Halloween is close. With this season in mind I'd like to present to you Pumpkin Farm. The main house is almost as big as the stables. The stables fit two horses, and has an extra room upstairs. If you like, you can add the Store Chicken Coop and the Cow Settlement. Did not include this in the download, but it would look nice .
whether you need to farm or raise a family, this farm is it!

Access to electricity has its downfalls. First, if the cord isn't long enough you will need to make sure you have a proper extension cord. Using the wrong cord is a fire hazard. Do the math (watts / volts = amps) and make sure you have the right extension cord. The smoker is also less mobile, and if it's stored outside it absolutely must have a cover. Electrical components and weather don't mix.
If you're in the market to buy a grill, yet you've only grilled with propane or charcoal in the past, wood pellet grills may have piqued your curiosity. These grills use a very different cooking method than the direct flame of propane, resulting in more even heating and more precise temperature control. A wood pellet grill is more like a smoker than an open flame grill, as it's difficult to sear meat with a wood pellet grill. Purchasing and using a wood pellet grill is going to be more expensive than propane and charcoal grills.
You want to easily switch to different smoky flavors: Changing flavors in your Traeger grill is as easy as changing the pellets that you place in the hopper. Through its website, Traeger offers several different smoky flavors of hardwood pellet offerings, including hickory, mesquite, apple, maple, cherry, and oak. And Traeger's website provides information on which types of hardwoods provide the best smoky flavor for certain types of foods, which can help you successfully use this grill immediately out of the box.
With 341 square inches of cooking space and a digital control board that sets the temperature from 180 to 500 degrees, you'll be cooking whole meals in this grill, even though it's the smallest model that Pit Boss makes. It will hold up to a dozen burgers for parties, or a chicken and vegetables for the family dinner. When cooking is done, the porcelain coated grill grates are easy to clean.

The world of politics was once a thing with gusto, a means to which to represent the people and bring change that benefitted the many. Now it seems that the arena of governmental officials has become a new level of entertainment, especially given the portrayal of the players in a number of media designs. Tonight though, the film I review is focusing on this playing field, portraying that fine line between media circus and political justice. Robbie K here with another review, this time taking a look at the latest biography/drama called;
Movie: The Front Runner (2018)
Hugh Jackman, Vera Farmiga, J.K. Simmons
The Acting: The movie doesn't have many special effects to battle for your attention. Instead it relies heavily on the actors to bring their talents to full speed in hopes of bringing the tale to life. Jackman leads the way with his portrayal of a council man, dropping his Australian accent for American drawl filled speeches. A balance of many emotions, he claims a victory in the polls of talent from this reviewer. Simmons as well reprises his Whiplash majestic talents to bring a counter balance to Jackman's antics. In addition Farmiga brings her talents to the screen with piano playing, voices of reason, and a nice break from the political game.
The Use Of All Characters: This film may be about Jackman's character Gary Hart, but it dives into much deeper facets of the political running for president. In doing so, all parties have a decent amount of screen time and involvement in the film, helping to add their approaches, morals, and thoughts to the collective pot of political prowess. Seeing these angles adds more dynamic nature to the film, helping to piece together the entire story at hand. And having all these characters throughout the story, should give you someone to tune your attention, should senator Hart not be the one you wish to focus on.
The Multiple Angles: Hitting each of the perspectives of this movie brings with it a more engaging film. Hart's journey for presidency is certainly very deep, and the fact it happened over three weeks, is a bit mind blowing given how much things cascaded out of control. Still, in this day and age of political fire, the supposed act may turn you off to the main storyline. So it is nice to have so many parties included in this film, each one's philosophy made apparent to show the heated war that occurs between the media and the political group. It was nice to see this approach, seeing as most political dramas get a little too embossed in the main character's agony and mistakes.
The Topics Of Discussion: This movie is one designed to stimulate discussion among the group. Did the media have the right to take the stance they did? Was his actions enough to cause such an uproar? What about the individual reporters recruited in this chase? These are just some of the questions to run through the film as the events transpire. As such, the Front Runner will certainly be a valuable tool for an ethics class/lesson, helping future generations weigh the decisions in their quest for the truth. Perhaps this is the ideal place to display this piece of work.
The Speeches: Say what you want about the movie, but it gets points for the adapted script and dialogue that brings with it. The Front Runner is all about inspiring a lot of ideas and that comes through the motivational force of the writing. What is the real words and what was the magic, but the Front Runner has those moments that give you goosebumps. The turn of phrase and emotional impact of those moments will hopefully drive the point to you like it did to me. Very nice writing guys.
Slow Pace: Don't be expecting a fast-paced movie here my friends. Gary Hart's journey is very meticulous in detail, and though they skip days at a time, they do everything they can to cram the nearly 2 hour run time with all the details. If you love the drama of a modern ABC show, you'll be fine in this film, but for others like me needing a little more tension, well this won't be the film for you. Speaking of which…
No tension: Political dramas are supposed to have looming threats, with close calls and a ravenous hunger for the truth to be revealed, or at least some looming mystery. Sadly, the movie leaves these out, going for more realism and moral discussion than entertaining bouts of political angst. This is fine, except that is takes away from the theater visiting quality in this reviewer's eyes. So don't anticipate the House Of Cards spin my friends, they didn't go this route.
Some Stories Not Full Circle: A lot of plot points means a lot of threads to tie up, and this movie did a decent job of accomplishing this goal. But not all stories got the nice finish I think they deserved, primarily involving the woman he held interest in and the campaign manager. With such strong characters and the information starting to be gathered, why would they not finish in the strong manner the main tale ended? Not entirely sure myself, but given this isn't a mini-series on television, well it's no surprise.
What Is The Truth?: These movies are always generating the question of how much is truth and how much is the movie magic. Front Runner seems to be on the realistic side, but how much was left out or blurred is something to always question in these films. Depending on your political alignments, your morals on the topics of political hot topics, and other things at hand. Ergo, the movie is still up in the air of the extent of what happened. Guess we have the internet to find out.
The Verdict:
The Front Runner may not be the political drama of the year, but it certainly brings a lot of unique perspectives on the outcomes. I myself certainly enjoyed the multiple outlooks on the event, and the topics it spurred, while of course relishing the acting and dialogue written. Yet, a little more movie magic in terms of suspense alongside some clarification of stories could have gone far for me. Nevertheless, this would have been best left to the history channel or mini-series, leaving this reserved for classroom discussions or at least in your home apartment.
My scores are:
Biography Drama: 7.0
Movie Overall: 6.0

2020 marks The Writer's Garret's 25th birthday of our trek from a "kitchen table" writers' group to a full-fledged nonprofit literary arts center. Today, we still serve the visions of those charter trustees, writers and educators who shared the conviction that quality literature, reading, and writing are essential to the health and well-being of all people.
In the 25 years since our inception, we have brought the power of the literary arts to over 2 million people. Traditionally, we've sent thousands of writers into communities and schools to effect positive change through publications, events, media, and outreach programs that have garnered local, regional, and national recognition: 19 NEAs in 20 years; twice ranked #1 literary project and three times the #1 literary arts organization in the state; the Writers Studio, our acclaimed literary series taped for NPR-affiliates, named both "Best of Dallas" and "Best of Big D"; TEX Magazine, our print literary magazine, in only 5 published issues achieved the highest circulation of any literary magazine in the country.
The Writer's Garret's main goals are to achieve the following through programs and projects that address our mission:
(1) Build a community of readers, educators, and writers that care about the development and dissemination of literature, reading, and writing;
(2) Educate our young to understand, appreciate, and support the impact of literature, reading, and writing;
(3) Provide opportunities for the education and betterment of individuals and communities through enhanced reading and writing skills that cultivate an appreciation of quality literature and critical thinking;
(4) Enable wide and equal access to the stories, letters, and cultural ideas that underscore and challenge our most recognized and cherished ideologies;
(5) Strengthen the infrastructure of educational, literary, and cultural partnerships capable of furthering the impact of literature, reading, and writing.
To foster the education and development of readers, writers, and audiences, by putting them in touch with quality literature, each other, and the communities in which they live and write.
Over the years, we've served over 2 million readers, writers, children & youth, educators and others, sharing with them the value of reading and writing quality, crafted language.
- Children & Youth: Longitudinal studies conducted in DISD and through several of our educational partners have demonstrated that young people in our educational programs show "significant" increases in reading and writing skills and testing scores than their counterparts not studying with us.
- Adult Writers: Many writers attribute their work with The Writer's Garret as leading to many publications, awards and honors, tours, and faculty appointments.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Alpine & Southern' started by MickM, Aug 22, 2006.
hate to say i told you so.
it was never going to happen
The 5400 line is progged to be above the Vic resorts early tomorrow and this is pretty consistent with the cold southerly fetch that is creeping northward thru Bass Straight at the moment.
If you look at the BOM sat pic you can see the cold speckled air mass moving north slowly and the temperatures at some AWS are starting to drop very slowly as they come under the influence of the southerly flow.
I think that there is a chance of some snow tonite and tomorrow morning particularly in the Victorian resorts.
The more northerly and eastern facing areas may not fare so well due to the lingering influence created by todays system. Plus, the NSW resorts appear to have much more to make up for in terms of cover than Hotham and Falls who didn't seem to record as much rain.
There is still some hope I think, so check the cams in the morning around ten, it could be interesting.
If it was in the minus' all today and last night how much snow would be on the ground since this system came? Because their was a big amount of rain. And in the last hour thredbo top station has seen 12.6mm of rain.
25-30 cm
Last 24 hours has seen around 25mm of rain. Roughly in Australia you can expect 1mm = 1+cm.
Lets see what happens tonight. Rain was expected in this system, and then followed cooler air and snow.
Also note the wind is still out of the NW. Wait for it to swing w and then south for the cold air.
I hope your right but it looks to me that by the time the cooler air mass arrives most of the moisture will have left the building. I guess first light will reveal all.
An amazing amount of rain fell at Thredbo today (and PB apparently).
There was inches of water lying over the snow on high noon and the Supertrail today, but surprisingly the snow was still pretty good. Scarey to see so much rain fall.
At the Basin it was sleet/freezing rain, damned painful with the wind (and zero visibility).
I hope it cools down fast, was 8 degrees in the village today.
Seen this all before in July 2003. Massive amounts of rain (I think about 100mm)then followed by about 10cm of snow which made the skiing good the next day. Big issue this year is that we have no base.
10 news perth stated that the WA south coast has its first spring front setting up. apparently the spring fronts take some of the power out of the systems heading east . certainly feels like winter is trying to finish.
The Weather Channel at 5pm's snow report said PB 20cms for tomorrow Ha. Would be nice if they were right ,especially as COLA has downgraded from 5-10cms to 1-5 cms. Temps are dropping slightly though. Think my week from Sunday will be cut short unless Blue Cow(higher) is OK. Dont know if they got something out of todays moisture. Hope Rossi is right!
There are some good negative numbers appearing in Tasmania at the moment. Mt Wellington and some other areas are in the minus'.
If the fetch can make it up to VIC lets hope the cold and some orographics can generate the moisture.
But the current warm blanket of mid level moisture needs to shift first.
I think the southerly maritime air will bring precipitation of the positive kind but its a question of how far north this gets.
wont happen. TAS got the temps but not quite the amount of moisture, mainland got the moisture but not the temps. And it wasnt just like half a degree or so off, it was a good 2C off being snow.
Lightly raining.
gotta drop 2.5C minimum before that turns to snow, and thats not going to happen any time soon.
this country sucks.
Umm well you do live in Canberra! Sorry VSG
Hotham just into the negatives, and Buller about 1degree at the moment.
Not much more precip to come through for Vic now, the Fat lady has sung once again!
Been snowing since about 5am, only a couple of cm's so far. Let's see how long it lasts.
You forecasters are funny.
With the past trends in weather perhaps we will not get much snow at all out of this system, but anything can happen, there is no way of telling no matter how well you can read the charts.
Perisher cams show a definite fall of snow all the way to the car park level.
If it continues during the day I will be very
Charlotte Pass reported 2cm of snow. But if you look at the snow cam it looks much much better then that
tsk, tsk.
Snowing pretty hard now, have to sign off. Will update this evening.
Told ya all last night it was gonna snow.
Not putting any great depths in this but the fetch is still looking good for a day of on an off snow.
Well done style doggie. i cancelled my Sept trip to Hotham, lost $300 and booked a week in Methven. Whole trip will cost only $2000!. Hey if Hutt's shut you've got plenty of other options like Porters or Broken River. Porters has its best snow in 25years!
My mate at Falls reports it is now snowing heavier there.
The forecast snow level is the lowest level that snow is expected to fall in the 24 hour period. The forecast snow amount is the average across all resorts. So it is not 5-10cm for everywhere above 1400m. That forecast is probably for 10cm on the peaks and <1cm <1500m.
Snowing on Buller, on and off since about 5am this morning. Lightly snowing at the moment.
Just a dusting- 1cm at the moment.
Steady good snow since 0500 at Dinner Plain, with little sign of easing. About 3" so far, it's even settled on the mesh top to the ski basket, so it must be heavy
Looks sweet looks like its pumping down! Plenty of precip comming in from the SE heading to the alps so if this came continue all day we will be sitting pretty possibly that luck i was talking about pages and pages ago
Hotham/Falls look like they have got well over 10cms so far.
Buller looks minimal
Snowing steadily/solidly. 1-2cm in the last hour and half.
Seems to have stopped at PB but a bit hard to tell from the cams.
You cant really tell from those cams.
Temps are dropping in SE Vic but unfortunately so is the precipitation. Need the low to slow its tracking east but we should still get a bit from it yet. Probably all over by this evening but we can always hope.
So whats the net loss at the NSW resorts.
16mm of rain at the top of thredders yesterday? it must have been a tidal wave. At least lake jindy should be looking a bit fuller.
Nah, still snowing.
lol.. well, I used to for a few years
Now im back in adelaide where ski trips cost twice as much and can't be cancelled
Can't complain about today's snow falls tho
Just spoke to someone at PB and they said they have had 5 - 10 of very wet snow and it is covering the carpark. He said it is snowing heavier now than before so hopefully the temps are droping.
The slopes have been damaged by the rain so we need a bit to make up the loss.
Jindy and Eucumbene need a whole lot more then a piddly 16mm maybe 166mm and you might see a slight rise.
It's snowing heavily at Lake Crackenback (Thredbo Valley app. 1100m).
PB website reports 10cm so far.
mt p creek looks filled in
My God Professor, It's ALIVE! IT'S ALIVE!!
who remembers seeing the Cam shot of smiggins yesterday ? It was very patchy.
This morning's shot shows it completely covered again so they must have had a good 10cm and that's at about 1600m.
Top of Mt P / Thredbo would have have had 15cm+++ ?
This is the Smigs Cam shot now.
will update.
yesterday this was VERY patchy.
Take a look at the V8 cam, looks to be absolutely bucketing down!!! Look how much is in the trees in the foreground too!!
..and it's still falling The temperature at Thredbo AWS has been gradually falling since early morning and the sat loops look good for a few more hours yet.
looks like last Thursday, but has decided to kick on pass lunch time.
How many cms left do you reckons?????????
Only told the wife this morning the sept ski trip is off. Maybe just maybe.
a metre perhaps
Snowing in Berridale nice fat flakes- Was rainy snow and has just turned to snow only. I think we may see some snow settle this afternoon. Break out ya chains Yee haa!!!!

The World Now Has Prepackaged Chocolate Slices That Look Like Kraft Singles
Prepackaged slices of processed yellow cheese have been so ingrained (and in-grilled) in our American culture that we never stopped to think: Can we put other foods into this portable and easy-to-melt form? The answer, according to Japanese candy company Bourbon, is yes, and this time it's not cheese, but chocolate.
Bourbon is now selling square slices of pliable chocolate wrapped in a thin plastic film.Unfortunately, the cocoa Kraft variants are being sold strictly in bulk online and in Japanese supermarkets, but we can only imagine the confectionary possibilities. Grilled chocolate and cream cheese sandwiches? Check. Super smooth and easy-to-bake chocolate layer dip? Check again.
Bourbon uses a chocolate brand known as Royce Nama chocolate, made from "a blend of the choicest milk chocolate and fresh cream to make it rich and smooth."
Each slice is also made with 1.3 percent alcohol, which won't make for boozy chocolate desserts, but it's nice to know that there are even more reasons to completely covet this new product.
You can buy 60 slices for 3,240 yen ($26.66 USD).

$120,000 EPA Grant Will Help Puerto Rico Community Group to Reduce Air Pollution
Release Date: 09/16/2014
Contact Information: Elias Rodriguez, (212) 637-3664, firstname.lastname@example.com or Brenda Reyes, (787) 977-5869, email@example.com or DISUR at (787) 284-8424
- (New York, N.Y.) The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has awarded $120,000 to Desarrollo Integral del Sur Inc. to help them identify sources of air pollution in the Tallaboa-Encarnacion, Puerto Rico community. The community is located in an industrial area of Puerto Rico, where there are a number of petrochemical businesses. The project is called "Pulmones Saludables, Ahora!" (Healthy Lungs, Now!).
"This grant will allow this community organization to gather information about air quality so they can better understand and address air pollution issues in this community," said Judith A. Enck, EPA Regional Administrator. "By tacking air pollution, this grant will allow community members to work together to improve public health in Puerto Rico, which has a very high asthma rate."
Asthma rates in the Tallaboa-Encarnacion community are high. Desarrollo Integral del Sur, a nonprofit community organization, will use the grant money to identify air pollution from the local sources that may be linked to the community's health concerns. This project will expand upon a previous EPA-funded project, which established an inventory of structures and lands in the petrochemical corridor between Penuelas and Guayanilla that are suspected of being contaminated with hazardous substances or petroleum. The EPA grant will be used to conduct an environmental study to determine the types of air pollutants coming from the local sources. This information will help inform ongoing plans for re-development taking place on former industrial properties in the area. The group will also work with the public to develop an asthma action plan to reduce residential exposure to pollutants.
As part of the project, Desarrollo Integral del Sur will take air samples and research existing databases of air quality information. A major component of the project will be to involve members of the community, and the group plans multiple public meetings and the use of social media and traditional media to keep the public informed of the research process, the findings and the development of the action plan.
Environmental justice means the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race or income, in the environmental decision-making process. Since 2003, EPA Environmental Justice Collaborative Problem-Solving grants have supported over 40 projects that address local environmental and public health issues within an affected community, and provide communities with information to help them develop proactive, strategic, and visionary approaches to tackle environmental harms and risks. The grants further EPA's commitment to expand the conversation on environmentalism and advance environmental justice in communities across the nation.

- Stradbally vs Clashmore
Stradbally – Clashmore Match Prediction | 14-09-2019 15:00
The Nire challenge reignited and they finished the hour as they started it while Clashmore didnt score in the last 21 minutes of play. Nire were guilty of some bad wides during this period but the score they needed to revitalise their challenge eventually came from a Shane Ryan free in the 53rd minute and realistically, there was just now one kick of the size 5 between the teams .
Credit the champions, they tried to respond but the Clashmore defence now had the measure of their markers and the last score of the half fell to Man of the Match Brian O Halloran in the first minute of added time to send his team in leading by 2-5 to 0-9. Rather than a Nire response, it was the winners who drove on and three minutes later the green flag was disturbed again when Tadhg De Burca spotted Cillian O Keeffe loose in front of goal, resulting in Clashmore hitting the front for the first time.

2000 saw their second Junior Hurling title, when Fenor were beaten by 1-8 to 0-5 in the final at Walsh Park. In the late 1990s, the team was once again in the Intermediate Grade. In 2001, the football team was relegated to Intermediate again, but in 2002 they were promoted to Senior again after victories over Brickey Rangers, Sliabh gCua, Brickey Rangers again, Rinn gCuanach after a replay, and Newtown, who were beaten by 2-8 to 0-9 in the County Final at Kill. They won the 1999 Championship by beating Butlerstown in the Fraher Field.
They didnt have the firepower to inflict heavily and once Kilrossanty gained a strong foothold in the second half they pushed on unopposed to take the win. Brickey Rangers put it up to Kilrossanty throughout the first half and indeed wasted two or three opportunities to really punish the Comeragh men when the Black and Amber had gone up. However, their attack was very blunt on the night and this was the real losing of the match for the Brickey Rangers.
Hopefully, tonights game has set the tone for what is to come. That , combined with not taking one of their four goal chances, was a costly factor in the losing of the game. All in all, it was a great start to the championship. They played with great heart. 10.The wide county was respectable for both teams. Their defending in the second half was top quality as they shut down a threatening forward line containing Conor Gleeson, Shane Ryan and Darren Guiry. Up front for them Brian OHalloran and Paul OConnor were menacing with punishing speed and acceleration and close ball control. However, Nire experienced two scoring droughts. One of 12 minutes (the 19th until the 31st) and then another of 22 minutes (the 31st until the 53rd). Clashmore/Kinsalebeg six. However, Clashmore/Kinsalebeg were full value for their win. Nire had a total ofeight wides.
Leinster chief rules out radical change to hurling championship
Clashmore/Kinsalebeg managed to hold on however showing great nerve and strength in defence to keep the champions at bay. The finish was edge of the seat. Cutting in from an angle he opted to insure the win and went to handpass the ball over the bar. Four minutes of added time was called for. 9. Paul OConnor was unleashed with a ball into him in the corner and with him and his marker the onlyoutfieldplayers at that end of the pitch he was away in for goal in a one-on-one situation. However, dramatically, it came back off the post and Nire galloped down the field to have another crack at the opposition defence.
Over the years Clashmore/Kinsalebeg ladies has consistently produced players of a high calibre, many underage girls have gone on to represent Waterford County and 9 girls have worn the county jersey in the adult grade namely, Mary ORourke, Deirdre ORourke, Clona OKeeffe, Edel Wilson, Aileen Barron, Trish Fitzgerald, Ashling O Donnell, Margaret Foley and Jess Fitzgerald. The big focus is on the underage teams at present to have strong foundations and sowing the seeds for success in the not too distant future. For a small rural community, this is an amazing achievement.
Questions were being asked of Clashmores intentions and they answered in style, coming to grips with the pace of the game and Edmond O Halloran heralded their comeback with a fine score from play before Cillian O Keeffe provided for a rasper of a goal by Jason Seward into the roof of the town end goal in the 21st minute, 0-9 to 1-4.
Both players needed assistance. de Brca was able to play on. You could hear the thump as the two collided chasing a loose ball. 4. Shane Walsh retired from the game though injury after a thundering collision with Tadhg de Brca on 36 minutes. Bizarrely, once play resumed Nire played for 14 men while they waited five minutes to make a substitution, Alan Lawlor.

The Effects Of HGH On Memory And Focus
Every living person should anticipate aging as it is an inevitable process in life. There will come a time when each one of us will feel older than the years gone by. Many are the people who wonder why this happens. As aging sets in, our bodies experience a million and one changes that are catabolic in nature. One anabolic process does not change though – growth. HGH helps to keep us keep young by revitalizing our bodies. Human growth hormone is charged solely with the purpose of repairing tissues, cells and organs within the body.
With time, brain cells, also known as neurons start losing their chemical potency and outer covering. The mass of the neurons is therefore depleted in old age and with it goes memory and focus. The process is not sudden but gradual. However researchers and scientists have a conviction that it is possible to stall the process of aging even if for a while by the use of HGH supplements and other natural therapies. Research by hghtruth.org has it that by increasing the levels of HGH in the body, you can build sharper memory and focus while at the same time helping you feel younger and fitter.
Regular Exercise is good for sharper memory
Immediately you clock 21, the levels of HGH in your system takes to a plateau shape before finally taking a dip.
