Arkansas' row crops are still a little behind the five-year average for this time of year, but are largely in good to excellent condition, according to the weekly update from the National Agricultural Statistics Service.
In Lonoke County, "We are just bouncing along with no major bumps at this point," said Keith Perkins, county extension agent, who advised farmers to, "keep scouting rice and soybean fields for disease and insects."
• Corn — 97 percent has reached dough stage compared to the 99 percent five-year average and last year's 100 percent. Five percent of the crop has been harvested, compared with 21 percent of the five-year average. Sixty-one percent of the crop is rated in good or excellent condition.
• Cotton — 100 percent of the plants have set bolls, in line with last year and the five-year average. Four percent are opening bolls, well behind last year's 28 percent and the 13 percent five-year average. Sixty percent of the crop is in good or excellent condition.
• Rice is 80 percent headed, off last year's 98 percent page and the 84 percent five-year average. Six percent is ripe, compared with 47 percent last year and 22 percent over the five-year average. Sixty-three percent is in good or excellent condition.
• Sorghum is 100 percent headed, in line with last year and the five-year average. Twelve percent of the crop is mature, compared to 83 percent last year and the 46 percent five-year average. Sixty-four percent is in good or excellent condition.
• Soybeans — 79 percent are setting pods, compared to 96 percent last year and the 85 percent five-year average. Fifty-four percent of the crop is rated good or excellent.
However, farmers in Randolph County are taking a wait-and-see approach to crops that were submerged last week by flooding.
Mike Andrews, Randolph County extension staff chair for the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture, revisited some of the flooded fields on Tuesday and Wednesday.
"The rivers are back in their banks and most of the water off the fields but to really know how much damage, we will have to wait til harvest," Andrews said. "I don't even want to speculate. I hope things turn around and things are not as bad in those fields as it looks right now."
In Chicot County, "we are in full harvest of corn," said Gus Wilson, county extension staff chair for the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture. "Irrigated yields have been good — not as good as last year's, but better than we were expecting due to the tough, wet spring we've had."
Wilson said rice and cotton are looking good, but really good in soybeans "I think we will have a good to great yield on beans."

Senior housing project in Amherst moves forward
The first of two buildings in the $26.1 million Fox Creek Estates senior citizens apartment complex is expected to be ready for occupancy by the beginning of next year, the developer said Friday.
The project, which has been in the works since late 2010 but has since faced delays, an ownership change and rising costs, has been redesigned to include eight additional apartments and a revamped design for some of the 208 units that are planned for the complex at 9500 Transit Road in Amherst.
"The good thing is that the project is finally going to occur," said Sean Hopkins, the attorney for developer Anthony J. Cutaia and his Fox Creek Estates II LLC. Cutaia and his ownership group have bought out foreign investors who were part of the original development group, Waldex Holdings LLC, Hopkins said.
Because the project has taken longer than expected to begin, the costs to build the pair of three-story independent-living apartment buildings has jumped by $5.7 million, or about 28 percent, from the original cost forecast. Part of that is because of higher building material expenses and the need for additional sewer work, as well as the decision to add eight additional units and a swimming pool to the original plan.
The Amherst IDA, which approved an estimated $3 million in property, sales and mortgage tax breaks for the project in 2010, approved the ownership change Friday – a necessary legal step that prompted Amherst Supervisor Barry Weinstein to question the overall need for granting tax incentives to senior housing projects.
Weinstein cited a recent report from the University at Buffalo that found that only 1 percent of senior citizens in Erie County leave the region because of a lack of housing options. "I'm questioning why we're subsidizing it further," said Weinstein, who cast the lone vote against the otherwise routine approval of an ownership change.
Edward Stachura, another IDA board member, noted that the tax breaks for the project were approved 2½ years ago, and that changes in the project's developer would not alter the scope of the tax incentives available for the project, unless the property's assessed value increased.

Resources for Storytelling
Q. I'd like to plan some library instruction units for the younger classes in my school and use storytelling techniques more. How can I get started?
A. What a timely question! Most of the current issue of Knowledge Quest, the member journal for our division, the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) is on the power of storytelling, particularly as it helps children shape their experience in relation to the world around them. There are tips on how to do storytelling and numerous bibliographies of resources.
Interestingly, storytelling is a component of knowledge management, as it is a means by which implicit knowledge is transferred for employee to employee in an organization.
Also, indigenous cultures have relied on storytelling to transmit community knowledge, and we are now using the same for developing oral history, such as [ALA Past President Loriene Roy's initiative, Capturing our Stories: A National Oral History Program of Retired/Retiring Librarians. For good measure, the same issue (Vol. 36, no. 5, May/June 2008) of Knowledge Quest, noted above, includes resources for world folktales.

Are We Really Going To Nuke Iran?
Decoding our options.
What are we to make of Seymour Hersh's bombshell, in this week's New Yorker, that not only is President George W. Bush keen to attack Iran's nuclear facilities but that several higher-ups in the White House and the Pentagon would like to do so with nuclear weapons?
According to Hersh, an "option plan," presented this past winter by the Pentagon to the White House, calls for the use of B61-11 nuclear bunker-busters against Iran's underground sites, especially the Natanz facility, which houses the centrifuges needed to enrich uranium and which is reported to be dug 75 feet beneath the earth's surface. (If it really is that deep, and if Bush wanted to destroy it and not just disable its operations briefly, a non-nuclear bomb wouldn't be powerful enough.)
Hersh also reports that the Joint Chiefs of Staff tried to remove the nuclear option from "the evolving war plan for Iran," but the White House insisted on leaving it in. The chiefs will soon give Bush "a formal recommendation stating that they are strongly opposed to considering the nuclear option for Iran." Some officers are thinking about resigning if he rejects their views.
Is this for real? Is President Bush or anyone else in a position of power truly, seriously thinking about dropping nuclear bombs on a country that poses no direct threat to the United States, possesses no nuclear weapons of its own, and isn't likely to for at least a few years? Pre-emptive war—attacking a country to keep it from attacking us or an ally—is sometimes justifiable. Preventive war—attacking a country to keep it from developing a capability to attack an ally sometime in the future—almost never is. And preventive war waged with nuclear weapons is (not to put too fine a spin on it) crazy.
The only time the United States ever used nuclear weapons, in 1945, was at the end of a world war that had been raging for years. And at the time, the bombing was seen as an alternative to an invasion of the Japanese mainland that might have killed hundreds of thousands of American soldiers. In the 60 years since, the world has declared and observed a clear threshold between the use and nonuse of nuclear weapons. To violate that threshold—for a purpose that falls far short of pre-empting an imminent threat or protecting our national survival—would not only be immoral; it would incite outrage across the Middle East and the Muslim world; it would inspire vast recruitment drives by anti-American terrorists (and any resulting sequels to 9/11 would be seen, even by our friends, as just deserts); and it would legitimize nuclear weapons as everyday tools of warfare and spur many nations into building their own arsenals, if just to anticipate and match their neighbors' impending arsenals.
In short, it would be a disaster of head-spinning proportions.
So, again, is this for real? Are Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney really thinking about nuking Iran? If they're not, and assuming that Hersh's sources are good (as they usually are), what are these nuclear options, debates, and war plans all about? Here are a few possibilities:
The Madman Theory. In his first few years as president, Richard Nixon tried to force North Vietnam's leaders to the peace table by persuading them that he was a madman who would do anything to win the war. His first step, in October 1969, was to ratchet up the alert levels of U.S. strategic nuclear forces as a way of jarring the Soviet Union into pressuring the North Vietnamese to back down. A few years later, he stepped up the bombing of the North and put out the word that he might use nukes. In neither case did this ploy have any effect whatsoever. Nor is there much reason to believe it would make the Iranians shake in their boots. A Foreign Ministry spokesman in Tehran today returned the volley by dismissing the report as part of a "psychological war" campaign. The danger of this rhetorical escalation (if that's all it is) is that it can spin out of control. If Washington and Tehran are playing a game of global chicken (as I speculated last week), upping the stakes with nukes is like loading the front bumper with a barrel of dynamite and a crying baby.
The Madman Theory, Variation B. If Iran is immune to such pressures, our European allies might not be. Many of them already regard Bush as a religious zealot and Cheney as a warmonger. If they believe that the White House might really resolve the dispute with Iran by dropping nuclear bombs, they might suddenly start pushing for sanctions—a move they've stopped short of, mainly to protect their own trade relations with Tehran—as a comparatively moderate way of pressuring Iran to stop enriching uranium. Whether or not this is Bush's intent, there's evidence in Hersh's piece that the escalation might have the same effect. The Europeans, Hersh writes, are "rattled" by "their growing perception that Bush and Cheney believe a bombing campaign will be needed." He quotes one European diplomat as saying, "We need to find ways to impose sufficient costs to bring the [Iranian] regime to its senses. … I think if there is unity in opposition and the price imposed"—in sanctions—"is sufficient, [the Iranians] may back down."
Bureaucratic Politics. Nowhere does Hersh contend that Bush has decided to use nuclear weapons. He writes that the idea was in "one of the military's initial option plans" (not that it's part of some final plan), and that the White House won't take the option off the table (not that they've put it on the table). A debate is heating up, but it hasn't been settled. It is a long-standing practice for Washington insiders to use press leaks as a means of publicizing debates and rallying support for their positions. Hersh's main sources for this story—"current and former American military and intelligence officials"—are all opposed to the nuclear option. One source, "a Pentagon adviser on the war on terror," is quoted as saying that high-level support for using nukes is "a juggernaut that has to be stopped." The same source also says that "if senior Pentagon officers express their opposition to the use of offensive nuclear weapons, then it will never happen." The Madman Theory presupposes that at least some of Hersh's sources are using him to disperse disinformation. The Bureaucratic Politics Theory posits that they're using him to promote one faction within the government. The two theories are not mutually exclusive; a mix of both might be operative.
The Three-Options Theory. Another possibility is that Bush is going to launch some sort of raid on Iran, and if people think he might drop nuclear bombs, they'll be relieved—they'll consider it a relatively moderate gesture—if he confines the attack to conventional bombs. It's a variation on the game that national-security advisers sometimes use in laying out options to their bosses. Option 1: Declare all-out war. Option 2: Surrender. Option 3 is the course of action that the adviser wants to pursue. Hersh's story might be serving the same purpose. Option 1: Nuke 'em. Option 2: Shut your eyes and do nothing, like the Europeans would prefer. Option 3: Attack Iran's facilities, but with 2,000-pound smart bombs, not 5-kiloton nuclear bombs.
Or … Or maybe there's no gamesmanship going on here, maybe Hersh is simply reporting on a nuclear war plan that President Bush is really, seriously considering, a "juggernaut" that might not be stopped. If it's as straightforward as that, we're in deeper trouble than most of us have imagined.

Let the notes for the nation ring out true
By Lynda Hollenbeck
Last week, in advance of the big game, I noted that I'm not a fan of the Super Bowl. I'm in that minuscule minority of folks who had to check the newspaper to see who was playing. I didn't have a preference on the winner, so I was just as happy with the Seahawks winning as I would have been if the honor had gone to the Broncos.
That being said, I do have a verbal bouquet to pass out to the people who made the decision to ask a trained singer to do the national anthem this year.
"The Star-Spangled Banner" is not an easy piece to sing. It jumps an octave and a half and, for many, many singers, that's just a couple of jumps too many.
This year, though, it was done to perfection by Metropolitan Opera star Renee Fleming, who is gorgeous and sings like an angel.
A world-renowned lyric soprano, she has had all the classical training and experience needed to perform the anthem or anything else she might want to sing. She's appeared on the world's most prestigious stages — the Met and Carnegie Hall in New York, La Scala in Milan, Buckingham Palace in London, Opera Bastille in Paris, Berlin Philharmonic in London and numerous others.
During Sunday's Super Bowl broadcast, she gave a flawless rendition of Francis Scott Key's piece. Mainly, she sang it pretty much the way it was written — with just an added flourish at the end — which is a novel approach in these times in which so many others have felt the need to rearrange the piece that absolutely needs no modification.
In talking about performing the piece, Fleming acknowledged that it is difficult and, in that particular setting, outdoors before the whole world, the pressure is practically beyond measure.
The national anthem can trip up even the best of singers, as my late friend and favorite singer, Robert Goulet, once proved. He noted that the late Nat King Cole had advised him that "if you do nothing else in your life, don't ever sing the national anthem at a ball game."
There was good reason for those words of wisdom.
Goulet gave perfect renditions of the piece many times during his career, but it included an unfortunate faux pas before the heavyweight title fight between Muhammad Ali (known then as Cassius Clay) and Sonny Liston.
With a slip of the lip, he didn't sing "the dawn's early light." What came out instead was "the dawn's early night," which makes no sense, but once done, it's done. And he did it.
I would have loved it anyway.
One thing Ms. Fleming did that was really smart: She wisely used recorded accompaniment, the next best thing to a live instrumental group. An increasingly common error for national anthem singers is to do it a cappella. Few — make that VERY few — can stay on pitch for the duration of the song. This is usually so apparent that even non-musicians notice it. To someone with perfect pitch (from a hearing standpoint as I am so cursed), it's torture.
When there's no way to get a full orchestra to accompany the anthem, one can get by with a trumpeter or two to give it the brass sound it needs. I've done that before when there was no keyboard around, but I NEVER would dare try it unaccompanied. It's just not smart.
Ms. Fleming was backed, via recording, by the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra and a chorus of singers from four branches of the armed forces. One can't get much better than that.
Hearing Ms. Fleming sing the anthem — or anything I've ever heard her do — is a totally pleasurable experience.
Her showing at the Super Bowl was in marked contrast to other performances in which singers have butchered the piece from beginning to end.
It's just not a song for the faint of heart. It takes sustained breathing, good diction and, if done correctly, a desire to make everyone proud to be an American.
On Sunday, Renee Fleming made me proud.

REAL ESTATE- ON THE BLOCK-Unpack your Hammock: Key West in Charlottesville
Address: 200 George Rogers Rd.
Neighborhood: Key West in Albemarle
Asking: $499,000
Assessment: $460,700
Year Built: 1989
Size: 2,838 fin Sq. ft. / 529 unfin. Sq. ft.
Land: 4.9 acres
Agent: Anita Dunbar, Montague, Miller & Co., (434) 951-7135
Curb Appeal: 8 out of 10
Tucked in off of Route 20 near Pantops, Charlottesville's Key West has little in common with the Floridian island that shares its name. More evocative of tennis and woodland ponds than ocean breezes and lime pie, Cville's Key West is named for Martin Key, the European who originally settled the area.
Much has changed since King George II granted the land to Mr. Key. The current subdivision was developed in the 1960s by Bernard Schwab of Alcova Associates, Inc. and has since swelled to include approximately 205 families grouped around the Key West Club. With community fees of just $25/year and optional club membership starting at $180 for singles, Key West may be the kindler, gentler Farmington (without golf, alas).
Within this suburban haven is 200 George Rogers Road, a modern farmhouse-style residence on nearly five acres. Yup, five acres!
With woods, a stream, a fenced-in dog run, five bedrooms and a two-car garage, this house was built with family in mind.
The house is fronted by a wraparound porch complete with swing, although the latter would be better facing out towards the woods, instead of hanging perpendicular to the front door. A platform deck out back leads into a large eat-in kitchen that has dark wooden cupboards, shiny stainless steel appliances, and floor-to-ceiling bay windows.
Despite being built in 1989, this house seems to have avoided the deadly 80s vibe. In fact, the only design equivalent of slouch socks are the formica countertops in the kitchen and on the wet bar. But even these are a functional, unobtrusive cream color that doesn't scream: renovate me!
Clearly, by 1989, builders were alerted to the advantages of the master bedroom; and this one— 17'8" x 19'4"— is bigger than some studio apartments. The master bedroom comfortably situates a coffee table and couch against the bay windows in addition to the heavy bedroom furniture. Then there's the walk-in closet and adjacent master bath, complete with Jacuzzi tub and his-n-hers sinks. The disadvantage to the master bedroom is that it's clustered on the top floor with the other four bedrooms, which subtract some privacy.
The other bedrooms, while considerably smaller, are comfortable, with wooded views and soft carpeting. The rest of the house is floored in hardwood oak (for the foyer, staircase, and the kitchen) and in sisal carpeting for the downstairs living spaces (the office, dining room and den). The neutral basket weave of sisal is an unexpected touch. Modern and low-maintenance, it's perfect for the kids and dogs.
With all this space, the property does have one subdivision right. But if it were mine, I'd be tempted to leave the property just as it is. Even with five acres, three neighboring houses are visible through the now-leafless trees. Adding a fourth? No thanks. If I can't have an ocean view, at least let me sip my mojito in peace.
There's an open house from 2-pm on Sunday, January 18.

Dual Vocational Education and Training (VET)
The recipe for success of VET is simple yet particularly effective at the same time: industry and the job market are interlocked. The training, currently for around 360 jobs, is held both within a company and in a vocational school – theory and practice are thus closely tied with the companies and the vocational schools taking on trainees.
Every year, around 600,000 participants in the scheme throughout Germany take the examinations. This means that the same standards apply to all examination certificates, ensuring mobility of qualified personnel.

You will not believe this transformation! When you have a dad with a fabulous collection of classic cars and a son with a passion for film making, you've got the beginnings of one amazing bar mitzvah! Father and son put their heads together and came up with a movie premiere-themed bar mitzvah that oozed with real-deal Hollywood glamour.
Event planner Melisa from The Event of a Lifetime was called in to transform the clients' garage and basement into their vision of a Hollywood event. She had plenty to work with – including a 5 million dollar vintage classic car. Even the most utilitarian space can be converted to a dazzling affair in the hands of the right event designer.
Before: This garage was, well… just a garage
After: Trendy VIP Bar Mitzvah Lounge
Now this garage is a lounge the likes of a sophisticated night spot. The plain walls are hidden behind a soft white pipe and drape with cool, blue-green uplighting. Satin lounges are accented with plush pillows. The pillows are customized with the bar mitvah's initials and event date. Blue, white and silver is the perfect color palette for this VIP lounge.
The basement got a similar treatment. Before it was a typical room.
After: Bar MItzvah NightclubAfterwards, their basement turned into a club for the after party, with a gleaming dance floor, dazzling white lounges, and large flat screens.
Mitzvah Entrance
The kids got off the bus at the foot of their long driveway and made their way up the 250 foot red carpet. Along the way, paparazzi snapped their pictures and yelled out to them "Who are you wearing?", "Over here!", "Angie – where's Brad?"… When they reached the top of the driveway, there were bouncers that made sure their names were on the VIP list.
The Dad's classic car was the inspiration for much of the decor. Who wouldn't want to show off a beauty like this?
The beautiful vintage car was the perfect inspiration for the bar mitzvah cake.
The classic car also inspired these Andy Warhol-like backdrops which featured the bar mitzvah boy's favorite car with his initials and bar mitzvah date as the license plate. Guests had their pictures in front of these backdrops, and then by millions of dollars worth of cars. Movie Theme Sign-In BoardThe sign in board featured the guest of honor posing in the car. When do you think Dad will let him actually drive it?
The party had lots of Hollywood props and movie themed activities, such as this red carpet studio with a green screen. Guests also got to enjoy a popcorn candy bar!
Thanks to Melisa for sharing this incredible bar mitzvah transformation!

DENVER – Thousands of emails released by the University of Colorado shed new light into the man suspected of killing 12 and wounding 58 during a midnight movie showing and the university's response to the July 22 massacre.
Shock, disgust and fear spread across the campus of the Colorado university -- the man who shot up a midnight movie was identified as James Holmes, and faculty members suspected they knew him.
As professors and others questioned what to do and feared for their safety, some shared the tidbits they knew about Holmes via email. He briefly had a girlfriend, who was in India at the time of the attack. He had a few friends, though none in the neuroscience program he'd just left.
Many of the emails are partially or completely blacked out, the university says to avoid violating privacy laws. The result is minimal information on Holmes' struggles at the school or whether the institution recognized the danger he may have represented.
Holmes' name began to circulate in news reports a few hours after the early-morning shooting and nearly seven hours after the massacre, a statewide campus police network email asked all universities to "check their records to see if they have a James Holmes."
FOX31 Denver reports that Angie Ribera, director of the University of Colorado's neuroscience suspected Holmes may have been a student on campus, writing, "Horrible news. There are several students with the name James Holmes. This one is 24 and lives in north Aurora and makes me wonder if this is the one whom we know."
"Do you think we should meet with students in his class?" she asked colleagues. "If they had been close to him, this would definitely be something that I think we should do. But as they were not, I do not know."
An hour later, officials confirmed James Holmes was the former graduate student, and Ribera grew more alarmed. At the time, police were trying to remove booby-traps he allegedly left at his nearby apartment before leaving for the midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises."
Ribera sent an email to another senior faculty member noting that Holmes was in custody. "However, he was friendly with 1-2 students in another program and I am worried about the safety of all (neuroscience) students and Faculty as well as the safety of all (medical) students."
At 8:02 a.m., the administrator of the neuroscience program broke the news to students there and urged them not to post anything to Facebook or Twitter. Campus officials quickly sought to control the flow of information. As reporters began to bombard Holmes' few acquaintance and professors with inquiries, administrators urged faculty and students to refer all media calls to a spokeswoman.
Faculty quickly began emailing with each other and friends about the news. Larry Hunter, who is listed as director of the Center for Computational Bioscience, was asked about the shooting by a friend. "Yeah, he was a grad student here, and, it turns out, had a brief romantic relationship with one of the grad students in my program last fall," Hunter wrote. "She, fortunately, it turns out is in India right now."
"She knows," Hunter added, "and is pretty freaked out."
Hunter said Wednesday he would not comment.
Holmes allegedly began stockpiling firearms and ammunition while taking classes in the spring. In June, prosecutors say, he made threats to a professor, and he filed withdrawal papers June 10 after failing a year-end exam. The next day he saw his school psychiatrist, who tried to report him to a campus security committee, according to Holmes' lawyers.
KMGH in Denver Wednesday night reported that that psychiatrist, Dr. Lynne Fenton, reached out to campus police partly because Holmes talked about killing "a lot of people" but that she opted not to place him under a psychiatric hold because he was withdrawing from the school. A spokeswoman said she could not comment on the report.
Four days after the attack, campus police chief Doug Abraham said at a news conference that campus police had no information on Holmes. The school has since declined to answer detailed questions about Holmes' behavior, citing a gag order that remains in effect and federal privacy laws that limit the amount of medical and academic information it can disclose.
Those laws also limited the number of documents released Wednesday. At the request of defense attorneys, about 100 emails between Holmes and his family and friends were withheld because they are not covered under Colorado's Open Records Act.
The remaining documents were released only after a lengthy court battle.
In correspondence from Aug. 7, an assistant professor told colleagues that he interviewed Holmes for about 30 minutes during a recruitment visit in February 2011, then noted that his evaluation of Holmes was entered into an internal university system and was still available for examination. In later correspondence, the campus director of academic support services suggested that the university was looking to get rid of that evaluation from the system.
Jim Finster, the campus director of academic support services, recalled that attorney Annalissa Philbin had "instructed me to purge those data."
"Admittedly, I have not completed that task yet, but was planning on doing it very shortly," Finster wrote in an email to Philbin. "Should I change those plans?"
It's unclear if Philbin responded, but the university's director of media relations forwarded the exchange to another attorney with a blunt message: "What??"
On Wednesday, university officials provided a later email, from Aug. 8, in which Philbin said no information should be purged at that time.
In the days after the shooting, the Arapahoe County District Attorney's office asked Judge William B. Sylvester to bar the university from releasing records requested by numerous media organizations. Prosecutors argued that the information could jeopardize Holmes' right to a fair trial. Sylvester agreed, but amended his order last month to allow the release after media organizations objected in court.
Holmes is charged with multiple first-degree murder and attempted murder counts. He has not entered a plea and won't do so until after a weeklong preliminary hearing in which prosecutors will present evidence supporting the charges. That hearing is scheduled to begin Jan. 7. A motions hearing in the case is set for Monday.
Holmes' attorneys have said he suffers from a mental illness.

Film Review: To Be Heard
Three Bronx teenagers take on poverty, crime, and family stress with the help of good teachers.
Martinez, Legiardi-Laura, Shaffer, Sultan, 2010 , 87 minutes.
The Power Writers Program does more than encourage teenagers in the Bronx to write—it empowers them through education and self-expression. The film follows three friends as they approach adulthood, challenged by poverty, crime, and family stress. Poetry gives them strength—and good teachers (sometimes) make a difference.

Re: non vacation locationlrbaldwin Jun 4, 2012 3:51 PM (in response to centralnc)
Hi neighbor!
Have you considered how much time and effort it will take to make the place ready for renters? You wouldn't want to leave out your best kitchen knives or your china. You'd have to clean your closets out, put away all your personal toiletries. I can't imagine "vacating" my primary residence and prepping it for renters. Heck, we don't like to rent our VR in the off season because there just isn't enough money in it to go to all the trouble of "moving out" after we've spent weeks and weeks there in the winter.
Re: non vacation locationcentralnc Jun 5, 2012 8:03 AM (in response to lrbaldwin)
Thank you so much for taking the time to offer your suggestions!!
Re: non vacation locationcarol Jun 4, 2012 4:02 PM (in response to centralnc)
Linda hit the nail on the head!! Unless you live a Spartan life, it really won't work to rent out your primary residence occasionally.
Also, in a non -vacation destination area, the local ordinances may treat your vacation rental in the same way they treat long term rentals -- you need to do your homework to figure out if it's legal and possible to rent your home out without major hassles. Does your upscale neighborhood have covenants restricting rentals?
Check out Homeaway and VRBO to see if there are any other homes on the rental market in your area. If so, what do their availability calendars say and does it look like you could compete with them?
Re: non vacation locationanja Jun 4, 2012 11:34 PM (in response to carol)
I am going to make the same point as Carol....you need to research your local "market area" to see what people who live and rent there are doing. Because, we can not generalize to give you a better answer with knowing nothing more than what you've offered as information. In any event, research will give you all the answers you need.
Search online on the "rental" sites. As Carol suggested, start with HomeAway and VRBO. Search on your location...and then read all the advertisements to know what they feature in terms of your location, activities nearby, other nearby towns, their house rental rates, etc... to see what/how they are promoting visitation to your area....and do check their availability calendars...and read the "travelers' reviews' on their advertisinig pages. Also, check TripAdvisor.com...for your area...but also look at the TripAdvisor "forums"...there could be one for your area...and that's where you'll find locals answering questions {like here} from travelers to your area. You haven't mentioned where in NC, so I can't say if there is a TA forum for it. You find "forums" on the TA homepage {look at the left-hand side of the page...towards the top.}
I also agree with Irbaldwin/Linda. First, rental guests generally expect a home to be void of the *personal* contents of the owners - in the bedroom closets, bathrooms and inside the refrigerator and food storage closets....and everything spotless...as if no one has been living there before they arrived! You can offer them a "stocked pantry"...but as long as it's fresh and doesn't look as if you're offering yous or anyone else's leftovers.
So, you'd have to clear it out, completely, before someone "checks in". Do a deep clean each time before a guest arrives to check in...if guests see grime anywhere they usually remember it, e.g, when they write a review...and that will affect your future bookings. And, you would really have to be careful not to leave anything in the home that you will be sorry about if/when it gets damaged {guests break...stain...completely ruin things}....or it goes "missing" {that's been known to happen}. So, don't leave your really nice wine glasses...dinnerware....silverware...a silk/persion carpet....your best towels...valuable books, art, .jewelry....etc., which means, again, you'd need to do "inventory switches" each time -- have a stock of "guest inventory".
What to do with your stuff? If you have a spare room that you can *lock*...you could always move all your personal and cherished things into it. This moving "in and out" gets "old" and tiresome after a few times...which is why a rental needs to be stocked and equipped with items that are not "really your personal" ones.
Re: non vacation locationcentralnc Jun 5, 2012 7:55 AM (in response to anja)
Great ideas - thank you so much for your thoughtful response!!
Re: non vacation locationcentralnc Jun 5, 2012 8:00 AM (in response to carol)
Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to give me some input!
Re: non vacation locationgabriel Jun 9, 2012 6:28 PM (in response to centralnc)
Hi Wendy:
My suggestion: It all depends!
- Depends on what you plan to do with the house in the next few years, are you going to use it as a vacation place for you, renters, and family members therefore you will clean everything and leave only standard items?
- Depends on whether you want to keep grandma's china, your daughter's wedding pictures on the wall and your husband high school marching band trophies in the living room? Or you have a closet you can lock them in?
- Depends if you only want to move out on peak golf weeks because you can make $10,000 per week and move back in the following week, and the fee will pay for professional movers to take things out and put them back in after the vacation renters leave.
- Depends if you decide to switch to full vacation mode, where even you will feel like a guest in your home, with no visible signs of previous life, no pictures of kids, and buy new spices and ketchup everytime you go there, just like a vacation renter.
- Depends on the rate you are able to charge and if it pays for all the hassle.
- Depends on local zoning and regulations that allow the short term rentals.
- Depends on your lifestyle, do you have an empty nest and the five bedrooms is too much for you and your husband? You have extra time and would like to take on this part time job (that will be full time from time to time).
I cannot answer your question, but I hope I left you with enough questions that you and your husband have to discuss before you make your decision.
We converted our vacation beach home into rental because we are no longer using it every weekend but every three months, so it took us a month to clean it up and convert it to a neutral environment.
Re: non vacation locationcentralnc Jun 11, 2012 9:18 AM (in response to gabriel)
Thanks so much for your thoughtful response! I have decided to try it and see how it goes. I don't have a lot of "stuff", and I'm going to create a locked area in the house for anything of value. I figure I only need to rent it 6 times a year to reach my minimum financial goal.
Re: non vacation locationgabriel Jun 11, 2012 10:07 AM (in response to centralnc)
Make sure your closet where you lock personal things has a deadbolt. A simple door lock won't do it, you may have some guests who can open them with a credit card or a screwdriver and you will never know if anything has been taken.
A broken deadbolt is very obvious.
Best of luck,
Re: non vacation locationstjvilla Jun 11, 2012 2:33 PM (in response to gabriel)
Agree with Gabriel - there was a thread a while ago and everyone agreed the worst lock for an owner's closet or off-limits area was a padlock as it just seemed to entice renters to know what was inside! Deadbolts are cheap and you will have a dedicated key for it.
Re: non vacation locationmanouche Jun 13, 2012 12:53 PM (in response to stjvilla)
Just to re-inforce choosing a deadlock over padlocks - most insurance companies will not accept padlocks as reliable, and won't insure or cover any loss if you use them. It's definitely worth the expense to call a locksmith.
Re: non vacation locationanja Jun 11, 2012 5:04 PM (in response to centralnc)
Hi, again, centralnc,
It's good to learn that you are going to "give it a go". There is an abundance of good information in other threads on this Community Forum. One in particular to visit and read is on the topic of "screening" {just type in that word at the top of this page in the field for "Search For Answers". All previous discussions will appear. When we all start out renting our homes, we have all discovered along the way how to set our personal/business criteria for which people "get the keys"...and who we "run the other way from". Screening is key! Generally, and I do mean the overwhelming majority of my guests over the course of years, have been super people...I could not have asked for better. I really enjoy helping make people's dream vacations become their reality. I hope you have fun with it, too. Wishing you wonderful guest experiences Stick with this Community Forum. I think this is a "class act" with all the owners here who are "top of the line" with all their various owner/rental business experiences.

Rapper Nicki Minaj is pleased she was snubbed as a judge on The X Factor last year (11), because she "wasn't completely sold" on the format of the show.
The Super Bass hitmaker was among the names tipped to appear as a mentor on Simon Cowell's hit series when it launched, but she was not part of the line-up when it was announced. British singer Cheryl Cole was unveiled as one of the judges but was subsequently replaced by Nicole Scherzinger during the auditions stage of the contest.
Minaj admits that although she was "honored" to have been considered, she's convinced the timing was all wrong as she was still establishing herself as a musician.
She tells U.K. talk show host Alan Carr, "We were in talks up until the last minute. He went with Nicole. It just wasn't right, I wasn't completely sold on it. I didn't think the show really knew my work at the time either.
"I love Simon, I have been such a fan of Simon for such a long time and just to have him interested, I was honored."
The rapper is now a judge on the new season of American Idol.

Super-Sol silently pulls possibly poisonous dog food
By Ronny Linder-Ganz
Super-Sol pulled from its shelves its store brand Super Class Formula dog food, which originates from the same producer and importer as Nutra Nuggets, despite not informing the public that it may also have been dangerous for consumption. The importer of the dog food, CTS, also failed to warn consumers who already had purchased the dog food.
A deadly mold was discovered in one of the Nutra Nuggets Performance series of dog foods, which comes in 18-kilo green bags, a month and a half ago. CTS withdrew the food from stores, but not before many dog owners had purchased it. Dozens of dogs suffered fungal poisoning, particularly severe liver damage, after eating the food, and more than 20 have died.
Earlier this week a NIS 51 million class action motion was filed against CTS. Attorney Amir Rosenberg, who represents the Let the Animals Live animal rights organization in its battle against CTS, called the steps Super-Sol and CTS took "unreasonable and irresponsible."
"If they took the food for testing as they claim, then they have to tell the public," he said. "People who meanwhile bought the product may be feeding deadly food to their dogs. You can't take a product off the shelves in utter silence, test it, and then announce to the public only if you discovered it's toxic."
P.H. of Kfar Yona had bought Super-Class Formula dog food, and said his dog has had severe diarrhea for two weeks, but did not know why. "I felt secure, because I knew he was not eating Nutra Nuggets. Now I learn I may have unknowingly poisoned him with my own two hands."
Super-Sol blamed CTS for the silence. In early January, when suspicions arose that Nutra Nuggets had a problem that could impair dogs' health, the Super-Sol veterinarian contacted CTS and asked for clarifications.
"We were immediately reassured by CTS that the product we were marketing had no connection with the problem product that had been hurting dogs," the chain said. Super-Sol said it contacted CTS twice, out of its sense of responsibility to the public, and had been reassured twice, "beyond a shadow of doubt, that there was no problem with the product."
At any rate, Super-Sol decided to remove the Super-Class product so it could be 100 percent sure that it was suitable for consumption. The chain insisted it was not required to pull the product based on CTS directives.
Super-Sol did not offer an explanation to a question posed by Haaretz over why it had not informed the public. CTS also failed to answer questions as to why it had not informed the public about the withdrawal of the Super Class brand from supermarket shelves.
"Due to our moves in the last month and a half, after being advised as to the toxins in Nutra Nuggets products and after consultation with the Super-Sol chain, we decided to have all the Super Class Formula products undergo lab testing," CTS said. "These products are imported to Israel and met all the standards and requirements of the Agriculture Ministry and the strict standards of the United States Food and Drug Administration. Our testing was conducted only in order to reassure consumers."

Press Release 164/2014
14 July 2014
Development Minister Pekka Haavisto will attend the Informal Meeting of EU Development Ministers in Florence on 15 July. The main topics of the ministers' discussions are the global UN Post-2015 Development Agenda and the role of the private sector in development.
For the Post-2015 Development Agenda, Finland would like to see the EU to assume a stronger and active role in the preparations. To this end, clearly defined and solid stands must be approved for the EU to use in intergovernmental negotiations. Finland also considers it important that the EU discuss development goals especially with countries that have divergent views on this topic.
The discussions regarding the private sector will focus, in particular, on the creation of jobs and tax issues. Finland believes that, to increase employment, countries need the kind of economic growth that benefits all people, reduces inequality and respects the environment. The private sector also has an important role in how taxes can be collected for public services and for the wider development of societies.
At lunch the ministers will discuss the links between migration and development. The ministers' guests will be Peter Sutherland, Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General, and William Swing, Director General of the International Organization for Migration (IOM). The EU's objective is to develop the dialogue on migration with third countries – particularly countries in the Mediterranean region, Central Africa and the Horn of Africa.

What to CookAmanda & Merrill
Homemade Yogurt
- Merrill
A few weeks ago, Amanda and I met up with Mireille Guiliano, the author of Why French Women Don't Get Fat. Over lunch, we chatted about everything from being the CEO of a large company to Magnolia Bakery cupcakes. Mireille also told us about her yogurt maker, which she turns to on a weekly basis instead of buying yogurt at the supermarket. Listening to her rave about how easy her yogurt maker is to use, and how well it works, I began to think that this was something I might like to have around the kitchen.
So, I asked for this yogurt maker from my husband for Valentine's Day. (Super romantic, right?) And, because he's a wonderful, thoughtful husband, he got it for me -- along with a few packets of yogurt starter. Sigh.
The contraption is hardly a feat of high technology -- it consists of a base, a plastic cover and a simple heating mechanism, and it comes with 7 lidded glass yogurt jars -- but it fits easily on my counter and does the job of evenly and gently heating the yogurt for a sustained period of time (mine has an automatic shut-off timer, but you may want to opt for this simpler version if you're better at keeping track of time than I am).
The manual provides basic instructions and proportions for a few types of yogurt (plain, with jam, with syrup, etc.), and it's easy to use these as a jumping off point for other recipes. I tested out my yogurt maker for the first time last week, whipping up a few jars of plain, a few flavored with honey and vanilla, and a couple infused with espresso.
I sweetened the vanilla and espresso yogurt lightly; feel free to adjust the sweetness to your taste. And I used organic 2% milk. The yogurt had great flavor, with a nice delicate tang, but there was a little more whey swimming around the edges than I might have liked, and the texture, while smooth, could have been a bit creamier. I'd go with whole milk next time.
All in all, I'm converted. The yogurt base is easy and quick to make, and eating your own homemade yogurt out of little glass pots feels so very French. Plus, the yogurt really is good, and the flavor possibilities are endless. If you don't have --or don't want to invest in -- a yogurt maker of your own, here is a great resource for making homemade yogurt without any extra equipment.
Homemade Yogurt
Makes seven 6-ounce jars
- 9 cups (40 ounces) milk (you can use low fat or skim, but I recommend organic whole milk for the best results)
- 1 tablespoon starter or 1/2 cup yogurt with active live cultures

Phillips students, community working on piece of history
Submitted: 02/14/2013
- Hundreds of Northwoods kids find themselves working on a piece of history this school year.Phillips middle and high schoolers have been working on this tile mural since November. It's made from hundreds of clay pieces. Students draw on paper first, then transfer the designs to clay. The inspiration comes from the Friends of Fred Smith. The group looks after the Phillips artist's Wisconsin Concrete Park. Administrator Sharyn Friedell wants everyone to be involved."We are encouraging the kids to express through art, how they feel, what they think about their home, their school, their families, their friends," Friedell said. "So, it is truly a community project."Right now, high schoolers and volunteers are finishing the underglaze work. Friedell thinks the kids have taken a real ownership to the project."We had kids coming through the mural room here every period and they'd come in and look at the mural and say, 'Oh, there's one of mine,' so it's been great," Friedell said. "It's been great for all of us."The Friends of Fred Smith hired two Door County clay artists to help lead the 170 kids working on the mural. They plan to hang the finished product during an open house at the school in April.You can contact Sharyn at 715-339-7282.

text: AKghandi 74 Report post Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) So this is a long and mystical story about a boy and his subaru. It all started almost exactly one year ago, i purchased an 87 subaru GL-10 ea82t with 240k miles a "rebuilt" engine and a 5 speed dual range. It was in decent shape but it needed work. The interior and body were pretty nice, and the engine ran smooth so i payed him $500 and drove it home. But when the guy i got it from put the dual range in he didn't switch the rear diff or the front c/v's so i needed to find a parts car.. which i did, the exact same parts car the P/O had used. so i set about switching everything from the rear diff to the c/vs, interior pieces locks and ignition. and i also got the original hatch from the gl-10 with a bad window. and a set of 86' egg hole alloys After that it went smoothly for about 4 hrs. then i noticed the very distinct symphony of bad wheel bearings. so i went about replacing the front passenger side, and when i was done.. still made noise. so i replaced the drivers side, and it went away. then i figured well why not do the rears? so i did. After that there was a complete tune up and some new suspension peices like ball joints and tie rods. and i also replaced the fart pipe with a stock muffler. whisper quiet.(hence the name.i was torn between quiet riot and white noise) I drove it like that all winter and put roughly 6k miles on it and it was a blast Then the intake pipe and maf acted up. leading to a loss of employment, so i sat on it for a while then i decided to sell it in april. And now 6 months and 1k miles later i got it back!!! and i made a profit lol Right before i sold it i got the original hatch and a good window put back on and wired up, EVERYTHING works. from the cruise to the trip computer heres the hatch it had on it when i got it But the guy i sold it to decided he didnt like it the way it was, so he mounted some 2003 wrx seats in the front, got rid of the carpet in the back, and threw away the rear headrests. and he took the amp and subwoofer out. So that brings us to the present, its got some new issues and a few minor problems but im looking forward to getting my baby back in shape. onto the pics!/ this is how she looked when i sold it. which is the same but cleaner lol and heres how she looks today, i scored some more pugs yesterday, for $170 with almost brand new studded tires. i also have these for after i get a lift and some N/A 4x4 wagon springs and struts. and now some recent developments, she has developed an antifreeze leak, Im about 90% sure its just a turbo line or heater core hose. if it were the head/gasket i dont think it would be pooled on the head or sprayed on the spare tire. at most it might be the intake manifold gasket. This has become a book so i'm going to stop here and update as i go. thoughts, comments, opinions, jokes, anecdotes?

Why obese people are unable to lose weight?
Scientists have pinpointed exactly why obese people don't lose much weight despite going on a vigorous diet.
Researchers have found that a chemical known as the Neuropeptide (NPY) – which stimulates appetite – plays a major role in controlling whether the body burns or conserves energy.
The study by researchers at Sydney's Garvan Institute of Medical Research, shows that when the body takes in less energy or is on a diet, high levels of Neuropeptide signal the body that it is in a starvation mode, and the body starts storing as much energy as possible, News.com.au reported.
Co-author of the study, Professor Herzog, said that with obesity being a major epidemic in the community, researchers have found it challenging to find ways of tricking the body into losing weight because of NPY.
He said that now that they had identified the exact brain circuitry, drugs can be developed to target and control these types of neurons.
Herzog said that it was important to note that the study also showed that fad diets simply did not work and that weight loss needed to be done over a long period of time and that's what people underestimated.
The study has been published in the journal Cell Metabolism.
