when you have kids that are independent, you still matter. You are the greatest tool they have, you can provide them with tools to learn, conversation to deepen their thoughts, a cheering section to give them a boost of confidence, a partner to guide them, a coach, a teacher, a person who is involved in their everyday life. You aren't just the person who sets up the school room and presides over the day, you are the guide that travels with your child pointing out interesting things along the way.
4. You don't have to be a know-it-all right from the start. You can have questions about homeschooling for many years down the road. Get started and try something, then take a step back and evaluate. Sometimes answers come from doing, do some more and see what happens. Talk to others, ask questions of them, see what worked, see what didn't, try a new path, ask some more questions. Don't you remember that 3 year old who was always asking questions? Try it on yourself, why are you using that particular book? What worked for that kid in the homeschool group with the same problem? What happens if I don't finish that English workbook? (The workbook police show up and make you write a 50 page essay…just kidding, that's the Grammar police that do that.)
5. If you bought it (or borrowed it or are trying it out) give the material a chance. If you plant a seed, you water it and give it a chance to grow into a shoot – so don't think that something doesn't work because you used it for a day or even a week. Sometimes you need to read up on the stuff you are using outside of 'school hours' to understand it enough to use it properly. I don't let my kids say that they don't like something we are using the instant they use it, I listen, but I also make sure that we have given it enough time, followed the plan or found a way to use the curriculum to suit the needs of our learning environment. If everything you use is straight out of the box and not tailored to your needs you might fall into the pit of 'git 'er done' as opposed to self discovery, love of learning and exploration.
6. A curriculum does not a school make. A curriculum will give you the philosophy or teaching agenda of its creators, it won't magically cause learning to take place. There is no magic curriculum that will create math wizards or bring a calming peace to your school (that's Calgon.) How you understand education in the home will cause learning to happen, as you grow in your relationship with your children you will find out what speaks to them. This will allow you to see which books, curricula or educational tools uplift learning for them or undermine their potential. The learning that takes place will happen because you fostered a joyful attitude and a love of learning that created the environment for discovery and real learning.
7. If the curriculum you are using causes tears (yours or your children's) toss it. If school has become a struggle, busy work or isn't challenging, reassess and find out what the root of the problem is. Is the curriculum too hard? Too easy? Is it set up for one style of learning and you have the other? Are there problems you didn't know your child had and the curriculum isn't adapting to that (dysgraphia, dyslexia, sensory issues, etc.)? I had one reading program that worked for 3 of my children, but that 4th child burst into tears (and trust me, they weren't tears of joy…) every time we sat down to read. I switched to a different approach, and it has taken longer for her to catch onto reading, but it's not the tearful chore it once was.
8. Don't get sucked into the idea that every homeschooler is a happy homeschooler and that every school day is chock full of learning and amazing activities. Some days will be boring, some days will be peaceful, some days will have you tearing your hair out and some days will be exciting. Just like the roller coaster ride of life, homeschooling has its ups and downs. If you read blogs about homeschooling, they won't always show you the nitty-gritty of life in a homeschooling family, no one wants to be bummed out. But, those days do exist and they happen to everyone (yes, even me.)
9. Don't just keep records for the state or for credit. Write down the cool things you saw on that hike, take a picture of your child reading, jot down the fact that your child did a multiplication problem and got it right. Homeschooling is pretty darn cool, display the photo of your zoo outing or the time you saw Abraham Lincoln at the library. Start a blog where you can keep track of the things that you do for school, the funny things your kids say or the facts they can recite. If you keep track of what you do for school, don't forget to add in those field trips, library shows, festivals and other things you did. When someone asks my kids what they did for school this week, they rarely say, 'We did math and reading', nope, they say things like, 'We saw Amelia Earhart and heard her talk about her flights, we hiked five miles and saw a swallowtail caterpillar, we cleaned up by the river and then went tubing.' (That might just sound like fun but in reality it was history, P.E., science, and volunteerism.)
10. Don't wait until you are about to crack before you take a break. Your break might be a walk in the morning, a coffee break once a week, a teacher night out once a month, talking with moms at a park, whatever it is that you need to renew and refresh. Personally I go to teacher night outs, park days and get my talking time and break time. Sometimes I take off for the coffee shop by myself, take a walk or take a weekend to look over my curriculum and school schedule. You might need to swap babysitting with someone if you have younger kids so that you can go to an adult only event. It's just as important to get adult time in as it is for you to have time with your kids. Signs that you need a break: you're getting frazzled and it's only 8 am, the only way you talk is by yelling, you're pretty sure poltergeists live in your house because you just cleaned that room and now it looks like it exploded, you're crying, your kids are crying, everyone needs a timeout!
This is by no means an exhaustive list – just a few off the top of my head. Feel free to add your own ideas to the list for newbie and not so newbie homeschoolers.

The race for the 2013 Heisman Trophy continues to gather steam as major FBS programs roll through non-conference play. Marquee early-season victories have boosted the candidacy of several major contenders, like Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd and Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner. Meanwhile, Georgia's Aaron Murray and Todd Gurley have remained in the hunt despite losing to Boyd and the Tigers on the first Saturday of the season.
MORNING TAILGATE: Ranking best backup QB plans for top 10 teams
COACHES POLL: Ranking the top 25 teams
Next up: Texas A&M and Alabama or, for the interest of the Heisman race, Johnny Manziel and AJ McCarron. A win for Manziel could move him back to the forefront of the Heisman conversation. Likewise for McCarron, one of the most successful quarterbacks in FBS history.
With another two or three weeks until the start of conference play, here are 10 leading contenders for the 2013 Heisman:
1. Clemson QB Tajh Boyd
Season stats: 32 of 53 for 439 yards; three touchdowns, zero interceptions
Boyd has the best win of any quarterback in the FBS, beating Georgia in the opener, and will have two more opportunities — against Florida State and South Carolina — to impress the voting public.
2. Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater
Season stats: 46 of 60 for 752 yards; nine touchdowns, one interception
Bridgewater has nine touchdowns against 14 incomplete passes — a pretty good ratio. This Louisville offense shouldn't be overly tested by any opponent on the 2013 schedule.
3. Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel
Season stats: 35 of 50 for 520 yards; six touchdowns, one interception; 13 carries for 55 yards
Manziel has taken a slight hit due to his early-season suspension, but he seemed back to his old self in Texas A&M's rout of Sam Houston State. A win against Alabama would lift Manziel back into the top spot.
4. Georgia RB Todd Gurley
Season stats: 42 carries for 286 yards, three touchdowns
There's been no better back in college football during the first two weeks of the 2013 season. Gurley was a brawler in Saturday's win against South Carolina, toting a career-high 30 carries.
5. Georgia QB Aaron Murray
Season stats: 37 of 52 for 632 yards; four touchdowns, one interception
Murray's woebegone history against South Carolina was reversed during 60 minutes of Heisman-worthy production. Can Georgia's offense put two starters into the Heisman mix? One might fall by the wayside at the expense of the other.
6. Alabama QB AJ McCarron
Season stats: 10 of 23 for 110 yards; one touchdown, one interception
McCarron was not at his best in a season-opening win against Virginia Tech, nor was Alabama's offense as a whole. But he'll rebound, as will his team, and McCarron can easily move ahead of several other contenders with a win at Texas A&M.
7. Oregon QB Marcus Mariota
Season stats: 26 of 49 for 433 yards; three touchdowns, zero interceptions; nine carries for 235 yards, three touchdowns
Mariota's spot could easily go to junior De'Anthony Thomas, who has excelled as the Ducks' new featured back. But for now, Mariota's blend of passing talent and running ability — check out his 71-yard touchdown scamper against Virginia — has him as Oregon's top contender.
8. Michigan QB Devin Gardner
Season stats: 31 of 48 for 456 yards; five touchdowns, three interceptions; 20 carries for 134 yards, three touchdowns
Gardner excelled under the bright lights against Notre Dame, accounting for five touchdowns, and Heisman campaigns have historically been built on far less.
9. Ohio State QB Braxton Miller
Season stats: 17 of 24 for 208 yards; two touchdowns, one interception; 18 carries for 82 yards
Miller missed nearly all of Saturday's win against San Diego State and could potentially miss more time this weekend against California. Though he excels between the white lines, it would hurt Miller's candidacy to miss extended time in September.
10. Miami (Fla.) RB Duke Johnson
Season stats: 40 carries for 245 yards, two touchdowns
Johnson has been as good as advertised since joining the Hurricanes last fall. Although his numbers weren't spectacular against Florida, the Hurricanes' victory gives Johnson a major boost.

Just my way of sharing with family, friends, and anyone who will listen, the things that I have learned about my ancestors with a little bit about myself and my own little family in the mix.

Sunday's Obituary: Another Obituary Reveals Clues.
Okay this is a case of "Ooops, my bad." I mentioned in my last post, Reveling In This Moment, how I connected with a Jones family cousin a little more than a year ago and that she shared with me several images. One of those pictures was a newspaper obituary. Upon receipt, I glanced at it and accessed that it was pretty much the same obituary that I already had, which I featured in my post, Sunday's Obituary: Dr. Oscar Dunn Jones. Well, my bad, it wasn't. I looked at it again this past week and read it thoroughly this time.
This obituary gave a bit more detail on the circumstances surrounding Oscar's death. Unfortunately, I don't know what paper it came from. Now I took liberties to fill in information that had been cut off if I was able to figure out the gist of what a sentence was saying.
Dr. O. D Jones Dies in N.C.
Dr. O. D. Jones, a practicing dentist in Baltimore for thirty years, died Wednesday at 11 p.m. at the home of his brother T. M. Jones, in Raleigh, following a heart attack.
Dr. Jones in company with another brother, Dr. James Jones of Philadelphia, was en route to visit still another brother in Morehead City, N. C. They had stopped overnight in Raleigh.
Preparing for Bed
The Baltimore dentist was preparing for bed when he was taken suddenly ill. He had been ordered to take a month's rest because he had recently suffered two serious heart attacks.
Another brother, Henry, of Philadelphia, and a sister Miss Elizabeth Jones of Morehead City.
(Continued on Page 3, Col. ?)
(a portion of obituary is missing)
... O. D. Jones Jr. of Selfridge Field, MI survive.
Son to Accompany Body
Corporal Jones has been notified of the death and will bring the body to Baltimore for funeral services.
Howard U. Grad
Dr. Jones graduated from Howard University where he completed both his undergraduate and graduate work. He was an active member of St. James (part cut off) Church.
He was vice president of (part cut off) Club and former superintendent of the church school (part cut off) associate vestryman.
Dr. Jones lived at 1128 W. Lafayette Ave and conducted office at 1405 Druid Hill Avenue.
Clue #1: Oscar Dunn Jones died at the home of his brother T. M. Jones., in Raleigh, N.C.
Who was T. M. Jones? I didn't have him listed on my family tree among the children of William Henry Jones and Emma Shepard? Was he a child missed by the census?
Answer: He may have been a child missed by the census but I am more inclined to believe at this time that he was visiting the home of his brother Dr. Caeser N. Jones of Raleigh, NC. His initials were C. N. and perhaps were misheard by whoever took down the information for the obituary.
Clue #2: Who was this Dr. James Jones? I did not have a record of him anywhere or so I thought. Was there another brother who lived in Philadelphia? Could this be true?
Answer: Yes! My cousin confirmed this information. There was another brother named James Edward Jones who was also a dentist. Then I went back and looked at the obituary I had found quite some time ago in the ProQuest Historical Newspapers Colletion: The Baltimore Afro-American (1893-1988.) Yes, indeed there is mention of a Dr. J. E. Jones
Lesson learned from this: Read through everything sent to you thoroughly. I made an assumption when I received the above featured obituary that it was identical to the one I already had all because they had the same picture shown in each. Like I said before, Ooops my bad!
More on James Edward Jones tomorrow. Happy researching everyone!

I'm trying to find out the name of the father of my mother's sister. She had two obituaries published in a newspaper on the 11th and 12th day of the month. I paid to view the 12th date but there was no mention of a father's name. I assumed that the 11th would be the same obituary and never looked into it further. I think now after reading your post, I will pay the small fee and see if by chance the father's name is there.ReplyDeleteReplies
Hey, it's worth a shot. I wish you good luck in your research. Thanks for reading :)Delete
You're welcome and thanks for the encouragement. I accessed the obituary on the 11th and it was 100% identical to the wording on the 12th. At least I know I tried and can focus my efforts on other records. Take care!ReplyDelete
I've been finding it really hard to verify groups of siblings, when they've got similar given names or sometimes just initials. Often the initials are wrong or the name is misheard. I can see how C. N. would sound like T. N.ReplyDelete

Recaps of Friday games …
Curry sends Duke past Michigan State 71-61
MICHAEL MAROT,AP Sports Writer
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Seth Curry shot Duke right into the regional finals — and put Mike Krzyzewski on the verge of another milestone.
Curry scored 29 points and the Blue Devils beat Michigan State 71-61 on Friday night to advance to the Midwest Regional final in the NCAA tournament.
"Seth was just at a different level than anyone else on the court offensively tonight," Krzyzewski said. "To get 29 points in a game like this against a good team is just incredible."
If No. 2 seed Duke (30-5) beats top-seeded Louisville (32-5) in Sunday's regional final, Krzyzewski would tie John Wooden's record with 12 Final Four trips.
Third-seeded Michigan State (27-9) just couldn't keep up with Curry and Duke's shooters. Keith Appling had 16 points for the Spartans, and Adreian Payne finished with 14.
Curry's sixth 3-pointer of the game broke a 38-38 tie early in the second half, sending Duke on a 9-0 run. It also matched the school record for most 3s in an NCAA tourney game, most recently accomplished by Jason Williams on March 22, 2001, against UCLA.
The Blue Devils never trailed again.
Rasheed Sulaimon had 16 points and Mason Plumlee finished with 14 for Duke.
The win comes 16 months after Duke beat Michigan State to give Krzyzewski the NCAA record for wins. Now, one year after falling to Lehigh in the second round of the tournament, Krzyzewski is on the verge of breaking a second-place tie with North Carolina's Dean Smith and matching Wooden's mark.
Louisville coach Rick Pitino has made six appearances in the Final Four. Another win would tie him for fourth with Roy Williams in a game that likely will be played in front of another highly partisan Cardinals crowd.
Burke leads UM rally over Kansas, 87-85 in OT
SCHUYLER DIXON,AP Sports Writer
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Trey Burke never doubted he could lead Michigan to its deepest NCAA tournament run since the Fab Five era.
Not after a scoreless first half. Not when the Wolverines trailed top-seeded Kansas by 14 with less than 7 minutes left — or by 5 with 21 seconds left.
And definitely not when he got the ball in his hands and the seconds draining away.
Burke scored all 23 of his points in the second half and overtime, including a long, tying 3-pointer in the final moments of regulation as Michigan rallied to beat Kansas 87-85 in the South Regional semifinals Friday night.
"We never lost faith out there," Burke said. "We stuck it out together."
Ben McLemore had 20 points to lead the Jayhawks (31-6), who looked to be on their way to a third straight regional final before Michigan's improbable rally. Instead, they became the third No. 1 seed to fall in this tournament, joining Gonzaga and Indiana.
"Well, this will certainly go down as one of the toughest games that obviously we've been a part of and I've been a part of," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "But props to Michigan for making all the plays late."
That's for sure.
The fourth-seeded Wolverines (29-7) were down five when Tim Hardaway Jr. missed a 3-pointer with 35 seconds left, but Glenn Robinson III won a scramble for the ball and hit a reverse layup to force Kansas to win the game at the free throw line.
The Jayhawks couldn't do it. Burke's tying shot — he pulled up from well beyond the arc just left of the key — came with 4.2 seconds left after Elijah Johnson missed a free throw and Michigan got the rebound.
Moments earlier, with 21 seconds remaining, Johnson had hit two from the line to keep the Kansas lead at five. Burke had scored on a layup to get Michigan back to within three.
"We never had the mindset that we were going to lose the game," Burke said. "When we were down 14, we knew anything could still happen. It's March, anything can happen."
Smith leads Louisville to 77-69 victory over Ducks
NANCY ARMOUR,AP National Writer
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Even a nasty cold can't stop Russ Smith.
With his teammates struggling with the virus he gave them and top-seeded Louisville facing its toughest test of the postseason, Russ put on his best show yet. He matched his career high of 31 points and the Cardinals proved they can win close games, too, beating Oregon 77-69 on Friday night.
"Without Russ Smith, we couldn't win," said Louisville coach Rick Pitino, who improved to 11-0 in the regional semifinals of the NCAA tournament.
Louisville (32-5) plays Duke on Sunday, the first time Pitino and Mike Krzyzewski have met in a regional final since Christian Laettner's shot in 1992.
Louisville has been nearly untouchable during its 13-game winning streak, beating opponents by an average of 17 points. And it looked as if this was going to be more of the same when Smith outscored Oregon 9-8 through the first 10 minutes.
But the 12th-seeded Ducks (28-9) made a game of it late.
After Louisville went up 66-48 with 9:01 left, Oregon made six straight field goals to close to 70-64 — the closest anyone's been to the Cardinals in weeks. But Kevin Ware scored on a layup and Chane Behanan threw down a monstrous dunk to put the game out of reach.
Ware finished with 11, topping his previous career best by one, and Gorgui Dieng had 10 points, nine rebounds and four blocked shots.
"Russ Smith is a talented young man. They've got a lot of talented players," Oregon coach Dana Altman said. "When he got going, we didn't have an answer."
Florida wins 62-50 to end FGCU's NCAA run
STEPHEN HAWKINS,AP Basketball Writer
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Mike Rosario had 15 points and Florida is going to an NCAA regional final for the third year in a row after a 62-50 victory over Florida Gulf Coast, the No. 15 seed whose improbable tournament journey ended just before midnight Friday.
Florida Gulf Coast, the high-flying team from "Dunk City" few people knew before this NCAA tourney, jumped out to an early 11-point lead against the SEC regular-season champs.
But the No. 3 seed Gators (29-7), with a roster filled with NCAA tourney experience, were just too strong and too good.
Michael Frazier made a pair of 3-pointer to start a 16-0 run late in the first half. That came in a 4½-minute span when the Eagles (26-11) had four turnovers and missed their only shot. They trailed the rest of the game.
The Gators play Michigan in the South Regional final at Cowboys Stadium on Sunday. They are trying to get to their first NCAA Final Four since consecutive national championships in 2006 and 2007.

Gladys Braithwaite Nelson celebrated her 100th birthday at the Turnquist Retreat in Elmo on April 24. The Golden Oldies senior band was on hand to help Gladys celebrate and entertain her with music.
Her family was also invited to Elmo. The parties didn't end there for Gladys they also had a family celebration for her in Ferron on April 27.
Gladys said she didn't think she'd ever make it to 100-years-old, but she's glad she did. "I've had a happy life most of the time. Life has its ups and downs. I've taken good care of myself.
Gladys remembers making the trip from Ferron to Manti in a buggy. Gladys is originally a Manti girl, transported over the mountain by her husband, Bryant. On one such buggy trip they made it as far as where I-70 is now and spent the night. They woke up to 16 inches of snow that had fallen overnight. A motorcycle sped past them as they readied for their journey on through Salina Canyon. The next day they saw the motorcycle had been abandoned at the summit of Salina Canyon. They built a fire and warmed up rocks to help keep them warm on their trip. They made it to Salina and the next day on to Manti. The entire buggy trip took three days. Gladys has many tales to tell of a long and happy life.

Big Beat
Of all the labels in the wild and wonderful Ace Records galaxy, none encompass more stylistic variance than Big Beat. Over the years, it has mostly our home for rock'n'roll and pop recorded since the mid-1960s, though the label's roster also encompasses folk, country, easy listening and other genres of yesterday or today - that are not instantly identifiable candidates for Ace, Kent or BGP. That's not to say that Big Beat is the repository for everything that doesn't fit specifically on our other labels - quite the opposite. In fact, if you had to use one word to sum up the Big Beat label, it's eclectic and willfully so.
It should be noted however that 1960s rock is the stock in trade of Big Beat, and our humble imprint is in fact renowned the world over for treating 1960s vintage pop, garage and psych with the loving respect it deserves. The label's release schedule has verged from acts exemplary (Zombies, Sonics, Big Star) to underrated (Dan Hicks, Gosdin Brothers, Sharon Tandy) to terminally obscure (She, Dean Carter, Frumious Bandersnatch), but we love it all, and the wilder and woolier, the better. There's heavy emphasis on the US with regionally-focused series such as Nuggets From The Golden State and Northwest Battle Of The Bands, but make a note of our Big Beat International sideline, which showcases vintage sounds from Japan, Iceland, Australia, and beyond, that are all well worth investigating. More chronologically up-to-date sounds on Big Beat comes from Ace/Chiswick punk stalwarts the Damned, and the best of the garage rock revival crop like the Prisoners, Billy Childish's Milkshakes and the Hammersmith Gorillas, amongst many others. On the other end of the spectrum, we have folk legends Bert Jansch and John Renbourn, vintage loonies the Fugs, not to mention Mahogany Rush. As we said, eclectic.

Beautiful Boots!
"I love the color of these boots! I've been searching for a nice pair of cognac boots since this fall and could not find a pair to fit my small calves...until now! This pair fits my calves perfectly and is exactly the color I was hoping for. I usually wear an 8 and the 8 fit perfectly. I might consider getting some inserts as the boots don't really have any padding or cushion, but we'll see. Regardless, these boots were exactly what I was looking for and they look and fit awesome! Definitely recommend for those of you with skinny calves!!"

Cucumber Gherkin - Seeds
-We will add an Aloe vera plant on all order above Rs 100, free of cost
-Offer valid on all orders paid today
No summer garden should be without cucumbers. They are very easy to grow and are very prolific. Planted in a section of the garden that receives full sun and has an evenly moist, fertile soil, success is almost guaranteed.
Lifecycle: annual
Ease-of-care: easy, Cucumbers are not hard to grow if you provide good soil, plenty of moisture and full sun, wait for soil and weather to warm before planting, and use fabric row covers if pests are a problem.
Height: 1 to 6 feet, Vining varieties can climb up to 6 feet with support, or hug the ground if allowed to sprawl.
Spread: 1 to 6 feet, Bush varieties take up only 2 or 3 square feet, while unsupported vining varieties can run along the ground for 6 or more feet.
Savour the taste of summer with your own home grown cucumbers. Cucumbers are an essential ingredient for adding to sandwiches, delicious salads, and those long, cool summer drinks on the patio.
Color: Yellow
Height: Very long vine with wide spacing.
Difficulty level: Easy
Planting & Care
Choose a sunny site with fertile, well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.5. Grow cucumbers in rows or hills spaced 6 feet apart, or try increasing yields by training vines up a vertical trellis.
Mix a 2-inch layer of rich compost into the planting site, along with a light application of an organic fertilizer. Thoroughly water the soil before planting seeds half an inch deep and 6 inches apart. When the seedlings have three leaves, thin them to 12 inches apart, which is the spacing you should use if transplanting seedlings.
Sunlight: Sun/Part Shade
Soil: Ideally, soil should be neutral or slightly alkaline with a pH of 7.0. Improve clay soil by adding organic matter. Improve dense, heavy soil by adding peat, compost or rotted manure.
Water: Just keep the soil consistently moist with an inch of water per week (more if temperatures sizzle and rain is scarce). Inadequate or inconsistent moisture causes oddly shaped or poor-tasting fruit. If possible, water your cucumbers with a soaker hose or drip irrigation to keep the foliage dry. This helps prevent leaf diseases that can ruin the plant.
Temprature: 70-85° (21-29° C)
Fertilizer: You can fertilize with a liquid food, every 2 weeks, applying it directly to soil around plant stems. Or you can use a granular, slow-release fertilizer worked into the soil when you plant or sprinkled around the plants later.
Harvesting: Harvest regular slicing cucumbers when they about 6 to 8 inches long (slicing varieties). Harvest dills at 4 to 6 inches long and pickles at 2 inches long for pickles. The large burpless cucumbers can be up to 10 inches long and some types are even larger. Cucumbers are best picked before they seeds become hard and are eaten when immature. Do not let them get yellow. A cucumber is of highest quality when it is uniformly green, firm and crisp. Any cucumbers left on the vine too long will also get tough skins and lower plant productivity. At peak harvesting time, you should be picking cucumbers every couple of days. Keep them picked. If you don't, as plants mature, they will stop producing. Cucumbers are over 90 percent water. Store wrapped tightly in plastic wrap to retain moisture. They will keep for a week to 10 days when stored properly in the refrigerator.
- When planting seeds in the ground, cover with netting or a berry basket to keep pests from digging out the seeds.
- When seedlings emerge, begin to water frequently, and increase to a gallon per week after fruit forms.
- When seedlings reach 4 inches tall, thin plants so that they are 1½ feet apart.
- If you ve worked in organic matter into the soil before planting, you may only need to side-dress your plants with compost or well-rotted manure.
- Or, if you wish, use a fertilizer from your garden store which is low nitrogen/high potassium and phosphorus formula and apply at planting, 1 week after bloom, and every 3 weeks with liquid food, applying directly to the soil around the plants.
- Or, you can work a granular fertilizer into the soil.
- Do not over-fertilize or the fruits will get stunted.
- Water consistently; put your finger in the soil and when it is dry past the first joint of your finger, it is time to water.
- Inconsistent watering leads to bitter-tasting fruit.
- Water slowly in the morning or early afternoon, avoiding the leaves.
- Mulch to hold in soil moisture.
- If you have limited space or would prefer vertical vines, set up trellises early to avoid damage to seedlings and vines.
- Spray vines with sugar water to attract bees and set more fruit.

Item: RSX DC Race Header Megan Shorty, Axleback OBX Test Pipe Exhaust Full Stock 06 S w/cat
Price: $225 varies
Location: Davie, FL
Contact: PM
Item Description: Got basically 2.5 Exhaust systems. Pics not in any order.
Off the car:
1. DC Race Header $225
2. Stock 06 RSX Type S Header $50
3. Stock 06 S Catalytic Converter $240
4. Stock 06 S Catback Exhaust $190
5. Stock 04 RSX-S Header (it's shorter than 06) $45
6. Megan N1 burnt style Axleback $45
On the car:
7. Megan Shorty Header
8. OBX test pipe w/defouler
9. OBX Catback Exhaust (Comptech Replica) Only selling together for $390
10. 2 Vibrant quarter inch exhaust spacers for 2.5" + 2 gaskets.
Full Description
1. DCRH: I bought it used and never put it on. Previous owner said he put a new flexpipe on there. It is different from original and poorly welded but it does the job. It has a welded on O2 fouler in the primary hole. IDK why he did this but it seems odd. That's why its at a discounted price.
2, 3, 4: Stock 06 RSX-S full exhaust. All in great shape. Will not part midpipe and muffler. Header was last to come off but the rest was used together. One problem with header: a hole is stripped so I drilled it out a bit and will include a nut to put on the other end. Will work perfect.
5. 04 S header. Bought this from a friend a while back. No problems.
6. Megan Axleback. Its just a muffler and Meineke made the piping. Bolts on perfect.
7. Megan shorty: Bought this used too. It seems like it was made for 02-04 due to length. Inner pipe at the end is cracked a little. Pic will show. I put it on today and no problem though. Also one hole is stripped.
8. OBX test pipe: Like new. Has bungs for O2's. Includes CEL eliminator. Doesn't stretch wires.
9. OBX exhaust. Its basically a comptech replica. 1 Small ding on resonator that it came with new. Minor scratches on midpipe. Full 2.5 Inside diameter piping. Being OBX it didn't fit right and was too short. 3 inches of pipe was added. Welds on that part are as good if not better than the welds on the rest of the exhaust. Paid $80 for that. Now its flush with the bumper. Wasn't a problem that the Megan shorty was shorter.
10. Spacers: Willing to separate. $20 each or $35 for both. Used for less than a week. Exhaust was too short to fit and I needed these to get it on.

Final BCS Rankings
The Bowl Championship Series rankings were used for the first time during the 1998 season to determine BCS bowl match-ups. The final rankings were released Dec. 6, 1998. Note that Q-rank refers to Quartile rank and L refers to games lost.
Explanation Key
Poll Average—The average of the Associated Press media poll and the USA Today/ESPN coaches' poll. Others receiving votes are calculated in order received.
Computer Average—The average of The Hester & Anderson/Seattle Times, Jeff Sagarin's rankings and The New York Times rankings. In order to prevent differences in individual formulas, a maximum adjusted deviation of no greater than 50 percent of the average of the two lowest computer rankings is utilized. That number appears in parenthesis.
Quartile Rank—Rank of schedule strength compared to other Division I-A teams divided by 25. This component is calculated by determining the cumulative won/loss records of the team's opponents (66.6 percent) and the cumulative won/loss record of the team's opponents' opponents (33.3 percent).
Losses—One point for each loss during the season.

Courtesy is Important While Drift Fishing
Each year we fishermen enjoy the many benefits to drift fishing.
As we trailer our boats toward the bay with great anticipation, we take time to discuss with each other how we are going to fish this or that particular area, and what kind if bait to use.
Keep in mind; wind direction in the city and at the water's edge is usually 180 degrees different.
Once away from the marina, head straight for the area you wish to fish.
Upon arriving, take note of the wind direction and start your drift sideways.
By doing so, more people can fish toward the structure with the wind at their backs.
If the wind is pushing your boat too fast for you to work the bait of choice (live or artificial), there are several methods to drift.
The most commonly used is a drift anchor. It is a bright yellow or blue plastic cone, with a half-inch rope attached to straps that are connected to the top of the cone. (Approx 4 feet across)
The cone fills with water and slows down your drift. The other end is just about an 8-10 inches wide. Other materials may include a five-gallon paint bucket allowed to fill with water and trailed on a half-inch line about 20 feet long.
If you don't have either of these handy attachments, take your anchor and set it down backwards, allowing it to drag the bottom and slow down your drift.
Earlier, I mentioned keeping the wind to your back. It is almost impossible to cast into the wind or away from the direction you are drifting. Unless you are dredging the spoils of the channel. More on that another time.
You must keep up with the slack line between you and your bait. Once you have a fish on, tell your guide or friend immediately. He will then be able to set the anchor so you and the rest of the party can cast in the general direction of the first fish that was caught.
Do not over stay in the area. A good rule-of-thumb would be about 15 minutes.
If you don't pick up any more trout or reds, pull up the anchor and continue to drift.
Sometimes I find it more productive not to use the anchor and just drift. Each structure or reef is different.
And, remember, never leave fish. If you have been successful either by anchoring or drifting, stay in the area. The fish will feed again or they may have moved nearby.
Tidal movement and presentation of your bait are very important. If you have caught fish in the area, work it deliberately for at least an hour before moving on. You may want to return to the area when the tide turns the opposite direction.
Boating courtesy is very important when drifting. You may have had another boat anchor right in front of your drift or what we refer to as being cut off from either a boat running through your drift area, or starting up the engine as soon as you approach their boat.
Keep in mind the fish are not likely to stay in the area if you continue to make lots of noise when you decide to leave. Pick up your anchor and drift out of the area then start up the engine and begin a new drift.
Use common courtesy and look for bait activity. A trolling motor comes in handy if you need to leave, but don't want to stay.
Remember to always have fun and enjoy being outdoors.
See y'all on Galveston Bay.
Capt. Paul Marcaccio

Washington DC Transportation
There are 3 airports that serve the DC area:
- Information about both is found at http://www.metwashairports.com/
Reagan Airport is directly accessible by Metro train, BWI by MARC train during the week only, and all three by a combination of buses, taxis, and trains to your destination. Washington Flyer operates several shuttle options. Hotels also often run shuttle buses to and from the airports.
Once in DC, the easiest way to get around is probably walking! DC is a very walkable city and there is much to do on foot around the convention center.
If you wish to go further afield, the Metro train system is easy and affordable. Metro fare cards are available in every station and can also be bought in advance. Both the green and yellow lines stop right at the Convention Center.

John Cranko Schule
The Taming of the Shrew
John Cranko
Kurt-Heinz Stolze nach Domenico Scarlatti
Elisabeth Dalton
James Tuggle
Wolfgang Heinz
Steen Bjarke
March 16th, 1969, Stuttgart Ballet
John Cranko's
The Taming of the Shrew
is one of the greatest ballet comedies of the 20th century. Inspired by William Shakespeare's world famous play of the same name, Cranko brings to vivid life the story of the shrewish Katherina whom no one wants to marry and the dashing and clever Petruchio who makes her his wife and "tames" her.
The Taming of the Shrew
was created by John Cranko for the Stuttgart Ballet with the famous dancers Marcia Haydée and Richard Cragun starring in the leading roles. Cranko, a master at creating characters whose inner motivations are believable and instantly understandable by the audience, has provided many subsequent generations of dancers with two spectacular roles in which both acting and dancing ability can be sublimely combined. Katherina's character undergoes a profound change during the course of the ballet as she lets her defenses down and realizes that Petruchio loves her for herself. The utterly lovable Petruchio is given two bravoura solos which leave the audience breathless and cheering. Using three ingenious pas de deux which are in turns hilarious, touching and utterly human, Cranko ensures that the audience has fallen in love with his two main characters by the time the final curtain falls.
As in many ballets by Cranko – and indeed plays by Shakespeare – there are numerous additional characters to delight audiences and provide a foil to the two main characters: Katherina's pretty but vain sister Bianca and her three suitors: the fop Gremio, the snobbisch Hortesnio and the young student Lucentio who ultimately wins Bianca's hand, only to realise that looks are not everything. Katherina's and Bianca's long suffering father and the village priest add to the wonderful humor of the ballet.
Set to cheerful and boisterous music by Domenico Scarlatti, orchestrated by Kurt-Heinz Stolze, and with colourful costumes and a charming set by Elisabeth Dalton,
The Taming of the Shrew
evokes the sunlit streets and gardens of Italy and is the perfect ballet for the whole family.
