Cypriots have been invited to choose their favourite nationally produced songs for an innovative EU-wide song book – again.
They were initially asked to vote in 2016 but back then the project was halted due to a problem with translation from Greek.
Now Cypriots have another chance. From Friday just gone, and lasting for a month, they can vote for their favourite traditional songs in six categories which they want Cyprus to represent in the first European song compilation.
It started as an idea to promote a common European culture and was conceived by a Danish NGO.
“If we Europeans want to step back from just the economy – coal, metals, and fish – and to direct ourselves towards culture, we have to take the leadership of Europe into our own hands,” said Jeppe Marsling, the founder and president of the EU song book project.
The first edition of the European song book will be released on Europe Day on May 9, 2019. It will contain 162 songs in the local languages of the participating countries and in English.
Any profit will be used to finance a second issue that will translate all the songs into the 24 EU languages, so that everyone, whether or not they know English, can sing and comprehend all the lyrics.
The songs are sorted into the following six categories: love songs, nature and seasons, freedom and peace, folk and traditional songs, songs of faith and children’s songs.
Since May 2015, more than 26,000 people from 15-member states have voted on the six songs, one for each category, which will represent them. Greece just finished voting, and Cyprus is the next on the list to cast its votes. After that, the project will be extended to Portugal, Belgium and Malta, where students, teachers and members of choirs have chosen six songs for each category of their musical tradition prior to opening up the choice to the public.
To prepare the Cyprus vote, students and staff of the music academy ARTE have shortlisted 46 Cypriot songs.
http://www.eu-songbook.org.Voting is conducted in 24 languages – including Greek.

4 Sunflower Media has just began publishing a new series of 10 storybooks, written by Marilynn Halas and illustrated by Jeremy Provost, that facilitate a child's social-emotional development by helping them learn the life skills they need to live a happy and balanced life. The first book in the series, Hello, We're The Fuzzwippers was released earlier this year and introduces us and our children to the Fuzzwippers.
Welcome to the Land of the Fuzzwippers!
Fuzzwippers are friendly creatures that reach out to anyone who needs to be assured that they are wanted and needed. Children of all ages will be fascinated by these new-found friends who whisper to them in the language of Imaginarius and accompany them wherever they go. Introduce your children to their very own Fuzzwippers!
This story is absolutely adorable and a wonderful addition to any child's or elementary school's library. With bullying being so prominent--being reminded that "they are loved, no matter what" is vital. Imaginary friends are such an important part of a young child's life and they can provide support during those times parents can't be there. The Fuzzwippers are really a cute idea since they just look like little puff balls, it is really easy for a child to imagine and remember their own Fuzzwipper is with them (if need be, you could really find a puff for them to keep with them, giving them that extra support)--I wonder what your child's Fuzzwipper looks like and what its name is. My son's is black & orange (his favorite colors) and he hasn't settled on a name yet. I love that Fuzzwippers help give a child more confidence and help put them at ease in difficult situations--just the way only an imaginary, positive friend can. It is also written at a level that a beginning reader can read and the illustrations really help bring the book to life. It is a good introduction to the Fuzzwippers and the positive messages they will be teaching throughout the series.
The second book in the series, Fuzzwippers Find Good Listener is scheduled to be released on September 24, 2012. This story helps children learn how to be a good listener. I haven't seen this book yet, but I am sure it is great, especially given the important lesson that it is teaching! So important!
Be sure to keep an eye on the Fuzzwipper website--I have a feeling that it is going to have some great support and information on it in the near future. Plus, watch for the next 8 books, as they are released with more positive lessons for our children.
Thank you to Goodman Media for my sample used in this review, opinions are honest, review by Michelle.

At a community update meeting on the progress of the RFK redevelopment, residents voiced heightened concerns over transparency regarding a potential NFL stadium deal.
The Summit Point Karts racetrack in RFK’s Lot 8 is not the kind of go-kart track you grew up on. If you really want to see the difference, go check out the race happening there Friday night.
What’s at RFK Stadium these days? Go-Karts — but not just any type of Go-Karts. If you’re going to try out the Go-Karts at Summit Point, you’re going to be treated like a burgeoning race car driver.

After his decision to not participate in the Jammu and Kashmir panchayat and urban local body polls, National Conference party chief Farooq Abdullah on Saturday threatened to withdraw from the 2019 Lok Sabha and Assembly elections if the Centre did not clear its stance on Articles 35A and 370.
Article 35A refers to a constitutional provision that allows the Jammu & Kashmir assembly to define permanent residents of the state. According to the Jammu & Kashmir Constitution, a Permanent Resident is defined as a person who was a state subject on May 14, 1954, or who has been residing in the state for a period of 10 years, and has “lawfully acquired immovable property in the state”.
Article 370, on the other hand, guarantees special status to the state.
“Agencies are spreading rumours that Kashmiri Pandits are scared. What Jagmohan (J&K Guv: 1984-89 and Jan-May’90) did earlier, they (agencies) think by spreading such rumours, the Kashmiri Pandits will leave. There’ll be an uproar in the rest of the country and Hindus and Muslims will be killed,” the NC leader alleged.

Create a “Countdown Calendar” with your son or daughter to mark the days until one parent or the other is to be deployed. Although not always possible, include subsequent dates on the calendar for emails, phone calls, and the eventual return. Reverse the process when a parent deploys and create a “Homecoming Calendar” to mark the time until the deployed parent returns.
Create a series of short videos of the soon-to-be deployed parent and show them to your child on a regular basis.
To the extent possible, work with your son or daughter with autism to take advantage of electronic media (such as e-mail or Skype®) to stay in touch with his or her deployed parent.
If you know a deployment is pending, plan ahead. Determine what additional help, specifically, you are going to need and prioritize your needs. For example, even though it may be quite helpful to have someone assist in getting everyone ready for the school in the morning, it might be more important to have someone to help out after school when you are making dinner. Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it. See if your child’s school has an after-school program he or she can attend. Recruit volunteers from your community of faith, extended family, and neighbors to help out when you most need it.
Learn to accept the simple fact that despite all your best efforts, there will be days that are, to be generous, less than perfect. If it is the result of a problem that can be fixed, do so and move on. If you find yourself having to modify your personal standards of success (e.g. accepting that getting into a battle on the use of a specific “sippy cup” may not be the best use of your time) then do so and move on. All that can be expected of you is your best effort and on days when that simply does not seem to be enough, do what you can and move on. Tomorrow is always another day.
Network with other parents both inside and outside of the military. Other parents are often great sources of ideas and strategies to make each day go as smoothly as possible.
Although it is a cliché, you will need to find some time for yourself to take care of yourself. Whether it is regular exercise, reading for pleasure, meditation, carpentry, or anything you prefer, the more you can work the activity into your daily or weekly schedule, the better you will be able to deal with stressors associated with a pending or current deployment.
Offer the Military Kids Connect website to your child to help them cope with feelings of separation and anxiety. It is a website designed for children ages 6-18 and uses humor, empathy, testimonials, and visuals to address challenges caused by deployment. Learn More.

Price began his military service in 1937 with the 1st Coast Artillery. Drafted in 1940, he returned to Fort Bragg for boot camp and later worked at Camp Davis, the first man, he says, to be drafted from Cleveland County. On D-Day + 16, he landed at Normandy with the 56th General Hospital and cared for the wounded from the many battles that followed. When the Army — desperate for front line soldiers — gave him the opportunity to fight, he joined the 106th Infantry Division. His timing couldn’t have been worse: the 106th was demolished by Hitler’s army in the Ardennes Offensive. A wonderful storyteller, Falls tells about the war from several perspectives including the loss of one of his brothers.

When you think about your favorite children's author, who comes to mind? Shel Silverstein? Beverly Cleary? J. K. Rowling? My assistant thinks Lucy Maud Montgomery (she simply adored Anne of Green Gables as a child), but I think -- hands down -- Roald Dahl. While the Harry Potter series was nothing short of amazing and while the adventures of Ramona Quimby and her sister Beezus were indeed endearing, think about it: Charlie and Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach...do any other children's novels sound as delicious and fitting for a budding baker? Oh, the thrill of exploring a chocolate factory. Oh, the things I could make with a massive peach!
Imagine my excitement when my assistant was invited to co-host a Roald Dahl-themed brunch party with her friend Julia. James and the Giant Peach Cobbler, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Fondue, a cocktail punch bowl inspired by George's Marvelous Medicine -- my head was spinning with ideas. My assistant decided to do what we do best: cake.
Why not bring a rich, fudgy cake as homage to Bruce Bogtrotter of Matilda -- the boy who triumphantly devoured a gigantic chocolate cake as punishment for stealing a slice belonging to wicked Miss Trunchbull? Two layers of moist chocolate cake frosted with creamy chocolate buttercream -- Miss Trunchbull's Chocolate Cake, as we called it, was a perfect ending to a bountiful brunch.
Thanks, Julia, for hosting a scrumdiddlyumptious party. Reader, do you remember which book that was from?
Yikes! That looks so moist I could drink it. Yummy!

ZOMBIE ABBEY is a twist of Downton Abbey and zombies. It's set historically in England at a manor house where the upstairs and downstairs characters are thrown together in a fight of survival when an unusual disease spreads through the countryside turning the people into zombies. It makes for a rather humorous story that was entertaining from beginning to end!
This story... it was too much fun! The contrast between these starchy gentry, the lower class, and the zombie situation was so hilarious. There was a constant undertone of suspense and danger, due to the circumstances, that the author did a magnificent job of maintaining through the entire story. There were also sweet moments between family and friends, with a few possible romantic moments, as well as some bitter moments when tragedy strikes. The characters were marvelously done! There were a lot of different points of view, but it worked for me in this story. I also appreciated that there wasn't a strong romantic element. I like my romance, but this story just set up for things that might occur later on.
In the end, was it what I wished for? This story was balanced so well and was a delightful read! Highly recommend for YA fans and those who like or don't mind zombie stores, especially those on the milder side. I can't wait for book two!
Content: Mild swearing and some violence related to zombies.
Source: I received a complimentary eARC from the publisher through NetGalley, which did not require a positive review nor affect it in any way.

Circle is an independent thriller exclusive to Netflix. The audience is immediately launched into the film upon waking with one of the cast. We find ourselves in the middle of a dark room, standing on a small platform part of a circle formation containing around fifty other people. In the centre of the circle is a large globe which glows ominously, slowly the others begin to wake. The basic plot is very quickly established, after every two minutes, a flash of lightning strikes out from the orb and kills one person within the room. The victim appears to be randomly chosen at first until it is also worked out that people can vote for who they want to die next. This process plays out throughout the film creating an extremely intense atmosphere as you’re left wondering who will die next?
The characters are played by a relatively unknown cast, this benefits it in a way as it feels like you’re watching real people. There are both male and females of all ages and races present further adding to the feeling that you’re just watching a typical Hollywood film as no one is really presented with that ‘Hollywood sheen’, instead they look like people you would pass walking down the street. The only criticism I would perhaps have is that a few of the characters were a presented a tad too stereotypically and could have maybe done with a little more subtlety. For the most part though, the characters were engaging enough that it made the process more intriguing to watch as you knew they could be voted for at any moment.
The characters seem to be as much in the dark as the audience as to why they’ve been put in this situation. A few of them have theories and idea which they mention throughout the film, slowly drip feeding the audience some information that could be relevant. A few minor questions are blatantly answered, such as what happens if you don’t vote and what happens if you attempt to run. The bigger questions regarding who is behind the game and why they are doing it are not answered as quickly and instead requires the audience to think using some of the information hinted towards by the script. Depending on your view this could potentially be a tad frustrating however it never feels as if it’s ruining the movie.
As mentioned above, the plot is fairly bare, however the discussions that arise from the situation are fascinating. The film is definitely meant to be an examination of human nature and it does that extremely well. The directors took inspiration from the Movie 12 Angry Men (one of last month’s hidden gem picks) and it is clearly demonstrated here as a number of the characters argue within a very confined space. The criteria for what makes a human “good” or “bad” are constantly shifting in this film as the characters find themselves having to continuously ask each other who amongst them is least worthy of living. It’s very easy for the audience to get drawn into these discussions, especially in situations where the characters are stuck deciding between two characters as to which should live or die. If you’re looking for a movie that is slightly challenging, this would definitely be worth a serious consideration. The movie is well filmed by directorial debuts Aaron Hann and Mario Miscione with angles that make you feel as if you are in the room too. The highlighting of the mysterious orb in the centre constantly reinforces the tension as death for any of the characters is only a small shot away.

Lions midfielder Allen Christensen describes his battle with addiction as a "rollercoaster".
After two years of proving himself in the VFL reserves, the Victorian was given the nod for the Cats. While enjoying an impressive debut season - as Geelong claimed the 2011 premiership - a darker chapter of the rising star's life off the field was emerging.
He began sinking his wage into horse racing. Before long it became an addiction he admits "consumed his life".
In the first episode of his podcast Addicted to The Game, Christensen recalled the time he was forced to try and win $200 from a five dollar note just to pay rent that week - and how every establishment in Geelong became connected with a win or a loss.
"At the time I thought I needed to make a decision for me to stop that cycle," Christensen said, per AFL.com.au.
"Everywhere I walked in Geelong … that's the pub I turned $30 into $5000 or that's the pub we turned $1000 into $5, everywhere I walked."
The drug of continuous sports betting - which at times netted the young star tens of thousands of dollars in a single day - had taken hold.
"I just wanted to be on every race," he said.
"It consumed so much of my life. Everything I did revolved around racing.
"I'd deposited just over $300,000 into my account, I don't know how much I took out, but it was a cycle.
Allen Christensen has bravely opened up about his struggle with gambling.
"I'd say definitely hundreds of thousands of dollars (were lost), at the track, at the TAB.
"Biggest outlay was $18,000. The next race I acted like it never happened. (The) biggest amount I won was around $50,000 in a day, but I think I lost a lot of that over the next week."
"He came knocking on the door and told me he'd been hearing things about me owing money to some people," Christensen said. "(He said) 'We need to help you'.
Christensen was soon in talks with the Brisbane Lions and admitted "absolutely everything" to the Queensland club.
"I don't know if I could have gone cold turkey straight away if I didn't leave Geelong," he said.
"I'm forever grateful to Brisbane for taking a chance on me at the time, there was a lot of s*** being spoken about me. Ever since I got the trade to Brisbane I was able to remove those triggers from my life and become that person I wanted to be."
Under coach Chris Fagan's guidance in 2019, Brisbane is hotly tipped to rise from its recent woes, with some believing the Lions can secure a first finals spot since 2009.

text: As I was browsing the internet looking at different bimini tops it occurred to me that they really all look pretty similar. The difference between most of them has a lot to do with price. Price can be influenced by many different variables. The biggest probably being where it was manufactured. Find a bimini top for under 200.00 with a frame? You can bet it was probably made in China. That is just the way it goes. There are also the “cookie cutter” bimini tops and frames out there as well. Nothing wrong with that. There is a place in the market for those type of bimini tops and frames too. Quality of the raw materials, work force, even location go into pricing out these very similar looking tops. No doubt some are better than others. No doubt about it, you typically get what you pay for. But what if you want something different? Something that will set your boat off from everyone else? The bimini top is very often the first thing people notice about your boat when you are out on the water. I for one like to be the guy on the water that has something different than everyone else. I like being approached by fellow boaters about my boat and my bimini top. I’ve got a bimini top unlike any other on the lake I’m on. The frame is curved. Not curved side to side – everyone’s does that. No my main bow, front bow, and braces are curved. They “lean back” as my son puts it. We did it for a reason – it looks pretty cool on the boat. It attracts attention. It is different than any other bimini top I’ve seen. There are a couple of boat builders out there doing it now too. It is catching on. I haven’t seen any in the aftermarket yet though – except for mine. My Northstar Bimini Top with a curved frame. It turns heads wherever I go. Won’t cost you an arm and a leg either. Come check out how we stay ahead of the competition on price, quality, and style. Come check out Northstar Products Inc.

Hemp Wobbles, bargain hemp jersey boosters!
When we make our hemp jersey boosters up we are left with a strip of hemp each time. I used to throw these away but hated doing so, I have decided to make boosters up out of these strips and see if they sell. They are quite timely to make but i do hate throwing away fabric, especially with the price of hemp so we thought we would give it a go and offer you the opportunity of some bargain hemp boosters.
So these boosters are made of strips of hemp jersey stitched together making up a 4 layer hemp booster, approx dimentions are 36cm * 12cm but this will vary.

I'm happy I found this small but precious corner of the web. Great place you have here, thanks for having me.
My wife and I are going to Plakias for the first time this fall. We've already booked a flight for two weeks in September. Our first choice for accomodoation, Annas, is fully booked. We were offered a place in Fedra instead, which looks nice an is situated just outside town. Still, we tend to skip it as we're not sure about the construction work in the neighbourhood. The host confirmed that there is an appartment complex being build some 400 meters away, and I'm not sure what to think of that. Does anybody have an update on the development work I saw mentioned in some other threads here?
So we're tending to Limani or Olive Grove now. Has anybody ever been in Olive Grove? It looks nice, with a large terrace on ground floor. As for Limani, I'm not sure how busy the surrounding area is. Do a lot of people pass by your balcony or terrace when your sitting there? Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for especially seclusive and quiet.
I'm happy for any recommendations, likewise for a night out and car rental.

We love this book, overshadowed by the fame of Harlem and the wealth of the Upper East Side, East Harlem is rarely noted as a historical enclave, which it is. However, from the early 1800s through today, East Harlem has welcomed wave after wave of immigrants struggling for a place in the nation’s most famous city. African Americans, Irish, Germans, European Jews, Italians, Scandinavians, Puerto Ricans, and Latinos are among the ethnic groups who have shaped this neighborhood, bringing with them their religious, social, and culinary traditions.
East Harlem is the first volume to tell this legendary neighborhood’s history through images and Christopher Bell’s insight as the anchor of the book of the ship. Photographs of the iron, stone, and rubber factories, the tenements, the 100th Street community, famous politicians like Fiorella LaGuardia, the Second and Third Avenue elevated subways, St. Cecilia’s, and many other subjects capture East Harlem’s past in one memorable collection.

Minding the Light by Suzanne Woods Fisher is a historical fiction novel set in 1662 Nantucket, examining the relationship between the whalemaster Captain Reynolds Macy and the likable, spirited protagonist, Daphne Coffin. Fisher’s writing is captivating, descriptive, and enjoyable to read.
I really liked the historical fiction aspect of the book, and I learned a lot about the culture of Nantucket Island in the seventeenth century. Daphne’s relationship with Captain Reynolds Macy is enjoyable to watch as it plays out, and their interactions are one of foundations that holds this great book together. Daphne Coffin is definitely a strong role model for girls, and Fisher wonderfully emphasizes the importance of faith and family.

Thinking about how to write a cancellation letter? Not finding the right words? Then read on.
Cancellation letters, as their name suggests, are written to convey that you are canceling something that was supposed to take place. It could be about canceling a rental agreement, an appointment, a meeting or any other legal contract. Or it could be for canceling a subscription, an account, a reservation or an order placed - all require a letter of cancellation. Cancellation is like the ending of a contract. And to convey it to the concerned parties, you require to draft a letter of cancellation.
What is a Letter of Cancellation?
Before we look at how to write a cancellation letter, let's understand the concept of cancellation. Now, your letter of cancellation might be intended at canceling a subscription; it may seem trivial but the procedure for canceling does require a letter conveying the same. A letter may have to be written with the purpose of canceling an already announced engagement. Though the subject in both the cases is cancellation, the two need to be dealt with in different ways. Thus you will see that the way a cancellation letter is drafted depends on what is to be canceled. A cancellation should be conveyed in the written form. Verbal communication is not the right way to do it. Here are the dos and don'ts for writing a letter of cancellation.
In case of canceling your subscription or canceling an order placed, mention the stipulated period within which you want the cancellation procedure to be completed. You can choose to mention the reason for cancellation in case the ordered product or service does not meet your expectations. In case you had placed the order looking at an advertisement of the product, and if you have found that it does not meet the claims made in advertisements, you can mention this in the letter of cancellation. You can give other reasons (if any) for the cancellation if you wish to.
On date of order, I had placed an order for item ordered with your company. The product was delivered to me on date. I have found that the product is faulty. details of the fault I wish to cancel the order and request you to refund the amount paid (amount). I would appreciate if you could complete the procedure in 10 days. Please notify me about having accepted my request for cancellation.
There are instances when you are caught up in something because of which you are unable to make it to a meeting already scheduled or an appointment you had fixed. Now if you wish to cancel it, you need to write a cancellation letter for the same. In such a situation, you should express apology in your letter and your reason behind the cancellation. Be precise and ensure that you don't sound rude. Canceling an appointment or a meeting may appear as though you are disregarding someone else's time, it might disturb the other person's schedule. So state the reason, appear genuine, and be polite.
Due to a medical emergency in my family, I will have to cancel my appointment with you. We were going to meet in your office on date and time. But I will not be able to make it this time. I would like to reschedule the appointment next week. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Is the letter for cancellation of a bank or credit card account any different? Not much but a little yes, because money transactions may be involved in an account cancellation procedure. If you want to cancel your account, request the concerned authorities to carry out the procedure within the notice period, tell them that they should no longer continue any activity with the account. Remember to transfer your funds from the account to some other active account. In case the cancellation procedure needs you to pay a certain fee, keep that much balance in the account to be canceled. Discontinue the ongoing transactions involving that account.
This is to inform you that I wish to close my account with your company. I request you to make the cancellation effective within a notice period of 15 days. Please send me a written confirmation that my account has been closed. I would like to thank you in advance for considering my request.
Writing a cancellation letter has a dual benefit. One, it makes the communication more formal. Two, it helps you maintain a record of the communication between you and the concerned party. It serves as a written proof of your communication about the cancellation. The communication can be called complete only when the opposite party responds with a confirmation or acceptance in some form. Do not forget to ask the opposite party for a written confirmation of the cancellation.
Before closing the article, I would like to mention a few other important points you should remember while writing a cancellation letter.
End the letter by thanking the concerned authorities for considering your cancellation request.
If you are writing the letter on your company/organization's behalf, print it on the company letterhead.
State your/your company's details on top, address it to the concerned company officials/individual(s) with their details following yours and end it with your name, date and signature.

The volume and complexity of change that organizations are facing continues to increase, and they cannot risk the negative impacts of not executing their business critical changes. Whether focused on cost reduction, process redesign, mergers, restructuring or a large IT implementation, it can be difficult for organizations to capture the full value from their change activities.
A 2008 IBM survey “Making Change Work” identified an average 22% gap between the amount of substantial change an organization expected and an organization’s success at actually changing. There may be a number of causes of this gap; it could be that these organizations are pursuing inappropriate strategies, or it could be that they are in rapid decline and unable to muster sufficient resources. It could even be that they simply lack the process efficiencies that can drive real business change. However, we would conclude that the core reason for organizations failing to execute, and realise benefits from their strategies is the difficulty getting employees to embrace the change with each new initiative.
This is the realm of change management – helping people adopt new behaviours, accept and take ownership of change, instead of resisting it. Successful project implementations rarely come from purely technical project plans that do not take into account these human dynamics of change. The qualitative impacts of poorly managed change can be seen and felt by many and effective change management is known to increase the likelihood of achieving project objectives and return on investment (ROI). The issue is how best to make change management happen in your organization.

Your grandson is so cute! I love your veg-garden, Thai people love to eat daikon/sweet basil very much. And I think this Thai sweet sause is the best...if you buy at a Chinese store/Walmart, big bottle just $2.89...good with tofu/chicken/ribs/fish etc.
Texas soil is bad bad...I have to buy potting soils for planting everything in my garden...with Miracle Grow to fertilize every 2 weeks!
My husband thanks you kindly Tidethep. My culture we had very little sauces, I am just learning how to make different varieties and my husband loves them. He will be very happy to try out your suggestion and we both love Thai Food! Guess what I learned to make this summer…..Kimchi, kimchee or gimchi! My husband loathes the smell. My first Dharma teacher is Korean Zen, a very kind monk, the lay folk used to bring kimchi and make food for the monks and nuns every Sunday and I would eat with them. I thought something died and rotted when I first smelled kimchi.
I love kimchi recipes, I've tried several even though they smell like something died, they taste like heaven. From what I've read fermented food is very good for digestion. I have fibromylagia which my digestion system suffered greatly until I started eating organic whole foods and I think fermented food really helped.
My Grandson looks just like my Father and my Son although my fathers hair turned black as he aged.
We had a hard frost last night but my winter garden greens are frost resistant. Todays harvest!
This summer was my first successful crop of basil, Giant leaf Italian, cinnamon, and lemon. I made pesto and canned it. We will be able to have basil pesto all winter long, like saving a little sunshine in a jar.
My grandson learned to pick beans and peas gently without tearing up the plants. He only tore up 2 bean plants learning this lesson. Such a smart boy. This spring he will come to stay with us and help me with the chicks hatchings and planting the spring garden.
My gamble with the weather finally paid off, 24 hours after my prediction. Most of the dynamic lifter would have made it's way into the soil & the roots should be sucking it up soon. This morning I noticed the first 2 flowers on my zucchini & some of the silver beet was big enough to pick. I gave a leaf to the budgies & a couple of leaves to the chooks. I don't know why but I'm a bit superstitious like that, I always like first pick to go to the animals. I know it's all garbage, but it makes me feel better. Good-luck with whatever you're doing in your yard.

Most of my squash and 1/2 my greens go to our chickens too, I love how you say chooks.

It's not "all garbage" at all if you think about it first and then think about it again when you do it, because it is a valid way of recognising and remembering that we're all in it together - silverbeet, chickens, people and (even ) slugs. "It makes me feel better" is probably a vague idea of something like this thought.
If you don't think about it, you're right - it's empty ritual in just the same way that doing prostrations while thinking abut your laundry list is empty ritual.
There is no garbage existing in nature. All materials fulfil a function. In the Dakota language they have no word for "waste".
Ayu wrote: There is no garbage existing in nature. All materials fulfil a function. In the Dakota language they have no word for "waste".
That's true, but I don't think it is a response to what Shaun wrote. When he said, "it is all garbage," I understood "it" to be his habit of giving first crop to the animals.
Canning pumpkins grown in my garden, half of my harvest goes to my chickens, I cook and mash up the squash for them when the weather gets intensely cold. The pumpkin helps them stay warm during the long nights. Baked the gutted pumpkin with skin in a flat pan (saved the seeds for eating and next years pumpkin patch) with bottom covered in water until tender, cut up and placed in a jar, pressure cooked @11lbs pressure for 30 minutes.
Ooh...what a coincidence..I just baked pumpkin-cake this cold cold morning...and I'll fry catfish-fillets top with hot/sweet sauce..garnish with basil leaves....yummy?? My basils (the only herb-plant that I planted in my garden)...still alive at 41 degrees F.
Today I got home from work at about lunch time & my wife had prepared an omelette. The eggs were from our backyard & so was the silver beet. She also used some capsicum & chilli, that I can't take the credit for. After lunch I spent some time feeding & watering the animals & the never ending task of chipping weeds. In less than a couple of hours I'd experienced the good & the bad of backyard gardening. It made me think of the 8 worldly concerns taught in Buddhism. I also wondered if life would be as enjoyable without them. As we used to say when I drove cabs, "you've got to have the bad shifts, so you know what a good shift's like.
If any moderators are reading this thread, could it please be moved to the backyard gardening thread in the diet, health & fitness section. I've been in touch with a moderator, but with my limited computer skills I'm finding it to be quite difficult.
Some of the bush beans I picked for canning this year. We ate a lot of fresh green beans and what was left over I canned for stews. Most of the vitamins are lost during canning. Canned green beans do retrain their fiber, carbohydrates, and protein. They make a nice filler in stews. What brings me comfort and happiness is I know exactly where these beans came from because I grew them and canned them myself. Not only am I healthier from the workout gardening gives me and eating organic, I feel really good about setting goals and seeing the project though from seed to in my belly!
Many vegetables begin to lose vitamins when harvested. Nearly half the vitamins may be lost within a few days unless the fresh produce is cooled or preserved. Within one to two weeks, even refrigerated produce may lose half of its vitamins. The heating process during canning destroys from 1/3 to ½ of vitamins A and C, thiamin, and riboflavin. Once canned, additional losses of these sensitive vitamins are from 5 to 20 percent each year depending on storage conditions.

Is canning any better than blanching. Blanching is basically picking & preparing your vegetable as though you were going to cook it, but you just 1/2 steam it & then just bag it & freeze it. I can't comment on vitamin loss as it's an area I've never really studied. But as you say, considering that I know where it all came from, I figure that it can't be any worse for you than commercially available frozen vegetables. We've been doing it for years & never got sick from eating it. Also is canning more expensive or more trouble than other methods of storing vegetables, like jarring, drying or blanching.

I read blanching and freezing veggies retains more of the nutritional value. However, where I live my electricity goes out a lot during the winter. I can or dry just about everything. I also have a winter garden that can handle deep freezing weather we get up here in the Oregon Cascades for fresh greens.
Glass jars are an investment. I want to buy those reusable jar lids but I don't have the funds yet. They are kind of spendy (http://www.reusablecanninglids.com). During the winter and most of the summer I don't go shopping, I can eat off what my backyard produces. I buy bulk grains and beans as well, several hundred pounds of both along with sugar, and oils. I found I can save a great deal of money buying bulk from my organic cooperative. I also can a lot of dried bean. I soak the beans over night and pressure cook them @ 15lbs for 45 minutes. That saves me a lot of time cooking, most of my food is already cooked.
Ahh, what a glorious garden!
Gardening has saved my sanity - there's really something to be said for getting your hands in the dirt and being connected to the food you eat.
I'm an avid seed-saver and grow only heirloom (old traditional) varieties of herbs, veggies & flowers. I dream of being able to have a little farm for seed production of old & rare varieties and living the self-sustainable lifestyle.. for now i grow a fair amount of my own produce, make all natural soaps/lip balm in my small rental in the city.
Love the pics of your canning!

NEW YORK -- U.S. stocks retreated yesterday amid a slump in technology and financial issues, just one day after setting records.
Personal computer stocks recoiled from warnings by Silicon Graphics Inc. about future growth, semiconductor issues were hurt by a slide in LSI Logic Corp. and financial shares tumbled after Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan suggested that interest rates might not be cut soon.
Mr. Greenspan said small wage increases that had helped curb inflation may give way to larger, more inflationary settlements.
"You're probably not going to get an easing" in rates, said Steve Mindnich, trader at Jefferies & Co. in Short Hills, N.J. "Look at the bonds. The Federal Reserve is preparing people."
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 7.59, to 4,794.86, as yields on benchmark 30-year Treasury bonds rose to 6.35 percent from 6.31 percent Thursday. For the week, the average gained 1.08 points. Thursday, the Dow closed at a record 4,802.45 International Business Machines Corp., American Express Co. and AT&T; Corp. fell the most yesterday.
Bigger losses were felt elsewhere. The S&P; 500 fell 3.19, to 587.46, after reaching records in each of the past three days. On the Nasdaq stock market, the composite index dropped 7.44, to 1,039.53.
"There's a little concern, or cautiousness, that the market only limped to a record yesterday on poor breadth," said Joseph DeMarco, head trader at HSBC Asset management, a unit of Hongkong & Shanghai Bank. "That's made some people a little less aggressive in bidding up stock," especially in the face of a drop in the Treasury market, he said.
The Russell 2000 index of small company stocks eased 0.6, to 302.82, and the Wilshire 5000 index slipped 31.19, to 5,808.47. The Dow Jones utility average surged 1.58, to 218.82, its highest since February 1994.
Some 13 stocks fell for every nine that rose on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume totaled 396.7 million shares compared with this year's average of 338.9 million.
Computer stocks slid after Silicon Graphics said fiscal first-quarter net income grew to 33 cents a share, higher than last year's earnings of 26 cents but lower than analysts' estimate of 34 cents.
Silicon Graphics also warned that slowing sales in the United States will lead to lower-than-expected growth in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1996. The company's stock fell $1.75, to $32.25.
Among other computer makers, Hewlett-Packard Co. dropped $4, to $88.75, IBM slipped $2.875, to $95.375, Digital Equipment Corp. dropped $3.125, to $51.75, and Sun Microsystems Inc. declined $1.75, to $70.25.
Semiconductor shares reacted to a 10 percent decline in LSI Logic. Investors grew concerned the Milpitas, Calif.-based computer chip company's growth is slowing, even after it posted unexpectedly strong third-quarter profits.
LSI said third-quarter profits surged to 50 cents a share from 36 cents in the year-earlier period. Analysts had forecast earnings of 46 cents.
The stock tumbled $5.50, to $49.50, after Soundview Financial Group lowered earnings estimates, citing chances for increased supplies and lower chip prices.
Texas Instruments Inc. dropped $3.50, to $69.75, Intel Corp. eased 87.5 cents, to $67.125, Applied Materials Inc. fell $2.125, to $47.625, and Micron Technology Inc. sank $3.875, to $69.
Financial stocks were crushed by higher interest rates after Mr. Greenspan's comments.
Merrill Lynch & Co. dropped $2.125, to $57.375, and Morgan Stanley Group Inc. slid $4.125, to $87.875.
Stocks tied to the housing market and credit-card industries also slid. Federal National Mortgage Association fell $3.50, to $103, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. dropped $2.25, to $68.625, and MBNA Corp. lost $1.50, to $37.625.

The crisis talks came after Sri Lanka’s parliament witnessed unprecedented violence as lawmakers threw furniture and chilli powder at each other.
This is the first time that Sirisena, Wickremsinghe and Rajapaksa met face to face since the crisis erupted on October 26.
The JVP or the People’s Liberation Front stayed away from Sunday’s meeting. The party in a letter to Sirisena said that he was the creator of the crisis so he should end it. The party said it had no reason to attend the meeting.
Speaker Karu Jayasuriya, who on Wednesday announced there is no prime minister or government following a no-confidence motion against disputed prime minister Rajapaksa, also boycotted the meeting.
Sirisena and Jayasuriya are at loggerheads ever since Jayasuriya decided to summon parliament on November 14 despite Sirisena’s dissolution of the the assembly to hold fresh elections.
Wickremesinghe’s party meanwhile asked Facebook to safeguard the identity of its supporters on the social media platform, fearing information sharing with what it calls the country’s “illegal” government can lead to a crackdown against the users.

A home is an emotional thing to all of us, therefore choosing a good roof for your home is a choice that needs much consideration because it will ultimately affect the beauty and durability of your home. It would be imprecise to say that majority of Americans do not end up disappointed by the kind of Roofing Contractors In Clarkdale GA they get from bad companies. Therefore, it becomes a subject of profound importance to obtain the entire roof from the right company. A perfect roof, on the other hand, can be very expensive; it becomes tough for most people to afford to pay for all the material and installation at one go.
Roofing companies find financing difficult because they have to buy the materials and pay for the labor the moment they install the roof. This means that the company itself has to dig to its pocket to compensate its suppliers and remunerate its employees. If the Roofing Contractors In Clarkdale GA takes the risk of covering you using financing, it will be left with a negative account and debt that is not certain if it will be recovered.
The main idea here is that roofing companies are just small contractors, they are not credit agencies. This means that it is not their Roofing Contractors In Clarkdale GA to wait long periods of time to get paid for service they have already rendered. If a medium sized roofing company offered to finance to every of its client, it would not be long before it is left with no operating finance and it would soon have to be closed down because of bankruptcy.
