A wrong turn for several runners could not spoil a strong turnout and beautiful weather for the 45th annual Race Thru the Redwoods 10-kilometer run last weekend.
Scotts Valley's Nick Heath, 16, won the 10-kilometer race in 40 minutes, 30 seconds. He was followed by Rodolfo Tovar, 32, of Salinas in 41:15 and 15-year-old John Ross of Scotts Valley (41:44). Sean Curry, 45, of Salinas (41:56) and Brent Wood, 28, of Tempe, Ariz. finished fourth and fifth respectively in the Sunday, Aug. 18 race.
Heath, a Scotts Valley High School junior, finished fourth in 2012, thus improving his finishing position.
"This was my favorite (race) so far," said Valoree Mills, one of the organizers from the Felton Business Association. "Seeing the kids run just made my heart sing."
The children's 1-mile fun-run featured 132 participants from 3 to 12 years old. The fun run was won by Chris Anderson, 12, of Santa Cruz in 5:57, followed by Jasmine Safarians, 12 of Pleasant Hill in 6:42 and Ryan Gomez, 9, of Scotts Valley in 6:53. Ten-year-old Tanner Wallace of Boulder Creek (6:56) and Daniel Cardenas, 11, of Ben Lomond (7:00) rounded out the top five.
The first woman to cross the finish line was Chen Lo, 30, of Downey who took 21st overall. The top valley woman was Lyndsay McKeever, 24, of Felton in 50:26 and 69th overall.
There was a bit of confusion during the 10-kilomter race as a volunteer along the course accidentally directed the top 20 runners past the entrance to a 1-mile loop on a maintenance road near the beginning of race that is needed to make the race a full 10-kilometers. All but the top three runners at the time were quickly turned around to resume the correct course, according to race director Jennifer Caro.
"I talked to a couple of guys who were turned around and they lost about 30 seconds," Caro said.
The lead three runners continued along the course, finishing the race in 5 miles, rather than 6.
"The volunteer wasn't informed," said Caro. "Since it was our guy, I took full responsibility."
The three 5-mile finishers, Zacharias Martinez, 15, of Marin; Nick Sherrell, 20 of Ben Lomond; and Lewis Anderson, 32, of Salinas, were understanding of what happened. Race organizers awarded them medals and refunded their race entry fees and offered free entry into the 2014 race.
"People understand that this is a fun race, it is not a precursor to get into the Boston Marathon," Caro said.
Runners were invited to eat at a pancake breakfast put on by the Felton Fire Team following the race. Race volunteers included the San Lorenzo Valley High School cross country team, the Scotts Valley High School Girls Soccer team and several members of the Santa Cruz Track Club.
A total of 463 participants completed the 10-kilomter race, down from 570 in 2012. However, participation in the kids mile jumped from 108 to 132.

This desk was what we were looking for to use as a computer desk for a small apartment. It was as described and easy to assemble; the top and drawer are 1 piece and the legs just had to be screwed on. The drawer slides easily and the finish was even. We had a piece of glass cut to protect the top from use. Unfortunately, the desk must have been dropped in transit and the back top corner was slightly damaged, but we didn't want the inconvenience of sending it back.
Not bad looking but not very useful. The finish on the desk chips off with the slightest pressure....like writing!
I purchased this desk after reading the reviews and was still shocked and impressed by the good quality and sturdiness of the desk. It is real wood and pretty heavy. It took no more than 15-20 minutes to assemble and it fits great in my small room. The drawer provides a good amount of storage, and is conveniently organized into different compartments. The one negative about the quality is that the paint scratches easily - not a big problem as long as you are careful and aware of this.
I like this desk. It's just what you see on the website. And the best part was that the drawer was pre-assembled and already installed in the desk. I had read reviews of other desks where the assembly was going great until the new owner had to attach the drawer and then they were tearing their hair out getting the drawer in, so I was happy to not have to deal with that frustration with this particular desk. The only downside for us was that on the underside of the desk there were six places for screws to attach the base but only 5 of the screws fit in (maybe the last hole wasn't drilled correctly or was mis-aligned), so we just left it like that with a missing screw. Otherwise this desk is perfect.
If you need a small desk for a small space, in a transitional style, this is a great desk. It is large enough for my laptop, docking station and 22" monitor and still has working space (notepad, beverage, etc.). It is a dark black with a single pull-out drawer (there are two handles and styling that makes it appear to be two drawers) which contains fixed dividers--one large compartment in the center and two smaller areas on each side for a total of five compartments. The inside of the drawer is painted, not felt. Assembly was easy and the desk feels strudy and very solid.
looks better than the pics. pretty easy to assemble
This desk rocks! It's perfect for limited space. Gives what you need to hold a laptop, lamp and a notebook. I was optimistic when I orderded and am thrilled to be typing this from my new home office space (the size of a doorway). Quality is good. It scrateches as much as a table I purchased from **** *** - also black laquered. Value is great. It's wood (not MDF or partical board) and the price point matches costs for building something on your own. It's a great find!
I purchased 2 of them last year. do not place any liquids (water, oil, etc) on the desk's top it will strip the finish. Use coasters! also do not move the desk too much i.e. moving from place to place or room to room....the left side of one of the desk snapped in half. There's no way to replace the split wood or leg. Wish the quality was better.
The desk looks good. But the construction is not good. I went through 3 deliveries hoping that the next one would be sturdy after assembly. Here is why they were not...Under the desktop, there are 2 wood brackets glued and screwed in place. The legs get attached to these brackets. The glue on these brackets dried out, and the screws are not long enough. So, these pieces are loose. So, when the desk is fully assembled, it is is wobbly. The solution, if you are so inclined, is to remove the brackets, sand off the dried out glue, and put a bead of a strong synthetic glue along the edge and screw them back in tight. Wait a day and then attach the legs. What a pain though.
We bought two of these and like it a lot...specially the pre divided drawer. It's good for small spaces....make sure you are not purchasing it for heavy duty use. If you are going to use this desk for several hours every day then it might show wear and tear easily and soon.....because I realized the paint job though nice is cheap....for our use its good enough. Putting it together was not a problem.

Pepsi's Diversified Revenue Stream Gives It an Advantage over Coke
Jacob is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Although PepsiCo (NYSE: PEP) is most commonly recognized for its flagship cola drink, the company has a diverse product line of internationally established beverages and foods.
International Developments
Pepsi is the largest food and beverage company in Russia following the purchase of Wimm-Bill-Dann in 2011. The aim of that acquisition is development of a $30 billion operation throughout Central Asia and Eastern Europe by 2020.
Pepsi also completed an arrangement in 2012 with Tingyi, which is one of the leading food and beverage companies in China. The agreement also called for co-branding of juice drinks under the Tropicana name. Despite recently slower growth in China, the country is expected to comprise the world's largest beverage market by 2015.
New Products
Introduction of Pepsi NEXT in March 2012 was intended to attract new cola drinkers using a formula with 60% less sugar than regular Pepsi. Unfortunately, Pepsi continued losing market share to Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO) in 2012. Diet Coke had already overtaken regular Pepsi as the second largest selling soda brand during 2010.
In response to criticism, Pepsi altered the blend of sweeteners in Diet Pepsi starting in January 2013. This move appears to convey an effort at Pepsi to boost sales of it top selling carbonated drinks.
A continuing focus at Pepsi is attracting consumers to its brands in the fast growing beverage category of non-carbonated drinks. Pepsi products in this group include products such as, Lipton, Aquafina, Tropicana, Gatorade.
In March 2012, the Frito-Lay division launched Doritos Dinamita tortilla chips, which are spicier than regular Doritos and rolled in the shape of a taquito. Packaging has names such as Chile Limon and Nacho Picoso.
Pepsi has also leveraged its Quaker Oats brand to promote healthy snack foods that eliminate trans fats. In 2012, the division introduced a new line of packaged oatmeal cookies. Later in the year, the product line was extended with the addition of Quaker Perfect Portions flavored instant oatmeal.
Promotional Efforts
A new marketing campaign called Quaker Up was launched in December 2012. Its aim is showcasing the nourishing qualities of Quaker Oats products. Components of the program include use of social media, crowdsourced marketing, a logo redesign, and Hispanic targeted themes.
Pepsi inked a sponsorship and promotional deal with singer Beyonce during 2012 and a long-term arrangement with the National Football League to sponsor Super Bowl halftime shows. New television ads have featured New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, singer Nicki Minaj, boy band One Direction, international soccer stars such as Lionel Messi, and television star Sofia Vergara.
Pepsi intends to spend around $500 million in 2013 for promoting Gatorade, Mountain Dew, and Tropicana in addition to Pepsi soda. Much of this spending will occur in North America, where Pepsi has lost ground to Coca-Cola. Promotional spending is also focused on the rising per capita beverage consumption for ready-to-drink teas, juices, sports drinks, and bottled water.
Third quarter 2012 revenue declined 5%, which reflects adverse foreign exchange factors. However, sales volume for snack brands was 6% higher and beverage volume increased 3%.
Despite lower sales volume in North America, Pepsi has a major presence in foreign markets. Approximately half of the company's revenue is generated outside the U.S. Third quarter 2012 sales in emerging markets were especially strong. Volume was 10% higher in the Asia, Middle East, and Africa unit. Sales of both beverages and snacks were robust throughout region, which included significant growth in the Philippines, India, Pakistan, Vietnam, and Saudi Arabia. The Latin American foods segment provided 13% volume growth. Beverage sales in Russia and developing Europe more than offset declines in Western Europe.
Another plus at Pepsi is its leadership in healthier products as a response to consumer preferences. The nutritional snack business is expected to reach $30 billion from the current level of $13 billion.
The competitive beverage market is dominated by a battle between Coke and Pepsi for shelf space. This duopoly reduces the ability of upstart sports drinks to gain broad exposure.
The mature snack food market presents Pepsi with few challengers to its market share. This leaves Pepsi with a principal objective to increase market size. That's the thrust behind rewarding consumers with new products.
Pepsi's revenue growth projection for 2013 is in the middle single digits. The company plans to allocate 5% of revenue to capital spending. Management allocated $6 billion to dividends and share repurchases in 2012. That year marked the company's 40th consecutive annual dividend increase. Based upon the stock price in early 2013, the dividend yield is around 3%.
Resilient growth over the past several quarters foreshadows high potential for Pepsi's fundamentals to improve over the long term. With a price of less than 15 times projected earning in 2014, the stock's valuation holds appeal. Pepsi has a favorable product mix, substantial international exposure, and high cash flow to support promotional initiatives. If the company meets its growth forecasts, contrarian investors should profit considerably.

NDSU in Perspective
A Bit of History
On March 8, 1890, the state's first governor, John Miller, signed the bill designating the land to establish a college of agriculture and mechanic arts, the North Dakota Agricultural College, as a part of the Morrill Act of 1862. In 1960, the name was changed to North Dakota State University.
The Graduate School
Graduate students were first accepted in 1895, and a formal announcement of graduate studies has been carried in the bulletins since 1902.
The Graduate School was formalized July 1, 1954, by approval of the North Dakota Board of Higher Education. Graduate studies were administered by a Graduate Council from November 1949 to June 1954, and before that by a Graduate Committee.
The first Master of Science degree was awarded in 1899. Since then, graduate students have been in regular attendance and have participated in the scholarly activity of the campus. The number of degrees awarded increased noticeably after 1920 and again after 1950 in reflection of general trends in higher education in the United States.
In 1959, the North Dakota Board of Higher Education first authorized certain departments to offer the Doctor of Philosophy degree. The first Ph.D. degrees were awarded in 1963.
NDSU Today
North Dakota State University is the state's first Morrill Act land-grant institution. Located on the state's eastern border in Fargo, North Dakota's largest city, the university strives to be a leader in information systems, technology transfer, economic development, and lifelong learning; and encompasses a broad spectrum of curricular offerings, scholarly activity, and service. It is one of two major research universities in an eleven-institution state university system.
NDSU has enjoyed steady enrollment growth for the past decade. Current enrollment is over 14,000 students on the campus in Fargo. Over 2, 100 are gradute students. NDSU also serves several thousand people throughout the state in continuing education and extension programs.
Instruction is carried out in nine academic units: the Colleges of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Natural Resources; Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences; Business Administration; Engineering and Architecture; Human Development and Education; Pharmacy; Science and Mathematics; University Studies; and the Graduate School.
NDSU has 44 doctoral and professional programs, 63 master's degree programs, 9 certificate programs and 102 bachelor's degree programs. The North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station and NDSU Extension Service are integral parts of the University.
NDSU participates in the Tri-College University consortium with neighboring Minnesota State University Moorhead and Concordia College. NDSU has approximately 1,500 staff members and 950 faculty and academic staff.
The Fargo-Moorhead Community
Named one of the most desirable places in the country to live by Money magazine, Fargo is quietly earning a reputation as a perfect place to make a home. Nestled in the rich farmlands of the Red River Valley, the Fargo-Moorhead community has many qualities that contribute to this reputation, including a highly respected educational system; advanced medical technology; a progressive business community; numerous cultural and arts opportunities; clean air and water; and good-hearted, friendly people.
With more than 163,000 people in the community and about 500,000 people in the service area, Fargo-Moorhead is among the largest metropolitan centers between Minneapolis and Seattle.One of the reasons people choose NDSU as a place to get a good education is that the F-M community provides students access to part-time jobs, internships, parks and other recreational facilities, entertainment, and cultural amenities.
Tri-College University
Tri-College University is a consortium of the three Fargo-Moorhead institutions of higher education: North Dakota State University, Concordia College, and Minnesota State University Moorhead. Through the Tri-College course exchange, students can take courses on the other two campuses without going through separate admissions procedures. Tuition is paid only to the home school. Guidelines are available in the general NDSU Bulletin and from the registrar.

Where Cavemen Store Their RV's
June 28, 2012 by Good Sam Team · 1 Comment
Winterizing your RV is a lot of work with zero payoff. Basically, you are just spending time "preventing" problems from. Realizing that I was going to be buried in RV related activities for the rest of the week, I longed to get away and jumped at the chance to go zip lining and hiking through caves for a couple of hours at night. I looked forward to a lot of fun and a chance to cool off from the 95 degree weather I was experiencing at 5 p.m. in the evening. I wasn't expecting to walk past RVs 50 feet underground. happening. Chalk that up with brushing your teeth, taking out the trash and other completely non-exciting things we do to make sure things don't go bad. It's not something most people long to do. So I couldn't help but be fascinated by the non-winterizing option I saw while I was at the Rally in Louisville this week: Storing Your RV in a Cave. Sure enough, as I walked into the entrance of the cave to the Louisville Underground, I was passed by RV's driving out.... [Read more...]
HOW TO ATTRACT BLACK BEARS (…and get a picture, too.)
June 10, 2012 by Professor95 · Leave a Comment
Even with the population of black bear increasing in Virginia, the possibility of seeing one is still an uncommon and exciting experience. These creatures can range from 90 to 500 pounds in weight and stand as tall as 7 feet when erect. Male black bears are naturally larger than females. Black bears are somewhat nocturnal, or crepuscular (active at dusk and dawn). Seeing one during the daylight hours is less likely as they are naturally afraid of humans and somewhat solitary animals. Black bears in Virginia are mostly vegetarian eating a variety of roots, nuts, seeds, berries, grasses, insects, and fruits. But, when given a chance to eat meats they will not hesitate. On our recent outing to Big Meadows campground in the Shenandoah National Park, the Rangers (now called Park Police) warned us to be careful, as there had been numerous sightings of black bears in the campground. This was exciting news to me – in over twenty years of visiting the park and campground, I had only seen... [Read more...]
Tips From A Therapist Making a Major Life Change After 50
May 30, 2012 by Diane Berry · 2 Comments
My husband and I have both been therapists for years and are making a cross country move from our home of 23 years in Wisconsin to Taos, NM. So what terrific coping skills have I developed in my work as a therapist that will make this, or any other major life change (ie. Retirement, RVing fulltime and giving up a brick and mortar home, caring full time for grandchildren, etc.) easier? There are a few ideas I can share with you: 1. First of all, just like climbing a mountain, I need to take one step at a time. Whether you are trying to come to terms with a partner retiring, or taking to the road full-time or moving to a new location, you will adjust better and more quickly if you can break the process down into steps and take one to them at a time. The first thing we needed to do was obtain a mailing address; in our town, this is via a PO Box. The first weekday of our trip out this spring, we made a trip to the post office to reserve our box. Three days later we could pick up our keys... [Read more...]

Yes, we are finally about to embark on our cross country move from Wisconsin to Taos, NM. We recently accepted an offer on our Manitowoc home and hopefully it will close without a hitch in May 30th. But moving after 50 seems more complicated and difficult than it was at 20. Our home in Manitowoc Is it that I miss the memories of my children growing up here? Yes and no. I love all the memories of raising our children in that home, but realize they are precious memories, not the reality of what I am living now. I am ready to live in a location that gives me more of what I want to do. That place is Taos. It has a multitude of hiking, camping and other outdoor activities. Terry and I will be able to find a new hike to do every day of the week if we so desire. And we will be able to find a new singer, band or lecture to listen to or restaurant that appeals to us as often as we will be able to afford looking for them. And for those times we must stay home, we will always enjoy the KTAO Solar... [Read more...]
Making a Major Life Change After 50
May 20, 2012 by Diane Berry · 3 Comments
I moved many times in my young adult life. I moved from home to college, college to law school in Madison, WI, from Madison to a new city in Wisconsin for my first job, then back to Madison for my husband's promotion, then to my hometown of Manitowoc, WI to raise my daughter when he wanted a divorce—all within a period of 10 years! However, since I met and married Terry in 1989, we have lived in the same house that we bought two weeks before our wedding—23 years ago. Our home in Manitowoc, WI Now, however, at the age of 53 and ¾ we are making the move to Taos, NM. We will be leaving behind everything we have known throughout our 23 years of marriage: our jobs, extended families, friends, running, biking, rollerblading and skiing routes, favorite camping destinations and the like. We are leaving. The reasons we are leaving are good ones. We "fit" in New Mexico somehow. In a town that accepts what anyone brings, we can be who we are. There is music, dancing (which is something... [Read more...]

Hanging out around a library wasn't exactly one of the most exciting items on my list of things to do Monday. But, it was President's Day and we were not that far from the William Jefferson Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock, Arkansas. Besides, admission is free on President's Day and I have never been one to pass up free admission to anything. In case you may have forgotten, Bill Clinton was our 42nd President serving two terms between 1992 and 2000. While he may be best remembered for his shenanigans with a young White House aide, it was during his presidency that we reversed a climbing federal budget deficit and created nearly twenty-three million new American jobs. No prior administration had overseen the creation of so many new jobs, or at such a rapid pace. Entrance to the Clinton Library The Clinton Presidential Library is situated in a new 30-acre city park located right on the edge of the Arkansas River in the revitalized River Market area of Little Rock. ...

The Most Romantic Disastrous Camping Trip Ever—Part 2
February 14, 2012 by Good Sam Team · 4 Comments
Read Part 1 So, there we were—no fire…raw, uncooked food…and a tent that looked like it was constructed by a team of drunk squirrels. Undaunted, my new young wife and I decided to make proverbial lemonade from our lemons. Since I had camped in the area many times previous, I knew of a backwoods café about 25 miles away, that usually stayed open as long as the owner stayed awake. Road Sign for the Restaurant--should have tipped us off! We piled back into the car and headed over, ravenous for a meal. Though I had camped in this spot before, I had never eaten at this particular café, as I had always been able cook my own food. Now, since we were prohibited from making a fire, and since we were too broke to buy our own camp stove, we had been forced to give this little backwoods restaurant a try. When we arrived at establishment, we realized that we were the only patrons in the café. As we ordered and awaited our dinner, out to the corner of our eyes we could see various people wandering...

Wild Dogs in the Village!! Part 1
February 8, 2012 by Hoby · 20 Comments
Wild Dogs in the Village! (Part One) It seems that many RVers are also "dog people," so I thought I would share my adventure. Looking back on this ongoing adventure, I find it interesting at how people who seem to have such a strong common interest (RVers, to be specific) can view the same situation so differently. The puppy of the two The adventure started one morning when I took my dog (a 16-year-old Maltese mix) out for her morning walk (well, at her age, and in the morning, it is tough to call it a walk, it is more of a mosey). Suddenly, out of nowhere, a young adult dog and a puppy came up for a visit. They were obviously interested in meeting my dog. Once I saw the body language of the two dogs, I gladly allowed them to visit with my dog. I noticed right away, though, that these two were not going to allow me to touch them. Soon they grew bored with such an inactive dog, and headed off to find another dog to play with. I continued my walk and it was not long... [Read more...]
A Romantic, Disastrous Camping Trip
February 7, 2012 by Good Sam Team · Leave a Comment
In the spirit of Valentine's Day, here is the story of the most romantic, disastrous camping trip I have ever had. When my wife and I were first married, we were poor. Dirt poor. The kind of poor where we thought how much does a kidney sell for on the black market? Yet, as broke as we were, we still managed to have fun and do nice things for each other once-in-awhile. For my birthday one year, my wife planned to surprise me with a weekend camping trip to one of my favorite spots on the west coast. Knowing how much I enjoyed camping and the outdoors (and plus camping is a inexpensive vacation), my wife secretly reserved a space in my favorite campground, shopped for my favorite camping foods, and packed our car for the weekend. Did I mention that we were poor? Previous to this trip, we had both thrown away our own tents and much of our camping gear. These were supplies that we had used throughout our childhood, and our tents had holes, our sleeping bags smelled of dead fish, and our camp... [Read more...]

January 8, 2012 by Professor95 · 2 Comments
WOW – Christmas came and went so fast it is hard to realize it was ever here! It's not like it was when I was a kid and the days, hours and minutes crept by slower than molasses dripping out of a jar on a cold day. Now, time just flies by – you know, ZAP! One day you are 20 and before you know it 40 is here. Then, blink your eyes and 65 appears. Don't believe me? Just wait and see (which I hope you will ). A lot of gifts were given and received. I gave Nancy a new Kindle Fire to replace the old (but still neat) B&W plain Kindle along with a big Amazon gift card so she can download plenty of new books. She is having a ball learning about the new features and of course, playing Angry Birds. Me? Well, I got everybody to stop giving me ties, shirts and socks years ago. Now, they know to give me tools, electronic gadgets, or gift cards to Camping World or Tractor Supply. I love them all! Oh, BTW – if you are a member of the Good Sam Club you are now...

The Omega Speedmaster Professional
Watches are quickly becoming my favorite things to shoot. The tiny mechanical intracacies are fascinating. What is even more exciting is the history behind the watches. Take this 1960's Omega Speedmaster. It has survived more than 50 years on the wrist, taking a daily beating. The detail of these worn time pieces is almost more beautiful than a new one. When you lay your hands on it you can feel the history of this particular piece. Where has it been? Who wore it? What has it seen? I love watches.
This Omega Speedmaster was part of the vintage collection at Analog Shift. Get other Speedmasters like it there.

U.S. Teachers Spend, On Average, Approximately 1,097 Hours Per Year on (Only) Instruction.
That means approximately 7,663 hours in the year are left unaccounted for.
Let's assume parents don't see their kids until 5pm. This might not be a proper assumption in a world where so many parents have to work two jobs just to make ends meet, but let's assume. So, two hours a day, for 6 days a week, for 52 weeks. That leaves 7,039 hours.
And we'll be nice and subtract hours that the children are sleeping and aren't necessarily aware of their surroundings. Assuming healthy kids, 8 hours of sleep…that leaves 4,119.
Let's assume those are hours spent around their family. It's a faulty assumption I know. So we'll adjust again - let's say the students are also accounted for in the summer by babysitters or summer camp. Three months, five days a week, 8 to 3 (we already accounted for the hours until five for the whole year with the working-till-five equation), that's subtracting another 420 hours. That's 3,699 hours.
I'm feeling so generous and realistic that I'm going to assume that parents work until seven, which with subtraction and rounding down leaves about 3,000 hours.
So if parents spend nearly three times as much time with their children as teachers do…
Why are teachers expected to be saints with no personal lives or shortcomings while parents can do whatever they'd like and be whatever they are without criticism?
Parents can have sex in the room down the hall. Parents can watch violent television with their kids playing in the same room. Parents can drink or smoke. Parents can cuss.
But teachers, or anyone who works or volunteers with kids, can't do anything in their private lives without the assumption that it will spill into the classroom. If a teacher is sexually active the kids will come home talking about orgies. If a teacher has a same-sex partner the kids will come home talking about sexuality. If a teacher is spotted in a bar they must be coming in drunk to class.
Someone explain to me why there is such an unfair double-standard. I'd like to know, so that I can one day be both a teacher and a human being without it leading to scandal.

This is wonderful. Great ideas to keep in mind about the broader sense of photography and taking pictures. - David Slone
"Perspective Is Everything"
As the sun broke through the clouds and I was about to take my shot, I was reminded of an important lesson in photography a good friend taught me years ago. He would always tell me to try moving to the left or to the right or walking around my subject. Those words couldn't have been more perfect in this situation because just moving to the left of the two donkeys created this very funny picture.

Valley of the Dolls (1967) by Mark Robson
There is some special kind of magic in the musicals, that touches us very deeply. "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" is a very special and unique film, every word in the script is sang. But even more important is a love story with a heart breaking and realistic end.
- Les Parapluies de Cherbourg (1964) .
That's exactly how I see Marilyn, beautiful and sad.. The Misfits is one of the best Marilyn's works.
- The Misfits 1961
This character earn their money by hunting horses and selling them for dog food. Roslyn just can't resist seeing a beautiful and noble creature being hunted down cruelly. After seeing this scene from The Misfits you just have to recognize what an amazing actress Marilyn was.
The only one that achieved to outdance and outcharm The King himself , was Ann- Margaret. This cute redheads' moves and Viva Las Vegas made music movie history, like the only decent Elvis Presley movie.
- Viva Las Vegas - 1964
The best wedding crashing scene ever! This scene is the esence of a dramatic love scene. And two young lover that escape from the church locking their families in with a GIANT cross. It just the coolest movie ever about cougars.

Garden Update: The Vegetables are Planted!
We did it! We put those cute little seedlings in our tilled and enriched soil and we're on our way to a glorious summer filled with fresh produce (fingers crossed, breath held...)!
We had a great reader tip (thanks knorqkitchen!) to check out the square foot gardening method. We think this would have been the way to go for us this year, sounds straightforward and completely unintimidating for the beginner...unfortunately we had already started plopping our plants in the ground.
In the meantime, we've ordered the book to prepare for next season. We'll let you know what we think.
3 Comments
Where did you buy your seedlings? Are you using heirloom?
i bought them mainly at the OSH nursery, home depot and our local corner nursery. nothing fancy or special this year because most were mainly impulse purchases, but i hear berkeley horticulture has an amazing selection. plan to check it out in the near future...
Man, I still have snow on the ground...

© Copyright 2014 Gwinnett Daily Post
LOGANVILLE -- A Grayson High School student is facing several charges, including two felonies, after an apparent domestic incident Wednesday on school grounds.
Police have charged 18-year-old Charles Bailey with criminal trespass, terroristic threats, obstructing an officer, disrupting school and battery in the morning incident.
According to reports, Bailey "caused a fight" with his 30-year-old guardian that caused visible bruising and swelling. Police said Bailey then kicked out the passenger-side window of the victim's 1992 Honda Accord and damaged the rearview mirror, windshield and dashboard.
A school resource officer said Bailey was "very violent" and approached her, once cuffed, in "an aggressive manner."
The charge of terroristic threats stems from Bailey allegedly telling the officer that if he had a gun, he would "go into the office and take care of everyone at his residence or (the Division of Family and Children Services)."
A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday morning.
Bailey remains in jail on $6,500 bond, jail records show.

At the time, Jesus' followers were "Just the Twelve of Us," and we read that he sent the twelve disciples out two by two, ordering them only take a staff, sandals, and one tunic. He specifically told them not to take any food, money, or change of clothes. Whenever I read this passage, I'm reminded that, whatever it means to follow Jesus in the 21st century, more is required than merely believing doctrines about Jesus or admiring acts that Jesus did 2,000 years ago. The way of Jesus is a way of being in the world, and in this case it was a way of being in the world that required traveling light and being dependent on the hospitality of strangers because you had no food or money or change of clothes.
Jesus next says somewhat curiously, "Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave the place." Well, obviously, if you enter a house, there's no other option but to stay in the house until you leave the house. But, as you may have already guessed, when Jesus says, "Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave the place," the words 'house' and 'place' contain different meanings. Instead, I believe Jesus is pointing the disciples back to being reliant in each place that they visit on hospitality from one particular family. Instead of going to a different house each night, the disciples are to stay in one house until they are ready to go to another place. Staying in one place allows them to develop a relationship with at least one family in each place they visit in addition to the other, less intimate relationships they are forming through their daily preaching and healing.
For us here at Broadview Church, there are a number of invitations. One is a reminder that we should not try to do everything individually, which is why Jesus sent out the Twelve in pairs instead of alone.
Second, Jesus' emphasis of making yourself vulnerable and dependent — no food, money, or change of clothes — reminds us of the central importance of both offering and receiving hospitality. And notice that both role of host and the role of guest are central to the way of Jesus.
As we read the Gospel of Mark — or any of the other Gospels — our natural tendency is often to be most sympathetic to the position of Jesus and the disciples. And I think you can make a convincing case that one of Mark's central narrative goals is for the reader to identify with Jesus and the disciples so that your reading experience itself becomes a call to follow Jesus. But for the way of Jesus to work, you need not only followers willing to sell everything they have, follow Jesus, and be commissioned to go out two by two. You also need householders who are willing to serve as hosts to these radical followers as they move from town to town. And I invite you to consider that, for the most part, we and most of the people we know have more in common with the householders — being invited to practice hospitality — than we do with the disciples, who have sold everything to follow Jesus with only a staff and no luggage, money, or other identification.
Now, as many of you know, I am in many ways a pragmatist — which means I'm interested in asking, "What works?" "How did our actual experience differ from what we expected beforehand?" "What do we need to revise in light of testing our hypothesis in the crucible of reality?" So, then, notice what happens during the Feeding of the 5,000 — keeping in mind that the disciples have only just returned from their mission of spreading the good news of the kingdom of God without food, money, or a change of clothes. They've been forced to survive solely on the hospitality of others. So what do they do when faced with a hungry crowd? They say, "Send them away so that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy something for themselves to eat." Nice. And I can almost see the look of exasperated disbelief on Jesus' face when he stops them and says, "You give them something to eat." It's like, "Hello! Have you learned nothing?!" But the disciples are unswayed and protest, "Are we supposed to cater a meal for 5,000 men, plus the women and children?" But Jesus, continuing to practice the kingdom model he is trying to teach the disciples, does not expect them to have money. He knows they don't have any money; he just sent them on a mission without money!
So what is happening in this passage? I think Jesus is turning the tables on the disciples, as it were. They have experience being hosted at the table of others, so now he is inviting them to experience the role of host. Jesus tells them, "Go and see how much food you already have," and they report, "Five loaves, and two fish." Jesus, then, in a manner that will be recapitulated at the Last Supper takes the bread, blesses it, breaks it, and gives it to both his disciples and the crowds to share.
And I invite you to consider this morning that what happened was not a violation of the Law of Conservation of Energy, which says that "matter may be neither created nor destroyed." Instead, I think that the disciples' act of sharing their five loaves and two fishes inspired members of the crowd to begin sharing the food they had brought in a sort of domino effect — such that more and more people kept sharing until, not only had "all eaten and been filled," but also they ended up with leftovers![1]
Notice also the further implication of this event: Jesus has demonstrated to more than 5,000 householders, who are sympathetic to his kingdom of God program, about the miraculous power of hospitality and sharing. He has, in effect, planted seeds about the fruit of hospitality, and he has created up to 5,000 potential households that may be sympathetic when his disciples show up on their doorstep in the future with no food, money, or change of clothes — that is, with only a message of hospitality, healing, hope, and grace. Recalling Jesus' Seed Parables from Mark chapter 4, Jesus is, in essence, through inspiring this act of food sharing, tilling the soil of both the disciples' souls and the souls of the householders in the crowd. He is taking the rocky, thorny soil of greed, anxiety, selfishness, and scarcity and creating "good soil" — which he described as "yielding thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold." It is this good soil of generosity and compassion that, with only the smallest encouragement, can suddenly inspire sharing on a level that can feed more than 5,000 people. You'll recall that Jesus ended that parable with the words, "Let anyone with ear to hear listen." And in Mark 6 we see that at the Feeding of the 5,000 both the disciples and the crowd did listen and share. And the result was miraculous and God-inspired, although I would argue not magical — but only emblematic of what is always possible whenever individuals and groups open themselves to the transformative power of putting the love of God and neighbor into practice.
In closing, I offer you one final reflection. After worship, we will further discuss the upcoming Blessing of the Animals, and consider how we can continue to spread the word to those who may find our way of being church to be good news. To set the tone for those reflection, I invite you to hear this short excerpt from the writing of marketing consultant Seth Godin titled, "I need you to see things my way":
I need you to see things my way. And that's the frustration of the marketer or the artist who hasn't figured out how to navigate critics and the marketplace. If you need the validation and acceptance and patronage of everyone you meet, you'll get stuck, and soon. Everyone isn't going to get it. Everyone isn't even going to get you, never mind what you sell. Experienced marketers and artists and those that make change understand that the new is not for everyone. In fact, it's not even for most people. Pass them by. They can catch up later. It's not a referendum, and you don't need a unanimous vote of acclamation. No, you merely need enough to stay in business, to keep moving, to make a dent. And then your idea can spread. If the kids in the back of the bus/audience/store don't get it (or don't get you) it's their loss. Focus on those that want to celebrate the work you do instead.[2]
Jesus experienced this same dynamic, which is why we often hear him say, "Let those with ears to hear listen."
As we continue to live into who God is calling us to be as individuals and as Broadview Church, we are not locked into the traditional model of attracting people by catering a meal for more than 5,000 people. Instead, we can model a way of sharing and hospitality in which everyone may not get a $50/plate dinner, but everyone will get enough. And, when we refrain from hoarding, we find that enough is as good as a feast. We may even rediscover a lesson both as old as the ages and as simple as the kindergarten sandbox: that by honoring God's way of sharing and hospitality everyone paradoxically gets filled and there are leftovers in abundance.

A couple of years ago, I lived just off an urban area known for deviance. My room was on the 3rd floor fitted out attic space of an old house. One night, I was trying to go to sleep watching youtube or a movie and then I felt something larger than a human touching me as I lay on my stomach. It was creepy playful and was pressing down on me. I was actually able with all my might push it away. It took about 2 seconds before it was back on me pressing and fondling. I could not see it. I was yelling at it. It eventually went away.
It happened two nights in a row.
After that I became hyper sensitive to all kinds of seemingly innocuous happenings in close proximity
Many years ago I had a voldemort like figure at my bedroom door just looking at me inquisitively blinking its large red eyes and rotating its head. All of a sudden it opened its mouth with pointy teeth and tried to suck my tilted and floating body into itself
