OXFORD — Runners and walkers of all ages gathered at Oxford Middle School on Saturday, May 4, for the annual Angiosarcoma 5K hosted by Oxford resident Ted Painter and his wife Corrie, who is an angiosarcoma survivor. According to Corrie, the event was created by the couple as a way to not only raise money to fund research, but make people aware of the rare form of cancer. The illness affects the blood vessels and is an extremely rare form of sarcoma, affecting 1 to 2 percent of patients.

The answer for Dena, acclaimed design- er and author of “The Painted Home,” is simple: Look at every room as an opportunity to reflect who you are by surrounding your- self with the things you love. From the kitchen, a warm and welcoming space, to the bedroom, a haven for relaxation and dreaming, Dena offers a host of insider tips and practical, whimsical DIY proj- ects in “The Painted Home” that can bring out the designer in anyone. “There are countless yet inexpen- sive ways to transform the everyday into something special,” says Dena. “With a trip to the flea market, some needle and thread, a glue gun and, of course, paint, there’s no limit to what you can do to turn your home into a place that is uniquely yours.” Dena Designs’ home products include everything from rugs and wallpaper to stationery and chil- dren’s decor and can be found in more than 15,000 retail outlets, including Dillard’s and Bed Bath & Beyond.

BY KEITH GRIFFIN The Mazda CX-5 is the stunning success that the Japanese automak- er needs to turn its fortunes around. It is simply an impressive compact crossover utility vehicle that should go to the top of any buyer’s consid- eration list because of its low price, fuel efficiency and emphasis on con- tent. The 2013 model Mazda loaned me for a week has been on the market for slightly more than a year. Dare I say it? Could this be the model that finally breaks my love affair with my beloved Mazda5 mini-minivan? Possibly. One thing about compact crossovers is they tend not to be as fuel efficient as one thinks, but the Mazda CX-5 takes care of that by offering the best-in-class fuel num- bers. Estimated EPA fuel economy for the CX-5 is 26 city/33 highway for a front-wheel drive equipped with SKYACTIV manual transmis- sion.
