(JTA) — Researchers in Israel said they have succeeded in cultivating commercially desert truffles whose market price reaches $120 per pound — slightly less than the cost of silver and four times that of uranium.
The researchers from the Ramat HaNegev Desert Agriculture Center in Israel's south made a breakthrough in stimulating a symbiosis between the fungus Terfezia leonis, which occurs rarely and unpredictably in nature, and the common desert shrub Helianthemum sessiliflorum, Ynet reported Thursday.
It marks the first time that the truffle, a highly sought-after delicacy across the Middle East and beyond, has been cultivated, according to Ramat Negev. The researchers said farmers will be able to harvest in small areas unprecedented yields.
Both the fungus and its host shrub require little water and no fertilizer, making the cultivation of Terfezia leonis potentially Israel's most cost-effective agricultural crop. Commercial cultivation by Israeli farmers may begin as early as next year.
Bedouins in Israel's Negev region are occasionally able to extract small amounts of the desert truffle with their tracking skills. But the supply is scarce, unreliable and labor-intensive, the report said.
Ofer Guy, the scientiss responsible for the successful experiment, told Ynet that the shrub provides sugars necessary for the subterranean fungus – which in turn provides the plant's roots with crucial minerals and especially phosphorus.
"In nature you'd need vast areas just to obtain the amount of truffles we grew in the experimental field," he said.

The Modern Saints
FEast: Aug. 16th
Patron of: plague, skin disease, dogs, second-hand dealers,
St. Roch (rocco)
Born on what was the edge of France, Roch was the son of the city's governor. It was said that his mother was unable to bear children until she prayed to St. Mary, and when Roch was born, he had a birthmark on his chest in the shape of a red cross.
Not much is known about his life until both his parents had passed away when he was 20 years old, and he decided to leave home, giving away all his possessions and even his title as the new governor. He set out on a pilgrimage for Rome, stopping in Italian towns along the way that were suffering from plague. He was said to have been able to cure many simply by making the sign of the cross on their foreheads - and sometimes, the mark miraculously remained.
When he reached the city of Piacenza, Roch finally contracted the plague, himself. He withdrew into the forest and built a shelter out of tree branches. A spring rose up in place to supply him with fresh water and a dog appeared every so often that would bring him bread and lick his wounds. When the dog's owner decided to follow him into the forest one day, he discovered Roch and soon became Roch's student.
He returned home when he had fully recovered, but was thrown into prison. He was mistakenly assumed to be a spy rather than a pilgrim, and his uncle, to whom he had given the governor's position, did not recognize him. He never revealed the birthmark that would have proven his innocence, and instead suffered in prison for five years until he passed away. After his death, the people of the town recognized the birthmark and he was given a public funeral and greatly mourned.
When the Black Death plague arose in Europe later on, all saints that had suffered plagues of their own became very popular, and a group at the Council of Constance in 1414 sent prayers to him, after which the plague immediately ceased. After this, he became well-known as a patron against disease. His relics were taken to Venice in 1485.
wHAT wOULD HE CARE ABOUT TODAY?
United States HUmane Society
Medecins Sans Frontieres - Italy
as a patron of plagues, protect us from illness, and all that may injure our bodies and minds. Allow us clarity and peace in such situations, and spare us from grief and loss. Grant us a swift and complete recovery, in which we also grow from the pain. Remind us also to embrace the blessing of health when we have it, and to be grateful for times of well-being. Amen.
Art Reflection
The typical period pilgrim's hat and cloak that Roch is always depicted wearing are not all that different from today's styles of hats and long cardigans. He is shown wearing these but with jeans, a pilgrim's shell, a red crown symbolizing the COVID-19 Pandemic, and a walking stick. His dog is shown bringing him the bread that sustained him, and his wound is visible on his leg. The expression on his face was taken from reference images of the over-worked doctors in Italy at the beginning of the Covid-19 Pandemic.

India: student arrested
As part of a nationwide 'crackdown,' several hundreds of people have been arrested or detained in various states by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) for their alleged link to the Popular Front of India (PFI), which was banned on 27 September by the Ministry of Home Affairs.
The Quint spoke to the families of two such people detailed as part of this 'crackdown.' Both their family and friends say they weren't part of the PFI, but of the National Confederation of Human Rights Organisation (NCHRO) and the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) respectively. However, the SDPI, which is the political arm of the PFI, hasn't been banned.
The PFI was founded in 2006, and primarily enjoys popularity and sees the most membership in parts of South India – Kerala and Karnataka being the hubs of PFI's base. But the PFI also has some presence in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh, among other states.
The Home Ministry has said it was "necessary to curb the nefarious activities" of the organisation, declaring the PFI an "unlawful association" along with "its associates or affiliates or fronts including Rehab India Foundation (RIF), Campus Front of India (CFI), All India Imams Council (AIIC), National Confederation of Human Rights Organisation (NCHRO), National Women's Front, Junior Front, Empower India Foundation and Rehab Foundation, Kerala".
The Quint spoke to two such people detailed as part of this 'crackdown' – both their family and friends say they weren't part of the PFI, but of the NCHRO and the SDPI respectively. However, the SDPI, which is the political arm of the PFI, hasn't been banned. DU Student, First Person in Family To Reach College
Twenty-two-year-old Shoaib Ahmad was picked up by the police from his house in Delhi's Shaheen Bagh at around 3 am on 27 September. The family, comprising of Shoaib's parents and his two younger siblings, were fast asleep when 25-30 police personnel came ringing their doorbells. "They took away Shoaib and along with him also took away some of his books, his laptop and phone," a relative who did not want to be named said.
Shoaib wasn't part of the PFI, but used to volunteer with the NCHRO, which has been banned by the Union Home Ministry as one of the organisations "affiliated" with the PFI. Shoaib's friends say he only recently began volunteering with the NCHRO, limiting himself to logistical work.
"He was a college student. So internships and volunteer work are always helpful for college students to get certificates. He would help the NCHRO with organising talks, making posters, communication work, etc." Abuzar Chaudhary, a friend of Shoaib told The Quint.
Shoaib was a final-year student at Delhi University's Zakir Hussain college, studying in the BA programme. He was the first from his extended family to make it to college, his friends said.
From a very humble family, Shoaib's mother is a tailor and stiches clothes using her sewing machine at her home itself, while his father is a property dealer. "Their financial condition hasn't been good for a while now. In fact, just a few weeks before his detention, Shoaib's parents had managed to buy him a laptop. He really needed a laptop for his studies and was managing without one for so long. The laptop now lies in police custody," Abuzar said.
Manishikha, another friend of Shoaib, said he was present in the anti-Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) protests in Shaheen Bagh, which is when she met him for the first time. "Since then, I grew to know him as an ambitious and curious person, who wanted to study a lot and was constantly looking for avenues. He would ask me about master's programmes in various colleges, and was interested in studying international relations, philosophy and more subjects about the world. He began referring to me as 'aapa' and I too would think of him as a younger brother," Manishikha told The Quint.
Manishikha added that he would volunteer with the NCHRO infrequently, since as "a person from a marginalised and economically strained background, he was more focused on excelling in studies."
Shoaib was produced before the executive magistrate of the Delhi district court on the day of his arrest, and has since been in judicial custody, Manishikha said.
The Delhi Police's Special Cell unit along with district police had conducted raids across six districts in the city last week and nabbed 30 people allegedly linked with the PFI. Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora has in a notification declared and notified some addresses in Shaheen Bagh, Abdul Fazal Enclave and Jamia Nagar as being used for the purposes of carrying out "unlawful activities" of the PFI and its associates or affiliates.

On 27 September 2022, Shoaib Ahmad, student who uses to volunteer with the National Confederation of Human Rights Organisation, was arrested by the police over alleged links to a banned political party in Delhi, India.


From North Carolina's Neuse River and Outer Banks to Florida's Indian River Lagoon and passes all across the central Gulf of Mexico, late summer and autumn are the prime times for inshore "cowboys" to hitch up their rides and set off for the annual bull round-up. By bulls, we mean the coppery/bronze variety with spots on their tails, broad shoulders and snorting-in-the-chute attitudes.
Sciaenops ocellatus or red drum grow to very large sizes in terms of both weight and length. North Carolina issues catch citations for fish exceeding 40 inches, and true "bulls" can often approach the 50-pound mark. These Brahmas are spawning stock and are most active in the early morning, late afternoon and overnight hours when they feed aggressively and conduct courtship rituals. On a quiet night, you can actually hear the fish "drumming" or making noise to entice perspective lovers.
The typical arsenal for bull reds is 20-pound class spinning rods loaded with 300 yards of monofilament or braid with four to six pounds of drag. A Bimini twist or Spider Hitch knot doubles the main line. A leader up to six feet of 60- or 80-pound test will help protect against chafing from other lines or fish. Terminal tackle consists of a circle hook sized to match the bait and heavy egg sinkers to hold the bottom.
For bait, chunks of fresh-caught mullet add plenty of scent to the water. Menhaden cut in half is another option, along with live pinfish and spots. For whole dead baitfish, cut the tails off to increase the smell factor.
A normal spread is four to six rods, spaced apart and with different baits to determine the pattern. If the rod tip bounces or moves, pick it up and steadily wind the line. As with all circle hooks, avoid the violent hook set. With steady pressure the hook will rotate, typically embed in the corner of the jaw or roof of the mouth and hold.
A single fish of this size is truly a trophy. But when the bite is on, it's not unusual to catch multiple giants per outing. Just use steady pressure on them, and they'll be boat-side soon enough. Ideally, the whipped fish should remain in the water. A large rubber landing net is an alternative if the hook won't come loose easily, but avoid stressing the fish as possible.
Bull reds can be fooled with artificial lures and flies, too. Big chugger or popping topwater plugs will trigger explosive surface strikes when the water is calm. Large plastic swim baits rigged with oversized jig heads are effective as well. To add extra commotion, tie the plastics on under a popping cork. DOA or Z-Man swim baits in natural patterns like pearl belly and greenbacks are effective. Watch for bait schools. If you find some that are nervous and showering on the surface, there's likely bulls underneath. Fan-cast the area thoroughly before moving on.
Carolina Skiff's Sea Chaser 26 LX is an ideal platform for a bull round-up. The expansive front deck and walkaround access around the console comes in handy during the fight. The boat's overall length (25 feet 11 inches) allow for comfortable fishing in large bays or along the beach, and the Ultra leaning post and forward console seat will accommodate a bigger crew.
This model also features tons of rod storage and most importantly, the live well capacity to handle bait needs. The forward deck well has a 25-gallon capacity with aerator. Another well to the rear lets you separate different types of bait with aeration and water flow. The 26 also comes standard with a storage compartment with a bucket receptacle for the cast net, and the underwater LED lighting will illuminate the action after dark.


Needle is a thin sword wielded by Arya Stark. It was given to her by John Snow, who had it made by Mikken, the blacksmith of Winterfell.
As the sword is quite big, it is meant to be post-processed. We recommend a layer height of 0.1 to 0.2 mm on FDM printers. All parts are aligned to the printing platform for easy manipulation. Most of the parts need minimal or no use of printing supports to save printing time and filament. For reliable printing, we also recommend setting a brim to the thinner parts, because of their height and low thickness. It will ensure, that the parts will not come off the printing platform during the printing process. Printing settings will vary greatly depending on your specific printer.

All-digital 1.2-Gbit/s real-time HDTV VTR
Author(s): Laurence J. Thorpe; T. Yoshinaka
In 1984 the first real-time HDTV video tape recorder was introduced. The HDV-1000 was an analog VTR using one inch metal oxide tape and standard SMPTE open reels. It utilized basic Type-C recording principles although also incorporating a considerably higher FM carrier frequency, twice the deviation, and slightly more preemphasis, - all to achieve a 10 MHz baseband video recording bandwidth capability. Four such component analog recording channels were utilized in parallel to achieve a total recording capability of 40 MHz - made up of 20 MHz for the green video signal (or Luminance Y) and 10 MHz each for the red and blue signals (or R-Y and B-Y components in the case of Y, R-Y, B-Y recording). Almost 150 of these machines supported the early pioneering years of HDTV development - worldwide - over the period 1984 to the late 1980's. The HDTV video signal format to which this VTR was designed was based upon the preliminary 1 125/60/16:9/2: 1 system - having specified system bandwiths of 20 MHz for Luminance Y, and 7.0MHz R-Y, and 5.5 MHz B-Y. The HDV-1000 proved to be a remarkably robust, reliable HD VTR workhorse and it early and firmly established the viability of reliable RD real-time image capture. Nevertheless, it's technical shortcomings were soon exposed by a creative and demanding international program production community. The limitations of two channels of analog audio recording, and about four generations of liD video recording in post-production were inconsistent with the needs of high-end program production. The 45 db signal to noise limitation also imposed a boundary to the quality of the HDTV tape to 35 mm film transfers being made by both Electron Beam and Laser Recording techniques. The HDV-1000 had, however, pushed the state of the art in analog FM recording to the boundary. Head and tape technologies were not expected to advance sufficiently to warrant a new generation in analog recording design. Attention thus turned to digital recording techniques.

In an interview with Laura Ingraham, who was filling in for Tucker Carlson on Fox News, former Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer said Thursday that there is evidence that Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) -- a former chair of the Democratic National Committee -- used Imran Awan for "malevolent activities" and "manipulative things" against Sen. Bernie Sanders during the 2016 Democratic primary race. Awan was arrested this week while trying to fly to his native Pakistan, where he hoped to join his wife. An IT specialist, he had worked for 31 House Democrats including Wasserman Schultz. With his brothers and a friend, Awan earned millions in taxpayer money while providing IT services to Members of Congress. He is now facing charges of bank fraud, but may see further charges involving theft and cyber-crime.
Shaffer spoke about Awan's who worked on Capitol Hill, and said that Awan was paid 3 times the average Congressional IT employee. One of Awan's brothers may have put sensitive information on the Internet 'cloud' and potentially exposed it to "outside sources." Awan and his confreres had access to emails exchanged by Members of the House Intelligence Committee. He was arrested on Monday at Dulles International Airport after wiring hundreds of thousands of dollars to Pakistan.
Former DNC chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz kept Imran Awan on her payroll for months, even as he was being investigated by the Capitol Police for a host of possible crimes. She even tried to hinder that investigation, but our intrepid press has shown little interest in the story. Tony Shaffer is a retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel, he joins us, and he has been following this case.

At the present time many orthopedic surgeons and other physicians who formerly participated in the State services for crippled children are now serving in the armed forces. This has necessitated certain changes in State programs with regard to location and frequency of chnics, hospitals used, and number of physicians and surgeons engaged in providing diag nostic and treatment services. In some instances children in need of care cannot be furnished with the necessary medical, nursing, or physiotherapy services so promptly as formerly. In order to care for those most urgently in need of such services special consideration is given to those children with crippling conditions requiring prompt attention, which, if neglected for any considerable period, would have a detrimental effect upon the welfare of the chi d.
The various war agencies concerned with rationing and priorities of materials have consistently given careful consideration to the special needs of crippled chi dren, particularly as these needs apply to the use of metal for braces, purchase of special shoes, and the rationing of gasoline for_ transporting the children to clinics for treatment. Safeguards have been provided that will permit continuation of the essential services to this group during the present national emergency.


SERVICES PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN ALL MODERN ECONOMIES. INDEED, IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR ANY ECONOMIC ACTIVITY TO TAKE PLACE WITHOUT SERVICES.
AN EFFICIENT SERVICES SECTOR IS CRITICAL TO TRADE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH. ENCOURAGING GREATER TRADE IN SERVICES THROUGH OPEN MARKETS AND NON-DISCRIMINATORY TREATMENT CAN LEAD TO HIGHER EMPLOYMENT LEVELS, HIGHER INCOMES AND HIGHER STANDARDS OF LIVING.
The mission of the Division for the Registration of Companies and Close Corporation in the Ministry of Trade and Industry is to manage, regulate and facilitate the formation of business entities and to encourage investment through an appropriate legal framework and a conducive environment that ensures the flourishing of businesses. In modern-day Namibia, business and public services – such as accounting services, legal services, financial services and health services – are well established and their importance to the country's development cannot be underestimated.
Foreign investors generally conduct business through a Namibian company or as a branch of their home corporation.
Company formation is simple and inexpensive. Shell companies are available from accounting and legal firms.
Close corporations are simpler to administer and are not subject to statutory audit obligations.
Legal, tax and accounting advisers should be hired in the early planning stages of establishing a business entity.
The choice of entity is of extreme importance when setting up a business. In Namibia an entrepreneur can choose from a variety of business forms.
Prior to commencing business it is necessary to obtain the appropriate registration certificate from the local municipal health department. Certain businesses, such as banks, insurers and pharmaceutical companies, may require additional special licences.

How Does Affirmative Action Work in the College Admissions Process?
Affirmative action is a complex issue that can be felt in different areas of American life, especially in the higher education system. While more students are attending college, demographic studies are showing that there is still a disparity between white and minority students. Affirmative action has been a driving force for providing students who normally may not be considered for acceptance at selective schools a chance to attend those schools. But where did affirmative action come from and how does it work? Here's a quick primer on how the process works.
Related resource: The 20 Most Affordable Colleges with High Four-Year Graduation Rates
The United States introduced affirmative action, a term coined by President John F. Kennedy, in the early 1960s. It was used to prohibit discrimination in the workplace. It moved from the workplace to educational settings in the late 1960s, providing minorities and students from underrepresented populations the chance to be considered for placement at some of the country's most prestigious institutions. Since its introduction into the college admissions process, students from all backgrounds have fought for or against affirmative action both in the court system and the mainstream media.
Affirmative action is amorphous in its application, meaning that not all colleges and universities approach the idea of processing applicants the same way. Most schools will endeavor to consider the applicant's test scores, transcripts, extracurricular activities, and the student's personal statement while also looking at the student's background, including race and socioeconomic class. This is a holistic approach to college admissions, one that takes the applicant's life and education into consideration. At its core, affirmative action presents minorities and students from lower income areas the chance to earn a spot at prestigious schools, providing them with an education that will both serve them in the real world and also ensure the school is a diverse and welcoming space to all students.
The Consideration Of Race
The consideration of race is the most debated part of affirmative action. Many critics state that race should not play a factor in who is accepted into a school and that by using race as a factor, schools are letting down students who are more than qualified to take their place within its programs. The truth is more complex; many schools use race as a moderate factor while other schools, which are trying to improve diversity on campus, may utilize it more often. Forbes published an article stating that while race may play a role in affirmative action admissions processes, it can also be used to benefit white students from lower income areas. Therefore, race is considered for all applicants, not just minorities, and has benefitted students from all races.
A Holistic Approach
Affirmative action at schools like Harvard is often discussed as providing a "holistic approach" to its admission process. This means that the school looks at the applicant as a whole: transcripts, test scores, extracurricular activities, race, socioeconomic status, and more. Looking at an applicant's entire life is thought to provide schools with more information on what that student could accomplish in their programs and how they would do after graduation. This means that all students are considered equally, regardless of their race, socioeconomic class, gender, or sexual identity.
The Merit Myth
There has been controversy surrounding affirmative action since it was first enacted in the late 1960s. Many students have accused schools of rejecting them even though they would be a good fit for the school based on test scores and transcripts alone. This is known as the "merit myth," the idea that merit alone should be the basis for admission. It is simply not true; the case of legacy students, meaning students who had parents attend the same college they hope to attend, and rated athletes continue to receive admission that is not based on merit alone, something that has been a tradition at competitive schools for decades. This alone should be enough to dispel the notion of the merit myth, but for those who are rejected, the myth is something they cling to. Now it is becoming clear that merit alone is not enough to guarantee acceptance into a program; students must work harder in order to earn their place in the program of their choosing.
Affirmative action has its place in American higher education, but the extent to which it is useful is up for debate. What is known is that more minorities and students from lower socioeconomic classes have a better chance of attending schools that meet their educational needs, meaning that America is benefitting from more diverse college campuses. Students are encouraged to remember that schools look at the totality of a student's application, not just their race; this alone should give them the determination to follow their educational dreams.

Swelling is a normal occurrence after surgery. To minimize swelling apply an ice bag or a plastic bag filled with ice cubes on your cheek near the area of surgery. Apply the ice for 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off for the first 24 hours.
You should begin taking pain medication as soon as you feel the local anesthetic wearing off. For moderate pain: Ibuprofen bought over the counter comes in 200 mg tablets: 2-3 tablets may be taken four times daily, not to exceed 3200mg daily for an adult.
Oral cleanliness is essential to good healing. Clean your mouth thoroughly after each meal, beginning the day after surgery. Brush your teeth normally if possible and brush gently over the sutures with a soft toothbrush. Rinse with warm salt water (1 teaspoon of salt in a cup of warm water) six times a day. Continue this procedure until healing is complete.

Jahrhundert n. Chr. Die Plattform wurde in der Afrighidenzeit (4. bis 8. Jahrhundert n. Chr.) erweitert, was wiederum zur Folge hatte, dass der Graben verkleinert wurde. In diese Zeit datierten die beiden letzten Phasen. Die Festung war eventuell bis ins 8. Jahrhundert in Benutzung. Es fand sich die Münze eines afrighidischen Herrschers.

Die Festungsanlage bestand aus einem massiven Zentralbau aus Lehmziegeln mit massiven Mauern und acht Räumen, inklusive eines zentralen Raumes mit Kuppel. Darum angeordnet befinden sich diverse Wohn- und Wirtschaftsbauten. Die Außenmauern der Festung sind mit halbrunden Wehrtürmen versehen. Der Haupteingang zur Festung liegt im Süden.

Die Festung wurde 1938 von einer choresmischen Expedition unter der Leitung von Sergei Pawlowitsch Tolstow zum ersten Mal wissenschaftlich untersucht. Grabungen fanden später unter der Leitung von Piljavskij und Elena Nerazik statt, wobei etwa die Hälfte der Anlage freigelegt wurde.

Before and After, Twelve Years Later!
Alright my friends -- this is my favorite post of the year so be warned…there are a ton of photos. Twelve years ago tomorrow we closed on our home and I know I say it every year, but I cannot believe I've had the privilege of living in a home I love this much for so long. We moved a lot when I was young and times got pretty rough. It is truly a dream come true to have this house and to be settled for so long.
Before and after photos are my favorite ever so I just love this kind of post. It makes me giddy. I did the same thing last year (check that post out for different views and to see how these spaces have changed since!) -- I love to see how our house changes over the years. Every year I "finish" a room and slow but sure our house has become exactly what we want and love.
Funny how placing that sofa there and pulling it away from the wall makes the space feel bigger, right?
I finished up the kitchen last year and it is truly a dream space for me. I absolutely love it.
It certainly has brightened up our house! I don't think I could ever go all white -- I love having the contrast of some color with the white trim.
Gosh I LOVED this room all dramatic like this. It made a statement for sure. I think dining rooms can handle some drama.
Check below for a link to the rest of this space. We love it!
The planked walls are so fresh and pretty! I love this room.
I share these because I'm proud of them, but even more so because I think it's important to remind you that it has taken me a loooong time to figure out exactly what I want our home to look like. I've had some hiccups along the way for sure. Over the past few years I feel like I finally feel like I've identified what I love and want for our spaces.
Here's links to posts on all the rooms I included here!
You can find all of our paint colors here. If you have questions about anything in these photos, let me know!
Funny coincidence...we signed the papers for our house on 4/28/2005. It is our fourth house, first one we actually built.
Loved this! Yes, I had a few missteps to our finally finished room (cream colored carpet next to the door to the back yard?). I'd love to pin some of your rooms but can only pin the whole post. Is there some secret I need to know?
I'm in my house just a year now and I look back at what I've done in a year....what a difference! Looking back at yours over 12 years is amazing - you've gone through many, many transformations!! I adore your house, it's so cozy and welcoming - you've done a great job, congrats to you!! ps you have inspired me to learn woodworking....I just ordered my first saw. Wish me luck!
What a fun post! Just like many of us, I LOVE before and after posts and this one was awesome! So great to see all the updates. Your home is beautiful!
My husband and I are getting ready to become homeowners (May 10!) for the first time, and we BOTH come to your blog frequently for inspiration. He appreciates the trim tutorials, and I love it all. I can't wait to see our spaces evolve as yours have!
Wishing you another 12 years of happiness in your gorgeous home!
Love seeing how far its come. The dining room transformation is one of my all time favorites.
You have worked so hard and you deserve the beautiful space you have. Well done and congratulations!
Fun going back and seeing the before pictures! Missed seeing your staircase, laundry room, mud room, etc...you are really talented and creative! Somehow I feel we are never done with our homes. Finish the last project and time to start over!
What a coinkydink?!?! (Word for coincidence if not family.) I had my house re-appraised today after owning it for a decade. This past weekend I was going through photos of before & afters. The bloggers I follow + my construction background gave me the confidence to DIY most of it ... concrete & drywall finishing were contracted out.
I just love every bit of your home! I don't know if it's just the styles that have changed, or your taste, but I want my house to look exactly like it.
so many changes! But everything looks amazing :) great job!
Hi Sarah! I love posts like this!
Just wondering - where did you get the big area rug in your library room? Is it greige with pops of blue? I'm looking for a similar rug for my living room. Thanks!!
Sooooooooooo pretty. In love with your house id.
The transformations are lovely. I love how you own your missteps as just part of the process.
Just wonderful! Particularly love the living room transformation. You are so talented. Wish I had just a pinch of your abilities!
Wonderful evolution of your home. You have done an amazing job. I have been following you for years. You are so creative.
Love this post, your house looks fresh and updated throughout. Can you tell me where your got the living room pouf in white, blue and tan?
You should be very proud of yourself. Your house is beautifully decorated and you did all the work yourself. Now that is a big accomplishment. I loved looking back and seeing all the changes.
AMAZING!!! You are so stinkin' talented!
I have been following you for years and it's so fun to see the changes you have made. Very lovely! Your home looks so peaceful and serene. And you are one of the luckiest persons I've known(?) to have scored all those great dressers. I have yet to find even one. I did find a beauty, serpentine and just the right size, on CL and someone beat me by minutes! Thanks for the tour.
I am completely enamored with this! I love the changes and I strive to basically do as you have done here. What a transformation!
What a difference! Great taste you have (nowadays, haha)I just love your kitchen!
Amazing transformations! Your home is beautifully decorated and I have really enjoyed the journey. A lot of hard work went into those changes, but so worth it! Wonderful job!
I LOVE your beautiful home, and how you own past choices too! It is really stunning. What I'm super curious about it the incredible photography. How do you get those photos with bright light coming in from the window? If you have posted a how-to, I must find that. If not, I'm sure we all appreciate your tips! About ready to sell our home and great pics will help! Thanks.
Oh my goodness- your house looks amazing!! I loved seeing all of the before and after. We have all certainly made choices that we wouldn't make again. :) I think everything looks wonderful; thank you for sharing.
Sarah, though I rarely comment, I've been following your blog almost from the beginning and it is my favorite as yours is a "really, truly DIY blog. I've saved most of your posts to my "favorites," and now, especially with this recap, I will ask my husband to sit down with me to actually "see" what I've been talking about these many years..the total beautifully designed and executed transformation you've been able to accomplish pretty much single-handedly in your home. Over the years, my husband has installed floors and we've painted walls and ceilings, but we've never attempted the kinds of real transformations you've accomplished.
Sarah, you are truly an inspiration and model for what is possible if we just follow your example for your home. Just about everything you've done in your home is what I'd love to see in ours.
We do, indeed, still use our dining room when we entertain, so I must say that I still love your dramatic dark brown dining room. Having said that, we have a library of sorts, so I love your dining room transformation into a library which works better for your family.
Sarah, you are an inspiration, truly...and I love, love, love your innate taste in interior home design. I've also enjoyed your posts featuring your out-of-doors redesigns...just so you know.
That was such a fun post! It is wonderful to see the transformations - and to see what we used to LOVE!
My daughter is a 10th grader and filmed the Senior Prom for her school's TV channel. I was going through some of the video she had and was chuckling to myself about what those kids will look back on someday and think "I loved the short, tight tuxedo pants with slide-on shoes and no socks - what was I thinking?!?" I do that with my big poufy hair from the 90's. It is amazing at how our style and taste change over the years. I need to remember to take more pictures of my house! I had the same plum paint color in a bathroom and would have been so envious of that dark brown dining room.
Thanks for sharing. Your home has always been beautiful!
Thanks for the update. I should probably do an update on my blog too.


She added it would take "15 minutes" to fix illegal immigration if only Congress would sit down with Trump and "just come up with the best solutions so that we don't have to do this".
"With immigrants being less likely to commit crimes than the USA -born population, and with sanctuary jurisdictions being safer and more productive than non-sanctuary jurisdictions, the data damns this proposal as a politically motivated stunt that seeks to play politics with peoples' lives", said George Gascon, district attorney for San Francisco.
The White House defended Trump earlier Sunday, saying the president has a duty to highlight Omar's history of making comments that others find offensive and that he wished no "ill will" upon the first-term lawmaker. "But we have to comply with every law".
He continued: "The Radical Left always seems to have an Open Borders, Open Arms policy-so this should make them very happy!" "If they don't want to serve our Nation by taking care of them, why should other cities & towns?"
These cities, which are designated as safe havens for illegal immigrants, mandate that their law enforcement not cooperate with federal immigration authorities.
On Saturday, he said his administration has "the absolute legal right to have apprehended illegal immigrants transferred to Sanctuary Cities". "They do these watered down push backs that frankly they feel like give them enough cover, but aren't really getting the job done".
Trump "heard the idea, he likes it, so -- well, we're looking to see if there are options that make it possible and doing a full and thorough and extensive review", she said. "Instead of threatening immigrant families and the cities that welcome them, this president should spend a little bit more time trying to learn from us".
Since his first days in office, Trump has attempted to reign in sanctuary cities or states, arguing that they create security threats for the American citizens living there. "If they reverse the decision and send people here, I'd be happy to have them".


Our August featured artist is Sam Luna. Many of you may recognize Sam as a member of the acoustic duo, FEATherWOLF. Sam's artistic ability expands into paintings, which will be displayed in the Great Room throughout the month of August.
" I want to make art that allows the viewer to become a part of the piece. Finding the right moment to stop so that the viewer begins to finish the painting in their mind and allows them to become the artist. I hope to inspire people to create more art."

Apple cider vinegar helps to aid weight loss, clear skin, promotes digestion, regulates blood sugar, reduces sinus infections and sore throats and helps to promote youthful healthy bodies.
If you need apple cider vinegar you can buy it from this page on Amazon.
Great info! I'm a huge fan of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar!
I just started this off and on a few months ago. All do is add 2 tsp of the vinegar and a tablespoon of honey and a cup of boiled water and mix well,add cold water next to fill a 8oz glass and it is really refreshing to your whole body.Taste fine and makes your mouth water up if you have dry mouth or throat. I am very happy and if I drank it everyday like I should I would be skinny. Only part time drinking it I lost 20 lbs. I got mine at Earthfare.
Debi, are you drinking this once per day? Thanks.
where do you find the vinegar?
will just plain whitehouse apple cider vinegar work ???
I'm confused, 1 cup = 8oz., so how much water do you use, you can't add ingredients to 1 cup of boiling water then add cold water to fill an 8oz. glass?
My daughter was very faithful with her vinegar…but please swish your mouth with water…or better..brush your teeth…because this caused major enamel loss..she had to have extensive dental care…and reconstruction…around the gum area…due to acid in the vinegar….so please watch this….
I can't get this kind of vinegar here where I live , I just use the brand I been using all along. Great recipe to be healthy! I even rinse my hair in apple vinegar after I shampoo it!.
