I have recently published Horizon Cattle Company to EDJE Cattle.

How Horizon Cattle Company Came About:

In 2000 Larry and Jana Hafer were fortunate to acquire their first Angus cows. Not new to the seedstock business they decided to start this herd for their son with the vision and focus on efficient Angus cattle with good udders and unmatched phenotypic eye appeal. Although the herd is small in size, the quality of Angus cattle you will find is quite remarkable. Cattle for sale at all times and visitors are always welcome! Feel free to contact them with any of your seedstock needs.

Family Vision Care was established in downtown LaGrange, IL in 1934. The practice was moved to various locations in town until they settled in their permanent home at 100 Calendar Court in 1986. With over 5000 square feet, their high tech, modern eight exam room facility still has that warm neighborly feel that it had over 70 years ago.

Family Vision Care of LaGrange, IL is committed to providing their patients with the highest quality of care, the finest products and a staff devoted to education and patient satisfaction.

They have 1500 frames on display. They carry many designer lines including Gucci, Liz Claiborne and Christian Dior, as well as funky European lines such as Kliik and Fysh from Denmark, and many more.

The Judging Connection is designed to place educators, coaches, teachers, show committee members, judging enthusiasts, and judges in contact with each other. The Judging Connection has been established with the mission to provide a database for qualified livestock judges and present high quality educational materials. Our intent is to create new methods on how we select judges, teach students, and aid in prioritizing education in livestock shows. We hope you take the time to review our judge database and biographies to aid in your next judge selection. Our goal is to provide the hot topics and featured articles that are pertinent to educators, teachers, judges, and show enthusiasts.

Pointers for Selecting a Judge:

• Look at the judge's experience, career, and previous shows judged.
• Estimate if the judge can handle the size of the show based on their experience and age.
• See if the judge is qualified to judge the classes and animals in the show.
• Evaluate the achievements the judge has previously won.
• Look over the judge’s educational background.
• Review what kind of communication skills the judge may possess.
• Go over what kind of educational programs or presentations a judge may have been involved in.
• Analyze the judge's availability.
• Review if the judge is willing to travel and if the show is going to compensate the judge for their time or expense.
• Assess if the judge lives far enough away from the show being asked to judge.
• Find a judge that works well with the youth.
• Select a person that this fair, ethical, courteous, and honest.
• Assess if the judge shows or raises livestock themselves.
• Analyze if the judge is old enough or mature enough to judge the age group participating in the show.
• Select the judge you feel is best fitted for your show or educational program.

The key to being a successful judge is to make quick decisions, communicate your decisions from the top of the class to the bottom, organize your thoughts, evaluate the animals to the best of your abilities, select a variety of winners, avoid showing favoritism, and always judge the livestock and not the people.

Ever said to yourself:

"I'd sure like to get rid of that shelterbelt. Overgrown trees, dead trees, it is such an eye sore!"

With low till and and no till methods being used today, it isn't necessary to clutter up your farmland with unsightly shelterbelts. Shelterbelt Solutions isn't an excavating company, they are a tree company. They just want to provide a better method for removing unwanted trees.

You may have thought that only a bulldozer could do the job of removing a shelterbelt, but with the processes that Shelterbelt Solutions uses with the  tree xtrakter you can remove small bushes or trees leaving the surrounding trees intact. It is also great at taking out stumps.

Shelterbelt Solutions services all of North Dakota, Northwest Minnesota, and parts of South Dakota and Montana. If you have a shelterbelt that needs removed, give them a try.

Actimune, can help to maintain a healthy immune system, which in turn helps to keep the whole horse healthy. Actimune may assist in maintaining the natural efficiency of the digestive system, thus allowing the horse to make the best use of its feed, which helps it to perform to its maximum potential. Actimune addresses the food requirements of the healthy, intestinal microbes. An additional benefit of the product is that it helps to neutralize
unwanted substances, which then pass
from the animal in a harmless state.

Actimune may help to stimulate the horse's own natural production of red blood cells to maintain the healthy oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood.

I just published a site today for the Dolphins at Walnut Creek YMCA Swim Team. I had so much fun designing this website because of all the fun colors and things I could do with it!

The Walnut Creek YMCA Swim Team in Des Moines, Iowa features two teams within their program:

• The Dolphins Competitive Swim Team attends 10-12 swim meets throughout the season, November-April. Meets are typically on Saturdays and run an average of 4-6 hours. They will have a State Qualifying Meet in February, State Championship Meet in March and the Midwest Regional Meet in March/April. 
  
• The WC Wavemakers Team is non-competitive and is a great starting point for beginning swimmers who would like to swim competitively in the future. The Wavemakers attend practices separate from the Competitive Team, several days a week. 

Walnut Creek YMCA Swim Team's coaches and families bring a high level of commitment to their program! Parents of the swimmers volunteer to run every home meet, from timers to concessions, computer operators and more.
