Expanded parking lots, more shops, additional landscaping with trees, outdoor plazas and an enhanced "premium" store were just some of new changes that representatives from Property Development Centers (PDC) presented to Eagle Rock residents about what they can expect from their Vons store on Figueroa Street and La Loma Road.
Presented by Councilman Jose Huizar, the Eagle Rock Chamber of Commerce, The Eagle Rock Association, the Eagle Rock Neighborhood Council and the PDC, this informational meeting was the first time that reps from the shopping store chain reached out to the community regarding their plans for the Vons store that was originally opened in 1966 as a Safeway store.
Indeed, PDC's Chief Operating Officer David Zylstra began the meeting apologizing for the absence of communications and expressed his hoped and determination that the evening would start a better dialogue between Vons and the community.
Zylstra outlined the history of the store as well as current plans to change, upgrade and add to the site, making it more, as he said, "a neighborhood shopping center." In addition to changing the configuration of the parking lot for spaces (which would result in adding up to 50 more parking stalls), the property will contain a series of ancillary tenant shops connected to the main Vons store as well as a stand-alone shop (or shops) that would be located on the corner of La Loma Road and Figueroa Street. The ancillary tenants will add about 14,000 square-feet of space while the stand-alone building is about 3,000 square feet.
No tenants have officially been announced, but Zylstra hinted that there is interest in establishing a café, a restaurant, personal care services, a hair salon, telecommunications and a financial institution. Zylstra wants to sign the tenants as soon as possible and expects to share that announcement with the community in the next couple of months.
When asked about the potential makeup of chain stores to independently owned shops, Zylstra estimated that 25 percent would be a national, 30 percent regional and the rest would be neighborhood-based.
Community members had numerous questions about traffic flow from La Loma and Figueroa, the positioning of the stand-alone building's front , and if the alley that runs parallel to La Loma will once again be a "hidden" way for Eagle Rockians to access the store. (Yes, that alley will still be functioning when the work is completed.)
The La Loma access was of particular concern since that street has historically been crowded and congested, and often MTA drivers and their busses are resting near the CVS exit. Zylstra went through a series of possible solutions to easing that congestion from adding a right turn only lane to widening the street by six feet to accommodate the traffic flow.
Zylstra revealed that the new store will establish a security system so shopping carts won't be able to leave the premises, thereby lessening the incident of abandoned shopping carts. That remark got a nice round of applause.
Proposed landscaping will include more trees not only on the outer limits of the area, but also inside of the parking lot itself. Sycamores and Australian willows were the two types of trees mentioned along with a variety of drought tolerant plants, shrubs and ground cover. One community member was happy to hear that society garlic would NOT be part of the plant palette.
In addition to the outside changes, Vons itself is slated to undergo enhancements, making it one of the few "premium" Vons in the area. Zylstra shared glamorous renderings of remodeled pharmacy, produce, beauty care and coolers sections. Also, the store will offer expanded organic and gluten-free offerings.
One community member asked if the premium store meant that prices will go up. ("No," was the response.)
All in all, the big question of the night was how much longer will the construction take and when will the grand opening of the new store be? Zylstra once again estimated that it will be at least another 3 months to finish the parking lot and 5 months for building and store enhancements. If all goes well, he said, the new Vons neighborhood center would be open for business in October of this year.
"And that's when you will throw a big party for us in Eagle Rock, right?" someone asked. "Absolutely," he said.

A lot of people exercise to get fit and stay healthy but little do they know the wonders it can do to revitalize their sex lives. Studies have shown that people who get adequate exercise report better sex and more sex. By hitting the gym a couple times a week you'll not only be taking care of your health and body but improving your sex life as well. The article below contains all the benefits of how exercise can improve males and females sexual activity.
Exercise increases Confidence
Exercise can greatly increase your confidence. People who exercise have a better view of their body image versus people who do not exercise. Those who are more physically fit rate their desirability higher than those who do not exercise.When you are comfortable with your body and the way it looks, sex is more relaxed and enjoyable.
Exercise improves sexual activity
In an issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, scientists found that lack of exercise and physical activity among people resulted in poor health, less enjoyable sex and even sexual dysfunction. Another study showed that men and women who commit their time to exercise report higher sexual performance. Men experience more stamina and women experience quicker arousal.
Exercise helps maintain Sex Drive as you Age
Sex is not only for the young but as you get older, you may experience decreased sex drive and while sex may not be same as it once was when you were in your 20′s, there is still room for improvement. Seniors who exercise a few times a week report the same amount of sexual pleasure they once had when they were in their 40′s. Exercise is a great way to extend the life of your sexual age.
Exercise releases endorphins
Endorphins are released in many ways. However it happens, it always feels good. Every time you engage in exercise and sex your body releases endorphins. Depending on how intense the release the more pleasure you will experience. Men who exercise are less likely to experience sexual dysfunction than men who do not engage in exercise. Women who are more physically active and keep to an exercise regime experience an increased sexual appetite over women who do not exercise
Exercise allows you to try new things in the Bed Room
People who exercise have more options when it comes to sex. People who are in shape are more physically able to try different positions that require strength and endurance. Exercising helps build these two components which can translate into new and exciting positions in the bed room.
If better health isn't a big motivator for you to start to exercise perhaps better sex can encourage you to start exercising. Simply put exercising can improve males and females sexual activity. It's hard to ignore the benefits of exercise and physical activity so why not kill 2 birds with one stone by exercising and reaping the benefits it has on your body and sex life?
Kim tells us about her 1st 3some with a mature couple
A mature couple called Doug and Diana had been Kim's friends ever since she was sixteen. She used to make an extra bit of cash by baby-sitting in the evenings after school, and a friend of her mum's had given her name to Doug and Diana. Soon she was baby-sitting for them twice every week, and they always made a point of chatting to her when they got in from their evening out, before politely driving her home. Some of Kim's friends told stories about the dads they baby-sat for being creepy or trying to touch them in the car, but Doug was never like that, and Diana gave her advice on clothes and makeup and boys almost like an older sister or a second mum.
She hadn't seen them much during her time at uni, but they kept in touch through cards and emails, and when she ended up living back home with her mum after she graduated, Diana called to invite her to dinner. It soon became a semi-regular date and spending time with Doug and Diana was as much fun as she remembered.
After a few of these dinners, though, it began to bother Kim that Doug and Diana never seemed to notice that their former babysitter had grown up into an attractive young woman. It would be nice if they at least acknowledged that there was a pretty girl sitting at their table. She started dressing more daringly for their dinners, drank wine, talked openly about her boyfriends, but it didn't seem to make much difference.
In desperation, she even started flirting a little with Doug, but he seemed oblivious – that was, until one night when the two of them were sitting on the sofa while Diana made some coffee, and Doug quite casually put his hand on her thigh.
Kim had frozen, not knowing what to do, and before she had made up her mind how to react, to her horror Diana had walked in with a tray of coffee cups.
She didn't scream or shout or do any of the things that Kim would have expected. Instead she put the tray calmly down on the table and said, "Don't look so shocked, Kim. Isn't that why you've been flirting with him for weeks?"
Too humiliated to notice that Diana didn't sound angry, Kim had fled the house in tears, mortified that she had been caught flirting with Doug in front of his wife and feeling guilty that she'd ever tried to get him to notice her.
A few days later some flowers arrived for her with a note from Doug and Diana asking if she would meet them for coffee so they could talk about what had happened. To her surprise, the first thing Diana did after she sat down in the cafe with them was apologise. "I'm really sorry, Kim. We handled it badly."
Diana went on to explain that she and Doug had at times during their marriage invited a third person to participate in their sex lives. Kim's eyes went as round as saucers at that, but Diana kept calmly on, saying that it was a way for them to make things more exciting without threatening the strength of their relationship. She said that ever since they had rekindled their acquaintance with Kim as an adult, they had talked about how much they wanted Kim to join them at least once, but they had handled it badly when Kim seemed to be flirting with Doug.
Diana had looked over the table at Kim with a nervous smile. "So what do you think?"
Kim hadn't known what to think, but she knew she wasn't going to reject the idea out of hand. They talked over coffee for a long time, with Diana explaining that mainly what they wanted was for both of them to be able to touch her, and for Doug to have sex with her while Diana watched. Doug made it clear that he wouldn't be seeing Kim without Diana present, and both of them emphasised that it was completely up to Kim and that they would carry on being her friends no matter what happened. Everything they said made Kim feel more comfortable, and the more she relaxed, the more she realised that this was exactly what she wanted.
She'd never forget their first time together …
Kim's reverie was interrupted as she pulled into the driveway outside her house. Grabbing her bags from the back, she hurried inside, dumped her shopping and stripped off her clothes to jump into the shower. As the hot water flooded out to engulf her body, she closed her eyes and thought back to the first time she had gone to Doug and Diana's house for more than dinner.
Kim had been really nervous, not sure what to expect, so Diana offered her a massage to put her at her ease. The three of them went out to the shady back deck, and Kim shyly pulled the straps of her top down to leave her shoulders bare and laid down on her stomach on a sun lounger. While Doug watched, Diana rubbed some cocoa butter into her hands and began to smooth it into the skin of Kim's back, neck and shoulders (to this day, Kim couldn't smell cocoa butter without getting a shiver of arousal). Her hands were warm and strong, and under her experienced touch Kim's nervousness and the tension in her muscles had melted away bit by bit. So gently that Kim didn't even notice, her top had been tugged down to her hips so that her entire back was exposed to Diana, who took full advantage of the fresh young skin available to her, stroking and massaging and generally making sure that every inch of Kim's back felt the caress of her gentle fingers.
Kim, floating now on a cloud of pleasure, felt Diana's hands leaving her back before they appeared again on her ankles, playfully tickling the soles of her feet to make the younger woman giggle and wriggle. Diana worked her way up Kim's calves, kneading and stroking, and then up the back of her thighs, higher and higher towards the hem of her short skirt. With every stroke now, her fingertips probed lower until they were sliding over Kim's inner thighs. Kim, shaking now with arousal, tried to hold herself still as possible, not wanting Diana to stop; tried to keep still as Diana's hands explored further and further, reaching up under her skirt until her fingers brushed lightly against the damp cotton of Kim's knickers.
"My goodness," Diana said softly. Kim craned her neck to look round at her, and saw that the older woman was smiling. She had smiled back, shyly, ready for more.
"I think she's relaxed now, darling," Diana called to Doug.
Doug came over and joined them, gently urging Kim to roll over on to her back. He leaned over and kissed her, at the same time reaching between her legs to feel the evidence of her arousal for himself. "I think you're right," he said to Diana, kissing her too.
As Diana moved to a nearby seat, close enough for Kim to feel her presence, Doug undressed Kim, piece by piece, pausing frequently to kiss and caress her so that by the time Kim was just down to her knickers, she was too aroused to wait any longer and ripped them off herself, opening her legs to Doug.
He had fucked her slowly, that first time, sliding himself in inch by inch and holding himself motionless for long minutes while he played with her nipples or her clitoris. It was a whole new sensation to Kim, whose sexual experience was limited to impatient men her own age. So was writhing helplessly, moaning and begging to be fucked, which was the state Doug had her in after what felt like hours of this slow teasing. As Doug finally gave into her pleas and started to fuck her properly, Kim had started to cum there and then, only vaguely aware of Diana leaning over to tease her finger into Doug's anus before the best orgasm of her life overtook her.
Thinking back over that first time on the deck had made Kim extremely turned on. She had to cum right now. Bracing herself with one hand against the wall, she reached between her legs with the other and found her clit, rolling it gently between her fingers, making herself shudder. She wanted more though, and fast; leaning back against the wall, she slid one finger, then two, inside herself and worked them rapidly, tapping lightly on her clit with her thumb. Before long, she was gasping and shaking as she came there and then in the shower, the warm water cascading down between her legs.
Strangely, Kim's orgasm only made her hungrier for the greater pleasures she was sure the evening had in store. She finished showering and dressed quickly, putting on a simple, lightweight blue dress that suited the warm evening, flat sandals and drying her blonde hair; she had recently had it trimmed back to just past her shoulders in preparation for her trip. The ends brushed her shoulders teasingly as she hurried back to her car, eager to get over to Doug and Diana's house as soon as possible; she was now an hour and a half later than she'd said she would be!
"I'm so sorry!" she apologised as Doug opened the door to her. "I had this nightmare day, first Mrs. Peterson from next door wouldn't go away and then Todd's car broke down and I had to -"
"It doesn't matter," Doug told her reassuringly, chuckling at her flood of words. He kissed her cheek lightly, smelling as good as always; she was going to miss that smell of his aftershave in Europe. "You're here now!"
"I'm sorry, Kim, we had to eat without you," Diana apologised as Kim sat down with her at the dining table and Doug poured a glass of wine. "The lamb was getting dry." She grinned. "But you didn't really come round here for the food, did you?"
Kim blushed and took a sip of her wine.
Doug touched her shoulder gently. "Maybe Kim would rather go straight to dessert."
"Sure!" Kim looked around, but she didn't see anything that looked like dessert. "Er … Where is it?"
Diana winked and got up from her chair. "In the kitchen. You'll see."
Obediently, Kim followed Doug and Diana into their large kitchen. She still couldn't see the promised dessert, until she noticed that their wooden table – usually piled high with papers and magazines – had been cleared off for the occasion. The only thing that was standing on the table was a bowl full of strawberries, a can of whipped cream and a smaller bowl full of powdered sugar. "Oh!" she said, realising.
"If we can't have a last dinner with you, we can at least have dessert off you," Doug teased. He cupped his hand around her ass and squeezed gently. "You'd better take that pretty dress off, or it'll get ruined."
No longer shy and already turned on, Kim slipped the dress off her shoulders and let it fall to the floor.
"No underwear? Naughty girl," Doug chided as Kim hopped up on to the table. "I hope you're not going to forget all about us when you're sleeping your way around Europe."
Kim giggled. "Never." She watched, her eyes bright, as Diana lifted a strawberry to her lips and held it gently between her teeth.
"Hungry?" Doug asked.
Kim didn't need telling twice. Naked, she leaned forward and met Diana's lips with her own, opening her mouth to accept the strawberry. Her teeth bit into it, and there was a moment of sweetness before Diana pushed the rest of it into Kim's mouth with her tongue. Kim sucked on the strawberry and on Diana's tongue, sighing with pleasure at the juices and the softness of Diana's lips. She swallowed and opened her mouth again as Diana pulled away and Doug did the same thing. This kiss was messier, and stray juices from the strawberry dripped down from their mouths, trickling down Kim's neck. Diana bent to follow the juice with her tongue as Doug fed her another strawberry.
"Mmmm," Kim sighed, swallowing the sweet fruit. "I love the way you serve strawberries."
"They're even better with cream," Doug replied, gently pushing Kim down flat on the table with her legs dangling over the edge and putting a cushion underneath her head. He reached for the can of whipped cream and squirted some in a rough spiral around one of Kim's nipples, then the other, then in a long wiggly line stopping just above her mound. He smiled down at Kim. "Good enough to eat."
Standing on either side of the table, Doug and Diana bent their heads to lick up the cream, using long strokes of their tongues over Kim's breasts and circling her hardening nipples. Occasionally, they stopped to dip a strawberry in the cream and feed it to each other or to Kim, using her body like a combination of banquet table and feast. Kim, her senses reeling from the erotic stimulation, felt like she was enjoying a delicious, decadent treat, like the richest, filthiest chocolate cake, and the more she got, the more she wanted.
As they worked their way slowly down her body towards her pussy, her excitement mounted. Doug licked off the last of the cream as Diana reached for a large, ripe strawberry and balanced it on top of Kim's pubic mound. She smiled at Doug. "You first."
Doug bent his head and bit gently at the strawberry, taking small nibbles from it, in no hurry. "You're getting her all juicy," Diana chided softly as the sweet berry juice trickled down over Kim's pussy lips.
"In more ways than one." It was Doug's turn to reach for a strawberry, and this time, he gently pushed it in between Kim's pussy lips. Kim caught her breath as he lifted his head to smile at Diana. "Your turn."
Diana moved round to stand in between Kim's legs, bent down, and gently nuzzled her nose in between Kim's pussy lips, breathing in the scent of Kim's arousal. She nudged at the strawberry with her tongue, ignoring Kim's plaintive moan, and licked at it from one side, then the other, making Kim's pussy swell and open even further. She nibbled at the strawberry like Doug had done, then lifted her head to swallow it.
"Oh, my, there are a lot of juices down here," Diana said softly. "I think I'm going to have to clean it up."
She bent her head and started to lick Kim's pussy in earnest, dragging her tongue slowly along the labia, using the tip of her tongue to trace its folds, before pushing it inside Kim's tunnel and circling slowly around. Kim gasped and cried out, wiggling her hips; torn between prolonging this heavenly stimulation and wanting Diana to suck her clit, she didn't notice Doug leaving her side and moving around behind Diana until she heard the older woman moan in a way that said he'd penetrated her from behind, a moan that sent vibrations right through her delicate tissues. She could feel the rhythm of Doug thrusting into Diana in the way that Diana's face pressed deeper and harder against her, Diana's tongue finding Kim's clit and sucking hard against it as she moaned again, and Kim wailed as she came, warm honey flooding her veins.
Diana rode out the orgasm with her, eagerly licking up the new wetness that flooded Kim's pussy, then lifted her head to smile at the shaking girl, her own body still swaying from Doug's fucking. "More?"
"Oh, yes," Kim gasped. "Please."
Diana smiled again and straightened up, twisting in Doug's arms to share a long kiss with him as he cupped her breasts in his hands. Then she pulled away from her husband, and pushed him forward into the space she had formerly occupied in between Kim's legs. Kim caught her breath as Doug's hard cock brushed against her thigh. "Please," she said again.
Obeying her wishes, Doug pushed his cock inside her, and Kim let out a long sigh of satisfaction that turned into a cry of surprised pleasure as Doug hooked his hands under her knees, pulling her closer against him, and began to fuck her with the long, hard strokes she loved the most. Diana moved back round to the side of the table, licked her fingers and dipped them in the sugar bowl until they were coated in powdered sugar. Kim opened her mouth and sucked on them greedily, so close already to another orgasm, swirling her tongue around Diana's fingers to the rhythm of Doug's thrusts. She knew without being told that Diana's other hand was playing with her own pussy, and reached out her own hand blindly; Diana grasped it and guided it into the slippery wetness and warmth that said the older woman was as close to coming as Kim was. As Kim's toes began to curl, she wrapped her legs around Doug's waist, urging him on, and as Diana's pussy convulsed around her fingers, she felt Doug begin to shudder and knew that they were all coming together, her last thought before she spasmed around Doug's cock and abandoned herself to her own orgasm.
Later, after the shaking had subsided, Diana brushed Kim's sweaty hair away from her face and asked, "So are you going to miss us in Europe?"
Kim smiled sleepily up at her friends. "Of course I am. I don't know anyone in Europe who serves strawberries like that!"

Up all Saturday night in a very demeaning minor "boot floppies monkey" rôle helping mjg59 with Frankenstein's own OS project, Debian-BSD. He now seems to have an installable system working and the ability to download such packages as are available vi apt.
On Sunday, attended NTK's Festival thing. Crazy day. Learnt a lesson in media communications stuff - I was called up on stage to talk about the DMCA/EUCD, and was interviewed by Dave Green, who had been doing stand-up comic schtik for about half an hour by this point. I had half been expecting this, but a programme change meant that it happened an hour before I was expecting it, and I didn't have anything prepared to say, so I probably came across as totally deadpan. In the middle of the first long sentence I uttered, after about twenty seconds, Danny O'Brien quietly and very usefully commented that I was probably boring the audience (or at least a substantial section thereof) with detail, and he was right. Note how long the sentences in this paragraph have been. I even talk like that.
So I guess it's time to concentrate on thinking up some punchy short-and-to-the-point messages about the EUCD. This method of communication - getting the point across efficiently and making the best use of people's attention while you still have it, is something I need to learn, and has been the theme of this weekend. On Saturday I was chatting to someone I knew from Cambridge who'd gone off to Harvard, where there's a very different style of education - a lot of what the public policy students produce as written work is two-page policy proposals, rather than the sorts of five or six page essays they do in Arts at Cambridge. Tristan was asking "how can they do justice to these complex issues in two pages?", but he explained that really this was all good practice for what a lot of these students would be going on to do.
So, efficient explanation, or summary, is what it's about.
This is now about to turn into a cyberactivist namedropfest. The previous day (Friday), jtjm and I had been in London to meet Cory Doctorow of the EFF and the NTK guys. Cory was trying to convey the idea that lawyers should not be allowed near a press release, as they'd diminish its effectiveness by quadrupling the size with disclaimers and pathological corner cases. Sounds a bit like software engineering / debugging to me :) . I spent that night worrying about the moral hazard of all this - how much detail can you omit before it starts to get dishonest? how easy is it to navigate a way through all the necessary compromises without compromising yourself?

"They laughed last spring when I spread 60 bales of spoiled hay on my small (600 square feet) Connecticut garden," says Harold J. Ettelt, "but they're not laughing now!"
Our house was built on the site of an old rock and gavel quarry and, three years ago when we moved in, its backyard was a sloping and crabgrass-infested semi-desert. I leveled out the slope as best I could when I enlarged the building's basement but, needless to say, the cobbley fill that I spread on the yard didn't improve its fertility a great deal. (Or at all!)
"What this backyard needs," I told myself, "is anything organic that we can put our hands on." And—over the next two years, by using the town dump as a leaf, grass clipping, etc., supply depot and our Opel sedan for a pickup—we man aged to turn a few inches of the near-sterile dirt into a fairly good layer of topsoil. Good enough, at any rate, to grow a reasonably respectable garden.
Unfortunately for that garden, however, my wife soon talked me into building her some raised flowerbeds (beautiful, stone-lined beds made with all the rocks and boulders I'd dug out of the cellar and the backyard). And once those beds were finished, they had to be filled with something. And that "something" turned out to be my vegetable patch's precious topsoil . . . all of it, right down to the rocky clay underneath.
Well, I certainly didn't begrudge my better half that fertile dirt because I knew that her flowers needed good soil and that, once she'd planted her perennials, she wouldn't be able to dig them up every year to add humus. Besides, she likes flowers better than I like vegetables. Still, there was no denying that her passion for blossoms had moved my gardening right back to where I'd started. And I was in no mood to spend two more years regaining the ground (literally!) that I'd just lost.
I had almost given up hope of exercising my green thumb when a listing in the Pennysaver— a local advertising throwaway—saved the day. My postman, it seemed, had just what I needed: 60 bales of old hay that he wanted to sell at a reasonable price. I bought it all and he delivered the "spoiled hay" ("organic mulching material" to me) to my door.
Although I appreciated the delivery, I began to think it had been a mistake when the mailman looked over my 70 X 100-foot lot. "You mean you're going to spread all 60 bales on this little place?" he asked.
"Well, no," I replied. "Actually I'm only going to mulch about 600 square feet of garden space out back."
The postman, to say the least, was skeptical of my plans. And when some of my neighbors saw all that organic material stacked up in my drive and learned that I intended to put a whole big bale of the hay on each 10 square feet of vegetable patch, they were even more skeptical. A few, in fact, busted right out laughing!
I took some of the edge off at least the fellow-next-door's merriment by letting him pile my hay around his chicken house. (The bales kept his flock cozy at the same time that I regained the use of my driveway, so we both came out ahead.) And I kinda stayed out of everyone else's sight until winter blew itself away and I could get out into the garden again.
And that's exactly where I was bright and early the following spring. First I removed a two-inch layer of rather lifeless soil from the 600-square-foot vegetable patch. (This was very heavy work which was made no lighter by the fact that I separated out the larger stones and rocks—which were later used in a dry well—as I went along.) I then divided each of the bales of hay into quarters and laid the squares of compressed mulch side by side over the whole garden. And finally, I respread the two inches of dirt (that I had removed earlier) right over the top of the thick mats of organic matter. This meant that my vegetable plot's profile consisted of heavy, rocky, mineral subsoil . . . covered by a dense eight-inch layer of hay . . . and topped with two inches of heavy, not-so-rocky, mineral subsoil. Some garden!
By May, when I had become quite anxious to push some seeds into the ground, I was somewhat dismayed to find that the plugs of hay—after a month and a half in the earth—hadn't even begun to rot down. (Walking across the treated area was like stepping on a mattress.) But I pushed on regardless.
As supports for my anticipated tomato crop, I sunk several eight-foot-long 2 X 4's, spaced only two feet apart, into the ground. More 2 X 4's—these about three feet long and 18 inches apart—were driven in as stakes for my peppers. (I tend to crowd things a little since I have such a small garden.)
Once again, I found myself running head-on into skepticism. "No one around here stakes tomatoes with 2 X 4's," I was told. And peppers don't grow large enough to need staking at all!"
I allowed that, "It doesn't take any more effort to install a large stake than it takes to put in a small one . . . yet the big stake'll do the little one's job, but not vice versa ." My reasoning stifled the critics . . . although I noticed that they continued to smile a little around the edges.
Uncomposted hay or no, when May 15 rolled around I felt that I just had to put something in the ground. So I set out my tomato plants (Rutgers, Fantastic, Beefmaster) and my peppers (Midway, Early Canada Bell) and some Red Rock cabbage. I dug right through the two inches of soil and partly set the plants in the hay underneath. (What else could I do?)
So much for my started plants (I figured they'd simply have to take their chances). But what about the seeds I wanted to get into the ground? I was actually ashamed to cover them with the pulverized rock that passes for soil in my neighborhood . . . so I bought a bag of topsoil at the five-and-ten and sprinkled its contents over my rows of pea, spinach, lettuce, squash, and bean seeds. Then I got what mulch I could find at the dump, spread it around over my purchased topsoil . . . and waited to see what the summer would bring.
Well, it's mid-August as I write this . . . and I'm not waiting any longer. I'm eating!
Those tomato plants that I staked with 2 X 4's have grown well past the six-foot mark (I'm now lacing them from stake to stake to keep them off the ground). And their yield has been fantastic! We're overrun with so many tomatoes that we've been forced to can the juicy red fruit just to save freezer space.
It's the same story with squash. In fact I finally ripped out half the zucchinis after we'd frozen our sixtieth quart (and I was beginning to think we'd turn green if we ate any more of the vegetable fresh). And the peppers! They've developed into full fledged bushes. (I actually had to restake them when they outgrew their original "unnecessary" 2 X 4 supports), and we're giving away a lot of peppers.
Most of the rest of the garden did just as well. We're presently eating our second crop of beans and the third is about to blossom where I pulled out the zucchini. Our peas (Lincoln) grew into a miniature jungle in late spring and I've just put in the fall crop. The red cabbage is pleasingly compact, with heads weighing in at about five pounds. Our lettuce (black seeded Simpson) inundated us in the spring, the second planting is still feeding us adequately (even though we've had a heat wave), and the third sowing is just coming up. And talk about horseradish! The roots I planted for my father-in-law are already over three feet tall.
Our beets, carrots, and onions also did well but—to tell the truth—we've had a few clunkers too. The cauliflower, for instance, got big but did not head (the story of my life).
And the spinach was tasty, but small (the other story of my life). All in all, however, I certainly can't complain. The harvest from our garden has been so bountiful that [1] we've been forced to buy a brand-new vegetable cookbook, [2] we're now making noticeably fewer trips to the supermarket, and [3] we've been asked by friends and neighbors—who, by the way, aren't laughing anymore—to write down the "secrets" of our success.
Well maybe we were just lucky, but the only "secret" we have is hay. Lots and lots of hay. It may never work again the way that eight-inch-thick layer of hay worked this year . . . but it certainly has worked this time around. For sheer results from a first-year garden in "totally worthless" soil, you'll have to go some—I believe—to beat our "hay miracle

Two feuding providers of real estate data are joining forces after the agents they represent stepped in and seized control.
Loveland-based IRES, a multiple listing service (MLS) serving primarily Broomfield, Boulder and northern Colorado, will merge with Greenwood Village's REcolorado, the larger of the two MLS with a footprint that covers metro Denver and Broomfield.
Real estate agents pay to subscribe to one of the two providers to view and post homes for sale. The two services have been sharing data since 2003, so agents in the overlapping markets of Broomfield and Boulder County could pay only once and see listings in both systems.
But that agreement broke down last year. REcolorado made an unsolicited, $3 million bid to buy IRES in December of last year, which IRES rejected. Two months later, REcolorado announced it would end a data sharing agreement with IRES in March.
"All of us as realtor members were highly discouraged," said Kelly Moye, a Westminster-based Re/Max Alliance agent and president of the Boulder Area Realtors Association. "(We) had to join both systems, which cost us a lot of money and time."
Facilitators were brought into try and help the two companies reach an accord. But those negotiations only served to push them farther apart, Moye said: "It's almost like West Side Story. You're on the other side of the tracks and all you hear is rumors about how bad the other group is."
It was at that point that the realtor associations stepped in. Three groups from Denver, Aurora and the south metro own REcolorado; five groups from Fort Collins, Greeley, Longmont, Boulder and Loveland-Berthoud own IRES.
"All the sudden, we realized we're shareholders: we're the owner of these companies," Moye said. "So we approached IRES and REcolorado and said, 'We are not ok with this. We're going to merge.'"
A new facilitator was brought in and the deal was reached. Pending shareholder approval, it should close by the end of the year.
"This is keeping the best of both organizations," said Kirby Slunaker, CEO of REcolorado. "A single MLS for the Denver metro and northern Colorado (is) what's best."
Lauren Hansen, CEO of IRES, deferred to Moye for comments
Not all agents are pleased with the outcome. Ron Rovtar, a Louisville-based agent, said he is skeptical about the merger. He and other realtors have expressed distrust of REcolorado and fear that the interests of IRES members will not be heard in a larger entity.
"I don't know that bigger is always better," he said. ""The tail can sometimes wag the dog, but it usually is better to be another dog."

With recreational marijuana use illegal in all US states, Americans are either forced to go through underground sources at home or travel across borders to obtain and use the drug. Some places have significantly decriminalized marijuana or have turned a blind eye to personal use, encouraging travelers from around the globe to visit.
To get a sense of the world's top marijuana destinations, CNBC.com asked Danny Danko, senior cultivation editor at High Times Magazine, to give his picks on the world's top travel spots.
Considering factors of availability, tolerance, activities, popularity and overall marijuana culture, Danko ranks the locations according to aspects that make for a favorable marijuana-smoking environment. CNBC.com conducted additional research, including reviews from underground marijuana ratings website WeBeHigh.com.
So, what are the world's top marijuana travel destinations? Click ahead to find out!

Travis' Note: Today's guest post comes from our friend and colleague Megan Carter. More details on Megan and her work can be found at the bottom of this post.
I am hoping that researchers and the public at large are starting to get past the 'blame the victim' perspective of obesity. True, choice and preference obviously have something to do with it, but we as individuals live and interact in complex environments. Behaviours like sedentarism and eating junk food may be natural responses to opportunities and barriers that are structured by the places in which we live, work, play, or go to school. And not everyone is likely to be equally affected – protected or prone depending on things such as genes, age, sex, socioeconomic status, cultural upbringing, and the like. We need to consider the context in which people live their lives. If not, obesity prevention and treatment efforts are akin to throwing people back into the fire.
Humans, by nature, are social animals, so one such contextual factor that has garnered a lot of attention in the field of place and health is social capital. It refers to networks of social relationships that people have and the associated norms of <warranted> trust and reciprocity (gift giving with the expectation of receiving) (1). Social capital can work at the individual level, but also through collective or group-level mechanisms (2). These group-level workings may be most relevant for the development of obesity, since buying and eating food , as well as being physically active, often (but obviously not always) take place in shared spaces, such as neighbourhoods.
There is already a vast literature demonstrating an association between low collective social capital and adverse health outcomes such as delayed child development, child and adolescent behaviour problems, stress and isolation, violent crime, and increased mortality (3). A newer body of research is emerging now, suggesting that low collective social capital may be related to obesity and even related diseases such as hypertension (4).
Social capital in a collective or community context is often referred to as 'collective efficacy,' which is used to describe a number of social processes that may affect health (5). In short, it is the social cohesion (connectedness/togetherness) among neighbours (or members of a community) combined with their willingness to intervene on behalf of the common good.
Okay, so how can that translate into obesity? I'll try to spare you the jargon as much as I can while still conveying the meaning of these pathways (one of the main criticisms of this area of research is that words and phrases describing concepts, and the meaning of these concepts are not consistently applied). Also, keep in mind that these pathways can interact and overlap.
Informal social control
Neighbourhoods that are more cohesive informally enforce social norms (e.g. obeying the law), which may decrease anti-social behaviours such as graffiti, vandalism, illegal dumping, drug-dealing, violence etc (5). By informally it is meant that residents are willing to intervene when they see someone breaking social 'rules'. This can have an impact on the physical aspect of neighbourhoods, making them more or less aesthetic, as well as on the perception of safety (6, 7). Both may influence resident's decisions to be active outside (or decisions to let their kids be active outside), as well as decisions by certain groups of people and organizations to move into or out of the neighbourhood (8). For example, a specialized grocery store relocates out of the neighbourhood to a 'better' or 'safer' location. Neighbourhood residents therefore, no longer have access to this service. Another example is calling the SPCA to complain about a certain neighbor (me) letting their dog poop on one's property and not cleaning it up. In my defense, that dog poop was from winter – I had no idea Jax went over there to do his business, and the snow covered it up! As a result of this we bought a retractable leash and no longer let Jax off-leash in the backyard (to his chagrin). Maybe now our neighbours do not hesitate as much to let their little girl play in the backyard.
Somewhat related to social control is how much residents feel that they can depend on their neighbours, and how dependable neighbours actually are. In a more cohesive neighbouhood this mutual trust is high (9). Parents may feel better about and consequently let their child play outside more often when they know there are other people around to look out for the well-being of the child.
Collective action
Increasing the social connectivity of a neighbourhood facilitates coordinated action (9). Highly cohesive neighbourhoods may have more power to influence physical and social changes within the neighbourhood itself, at higher levels of social organization, such as at municipal and regional levels (I blogged about something similar in a recent post). For example, if neighbourhood members deem that being in a food desert is a problem they may have the collective might to bring about policies that allow farmers markets to locate within the community, thereby improving the accessibility of healthier foods. Another excellent example of this is DIY streets – an initiative to increase pedestrian and cyclist safety, which has also increased (full circle) a sense of community between neighbours on a street in London, England.
Social contagion
"The Chameleon Effect" is a phenomenon that operates at the level of our unconscious – merely perceiving certain behaviours makes us more likely to engage in those behaviours (10). In a more connected community, when we see/hear about people being active outside, or say ordering from an organic food basket, we may be more likely to engage in those behaviours (11). And this may lead to those behaviours becoming a social norm, which thus further reinforces those behaviours. I use the term 'social contagion' perhaps loosely, as the spreading of normative and stable healthy behaviours is likely not a fast process.
Richness and density of social ties
In some sense this operates more at the individual level but is relevant to discuss here. The more connections an individual has within the neighbourhood the more access they have to health relevant resources (12). Thus, a person who is isolated within the neighbourhood may not know about easily accessible (and perhaps free) services or amenities such as parks, new grocery stores, etc., or be exposed to health promotion initiatives that are local in scope. Having rich social interactions on a daily basis may also increase well-being and reduce stress. Individuals prone to isolation (like seniors) may benefit from living in a community with high social interaction – neighbours may periodically check in on and provide support, and a recent study has found that seniors living in areas with high social cohesion are less likely to die from stroke (13)
Again, this functions more at the individual level but can result, at least in some part, from a lack of collective efficacy at the community level. More physical and social neighbourhood disorder may illicit psychological distress <either warranted or unwarranted> (6). Chronic stress has been shown to have direct effects on metabolism and has been linked to obesity (14, 15). Eating may also be used as a coping strategy (15, 16) – I do this to self-medicate before a big presentation.
A few thoughts…
There are certainly some caveats in social capital research, particularly at the group-level (I won't go into them all but you can read about them in a series of articles published by the International Journal of Epidemiology, called the Social Capital Debate). The literature posits an influence of community social capital on physical activity, healthy eating, and obesity, but it may itself be influenced either by the behaviours themselves (e.g. more people meet outside during a jog), the built environment (e.g. interesting and safe places to walk to), or broader factors such as policies and global social norms. And certainly, the fact that most of this research has been cross-sectional does not help any to untangle the mess. Social capital can also be a bad thing, such as gangs or perpetuating unhealthy behaviours.
So, if we increase community social capital, will that decrease obesity? And how do we increase community social capital? Good questions, I don't think we have satisfactory answers yet, unfortunately. A discussion for another day perhaps…

Maumelle Mini-Storage
We need to come up with a logo that is simple and clean for our Self-Storage Facility. Our Company color is a forest green or dark green. Our Ideal customer needs to store their items for long term storage. They are looking for clean and safe/secure storage of these items at affordable prices.

A few store their business records/filing cabinets and seasonal items with us.
I would like to incorporate the name in with the logo "Maumelle Mini-Storage" but I would like the logo to be able to stand on its own if it had too.
It must have forest green or dark green in it.

12 Deadliest Garden Plants Your garden may be a relaxing retreat, but it's not a place to let your guard down, especially when it comes to small children and the family pet. Some popular plants you prize for their ornamental beauty can turn into toxic killers within minutes if ingested, whether consumed out of curiosity or by mistake. With this list you'll know what flowers, shrubs, and berries to warn young, inquisitive minds about and which bushes and flowers to keep out of paw's reach. You'll also learn the symptoms of poisoning because—after prevention—rapid treatment is the only defense against death.

French carmaker Renault is looking to revive the defunct Alpine ("al-peen") sports car brand, and it may get help from an unexpected source. The French giant is looking to British boutique carmaker and Formula 1 team Caterham to make the 21st century Alpine happen.
According to Autocar, the project will yield two sports cars, one badged as an Alpine, the other a Caterham, that will use a common platform. Caterham will build its version in England, and the revived Alpine will be built at the old Alpine factory in Dieppe. The venture is called Societe des Automobiles Alpine Caterham, and each company has a 50 percent stake.
"This innovative partnership with Caterham embodies a longstanding ambition: the creation of a sports car with the Alpine DNA. It carries both opportunities for the Dieppe plant and the development of its historic expertise," Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn said in a statement.
Caterham is known for the 7, a minimalist sports car with motorcycle fenders. The 7 was originally built by Lotus, but Caterham took over production after Lotus moved on to more substantial sports cars.
The Alpine project expands an existing partnership between Caterham and Renault. Caterham's Formula 1 car uses a 2.4-liter V8 from the French carmaker.
What will the fruits of Caterham and Renault's labors look like? Renault recently showed the racy Alpine A110-50 concept car, but the production car will probably be less exotic.
The engine will probably come from one of the Renaultsport hot hatchbacks. That means either the direct-injected and turbocharged 1.6-liter four from the Clio RS, which produces 200 horsepower, or possibly the 265 hp 2.0-liter turbo engine from the Mégane Cup.
The new sports car may use an aluminum space frame, something Renault pioneered in the 1990s with the Renaultsport Spider roadster. Whether the car will be rear-engined (as some past Alpines were) or mid-engined is unknown, although it will probably be rear-wheel drive. The Caterham and Alpine versions may also have different body styles, possibly resulting in a Caterham convertible and an Alpine coupe.
Alpine was founded in 1955 and started out tuning Renault production models. It quickly moved on to developing its own sports cars, such as the A110, using Renault components. It was bought by Renault in 1973 and, like Abarth and AMG, became an in-house tuner for its parent. The Alpine name was used on performance Renaults until 1994, when it was replaced by the Renaultsport brand.
It's hard to see how a collaboration between hallowed brands like Alpine and Caterham could go wrong, so this paternership is definitely one to watch. Development work is already underway, with the revived Alpine set to debut in 2015 or 2016.

Gustaf Evald Isaksson, born May 9, 1922 in Herbster, Wis., died peacefully on his 91st birthday. Gus was born and raised the fourth son of Alfred and Esther Isaksson. He grew up on the south shore of Lake Superior in northern Wisconsin and graduated from Herbster High School with honors. Gus spent his childhood, as did most working-class boys of the 1920s and '30s, mixing school with long hours working in The Isaksson Lumber Company family business. Gus had four siblings: three older brothers, Albert, Axel and Leroy, and a younger sister Inez. Despite receiving a military exemption from the Sullivan Clause, Gus enlisted in the U.S. Army to serve his country during World War II. Following his brother Leroy's advice, he requested training in electronics and was almost immediately chosen for Wild Bill Donovan's emerging OSS. Though stationed outside London, England, he spent time behind enemy lines in Vichy, France, monitoring and decoding enemy radio traffic and gathering intelligence. Though he did not see combat, his activities in Vichy, would have seen him shot as a spy if caught. Gus met his future wife, Aline McMillan in London during his deployment in England and they were married in May 1945.
Following WWII, Gus attended the University of Wisconsin in Madison and then the Illinois Institute of Technology, graduating with a degree in electrical engineering. He was an avid Wisconsin Badgers fan for the remainder of his life. Gus went on to work for the Atomic Energy Commission in Oak Ridge, Tenn., then Goodyear Tire and Rubber, and finally National Rubber Machinery in Columbiana, and Akron. He had a distinguished business career and spent many years travelling and building business relationships internationally in Korea, India, Japan, China, Australia, Brazil and eastern Europe prior to the fall of the Berlin wall.
In addition to his executive positions at NRM Corporation, he shared his knowledge as a visiting professor at Rayen School of Engineering at Youngstown State University. He was a philanthropist and active community member involved with a variety of nonprofit organizations including the Boy Scouts, Kiwanis, Youngstown Symphony, Fellows Riverside Gardens, and the Presbyterian Church. He enjoyed golf, bowling, rides in the country, picnics, and was an avid Wisconsin Badgers fan. Did I say he was an avid Badgers fan?

He was married for 38 years to Aline Kathleen McMillan, raising five children together. Gus lost his first wife to cancer in 1983, but found new life eight years later with his second love, Catherine Parker. Catherine was also widowed and Gus and Catherine spent the next 14 years rediscovering life as seniors and experiencing the richness of a combined family unit. After Catherine's death in 2005, Gus moved to Kennesaw, Ga., to live with his son, Pete and his wife Kathy, and an extended family of grandchildren and great grandchildren. He remained a northern Yankee despite all efforts to reform him. We never got a "y'all" out of him but he did become a big fan of the Atlanta Braves, bless his heart.
Admired for his intelligence, sense of humor, family values and "just plain decency", Gus is survived by, and will be greatly missed by, his daughters Katie Perrin, Maureen Peebles, Barbara Horvatis (Jack), son Pete (Kathy) Isaksson, and daughter Kristen Isaksson Barnett, 10 adoring grandchildren, five great grandchildren, an "adopted grandchild-in-law", a sister Inez (Floyd) Callum and brother Leroy (Maxine) Isaksson. In addition, Gus is survived by three stepchildren - Ted (Carla) Parker, Alan (Estelle) Parker, Midge Utz, and three step-grandchildren. He will be missed by a large contingent of extended family and friends internationally. He was preceded in death by his brothers Albert and Axel, and his wives, Aline and Catherine.
A memorial service will be held 11 a.m. Saturday, May 18, 2013 at Carmichael Funeral Home in Marietta, Ga.

Blog post continues:
I explained to a colleague recently that when people first see or come into contact with you as a black woman they may have one or two likely responses but likely they will respond negatively if they haven't had the experience of confronting a black woman in the situation before. As black women many of us are still entering 'first' situations because we tend to or have tended to self-segregate more than black men and confine ourselves to black spaces and pasttimes (so people are not used to dealing with bw in untypical situations). If people haven't experienced black woman in a certain situation trust me, the more likely reaction you will get will be discomfort, you will see it in their faces and reactions whcih often speaks to an underlying race issue or insecurity that is unresolved. most times this will result in them trying to get rid of the source of this discomfort, and you guessed it they might then try to 'eject' you from the situation and they will get about doing this without even being aware that this is what they are doing and indeed without diagnosing that this is because of a racial animus.
Once you stand your ground or are allowed to be in place for sometime, you will see how soon your being around or being there 'normalizes'. One bw I know had a very bad experience when she was called to 'head' a certain project. I told her to hang in there and pretend she didn't even notice that folk were uncomfortable and didn't know how to respond to her and her being there. Very soon people settled into their little camps.
Yes there were those who couldn't deal and did their little sabotaging things here and there, thankfully they were not in positions of great power and ultimately she had a number of important allies whose sense of fairness (this is one of the most useful and salient aspects of the white identity which is more important to appeal to than 'anti-racism,' because most whites are desperate to see themselves as fair-minded people even while they may be too nervy to comfront race and racism) didn't allow them to side with all sorts of racist shenanigans (though very few were able to name the going ons for what it truly was ie racism, they just felt they needed to give the new person a fair shake).
Pretending you don't know what is going on while silently doing your thing is one of the best moves a bw can make. Trust me, give things a chance to 'settle,' don't feel you have to respond to peoples attitudes. Allow for folks to even cancel each other out by being in team this and team the other, while you burrow down and attend to the business of getting yourself up to speed on your job, project, team etc.
Speaking also about how white people do not really or are not able to suss racist animus or identify it as a factor in a situation, I want black women to realize this very important truth; white women in particular do not even understand or know that they are being racist to black women in many of those work/social situations that you all talk about no matter how incredulous this may sound!
Some of you think they know what they are doing, the truth is some might have an oblique understanding that race has something to do with how they are responding to this black person but often a defense mechanism will kick in (remember the aim of defence mechanisms is to shield one from their own anxiety producing/unacceptable emotions and impulses and what is more unacceptable to the self image of a white person than the notion that they are really racists!) and they will latch unto or even manufacture another 'reason' for their response to you to eg they might say you have an 'attitude' (and you dont necessarily need to have one, you could be the nicest person on earth but they will project the readily available seterotype of bw unto you and rarely will this be challenged because bw are deemed to be so, as well as bw themselves reinforce the 'big and bad' attitude almost to the level of an identity).
There is a certain level of lack of self awareness that goes with living as a privileged being (a white person), in addition being a 'protected,' unchallenged privileged being (I am talking white womanhood) means even a greater level of lack of self-awareness! This is why white men in my calculations are more aware and can own that they could be behaving in a racist manner (and thus are able to be reasoned with and can be pulled back), as opposed to white women whose very comon reaction is to burst into incredulous tears when it is pointed out.
You very rarely win if you directly confront a white woman about her racist reactions to you for the above and other reasons....
