Farms of Environmental Distinction
Marion Soil and Water Conservation District (MSWCD) is sponsoring the Farms of Environmental Distinction Program to farm owners of Marion County. The purpose of the Farms of Environmental Distinction Program will be to educate Marion County farm owners of the importance of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and providing recognition to farms who have implemented BMPs resulting in a decrease or elimination of negative impacts to the environment. The program is a coalition of agencies, organizations and individuals interested in protecting the environment through education. The program has no regulatory authority and its only interest is to help farm owners improve their management practices.
Farms who are actively participating in practices such as covering manure piles, locating manure piles away from surface water and wells, composting, rotating pastures, installing fencing to keep horses out of streams and wetlands, and utilizing proper soil management and conservative fertilization may be eligible for the award. By participating in this program we will provide you with the information needed to meet the guidelines of any currently proposed BMP regulations.
Marion Soil and Water Conservation Districts through USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service is now accepting applications for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) and their other incentives programs. These cost-share programs, funded by the new Farm Bill, offer funding to implement many of the practices mentioned above.
For additional information on any of the programs mentioned please contact Marion Soil and Water Conservation District at (352) 414-7808.

Bryan Comer
Washington, DC
Environmental Policy Think Tank
Researcher, International Council on Clean Transportation
Degree Program:
MS, Science, Technology and Public Policy
"Professionally, the policy analysis series of courses most prepared me for life after RIT. In that series, I developed analytical skills that are applicable to nearly any public policy problem."
What is your current job?
I study ways to reduce the environmental and human health impacts of air pollution and greenhouse gases from ships and ports. My research influences policymaking at the International Maritime Organization, the specialized UN agency that regulates international shipping. My work cuts across the fields of policy analysis, program evaluation, economics, and public health.
Why did you choose to major in Public Policy/STSPP?
Originally, I was interested in politics, but I was interested in learning more about environmental and energy policy. Once in the Public Policy program, I learned that I could produce technically sound policy analysis that could be used to influence environmental policy decision-making. That appealed to me because I wanted to do work that had a real-world impact. Public policy allows for that.
Tell us about how your RIT experience, particularly your experience in the Public Policy Program, influenced your life personally and professionally?
The faculty and staff of the Public Policy department changed my life. The Public Policy Program is full of talented, passionate people that encouraged me to continue my education and showed me that policy analysis, combined with persuasive communication, can change the world. The professional and personal connections I made while at RIT are the reason why I have my dream job and why I live in an exciting and vibrant city like D.C.
How has a liberal arts education at a technology-focused university set you apart from your peers and colleagues?
When I was applying for my current job, I used the fact that I earned liberal arts degrees at a technology-focused school as a major selling point. I explained that at RIT, you develop solid technical analytical skills with a focus on applying those skills to solve real-world problems. Also, working with leaders in the field of environmental transportation policy, such as Dean James J. Winebrake set me apart.
What experience most prepared you for life after RIT (i.e. class, faculty/staff member, extracurricular activity, etc.)?
Professionally, the policy analysis series of courses most prepared me for life after RIT. In that series, I developed analytical skills that are applicable to nearly any public policy problem. Additionally, the connections I forged with RIT faculty and staff have opened many doors for me. I still interact regularly with RIT faculty and staff more than 8 years after graduating.
What were you involved in outside of the classroom at RIT?
When I started at RIT in 2003, one was hard pressed to find an orange T-shirt in the bookstore; now, school spirit flourishes. One reason is our perennially successful Division I ice hockey teams. I'm happiest when I'm at an RIT Hockey game. I still go to at least one game per year, usually the Homecoming Game at Blue Cross Arena in downtown Rochester.
What challenges and successes have you experience up to this point in your career?
A major challenge was trying to get a job in public policy after I graduated in 2009. The global financial crisis meant that social science positions were scarce. After a year of doing ad hoc policy analysis consulting work, I decided to go back to grad school and earn a PhD in Environmental Science and Policy at SUNY-ESF. During this time, I did four fellowships (akin to RIT's co-op program), including stints at NOAA's Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab in Ann Arbor, the Great Lakes Commission in Ann Arbor, and the International Council on Clean Transportation in Washington, D.C. These fellowships helped me gain valuable real-world experience and the last fellowship led to full employment.
If you could go back to graduation day what advice would you give yourself?
Build your personal and professional networks deliberately. Be a friendly, cheerful, and reliable and you'll find that these connections will elevate you farther than you could make it alone.

I've always been very passionate about exposing the horrific brutality of the fur industry and showing others that there are countless natural alternatives to wearing fur. Fur is not meant to be worn by humans. Fur-Bearing animals were given their fur to keep them warm and mankind was given natural resources and the capability to utilize these natural resources, so that we wouldn't have the need to torture innocent animals for their fur.
The Fur-Bearers is an amazing group of people, working hard to expose and put an end to the commercial fur trade, ban leg holds, traps and snares, and working to introduce ways we can Co-Exist with wildlife that doesn't involve inhumane practices.
The Fur-Bearer Defenders rely solely on donations and I'm honored to be able to help spread the #MakeFurHistory message, while donating a portion of sales from this Collection back to the Fur-Bearer Defenders, to help aid in this fight to protect innocent animals from the unnecessary, barbaric torture and painfully slow deaths they are subjected to at the hand of mankind for the use of their fur.
For more info on Furbearer Defenders and the work they are doing to help wildlife and
work towards a fur free, cruelty free world...

As the organiser for our official Golf4Fun Tournament Series, unveiling the yearly tournament sponsors is one of my favourite tasks. This year support for our non-profit golfing group is higher than ever and I am pleased to see so many great Swiss company names endorsing our group by being official Sponsors and Partner.
From everyone at Golf4Fun, let me take this opportunity to thank you for your support – without your support the tournament series, while still being fun would not have so many great prizes to give away to those who participate in our events.
New also in 2013, many of our official Golf4Fun Tournament Sponsors will also be Golf4Fun Partners, giving all members (and not just those who win prizes at the tournaments!) access to great value deals. Check out our Partner Section for full details of all the great deals now available in 2013 for Golf4Fun members!

Where's there is smoke is there always fire? UsWeekly's latest issue accuses Ben Affleck of taking up with the family nanny while he and Jennifer Garner were on a secret 10-month trial break (timing unclear). But Affleck's camp released a statement saying that the Oscar winner in no way, shape or form had anything going on with 28-year-old Christine Ouzounian. Hmm. Even though the caregiver was reportedly fired, she was seen out with the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice star, 42, in Los Angeles on July 17, roughly two weeks after he and Garner announced their breakup.
An autopsy shows the 18-year-old daughter of the stars of the Queen of Versailles documentary who had struggled with an addiction to a drug used to control her seizures died last month of an accidental overdose. A report released Wednesday by the Orange County Medical Examiner's Office concluded that Victoria Siegel's death was the result of methadone and sertraline toxicity. The family's attorney said last month that Siegel had previously undergone voluntary rehabilitation to shake her dependence on prescribed medication to control seizures.
Shakira and pro soccer player Gerard Pique may have another athlete in the family. On Wednesday, Shakira, 38, posted a video to Twitter and Facebook of the couple's youngest child, Sasha, who was born in January, in which she appears holding her son in front of a soccer ball. "Kick," the Colombian star says repeatedly to the baby boy, who raises his leg and succeeds on the first try. The 12-second video racked up almost 2 million views on Facebook in an hour.
What does it take to make Jimmy Kimmel cry? The death of Cecil the Lion, apparently. On Tuesday, the comedian lashed out at Walter Palmer, the formerly anonymous Minnesota dentist who became the scourge of the Internet for his reported role in the poaching of Cecil, a much-beloved lion and major tourist draw at Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe.
Americans and Brits: We just don't share the same sense of humor. So says Cara Delevingne, who took to Twitter on Wednesday to defend an awkward satellite interview with Good Morning Sacramento the day prior. Promoting the film of the novel Paper Towns, Cara was asked if she read the book to prepare. Replying with a frowny face, she said she hadn't: "No, I never read the book or the script actually. I kind of winged it." It all went downhill from there, with one reporter saying she sounded "irritated" and "needed a nap."

Video games have been enjoyed for some time now.If you are a gamer, you need to learn a few things about this increasingly popular form of entertainment.Read on for a number of great video games. If you're buying a game for a gift, you may want to look into what each ESRB rating means. This rating is going to tell you the age range that is deemed appropriate for the particular game. It can ultimately help you figure out whether you want to purchase the game.
If your kid wants a certain game, pay attention to the ESRB rating. This will give you the game has in it so you're sure you're not giving the kid something too violent. It can help you determine whether you want to buy the game.
Try gun mayhem redux.Save your games in a few files. Sometimes you should put it into a new slot.You may want to be able to go back in the future that you would like to resume your game from a different point. This can't be accomplished if you always save at the same spot.
If your child is using a console that has online capabilities, make sure the family-safe settings are enabled for their protection. This lets you filter what your child will not be exposed to it. You can also consider blocking the online chat online.
Ask the game store for recommendations on games that you might like. It is hard to keep up with the new releases even if you can tell them what games you already enjoy.The employee at the store should know enough to give you options suited for you.
Play video games with your children. This can be a great way to spend some quality family-time together. Sharing interests with your kids like this can also create great way to get the conversation flowing. You can spend time with their skill development
Make sure to take multiple breaks when you don't want to get up from. You can really get sucked into a game way if you don't step away from time to time. Playing and practicing a game is something that should only be fun. If you think you're addicted to a video game, socializing or other activities, then it is time to step away from the game and reassess what it means to you.
Don't allow kids to play any game before you check its rating first. Some games contain violence or other adult themes so they have 18+ rating. It is inappropriate to allow small children to play these sorts of game. Violent video games can give children nightmares in children.
Don't play video games for more than a few hours or less.Gaming can be addictive, and people that do get addicted are out there, so be careful of that. Limit the amount of time you play games to two or three hours a day. If you play more than that, take a break regularly.
Don't play all day – limit it to two hours each day. You can become addicted to gaming, so actively take steps to avoid it. Try to stick to playing video games for only a few hours every day. If you decide to surpass that limit, take a break every few hours.
A video connection serves a lot of benefits when you are playing. A lot of the gaming systems will rely on several cables that can be better than others. What kind of cable do you to use if your monitor or TV can take different types of cables? If those are not an option, there are several options available including S-Video, Composite and RCA connections. Coaxial cable remains the most popular choice due to it's general availability, but they're the lowest quality. Use it as a connector in cases where you have no other solution.
If you have a kid and they get too aggressive when they play too many video games, a time out is in order.
Video games are as popular now as they were in the past. It is unbelievable to see their evolution. Only in the imagination is known what future video games are going to be like. It will be interesting to see what types of gaming systems you will be enjoying in the future.

LONDON, ON--(Marketwire - January 31, 2011) - With Valentine's Day nearly here, Book By You® today announced the launch of its first personalized same-sex romance books for gay and lesbian couples. With the release of Hot Blooded (for men) and Seduction Games (for women), Book By You now offers a diverse range of personalized romance novels perfect for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, weddings, birthdays, or any special event.
Customers co-author their novels by visiting the Book By You website and completing the character questionnaire. Each book has over 25 features to personalize, including the heroine, hero, best friends, and features such as hair length color, eye color, body type, and even a dog or cat! Customers can also upload a picture for the back cover of their beautifully bound, 190 to 200-page hardcover or paperback editions.
In Hot Blooded, our two heroes take on the classic dark fantasy roles of an immortal vampire and the mortal man who tantalizes him. Torn between desire and the knowledge that giving in to temptation means certain doom for both, our tortured duo struggle to fight their sizzling chemistry… but destiny has some unusual twists in store!
In Seduction Games, our heroines are contestants on a reality TV game show. As they clash and compete for a million dollar prize, the heat of the tropical sun and constant spotlight of the TV cameras can't compare to the heat between these rival contestants. From brainteasing puzzles to physical challenges, the women fight to win -- but lose the fight against their desire for each other. Are their feelings real, or is it just part of a game?

text: Le Petit Jardin - About Us About UsLe Petit Jardin is a unique preschool program that combines loving childcare with daily experiences in an around the French and Francophone cultures. Children are introduced to sounds and words of the French language through songs, nursery rhymes, stories and general everyday interactions. As children are exceptional language learners by nature, this total-immersion environment enables them to quickly become familiar with French and to begin to know how to use it for themselves. CurriculumOur days here at preschool are rooted in the idea that a child learns through play and exploration! We lead children each day through a fun variety of arts and crafts, story time and library visits (Thursdays), puppet play, classical dance (ballet - Tuesdays/Wednesdays), cooking (Mondays/Wednesdays), science experiments, Music (Fridays) outdoor play and free play time. These experiences will be guided completely in French to familiarize children with numbers, letters, colors, shapes and other early vocabulary. Popular childhood songs and nursery rhymes from France will soon become some of your child's favorites and hopefully they will teach them to you at home! Children explore the language through the songs, games and holiday celebrations of France as well as other Francophone communities. Simple introduction to the French Islands, Ivory Coast, and Quebec will help to give a broader cultural connection to the French language as well as to the wide world we live in. Teacher AmbiDirectorAmber Smith-Lopata is Founder, Director and Lead Teacher at Le Petit Jardin. Outside of being a mother of three young boys, her experiences include many years as an au-pair, chaperone and board member for F.A.C.E. (French American Cultural Exchange Program), and primary grades teacher's assistant.

She began caring for newborns at age fifteen alongside her mother who worked in a post-partum rehabilitation retreat form new moms and babies in northern France.

Anne has been a full-time nanny, has worked at the Lycée Français La Pérouse and now holds her certificate in Early Childhood Education from College of Marin!

Teacher CandicePiaf ClasseCandice is a teacher is our Piaf class! She has spent the majority of her life caring for others and is naturally gifted at it! She grew up in Zululand, South Africa, on the tea farm her that father tended. It was in a remote location and the nearest big town was quite far away, so she learned to thoroughly care for everything and everyone around her. Her mother and her grandmother were both very advanced and talented seamstresses and so Candice also inherited that skill from a very young age. "Ever since I was 5 years old I wanted to be a dress designer," she has said. After Candice arrived in California as an au-pair in 1997, she went onto study at the Art Institute of San Francisco, "I sort of lost that dream (while there) … I found I wasn't that competitive (enough for it), so I figured maybe I'd be better as a teacher." Shortly after becoming a mother she opened her own family daycare, The Tot School of San Anselmo. Candice also continued her education and received her ECE Certificate from the College of Marin. After 13 successful years of caring for children in her own home, Candice decided to close The Tot School and open a new business that would allow her to diversify her time between her two beloved talents – teaching and sewing! When Candice isn't teaching little ones at LPJ you will find her designing and teaching creative-sewing classes for children of all ages and skill levels at The Lost Art Sewing School!.Her many talents shine bright at our preschool and are appreciated and admired by all children and parents alike!
