Refreshments (Courtesy of FOREMOST FERILIZER COMPANY) 00000 WATERMELON BREEDING J. M. Crall, Plant Pathologist A newly-released cultivar, Jubilee II, is being grown commercially in Florida this season for the first time, and will be available to growers in other states for the 1990-91 season. Plant Variety Protection (PVP) certification has been requested and Asgrow Seed Company is the sole licensee for production and sale of seed of this new cultivar. Jubilee II is a Jubilee-type cultivar with resistance to races 0 and 1 of the Fusarium wilt organism and resistance to anthracnose (race 1). It is superior to Jubilee, also, in most plant and fruit characters. Reports on its performance in this season's Florida grower plantings indicate enthusiastic endorsement by growers of Jubilee II. In 1986 three cultivars, Charlee, Minilee, and Mickylee, were released from this Center's watermelon breeding program. Charlee, with PVP certification, is licensed solely to the Petoseed Company, while Minilee and Mickylee, also with PVP certification, is licensed to both Petoseed and Pennington Seed Company (Hollar). Seed of all three cultivars are available from other seed companies. Charlee is a Charleston Gray-type cultivar with resistance to anthracnose (race 1) and resistance to both races 0 and 1 of the Fusarium wilt organism. It produces good yields of high quality fruits similar in size, shape, and weight to those of Charleston Gray. Reports from growers indicate satisfactory performance in commercial plantings, but the extent of its use commercially is not known. Minilee and Mickylee are icebox-type cultivars with excellent fruit quality and resistance to anthracnose (race 1) and Fusarium wilt (races 0 and 1). These two icebox cultivars have been produced in Central America for the past 5 winter seasons and have been on domestic markets in increasing volume during that time. Both Central American and domestic growers have reported increasing export shipments to Canada, Europe, and Japan. The USDA, through its Orlando Research Station, has conducted storage and shipping trials, including shipments to Europe, since 1987. They regard Minilee and Mickylee as the most promising icebox cultivars for watermelon shipments to export markets, especially to Europe. (See article by Dr. Larry Risse in our 1988 Field Day Research Report) Mickylee is perhaps the variety most utilized as a pollinator in seedless watermelon production fields. As a result largely of the release of Minilee and Mickylee, and particularly because of their excellent fruit qualities and the uniqueness of their fruits with regard to size, flesh and rind characteristics, keeping qualities and other characteristics, there has been a significant buildup of interest by both growers and consumers in small-fruited watermelons. We view these happenings as favorable towards reversing the decline in per capital consumption of watermelon (over 30%) that has occurred in the United States over the past 20 years. A second line from our Charleston Gray backcrossing program, S84GS(N), also known as our SW4 line and tentatively named Graylee, has been approved for release by the IFAS Cultivar Release Technical Advisory Committee. A release circular manuscript is being prepared for submission to the Cultivar Release Committee for their consideration. It is resistant to both anthracnose (race 1) and Fusarium wilt (races 0 and 1). It produces good yields of high quality, shipping-type fruits that are somewhat larger than those of Charlee. Fruit size approaches that of Jubilee. It has performed well for several years in the SCWT Replicated Trial. In 1987 it was second highest in marketable yield and had the second highest overall rating score of 11 entries in the test. There are a number of other lines that are further in the future with regard to eventual release as cultivars. With the increasing interest in icebox sizes, we have several other lines grouped as Small-seeded Dixielee lines (SSDL) that are in the replicated field test stage. SSDL and 86C8-5 performed well in Dr. Don Maynard's test in 1989 and they, as well as S89J39-1 and F89C10-6, look promising in this season's trials. Even further in the future but also at the field test stage are lines from the Crimson Sweet backcrossing program and some other large round stripe lines (LRS) that have shown promise and are in the replicated trials for the first time this season (S89K26-2 and F89A25-1). In addition to the Jubilee II release and later projected releases (Graylee and other lines in replicated tests), we have a number of lines in earlier stages of the breeding program. Perhaps most important, in view of the threat to the watermelon and cucurbit industries from mosaic virus diseases, are lines from the Nigerian line "Egun" being selected for resistance to WMV (WMV2). These lines are in the F3 to F6 generations after 2 to 4 back crosses to some of our better advanced selections. We have 2 lines (F89A1-6 and F89CW3-4) in replicated trial this year for the first time. Second in importance to breeding for resistance to mosaic (WMV) is our program for resistance to gummy stem blight (GSB). GSB lines are mostly in the F5 generation after 6 crosses with selected advanced lines to progenies developed from PI 189225. Studies on resistance to the race 2 Fusarium wilt organism are in the early stages, but have significance because of the known occurrence of this race in Europe, Asia, Florida and other states in this country and its likely occurrence throughout the world. Limited work is being done in our program on tetraploid and triploid lines and on dwarf lines with dwarfing genes from the Kentucky watermelon program. The dwarf (short-internode) lines are in early stages of evaluation, but have interesting long-range potential. Initiated this year are studies on small-seeded accessions of watermelon. Two lines ("tomato seed" and PI 271771) have exceptionally small seeds that could lead to improved fruit quality in progenies developed from them.

Watermelon Variety Trials (See Pages 10 to 12) Icebox Watermelon Variety Trial (See Pages 13 and 14) a Cantaloupe (Muskmelon) Variety Trials (See Pages 15 to 20) SEEDLESS (TRIPLOID) WATERMELON BREEDING/EVALUATION/PRODUCTION Since flowers on triploid watermelon plants lack sufficient pollen to induce fruit set and fruit enlargement, seeded watermelon varieties are interplanted with triploids to serve as pollenizers. An adequate bee population is necessary to ensure that the transfer of pollen occurs. There has been some debate as to which varieties are best suited as pollenizers. In 1989, I obtained the best early yield when Mickylee and Sugar Baby served as pollenizers. However, total yield from triploid plants was nearly equal regardless of pollenizer variety. Other pollenizer varieties included Jubilee II, Royal Jubilee, and Prince Charles. TRIPLOID POLLENIZER TRIAL MEAN YIELDS (LBS/ACRE) I__J Early Harvest rvFinalst alrvest Pollenizer Treatments and plot diagrams on Page 21. for the 1990 triploid pollination trial are presented WATERMELON FERTILIZER TRIAL The 1989 trial was initiated to determine the affect of preharvest fertilizer application on yield, fruit size, quality, and hollow heart occurrence in Royal Jubilee (seeded) and Jack of Hearts (seedless) watermelons. All plots received the same fertilizer in the bedding operation -- 800 lb/A of a 6-8-8 plus 100 lb/A of a 15-0-14 at emergence. At layby and preharvest (2 weeks prior to the 1st harvest) nitrate of soda-potash, 15-0-14, was applied in a 3 x 4 factorial experiment. Rates at layby were 500, 750, and 1000 lb/A and preharvest rates were 0, 200, 400, and 800 lb/A. Differences among the treatments were few as shown on the next page. /, . . ,%;<"/ '/ '' . . . .. . .

Plots were harvested for the first time on Monday, June 4. BEE ATTRACTANTS Insects are required for pollination of cucurbits. Honeybees are the most commonly used insect. Without sufficient transfer of pollen by honeybees, fruit set does not occur or off-shaped fruit result. Bee attractants have been used in the past, with varying degrees of success, to increase bee activity. In preliminary studies in 1989, Bee Scente was applied to watermelons at CFREC Leesburg and in most cases increased bee activity was evident in treated areas. Cooperative studies were conducted in 1990 with Dr. Don Maynard, Gulf Coast Research & Education Center, Bradenton. In many cases increased bee activity was noted. In the Bradenton area, early, uniform fruit set occurred in treated areas. In the Leesburg area, increased yield in two of three treated fields was noted. Complete results from the 1990 trial are not available at the present time. MUSKMELON BREEDING Purpose. To evaluate the combining ability of some varieties and breeding lines and to develop parental lines with genetic properties suitable for Fl hybrid seed production. Procedure. Almost without exception, the highest quality muskmelon fruits in Florida are produced by hybrid varieties. However there is a reluctance on the part of growers to plant hybrid seed since the cost is 10 to 15 times greater than that of open-pollinated varieties. The high price of seed is the result of the need for hand emasculation and hand pollination to produce hybrid seed. At present, I am attempting to incorporate various characters into parental lines which would make them more suitable for parental lines and reduce the cost of hybrid seed. A new male-sterile gene was released to seed companies in 1983 by the CFREC Leesburg. Studies are continuing on the usefulness of either the monoecious or gynoecious flowering habit for production of hybrid muskmelon seed. Gynoecious. The goal is to incorporate the gynoecious flowering habit into an inbred line adapted to Florida. WI 998 is essentially a 100% gynoecious line in Florida and is being utilized in this program. Backcrosses are being made to western type melons. Monoecious. As above, the goal is to incorporate the monoecious flowering habit into inbred lines. Because of the number of genes which modify fruit shape, it has been difficult to develop round monoecious lines. Selection of only round fruit is extremely important. Backcrosses are being made to western types. Male Sterile. The current emphasis in on the incorporation of Fusarium wilt resistance and non-sutured melon types into my male sterile lines. Zucchini Yellow Mosaic Virus. I am attempting to incorporate the ZYMV resistance/tolerance from PI 371795 and PI 414723 into my male-sterile breeding lines and also into non-sutured types. SQUASH BREEDING Powdery Mildew. Resistance to powdery mildew has been transferred from Cucurbita martinezii to C. pepo. After several seasons of backcrossing and selection, an inbred PM-resistant zucchini type will be released to 1990. PM- resistant, inbred yellow summer CN and SN types with and without the precocious gene will be also released in 1990. Zucchini Yellow Mosaic Virus. Attempts to transfer ZYMV resistance from C. ecuadorensis to C. pepo are continuing. Sterility factors and lack of male blossoms on F1 plants are causing problems in completing this transfer. Crosses with a ZYMV- resistant C. moschata from Nigeria were made in fall 1987. These are being selfed in spring 1990 for field evaluation this fall.

L. Hopkins, Plant Pathologist BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF FUSARIUM WILT OF WATERMELON Fusarium wilt is the major, limiting production problem in watermelon in Florida. Watermelon cultivars are described as resistant or susceptible to Fusarium wilt, but they actually form a continuum from susceptible to highly resistant (See table). Resistant cultivars and a long rotation are the only controls used by most growers. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find pastureland that has not been planted with watermelons for 6-8 years. Therefore, we have been conducting studies to develop the methods to shorten the interval of crop rotation. Ten watermelon cultivars with a gradation of wilt resistance were compared in a cultivar monoculture for the development of Fusarium wilt and for the buildup of the wilt fungus in the soil. After 3-4 years, all of the cultivars except Crimson Sweet wilted severely regardless of previously described resistance levels. Only the resistance of Crimson Sweet was stable in the monoculture. Resistance 2-year monoculture 11-year monoculture Cultivar ranking1 % wilt Yield(T/acre) % wilt Yield(T/acre) Calhoun Gray HR 12 a 9.8 a 45 0.3 Smokylee HR 12 a 9.5 a 23 2.5 Crimson Sweet MR 19 ab 10.7 a 8 12.6 Charleston Gray MR 41 b 5.0 b 74 0.7 Florida Giant S 82 c 0.0 c 75 0.0 1HR = highly resistant, MR = moderately resistant, S = susceptible. At this time, we do not recommend growing Crimson Sweet in a monoculture. In some cases, Crimson Sweet can suffer very severe losses to wilt. Laboratory and greenhouse studies of the soil from the Crimson Sweet plots indicated that Crimson Sweet was uniquely able to promote the buildup of a biological control agent in the soil. We believe that the biocontrol agent is a soil fungus that is antagonistic to the Fusarium wilt fungus. We currently are studying methods to use this soilborne fungus to develop biological control procedures for Fusarium wilt to watermelon and other crops, if possible. We are also attempting to determine the mechanism of promotion of the biocontrol fungus by Crimson Sweet so that it might be incorporated into other watermelon cultivars.

BACTERIAL FRUIT BLOTCH OF WATERMELON In the 1989 watermelon season, a new bacterial fruit rot of watermelon was observed in commercial fields in Florida and many other states in the Eastern U.S. : The disease was devastating in several fields, especially in Florida and South Carolina. In some fields, as large as 10 acres, very few fruit were marketable. Symptoms. Symptoms on the fruit begin as small, greasy-looking, water-soaked areas of a few millimeters diameter and enlarge to dark-green, water-soaked lesions of several centimeters diameter with irregular margins. Lesions originate on the upper surface of the fruit and often cover a large percentage of the surface. At first, the lesions do not extend into the flesh of the melon, but are primarily surface lesions. As he lesions age, the melon surface often cracks and bacterial ooze can be seen on the fruit. Fruit decay follows in many of the melons and can be a problem in post harvest shipments. These symptoms are very similar to those first observed in 1967 and 1968 on the research farm to Leesburg, but they did not occur again after 1968. Similar symptoms have been observed in Australia and Guam, where the disease is called 'fruit blotch'. The fruit blotch bacterium also produces foliar symptoms on watermelon seedlings. Initial symptoms consist of water-soaking of the lower surface of cotyledons and leaves, followed by necrotic lesions frequently with chlorotic halos. The fruit blotch bacterium is very similar to a bacterium originally obtained from a watermelon seedling disease in Georgia in 1965. Epidemiology. Since watermelon fruit blotch is a new problem, very little is known about the ecology and epidemiology of the causal bacterium. The bacterium from seedlings in Georgia and fruit blotch in Guam was reported to be seedborne. However, the evidence for seed transmission was based primarily on seed inoculation by vacuum infiltration, or by immersion in a bacterial suspension. Seed transmission of the bacterium could not be demonstrated with commercial seed in Guam. The fruit blotch bacterium in Guam has been shown to survive in soil for 1-2 weeks and infect seedlings grown in the soil, but there is no information on survival from season to season in the soil or on weed hosts. With harvested watermelon fruit in laboratory or greenhouse inoculation experiments, wounding of the melon surface was necessary for symptom development. However, in a field experiment, symptoms developed 48-72 hours after inoculum was sprayed on the nonwounded melon surface. Wounding does not seem to be necessary for disease development under field conditions. Stomates on the fruit surface may serve as the port of entry for the bacteria. Control. Since the disease has occurred for only one year and so little is known about the epidemiology, it is very difficult to develop control strategies for watermelon fruit blotch. We can assume that some of the control measures employed for other diseases would also serve to reduce the risk from bacterial fruit rot for growers that had the disease last year. I would recommend plowing under debris from last year's field and planting this year's crop as far away from last year's field as possible. With direct seeded watermelon, remove any seedlings that have water- soaked of necrotic lesions during thinning and, with transplants, use only disease- free plants. Weed control, especially of volunteer cucurbits, may also be beneficial for fruit blotch control. Based on field observations, fruit of some cultivars, Crimson Sweet for example, appeared to be less susceptible to fruit blotch than fruit of other cultivars. In a field test at the research center in Leesburg, 21 cultivars were evaluated for susceptibility to fruit blotch. Watermelon fruit, ranging in age from 14 days post pollination to maturity, were inoculated by spraying the melon surface with inoculum consisting of approximately 5 x 105 bacterial cells per ml. The fruit were left on the vine and evaluated for symptoms at one and three weeks after inoculation. Water-soaked symptoms were first observed 48-72 hrs after inoculation. Differences in watermelon cultivar resistance to the bacterium were observed. The more resistant cultivars were Sangria, Sugar Baby, Crimson Sweet and Early Jubilee.

As a note of caution, these are the results of only one field test and cultivars that did not develop symptoms in this test could be susceptible under other conditions. However, growers that plan to plant watermelons near an area that had fruit blotch last year may want to consider, a less susceptible cultivar. CUCURBIT INSECT CONTROL S. E. Webb, Entomologist WILL STYLET OIL REDUCE THE SPREAD OF MOSAIC VIRUS IN WATERMELON? In north central Florida, watermelon mosaic virus is a consistent and serious problem. Because the disease is spread rapidly by many different kinds of aphids (not just those that actually reproduce on watermelon), it is extremely difficult to control. One possible way to reduce virus spread is to somehow discourage-aphids from even the short test feedings that can lead to infection or to somehow interfere with the actual process of acquiring and transmitting the virus. One material that seems to do this is a special mineral oil formulation which has been used to protect peppers and squash from similar aphid-transmitted viruses in Florida. Several growers in Marion County have been using this oil (JMS Stylet Oil) on watermelon. Other growers continue to use insecticides, hoping to reduce virus spread by killing aphids. To see if oil could really delay virus spread in a fast-growing vine crop we used stylet oil alone and in combination with endosulfan (Thiodan), a commonly used insecticide, in large plots of watermelon ('Charlee') and monitored the spread of virus every three days. Plots consisted of 10 rows of watermelon, 117 feet long with plants spaced eight feet apart within the rows to make it easier to keep track of individual plants. Oil was applied at four and five day intervals at 400 psi, using a boom sprayer with TX55 nozzles spaced eight inches apart. Endosulfan (2 pts per acre) was applied at approximately two week intervals, a total of seven applications in the fall of 1988 and a total of six applications in the spring of 1989. This spring, endosulfan applications were reduced to conform to the product label, i.e., no more than three applications per season. We trapped aphids in green tile traps, designed to sample aphids that would actually be landing in the crop. We also counted leaves and measured leaf area for the early stages of plant growth (up to 700 leaves per plant). In the spring of 1989, as part of a regular survey of local watermelon fields, we recorded virus incidence in eight areas of two adjacent fields located in Weirsdale; one field was being treated with stylet oil and the other was not. In the fall of 1988, virus symptoms appeared in the crop one month after planting. Actual infection must then have occurred only two weeks after planting (symptoms develop approximately 10 days to two weeks after infection). Figure 1 shows the development of disease. Even though aphid numbers were not high until late in the fall, many virus-infected weeds (and even some late-planted spring watermelon) were available as sources of virus. Plots not being treated and those treated with only endosulfan rapidly became infected. Oil-treated plots (with and without endosulfan) lagged behind by approximately one week (to 50% infection) but were eventually overwhelmed. Total weight of harvested melons did not differ among the treatments and quality was generally poor because of the earliness of infection. In the spring of 1989 virus appeared much later, almost two months after planting (Figure 2) and corresponded to a large flight of aphids. Sources of virus in the spring (as yet unknown) are much less common than in the fall. Oil again gave us a week to ten day delay in reaching 50% infection which resulted in a lower incidence of disease at harvest (approximately 65% vs 95%). More melons in the check and endosulfan-treated plots showed symptoms of virus infection but no significant differences in yield were found. This spring, we planted late (March 17) and virus appeared early, one month after planting. In addition, a large source of virus had built up two weeks prior to this, in the squash planting east of our watermelon plots. Again, oil-treated plots reached 50% infection one week later than plots not receiving oil, but this time, because of the earliness of infection, all plots will be 100% infected by harvest. As of this writing we have not yet begun to harvest and compare fruit damage. Although a one week delay is not impressive, that we could achieve this in a small plot situation is significant. Oil-treated plots were constantly exposed to aphids that picked up virus in adjacent untreated plots. In a large field situation, when the entire field is being treated, much longer delays should be possible, especially if oil is applied consistently right from the beginning of the spring growing season. The two fields we compared in Weirsdale showed vast differences in the amount of final disease. During the fall, however, there may be too many sources of virus for oil to be highly effective. The fall situation may be comparable to the situation in our small plots where virus built up in untreated plots next to treated plots. Endosulfan, although it did control melon aphids in the fall of 1988 (the only time we had problems with aphids attacking the crop), had little effect on virus spread, and in fact may have slightly increased the rate of spread, perhaps by irritating the aphids and causing them to move more rapidly from plant to plant. We saw little difference between the check and the insecticide-treated plots this year when we reduced the number of endosulfan applications from six to two. Thus, the use of insecticides in the spring crop does not seem justified unless insects causing direct damage to the plants are present, such as rindworms. The rapid growth and large surface area of watermelon plants make it difficult to protect them with anything that must be applied to leaves. Even young watermelon plants (prior to fruit set) have up to 45 square feet of leaf surface area (one surface only). Stylet oil, if used properly however, may delay the onset of virus epidemics, particularly in the spring when sources of virus are not as abundant as in the fall. The extra cost may be justified only when virus has consistently been a problem. We are trying to identify, through our surveys, the characteristics of virus-prone areas and are also attempting to correlate the first incidence of disease and peak aphid flights with winter and early spring weather conditions. This would allow a grower to better assess his or her risks of suffering a serious disease problem and thus provide a better basis for making a decision to use a costly control measure. Note: One recent problem with using stylet oil has been the loss of the EDBC fungicides for cucurbits. The remaining broad spectrum fungicide is not compatible (although Benlate and Ridomil are) with oil and should not be applied within two weeks of an oil treatment. In this part of the state, fungicides are not usually needed early in the season when stylet oil would be most useful so there may still be a way to obtain the benefits of both if the weather is cooperative.

Gray, Developmental Biologist Tissue and cell culture research combined with molecular genetics research is designed to accelerate development of virus resistant seedless varieties. ACCELERATED DEVELOPMENT OF SEEDLESS VARIETIES A tissue culture cloning system has been developed for rapid propagation of plants from selected individuals. Plants of diploid, triploid and tetraploid varieties produced with this cloning system have been grown to fruit in field tests. This technique allows newly developed tetraploids to be rapidly increased to the number of plants needed for triploid seed production. The time normally needed to increase tetraploid seed by conventional selling in order to provide plants for triploid seed production is circumvented. DEVELOPMENT OF VIRUS RESISTANT SEEDLESS WATERMELON Research to regenerate watermelon plants from cell cultures is being initiated at Leesburg in conjunction with molecular genetic research conducted by E. Hiebert at the Gainesville campus. This project seeks to use genetic engineering technology to place genes for a high degree of virus resistance into seedless watermelon. The rationale for this project rests on the facts that: 1) seedless watermelon will continue to fruit and produce up to triple the yield of seeded varieties if conditions for growth remain favorable and 2) endemic virus diseases cannot be adequately controlled and their presence causes fruiting to cease. Thus, with proper management of other diseases, higher yields should be obtainable from virus resistant seedless varieties than from seeded varieties. Collaborators to this project, Drs. G. E. Elmstrom, D. E. Purcifull and S. E. Webb, will be responsible for evaluating the resulting germplasm in the laboratory, greenhouse and field. SUMMARY Combination of tissue culture cloning and genetic engineering technology has potential to exploit the superior quality and yield characteristics of seedless watermelon. This will be accomplished by accelerating the normal method of variety improvement and by inducing viral disease resistance. IF j.

Tips for the Busy Mom to Get over the Overwhelming Power Outage
Being a mom is overwhelming no wonder you will find so many blogs talking about moms. Not only is there no guidebook to assist you along, there is also no shortage of responsibility as the role of mothers transcends pretty much every sub-category there is from cleaning the house to underpaid chef, taxi driver to laundry duty. You now agree that being a mom is stressful not to forget the kind of stress that they can experience when there is a blackout.
Power outages are a thing with most lasting a couple hours and some going for days which is why you need to be the most prepared mom there can ever be. Below are ways to prepare for the power outages.
Backup Power Source
While batteries are essential; they will not help you make the transition from being a mom to a blackout mom easily. This is where the generator guide comes in handy. While the generator may not light you your whole house, it can light up a few lights, the fridge freezer, the TV, a heater and your coffee pot for six hours a day on a gallon of gas. You don't have to panic with a generator in place.
Long-Lasting Foods
It doesn't necessarily mean that you fill your underground bunker with canned foods, but a selection of ready-to-eat and non-perishable foods makes your cooking easier. The only thing that your family need to remain comfortable is heat and food, so the next time you go grocery shopping, be sure to but enough canned food for your entire kitchen shelf. Buy canned meat, vegetables, instant coffee, beans, soups and anything else that you can think of including fun stuff like dips, chips and chocolate.
There is nothing that can be as romantic as the allure of a house lit with candles with the raging storms outside. But this is impractical, dangerous and inefficient as most house fires are caused by candles lit during power outages. What you need instead is a selection of flashlights and camping lanterns and numerous batteries. As long as you have placed them in a practical place you will be fine. If you have light then you have a chance for some fun, whether it is reading, playing board games or a game of hide and seek.
Be sure to Cozy Up
If the heating goes then your home stops becoming the chipper place it once was. That is why you need to have a stash of extra quilts and blankets somewhere so that you can all get snuggly during those long, cold nights. If you can find sleeping bags in your garage, then grab them too; anything that will hold the cold at bay is going to be a big morale booster.

I really didn't do much during my summer vacation, but if i did, i would have avoided as many County Fairs as possible. Put simply, I HATE county fairs for at least 8 reasons-
- You have to pay $15 to park your car in somebody's front yard that was illegally converted into a parking field.
- You end up eating a steady diet of funnel fries and deep fried butter knowing full well that in a few hours you'll end up bending down to tie your shoe laces, only to hear a hockey horn sound come out of your backside.
- You obsess over avoiding the guy who guesses people's weight.
- You feverishly jot down the insults that the water dunk tank guy hurls out. You hashtag them #jaymohrsports, then try to use them to win the THT contest…( That's a positive thing)
- You experience the thrill of winning a 10ft tall giant bunny rabbit only to realize that you can't walk around with it all day. You end up either going all the way to your car , that's parked a half mile away….or you give it to some cute kid while avoiding eye contact from the parents who hate you for doing that.
- You lose $40 on the 3 point contest, after which some snot nosed kid tells you that the rim isn't regulation size…in fact…you were trying to toss a basketball into a rim that could barely fit a soccer ball.
- You are coerced into getting on a roller-coaster that a dozen non union workers set up in about 15 minutes. You wonder out loud why OSHA has not acted on shutting down those death traps by now, but you are ignored. You however are comforted knowing that Obamacare's got your back…and i don't even know what that means.
Put simply, County Fairs aren't fair.
Did i mention Caricature Sketch Guy ?…Here's my take–

Types Of Skin
The skin type quiz has allowed you to effectively identify your skin type. As different skin types have different textures and characteristics, skin care regimes and also the choice of cosmetics should also differ. The different skin types are mainly:
1. Normal Skin 2. Oily Skin.3. Dry Skin.4. Combination Skin.5. Sensitive Skin6. Couperose Skin7. Mature Skin.
However, today's urban living conditions have also enabled us to segregate skin types further more into a Sun-damaged skin, Dehydrated skin, and Couperose skin. Genes, diet, stress level, medication and even your skincare regimen all determine how much oil your skin produces which furthermore determine your akin type to a large extent. We can also have another skin type which is Mature Skin type relating to the above 40 age group.
1.Normal Skin: This is the perfect, balanced skin type! It has a healthy glow with a fine texture and no open pores. It rarely develops spots or shiny areas. It is soft, smooth, pimple-free, clean and without flaky areas. In fact, it's quite rare to find a normal skin, especially as all skins tend to become slightly drier as you get older. The skin has a rosy color because the blood circulation is good and the skin is well moisturized. The pH of healthy normal skin is between 5.6 and 6; that is, it is slightly acidic. This acidic pH is due to the presence of acids in the sebum, sweat and keratin. It is therefore necessary to maintain the acidity of the skin. Thus, curds and lemon juice when applied on normal skins do wonders for this type of skin. The main concern of a normal skin is to maintain it and keep it functioning well. Although normal skin is definitely the easiest skin to take care of it does require the basic skin care. Just like any other skin type, normal skin still should be washed and moisturized daily in order to prevent dry skin or acne.
Tips For Normal Skin: 1. Do wash your face twice a day; once in the morning and again before you go to bed. Regularly clean your skin with a good cleanser. Remove all your makeup before going to sleep. Makeup will clog the pores if left on for too long, which can cause acne to develop. 2. For normal skin, cleansing, toning, nourishing should be done regularly. 3. Use light make up. If using heavy make up, avoid make up and let your skin breathe at least once a week. 4. Always Moisturize your skin. This will prevent dehydration and wrinkles. 5. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells, which in turn promotes the growth of new, healthy skin cells, and leaves your skin looking smoother. 6.Always use a sunscreen before going out in the sun. Use a moisturizer that has an SPF of at least 15 or use a sun screen in conjunction with your moisturizer. 7. Drink 8 glasses of water daily. 8. Use a face mask once a week. 9. Exercise regularly. 10. Follow a healthy diet as it also plays an important part, along with adequate sleep.
Don'ts For Normal Skin: 1. Don't Tan or allow over exposure to sun and harsh conditions.2. Don't smoke or drink alcohol.3. Don't wash your face with hard soaps. Use a good mild cleanser instead. 4. Avoid experimenting with too many cosmetics. Stick to the products which suit you best. 5. Avoid touching your face too often with dirty fingers. This will clog pores and cause acne and skin infections.
Home Face Packs For Normal Skin: Face packs rejuvenate a skin and help to increase circulation as well as tauten and cleanse the complete face. Face packs are also beneficial to remove impurities, dead skin cells and wastes from the skin. One can easily make face packs at home in a few minutes. The juice of fresh fruits and vegetables tone and provide enzymes that help balance and cleanse the skin. Smash or pulp the fresh fruit and vegetables, then add fruit pectin, agar agar, clay or oat flour to firm the mixture so it does not slide off the face. The face pack has property similar to toner. A pack should always be applied after applying a scrubber which opens the pore due to scrubbing effect. Therefore it is important to close down the pores with the help of face pack. Adding Honey underneath a mask treatment is delicious for normal skin, as it smoothens and nourishes the skin by regulating the skins moisture.
1.Papaya Mask: Mix Papaya pulp with half a teaspoon of raw milk and honey, rose water and apply all over face and neck, leaving on for 10 to 15 minutes. This is a great mask for dry dull skin. Papaya provides the necessary nourishment while milk and honey provide moisture to the skin making it soft and supple. 2.For Skin Rejuvenation: Mix in Sandalwood powder, turmeric powder and milk in equal proportions, apply over face and neck avoiding the eye area and eyebrows, wash with cold water after 15 minutes. This pack is best for skin rejuvenation and fairness. Turmeric helps get the skin fairer, sandalwood for coolness and milk for skin miniaturization. 3.Oatmeal And Rosewater Face Pack: 2 tablespoons fine oatmeal; 1 tablespoon honey; 1 tablespoon rose water. Blend the oatmeal with the honey and then stir in the rose water. Apply to the face and leave for 10 minutes. Remove with lukewarm water. 4.Instant Glow Pack: 2 spoons chickpea flour, half lemon, 1 spoon curd, 1i spoon honey mixed and applied on face and washed when dry will give an instant glow. 5.Cool Face Pack: Make sandalwood paste, add rosewater and apply it on your face. It has cooling effect. 6.Mud Face Mask: Take a spoonful of finely ground Fuller's Earth, a spoonful of rose water or cleansing-milk and prepare a thick paste. Apply a thick coat on the oily part of your face and a light coat on the dry part. Let it remain for ten minutes before washing it off with lukewarm water. 7.Herbal Cleanser: Mix together equal quantities of ground coriander, ground cumin, ground fenugreek, ground liquorice and chickpea flour and store in air tight containers. When apply take a small quantity and mix with water or rose water. Make a smooth paste and gently rub it onto your skin with small circular movements. Massage off with warm followed by cold water. 8.Simplest Facial: Milk and sugar make the simplest facial. Moisten face with water and massage gently. Clean with a teaspoon of sugar. Tone with a splash of water. Moisturize the skin from the top of boiled milk that's been left to cool. Leave this on for 2 minutes, then massage off with water. 9.Egg Mask: Mix an unbeaten egg, a few pinches of camphor and a teaspoon milk powder to make a paste and wash off after 20 minutes. 10.Apple Mask: 1 apple quartered, cored; 2 Tbsp honey and 1/2 tsp. ground sage. Chop apple in food processor. Add honey and sage to apple. Mix well. Refrigerate for 10 minutes. Pat mixture onto face with a light tapping motion, tapping until honey feels tacky. Leave on for 30 minutes. Rinse. 11. Moisturizing Pack: Mash or liquidize half an avocado pear with 1 tsp of sunflower oil. Apply the mixture to face and neck avoiding the eye and lip area. Leave it on for 10 minutes and wash off with lukewarm water. 12.Toner For Normal Skin: Chop up a small sized fresh cucumber and liquidize it with half a cup of yoghurt. Apply the mixture for 5-10 minutes, and wash off. The remainder can be stored in the fridge for future use.
Maintaining Normal Skin: Normal skin naturally has a good balance of oil and moisture levels. Your routine should include gently cleansing your skin to ensure surface grime and stale make up are removed, and to prevent a build-up of sebum. Then you should boost moisture levels with moisturizer to protect and pamper your skin. 1. Always remove eye-makeup carefully. Going to bed with your mascara still on can lead to sore, puffy eyes. Applying new makeup on top of old, stale makeup is unhygienic, too! Choose your cleanser according to whether you are wearing ordinary or waterproof mascara. 2. Splash your face with water, then massage in a gentle facial wash and work it up to a lather for about 30 seconds. It is a good idea to massage your skin lightly, because this will boost the supply of blood to the surface of your skin - which means a rosier complexion. 3. Rinse with clear water until every soapy trace has been removed from your face. Then pat your face with a soft towel to absorb residual water from the surface of your skin. Don't rub your skin, especially around the eyes, as this can encourage wrinkling. 4. Cool your skin with a freshening toner. Again, avoid the delicate eye area as this can become more prone to dryness. 5. Smooth your skin with moisturizing lotion. Dot on your face, then massage in with your fingertips using light upward strokes. This leaves a protective film on the skin, so make up can be easily applied and the moisture content is balanced.
Normal Skin Problems: May experience minor breakouts related to a "big night out", hormones, or stress. Watch for any premature aging under eyes, as this area tends to need more moisture due to lack of sebaceous (oil) activity; may experience minor breakouts relating to hormonal cycle. People with normal skin start showing signs of age and wrinkling sooner than others. Drink lots of pure water, eat a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables, fresh air and exercise are always beneficial, and always apply sunscreen, especially in the hotter months, as this is the best approach to prevent premature aging!

The Federal Trade Commission's revised Children's Online Privacy Protection Act Rule took effect on July 1, giving parents greater control over the online collection of their children's personal information. The modified rule, approved by the Commission in December 2012, widens the definition of children's personal information to include persistent identifiers such as cookies that track a child's activity online, as well as geolocation information, photos, videos and audio recordings. "At the FTC, protecting children's privacy is a top priority," said FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez. "The updated COPPA rule helps put parents in charge of their children's

IV Vitamin Therapy – What is it?
Intravenous therapy is a method used to deliver vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other important natural substances directly into the bloodstream. By bypassing the digestive system, this allows for 100% absorption of these vitamins and minerals as opposed to only 20% when taken orally. By getting the maximum absorption you will also receive maximum benefits and alleviation of common vitamin deficiency symptoms.
Immuno Boost
May be used as a rescue for the flu. Also great for those suffering from compromised immune system, auto immune disorders, seasonal allergies, infections and viruses. Great to boost your immune system before traveling and to prevent sickness.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C, or L-ascorbate, is an essential nutrient for a large number of higher primate species, a small number of other mammalian species (notably guinea pigs and bats), a few species of birds and some fish. The presence of ascorbate is required for a range of essential metabolic reactions in all animals and plants. It is made internally by almost all organisms, human beings the most well-known exception!
Ideal for toxicity, Hepatitis, immune system problems, cancer, fatigue, weakness, mono and other chronic viruses, Vitamin C is more than just orange juice. As with other infusions, our bodies would simply not tolerate digestion of high doses of Vitamin C, but by infusing this vitamin directly into the bloodstream we allow the body to consume higher doses for longer lasting effect.

Magnesium is a vasodilator and has been used as a migraine remedy for many years. Migraines are a common disorder in which debilitating pain and accompanying symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, reduce activity and productivity of sufferers. Many drugs used for the treatment of acute migraine attacks have many side effects, are not well tolerated, are ineffective in some patients and cannot be used during pregnancy or in patients with ischemic heart disease. Magnesium deficiency has been proposed to play a role in the pathophysiology of migraines and now natural magnesium infusions are becoming more popular than ever.

Add: Glutathione, mineral solution, sodium bicarbonate and amino acids
This is the body's strongest antioxidant and free radical scavenger. Use this for cancer, brain, heart and liver protection, cardiovascular issues and Lyme disease.
Glutathione is a small molecule made up of three amino acids, which exists in almost every cell of the body. However, before it can work effectively in the body it must be generated within the cell from its precursors. The presence of Glutathione is required to maintain the normal function of the immune system. It is known to play a critical role in the multiplication of lymphocytes (cells that mediate specific immunity) which occurs in the development of an effective immune response. Furthermore, the cells of the immune system produce many oxiradicals as a result of their normal functioning, resulting in a need for higher concentrations of antioxidants than most cells. Glutathione plays a crucial role in fulfilling this requirement.

"Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails." ~Proverbs 19:21
My story begins on Friday, August 1st, 2014, at 1:36 in the morning. I stepped out of my car and breathed in the fresh Wisconsin air. After spending two weeks in China on a missions trip, I had forgotten what it felt like to not be breathing in thick Beijing pollution 24/7. I looked up at the stars and the stars looked back at me, like we were old friends saying, "Nice to see you, it's been awhile." I did a jump/dance thing and squealed a little. In that moment, I had completely forgotten that I had been up for about 36 hours. Through a two-hour, thirteen-hour, and half-hour plane rides, an hour and a half long car ride from the airport, and many hours of layovers in Shanghai and Chicago, I felt alive. It didn't matter that I hadn't eaten anything in the past three days due to stomach sickness and fevers; I had enough energy to keep me going for at least 24 more hours (probably not but I felt like it at the time), because I was finally home.
I didn't even bother bringing my suitcase I had been living out of for two weeks into the house, I just ran for the door. Per my request, my mother had made me taco dip (with real Wisconsin cheese, something that was very lacking in China), ham pickle roll-ups, and homemade chocolate chip cookies. My mother had waited up for me and have already shoved a pickle in my mouth, I gave her the warmest hug I have ever given. "I'm so happy to see you!" I mumbled through the pickle. It was in that moment that I remembered my favorite Anne of Green Gables quote, "I've had a splendid time, and I feel that it marks an epoch in my life. But the best of it all was coming home."
As much as I wanted to tell my mom every detail that had happened over the past two weeks, she convinced me that I should probably try to get some sleep. Due to jet lag, I was only able to sleep until 7 am. Before going to China, I was a lost soul looking for a calling in life. I entered my senior year of high school in the fall of 2013 with an acceptance letter to Le Cordon Bleu, a culinary school in Minneapolis, MN, with the dream of one day having my own show on the Food Network Channel. I had developed that dream when I started watching stars like Giada De Laurentiis, Paula Dean, Bobby Flay, and Duff Goldman at age 12 rockin' it up on their own cooking shows. I started my senior year with a new confidence, because for the first time ever, I actually felt like I had my life together.
This new plan I had created for my life (go to culinary school, become a famous chef, meet a guy who would be so blown away by my cooking that he would marry me on site because I didn't have the good looks to get his attention) died suddenly about two months after I had received the acceptance letter. Our youth pastor Dan had recently announced that the youth would be going on a missions trip to China in July 2014. It had been a long journey for my friend Carley and I when it came to going on mission trips. Two of my brothers had gone on their first missions trips when they were twelve years old, and my sister as well as Carley's siblings had also gone on missions trips when they were young. The year Carley and I were finally able to go was the year going into our sophomore year (Summer 2011). This also happened to be the year that they decided to move the age limit up. Alas, we were once again too young to go, and our dreams of bringing the gospel to the ends of the earth would have to wait. Two years later, another youth missions trip was planned for Ecuador. However, it was not in God's plan for any of us to go. The plan ended up falling through, and once again, Carley and I were left waiting for the day we could finally do what we had been dreaming of doing since we were little. Later that year was when they announced the China trip. The only problem was, the trip was scheduled for the end of July, several weeks after classes started for Le Cordon Bleu. It didn't take me long to get over that fact that my life long dream of going on a missions trip wasn't going to happen. After all, I had other things to worry about, like applying for financial aid and scholarships (because that's obviously more important than serving God in Communist China). After telling my youth pastor that I was not able to go because of college, he looked me straight in the eye and said "Don't go." (As in, don't go to culinary school). Those may be two simple, little words, but for some reason they had a huge impact. I tried to say something back, but I honestly couldn't think of anything, so I just shut my mouth. It was like God was giving me a slap in the face, which was apparently what I needed to realize that I was going in the wrong direction. The next morning I called my best friend Katie and asked her to meet me at school early. She sat next to me in my car why I explained to her, through much pathetic sobbing and tears, that I didn't think God wanted me to go to Le Cordon Bleu and that He wanted me to go to China instead. I wanted to go to Culinary school just as much as I wanted to know what I was going to do after graduation. However, there was something that I desired even more, to follow God's will.
So there I was, sitting on my bed the morning after coming home from China with an idea. I felt the urge to apply at Southern New Hampshire University for their online creative writing program. My passion for writing started with The Magic Tree House series I read in first grade, and I always knew it would play a large role in my life. But is that what God wants? For me to be a writer? I thought. I didn't want to make the same mistake I did before, but I could not ignore my idea. This is what I told God: I am just going to go for it, and if it is your will, you will make it happen. It seemed very unrealistic anyways; I had only two weeks to apply, get accepted, register for classes, apply for financial aid, and come up with $2,000.00 to pay for the first term. God provided in amazing ways, and two weeks later I found myself reading and studying The Practice of Creative Writing, Writing Down the Bones, and On Writing Well.
I had spent most of my high school years trying to plan out my life, but it wasn't until I saw how God worked my schooling out that I realized that it's impossible to plan. I decided to forget about Culinary school because there was a still small voice telling me that it wasn't the right path. I decided to apply for Southern New Hampshire University on a whim because there was a still small voice that told me it was the right way to go. I surrendered it all and put it in His hands, knowing that it would either work out or it wouldn't. I felt peace in my heart that I hadn't felt with any of the other wild plans I had dreamed up (I left out the part about Human Recourse Management, that random Bible college in Colorado, and even that ranch in Montana) It was when I put my complete trust in God that he told me which way to go.
How should I know?
How should I know what I'm doing with my life?
I don't have to know,
It's okay not to.
But they never tell you that,
They tell you that you have to plan it out.
But I don't want to,
Because that's not living.
~Madeleine R Hodgett, A Celebration of Poets, 2014 Edition

South Asian Muslim American (SAMA) girls studied ethnographically in Chicago and more broadly in the United States negotiate these three components (South Asian, Muslim, and American) of identity across the spheres of home, Islamic institutions, and the public "American" realm. . Drawing on interviews and fieldwork at an Islamic school and within South Asian families and mosques, the authors illustrate how nascent "girl" power is evidenced in these contexts drawing on media representations, academic sources, and data drawn from participant observation. Sources of SAMA girls' expressions of confidence and power are selective use of identity markers, increased mastery of Islamic knowledge, and various subtle acts of resistance to norms imposed upon them within home and family interactions, Islamic spaces, and the American public sphere.

Think 'detail' and focus on the special touches that will give you the 'wow' factor. Choose a beaded sash or pearl trim for your dress or sumptuous antique jewellery that will shimmer as you walk!
Let me know if you need advice with the type of accessories that will complement your gown - I'm more than happy to make some suggestions.

I've been such a bad blogger lately! Sorry about that - I've been really busy with friends and my internship. I have a tutorial to make up for it :)
Nautical skittles! I really wanted to try out vertical lines, and it made me think of a nautical theme so I did an anchor accent as well. Here's the tutorial for how to freehand an anchor:
It's pretty straightforward, really.
For my thumb and middle finger, I used a base of China Glaze Sea Spray then topped it with two coats of Candeo Colors Divebomb. For my index finger and pink, I started with a base of OPI Goldeneye. I let that dry completely, then I used striping tape and China Glaze First Mate to create the vertical stripes.
For the anchor nail, I started with a base of China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise and used a makeup sponge to add a gradient of Goldeneye. I freehanded the anchor using First Mate and a striping brush. All of my nails are sealed with Seche Vite for smoothness and shininess :)
I really love how these turned out! Vertical stripes really appeal to me, and I think my accent nail is especially cute.

The Pac-10 Has Two Long-Term Football Television Agreements
Oct. 17, 2002
Pac-10 Television Agreementsby Duane LindbergPac-10 Conference
The Pac-10 has two long-term football television agreements. The broadcast network contract is with ABC Sports and runs through the 2006 season. The cable network deal is with Fox Sports Net, which also runs through the 2006 season.
The two agreements were negotiated in 1996-97. The two 10-year deals will provide the Pac-10 with excellent regional and national television exposure and a considerable revenue stream.
People often wonder how the Pac-10's televised games are selected. The process usually starts at least a year in advance. The Pac-10 football schedule is thoroughly reviewed by the television partners and potential adjustments are discussed and implemented to maximize television opportunities.
During the course of a season, ABC will televise 14 Pac-10. Fox Sports Net owns the rights to televise 18 Pac-10 games on an annual basis. Starting with the 2002 season, Fox Sports Net will sublicense five or six Pac-10 games per season to Turner Sports, which will air the games on TBS Superstation. When a Pac-10 team plays a non-conference opponent on the road (e.g., Arizona State at San Diego State), the game may be televised as part of the opponent's television package(s). The Arizona State at Nebraska game back on August 24, 2002, was an exempted pre-season contest arranged by an event organizer, who had secured a television agreement with ESPN.
The first required Pac-10 football television selection date prior to the season is May 1, when ABC must pick the games it will televise during the first three weeks of September and other 'selected' contests. The Stanford at Arizona State game on September 28, 2002, fell into this early ABC selection category due to its 12:30 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time start. Arizona and Arizona State home games in September are played at night unless all parties agree to move the game earlier, which is what occurred with the Stanford at Arizona State game.
Fox Sports Net must select the games it will televise during the first three weeks of September and other 'selected' contests by June 1. Fox Sports Net selected the Arizona State at Arizona game on Friday, November 29, 2002, as its season-ending Pac-10 presentation.
Entering the 2002 season, 13 of the 32 Pac-10 games that will be televised were selected early by ABC Sports, Fox Sports Net and Turner Sports. The other 19 games were scheduled to be picked 12 or six-days prior to the contests, with ABC having first selection. ABC Sports, Fox Sports Net and Turner Sports all want to broadcast the best possible games and will factor in the game results and other elements prior to making their in-season selections. While the institutions and Conference can provide input on the television game selections, the final decision lies with ABC, Fox Sports Net and Turner Sports.
Pac-10 football television selections remain open on November 2, November 9, November 16 and November 23. Arizona State has games scheduled on three of these dates.
Additional Arizona State television opportunities certainly exists in 2002, and would supplement the games already selected to be televised. Updates on Pac-10 football television can be found at www.pac-10.org.
