“What the fuck are you doing back here?  You aren’t even working tonight.”  One of the other managers at Bowlero, the new bowling alley and venue, says to me.
“I’m playin’ tonight.”  We all wish we had known the Stools were doin’ a live album recording down at OLL tonight before we booked it though.  Rae said Chuck told her before I picked her up that they don’t play till midnight.  So the goal is to rush the sets so we can get there in time for their set.
“That explains the war paint on the eyes.”  Chip, the mechanic that once got fired as a carny, says as he spits dip into a coffee cup.  “Ya know ya got some jeans with those holes though Mike?”  Damn.  That’s pretty clever.
My mom’s side of the family is down at lane one.  And my dad’s side is hangin’ in the lounge.  Even my uncle from New Mexico is in town for the holidays.  Jordan is setting up the kit.  Sound checkin’ the violin.  Drew walks into the storage room that doubles as a green room for gigs.  Me and Greg the bartender are hittin’ a vaporizer before I get on stage.  We play first.  “You see how Drew walked in here man?  He walked up like he owns this bitch!”
And the scene really does own this bitch.  I’m the bar manager at twenty one.  Drew just started training to bartend.  Dom works the front desk here and there.  Everyone else askin’ if we can pull some strings to get them hired or booked.  Just waitin’ on Sugar Tradition.  Gotta make sure they don’t get carded.  The kids are still in high school.  And we’re eighteen up.  Like the owners would really care though.  They got history too.  One of ‘em owning the Garden Bowl.  The other is one of the top lawyers in Oakland County.  Used to own the Falcon Club in Hamtramck in the nineties.  Actually even was Johnny’s lawyer to get Outer Limits their liquor license.
We open with “Haunted House.”  I’m fuckin’ baked.  And already forgettin’ the lyrics.  That shot of jezy Greg fed me probably didn’t help.  Nobody is here yet besides my family.  A few members of the Hand.  And some Royal Oakies waitin’ on lanes that don’t understand what the fuck is happening.  We’re botchin’ even our classics.  At least the Oakies are gettin’ a real weird show.
Yelp into a drone cover of “Real Cool Time” as Jordan saws away at his violin behind me.  Antonio rollin’ across the stage in front of me.  Glad they got in alright.
Fuck it.  We got a show to get to tonight.  “This is gonna be our last one.”  A piece of glitter falls into the corner of my eye.  “It’s about when it’s five am.  You’re blacked out.  Shirtless.  Pissin’ on the side of a 7-11.  Smokin’ a spliff.  Shotgunnin’ a tall boi.  If you could all raise your drinks.”  Rip through “Miller High Life” before boltin’ for a cig while Sugar Tradition sets up.
“Dude!”  Jordan says to me as we load some gear into the car.  “I think that was the worst set we ever played.”
Dee comes up behind us.  “What are you talkin’ about?  That’s the best part about Just Guys Being Dudes.  There’s no bad sets.  Every set is it’s own experience.  I really dug it.  The owner was behind me and Rae vibin’ too.”
Take a drag.  “Thanks Dee.  That means a lot to me.”
Walk back inside.  Didn’t even realize how many people had showed up.  Sean’s dad, my old high school film teacher, is here.  Still doesn’t know he showed my dick at the student film show at the end of the year.  Even fuckin’ Ian Ruhala showed his bitch ass.  There’s no way that was coincidental.  Not when his girlfriend’s sister is performing with Zilched at the Stools show.  Joey’s gonna lose his shit when he gets here from the wedding.
“That was sick Michael!”  My coworker Reagan says to me.  “Wanna celebrate by doin’ a shot of Jager with me?  You don’t even gotta give me a drink ticket.”  I’m about to be trashed tonight.  What am I talkin’ about?  I already am.
“Why not?  I’m gonna need seven shots of jezy too though.”
“Wakin’ up I got a nothin’ to do!”  Sugar T kicks into one of their many rippers.
Cy, my GM, walks over to me.  “These guys are really good.”  I can barely make out her words over Kevin’s spastic style of jazz drumming.  “They’re like a psychedelic Mudhoney.”
“Yeah.  They’re also only seventeen too.  Don’t tell the managers though I booked some minors.”
She laughs.  “Nobody should be that good at that young of an age.  Do they have a CD?”
“Nah.  We put out their debut album on the cassette label I’m helping run though.”
“What the fuck are you kids doing making cassettes again?”
“Cause they’re fuckin’ sick!  You wanna hear this fuzz on something just as fuzzy.  We don’t wanna clean this noise up!”
Walk back to center stage.  Jake is in the corner with Evan.  Owen layin’ on the floor in front of the couch.  Crossed the border for this night.  On the couch next to Rae is Joey Molloy goin’ hard to Sugar Tradition’s set.  Gotta love Joey.  Nobody goes as hard at a show as good ol’ Joey Molloy.  Bleached tufts of hair whippin’ through the air the same way their brain whips back and forth in the skull.  Everyone takes the Polish, purple nectar.  Jeżynówka.  A Hamtramck staple.  A little piece of home all the way out here.
Joey walks in, still in his suit, and helps Drew wheel three cabs into the crammed lounge as I meet Antonio at the merch table.  They spent over a mill on this remodel.  And the Hand is about to shatter all the windows here when they hit their first note.  This will be the first and last time they let a stoner metal band in here.  TJ stoned as fuck on the floor testin’ out the Juno.  Sean, equally as baked, clicks open the briefcase synth he made.
“Yoo Antonio.  Whenever you guys are ready I’ll take you to the office so the manager can cut you a check.  You just gotta fill out some tax forms.”
“Shit…  This is like a legit gig then?”
We weave through the overfilled lounge.  Drunks and stoners attempt to file towards the stage.  BO and fuzz forcin’ the yuppies to wait for their lanes elsewhere.  Tonight, this bitch is ours.
Paperclips and loose change vibrate their way off the desk in the office as the Hand strikes their first drone.  “Wait…  Kev,”  Antonio spins in the desk chair.  “What’s my social security number?”
“How the fuck should I know?”
“You guys don’t know your social security numbers?  How?”
“Dude.  We’re in high school.  We’ve never had to use ‘em before.”
“Honestly,” my coworker cuts in.  “We don’t really need the W-9.  If you take it with you and bring it back in a couple days it’s probably fine.  But I really don’t give a shit if you do.”
Head back to the bar.  All the freaks headbang in unison to Joey’s screams before Drew rips into a solo.  Greg hands over two shots before I even flag him down.  “I knew Drew was gonna shred because he never talks about his band.  The quiet ones always shred.  Good job putting this together Mike.  Not a huge drinking crowd.  But I’ll take a chill night.  Gettin’ stoned to some chuggin’ bands whenever it comes.”
Or at least I think that’s what he said.  I can’t hear over the riff.  Hail the fuckin’ riff!  Wrappin’ it just before midnight.  Nobody says goodbye to each other before we all dip.  It’s every man for himself.  Drag racin’ down I-75 to get to OLL.  Somewhere in the night Caveman Woodman is yellin’ about the Stools.  Tellin’ folks to fuck off if they think rock n’ roll is dead.
Walk into Outer Limits greeted by the familiar unbearable humidity of a crowd of familiar faces.  Not a single face you don’t recognize.  Greeted with a free Stroh’s and shot of Hornito’s courtesy of Johnny.  Kid Infinity on the stoop of the stage.  Documenting the entire night on camera.  208.  The Long Stairs.  The rest of the Waterheads.  Everyone from the Bowlero show there too.  Sweat gluing bodies together as flesh meets flesh.  “This one’s about a spooky dream Will had!”  KQ shouts into the mic as Chuck uses his already soaked shirt to wipe sweat from his forehead.  As Will’s screeching guitar bends, cuing “Black Fly Stew.”  Two step tune off their latest seven inch from Third Man Records.  Jack White may be a prick.  But he sure puts out some good ass music.
This time I’m not gonna concuss myself on Joey Molloy’s eye socket.  They speed and slop their way through their discography.  Dig into some tracks Will claims are older than some of us.  Kirk recording every second through the soundboard to be put out on Chuck’s cassette label Painter’s Tapes.  “How does two more sound?”  KQ asks after finishing up a version of “Q-Nails” that’s half the length of the studio version.  But still has all the original notes. Bodies make their way off the concrete ground to their feet.  Stomachs cramp from downin’ Stroh’s.  Lungs attempt to catch their breath.  Jake yells back to ‘em “Eat shit Mike Duggan!”  We don’t need no curfew.  Unplug us and we’ll scream louder.
Mikey of the Waterheads discusses Sigmund Freud on the patio while we all pass joints to each other.  Never give those lungs a break.  Kyle of 208 passes out Remove Records t-shirts.  Tells us none of us need to pay for ‘em.  But we all force money into his hands.  “This is what the scene is about man.”  My words come out half coherent.
“Exactly!  That’s why I’m so glad me and Shelby came here from Florida.  This is what music should be about!  Community.  Doing it for each other.  Fuckin’ being there!  Cause without each other, none of what’s goin’ on is possible.  We’re like one big, happy, chaotic family!”
Jake punches my shoulder at the bar.  Radiating the energy of the Bananas in Pajamas.  A loose and excitable toddler ready to play.  We each get a shot of jezy.  “You here anything yet about HMF Nips?”
“Nah.  I saw they ‘leaked’ some of the lineup.  But it was all like Hala.  Legume.  Who Boy.  The indie bands ya know.”
“See.  And that’s what’s fucked man!  They don’t fuckin’ get it like we do.  We’re out here every fuckin’ night playin’ these joints.  We’re all at every show for each other.  They make one appearance a month.  Half the time not even in Hamtramck.  They don’t support each other.  They’re in it for the clout!  And fuckin’ Who Boy gets picked before any of us?!  That’s fucked up man.”
“It is dude.  But don’t worry so much about it.  I’m sure it’ll all pan out for us.  Cause we get it.  And they don’t.  You wanna come over to my place after?  Make some pancakes or some shit?”
“Oh heeeellll yeah!  Pancakes at Belmont.  I’ll rally the troops.  We gettin’ trashed tonight!”
As if we aren’t already.  Rip through a fifty pack of whip-its in twenty minutes.  Sittin’ around eatin’ pancakes at three in the morning.  Listenin’ to the 13th Floor Elevators as Joey tries persuadin’ everyone into watchin’ Pirates of the Caribbean.  “Dead Man’s Aaaaasssss…” his whipped voice whispers to every single one of us individually.
Jake does his first popper as if he’s huffed it before.  Panicking in the barstool in my living room.  “I’m sweaty.  My head hurts.  And my face is hot, man.  My face is hot!”  Before locking himself in the bathroom with a sealed fifth of tequila.  We continue to chainsmoke in the house I rent.  No mention of not smokin’ in my lease.  Dunkin’ chocolate chip pancakes in a bowl of syrup.  He re-emerges from the bathroom.  Quarter of the bottle now inside him.  Or possibly in my toilet.  “Rae.  You gotta finish this.  I can’t do it.”
Owen spits up on Giovanna while tryin’ to rush to the bathroom.  Attempts to wipe the bile off her knee before returning to the cool tile floor around the toilet to sleep for the night.  Jake arguing with me and Rae about ordering him an Uber home.  “You’d fuckin’ love it if I crashed on your futon Nips.  You’d fuckin’ love ordering me an Uber home wouldn’t you Rae?”
“Jake dude.  I don’t know what you want from me man.  Your car is at Evan’s anyways.”
“I just wanna shit on my toilet!”
So eventually he consents.  Tells Rae he’ll Venmo me the ten bucks she spent on him cause he’s “Venmoed Michael Nipples before.”  Even though I’ve never had one.  Yells back to us with the passenger door open “what’s its name?”  As he struggles to crawl into the whip.
And as Rae and I go to sleep.  My phone buzzes with three texts from the drunk Toehead.  “Uh oh…”
“Help…”
“We listenin’ to Dough Boyz!”
Fuckin’ idiot.  Pinhead.  That’s what we all are though.  Or at least what we pretend to be.

Which gardening tools are essential for gardening?
Do you have a favorite garden tool? Something that you keep within arm’s reach every time you go into the garden? What do you use to make digging, pruning, growing or harvesting better for the back or more soothing for the soul? The “can’t-live-without-it” tool will vary from gardener to gardener, region to region and season to season.
Here’s our top 10 list, based on interviews with gardeners in the Southeast who range in experience from serious home gardener to nursery owner — and everything in between.
Tips To Starting Your Own Home Compost Project
It’s just the start of a discussion. Tells us in the comments section if we’ve overlooked one of your favorites – or how you use the items in our list differently than we’ve described.
In the meantime, in no particular order the tools that made our list:
1. Scissors. Karen Converse, a master gardener in DeKalb County, Ga., says plain household scissors, nothing fancy, are her first choice of garden tools. She just sticks them in a pocket and uses them to deadhead flowers, snip herbs, harvest small vegetables such as peppers, open a bag of potting soil or a seed packet or cut string. She still remembers the day a professional nurseryman saw her using them in her community garden plot and remarked that any real gardener always carries a pair of scissors. Robert Wyatt, a retired professor of botany at the University of Georgia, uses a pair of heavy-duty garden scissors with plastic-coated handles to harvest vegetables.
2. Weeders. Manufacturers give them different names, but one that is at the top of several lists goes by the common name of “dandelion digger.” That’s appropriate because these little tools are perfect for prying up weeds with taproots (like dandelions!) and crabgrass. They work well because they have a long, slender business-end that looks like a cross between a notched screw driver and a two-tine fork and are made to penetrate easily into the soil and remove weed roots from deep in the ground. The fork points are narrow and sharp enough to surgically coax out wood sorrel, spurge and annual bluegrass that like to hide in ground covers.
Tips For Growing Cherry Tomatoes In Pots
3. A soil knife. The Hori-Hori is a hands-on favorite of several gardeners we talked with. This is a Japanese tool with a stainless steel concave blade with a sharp edge on one side and a serrated edge on the other. It can be used for cutting through roots, transplanting, dividing perennials, slicing through sod, weeding, removing bonsai plants from pots and many more garden tasks. Van Malone, an avid gardener in North Atlanta, recalls forgetting it was in his car when he went on a business assignment to a federal nuclear facility in South Carolina. Because it has a seven-inch blade and the maximum blade length allowed at the facility was six inches, guards at the entrance to the plant told him that he would have to dispose of the tool. He complied by driving back down the road, hiding the tool in the woods off the property and retrieving it on the way home. (Now that’s a favorite tool!)
Vegetable Container Gardening For Beginners: Top Things To Consider
4. Pruning shears. Andy Sessions of Sunlight Gardens Nursery in Andersonville, Tenn., loves her Saboten Model 1210 from Japan for one simple reason: the blades are sharp. How sharp? At the local farmers co-op, where she buys her pruners, they are called sheep toe trimmers. She also likes them because of their small size and light weight. She uses them to prune woody perennials and finds them so effective that she gives them as Christmas gifts to gardening friends. Other brands that drew praise were Felco and Corona.
5. Water hoses and water wands. What could be more important as much of the country suffers through record-breaking heat and drought? Amanda Campbell, manager of display gardens at the Atlanta Botanical Garden, says these are a staple. Her favorite brands are Gilmour hoses and Dramm wands with a shut-off valve. The shut off is the little brass piece that lets you turn the water on and off without constantly going back and forth to the spigot.
Tips To Growing Tomatoes From Seeds At Home
6. A shovel. But not just any shovel. Wyatt, the retired UGA professor, likes the Sharpshooter. It is a small, compact shovel with a long, narrow blade that is curved and digs deep holes. He says he finds it a lot more efficient than a long-handled, broad-bladed traditional shovel for digging in hard clay soil where he may hit occasional rocks. The Sharpshooter blade can also be sharpened. Rene Freie in Peachtree City, Ga., likes the Kombi shovel, which looks as much like a Samurai weapon as a digging tool. Its jagged edges make it efficient for cutting through roots and compacted soil. Campbell also likes to use a snow shovel for spreading mulch, scooping debris and putting out topdressing. Just when you think you’d thought of everything! As an alternative to a shovel, Shelby Singleton of Carolina Native Nursery in Burnsville, N.C., likes to use a mattock. She says they are great for digging out small stumps or digging in clay. They are available in a small, hand-held size and a large shovel size. Singleton likes them because she says they are more effective than a shovel and don’t require as much strength.
7. Rakes. As with shovels, not just any rake will do. Different rakes serve different purposes. Campbell particularly likes a shrub rake because it will fit into tight and small spaces better than a big fan rake. She likes to use fan rakes to rake off leaves, mulch, and tidy up when collecting the last debris. She also uses hard rakes to move leaves and mulch, but likes to flip it over and use it to move soil and compost, fine-tune grading in annual beds and smooth out soil. After putting soil in a planting hole, she says the hard rake is a great tool to smooth out the soil and blend it in with the rest of the bed.
8. Saws. Wyatt likes a fixed, pull-to-cut saw with a slightly curved blade to prune woody plants. He uses a Corona RS 7385, for example, to cut cleanly and quickly through fairly large limbs. It can also be used to cut down small weedy trees. Others prefer a bow saw for pruning and shaping trees or clearing out undergrowth. Still others prefer a folding saw for its portability. The type of saw depends on the need. Anyone see a pattern here? Of course, you can always keep a pair of loppers handy. But, with pruning shears and a sturdy saw in your gardening tool kit, you likely won’t need it.
9. Loop hoe. Shawn Bard, another master gardener in DeKalb County, Ga., loves this modified hoe for edging and weeding. By using a back and forth motion, she says the blade is perfect for slipping beneath the top layer of soil and scraping the roots out of the dirt. Because the weeds come up very easily and the corners on the loop hoe make excellent edgers, she says it’s a great tool to tidy up beds. The other thing it does very well is cultivate the top layer of soil, which makes it perfect for mixing fertilizers or compost into the top layer without disturbing the soil structure beneath. This is especially handy if you want to add fertilizer or compost to a bed that is already planted or if you want to remove weeds or overgrowth in a bed that’s already planted.
10. A hat. Alan Armitage, a professor of horticulture at the University of Georgia, told the 2011 Cullowhee Native Plant Conference at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, N.C., that he makes any student who comes to an outdoor class without a hat write an essay on skin cancer. That’s worth remembering each time you head into the garden.
The almost-made-it list
There were many other worthy suggestions that didn’t make our top 10 list. Some of these include: • A Tip Bag by Bosmere (for debris) • A kneeling pad • Gloves • A corn husk broom • A rolling cart to carry large shrubs or trees to a planting destination. • And this one, offered with a smile and a chuckle: a golf bag and cart with wheels and a handle – to carry shovels, rakes and other tools into the garden.
In the end, the list differences aren’t important, Campbell points out. What’s important, she says, is to always buy quality products. Quality tools, she emphasizes, make all the difference in the world in enjoying working in the garden.

Only a small portion of the Coosa River flows freely.  Six Alabama Power Company dams impound the waters of the Coosa River before it meets the Tallapoosa River to form the Alabama River: Weiss Lake, Neely Henry Lake, Logan Martin Lake, Lay Lake, Mitchell Lake and Lake Jordan. The watershed of the Coosa River occupies five different physiographic regions. The headwaters of the Coosa River are formed in the Blue Ridge Mountains and Cumberland Plateau. A third of the basin is in the Valley and Ridge, and another third is in the Piedmont. A small portion of the lower Coosa River flows in the Coastal Plain before meeting the Tallapoosa River to form the Alabama River. The high diversity of the geology is matched by the high diversity of endemic aquatic animals: fishes, mussels, snails and crayfishes. Like what I’ve said earlier, this river is truly magnificent.

Woodbury Lions Club hosting American Red Cross blood drives
Tumblr media
vimeo
Blood Drives in Cannon County for over 60 years.
It has been said that the Lions Club drives are the best in the Tennessee Valley Region Blood Services area, which includes all of Tennessee, parts of Kentucky, and Alabama.
The extra effort put forth by the Lions Club has little to do with it. The Woodbury Lions Club has a committee of members that work together to help insure that everything runs smoothly, along with community volunteers who like to help out.
Some of the volunteers have more experience working with blood drives that the actual Red Cross staff who go out daily working with blood drives within the area.
Committee chairmen’s Patsy and Carl Hirlston and Bobby Bogard with committee members Ken and Artie Jean McIntyre, Lois Larimer, Clyde Thomas, Nolan Northcutt, Robert Jennings, Charlie Brown, Clyde and Kitty Bush, Chris Brushaber, Danny Miller, Cliff Swoape, Andy Jacobs, Doug Combs, and Gina Mitchell, all work together along with community volunteers of Bessie Miller, Orval and Esther Gray, Juanita Burks, Cathey Parker, Betty Harder, Shirley Borren, Jane Jennings, Grace Young, Nile Young, Della Young, Robert Young, Kay Campbell, Carol Davenport, Bobbie Henline, Jim Henline, Betty Paschal, Ann Todd, Mary Sue Vinson, and Mary Nelle Hillis too create a professional staff that assist members of the American Red Cross staff.
The Lions Club assigns a task of greeting donors and signing them in, handing out water and assigning donors with a number.
Copies of the Cannon Courier are provided for donors to read before or after their donation.
Red Cross provides snacks and the Woodbury Lions Club has additional snacks such as: a one-of-a-kind trail mix, peanut butter and crackers, baloney and crackers, and cheese and crackers.
A staff works in the canteen area who assist the donors after they have donated by getting them a drink of juice, water, soda, or coffee and then sitting with them and talking. They also watch the donor to see if the donors face color changes or if their arm starts bleeding from where the donor had given blood.
Woodbury Club also keeps records of each donation and awards donors with pins and Certificates when completing gallon donations. Along with taking pictures of donors receiving awards and being pinned with a gallon donation pin, plus having members of the Lions Club calling and reminding donors of upcoming blood drives also adds a little bit more to why Cannon County Blood Drives are better and produces more regular donors than other areas which has a larger population.
Woodbury Lions Club host six blood drives a year, always the third Thursday in January, March, May, July, September, and November. Each blood drive is noon until six pm except May’s drive, which runs from 9 am until 6 pm. May’s blood drive is a donor appreciation drive, and most of the businesses in Cannon County donate door prizes.
In the last five to six years, each donor was able to win three of four items because of the generosity of the businesses and their support of the Lions Club and wanting to reward the true everyday heroes of Cannon County, those who give of themselves to help save the lives of others. In most cases, they are saving the lives of people who they do not know.
On May 20th, 2010 the following businesses provided door prizes for the heroes of Cannon County: A Touch of Home Flower’s & Gifts, Arts Center of Cannon County, Auto Zone, Birdsong Adhesives, Boyd’s Garage, Briar Rose Flowers and Gifts, Bromley/Jennings Automotive, Cannon County Chiropractic, Cannon Market, Captain D’s, CareAll, Cell Plus, Coco Tan & Spa, Chilangoes Mexican Restaurant, Curves, Cutting Edge Hair Salon, D J’s Pizza and Steakhouse, Family Dentistry Deason & Bucher, Farm Bureau Insurance, First National Bank, Flower Occasions, Gina’s Boutique, Hardee’s, Hayes Bros Auto Care, Hibdon’s Body Shop, Higgins Car Wash, J P’s Fine Swine Bar-B-Que, Jennings Jewelers, Joe’s Place, Legendary Cuts, Lightwriters Photography, Lions Pizza Den, The Millennium Hair Salon, Moonlite Drive-In, NAPA, The Old Feed Store, One Stop Market, Parsley’s Market & Deli, Paul Reed’s Furniture, Paul’s Auto Service, Piggly Wiggly, Potter’s Ace Hardware, Quick Shop Market, Reed’s Building Supply, Regions Bank, Roger Hindman Body Shop, Scavenger Hunt Flea Market, Scavenger Hunt Trading Post, The Scoreboard, Shirt Shack, Shotgun County Pawn & Gun, Smitty Tire Shop, Stewart’s Printing, Stone Gait Tack and Feed, Subway, West End Tobacco Store, Woodbury Auto Express, Woodbury Insurance Agency, and Woodbury Lawn & Garden. Every donor and volunteer received a promotional ink pen from DTC, a pillbox from Middle Tennessee Electric Membership Cooperation, Chap Stick from FirstBank, a value meal card from Sonic, and a 3 pound bag of stone ground corn meal from The Readyville Mill.
The Red Cross also provided promotional items and the Woodbury Lions Club provided $10 gift certificates and a grand prize of $100 gift card.
It is very hard to find another community that has so many businesses that support a civic club as much as the ones in Cannon County.
Most all the businesses give support to the Woodbury Lions Club for sponsorship of the Lions Club Horse Show, White Cane donations, and door prizes for the donor appreciation Blood Drive. Without support from the local businesses, the Woodbury Lions Club would not be able to do as much as it does within the community, state, country, and world. Local businesses are one of the leading reasons why Cannon County Blood Drives are so much better that anywhere else in the state.
Another reason and probably the number one reason the blood drives are the best anywhere is the volume of regular donors in Cannon County. In any community only a certain per cent are eligible to donate and of that per cent only about 3 to 5 percent actually donates, but the donors in Cannon County has a much higher percent.
This is not due to the Lions Club and its part, nor the businesses and its part, but it is the individual donor and the way of life in Cannon County, the way most have been raised to want to help others in need in any way they can.
The mentality of the average person in Cannon County is to serve in any way they can. This mentality is one of the reasons Woodbury Lions Club is one of the largest clubs in the state.
It is why the businesses give as much as they do, and why so many volunteers do jobs within the county for little or no pay. The parents, schools and churches within the community teach the children from an early age of the importance of giving back to the community in which they live and the lesson that it is more blessed to give than to receive.
This is why Cannon County has had over 360 donors in the past 2-½ years. Woodbury Lions Club and the American Red Cross both use fiscal years that begin on 1 July and end 30 June.
The following is a list of local heroes who gave during the 2009-2010 fiscal year. Those donating Double Red Blood Cells count as two donations, the max number of times any one can give in a fiscal year in whole blood or double red cells is 6. The number that follows a persons name is the amount of pints given as of 30 June 2010.

The Woodbury Lions Club has received several awards of appreciation from the American Red Cross for their support of the Community Blood Program, and there is a lot of speculation as to why a small community does so well on the blood drives.
A lot of the credit is given to the Lions Club for putting out an extra effort.
Some credit is given for having good media coverage with the Cannon Courier, the Cannon Wire, and WBRY radio. Some credit is given for the support given by the businesses in Cannon County.
Any community can have a civic organization that puts forth the extra effort, and have good media and local businesses supporting them, but they don’t have the attitude and dedication of serving others that is instilled into Cannon Countians from birth until death.
The Woodbury Lions Club expresses heartfelt gratitude to all the media, businesses, and donors for exceeding the yearly goals set forth by the Red Cross based on past history.
It is so great to live among so many heroes. Likes: 7 Viewed:

Cost of Shed Cleaning Services? Free estimates. Best Cleaning Services in Omaha Lincoln NE - Council Bluffs IA. REQUEST FREE QUOTE TODAY! SHED CLEANING SERVICES If you have a property with an old storage shed that’s stuffed full with all sorts of things, you’re certainly not alone. Lawn equipment, old boxes of who knows what, rolled carpet, paint, and practically anything else can be found in the space. Sheds tend to start out as an organized space where you park your lawn mower, string trimmer, and fertilizer cart, but, over time, they are overrun by things you just don’t want to deal with. It’s unorganized and messy and you need to clean out your storage shed to make it useful once again. How to Cleanout a Storage Shed Your once, well organized and functional storage shed is now a junkyard with walls and a roof. You want to reclaim that space and make it a go-to place where you can easily retrieve what you need, when you need it. The problem is, you really don’t know where to start and what’s worse, you’re unsure as to what’s in-store when you throw open the doors — the same doors which haven’t been opened for weeks or months on-end — just like that self storage unit you rent and rarely visit.
With so many of us working in the garden every day the storage shed where we keep our supplies has gotten, shall we say a little “cluttered”. OK it’s a mess, but what better opportunity to show what a little planning and elbow grease can accomplish. —Home Depot That presents the first obstacle of many, how to get into the storage space and what you might encounter. If you haven’t gone into the shed for some months, it’s best to proceed with caution because you might encounter some nasty critters who have taken-up residence inside. It’s not uncommon for roaches, rodents, and snakes to get in and nest, which can become a source of infestation in your home nearby. Here’s how to do storage shed cleanout right to retake the space:
Knock and bang on the doors and walls. As mentioned, pests like to turn storage sheds into safety havens, and these can be very problematic. Besides, you don’t want to be surprised by a snake or have cockroaches falling when you fling open the doors. So, knock and bang on the doors and walls to send them scattering. Allow a few moments to pass, then open the doors slowly and carefully.
Clear everything out. You’ll have to clear the entire shed out down to the last item. Leave nothing inside and when pulling things out, put like items together to make organizing and purging a bit more simple.
Hose it down and scrub all surfaces. If you have the shed wired for electricity, be sure to turn it off at the breaker and don’t wet any outlets, switches, or, wiring. Hose the inside down, and, use a degreasing cleaner for best results. Be sure to scrub all surfaces and then let it dry out overnight.
Sort everything to get organized. While it’s drying out, you should sort all the contents to get them organized and separate things into items you’ll keep, stuff to give away or sell, and, junk to throw out.
If you have a lot of junk from your storage shed clean out, just visit Lincoln HOUSEHOLD SERVICES and we’ll be happy to lend a helping hand. Don’t worry about having to make trips to different places and pay hefty fees, we’ll do it all for you..

Most essential tools for gardening
Do you have a favorite garden tool? Something that you keep within arm’s reach every time you go into the garden? What do you use to make digging, pruning, growing or harvesting better for the back or more soothing for the soul? The “can’t-live-without-it” tool will vary from gardener to gardener, region to region and season to season.
Tumblr media
Here’s our top 10 list, based on interviews with gardeners in the Southeast who range in experience from serious home gardener to nursery owner — and everything in between.
It’s just the start of a discussion. Tells us in the comments section if we’ve overlooked one of your favorites – or how you use the items in our list differently than we’ve described.
In the meantime, in no particular order the tools that made our list:
1. Scissors. Karen Converse, a master gardener in DeKalb County, Ga., says plain household scissors, nothing fancy, are her first choice of garden tools. She just sticks them in a pocket and uses them to deadhead flowers, snip herbs, harvest small vegetables such as peppers, open a bag of potting soil or a seed packet or cut string. She still remembers the day a professional nurseryman saw her using them in her community garden plot and remarked that any real gardener always carries a pair of scissors. Robert Wyatt, a retired professor of botany at the University of Georgia, uses a pair of heavy-duty garden scissors with plastic-coated handles to harvest vegetables.
Gardening Tool Set for Mom http://www.homegardeningplans.com/choosing-the-best-gardening-tool-set-for-mom
2. Weeders. Manufacturers give them different names, but one that is at the top of several lists goes by the common name of “dandelion digger.” That’s appropriate because these little tools are perfect for prying up weeds with taproots (like dandelions!) and crabgrass. They work well because they have a long, slender business-end that looks like a cross between a notched screw driver and a two-tine fork and are made to penetrate easily into the soil and remove weed roots from deep in the ground. The fork points are narrow and sharp enough to surgically coax out wood sorrel, spurge and annual bluegrass that like to hide in ground covers.
3. A soil knife. The Hori-Hori is a hands-on favorite of several gardeners we talked with. This is a Japanese tool with a stainless steel concave blade with a sharp edge on one side and a serrated edge on the other. It can be used for cutting through roots, transplanting, dividing perennials, slicing through sod, weeding, removing bonsai plants from pots and many more garden tasks. Van Malone, an avid gardener in North Atlanta, recalls forgetting it was in his car when he went on a business assignment to a federal nuclear facility in South Carolina. Because it has a seven-inch blade and the maximum blade length allowed at the facility was six inches, guards at the entrance to the plant told him that he would have to dispose of the tool. He complied by driving back down the road, hiding the tool in the woods off the property and retrieving it on the way home. (Now that’s a favorite tool!)
4. Pruning shears. Andy Sessions of Sunlight Gardens Nursery in Andersonville, Tenn., loves her Saboten Model 1210 from Japan for one simple reason: the blades are sharp. How sharp? At the local farmers co-op, where she buys her pruners, they are called sheep toe trimmers. She also likes them because of their small size and light weight. She uses them to prune woody perennials and finds them so effective that she gives them as Christmas gifts to gardening friends. Other brands that drew praise were Felco and Corona.
shallow microgreen trays http://www.homegardeningplans.com/shallow-germination-trays-microgreen-trays-growing-your-own-vegetable-confetti-heaven
5. Water hoses and water wands. What could be more important as much of the country suffers through record-breaking heat and drought? Amanda Campbell, manager of display gardens at the Atlanta Botanical Garden, says these are a staple. Her favorite brands are Gilmour hoses and Dramm wands with a shut-off valve. The shut off is the little brass piece that lets you turn the water on and off without constantly going back and forth to the spigot.
6. A shovel. But not just any shovel. Wyatt, the retired UGA professor, likes the Sharpshooter. It is a small, compact shovel with a long, narrow blade that is curved and digs deep holes. He says he finds it a lot more efficient than a long-handled, broad-bladed traditional shovel for digging in hard clay soil where he may hit occasional rocks. The Sharpshooter blade can also be sharpened. Rene Freie in Peachtree City, Ga., likes the Kombi shovel, which looks as much like a Samurai weapon as a digging tool. Its jagged edges make it efficient for cutting through roots and compacted soil. Campbell also likes to use a snow shovel for spreading mulch, scooping debris and putting out topdressing. Just when you think you’d thought of everything! As an alternative to a shovel, Shelby Singleton of Carolina Native Nursery in Burnsville, N.C., likes to use a mattock. She says they are great for digging out small stumps or digging in clay. They are available in a small, hand-held size and a large shovel size. Singleton likes them because she says they are more effective than a shovel and don’t require as much strength.
7. Rakes. As with shovels, not just any rake will do. Different rakes serve different purposes. Campbell particularly likes a shrub rake because it will fit into tight and small spaces better than a big fan rake. She likes to use fan rakes to rake off leaves, mulch, and tidy up when collecting the last debris. She also uses hard rakes to move leaves and mulch, but likes to flip it over and use it to move soil and compost, fine-tune grading in annual beds and smooth out soil. After putting soil in a planting hole, she says the hard rake is a great tool to smooth out the soil and blend it in with the rest of the bed.
How to Revive An Air Plant http://www.homegardeningplans.com/how-to-revive-an-air-plant
8. Saws. Wyatt likes a fixed, pull-to-cut saw with a slightly curved blade to prune woody plants. He uses a Corona RS 7385, for example, to cut cleanly and quickly through fairly large limbs. It can also be used to cut down small weedy trees. Others prefer a bow saw for pruning and shaping trees or clearing out undergrowth. Still others prefer a folding saw for its portability. The type of saw depends on the need. Anyone see a pattern here? Of course, you can always keep a pair of loppers handy. But, with pruning shears and a sturdy saw in your gardening tool kit, you likely won’t need it.
9. Loop hoe. Shawn Bard, another master gardener in DeKalb County, Ga., loves this modified hoe for edging and weeding. By using a back and forth motion, she says the blade is perfect for slipping beneath the top layer of soil and scraping the roots out of the dirt. Because the weeds come up very easily and the corners on the loop hoe make excellent edgers, she says it’s a great tool to tidy up beds. The other thing it does very well is cultivate the top layer of soil, which makes it perfect for mixing fertilizers or compost into the top layer without disturbing the soil structure beneath. This is especially handy if you want to add fertilizer or compost to a bed that is already planted or if you want to remove weeds or overgrowth in a bed that's already planted.
10. A hat. Alan Armitage, a professor of horticulture at the University of Georgia, told the 2011 Cullowhee Native Plant Conference at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, N.C., that he makes any student who comes to an outdoor class without a hat write an essay on skin cancer. That’s worth remembering each time you head into the garden.
The almost-made-it list
There were many other worthy suggestions that didn’t make our top 10 list. Some of these include: • A Tip Bag by Bosmere (for debris) • A kneeling pad • Gloves • A corn husk broom • A rolling cart to carry large shrubs or trees to a planting destination. • And this one, offered with a smile and a chuckle: a golf bag and cart with wheels and a handle – to carry shovels, rakes and other tools into the garden.
container plant ideas front door http://www.homegardeningplans.com/6-gorgeous-container-plant-ideas-for-front-door
In the end, the list differences aren’t important, Campbell points out. What’s important, she says, is to always buy quality products. Quality tools, she emphasizes, make all the difference in the world in enjoying working in the garden.
What tools are your favorites, how do you use them and how do they make gardening more enjoyable?

Facebook Twitter Email Print Save LARGO – After almost five years leading Largo Fire Rescue, Chief Shelby Willis has decided to trade the sunshine of Florida for the snow of Utah and will be resigning her post effective March 9. Largo’s first female fire chief, who has been with the department since 1997, was named to the top post in 2013 following the retirement of former Chief Mike Wallace. Starting April 1, she will begin her new position as deputy fire chief in Ogden, Utah, which is just north of Salt Lake City and has a population of 86,700, “We have always dreamed of living in Utah, Colorado or even Idaho. It’s just a way of life that we like and we want to do,” Willis said. “It’s a weird feeling,” she added. “I get the opportunity to start over, my family gets the opportunity to start over. Although that sounds pretty exciting, it’s pretty frightening.” Willis served as a police officer in the Air Force from 1985-89, joining at the age of 17. She returned to Florida in the hopes of continuing her career as a police officer, but found the opportunities lacking and decided to go back to school to become a paramedic, earning a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of South Florida. She later became a volunteer at the Redington Beach Fire Department before Largo Fire Rescue hired her as a paramedic/firefighter in 1997. By 2006, she was named division chief of emergency medical services and quickly rose up the ranks to chief. Willis, who is married and has a 10-year-old son, has also earned a master’s degree in safety-security and emergency management and completed the Executive Fire Officer Program with a perfect score. She is one of less than 4,000 graduates nationwide, and only the third executive fire officer in the history of the Largo department to achieve the milestone. Finding a new chief In a recent email to fire department personnel, City Manager Henry Schubert said his next step will be hiring an executive search firm to find the “best possible candidates.” “I will be looking for a new Chief who will continue the legacy of excellence for Largo Fire Rescue,” Schubert wrote. “I want a Chief who is innovative, creative, a good strategic thinker, someone who will have a productive working relationship with the union and be respectful of our outstanding workforce. I want someone who can collaborate with Pinellas County Administration and the other chiefs in the county as we continue to seek solutions to the increasing EMS call volume. I want a Chief who will effectively function as a member of the City’s Executive Leadership Team and support the City’s mission, vision, and values.” In the interim, Schubert said Deputy Chief Joseph Pennino, who is expected to apply for the position, will serve as the acting chief.
