Prospective home buyers can enter to win tickets to a VIP event and cupcake-decorating contest with Stewart as special guest and judge on July 20
Rhode already has earned enough domestic qualifying points in skeet to secure a position in London, where she'll attempt to add to an Olympic medal collection that includes two golds (1996 and 2004) and a bronze (2000) in double trap and a silver (2008) in skeet.ORLANDO, Fla. -- KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the nation’s premier homebuilders, and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia today announced their newest project: a beautiful collection of new homes created with Martha Stewart at KB Home’s Mabel Bridge community in Orlando. To celebrate the new home offerings, KB Home is inviting prospective buyers throughout the Orlando and Tampa area to enter to win tickets to a VIP event with special guest Martha Stewart on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 at KB Home’s Mabel Bridge community. One lucky grand prize winner will also win a trip for two to New York City to attend a taping of The Martha Stewart Show on Hallmark Channel.For your outdoor patio furniture choices, the old rules still apply to buy quality. Why save a buck on an inferior product just to replace it down the road when it falls apart. With this in mind, tropical hardwood patio furniture has withstood the test of time. Balau, which is a sisterwood to teak, offers a weather resistant durability while still looking very upscale and expensive. Unlike teak, balau is not on the endangered species list and thus more affordable."You don't think of yourself as being the best at what you do," she said. "You do dishes. You eat lunch. You tie your shoes one at a time. You're just like everybody else."In addition to offering unique features from Martha Stewart, the KB homes at Mabel Bridge are designed to help their owners save money while also being environmentally conscious. As in all new KB Home communities, all homes will be ENERGY STAR® qualified and engineered to heat and cool efficiently and use fewer energy resources with standard features such as low-E windows, radiant barrier roofing and ENERGY STAR qualified appliances. Also included in all new KB homes is the KB Home Energy Performance Guide™ (EPG), an estimate of monthly electric and/or gas costs for each home as designed as well as valuable information on the home’s relative energy efficiency when compared to a typical new home or resale home.Setting her sights on another Olympic medal isn't a lofty aspiration for Rhode. After all, she said, "If you don't put yourself out there and aren't willing to share your goal or your dream with anybody, you have no chance of succeeding. It's something that you have to be willing to take the chance on. ... I'm going for a big record. No pressure, right?"It's a continual learning process for Rhode, who hunted on African safaris as a child and was 13 when she grabbed her first world title, in double trap. She had competed in double trap - shooters must hit two clay disks that are released simultaneously - until the event was eliminated from the Olympics after 2004, when she switched to skeet, in which clay targets also are sent airborne from a firing hut, at varying heights and sometimes in pairs.Rhode has perfected her craft with a new shotgun she has sported since 2008, to replace the customized Perazzi she had used for 18 years that was stolen from her pickup truck - and later recovered by police. She's still in search of a perfect 100, having recorded a 98, and she insists that her new gun "has made me even better because it has made me focus harder. It definitely doesn't feel the same. But it doesn't feel bad either."
