Tigers pick up two players in Rule 5 draft swaps
While they did not select any players themselves in the big-league portion of Major League Baseball's Rule 5 Draft, the organization was active in the process anyway, swooping in and trading for a pair of players picked by other teams Thursday.
Detroit traded minor-league utility man Justin Henry to the Boston Red Sox for the rights to second baseman Jeff Kobernus, and sent cash to the Mets for the rights to left-hander Kyle Lobstein. Under the stipulations of the Rule 5 draft, the Tigers must keep the players on the 25-man big-league roster for the entire season, or offer him back to his original team for $25,000.
While in principle that seems a bit constricting for an organization trying to assemble a World Series-caliber roster, the moves themselves make sense, considering the Tigers' needs at the back end of the roster.
Drafted by the Sox out of the Nationals organization, the oft-injured Kobernus could give the Tigers a boost in athleticism at the utility spot. A .279 hitter in four minor-league seasons, the former third-round pick has compiled 120 stolen bases in 290 games, 95 in the last two years with the Nats' high-A and Double-A affiliates. With the ability and athleticism to play infield or outfield, Kobernus could replace the departed Don Kelly, or challenge Ramon Santiago or Danny Worth for a reserve infield spot.
"My agent Steve (Cantor) had called me and let me know it was a possibility (of getting picked), but I was trying not to think too much about it," Kobernus told Baseball America's John Manuel. "When he called this morning, I was excited. I was lucky and happy to be part of the Nationals organization, but going to the Tigers, a team that's been waiting for years to win a World Series and that expects to win every year, I'm just excited to be a part of that."
A ninth-round pick of the Tigers in the 2007 draft, the light-hitting Henry hit .300 for Triple-A Toledo last year, but had just four career home runs.
The Mets drafted Lobstein out of the pitching-rich Tampa Bay organization, where he was almost exclusively a starter, compiling a 30-30 record and a 3.85 ERA in nearly 500 innings over 91 starts, none of them above Double-A. If he sticks with the big-league team, he could be rotation protection or slot into a long relief spot, like Duane Below from a year ago. He'd give the Tigers a third lefty out of the bullpen, behind Phil Coke and Darin Downs.
In the minor-league portion of the Rule 5 draft, the Tigers selected outfielder Eliezer Mesa from the Oakland A's system, but lost left-handed pitchers Jay Voss (St. Louis) and Efrain Nieves (Toronto).

Calling all cupcake lovers — chef Michelle Ciccarelli will reveal her secrets behind her delectable delights at Cups Organic Bakery a Cooking With Love Class on Sunday, July 18, from 3-6pm. The event will benefit the Ronald McDonald House of San Diego, which provides a home away from home for families staying at the house while their child is being treated for serious, often life-threatening illnesses at San Diego hospitals. The class will be held in the state-of-the-art kitchen at the new Ronald McDonald House.
The hands-on cupcake baking experience will allow participants to get into the kitchen, bake with Lerach, and learn how to make batters, frostings, fillings, and toppings. Held in the expansive six-island kitchen at the new Ronald McDonald House, bakers will crack the eggs, mix the sugar, scoop the flour, pop them in the oven, and then decorate.
An accomplished lawyer-turned-chef, Lerach has taught multiple sold-out cupcake classes at Sonoma's famous Relish Culinary Adventures Cooking School. She will create four different cupcakes including the signature Ronald McDonald House Love Cup, a lemon-vanilla bean cup with lemon curd center, topped with lemonade Swiss meringue frosting and fresh strawberries. For every Love Cup sold at her downtown La Jolla Cups Organic Bakery location, half of the proceeds will be donated to Ronald McDonald House.
Other flavors include: the PB Cup (a dairy-free chocolate cup with creamy peanut butter-cream); Banana Crème (a banana cup topped with cinnamon cream cheese frosting); Chocolate Truffle (a rich, truffle-filled chocolate cup topped with a rich, dark chocolate frosting); and Velours Rouge (a red devil's food cup with tangy-sweet cream cheese frosting).
To participate in the hands-on cooking session the cost is $75 or to observe is $50. With a state-of-the-art kitchen and six individual cooking stations, as many as 24 people can participate in the class to learn the hands-on techniques of preparing the selected dishes. Participants, audience members, and Ronald McDonald families will then enjoy the menu together.
Refreshments will be provided and all attendees will receive programs in which to write down the techniques they learn. To RSVP please contact Sarah Lara-Toney. (858/598-2445, email@example.com)

Now, a story about a model home that got destroyed by the spoiled family in it, and the man who had to keep the house together.
With all the hype surrounding the return of Arrested Development on Netflix, we're all on the edge of our seats in anticipation. The Bluth's house has sustained so many damages, so how much would it cost them to fix the model home? We're going to use our Price Estimator to give you a glimpse of how much money it would cost to hire pros to fix up the Bluth model home in Sudden Valley.
Carpet Cleaning
When Mrs. Featherbottom needs to impress the children, she does it with grace and elegance. Often, she's singing a song in her heart and translating common British phrases, but sometimes she tries too hard and thinks she can float from the second floor like Mary Poppins, only to ruin the carpet in the process.
What's next? Finding the best carpet cleaner in the OC (don't call it that). Not only is it extremely dangerous not to professionally clean the shards of glass from the carpet, but you'll also want to clean up the possible blood stains. Here's an estimated range of carpet cleaning jobs from our price estimator:
When you factor in the type of carpet, the location, and the mess, you're looking about a $99 price tag for a professional cleaning. It's a small price to pay to enjoy that new carpet smell and do this:
Interior Painting:
Do you have an actor in your family? I'm sure they're nowhere as dedicated as Tobias Fünke, the Blue Man Group enthusiast. But with such enthusiasm comes the messy cleanup.
What do you do when you have blue paint all over your walls? Color matching and keeping consistent strokes are all pitfalls if not done correctly. Hiring a pro would be in the following range:
A small paint job covering only one or two walls would probably cost on the lower end, around $172. However, if you want to paint your whole kitchen (we suggest just sticking with blue), the average price will be around $369.
New Kitchen Countertop:
Leave it to Gob to ruin your counter before he can say "Steve Holt." Did you really expect him to just twist the cap off? Why doesn't he just use his $3,000 shirt to twist off the cap, C'MON!
You're going to need to get a brand-new countertop, which can get costly depending on what material you want to use:
This pricing accounts for the pro purchasing the countertop, as opposed to you buying it yourself. A nice granite countertop is solid as a rock, but it can run you around $1000+, while a cheaper material can get as low as $221. Chip in for the nicer material, since you won't want to burn the counter with the Cornballer.
Flooring Installation:
Cheap construction is bad construction! When your house is merely a model home, you can't expect the foundation to be flawless.
An issue like your floor caving in should be fixed immediately for the safety of your family (and for preventing cousins from kissing).
Installing a floor is a big job! A cave-in like this one at the Bluth home will probably cost more than $2,000 to fix. Looks like you'll have to get rid of the Seaward.
Window Installation:
Poor Michael. He's just trying to be a good guy and save his family's failing business. It doesn't help when a snooping reporter comes around and breaks a window.
Luckily, due to the model home's location, they don't have to fix the window right away because they're not vulnerable to break-ins.
But for the rest of us, a broken window is an emergency and should be fixed immediately. Leaving your home open to burglars is making a huge mistake. Here's an estimate of replacing a window:
On average, a window installation will cost about $191 in the Orange County area. That's like the same price as… what… 19 bananas?
Total Bluth home remodel: $3,842
$3,842 is a LOT of money for a model home, but pretty soon, it'll be all worth it. With all the memories spent falling off chairs, slipping on vodka, and stashing your fugitive father in the attic, you can't put a price tag on the one thing that's got no choice but to keep them all together. And remember:

Claire DeLune was shaken awake by her Mother at exactly 5:00 AM. It was a bit early still to be on time for her new classes, but she had always loved the sunrise, and her Mother knew that. Wiping the sleep from her eyes groggily, she plodded the short distance from her bed to the small bathroom that came with her Dormitory. Mother was gone at that point. She had been gone for many years, of course. But thanks to her ability, Claire had been able to construct her own personal reality. At least, within the confines of her own dorm room. There was no way she would let anyone outside know of something so personal.
A few quick splashes of cold water were enough to revive her to her full senses, and she met the mirror with an extra-wide grin. Far from a 'normal' school life, but further still from being tested on 24/7, her new life began today. She hadn't been assigned any specific tasks or anything, and the threat level of her power was assessed as Green - no threat whatsoever - Claire had been able to cling to her ideal of a normal life, and now it was as good as hers. At least, as good as she was like to get after such a horrible fate befell humanity as a whole. Still, if she had to give today a color, it would be orange. Orange was energetic, ready to greet the day. The sunrise out the window, for example, was just the shade of orange she was thinking. Claire flung herself to the window with a smile and a silent laugh, then flung herself at her wardrobe, rifling through for the perfect outfit for the occasion.
Ha ha! Yes! Yes! It's perfect! o(≧∇≦o)
Pumping her fist in excited victory, Claire scrambled out of her PJs and into the one article of clothing that suited today perfectly. A simple V-neck tee, almost obnoxiously orange. Sprinting back to the mirror, she beamed as she turned around. Good! Great! (/^▽^)/ What was next? Something green? Yellow? Of course, she didn't have anything in the right shades. Maybe it was time for some shopping as soon as possible? Her eyes lit up. Shopping would be a good break from all the hard work day to day. She was sure school was hard, after all. For now, maybe today wasn't the day to be so completely outrageous. She had no idea who her new friends were, but maybe they would just make fun of her if she looked like a neon sign on the first day? No, a worker's jacket!? Σ(゜ロ゜) It was certainly the right shade of orange, but not quite the feeling she was going for. Yeah, maybe it was time for something a little darker? After 10 minutes of rifling through the various drawers and hangers, she came out with an ensemble of a dark navy skirt, shorts, and long sleeved shirt, topped with the orange tee. Everything was perfect.
Maybe because she was so early, the walk to the school itself was totally uneventful. No fateful meetings? What kind of happy school life is this supposed to be? (ㄒoㄒ) Maybe it wasn't going to be as happy as she thought. Maybe... Maybe it'd be all old men there... (゚´Д`゚)゚ Of course that wouldn't be the case, though. It was a school for teens, or so she had heard. The school itself was reasonably easy to distinguish. Without trying to cause much fuss in case there were cameras around, Claire suppressed her powers, which she usually let fly without a second thought, and hurried into the building. The first class was... Factual Studies? Like, studies on facts about stuff? That sounded difficult. Maths and things didn't have a whole lot to do with her power at all, and she was an artist by nature. Still, the image of the sunrise burned into her head, Claire DeLune picked up speed and rushed through the door of the classroom!
...At least, that was her intent. Of course the door didn't open by pushing it from the outside. It had a doorknob, after all. The result was a loud bang and Claire herself dropping all of her stuff around the hallway, including herself splayed out like a starfish on the ground.
Owowowowow...! ☆ ̄(>。☆)
It isn't like it hurt as much as she made it seem, but it was impossible for the poor girl to resist a healthy portion of slapstick humor to start the day. It didn't even matter if anyone was watching or not, she was her own audience in her head. No sound escaped her lips, but her mouth was open wide in an extraordinarily pained gesture and her eyes welled up with tears that just as quickly vanished as she resumed her regular grin, picked up her things, and went through the door the proper way.
Hello everyone! Sorry for the scene so early in the morning! \(^ ^)/

Some neighbors in the block that houses a homeless shelter for teenagers want their quiet cul-de-sac back.
Neighbors on a street in the area of Seventh Street and Patterson Road worry that property values will decline on their block of mostly well-kept brick homes now that one of the homes — a shelter called The House — has been operating on their street for the past year.

Four very good reasons to stop using the phrase "check your privilege."
- You don't know people's stories. You don't know where they came from, you don't know what they've been through. Just because someone was born white and upper class doesn't mean they're totally ignorant to the struggles of POC's and the economically disadvantaged
- Privilege is something to be aware of, not something to be ashamed of. The phrase shames and silences people who might have had legitimate contributions to make to the discussion.
- It's rude. Berating people for making simple mistakes is rude and tactless. If someone forgets to factor in privilege, gently remind them that circumstances are different for different people. Shooting people down is not conducive for stimulating discussion.
- If you have enough time, energy, and resources to sit in front of a computer for hours at a time and ride people for forgetting to consider privilege, then you're already substantially more privileged than most of the humans on this planet. You have no right to belittle other people for being privileged.
All I am asking is that we try to be a little bit kinder towards each other. The point should be to discuss the issues, not argue about them.
Real Talk About "Domestic Issues"
Tonight's debate was supposed to be about domestic issues, and it was to some extent but the majority of domestic issues like the environment, women, LGBT rights, immigration, were left out.
I'm tired of social issues being treated as secondary. Social issues are just as important (and to some people more important) than the economy and healthcare. I'm sick of issues concerning minorities and women being seen as less important because they don't affect white men.
- Pro-life: Abortion is horrible. Everyone deserves to live.
- What Pro-Choicers hear: Abortion is horrible. Everyone deserves to live.
- Pro-Choice: A woman has the right to choose what to do with her body. Whether that means she wants to abort or not.
- What Pro-Lifers hear: ALL WOMEN SHOULD HAVE AN ABORTION. YES TO ABORTION! YES! YES! YES! ALL BABIES SHOULD DIE!

(Born me) I'm born me, no I can't change.It's always darkest just before the dawn.
So stay awake with me, let's prove them wrong.Make it stop.
Let this end,
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge.
It's come to this,
A weightless step.
On the way down singing,
Woah, woah.The cold river washed him away,
But how could we forget.
Gathering candles, but not their tongues.And too much blood has flown from the wrists,
Of children shamed for those they chose to kiss.
Who will rise to stop the blood.
We're coming for,
Insisting on, a different beat, yeah.
A brand new song.Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.(Tyler Clementi, age 18
Billy Lucas, age 15
Harrison Chase Brown, age 15
Cody J. Barker, age 17
Seth Walsh, age 13)Make it stop
Make this end
This life chose me, I'm not lost in sin
And proud I stand of who I am
I plan to go on livingMake it stop
Make this end
All these years, pushed to the ledge
But proud I stand of who I am
I plan to go on living
To all who have ever been and/or are still bullied for being gay, for being lesbian, for being transgender, for being a tomboy, for liking ballet as a guy, for being shy, for being outspoken, for being smart, for being simply yourself, who ever you may be:
Please don't give up. Fight. Keep on going. Keep on surviving. Someday surviving will turn into living again. It will. I promise.
Know you are not alone. There are people who love you, who will protect and support you, who will lend you an ear. Who will be a shoulder to cry on and an ally fighting at your side. Seek them out.
Never give up. Never give THEM the satisfaction to know they have beaten you. They certainly don't make you happy. Why should you then make them happy by giving up?
"You who are so-called illegal aliens must know that no human being is 'illegal.' That is a contradiction in terms. Human beings can be beautiful or more beautiful, they can be fat or skinny, they can be right or wrong, but illegal? How can a human being be illegal?"
— Nobel laureate and holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel.The Dis-Uniting of America (2): Social Issues and The Demographic Split
My first reaction on hearing of the Senate's failure to get 60 votes for even modest measures to regulate the flow of guns into the hands of people who shouldn't have them, such as background checks supported by 90 percent of Americans, was to be furious at the spinelessness of the four Senate Democrats who voted against the measure (Mark Begich, Max Baucus, Mark Pryor, and Heidi Heitkamp), as well as the Republicans. And also with Harry Reid, who wouldn't lead the fight on changing the filibuster rule when he had the chance.
The deeper message here is that rural, older, white America occupies one land; younger, urban, increasingly non-white America lives in another. And the dividing line on social issues (not just guns, but also abortion, equal marriage rights, and immigration reform) runs between the two.
Yes, I know: Plenty of people who are rural, older, and white aren't regressives on guns, abortion, equal marriage, and immigration. And plenty who are urban, younger, and non-white are. My point is that if you want to explain what's happening in America on these non-economic issues you have to understand what's happening to the nation demographically — and why the demographic split is important.
Begich, Baucus, Pryor, and Heitkamp may be Democrats but they're also from rural, older, white America. That land has disproportionate political power in the Senate, and a gerrymandered House — which may not bode well for immigration reform over the next few months, and suggests continuing battles over "state's rights" to determine who can marry and when human life begins.
Over time, though, older, rural, white America is losing ground to a nation becoming ever younger, more urban, and increasingly non-white — a fact that threatens the former so much that it's in full backlash against the forces of change.

Felt Monster Finger Puppets
The other day, while browsing Pinterest, Little Crafter and I saw something we just had to make. They were adorable little felt monster finger puppets. Who could resist? Not us! Here's how ours turned out and how we made them!
- felt
- pinking shears {you could also use regular scissors if you don't have any}
- sewing machine and thread {again, you could hand sew if necessary}
- craft glue or hot glue
- assorted google eyes and pom poms {thanks to CraftProjectIdeas.com for ours}
STEP 1: Cut out two of whatever shape you want. Ours ended up all different; one was rounded at the top, one was a rectangle, and then LC decided he wanted Frosty the Snowman and a carrot. Go figure.
STEP 2: Stitch around the edges, leaving the bottom open.
STEP 3: Decorate! We used our CraftProjectIdeas.com google eyes and pom poms for eyes and noses, and we used felt, buttons, and fabric paint for other embellishments.
STEP 4: PLAY! Enjoy those monsters!
kids' crafts,

Over the years I think that I may have noticed a general trend in reenacting styles versus prior military background. However, being a scientist, I won't jump to conclusions without actually acquiring more definitive data to test my hypothesis against. Thus the below poll (besides I wanted to test the polling system).
Basically I wish to poll the readers about their primary reenacting style (mainstream versus campaigning) versus their prior military background. If you do both styles please pick the one that you do most often. Also, if you were a reenactor first who then later joined the military, please consider yourself a non-veteran unless your military service as caused you to change your primary style of reenacting. I am not discounting your service to the country but rather am focussing exclusively on how your service to your country has affected your choice of reenacting styles.
The options will be:
Combat Veteran - Primarily mainstream
Non-Combat Veteran - Primarily mainstream
No military service - Primarily mainstream
Combat Veteran - Primarily campaigner
Non-Combat Veteran - Primarily campaigner
No military service - Primarily campaigner
At the end of the polling, I will summarize the results and let you know whether or not my initial hypothesis was correct or not.
P.S. I know that posting only here may bias my results as this primarlly a Mainstream board so could a couple of the campaigners post a link to this poll over on the AC forum. Thanks.

The three-story, 80,000 square-foot building cost $15,072,285 to build with another $2.5 million spent to furnish and equip the facility. The Medical Technology Building will house the Dental Assisting, Medical Assisting, Orthopaedic Technology, Pharmacy Technology, Practical Nursing, Radiologic Technology, Respiratory Care Technology, Surgical Technology, Emergency Medical Technician and Paramedicine programs.
It includes 12 classrooms, two biology labs and a chemistry lab, as well as offices for faculty and staff as well as the academic dean of the medical related programs of study. Many of these programs had been housed in double-wide trailers on the campus, Peters noted.
He cited that contrast, from trailers to a state-of-the-art building, as well as the contrast in temperatures from the groundbreaking in 100-degree weather in July of last year to the near freezing temperatures Thursday morning. Bonnie Pfrogner, executive director of the Griffin-Spalding County Chamber of Commerce, said, "compared to the groundbreaking, this yankee girl appreciates the crisp, sunny day."
With this building, Pfrogner said, "Southern Crescent Technical College has made the move from being a success to being significant. This will be an asset to the county and to the surrounding area."
State Representative John Yates noted he's opened this building five times now in various stages.
"I look what's here now, it's fantastic," he said.
Yates joked, "it always thrills a 91-year-old guy to open a new medical building."
He said when he goes in for tests and check-ups, "I always ask the technician, where did you go to school. Most answer Griffin Tech or Southern Crescent."
Yates remembered opening of each building as the campus grew, and noted his own education began next door as he was a graduate of Spalding County High, Yates and fellow representative David Knight cited the need for the new facility.
"It's been a need of this community and this college for some time," Knight said. "For a long time this college has stood out. It bucked the trend, enrollment continued to grow."
Some of the speakers at Thursday's ceremony were also alumni of the college when it was Griffin Techical College, including County Commission Chairman Gwen Flowers-Taylor, J. Michaeal Brewer, who is chairman of the SCTC board of directors, and local businessman John Tidwell, whose company Impact Office Interiors sponsored Thursday's events and was the furniture contractor for the facility.
Tidwell said he obtained his GED from Griffin Tech at age 34 and took accounting classes. He said his wife, a nurse manager, also graduated and said his daughter would be attending too,
"I see opportunity people wouldn't have," he said of SCTC.
Flowers-Taylor said she began her nursing career at Griffin Tech. "I don't think they'll ever make a machine that will ask 'how are you doing?' and be able to read people's feelings."
She said, "I look forward to graduates coming out of this building to serve our community."
Brewer said he attended Griffin Tech for EMT training before changing careers. He's now county manager in Butts County and serves as chairman of the SCTC Foundation.

1) The Student Loan issue has been "solved" in that I now owe thousands of dollars to family and not to a collection agency that will randomly have my bank account frozen. We've also ending our banking relationship with the previous bank. Not because they froze my bank account on the 30th of the month. That bit I disagree with but understand. No, because I called them up to have them take money out of my account to apply to the loan, they took the money out of my account electronically and then froze my account for 10 days to see whether or not the money would clear. This was not what was discussed over the phone, and it makes no sense because the money was taken from my account before they froze it again. So, you know. I bank elsewhere now, and most of Don's investments have been moved as well. (The only things not moved are long-term investments that are locked in for another year, but those will go as well.)
2) Don's vocal cords are getting better! He saw the doctor, and this is what he says: "Whet he thinks is happening is that the nerves have come back but the ones that tell the cord to close and the ones that tell it to open are all firing at once. This is resulting in the chord mostly staying rigid which is why its worlds better but not 100% of pre surgery. The nerves might sort them out a bit more so that the chord starts to move a little more but the important thing is that its not going to get weaker." I know I've mentioned this before but having actual medical doctors say "yes, it's getting better, no, it's not a fluke, and it won't get worse" has been a huge weight off his mind.
3) My PhD apps are almost ready to go. I've got two more days for my UofA transcripts to arrive, but all of my letters of reference are packed and ready to go, as is my writing sample, CV, various bits of paperwork, thesis proposal, statement of intent, etc etc etc. The post office tells me I can have it shipped Priority Next Day AM if I get to the post office before 4pm Thursday. (The technical deadline for both universities is January 15th. [The last one is January 31st.] January 15th is a Saturday. *sigh*)
So, yay for me. Things are coming along nicely. Chapter 2 is doing really well. My sleep is a bit screwed up (I stayed up too late last night and thus couldn't get myself out of bed this morning to hit the Leg Library), but generally things are Good. My wee laptop is totally a goner, but I'm taking advantage of the university's computers. (Right now that's irritating me because there are many students here who have confused "quiet conversation" with "Make a lot of noise" but I just need to wait them out.) I'm a bit lonely (I misssssss youuuuu) but I've been working and reading a lot, so I guess that's good.

We were in Toledo during Semana Santa and would highly recommend this hotel. We booked two rooms, and they were excellent value. After looking at other reviews and the price, we were a bit worried that it wouldn't be nice, and the hotel exceeded our expectations. The rooms, bathrooms and wifi are all good. The desk people were very helpful.... More

They're Democrats – Don't Offend Them
"Remember they're Democrats – don't offend them," my wife has occasionally said to me, before we attend social events with known Democrats. Offend them? How could I offend them! I've stopped urinating in bathroom sinks years ago; I rarely spit chewing tobacco on carpets, I may have a few uncouth moments now and then, but nothing very offensive.
But those are physical behaviors, what about beliefs? Beliefs, in particular beliefs they do not agree with, can be highly offensive to Democrats. I'm a conservative, even if I didn't say anything conservative, if they just knew my political opinions, they'd be offended. To think, someone who still clings to his guns and religion, at the same party, the horror. Liberal media propaganda conditions Democrats to believe all Republicans are racist, sexist, Koch-sucking, homophobes. Democrats believe it too, propaganda is a powerful tool. read more »

Lost Hollow seems to be finding its way.
The newest addition to Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is closing in on $1 million raised to match a $2 million gift from Dot and Duke Kimbrell announced last spring. Planners expect to match the gift in full by the fall and begin construction on the children's garden, which should last about a year.
"We're in a really good position right now," said Kara Newport, garden executive director.
Last May the garden announced the $6 million project complete with a sunken pond, amphitheater, maze, bird viewing platform and other features. It would be the first major addition to the garden in five years. Since, it's been named Lost Hollow: The Kimbrell Children's Garden and further sketches have been made. The result will be something that's "like nothing we have here," Newport said.
"You're going to see it in a different way from all points of the garden," she said. "It'll be a whole different look."
A challenge for the garden will be incorporating castle, water and throne room features with what's already at the garden. There also will be a fireplace cave, aviary, European phone booth in a walnut grove and more. Artifacts from Daniel Stowe's personal collection will be included. Current brick paths will be continued, while adding concrete pavers, cobblestone and permeable asphalt in places.
"We're medieval-izing everything," Newport said.
What's still to be determined also is what will be a hallmark of the garden -- its plants.
"We don't know a lot yet about the plant list," Newport said. "That's really our story, at the end of the day."
Ted Hall, president of the Montcross Area Chamber of Commerce, believes the project will be a major addition to the garden, and a major addition to the area.
"Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is a tremendous economic asset, as well as a quality of life asset, to Gaston County and the Charlotte region, and the Kimbrell Children's Garden will be a spectacular addition," he said.
The last major addition was the Orchid Conservatory, which brought in "a new group of visitors" similar to what Hall sees the new garden accomplishing, this time young families, grandparents and grandchildren, more school and youth groups.
The recent holiday display at the garden brought in "tens of thousands to visit the Garden, with a large number also eating at local restaurants and spending nights in local hotels," Hall said.
"That's economic impact," he said, "and I look forward to seeing future reports of those numbers growing significantly when the children's garden vision is realized."
Landscape designer W. Gary Smith is working with the new project, along with design firm Sitework Studios out of Asheville, N.C.
So far the garden has $875,000 in gifts and pledges to match the Kimbrell gift, and planners "haven't really gone public" with soliciting money, Newport said. Naming opportunities are available for new features. During the estimated year of construction, fundraising will begin for the second phase.

Based on the semi-autobiographical novel, this Broadway musical version focuses on the four March sisters: the brassy, tomboyish, aspiring writer Josephine (Jo); hopeless romantic Meg; the ever-pretentious Amy; and kind-hearted Beth, as well as their beloved mother, Marmee.
The story centers on the sisters living at home in Concord, Mass., while the family patriarch, Mr. March, is away serving as a Union Army chaplain during the Civil War. Interjected with the scenes in which their lives unfold are several recreations of the melodramatic short stories Jo writes in her attic studio.
Director for "Little Women" is 24-year-old Jonathan Humble from Chattanooga. No stranger to the stage, Humble spent much of his youth with the Chattanooga Boys Choir and even performed at The Colonnade in several produc-tions. Over time, he developed a passion for being "behind the scenes" and although he was only 18 when he began his successful directing career, the ambitious Humble already has nearly a dozen productions under his belt at the Tivioli Theatre in Chattanooga, as well as The Colonnade.
Humble said the updated "Little Women" musical stays pretty true to the novel and the time period, so devoted literary fans won't be disappointed. He confessed that although "Little Women" was never a show he would've cho-sen, he was quickly won over by the project and said undoubtedly the musical aspect would be the key in bringing the classic back to new life.
"The first time I put the CD in and listened to it all the way through I was just blown away," Humble said. "It captured me. I think they did such an extraordinary job of making the story feel epic for the stage. You can tell the writers wanted to present it as the classic, but even though you're looking at a particular time period set and cos-tumes, the music and the songs give it a modern feel. It doesn't feel old; it feels entirely fresh and new."
Complete with a live orchestra, a talented blend of new and veteran actors and a two-story Victorian cutaway house, "Little Women" is recommended by Humble for the entire family.
"It's this great journey Jo goes on with her life and it's wonderful that we see the tragedy and the triumph to-gether," Humble said. "Every member of the audience can relate to the show because we all deal with the loss of loved ones and we all have dreams of wanting to make something out of ourselves and we want to be remembered for something. The story just draws you in."
Humble was hand-picked by Ever After producer Jan Daigle. Daigle who moved to Chattanooga from Maine in 2002 is a seasoned stage manager who began managing at The Colonnade in 2005. She recently formed Ever After Productions along with Humble in order to explore the other aspects of theater such as producing. Both Daigle and Humble are very dedicated to making "Little Women" a success for the community and are committed to making The Colonnade a successful venue.
"The Colonnade creates an opportunity for families in north Georgia to get out of the house and do something as a family," Humble said. "Nowadays people don't spend enough time as a family, so this is a wonderful, safe envi-ronment with quality shows."
Ever After has plans for two more productions in 2012. "Honk," the musical story of the ugly duckling, is sched-uled to hit the stage in June and the musical "Oliver," is set to run for three weeks in September. This will be Hum-ble's third direction of "Oliver," and he admits to having a bit of a soft spot for the show.
"I've done 'Oliver' at both The Tivoli and The Colonnade," Humble said, "and it's one of my favorites. I'm proba-bly most proud of it and enjoyed it the most. It has such a wonderful message of redemption and love and I'm really looking forward to bringing it back again."
Performances for "Little Women" are March 9, 10, 16 and 17 at 7:30 p.m. There will be matinees March 10 and 17 at 1 p.m. Ticket prices are: $15 for adults, $12 for seniors (age 55 and older), $12 for students, and $11 for groups of 15 or more. Please call 706-935-9000, ext. 103, for more information or visit the website colonnadecenter.org

Metaphorically speaking
Arthur Shelley on the role of metaphor in effective conversations and knowledge flow
Knowledge is like electricity: provide a conductive environment and it can enlighten. However, also like electricity, knowledge flows can be dangerous or easily disrupted through insular agents.
The greatest conductor of knowledge flows is face-to-face conversation between people in an environment of mutual trust. Although there are many media through which knowledge can adequately flow, they are just useful sideshows in comparison to the power of a trusted professional (or personal) network. People will willingly share their richest insights with trusted friends and colleagues and (justifiably) feel betrayed if these are further shared without their consent. How we engage in conversations both makes, and breaks, the relationships we have. Good conversations build trust, which in turn increases knowledge sharing. This leads to enhanced use (and further growth) of the knowledge and ultimately to increased performance (for all involved). Knowledge application and flow are very interdependent on a wide scope of complex factors with behaviour and mutual respect being at the top of the list.
I often rhetorically enquire of my students and clients Why do we move mountains for those we trust
and place them in the paths of those we dont?. Such questions do not need an answer as humans intuitively know. However, rich questions are the ultimate way to stimulate conversations that matter1. Such conversations are fundamental to optimise learning and professional development and can take us to places we never would have reached by ourselves. They lead us to new heights, fuelled by shared ideas that stimulate new patterns of thought and often generate new insights. Executive coaching and mentoring programmes are largely based around stimulating reflective conversations between coach or mentor and their client for this reason. It is far better to lead our colleagues through an emergent journey of discovery around unknown questions than to tell them what we believe the answer is. If we enter such a conversation with an open mind and willing heart, we usually emerge with richer insights, deeper understanding and stronger relationships with those we partnered in the activity.
The physical and emotional environment has a significant impact on whether a trusted conversation is likely to emerge and generate desired outcomes. It depends on who is (and is not) present, timing, the relationships between those involved, the level of participation and how the context was set. Context is important for the conversation to lubricate the knowledge flow. Everyone involved needs to know the purpose why are we engaging, what the desired outcomes and outputs are and how they will be used later (and by whom and for whos benefit). This is where metaphor and stories help us to engage. Metaphor and stories draw on our creative side and enable us to think outside of our established patterns. Games and role-plays have similar effects. They enable us to play and experiment a little, rather than stoically remaining in expected character. This authority to explore and behave outside our normal patterns softens the boundaries of our minds, enabling restrictions to leak out and new ideas and concepts to permeate in a contrived reverse-osmosis of the normal mindset.
For the most impact, agree which behaviours best match the context and purpose of the conversation. For example, a brainstorming conversation generates a list as an output; fun and insights as outcomes; and requires creative behaviours to be successful. This is a very divergent conversation in which analytical or critical behaviour is counter-productive. However, a risk assessment or prioritisation decision-making forum needs to be a convergent conversation, requiring analytical and critical behaviours and in which creativity is usually disruptive. My recent research2 investigating the influence of metaphor-based constructive conversations on behaviour has generated insights on how this works and why metaphorical conversation stimulates knowledge flow and improves performance. Participants describe how the metaphor interactions and games have provided them with new insights into their own behaviours as well as understand the behaviour of others. This has enabled them to take different approaches to remove knowledge flow blockages and build stronger relationships with stakeholders.
Start your next conversation with an appropriate metaphor and let me know how you get on.

Sim City, Will Wright's classic city building game will be getting a long overdue new edition in 2013 according to German games mag, GameStar.
The magazine quotes Maxis developer Lucy Bradshaw as saying that the fifth game in the series is already in development, but that work on other Maxis titles such as Spore and The Sims has kept it under the radar.
The game will reportedly use a new graphics engine known as GlassBox. This would explain why EA and Maxis are holding a special seminar at the Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco next week, entitled Inside the Glassbox, to debut a system �uilt from the ground up to power the next entry in one of [EA's] most beloved franchises.�/p>
Sim City 5 will apparently feature multiplayer modes, buildings that can be updated and non-linear roads.
It's been almost ten years since Sim City 4 came out in 2003, but the series has been kept alive through a handheld DS version, spin-off title Sim City Societies and, of course, The Sims 3.
A fourth entry in EA's top-selling Sims saga will release in 2014, it has been confirmed. The game will release in 2014 for PC and Mac. No console versions have been announced, but The Sims 3 soon found its way to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
The game follows hot on the heels of the rebooted and always-online multiplayer Sim City, but while hinting at social sharing features, EA notably refers to The Sims 4 as a "single-player offline experience". The Sims 3 introduced connected suburbs and a shared online world where you and your friends could overlap your Sim towns. What else could be added for a fourth game? For now, EA isn't telling.
"The Sims 4 celebrates the heart and soul of the Sims themselves, giving players a deeper connection with the most expressive, surprising and charming Sims ever," reads EA's announcement. "The Sims 4 encourages players to personalise their world with new and intuitive tools while offering them the ability to effortlessly share their creativity with friends and fans."
Present for the announcement were specially selected Sims fans, drawn from the game's community. Not only did these Sims ambassadors get to hear the news first, but they'll be given "special access" to the development team over the next year.

enterpriseCOINS: Opensource Economic Development for Education, Economic and Workforce DevelopmentCommunities and their regions have an unprecedented opportunity to integrate higher levels of organization, process and tools to connect legacy assets residing in colleges, universities, and libraries to people and their ideas; to reinvigorate institutions, organizations and government; and to strengthen creativity, collaboration, and communication for innovation and enterprise in education, economic, and workforce development. This paper begins a discussion of the value collaborative innovation networks (COINS) offer to accelerate and strengthen innovation in Open Source Economic Development (OSED) in the Civic Space, and to explore the design of an improved model of I-Open Civic Forums, a process driven approach to build networks, community, and communications for enterprise collaboration.

Intended Consequences Panel Discussion Video
Friday, August 7th, 2009Click below to see an excerpt from a panel discussion on the recently published book and Spring 2009 Aperture Gallery exhibition, Intended Consequences: Rwandan Children Born of Rape, photographs and interviews by Jonathan Torgovnik. The April 29, 2009 discussion, held at the Aperture Gallery, features Torgovnik explaining how he decided to go beyond his editorial project and started to document Rwandan women who were subjected to massive sexual violence by members of the Hutu militia groups during the 1994 genocide, and who all bore a child as a result. Since these women's testimonies all emphasized the importance of education, Torgovnik co-founded Foundation Rwanda, which uses photography and video as tools to raise awareness, support the enrichment of the children, and to provide psychological help for the mothers.
You can watch the panel discussion in its entirety, divided in six different parts, on the multimedia section of our website or by clicking on the links below:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Part 6
Commemorating the fifteenth anniversary of the Rwandan genocide, the panelists included the artist Jonathan Torgovnik; Carl Auerbach, Professor of Psychology at Yeshiva University; and Melissa Robinson, Director of Educational Programming of the non-profit organization Kids for Tomorrow. Rwandan women Marie Claudine Mukamabano, a genocide survivor, Rosette Burakari Adera, whose parents were Rwandan refugees, and Yvette Rugasaguhunga, read testimonies of the genocide survivors portrayed in the exhibition and book.
Fifteen years after the genocide, the mothers of these estimated 20,000 children still face enormous challenges, among them, being stigmatized within their communities for bearing a child fathered by a Hutu militiaman and the medical repercussions for those who contracted HIV through the violent attacks.
Torgovnick's work on this issue was also featured in Aperture magazine, issue 194.

Anaheim PD: Armed With A "High Caliber" Police Blog
Lots Of Good Content For A Police Blog
Anaheim Police Department really puts a lot of effort into their blog on WordPress. The site has a great looking header photo of department helicopter named "Angel" (how appropriate). The blog is easy to remember, listed as anaheimpd.wordpress.com. I know what you might be saying, "this doesn't really relate much to private investigative work, so why post it"? I'll tell you this, private investigators interact with police departments to retrieve police records, serve subpoenas on officers for criminal defense cases, contact the police during a surveillance investigation and sometime call for assistance on a case that gets "heated up". Having a good community resource is quite invaluable and a good blog like this is worth spreading the word about. Besides the blog, Anaheim Police has their own website, which is part of Anaheim.net.
Anaheim Police: "Zen Master" With Public Relations?
The blog shows real officers, real accomplishments within the community, and has a very warm feel to the content. Since the days of LAPD Chief William Parker, police have often been more secluded from the community, working in patrol cars and taking more of a distant approach to public relations. After reading some of blog articles, watching a few of their high quality videos on the side bar, I realized that the department really seems to enjoy their work in the community. They even brag about it, almost on a daily basis…this is a good thing.
Police departments sometimes struggle to balance the best interests of the community vs. the best interests of the department. Anaheim appears to maintain that balance, judging by what they post in their blog. I must say, Orange County law enforcement as a whole seem to be up to par when it comes to public relations. I've noticed at least one public relations officer from each department is assigned to this position on a full time basis. This is a real benefit for the news media and journalists, they have a direct point of contact who is trained to handle media inquiries. A big plus for the community.
The Department Honors Their Own
I remember an Orange County Register news article a few weeks ago which honored Sgt. Rick Martinez, the police department's Public Information Officer (basically their PR official). The article talked about how Sgt. Martinez had been an adviser for the Explorer program for 25 year. Police Explorers are program that gives youths the opportunity to explore law enforcement careers by working with local law enforcement agencies. The Sgt. was awarded a plaque by the Chief of Police and the Explorer "Post Number" (similar to a Boy Scout troop number) was changed to Sgt. Martinez's police badge number…what an honor. Read the OC Register article here.
Officers Contribute To Blog Articles
Before writing about this on the Orange County Private Investigator Blog, I read an article on Anaheim PD's blog about a former undercover officer recently getting a promotion to Patrol Sergent. His name is Sgt. LaRochelle, and he talks about his undercover experiences and how fighting crime can be both "ugly and rewarding", read about it here, it's titled New Sergeant Enjoys Ability to 'Positively Impact People's Lives'. I found it refreshing how actual officers took the time to contribute to the blog.
Videos Are Embedded In The Blog
I give this blog two thumbs up, very informative and really easy on the eyes with good content. Only thing I'd recommend to the blog administrators is to have the large header picture "clickable" to return viewers to the homepage. Before leaving the site, be sure to check out their video collection, the Tops Posts section, and the Breaking News press release page (at the top left corner of the homepage). Outside of the site they have their own Facebook Fan page and live Twitter feed within the blog. If anyone else has subscribed to this blog or knows the inside scoop on the Anaheim PD Blog, let me know or feel free to comment about it.
