How to simulate a Drag and drop in your interactive wireframes
Simulate drag and drop in your interactive wireframes with Justinmind. In this tutorial, you will learn how to do so.
Justinmind provides you with all the basic tools (set of events and actions) to define and simulate many cases of drag and drop events.
You can download an example here.
It contains the basic instances of drag and drop plus a couple of more complex cases, and you can use it as a guide to build your own drag and drop events.
- On Drag Started: Occurs when dragging begins
- On Drag: Occurs as the widget is dragged
- On Drag Stop: Occurs when the dragging ends, i.e. when the widget is dropped
- Move: This action moves a widget to a certain position in the screen. The move to position can be defined in different ways:
- To position: Use this option if you want to move the selected widget to a known position. The new position can be defined as absolute (fixed) in the screen or relative (calculated) to the container widget. To define the position as absolute, click on the corresponding checkbox labeled 'Absolute position'.
- By offset: Use this option if you want to move the selected widget by an offset defined in pixels.
- With cursor: Use the 'on Drag' event combined with a 'Move' action combined in order to move a widget around the screen according to the mouse movement. A movement constraint can also be defined.
- To drag start position: This option can only be carried out by combining an'on Drag' or 'on Drag Stop' event with your preferred action in order to move the selected widget to its initial position when the drag action stops.
- Insert Into: This action inserts a specific widget into a container widget. When a widget is inserted into a container, its absolute position will remain the same if the container has a free layout. Otherwise, the widget will be inserted according to the container's own layout positioning itself next to the closest container's child. Widgets that can be used as target containers for this action are dynamic panels, table cells or the entire screen. There is only one restriction for this action: container widgets cannot be inserted into any of their children widgets.
You can define all the different states of a drag and drop using the event types listed above. These events can be easily combined with the two actions to wireframe a wide range of drag and drop events.
Drag a widget
The simplest of these events is to make any widget in your screen 'draggable'. That will make the widget move when the user drags it in simulation.
To do so, follow the next steps:
- Select the widget you want to be "draggable" is on the screen.
- Add an 'on Drag + Move' event.
- Make sure that the widget you want to drag is selected and select the option 'With cursor' in the "Left" and "Top" drop-down menus at the bottom of the events dialog. Press OK.
Press the simulate button, click on the widget and drag the widget wherever you want to: it will move with the cursor. If you want to only drag horizontally or vertically, just select the option "Fixed" in the 'Left' drop-down menu (to allow only vertical drag) or in the 'Top' one (to allow only horizontal drag).
Tip: This feature could be used to simulate a slider behavior.
You can also restrict the movement of a widget within its parent boundaries by selecting the option 'Constraint by parent container' when defining the corresponding Move action.
If you want to move more than one widget while dragging, you just need to follow the steps explained before but adding new 'on Drag + Move' actions for each additional widget.
Drop a widget
When a widget is dropped, it stops moving and the event 'on Drag Stop' will be triggered. The event 'on Drag Stop' allows you to define the actions to be performed when a widget stops being dragged, but also to define where it must be dropped as a condition for the actions to be executed. For example, if you want the widget to return to the initial position, you can add an 'on Drag Start + Move' event and define "Drag start position" in the options.
In order to define the target area of a drop action, perform the following steps:
- Create a new prototype and select the widget you want to drag and drop on the screen.
- Add an 'on Drag Stop' event.
- Select any action you want to perform from the event drop-down and select the target widget. Press OK.
Tip: You can combine the 'on Drag Stop' event with the 'Insert Into' action, and have a container with vertical or horizontal layout as the target, in order to reorder its children.
If you want to limit the 'on drag stop' execution to a certain widget/group of widgets, click on the gear button next to the text 'Any component' in the events dialog to define the widget with which the drop action must be performed.

Demo example doesn't work in simulation mode, or in Chrome. Needed to export to HTML and run in Firefox. Are these know limitations? Can Chrome settings be adjusted to get it to work?
Hi there!
Is there a way to, instead of just move the object with Insert Into, clone as new object? I want to build a prototype that the user can click on an add button and another element duplicates.
Any way for me to achieve this?

PROPHECY 1 BY REV. CINDY JACOBS – Session 4 August 3 – Friday Morning
Rev Cindy Jacob
"And the Lord would say there's been a marriage of a religious and a political spirit that is trying to affect this election. And God says, Do not let even that political spirit affect the way you think, says God, and the way the Church votes. For God says, I have a plan for this Nation even in the next election and I am getting ready to shake and shake and shake, says God. But God says, I know what to do. Do not thwart my plans by thinking you know the way to go, for this is the time for the church to seek Me and disengage from the powers of darkness that want to sway the election.
I want to particularly speak to East Malaysia. And the Lord says, East Malaysia I am giving you a key to unlock the destiny of a nation, says the Lord. And the Lord says, let the Church of East Malaysia arise. And I am making you My hinge, says the Lord, that will open and close a destiny, says God. And God says, Begin to Fast and Pray.. Now! ..from today. I will raise up a movement of prophetic intercession in East Malaysia, says God that will become a wind of the Holy Spirit and it is going to begin to release the Fire of God in revival that will lead the whole region experiencing a move of the Holy Spirit, says God.<
So the Lord says, you as a Nation are in fact at the moment of a hinge of history, where You were even open the destiny wider Or for a season it will be shut close in the terms of advancement. But God says, there is time, if my people will pray and heed my call.
So in the Name of Jesus, I bind the political spirit that is trying to affect this election, and the religious spirit. And we say: you will no longer be in cooperation. You will no longer be in connection as it were a marriage together. We cut your tie today and we decree the will of God done on earth as it is in heaven!"
Lord is showing me in the Church this evening, there are awakeners, there are revivalists. There are those that are like a Martin Luther who is a Reformer. And the Holy Spirit began to speak to me and from the Word of God and it's like prophets can prophesy and then they can share a moment… And this is what the Holy Spirit spoke to me: He said that in this year of Jubilee, we are moving, we, the corporate Church. But the Church of Malaysia has been given, of course…. The Great Commission, to go and make disciples of nations and heal the sick.
And the Lord said to me, I am getting ready to actually cause the church of Malaysia that if they are willing, TO LIVE THE BOOK OF ACTS! And you know, Pentecost means Jubilee. And the Holy Spirit is getting ready to pour out an anointing for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with great power. And so you are moving right now. You are in transition. Listen to me… You are going from one time to a new season. And there are Kairos moments that you need to grab a hold of. If you are in conference earlier today, when there was weeping, I recognized it as travail. But sometimes we do not know what to do with that, because there is an administration of the Holy Spirit. The Bible says there are diverse kinds of administration and so we are going to take the anointing in the House to say… "God! We want a GREAT AWAKENING! We want to shift from the last season TO THE BOOK OF ACTS PENTECOST!" We want a shifting. We want to say, "God! Now!" Its like Shifting Gears!
And as you see that as the Holy Spirit fell, 3,000 were saved. The Bible says that God added daily to the Church. And as you begin to look to the Book of Acts, you find out there were great warfare around them, and the Holy Spirit spoke to me that you are moving to a new season where there is going to be clashes but don't fear it because there is violence in the heavens and the Spirit's realm over what's about to take place. Just like in the Book of Acts. Every time the Kingdom advances, there were push backs from Satan's realm. Are you getting this?
That's good news! You are not a tourist in your own country. You are really bringing change. The Will of God being pulled from heaven to earth. Are you understanding this?
And we must cooperate. And then the scripture, it says in Acts 4:31 – "they pray at the place where they were assembled together were shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit." I like the Nigerian says, the "Holy Ghost" and they spoke the Word of God with boldness. It says the multitude of the believers were of one heart, one soul. Something happened supernaturally to their hearts.
And God began to move and in Acts 5:28, they threatened and said, "Did we not strictly command you not to teach in this name? And look, you have filled Jerusalem with this man's doctrine…" A whole city was reached!
Can God transform cities? Can God transform cities?
Can He bring a great awakening to Malaysia? Can He bring a great revival?
Doesn't He want to pour out the Book of Acts today? Doesn't He want it to do through you?
Don't you want to be a revivalist?
Don't you want the power of the Holy Spirit to move through you?
If so, get up here & let's make it so!
"The Lord would say over Malaysia, I am getting ready not only to awaken you as a church. But I am going to awaken righteousness in this Nation, says the Lord.
And God says I am getting ready to shake systems. I am going to shake structures says God. I am going to shake everything that cannot be shaken. But God says, Do not fear, the shaking because I am ready to do a new thing for I am going to release a reformation anointing upon the parliament. I am going to release a reformation anointing on the governmental leaders of this Nation says God. And the Lord says, I am going to put one up and bring another down. And God said, This is a Kairos moment of turning says the Lord, where I want to turn Malaysia to her destiny and I want to release an economic revival as the spirit of corruption is pulled down says God.
And the Lord said, I want to make this Nation a wonder to many nations. So you will lend to many nations and not borrow.
And God says, I am going to move like a mighty rushing wind to such a degree that thousands upon thousands will be swept into the Kingdom. And there are those churches that are 100 members. They are going to be 1,000 members. There are some that are 1000 members and they are going to be 2,000 and 3,000. I am going to began to grow mega churches in outstanding ways, says the Lord.
And the Lord said, one of the greatest wonders, will be on the university campuses, says God. I am going to raise up 24hr houses of prayer on the University Campuses. And I am going to move with the young people in a great way, says God and the Lord said, "Watch and see", what I will do even among the professors, who intercede… and the engineering schools, the schools of engineering, says God, I am going to move.
And the Lord says, I am going to time this election precisely. It will not come a moment too soon. It will not come a moment too late, says the Lord. For I would say, as my Church begins to fast and pray, every day THERE SHOULD BE SOMEONE FASTING AND PRAYING FOR THIS NATION, says God, Surely I will begin to do some outstanding exposures, says the Lord."
Excerpts of prophecy to Bro Paul Low (Transparency International- Malaysia) related to the nation.
Cindy Jacobs' Comments:
Do you understand what a kairos moment this is?…
God is a History making God. He is the God of History. And the Lord said, this nation was at a point, a turning point. It is at the hinge of history, that's what He said earlier today. And the Lord spoke over East Malaysia… And God said over East Malaysia that you are the key to the election, the key.
You will be able to say to your children, "I was there when God said the great awakening would come.." I remember being a part of the great Argentine revival prophesying the kind of things I did tonight. That churches that were small would become a thousand, ten thousand. It happened. You see, when the powers of darkness are neutralized over a nation, who wouldn't want to be saved? ..if they could really see Jesus. People become so open to the Lord, and that's revival. It's a very… pregnant moment.
But Transition is a serious time. It could go one way or the other. So it's up to you to pray, it's up to you to stand up.
Prophecy for Paul Low, The President of Transparency International Malaysia:
And the Lord would say, "Zero Corruption, No tolerance!…. And what I expose is going to be headline news,.." And God says, "I am going to begin to expose the international connections that prop up the corruption behind the scenes and God says no one will be exempt when I begin to move! They will not be able to buy their way out of it, they will not be able to say I'm from this family, they will be able to say, I have that connection. Because I am the great Judge of Heaven, I'm going to take this to court. And I am going to say this nation will not be crippled with corruption anymore!" says the Lord.
This is going be a Holy Nation, says God, set apart for me.

HK govt CIO exploring industry cloud possibility
The Office of Government Chief Information Officer (OGCIO) is exploring the concept of an industry cloud platform with several parties, said government CIO Daniel Lai during a recent interview with Computerworld Hong Kong.
According to him, this platform allows local software firms to turn products into cloud-enabled tools and local industries to find useful apps. Lai added that the platform will also create business opportunities for local consulting firms to provide platform support.
"This is like an app store where customers find affordable systems and small vendors find opportunities," he noted. "The government, or the Hong Kong Productivity Council, could be a facilitator behind the platform."
Lai pointed out that he proposed this cloud platform concept more than ten years ago. "Back then there were ASPs (application service providers), but building such a platform was still costly. Now is a great time to build a cloud platform as Internet is prevalent and app stores are popular."
While the government has long been criticized for not buying products from smaller local vendors, Lai said the government are using locally-developed technologies but on a smaller scale. "The government in talk with the HKPC to see how we can throw more support [to smaller tech vendors]," said Lai. "For instance, we might build a center to showcase technologies by small vendors and build a catalog for their products," he noted.

Bella Thorne marked her Shake It Up co-star Zendaya's birthday on Thursday (01Sep16) by sharing a throwback picture of the pair together.
The duo both found fame on the Disney Channel show, which ran from 2010 to 2013, and have gone on to have successful careers, but Bella remembered where she had come from in a sweet post to celebrate Zendaya as she turned 20.
Alongside the picture, which showed Bella wearing a tiger dress and a yellow cardigan while Zendaya sported a floral ensemble, Bella wrote: "Happy birthday babygirl. So proud of you #12&13 #shakeitup."
Since Shake It Up ended, Bella and Zendaya have remained close friends, with the redheaded actress on hand to support her pal when she was embroiled in controversy following Fashion Police host Giuliana Rancic's comment that Zendaya's dreadlocked hairstyle at the Oscars last year (15) made her look like she smelled of "patchouli and weed".
In a video on RyanSeacrest.com after the incident, Bella said: "I know Giuliana, and I know Zendaya, and I know them both personally. And honestly Giuliana is a really sweet person. And Zendaya has been on Fashion Police as a guest, and Giuliana just goes on and on about how much she loves her.
"So I think when Giuliana made that comment, although this doesn't justify it in any way, I think that she didn't mean it like that, and that it probably just came out wrong because she really loves Zendaya. And I love them both."
Bella wasn't the only star to wish Zendaya a happy birthday on Thursday. Supermodel Naomi Campbell also took to her social media page to post a snap of herself with her arm around Zendaya, and she wrote: "#Happybirthday #beauty @zendaya sending you so much love and blessings on this very special day. May you get all you desire... Work hard yes, make sure you enjoy every experience life gives to you. God bless you."

We've been lucky enough to already have been given tons of stuff from friends. Have you ever noticed that as soon as people find out you're pregnant they want to unload all their baby stuff on you? I guess it pays to let your friends have kids before you.
Most of the re-arranging and buying for the baby room will happen in the new year, but I have made one purchase.
It's a print called "Jenny at the table" from one of my favorite ever children's books, Higglety Pigglety Pop!: Or There Must Be More to Life by Maurice Sendak. I admittedly spent a stupid amount of money on it, but I do love it and it's a lovely little image, and perfect for the occasion.
We're heading to Toronto tomorrow to spend Christmas with my family, so Merry Christmas to all of you!

Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Ok so here is the strategy with this warwick. It all depends you you play against in your solo. Everyone thinks, solo warwick? you are nuts HeAt? Well no, im not. His lifesteal makes him lethal late game. That while hitting crits is ridiculous amounts of life steal. I have stood there and gotten a triple kill with him starting at 200 HP and them with over 3/4. I just walked up and ultid then hungered the disabler then killed him and ran after the others. with ghost combined with my extra speed. Now heres the trick to this (p.s. the 3 people were sion, ashe and morgana (she missed her prison))
Early Game:
Until you get level 6, you want to play pretty defensive, stop the creeps at the tower, if you get harassed you can use your HS (hungering strike) for healing purposes. Your life steal should do the trick though, combined with potions. When you hit level 6, with your low atk, i wouldnt take the person in your lane. If you want, you can switch ghost with teleport. But i usually do damage control since i usually play with friends who arent that good (but still lvl 30). What i do is i go top or bottom and help them gank. My ultimate + hungering strike + the two people at the bottom usually gets one, or if they have exhaust, both kills. Then i go back and get my Cloak.
Mid game:
After you have your cloak from ganking, and possibly a B.F. sword, you should be hitting HARD. 2-300 dmg early on crits is ALWAYS a good thing. At level 10ish you will have your 18% crit chance combined by warwick's own 6.6% from levels. Then you will have your extra 30+% Crit damage. With your 25% atk speed.. Oh boy. At this point i would even go and get golem, maybe solo dragon for some gold. Whatever keeps your team going. After you finish your infinity edge, get another cloak, the more crit chance you have. Nice :thumbsup: If you are killing stuff like no tomorrow, i mean like, 15 kills by 15 mins, 1 you could have won the game by going after turrets, and two, you should have a phantom dancer by now as well.
The most kills ive had by 25 was 21 i beleive, and it was premade vs. premade too. Sad.
Well late game:
This all depends on what is happening at that time, you should be a pretty lethal tank at this point, build should be done. Well, id like to add my best rec with this build was 32-1-12
that was at the 38 minute mark of the game i was 25-0 in.. I got triple stunned and exhausted.. FML.
Well enjoy guys!
- HeAt.
If you have any tips feel free, ill take them, try them, switch it up. Especially on masteries because i didnt bother trying more then what i have made.

The map is generated through the NBN Gateway using their Interactive Mapping Tool.
C. uncialis is a very common lichen of peaty moorlands throughout most of Ireland. It is generally an easy plant to recognise on account of its smooth, swollen, hollow stems which are forked towards the top to form pointed branches, rather spiky and prickly when dry. The yellowy-grey colour is easy to spot against the background of peaty soil, dark green moss carpets or brown leaf litter.

Schaumburg, Ill. – The Gateway Grizzlies squandered a late lead and fell to the Schaumburg Boomers 4-3 in 10 innings at Boomers Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
After taking a 3-1 lead into the bottom half of the seventh, the Grizzlies (37-37) gave up a run in the seventh and ninth as Schaumburg tied things at 3-3. Lefty Chris Scarlett (0-1) walked three batters and allowed a walk-off infield single to Mark Nelson as the Boomers won it in the 10th.
Gateway starter Corey Kimes provided a solid outing as he tossed six innings and allowed just one run. Meanwhile, Gateway's offense pulled ahead early. In the first, Craig Massoni plated the game's first run with a sac fly. Massoni gave the Grizzlies a 2-0 lead in the third when he smacked an RBI double up against the left field fence to score Seth Heck.
The Boomers (33-40) got on the scoreboard in the sixth inning with James Keller's solo shot to left field.
Heck hit a sac fly to make it 3-1 in the top of the seventh. In the bottom half, RHP Jon Pusateri replaced Kimes. He gave up a one-out single to Kenny Towns. With two outs, Towns took off for second on a delayed steal. Gateway catcher Jason Scholl tossed the ball into centerfield and Towns raced all the way around to cross home.
After RHP Kevin Jefferis threw a scoreless eighth, RHP Will LaMarche entered the game in the ninth with Gateway leading 3-2. He was looking for his second save in as many days. After striking out the first batter of the frame, he walked Towns. With two outs and Schaumburg down to their final strike, Griff Gordon laced a double down the right field line to plate Towns and tie it at 3-3.
Schaumburg's bullpen combined to keep the Grizzlies off balance. RHP Jake Joyce and RHP Dexter Price (3-4) threw 3.2 innings of scoreless baseball in relief of Boomers starter Seth Webster. Their work set up Schaumburg's rally in the 10th.
In a bright spot, eight different Grizzlies recorded hits in the game. Scholl led the way with a pair of doubles.
The Grizzlies have two consecutive off days before returning to GCS Ballpark on Wednesday night to take on the Evansville Otters. First pitch is at 7:05 p.m.
For tickets, please call the GCS Ballpark box office at (618) 337-3000 or visit www.GatewayGrizzlies.com.

The short answer is: when the water temps are somewhere between 62 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit…give or take. While water temp is important other factors likely play a part as well. A study on carp spawning in Ontario found that even with different water temperatures carp spawned around the same time over two years. This suggests that so long as the water temperature is within the right range the fish will spawn around the same time each year – which is good news for anglers!
It's worth noting that even in a scientific paper about carp spawning the authors noted that the fish in the area "began to feed intensively during the prespawning period" – so make sure not to miss one of the best times of the year to catch them!
The paper used for this article was: Swee, U. Boon, and Hugh R. McCrimmon. "Reproductive biology of the carp, Cyprinus carpio L., in Lake St. Lawrence, Ontario." Transactions of the American Fisheries Society 95.4 (1966): 372-380.

(KMOV) – New charges have been filed against a woman accused of scamming people who were interested in buying local concert tickets online.
Prosecutors charged Desiree Townsend with tricking someone into buying fake tickets to the Bruno Mars concert in August.
In this case, police say the 36-year-old went by the name Desiree Covington and had someone spend more than $200 on fake tickets.
Townsend was already accused of tricking victims from O'Fallon, Missouri, Edwardsville and St. Peters.

Colorful, curvaceous and a cinch to store, winter squash is one of the most nutritious crops you can grow, and these spectacular fruits hold their — vitamins A and C and other healthful riches — throughout their long storage life. Growing winter squash is easy whatever the variety you choose, and butternuts, buttercups and other types with dense flesh can stand in for carrots, pumpkins and sweet potatoes in any recipe.
Seed catalogs typically sort winter squash varieties into the following types, listed here in order of their popularity with the MOTHER EARTH NEWS Gardening Advisory Group:
Butternut squash combine rich flavor and smooth texture with natural resistance to squash vine borers. These bottle-shaped fruits have buff-brown rinds and will store for six months or longer.
Buttercup squash rival butternuts in flavor and productivity. The vigorous plants produce heavy crops of squat, green fruits. Fruits will store for four to six months.
Hubbard squash and kabocha squash range from medium-sized to huge and have drier flesh than other winter squash. Rind color varies with variety, and all varieties will store for four to six months. (Hubbard squash are so attractive to squash vine borers that some gardeners use this type as a "trap crop" for this insect pest.)
Cylinder-shaped delicata squash and pumpkin-shaped dumpling squash produce single-serving-size, ivory fruits with green stripes that turn orange in storage. Fast to mature, these are among the easiest winter squash to grow in cool climates. Fruits will store for three to five months.
Acorn squash are ribbed, round fruits that have gold or green rinds. They mature quickly and will store for at least three months, making them popular in areas with short summers.
Spaghetti squash are full of stringy fibers that resemble pasta. The oblong fruits have smooth rinds that range from tan to orange, and they will store for three to six months.
Cushaw squash produce big, bulb-shaped fruits with dense, sweet flesh. Plants need a long, warm growing season and will store for at least four months.
See our chart of winter squash species for more information to help you find the perfect winter squash for you.
In spring, sow seeds in prepared beds or hills after your last frost has passed, or sow them indoors under bright fluorescent lights. Set out seedlings when they are about three weeks old. In Zone 6 and warmer, you can plant more winter squash in early summer, using space vacated by fall-planted garlic or early spring lettuce. Stop planting winter squash 14 weeks before your expected first fall frost.
Winter squash grows best in warm conditions, in fertile, well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.5. Choose a sunny site and prepare 3-foot-wide planting hills within wide rows, or position them along your garden's edge. Leave 5 to 6 feet between hills. Loosen the soil in the planting sites to at least 12 inches deep. Thoroughly mix in a 2-inch layer of mature compost and a light application of balanced, organic fertilizer. Water well. Plant six seeds per hill, poking them into the soil 1 inch deep. After seeds germinate (about 10 days after sowing), thin seedlings to three per hill. Set up protective row covers as soon as you're done planting. (See The No-Spray Way to Protect Plants for more information on how to guard your garden crops with row covers.)
Fruits are ripe if you cannot easily pierce the rind with your fingernail. Never rush to harvest winter squash, though, because immature fruits won't store well. Unless pests or freezing weather threaten them, allow fruits to ripen until the vines begin to die back. Expect to harvest three to five squash per plant. Use pruning shears to cut fruits from the vine, leaving 1 inch of stem attached. Clean away dirt with a soft, damp cloth, and allow fruits to cure for two weeks in a spot that's 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Store cured squash in a cool, dry place, such as your basement, a cool closet or even under your bed. Check every two weeks for signs of spoilage.
If you harvest your winter squash after the fruits have fully matured, saving seeds is simply a matter of rinsing, drying and storing the biggest, plumpest seeds that come across your cutting board. If stored in a cool, dry place, winter squash seeds remain viable for up to six years. Be sure to isolate varieties of the same species by planting them at opposite ends of the garden, or by growing one variety early in the season and another from midsummer to fall. Also keep in mind that acorn, delicata, dumpling and spaghetti squash can cross with summer squash, which is of the same species (Cucurbita pepo).
Winter squash face challenges from squash bugs, squash vine borers, and cucumber beetles. To defend your plants from all three insects, shield them with row covers held aloft with stakes or hoops until the plants begin to bloom. Big, healthy plants will produce well despite pest pressure. Among diseases, powdery mildew is a common problem best prevented by growing resistant varieties, which often have "PMR" (for "powdery mildew resistance") after their variety names. In addition, a spray made of 1 part milk and 6 parts water can suppress powdery mildew if applied every two weeks during the second half of summer. To see other readers' squash bug prevention tips and post your own — and for instructions on how to make Mother's own squash bug squisher — check out Homemade Squisher for Squash Bug Control.
Grow open-pollinated varieties so you can save your own seeds for eating and replanting. Only choose hybrids if you need a space-saving bush habit or a special form of disease resistance.
Try growing winter squash in an old compost pile located along the edge of your garden. Small-fruited varieties do well if allowed to scramble up a fence.
Old-fashioned squash pies laced with cinnamon and ginger will never go out of style, but newer trends in winter squash cuisine favor savory risottos and creamy, squash-stuffed ravioli. Sage is a great accent herb for winter squash, and some cooks brush maple syrup or honey onto chunks of baked (or grilled) squash to create a caramel glaze. Make large fruits easier to cut by lopping off a slice from one side using a sharp, heavy knife, creating a flat surface. Cut large fruits into chunks before removing the rinds. Winter squash seeds are also edible and delicious! Roast the rinsed, dried seeds at 275 degrees Fahrenheit until they just begin to pop, about 15 to 20 minutes. Season with sea salt and enjoy.

If you have a small space, an excellent way to grow winter squashes is on an arch. My husband built me a 6 ft. arch of PVC pipe and hogwire, and placed it with one "foot" in each raised bed. I put a ton of compost on each side and planted the squash plants close together. I just have 200-300 pounds of spaghetti squash growing on a 3 ft wide arch. I'll be giving it away like crazy when it ripens, as my husband couldn't possibly eat it all. Giving food to those who need it is the most fun part of gardening (with the possible exception of eating it!) Grow a bit too much and share! You can make a real difference in someone's life without much more work or resources.
We started gardening and we were gone wrong. We could not figure out why we were not getting the beautiful vegetables we were hoping for. People suggest to spray chemicals for vegetables and fruits but is poison and it is not organic vegetables. My lab professor referred a guide it helps me to grow my gardening as what we like, you can get the guide from here >> ( http://go2l.ink/plants ) <<. I have recommended this system to all of my friends and family. We got good organic natural vegetables and fruits in the next harvest, one of the beautiful products in the market....*
Hi, I have planted seeds from a friend that were given to me that she had seed saved. They are labeled as KOMUCHA squash. However, now that they have matured and they started out a pale yellow/green color and then changed to having some dark green spots along with the light green color base, to now being dark green and some have the still dark green markings or spots. The longer I leave it on the vine, the darker green the squash becomes. Also, most at an oblong shape, long and very heavy, but some are kind of rounder looking, but all have the same color and markings. I finally cut one of the dark green ones open that I had cut off a few weeks ago and now today found out that it is SPAGHETTI SQUASH!. So I baked it and it is very delicious. Have you any idea the kind of spaghetti squash that this is? I have only seen a very few other photos online from other people having this dark green spaghetti squash. Thanks. Darlia
I have harvested my butternut squashes...they are the beautiful golden color, and the skin is resistant to being nicked. The vines are still green. Will the plant flower and produce a second crop if I leave it in the ground?

It is time to put my preseason prophecies to the test. Just before opening day of the NFL season I went through my annual ritual of predicting the won-loss record of all 32 NFL teams – along with my playoff participants and Super Bowl finalists/winners.
I had my usual hits and misses, and my blind faith in the San Diego Chargers winning the AFC. To recap further…
- Seven of my 12 playoff picks did actually advance to the postseason tournament.
- I correctly predicted the record of seven teams, and was off by one win/loss on eight others and two wins/losses off on seven more – accounting for 22 of the 32 teams. I picked the correct order of finish in the AFC South, only being off by a combined three games among the four teams. I also came close to predicting the correct order of finish of the AFC East – technically Miami finishes ahead of Buffalo based on better divisional record.
- Teams I missed the mark on the most: Rams (2 wins v. predicted 10), Bengals (9 wins v. predicted 2), and 49ers (13 wins v. predicted 7).
I also have a baseball version of last year's predictions I still haven't gotten to. Maybe it was because of that Red Sox/Braves World Series I predicted.
On to the rundown…
New England: predicted record 13-3, actual 13-3
As I said back in September, the Pats don't start to get graded until the playoffs. If both No. 1 seeds hold this year, a Pats/Packers Super Bowl could turn into the Alamo Bowl all over again, as both teams are mirror images (unstoppable offenses plus shaky D).
NY Jets: predicted 10-6, actual 8-8
Does the NFL playoffs proceed without EITHER of the Ryan brothers? The Jets are so good at collecting attitudes that maybe they should contact the Sacramento Kings and trade for DeMarcus Cousins — he'd fit right in.
Miami: predicted 4-12, actual 6-10
You can't come back from 0-7, but winning six of final nine builds momentum for next season with new coaching staff.
Buffalo: predicted 7-9, actual 6-10
I predicted improvement with the Bills this year, and for the first half of the season, I was right.
Baltimore: predicted 11-5, actual 12-4
I had the AFC North as a dead heat before the season, and the season played out exactly so, except the Ravens scored a huge sweep on Steelers. Result is No. 2 seed and first home playoff game in four years. This may be the Ravens best chance since the Super Bowl 35 winning team.
Pittsburgh: predicted 11-5, actual 12-4
The Steelers have many more issues than the Ravens: Roethlisberger hobbling, Mendenhall out, and it is not medically safe for Ryan Clark to play in Denver this weekend. Steelers should make it through Round 1, but repeating as AFC Champs is now a long shot.
Cincinnati: predicted 2-14, actual 9-7
Obviously exceeded the expectations of everyone, and squeezed out the final Wild Card spot beating the teams they were supposed to. 9-0 v. non-playoff teams, 0-7 v. playoff opponents.
Cleveland: predicted 7-9, actual 4-12
The Madden Curse has made a believer out of Peyton Hillis. The offense scored more than 20 points only once all season and lost to the Steelers by scores of 14-3 and 13-9.
Houston: predicted 10-6, actual 10-6
Indeed took advantage of the Colts' nosedive to gain its first-ever playoff berth. Despite a season-ending, three-game losing streak and being down to a third-string QB, the Texans have a good shot to at least win a playoff game.
Tennessee: predicted 9-7, actual 9-7
Chris Johnson picked it up in the second half of the season with 893 combined yards, but still finished with just four touchdowns on the year. The jury will remain out on Jake Locker as a future QB.
Jacksonville: predicted 6-10, actual 5-11
Correctly predicted that Jack Del Rio was more than overdue to get his walking papers. Maurice Jones-Drew led the league with nearly 2,000 combined yards, which is even more impressive considering rookie Blaine Gabbert kept no one honest.
Indianapolis: predicted 4-12, actual 2-14
Just before the season started I predicted Peyton Manning would not take a snap all year. Next prediction, Peyton Manning wants out after Indy selects Oliver Luck's kid.
Denver: predicted 8-8, actual 8-8
Wins AFC West despite a point differential of -91.
San Diego: predicted 11-5, actual 8-8
Dug such a huge hole in October/November that not even December could bail the Bolts out this time.
Oakland: predicted 5-11, actual 8-8
May need a loan modification after mortgaging future on a well-used Carson Palmer.
Kansas City: predicted 7-9, actual 7-9
Said KC would take a step back this year, and the 2011 season was almost over before it began, especially when Jamaal Charles went down. One of many teams in the market for a QB, and no I don't mean Donovan McNabb.
NY Giants: predicted 8-8, actual 9-7
Suddenly trending as everyone's dark horse darling for the playoffs. Well Eli Manning pushed 5,000 yards, and next to Cam Newton, Victor Cruz was the fantasy football breakthrough of the year. NYG's road to the promised land is about the same as 2007, through Green Bay and possibly the Patriots. And if Giants make it to big game, they will do so after being outscored in regular season (394-400).
Philadelphia: predicted 11-5, actual 8-8
The "Dream Team" would had snuck into the playoffs had the Jets beaten Giants a couple weeks back, which was way too much to ask.
Dallas: predicted 10-6, actual 8-8
Another crazy, roller-coaster, checkered year in Big D. First Sunday Nighter v. Giants proved to be one blown lead too many.
Washington: predicted 5-11, actual 5-11
Shanny says team much better off than a year ago. Anyone buy that after a 2-10 finish?
Green Bay: predicted 11-5, actual 15-1
Good news is Pack has "easy" road this year, only needing to win two home games. Bad news is opposition (possibly Giants/Niners/Saints) will be more than formidable, and defense showing disturbing signs.
Detroit: predicted 11-5, actual 10-6
Breaks 12-year playoff drought but now has to go to New Orleans in Round 1, and we saw that movie (minus Suh) just a few weeks back. RB will be a draft need. Jahvid Best's concussion history definite issue at this point.
Chicago: predicted 7-9, actual 8-8
I called this as a Bears "down year" in September. Cutler/Forte will keep team in mix, but receiving corps must be upgraded.
Minnesota: predicted 5-11, actual 3-13
Even a rougher road than I thought back in September. Leslie Frazier likely gets a mulligan but purple still faces uphill battle in tough division.
New Orleans: predicted 12-4, actual 13-3
NFL's second-best team? Have routed Giants, Lions, and Falcons at home – but will likely need to win two games in postseason on the road.
Atlanta: predicted 10-6, actual 10-6
Only difference is I had A-T-L being squeezed out of postseason, but 10-6 wound up more than good enough. But Atlanta proved in regular season that they can't quite hang with the heavyweights (Saints/Packers).
Carolina: predicted 4-12, actual 6-10
Cam Newton's development has accelerated rebuilding process. Can see Panthers as a Wild Card entrant in 2012.
Tampa Bay: predicted 7-9, actual 4-12
I said they would regress like KC in AFC, but wheels came off much worse than I envisioned. Historic 26-game losing streak still defines franchise's history, but current 10-game slight not that far off.
San Francisco: predicted 7-9, actual 13-3
When the Lights Go Out in the City. Niners should like their current position, being given little respect and no chance in the playoffs by the national pundits. MNF game v. Pittsburgh proved franchise resurgence is for real, but divisional playoff a referendum on QB Alex Smith's future.
Arizona: predicted 7-9, actual 8-8
Don't think Larry Fitzgerald is tough? Turns out he finished season finale with an INJURED LUNG.
Seattle: predicted 5-11, actual 7-9
Back-to-back 7-9 campaigns open Pete Carroll era. Year No. 3 will be key with upgrade needed under center.
St. Louis: predicted 10-6, actual 2-14
My preseason pick regressed to the point of the front office cleaning house and starting over from square one. Unlike Matthew Stafford, Sam Bradford has not been given a fair shake with a supporting cast.
Revised Playoff Predictions
AFC Championship – New England over Baltimore
NFC Championship – Green Bay over San Francisco
SUPER BOWL 46 – Green Bay over New England (staying with preseason prediction)

Manchester United chief executive David Gill today criticised FIFA following mixed messages about the scheduling of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
The European Club Association, representing 197 clubs across the continent, have underlined their opposition to playing the tournament during the winter - even though summer temperatures could reach 50 degrees Celsius in the desert heat.
A winter World Cup would mean a complete restructuring of the European calendar, and ECA general secretary Michele Centenaro said all clubs were opposed to "the disruption of the traditional domestic football season".
FIFA president Sepp Blatter last month said he expected the 2022 finals to be played in winter, but he has since revised that stance and given a strong hint that the tournament will be held in the summer.
"It has not been dealt with correctly," said Gill.
"There has been concern obviously in the way it has manifested itself. That is not just our view, it's the view of more than 100 clubs individually and collectively.
"This is a major thing that will have ramifications for club football for three years. For it to happen in that way was somewhat surprising. This is an issue that has not been dealt with correctly."
Gill and others are also opposed to releasing players for two major competitions in the same season - notably next year when Euro 2012 and the London Olympics are separated by less than a month.
"A player who is in the Euro squad shouldn't be in the Olympics squad," said Gill. "Obviously we want to make a success of the Olympics and we are happy to release players but I think common sense will prevail."
The ECA have warned that FIFA must pay more attention to their demands or risk conflict.
Calling for a greater role in the decision-making process of the international match calendar was Sandro Rosell, the president of Spanish champions Barcelona and an ECA vice-president.
"I wouldn't say we are at war, the clubs are very patient, but we have our limits," Rosell told a press conference after the two-day ECA general assembly in Geneva.
"We hope UEFA and FIFA will hear what we have to say to them. We have no doubt they will listen to us and consider what we are asking for and that it is logical and fair."
The clubs are angry that FIFA have added eight additional international fixtures to the match calendar from 2011-14, including this week's round of friendlies across Europe.
AC Milan operations director Umberto Gandini, the ECA vice-chairman, said the current schedule suited no-one.
"Tell me which national team manager or club manager is happy there is an international friendly tomorrow?" Gandini said.
"All of a sudden we discover they (FIFA) can modify the calendar any time they like. If you are not heard you have to scream."

Gryphons too strong for Golden Falcons
By MOC Sports Information
Published in Sports on March 2, 2013 11:22 PM
ROCKY MOUNT -- Charles B. Aycock wanted to hang around long enough and aggravate defending Class 3-A state champion Rocky Mount on Friday evening.
The Gryphons never tightened up.
And the 12th-seeded Golden Falcons couldn't overcome a second-quarter scoring drought and committed 26 turnovers during a 72-43 loss in the N.C. High School Athletic Association boys' basketball sectional finals.
Dante Battle posted a double-double -- 20 points, 10 rebounds -- for Rocky Mount, which clinched its fourth consecutive trip to the eastern regionals. Immanuel King added 16 points and Michael Gainey Jr. chipped in 13.
Michael Williams pumped in 15 points for Aycock, which finished 15-13 overall after winning just four games last season. Shakel Powell knocked down 11 points and Neil Clark supplied 10 points off the bench.
"This is a team that has really overachieved," third-year CBA head coach Steve Moats said. "To go from four wins to sectional finals in a year, speaks volumes to the hard work of our seniors and the contributions of our juniors.
"I thought it was a great improvement for a team in one year."
The No. 2-ranked Gryphons (25-2) claimed their ninth consecutive postseason victory and 18th overall since 2010 when they also beat the Golden Falcons in the sectional championships.
"I'm glad to see we didn't get out of whack when we didn't hit the 3-ball, which really wasn't good to us tonight," Rocky Mount coach Michael Gainey said. "The inside play was really what I wanted to see. I don't want to stay out there and shoot those threes. The guys attacked the basket and got the ball inside, I was very pleased with that."
Aycock could never find an offensive balance against Rocky Mount's taller frontcourt -- the 6-foot-5 Battle, 6-4 Gainey Jr. and 6-3 Austin Warner. The trio altered numerous shots and controlled the boards during the early stages of the game.
Jump shots wouldn't fall for the Golden Falcons, who needed the conversions to spread the defense and open the inside for Williams and senior forward AJ Mundle. Mundle, one of three seniors in the starting lineup, concluded his prep career with a six-point, six-rebound performance.
Rocky Mount led 17-9 after one quarter and held Aycock scoreless the first five minutes of the second period. The Gryphons' advantage swelled to 25-9 before Shakel Powell and Williams broke the spell with consecutive 3-pointers.
The Golden Falcons trailed 31-19 at intermission.
"We talked about at halftime that here we are having played really poorly in the first half, we thought, and to have a chance," Moats said. "It's not like we were in the game, but if we had started the third quarter with a run we could have been in the game and that just didn't happen."
Battle collected four points, four rebounds and blocked two shots in the third quarter. King and Gainey Jr. combined for 12 points, mostly off transition baskets, and propelled the Gryphons further ahead, 49-29.
Clark scored eight points, snared three rebounds, picked Rocky Mount for two steals and dished out an assist in the fourth quarter. Mundle, Powell and senior Cody Garris combined for six points.

The Energy Tax Act of 1978 scented like good news, since it offered generous credits to individuals and businesses using alternative energy installations to cut down on their needs for nonrenewable fuel sources. However, since that legislation was passed, its geothermal clause has fallen prey to what Rep. Tony P. Hall (D-Ohio) calls an "arbitrary" ruling of the Internal Revenue Service.
In addition to its solar and wind power provisions, you see, the Energy Tax Act sought to encourage the use of geothermal energy by granting a 407, tax credit on the cost of "earth-powered" equipment to heat or cool residences, and a 10 percent credit for commercial buildings (with a maximum allowance of $4,000).
However, the IRS has ruled that — in order for an owner to qualify for the tax credit — his or her geothermal source must register a temperature of at least 122 degrees Fahrenheit. That regulation, unfortunately, made most buildings in the eastern half of the U.S. ineligible ... since — in that region — ground water of about 50 degrees provides much of the available geothermal energy.
And that, says Rep. Hall, "is precisely the sort of petty bureaucratic nonsense that we're trying to eliminate from the federal government." Furthermore, maintains the Ohio lawmaker, "The IRS temperature ruling ... ignores the tremendous energy-saving potential of lower-temperature geothermal sources that are just as valuable as other forms of renewable energy."
To thwart the tax bureau's action, Hall and his colleague Rep. Don Clauses (R-Calif.) have introduced bipartisan legislation (House bill 4091) that would eliminate the IRS's ability to set a temperature requirement. At press time, the Hall-Clauses bill was scheduled for hearings before the House Ways and Means subcommittee of Select Revenue Measures.
Dr. John Gofman — former atomic energy scientist, renowned heart disease researcher and antinuclear advocate — has written a recently released book called Radiation and Human Health (Sierra Club Books). This massive (908-page) tome is the result of years of study and is, as its subtitle proclaims, "a comprehensive investigation of the evidence relating low-level radiation to cancer and other disease."
The detailed textbook serves several important purposes:
Should an airline stewardess avoid flying during early pregnancy? Is watching color television a significant radiation hazard? What are the odds that giving radioactive iodine to a 25-year-old with hyperthyroidism will cause the patient to die later of a radiation-induced cancer? The text discusses these and many more "real life" radiation hazard situations.
Dr. Gofman has made an enormous contribution to public well-being by writing Radiation and Human Health. Let's hope that other radiation scientists respond seriously and honestly to his findings.
In 1978 Lt. Col. Jim Channon was assigned by the U.S. Army's Task Force Delta — a "think tank" of officers — to investigate the self-awareness movement in California and evaluate how its ideas might be used in the military group's effort to "humanize" the armed services. After attending over 100 sessions on New Age philosophies and activities, Channon synthesized what he felt was best in the various human-potential disciplines into a hypothetical "Natural Guard" which — somewhat to the officer's surprise — has begun to make the transition from idea to reality.
The First Earth Battalion (as as Channon calls his proposed new army unit ) will comprise men and women known as "Warrior-Monks" ... whose extraordinary skills would combine courage and strength with sensitivity and the spirit of sacrifice. The spiritual soldiers will — it's planned — move beyond traditional weapons-based combat ( which Channon labels Force of Arms) to achieve the higher ethic of Force of Spirit ... and, ultimately, Force of Heart. At the proposed First Earth Battalion Academy in Santa Fe, New Mexico, recruits will study meditation, fasting, isolation, philosophy, defensive martial arts, and other nondestructive ways of dealing with crises. Eventually, Channon expects his warrior-monks to intervene in international and local conflicts, where it's hoped that they'll be able to prevail by a show of superior ethical force.
The military hierarchy's initial reaction to Channon's project has been encouraging: He was invited to present his concept to the cadets at West Point ... and that presentation was videotaped for further distribution. However, the futurist now needs funds — which will have to come either from private sources or from Congress — to transform his vision into a functioning program. Chanson emphasizes that membership in the First Earth Battalion is open to everyone: ''If you want to be a member, you already are," he says. 'In Fact, you can begin right now to prepare yourself for the more precise training that will take place within the battalion.

I've been a little obsessed with mini cookie cups ever since making these Snickerdoodle Caramel Sundaes, and thought it would be fun to experiment with them for Halloween. After scribbling down a few ideas, I settled on SPIDERS because this is the one time of year where I actually kind of welcome these 8 legged "friends"… the cute/crafty ones at least! ;)
Anyways, these cookies are easier to make than they may look at a glance (which is always a good thing, right?!). I used Krusteaz Oatmeal Scotchie Cookie Mix for the base, and mixed in some crushed Butterfingers for an added flavor kick. The cookie cups are topped with more crushed butterfingers and chocolate frosting, then garnished with chow mein noodle legs and candy eyes. The noodles don't have much flavor so they basically just give some added crunch and don't really alter the main cookie flavor like a licorice-candy-leg would, which is great!
Scroll down for the step-by-step recipe. You can also visit this post for DIY pics on making cookie cups… and feel free to switch up the flavors if you'd like. These little spiders would taste great in a Snickerdoodle or Peanut Butter cookie cup too!
Oatmeal Scotchie Halloween Spider Cookies
Prep Time: 15 mins
Total time: 1 hour
Effort: Easy
Servings: 24 cookie cups
Cookie Cups:
1 box Krusteaz® Oatmeal Scotchie Cookie Mix
1 egg
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars
For the Spiders:
2 containers chocolate frosting
dry chow mein noodles
½ cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars
candy eyes
Preheat Oven to 350° and lightly grease or line mini muffin pan with paper baking cups.
Prepare cookie batter as directed on the box, then stir in 1/3 cup crushed Butterfinger. Scoop 1 tablespoon of cookie dough at a time and use the palms of your hands to roll it into a ball. Place it in the greased mini muffin pan. Repeat this process until the all of the muffin pan cups are full. Use the back of a teaspoon to pat the dough balls down into the muffin cups.
Bake for 9-10 minutes.
Note: The dough will rise while cooking, then sink back down in the center slightly when pulled from the oven. While cookies are still hot, press the center with the back of a spoon or tiny cup (like a medicine cup!) to form a deeper indentation.
Let cookies completely cool before removing them from the pan.
To create the spiders, press 8 chow mein noodles into the sides of each cookie cup for the "legs". Spoon on a layer of crushed Butterfingers, then top with generously piped chocolate frosting and candy eyes.
This project is brought to you in collaboration with Krusteaz®. As always, all thoughts, designs, and opinions are my own. Thank you so much for supporting the companies that make it possible for me to keep the creative inspiration & ideas coming your way!

After checking and packing field gear at the VCU OAP in the morning, we kicked off the academic side of "Footprints on the James" with a lecture by Ann Woodlief and discussion of her book "In River Time: The Way of the James." Dr. Woodlief joined the VCU English faculty in the early 1970s and published "In River Time" in 1985. This was a pivotal time in the history of the river. Her writing was heavily influenced by American transcendentalist author Henry David Thoreau's book "Walden." Noting this source of inspiration she commented that "I did not have a pond, but I did have a river!" Her book, we learned, had its origins in a VCU Honors class she taught nearly 35 year ago. Like the Footprints class, this course was a multidisciplinary look at the James River watershed. The class provided a forum where she and her students started "making connections" between what they were learning from expert guest lecturers from diverse fields. Dr. Woodlief became interested in viewing history from the lens of the river and capturing how the use of language has shaped (or misshaped) the reality of the river over the years. The resulting book provides a reflection on how the river shaped the peoples and events within the watershed, and how the people, in turn, shaped the river.
In the footsteps of Ann Woodlief

I recently came across an article you had written, "Huguenot Influence on Thomas Jefferson," and found it quite interesting. I am a descendant of Abraham Sublette who came to Manakintown in 1700 aboard the Mary and Ann. My family only recently learned of our ancestors challenging arrival in this country. Your article mentioned that many stories of those early days are still being passed down in some of these Huguenot families. Do you know if these stories are being captured in any way? How would I go about obtaining some of this information?
You have many Sublette cousins! Yes, we have many stories–and some of them may even be true! Check out our website at huguenot-manakin.org.
Hi Ann,
I hope this message finds you in good health and good spirits. I came across some of your work online and wanted to reach out. I am in my last year of a BA in English at Georgia State University in Atlanta, Georgia. Reviewing some of your writing today has reignited my passion for writing. I, too, am greatly fascinated by transcendentalism and Thoreau! I have noticed your interest in family lineage study and was curious if you had looked into the Woodlief line. I'm not sure whether you acquired that name by birth or marriage but as you may have observed I am a Woodlief myself; a descendant of Captain John Woodlief of England who arrived on the ship Margaret in 1609 and headed the Berkeley Hundred settlement in Virginia. If you have not looked into the family I highly suggest you do so as we tends to be a well-documented group and, if nothing else, rather interesting. Thanks for taking the time to read my message and I will be looking forward to your response.
Best regards,
