Raining Beets 05 Oct 12

A semi trailer with a full load of sugar beets malfunctioned Thursday morning and beets spilled onto U.S. Highway 212 just west of Olivia.

Two vehicles were damaged by the beets but no one was injured. According to the State Patrol, the incident happened around 8 a.m. when a westbound beet trailer broke open at the side and sugar beets spilled onto the road as two eastbound vehicles were passing by.

According to the State Patrol, a latch came loose on the trailer causing the side door to open and dump some of the beets.

The beets struck two oncoming vehicles, a car driven by 32-year-old Larissa Maurice of Danube, and a car driven by 39-year-old Kristine Mattson of Texas.

They said it was like it was raining beets.

The “downpour” caused minor damage to the vehicles.

A MnDot plow was used to push the beets off the road.

S&T 9/15

Stuff, Things, etc.

I wish people wouldn't add me to their sales groups on Facebook. I don't want LuLaRoe or Younique. I would never be gutsy enough to add someone I barely know to a direct sales group without their permission. And my feelings on Younique are complex...I'm into healing your skin and fixing it, not covering it up.

A suggestion: Can we cut the weekends down to one day? If I could eliminate all of the Sundays between now and ______, time might speed itself along more quickly. Also, I don't need two days. I need Saturdays to run errands and clean and grade papers. Nothing's open on Sunday anyway. I need extra time to go to the post office, not sit around the house. We're wasting productive work time with this "two day weekend" thing.

Now that you know how I really feel (and probably hate me...), now seems like a good time to plug away...

Sign-ups start in a week and a half!

And speaking of fall, I got these boots on DSW's website for a steal. They are comfortable. They are attractive. They are the third pair of combat boots I've tried and the only ones I've loved.

And, fall again...I love the Steelers so much. Plus, I went on an online shopping spree last week (makes me feel better) and got a new Steelers shirt. I can wear it on "Broncos days" at work. need of recommendations...a book and a TV show. Supernatural isn't doing it. I plan to read allll the Show Us Your Books posts this weekend, but if you have a favorite from the last month or so, just drop the title in the comments!

<!-- end InLinkz script —>

  1. I need the two day weekend. I work on Saturday. I work half days Mondays. I need that Sunday off! But, retail work life is never normal.

    Hooray for a swap that I am going to participate in!

  2. It really drives me nuts that FB allows any of my FB to add me to any group without my permission. I've been added to some crazy @ss groups and once I discover it, I have to go in and leave the group when I never wanted to be a part of the group to being with.

    I need my two weekends, otherwise I am not nice to little Johnny and Jane come 7:15am on Monday morning. There are times when I really feel like I could do a three day weekend. LOL!

  3. I'm also over being a part of everyone's group. Its old, and I'm quickly trying to leave said group. Everyone sells something!

  4. What is the pumpkin swap thing? I can't seem to find out what it is on your blog but I'm probably just missing something. haha. We recently really loved Homeland season 4 but I'm thinking that might not be the show for you at the moment...other favourites in the past year (I don't watch much TV tbh) include Once Upon a Time, Happy Endings, House of Cards, White Collar, Sherlock, and Gotham. Alias is on Netflix now too and I loooooved that show. Not sure what you're in the mood for though! One tree hill is also good :)
    Books - if you haven't read anything by Taylor Jenkins Reid yet, I highly recommend One True Loves and After I Do. I think you would like them!

  5. I can't get behind a one day weekend. I'd prefer a three day. LOL

  6. TV show - Daredevil, Narcos, Marco Polo, Burn Notice, The Shield, Sons of Anarchy, Oz,
    It's always sunny in Philadelphia, Dexter, Battlestar Galactica, Suits, Ballers...oh so many!!

    Books -

  7. I understand what you're saying about the 1 day weekend--but as an introvert I restore my energy by sitting quietly alone. Saturday is my day to get shit done. Sunday is my quiet day. I write a chapter, go for a run, then spend the rest of the day in bed or on the couch with a tv show.

  8. Sorry, I think you're in the minority with this one day weekend business. I need a day to get stuff done and a day to laze around the house!

    I'm liking Veronica Mars lately, and The Americans is next on my list. If you haven't already done Friday Night Lights, then what are you waiting for as it's awesome. I'm currently listening to The Ex as an audiobook (not chick lit, more of a legal drama) and so far, so good.

  9. Yes about people adding me to sales groups!!! It gets really annoying after a while.

  10. Turn off those notifications for the groups people add you to :)

  11. Can we make one-day weekends optional? I need two days in a row away from my job...

    I'm thankful nobody has added me to any FB groups without my permission. I don't have time for that.

    THIS is GOING to be the year I buy a Seahawks hoodie. I've been a fan basically my entire life and have never owned anything but a jersey (and probably a keychain at some point) and I have no idea what happened to that thing. I've been saying every single year that I want to buy a hoodie and then I remember they're like $80.

  12. Not sure what you're into, but for books I really liked Labor Day by Joyce Maynard and Missing Pieces by Heather Kudenkauf. TV wise I've been watching Married at First Sight, which is basically a train wreck but I can't stop. And Naked and Afraid XXL. As for the FB sales groups, I always either turn off notifications or unsubscribe/leave group.

  13. I'll pretend I didn't read that weekend thing, since I'm a huge proponent of longer weekends.

    Also, I just got a new Steeler shirt, too! My parents gave me an Old Navy gift card for my birthday, and I also had super cash. So o got a great haul for about $20! Woo hoo!

  14. I also hate when people add me to those groups. Invite me, maybe, and let me decide if I want to be there. Ugh.

    I can't get on board with the weekend thing. Sorry. :)

  15. I'm happy to see the pumpkin swap back! And no, I need every second of my weekend and preferably a bit more if it's up for negotiation. I seem to spend most Saturdays travelling about for one reason or another so I need my Sundays for jobs! Unless I'm travelling on the Sunday as well in which case a weekend extension would be very well received.

  16. Girl... I am so with you on the sales groups! It's one thing if you know the person... but when some random tries to do it - NO THANK YOU! It just feels spammy!

  17. i cannot get behind your one day weekend plan, but i'd be all about like alternating weekend days so that the post office had to work on my weekend, but they could be closed when i had to work. or something like that lol. and chick fil a, i want them to be open every day. can't handle this closed on sunday stuff.
    i don't know about tv shows, sorry :( i haven't finished a tv series in like 4 years. i'm behind on all of them.

Comments make my day!

Enjoy a great #WasteLess Christmas!
Watch your waste this Christmas 15 December 2016

Christmas comes but once a year...

Unfortunately, it brings with it a quite staggering amount of waste. This year, we are hoping to encourage everyone to have a great Christmas but do the right thing with the stuff that is left when the party is over.

Every year we dump or burn enough Christmas trees to stretch from London to the North Pole and back. Make sure you dispose of your tree the right way - click here to find out how you can do just that.

Don't forget that those mince pie cases can be recycled, along with all the tin foil, drinks cans, bottles and food tins - give them a rinse and put them in your recycling!

When it comes to food waste, Christmas is in a league of its own. We throw away more than 17 million Brussels sprouts, five million Christmas puddings and the equivalent of two million turkeys. Buy what you need, not what you traditionally get (and always throw out). Keep the food waste bin - if you have one - for things you can't eat and turn leftovers into curries and soups and even Christmas pudding ice cream. For more ideas visit www.lovefoodhatewaste.com

Don't forget to recycle all those Christmas cards and either save the wrapping paper to reuse next year or recycle it - it may help cut the amount of wrapping paper that's thrown away each year, currently enough to stretch to the Moon!

Finally, when you're wondering what to do with the fat from your turkey, don't simply pour it down the sink. We pour enough of it down our sinks every Christmas to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool and it contributes to the 'fatbergs' that block our sewers causing damage and increasing the risk of flooding. Either put the fat in your food waste bin, if this is an option, or pour it into a bottle and put the bottle in the bin.

You can enjoy all the trimmings that go with Christmas and, with a small amount of effort, make sure that you do the right thing with the waste.

To find out what you can do with your Christmas tree come 12th night, and all the other waste that you find yourself staring at when the twinkly lights go out and the relatives have headed home click here.

Once you put in your postcode it will take you to your council's website where you can find all the information you'll need to make it a #WasteLess Christmas.

Pence Aiming To Reassure Allies At Start Of Trump Presidency

Washington (AP)

Making his debut on the world stage, Vice President Mike Pence will seek to reassure skeptical allies in Europe about U.S. foreign policy under President Donald Trump, who has made his "America First" mantra a centerpiece of his new administration.

Pence's trip to Germany and Belgium, his first overseas trip as vice president, is aimed at reassuring European and Middle Eastern partners about the U.S. commitment to trans-Atlantic institutions like NATO and the European Union, White House advisers said ahead of the trip. The visit comes amid concerns in Europe about Russian aggression, and lingering questions about Trump's relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin and whether the new president may promote isolationist tendencies.

The dismissal of Trump's national security adviser, retired Gen. Michael Flynn, has also put Pence and his stature within the administration under new scrutiny. Flynn was forced to resign Monday following reports he misled Pence about contacts with a Russian diplomat, which the vice president learned about through media accounts.

Pence was arriving in Germany on Friday to attend the Munich Security Conference, where he will deliver a speech Saturday and then meet with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Pence is also scheduled to sit down with the leaders of the Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko — countries facing the threat of Russian aggression — along with Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim.

"These are pretty blunt-spoken people and they are very nervous. Pence is looking like an adult," said James Jeffrey, a U.S. ambassador to Iraq during the Obama administration and a distinguished fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. "The question is will Trump listen to him?"

Pence was also expected to meet with the leaders of Iraq and Afghanistan, where the U.S. is embroiled in two separate wars. In the earliest days of his presidency, Trump declared his intention to fight and defeat the Islamic State group. But he also remarked that the U.S. may get a second chance to take Iraqi oil as compensation for its efforts in the war-torn country, a notion rebuffed by Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, who will be meeting with Pence.

Trump's immigration and refugee ban has also ruffled feathers with a number of Muslim-majority countries affected by the order currently tied up in court, including Iraq — a close ally in the fight against IS.

The American allies will be seeking clues from Pence as to how the Trump administration plans to deal with Russia in the aftermath of Flynn's departure, U.S. inquiries into Russia's involvement in the presidential election and Trump's past praise for Putin.

European countries along Russia's border were rattled about deeper U.S.-Russian ties after Trump suggested sanctions imposed after Russia's annexation of Crimea could be eased in exchange for a nuclear weapons deal and the president referred to NATO as "obsolete" in an interview before his inauguration.

NATO, or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, is a military alliance of European and North American democracies created after World War II to strengthen international cooperation as a counter-balance to the rise of the Soviet Union. In 2014, the 28-member alliance created a rapid-reaction force to protect the most vulnerable NATO members against a confrontation with Russia.

But Trump cast doubt as a candidate about whether the U.S. might fulfill its NATO obligations if he won the White House, saying in a July interview that he would decide whether to protect the Baltic republics against Russian aggression based on whether those countries "have fulfilled their obligations to us."

Pence will travel to Brussels, Belgium, on Sunday for meetings related to NATO and the European Union. His Monday itinerary includes face-to-face meetings with EU Council President Donald Tusk, EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.

As part of his message, Pence is expected to press allies in Europe to raise their defense budgets to NATO's target of 2 percent of GDP. Germany has been wary of the costs and pointed to its expenditures from supporting refugees and investing in international development.

As Indiana's governor, Pence led a number of foreign trade missions, and he traveled to Iraq and Afghanistan as a member of Congress. But he is just beginning his relationships with foreign leaders and aides said the trip was also aimed at establishing personal relationships with U.S. partners.

"There's considerable concern, but because they don't know (Pence) they're willing to give him a chance," said Julianne Smith, a former deputy national security adviser to Vice President Joe Biden. "This is the opportunity for the administration to reassure very skittish allies across the European continent and beyond."

Elderly woman and grandson injured in blaze

An elderly woman and her grandson have been taken to hospital with burns after they tried to put out a fire at a house in Tonbridge.

It is thought the blaze was started in the lounge of the property on Barden Road by several tea lights which had been lit for celebrations marking the Nepalese New Year.

The grandmother discovered the blaze and burned her hands as she tried to bring it under control.

Her teenage son suffered burns to his back when tried to put out the fire with a bowl of water, causing the flames to flare up.

They were both taken to hospital although it's not thought the burns are serious.

Watch Manager Derek Patey said: "This incident highlights several important safety messages, the first being about the risks of trying to tackle a fire yourself, as this can result in injury.

"The best advice on discovering a fire in your home is to get out, stay out and call the fire service out.

"Secondly, I would advise all residents to ensure they have working smoke alarms fitted on each floor of their home and to test them weekly to ensure they will provide early warning should a fire break out."

He added: "In addition, I would advise people to take care when using candles, especially during times of celebration when it is easy to get distracted, and to never leave them unattended."

Quotes of the day: Neil Armstrong

Published Tuesday, August 04, 2015 @ 9:23 PM EDT
Aug 04 2015

Neil Alden Armstrong (August 5, 1930 – August 25, 2012) was an American astronaut and the first person to walk on the Moon. He was also an aerospace engineer, naval aviator, test pilot, and university professor. (Click here for full Wikipedia article)

That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.*

Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.

I am, and ever will be, a white-socks, pocket-protector, nerdy engineer, born under the second law of thermodynamics, steeped in steam tables, in love with free-body diagrams, transformed by Laplace and propelled by compressible flow.

I fully expected that, by the end of the century, we would have achieved substantially more than we actually did.

I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work.

I think we're going to the moon because it's in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It's by the nature of his deep inner soul... we're required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.

Pilots take no special joy in walking: pilots like flying. Pilots generally take pride in a good landing, not in getting out of the vehicle.

Space has not changed but technology has, in many cases, improved dramatically. A good example is digital technology where today's cell phones are far more powerful than the computers on the Apollo Command Module and Lunar Module that we used to navigate to the moon and operate all the spacecraft control systems.

Tang is a farce. We did not use it on the Apollo missions.

Without the skill and experience that actual spacecraft operation provides, the USA is far too likely to be on a long downhill slide to mediocrity. America must decide if it wishes to remain a leader in space. If it does, we should institute a program which will give us the very best chance of achieving that goal.

Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to understand.

Research is creating new knowledge.

The important achievement of Apollo was demonstrating that humanity is not forever chained to this planet and our visions go rather further than that and our opportunities are unlimited.

I wasn't chosen to be first. I was just chosen to command that flight. Circumstance put me in that particular role. That wasn't planned by anyone.

Your baby's progress - Week 28

Your baby's progress - Week 28

Download our BUMPWATCH Pregnancy Tracker. Everything there is to know week by week. FREE

Your little womb-tenant will be making her presence well and truly obvious by now, and things are starting to get cramped enough in your belly to become annoying (for you, that is!). Baby is still trying to somersault and wriggle around her watery little home, but she’s getting ready to turn into position for her journey down the birth canal in 12 weeks or so time. In the coming weeks, you may feel a pressure ‘down there’ as your baby drops into the locked-and-loaded pelvis position, where she will launch from on her birthday. Not all babies drop into position at this time, but it could start happening soon.

Baby’s lungs are already capable of breathing air as her vascular system can now handle oxygen and carbon exchange. Her brain stem is also developed enough to regulate rhythmic breathing as well as her basal body temperature! In fact, her brain has gone from having just a few cells at conception to being an organ with100 billion neurons capable of firing off 100 trillion connections.

Some babies might jolt you into feeling tiny rhythmic movements which you can put down to a case of baby hiccups. While it may feel odd, these hiccups don't bother baby, so just relax and enjoy feeling her presence in your belly – there’s only another 12 weeks of pregnancy to go.

Just like adults, all babies are different and develop at varying rates in the womb. This information gives a general idea of your baby's development and progress.

This Mom’s Side By Side Picture Of Breast Milk Has Gone Viral

March 19, 2017
Keep Reading ↓

Breastfeeding Mom, Mallory Smothers has been pumping a lot lately! Apparently, when you breastfeed, the milk tends to look the same every time you express.

Last month, Smothers baby seemed to be feeling a bit ill. When she expressed some extra milk, the consistency and color seemed to look very different. It looks a bit “off” however there is a very good reason for it.

Smother wrote:

“So yall.. This is just cuckoo awesome– I read an article from a medical journal not too long ago about how Mom’s milk changes to tailor baby’s needs in more ways than just caloric intake.. So this doctor discusses that when a baby nurses, it creates a vacuum in which the infant’s saliva sneaks into the mother’s nipple. There, it is believed that mammary gland receptors interpret the “baby spit backwash” for bacteria and viruses and, if they detect something amiss (i.e., the baby is sick or fighting off an infection), Mom’s body will actually change the milk’s immunological composition, tailoring it to the baby’s particular pathogens by producing customized antibodies. (Science backs this up. A 2013 Clinical and Translational Immunology study found that when a baby is ill, the numbers of leukocytes in its mother’s breast milk spike.) So I filed that away in the back of my mind until I was packing frozen milk into the big deep freeze today.

I pumped the milk on the left Thursday night before we laid down for bed. I nurse Baby every 2 hours or so overnight and don’t pump until we get up for the day. I noticed in the wee hours of Friday morning, 3 AM or so– she was congested, irritable, and sneezing ALOT. Probably a cold, right?

When we got up Friday morning, I pumped, just as we always do. What I pumped is on the right side of the photo.

I didn’t notice a difference until today, but look at how much more the milk I produced Friday resembles colostrum (The super milk full of antibodies and leukocytes you make during the first few days after birth) and this comes after nursing the baby with a cold all night long..

Pretty awesome huh?! The human body never ceases to amaze me.”

Nipples are super sentive. Baby spit backwash can be identified by your boobs! It sounds disgusting and amazing at the same time but truth – it’s backed up by science.

Despite the bags of thick yellow liquid, the post has been shared over 70,000 times.

The human body is truly amazing!.

Flying Dutchmen

Flying Dutchmen

It is an impressive transition when you realise that The Flying Dutchmen started with one man, 40 years ago, conducting some cannabis research for personal satisfaction.

Eddie, the founder of The Flying Dutchmen may have had humble beginnings but that all changed by 1984, when he opened a wholesale genetics business, cultivating new hybrids for the market with fellow breeder Skunkman.

Together, Eddie and Skunkman introduced the very first Skunk#1 (available to buy at Seedsman) to the market along with a host of other new strains.

In order to find unique parental stock, tens of thousands of each strain were grown out in greenhouses, the best were selected and preserved. These best plants were inbred until the strain was considered stable or pure breeding. Crosses between two stable varieties are known as F1 hybrids.

Best Cities, States & Places

Retiree Tax Heaven (and Hell)

Where you live can have a huge impact on your tax bill in ways that may surprise you.

Editor's Note: Our 2009 retirement tax story can be read here.

Some states are more tax-friendly for retirees than others. And how much you pay in taxes -- particularly if you are living on a fixed income -- can have a big impact on how much you have left over to spend.

If you're thinking about relocating permanently or buying a second home to live in for part of the year (and where you may be taxed on part of your income), don't make a move until you've scrutinized the whole financial picture in your potential new home.

Retiree Tax Map 2009

Retiring in Volatile Times

Secret Ways to Boost Your Social Security

Retirement Timeline

Your federal taxes will be the same no matter where you live, but you may be surprised at how much your state and local tax burden can vary from one location to another. "You can save thousands of dollars a year by moving from a tax hell to a tax haven," says Mary Lu Abbott, editor of Where to Retire magazine.

Don't assume that a state with no income tax qualifies as a tax haven. High sales and property taxes can more than offset the absence of an income tax, says Abbott. (Seven states -- including Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington and Wyoming -- have no state income tax. New Hampshire and Tennessee tax only dividend and interest income that exceeds certain limits.)

In addition, the tax bite can vary greatly within a single state. For example, a retired couple with an annual income of $90,000 and a home worth $525,000 would pay about $13,000 in total state taxes if they lived in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. -- but only $9,000 if they lived across the state in Siesta Key. The contrast is due mainly to differences in property taxes, says Abbott. By comparison, if the same couple lived on Hilton Head Island, they would pay less than $6,600 in total taxes because although South Carolina has an income tax, it has relatively low property taxes.

Abbott drew her examples from her company's sister publication, America's Best Low-Tax Retirement Towns ($18.95, Vacation Publications). The book rates the total tax burden for more than 200 cities, broken down by different income levels and home values -- a good starting point if you're trying to determine the financial implications of moving or staying put.

But there's no substitute for calculating the taxes you would actually pay in a potential new home, says Paul Erickson, a professor of taxation at Baylor University, in Waco, Tex. "There are too many differences in tax rates, brackets, exclusions and deductions," says Erickson. (You can download state income-tax forms from or prepare a sample state-tax form with software such as TurboTax.)

Most people choose a retirement destination based on a combination of factors, including climate, access to quality health care and the general cost of living. "Obviously, a decision should not be based on taxes alone," says Erickson. "But if other factors are relatively equal, a substantial difference in tax burden may dictate the best retirement location."

All 50 states and the district of Columbia determine their own tax treatment of retirement income. Only three states -- Illinois, Mississippi and Pennsylvania -- exempt virtually all retirement income (including public and private pension benefits, 401(k) and other retirement-plan distributions, and IRA withdrawals) from state income taxes. Seven states -- Alabama, Hawaii, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan and New York -- FULLY exempt government and military pensions from state income taxes. Those same seven states treat private pensions differently, ranging from no exemption in Massachusetts to a tax exemption up to certain dollar limits in Michigan and New York. Alabama and Hawaii exempt income from traditional pensions funded by employers but tax some or all of retirement income from employee-funded plans. Seven other states -- Delaware, Georgia, Minnesota, New Mexico, Utah, Virginia and West Virginia -- provide a partial exemption for retirement income, regardless of the source.

Five states are particularly tough on retirees. Not only do they fully tax most pensions and other retirement income, but most of them also have fairly high top tax brackets, says Tom Wetzel, president of the Retirement Living Information Center. Those states, with their top tax brackets for 2008, are California (9.3%), Connecticut (5%), Nebraska (6.8%), Rhode Island (9.9%) and Vermont (9.5%). For a free state-by-state tax guide, including exemptions for seniors and a rundown on how various types of retirement income are taxed, go to

Retiring in Volatile Times

Secret Ways to Boost Your Social Security

Retirement Timeline

Social Security Benefits

Most states are moving away from taxing Social Security benefits. In addition to the nine states that do not have a broad-based individual income tax, 27 states and the District of Columbia don't tax Social Security. Wisconsin was the latest to join those ranks in 2008.

The remaining 14 states -- Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont and West Virginia -- tax Social Security benefits to some extent.

Iowa will gradually phase out its Social Security tax by 2014, starting in 2008. Missouri will increase the amount of Social Security benefits that may be deducted from taxable state income, rising from 35% in 2008 to 100% in 2012 and beyond. Kansas residents can now exclude Social Security income from their taxes if their adjusted gross income is less than $75,000, up from $50,000 in 2007.

There's no guarantee that this trend of exempting Social Security benefits from taxes will continue, says Kathleen Thies, state-tax analyst for CCH, a major provider of tax information. "But many states seem to be heading in that direction as their populations age and tax treatment of Social Security income becomes a bigger priority for voters."

Sales Taxes

If you're considering a move to another state, don't forget to take into account sales taxes that can nick your wallet every time you open it. Some states exempt food and medicine; others tax every dime you spend. Five states -- Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon -- have no state sales taxes. At the other extreme, five states -- Indiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Tennessee -- each have a state sales tax of 7%, the highest in the nation. Last year, South Carolina raised its statewide sales-tax rate from 5% to 6%. In 2008, Maryland went from 5% to 6%, and Indiana from 6% to 7%.

Eight states impose a sales tax only at the state level: Connecticut, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan and Rhode Island. But the retail-tax pain doesn't always stop at the state level. In many states, cities and other local governments can slap their own sales tax on top of the state levy, and they're doing so in record numbers. In 2007, 485 U.S. cities either increased their sales-tax rate or initiated a new sales tax.

That was the largest annual expansion in the past four years, according to the annual sales-tax-rate study by Vertex, of Berwyn, Pa. "It is evident from the slew of cities raising sales tax rates last year that local governments see tax revenue as a viable part of the solution in addressing revenue shortfall," says Vertex's John Minassian.

Property Taxes

Property taxes are a major factor, especially for individuals on a fixed income. Tax rates vary significantly from state to state and municipality to municipality. Don't look only at existing property-tax rates, says Thies; ask how property taxes have changed over the years. "If you're moving into an up-and-coming area versus one that is more mature, or if you are moving into an area that is gentrifying, you may find your property taxes increasing at a higher-than-anticipated rate."

It's particularly difficult to compare real estate taxes because local jurisdictions follow different assessment and reporting procedures. For example, real estate taxes in Florida are based on 100% of market value, while homes in South Carolina are assessed at 4% of market value. And some jurisdictions with relatively low real estate taxes are located in areas that have above-average real estate values.

Based on data from a 2006 Census Bureau survey and Tax Foundation calculations, the five states with the lowest median real estate taxes (from lowest to highest) are Louisiana, Alabama, West Virginia, Mississippi and Arkansas. The states with the highest median real estate taxes (from highest to lowest) are New Jersey, New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York and Massachusetts.

Dougie plays a par-fect round at the age of 73

Dougie Scott

Dougie Scott

Have your say

Life-long golfer Dougie Scott has pitched in with a stunning level par round at his home course - beating his age by five shots.

Dougie (73) achieved what many golfers only dream of on his home course at Cawder Golf Club recently.

The par 68 round, consisting of two birdies, two bogies and 14 pars, was Dougie’s best round for nearly a decade on the Keir Course.

The amazing performance from the nine-handicapper brought back memories of his days of playing off scratch - and his win in the 1956 Lanarkshire Schoolboys competition - where he beat former Scotland football manager Craig Brown in the final.

A long-standing Cawder member of 57 years, it was an achievement which club professional Gordon Stewart thought deserved recognition and he presented Dougie with a montage which now hangs proudly in his home.

Martin McSherry, who played alongside Dougie in the league match, said: “It was a truly remarkable score and deserved to take the cash on the day’’.

Dougie said it was “a round I won’t forget” and insisted to curious members that every putt was holed.

He said: “Listen, the guys I play with don’t even consider a six-inch putt a gimme!”

Services for plane crash victims Steve Davis, Wesley Caves Monday

TULSA - Friends and loved ones remembered two Oklahomans Monday who were killed in a plane crash more than a week ago.

Separate services took place this afternoon for 60-year-old former University of Oklahoma football star Steve Davis and 58-year-old Tulsa businessman and pilot Wesley Caves.

 April 19, 2016
Colombia resumes anti-coca spray dropped over cancer fears.

 Colombia will resume using weed killer to destroy illegal coca crops less than a year after suspending its use due to cancer concerns, the government said Monday.

Defense Minister Luis Carlos Villegas said that instead of dumping glyphosate from American-piloted crop dusters, as Colombia did for two decades, the herbicide will now be applied manually by eradication crews on the ground.

"We'll do it in a way that doesn't contaminate, which is the same way it's applied in any normal agricultural project," Villegas told La FM radio, adding that he hoped final approval to initiate the work would be completed this week.

President Juan Manuel Santos last year banned use of glyphosate following a World Health Organization decision to classify it as a carcinogen. The ban was heralded by leftists and members of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia who have long compared the program to the United States' use of Agent Orange in Vietnam.

But conservative critics warned that without glyphosate Colombia would soon be awash in coca.

After six straight years of declining or steady production, the amount of land under coca cultivation in Colombia jumped 39 percent in 2014 and 42 percent more last year to 159,000 hectares (392,000 acres), according to the U.S. government.

Villegas didn't say why the government was switching gears or under what circumstances the weed killer would be applied. But he said a surge in coca production would have a ripple effect on the entire cocaine supply chain, both in Colombia and abroad.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer, a French-based research arm of WHO, reclassified the herbicide as a carcinogen last year, citing evidence that the herbicide produces cancer in lab animals and more limited findings that it causes non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in humans.

Monsanto and other manufacturers of glyphosate-based products strongly rejected the ruling. They cited a 2012 finding by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that the herbicide is safe.

Putting aside that question, many drug experts have long questioned the cost and effectiveness of glyphosate as coca growers moved to national parks and other areas that are off-limits to its use. Applying the herbicide manually is also expensive since heavily armed police patrols must escort eradicators in dangerous areas dotted with land mines and dominated by criminal gangs.

A better eradication strategy, the experts insist, is the one already in place and which the government has been promising to scale up. In that approach, work crews pull up coca bushes by the roots, thus ensuring plants can't grow back as happens after exposure to glyphosate.

The decision on glyphosate use comes ahead of a United Nations conference this week in New York to debate global strategies in the drug war. Colombia, the largest supplier of cocaine to the U.S., planned to use the meeting to debut its new strategy emphasizing drugs as a public health concerns and not just a problem for law enforcement.

ETX teen’s quick-thinking first saved the lives of others, and n - - Tyler, Longview, Jacksonville |ETX News

ETX teen’s quick-thinking first saved the lives of others, and now his own

A few weeks ago Blayke Holsome's quick-thinking saved the lives of others and now it's saved his own life.

"I woke up coughing and there's just enough light from the street lights to see that my room was packed with smoke," Blayke says.

Blayke quickly realized his house was on fire and crawled out of his bedroom window. He was the only person home at the time.

"He had been here maybe an hour and a half and then we got the call," says Rachel Skidmore, Blayke's stepmom. She and Blayke's dad, Martin Holsome, were at the tattoo parlor where Martin works.

"Of all the people it could happen to and it happened here and you just wonder why? It's crazy, you don't know what to think about it," Blayke says.

The Holsome family lost everything. Rachel Skidmore, Martin Holsome, Blayke, and his two younger sisters all lived in the home, which was built by Martin's grandparents back in 1965.

34 years of memories for Martin are now ashes, but he is once again proud of his son.

"It seems like this young man is being put through the fire, literally, and he seems to prevail in all ways."

"I was just getting back into routine. After the bus scenario, I was kind of uneasy about everything, but just getting back into routine, and then this happened," Blayke says.

Blayke is glad his family is alright and says he knows God has a plan for them, "He doesn't give you more than he knows your faith can take care of."

There's also another lesson Blayke is taking away from this experience, "You can't take anything for granted, you've got to be thankful for what you have, and we're just going to move on step by step."

The family is staying in a travel trailer loaned to them by family friends. They say they are already on their way to making new memories.

Rusk fire officials say the fire started just before 2 o'clock in the morning on Saturday. The fire is still under investigation. Officials say they aren't sure what started the blaze.

If you would like to make a donation to the Holsome family, an account has been set up for them at the Cherokee County Credit Union.

You can also drop off any items you would like to donate at Malice Ink Tattoo & Piercing off of West Loop 343 in Rusk, where Martin Holsome works.

From the Edge of the World: Foula Wool

During my search for great British yarn to knit with this year I have had some wonderful recommendations.

Imagine my surprise and delight when I was recommended a wool which comes from a very local source.

If you are a fan of Shetland wool *from* Shetland you are no doubt aware of Jamieson & Smith and Jamiesons of Shetland (Often confused as the same company, which they are not) and you might also have heard of Shetland Organics CIC.
As a local and a knitter I felt I should have kicked myself for not knowing about Foula Wool.

For anyone not familiar with the island of Foula, it is home to a population of around 30 people and has a breathtaking landscape. The island lies off the west coast of Shetland and is accessible only by sea or air.

The island is maybe best known for being the setting of Michael Powell’s film The Edge of the World (It is astonishing enough that a tiny, 5 sq mile island off the west coast of Shetland should be chosen as a filming location but the fact that it was made 76 years ago is a bit of a marvel to me. See it, if you can!) and although I have never yet been, it has always held a bit of mysticism for me! Probably because I usually see her lovely sharp peaks slicing through the shrouded mist, or glistening in hazy sea sunshine!

I was thrilled to hear of a yarn company on Foula and I quickly found the website and ordered up a few yarn cakes to play around with. Seven lovely, natural, Shetland sheepy shades, springy, soft and flecked with the natural variations in colour, the wool comes in DK weights from 25g – 100g.

Immediately, the thing which struck me about the website was their fresh outlook on traditional Shetland wool. Not only is the site bright and unfussy to navigate, there is a lot of information about the traditions of Shetland colour knitting and a really interesting background into the Foula sheep and the characteristics of the wool.

I really wanted to find out more about the company and how the sheep from the island differ from other Shetland sheep – Magnus and Justyna were very kind in obliging.

What was the driving force in starting the business?

The idea to start the business came from a concern for the sustainability of keeping Foula sheep out on Foula. Over the years the islanders on Foula have managed to preserve a quite unique Shetland sheep gene pool and we want to make sure we are doing our bit to keep this going.

If we allow the island population of sheep to drop below a certain level then it is inevitable that a portion of that genetic resource will be lost. We are hoping that if the Foula Wool yarn business is successful it will help to encourage people in keeping the Foula sheep going.

Tell us about the Foula Sheep, what makes them different?

The Foula sheep are an un-modernised strain of the Shetland sheep breed that have been raised on Britain’s most isolated inhabited island, without any pressure from cross breeding or flock book standards. This has produced an animal that retains all of its natural survival instincts and is endowed with an abundant variety of colours and markings.

A flock of Foula sheep is about as far removed as it is possible to get from the classic image of docile white sheep grazing peacefully on a flat green field. I like to think of them as Viking sheep, a bit windswept and interesting.

Does the fleece come from the whole community or specific crofts?

At the moment we buy fleeces from a number of the crofts on Foula, but we do hope to be able to offer everyone on the island who keeps sheep an outlet for their fleeces that will be better able to reflect the value of their own efforts in keeping and raising Foula sheep.

Do you choose/sort the fleeces yourselves?

Yes, we do all of that ourselves here on Foula. One thing my father taught me was never send a poor quality fleece out to the wool broker – one bad fleece will drag down the price of the whole batch. Thankfully, this means he passed on a lot of knowledge about how to pick out the good fleeces. It comes down to how the fleece behaves when you start to interact with it. The more fleeces you handle then the easier it gets to spot the differences in quality.

Are there any drawbacks to running a business from such a remote location?

I suppose you could say that the difficulty in posting the orders out might be a drawback. The island can get cut off with no ferry or plane for days at a time when bad weather restricts these services. However, in a funny kind of way I think this might actually add to the whole appeal of the Foula Wool experience. Our customers have all seemed to be very understanding so far anyway.

Do you plan to add different weights of yarn along with the DK?

Yes, I think this is something that we will be trying to do, we have not made a decision yet about whether to try a lighter or heavier yarn next. We would love to get any feedback from people about what they would like from us.

Finally, describe your wool in 5 words

Soft, sturdy, plenty of character!

Thanks so much to Magnus and Justyna for “visting” KnitBritish. I really admire their ethos – it is brilliant that they are striving to preserve the native flocks and have a great knowledge about wool. As a result of maintaining a unique strain of the breed, they are bringing us a unique yarn.

I have been working on a little project, which is currently blocking, and I really found the Foula yarn much different in feel and character from other Shetland yarn. It is plump and stout ply and much softer as you may think. Shetland yarn has a great stitch definition and that is so evident in the Foula yarn.

I really like that they have chosen to produce a DK – it is not a very usual weight in Shetland wool (and I mean Shetland wool *from* Shetland, which traditionally tends towards jumper weight or lace) but it is certainly a popular one with knitters.

Foula Wool really seem to have their fingers on the pulse when it comes to we discerning knitters – a great philosophy and aims for the local crofting community; a fantastic product; a great website featuring the wool shop AND a smorgasbord of information from land to sheep to wool to knitted fabric!

It isn’t just me that is raving about them either- Tom of Holland has been tweeting and blogging with some delicious Fair isle swatches in this yarn and about a future cardigan project.

I will blog soon about my make, which heavily features wool from Foula…

In the meantime, head on over to their website and have a look at their range – from cakes to hanks, in meterage which will suit small-project knitters to the more adventurous projects! A thoroughly pleasing yarn to work with and see knitted up and a truly local wool!

  1. Oh, this looks lovely! I’ve never been to Foula but it’s always held something of an appeal to me too – there’s something about (almost)inaccessible islands that pulls me in…

    The yarn looks gorgeous too. Huzzah for local producers! Thanks for an interesting post.

  3. Lynn says

    More Shetland! There can never be enough! I love spinning and knitting with it and have tried it carded and combed. Foula looks beautiful, as do the sheep. Love the colour swatches, it shows the lovely speckles. Looks wonderful!

    thanks for your info Iam so grateful to have you tell me where and how it looks so I can knit fair isle projects with this yarn my question what ply or thickness can i get for hats mittens and scarves?? k

    • D Louise says

      If you go to the Foula wool website (link in Louise’s website above) you can click on the “patterns and kits” section. Here you can find links to patterns for this yarn, available for download on ravelry.

  6. Have only just found KnitBritish and am working my way through the blogs. Found this one about Magnus’s great Foula yarn and thought you should know of another ‘Shetland’ yarn, – handspun yarns by Shetland Handspun.

  7. Enid Thompson says

    Wonderful to see Foula wool from Foula sheep – my only visit to Foula in 1992 – I went for the experience of getting there by ferry and stayed at the B & B, where wet woollen socks dried on the Rayburn overnight. Little did I know then that my closer experience with wool would come in the years ahead, through my daughter taking up a link in the processing of wool through her weaving business. Thanks to Laura, of Laura’s Loom, for keeping my memories of Foula and that time I spent on Shetland in touch with British Wool.

Vaginal Misoprostol for Cervical Ripening Prior to Endometrial Biopsy

Phase 3
35 Years
Not Enrolling
Menorrhagia, Endometrial Biopsy, Cervical Ripening

Thank you

Trial Information

Vaginal Misoprostol for Cervical Ripening Prior to Endometrial Biopsy

Endometrial biopsy is a common gynecological office procedure performed to assist in the
pathological diagnosis of abnormal vaginal bleeding. The procedure can be painful and it may
be difficult to obtain an endometrial sample with a hard and closed cervix. Giving
Misoprostol before the procedure may soften the cervix sufficiently to allow an easier and
more successful test. This medication has been tested before hysteroscopy and in some
patients it has been shown to be beneficial.

104 patients need to be recruited for this study. Participants will be divided according to
pre-menopausal and post-menopausal status. Each of these groups will then be divided into a
treatment arm (with Misoprostol) and a placebo arm. Participants will place a vaginal
suppository containing either Misoprostol 400 ug or a placebo 12h or more before their
appointment for the endometrial biopsy.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients with abnormal uterine bleeding

- Age over 35 years

Exclusion Criteria:

- Pregnancy

- Allergy to or contraindication to prostaglandin use

- Active genital tract infections

- Bleeding disorders

Type of Study:

Study Design:

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Evaluating the ease of an endometrial biopsy by the need to use a tenaculum or a cervical dilator to achieve passage of a biopsy pipelle

Outcome Time Frame:

1 year

Safety Issue:

Principal Investigator

Roger Pierson, PhD

Investigator Role:

Student Arrested

By  |

When police searched the Damonte High School junior, they say they found a controlled substance the student identified as methamphetimine.
Chief Mike Mieras says shortly after finding the drug, the police asked to search the student's car.
"With the consent from him and using our canine, the search of the vehicle in the parking lot as you observed a search was conducted and there were items in pattern with meth making.
Police say they found jugs filled with liquid in the car along with other materials, so they say, at that point, it was standard procedure to call the hazmat team to the area and keep other students from that particular area in the parking lot.
However, after searching, they confirmed there were no chemicals in the car, although what was in the jugs is still being investigated.
"We did find some drug paraphernalia, a small amount, and at this time that's it."
At that point, police say they cleared the scene and finally let students get to their cars in the parking lot.
Denise Hausauer, the principal, says preventing today's scare and just keeping drugs from campus should start at home.
"I think the number one deterrent to drugs is having a very tight family relationship and having those conversations every night about how was your day, what did you do, where are you going, who are you with?"
She says there are always confidential resources available to both parents and students at the school, if there are any questions about drug use.
"They have a wonderful resource here with our counseling service. They can call at anytime and say help me through this orhelp me with my child through this."
She says by the time the police get involved, the conversation with your child about drugs can be a lot more difficult.

Three Killed in Separate Wrecks South of Reno

By  |

Three people were killed in two separate accidents on U.S. 395 south of Reno that occurred in the same area within 12 hours of each other.

Two people died in a pre-dawn crash Tuesday and two others were injured when a green Saturn traveling north hit a guard rail and careened into the southbound lanes around 4:30 a.m., the Nevada Highway Patrol said.

The accident occurred at the north end of Pleasant Valley, a scenic stretch on the main route between Reno and Carson City.

Monday afternoon, a 25-year-old Sparks man was killed and a 58-year-old Carson City man was seriously injured in a two-vehicle crash in the same vicinity, the patrol said.

Trooper Chuck Allen said the Sparks man was heading south around 4:10 p.m. when his white Saturn crossed into northbound lanes, striking a van driven by Lance Morrison.

Morrison was flown to Washoe Medical Center with broken bones and possible internal injuries, the patrol said.

Names of the other victims were not immediately released.

The wrecks tied up traffic in both directions for hours.

McQuaid Calls On Armstrong To Tell All To UCI

By  |

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia (AP) - Cycling federation president Pat McQuaid is waiting for a visit from Lance Armstrong.

McQuaid says Armstrong "should jump on his private plane" and travel to UCI headquarters in Switzerland to provide details on his doping, apologize to the sport and offer to help clean up cycling.

McQuaid says Armstrong should also meet with the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and World Anti-Doping Agency to come clean on how he cheated to win the Tour de France seven times.

McQuaid says "if he has information that is valuable to the sport he should come forward."
