Extreme Makeover Home Edition Features Ashland Oregon Business

Ashland Oregon business, Funagain Games, sells all kinds of games, but specializes in hobby and designer games. Last August, the business received an e-mail from a producer who works for Extreme Makeover Home Edition asking for help with one of their projects. The company agreed to help.

Funagain Games was told by the show's producers that the design team was building and decorating, not only a home, but also a community center for kids. The company donated a wide range of games for all ages, from easy to complex. "Altogether it was about $1,700 dollars worth of stuff," said, Funagain Games Manager Nick Medinger.

When approached in August 2009, the company was asked by the producers of Extreme Makeover Home Edition to not mention anything about the episode until they were contacted again by the producers. That contact came on Thursday.

The Extreme Makeover Home Edition episode featuring the Ashland Oregon Business will air Sunday, February 14th at 8 p.m.

What's in Your Coffee?

Melinda Peterson Grants Pass  Southern Oregon Real Estate Cafe: Real Estate Agent in Grants Pass, OR

What's in Your Coffee?What's in Your Coffee? An interesting blog called "Putting Weird Things in Coffee" by a Canadian grad student has hit the Internet. He has experimented with putting the most unlikely ingredients in his coffee, such as smoked salmon cream cheese, bacon, and cheese bread to name a few.

You might ask, why in the world would anyone combine such strange ingredients in their morning cup of joe. The grad student explains, (as he puts it) "I drink coffee every day, but get bored with the same old cream and sugar."

Perhaps boredom can be the catalyst for ingenuity and creativity. If so, perhaps we should all consider giving it a try. So I ask, what's in your coffee?

Ashland Oregon Artists Calling All Southern Oregon Artists - Ashland, Oregon! The Ashland Forest Lands Commission (AFLC) is sponsoring an Ashland Watershed Map Contest calling all local Southern Oregon artists to enter a rough black and white drawing of a cartoon like map of Ashland's watershed and city.

The winning artist, who will be selected by the AFLC at their April meeting along with members of the SOU Arts Department and the Arts Commission, will then create a full color map of Ashland's Watershed and other key features of the city. The artist will have their name put on the map and will be awarded $500 for the completed map. The map will also function as a tourist map of Ashland highlighting key features of the city and surrounding area. See www.ashland.or.us/mapcontest for more information.

Local Southern Oregon Artists have until April 5th, 2010 to make their submissions. All submissions should be emailed to: ashlandwatershed@gmail.com. Good luck!
