For a variety of challenges, Psychotherapy is a process which allows for the uncovering of answers that you already have. The back and forth conversation processes all the thoughts in your head, reflects them back and validates the ones that would serve you best given the details that you disclose. Session often include assessments to test an individual's theories about oneself and ultimately rules out several options leaving a clear understanding of the path that needs to be followed in order to achieved identified goals.

The reason you may enter into psychotherapy is so you can get to the truth about how you feel, how you act, what you believe, and to experience a clearer insight into yourself and your relationships. You do not have to talk about your past, nor do you have to blame your mother for everything! I have many effective strategies and techniques that can help you reach your goals in order to feel more at peace within yourself. We can work at your pace, follow the path that works best for you, and accomplish your goals together.

As I see it, psychotherapy is a relationship of trust. It encourages a person to be themselves fully in a bond of trust in order to grow as a whole person. It is also a process wherein an individual can become more deeply aware of one's strengths as well as one's personal challenges. At its core is a relationship involving one person's faith in the other's intrinsic ability to face and deal with life's challenges.

Psychotherapy is engaging in a process of knowing oneself deeply, to identify and understand what needs to change and working together to find solutions. Subsequent sessions will focus on clarifying the nature and extent of your difficulties, learning more about you through history, determining the focus of our work together, and setting a course of action.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy involves client and therapist having mutual respect for each other, and having the client feel valued, listened to, understood. The treatment approaches used will vary based on your need, and we probably will use several. I believe in dealilng with problems from several directions...some behavioral (things you will need to do), cognitive (looking at and thinkiing differently about things), emotionally (Internal Family Systems Therapy IFS), and educational (learning skills or information that will help you to achieve your goals. We may use self-hypnosis to reduce anxiety, to help with sleep, and for other purposes. If we use it, you are always in full control of yourself.

By Jim Gorman and Robert Earle Howells; executive summary by darmansjah
The world's longest mountain bike route zigzags 2,490 miles (4,007 kilometers) along the Continental Divide from the Canadian border near Eureka, Montana, to the Mexican border at Antelope Wells, New Mexico. In the process, it climbs 200,000 feet/60,960 meters (that's seven Everests) and ascends passes two miles (three kilometers) high. Naturally, the first nation-spanning fat tire route encompasses the best of our Rocky Mountain spine: alpine wilderness, undulant grasslands, scrub desert, solitude that frays the edges of your brain, and a sense of what the country would look like if wilderness were the rule, not the exception. Yet the signature of the Great Divide Route is its doability. It was purposefully scouted and mapped over a decade ago by Adventure Cycling to intersect civilization virtually every day. That eliminates the need to schlep a heavy larder or to arrange complicated food drops.
Most of the ride is on doubletrack forest roads, with rare technical bits and a smattering of asphalt. While zealots race it unsupported in just over two weeks, anyone with true grit, good gear, and a Suze Orman-approved budget can do it in just over two months. Or riders can select a single state and call it a dream vacation: Montana is 20 days and 695 miles/1,118 kilometers (the majority surprisingly easy) from the wild alpine country near Glacier National Park to the big grassy basins in the south.

The Library Building Fund Association was organized in 1886 with the purpose of raising money to purchase or build a library in Sandusky. They worked diligently to secure funds by sponsoring plays, lectures, and musicals.
Pictured below is the program from the "Grand Cosmorama" held at the Opera House in Sandusky on April 3, 1891, under the auspices of the Ladies Building Fund Association.
The evening's event opened and closed with selections from the Ladies Banjo Club. Several "living pictures" were acted out. The "Light Infantry" featured six children singing and acting. The "Wheel of Fate" number involved eight ladies in party costumes doing a drill with fans. The "Old Maids of Lee" was an amusing act in which the participants frantically tried to catch a man. Fifty Sandusky residents took part in the festivities.
Susie Selkirk (shown here in her Sandusky High School graduation photo, class of 1888) was one of the ladies who participated in the Grand Cosmorama.
See the Sandusky Daily Register of April 3, 1891 to read an account of the 1891 Grand Cosmorama, available on microfilm in the Archives Research Center of the Sandusky Library.
Mrs. Jay O. Moss addressed the Firelands Historical Society in 1900 and spoke about the history of the "Free Library" in Sandusky. (You can read her address in the 1900 "Firelands Pioneer.") One of Mrs. Moss's comments was especially poignant: "The dimensions of our building almost stagger us, for our income will be small and our size great, but if our object of bringing people and library together, in unity, acting in sympathy and sentiment, each with the other, can only be accomplished, our halcyon days are indeed upon us."
The Sandusky Library website has a brief history of the library.

Through this course, you will learn everything you need to know to create and develop your company's strategic planning, and with it drive your objectives to real, effective action.
The Structure:
The success of a company depends on having clearly defined the things that will form the foundation and structure of the company. It is advisable when setting out on this task to first make a situational assessment of the company at the internal as well as external level, to detect the current status of the company. With this information in hand, you will be ready to make a plan according to context that meets the needs of your company.
The Procedure:
Strategic planning is done by following a series of steps that will lead to some concrete actions, but for this you will need a solid structure to stand on that includes the history, vision and mission of the company. Thus, these three elements will inform the construction of the company's base, as they contain the identity, scope and service of the company, which together comprise the company's purpose. Once a solid foundation on which to plan is formed, we can go on to the next steps in the process including setting objectives, strategies and actions, which will naturally incorporate the base that was constructed initially.
Strategic planning will allow you to:
- Achieve better results in line with the company's objectives
- Strengthen identity and sense of belonging
- Improve the virtual team's structure and direction
- Create effective strategies and actions

Growth of subscription-video-on-demand (SVOD) services in the US has slowed considerably over the last year as competition in the online video streaming space intensifies. Heavy hitters like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime are increasingly squeezed by new competitors with exclusive content and niche video offerings.
International markets, and specifically, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region will be paramount for both established SVOD players and new entrants looking to establish themselves in the successful video space.
The SVOD market in the APAC region is poised for explosive growth over the next five years due to increased mobile adoption, amplified broadband expansion, and enhanced purchasing power.
In a recent report from BI Intelligence, we explore how slowing SVOD growth in the US will lead to a surge in the APAC region.
Here are some of the key takeaways from the report:
- While SVOD services are increasingly rooted among US households, growth is beginning slow. Growth in North American SVOD subscriptions is set to fall from 30% in 2014 to 4% by 2018.
- The best opportunity for continued growth lies in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. The region had nearly 42 million SVOD subscribers in 2015, but could have up to 158 million by 2021.
- The increasing adoption of smartphones and mobile data is propelling growth in mobile video viewing across APAC, which is poised to outpace the rest of the world.
- Rising purchasing power in APAC underlines the opportunity for online video services. China and emerging Asian economies represent nearly two-thirds (63%) of global economic growth.
- Content creators and marketers stand to gain from SVOD's push into the APAC region. Content creators can benefit from the surge in short-form video, while marketers can capitalize on advanced product placements.
In full, the report:
- Forecasts SVOD subscribers in the APAC region.
- Explores the factors behind SVOD's slowing growth in the US.
- Breaks down reasons why APAC is ripe for massive online video growth.
- Discusses who will benefit from SVOD growth in APAC.

I went to another great yard/estate sale (first one there, of course, you know me) and I was about to leave the sale after finding some great jewelry pieces- one of which I will post after this- when the guy helping out at the sale reminded me that it was an inside sale as well. I have GOT to be more alert even though I try to get there early, 'cause it totally slipped my mind about the inside. Anyway, I went into the dining area, found some nice things there, but saw this hiding on a shelf. I knew it was Native American pottery, but didn't know what tribe affiliation, turned it over and saw it was signed. Got this pot along with a few other things for about $30 total.
Here is a link to learn more about the potter Fannie Nampeyo:
Great piece of pottery. I love it:).

The Association for Computing Machinery's Council on Women in Computing (ACM-W) today named Nancy Lynch, the NEC Professor of Software Science and Engineering at MIT and a principal investigator at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), as the 2012-2013 Athena Lecturer. The Athena Lecturer award celebrates women researchers who have made fundamental contributions to computer science. It includes a $10,000 honorarium provided by Google.
Lynch developed mathematical approaches to understanding the capabilities of distributed systems, which rely on multiple processors for computation and coordination. These systems include traditional wired networks, modern mobile communications, cloud computing systems, parallel computers and embedded computers in factory machinery. Her contributions include modeling and proof techniques, algorithms and impossibility results that are now in the toolbox of computer scientists who design distributed systems.
"Lynch's work has influenced both theoreticians and practitioners," said Mary Jane Irwin, who heads the ACM-W awards committee. "Her ability to formulate many of the core problems of the field in clear and precise ways has provided a foundation that allows computer system designers to find ways to work around the limitations she verified, and to solve problems with high probability."
In a career spanning more than 30 years, Lynch identified the boundaries between what is possible and provably impossible to solve in distributed settings. She developed new distributed algorithms, created precise models for analyzing distributed algorithms and systems, and discovered limitations on what distributed algorithms can accomplish.
Lynch's breakthrough research with M.J. Fischer and M.S. Paterson produced the "FLP" result. It defined as a mathematical problem the challenge of establishing agreement in asynchronous distributed systems (i.e. those with no timing assumptions) in the presence of failures. This innovation had a major impact on the design of fault-tolerant distributed data-management systems and communication systems.
Lynch's textbook, Distributed Algorithms, is the definitive reference on the basics of the field. It introduces readers to the fundamental issues underlying the design of distributed systems, including communication, coordination, synchronization and uncertainty. It integrates the results of distributed algorithms research using a common mathematical framework.
Recent work
In collaboration with A. Shvartsman and S. Gilbert, Lynch developed the RAMBO (Reconfigurable Atomic Memory for Basic Objects) algorithm, which maintains shared memory in rapidly changing networks that cannot assure access to a central server for data storage. It was originally envisioned for military applications as a means to preserve vital information for teams of soldiers operating in hostile environments. It also has applications for first responders where a stable infrastructure is not available.
In another recent project, Lynch and her collaborators proposed a new approach to programming mobile networks used for communication and for control of robots, cars and airplanes. It employs a new algorithm that allows actual mobile nodes to emulate some stationary virtual nodes, making the programming of mobile networks much easier. This emulation algorithm replicates the state of a virtual node at nearby mobile nodes, and enables the replicas to be transferred to different mobile nodes.
Lynch heads the Theory of Distributed Systems Group at CSAIL. Prior to joining MIT, she served on the faculty at Tufts University, the University of Southern California, Florida International University and the Georgia Institute of Technology. A graduate of Brooklyn College with a BS in mathematics, Lynch received a PhD in mathematics from MIT in 1972.
An ACM fellow and a member of the National Academy of Engineering, Lynch and her co-authors received the 2001 and the 2007 Dijkstra Prizes in Distributed Computing. She was the first woman to win the ACM Knuth Prize, also in 2007. She was a co-winner of the first van Wijngaarden Prize in 2006 from the National Institute for Research in Mathematics and Computer Science in The Netherlands. In 2010, she received the Emanuel R. Piore Award from the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
The Athena Lecturer is invited to present a lecture at an ACM event. Lynch's lecture will be delivered at the 2013 joint meeting of the Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC) and the Symposium on Parallel Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA) sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups on Algorithms and Computational Theory (SIGACT) and Computer Architecture (SIGARCH). Each year, the Athena Lecturer honors a preeminent woman computer scientist. Athena is the Greek goddess of wisdom; with her knowledge and sense of purpose, she epitomizes the strength, determination, and intelligence of the "Athena Lecturers." The 2012-2013 Athena Lecturer award will be presented at the ACM Annual Awards Banquet, June 16, in San Francisco.


text: Fast Forward, LLC funds Axxam SpA for the development of compounds to help prevent disability in Multiple Sclerosis May 30, 2012 Fast Forward, LLC, a not-for-profit organization established by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and Merck Serono, a division of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany today announced funding support for Axxam SpA. The award will help support Axxam SpA research to discover small molecules that prevent the chloride intracellular channel 1 (CLIC1) activation, and have the potential to modulate glial cell activity. This project will provide the pharmacological tools for the validation of an innovative and attractive target belonging to the ion channel class, CLIC1. which could then form the basis for the development of new treatments for MS, as well as for other relevant neurodegenerative diseases. "We are delighted to gain this substantial funding to support our research efforts, as well as to renew our relationship with Fast Forward and their collaborative partner, Merck Serono after the first project funded in 2011 on the NCX1 target" said Stefan Lohmer co-founder and CEO of Axxam. The award from Fast Forward and Merck Serono provides Axxam SpA with $402,000 over 12 months, and is distributed from the Accelerating Commercial Development Fund, which is allocated to for-profit entities and is designed to accelerate the development of research discoveries into new or improved therapies for people with multiple sclerosis. "The potential of MS research currently in progress around the globe holds great promise for improving the quality of life for people living with MS," said Dr. Timothy Coetzee, Chief Research Officer at the National MS Society and Fast Forward. "We are pleased to have the opportunity to advance that promise through the continued collaboration between Fast Forward and Merck Serono in support of innovative companies such as Axxam. Our commitment to furthering research that will end MS remains steadfast, and we look forward to learning more from the results of these innovative research projects." About CLIC1 The chloride intracellular channel CLIC1 is a new interesting target expressed by activated microglia. After stimulation this protein translocates to the plasmamembrane and acts as a membrane chloride channel which mediates cell hyperpolarization. Microglia hyperpolarization is necessary to sustain high superoxide generation and influx of chloride ions have a fundamental role in the maintenance of this state. Potential new drugs blocking CLIC1 should prevent chloride influx to drive production of toxic levels of ROS and NOS in pathological conditions that promote microglia over activation. These compounds will first be useful for validation of this intervention route. Our approach could eventually lead to therapeutic strategies that interfere with ROS and NOS overproduction, therefore alleviating neuroinflammation and neuronal damage in different pathologies including MS and other neurodegenerative diseases. About Axxam SpA Axxam is a privately owned contract research and discovery company located at the Open Zone in Bresso, Milan, Italy. The company has developed a proven track record as a third party research and discovery services provider for the life science industry. In addition, Axxam conducts several discovery programs for selected targets which are carried out in partnership with other companies or non-profit organizations. For more information please visit www.axxam.com or contact Sabrina Corazza at email@example.com. About Fast Forward, LLC Fast Forward, LLC, established by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society as part of a comprehensive approach to MS research and treatment, focuses on speeding promising research discoveries towards commercial drug development. Fast Forward accelerates the development of treatments for MS by connecting university-based MS research with private-sector drug development and by funding small biotechnology/pharmaceutical companies to develop innovative new MS therapies and repurpose FDA-approved drugs as new treatments for MS. For more information, please visit www.fastforward.org. About MS and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society MS is a chronic, unpredictable neurological disease that affects the central nervous system. It is thought to be an autoimmune disorder, meaning the immune system incorrectly attacks healthy tissue. Symptoms may be mild, such as numbness in the limbs, or severe, such as paralysis or loss of vision. These problems may be permanent or may come and go. The National MS Society addresses the challenges of each person affected by MS by funding cutting-edge research, driving change through advocacy, facilitating professional education, collaborating with MS organizations around the world, and providing programs and services designed to help people with MS and their families move their lives forward. The Society is dedicated to achieving a world free of MS.

How did you start to branch out to other artists?
When I was in college I used to go to bluegrass festivals in the mid- Atlantic area and I would get in for free and get cheeseburgers and French fries and Cokes if I did the sound. I figured, what a deal! The guy who had the sound company was [renowned bluegrass banjoist] Eddie Adcock, so I had pretty deep roots in bluegrass because of all of those festivals and meeting so many musicians. I loved the music because it was one form of music where everybody could play and sing or they didn't work, unlike some of the other forms of music.
[Dobro player] Jerry Douglas and [banjo player] Béla Fleck were old friends, and when Marty passed, I guess around '83, I built and was chief engineer for what is now Curb Studios on 16th Avenue. I helped with the construction of that and the design, and started working with Béla Fleck and continued through most of the Flecktone records, then Jerry Douglas, Alison Krauss, Rhonda Vincent, Claire Lynch, and some of the prominent names of bluegrass. It was not as lucrative as country music, but it sure was a whole lot of fun!
The session crew for David Holt's Grandfather's Greatest Hits. Back (L to R): Mark O'Connor, Duane Eddy, Jerry Douglas, Larry Paxton, Steve Turner, Doc Watson. Front (L to R): Steve Heller, Chet Atkins, David Holt, Bil VornDick.
Bluegrass was your primary area early on,
but you branched out to jazz, country,
Celtic, and rock.
Well, I'm doing a lot of pop music now, with artists from the past that were established on major labels. I'm working on Jon Pousette-Dart's new album right now. He was on Capital for all those years. Tomorrow I go into pre-production with Lynn Anderson, who had "I Beg Your Pardon, I Never Promised You a Rose Garden."
But I guess we're talking about guitar players ... I worked with Bryan Sutton early on, when he was doing his first album. And the tribute album for Merle Travis on Shanachie Records with Chet and Thom Bresh, who is Merle Travis' son. They sent in Merle Travis' guitars from L.A., from the vault, for the sessions, so anybody could pick up those guitars and play them on the session. I also recorded many albums with Doc Watson, and I'm very fortunate to have engineered an album [On Praying Ground, 1990] that won a Grammy for Doc. I will miss Doc a whole lot. He was such a kind man and I sort of started playing the guitar by listening to his albums when I was young.
When you're working with an artist like
that, who has a very established style, do
you see yourself more in the engineer role
or more as the producer?
A producer to me is a mediator. In the case of the Merle Travis thing, I was the producer and engineer. But with Doc Watson, [bassist] Michael Coleman was the producer—he'd been on the road with Doc for years. As an engineer you try and make everyone sound like they want to be heard. I've always felt that the producer was the person who could answer the question, "What do you think?" correctly … or as correctly as you can, within the political compound that you're in.
As a producer or engineer who's been
hired for a project, do you start in pre-production
or do things start for you
when the project comes into the studio?
As an engineer, I've always been involved in the pre-production. As a producer, of course, you're in it for months beforehand finding songs, going to meetings, and then helping the artist do the arrangements. And then trying to find the theme of the album, not so that all the songs are necessarily about the same thing, but so that the album has a motif—like a painter painting a picture where all the different elements come together.
How much, as a producer, do you have to
draw performances out of artists?
A lot. Every artist is different and unique. Everybody has their good day, and everybody has their bad day, from musician to engineer to producer. Many of those artists come in and knock it right out. That's one thing good about Nashville: There are so many great musicians and guitar players. But there are times when a producer needs to show the artist how to become the song—get inside of it and project it in their performance. That's hard to explain, but when the artist gets there in emotion, and it comes out, that is when the hair goes up on the back of your neck.
You're a big fan of guitar.
I love guitar so much that I volunteer to be the stage manager at the All Star Guitar Night at [Summer] NAMM. I guess I have for about 10 years. I do it to raise money so that children can get instruments, and that's very important to me. I don't charge; I let them beat me up on their scheduling for weeks ahead of time, "I want my soundcheck here." Stage managing is mediating, but we all do it for the children with dreams of playing music.

My bud Randy shared some amazing news with me.
Master of Horror set to bring you the girl of your dreams. John Carpenter is onboard to direct Darkchylde, based on the comic by Randy Queen about a good hearted southern teen cursed to become the creatures from her many recurring nightmares. Every time Ariel Chylde transforms, she sheds her skin and a new nightmare emerges from her Id to act out her deepest, darkest impulses.
Click below for the full press release.
Congrats, Randy! Well-deserved and just the most insane of news.
And I apologize for thinking it was a joke when you first sent me the story!
But John-Freaking-Carpenter, man!

Congrats are in order. At least it will get a chance to be seen. I just hope Carpenter does more than phone it in. I've not been very pleased with much of anything he's produced in recent years.

I checked out the early real WETA did for this, when it was still just a proposal, and it looked amazing! I can't wait to see the film fully realized.
Like Costume Bot said, Carpenter's latter day work has been spotty (Ghosts of Mars...*shudder*), but it may very well be that the time off has recharged his batteries, so to speak. I've always thought this concept had potential for a visually stunning film, and you KNOW with Carpenter he'll at least deliver on that front!

Sorry it has been so long since I have blogged. Things have been a bit hectic in the Fennell household. And I have been getting ready to teach the next couple of weekends coming up too. And last week, I had a Live with Prima show featuring a tag set I had made for CHA summer. Baseball season wrapped up last weekend, with me working in the JD snack shack...thank goodness I know how to operate a grill and I sold many Skittles-LOL! And I think I am finally turning the corner with this cold. It seems to be lingering, making life a lot harder than it needed to be. Dare I say, it could have been the flu...I don't know. There seems to be a lot of sickness going around and I have paid my dues at this point.
So, I just wanted to post about my upcoming classes and let you know where, what, when and then some....
Oh and post about my LWP class last week....
Here are the tags I made on the show using Prima's Rondelle collection, flowers and more. I love making tags because they are quick, easy and fun.

Who's Louis Lagasse?
He's Dennis Lagasse II's brother. I don't have a picture to show you. Maybe I have one photo in my files, but since I can't identify him, I can't show it.
Maybe it's him in this picture…
I did this little montage in 2010 because I thought I had a picture of the elusive Dennis Lagasse II.
Now I am sure the mystery man is not Dennis. He could be Pierre or Peter Lagasse who was Dennis' brother.
Could be?
This is the original picture. I have two photos in my files. These people are at a beach.
Louis died in 1928. He was the father of…
Dora Lagasse (1882 –)
Oscar D Lagasse (1884 –)
Louis H Lagasse (1884 –)
Wilbur G Lagasse (1888 –)
Joseph William Lagasse (1890 –)
Harvey Louis Lagasse (1894 – 1971)
Walter D Lagasse (1901 –)
Well that's what I could find… in the U.S. censuses and on Family Search.
Louis Lagasse married Rose Myers. The Lagasses and the Myers are all related to each others. I know a lot about the Myers who were Lemaires back in the 1800s.
Since these pictures come from a descendant of Alice Myers who married Victor Philip Lagasse, then Louis could possibly be in these photos. I can't follow up on all this because the person who sent me these pictures has stopped sending me pictures in 2010. I have tried to rekindle the interest but to no avail.
I undertand that my passion for genealogy is scaring some people away.
I will have to get use to this.

Lewellyn's 'Callahan goal' spurs Lady Flames past Charleston
November 10, 2013 | Boone, N.C.
Playing in its first tournament of the season, Liberty University's women's Ultimate Frisbee team placed 12th out of 16 teams over the weekend at the Blue Ridge Blowout, hosted by Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C.
The Lady Flames finished 1-5, avenging one of two overtime losses on Saturday with a 12-3 triumph over the College of Charleston in Sunday's rematch.
Jonathan Mast, who helped start up Liberty's program in 2010 and played for the men's team before graduating in 2012, serves as head coach of the women's team and an assistant to Jason Jarrett on the men's squad.
"He and I pretty much tag-team coach and work together to recruit teams," Mast said, noting that is still very much a work in progress. "We have three returners from last year. All of the rest of the players are new, including many who have never played ultimate before.
"Considering that, we did quite well for our first tournament as a team," he added. "They are having to learn things on the fly and their effort, grit, and teachability was inspiring."
Liberty was without senior Stacy Gardner, its only four-year player who couldn't make the trip, and the Lady Flames had just 11 of its 15 players available for seven-on-seven tournament play.
"Everybody played a ton of points, just because we lacked two full lines," Mast said, noting Anna Vanover played in 91 of the 95 points over the six games. "She only came off the field four times the entire tournament because we were so shorthanded."
Krista Johnson, a senior first-year player, threw the most points for Liberty, averaging close to five assists per game, followed closely by Vanover.
"Anna and Krista really stepped up to the plate," Mast said. "(Junior) Lindsay Matson, our go-to deep threat, was our leading scorer and every single person scored. The girls made lots of layout catches with endless cutting and hard defense."
Games are 75 minutes in length or the first team to reach 13 points.
After scoring the first three points of its opener against Elon University only to lose to the Phoenix by a 13-5 count, the Lady Flames fell to Virginia Tech 11-5 in Saturday's second match. They then dropped two matches in OT, with play extended to 90 minutes, losing two three-goal leads in a 9-7 setback to Charleston before giving up a universal sudden-death point in a 10-9 defeat against the University of North Carolina.
Mast said one of the highlights of the weekend was when sophomore Keziah Lewellyn caught the first "Callahan" goal in women's ultimate history at Liberty early on in the rematch with Charleston.
"We were playing in a zone defense and caught them in a trap on the sideline with three players," Mast said. "They tried to play it back and the wind caught it and Becca Staats deflected it and Keziah intercepted it in the (Cougars') end zone."
The point extended the Lady Flames' lead to 4-1 en route to the lopsided victory.
"Callahan goals are really demoralizing," he said. "It was a big momentum swing."
After the breakthrough victory over the Cougars, the Lady Flames concluded the tournament by falling to UNC Asheville, 6-3, in extremely windy conditions.
"They got the first two points and it was hard to come back from that," Mast said. "They had the wind at their backs after halftime and it was hard to work the disc upfield against the wind."
While the men's team hosts an eight-team tournament this Saturday and Sunday on Liberty's intramural fields, the women's team will scrimmage a team from Roanoke on Saturday before starting up its spring season with a tournament in January.

DeRionne P. Pollard, who is black and openly lesbian, has been selected as the new president of Montgomery College in Maryland. The college has three campuses in Montgomery County, just outside Washington, D.C., and is the largest community college in the nation.
Dr. Pollard was selected after a five-month national search that attracted 50 applicants, reports the Maryland Gazette.
Pollard, with 15 years of teaching and leading community colleges on her resume, has been the president of Las Positas College in Livermore, Calif., since 2008. During that time, the community college has seen nearly a 15 percent increase in enrollment. The Las Positas College enrolls roughly 8,800 students, while Montgomery College — the largest community college in Maryland — enrolls roughly 60,000 students."
Pollard becomes the ninth president in the college's 64-year history. Her first day is August 2.
The college's last president came under heavy criticism for lack of leadership and strategy, as well as for missing meetings and excessive spending on travel and limousines. Pollard told staff and faculty that she would be much different than that of her predecessor. "Montgomery College will be the most relevant community college in the country," Pollard promised, adding that she is "committed to being an open and communicative president."
Montgomery College becomes the second high-profile college with an openly gay black president. In February, Grinnell College named Dr. Raynard Kington as its president. Dr. Kington begins his tenure this summer and was formerly the

ANAHEIM – Disneyland donated two vehicles from the Matterhorn Bobsled ride – the world's first tubular-steel roller coaster – to a national organization for preservation as historic artifacts.
The National Roller Coaster Museum and Archives officially accepted the Matterhorn vehicles and a sign from California Screamin' in Disney California Adventure last week at Dollywood in Tennessee.
"This is the 'holy grail' of artifacts for the National Roller Coaster Museum and Archive," Chairman Gary Slade said in a statement. "The Matterhorn started the modern era of roller coaster design and launched the themed-ride industry."
The vehicles and sign are now at the organization's archive facility in Plainview, Texas, where they will be conserved and prepared for display, said Pete Owens, a spokesman for the National Roller Coaster Museum. Officials from the organization, which does not have permanent museum space, have yet to decide whether the items will be shown at a temporary exhibit in Dollywood or elsewhere.
The organization requested the vehicles and talks went on for about two years, Owens said.
Disneyland recently completed its most-extensive renovation of the 53-year-old Matterhorn ride, which got new vehicles in June. The previous bobsleds, which had tandem seats, had been used since 1978. The other 10 remain at Disneyland, packed away.
California Screamin' is the second-longest steel roller coaster in North America, at 6,072 feet, Owens said. The longest, at 6,595, is the Millennium Force at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio.
"The Matterhorn Bobsleds vehicles and California Screamin' signage represent two of our most beloved attractions, from the first tubular steel-tracked roller coaster in the world to one of the longest and most thrilling," said George Kalogridis, Disneyland Resort's president, in a statement.

Werth Back In Lineup
Tonight's Lineup
3 homers, 8 RBI, 2 curtain calls. Jayson Werth said he will never forget it last night. So will the 36,000-plus fans.
That performance earned him a spot in tonight's lineup as the Phillies face a right-handed starter for the first time in week:
Rollins, ss
Werth, cf
Utley, 2b
Howard, 1b
Burrell, lf
Jenkins, rf
Dobbs, 3b
Coste, c
Eaton, p
"Werthy" Offense
Quite a show Jayson put on last night, a three-run homer, grand slam and solo blast. All he needed was a two-run homer for the "home run cycle", something that has never been done in baseball history.
His night was historical when it comes to the Phillies record book.
He's the fifth Phillies player to drive in 8 runs in a game: Kitty Bransfield (1910), Gavvy Cravath (1915), Willie Jones (1958) and Mike Schmidt (1976). And, he became the 18th player in our history to hit three dingers in a game.
My roaming territory is usually the Press Box area on the Hall of Fame Club level. Was there for the first home run and seeing a ball heading toward the outfield is the norm. I decided to visit Greg Luzinski in his Bull's BBQ. On the way out of the park, I stopped in right-center and stood behind the last row.
Jayson's second at-bat…bases loaded, swing and a long drive….. This time, the ball was heading toward me. It clanked off the Chrysler/Jeep sign in the section to my right and fell into scrambling hands. When Jayson came to bat, one fan stood up and cheered, raising both arms in the air. A few pitches later, everybody in the park was on their feet. Cheering in the press box is strictly prohibited so it was kind of cool to be able to join the cheering throng.
Third homer…heard on my car radio. Fourth at-bat came…saw on my TV set in the kitchen.
Trio at the Park
Since Citizens Bank Park opened, there have been seven players who hit three home runs in a game:
4/21/04 Mike Lowell, Marlins
7/30/04 Aramis Ramirez, Cubs
8/13/04 J. T. Snow, Giants
8/15/06 Jose Reyes, Mets
9/3/06, 1st ga. RYAN HOWARD, vs. Braves
4/13/07 Carlos Lee, Astros
5/16/08 JAYSON WERTH, vs. Blue Jays
This Date
In Phillies history……
1979 A 10inning classic in Wrigley Field: Phillies 23, Cubs 22. 11 homers hit, three by Dave Kingman, two by Mike Schmidt, including gamewinner with two out in top of 10th off Bruce Sutter.
1991 Phillies blank Cubs, 10, in 16 innings, the longest 10 victory in Phillies history and the longest shutout game in Veterans Staduim history.
1993 John Kruk ties club record with five hits (6 AB) in 103 win at Florida, first game for Phillies against expansion Marlins.
2002 SS Jimmy Rollins hit a lead off homer to start the game for the second straight game in Arizona; Randy Johnson on the 16th and Miguel Batista today.

Congratulations on getting one of the home runs!! 🙂

Dear God… It's a Sleazy Family Christmas for the Huckleberry Hound family. The more we look at these Arkansas hillbillies, the more tawdry and pathetic they appear. That's "Super Chunk" David in the middle. That's his sister on his left and his other brother "Mega Chunk" John Mark (who's middle name is "Matthew Luke"). Dave here seems to be nothing more than a giant sized asshole who's never seen an empty can of Slim Fast.
Yeah I can tell. You're thinking exactly what I'm thinking: "The verticle stripes are so slimming!!" Or were you noticing the deer-hunting outfits the girls are wearing?!
husband life-partner said when he saw the picture: "Dear God, we need the ASPCA to rescue that dog!"
Cheezus… Those boys never played a friendly game of Candyland when they were little….They ate it!
In April 2007, David walks into the Little Rock airport packing a loaded Glock (and forty-two dozen Hostess Ho-Ho's) stuffed in his carry-on baggage. Once the X-Ray machine alerted the TSA:
"I removed the bag and asked Mr. Huckabee if he knew what he had in the bag," Little Rock police officer Arthur Nugent wrote in a report after being summoned to a security checkpoint. "He replied he did now."
Yeah… He knew and he didn't give a fuck. Like the Bush Twins, he's another Republican spoiled brat who couldn't give a shit about anybody but himself. They always say that the PK's are the worse too. But when you're the PK and your daddy's a prominent Republican, it gives you the right to just walk on into an airport, stroll on through the security detail with a loaded Glock and nobody will ever call you a terrorist. And when he's asked if he knew he had it – he just shrugs and says; "Yeah…so what? Big deal. What's you're problem with that?"
In December 2001, Baby Huey here was slapped for running a business in Jonesboro (Arkansas State University) without a license. Ordered to march his ass over to the city collector's office and paid the $62.50 fine. So he goes and pays the fee with a bag full of 6,250 pennies.
When asked if he wanted to comment to The Herald, a visibly dissatisfied Huckabee said, "I don't think so."
While Huckabee would not discuss the payment with the press, he did tell city employees of his disgust with the media treatment of the situation.
Huckabee also voiced concern over the attention he was receiving.
"Obviously, there is nothing better to cover on campus than me licensing my company," Huckabee said. "You'd think they would realize no one even reads that paper, or even takes them seriously yet here they are."
Well Asshole, it would appear that everybody is reading that newspaper these days!
Did you notice the reporter explain this arrogant prick's mouth?
While Huckabee would not discuss the payment with the press, he did tell city employees of his disgust with the media treatment of the situation.
He stomps his lard-ass up the steps of city hall carrying a bag of 6,250 pennies. Sweating profusely from the exertion of the seven steps from the curb, he huffs and puffs down the hallway…an exhausting thirteen feet. Red faced and severely deprived of desperately needed oxygen, he slams the bag on the counter and pulls out a Mars bar. While he's pulling out the endless supply of saturated fats, he impatiently glares at the clerk who has to count each and every damned penny. Grover Welch, the author of this article, asked him if he had any comment and Huckabee didn't. Instead, he belches six times, whips out a giant-sized bag of M&M's and bitches at the city employees about his disappointment with the media's attention.
What a disgusting and pathetic little boy…
…All because he tried to avoid paying a licensing fee to the city.
He paid the fine because a month earlier, the Arkansas State University Herald ran a story on Baby Huey, saying he was running illegals businesses on campus selling bullshit to the students. Crap like ball-point pens and promotional concessional trash to the Student Activities Board. At the time, he "owned" two businesses; "H & K Enterprises" and "Pyro-Erectus".
Pyro-Erectus?! Flaming hard-on? Hot cock? Dick that shoots flames?! Who names a business "pyro-erectus"? If that isn't "gay", or at least "wanna-be" gay… I don't know what is!!
But Super Chunk thinks he can avoid paying the $62 licensing fee by bullshitting his way out of it.
H & K Enterprises and Pyro-Erectus are not businesses, but partnerships, said Huckabee, a senior speech communications and political science major of Little Rock.
According to Ken Saddler spokesman for the City Clerk's Office, neither H & K Enterprises nor Pyro-Erectus are licensed as businesses to operate within Jonesboro. According to Saddler, this is illegal no matter the amount of money being made by a business.
You see…It's all all okay now. Partnerships are free and clear to do whatever he feels like
or eats. He goes on, let's see if you can see the "spoiled-rotten part" in this arrogant Republican asshole.
"They are not technically businesses, per se. I am a person who has a partner and we have a joint checking account, is basically what it is," Huckabee said. "I understand what they [the city clerk's office] think because it is portrayed to them that this is a business operation. But it's not a business. It's me operating with a partner who have a joint checking account with a different name on it.
"That's why my business doesn't file taxes. We each file our own individual taxes because the partnership is just basically a checking account. The business is a joint checking account."
What's with all the bullshit about his "partner"? Is he trying to come out of the closet or what?!
Huckabee compared his companies to a kid who mows lawns for his neighbors.
He's not going to go register his business with the city clerk's office, because he cuts his next-door- neighbors-on-either-side's grass. Even though that is a legitimate business," he said. "It's completely legitimate that I provide a service.
I don't have a business; I provide services that I can do. I called my tax attorneys. He said, basically, you don't have a business, you have a partnership."
Yeah… He has a "tax attorney" like my little brother has H&R Block. You can plug your nose and repeat that last paragraph out loud and you probably would sound like the arrogant asshole too. And what's with the over-extended explanation of his "partner". He goes on and on, bloviating about his "partnerships" all in the effort to avoid having to pay a licensing fee.
Who's the partner?! We can offer him a Tic-tac for that soured cream-filling smell on his breath, but pray tell who is that "partner" of his?
And he pulls the "poor pity me" thing too. This is a favorite for both Republicans and "conservative Christians": "They're always hating me because I'm a Republican!" Or it's like Scarborough said about Tom DeLay: He's persecuted because he's a Christian.
…No, it's because they're total jerks.
This is Super Chunk's excuse:
"Trust me, when you have a last name that people like to attack on a regular basis, you make sure that what you do is legal. So, yes, my business, or the things or the services that I provide, are legal to operate," Huckabee said.
Aww yeah… He's such a celebrity there in Jonesboro. He's got that Britney Gucci look, and the chicks all want to run their hands up and down the flabby folds of his body and get their groove on with him. When Baby Huey thunders on past, all the girls stop and stare with an animal-like lust in their eye… But it's bittersweet, you know?! When you're that damned popular…you just have to learn to be harassed.
He's busted for running unlicensed businesses and all he had to do is pay $62.50. Instead, he shows up a month later with a fucking bag full of pennies and stands there bitching at the clerk because the media ran the story. What a pathetic fuck.
Jesus loves you but everybody else thinks you're an asshole!

Memorial service time for healing, forgiveness
Recommended Video:
DALLAS — Cowboys nose tackle Josh Brent stands accused of killing teammate Jerry Brown in a fiery drunk-driving accident, but the mother of the deceased practice-squad linebacker refuses to view him as anything but her son's best friend.
Stacey Jackson made that clear with her actions before, during and after the memorial service for her son Tuesday afternoon.
In a striking display of forgiveness, Brent and Jackson arrived together at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in South Dallas. They also sat in the same row during the hour-long service and left together.
According to the Cowboys' website, Jackson spoke to the team, encouraging it to support Brent. The massive player was charged with intoxication manslaughter after Irving police say he lost control early Saturday morning of his speeding 2007 Mercedes with Brown as a passenger.
The private tribute on a sunny but chilly day was closed to the media.
"We won't have any comment because of the sanctity of the service," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said afterward.
But during his radio show Tuesday morning, Jones said Jackson requested Brent meet her and her family at the airport so they could ride together to the memorial after they arrived from St. Louis on the owner's private jet.
"What happened is so tragic," Jones told KRLD-FM. "But (Jackson) wanted to be right with Josh and to express in every way she could how much they loved him and didn't want to have him grieve for his friend without being included in their family."
Brent, 24, and Brown, 25, were teammates and roommates at Illinois from 2007-09. When Dallas signed Brown, he began rooming again with Brent.
Brown played for the Arena Football League's San Antonio Talons before being signed by Indianapolis in May. The Cowboys signed Brown after the Colts cut him in October.
"Josh was elated when Jerry came on the team," Jones said.
In an appearance on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight" on Monday, Jackson explained why she has embraced Brent.
"I was upset, but I realized our youth today are young and stupid, and we were all once that age, and we've all done things we're not proud of," Jackson said, per YahooSports.com.
"I realized everyone thinks they're invincible, and everyone thinks, 'It's not going to happen to me.' I know Josh Brent, and he's been part of our family since Jerry went to Illinois. All I can do is to pray for him and his family. I know (Brent) is hurting just as much as we are, because (he) and Jerry were like brothers."
Free on $500,000 bail and with his right hand wrapped in a white bandage, Brent wore a white long-sleeved shirt and gray pants to the memorial, where Brown's framed No. 53 Cowboys jersey was displayed. In what was surely an emotional moment, Jackson received the football coach Jason Garrett posthumously awarded Brown after Dallas rallied to defeat Cincinnati on Sunday.
The program for the memorial had a picture of DeMarcus Ware carrying Brown's jersey onto the field Sunday after Dan Bailey kicked the winning field goal as time expired.
Two buses transported some players, coaches and club staffers to the service. Others, including Tony Romo and his wife Candice, arrived in their own cars.
Jay Ratliff was visibly emotional, holding his hands to his face for several seconds.
Tony Evans, senior pastor at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, delivered a sermon. Cowboys chaplain Jonathan Evans read scripture.
Even though he was with the Cowboys only a short time, Brown had an effect, Garrett said Monday.
"He had really bright eyes, a great smile," Garrett said. "He was very passionate about football, and that's one of the things we really liked about him. He poured it all out there every day. I wrote in my notes several times: Jerry Brown, exclamation point, give this guy a chance."
The memorial came on the same day a story appeared in the Dallas Morning News about a witness to the accident who said she had to beg Brent to intervene as Brown screamed for help.
Stacee McWilliams, 40, of Irving, said she repeatedly pleaded with Brent to rescue Brown from the Mercedes, which was upside-down and on fire around 2 a.m. on the service road of State Highway 114.
"Jerry was alive. He was hurt. He was calling out, and his own friend walked away," McWilliams told the newspaper.
Brent's attorney, George Milner, called McWilliams' account "absolutely false."
A funeral service for Brown is set for Friday in St. Louis.

There are two things in Lenoir County you can count on in mid-June � random thunderstorms and the Roy Jones/BB&T Junior Golf Classic.
There are two things in Lenoir County you can count on in mid-June � random thunderstorms and the Roy Jones/BB&T Junior Golf Classic.
The prestigious junior golf tournament is back for a 28th year and will begin today at the Kinston Country Club.
Male and female junior golfers 18 and under will convene on the par-71, Ellis Maples-designed course for two days in search of an age-division title and looking to add to their overall ranking with the Tarheel Youth Golf Association five-multiplier event � the highest ranking a tournament can earn.
This year there are roughly 100 participants spread out across several different age groups.
�I can�t believe we�re here, in our 28th year,� said Jones, a retired local businessman who started the tournament in 1985. �The tournament has just grew and grew and grew.�
This year�s field includes several local standouts, including recent Parrott Academy graduates Riley Davis and Jack Sides. Davis, who is headed to UNC-Pembroke, had a scoring average of 73.6 for the Patriots while Sides, who has signed with High Point University, averaged a team-best 72.

Toward the end of the FC Dallas Kickoff Luncheon on Thursday, Daniel Hernandez was called to the podium. The new team captain gave a relatively brief but heartfelt speech, and even worked in a movie reference for good measure.
After hearing his simple but powerful message, those in attendance knew FCD had found a true leader for the 2010 season, especially given his speech was mostly off the cuff.
"[I prepared] a little bit; they just told me about it yesterday so I tried to get my thoughts together," Hernandez admitted after the speech. "Most of it [was off the cuff]. … It works your nerves like anything else. I would say I'm decent at it. I'm an OK speaker and don't have too many problems doing it."
Hernandez played college ball under current FCD head coach Schellas Hyndman at SMU, and he joined Dallas last summer after a successful stint in Mexico that lasted several years. He quickly became FCD's starting defensive midfielder and early on showed signs of the leadership required to wear the armband this year.
However, Hernandez admitted he had no aspirations to captain the club when he arrived back in Dallas last summer.
"Not really—it probably didn't cross my mind," Hernandez said. "After coming in at the end of the season, you already think that there is a captain, so you wouldn't expect any changes for next year.
"I was so far from thinking about it because I was more excited about being home and being back with Schellas."
Wearing the armband for his former college coach, with whom he maintains a close personal relationship, gives the captaincy added meaning.
"It means a lot," Hernandez said. "I think it's a respect thing. It really makes me feel good and appreciative towards him because I know he looks at me as a leader."
Hernandez said he has always cared what Hyndman thinks of him.
"When I was with other teams or in Mexico playing, I always thought about it and hoped that I was making him proud," Hernandez said. "That's just the type of relationship I have with him."
The two even exchange gifts around the holidays, and Hernandez said he feels a great responsibility in his role because of their relationship.
"I want to try and do a great job for Schellas, who I feel is a great friend to me besides being my coach and the leader of this team," he said. " I think we're going to have a great season, and I just hope the fans continue to come out and support us because I think it will be well worth it this year."
The new FC Dallas captain will get the 2010 regular season underway along with the rest of his teammates on Saturday when Houston visits Pizza Hut Park for an afternoon tilt. Appropriately enough, the first 5,000 fans in the gate will receive an official FC Dallas Captain's Armband. And for Hernandez, wearing that armband will have no small meaning.
"I just feel real humbled and excited and proud to be able to carry that armband here at home in front of my family and friends," Hernandez said. "Everybody knows that Houston is always a tough team to play regardless of when you play them or what the circumstances are. With the slow start that we had last year, everybody is expecting us to really pick it up and have a better start."

Local Love Fridays: Own Your Own Business - Become a Member of the People's Food Co-op
Photo Credit: ©2009 Kevin Sharp
My own experiences with Ann Arbor's People's Food Co-op started back in my student days, as they do for many Ann Arborites. First off, I'd come to Ann Arbor from Berkeley, CA, and secondly, it was still a whisper of the 70s (early 1980 to be exact), so the idea that a food co-op was one of the first things I'd seek out was a natural.
I spent the first couple of years as a co-op member cutting the cheese. I kid you not. And it was one of the stinkiest jobs imaginable, but it earned me my extra 5% discount, so it was worth every wire through every block of Jarlsburg.
These days, The Ann Arbor People's Food Co-op is in one location, rather than two. It has a gorgeous cafe that sells a huge variety of coffee drinks, sandwiches, juices and baked goods, and it has a full, delicious hot bar and salad bar. (Also, the volunteer discount program is discontinued, much to the chagrin of cheese-cutters everywhere).
And we now have a bright, shiny store with a large variety of local, national and international products, all natural, all carefully selected under co-op guidelines:

And I'm still a member. Why?
Because we own the place. All of us. Every single member. All 6000 of us.
We get to make business decisions through our democratically-elected board members, and we have excellent professionals running our business for us. And we get to buy delicious, natural, local (when possible) foods and products. Who wouldn't want to be a share owner of that?
I sat down with Kevin Sharp, Outreach Director at the PFC, to get his take on what makes the People's Food Co-op unique, and Kevin's response was this: each co-op is designed to uniquely serve its members, so our co-op is a reflection of our community. While the Hyde Park co-op in Chicago carries Heinz Ketchup and Coca Cola because the members demand it, our co-op has a completely Fair Trade coffee bar and an emphasis on locally grown products.
Ah, yes - locally grown. Music to my ears.
The Co-op has long been in partnership with many of the area's farmers, and has actually had a symbiotic relationship with some local organic farmers for two generations now:
"They helped us get going and we helped them get going and this is the second generation of local organic growers, and hopefully we'll be here 20, 30, 40, 50 years from now, we're in an area that's now producing more of our local foods, but that's changing and growing and we'll sell those things as much as possible."
Photo Credit: ©2009 Kevin Sharp
One of the great things about the Co-op is the solidity and the longevity. Even in Michigan's economy, the Co-op is solid, solid financially, and it will be around to serve us even as larger ventures tumble. And that means I can get food I trust from people I trust.
And that's the reason to be a member - to help to provide that stability for the local economy and to ensure that the Co-op will be here for generations to come. Plus, you receive many wonderful benefits.
As Kevin said it, "The local aspect is one of our core issues. It will stick with us long after the bigbox stores move on. Our business is really stable, even in this economy. With all the other options in town people still come down to this little storefront."
Besides, you can get wonderful things like these blueberry bars (Photo Credit: ©2009 Kevin Sharp)and a cup of great Roos Roast Free Speech Roospresso at the Co-op's Cafe Verde:

Wow! Nice to know you also have Co-ops...unfortunately ours here don't operate as successfully as yours there.
Co-ops here are usually to give financial aids to people who wants to starts small business...like those vendors in Larsian.
However in the suburbs area...like where my grandparents' farm is...they have something like yours! :)
This is such a nice idea!
- June 12, 2009 at 8:47 AM
- Jen said...
Mariposa, we also have similar business co-ops. This store, and many others like it are part of a national Food Co-ops association. I can't remember the exact name of it right now. There are also giant co-op supermarkets in California and maybe some other states as well, and they are very different in character from this one, but they still provide good food at good prices for their members. Again, I loved your post on Larsian!

I've never heard of those co-ops. It's a good thing to help start business. Nice initiative

Me, too! I've been a member of the co-op for just about as long as you have. Love my lifetime membership!

so cool! wish we had one around here.
by the way... love the family picture!

- Trish said...
Just a point of correction, the Hyde Park Co-op did carry a large selection of Fair Trade coffee but it also went out of business over a year ago.
- June 12, 2009 at 2:28 PM
- Jen said...
Jackie - it seems so weird, because I first found out about them when I lived in your area - you might want to see if there are any around.
Anno - it really is one of the treasures of Ann Arbor.
PM - there really are no co-ops in NOLA? I would have thought there would be. It's interesting to hear how relatively rare they are.
Trish - I'm sorry to hear that. The Fair Trade coffee I was speaking about is at the Cafe Verde which is part of the Ann Arbor People's Food Co-op. Kevin was illustrating the fact that individual co-ops will meet the needs of each community.

- Marianne Arkins said...
I'm so jealous! We had a co-op in Sacramento I belonged to (The Sacramento Natural Foods Co-op) that almost mirrors yours. Nothing like that here anywhere...
Great post and, man I miss the cafe at SNFC. I used to get the veggie sandwich on wheat-walnut bread (it was PURPLE! LOL)... and a really yummy smoothie.

- Kitchen Chick said...
My first job at the former Packard street location was weeding out the bad potatoes from the potato box! I haven't volunteered in years, but I do still shop there.

- Unknown said...
"Much to the chagrin of cheese-cutters everywhere..."
That was awesome. (So was the rest of the post, but I'll just say a big DITTO to everyone else's comments on that front.)
- June 13, 2009 at 1:04 AM
- Jen said...
Marianne, I must say, co-ops absolutely rock, and it would be weird for me at this point to live someplace without one. Especially if I was a vegetarian. I wonder what caused the wheat to be purple? I cook sometimes with a heritage corn grain called Bloody Baker that turns baked goods purplish - I wonder if it was blue corn in the mix?
Kitchen Chick - I think they no longer have the volunteer program on that level (probably due to the fact that some of our volunteer work was pretty random, I would imagine), but it's still a wonderful place to shop!
Cindy - thanks so much! I really appreciate it.
- June 13, 2009 at 6:41 AM
- Acedog said...
I love the co-op model and have proposed it for a number of business ventures. MOstly, however, I value co-ops for the quality of the food and the participatory nature of the enterprise.
- June 13, 2009 at 1:08 PM
- Kim said...
Wow - great post on the People's Food Co-op, Jen! It's my longest running membership. :) I love that they're a go-to place for "grown in Michigan" stuff and other groceries that are healthful.
It's become our main and only grocery store. I love how small and manageable it is - I don't have to spend half an hour just getting from one end to the other. And I'm energized enough to walk home rather than completely exhausted by the experience.
Speaking of which, I have never once seen anyone beating up on their kids at the Coop - which had come to seem inevitable (in my experience) at many of the big box stores. Sad but true.
Make Co-ops, Not Krogers! Heh heh.
- June 13, 2009 at 8:23 PM
- Jen said...
Acedog - I couldn't agree with you more.
Kim - that's another positive, and you're right - plus, kids seem so much less stressed out when shopping with their parents at the co-op. Of course, maybe a promised treat at Cafe Verde helps that. ;-) Even without, though, it's a much happier experience in general, I think!
- June 14, 2009 at 3:05 PM
- hotmamamia said...
We have our East End Coop but it's not nearly as large and lovely as yours. I should shop there more often but it is out of the way...poor excuse, I know! Bothing beats the beutiful fruits and veggies...I think I will head there tomorrow!
Oh, and I do want you to know that we in Pittsburgh do appreciate how valiantly Detroit played the entire 7 game series...it was just our turn this time! Maybe we'll have a tie-breaker next year!
- June 15, 2009 at 12:00 AM
- Jen said...
Hotmama - it's definitely easier if your co-op is nearby, which ours is for us. Thanks for the gracious words about the Wings... needless to say, Detroit is pouting. But I have to actually agree - it WAS your turn, even though I was teasing Lilac on her blog.
- June 15, 2009 at 9:09 AM
- Brian Miller said...
stopping by from Lola's...lovely piece. we are in a season here of encouraging more "living locally". great that the co-op is a way to support that and that it reflects your community so well.
have to check and see if we have one here. have a great day!
- June 15, 2009 at 10:30 AM
- Thistlemoon said...
I wish we had a co-op here. It looks like a great thing to buy into!
- June 15, 2009 at 12:43 PM
- Ivy said...
Thanks for passing from my blog even if I haven't been around lately. We have co-ops in Cyprus but not in Greece but they are much different that the ones you describe.
- June 15, 2009 at 1:48 PM
- Jen said...
Brian, thanks so much for visiting! I loved your blog, as well - I found that I couldn't comment, though, as the embedded comment feature doesn't work when I try to comment. I know that's the case for many others, as well, and it can be fixed by going to full-page comments or pop=up comments - it's a bug with blogger. I'm so glad Lola "introduced" some of us today!
Jenn - it's amazing me how few communities seem to have these today. They were such a constant when I was first moving around a lot.
Ivy - what kind of co-ops are there in Cyprus? We also have co-ops where people get together to buy basics like dairy or vegetables in bulk, and then split everything. Is it similar to that model?
- June 15, 2009 at 5:08 PM
- Alex said...
I lived by the co-op for three years, and it was my most frequent shopping destination. Cafe Verde was part of my morning routine, and the food bar fed me many nights. There are many things I love about it, and I am thrilled with my membership. They do a lot with a little, and I recommend membership to everyone.
But there are some things they could do better. I can't count the number of times I got a head of garlic that was already turning. Maybe I'm just a bad judge of garlic, or maybe it's that I've never had to judge it. There are a few other items that just are consistently bad like that, and I've never figured out why, or what to do about it. Instead I've learned to pick and choose, and continue to be grateful that I can find burduck at the last minute for a Japanese dish.

My mom was a member back in the '70s didn't know it was still around. I remember the giant blocks of white cheddar tho.
- June 21, 2009 at 10:28 PM
- Jen said...
Alex, you know, though, I've had that problem with garlic with Whole Foods and Trader Joe's, too. I think it may be endemic to garlic - maybe especially organic garlic. What I've noticed, though, over the years is that while there is still funkiness from time to time, the PFC just gets more and more professional. Good point, though. And thanks so much for stopping by!
Rosa - is there anything similar where you live?
Anne - The worst part for me is that in my sense memory, I can still *smell* those blocks of cheese! How long did you live in A2?

Unfortunately our Co Op closed in Hyde Park more than year ago. It was a great idea replaced by the pricier Treasure Island.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) – Mormon missionaries will soon spend less time knocking on doors and more time chatting online with potential converts.
Leaders with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints say it's critical to adapt to a changing world in which many people prefer to connect over social media.
The strategy shift announced Sunday in a worldwide broadcast from Provo, Utah, will start in a limited number of locations this year and should be in place worldwide next year.
Elder L. Tom Perry of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles says missionaries will be using Facebook, blogs, email, text messages and the church's website, Mormon.org, in their ministry.
There are more Mormon missionaries than ever due to a lowering of the minimum age eight months ago.

I'm very surprised that Jeffrey and Christina Lurie are divorcing, but that's how it nearly always is, really -- other than Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, when was the last time you heard of a couple splitting up and thought "hey, I figured that was coming"?
Marriages don't usually play out in public. Most couples are good at seeming happy to strangers, acquaintances, even close friends. I have no idea what happened with the Luries, and I figure that's their business. I won't be delving into it.
But I will be delving into what this means for the Eagles, which is everybody's business. In the statements that were released Wednesday evening -- letting everyone know late on a national holiday absolutely was an attempt to control fallout, of course -- the couple kept stressing how the operation of the franchise would be unaffected. That's at odds, frankly, with the organization's longstanding stance about how integral Christina Lurie has been to the nonfootball aspects of the team. A 2010 Inquirer profile detailed how Christina spurned a "wives' afternoon" at the NFL owners' meetings to sit in on the business session, and quoted NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on her prominence in such ventures as the "Go Green" enviornmental initiative.
But of course, according to those statements, the Luries will remain partners in the running of the Eagles, just not in marriage. Maybe so. Sounds kinda tricky to me. This is something reporters will be watching closely. Funny how this intensely private couple, who would never even talk about their home or their kids to reporters, or divulge the children's names, have done the one thing that will now turn a bright spotlight on their relationship.
Those fervent "everything is fine here" statements notwithstanding, we can't possibly know what this means to the Eagles yet. But I'm struck by the coincidence of a second huge, behind-the-scenes change, less than a month after the announced departure of team president Joe Banner. Of course, whatever happened between the Luries has nothing to do with what happened with Banner, or with Jeffrey Lurie's growing discomfort over how the Eagles organization is perceived by fans.
But let's dive right in here and address something sensitive. (This is the sort of paragraph that ensures I will never be an organizational confidante. And I'm OK with that.) Christina Lurie, with that hard-to-place French/Spanish/whatever accent, with the Vera Wang ideas and the high-minded philanthropic focus, was and is about as unPhilly as you could possibly get. Jeffrey is unPhilly too -- wealthy guy from the Boston suburbs -- but he at least is approachable, will at least nod in agreement in a discussion of, say, the ubiquity of Pete Retzlaff in mid-60s packs of football bubblegum cards. Christina has always seemed to me to be, if not a visitor from another planet, certainly a visitor from another culture, observing ours through gritted teeth. I've covered the team 10 years now, and never had a one-on-one conversation with her, never done more than exchanged mild pleasantries in a group setting.
So, does this divorce announcement make the Eagles less hoity-toity, in any way? The main question I got on Twitter Wednesday night was whether the Eagles would now go back to their traditional kelly green, the color Christina famously disliked. She always portrayed it as both of them dislking it and preferring the midnight green she chose. Maybe now we'll know.
But Eagles fans will be lucky if something like uniform color turns out to be the biggest change resulting from this divorce. The kind of setup the Luries detailed in their message to team employees Wednesday night seems difficult to maintain, even with the best of intentions.
