Blue-and-white china inspired the choice of Lee Jofa fabric for Hickory Chair armchairs and a Stark rug in a sitting area by the kitchen.
Indiana artist John Thom painted a mural of Lake Maxinkuckee for the mudroom.
Old quilts are stacked on built-in shelves on the second-level landing. Gina was shopping for a quilt to hang on the landing wall when she spotted a 36-star flag. The 8x5-foot flag now hangs above an antique pine bench.
Blue-and-white toile fabric by Hinson & Company was used for wall coverings, bedding, and furniture, creating a peaceful mood in the master suite. The upholstered headboard is illuminated by sconces from Circa Lighting and accented by a painted wood arch. A blue-and-white needlepoint rug by Stark Carpet introduces a simple grid design underfoot.
A bay window niche sets the freestanding tub apart in the master bath, which features the same toile that was used in the bedroom.
Sunny yellow fabrics from Lee Jofa and Schumacher brighten an upstairs guest room. In addition to the four-poster by Hickory Chair, a daybed under the eaves offers a cozy sleeping space. A rail (stored in a closet) converts the daybed into a baby crib.
French doors lead to a balcony with lake views. The wicker chairs were from actress Bette Davis's Connecticut estate.

On Martin Luther King's Day, a special treat… http://vimeo.com/35467813
With the elections at hand…and many people dreading the Republican wrath, I was reminded of Angela Davis' talk at OWS last year (it's already last year!). Here's a little something on the Third Party System and OWS.
I'll also include here a quote I enjoyed from the"Pedagogy Of The Oppressed":
"The oppressed, having internalized the image of the oppressor and adopted his guidelines, are fearful of freedom. Freedom would require them to eject this image and replace it with autonomy and responsibility. Freedom is acquired by conquest, not by gift. It must be pursued constantly and responsibly. Freedom is not an ideal located outside of man; nor is it an idea which becomes myth. It is rather the indispensable condition for the quest for human completion."
- Paulo Freire
On the film from, I just recently watched "I Am Cuba/Soy Cuba" a 1964 film by Mikhail Kalatozov… a brilliant resistance film but also visually the most compelling camera work and the increadible tracking shots, check out this funeral scene. It's a beauty.
A few months ago, Scott Macaulay of Filmmaker Magazine recommended another must see, Gary Tarn's "Black Sun". A brilliantly crafted documentary that's a little reminiscent of Sans Soleil, not only is it artfully executed, Hugues de Montalembert (the storyteller) takes us into realms we forget to explore.

A technique based on a unit often found on synthesizers which allows for a periodic 'capture' of a frequency along a dynamic waveform which is held until the next 'sample' is taken. When the waveform that is followed is at a low frequency, predictable melodic patterns are evolved; whereas a higher frequency will normally generate random patterns.

Anyone who sews will love this ironing board
If you ever need to iron large pieces of fabric like curtains, you'll love Katie Croteau's ironing board. It's hacked from the Norden table, with a cover/pad over it.
See more here.
11 Responses to Anyone who sews will love this ironing board
If you use a steam iron, I'd be concerned about warping the wood top beneath. Maybe occasionally, ironing on this hack would be okay.
put a layer of aluminum foil down before the padding and the cover and it will be fine…
That's a cool idea, and timely since I am going to be redoing my laundry/sewing room. But that table is $279 in Canada. That is one expensive ironing board! Maybe if they have one in the as-is…
love this — multi-use and doesn't scream "ironing board!" . . . especially nice is it doens't need to be put away after every ironing task . . . would look nice painted too, great idea i'll keep in mind for myself
Hello, what a wonderful consept this is!
I love to "hack" furniture as you call it, and have several IKEA items that has been made over more than once!
I don`t get if this is a private or a commercial site!!
Please leave a response on my blog, although it is not english.
I`m quite bicontinental as they say!
Brgds, M
love your website.
I might even be able to iron properly with one of these…!!
What a great idea!!!! Certainly given me food for thought!
Fantastic, I love it.
As a quilter, this is exactly what I need! Since we dont use steam when pressing quilts, ventilation is not an issue. Size and stability, are! Also the added storage is always useful.
Love this idea for my quilting room, but way to expensive in Canada ($289!) in my city. I will take this idea and "shop around" though. Thanx!

Hi, I'm Laura-Lee. I'm the author of MyBeak Social Media. I get my kicks cutting through the bull #$%@ to offer no nonsense small business advice with a strong belief that social media doesn't need to be complex and should be accessible to everyone.
I am able to regularly update my website with small business advice due to my business acumen and overarching OCD tenancies.
I can make earrings out of scrabble pieces, make the world's best banana bread (ask me for the recipe!), and am a perpetual culinary tourist that's eaten everything from buffalo brains to grubs.
People feel good hiring me as a small business coach because I offer social media advice as part of an overall marketing communications strategy; have a business degree and over five years of professional experience in online research and business development.
Above all, I turn into a little Rainman when it comes to solving business problems to leverage your online presence into a profit-making machine. Boo yah!

This is a follow-up, troubleshooting article that goes hand-in-hand with my "Building MariaDB 5.1 on Windows Revisited" post, and covers some problems and their solutions that one might encounter when attempting to build MariaDB from source code on Microsoft Windows.
The first error I ran into was this, on my main compile step (i.e., the 2nd cmake command):

That in itself doesn't tell us too much. Searching the full compile output, we find:

GPS Tools can keep you safe on summer outings
By Kim Komando of CyberSpeak
Kim Komando, a respected tech blogger, included SPOT in her editorial about different GPS devices that can help keep you safe this summer during your next adventure. Check it out at here.
Here's a cool organization, Offroad Passport, that integrated SPOT units in their off-road website by using SPOTadventures.com accounts that allow everyone in their club to follow their adventures. Anyone can set up a SPOT Adventures Account. Get creative with how you use SPOT Adventures. See how Offroad Passport did it here!

A customer using his new SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger summons a rescue for an injured rider who just crashed her motorcycle. Learn more >
Dale, a retired community college administrator and instructor, is an avid hiker, backpacker and cyclist. At the age of 67, he now spends most of his free time hiking through the backcountry of Oregon and California alone and with fellow backpackers.
Like many hikers, Dale often worried about connectivity during his travels. This is why SPOT piqued his interest when reading one of his favorite magazines. Soon after, Dale visited REI to purchase his first SPOT device. In celebration of Memorial Day, Dale and 7 other hikers ranging from ages 51 to 74 decided to take a five day trip to Mattole Beach Campground near Petrolia, California. This time, he made sure to add his new SPOT Gen 3™ as a "must bring" item.

"The gift was a tremendous surprise to us and a wonderful blessing," Development Director Karen White said. "It was a terrible tragedy that the family experienced, but we feel very grateful to be benefiting from such a difficult situation that they had to endure."
When family members came to the shelter to deliver the check, they also brought gifts like toys for the children, White said.
"We were very touched by the outpouring of love [the family] had for us and I think we'll continue to stay in touch and have good friendships with them," she said.
Patricia Ann Woody's cousin Vicki Harrison said Woody's mother, Jean Jefferson, originally planned to donate the funds to a children's shelter after a period of time, but maintained hope that someone would come forward with information. Jefferson passed away June 24 of this year and her husband passed away in 2008.
"[Jefferson] said in the event she passed away, let's go ahead and find a children's shelter and donate to them," Harrison said.
She said about a year ago her sister Wanda Fisher had a conversation with a young boy while waiting at a local doctor's office who explained he was a resident at Flowering Branch.
"He made such an impact on my sister when it came time to donate these funds, my sister said, 'I have the perfect place,'" Harrison said.
She said while the money will help with essentials at the shelter, which currently houses about a dozen youth ages 11 to 18 and provides services to more than 2,500 youth a year, the residents family members met with all had a Christmas wish list.
"All of them had [listed] the basic needs of clothing and shoes, but every one of them wanted an iPod Touch and what I did was I got on Facebook ... and I'm trying my best to raise enough iPod Touch [devices]," Harrison said.
For donation information, email Harrison at email@example.com.
According to a Daily Tribune News article dated April 25, 2011, Bartow County Sheriff's Office Investigator Marc Barrere had worked the case for nearly 11 years.
The article states, "Barrere said there are more than a thousand pages of documents concerning the Woody murders, not including transcribed interviews. Inside those documents are details of the murder.
"According to Barrere, a co-worker of Monty Woody came to the couple's Rudy York Road residence [on April 25, 1990] because Woody did not show up for work. He knocked on the door and got no answer; he was then able to peep into a window and saw what looked like a body under a sheet. The man entered the home and discovered Ann Woody's body under the sheet.
"He immediately left the residence and called 911. Deputies arrived on the scene at 1:52 p.m., and upon checking the residence, Monty Woody's body was discovered in the master bedroom.
"Although Barrere couldn't release specific details about the case, he did say Monty Woody's cause of death was stabbing while Ann Woody died from strangulation."
Lt. Robert Moultrie now is on the case and will meet with the family in upcoming weeks. He could not be reached for comment at press time.
"We haven't given up hope, we just felt it was time to donate that money," Harrison said. "... We always said if something happened to [Jefferson], the three of us cousins would get together and make sure justice is done."
She added, "They're a ways on the case — they've got new leads and we're hoping that something will be discovered before long and it will be solved. It's a solvable case but they have to get all their facts together."
Public Information Officer Sgt. Jonathan Rogers explained the circumstances surrounding the case are what justify keeping it open.
"Typically a case is open as long as there is any available information to follow up on or any evidence that can be processed to identify the perpetrator or offenders and in a case such as this, it's pretty much never closed ... I know there is a lot of evidence in this case," Rogers said.

Ivan Santaromita finished 12th on the fifth and final stage of the Tour Méditerranéen on Sunday. He was also the BMC Racing Team's top finisher on the general classification in 13th, while Danilo Wyss was in the breakaway of the day.
Realized the plan
The Swiss rider Wyss figured prominently in the breakaway group of 17 riders who attacked early on the longest stage of the race (192 kilometers) and gained a maximum lead of 3:20. But harmony within the group ended on the Passage au Col du Tanneron with 25 km to go. The second category climb split it as the peloton was mustering its charge. At the end, Santaromita and Amaël Moinard showed their qualities and attacked. Jurgen Roelandts (Lotto-Belisol) won the stage while Thomas Löfkvist (IAM Cycling) took the general classification. Wyss said he realized the plan of the BMC Racing Team by being part of a breakaway. "It was a hard day, but I was happy to be in this group with really strong riders," he said. "It was an important move for me." The weather in France – with snowfall and a temperature around zero degrees Celsius – did not favor the cyclists and the conditions were difficult. Nevertheless, BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Yvon Ledanois was very satisfied with the performance of the team: "Every day we had a rider in the breakaway," he said. "Saturday, it was Daniel Oss. We showed good teamwork. I'm very content with the guys after these five race days in France." Steve Morabito did not start the final stage due to respiratory problems, BMC Racing Team Dr. Scott Major said.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Alpine SWR-823D by Jo Greene What's a component sub and why would I want one? A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back. Bass production is all about moving air and Alpine's Type-R subs do that better than ever. Advanced suspension features give these powerhouses the extra-long cone excursion needed to push large amounts of air, while the Kevlar® treated pulp woofer cone and big Santoprene™ rubber surround promote accurate response. Best of all, these subs feature shallower mounting depths than previous Type-R subs, so you can fit them into more spaces in your vehicle. Impressive power handling The SWR-823D 8" subwoofer handles up to 350 watts RMS for big-time output, and its dual 2-ohm voice coils offer system wiring flexibility. It works well in sealed or ported enclosures so you can choose what kind of bass you want to hear and feel. The one-piece aluminum frame houses a heavy-duty magnet structure for increased accuracy and power handling, along with a special-design heatsink that shunts off excess heat for long-lasting reliability.

Features Enclosure Features Kevlar Reinforced Pulp Cone: This Alpine Type-R subwoofer has a two-piece structural parabolic Kevlar reinforced pulp cone. Kevlar adds strength and tear resistance to the woofer cone while maintaining the benefits of a pulp cone design. There is also an oversized inverted dust cap of the same material, which increases rigidity and virtually eliminates distortion at extreme volume levels. HAMR: The woofer features a High Amplitude Multi Roll Surround (HAMR), made of injection molded Santoprene, that allows substantial linear excursion and greater SPL. The High-Amplitude Multi Roll Surround design allows extreme excursion without sacrificing valuable cone area. FEA Optimized for linearity and made with injection-molded Santoprene, the HAMR surround is a key part of the suspension system that allows extreme excursions with accurate, distortion-free control. Spider with Reinforced Layer Spider Integration: An FEA optimized progressive Nomex spider with reinforced layer spider integration ensures reliable and consistent control of the tinsel-leads to eliminate any possible mechanical noises or interference typical of many high-excursion designs. Vented VC Heat Sink and Airflow Management System: Alpine's Patented Radial Vented VC Heat Sink and Airflow Management System actively manages voice coil temperatures by forcing air directly across the heat sink system. This helps to minimize power compression and ensures reliable long playing time by actively removing output-robbing heat from the voice coil. The new one-piece cast aluminum frame with integrated shorting sleeve uses the entire frame as a heat sink, allowing sustained power output and handling, even in the most extreme applications. Optimized Motor Structure: Thanks to its new six-piece, segmented, double stacked magnet structure, the new Type-R subwoofers have over 20% more motor force than their predecessors, offering more control over cone movement. The optimized machined motor structure also creates a symmetrical magnetic field while optimizing flux density to greatly reduce distortion, while further improving power handling and output. Pole Geometry: Alpine's patented Compound Radius Curve pole geometry ensures a symmetrical magnetic field, while optimizing flux density to reduce distortion, while further improving power handling and output. Oversized Voice Coil: The 40mm high-temperature (180°C), 4-layer dual voice coil offers more surface area to handle more power; 350W RMS / 1000W Peak. Dual Voice Coils: For increased system flexibility, the woofer has two 2-ohm voice coils. When the voice coils are wired in parallel, the woofer presents a 1-ohm load. When the voice coils are wired in series, the woofer presents a 4-ohm load. Spring Terminals: The spring terminals are all located on one side of the woofer. The terminals will accept pin connectors, single banana plugs, or bare wire up to 8 gauge. Jumpers: Included with the woofer are two voice coil terminal jumpers. These jumpers allow you to easily wire the voice coils in parallel (for a 1-ohm load) or series (for a 4-ohm load). Enclosure Enclosure Compatibility: The 8" Alpine Type-R Subs offer installation flexibility; they are compatible with sealed, vented, or bandpass enclosures, and infinite baffle installations (no bandpass enclosure specifications are listed in the manual). Sealed Box Volume: Alpine recommends a sealed enclosure with an optimum internal volume of 0.3 cubic feet (from 0.15 to 0.5 cubic feet is acceptable). Sealed enclosures provide the most control over a woofer, will handle a lot of power, and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable to all types of music. Vented Box Volume: Alpine recommends a vented enclosure with an optimum internal volume of 0.7 cubic feet (from 0.25 to 0.7 cubic feet is acceptable) using a 7"x3/4"x15-1/2" slot port; this yields a tuning frequency of 36 Hz. Ported (or vented) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed so they are suitable for use with smaller amplifiers, giving you more bass output from less power. However, this efficiency comes at the expense of very low frequency output (below 31 Hz).

This speaker handles alot of power. It's punchy and distorts very very little at max volume with the polyfill. It's a tuff little sub. I recommend this speaker, as long as you are not looking for a very boomy sound like those in a bandpass box or a 12" speaker in a ported box. Pros: Great sound for an 8" sub, handles alot of power Cons: It's not as bassy as a 10 or 12 inch sub (obviously :-) 4 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

A couple of years ago I took it upon myself to find the time to go and explore the very far north of the European continent. The images of snowy lapland would always get me excited around Christmas and finally I decided to pull it all together.
My trip began in Oslo where I took a flight (very inexpensively!) to one of the northernmost towns in Norway called Tromso. Here you can discover a great university city (the most northerly in the world I believe), the famous Cathedral carved to look like sheets of ice and of course explore the surrounding scenery and wildlife.
As luck would have it I also learned a great deal about the indigenous Sami people through none other than their elected president who has a seat in the Parliament. If you don't know about these people, it's worth reading about as they have a truly special and unique way of life. My journey from here continued by bus to to a town called Kiruna, which is where I took a train from the worlds most northerly railways station down to the coast of Sweden. This was perhaps the most special part of my journey. Approximately five hours spent on the train rolling through truly awe inspiring landscapes that could have come straight out of a Tolkin novel, and indeed you're not to miss the 'Gate to Lapland' amongst other things such as the world famous Ice Hotel. My journey endede in Lulea which is a delightful town and a great place to experince true Swedish hospitality in a small town kind of way!
If you're lucky, you'll also get to experience the Northern Lights if you travel at the right time of year, which is a spectacle not to be missed. Otherwise enjoy the never ending sunrise for a romance that never ends or party to your heart's content with during the summer when the sun never goes sets!

Lucas Valor | Rugaru | 16 | Sophomore | FC: Harry Styles | OPEN
Like all Rugaru's, Lucas has a craving for human flesh. It's his second year at the academy and he has been learning to control his urges more and more. He's a carefree guy and befriends people quickly. He likes a good party and enjoys making people laugh. You would never guess that under all that charm is a carnivorous flesh-eater.
Lucas's parents divorced when he was young, leaving him to take care of his sickly mother and younger sisters. He didn't think that going to the academy would help anyone and he insisted on staying at home. However, his mother pleaded with him and he finally gave in. He wasn't used to the strict rules, but he found the classes interesting. It turned out that he didn't know basically anything when it came to his kind.
He doesn't like that the humans won't accept him as their equal, but he doesn't hate them either. He understands the fear that they have because they're different. All he wants is peace.

text: (The old thread was already long, so better start a new one.) Laura Lepistö's medal in the Worlds is a big thing here in Finland. It is the first Worlds medal to a Finnish lady. Finnish men have one: year 1933. There were several medals in pairs in the early 1900 century. And, of course, the ice dance medals of Susanna Rahkamo - Petri Kokko. ... but never before a Finnish lady medalling. The Finnish Figure Skating Association arranged a coffee party to celebrate Laura and her medal last Tuesday. As you can see from these photos it was a very nice party. - The lady with red hair in the photos is Tarja Halonen, President of Finland. She wanted to come there, too, to celebrate Laura and her medal. - There were lots of media people. (... and I was there, too, with two other people to represent our club, Laura's own club) Our own photos Finnish media has really noticed Laura and her medal. F.ex. there are two big evening papers in Finland. One of them, Iltalehti, had a six page story on Monday. The other one, Iltasanomat, had three pages on Monday and four pages today. - It is really seldom that any sportsman or sportswoman in this country gets so much page in those papers ... and figure skating is NOT a big sport in Finland or at least it has not been.

Backpacking and cycling are two of the best ways to see Europe. In fact, many Europeans take a gap year between school and University to explore Europe for themselves on two feet or two wheels. There are three broad ways they approach the journey:
1.Backpacking. Donning a rucksack and heading off by plane, coach or train. Interrail passes provide a very cost effective way to see Europe - one ticket allows unlimited travel in 30 countries.
2. Cycletouring. Travelling by train or plane to a start point of your choice, before cycling in a circular route or to a completely new destination. Whether challenging yourself in the Alps, enjoying the beautiful Bavarian scenery in Southern Germany or taking it easy in the flatness of the Baltics - the pace of the bicycle allows you to enjoy the scenery and meet the locals. Europe is a cycling friendly continent with many countries providing dedicated cycling lanes and facilities.
3. Leisure rides. Bikes are available to rent in many tourist destinations, both in the countryside and from major schemes in cities including Brussels and Dublin. A small deposit is usually payable, but in return you have the flexibility of renting a bike just for when you need it.
Youth hostels and campsites provide cost effective accommodation for backpackers and cyclists, but do check your travel arrangements carefully as not all trains and coaches accept bikes during peak hours. Use of cycling helmets is widespread in Europe, and is compulsory in some countries. Always lock your bike, no matter where you leave it or how long you are leaving it for.
Home of the famous Tour de France, Europe has a rich cycling history - please visit the National Tourism Organisation websites for further information, using the flag links to the left.
Consider safeguarding your trip so that you can minimize the financial impact.
Check your health insurance policy to be sure you are covered while travelling abroad.
On-the-spot emergencies are handled just as they would be at home.

Wineka column: Today's Hood Theological Seminary tells story of a man, a mission, a miracle
SALISBURY — The story goes that Dr. Albert Aymer left the group he was with and took a personal sight-seeing tour of London one afternoon.
Hood Theological Seminary in comparison:
Hood Theological Seminary in comparisonHood Theological Seminary is one of eight institutions in North Carolina accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.Only Hood and the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in the town of Wake Forest are independent and not affiliated with a university or college. Here is a listing of the eight N.C. institutions, where they are located, what their primary denominational affiliation is, the total number of students and full-time faculty members as reported by the ATS in 2012, except for Hood, whose enrollment is a three-year average:• Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Wake Forest, Southern Baptist Convention, 1,712 students, 56 faculty members.• Duke University Divinity School, Durham, United Methodist Church, 628 students, 37 faculty members.• Hood Theological Seminary, Salisbury, African Methodist Episcopal Church, 276 students, 11 faculty members.• M. Christopher White School of Divinity of Gardner-Webb University, Boiling Springs, Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, 217 students, 12 faculty members.• Campbell University Divinity School, Buies Creek, Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, 185 students, 9 faculty members.• Shaw University Divinity School, Raleigh, General Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, 133 students, nine faculty members.• Wake Forest University Divinity School, Winston-Salem, inter/multi-denominational, 91 students, 12 faculty members.• Carolina Graduate School of Divinity, Greensboro (affiliated with Randolph County Community College), inter/multi-denominational, 50 students, two faculty members.
Aymer stopped by the grave of Prince Albert and said out loud, "You old bloke, I was named for you."
Hood Theological Seminary by the numbers
Hood by the numbersAccording to Hood Theological Seminary's development office, the institution's average total enrollment over the past three years is 276 students, with it peaking in 2010-11 at more than 300.Here's a further breakdown of student enrollment, again looking at the past three-year averages:• African American: 62-68 percent.• Caucasian: 32-38 percent.• Other (Native American, Asian, etc.): 1-4 percent.• Gender: male, 52 percent; female, 48 percent.• Age: 40 to 60 years old, 62 percent; 22 to 40 years old, 38 percent.• Student denominations: AME Zion and United Methodist, 36 to 40 percent.• Other denominations include AME, Presbyterian, Lutheran (ELCA), United Church of Christ, Baptist, Episcopal, Holiness, Nondenominational, North American Lutheran Church, Missionary Baptist, Church of God and Catholic.• Professor's denominations: AME Zion, United Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Baptist, Southern Baptist, Episcopal.
Dr. Don Haynes, retired pastor of First United Methodist Church in Salisbury, takes note of another monument Aymer probably saw that day — the small tombstone epitaph of Sir Christopher Wren, architect for St. Paul's Cathedral.
"If you seek his memorial," the inscription ends, "look about you."
The same could be said of Aymer, according to Haynes. Look about you.
Over almost two decades in Salisbury, Aymer built the once struggling Hood Theological Seminary into an enviable institution.
"Wow, what a legacy," Haynes says.
Dr. Robert Lewis, retired senior pastor of First Presbyterian Church, calls it "one of the greatest success stories Salisbury has ever known." And he suggests that it might be the most diverse seminary in the country.
Initially as dean, then as Hood's first president, Aymer oversaw its becoming a free-standing seminary, independent from Livingstone College. He led Hood to the establishment of a doctoral degree program and its accreditation by the Association of Theological Schools in 1998 and its approval by the University Senate of the United Methodist Church in 1999.
It's almost forgotten these days, but Aymer served as both head of Hood and interim president of Livingstone College for 11 months 18 days — he counted the time and went five months without a salary. But the mission for him was always the seminary.
Aymer made friends throughout the community, twisted arms and raised funds to allow Hood Theological Seminary to convert the former Days Inn motel along Interstate 85 — Salisbury's original Holiday Inn — into a handsome seminary campus.
Enrollment at Hood increased from less than 30 students when Aymer arrived in 1994 to close to 300 today. He demanded fiscal solvency for Hood. Meanwhile, the seminary earns praise for its gender, racial and denominational diversity; the caliber of its full-time and adjunct faculty; the library built by the Rev. Cynthia Keever; and a seminary curriculum Aymer deemed should be patterned after the divinity schools at Duke, Yale and Drew universities.
Dr. Vergel L. Lattimore, who was confirmed recently as the Hood president to succeed Aymer, describes the seminary's transformation as just "short of miraculous."
As with most other faculty, administration and staff members at Hood, Lattimore came to Salisbury thanks to Aymer's recruiting skills.
Similarly wooed, Academic Dean Trevor Eppehimer thinks he has settled into a special place, where one of the finest seminary faculties has been assembled.
Dr. James Feree, a retired Methodist minister, says it's great to see new ministers in the African Methodist Episcopal Church coming from Hood.
"Now we're sure our young men and women will be equipped for ministry," he says.
Aymer, 75, and newly named as president emeritus, has spent the past two weeks deflecting praise at commencement and many different tributes.
Students and alumni commissioned a portrait of him, painted by Salisbury artist Mark Stephenson. It now hangs in the Hood administration building's lobby. At a tribute dinner, he received the state's highest civilian award, the Order of the Long Life Pine. A few days ago, he accepted an Elizabeth Duncan Koontz Humanitarian Award from the Salisbury-Rowan Human Relations Council.
In return, he has praised God and warmly thanked all the faculty, staff, alumni, students, board members, bishops and community supporters he could name.
He did it in good humor, as always.
"How does one say thanks when so much has been said — and so much has been exaggeration," he says. "It's a shame the leader of an institution receives the recognition. It took all of us working together."
Aymer persuaded those around him to take a seminary — though it had been established in 1904 — from being one of Salisbury's best-kept secrets to one of its higher-profile institutions.
Everybody seems to remember when they first met Aymer.
Margaret Kluttz was mayor of Salisbury when Aymer arrived in 1994 from New Jersey, where he was a senior pastor at Morristown United Methodist Church and had been an associate dean at the Drew University Theological School.
"I remember being so impressed and drawn to him," Kluttz recalls. "When you first meet him, you know you're in the presence of someone outstanding."
Today, Kluttz is Hood's development officer.
Bishop Leonard Bolick, head of the N.C. Lutheran Synod, which has its headquarters office in Salisbury, remembers first meeting Aymer at a local restaurant.
"You look like you're a pastor," Aymer said to Bolick. "We need to get together and talk."
The men didn't realize it then, but they would work to bring together the Lutheran Synod and the AME Zion Board of Bishops, establishing a formal covenant between the denominations.
The agreement looks for ways, inspired by God's spirit, to work together and glorify God, Bolick says.
Aymer and Bolick also became neighbors. The seminary and the Lutheran Synod sit next to each other off Interstate 85.
The Rev. Angela Roberson knows the exact date she first met Aymer — Feb. 11, 2005. She was attending a lecture series, and she recalls Aymer's warm hospitality toward her. In their conversation, Aymer was soon telling Roberson the new semester would begin on the first Saturday in September, how holy communion would be conducted and that the seminary would be opening that fall on a new campus.
"I think he was pretty much saying, 'I expect to see you there,'" Roberson says. She was, and she became a student government president during her time at Hood.
Stephanie Wilson, who just earned her master of divinity degree and is the outgoing SGA president, said Aymer was always approachable and, except for his Tuesdays at Rotary Club, often ate lunch with the students.
He often welcomed students into his office, whose walls are filled with his many theological books and papers.
Friends such as Dr. Grant Harrison, Hood's first doctor of divinity graduate, note Aymer has worn many hats at the seminary, including administrator, dean, professor, recruiter, fundraiser and confidante.
Lewis, the retired pastor of First Presbyterian Church, considers Aymer a great New Testament scholar and preacher.
Aymer has often been a guest pastor at Salisbury churches, including First Presbyterian Church, one of the city's largest. He became close friends with Lewis as soon as he arrived in Salisbury and has befriended Lewis' successor, Dr. Jim Dunkin.
Lewis says he remembers looking out into the congregation one Sunday and seeing Aymer, whom he knew from his doctoral studies at Drew University. Aymer had just arrived in Salisbury.
Over the years, Aymer won the hearts of black, white, young, old, male and female — and you have to realize what it has meant to the community, Lewis says. Aymer made himself — and Hood — visible by sitting on the United Way, Rowan Regional Medical Center Foundation and Housing Advisory boards.
In retirement, Lewis became an adjunct professor over the Doctor of Ministry program at Hood.
Dunkin says nine years ago, during the interview process that brought him to Salisbury, he kept hearing about Aymer. Dunkin has come to know him since then as "a very special servant of God."
When Aymer was scheduled to preach recently at First Presbyterian, Dunkin told his congregation, "Everybody loves Albert."
"And everybody does," Dunkin says.
As AME Zion Bishops Ruben Speaks and Joseph Johnson were trying to persuade Aymer to come to Hood as its presiding dean, Aymer also was weighing an offer to become an associate dean at the divinity school at Yale University.
Aymer himself describes how comfortable he was as senior pastor of the Morristown church with some 1,200 members. He thought he could easily retire in that position. He was 58 at the time. Why should he choose to head a non-accredited seminary he knew nothing about?
"We never thought he would come," says Johnson, now Hood's bishop-in-residence and professor of church administration. The AME Zion Church is the sponsoring denomination of the Hood seminary.
But Aymer has said his three daughters, one in particular, asked whether he was giving enough back to the black community.
Aymer sensed a calling to come to Hood, despite all the rational arguments against it. Aymer says the AME Zion bishops were panicking at the time, fearful of losing Livingstone College's accreditation because its seminary was not accredited.
In the end, Aymer decided on Hood by following the words of Methodist founder John Wesley, who said, paraphrased, "go not to those who want you, but go to those who need you most."
"I still don't know what was wrong with me," laughs Aymer, who speaks with an accent from his native Caribbean island of Antigua.
Aymer protests when someone mentions his accent.
"I don't have an accent — you folks have an accent," he says.
Aymer often speaks out loud to God, and he remembers his words the first day he stood on the steps outside the small Hood seminary building at the edge of the Livingstone College campus.
"God," he said, "you're having fun with me."
When Aymer first arrived at Hood as its dean in September 1994, there was hardly a staff, less than 30 students and most of the faculty was adjunct. There was no admissions office, just the dean and his administrative assistant. "Hood was something thinking itself to be a school," Aymer said once.
Checks written in support of Hood were written to Livingstone College, and the seminary was never sure of seeing that money.
When Aymer first tried to send out a bulk mailing to 300 to 400 churches, he learned there were no funds for the postage required.
Aymer systematically started to develop the seminary by building its curriculum and faculty, gaining the important accreditations and keeping it fiscally solvent, while heading toward the day of independence from Livingstone College.
That split, though supported by the bishops, became publicly fractious to one Livingstone College president and some trustees, but through the years Aymer has been able to mend fences with the college.
Livingstone College President Dr. Jimmy Jenkins, going on his eighth year as president, says of Aymer: "He has been a friend, and this has been his other home."
While Hood may have students representing up to 15 to 16 different denominations at times, Aymer is quick to point out how important the AME Zion Church has been to the seminary.
He says the AME Zion Church has been responsive and supportive.
Johnson says Aymer demonstrated a love for the AME Zion Church, though he made it clear from the beginning he would remain a member of the United Methodist Church.
"Which was hard for the bishops at first," Johnson says.
But Aymer won them over as he built a school around his desire for racial, gender and denominational diversity and financial stability. "He will squeeze a nickel," Johnson says.
AME Zion bishops stepped up and purchased the former hotel site where Hood now stands and leased it to the seminary for 99 years, at $1 a year. Meanwhile, Aymer led a $15 million capital campaign, depending on meetings such as "Hood Coffees" in churches, homes and businesses, to raise some of the money toward the renovations needed at the former motel.
All those connections Aymer made in the community paid off handsomely, too.
Architect Karen Alexander of Salisbury beautifully transformed the former motel into a seminary campus.
Kluttz, Hood's development officer, often gives tours to visitors, who always seem to leave saying they didn't realize what all was happening on campus.
Students attend classes as part of one of two tracks. One track takes place Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays; the other, Fridays and Saturdays.
There's also a satellite campus in Greenville, Ala., serving students in that region through interactive classrooms on the Salisbury campus. Those students still are required to spend a certain number of hours in Salisbury to earn their graduate degrees, and they often attend summer classes or intensive sessions held in January.
Two of the motel's former buildings are still used as dormitories. Kluttz says about 80 students take advantage of the on-campus rooms. Overall, she judges that a little more than a third of the total enrollment are students from the greater Charlotte region.
A voluntary chapel service is held every day classes are in session from 10:10 to 11 a.m. Students also spend plenty of time in the well-stocked library, another of Hood's often overlooked resources, though it's open to the public.
Copies of all dissertations and thesis papers also are kept here.
Toward the rear of campus, Summit Developers is building a $2.8 million refectory, which will be the campus' new dining hall with a full kitchen. Right now, lunches on campus are catered.
"This is going to change the dynamic of the campus greatly," Kluttz says of the new building, expected to be completed in October. "It will be the hub of community life here."
So far, $2.65 million toward the building expansion has been raised. In the future, Hood has plans for a new library and chapel.
Kluttz says three things also have combined to bring Hood closest to its first full endowment, which will cover all the costs of a deserving student each year.
Some years ago, an endowment in Aymer's honor was started.
Earlier this year, the seminary also learned of a generous estate gift to Hood that was left in the will of a New Jersey couple who had been part of Aymer's congregation in Morristown.
Kluttz says the couple never understood why Aymer had chosen Hood over Yale back in 1994, but they saw his vision later when they made a personal trip to Salisbury to visit with Aymer.
The couple left 40 percent of their estate to the seminary.
Their gift and the past contributions to the Aymer fund will be combined with $200,000 being raised through a challenge grant made possible by Bill Stanback, who recently received the Bishop James Walker Hood Award.
Stanback and his wife, Nancy, will match every dollar contributed to the endowment up to $100,000.
Kluttz says the school remains, however, tuition-driven, and the annual operating fund drive is always a big challenge.
"When you give $1,000 to Hood," she says, "it goes a long way."
Aymer won't officially retire from Hood until June 30, 2014, but he will be taking a year's sabbatical until then.
He has always considered himself a teacher first, so that might be part of his future.
His brother, Samuel Aymer, hopes he will write.
Ned Storey, an Aymer friend and trustee emeritus at Hood, says, "I have a lot of plans for him."
Aymer's longtime assistant at Hood, Phyllis Wells, who also is director of auxiliary services, plans to stay on with the new president.
"He has a way of bringing things out in you," Wells says of Aymer. " When he talks, you listen. What he says is very meaningful. I have picked up a lot I didn't know."
Sara Cook, a Hood trustee, says it fills her heart with joy to know how many people love Aymer and, in turn, love Hood, as she discovered in helping to plan his recent tribute dinner and the students-alumni reception at Livingstone College's Events Center.
Together, those two events attracted some 1,500 people and, as Cook notes, were inclusive of the whole community.
Therein might lie Aymer's greatest gift and legacy.
"He doesn't see color," Lewis says. "He sees human beings created in the image of God."
Aymer says God did it all.
If God asks you to do something or go somewhere, as he spoke to him in 1994, Aymer says, you should probably realize God already has gone ahead of you to pave the way.

Have I told you already in my other itineraries that it is very easy and convenient to travel within Europe with public transportation, including trains, coaches, planes and urban transportation?...Low cost flights connecting hundreds of cities and towns in Europe, make planes a cheap and fast option to get to from point A to B.
For getting from Roma to Barcelona I took Vueling, a Spanish low-cost carrier, which offers good service for a very low price.
Barcelona....Gaudi, sun, beach, an amazing nightlife and a beautiful landscape in the surroundings. Besides the most famous sights in Barcelona, such as Parc Guell, the harbour and Sagrada and also visited Montserrat, an amazing mountain, only 30min away from Barcelona. Don't miss to chill out at the beach during the evening and have some drinks in one of the beach bars.
After 4 amazing days in this beautiful city, I took a coach to Madrid. During the trip I was able to enjoy the nice landscape of Spain's inner land and had an interesting talk with locals, who told me about the Spanish civil war.
Madrid is totally different to Barcelona, but nevertheless an amazing city as well. During my last days of the trip, I went to a couple of museums and enjoyed Madrid's famous nightlife. Don't forget to visit Toledo, a medieval town, just 30min by high speed train from Madrid...
To put it in a nutshell – my trip to Europe was worth every penny and I can highly recommend visiting the old continent!

BMC Mountainbike Racing Team
BMC Racing Cup, Round 6 in Davos
After a hard training week Lukas Flückiger and Moritz Milatz succeeded at the BMC Racing Cup in Davos in taking fourth and fifth place on the podium.
Milatz and and his teammate had lost contact with the three-man leading group in the second lap. He then shared with Martin Fanger fourth and fifth place for quite some time whereas Ralph Naef und Lukas Flueckiger were riding a little bit behind them. In lap four and five the BMC quartett joined forces, and then Ralph Naef sacrificed himself for his teammates on the flat passages.
Whereas the four BMC riders managed to approach the lead group, they did not succeed in closing up to them. Moreover Lukas Flückiger had a crash, but due to a strong final lap he was able to take fourth position away from Milatz.
"I've trained a lot this week, and the result seems to be just exactly what I expected it to be," said Flückiger.
"As a matter of fact, I was feeling really good after this hard week of training," said Moritz Milatz after the race at the high altitude of Davos: "It was quite okay."
Martin Fanger crossed the finish line in sixth position, showing an upward trend after a period of illness. Ralph Naef was also not dissatisfied with his performance after he had put himself at the service of the team.
Reto Indergand was second best U23 rider on eleventh position.
