took us by surprise today. 47-year-old Nicki Lynn Aycox, the actress that was best known for playing Meg Masters in Supernatural, has passed away.

The confirmation of her death was given by her sister-in-law on social media.

As of now, we aren’t sure why she passed away, but we do know that she had previously shared news about her leukemia diagnosis.

The creator of Supernatural, Eric Kripke, went on Twitter to say he was ‘gutted’ to hear about her passing.

He said: “She was a delight & delivered lines like honey & venom. I marvel at how she made a simple word like ‘lackluster’ legendary.”

Aycox played many different roles, including Providence, Over There, Dark Blue, Ed, and Cold Case.

May she rest in peace.

Mia Robertson, the youngest daughter of Duck Dynasty’s Jase & Missy Robertson, has been born with a condition known as cleft lip and palate, a gap in the upper lip that can involve the gum as well.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shares that about one in every 1,600 babies is born with a cleft lip with a cleft palate in the U.S.

Because of her condition, sweet Mia, who is now 18 years old, has been forced to undergo 13 surgeries, with the 14th taking place just recently. The family truly hopes this would be Mia’s last procedure before her problem is finally solved.

Throughout every surgery, the young girl remains positive. What’s most, she hopes she serves as inspiration for other young children who are born with the same condition. On her own initiative and with the help of her family, Mia established the Mia Moo Fund in order to assist in making certain that each and every child wears a smile on their face.

“One of the functions of the Mia Moo Fund is to spread awareness of the cleft lip and palate journey,” Missy Robertson told Christian Post. “The other one is to help with medical funds for the parents and the families living right here in America.”

On his podcast Unashamed, Jase Robertson shared an update on Mia’s condition and said that his daughter is recovering well.
“She’s doing great. She’s turned a corner,” he said, and then added, “Everything seems great, seems to be fine.”

“Surgery went a little longer than expected, but she is home and recovering,” the loving father told his podcast listeners. “Thank you for praying for her and for our family. She is a champion!”

Before the surgery took place, Missy spoke of her daughter’s condition and explained that she had been constantly asked about the number of procedures Mia would need to undergo in the future. “There is never any other response than ‘We just don’t know,’” Missy said. She then added that they rely on God for assistance. “Since she is 18 now, she is taking the lead in all the discussions and medical forms. It’s been a little strange,” Missy wrote. “But it’s just another reminder to lean on the Lord and that I’m not in control.”

Mia also hopes that she’s at “the finish line.”

“Hopefully the last time I’ll see my doctors in this setting! It’s been a long road but we are at the finish line,” brave Mia said.

The Robertson’s have also been preparing for a new addition to the family as they open the doors to their hearts and home for a child whose mother was unfit to take care of.

We wish Mia speedy recovery.

Discover the Best Ways to Grow Tomatoes at Home

Tomatoes are a versatile fruit that can be used in a wide variety of meals, from soups and pastas to salsas and chilis. If you consume a lot of tomatoes, growing your own could save you money and provide you with better flavor. While planting a tomato seedling is the most common approach to starting a new harvest, there are other options to consider. Here are four strategies that can guarantee a never-ending supply of your favorite fruit.

1. Bury Tomato Slices

Did you know that burying tomato slices can lead to a bountiful harvest? The Wannabe Homesteader offers a simple and low-cost solution. All you need is an overripe tomato, some potting soil, and several containers.
Fill a large container with potting soil until it is almost full. Next, place a few thin tomato slices on top of the soil. Choose slices that have a lot of seeds and bury them in enough dirt to prevent them from sprouting. Wait for a week or two for them to start growing.

It takes about a week for the tomato seeds to germinate. You can grow up to 60 seedlings in one container. Identify the top four or five strongest sprouts, take cuttings, and plant them elsewhere. Check on the young plants every few weeks, and remove the weaker ones to make room for the stronger ones.

2. Plant Them in the Ground

If you have a large yard with plenty of sunlight, planting your tomatoes directly in the ground can increase your harvest significantly. Bonnie Plants claims that this approach also reduces the need for watering. However, keep in mind that deer and rabbits may enjoy munching on your garden, so you’ll need to take precautions.

3. Grow Them in a Window Box

Tomatoes can also be grown successfully in a window box, even if you don’t have much space for a garden. Use a window box that can hold at least 1.5 liters of soil and support the plant with a string trellis drilled into the wall. To make this strategy work, use smaller tomato varieties.

4. Grow them in a Hanging Basket

If you’re worried about damaging your windowsill by hanging a heavy box from it, use a hanging basket instead of a pot on the porch. However, keep in mind that the plant will require more water than it would in a standard container since the water will evaporate more quickly. Try using a cascade cherry tomato variety, as suggested by DIY Network.

Growing your own tomatoes at home is an easy and cost-effective way to enjoy fresh, flavorful fruit throughout the year. Consider these strategies to ensure a never-ending supply of your favorite fruit.

Stapelia is a genus of low-growing, spineless, stem succulent plants, predominantly from South Africa with a few from other parts of Africa. Several Asian and Latin American species were formerly included but they have all now been transferred to other genera.[2][3] The flowers of certain species, most notably Stapelia gigantea, can reach 41 cm (16 inches) in diameter when fully open. Most Stapelia flowers are visibly hairy and generate the odor of rotten flesh when they bloom.

Description
The hairy, oddly textured and coloured appearance of many Stapelia flowers has been claimed to resemble that of rotting meat, and this, coupled with their odour, has earned the most commonly grown members of the genus Stapelia the common name of carrion flowers. A notable exception is the sweetly scented Stapelia flavopurpurea. Such odours serve to attract various specialist pollinators including, in the case of carrion-scented blooms, blow flies of the dipteran family Calliphoridae. They frequently lay eggs around the coronae of Stapelia flowers, convinced by the plants’ deception.[4]

Cultivation
A handful of species are commonly cultivated as pot plants and are even used as rockery plants in countries where the climate permits. Stapelia are good container plants and can grow well under full sun and light to moderate watering. They should be planted in well-drained compost as the stems are prone to rotting if kept moist for long.[5]

One of the best ways to stand out in a crowd? Just be bigger than everyone else.
