Columbus Municipal Airport will receive more than $2.5 million in Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grants for infrastructure and safety improvements. The funds will be used for the airports fencing project.

The grants, which total $2,793,500, were announced Friday by Rep. Greg Pence, R-Ind. The funding includes $279,350 from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, which Pence supported in March.

Airport Director Brian Payne said that once the funds arrive, all of the money will go toward the airports fencing project, which includes not just perimeter fencing but also work on back-access drives behind hangars.

Were very happy with receiving the grant, and appreciate the support that weve got from Congressman Pence and the FAA to receive these funds, Payne said. Thatll be a huge improvement for our airport thats been needed for quite some time, so were looking forward to the project.

He said that while the board has already voted to accept the grant, there are still some decisions that need to be made before the airport submits its final plans to the FAA.

The debate for aviation board members now is what type of fence will be requested of the FAA, Payne said.

The design for 10-foot fencing between hangars, which was the initial plan submitted to the FAA, was created by Payne, the airport and its consulting firm. He believes it to be the safest and most secure option.

Tenants, on the other hand, asked the airport to look at a smaller fence between hangars and a larger fence on the outside.

The main concern from the airports standpoint, the administrations standpoint, is that we would have more people coming through what would be the larger fence and the larger gate into their hangar complex or their hangar buildings, Payne said.

He said that some people have also raised concerns about the appearance of the fencing. Payne said the plan is to have a more ornamental black, iron fence around the terminal building and black, PVC-coated chainlink for the rest of the property, not nearly as institutional as some people have feared.

Payne said the airport board will meet this afternoon to discuss the fencing project and hopefully come to a decision about which fence to request. Once a decision has been made, the airport will submit its final plan and numbers to the FAA for final review.

He said that the final numbers shouldnt be that far off from what was originally estimated. Depending on which fence option is chosen, there would be a difference of about 100 or 200 lineal feet of fencing, Payne said.

Payne said that the foremost function of the fence will be to keep out wildlife. He added that it will also limit the number of vehicles that are able to access the airfield.

You know when you see something that just looks right, but you cant put your finger on why? Chances are it has to do with its scaleand more often than not proportions influenced by classical architecture, says Alexa Hampton, who built a foundational knowledge of such buildings while traveling with her father, the legendary American decorator Mark Hampton. But this concept isnt just something from the history books: Its built around function.

If you dig back into why things are the way they are, its all about the sizing of people," explains Hampton. For example: "The reason why I like sconces at five foot six off the ground, is because that is generally where eyeballs are," she says.

The general consistency in human size has resulted in a sort of template for design that has existed across generations and continents. Many of the lessons of proportion Hampton cites date back to classical antiquity. Understanding classical decor is a lot like the idea that modern dancers must first learn balletits about grasping the foundations of any art form, which empowers you to employ them in new combinations. "As Julie Andrews said, once you know the notes to sing, you can sing anything," Hampton says.

So how to learn those notes? Well, "the easiest education you can get in design is to look at classical architecture," Hampton urges. "Look at Buckingham Palace or Gothic architecture or Russian palaces. The more you look, the more youll understand it."

To go along with these observations, Hampton offers some notes. Think of this as your study guide, and once you read it, go back and look at some of your favorite buildings and spacesit just may make you see them in a whole new light.

As Hampton said, it's all based on the human forma template that won't change, whether you're in a grand estate or a modest apartment. And it's worth keeping that in mind when you decorate: "I don't actually believe that furniture should scale up if your room is biggerI think that's ridiculous," Hampton says. "It should all be scaled to the human body."

"Sometimes people get these huge homes and they think they have to scale up," says the designer. "They put the pictures too high and the furniture far apart, and it just looks off."

Instead of scaling up for a larger space, Hampton suggests creating multiple groupings of human-scaled furniture within it.

Of course, sizing based off of humans is inherently logical. "There's always a vein of practicality running through the whole process," says Hampton of her interior design work. This concept is a good one to fall back on when you're feeling unsure. What height should your countertops be? Probably just above your waist, so you can easily work at them while standing. How big should a rug in your bedroom be? Wide enough for you to set your feet down on it when climbing out of bed. Where should you hang a painting? Roughly at eye level so you can see it. Once you begin approaching design in these terms, you realize its "rules" are less strict barriers and more sensible

"One of the central ways I think to be more fluid about proportion is to have pieces of many different proportions in a room," Hampton says. "If you have all furniture of the same size, there's no rhythm, there's no balance movement, it's very static."

But still, she advises, the central barometer should beyou guessed itthe human form. "Once you establish that framework, you can go above and below, or that through line, go up and below it," she says. "But it all is tethered to that line."

That line, in fact, is what connects pieces of smaller and larger scales. Speaking by phone from a room her father decorated, Hampton says, "This room has a really large sofa, and then these tiny slipper chairs. And if I were to just show these chairs and this sofa to a client, they would think I was crazy. But it's not in a vacuum: It has pieces of other sizes connecting them. And those together make it scaled both to the room and to the human body."

Not only do you want proportional variation in your furniture, you want it in your layout. In a large room, break the footprint into sections with rugs of varying sizes. Oftentimes you want a really big rug to amplify and to connect the spaces," Hampton says. "But then you might put a smaller rug under the coffee table and part of the sofa, to punctuate that space as a destination of its own."

This will also direct the flow of a room: "You need to think of traffic patterns," says Hampton. "There needs to be a path from the opening into the room to the door going outside." These pathways can be dictated both by furniture placement and rug outlines. "For example, you can't have the edge of a rug be your path," Hampton says. "Your path is either covered by rug, or it's not covered by rug." If you are decorating a room that connects two other rooms, serving as a kind of transitional space, make sure there is a clear path from one door to the other.

As Hampton says, the more you look at your surroundings (or books and magazines featuring great interiors), the better you'll come to understand what worksand what doesn't. The designer recalls one instance as a teenager that confirmed the importance of education by seeing.

"Right after I graduated from college, my father was supposed to go on this trip to Italy with the American Academy in Rome," she recalls. "And at the last minute, he couldn'tso my mother and I went. I was totally thrilled." Their companions on the trip were a group of top architects, designers, and artists.

"One day, I found myself standing next to Michael Graves, and we were on this hillside overlooking a building," Hampton recalls. "And he said to me, 'Can you tell me what's wrong with that house?' What a question to be asked by a genius in his field," Hampton says. "I was terrified."

"My mind was racing, and I finally said, 'there are four windows on that side and there should be five,'" she recalls. Graves nodded "and I ran away as fast as I could," laughs Hampton.

"I've thought a lot about this story over the years. And at the end of the day I think it wasn't luckit was just, if you look enough and see enough, eventually, you can tell if something's off."

ALMOST half of Brits are considering a change of career - with medical professions, landscape gardening and teaching topping the list of preferred industries.

A survey of 2,000 adults revealed this years events had left two-thirds thinking life is too short to be working in a job they hate.

1

This could mean a shift in careers for millions, with a fifth (21 per cent) admitting they dont enjoy their job and 42 per cent seriously considering a change in profession.

Three in 10 (31 per cent) of those polled by the National Lottery said lockdown had made them realise how important a good work-life balance is.

The desire to work in a traditional office role has gone out of the window, with 23 per cent considering a medical career, 12 per cent saying theyd love to be a gardener and 11 per cent wanting to retrain as a teacher.

One in 10 said theyd like to start again as a chef or baker, eight per cent would now like to join the charity sector, and one in twenty (six per cent) have spent so much time online that they now want to become a social media influencer.

The National Lottery carried out the research ahead of tonights EuroMillions rollover draw - where an estimated 126 million jackpot is up for grabs.

Despite the life-changing sums won on the lottery, 22 per cent of Lottery millionaires have chosen to carry on working by retraining for a new career in an industry theyre more passionate about.

The survey revealed just three in 10 Brits would give up working if they won the lottery, with 36 per cent learning a new trade.

When asked what role theyd take on if they scooped a big prize, 16 per cent said theyd train to be a pilot while 13 per cent said theyd like to learn how to be a florist.

Barbara Derry-McClellan is one of the lucky winners to quit their unfulfilling job to start a new career after she scooped the 2.3 million Lotto Jackpot in 2000.

She didnt want to sit at home all day so, two years later, followed her passion and started her own florist shop.

Eighteen years later, Barbara and her husband Ian own both a flower shop, Pinks of Hazlemere, and run a florist wholesale business supplying to flower shops and floral artists across the UK.

She said: I hated my job at a courier company, it was so boring and unfulfilling.

I didnt really have any other skills apart from being good at talking to customers but I did think my mum (a florist) was super talented and that Id love to be able to do what she did.

The National Lottery win gave me that chance to try my hand at flower arranging and I have loved every minute, first working in the shops and now supplying other flower businesses direct.

It can be incredibly busy and hard work, especially on big occasions like Mother's Day and Valentines but I find it really rewarding.

I probably wouldnt have made the leap if it hadnt been for the Lotto win and now Im surrounded by beautiful blooms everyday what more could a girl ask for?

Three quarters (78 per cent) of those surveyed said the events of 2020 had made them reconsider their lifestyle and priorities.

Two thirds (66 per cent) have pledged to become healthier, 45 per cent want to spend more time with their loved ones, and 32 per cent are committed to travelling the world, as soon as its safe to do so.

Andy Carter, Camelots senior winners advisor, added: 2020 seems to have left many of us wanting more from our jobs, thinking about what our next career move might be or jacking it all in to do something that we really love.

Our passion for gardening and cooking in lockdown and months of home-schooling has clearly inspired the nation to consider a career overhaul and realise the importance of job satisfaction.

The importance of our careers doesnt appear to change even after a lottery win, with only a number of the people looking to quit their jobs if they get lucky.

Half of Brits consider career change with medical professions, gardening and teaching topping list of - The Sun

We have spent the past month dealing with what we believe are sod webworms. We have thousands of the little moths fluttering around in our grass and bushes. We have tried both bifenthrin granules and spinosad spray applications to the entire yard, in addition to an acephate mixture sprayed directly onto the moths. So far, nothing has worked, and we have even more moths now than we did when we started treating for them a month ago. Do you have any suggestions? Melinda and Peter Broussard

Large numbers of small tan or gray moths flying around the lawn alert you to a problem with sod webworms. However, the adult moths are not the issue, and there is really no practical way to control them. Insecticide applications are meant to control the destructive caterpillars, not the adult moths. It is the sod webworm caterpillars that damage our lawns.

If your lawn has remained damage free (and I assume it has because you did not mention lawn damage in your question), then your insecticide treatments have done the job they were intended to do.

As long as you continue to see large numbers of adult moths, you may continue to treat with the bifenthrin or spinosad (organic) every seven to 10 days following label directions. If you want to minimize spraying, you may hold off on additional insecticide treatments and watch for lawn damage. As soon as you see damage start to show up, treat promptly. Since the caterpillars just eat the blades of grass and leave the roots, runners and growing points alone, healthy lawns generally recover very well from damage.

Everyone needs to be aware of the continuing problem we are having with this pest in area lawns this year. Several generations of sod webworms may occur, and you may see damage any time from June to October. If you see the moths in your lawn, dont treat immediately. Remember, insecticide treatments are not done to control the moths. But watch your lawn carefully. At the first sign of damage, treat promptly. The insecticides will not be effective until the eggs have hatched and the caterpillars are feeding.

How do I know when my purple eggplants are ready to harvest? Barry Henderson

We harvest eggplants in the unripe, immature stage. As such, you cannot harvest them too early. Baby eggplants are a delight to eat. But you can definitely leave them too long. Eggplants should be harvested when they are one-third to two-thirds full mature size. But size can be confusing, and it is best to go by the skin. When harvesting purple eggplants, the skin should be glossy and dark.

When the skin begins to turn dull, this indicates over maturity, and you should harvest immediately no matter what size. Harvest eggplants using pruning shears since the stem is tough. If you leave the fruit on way too long, it will begin to change color. When fully ripe, eggplants will turn yellow, seedy, bitter and inedible. Dont waste perfectly good eggplants by leaving them on the bush too long.

Any eggplant bushes still growing should be left in the garden if they are in good shape. Apply some fertilizer now. Large fruited eggplants often produce poorly through the heat of summer, but will set abundant eggplants once the weather cools. If you would like to add eggplants to your garden for fall production, plant transplants as soon as possible.

How do I know my limes are ripe to pick? Cathy Behrens

Limes are generally harvested from late August into October. Because they are harvested in the green, unripe stage, it is not a matter of waiting for them to ripen. Pick a couple now and see how you like them. Continue to harvest through September and into October and see how/if the flavor changes. This may help determine when you will do most of your harvesting in the future.

More than sixty-five varieties of grasses grow in the Kodiak Archipelago, as well as many types of sedges and rushes. The most widely harvested grass is beach rye grass (Elymus arenarius), a plant common across the northern hemisphere. This tall, sturdy grass grows in open environments, particularly at the margins of saltwater beaches. It has wide, flat, coarse leaves that are known for their stiffness, particularly in comparison with other types of grasses. Beach rye grass was traditionally gathered by both Alutiiq men and women and used both fresh and dried.

Grass was an especially important raw material in Kodiaks treeless regions. Alutiiq people used it in building and insulating structures. Each fall grasses were cut to thatch the roofs of sod houses, provide a clean floor covering, and create fresh bedding. Grass was also used in food storage and preparation. Storage pits were lined with grass, grass provided tinder for cooking fires, and it was used as a cutting surface: a clean place to butcher fish and meat. Alutiiq people once used rye grass to create a variety of household objects. They wove baskets, drinking cups, mittens, and socks from this grass and tied it into banya switches. Rye grass, which can be harvested throughout Alaska, remains a popular weaving material among Native peoples.

A hot, humid day couldnt stop Madison Boy Scout Blake Johnson from getting closer to his goal of becoming an Eagle Scout.

Johnson and 13 adult and Scout volunteers spent all day Saturday, Aug. 22, laying landscape rocks along the north side of the American Legion Post 534 in McFarland to prevent damage from the riding lawnmower striking the building. The crew also installed rocks around the perimeter of the flag pole and floodlight that shines upward toward the flag at night.

The American Legion Post 534 is located at 4911 Burma Road, across the street from McFarland High School.

Johnson, who will be a senior at Abundant Life High School, was responsible for planning, developing and leading the project. According to the Boy Scouts website, life skills developed by Eagle Scouts through these projects added to the skills learned through Scouting remain with them for life. Eagle Scout is the highest rank in the organization.

Johnson said the area in front of the building had 28 hostas that were removed and replanted in nearby areas. The grass was removed with a sod cutter, plastic edging was installed, the dirt was graded, landscaping fabric was placed on the dirt and then the crews shoveled in the rocks.

The (wooden) siding was getting chipped up by the lawnmower, and it was running up against the building, Johnson said. They dont have to mow for weeds or pull weeds. It saves the American Legion a lot of work.

The project began after the legion posts chaplain, Dale Sankey, contacted Johnsons troop to see if he would be interested in doing some work around the building.

He mentioned putting a rock border around the building, and I didnt think that seemed so hard, Johnson said.

Most materials used to complete the project were donated by Slinde Trucking and Materials of Madison, McFarland True Value Hardware, Rienders Landscaping Supplies of Madison and Staples Office Supplies in Monona. Concrete Service Company of Stoughton provided the Bobcat.

Johnson, who has been a Scout for 11 years, said achieving Eagle Scout status signifies all the work he has put in as both a Cub Scout and Boy Scout.

After graduating from Abundant Life, Johnson said he may attend UW-Platteville and study to become a mechanical engineer.

McFarland High School sophomore Keegan Bell, one of the Boy Scout volunteers, said it was fun to help Johnson get closer to his goal of becoming an Eagle Scout.

We all participated in every job and helped out each other in every way, Bell said. It really helps out Blake, and it helps out the other kids with their service hours so they can advance in rank. Its a nice day and Blakes a nice guy. He deserves the Eagle.

Leach said gardeners also should expect to add soil amendments, or elements to improve the soils texture or composition.

The misunderstanding that many new gardeners have is that once you fix your soil, its fixed, but organic matter is constantly shifting, and the hotter and wetter it is, the faster it will decompose and disappear, she said.

Gardeners can make their own soil amendments by starting a composting pile or buying a composting bin that can be turned often, or they can buy organic matter thats not treated with herbicide.

You can buy bagged compost and manure; [however] in manures, if the animal grazed in a pasture treated with herbicide, the manure may have residual herbicides for two years, Leach said. That can keep plants from germinating or can stunt plants. She added that the manure industry is aware of this problem and is trying to better source where the manures come from.

Tim Millard, a backyard gardener in Roanoke, has planted vegetable gardens for the past two years. He created his own composting bin by combining sawdust and grass clippings in a 95-gallon drum that he turns regularly.

It continues to break down so much that by July, I had a pile that was probably 100 cubic yards to put back into my garden, he said.

Millard warns that gardeners should be aware of their soil content before adding anything to it. He evaluated his soil by sending away for a testing kit that revealed he has sandy loam, which could take a little more silt.

Late-summer gardening needs your time and effort. Supplied

The tricky part of gardening is understanding how the seasons change and the demands for your attention change also.

This is late summer and here is what you need to know about late-summer gardening:

Lawn:Days are shorter, evening cooler. This is ideal for grass. The next five to six weeks is the best time of year to sow a new lawn or thicken an old one. The weather works in favour of seed germination and root development, which is also good for growing sod.

Prepare the area with three to five cm of lawn soil or triple mix. Broadcast quality grass seed over the area, rake it smooth and step on it to firm the seed into the soil. Water well. Keep it reasonably wet until germination, which should occur in 10 days to two weeks. Fertilize later this fall.

Veggies:Get weeds under control. A tomato plant does not enjoy competing with deeply rooted weeds for water, soil-borne nutrients and sunlight. No matter what food crop you grow, make sure the garden is as weed-free as possible.

Water. If we run into a prolonged dry spell, where less than two cm of rain falls in a week, water veggies deeply but infrequently. We never water more than once a week. Drying soil drives plant roots deeper, making them more drought-resistant. This is true for flowering perennials also. Avoid watering tomato plants now as the blight is lurking and will be promoted by wet foliage.

Herbs. Allow to dry more deeply than vegetables. Water only once every two weeks in a drought. Exception: basil. Water weekly.

Mulch. This is a good time of year to apply a layer of cedar bark mulch, clean straw or even several layers of newspaper to insulate the soil from weeds and the drying effects of the sun. Your mulch will break down over time, adding organic nutrients to the soil.

Harvest. Pick before the vegetables mature into seed-producing machines. Remember that a pea plant is not programmed to produce food for humans: it is programmed to produce seeds for reproduction. This is true for all plants, including tomatoes, peppers, and the like. Pick, eat and be healthy. And keep picking.

Perennials. Many of your flowering perennials have finished flowering. Cut the finished flower stem off now as many will bloom again later in the season. This works well for veronica, salvia and delphiniums. Many perennials will produce flowers in September through November. Plant garden mums, asters, hydrangeas, rose of Sharon, sedum, perennial hibiscus and even the native goldenrod now.

A special note on golden rod, which was considered a weed not long ago: Experts like Doug Tallamy, who wrote the book Natures Best Hope, tells us that goldenrod is one of the most successful perennial plants for attracting pollinators and insects that are favoured by foraging songbirds. The pollen, by the way, is sticky and therefore does not contribute to the airborne pollen that causes humans to sneeze.

Whether you know a lot or a little, the benefits of gardening are always huge and a bit more knowledge goes a long way.
