One of the most rewarding conservation initiatives I've been involved with in recent years is supporting the efforts of members of the Friends of Kinangop Plateau to halt the conversion of natural grasslands around Nairobi (Kenya) – home to the rapidly-declining Sharpe's Longclaw – into cropland. I've posted many times about the project and the work I did on visits to Kinangop Plateau over the last few years, and have created a 'gateway page' which explains the project, looks at the participants, and goes into more detail about the very real threats to the beautiful Sharpe's Longclaw: please go to http://www.talking-naturally.co.uk/fokp/

The Friends of Kinangop Plateau (FOKP) for Biodiversity conservation is a CBO in the wider Nyandarua in Central Kenya, but with active group and offices in Kinangop District at Njabini ATC and Nyandarua South at Murungaru Community Learning Center. FOKP is a site support group (SSG) supporting Important Biodiversity Area (IBA) number 4, the Kinangop Highland Grassland that neighbors IBA number 1, the Aberdare Forest.
Site Support group approach is a method used by Birdlife International to deliver sustainable environmental conservation globally. The group is committed to biodiversity conservation and particularly of the Endangered Sharpe's Longclaw Macronyx sharpei that is a specialist of the highland grasslands of Kenya. These and other fauna are losing habitat through human activities including change of land use, subdivision and recently planting of exotic tree species.
"These challenges are daunting because almost the entire plateau is under private ownership, with strong social and economic forces driving grassland degradation, conversion and fragmentation. An increase in human population (from immigration as well as intrinsic growth) is leading to sub-division of farms." Says Dr. Muchai the Head of Zoology department-National Museums of Kenya on his research publication paper 'Habitat selection and conservation of Sharpe's longclaw (Macronyx sharpei), a threatened Kenyan grassland endemic'- Biological Conservation 105 (2002) 271–277.
This is evidenced in all the locations where the Kinangop Highland Grasslands fall. There has been a constant change of land use. Grasslands fields have been converted for cultivation of potatoes, wheat, cabbages and exotic plantations especially eucalyptus.
However, all is not lost. Kinangop have continued to get attention locally and internationally.
Efforts of the group members have continued to bear fruits as awareness levels have continued to rise. Current partnerships have continued to strengthen with new ones established. David, Luca, Janice and Charlie have continued to give support to the groups' activities. DOF have been on the ground to document what the members are doing; this will be published through DOF's website and Nature Kenya's. It is expected that this will reach out to more people. US Embassy have invited the group to exhibit at the Embassy after successful implementation of the funded project to purchase modern equipment. NABU (Birdlife German) and Nature Kenya have supported the marketing of the products through facilitation of the Crafts of Africa annual fair. World Land Trust have made follow-up after helping purchase the third Sharpe's Longclaw Reserve in North Kinangop.
Members of Friends of Kinangop Plateau have continued to run environment conservation programmes. Of most importance is the annual monitoring of the Sharpe's Longclaw and the habitat. Wet season monitoring was done in August in the different sub groups. From the visits, coded farms have experienced changes of land use. For instance four farms have been completely converted in the last one year in Magumu including more than 100-acre-plot along the Nairobi-Nakuru highway which was stop over for tourists. It is not clear the trend of the individuals from the raw data but there is reasons to suspect persistent decline.
Njabini Wool Spinning and Weaving workshop have also continued to reach out to the farmers as well broadening its network and market scope. Over the last four months, they have been able to participate in two agricultural field days. One on the 6rd-7th Oct at Njabini Agricultural Training Centre, this is always a good platform to meet with the local farmers and exchange views. In the two day event more than 2,000 attendants are recorded each year. This includes local school kids and secondary students. A regional for the Nyandarua County followed on the 24th Oct at Olkalou.
On a national level, two representatives Jeff and Lucy went to exhibit at the 6th Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) Scientific, Technological and Industrialization Conference themed "Science, Technology and Innovation Towards Sustainable development" This was as after one professor at the university saw the work of the Njabini Workshop at Olkalou. Here other than meeting out people, there were sales of scarves and two rugs.
This was on the 17th and 18th Nov which was followed by the annual Crafts of Africa at Sarit Centre on the 23rd -27th November. This is was made possible courtesy of NABU who paid for the stand (KES 20,800) and Nature Kenya who supported the upkeep of the two participants for the five days. This was one of the most challenging fairs and yet very critical. With more than five other weavers who had rugs to compete with, the Workshop managed to sell one big rug and attract many people who expressed interest in making orders. This is because it was very clear that that was group work and there were no middle men. Connection with the conservation of the Kinangop was a very unique selling point. Scarves attracted most people with a peak over the weekend where buyers turned in good numbers. This was very helpful in understanding the weaknesses of the group as well getting to know the strengths. There is potential in big sized rugs but there is a weakness in designs. There is more that needs to be done on dying and colour combinations.
To encourage bird watching as a hobby, the youths of Friends of Kinangop Plateau have continued to organize bird walks in and around Kinangop. In the last months, the youths have done bird watching in all the different habitats and around Kinangop. This improves the members' bird identification skills as well as nurturing interest in nature.
In a bid to improve capacity of the members with the growth and development of the Njabini Wool spinning and Weaving Workshop, Margaret have just concluded a two weeks training in business management which was kindly supported by Mr. David Fox and the family. With just few weeks after completion, there has been marked improvement in maintaining and tracking the records of the workshop. At individual level, Margaret has undergone a transformation that was not expected of the training. She has developed a huge interest in learning basic use of computer which she has all along ignored even after endless persuasion, now she is learning computer at her free time, thanks once again to David and Family for availing one to the workshop. This will go a long way in improving communication and management of the workshop.
From the training she learned general book and record keeping, preparation of profit and loss account, fixed asset registry, cash flow and projection, trial balance and financial statement. We also bought all the books of original entry as advised by Margaret after training. We also bought a reference book; "Management Accounting" by Terry Lucy.
Njabini Workshop is also starting a small garden that will be based on the three principals of the dyers garden; economy, ecology and education. This garden will be used primarily as source of natural dye which will be used to dye wool, thereby improving the uniqueness of the products. This will be largely used for scarves, hats and other small products. Several other gardens will be established in schools and other institutions. In this case, the gardens will be used to educate children in color extraction and arts. This will help preserve the cultural knowledge.
To enhance networking and reaching out for more people and potential buyers, we have developed a simple website to market the products. This is after a two days training by Google Kenya. http://kinangopwool.kbo.co.ke
As you are aware, the Njabini is housed by the Ministry of Agriculture under the Njabini Agricultural Training Centre. This has been a very good set-up but the current principal does not seem to like our presence. We are required to move from the area by Feb. In a letter dated 28th Nov, we are given a three months' notice. This has left us with a lot of concern since we had created a very good foundation. We are still consulting as the group leadership to see the best way forward. This we shall try to communicate as soon as possible. However, the options are quite limited considering that moving to a rental house may not an easy option. With that we welcome suggestions and ideas that we can try to pursue.
We take this opportunity to pass our heartfelt gratitude to all the individuals and organization who have continued to encourage FoKP and the Kinangop community through their continued support either in cash or kind.

Irish Etiquette Tips
Ireland is a very friendly place to visit, with fairly relaxed etiquette. However, there are a few topics to steer clear of when socializing and there some specific table manners that are considered polite, so read up on some Irish etiquette below!
1. Dress Attire
- DO dress modestly, if you wish to blend in. Bright colors aren't typically worn in Ireland. Subdued colors, tweed, and wool are more common.
- DO wear a suit for business meetings. Women wear skirts and dresses more often than pants.
2. Table Manners
- DO use the small plate next to your dinner plate for the peelings of boiled potatoes.
- DO eat everything served to you if eating at someone's home.
- DON'T refuse a drink unless you absolutely must. It could be considered
3. Tipping
- DO tip at least 10% at a restaurant. A tip will usually be included in the bill for bigger groups.
- DO tip hotel porters 1 Euro a bag.
- DO round up to the next Euro when paying a taxi driver.
4. Gift Giving and Accepting Gifts
- DON'T give expensive or flashy gifts.
- DON'T give lilies, which are for religious occasions. Avoid giving red and white flowers, which symbolize death.
- DO politely refuse a gift when it's first offered. When giving a gift to someone, expect them to do the same.
5. Greetings
- DO shake hands with everyone present upon meeting, and maintain eye contact. Shake hands again upon leaving.
6. Visitors Etiquette
- DO bring a little something for your hosts, such as flowers, chocolate, cheese, or wine.
7. Business Meeting
- DO try to have a third party to initiate business.
- DO be on time, but don't expect your Irish colleagues to be punctual.
- DO exchange business cards.
- DO practice your golf skills beforehand! Business is often conducted on the golf course.
- DO be patient. Long-term planning and agenda-following are rare.
8. Socializing and Conversation
- DO be friendly. When walking around small towns and villages, it's common to say "hello" to everyone you pass by.
- DON'T confuse Ireland with England. The Irish are proud of their cultural differences with England, so steer clear of making any comments that could be seen as offensive.
- DON'T discuss religion. It's a very sensitive subject to many Irish.
9. Pub Etiquette
- DO ask for a glass of something if you want a half-pint, though pints are more the norm.
- DO understand that asking for a "drop" of something (i.e. whiskey) means that you're actually asking for a glass of it, not simply a drop!
- DO buy drinks for people. If someone has done you a favor, ask the bartender to send over a drink. They don't have to tell who it's from. It's also common to buy drinks for musicians playing in a pub.
- DO learn the Irish system of buying âroundsâ. Itâs considered rude to leave the pub before buying everyone in your âroundâ a drink.
Although Ireland is a very laid-back place to visit, you'll blend in much better if you know a bit about their etiquette. So leave the loud clothes at home, pack some tweed clothing, and be prepared to have a pint or two. Have a wonderful trip to Ireland.

WTB Vigilante TCS Tire - 27.5in $72.95
A new way to roll.
Nicely proportionate blocks and spacing allow the 2.3in-wide WTB Vigilante TCS 27.5in Tire to excel in loose and wet all-mountain conditions. As the most aggressive 27.5-inch offering from WTB, the Vigilante features square-edged lugs with siping in order to boost traction.
This helps them claw over broken rocks and wet roots alike, as does WTB's Dual DNA rubber compound and a 60 TPI casing. A 60a durometer center is plenty tacky for damp mountain soil, but not so soft that a day shuttling in desert heat is going to rip the tread up. At the sides, 50a durometer rubber comes into play.
The softer, slower-rebounding, rubber works with shifted side knobs that are siped in order to improve control and grip at the limit. For security, WTB employs its TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) to create a lightweight, sealant-based tubeless casing with a positive bead and rim hook joint that prevents burping and air loss.
The WTB Vigilante TCS 27.5in Tire is UST compatible, with the use of sealant, and it's available in a 2.3-inch width. Please note that this tire does not include either tire sealant or rim tape.

NFL Preview: Analysis of all 32 teams
Check out our NFL preview, with a look at all 32 teams entering the 2013 season.
Image 9 of 32
HOUSTON TEXANS( Scott Halleran, Getty Images / August 17, 2013 )
Last Season: 11-5, 8-4 division
Playoffs: Lost to Patriots in second round
Stat Leaders: QB Matt Schaub (4,008 YDS, 22 TDS, 12 INTS); RB Arian Foster (1,424 YDS, 15 TDS); WR Andre Johnson (1,598 YDS, 4 TDS); S Glover Quin (84 TACKLES, 1 SACK)
The Buzz: Matt Schaub is a capable game manager with a strong arm, but he is not a mobile quarterback and didn't score any rushing touchdowns last season. Schaub's limitations make star running back Arian Foster even more valuable to the franchise. Andre Johnson is Schaub's preferred target and returns to the lineup, but he has had injury issues. Should Johnson miss any time, former Clemson receiver DeAndre Hopkins could take on a bigger role in the Texans' offense. Houston is expected to field a strong pass defense despite the loss of safety Glover Quin to Detroit, with J.J. Watt and Ed Reed putting heavy pressure up front.
Luck Factor: Houston fans are lucky they chose to back the Texans rather than the Dallas Cowboys. While the Cowboys have struggled the past few years, Houston has quietly built the Lone Star State's strongest franchise.

Taking Vengeance Out of the Death Penalty
I recently came across an article detailing the ways in which lethal injection is changing – and not for the better. The author, Andrew Cohen, quickly connects the advent of various technologies to methods of execution techniques (fire/burning heretics, carpentry/crucifixion, electricity/electric chair, chemistry/lethal injection, etc.) and then claims that it is science that the modern world has been hiding behind:
By purporting to ease the suffering of the condemned as he is killed, the procedure is supposed to neutralize concerns that any particular execution is "cruel" under the Eighth Amendment. And by purporting to put the prisoner to deep sleep first before the poison was administered, the practice is supposed to assuage whatever guilt exists in the minds of the executioner, or the administrator, over the intentional taking of life. We hide behind science, in other words, and then pat ourselves on the back for our ingenuity.
Cohen's overall message in the article is that these two "pillars of support for lethal injection," removing any cruelty and assuaging the guilt of the executioner (or guards, or Governor…), are about to be toppled. Because of a shortage of an essential drug, Pentobarbitol, used in the initial stages of the execution to put the condemned to sleep, some states have been searching for replacements with unfortunate and sometimes horrifying results. Even if lethal injection were to continue without issue, Cohen argues, execution is still execution and there's no way to get around it.
Making executions tidier does not make the dead any less dead or those who authorize the poison any less culpable for taking life. It is the act of capital punishment itself, not just the manner in which it is carried out, that carries the moral force. And no human development, no magic pill, no sterile syringe, can change that.
Though it is never specifically articulated in the article, there is a tension between the seriousness of taking another person's life and the general attitude of the citizenry – especially the victims of a given crime – toward those being executed. The culture and language surrounding support for the death penalty is often one of vengeance or, at best, an over-inflated sense of justice; one in which an individual can determine that another individual deserves to die.
I don't deny that there may be a natural inclination (in an unredeemed sort of way) toward revenge or payback. We see it throughout the Old Testament across nearly every ancient culture, yet in a civilized society such as our own, we still appeal to the concept of eye-for-an-eye. Not only are we as Christians called to forgive our enemies, but also to follow Christ's example on the cross where he did not reciprocate hate and violence, but absorbed it.
Fourteen years ago, I was in confession, listening to the visiting priest counsel me on my many sins. For my penance, the priest told me to pray for the conversion of Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma City bomber who was scheduled to be executed sometime in the upcoming months. Surprised, I ask the priest why he would suggest that as a penance. He responded, saying, "Can you imagine what would happen if he embraced God and asked for forgiveness?" So I prayed. I recall looking through the Dallas Morning News on day he was executed, looking for any account of a last minute conversion. Instead, I found a quote from a man, a family member of a bombing victim, who watched the execution via closed circuit TV:
The camera was right above his bed and he looked right into it. I felt like he was staring right at me. And I could see in his eyes that if he could, he'd do it all over again.
That quote has stuck with me, largely because of the wholesale emotional projection and ridiculousness bundled into it. I felt sorry for the man who said it, that clearly there were issues much deeper than McVeigh still being alive. Cohen quotes a victim's family member responding to a question about possible terror or suffering the inmate might experience during execution: "He is being treated far more humanely than he treated her." That's the thing about eye-for-an-eye; it's supposed to hurt.
Can someone actually determine that another person deserves to die? Honestly, I think what one person deserves over another is such a complex abstraction that it's impossible to find any conclusion. What's the one thing all human persons deserve? Hell; let's move on from there. If we don't receive what we deserve, it is only because of God's grace. If God's grace preserves us from what we truly deserve, isn't the untimely death of anybody a usurpation of the work of God's grace in their life? After all, that's what makes murder wrong in the first place. Again, what human can judge a person to be deserving of death? Interestingly enough, the Catechism's instruction on the death penalty doesn't even mention such a thing:
2267 Assuming that the guilty party's identity and responsibility have been fully determined, the traditional teaching of the Church does not exclude recourse to the death penalty, if this is the only possible way of effectively defending human lives against the unjust aggressor.
The paragraph continues, emphasizing that the opportunity for redemption must not be removed through execution, but it's easy enough to see that the criteria is based on a continuing threat to society rather than past deeds. Another way to look at it would be that it doesn't matter if a person deserves to die or not, since they're a continuing danger to other humans, they'll be executed.
What's rather bizarre is that in our progressively secular-humanist, atheistically-scientific culture, capitol-level justice seems to revolve around the intangible articulation of what a person deserves rather than a much more objective assessment of how dangerous they continue to be. If this is the only determination, that the prisoner is an enduring threat to those around him, how would this affect society's preference for vengeance – and should the executioner then fear his office?
Let me know below in the comments.
1 Comment
The primary purpose of any punishment is to redress the crime or the disorder introduced by the offense. All other reasons are secondary, e.g. protection of the public, or to deter future offenses. The DP is the only true form of justice a state can enact for one that takes an innocent life. Any other form of punishment would not bring true justice since the crime would not be redressed in a proportionate way, per CCC 2266. The DP, when all doubt is removed concerning the crime, should be used and used in a timely fashion. The dignity of life is enforced when we demonstrate how important the life was that was taken innocently. We seem to forget the life taken and only focus on the one that took it. The murderer should be given ample time for repentance. The Church teaches that the best penance given to a murderer is to take his life. If he accepts the penance and repents, he shall then enjoy life eternal with God. There are many examples of this in the Church history. The primary purpose of justice is to redress the crime. We have lost this aspect in our secular world because we have divorced ourselves from spiritual realities. The more we become secular, the more we focus on the life on this side of the divide. The Church, at this point, using prudential judgment, has decided to withhold DP to affirm the dignity of a life. This position does not work and never will. The Church, instead, should base her objection to DP on the fact that we are so secular in our societies, then the criminal will likely not get the necessary spiritual needs one may need to reconcile with God. This would be a better argument, in my opinion, and would also be in harmony with the rest of our Catholic history and teachings of the Church.
2266 The efforts of the state to curb the spread of behavior harmful to people's rights and to the basic rules of civil society correspond to the requirement of safeguarding the common good. Legitimate public authority has the right and duty to inflict punishment proportionate to the gravity of the offense. Punishment has the primary aim of redressing the disorder introduced by the offense. When it is willingly accepted by the guilty party, it assumes the value of expiation. Punishment then, in addition to defending public order and protecting people's safety, has a medicinal purpose: as far as possible, it must contribute to the correction of the guilty party.67

Warren William Zevon (January 24, 1947 – September 7, 2003), born in Chicago, Illinois, was a rock and roll musician and songwriter. He was noted for his offbeat, sardonic view of life which was reflected in his dark, sometimes humorous songs, which often incorporated political or historical themes. He was born to a Russian Jewish father and a Mormon mother and soon moved to California. At the age of 12/13, Warren Zevon was a regular visitor to the home of Igor Stravinsky where he, along with Robert Craft, would study music.

RIVER FOREST, Ill. – The men's and women's outdoor track and field teams both took part in the two-day Northern Athletics Conference Championships this past weekend. Both the men's and women's teams placed eighth over the weekend. However, both sides saw some impressive individual performances.
The men's team was led by sophomore Jacob Arnold (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield). Arnold was involved in all 14 of the points scored by the men's team. He placed third in both the 100 meter and 200 meter dashes with times of 10.92 seconds and 22.54 seconds. Arnold's time in the 200 meter dash broke his own school record that he set one week prior. The sophomore was also a part of the 4x400 meter relay team which finished seventh. The team of Jacob Arnold, Amour Muro (Das es Salaam, Tanzania/Waterford), Carl Rapp (Union, Ill./Belvidere North) and Jason Springman (East Alton, Ill./East Alton-Wood River) finished in 3:33.24 breaking the school record in the event. Springman and Muro also ran well in the 800 meter finishing ninth and tenth respectively.

Molecule of the Week

During the 1970s and 1980s, researchers at McNeil Laboratories synthesized fenobam from creatine and developed it as an anxiolytic drug. Its molecular target was unknown at the time, but in 2005 fenobam was discovered to be a potent, selective mGluR5 antagonist. This finding prompted structure–activity relationship studies with fenobam as the lead compound. Among other potential uses, it may lead to a treatment for autism.

Help from a 'Fairy Godmother'
Pediatric cancer patients, families receive assistance from new program
Andie McConnell of Stafford, Va., watched as 22-month-old Evy, a friend's daughter, was diagnosed with pediatric brain cancer in 2009.
McConnell was driven to help the family and started fundraising projects.The result was the Fairy Godmother Project, a movement that began as a way to provide comfort and assistance to families struggling with the difficulties that occur when raising a child with cancer.
The project recently added a chapter to Richmond and has helped bring relief to families in the area that are consumed by the disease and its treatment.
Amazed at the outpouring of support and the success of her actions, McConnell linked with professional photographer Stephanie Johnson and worked on moving forward with her efforts. Evy's mother dubbed Andie her daughter's "fairy godmother," igniting the creation of the Fairy Godmother Project.
Lauren Leporati, coordinator for the Richmond Chapter, stumbled upon the Fairy Godmother Project online and felt driven to get involved. After contacting McConnell and expressing her desire to assist families in the Richmond area, Leporati started a chapter in the area, which began in January.
"I know a lot of people have a personal connection to cancer and that's why they start but I just really wanted to help," said Leporati. "When I was reading about these families of children with cancer I thought of my own two children and couldn't imagine what it would be like to go through that and the heartache of it all. I wanted to do something to help other people."
One of the biggest struggles when taking care of a child with cancer is having the time or energy to do everyday tasks and having time to relax.
The project aims to help ease the pressures off families by providing meals, housecleaning services, lawn care and date nights, while providing optimum care for the child. In addition, the program provides monthly Visa gift cards to families that they can use to buy groceries, gas and other necessities.
About 10 volunteers are actively serving three separate families throughout the area.
When a family receives assistance, it is paired with a lead volunteer who helps from the beginning of the child's diagnosis until a month after his or her treatment ends, providing consistency and allowing for the family to become comfortable and build a relationship with the volunteer.
Leporati and the lead volunteers are focused on providing optimum assistance, and they meet with the families in the beginning to discuss their needs and struggles.
Shannon Hubbel, a Chesterfield resident, has received assistance from the FGP for the past four months after McConnell stumbled upon Hubbel's blog about her five-year-old daughter Emily's journey with neuroblastoma, a cancer that occurs in infants and children.
"The Fairy Godmother Project found us," said Hubbel. "I was very grateful for the help and every little bit they could do was great. They offered to do meals for us and some weeks were at the hospital every day so coming home to a hot meal was amazing and I am so appreciative. It makes life not as stressful and my nights not as long."
The FGP is a non-profit organization and receives funding through events, individual contributions, spirit nights at restaurants and fundraisers. Although the project helps with everyday tasks, it also seems to complete the circle of support to navigate families through their child's diagnosis and ease the process.
"Lauren will send me texts telling me she's thinking about us," says Hubbel. "Knowing that they are not just there to help but they care is amazing. I can't give them enough kudos and the people there have huge hearts and I appreciate everything they do for us."
In addition to the at-home services the FGP provides, it also teams with professional photographers who volunteer their time and expertise to photograph the families to capture precious moments.
FGP hopes that these services can provide comfort to families facing the most difficult of times. Many people want to help but aren't sure what to do, and the FGP can direct people to assist those in need throughout the community.
By easing the burden of everyday life for local families who have a child in treatment for a form of pediatric cancer, it can take away some of the stress and provide relief. The FGP is looking for volunteers so it can serve as many potential families as possible.
"If its something simple and easy that somebody could do to take that burden off of a family, why not do it?" said Leporati. "I think it's important and sometimes I feel like if we didn't help each other out who would. A lot of it is just simple basic things that anybody can do but its completely overwhelming for these families."

Henricus Historical Park to host Publick Day Sept. 20
Citizen Staff Reports 09/15/2014
Henricus Historical Park will commemorate its anniversary during Publick Day, a signature annual event that celebrates the establishment of the second successful English settlement in the New World. In September 1611, Sir Thomas Dale, along with soldiers, tradesmen and farmers, ventured from Jamestown to create the Citie of Henricus. Leaders of Henricus developed the first English hospital, chartered the first college in North America, established tobacco as the first cash crop in Virginia, and created a place where Pocahontas lived and met John Rolfe.
Publick Day will take place Saturday, Sept. 20, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free and parking is $5 per vehicle. > Read more.

The Columbus Coated Fabrics project is located in the
Weinland Park neighborhood, located just north of downtown Columbus and
immediately southeast of The Ohio State University's main campus. This former 20-acre wallpaper plant was
vacated over a decade ago and had become a severe blighting influence on this
Columbus neighborhood.
In addition to receiving a Clean Ohio grant to demolish and
remediate this site, Wagenbrenner is partnering with Campus Partners (OSU), the
JP Morgan Chase Foundation, and The Columbus Foundation in a comprehensive
neighborhood revitalization effort within Weinland Park. This effort will result in a variety of new
housing options, improved educational opportunities and enhanced public

ChromaDex Corporation has announced a rise in revenue for the third quarter of 2010 of $1,562,352, compared with $1,433,086 in Q3 2009, but increased expenses related to marketing and further development of the pTeroPure product line led to a net loss.
The company, a leader in phytochemical reference standards and contract research, announced a net loss attributable to common stockholders for the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2010, of $883,223, compared with a net loss of $177,544 for the same period in 2009.
The net loss in Q3 2010 was attributable to an increase in share based compensation expenses of $423,764, compared with $55,947 for the Q3 2009, and the increased expenses related to pTerPure, said the company
"ChromaDex continues to work on implementing its business plan, which included the recent launch of pTeroPure pterostilibene as the next generation resveratrol," said Frank Jaksch, CEO and co-founder of ChromaDex. "There are currently 12 products on the market containing pTeroPure pterostilbene and with this increased market adoption we are expecting many more over the next few months, which should give consumers many different options for supplementing with this very promising compound."
As of October 2nd, 2010, cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $2,985,632, added the company/

Summer Hair–how to love your hair and not kill yourself in the process
It's almost Friday as I type this out and I can't tell you how glad I am to see this week end! It's been an absolute bear! I am dying to head into a 3 day weekend (not that it makes that much difference in my writing schedule) and just relax! I love summer. I love sunshine and hopefully the weatherman is wrong and we won't have that drizzle he is talking about– because compared to last week, I want some "sun time".
I want to sit out and just get toasty. I am not a big fan of hats but I do use one because my derm says I have to. Yes! I use sunblock but there's more than just skin I am trying to protect. I need to protect my hair when I am catching some rays–and so do you!
Here are some cool products you might want to try that will make a difference in how your hair looks not only at the end of the day ( like today) but at the end of the summer too.
Leonor Greyl is a hair care line imported from France that is rich in botanical extracts and shea butter to nourish and protect hair. If you are hitting the beach (whether it's sea, chlorinated or fresh water), you are going to need to have some Huile Palme on hand–or rather on your hair. This oil treatment will protect your tresses from sun and water damage by softening hair and protecting it from elements of salt, sun and chemicals. This cool product will stay on despite cool water temp to help deep condition hair and help prevent it from drying out. In other words, have head of beautiful hair, rather than split ends every time you hit the water (or pretend to anyway) . Think of this as a deep conditioner that you apply to your hair and let the sun bake it in rather than a hair dryer at the salon.
Is dry hair or split ends driving you crazy? Deep conditioning treatments really can work wonders. Whether you choose to spend 30 minutes under a hair dryer or sitting outside, a deep conditioning masque on a regular basis will help speed hair toward recovery as you transform your straw-like locks into gorgeous tresses.
Leonor Greyl's Masque Fleurs de Jasmin is one of the most luxurious ways to recondition hair. With essential oils (heavenly fragrance) along with organic acids, proteins and vegetable oils will nourish, regenerate and detangle your hair and make it ooooh so soft, shiny and manageable. (Leonorgreyl.com )
Another deep conditioner to try is Hamadi Shea Hair Mask with essential oils of vanilla and ylang ylang. (great fragrance!). Shea butter is a natural sun protectant and the avocado oil silkens hair while aloe vera provides hydration. A little goes a long way but if you are resusitating damaged hair, use more and spend serious dryer or sun time to help restore hair.How good is it? FABULOUS darling!! I went through an entire tub and my hair looked soo terrific. (Hamadi.com for online purchase or stores near you.)
Ouidad is the queen of curly hair and just because you don't have curly hair, doesn't mean you can't use her products. They are my saving grace. Yes I have curls but because I have curly hair, it makes my hair more vulnerable to dryness and breakage. So it's critical that I take care of my hair. I have been using Ouidad now for almost 2 years straight and I love her Deep Conditioner. This product is serious medicine for hair that needs some TLC and it delivers that in spades. Wash hair, apply mask and then a shower cap (or use a hat instead of a shower cap) and sit under the hair dryer for 30 minutes. (I use the time to catch up on some magazines.) Yes you will feel like you have pudding on your hair but it's pudding that is transforming your hair into soft, silky, shiny, heatlhy locks. It's really not too hard to do when you realize that your hair will look gorgeous…. after all, you're worth it! If you are lucky enough to be in NYC and can visit Ouidad's salon, do! It's worth every minute and penny. Or check the website for a salon near you that does Ouidad cuts and treatments. Ouidad.com
Another cool hair product I have run across is EASY STRAIGHT. While this product isn't for me — I love my curly hair– it is the perfect solution for girls who spend time with blow dryers and flat irons trying to get rid of the kinks and waves in their hair. This treatment will gently straighten and defrizz curly or wavy hair for three months!
This kit does have precise instructions that do need to be followed carefully, it does help you achieve straight hair without damaging hair with a minimum of hassle.
The website even has video on how to do the straightening process step by easy step. It's almost a no-brainer. So skip that flat iron and all those temporary straightening products and test drive this baby for 3 months this summer. No more worries about frizzy hair thanks to humid summer days. Since it only lasts 3 months, you can revert to the waves and curls that you love– or you can buy another box. It's easier, faster and less expensive than salon treatments. Just don't forget to regularly condition your hair with products like the ones listed above. For more information or where to buy, check out EasyStraight.com .
If you got this far and wondering why no photos–there will be some tomorrow. Manana baby, manana! Get thee to a store or online beauty site and have the conditioner on hand to keep that gorgeous hair healthy and glowing.
See you at the beauty counter!
2 Responses to "Summer Hair–how to love your hair and not kill yourself in the process"
well i heard about all your hair tips but the thing is really, does it work for all hair types? I am of african descent and I want my hair to get the best treatment but I could never find some one who has the right advice. So tell me…does your hair rememdies work for all hair types??
Yes Natalia, the Greyl line along with Ouidad, Pure Strength, Chaz Dean's Wen and the Jonathan line will all work with African hair types. also you might want to email me for a few other lines like Louise Galvin, Bumble & bumble's repair and restore series.. also there are a few products from MOP that I would higly recommend
well umm…. it's really hard to chose from all those lines of products you have there. But the MOP sounds like you really think they're good. And I heard of bumble and bumble, my friend get's his hair cuts from them. My hair condition is horrible. I've done every thing to it. And I've never really had it done by some one professionally because I only trust my self I guess. But I decided to go get it done because I was having this photo shoot done. The hair dresser did it, but used nothing to protect it from the heat(dryer and flatirons and blowdryers) and she bleached it and colored to my desired color. It cost alot! But I guess I didn't complain but I didn't know better my self and I dont really know who to go to for help. Where to start with hair salons that are able to work with my kinda hair and all that, you know. and which of those products should I really consider and buy first. And you talked about keeping your hair straight for 3 months, does that include me since my hair kink to even dew lol. But I'm willing to do any thing for my hair right now, honestly. I refuse to get my photoshoots completed without them. thanks for responding the first time.
** Hey there
here's what I would suggest.. 1) email me at firstname.lastname@example.com
2) tell me where you live. if you have ANY proximity to NYC, I have some specific people for you to see. 3) if you have none, I have some lines I want you to try BEFORE you do anything else to your hair.
You really need to deep condition it every week for a month.. to see how much better it will look.
You will need to change stylists most likely.. and you need someone who's willing to work within the problems of your hair.
also I would HIGHLY recommend OUIDAD.. Bumble and bumble's new damage control line.. also check out CHAZ DEAN'S WEN (available on QVC) as well as PURE STRENGTH from Warren Tricomi.. you could do well with Louise Galvin.. and also some of the Jonathan line too..
it's all about what works for you but truly nothing's going to change your hair like several deep conditioning treatments. If you go to beauty supply, check out Hayashi deep conditioning pack.. and also mix some into the color when you do color your hair.

Sep 13 2012: I don't think there is such a thing as an extraordinary life. We are all human; we don't have absolute power over everything; there will be difficult times, there will depressing times; and nothing good comes easy.
There is always something ahead of us that would seem like the way and means to happiness.
But happiness is a choice; and greatness requires hard work, persistence and sacrifices.
Sometimes we try our best, and it would seem as if our best is not good enough.
But we have to do the most important thing in all we do: TRY OUR BEST.

Sep 13 2012: What...or maybe more importantly, Who...should determine if somebody is "shining" in their own life, whether it be their everyday life, community, or business?
That's the only thng I was trying to say, and I think you understand that from your above post.
Bill Gates dropped out of college. Most people (at the time) would have probably said, "What a failure!". No doubt his decision to do so was because of some basic human emotions he felt at the time. Then he starts a business in his garage that grows to change the world...and get a whole bunch of other people to look at him as a Greedy Corporate Money Grabber Who Made Way Too Much Money. But hey...wasn't he just being himself?
Compare him to a high school dropout who decides to just say "To heck with all this!", buys a surfboard, and does odd jobs to make just enough money to support his surfing passion. He's just being himself too. And no doubt there would be many people who would look at him and say, "What a lazy Bum!"
To me, neither one of them is "ordinary". They are both extraordinary, in their own use of their own basic emotions to shine in the way that makes them individually happy. To me, that is what makes someone's individual life extraordinary.
Like TED Lover said, extraordinary people living extraordinary lives define those words for themselves. It's when someone allows someone else to define or set criteria about being ordinary or extraordinary that you end up living a life you may not really enjoy.
I don't think anyone leading an extraordinary life is just an ordinary person. If they themselves feel their life is extraordinary, they've discovered the secret to being an extraordinary person, too (in the context of what I think your question is asking).
Sep 13 2012: Unanswerable question, unless you are willing to define what an "ordinary" person is compared to an "extraordinary" person. Same thing as to an "extraordinary life" vs just a plain old ordinary life.
Is anybody ready to start categorizing people that way? On what merits, achievements, contributions to their fellow man, etc?
Slippery slope to start transiting. Fraught with all the characteristics of why Human Beings can't get along with each other already.

Chris Brown is apparently sick of being the bad guy in the media, somehow feeling he has gotten a rap rep he doesn't deserve. The 24-year-old singer told Jet Magazine that "white America" was forgiving of Jay-Z after he was a drug dealer and stabbed someone. Is the pot calling the kettle black or does …

Catherine mentions that the talk last night at the Florida Avenue Home for Unemployed Bloggers concerned the advisability of having sex with one's clone. Personally, I think names need to be named here. Sommer, Will, and Julian were firmly in the sex-with-your-clone is hott, while Catherine had wishy-washy views. I think this is gross.

Day 6 Outdoors® Flat - Out Feeder
Item # WX2-181071
- Google+
- Details & Specs
Day 6 Outdoors® Flat - Out Feeder. Built specifically to manage mature whitetails!
It's a fact: studies show that traditional feeders are visited less by wiser, older deer. Why? Because frequent trips to the feed site to replace batteries, unclog jams, or check levels leave human scent everywhere. Hunters have long understood this truth about deer and human scent... it's just never been applied to how deer are fed and managed... until now.
Enter the Flat-Out Feeder by Day 6 Outdoors®! The patented design collapses as feed levels decrease, so you can visually assess the feed level without going near it. And because of its maintenance-free design, you eliminate excessive trips for repair and battery replacement! The bottom line is LESS human scent at the site, MORE big mature bucks around come season. It's a no-brainer.
- Gravity-fed... no need for batteries or maintenance
- Large 250-lb. capacity
- Simple one-person set-up requires no tools
- Weighs less than 50 lbs. empty, easy to haul to even the most remote locations.
- Reviews
Customer Reviews
this is a nice solid feeder, but there are no instructions with it, or advice on how to limit flow of corn.
The product was above my expectations.
This is a great feeder,it's ready to go out of the box,just add corn.It is constructed very well and the protective framing works well to cable lock it to a tree. It holds a lot of corn, I put 4 bags in it and had to go back out and get more bags of corn to fill it.
Great feeder. It is the second one I bought. Much better than trying to fill a feeder on a tri-pod and you can see at a glance how much corn it still has.
had little trouble expanding it upward but so far so good also i didnt slide the plastic liner down and the feed came out between sections of the feeder but next time i will know
Everything its supposed be.

In a USA Today/Gallup poll released earlier this month, a record number of Americans — 55 percent — said that their families are worse off financially than they were a year ago. But conservative columnist George Will thinks these people are just misinformed. On ABC's This Week yesterday, Will brazenly claimed that average Americans "are better off today than they were in 2000-2001." Watch it:

What do you do when life hands you lemons? You start a literary magazine. A year ago, former editors at LA Weekly, Laurie Ochoa and Joe Donnelly, founded Slake: Los Angeles, a magazine with a mission to keep alive the "endangered art" of deeply reported narrative journalism and polished pieces of fiction and poetry. Donnelly explains that Slake is an "expansive experiment in narrative journalism, storytelling, art, poetry, fictionkind of all the things that we're supposed to not have time for anymore." Tonight's reading welcomes experimental novelist Mark Z. Danielewski (House of Leaves), Pulitzer Prizewinning restaurant critic (and Ochoa's husband) Jonathan Gold, top surf journalist Jamie Brisick, and Slake's founders Donnelly and Ochoa.

Rani Mukerji's success fundas
"I am open to TV offers now but it has to suit my like and dislikes. I have only gone for assignments that I felt were suitable for me in films too. And yes, I think I am looking forward to some more action on TV soon," she says.
Mukerji admits that TV as a medium has come as a fresh career option for film actors and she too is open to the medium. "I have very fond memories from the reality show that I judged. It was a great experience for me. I think that these days TV offers plenty of scope and, more importantly, it satisfies ones creative urges too," she says.
Though there are adulations pouring in, Mukerji says that she has learnt to take everything with a pinch of salt. She adds that she gives her 100% to every role of hers, but at the same time rues that an actor's efforts get noticed only when the film clicks at the box office.
"I had put in the same effort in all my other films. But they got noticed duringNOKJ because it was a success. Trust me � I worked equally hard for a Dil Bole Hadippa too," she says.
Mukerji admits that it is difficult for an actor to guess the audience reaction at the box office. "You can never gauge what is going to click and what is not. Everybody makes a film aiming to hit the marquee at the box office. Dil Bole... and Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic were also superbly made. But yes...NOKJ will stay in everybody's minds more because the audience liked it. But as an artist, every film for me is the same and it has the same amount of emotions attached to it," she concludes.

I havn't heard them in awhile but I can always choose to listen to them told again (:
My Great Grandmother: My grandfathers mom on my moms side. Her name is Dorothy (Dorothea in Spanish and her nickname is Doris) She was alive during WWII but lived in Spain, where there was still war. She had 9? I believe 9 sisters, I may be wrong so don't trust my word on that one just yet. Both her parents died of heart problems when she was young. She would sleep in underground railroads and bomb shelters because they would constantly be hit. She then worked in a monastery making cute napkins, cloths, and other things. There's a lot more to tell but this is the story that I haven't heard in over a year so I would have to talk to her again (: She is 96, I believe, and always remarks on how aging for this long leaves more of an emotional toll because of all the people you've seen go.
My Great Uncle: He is my grandma's brother on my dad's side. To be honest I do not know his name /: My grandmother never told me but I could always find out more so there is no problem there. He was a gay man who eventually died of aids before I was born. Back in the 80's/early 90's not many people knew a lot about Gays or AIDS, it was all a relatively new thing, and a new connection between the two. Most people, or I should say almost all, were uncomfortable with even the idea of a gay. From what my grandmother says he took to my father especially when he was diagnosed. In his earlier times of coming out he cut his hair and did weird things to it that my grandmother was repulsed by. He moved and went crazy, trying to be free, trying to embrace the weird feelings he was having. He wanted to make sure what he wanted was truly what he wanted. He had sex with men, he partied, he explored himself. Eventually he came back and tried to be a better man, tried straightening out (not literally :p). My grandmother said he was still gay, but he gained more respect for himself. Then he got sick and the doctor said he had AIDS. No one wanted to go near him because of the ignorance towards the disease. Even though the Doc said it's okay to touch him and see him, no one believed it and no one was comfortable enough too. So my grandmother took him in. He was a sweet and funny man, and would always look on the bright side. My grandmother trusted the doctors and helped him, she allowed my father to be around him too. He loved my dad, even though my dad never talks about him. (I have been meaning to ask him of his side of the story) He died in my grandmothers house.
I personally love my great uncles story because I'm gay, and I hate that I never met him. My father was never accepting of me and well basically I'm going to ask him about my G-uncle just to see what he has to say. Soooo I hope this helps so far! Let me know girly

New Balance is preparing yet another exciting release this summer. For the New Balance 574 "Woven," the brand took one of the most signature elements of the model, the woven bib, and worked with the material partner to reimagine the upper. The new treatment translates typically separate, layered pattern pieces into a single layer material through graphical exercise and a custom weaving process. The new, three-piece upper consists of the main shoe body, heel foxing and heel back tab, and utilizes tonal mesh patterns to create dimension and texture on a naturally flat material. The New Balance 574 "Woven" pack will be available online and at select retailers beginning June 1 for $99.95 USD.

Greene is a town in Chenango County, New York, United States. The population was 5,604 at the 2010 census.[1] The town is named after General Nathanael Greene.[2] It is located in the southwest corner of the county and contains a village, also named Greene. Both town and village are northeast of Binghamton.
Part of modern Greene was from land purchased in 1785 from the Oneida and Tuscarora, but many of the Oneida remained in the area until about 1812. In 1792, the first outside settler arrived and established himself at Greene village.
The town was originally known as Hornby, but changed its name to Greene in honor of General Nathanael Greene, hero of the American Revolution.
The town was formed from the Town of Bainbridge and the Town of Union ( Broome County, New York) in 1798. More was added to Greene form Bainbridge (then "Jericho) in 1799. The town was later reduced by the formation of new towns: Coventry (1806) and Smithville (1808). More of Greene was taken to form part of the Town of Barker in 1840, and another part of Greene was added to the Town of Coventry in 1843.
In 1842, the Village of Greene was incorporated, setting itself off from the town.
The former Chenango Canal (1837) helped build the town's commerce until replaced by the railroad which was in turn replaced by Route 12 and State Highway 206.
In 1945 the Gross Flat flying field was purchased by Robert Barrows and the Greene Airport was established. The airport is still in operation and is located on 173 Airport Road. Boasting one of the longest and widest grass strips in the area, it is often frequented by pilots in training. It is open to the public and has a local CFII instructor and a certified A&P. The Greene Airport also has live updating weather station that sends data to weather underground and NOAA.
The Chenango River Theatre was founded in Greene in 2006 by Jeffrey S. Brooks. The 99-seat theatre is the only professional (equity) theatre in Broome and Chenango counties.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 75.6 square miles (195.9 km²), of which, 75.1 square miles (194.6 km²) of it is land and 0.5 square miles (1.2 km²) of it (0.63%) is water.
The west and south town lines form the border with Broome County. The Chenango River flows southward through the town.
New York State Route 206, an east-west highway, intersects New York State Route 12 in Greene village.
