One woman's attempt at living a more sustainable life on 1/10 of an acre in the city....

Giving my pastor the finger, yet another life lesson....
Now, this is going to come as a surprise to some of you however, I have a confession to make...
I am intense and I lack patience.
I have been trying very hard to slow down, relax, and exert patience whenever possible, however these are areas within myself that still need work. The truth about me is, I constantly attack life with 100% of myself. I seldom relax, and I multi-task in a way that would make an air traffic controller juggling fire look sedate.
People constantly ask me: "How do you do everything that you do?" Well, the answer is, I do life fast, with a purpose and I am bold beyond reason most days.
This takes us to Friday....
Friday afternoon, I ran to the grocery store after work and then in my post grocery store "I just spent $178- but still don't want to cook" state of mind, I decided I had to have Chipotle for dinner. Quickly, I hit up Chipotle, took it "to-go" since I had my groceries in the car,and headed home. I was SO excited about the Chipotle sitting next to me that I could NOT get there fast enough.
Two miles down the road there was a stop light. The car in front of me was stopped and preparing to turn left, and the car coming at them was stopped and was preparing to turn left also. We were stopped for approximately 27 seconds, which in my mind was WAY too long, while we waited for one of them "to own" the turn so we could all go about our business. As we are sitting there a dark blue Camaro goes whizzing by me on the right, and my thoughts: "At least one of might get home in a timely fashion tonight!"
So, I did what came naturally to me.
I ashamed God.
I rolled down my window, honked the horn, flipped off the car coming at me, and screamed "MAKE A DECISION ALREADY!!" Then in hit me in slow motion....
**** Side note right here: For the last little while, I have sat 9 rows from the front of our church staring at a newer pastor, whom I really don't know except in passing, and my thoughts have always been: "Man, she looks like Sarah Palin!" ****
I looked at the car coming at me and my immediate thought was: "Man, that woman looks just like Sarah Palin!" Then it hit me!
I frantically called The Reluctant Farmer: "Honey, you are never going to believe what I did! On second thought, you probably will believe me... I flipped off Pastor Rachel! I AM GOING TO HELL!"
The Reluctant Farmer immediately starts laughing hysterically, and in her calm, and even tone says: "I told you that was going to catch up with you one day."
I was NOT amused. "Honey, stop laughing at me! This is not cool! We are going to have to switch churches. I can never go back there again! OH MY GOD!"
Then The Reluctant Farmer promptly pipes up with: "Aren't they going to notice when you don't show up for your Sunday school class?"
CRAP! I had not thought of that! I teach Sunday school to the young children of Jesus every week. (No worries, I do NOT teach them how to give folks "the bird" while driving.) Someone is going to notice if I disappear....
So, I stewed on this for the rest of the night AND was still stewing on this when The Reluctant Farmer got home from work.
RF: "Hey there! Are you still upset about flipping the pastor off in a fit of road rage?!"
Me: "YES! I can't show my face there EVER again! We are NOT going back! I am so EMBARRASSED!"
RF: "Would you feel different about this situation if the person had not been Pastor Rachel?
Me: "Yes. I wouldn't feel guilty at all!"
RF: "That is NOT Christian like behaviour! Why were you in such a hurry anyway? Were you late for something?!"
Me, with my head hung in shame: "No, I wanted to eat my Chipotle!"
RF: "All that for Chipotle?!"
Me: "It made logical sense at the time...."
Then in my mind I thought, perhaps Pastor Rachel had not seen me. It would be between me and God, and no one would be the wiser. I would repent by sitting in the front row, tithing an extra 2%, and all would be right with the world. Except in my heart I did not just let God down. I let myself down too....
So, this morning I went to church, and you know what?!
Whether it be guilt, coincidence, or just God trying to teach me a lesson, Pastor Rachel was EVERYWHERE! I saw her when I came out of the bathroom, when I stood in line for my coffee, when I stopped to talk to some folks in the lobby, when I walked to my seat. Heck, I saw her more in the 30 minutes before church than I normally would have seen her if she was preaching that Sunday!
Then, as she and her husband were standing alone for a minute before service started, I saw my opportunity to make things right with God, Pastor Rachel, and her family.
Me: "Um, hi. I think I owe you an apology. I may have been less than Christ-like in my driving on Friday night, and I don't know if you noticed or not, but I pretty much flipped you off. And I am sorry...."
Immediately, they both started laughing, and asked me where this happened because they had not seen me acting like a nut. (Praise Jesus!) And Rachel went on to explain they were stopped, and about to make the turn when they saw that blue Camaro, barreling up the side of the road, and were discussing the fact that they were both glad they had not turned because that car would have hit them.
Thankfully Pastor Rachel saw the humor in the situation and I have learned a valuable lesson. I will never use my middle finger again while driving.
Message received, God!

Because I Can't Eat You!
Tonight my dear friends Kelley and Ralph came over to took at my horse Mia, whom had suddenly developed pain in her right front foot. I tell you Mia was a rock star for Ralph! Even though it hurt her, she allowed him to test her hooves and examine her, never once acting up. Ralph worked on her front foot finding an abscess, recommended I call our horse vet in the morning, however in the mean time suggested I soak Mia's foot in Epsom salts. It sounded easy enough...
I went out, bought a bucket, a bag of Epsom salts and headed back to the barn to soak the princess' foot. Calmly, she gets out of the stall, and then it goes downhill in a hurry.
Me: "I just need you to put your foot in the bucket of salt water."
Horse: "What?! In that bucket?!"
Me: "Yes, that bucket. Just pick up your foot and put it in the bucket."
The horse dips the tiniest bit of her toe in the bucket, her eyes widen, head and ears go up and then: "OH JESUS! That water touched me!"
"Relax, you gets baths ALL the time. You are not dying...."
"Um, baths with cold water! Not with warm water, and not on my foot!", as she steps backwards dumping the bucket of salt water all over the floor. "Stupid human! See what you did?! You dumped water all over the floor!"
"No, I did NOT spill the water. YOU spilled the water and now instead of warm water you will have to soak your foot in cold water, because we are in a barn and that is ALL we have! Now, put your fecking foot IN the bucket!"
With her best sulking horse face: "Fine. I will put my foot in the bucket, but you could be nicer you know..."
I fill up the bucket with water and salt again, and once again I lift her leg to place her foot in the bucket.Mia looks at me, wide eyed, and with a certainty that death is near: "OH GOD! That water touched my foot AGAIN!"
"Yes and you did not die the first time, so stand still."
"I can't do it! What if I fall into that small bucket of water and DIE?!"
"Um, you will not fall in that bucket and .... SPLASH!" She spills the water everywhere again....
"Mia you have an abscess, you are in pain, and you really need to soak your foot. Put your damn foot IN that bucket!"
This time I put her foot in the bucket with no water and decide I will pour water into the bucket.
"Okay, we are going to go about this different. I will put your foot IN the bucket. You will stand on your foot and I will fill the bucket of water around you."
"Okay, okay.... That sounds like a good idea Human!" She puts her foot in the bucket, I pour the water in and BAM! She once again spills the water all over me and the floor.
"Damn it Mia! What the heck?"
"I got nervous."
"I have no idea really."
"Lift up your foot."
"Okay. And put it down like this?!" as she steps through the side of the bucket busting it into a million pieces.
"No Mia! Now we don't even have a bucket to put water in!"
"Oops. What shall we do now?"
"Nothing, you win. You can go back to your stall."
"Yea! Will there be cookies?!"
"NO! You do NOT get cookies for this horrible behaviour!"
As she walks back to her stall with her head hung in sadness... "But Human! Why can't I have a cookie? Sniff.. Sniff.."
"Fine you can have a stinkin' cookie. But I am only feeding you because I can't eat you!"
With her little smirky horse smile: "Checkmate!"
Tomorrow, Round 2. I have a sneaking suspicion I won't win then either....

Write On!
Standing behind me, as an author, are the most supportive folks I could ever ask for. Tonight, as I struggled with a fiction story I am writing, honestly wanting to give up, my daughter and her friend picked up my rough draft and started reading. They both assured me it was really good, and they wanted to know how the story ended. I probably would have sabotaged myself with self doubt for the rest of the night, not believing them, had I not snapped this picture of them reading. It was evident when I looked at this photo later, they weren't lying about my writing. You can't lie about being enthralled, and the focus on their faces tell the truth. Write on...

No Place Like Home!
Tonight as I was just getting out of the shower, The Reluctant Farmer called me and told me she needed my help immediately. She said she was driving down a road about 3 miles out of town and there was a dog running down the middle of the road, so she stopped. She tried to coax the dog to her, but the little dog went into survival mode and just bolted across a corn field, and towards some woods about 2 miles off the road. She asked me to come help her catch the little dog.
When I got there, the dog was gone. Other people had tried to help the little guy, but to no avail, and they had given up on him stating: "Oh, he probably lives around here." That didn't sit well with The Reluctant Farmer, because there is absolutely NO houses to be seen in the area where this little dog was found. At this point we knew we were either searching for a dog that had been dumped or a dog that was on the run and had been for a little while.
I put a long line on Ziggy, our Jack Russell Terrier, and decided to hike in the 2 miles to see if I could vizualize the little dog with his help. Right at the edge of the woods, Ziggy stopped and took scent and I knew we were close. I let Ziggy off leash and watched him get to work, and sure enough, 20 feet down the tree line, there was Sammy the dog in the underbrush. He was in bad shape. He was so thin, covered in mosquitoes and ticks, and wanted nothing to do with me. Thankfully, Ziggy ran an interference, saying hello to Sammy, and while that was going on I used a leash as a lasso him, catching only his 2 ears and his eyes. I bartered with God at that point and pulled out the famous: "If you just answer my prayer God, and let this leash slip around this dog's neck this time, I will never ask for another thing again, until we are out in a field catching stray dogs together the next time", and BAM! I flicked the leash and over his head and onto his neck it slid. Thank God!
I then picked the little fellow up, explained to him that he was safe, and immediately called my friend Julie. I described the dog I had found to Julie and she searched online on a missing pet website, and sure enough she found Sammy's owners.
Turns out Sammy is 14 years old, hard of hearing, has cataracts, and had been missing for 5 days! We were all so excited to get the little man back home to his owners who love him dearly. His dad is a pastor who is preaching his last sermon tomorrow before retirement, and has been sick about loosing this dog. All I can think is, at least his he will now be able to retire with his beloved companion at his side. Also, what a happy Mother's Day to Sammy's mom who now has her baby home.

Life Restructure 2.0
Last month I made a huge decision to simplify my life, and to say "no" to things that didn't bless me. The biggest thing that I let go of was dog rescue.
I had been saying I was going to quit, but then someone would ask for help, I would find a stray, etc. and I would be right back at it. A month ago though, my focus was different. I quit for real... No more sitting on the rescue's board, no more meetings/obligations, no more folks on Facebook that were only rescue acquaintances. I was done.
I won't lie, it's been a struggle. I've had to re-evaluate close friendships that were originally based strictly on rescuing animals, and I've had to do a lot of thinking. I feel like I'm going through a season of my life where I am once again, evolving and digging deeper into my life's purpose. I will be frank, this journey has scared the shit out of me. The last time I went on a journey of this caliber, I was 25 years old. I was stuck in a dead-end job, was feeling hopeless in a dead-end marriage, and was trying really hard to run from my sexuality.
It was during this time that my friend bought a house in the country, and there was something about this place that just felt magical. I don't know if it was the location, the ambiance of frogs chirping as the sun set in the distance, the presence of my friend, or the entire package, but I remember just going to her house to decompress. Sometimes she would be home, sometimes she would be at work and I would just hang out on her deck with her dogs. (There used to be an on going joke between the two of us, that I got more use out of her mortgage than she did.) I only remember that her house was a place of healing for me. It was a place where I went because the rest of the world seemed to be at my back, yet she never judged me. She just loved and accepted me for who I was, and as I picked myself up and put one foot in front of the other, her house became less and less a necessity, but still a welcome get away when she went on vacation.
It was almost ironic that during the time of another "life restructure", I was asked to house-sit for her and her husband while they were away on vacation. I tell you, I absorbed every minute of it! Until yesterday, I had not been home in 2 weeks. Instead, I holed myself up at their house, reading, writing, drinking wine, and slowing down. I enjoyed the company of their friends over dinner and long walks. I sat on the deck for hours watching their chickens run in the yard below me, and many nights I listened to the peep frogs sing well into the early morning.
Somewhere in the middle of this beautiful experience, I realized everything will be okay. I'm not comfortable with where I am yet, but I'm confident in the steps I'm taking to get there. Today, I will face the world refreshed and with a new sense of peace. It's a comfort that feels oddly familiar, but until now had long been forgotten....

Peep of Epic Proportion!
Even though my birthday is on April Fool's Day, I was determined to have no flare this year.
There were no presents. No cake.
Just lots of birthday cheer, cards, and kind words.
Well, that was until Thelma and Louise arrived on the scene!
These two changed the course of my 37th birthday with the most ridiculously awesome present ever!
You have to know I LOVE Peeps.
They are best stale, brick hard, and served with a glass of milk.
My love for these marshmallow creations has sort of become a family joke, and each year around this time, the people who love me grace me with Peeps in all different forms:
Peep bubbles.
Chocolate covered Peeps.
New flavored Peeps.
Peep cakes.
You get the idea.
This is the first time I have ever gotten this though!
A stuffed Peep of Epic proportion!
What I will do with it?!
I have no idea...
But it's pretty cool!

I am changed...
For the last few months I've thrown myself into something new. I have started volunteering every Sunday morning as a small group leader at Ginghamsburg Church. (Think Sunday school teacher, but modern...) Anyways, I volunteer in the first grade room with all sorts of fresh faces and young minds that are like little sponges.
Now, I won't lie, I only volunteered to do this because I was hoping I could give up one hour a week, and that would be what got me into Heaven. I mean seriously, what else could make God happier than me volunteering with His youngest fans?!
I pictured me standing at the pearly gates talking to God and it going something like this: "Yo God, what's up?! I know I sinned a few times in the years I was down there on earth. As you probably know, I got that speeding ticket in a school zone last year, I lost my patience with a slow driver and kinda sorta yelled obscenities at her several days ago, and I lost my cool with my dog today, but you know what?! I volunteer for one hour every Sunday with 15 little 7 year-old kids, and THAT should guarantee me a place in Heaven!"
As sure as the sky is blue, I know God is still laughing at me and my stupid thought process....
Anyways, I want you to know I volunteered in this place for 1 day and realized two things. If I was going to do this correctly, I had to devote more than one hour a week to this cause. I also realized I was in WAY over my head! It was so overwhelming at first. There were children running everywhere, I had no idea what a "zone buck" was, and the worst part? There was DANCING involved! Yes, dancing.... If you know me, you know I don't dance, but you only know that because you have NEVER seen me dance! (Well, most of you haven't, and for those of you that have seen me dance, well that was from a life a long time ago. Let's just keep that on the down low...) I was so out of my comfort zone, even worse than that time I volunteered to work in the coffee shop at church and nearly steamed my eyebrows off with the espresso machine, that I wanted to quit.
BUT, I didn't.... I just kept hearing this voice in the back of my head telling me to keep going back.
And guess what?! Those little monsters woo'd me with their smiling faces and adolescent cuteness, and you know what? My life has been changed because of those kids!
This experience has allowed me to meet some awesome new people, has held me accountable in terms of going to church, has forced me to delve deeper into my Bible so I can answer all the tough questions that cross a 7 yr-old's mind, has allowed me to lovingly tie 400 pairs of shoes, and has taught me to dance. (It's church folks, my new friends can't judge my dance skills, it isn't allowed!)
And the pay for this volunteer position?! It's AMAZING! That's evident in the hugs, thank-you's, and refrigerator art I get every week..... I am one grateful girl right here!

Typically, we think of sunk cost in terms of investing or economics. It's the concept that money or some other cost you have already lost can't be recovered. In business, the idea of sunk cost might come in to play when a project has failed. Management eventually decides that no amount of additional work will save the project. It's best to cut their losses and walk away while they can.

Last week's column focused on six basic things you should know before writing a proposal. Here, we address three more nuanced things to consider.
Some nonprofits create a "boiler plate" proposal and send it out to as many foundations and corporations as possible, hoping to "get a hit." That is one strategy, and sometimes it is appropriate. Making small modifications to a standard proposal is efficient, particularly when seeking to secure sponsorships and smaller grants. In general, we suggest a more targeted approach.
Summer reading is highlighted in Oprah and other magazines each year. A good read is great to enjoy on the beach or curled up on a lawn chair. But what about a good summer write?
That's right – start writing now to help the money come in at the end of the year, or perhaps next spring. That's how it's done. Writing proposals now prevents future complaints such as, "How can I write that proposal in just three days?" It's called planning ahead.

Gov. Bill Haslam and Economic and Community Development Commissioner Randy Boyd announced this week that Hicks Plastics plans to invest $10.4 million to expand its operations to Knoxville, Tennessee.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – The superintendent of Knox County Schools said Wednesday that he's surprised Hamilton County and six Chattanooga-area school systems filed a lawsuit against the state over funding after what he thought was a productive meeting with the governor.
At $1,500 per person or couple, a fundraiser Tuesday, March 24, for the mayoral campaign of Memphis City Council member Jim Strickland is an indication the campaign to the October city ballot is picking up in intensity.
Linn Slocum started making wine from kits because she enjoyed it, later surprising herself by parlaying her hobby into a winery business that has enlivened downtown Knoxville, led to the renovation of a historic site and showcased East Tennessee's farm-to-table food movement.
An East Tennessee mayor has ordered more training for those appointed to city boards after she found possible violations of the state's sunshine laws.
The move stems from a public records request by the Knoxville News Sentinel in relation to a proposed $9 million digital radio system being discussed by the Knox County E-911 Board of Directors. The newspaper reports the city gave it copies of emails on Thursday that show some board members discussed the contract in private.
NEW YORK (AP) – The next phishing email you get could be from your boss.
With high-profile security breaches on the rise, from Sony Pictures to Anthem, companies are on the defensive. And they want to make sure their employees are not a hack waiting to happen.
Before Super Bowl 49, all the talk was about New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady and what they did or didn't know in regards to "Deflategate."
It's official: Hiring season is on! Chances are good you've been sending out your resume online for every interesting job out there. Soon, you'll find yourself invited for in-person interviews.
Ray's take: Do you know the RMD for your IRA? How about your AGI for the IRS? Or does the alphabet soup of financial terms leaving you scratching your head?
Some people watch interviews with investment professionals and look for subtitles, as if the conversation is in another language. It often is. Investment and tax news is typically delivered in cryptic acronyms which seem to be designed to confuse rather than inform.
With gas prices dropping and the economy continuing to improve, Knoxvillians have much to celebrate as 2014 comes to a close. A number of venues and restaurants have festive plans for New Year's Eve.
Christmas wrapping packed away? Check. 2014 all but in the books? Check. Resolutions for 2015 made? Maybe. Check. Making plans for New Year's Eve? Check. Check.
New Year's Eve revelers have choices of how they want to ring in 2015 while celebrating a successful – or at least completed – 2014. There's no time yet for making resolutions when two of the year's biggest parties are about to blast Knoxville with noisemakers and fireworks.
People with an eye for inexpensive yet great vacation or short getaway destinations are likely to land in Knoxville.
Knoxville ranks ninth in the nation on hotel search trivago.com for Best Value City with a ranking of 91.59, coming in between Springfield, Mo., and Little Rock, Ark.
Retired air traffic controller Sterling King moved to Knoxville when his brother needed him. Five years later, he has fallen in love with the area and everything it has to offer.
Moderate weather, without the bone-chilling Northern winters or the searing heat of Florida summers, is a big draw, along with its location in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, says King, 58, who migrated from Dayton, Ohio, to Raleigh, North Carolina, and then to Knoxville.
WASHINGTON (AP) – The White House is singling out Boston, San Francisco, Seattle and 13 other cities for leading their peers in efforts to address climate change.
The winners of the competition for cities will receive additional government resources to deal with global warming's impacts, including data tools and a dedicated coordinator to help cities access federal funding.
WASHINGTON (AP) – We may be the Internet generation. But we don't know much about how it works.
A new Pew Research Center survey released Tuesday found most people can recognize Microsoft founder Bill Gates and know that hashtags belong in tweets, but are confused about whether having a privacy policy means that a company actually keeps consumer information confidential.
A 30-year community tradition returns to WKNO with the tape-delayed broadcast of 15 University of Memphis Tiger basketball home games.
The broadcasts will begin Tuesday, Dec. 2, at 10:30 p.m. on WKNO/Channel 10, featuring the Tigers' game with Stephen F. Austin State University.
It was early. How else do you define an NBA game played on Nov. 17?
But it was important, the game seeming to hold value beyond the single win (which went to the Grizzlies) or the one loss (which went to the Houston Rockets).
From murders to burglaries, most of Knoxville's crime can be attributed to illegal drugs, police say.
But even as crime figures have remained static for years, where you live likely determines how you feel about crime and safety.
While the tourism industries in Pigeon Forge and Knoxville are quite different, they are inextricably linked.
Only about 35 miles apart, they are gateways to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and happily share tourism dollars.
The Women's Basketball Hall of Fame was supposed to be built in Jackson when it was first envisioned.
But after fundraising efforts fell faltered there, Lady Vols coaching legend Pat Summitt and Gloria Ray, the first UT women's athletic director, spearheaded a fundraising effort and gathered $8 million for the facility that opened in Knoxville in 1999.
When Kim Trent moved to Knoxville in 1990, she could stand along Gay Street on a Sunday and be the only soul in sight. Today, she's a face in the crowd.
Multiple industry sectors have always been a strength for the Knoxville job market, and that deep bench is helping the area once again as state and national economies improve.
From high-tech spinoffs out of both the University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratories to a strong manufacturing climate, the area is benefiting as both companies and investors ramp up their expansion and hiring efforts, says Rhonda Rice, who serves as executive vice president of the Knoxville Chamber
Knoxville's housing market seems to be making steady gains after the setbacks of the Great Recession.
Doyle Webb, president of the Knoxville Area Association of Realtors and a Realtor with Realty Executives Associates, says the area's housing market will continue to improve over the next five to 10 years and surpass its 2007 sales' levels.

A storm packing winds that gusted to 50 miles an hour Monday, July 14, knocked out power to more than 30,000 people Monday evening.
The Shelby County Office of Preparedness tracked damage reports after the storm moved into the Memphis area at around 4:30 p.m. Damage reports include a tree falling on a home in the 8300 block of Burning Tree Lane and a tree blocking the intersection of Carrington near Haynes in the Orange Mound area. No one was injured in either incident.
WASHINGTON (AP) – In an increasingly global economy, just 1 in 10 teenagers around the world is able to make some key – but complex – financial decisions, including choosing among various loans or analyzing invoices and pay slips.
Four years ago at about this time, Shelby County voters were seeing a lot of the four contenders for the Republican Party's nomination for governor.
This election year, Shelby County voters are seeing a lot of the top two contenders for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate.
American Housing Month, recognized each June, is an opportunity for individuals to better understand the process of buying a home and the benefits that come along with home ownership.
But what if you're already a proud homeowner, and you're looking to undertake a major reinvestment in your property? Just like when buying a home, it's important to research before committing to any large purchase. There are a few routes available for financing a home maintenance or renovation project, and the biggest differences are interest rates and collateralization.
WASHINGTON (AP) – The federal agency tasked with managing oil and gas development on Wednesday acknowledged it needed to do more to improve oversight of drilling, pointing to a lack of funding as reasons it failed to inspect oil and gas wells it considers potentially high risks for water contamination.
I was walking Maggie the Cheagle in the neighborhood, as I often do. This was in November 2012, so the old girl was pushing 10 years old at the time. She was happy enough to stop and greet the young man who was getting out of his car.
NASHVILLE (AP) – It's still too early to tell whether an insurance co-op created solely to sell health plans to Tennesseans through the federal government's exchange was able to compete with the state's big insurers.
Memphis coach Josh Pastner admitted the loss was "embarrassing."
Senior guard Geron Johnson said, "I'm disgusted with myself," and vowed not to watch the rest of the American Athletic Conference Tournament at FedExForum that continues with the semifinals Friday, March 14, without the Tigers.
KNOXVILLE (AP) – Renal services provider Fresenius Medical Care has announced it will locate its East Coast manufacturing facility in Knoxville, creating 665 jobs in the coming years.
Gov. Bill Haslam said in a release that the German company plans to spend up to $140 million on the project to build the plant in the city's Panasonic building.
NASHVILLE (AP) – Here's 10 items you should know about Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam's $32.6 billion spending proposal for the budget year beginning in July:
DRIVE TO 55: The governor is proposing to waive tuition to two-year colleges in the state as part of his "Drive to 55" campaign to increase higher education graduation rates from the current 32 percent to 55 percent by 2025. The program would be paid for through an endowment created with lottery reserve money. He has also earmarked $15 million in new spending toward the effort.
There are times when it seems what we need isn't so much a way to draw tourists to the city as an effort that includes keeping our young adults in Memphis or getting them to return.
But that isn't nearly as easy a path as it seems.

It takes a certain set of balls to let Chumbawamba lyrics introduce your film ("Tubthumping," of course), but Balls Out isn't just Any movie. Andrew Disney's underdog sports comedy is far from conventional, and while it begins like every other "road to athletic redemption" story, a constant mockery of the sports genre rulebook turns this pee-wee effort into a Jv superstar. It's not exactly a Tom-Brady-caliber showstopper, but more a Ryan-Howard-like slugger that belts a home run whenever jokes connect. Just expect some mighty whiffs to accompany those gut-busting dingers. Honestly, though, who cares – chicks dig the long ball, and in that respect, Disney earns plenty of fans.
The story of Balls Out follows a rag-tag intramural football team, the Panthers, and their path to redemption after disbanding during their freshman year. Even though they were crowned league champions, a crippling injury puts Grant (Nick Kocher) in a wheelchair, »

Furious 7 fended off solid newcomers Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 and Unfriended to top the domestic box office for the third weekend in a row.More importantly, the movie had another stunning weekend overseas. Specifically, it continued to do massive business in China, where its earned nearly $250 million through its first eight days.Furious 7 has now grossed $1.15 billion worldwide, which ranks seventh all-time. Even if it falls off quickly from here, it still has a real chance of making it past $1.4 billion by the end of its run.Domestically, Furious 7 fell 51 percent to $29.2 million. In comparison, the last two Fast movies dropped 44 percent and 37 percent at the same point. To date, Furious 7 has earned $294.5 million; it could still reach $350 million, but would need to hold up well against Avengers: Age of Ultron in two weeks.Playing at 3,633 locations, Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 opened to $23.8 million this weekend. »

With $59.6 million, Furious 7 easily held on to first place at the domestic box office. It also got off to an incredible start in China, where it set the opening day record with $68.8 million.At the domestic box office, Furious 7's 60 percent drop was a slight improvement over Fast Five and Fast & Furious 6, both of which fell over 62 percent in their second frames. On Sunday, it passed Fast & Furious 6 to become the highest-grossing entry in the franchise with $251.5 million. Without any serious competition for the next two weeks, the movie is guaranteed to earn at least $350 million total.Worldwide, Furious 7 is already the highest-grossing Fast movie with $801 million. It's now on track to become one of the biggest movies ever with at least $1.2 billion.DreamWorks Animation's Home (2015) held on to the second spot with $18.5 million, which is down 31 percent from last weekend.

It might not have been a particularly surprising occurrence, but it happened all the same. Over the weekend Furious 7 set the record for an opening weekend in April, earning an estimated $143.6 million at the box office (this also makes it the ninth best opening weekend of all time, just so you know). It takes the April record by a wide margin, as it's the first April release to open to over $100 million, so that should give you some idea of just how unique this opening is. Previously, last year's $95 million opening for Captain America: The Winter Solider had the record (and before it, two of the other titles in the Fast and Furious franchise had held the honor), but it now belongs to the latest installment in said Fast and Furious franchise. Now, let me try to break down just why it shattered the record like it did. »

Back in December 2013, we reported that Ed Helms signed on to star in Paramount's remake of The Naked Gun, although the initial story hinted that it may not be a straight-up crime procedural parody like the 1988 comedy classic The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad. The last we heard about the project was in January 2014, when screenwriter Robert Ben Garant insisted that it will be more of a "continuation" of the franchise than a reboot. Now, according to original Naked Gun director David Zucker, this new incarnation won't be a parody or a spoof, essentially confirming the original report. Here's what David Zucker had to say, when asked by Yahoo! Movies if he is involved in this updated version of The Naked Gun.
"I have no involvement in it. They own it and they wanted to do it with Ed Helms and two writers. It won't be »

Has the U.S. turned a corner toward less urban sprawl?
The urban street network is one of the most permanent features of cities. Once laid down, the pattern of streets determines urban form and the level of sprawl for decades to come. In the U.S., urban sprawl has become an enduring hallmark of the past century. Yet, there are some glimmers of hope.

Impact of video gaming on the brain
A new study published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B by the teams of Dr. Gregory West (Assistant Professor at the Université de Montréal) and Dr. Véronique Bohbot (Douglas Institute researcher and associate Professor at McGill University and the Douglas Research Institute of the CIUSSS de l'Ouest-de-l'Île de Montréal) shows that while video game players (VGPs) exhibit more efficient visual attention abilities, they are also much more likely to use navigation strategies that rely on the brain's reward system (the caudate nucleus) and not the brain's spatial memory system (the hippocampus). Past research has shown that people who use caudate nucleus-dependent navigation strategies have decreased grey matter and lower functional brain activity in the hippocampus.


text: hi everyone, i'd like to chime in as another victim of this problem. file transfers with scp on the command line and ssh connections to remote servers via Gnome give me top transfer rates of 16kB/s. this is specific to my installation of Ubuntu (Feisty Fawn) and has nothing to do w/ hardware (on the windoze side on the same machine, transfer rates via ssh are in the 500kB/s range; it's irrelevant whether i use a wired connection or wireless; the particular network also does not matter: home and work are the same). file transfers via http w/ eg wget are unaffected, ie, fast. so, the problem seems to be openssh. however, it's not a specific version since i have both downgraded (to Gutsy) and upgraded (to Hardy from source as described in http://bethesignal.org/blog/2008/01/10/faster-openssh-47p1-in-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron/) the normal Feisty version w/o achieving any improvements. it seems to be a rare problem. most users suffer from the slow login problem, which i do not have. i plan to completely switch to Hardy soon to see if that solves the problem. -- openssh connections not responsive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198087 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu.

Day 35 - Felt blessed at Vatican City
I was quite thrilled about this day, reasons being I was going to visit the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church and the home of pope. The other being it was the last day of my dream trip.

When in Rome; Take a Vacation
... we found this really cool "club" that was nothing like a club back home. It was also ocean-side with a pool and was very calm and relaxing. We finally got some decent pina coladas and another drink which was the closest thing you can get to a strawberry daiquiri over here.
On Sunday, we spend the whole day at the beach. The water was amazing and there was not a cloud in the sky. We could not have asked for better beach weather. Hayley and I had been eyeing ...

Feeling revived and happy to have avoided the heat of the day we headed back out to do some more wandering around Rome. We headed to the Pantheon, where we sat on the steps for a while. By this time we were ready for some gelato. We headed to San ...
Homeward bound to an unknown destination - Part 2
After our first night's sleep in a new home, we wake early. Cristina has said she will take us to the market to stock up on supplies before heading to the beach. An idea that has both Ej and I excited for the day to unfold. Ej eats some yogurt that has been offered to her, and I admire her emancipation. I, however, nervously conduct myself as graciously as I can. I feel awkward and out of place. But I won't let my inhibitions dictate my new experiences. This ...

The deadline for entering the raffle is Friday, Nov. 13. All proceeds will go toward student scholarships. ...read more
Enhancing the educational experience for UVI students is the catalyst for economic and social prosperity in the Caribbean. Success in higher education continues to be one of the critical issues facing the youth of today. When you donate to the UVI Annual Giving Fund, you make an investment in providing a brighter future for our youth, the Virgin Islands and the region.
When you give an annual gift to UVI, you are actually helping to sustain and fortify ongoing programs of central importance to the University's mission of high quality academics, innovative research and dedicated public service. While the opportunity to raise private funding to support UVI's initiatives, endowments and capital projects is crucial to the University's long-term success, annual funds support ongoing, foreseen and unforeseen needs of the institution today.
Many lives are shaped by your generosity. The short list of benefactors include: Community Engagement and Lifelong Learning (CELL) Center, Virgin Islands Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (VI-EPSCoR), the Alfred O. Heath Distinguished Speakers Forum, the Etelman Astronomical Observatory, the Reichhold Center for the Arts, the Man-Up Conference and many other programs vital to the UVI community.
Donating to the UVI Annual Giving Fund is an investment to address the needs of the Territory. Your contribution serves to continue this mission by facilitating social and economic development in our community. The Annual Giving Fund needs your help in the ambitious initiative to raise $3.4 million this year.

Twitter suspends Rob Ford parody account @TOMayorFrod
Richard Feren, the man behind @TOMayorFrod, has been told his mock Twitter account has been shut down.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
View 3 photoszoom
Twitter has suspended one of the most popular Mayor Rob Ford parody accounts, after receiving a complaint.
Richard Feren, the man behind @TOMayorFrod, was notified around 11 a.m. Wednesday after sending out a few tweets that morning, including: "My condolences to my friend Vladimir Putin whose hockey team was bullied out of the Olympics by gay-loving Finland."
A spokesperson for the popular social networking service told the Star it has a policy against commenting on personal accounts.
But an email the company sent Feren late Wednesday said Twitter had "received a complaint that your account, @TOMayorFrod, may be in violation of Twitter's policies on impersonation and/or trademark." It gives him 48 hours to change the photo and biography on the account.
It goes on to say, "If you had intended to create a parody, commentary or fan account, your account will not be in violation so long as it complies with our policy for such accounts."
"What I don't understand is, I've been doing this for eight months — I don't understand why it's a problem now," Feren said of the sudden suspension of his account, which has about 7,800 followers.
The accounts do look very similar, with the same photo avatar, same background image of Toronto's skyline at night, and a similar biography. The flipped "o" and "r" is the only notable difference.
It's not clear who made the complaint.
"I'm sure there's lots of parody accounts. There's only one Rob Ford, I can guarantee that," the mayor said about the suspension when asked about it at city hall earlier Wednesday. Asked if he believed the user should be deleted, Ford said "If it's not me, it should be."
The mayor's chief of staff clarified later that the mayor's office doesn't have a problem with parody accounts.
Feren launched his alter ego last May, after the crack video scandal broke.
"I started it because right after (Ford's former spokespeople) resigned, there were tweets from the mayor's official account saying the office is still functioning, phone calls are being returned. I thought that was funny. So I started doing other official updates," said the 46-year-old composer.
His last post before the suspension read: "Begrudgingly presenting a plaque to some librarian finally retiring from the gravy train. It's a start."
For the most part, Feren said, he just tries to stick with the facts of the day.
"I'm not always going for the laugh; just trying to sum it up and really highlight the irony and hypocrisy. A lot of the time I'm using his own words and his own actions," he said.
Last November, Feren outed himself as the man behind @ToMayorFrod in a article on Canada.com, in which Feren admitted he himself had once been a crack cocaine user.
"While this is a difficult thing to publicly admit, Ford's recent admission has inspired me to provide a personal perspective, especially in light of how much attention the Mayor Frod tweets have received," he wrote. Feren said he was able to overcome his addiction by admitting he had a problem and doing the work.
"As a result, I feel no empathy for Rob Ford or his sister and mother, let alone his brother Doug. None of them will admit there is a problem. Rather, they blame anyone who suggests that there is. The situation would be bad enough if the mayor was a private citizen, but he is the mayor of my city, whose refusal to step down even temporarily is an act of sheer malice."

Speaking to the Star, Feren said that because of his own experience, "It's not really about the drugs. It's about the lying."

text: SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads) I'm thinking of buying a practice, after I eventually get through residency. Sure hope I get in somewhere for residency... Anyways, I have an opportunity all lined up with relative that is going to retire when I'm done and I am going to buy his practice. A few questions for those much more knowledgable than I. 1. He makes about $600,000 a year. How much do you think it would cost to buy his practice? We haven't discussed cost yet. I think he will give me an okay deal. I don't know the number of patients he has, but it seems he consistently sees around 120 people per week in clinic and has 2 surgery days. Pretty busy (At least I think that's busy). 2. How many patients would I expect to lose when I buy the practice? 20%? It just seems you would lose a lot of patients that just wouldn't trust a young doctor.

Enhance your health with the super-strength antioxidant force of 750 mg of gamma tocopherol! Swanson Ultra Gamma Tocopherol offers one of the highest potencies available of this important form of vitamin E. Gamma tocopherol is quickly becoming the most popular form of vitamin E due to its association with prostate and colon health, plus its ability to promote cardio function.
Recent evidence shows that the gamma form of vitamin E may be more important to overall protection than the alpha form. Gamma tocopherol is more rapidly taken up and turned over in the tissues than is alpha tocopherol.
Cardiovascular health—Researchers found that gamma tocopherol was more effective than the alpha form in reducing several events associated with oxidative stress. Higher tissue concentrations of gamma tocopherol are associated with improved cardiovascular wellness.
Antioxidant power—In several studies, the alpha form of vitamin E often worked better when combined with gamma tocopherol for antioxidant protection, and others showed it offered even greater protection from free radicals in some parts of the body, especially the prostate, colon and lungs.
Prostate and colon—Gamma tocopherol may play an important role in the cellular health of the colon and prostate. New studies have shown that gamma tocopherol can protect colon cells, possibly because gamma tocopherol appears in higher concentrations in the bowel than in the blood. Gamma tocopherol has shown to protect prostate and lung cells from free-radical damage.
Breast tissue health—Evidence indicates that women who consume the most dietary vitamin E, which consists of mostly gamma tocopherol, are able to help promote healthy breast tissue and cellular growth.
Swanson Ultra Maximum-Strength Gamma Tocopherol is a potent 750 mg of natural gamma tocopherol combined with natural alpha tocopherol and two other important forms of vitamin E, providing the utmost antioxidant, cardiac and cellular health protection.

LOS ANGELES -- Lost in the hype of two other major Los Angeles arrivals -- with the Lakers' Dwight Howard and Steve Nash demanding most of the attention during the offseason -- Jamal Crawford's signing by the Los Angeles Clippers went largely unnoticed. Crawford found the spotlight Wednesday. The 32-year-old guard had a game-high 29 points, and the Clippers broke away from the Memphis Grizzlies late to take a 101-92 win at Staples Center in the season opener for both teams. A rematch of the teams' hotly contested 2012 first-round playoff matchup, won by the Clippers in seven games, Wednesday's game was chippy from the start. Both teams doled out hard fouls, and the score remained close for much of the night. A Crawford 3-pointer with 2:41 left put the Clippers up by six, though, and the Grizzlies never got closer. "It was crazy in there," said Los Angeles forward Blake Griffin, who had 11 points and seven rebounds. "Their team is extremely physical. We tried to play physical...

My gut has healed I now eat starches and grains in extreme moderation and I don't touch sugar.
Do you mind my asking, how long were you on the diet, and was there anything else you did to heal your gut? Dh and ds are still needing healing, and I've been wondering lately when their guts will be healed. They're definitely doing better, but just wondering. When we feel their guts are healed, like you, we won't be eating much grain at all (and only gluten-free) and probably not a lot of starch either (ds has type 1 diabetes, and starches aren't very good for his blood sugars). We haven't eaten sugar in years, and won't go back to it.
Anyway, just wondering if you'd share a little more information about your experience. Also, how did you determine that your gut was healed (been wondering about that also).
I think I was on the diet 7-8 months. Incredibly strict w/TONS of probiotics, including at least a quart of raw goat milk yogurt a day and tons of kombucha. I also did not have a yeast problem to start with. I've also stopped farting , which I was legendary for.
In terms of "being done" it was just intuitive, so I can't really explain that.
