We're on our way!!! Three cheers to American Airlines for changing our flights to keep us away from the hurricane mess. Our original flights connected in New Orleans. American changed them to a non-stop Charlotte to Los Angeles.
Left home at 3AM this morning for Charlotte. Turned in the cheap ($25) Dollar Rent-a-car at the Charlotte airport at 5:30AM. Easy-peasy. Nice set-up, you just walk to the terminal building after turning in your rental car. (we'd never used a rental car at CLT).
Checked in at the American desk - the kind counter person got our bags checked all the way to Darwin. This is nice since the last flight is on Quantas Airlines.
Since we're first class - we get to use the Admirals club lounge.....
So we headed there for coffee and a little snack since we'd been up since 2AM! Nice coffee bar and continental breakfast items. Cool espresso machine that ground the coffee beans and made your coffee automatically while you waited. All free of charge, of course!
We had a little nibble - but we knew that we'd ordered omelettes with brie on our flight, so didn't over-do. Before we knew it, the 7AM boarding time was called - off to Los Angeles!!
I will pause here and vent a little. First "Fail" of the trip! I bought a brand new 64GB Scandisk brand-name memory card for my camera. Just for this trip. I wanted to be able to take and save lots and lots of photos, of course.
The photos you're seeing here are from my cell phone.....I took several in-flight photos with my camera. When I tried to upload them, I got an error message. Nothing I could do would make it work. Now it's asking me if I want to "format" the disk. Bummer!!! Not cool! I specifically bought the brand-name one just to be sure it would be good.
So, I'm pretty disappointed, but will buy a new card when we get to Australia. Meanwhile, you'll just have to suffer with cell phone quality photos!
Uneventful flight non-stop to LA - landed around 10AM PDT....we're at the Admirals Club there - very nice but crowded.
Teresa would LOVE the food - vegan and really wonderful!
So, we're just hanging at the Admirals Club - we may take an Uber ride out to the beach after while since we have a very long layover (over 12 hours!!) Our flight to Sydney leaves at 11PM PDT - or 2AM east coast time!

Where does it start? FEAR.
At what age? At what circumstance? At what scenario?
Does fear come from rejection? From failure?
Fear paralyzes. Fear causes inaction.
No matter what aspect of your life, the ability to overcome fear will give you the greatest opportunity and the ultimate sense of freedom. Look at adrenaline junkies.
People jumping out of planes. Throwing themselves off of buildings. Surfing 30? waves. Bungee jumping off of bridges.
These people look fear in the eye. They know the consequences. They know that death could be an outcome, yet….
They follow through. They, for the lack of a better word…MOVE!!! So many day to day situations that are not nearly this extreme of life and death, (although we might like to think they are) paralyze us from being our best. From reaching the success we deserve and desire. We are paralyzed, unable to reach ultimate freedom.
Do these little things that we run across each day really deserve to have the power to do that? Should the fear of picking up the phone to call a new prospect paralyze us?
Should it be able to take away our sense of freedom? Why can the fear of introducing yourself to a stranger and letting them know "you are a Realtor" stop you? How many opportunities are lost each day because of FEAR?
What would happen to your life if you lived it FEARLESS?
FEARLESS of what the prospect on the other side of the phone thinks of you.
FEARLESS of what your co-workers might think of you. FEARLESS of the nay-sayers.
FEARLESS of failure. FEARLESS of rejection.
What if you became FEARLESS?
What if you knew that you were invincible? What if you knew FEAR could not stop you?
The world would be yours.
Look fear in the eye and know that you will win. Don't think about it. KNOW IT! Then go ahead…MOVE!!!
Do the thing that will move your business forward. Gain the freedom.
In your life, tell the person who doesn't know, how you care about them. Tell them why. Tell your children how proud you are of them. Tell your parents, "Thanks". Don't be afraid to say, "I love you".
Don't just decide, commit.
Be FEARLESS…MOVE!

Dear Friend,
I recently stayed somewhere that had a sign posted in the room that read…
"Dear Guest, In an effort to conserve water and energy, would you please consider using your towel more than once. Please decide for yourself. A towel on the rack means 'I'll use it again.' While, a towel on the floor or in the tub means 'Please exchange.'"
It's a silly sign to be telling you about, but initially it caught my attention because of the phrase "Please exchange." After all, I am on staff with Exchanged Life Ministries. I read that sign numerous times before my trip ended, and as funny as it may sound, that sign spoke to me.
I was reminded of Isaiah 64:6 which says, "For we all have become like one who is [ceremonially] unclean [like a leper], And all our deeds of righteousness are like filthy rags." Seeking to establish ourselves as acceptable and right by our own efforts is like repeatedly hanging the most disgusting towel we can imagine on the rack and saying, "It's good, I'll use it again."
Many of us don't know another way. Even if we're Christians we may know that we're forgiven for the wrong we've done but now believe we have to prove ourselves to be acceptable. We pull out the scales and attempt to pile up enough good to outweigh the bad. This is self-righteousness and revolting! Just how revolting? I would encourage you to do a little study on what Isaiah actually meant by filthy rags.
Thankfully 2 Corinthians 5:21 lets us know we can leave our towel of self-righteousness on the floor or in the tub, because we'd like to exchange it for a new one. "He made Christ who knew no sin to [judicially] be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we would become the righteousness of God [that is, we would be made acceptable to Him and placed in a right relationship with Him by His gracious lovingkindness]."
What an exchange! Christ takes our rotten towel of self-righteousness and gives to us His pristine white towel of God's righteousness. A towel dearly bought. Even though He had never known sin, He didn't just pay the penalty for it, but became sin for us all that we might be made acceptable and placed in right relationship with Him.
So friend, will we, in an effort to conserve or protect ourselves, continue to use our putrid towel of self-righteousness? Or, will we in essence leave that towel and all that it represents on the floor or in the tub emphatically stating, "Please God, exchange my self won towel for Christ's won towel!"
As marvelous as this exchange is, God will not force us into it dictating the decision we should make. He'll respect us, making us aware of each of option, and then simply ask, "Please, decide for yourself."
If I can encourage you in any way please don't hesitate to contact me. Also, if the topic of righteous interests you, our conference is a great place to learn more. Aside from that, our web site (elmco.org) is available 24/7 and full of resources.
Never be surprised at what God may use to speak to you! (Numbers 22:21-39)

Suicide Forest by Jeremy Bates
Just outside of Tokyo lies Aokigahara, a vast forest and one of the most beautiful wilderness areas in Japan…and also the most infamous spot to commit suicide in the world. Legend has it that the spirits of those many suicides are still roaming, haunting deep in the ancient woods.
When bad weather prevents a group of friends from climbing neighboring Mt. Fuji, they decide to spend the night camping in Aokigahara. But they get more than they bargained for when one of them is found hanged in the morning–and they realize there might be some truth to the legends after all.
"Thriller fans and readers of Stephen King, Joe Lansdale, and other masters of the art will find much to love in this highly recommended, action-packed read." – Midwest Book Review on Island of the Dolls
"An understated horror story that will remind readers what chattering teeth sound like." -Kirkus on Suicide Forest
"[A] short, sharp shocker…Bates writes persuasively from Brian's adolescent point of view, making the horror of his youthful reminiscences that much more intense." – Publishers Weekly on Black Canyon
"Jeremy Bates has written a great book that would make a great Hollywood screenplay!" – Suspense Magazine on The Taste of Fear
"Bates takes an intriguing premise to shocking lengths, revealing the outcome only in an epilogue. A graphically violent story with building suspense and a moral about where weaving such a web may lead." – Booklist on White Lies
"The Catacombs is a thrilling descent into the unknown, peeling back the dark layers like a rotting onion, tears running down your face as you try to climb your way out. A hypnotic story of buried truths, disfigured creatures, and lost histories told with an authoritative voice full of heart and insight." – Richard Thomas, Bram Stoker nominated author on The Catacombs
"Jeremy Bates doesn't miss a trick, teasing and misleading, ratcheting up the tension as the heroine…loses traction on a slippery slope of deceptions." – Glenn Kleier, New York Times bestselling author on White Lies
"A horror story like none other…makes for a read that will delight horror fans who want their novels steeped in psychological suspense as well as action." – Midwest Book Review on The Catacombs
"A success!" – Hellnotes on Suicide Forest
"Definitely gave me chills reading this late at night which hasn't happened since I was a 13 year old teenager reading Stephen King's, It, for the first time." – verothehero
"Move over King and Koontz there's a new talent in town." – judy pfanner
"I had to stop reading at certain points because he was freaking me out. That only happens to me with one other writer–Stephen King." – Lyn Lutrzykowski
"I think of early Clive Barker, without the guts." – H. Kelly
"Suicide Forest is up the with Joe Hills Heart Shaped Box." – Lola Cain
"Scariest book I've ever read" – Jamie Dobbs
"If you like Greg Olsen or Jeffrey Deaver, Jeremy Bates is a great new talent." – Lnh
"If you like Greg Olsen or Jeffrey Deaver, Jeremy Bates is a great new talent." – Lnh

"If you enjoy Richard Layman, you'll love reading Jeremy Bates" – Anna W.
"This author is in the same league as King, Simmons, and Craven" – linda22724

"In Bates' (The Taste of Fear, 2012, etc.) horror novel, a simple excursion into a reputedly haunted forest turns into a nightmare when people start dying in conspicuously unnatural ways. Ethan Childs, an American teaching English in Tokyo for the last four years, plans to climb Mount Fuji with girlfriend, Mel, and a few pals. But when a looming storm nixes the outing, Israeli tourists Ben and Nina convince the group to join them on a hike through nearby Aokigahara Jukai. The forest is infamous for an incredibly high number of suicides, reportedly in the hundreds per year, and some believe the ghosts of the dead haunt it. What begins as an unsettling ambience (there are no sounds of animals or any trace of wind) quickly gives way to serious, tangible threats when one of the party members dies from an apparent suicide. Ethan and company are soon lost, and the noises they hear in the woods either confirm the existence of ghosts, or perhaps worse, mean that a murderer is tracking them down. Readers may recognize a slasher-film vibe–people willingly go into the creepy woods–and familiar characters…But Bates' approach to the story is surprisingly restrained, cultivating impressive frights in the unnerving environment…No one is sure whether the unseen villain is human or apparition or whether they are simply victims of unfortunate circumstances…Bates' choice to avoid brazen scares makes for an understated horror story that will remind readers what chattering teeth sound like." – Kirkus Reviews
"Now, many horror accounts use the same kind of formula writing: unsuspecting (or curious) victims poke at a known danger until, one by one, they succumb to some dark magic, or a monster. If you're expecting that kind of breezy horror, move on: Suicide Forest isn't like that. It's about heroes and about atrocities committed in the name of heroism. It's about legacies and impacts of decisions, and it's about a reign of terror that has its possible roots in the supernatural (or, does it?) Most of all, it's ultimately about love – and about nightmares that keep victims screaming long beyond the event (or any revelations about its realities.) It's about reclaiming power and wielding it. Expect scenes sometimes gory and startling – this is no light read. Suicide Forest takes all the elements of horror – gore and bloodshed, psychological ties that bind, and a group of fairly normal individuals who themselves absorb some of the horror they confront – and turns it around so that, in the end, one doesn't quite know where the true horror lies. It's difficult to dance around premise and outcome without revealing spoilers, in this case. Suffice it to say that Suicide Forest takes any preconceived notions of 'horror' and turns them on end." – Midwest Book Review
Suicide Forest by Jeremy Bates is a psychological horror story that looks at people's fascination with death, why people commit suicide, the hardships of life, friendship and love…The thing I admired about Suicide Forest was that this is a book that didn't have a lot of action until the end but still managed to keep me interested. I found the characters so intriguing that I couldn't put it down. Even the characters that aren't in the book long have fascinating back stories. This is a psychological horror story which explores some deep subjects in a horrific setting…The reader is constantly left with a feeling of unease because you're not quite sure what's happening until the end. The only thing you know for sure is that entering the forest was a bad idea and all the characters seem to turn on each other at one point. This book made me think of The Blair Witch Project with the exception being that this takes place in what is believed to be a real haunted setting….From reading this book I felt like I had visited the Suicide Forest myself…If you want to know what I mean read the book and find out, you won't be disappointed." – HorrorAddicts
"Suicide Forest holds you to the end; narration, dialog, and descriptions all pull together realistically to place you in the moment. This is one of those books that invites you to read it in one sitting…From the book's cover that reads "World Scariest Places: Book One," it appears that this may be one of the series of novels using actual places on Earth. It is an intriguing concept and one I hope the author continues with; his first experiment is clearly a success. Suicide Forest is for the reader who likes his thrills slowly revealed and full of psychological and interpersonal drama but still shocking and scary. Suicide Forest may not have you buying a plane ticket for Japan to camp amongst the corpses but it will still transport you to the forest and reveal its secrets." – Hellnotes
"Jeremy Bates has written a spellbinding horror story that steadily heightens in suspense until the tension of individuals in desperate straits reaches epic proportions, resulting in an explosive climax followed by a nerve-racking scene in the epilogue…The excellent use of imagery enables readers to become intimately involved in the story vicariously experiencing the abject terror, misery, and despair faced by each person. The hair-raising story keeps you on the edge-of-your-seat wondering if anyone will make it out of the macabre forest alive." – Bestsellersworld

The alleged incident took place in Indiana on Saturday (September 19)
Police in the US are on the look-out for a man alleged to have robbed a bank dressed as late R&B musician Rick James.

According to a report in the Turkish media, PAOK could be set for a windfall if Galatasaray attacker Garry Rodrigues is sold in the summer.
The Cape Verde international has been linked with a move to the Premier League, and West Ham United are the latest to show an interest in the player.
Sporx have reported PAOK are entitled to 20% of Rodrigues' next transfer after the Greek side sold the winger to Galatasaray in 2017.
With the kind of transfer fees being quoted for Rodrigues in the Turkish press this could turn out to be lucrative for PAOK, and it's even been claimed they are putting pressure on the player's agent to force a transfer.
Last month we covered reports from Turkey that West Ham have made a €12m offer for the player, but Galatasaray are reportedly demanding a fee in the region of €18m.
The Hammers will be looking to bolster their attacking options in the summer, and it seems Rodrigues is on their shortlist.
West Ham are likely to face competition from Everton and Newcastle United.

|View from the Washroom
Fraser and I had arranged to meet at Dalwhinnie, and that's what we did. Both on time. I gave him the last of the coffee. I'd drunk nearly a litre on the way up, which was probably more than enough. We geared up and got on our way.
In the planning, we both seemed to favour somewhere both remote and new to us over something easier to access - no roads, no flightpaths, few people. A well kept landrover track leads to Ben Alder lodge, serving a 26,000-acre estate owned by the Swiss industrialist Urs Schwarzenbach, a slick and commercial sporting affair, a favourite with the Royals. We passed other mini balmorals rendered in concrete and glass on the loch side, their more modest (a)spires looking slightly suburban and a little needy. We slipped quietly past, glad to get off the track at last towards Culra Bothy. We forded the river twice and found a flattish pitch, home for the weekend. We'd decided at some point to base ourselves in one place, which turned out to be a wise decision. I tentatively had in mind two grade 1 winter mountaineering routes, weather and comfort permitting. The Long Leachas, and The Lancet Edge - both exposed scrambles and not backpacking routes, especially in winter.
In the end, the window of opportunity was right, and the mountains extended their blessing. On both days I entered the upper realm on a fine line and was rewarded with silence. Apart from the croak of Ptarmigans. Ascending the plateaus via these ridges was like a whispered secret, an addictive mix of anxiousness, adrenaline, connection and complete calm. It's all in the mind, but some of it's in the thighs, arms, lungs. There's nothing like clambering on all fours face 2'' away from the rock to remind you of your animal ancestry. Climbers might look at my efforts and laugh, but no matter, as transitional approaches these were perfect challenges for me.
It was great to meet Fraser at last, conversation was easy and relaxed, and ranged from politics (Scottish independence, Westminster and the {what's}
Left) the usual gear and blogs gossip, to music, conservation
and photography - all things close to my own heart. Meeting like minded outdoors folk in the flesh has really
helped me feel at home in the North.
I found his sense of ambition refreshing (''I don't see why we
can't do it all'', referring to tourism, land reform, species reintroduction and habitat
protection all in the same breath. Agreed!) and picked up some subtle things about photography too. I've long thought Fraser is a poet with a lens, and it turns out this poet thinks in 3D tonal relationships. Genius.
I'll write some more on this weekend later in the year, but for now, what I'm left with is new friends and old. Progress, not conquest - there is no end result. I keep going back to myself, more at home in the upper realm by increments. The mountains keep welcoming me back, sometimes with open arms. The day on the Lancet Edge and the Gael Charn Munro's was probably my biggest day in the Scottish hills to date. It's a real adventure, and an honour, not to be taken for granted. Still recently arrived from a vast and narcissistic metropolis in the south, I feel very lucky to have access to this, and am very aware that so many others don't. It's great to share it - in words and pictures, and at the time.
The final night was extremely cold and clear, both platy and nalgene frozen solid by the morning, my boots turned to B2 stiffness. Another inversion under Culra bothy in the morning. A long walk out in bright winter sunshine. Back whence you came, your guest visa has now expired. Until next time. I'll be seeing you.
|The walk in
|Breakfast for Champions
|Sleeping Giants, 11pm
|Hard Rime and overhangs on the Long Leachas
|A rest point on the Long Leachas
|The Long Leachas Ridge from Ben Alder summit Plateau
|a cashmere shawl on rugged shoulders - dusk in the highlands
|Baby blues, sea greens and alpine blacks towards the Bealach Biethe

|Sunday's dish - The Lancet Edge, before the white out
|The mountain leads the way to Aonach Beag
|My own private Himalaya
|Aonach Beag Summit - there won't be time for a fourth today, but this is enough
|looking back to Bealach Duhb in the dark - a tricksy, avalanche prone prospect
|Final night's camp - crystal clear and my coldest night out yet

Few say they have spoilt me… Few say I take them for granted… Few say I am lucky to have them…They are all right..!
I am just happy that I am the youngest and the most spoilt, I am happy that my father hasn't raised his voice against me even once, I am glad that my mom cries even if I skip a meal…I am overwhelmed by their patience and care for a stubborn, naughty kid I was..
If I can do something to them, this video will show what I will do…With my money(when I have it), coz am a poor kid of a rich dad and even richer bro..!
I don't want to say anything more..
Amma, I miss your chatter..
Acha, I miss your comforting words..

Intolerance Testing
Food Intolerances are often very difficult to pinpoint. These are reactions that can be delayed for 24-48 hours and can be dependent on the amount of the substance consumed over a day/week. We test for the most common substances known to produce an intolerance type of reaction. A Free 15 minute chat is available for you learn more.
Dental Testing
As a growing body of research confirms the close relationship between our oral health and chronic disease, it is timely to investigate how our teeth are impacting upon us. During this testing procedure, we investigate the numerous ways our teeth and gums can impact upon our health.

|This is what people think, when they think of me.... a baker with a Domo! LOL!!
- I am 24 - and I have been baking ever since I could stir a spoon in a bowl
- I live in Malaysia, a hot humid tropical country
- I'm not very good at maths, or science - so I basically bake according to 'feel' (this is why stuff like Macarons or melted chocolate which requires precise measurements, DIE in my hands)
- I work full time as a Brand Developer for a media company - and that is why I usually have posts up only on weekends.. :(
- My DREAM is to open a cozy little cafe in country with a cool climate, where everyone LOVES cakes :P (I'm pretty sure there is such a place...)
About this picture: Friend of mine gave me this caricature she had done for me....
It was such a surprise I almost had to stop myself from screaming (in delight of course) when I saw it.
I absolutely LOVE it!! Great big Thank You! to Miss Vivien and her friend... (whom I must say has mighty great talent!)

His album "The Rise" released on May 12th 2015 debuted at #2 on itunes and #9 on Hip-Hop Billboard charts. He has been touring virtually non-stop over the last 3 years headlining his own tours and supporting acts with a wide variety of fanbases. His fast witty lyrics mixed with substance and relatable subject matter has gained him his own cult following called WTFGang which stands for "We're The Future". As an independent artist Futuristic takes pride in his creativity and versatility using his words to inspire his fans and let them know that anything is truly possible but also gives them music to BANG with the top down in the summer and get them in the feels when they need something to vibe too. Moving forward he expects to be exactly what he named his lead single from his album…. "The Greatest".
In the Fall of 2015 Futuristic was featured on A Great Big World single "Hold Each Other" which led him to National television performances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, VH1 Streamy Awards, Performing for the Vice President Joe Biden & CEO of Apple Time Cook, for the HRC National Dinner in Washington D.C.
Shortly after that he released a joint album with artist/friend Devvon Terrell which sold over 30,000 copies and premiered in all categories of billboard for the first two weeks & also hit #2 on itunes, boosting an already prosperous career of his own.
In 2016 Futuristic hit the internet heavy with all sorts of viral content, a new project titled "As Seen on the Internet" & headlined his first ever solo World tour selling out shows from Seattle to Australia! This year expect more milestones, another full length studio album & crazy performances in a city near you.

I'll Take "What's Taunting Rob" for $1,000, AlexYes, it's true. There's so very much that's competing for the attention of my knitting needles these days. So much wonderful stuff is coming into the shop on a daily basis and I wish I had time to knit (or crochet) with every single bit of it...but alas, I don't. I barely have time to knit at all of late, given how busy we've been. There's a "crazy trifecta" workin' it's way across the shop the past couple weeks, so that's why I've not posted in so long (MANY apologies, loyal readers...I'm back, with a vengence).
Crazy Trifecta defined
So there's not been much "extra" time around of late. But trust me, I have been knitting, mostly on shop models for Yarn Tasting as well as the occasional sock. here's proof
That's the back of the "Diagonal Vest" pattern by Sarah James (yes, we stock it), shown in Diakeito Diadrey, a wonderful combination of wool and mohair, both smooth and boucle spun. All piece parts are done, but they're on hiatus for now. It was to be a Yarn Tasting model, but the distributor didn't have any of the yarn on hand (and won't again until mid-March), so it gets relegated to knitting purgatory for now, hopefully to be resurrected for the April function if the yarn comes back into stock on time.
On to our next victim
That's the "Lace Pullover" that I showed the beginnings of a few weeks ago, being knitted out of O-Wool Classic by Vermont Organic Fibers. The color is quite beautiful when you look at it in person (there's almost a heathery tone to it, and it's called "Thistle"), the hand is lovely (it's 100% organic merino wool and it's every bit as spongy when you squeeze it as any merino I've ever felt), but the combination of this pattern and some unfortunate knitting mistakes (yielding some serious rippage) makes me abhor this garment with my every cell. I called the picture "bye bye" because after the weekend function, I'm tearing it out and making something else with the yarn. It's a DELICIOUS yarn to knit with, but I don't care for it in this pattern. Suggestions, anyone, for a very spongy aran-weight merino?
Lust, Thy Name Is TorinoNot the city, per se, as I've never been (just saw lots of it during last year's winter olympic games--but I'm sure I'd love it!)....the yarn. Have you ever met this yarn in person?
It's 100% extrafne merino (I detect a pattern here), in two weights--aran (4.5 sts) and bulky (3.5 sts), and it's machine washable. It comes in dozens of beautiful colors
and we've ordered every one of them for delivery in the very near future. As we've learned to do, I order a small amount in to make a model garment for the shop, then we have the yarn delivered (the power of a model garment does not escape me). In the meain time, I'm in complete and total lust with this yarn, as I swatched with the bulky last night
and picked up some of the aran tonight to play with while waiting
If you could only feel the hand of this yarn, knitted into the deep teal swatch....it's soooooooo soft and cushy (the yarn is made of lots and lots of tiny plies of lovely merino). What will they grow up to be, you might ask? I'm so very glad you did. The aran is destined to be this amazing garment
which you probably recognize from the ad campaign that Tahki-Stacy Charles has launched for this yarn and the accompanying pattern booklet. And the bulky is going to become this beauty
The question around the shop, however, is which is more lovely--the sweater or the model. It's currently a split decision, but I think the model is slightly in the lead. There are other garments included in the book....two more for the aran
and two more for the bulky
I'm also very fond of the red cabled number on the left (I have a thing for knitted jacket patterns this year....I'm also madly in lust with this pattern, which we stock) and I am going to do something fun when I knit it...I'm using three different shades of Colinette Prism. You'll see it develop here, later this winter. Back on topic!
I'm not sure, however, if I'm going to start one of those two sweaters or something else, like maybe a Norgi that I have wanted to knit since I saw it in the distributor's booth at the June '06 trade show. Now these are some beee-yoooo-teeee-ful sweaters
or maybe I should finally commit and make this aran
that I planned to make 11 months ago, before putting the yarn/pattern aside in favor of something else that was more pressing.
No matter how you slice it, it appears I'm feeling the calling of the traditional knit--be it cables or fair isle knitting. After all, that's my favorite thing to do...cables....or sometimes fair isle. I admit and fully embrace being a traditionalist.
As always, there's a sock (or three) on the needles in my carry around basket. I'm making some progress on it
Not to worry, the leg ius k2p2 ribbing and opens up nicely and will serve as a lovely shop model shortly. The yarn is Interlacements Tiny Toes, which we got in just before the first of the year. I'm working their free pattern, and it's going well. I only knit on this while waiting in lines or drive throughs, so there's not been much progress on it this week, I'm afraid.
Other socks do call my name, however.....with our most recent batch of Cherry Tree Hill yarns, we received some stunning Supersock in African Grey
It's true....it calls out to me in the night, from my basket (until today, it was from the shop all the way to my house).
Given the amount of Cherry Tree Hill Supersock we've received lately, we're currently well stocked
That's both solids and multis in Supersock. A full palette of solids and most multis, both regular/repeatable colourways and potlucks. Which now means I have exactly the right yarns to be knitting some of these
as models for the shop. We adore Lucy Neatby and cannot wait until she's here again in May for workshops. She's an amazing teacher, a fabulous person, and a stunning knitter. We're going to be teaching a class on Lucy's Fiesta Mittens later this spring, which is always a popular class at the shop.
See anything you can't live without or that you want more information about? Slip me an e-mail and we'll get the conversation started.
And with that, I'm spent for this post. Time to go commune with some merino yarn, be it Torino, Torino Bulky, or Supersock. I'm not picky at all which gets my attention!

Reading old newspapers online is what I call great entertainment. Our newspapers now are very cautious about what they print due to our litigious society. The old newspapers were more like our modern day "Globe" or "Enquirer", with the exception that Photo Shop hadn't been invented yet.
The article below wouldn't have made the newspaper now because no coroner would want to be labeled this inept.
Below is a bizarre rhyming obituary for a baby. Would any newspaper now print that little Jerry died from dysentery? Or old man Fancher died from cancer? There have been some improvements in the press.
The following would be a cheery addition to the "Weddings" section of the paper.
Below is An Honest Obituary from 1916.
And finally, some very unusual causes of death found in various old newspapers.

Pre Classic, Distance Night
I was a little late to the meet, so finding seats was a challenge. The meet had open entry for the first night to bring in a crowd for Distance Night. Most of the races were high school kids running as the warm-up act and we arrived in time for the high school women's and men's 1600m.
The lateness was due to stopping for dinner at Beppe & Gianni's Trattoria on 19th and Agate. I highly recommend lingering. Sampling wine would also be encouraged. Leave more time than I did to get to the track.
The girl's fired off and the pack stayed pretty tight through the first three laps with Devin Clark leading them out. The race was tight with Ryen Frazier hanging close, Christina Aragon and Jordyn Colter just back a touch. The race came down to Jones and Frazier dueling the entire final lap with the race not decided until the last straightaway when Ryen finally got a step in front at the tap.
She also had the best interview line of the night. When asked, Frazier was bubbling as she said, "Danielle and I have battled like that a lot, but this place is so awesome. I kept having to tell myself to stop smiling, you're supposed to be racing." Utterly charming and refreshing.
The men's side had the field separate much faster. Mike Braningan took the early lead and pushed the first lap in a 61. Salisbury, Barnard, and Ratcliffe were all in the mix as they juggled positions.
Hidden in the pack, Carlos Villareal floated in back in about sixth or seventh place for the first half of the race. By the end of the third lap, he was up to about fifth when Brannigan and Salisbury took off. The rest of the chase pack went after them but the two leaders had smashed open a 15 meter lead.
Coming off the final turn, Brannigan opened some more, but back 35 meters, Villareal exploded. The crowd responded as he flew down the straightaway, picking of Ratcliffe, then Barnard, then Salisbury. With 40 meters to go, only Brannigan was in front. With 20 meters to go, and the crowd on it's feet, he sprinted into the lead, and the win, and a PR of 4:05.
The featured events were the 5000m and 10,000m and the races lived up to the hype, especially the 10,000m with Farah and Tanui taking turns leading laps and Kamworor hanging on to third. The race came down to the last lap. Nobody outkicks Farah on the last lap. The times were the fastest of the season in the world, a good omen for the upcoming outdoor meets.
Bernard Lagat, ageless and graceful, ran his way into fourth position. Love to watch that man run.
Loved watching the high school kids taking a victory lap together. I don't think our runners have every had that honor. They grinned all the way around, high fiving along the way.

Creativity, persistence and curiosity...shows up at camp
The decline corresponds to the timing of a change of American educational focus. In the last twenty years, our US public education system has focused on standardized testing and AP courses in order to ensure that all children are receiving the same caliber of education. But that education hasn't been focused on cultivating curiosity.
Curiosity asserts itself in interesting moments. For example, we had our first camp visiting day as parents recently and besides the joy of seeing our eldest child, the camp director pulled me aside to give some insight into my son. The most important thing he wanted to tell me was that my son asked interesting and provocative questions – all the time and especially during Friday services. And he had creative solutions to questions he asked. Having just read the Newsweek article (and I recommend it and NurtureShock to all parents and educators), I was thrilled.
My response, albeit glib, was that my children are in a school that stresses creative thinking and problem solving. The school certainly believes in assessments, tests and grades – benchmarks through which the student, teacher and parents can measure progress. But learning to ask good questions and consider multiple answers is a crucial capability. It probably helps that my children are not shy and that we expect them to figure things out on their own at home too.
I read a lot about brain development and education – ever since I had my first child, I've wanted to understand how his brain develops and how I can help him grow into a productive, confident and independent adult. What I've been reading lately – The Global Achievement Gap and Disrupting Class – reinforce that standardized testing-oriented public schools are turning children off to learning and squashing their natural creativity. Po Bronson and Ashley Merriman's article pointed that creativity is not about art class – it's about the entire education; it's about asking questions. We need all our schools to be cultivating creativity as that is at the heart of the American dream and the American story.
When I look to hire someone, I look for creativity, persistence and team play. According to Tony Wagner (author of Global Achievement Gap), virtually every hiring manager – white color, blue color, manufacturing, information technology – is looking for the same attributes. What can we do to bring creativity back to the public schools? Is it still there (and the things I'm reading are just alarmist and misguided)?

Buddha Is Unnamable
Give a definite name to Deity, He would be no more than what the name
implies. The Deity under the name of Brahman necessarily differs
from the Being under the appellation of Jehovah, just as the Hindu
differs from the Jew. In like manner the Being designated by God
necessarily differs from One named Amitabha or from Him entitled
Allah. To give a name to the Deity is to give Him tradition,
nationality, limitation, and fixity, and it never brings us nearer to
Him. Zen's object of worship cannot be named and determined as God,
or Brahman, or Amitabha, or Creator, or Nature, or Reality, or
Substance, or the like. Neither Chinese nor Japanese masters of Zen
tried to give a definite name to their object of adoration. They now
called Him That One, now This One, now Mind, now Buddha, now
Tathagata, now Certain Thing, now the True, now Dharma-nature, now
Buddha-nature, and so forth. Tung Shan (To-zan) on a certain
occasion declared it to be "A Certain Thing that pillars heaven above
and supports the earth below; dark as lacquer and undefinable;
manifesting itself through its activities, yet not wholly comprisable
within them." So-kei expressed it in the same wise: "There
exists a Certain Thing, bright as a mirror, spiritual as a mind, not
subjected to growth nor to decay." Huen Sha (Gen-sha) comparing it
with a gem says: "There exists a bright gem illuminating through the
worlds in ten directions by its light."
Tung Shan Luh (To-zan-roku, 'Sayings and Doings of Ta-zan')
is one of the best Zen books.
So-kei, a Korean Zenist, whose work entitled Zen-ke-ki-kwan
is worthy of our note as a representation of Korean Zen.
This certain thing or being is too sublime to be named after a
traditional or a national deity, too spiritual to be symbolized by
human art, too full of life to be formulated in terms of mechanical
science, too free to be rationalized by intellectual philosophy, too
universal to be perceived by bodily senses; but everybody can feel
its irresistible power, see its invisible presence, and touch its
heart and soul within himself. "This mysterious Mind," says Kwei
Fung (Kei-ho), "is higher than the highest, deeper than the deepest,
limitless in all directions. There is no centre in it. No
distinction of east and west, and above and below. Is it empty?
Yes, but not empty like space. Has it a form? Yes, but has no form
dependent on another for its existence. Is it intelligent? Yes, but
not intelligent like your mind. Is it non-intelligent? Yes, but not
non-intelligent like trees and stone. Is it conscious? Yes, but not
conscious like you when waking. Is it bright? Yes, but not bright
like the sun or the moon." To the question, "What and who is
Buddha?" Yuen Wu (En-go) replied: "Hold your tongue: the mouth is

Two interesting announcements: Innovative and EBSCO Information Services have announced the integration of YBP Library Services and EBSCO online ordering with Sierra. The integration will provide seamless ordering and improved workflow efficiencies. This news follows the recent announcements of EBSCO's API and Innovative's Open Library Stack. The initial development will use cloud-based RESTful APIs from both Innovative and EBSCO. The integration will leverage the value each partner offers to benefit mutual customers by significantly reducing the number of steps required to complete a purchase and improve the overall workflow.
Reportedly, Amazon.com Inc. and HarperCollins Publishers have reached agreement on a new multiyear publishing pact that covers both print and digital titles. Apparently, HarperCollins will set the retail prices of its digital books, with incentives for HarperCollins to provide lower prices to consumers, according to a person familiar with the situation. So it appears that there will be no showdown.
Just a few days ago, OCLC has signed agreements with publishers in the Humanities, Social Sciences and Business to add metadata for books, e-books, journals, audiovisual materials and databases that will make their content discoverable through WorldCat Discovery Services. OCLC has agreements in place with more than 180 publishers and information providers to supply metadata to facilitate discovery and access to key resources. OCLC recently signed agreements with these providers: Acquisdata, Anthropological Literature, Bloomsbury Publishing, Duke University Press, Greenleaf Publishing Ltd., GSE Research Ltd., Hakjisa, Harvard University Press, Mark Allen Group, The MIT Press, NOMOS, Pledger Consulting, University of Toronto Press, and Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH

Welcome to another wonderful edition of the Phat Daily Column. It's a muggy day here in my area, with some snow starting to cover the roads. Well, last night, we were treated to some Chunder to enjoy, which means that today is WCW Day. Wait, I mean Dubya Cee Dubya Day. Also, I have other crazy ideas in my head before we hit WCW Day, so on to the PDC!
Oh yeah. Many of you are asking about why the PDC comes out later now. Well, I'm able to sleep in, since I'm currently off from school, so I'm milking it! Expect the PDC to usually be out around 12 - 2 pm (or until 3) in this case, until school starts for me again in January.
But my point here is that the WWF is missing out on a HUGE opportunity to create an awesome show. Before we get to my idea, let's discuss an ABC idea which happened last year. Riding off the successful Behind the Scenes Sports Center commercials, ABC created a show called Sports Night. Now, looking in the TV Guide, I don't quite see that it's listed any more, so either I'm blind or it was cancelled... However, when the show first started, it was critically acclaimed for being one of the best new shows on television. Why? There was a lot of intrigue of what goes on behind the scenes at a sports show or whatever.
See where I'm going? Why not have a wrestling show, where you have behind the scenes operations going on. You could have corrupt bookers, ego-maniac wrestlers, and just behind the scenes of a day to day operating wrestling federation. This federation could start out as a very small federation, where it would be barely surviving each night. Then, it picks up steam and becomes a decent success. Then, they could show the federation in decline, showing how bad the morale can get.
I was thinking you could have a rival federation "buying" up their talent, which means that a certain wrestler would leave the show. Oh yeah, the wrestlers! Well, the WWF certainly has a vast roster of guys who need some sort of spot on either RAW or Smackdown. If they aren't working out well, then make them one of the wrestlers on this show! Also, a lot of the Ohio Valley Wrestling prospects could help star as wrestlers here, and the same with the Memphis ones. If the show were to be a success, you could use it to grow new WWF superstars.
The WWF would be able to do it now since the business is very exposed right now. Any book you read will tell you about the locker room status, and so forth. So you could reveal how tough it gets back there. Wrestling fans, and easily new people would tune in, every week, to see who gets screwed over by the booking, or something like that. Hell, the WWF could even create a "Hulk Hogan" type person, who has an ego that gets WAY out of control backstage.
Seriously, this kind of show would be a huge hit if thought about, if you ask me.
Sooooo.... I want some gamers opinions here on how to fix this problem. I will indeed post it on the PDC tomorrow, if you do send in good advice. If you are sending an email, please put "No Mercy Concerns" in the title of your email so that I know what it is in case I accidentally discard it.
This way, many can fix their problem, and many of those who haven't asked yet can find out in my column tomorrow.
1. Million Dollar Deal from WCW: This is the main reason why he never returned to WCW, since he wanted a sweet deal that he felt he never got. He asked for a $3 Million deal back when they were trying to negotiate, and WCW just let him go.
2. Million Dollar Deal from WWF: This won't happen, since the WWF would only take him for a much lower salary. The WWF doesn't think they need Savage, especially since he was sort of stiff during his last run at WCW. Cheap is the only way you'll see him here. (On a side note, I'd love to see Savage back in the WWF to shake up things)
3. A possible Eric Bischoff WCW Return: Bischoff always has a heart for guys like Savage or Hulk Hogan, so if Bischoff's team buys WCW, you should expect the Macho Man to return to WCW in a heartbeat, and become Hogan's flunky again!
4. Hogan's WCW contract to run out, and maybe form a new federation with FOX?: It's rumored to be happening when Hogan's contract officially runs out sometime in the year 2001, and I guess Macho is being patient for that too. Again, he'll be Hogan's flunky.
5. Make an ECW Appearance: He's asked for too much money for Heyman to afford here before.
But until certain things happen, like Savage asking for a lower price or if Bischoff buys WCW or whatever else, don't expect to see Savage on TV anytime soon, except for those wonderful Slim Jim commercials. Slim Jim loves Savage as their head guy, and they probably will never drop him.
By the way...... guess how Savage got that Slim Jim deal? Macho Man got it when the Ultimate Warrior left the WWF, and then Macho Man was handed it. I forgot to mention that during the Warrior column!
Not a bad Thunder, especially since the previous ones have totally sucked!
I don't like how WCW jobbed out the #1 US title contender, Shane Douglas, to Bill Goldberg. Especially since the US Champ already lost on Monday, it really makes the US title division laughable. I'm sure that Shane will win at Starrcade, making an odd situation since Shane was squashed by Goldberg, Rection lost a tough fight to Steiner, and Steiner has been dogging Goldberg for a while now. I did enjoy the ending to the match though, with evil Flexy Lexy coming out and racking Sarge. Then, Goldberg was about to save the Sarge until Douglas hit him, and Bill quickly finished the match and ran up to Sarge.
It would have been interesting to see Goldberg actually get counted out of that match to save the Sarge, thus ruining the streak. It would have more people talking at least, if ya ask me. :)
All I can say is that Arn Anderson still gives some of the best promos in the business. If you had any other wrestler, they wouldn't have made any sense at all, explaining the situation to Flair. Anderson is a guy who helped make the David Flair and Ms. Hancock situation look decent for a while, when Arn offered his advice to David. Arn still remains one of the smartest men in the business.
Man, this Reno and Big Vito, with Marie, situation gets stranger by the minute! It's really odd how they have added this "family" thing to the angle. I bet ya that Marie is paying Kronik!
Buff Bagwell tried for the "Billy Gunn Look" last night, as he tried to puff his hair up. Sadly though, the way he was combing it used to hide his "expanding forehead" if you know what I'm saying.
Whoooooo!! Chavo Guerrero is your NEW Cruiserweight Champion. Good stuff, as I'm sure Sanders will either get it back on Nitro/Thunder next week, or book himself to win it at Starrcade. I believe this move was made to "butter up" Chavo into signing a new deal, even though Uncle Eddie keeps telling Chavo that he MIGHT be able to get him a good WWF job. Well, whatever he does, I'm just glad he's no longer Lt. Loco. That was a bad, bad gimmick.
Why is it that everyone who fights Bam Bam Bigelow has the worst matches of their careers? A-Wall (get it?? A.... WALL?????) and Bam Bam put on an eyesore of a Hardcore Match. No, let me call it an Enema of a Hardcore Match. It was HORRIBLE! Two slow workers just won't mesh there Ace and Taylor.
Jindrak and O'Haire are F'N badasses, I swear! They manhandled Noble and Karagias, which makes me wonder where Jindrak/O'Haire will be for Starrcade? I don't know? But what I do know is that there was a lot of dry spots in their match last night, which made me wonder. Was it because the crowd was tired after being "hot" for Nitro?
Lovely how WCW was censoring the name Scott Hall out of the interview. If they don't want his name mentioned, why don't you actually enforce DDP and Nash to NOT mention his name at all? Duh!!! Stevie Ray can't give a good interview if his life depended on it.
This crowd cheered their hearts out for Nitro, and they were quiet for the rest of the show, except for when Shane Douglas talked stuff on the crowd. This show was pretty good overall, and for that, I'll actually grade it with a B.
It appears that Vampiro is off the ICP tour and he will concentrate on healing up, and then returning to World Championship Wrestling. Yeah, I'm so sure he'll do that. Vamp will just return to wrestling, maybe bring ICP back for a few more dates, and then disappear again with a new bullshit excuse. His head keeps getting pulled in so many directions that I'm not sure he's made a single decision about his own life, ever.
I like where the Ric Flair and Scott Steiner feud is going. It's actually well thought out, for a change, and we are no longer subject to retardation like many other angles in WCW. However, if this is actually leading to a HUGE Steiner vs. Flair match down the road, I feel bad for Slick Ric then. No matter how Steiner acts on camera, he HATES Ric Flair for real. Remember, he was suspended for actually shooting on camera about Flair, and he's dogged Flair in many interviews for magazines or internet sites. Steiner just might toss Flair around like a rag doll, something that Flair's now older body can't handle. Not good at all.
Of course, that big pay off match MIGHT not happen. You see, the Time Warner-AOL merger is said to be happening around early January of 2001. That means that AOL wouldn't want a non profitable organization under their belt, so WCW will most likely be sold. The only buyer left................. Eric "Ken doll" Bischoff. Put a nail in the coffin when that happens.
4. Jeff Jarrett: Still willing to work that midcard!
3. Chavo Guerrero: Finally, some credibility to this man! New Cruiserweight Champion, with a meaner attitude. He should bring back the horse on a stick for even more fun. Remember when Norman Smiley killed that thing?
2. Bill Goldberg: Good feud with Luger, with destructive wins over MI Smooth and Shane Douglas.
1. Scott Steiner: Already a better World Champ than Booker T ever was, even though I mark out for Booker totally. It's called "actually using your champion good".

What will you do about it?
Wow! - Brag on God.
Now... - Tell God about what's going on in your life.
How? - Stop talking and start listening to his Word and his Spirit.
Have a blessed day,

By Wendy Lim, 2 minute read
Hi Wendy
I like yoga but I feel so demotivated when I see others so good at yoga. How can I get over this?
Krystina, Customer Relationship Manager
Hi Krystina,
Great question. I have 5 ideas for you in the bullet points below. It's hard not to compare yourself to others. It something we seem to automatically do, to gauge where we "fit" among others.
Try taking that attention and focus, and direct it inwards. What are the qualities you admire in the people you are watching? Why is this important to you? Do you have the potential to cultivate these qualities in yourself? I'm sure you do have this potential. I have no doubt we are all going to get better with time. It's inevitable. But we have to do the work and show up for the progress to happen.
I felt the same demotivated way, when I was learning to boulder (indoor rock climb without a harness) and couldn't do the hard problems straight away. I just wanted to succeed and get it in my first attempt. I didn't want to keep "failing". Even though, I knew it takes time to build up the tendon strength, muscles, techniques and endurance to progress up to the more difficult problems.
So, I changed my focus. I set a goal to make 15 attempts on any bouldering problem instead of having to succeed on every attempt. By shifting my focus to trying, I got a bigger sense of satisfaction and was motivated to keep trying. So explore something similar when approaching yoga, try focusing on just showing up to class and practicing yoga that suits your body and mind.
Here are 5 practical options to get you back on track:
- Join a 4-10 week beginner's yoga course with ideally the same teacher, learn the basics well. Practise with a teacher you like. Getting feedback from someone with experience who you trust will help more than guessing what you need to work on based on what other students are doing in the class.
- Start to become aware of when you begin to compare/focus on someone else's progress. Instead compare your progress against Krystina. Someone you know well. Krystina yesterday, a year ago, 5 years ago.
- Try different styles of yoga, and try different teachers until you find that teacher who resonates with you.
- Try and find classes, with smaller group sizes, and move at a gentler pace so there is time for your body to get familiar with the movements.
- Try private yoga with a teacher, so the practice is completely focused on you (if you are financially able to)
Join up to receive Mindful Mondays Letters.

I did it.
I sent the song.
You see…
Last summer, my little friend went to be with Jesus after a tragic boating accident. I wrote a poem that expressed grief yet hope in the whole situation. It just…came to me. I was praying one day and it just came. Badda bing, badda boom. I reread it after it was finished and cried. It expressed exactly what I was feeling at the moment. What I believed. The trust and hope you can have in Jesus. I posted it on Facebook thinking it was over. Just a poem and nothing more.
God has bigger plans.
A month after I wrote the poem, a tune came to me, too. I had lyrics and I had a melody. I had rhyme and I had piano chords. The lyrics were the poem, the melody was the piano chords. I had a song. My FIRST song. This song was written and completed in a time period of 3o minutes. I played through it a few times and got goose bumps… God knows what makes me get chills. For real. Songs with emotion give me chills.
God has bigger plans.
A few weeks later was youth group's talent show. I debated whether or not to sing the song for the people, but I did it anyways. Who cared what anyone thought? I was going to sing the song in memory of my friend. The song God gave me. I had to…wanted to…
People came up to me after the talent show was over and told me to get it professionally recorded to give to the parents of the little girl. My first thought was… you can't be serious. This is just a song. It's not even that good. Let alone give to a family who is mourning. Let alone MY song.
But I prayed and God had bigger plans.
Another friend helped me record it in a studio. It was done. I recorded it and it was an official MP3. Crazy. Well, I kept the file on my computer forever, thinking to myself: Should I send it? Should I not? Will they like it? What is God's plan in this? A family is grieving. I can't just sent a song I wrote…they won't care.
I over think things too much. That's my problem. I need to learn to trust God in all situations. And this was one of them. So after this realization, I breathed out a sigh, prayed for the right words to come, and sent the file through an email to the parents. Four days ago.
It's sent and they responded in heartfelt thankfulness. They loved the song. I can't say it was my idea, because God gave it to me.
God has bigger plans.
(If you want to hear the song for yourself, search 'heaven has welcomed' on youtube. The first option is the song. Or, just search Jesusfreak4evr93 and click the video that is titled Heaven Has Welcomed)

Sometimes I feel like life screwed me over. I don't understand a lot of things. I knew back when I was younger what I wanted to be and how I wanted to be. Bur my plans failed. I'm now just a fat sack of ugly trash. I want to be that innocent five-year-old that saw the world as a beautiful place. I want that back, but sadly I know that it will never come back.
I'm an over-thinker. Never been popular, as far as I know. Just another self-conscious person.

June Board Of Trustees Update
Board of Trustees Update
Dear residents, we take this opportunity to keep you informed of some happenings and future projects in our Village. If any resident has additional questions, please contact Village Hall. We remind you that school is out, please drive carefully. Have a safe July Fourth Holiday.
The term of the Village Clerk has expired and the Village Board of Trustees has initiated the search for a well-qualified candidate. In general, the candidate should have strong customer service, finance, organizational and computer skills and be able to contribute to a more user-friendly environment for the residents of the Village. The position offers a pension, healthcare and a 9am - 4pm workday. Preference will be given to Munsey Park residents. If you are interested, please send a resume and salary requirements to Paul Pepper at email@example.com.
Village taxes are due no later than July 3 without penalty. Village Hall hours are listed below.
The Village recently executed a new five-year garbage removal contract with Meadow Carting. Meadow has served our Village for many years and, in addition to being the lowest responsible bidder, is familiar with Munsey Park strict rules regarding garbage. Each year Meadow removes an average of approximately 1.75 tons of garbage from each home in the Village, excluding yard waste and recyclables. As part of the contract and in compliance with Village laws, the garbage must be removed from behind the house. In other words, garbage is not to be left at the curb. We pay extra for rear door pick up. Please do not leave garbage or trash at the curb. This is unsightly, is rude to your neighbors and is against the law. In response to an increase in complaints about garbage left at the curb, the Village will soon be sending warning letters to homeowners who violate the Village Code in this regard.
The Village received four bids from various contractors for the repaving and improvement of Inness Place. The official bids are posted on the Village website. The Board reviewed the bids with the road engineer and decided on a contractor. Road work should begin sometime in July. The Village will notify residents of the specific time periods of construction on the website once the contractor informs us of a start date. Please watch out for road closures during this time and be careful when driving in this area during construction.
The Village has been working with the Munsey Park Women's Club to complete the
beautification of Waldmann Memorial Park. The Village has put the project out to bid and the beautification plans are posted on the Village website. Bids are due at the end of the month and the Board will review the bids and decide which contractor to use for the project.
To decrease the congestion on our streets and increase safety for our children, the Village has put the walkway project out to bid. The walkway will allow parents to park at the Congregational Church and walk their children to school. The plans will be posted shortly on the Village website. The Board will review the bids and decide which contractor to use for the project.
Village Hall will be open Monday through Thursday from 9am - 4pm and close at 12 pm on Fridays, from June 30 - September 1.
Our Village is driven by residents volunteering for different positions. If you have a desire to get involved on any of the Village Boards, please reach out to Mayor DeMento or any of the other Trustees.
The next Board of Trustees meeting will be Wednesday, July 12, 2017 at 7:30pm.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact any of the trustees:
Mayor Frank DeMento email@example.com
Deputy Mayor John Lippmann email@example.com
Trustee Larry Ceriello email@example.com
Trustee Patrick Hance email@example.com
Trustee Jennifer Noone email@example.com
