text: When I was a young mother of three children ages 5, 3 and 2, there was a time when we were very hungry. My children's father was in the Navy and out to sea. Due to some confusion, we did not take proper care of an allotment check, and as a result, we were without money. That meant we had no food. We ate everything in the cupboards. Then a dear friend found out about the situation and with other Navy wives brought boxes of food containing everything from milk to cookies. It was enough to get us through two weeks. Although I was grateful, it was a humbling experience.


text: I painted this for my dad's birthday/father's Day present. And I'm psyched at how it's turned out! After grabbing a DVD of "Travels in Europe with Rick Steves" from the library, an image/concept that stuck in my head was the dervish dancer from the episode on Turkey. So I painted him, and am pretty happy with the result. Happy Birthday, dad!

KENOSHA -- Emilio Guadarrama is accused of nearly a killing a co-worker back in August of 2009, stabbing him 21 times.
Detective John Petersen with the U.S. Marshals recalls the crime scene back in August of 2009. Peterson says 32-year-old Guadarrama walked into a home as a concerned parent, and walked out nearly a murderer.
Peterson says the mother of Guadarrama's children began dating one of his co-workers. Officials say Guadarrama walked into the woman's home at 54th and 19th Avenue, saw the boyfriend babysitting and changing a diaper, and court documents say Guadarrama began to stab the victim with a five-inch blade -- all while young children were in the home.
He's been on the run ever since. U.S. Marshals believe he may be going from Mexico to Wisconsin and staying with relatives in places like Kenosha and Racine.
Guadarrama is described as 5'5" tall, weighing about 165 pounds. He goes by his middle name -- "Juan," but U.S. Marshals believe he may be living under a different name or identity.
If you've seen him, U.S. Marshals want to hear from you at 414-297-3707.

Ozzie's is reborn as Elmwood Cafe
Michael Pearce is sitting at the counter of the old Ozzie's Soda Fountain, sipping hot chocolate and reliving his days as a UC Berkeley undergraduate.
"I used to sit here and watch my laundry spin," Pearce says, pointing at the coin-operated laundry across the street. "I figured if anyone left with it, I could see."
Like many who have passed through Berkeley, Pearce, 46, has fond memories of Ozzie's, the soda shop made popular under longtime owner Charles "Ozzie" Osborne.
So when the Elmwood neighborhood landmark shut its doors for good in 2007 after multiple closures and reincarnations, Pearce put in a bid to save Ozzie's yet again.
Elmwood Cafe opened in March after a yearlong restoration, and Pearce, a first-time cafe owner, is thrilled to have the corner of College Avenue and Russell Street thriving anew.
"Ozzie's has been a part of the community fabric for 89 years," says Pearce, an East Bay native. "When it went under, a lot of retailers were looking at the space and thinking of gutting it. I met with the owner and said, 'Give me a shot at it. Let me save everything and restore it and try to bring it back.' "
Consider Ozzie's reborn, but with a decidedly chic slant. While Pearce kept the original woodwork and postwar stools, the new cafe's menu and decor reflect the increasingly upscale Elmwood neighborhood.
Gone are the BLTs and soda fountains, replaced by fluffy quiches and loose-leaf teas. "Ozzie's Soda" is made with seasonal fruit syrups and seltzer. And indulgences like chocolate truffle brownies and apple tarts fill the counter.
General manager Kara Hammond, cafe manager Rachel Ericsen and pastry chef Mark Chacon are veterans of Alice Waters' Cafe Fanny. Chef Donna Boechler ran Lola's in North Berkeley for more than a decade.
"It's clearly different," says Elmwood resident Jen Pool. "Ozzie's was a joint, and this is a very upscale cafe. But it's very nice that a food facility has gone into the space, and they're trying to have the same neighborly vibe."
Part of that traces back to Pearce's fondness for preservation. He makes his living by supplying vintage instruments to bands - some of the best known in the world, he says - and he's just as eager to talk about the rebuilt Faema E61 espresso machine in the cafe as he is about any of his restored guitars.
At Elmwood Cafe, Pearce and Hammond's husband, Chris, a craftsman, stripped off the 1921 wood paneling to redo the walls, and then put the framing back piece by piece to preserve the original look. They gave the red vinyl stools a thorough cleansing, and retained the flooring near the counter, worn-out patches and all.
They're what Pearce calls "elegant solutions" to preserve Ozzie's while bringing the space up to code. But what marks Elmwood Cafe's ambition might be its business plan: Pearce plans to donate half his profits to charity, with customers voting on which of his pet projects will receive funding.
Current choices include the Bread Project, which focuses on training Berkeley workers who have been laid off to re-enter the workforce; and the Go Green Initiative, which provides scholarships for local high school students.
The cafe has yet to turn a profit, but Pearce says he's ready to begin funding the winning project on his own.
"What we're saying to the customers is, 'Help.' Help us be successful, and in turn, we'll give half of it back," Pearce explains. "Ozzie was quite a revolutionary, and if he were doing this today, I think he'd be looking forward like we are."
While Ozzie's old-timers might balk at paying $3.50 for a latte or $3.75 for a coffee cake muffin, business has been brisk. There's a steady stream of customers in the morning that peaks around lunchtime.
Rui Fernandes, who works nearby, dropped in for a second visit recently. After having a ham sandwich the first time, he went with French onion soup and a latte this time around.
"It was $10, so I'm not sure if I'm making the right choices," Fernandes laughed. "But I'm OK paying a little extra and not going to Starbucks."
Elmwood Cafe: 2900 College Ave. (at Russell Street), Berkeley. (510) 843-1300. Open 7 a.m.-10 p.m. daily.

Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols: Told you so! Microsoft backs off on Metro
It looks like Microsoft has finally been hit by the clue stick of awful Windows 8.x sales often enough that it's learned its lesson. Apparently, in the forthcoming Windows 8.1 update, the user interface (UI) formerly known as Metro will be bypassed, and users will default to starting in the defective, but better than nothing, desktop mode.
I'm going to tell you more about this potential, game-changing move, but first let me get this out: "HA! I told you so!"
Sorry about that. But ever since I started pointing out just how awful Metro was for the desktop, I've been buried by nasty emails from Microsoft shills telling me how wonderful Metro really was. Even as Windows 8's sales slunk below Vista's abysmal sales adoption numbers they kept screaming that Metro was great.
The sad truth is that ever since Metro reared its ugly head, everyone knew its interface was awful for the desktop and that it would fail. Now that Metro has stunk up the Windows desktop like a three-day-dead rat in your bedroom wall, Microsoft finally, finally seems to get it.
Too bad it's so late.
Dumping Metro is a great step toward making Windows 8 more attractive, but the Windows 8 desktop mode still doesn't have a real Start menu. StarDock's Start8 has sold millions of copies of its real Start button replacement thanks to this simple foolish UI mistake. I think Microsoft would be crazy not to give its users a real Start menu again, and it seems that as the new Microsoft leadership moves in, the company will be bringing back a real Start menu.
I don't know if it will be enough. Chromebooks have been picking up steam. AMD and Intel (the top two CPU vendors) and HP and Lenovo (the biggest PC OEMs) are all betting that Android will make a popular desktop operating system. Who would ever have guessed that four of Microsoft's most loyal allies would be doing this even a year ago?
At the same time, if Microsoft does indeed change its ways, it will be leaving developers who drank the Metro Kool-Aid in the lurch. Sure, Metro will still be the primary interface on tablets and smartphones, but have you looked at Windows Phone sales numbers lately? They barely register in the U.S.
As for the tablet market, it's Android and iOS all the way. I've been hearing from some friends of Microsoft that they're sure that Lenovo buying Motorola means good things ahead for Windows on smartphones and tablets. Really? They must be using really good drugs to come to that conclusion.

'Switched At Birth' Recap: Do You Think Daphne Should Have To Dump Liam?
The June 27 episode of ABC Family's 'Switched At Birth' had one clear theme: jealousy!
Bay (Vanessa Marano) and Daphne (Katie Leclerc) were totally at each other's throats this week when Bay found out Daphne is dating her jocky ex, Liam (Charles Michael Davis), and Daphne learned Bay is dating her "older brother" figure, Ty (Blair Redford.) Bay thinks Daphne should've broken up with Liam after hearing he was Bay's "hand-me-down," but I disagree. These girls have been thrown together in a practically impossible situation, and Daphne should not have to concede to Bay's demands. They are both equals and are neither friends nor sisters.
Anyway, Bay has her cutie Ty, so she has no right to control Daphne's love life. I do agree with Regina's (Constance Marie) idea of toning down Daphne and Liam's relationship somewhat to avoid problems between the girls, but I don't think Daphne should have to cut ties with Liam altogether.
It's been bothering me, as it has bothered Bay in the past few episodes, that Daphne seems so perfect. I liked watching the girls face off against each other and I genuinely felt bad for Bay when she saw her whole happy, white-bread family in a picture with Daphne as her replacement. The Kennishes should be more considerate to Bay, especially since she's having trouble fitting in at school.
Speaking of the Kennishes, it seems that Mr. Kennish (D.W. Moffett) got a bit too friendly with Regina's BFF Melody at a benefit raising money for Bay's school. But he avoided a possible conflict with his wife by promising his spouse that she'd "get lucky" that night. Meanwhile, Regina got her own warning from Mrs. Kennish after the ex-husband of one of Kathryn's (Lea Thompson) pals hit on Mrs. Vasquez!
In other news, Daphne's friend Emmett (Sean Berdy) filled in for the drummer in Toby's (Lucas Grabeel) band at the benefit, but became envious of Liam's affection toward Daphne. On top of all that, both the Kennishes and the Vasquezes had to snuff rumors that Daphne is Mr. Kennish's love child!
I believe it was brave of Regina to accept a date with Bruce, the handsome, wealthy man she met at the benefit. He seems like a nice guy, even if he does have a lot of "baggage" from having been married to Kathryn's nasty friend. Regina did what she wanted to do, regardless of ridiculous social rules.
Lastly, I completely disagree with Emmett that Daphne is conforming to hearing culture. I think she is just getting to know her new family and making new connections!
What do YOU think?

Coast Guard searches for missing diver 55 miles off Grand Isle
Coast Guard searches for missing diver 55 miles off Grand Isle
GRAND ISLE, La. —
The Coast Guard is searching for a diver missing 55 miles off Grand Isle.
Petty Officer Carlos Vega says the search began Saturday afternoon for 56-year-old Tim Raines, whose home town Vega does not know.
He says the boat Early Life Crisis was moored to an offshore rig and Raines reportedly was spearfishing nearby when an undertow washed him about 40 feet behind the boat. Raines reportedly went under while swimming toward the boat.
Vega says the crews of a helicopter and an airplane continued the search on Sunday.
He says the dive boat's manager is from Port Allen.

Nothing beats the winter doldrums like throwing a fabulous Mardi Gras theme party! Here are some of our favorite ideas to help you plan a fabulous celebration.
Let the good times roll, or as they say in Louisiana, "Laissez les bon temps rouler!" Mardi Gras is French for "Fat Tuesday" and is the day before Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the Lenten season. However, in New Orleans the Mardi Gras Carnival season starts on January 6th and is celebrated with two months of parades, festivals, and 24 hours a day of great music. Now that's a party! You might choose to have your party on the Saturday before Mardi Gras so everyone can enjoy themselves without worrying about their weekday schedule.
Mardi Gras Theme Party Invitations
Mask Invitations — Costumes and masks are customary at traditional Mardi Gras theme parties. Set the tone for a festive evening by attaching your party information on a decorative tag to beautiful party masks, or send each guest a plain half mask and ask them to decorate it for the party.
Beads and Trinkets Invitations — Encourage outlandish costumes for your party by asking your guests to wear "feathers, fringe, and fabulous finery." Include some fun beads and trinkets with your invitation in a padded envelope.
You can always find lots of great online party invitations with a free RSVP manager at Evite,
Here are some fun Mardi Gras invitations that can help make your party feel special before it even starts!
Mardi Gras Mask Invitations
Masquerade Memories Invitations
**General Invitation Tips** — If you choose to make your own invitations, don't forget to include the date, location, and time of your party. It is also helpful to put the host's name, RSVP by date, and either your phone number or email. Since this is a Mardi Gras party theme, your guests should definitely be encouraged to dress up, or at the very least wear the mask or beads from their invitations!
Mardi Gras Theme Party Decorations
Mardi Gras Party Supplies from Shindigz.com
Mardi Gras is a celebration of excess, so go crazy with your decorations. Traditional colors are purple, green, and gold. Use balloons, streamers, confetti, and swags of gossamer fabric in these colors and you will be well on your way to creating a Mardi Gras atmosphere!
Here are some other decoration ideas:
Accent your tables with feathered Mardi Gras masks
Drape carnival beads over chairs, on tables, and anywhere else you can think of.
Create large banners on butcher paper or poster board with typical Fat Tuesday sayings such as, "Let the Good Times Roll", "Laissez les Bon Temps Rouler!", or "Throw Me Something, Mister!"
Make mock street signs from some of New Orleans' most famous landmarks, such as "Bourbon Street," "St. Charles Avenue," or "The French Quarter."
Put out symbols of New Orleans, like musical instruments, rubber alligators, or travel posters
Use votive candles or lanterns to honor the tradition of the flambeaux (or lanterns) that were used to light the early Carnival parades.
Put out costume jewelry, Mardi Gras tiaras, crowns, scepters, capes, and other royal trappings symbolic of Mardi Gras.
Mardi Gras Theme Party Activities
Keep the good times rolling with some great party activities!
Greet your guests with an assortment of "good" beads. These are bigger and more elaborate than the ones used for decorating and are highly coveted during Mardi Gras. Encourage your guests to trade among themselves or earn them with some "dirty" dancing.
Have a costume contest and give out awards for the best costume, the funniest, the most original, etc.
Consider crowning a King and Queen of Mardi Gras either by random drawing or by vote based on costume, number of beads earned, best dancing, or whatever criteria you choose.
Set up a photo backdrop where your guests can get photographed in their finery. These photos make great souvenirs and treasured remembrances.
Make your party a blow-out ball! Set up a dance area to get things hopping. Mardi Gras theme parties should be loud, raucous, and fun! Make a playlist of great Cajun Zydeco and New Orleans jazz music and let 'er roll. Here are some musical suggestions:
- The Big Easy Soundtrack
- Mardi Gras! by Queen Ida and her Zydeco Band
- All-Time Cajun Zydeco Dance Favorites (various)
- Mardi Gras in New Orleans (various)
- Live at Tipitina's, 1982, Neville Brothers
Mardi Gras Menu
New Orleans is not only famous for its music, but also for its food! Here are some traditional menu options:
- Shrimp Creole
- Jambalaya
- Seafood Gumbo
- Red Beans and Rice
- Po' Boy Sandwiches
- Festive Drinks, especially Hurricanes, Mardi Gras Punch, and New Orleans Gin Fizzes
- King Cake (Iced in Mardi Gras colors and baked with a plastic baby inside. Whoever gets the piece with the baby is predicted to have a year of good luck!)
Party Favors
Send off your guests with a special souvenir of the day. Here are some suggestions for Mardi Gras party favors:
- Party masks (See invitations)
- Beads and Trinkets (see invitations, decorations, and activities)
- Photos (see activities)
- Racy Lingerie or Silk Scarves
- Candy
- Plastic Doubloons

CHICAGO (CBS) — It's official. Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich will serve his 14-year prison sentence at the Colorado facility he had requested.
The Chicago Tribune reported that Blagojevich received word from the U.S. Bureau of Prisons in recent days that he will be assigned to the low-security Federal Correctional Institution Englewood in Littleton, Colo., 15 miles southwest of Denver.
The Englewood facility topped Money Magazine's list of "Best Places to Go to Prison."
LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio's Regine Schlesinger reports
U.S. District Judge James Zagel had agreed to recommend that facility for Blagojevich's prison term, but the final decision was up to federal prison officials.
Larry Warner, the former co-defendant of former Gov. George Ryan, tells the Tribune an adjoining work camp at the prison is surrounded by beautiful woods and wildlife, but Blagojevich likely won't get much of a chance to see any of that unless he is transferred from the prison to the camp.
The judge has also agreed to recommend that Blagojevich be enrolled in a substance abuse program while he's behind bars. If he goes through the program, he could cut his sentence by as much as a year.
The Chicago Sun-Times has reported that Blagojevich developed a drinking problem as he was going through his federal trial on corruption charges. He was convicted of 18 corruption counts after two trials and, last December, he was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
Blagojevich's attorney, Sheldon Sorosky, tells WBBM Newsradio there is no truth to the claim that the deposed governor's wife, Patti, and his two daughters, plan to move to Colorado to be closer to him.

Rumors and speculations are now swirling around the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Sacramento Kings who are reportedly having trade talks involving Rudy Gay and Iman Shumpert.
Rudy Gay has been linked in various trade rumors this offseason. The 30-year-old small forward expressed his frustration over the Kings' management with the way they were handling the trade rumors surrounding him. Also, Gay was disappointed with the Kings' selections in the recent NBA draft.
Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical reported that Rudy Gay informed the Sacramento Kings about his plan to exercise his player option next summer and become a free agent. This means that he is seriously considering to leave the Kings.
ALSO READ: Knicks acquiring Greg Monroe for Kyle O'Quinn and future draft picks
Kings owner Vivek Ranadive is still hoping that Rudy Gay will change his mind and stay in Sacramento. However, it seems like the 30-year-old small forward has already made up his mind. With this, it will be best for the Kings to consider trading him now than lose him next summer without getting anything in return.
Rudy Gay is a prolific scorer and could still be considered as an attractive trade asset. In the past months, there were rumors that the Sacramento Kings were interested in acquiring Iman Shumpert of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Should they trade Gay for Shumpert?
ALSO READ: Hawks looking to trade Paul Millsap to Cavs, Kevin Love to Thunder?
Iman Shumpert has been involved in DUI issue last month. There are speculations that the Cavaliers are considering to trade him not because of the case he is facing but because of his poor performance last season. Though the Cavs won their first championship title, Shumpert only averaged 5.8 points on 37 percent shooting.
"Several opposing team executives told Amico Hoops earlier this summer the Cavs had called to explore potential trade packages centered on Shumpert, a 6-foot-5 reserve." Amico Hoops founder Sam Amico said.
The Kings could engage in a trade deal to acquire Iman Shumpert from the Cavaliers. With the Cavaliers goal to defend their title, adding a solid scorer like Rudy Gay will be a good move. Gay could be a backup for LeBron James.
The problem is the Cavaliers could not straight swap Iman Shumpert for Rudy Gay. They should add some more piece to make the deal successful. If this trade succeeds, it will help both teams in filling up the needs to improve on their roster.

Learning and Earning with HubPages
HubPages: The Next Step
If you haven't signed up with HubPages, do it right now. This is not only one of the most well-known writing sites for residual income, but it is also a reputable and well-structured one built on great content. My journey with HubPages so far has been short, but every step that I've taken has been a learning experience–and that's saying a lot after years of having worked and written online.
The first thing you need to do on HubPages, in order to start earning revenue, is to set up your Google AdSense account. This is one of the key ways in which you will earn through HubPages' Earning Program. Yet, there is no need to stress about what may otherwise seem like a daunting challenge. The site makes it relatively easy to set up your Google AdSense account. Indeed, it has links to all of its earning platforms directly on your account page, making it simple for you to become part of an essential online earning program. I remember once being scared to death of the words 'Google AdSense' and the likelihood of being rejected, but HubPages' reputation and easy-to-navigate website truly makes the challenge an effortless one.
Moreover, HubPages helps you set up your Google Analytics account in order to keep track of your pageviews and to access detailed reports about the performance of your online writing. And one of the most interesting things that I've found about HubPages is that you can–with the same effort that it takes for the above two platforms–open up Amazon and eBay affiliate accounts, which you can then use to include affiliate links in your articles. The image below is a small sample of the useful information that can be found on HubPages' FAQ section.
Making the Objective Clear
The purpose of this article is not to break down exactly how to write a 'Hub' or to navigate HubPages, but rather to outline the learning benefits that can come with opening a writer's account on HubPages. Beyond the steps that you'll take to sign up with the multiple earning programs, the knowledge that you get when you look at the prerequisites for writing a great hub really help you understand what attracts users and how to make your content search engine friendly. Indeed, a sight like this is not just useful for beginners but also for people who have been writing for a long time. HubPages gives you access to structure, and to a structure that they have put research into; into its effectiveness and into determining the most successful approach.
I know it's hard to start over with a new writing site, but the gains in the long-term engulf the few challenges at the beginning. So, I can't encourage you enough. Sign up, take a look around, and see what goes into making a Hub. Expand your basket of online writing sites, expand your knowledge of how to make more online revenue, and expand your knowledge of how to write better content.

The crime in this case was a legitimate expression of free speech that was rendered illegal by a law that has been supported by both Liberals and New Democrats.
What are they afraid of?
Liberal and New Democrat MLAs are conspiring in silence to ignore an outrageous assault on free speech in this province. The attack is in the form of a $3.2-million fine levied by Elections BC against the B.C. Government and Service Employees' Union.
The fine is one of, if not the largest, ever assessed in B.C. for any crime or misdemeanour and by far the largest for any electoral misdeed.
The crime in this case was a legitimate expression of free speech that was rendered illegal by a law that has been supported by both Liberals and New Democrats in various forms. The law limits advertising by so-called third parties during and before general elections and as in this case, during byelections.
The version now in place replaces one that was previously struck down by the courts and is itself facing another review.
As we have argued before, the limits are a pointless assault on free speech, pointless because there is no evidence that unlimited advertising can illegitimately influence the outcome of an election.
The first gag law was brought in by the New Democrats in 1995. Their law was amended and expanded by the Liberals to include the period before an election is officially called, an issue that arose from the introduction of fixed election dates.
Among other reasons, that law was struck down for limiting debate on issues that might be before the legislature during the time the extended pre-campaign restrictions were in place.
The BCGEU was penalized for continuing an ad campaign that had started before the byelection was called. The ads were deemed to be election advertising under the broad definition brought in by the Liberals even though they were designed to support the union's bargaining position during contract negotiations with the government and were simply overtaken by the election call.
The legislature was sitting at the time, potentially discussing issues that the union was being told it could no longer comment on publicly.
Using the punitive formula contained in the legislation, which assesses penalties for third parties that overspend at five times the rate candidates who overspend are penalized, Elections BC ordered the BCGEU to pay a $3.2-million fine for running ads for three days in two ridings.
The union has quite reasonably gone to court to ask for relief from what is demonstrably a penalty that is completely out of proportion to the action for which it is being assessed.
The penalty levied against the BCGEU is the first assessed under the gag law since it was brought in by the NDP and should be a rallying cry against the legislation itself.
Even if they fail to understand that limiting election advertising is a pointless assault on free speech, MLAs from all parties should at the very least be concerned that their legislation has resulted in such an outrageous penalty.
They should immediately pledge to limit the definition of what constitutes election advertising, a definition that a former chief elections officer observed makes it difficult to determine what is or is not included.
They should amend the penalty provisions, so that nothing so crushing as the $3.2 million levied against the BCGEU can even be considered for such a trifling offence.
Better yet, they should throw out the entire legislation. Free speech is nothing to fear.

Gardening is a hobby that is time consuming and can get expensive. But it doesn't have to cost a lot. There are many ways to have a beautiful garden without spending much money. Shoestring gardening can be done easily, following these simple tips and gardening how-to's.Most of my garden was created by shoestring gardening. I grew some perennials and biennials from seeds. All of our Purple Cone Flowers (Echinacea) were grown from one packet of seed, which took a little longer but I sure got a lot of plants for $1.89. The Foxglove (Digitalis) growing all through our garden came from one seed packet. Both of these plants reseed themselves, as do many other beautiful flowers.Some of the other flowers I've grown from seeds are Delphiniums, Zinnias, Cosmos and Hollyhocks. This is just one way to have plenty of flowers without spending a lot of money.Growing fresh vegetables from seed is super easy and cheap, cheap, cheap. Check out more ways to garden on a shoestring and have a beautiful, productive garden.
Thank you and happy planting!

Vegetable gardens are popping up all over the place. Next summer, notice how many people are carving out a little portion of their yard to start a garden to grow some of their own food. I remember back in the 40′s and 50′s small kitchen gardens were the norm, along with a few fruit trees.It really doesn't take much space to grow a few vegetables, vegetables that tastes so much better than anything you can buy in the store. The good news is that it doesn't take a lot of know how either. A little research on the things you want to grow, and you will be a gardener before you know it. If you happen to live where there really is no room for a garden, then grow some things in containers. The containers don't have to be fancy, they just have to be big enough that the roots will have plenty of room and big enough that there is plenty of soil so that it doesn't need watering every hour. Good drainage is a must. Boards nailed together to make grow boxes, or barrels cut in half and holes drilled in the bottom will work.Growing your own vegetables can be a fun family project. Let the kids choose vegetables to plant and help them to learn how to take care of their own plants. I noticed that my children ate vegetables out of the garden so much better than ones from the freezer. I think it was because they had part in planting, weeding, watering and harvesting them.Times are tough for a lot of families right now and buying a few packets of seeds might be a really good investment. As the winter months drag on and we plan for the spring and summer, consider giving the vegetable garden a shot.Raised beds in in front of grape vines on fence in AugustEven though I've been gardening for so many years, it still amazes me that we can take a little seed, put it in the dirt, and it will make food for us. Isn't that just amazing?

I finally made it to the garden center to select the seeds for our raised-bed vegetable garden. We have 3 beds that measure 16′x4′. One is located in the back yard by the peach trees, and two are in the side yard, on the other side of the driveway.
We usually grow the peas and lettuce in the side yard beds but this year I'm moving them to the raised bed in the back yard, mainly for convenience sake. It's easier to dash out the back door and pick peas and lettuce, it's much closer to my kitchen. The corn and tomatoes will go out in the beds in the side yard.
As you can see from the picture, I have quite a variety that I plan on growing this year. All have done well before, and I really look forward to having them much closer to the kitchen.
Almost all of the ones in the picture need to be planted soon and I'll be trying to get them all planted today. We are in zone 6, so the time for planting early veggies in your zone may vary. Check the seed packet for that info.
The beans, squash and cucumber will go in later, when the soil warms up a little. I'm planting two kinds of peas, regular English peas and Sugar Snap Peas. Also, I'm planting 3 kinds of lettuce, for variety.
I did get a few packets of flower seeds, but I save so many seeds from my annuals each year that I don't really need to buy many of those.
The timing is perfect for planting tomorrow because it's suppose to rain over the weekend, which will water the seeds in really well and give them a good start. Also, I'll be soaking the peas seeds overnight to give them a little head start.
If you want a really good selection of seeds, now's the time to get to the garden center and make your selections.

Many people, who have never gardened before, are considering growing their own food this year and backyard vegetable gardens are becoming quite popular. If you're reading this, then likely you are already a gardener, but if not, and you want to start a garden, don't be intimidated.It's easy, if you follow these simple steps:

Nose reshaping, known as Rhinoplasty, is one of the longest established and most commonly requested cosmetic procedure. It is popular with men and women aged over 18 years.
This operation alters the size and/or shape of the nose to create a new profile and bring it into proportion with the rest of the facial contours. As well as being requested for cosmetic reasons, it can also be used to correct breathing issues and to help alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnoea.
We are proud to have at our clinic some of the most experienced Consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons in the UK, specialised in nose jobs.
Nose reshaping is for anyone who feels that their nose is out of proportion to other facial features, common problems include:
- A bump on the nose
- Particularly flared nostrils
- Previous injury to the nose making it bumpy or out of shape
- Nose appearing to large for the face- too wide or long
- The tip of the nose drooping
As a day case surgery or overnight stay at the hospital, the operation takes about an hour, depending on the complexity of the procedure. It is carried out through incisions made inside the nose, which leave no visible scars. In some cases, where the width or flare of the nostrils is being reduced, small outside incisions are used. In these cases the incisions will be made where possible in natural crease lines of the nose to conceal scarring.
The procedure involves removing, shifting or altering the underlying bone and cartilaginous structure. If the nose has a prominent hump, bone and cartilage can be removed to reduce the size of the nose. If the nose is too wide it can be narrowed, or if it is bent to one side it can be straightened.
The modification of the nose could concern part or all of the elements of the infrastructure; the point of the nose, the nostrils, the bridge of the nose and the nasal septum. The modification of one of these elements can often lead to the change of another. When this occurs the entire visual perception of the nose is greatly improved with only a relatively minor adjustment.
There are variations on standard Rhinoplasty such as a Septo Rhinoplasty. This is when the internal bone (septum) is deviated; often leading to an obstruction to breathing and this can be corrected at the same time as altering the shape. If the nose has a bulbous tip and only cartilage needs removing there is a lesser procedure known as a Rhino Tip.
A good candidate for nose surgery can be anyone who is unhappy with their noses either from birth, injury or as a result of aging. If you are dissatisfied with your nose appearance, for example it is too large compared to other parts of your face, too wide when looking at it in a front view, there is a bump along the bridge of the nose, the nose is too small, crooked or too flat, you are having sinus or other breathing problems – then you are a potential candidate. Rhinoplasty patient often improve the overall harmony of their faces, as well as how the particular area looks like.

"He sheds light on this community every day. He is our sunshine," said Randi Banks, who studies the Bible with Smith.
Rube Smith has dedicated his life to the children -- all children. It all started in his Carson home. Rube holds Bible study at home every Wednesday, but the impact he has on this community goes far beyond his garage.
"I came and it was like life-changing," said Banks. "He showed us how to open up and how to respect and love others even though stuff goes on around here, and you may not like stuff that happens to you, but he's like, 'Respect and love them.'"
"This is not something that you pick up on the weekend. Since I live here, it is 24-7. They know they can call me anytime and I will be here," said Rube.
And he is there for everyone. Generations of families have passed through the Smith home. Rube has been a steady figure in his neighbors' lives, helping with family counseling, a warm meal, or simply being the one to show up at an afterschool program. His home is a safe haven for foster children and for single mothers struggling to make ends meet.
"His phone is blowing up all the time. If someone needs money for a bus pass they are going to call him, and hook or crook, he is making it happen," said Gina Smith, Rube's wife.
When possible, Rube takes the children on field trips so they can see what the world has to offer.
"I have exhausted my funds over the years," said Rube. "When it comes to a kid and a bill: later bill. That's just the way it is. Bad credit. It's just the way it has to be."
He's making a difference one child at a time.
"There used to be a lot of cursing, and people like little kids sagging and gangbanging and all that type of stuff but all that stuff is stopping, slowly but surely, and he's putting God in their lives," said Bible study member Tyree Evans.
So how did they feel when they heard that Rube was the recipient of the Jefferson Award?
"Everybody said, 'Finally.' He needed to be recognized even though he doesn't think so, but we feel like it's important, because he has really helped the whole community and other people outside the community also," said Randi Banks.

|RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful strategy for studying the phenotypic consequences of reduced gene expression levels in model systems. To develop a method for the rapid characterization of the developmental consequences of gene dysregulation, we tested the use of RNAi for "transient transgenic" knockdown of mRNA in mouse embryos. These methods included lentiviral infection as well as transposition using the Sleeping Beauty (SB) and PiggyBac (PB) transposable element systems. This approach can be useful for phenotypic validation of putative mutant loci, as we demonstrate by confirming that knockdown of Prdm16 phenocopies the ENU-induced cleft palate (CP) mutant, csp1. This strategy is attractive as an alternative to gene targeting in embryonic stem cells, as it is simple and yields phenotypic information in a matter of weeks. Of the three methodologies tested, the PB transposon system produced high numbers of transgenic embryos with the expected phenotype, demonstrating its utility as a screening method.

Posted on 05/12/2014 8:54:54 PM PDT by SunkenCiv
Explanation: The largest canyon in the Solar System cuts a wide swath across the face of Mars. Named Valles Marineris, the grand valley extends over 3,000 kilometers long, spans as much as 600 kilometers across, and delves as much as 8 kilometers deep. By comparison, the Earth's Grand Canyon in Arizona, USA is 800 kilometers long, 30 kilometers across, and 1.8 kilometers deep. The origin of the Valles Marineris remains unknown, although a leading hypothesis holds that it started as a crack billions of years ago as the planet cooled. Several geologic processes have been identified in the canyon. The above mosaic was created from over 100 images of Mars taken by Viking Orbiters in the 1970s.

Rockwood 2000 plans to award a $1,000 scholarship this year to a Rockwood High School senior.
This program was established to assist Rockwood High School students attend college or vocational school.
Although Rockwood 2000 wishes to recognize academic achievement, the scholarship's purpose is to also recognize leadership, integrity and community involvement.
An application for this scholarship can be obtained from the Guidance Counselor at Rockwood High School.
Roane State Community College's commencement ceremonies will be May 6-7.
Both events, to be in the gym on the main campus in Roane County, will be equal in presentation.
The May 6 ceremony starts at 7 p.m. It is for recipients of the Associate of Applied Science degree in nursing, recipients of AAS degrees in allied health sciences, and for recipients of certificates in allied health sciences.
Mike Belbeck, president and chief administrative officer of Methodist Medical Center, Oak Ridge, will be the speaker.
Roane State Community College's music department will perform Broadway show tunes, classic TV theme songs and hits from the popular TV series "Glee" on April 29 and May 1.
Both performances will be in the theater on the main campus in Roane County.
The April 29 concert begins at 7 p.m., and the May 1 concert starts at 3 p.m.
A $10 donation is suggested for admission.
The Celebration Singers will perform medleys from Cole Porter and Stephen Sondheim and other Broadway selections.
Roane State Community College's international students recently visited the Tennessee State Capitol in Nashville to watch government leaders first-hand.
"One thing I found interesting is how quickly they make decisions," said student Elomar Souza of Brazil. "I attended committee meetings back home, and they drag and drag."
The students toured the capitol building, watched committee hearings and met state legislators. Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam and state Sen. Ken Yager had their photo taken with the students.
Roane County Executive Ron Woody has designated April 21 as Student Government Day 2011.
The annual event gives public high school students in Roane County an opportunity to spend time with officials they were selected to represent.
"This event is a great opportunity for our students to see their county government at work," Woody said. "We must create interest in our government in order to stimulate the next generation of leadership for our county."
Avery Trace Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, recently presented its 2010-11 Good Citizens honor to four high school students in Roane County.
This year's recipients are:
• Harriman High — Emily Kaitlin Crabtree, daughter of Tim and Kim Crabtree.
• Midway High — Taylor Shannon Narramore, daughter of Barry and April Narramore.
More than 550 juniors from all five Roane County high schools will take part in a Career Exploration Day from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m today, April 8, at Roane State Community College.
Students will be professionally dressed and prepared with résumés, notepads and questions for representatives from 49 different businesses to talk about their futures.
This is the third year for the joint effort between Roane County Chamber of Commerce's Education Affairs Committee and Roane County Schools.
