Today's guest is Curtis Stout, the founder and director of Project 117, a nonprofit organization that has built a school in Haiti for children who have no access to education due to their age or circumstances. Curtis is a remarkable individual who has been moved by his faith to provide a wonderful opportunity for dozens of children, and his story is one that is both motivating and inspiring. Having no experience running a nonprofit, he took huge steps towards founding Project 117 and through the help of some close friends, made a huge impact in the lives of Haitian children.
What follows is the interview I conducted with Curtis regarding the creation and success of Project 117:
Question 1: What was the moment you realized that Project 117 was really what you wanted to do? When did you know that you wanted to start a nonprofit organization?
Curtis: "There were a lot of little signs along the way that this was something I might get into eventually, but that pivotal moment was when I was working this really crappy factory job. It was March of 2011, about 6 months after I returned home from a 9-month trip to Haiti. Anyway, it was early in the morning and I was working this job, and I just had this thought, "What am I doing? I mean, what am I doing at this machine? I hate this job. " I knew it was temporary, but it was one of those moments when I realized that I didn't have a moment to waste.
Before that, I was constantly sharing the story of children that had been left behind in Haiti, and there were plenty of people that were supporting me to start a school. But overall, it was really that moment at the factory.
Question 2: How did the idea first start to grow? Who was involved?
Curtis: "There were some different people that really started to encourage me to take some steps in this direction. My uncle has been a mentor of mine and a father figure, and he really encouraged me. There was a night at a church gathering when he announced to everyone that I was going to do this, and when he made that announcement, this was before my "aha" moment at the factory. It was one of those moments that kicked me in the butt.
So there were little moments like that where the idea really started to grow. But really after my factory moment, I asked a local art teacher that was about to retire to go and have lunch with me. And she was one of the people who had been to Haiti before and I knew we were both passionate about the same things. That was the first meeting where the idea started to take form. From there, we brought on another lady and she added her husband. Then we had another guy come on from the church. Then we started doing vision casting. And it just snowballed from there on."
Question 3: As it began to take shape, were there moments when you doubted the future success of the business? If so, how did you combat these fears?
Curtis: "I had multiple moments along the way, really like the first two years of our process...Before the school started, I had a number of moments where I wondered if I was the right person to lead the ministry, to lead the nonprofit. There were times where I would walk away from a board meeting or fundraising meeting just thinking, "What am I doing? How have I found myself here? Am I equipped to do this? Do I have the right skills and abilities?
I think whenever you take a step of faith, or try something new or challenging, you have those moments of doubt that follow, and you have to kind of dig a little deeper and figure out who you really are and whether you're really committed or not. For me, it was really through prayer and through surrendering the success of the organization to God. You know, I have a strong faith and those beliefs are a very strong guide for my life. How I kept grounded was by saying, "If God wants this to happen, it will happen."
Another big part is just having what I like to call "Truth Tellers" in your life. Those are people and mentors that will speak into the doubts you are having and encourage you to not back down. There were moments early on when I was very sheepish, especially when it came to fundraising, where I just had to have some people tell me that I was wobbling around. They told me to commit and step forward. So you definitely need people like that in your life."
Curtis: "My uncle was certainly a mentor, but I've also had different mentors. Really some of the people that I first asked for money became mentors for me. What I found out was that the people who have large amounts money have that money for a reason. They're very smart, they're hard workers, they're intelligent, they have great experiences. Two or three of our top donors became my mentors because we developed a relationship outside of them simply reaching into their pockets and donating dollars.
But also, the main people that have become mentors for me are those I've worked with in a local church. Before I started Project 117, I was also working part-time at a local nonprofit. I gained a lot of great experiences through those positions."
Question 5: How do you manage growth while also maintaining sustainability?
But it comes back to being relational. A big deal for us lately has been to challenge ourselves to grow outside of our comfort zone. Our big vision is to build multiple schools in Haiti, and even start schools in countries all around the world. So, we can't just stay local. We have to challenge ourselves and grow our awareness and our funding. I think growth is very intentional. You can't grow without taking strategic steps towards legitimate growth. One of the things we've done recently was to create a Five-Year Plan that describes four main goals we need to accomplish to build our second school within five years. And then within each of those main goals, we have different measurable objectives. So the key to growth is to have small targets that help you get to the big goal."
Question 6: For those motivated to start a nonprofit or a business that makes an impact but are scared to begin, what advice would you give them?
Curtis: "At the risk of just making it too simple...Just take one step. That's what you have to do. And what that step is might be different depending on what you are wanting to do or who you are as an individual. So, for me, it was just reaching out to the art teacher and talking about the organization. So it all comes back to just taking the first step and inviting people to go with you along the way. I think you need to develop a clear vision, but you have to start first. You can't get stuck in the idea of doing something."
Question 7: What challenges have you experienced since starting Project 117? And how did you approach them? Were there any big failures?
Curtis: "Yeah, there have been big failures. But some of the biggest challenges have been the challenges that arise from people. There have been really difficult moments when you have to ask someone not to be a part of what you are doing. Or there have been challenges in Haiti. For example. there was a lot of gang activity in our area, or just stuff going on that I heard about that made me question whether this was the right thing to do. So it was really just trying to decide what the right time was to act for us, for the organization. There have been a lot of challenges in regards to the organization.
But the biggest thing is just the people. Getting everyone on the same page, getting everyone plugged in in the right way, trying to figure out how to distribute responsibility without micromanaging. That's something I struggled with early on. Being a visionary-type person, you can have a very clear vision for something and it can be very personal for you, and the danger can be that you will hold it too tight in your hands and not let others run with it. That was definitely something that I struggled with early on...Just equipping other people to run with the vision. That's certainly been it.
And something that I've learned is that not everyone is going to run after this for twenty years like I expect myself to do. There are going to be multiple people who are just in this for a short period. One of the couples that we started this with ended up going into a nonprofit that they've started, which is a wonderful thing. But in the midst of that, you're bummed because you're losing a group that shared in the vision with you.
One of our bigger failures was one of our first fundraisers. At the time, we decided to go after this huge $200k fundraiser for our biggest building. We determined those plans as a Board of Directors and started taking the steps, but the fundraiser was just a complete flop. We didn't have the right donor base at the time, we didn't have the right training, I wasn't educated enough as a leader to help my team...and I'm still learning. But what I've really found out is that it's really important to make sure that the plan isn't just my plan. It has to be the right next step for the organization, and how you achieve that next step isn't necessarily one specific step. I believe there are multiple ways to achieve a specific goal."
Question 8: Talk about the importance of your team. How did you bring them together? Were they all immediately receptive to the idea?
Curtis: "Early on, it was those people that were very close with Haiti that I had gone on trips with through my church. They were passionate about Haiti and connected to me through my church. After that, we did a Vision Call Night where we invited about 20 people, and we landed on about 8 people that were on the founding Board of Directors. So, early on it was friends and family that were passionate about Haiti.
For Project 117, we do a 2-year term for our board members. After that initial term, we saw some of those initial people leave. At that time, our needs had changed as an organization, and the future we've gone through this process, the more intentional we've become about how we select our board members. We've found that we search for people who have different networks so that it allows us to grow our base even larger. You should really just look for your "Shakers and Movers". There's that adage that says, "Show me your friends and I'll show you future". Just look for people are successful, passionate, and of high character, and you will become like them. Then, through that process, your organization will become like them.
Then one other thing that I've learned is that not everyone needs to be a board member. Not everyone needs to go on a trip. Everyone has their place, and as a leader it is really important for me to help people discover where they fit within our organization. For me, that's been a big deal in the past year....just recognizing talents and passions, and then helping those people use those talents. Something that we've developed within our school is what we're calling a "Leadership Pipeline" where we develop leaders from within to move up our ladder. The beauty of this is that these people understand the culture of our organization and the culture of our school, and then they can move into a new position within our school. We then help them develop the talents and skills and abilities. Then we can give other people opportunities."
Questions 9: Are there any books that have changed your perspective and helped you along the way?
Curtis: "One book that has been great towards Project 117 was The Advantage by Patrick Lencioni. This is an awesome book on organizational health. We actually used a lot of information from this book in our Board Member retreat back in December, and I've been touching on this book throughout the last year, just pulling different points from it. I believe you have to have a healthy team of people, and you have to really know what your core values are if you're going to stay consistent as you continue to develop and grow towards the future.
A book about Haiti that I've found really inspiring is called "Mountains Beyond Mountains". It's about Dr. Paul Farmer, who started a health organization in Haiti in the same region where Project 117 started. Just reading about his stories and the passion he had for the oppressed and the poor, and his vision for inspiring the poor to overcome their challenges...all of that has been really inspiring for me. Additionally, just reading about a guy that started a small organization that grew to be a huge international group. I found that really inspiring.
A really great spiritual book that I've read recently is called The Return of the Prodigal Son. It was just one of the most impactful books on faith that I've ever read. It really struck a cord with me because it spoke to this view of God as a father, and that really spoke with me because I lost my father in middle school. So this idea of God as a father who cares and provides regardless if you're chasing the things of the world or if you're struggling with other things, God's there and in the midst of your circumstance. So, that was a great spiritual guiding book for me."
Question 10: What's one thing that you still struggle with as a leader of Project 117?
Curtis: "Surrendering responsibility. One of my strengths is responsibility. I tend to be a person that owns what I do. I give all of myself to my goals. On one hand, that's health trait to possess because I take initiative and own responsibility, but at the same time, too much of a good thing can be bad. Sometimes I put too much responsibility of performance or the results of others on my shoulders. So definitely surrendering responsibility to other people or to God or to whatever it is."
Question 11: How do you define success?
Curtis: "For me, it's pretty simple. It's living the story that I was created to tell. I am very passionate about his idea that everyone was created on purpose and for a purpose. Everyone has a unique story to tell. I define my own success as stepping into the story that God has prepared for me or that's laid out before me for that day. I don't quantify it by money or even the number of schools that I'll help build one day or the number of kids I have...I don't define it by that. It's much broader for me, I guess."
Question 12: What is the one thing you would do differently? Would you change anything? Or do you see the mistakes you've made as learning opportunities?
Curtis: "I tend to resonate with the latter part of that question. I see myself as someone who can learn from any experience, whether it's failure or success, so there's not a lot that I would change. There are things that I need to do differently moving forward, and there are definitely things that I've learned from in the past. Looking back, one of the things that I wish I would have done earlier was distribute responsibility to other people. And then also just learning how to follow up with people based on who they are and how they like to interact. That's a big challenge: treating each person a little bit differently."
End of Interview.
As you can see, Curtis Stout is an inspiring and life-changing individual who exudes both passion and integrity. I learned a lot from this interview about channeling your passion and motivation into a achievable set of goals, but more importantly I learned that with hard work and the right people around you, it's possible to make a lasting impact in the lives of others. Curtis has helped educate dozens of children, and his longterm goals include hundreds of other children around the world. I look forward to watching him grow his organization, and I'm excited to help out in any way that I can.

I was inspired to make this piece by the beautiful Celtic and Viking brooches. The simple mechanics of this style of fastening makes it suitable to use as a brooch or scarf, kilt or hat pin. The last image in the sequence shows you how to wear it.
I have made the brooch with very thick sterling silver wire to form the shape, which I have hand forged and then hammered, this makes the structure very strong. The pin is made from thick 2mm wire, which I have filed and sanded into a point. I have created a layered effect on the hinge of the pin, by hammering the end, so that it splays outwards, then rolling it on itself, so that it overlaps. The thick wire of the pin makes this brooch unsuitable for delicate fabrics. It is perfect for chunky knits!
I have oxidised this piece.
The brooch measures 2" across and 2 1/4" tall and the pin is 3 1/2" long.
This item comes in a jewellery box.

Modelling of textile reinforced composite barriers against electromagnetic radiations
Tutor / director / avaluadorVojtěch, Lukáš; Ruiz Boqué, Sílvia
Tipus de documentProjecte Final de Màster Oficial
Condicions d'accésAccés obert
The advent of conductive textiles has allowed the design of much more lightweight and cheaper electromagnetic barriers than used to be with wire mesh and compact materials. Although nowadays it is possible to calculate the Shielding Effectiveness (SE) for wire mesh and compact shields, in case of conductive textiles the scenario becomes more complex. The aim of this work is to find a mathematical model dependent on frequency to determine the Shielding Effectiveness (SE) of several composite materials. Later on, the SE will be found for various sandwich structures of several layers using the previous composite materials and insulation layers between them. This work is structured in 5 chapters. The first chapter shows an introduction to several concepts in the field of electromagnetic interferences. Describes what is EMC, EMS and EMI, defines the most important sources of interferences, how they are coupled into another electronic circuit and the resulting consequences for health of exposure to high frequency electromagnetic fields. Chapter 2 introduces the basic shielding theory concepts and how to calculate the shielding effectiveness. Afterwards, Chapter 3 describes three methods to calculate the shielding effectiveness of different materials such as wire mesh, compact materials and composite textiles. Later on, Chapter 4 characterizes three conductive textile samples that will be used to validate the models described in Chapter 3. Finally, Chapter 5 shows a comparison between the experimental results obtained from measuring the shielding effectiveness of the three samples and the results obtained from modelling the samples with the three techniques in a Matlab environment. The accomplishment of this work has allowed carrying out a technical paper submitted to Radioengineering Journal. The technical paper is enclosed in this document as Annex A.

(California Drought Action Pack) The drought in California is a real challenge to gardeners and to the wildlife that depends increasingly on us for survival. We want to help.
This package consists of Salvias, Agastache, Kniphofia, Asclepias and other wildlife-friendly & drought resistant plants that will grow, bloom and be happy in dry gardens. We will personally select three each of four different plants, taking into account your particular climate and location. These are some of our top sellers, offered as a discounted group. We can't promise any specific plant, but you'll be excited when you unpack your box!
We're all concerned about the declining habitats and food sources for hummingbirds, butterflies and bees - and by planting these in your garden you will be doing a great service to our animal friends that being stressed by the lack of flowers. Because of the large number of suitable varieties we grow, we'll plan to send along a balanced, long blooming mix. You can plant now and enjoy these beauties for years to come, even if the drought continues.
Some of the plants
We also include a detailed Planting Guide, to insure your success.
We offer this for the Fall planting season only with free shipping anywhere in California. You can choose your desired shipping date during checkout.
Please let us know in the "Customer Notes" section of the shopping cart if you have any color preferences or blooming season restrictions. We guarantee to pick out some of the very best drought tolerant varieties we grow for you. Please, this is for California residents only.
(Kudos Coral Hybrid Anise Hyssop) Dense plumes of deep coral flowers are accented by mid-green foliage in this heat- and drought-tolerant favorite of pollinators. Kudos Coral is a compact, clumping, semi-dwarf variety.
Agastaches are ideal companion plants for Salvias and beneficial choices for attracting butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds. Similar to so many members of the mint family (Lamiaceae) -- such as sages -- they thrive in low-fertility soils, but need excellent drainage.
Kudos Coral is a fragrant, long-blooming Agastache developed by Oregon's Terra Nova Nurseries.
Most Agastaches are native to the Southwest and Northern Mexico. These are the most heat- and drought-tolerant members of the genus. In contrast, some species -- such as the Asian Agastache rugosa -- can handle more moisture and colder winters. This one does well in USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 5.
By crossing Southwestern species with varieties of Agastache rugosa, you gain the best of both types as in the Kudos Series. Kudos Agastaches are more compact, floriferous, long flowering and weather-resistant than most Agastaches. Their non-browning calyces create long-lasting color that endures even when blossoms are gone.
(Kudos Mandarin Hybrid Anise Hyssop) Dense plumes of creamy orange flowers are accented by deep green foliage in this heat- and drought-tolerant favorite of pollinators. Kudos Mandarin is a compact, clumping, semi-dwarf variety.
Agastaches are ideal companion plants for Salvias and beneficial choices for attracting butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds. Similar to so many members of the mint family (Lamiaceae) -- such as sages -- they thrive in low-fertility soils, but need excellent drainage.
Kudos Mandarin is a fragrant, long-blooming Agastache developed by Oregon's Terra Nova Nurseries.
Most Agastaches are native to the Southwest and Northern Mexico. These are the most heat- and drought-tolerant members of the genus. In contrast, some species -- such as the Asian Agastache rugosa -- can handle more moisture and colder winters.
By crossing Southwestern species with varieties of Agastache rugosa, you gain the best of both types as in the Kudos Series. This one grows well in USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 5. Kudos Agastaches are more tidy and upright, floriferous, long flowering and weather-resistant than most Agastaches. Their non-browning calyces create long-lasting color that endures even when blossoms are gone.
(Kudos Yellow Hybrid Anise Hyssop) Flowers by the Sea is one of the first nurseries nationwide to grow Agastache x 'Kudos Yellow'. This is one of the best deep yellow Agastaches we've found, due to its large, dense flower spikes and bushy, upright form.
Kudos Yellow Hybrid Anise Hyssop is long blooming. It has lance-shaped, mid-green leaves and green calyxes that don't turn brown when the flowers die. As its common name implies, this sage has a licorice-like fragrance.
Most Agastaches are Southwestern and Mexican types known for resisting heat and drought. Cross these species with the Asian Agastache rugosa -- as Oregon's Terra Nova Nurseries has done in its Kudos series -- and you get vigorous, cold tolerant varieties that can handle more moisture. This one also has good resistance to downy mildew.
Kudos Yellow is made for full sun. Similar to so many members of the mint family (Lamiaceae) -- such as sages -- it thrives in low-fertility soils, but needs excellent drainage. It is an ideal companion plant for sages and a beneficial choice for attracting butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds. Deer just walk on by.
(Orange Texas Firecracker) Hummingbirds and butterflies will thank you with frequent visits if you add this long-blooming plant to your wildlife garden. Its clear, pumpkin-orange trumpet-type flowers with long, narrow petals are wells of delicious nectar.
Orange Texas Firecracker is a subshrub, which means that it combines soft, herbaceous perennial foliage with some woodiness. It has slender, lance-shaped, dark green leaves. Trim it back in late winter for better form and fuller spring growth.
Although related to the Bears Breeches genus (Acanthus), Orange Texas Firecracker lacks the thorny sepals of those plants. Anisacanthus is Greek for "without thorns" and quadrifidus refers to the four petals of its flower. The phrase var. Wrightii means that this is a variation of the native Texas species named for American botanist Charles Wright (1811-1885). Beginning in 1837, Wright spent 15 years collecting extensively in Texas.
This is a mid-height, heat-tolerant species that loves full sun. Orange Texas Firecracker resists drought, but thrives with average watering based on local conditions. For pyrotechnical color in the garden, mix it with the deep orange flowers of Texas Firecracker (Anisacanthus wrightii) and the crimson blossoms of Red Texas Firecracker ( Anisacanthus wrightii 'Select Red').
Don't worry about deer; this plant isn't to their taste.
(Swan Plant) Elegant white flowers with purple inner markings change into lime green-to-gold, balloon-shaped seedpods in this South African milkweed that Monarch butterflies love. The seedpods are 2 to 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
Although most people refer to Swan Plant scientifically as Asclepias physocarpa, it was renamed in 2001 as Gomphocarpus physocarpus to indicate that it is an African milkweed.
It's the graceful flowers on long, slender stalks that give Swan Plant its name. However, it's also commonly called Goose Plant and -- for obvious reasons -- Balloon Plant.
Swan plant is a good back row choice for borders and flowerbeds, because it grows tall. It has long, narrow, lance-shaped leaves on which Monarch (Danaus plexippus), Queen (Danaus gilippus) and Soldier (Danaus eresimus) lay their eggs.
Milkweeds are the only plants that Monarch caterpillars will eat. The roughness of fuzzy milkweed foliage makes it easier for eggs and chrysalises to cling to the plants. Monarch caterpillars consume powerful chemicals in the leaves protecting them as babies and adults against predators for whom the chemicals are toxic. Perhaps it is these chemicals that make deer avoid the plant.
Unlike Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca), this plant doesn't have a taproot. This means that it is easier to control the plant's spread.
Swan Plant does well in a variety of average garden soils, requires full sun and -- similar to other forms of the species -- tolerates heat. Although it loves ample water, average watering based on local conditions is sufficient.
While it is perennial to regions with warm winter climates, Swan Plant is a good annual for areas with cold winters. You can overwinter it in a pot indoors in a cool, sunny location. Cut back the foliage first.
(Showy Milkweed) Milkweeds (Asclepias spp. ) are must-have, nectar-rich plants in the butterfly garden. They're the only genus on which the endangered Monarch butterfly lays eggs. It is urgent that we offer this pretty, fragrant wildflower.
In spring 2013, The New York Times reported a precipitous decline in the Monarch butterfly migration due to various causes, including North America's plummeting supply of Milkweed. The species normally grows wild in agricultural fields. However, the increasing use of seed genetically modified to withstand herbicides has eliminated at least 120 million acres of Monarch habitat, according to The New York Times.
Backyard gardeners can help reverse this trend by growing plants, such as Showy Milkweed, which keep the Monarch migration alive and feed other species of butterflies as well.
Butterflies need flowers on which they can easily perch while sipping nectar. Plants with globe-shaped flower heads, such as those of Milkweeds, meet this need. The roughness of Showy Milkweed's long, fuzzy, gray-green leaves make it easy for eggs and chrysalises to connect. Powerful chemicals in the foliage are consumed by Monarch caterpillars and make them off limits -- as babies and adult butterflies -- to predators that can't consume those substances.
Showy Milkweed features globes of tiny, star-shaped flowers that are pale, creamy pink. It isn't very big for such a powerful plant, growing only 24 to 36 inches tall and 24 inches wide. Although it can tolerate a bit of partial shade, this plant prefers full sun. It likes droughty conditions as well as gravelly ground. Any kind of soil will do as long as it drains well.
This cold-tolerant species grows well in USDA Zones 4 to 9 where it looks pretty in perennial borders or massed with other Lepidoptera favorites in butterfly gardens. It is particularly well adapted to dry gardens. Milkweeds are native to a large swath of North America, so they are also good choices for native gardens.
To control the plant's tendency to naturalize in parts of the yard where you don't want to grow it, simply snip off the seedpods before they ripen and pop open.
IMPORTANT NOTE: What you will recieve is a very well established root system. The foliege will not be cosmetically perfect, and it is only in the second year, once planted out in the ground, that this species will attain its full potential. In the wild this species often exhibits summer dormancy. There is generally very little above ground activity in the year in which this is planted.
(Mango Popsicle Hot Poker) This genus has become very popular in the last few years - for good reason. They feed hummingbirds & honeybees, and attract butterflies. And this superior variety from Oregon's TerraNova Nurseries is compact, free blooming and amazingly hardy.
In 2011 and 2012 we grew dozens of the new Kniphofia varieties, and only a few stood out from the pack. This is absolutely our favorite. One of our nursery friends in Portland, Oregon said that it continued to bloom through January, even though the foliage was covered with a foot of snow.
We don't grow many non-Salvias, and when we do it has to be special. This is one of those very, very good new plants. A must have plant.
(Papaya Popsicle Hot Poker) Terra Nova Nursery's Popsicle Series of dwarf Hot Poker perennials are reminiscent of the kind of frozen treats designed to look like rocket ships and fireworks. The blossoms of Papaya Popsicle are a bright orange-red and gold.
Tidy clumps of grassy, green foliage surround Papaya Popsicle's flower spikes. It is a full-sun perennial that appreciates regular watering but is drought resistant. We grow a number of Popsicle Kniphofias and can attest to their super-long bloom time, which keeps butterflies and hummingbirds busy in our gardens.
Aside from being wildlife friendly, this easy-to-grow Hot Poker is cold tolerant and works well in Salvia gardens due to low demand for both water and fertilizer. Sometimes Kniphofias are referred to as Torch Lilies due to their shape as well as their fiery look, which helps light up the landscape -- especially when mixed with hot-colored Salvias.
(Poco Orange Dwarf Hot Poker) Flowers by the Sea is the first U.S. nursery to grow Kniphofia 'Poco Orange' -- a dwarf Hot Poker that is several inches shorter than the Kniphofia 'Mango Popsicle' when in bloom.
Hot Poker is native to southern Africa. Oregon's innovative Terra Nova Nurseries developed both of these hybrids.
Similar to Terra Nova's Popsicle series of Hot Poker plants, the new Poco series features tidy clumping of grassy, green foliage from which bright, long blooming flower spikes arise. This one is especially attractive to hummingbirds and doesn't appeal to deer.
We grow a number of Terra Nova Kniphofias and can attest to their super-long bloom times. All are full-sun perennials that appreciate regular watering yet are drought resistant.
Aside from being wildlife friendly, this easy-to-grow perennial tolerates cold and heat. Poco Orange Dwarf Hot Poker works well in Salvia gardens due to its low demand for both water and fertilizer.
Sometimes Kniphofias are referred to as Torch Lilies due to their shape as well as their fiery look, which helps light up the landscape -- especially when mixed with hot-colored Salvias.
FBTS is growing an increasing number of Salvia companions. Poco Orange, which forms eye-catching groundcover, is one of our favorites.
(Redhot Popsicle Hot Poker) This genus has become very popular in the last few years - for good reason. They feed hummingbirds and butterflies. And this superior variety from Oregon's TerraNova Nurseries is compact, free blooming and amazingly hardy.
In 2011 and 2012 we grew dozens of the new Kniphofia varieties, and only a few stood out from the pack. We love this one for its intensel color that really stands out in a crowd. One of our nursery friends in Portland, Oregon said that it continued to bloom through January, even though the foliage was covered with a foot of snow.
We don't grow many non-Salvias, and when we do it has to be special. This is one of those very, very good new plants. A must have.
(Vicki Romo White Sage) A hybrid of two, top Californian natives, Vicki Romo has foliage very much like that of White Sage (Salvia apiana) and darker lavender flowers than those of Cleveland Sage (Salvia clevelandii).
Vicki Romo is from the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden where it was named after a graduate student intern. It has bigger, more pronounced flowers that bloom from spring into summer and is a bit less fragrant than its parent plants. Similar to White Sage, it can grow up to 5 feet tall. However, unlike both of its smaller parents, Vicki Romo can spread up to 5 feet. This makes it economical as a border screen or tall groundcover.
This heat-resistant, drought-tolerant shrub requires good drainage and full sun. Both parents have a dry-summer/wet-winter range and often grow on rocky, south slopes. Little water is needed once it becomes established.
We love everything about this sage, especially how it attractst honeybees and hummingbirds but not deer.
(Pacific Blue Sage) Whorls of deep lavender-blue flowers contrast brightly against the dark maroon stems of this likely hybrid of Salvia brandegeei and Salvia munzii.
The Santa Barbara Botanic Garden discovered Pacific Blue as a surprise cross near one of its S. brandegeei, a native of Santa Rosa Island in Santa Barbara's Channel Islands as well as Baja, Mexico.
Pacific Blue is a well-branched, vigorous shrub. It tolerates heat and handles drought due to the moisture-conserving, fuzzy white undersides of its fragrant, dark green leaves.
Honeybees and hummingbirds love this long-blooming sage. Pacific Blue even grows in clay soil as long as there is good drainage, such as on a slope. Give it full sun and average watering based on local conditions.
(Wooly Canary Island Sage) The pale magenta, parrot-beak flowers of this sage, supported by deeper magenta bracts, heat up the landscape. But when you get close, it may be the velvety texture of the foliage that makes you sigh.
This fragrant, heat-tolerant Canary Island Sage has dense white hairs covering the underside of its leaves. The hairs help the drought-resistant foliage to conserve moisture. However, Wooly Canary Island Sage appreciates average watering based on your local conditions.
Although a shrub at the warmer end of its USDA cold hardiness range, Wooly Canary Island Sage is an herbaceous perennial in its cooler zones. Either way, it is long blooming.
Due to its height and dramatic good looks, this sage can take center stage in a sunny Salvia garden or act as a tall screen. Honeybees love it.
(Caucasus Sage) This hardy ground cover sage grows 4 to 12 inches tall and 12 inches wide. The velvety white fur of its foliage aids moisture retention. Its soft, royal purple flowers make it stand out. We think this Salvia deserves to spread far and wide.
A tough native of the Caucasus Mountains of central Asia, it survives the freezing temperatures of Zone 5, forming a tight mat that withstands light traffic. It blooms in early summer and again in fall. Plant this beauty in well-drained soil, but don't pamper it; Caucasus Sage grows well in harsh environments.
This is one of the shortest Salvias we grow and makes a fine border edging or rock garden plant. We highly recommend its use as a ground cover, so we offer a discount for larger orders.
Here is a great blog article about this plant.
(Silver Germander Sage) With its compact habit, brilliant silver-white leaves and large, sky blue flowers, this is an outstanding heat-tolerant choice for dry, sunny gardens. We consider this to be one of the finest short ground covers for these conditions.
Grow Silver Germander Sage in full sun and well-drained, loamy soil where you can see it up close. Expect explosive blooming in the summer and fall when the weather warms and settles.
We highly recommend this rarely seen variety of the green-leafed Germander Sage.
(Judean Sage) Native to the mountains of Judea in Israel, this dark violet flowered, perennial sage is unique among the Palestinian Salvias - as a woodland native it grows well in partial shade. It is a tough, drought-resistant plant with deeply cut & hairy foliage which forms impressive mounds of color in the spring and early summer.
Judean Sage thrives in poor yet well-drained soil and doesn't require much water. We have found it to be durable, but it does not tolerate wet, cold winters.
This plant is relatively new to North American horticulture, and will surely become more popular as it's charms become better known.
(Santa Barbara Mexican Bush Sage) This compact Mexican Bush Sage was found in the Santa Barbara garden of Kathiann Brown. It is, without a doubt, the finest short Mexican Bush Sage -- hardy, tough and long blooming. Add drought resistance and dark, rich purple flowers to its list of merits.
This heat-tolerant, full-sun sage makes a fine ground cover for areas large or small. it also looks lovely in perennial borders and containers. Expect plenty of honeybee, hummingbird and butterfly visits.
We suggest cutting Santa Barbara Mexican Bush Sage to the ground in the spring, so the fast growing white furry shoots will start blooming by mid-summer. It will continue blooming until frost, unless you live in a mild climate such as along the Northern California coast where it blooms 12 months a year.
Highly recommended.
(White Mischief Mexican Bush Sage) Profuse white blossoms and true white velvety bracts make the flowers of this South African hybrid a lovely choice for a wedding. In our experience, many of the plants sold as White Mischief are not the real thing. This tough, compact, long blooming sage is.
Although its flowers are white, we've noticed that hummingbirds love this Salvia leucantha, which blooms summer into fall. Butterflies are also partial to it, but luckily deer keep their distance.
Plant this heat-loving herbaceous perennial in full sun and well-drained soil. It is elegant in shrubby borders, large containers and cut-flower gardens.
(Giant Purple Desert Sage) It's best to plant this flamboyant native of the Southwest in spring or summer. However, once established, it tolerates winters from USDA Zones 5 to 9. Purple tubular flowers and burgundy bracts flare up its 10-inch flower spikes like flames on this softly rounded shrub.
Fragrant, drought resistant and heat tolerant, this is a sage that isn't particular about soils as long as they drain well. Give this shrub lots of sunshine and little water for best performance. We have learned by experience that this species grows best where there are definite seasons, and where the winters are not particularly wet. They thrive in Denver, and languish in Los Angeles.
Blue Flame's improbably lush flowers are offset by mid-green foliage. It does well in dry, gravelly gardens as a groundcover, border or pathway edging and is just right for a native garden focusing on the Southwest or a wide variety of American native species.
Expect Blue Flame to grow up to 36 inches tall and 24 inches wide and to flower from summer to fall. Expect to fall in love with it; certainly butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds do. Luckily, deer avoid it.
Thanks for the beautiful photo go to high-altitude plant expert Panayoti Kelaidis, senior curator and director of outreach at Denver Botanic Gardens.
(Dandelion Leaf Sage) Brush or bruise the basal foliage of this Moroccan Salvia and it exudes a citrusy fragrance. Petite and heat tolerant, this is a sturdy, adaptable groundcover.
The late James C. Archibald of the Scottish Rock and Garden Club once described the plant's homeland -- the Atlas Mountains of Morocco -- as being "high, barren" and "snow-streaked." He collected specimens there in 1962 and noted that the plant retains its dwarf-like height better in dry, poor, gravelly soil.
Taraxacifolia refers to the dandelion-like appearance of the plant's foliage. However, this is a non-invasive sage. Forming tight, low rosettes that spread gently, the gray-green, lyre-shaped leaves are heavily indented. The foot-tall spikes of large, soft, pink flowers bloom from summer into fall.
This perennial withstands light foot traffic, which is useful in a groundcover. Heat resistant and drought tolerant, it thrives in full sun and dry gardens with well-drained soil. However, it can also handle average watering based on local conditions. Dandelion Leaf Sage grows well in USDA Zones 7 to 11 where it is evergreen down to 20 degrees F and hardy to 10 degrees F if winter mulched.
We like this easy-to-grow, uncommon sage and are glad that deer do not.
(Celestial Blue Sage) Fast growing and adaptable, this sage is a chance hybrid between Cleveland Sage (Salvia clevelandii) -- also called California Blue Sage -- and California Rose Sage (Salvia pachyphylla). It may also be related to California Purple Sage (Salvia leucophylla).
Celestial Blue has lovely royal blue flowers and purple bracts. Sun-loving, heat tolerant and drought resistant, it was discovered at Las Pilitas Native Plant Nursery in Southern California.
This fragrant sage blooms and blooms throughout the heat of summer. Tolerant of everything but wet feet during summer, it withstands winter temperatures as low as 10 degrees F for a short time as well as lows in the 20-degree range for days.
Use this pretty plant in tough soils, on banks and in areas where watering is difficult or undesirable. Butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds love it, but deer leave it alone. This cultivar is one of the best Salvias for cut-flower arrangements.
(Gayle Nielson Hybrid Sage) Whorl-like clusters of violet-blue flowers on slender stems as well as its height and width indicate that Gayle Nielson Hybrid Sage is related to some form of Salvia clevelandii.
However, the rest of this graceful plant's parentage is uncertain. It was collected in the Tucson, Arizona, garden of Carl and Gayle Nielson where a number of California native sages were growing. Other possible parent species include Salvia dorrii and Salvia mohavensis. To increase the sense of mystery surrounding this tough plant, it is sometimes referred to as either Carl Nielson Hybrid Sage or Salvia x 'Trident'.
Reddish-purple bracts support the delicate-looking flowers, which bloom winter into spring. The fragrant, olive-green leaves are larger than those of Salvia clevelandii.
Similar to most California native sages, this shrub is heat and drought tolerant. It grows well in USDA Zones 8 to 9 and, despite its desert connections, is adaptable to cooler coastal life. Whereas honeybees and hummingbirds enjoy its nectar, deer leave it alone.
Gayle Nielson Hybrid Sage likes full sun and needs little summer watering after becoming established. Plant it in soil with excellent drainage. Although this is a full-sun plant, it appreciates a bit of partial shade. In dry or native landscapes, it works well as a screen, shrub border or tall groundcover.
Hummingbirds love Salvia (sage) nectar and are attracted to it by the bright colors of tubular sage blossoms. In particular, these little whirlybirds can easily spot flowers in the red spectrum, which is prevalent among sages. Here are some hummingbird gardening tips.
Fragrance as well as color attracts butterflies. However, they don't have noses. Instead, butterflies smell and taste with their antennas and feet. Here are some ways to attract them:
If you live in suburbs or rural areas where deer plunder gardens, Salvias (sages) can be part of your plan for discouraging these hungry visitors. Here are some tips.
Xeric plants are excellent for water conservation. They grow well in dry gardens with little to no supplemental watering once established. In fact, overwatering can harm these plants, which are native to dry environments such as deserts and chaparral.
At Flowers by the Sea, we identify all xeric plants with a blue plant marker that warns against overwatering. Here are some tips for growing and understanding our xeric, or blue tag, plants:
1) In a humid region, you may find it difficult to grow plants native to semi-arid and arid environments. Yet xeric plants may succeed if you have a persistently dry area, such as under a roof overhang or in the shelter of a tree.
2) Xeric plants are excellent for locations far from garden hoses, such as along sidewalks -- areas often referred to as "hellstrips."
3) Shipping is hard on xeric plants, which suffer from confinement in small containers as well as boxes. You may see some mold, spots on leaves or withered foliage when they arrive. But xeric plants perk up with proper care while hardening off in partial shade before planting.
4) When amending soil before planting, remember that xeric plants not only need excellent drainage but also flower better in low fertility soil. Fertilize sparingly and use a mix with more phosphorous than nitrogen to encourage flowering and discourage lax overgrowth of foliage.
5) Organic matter, such as compost, is an excellent soil amendment for xeric plants, because it keeps their roots healthy by improving aeration and drainage.
6) When your xeric plants are established, water infrequently to encourage deep root growth and to avoid fungal problems. However, it's a good idea to gently spray dust off foliage about once a week.

Having spent a spur-of-the-moment weekend in New York (more on that later), I am in no way ready for monday to come this soon. Powerless over such matters, however, we must press onward, but before delving into everything this soon in the day, let's take the usual quick look back at the week before.
It continued in the stressful vein that's marked this political season, as a dangerous, con artist named Donald Trump fell down in the first debate, and then went on to have a disastrous week as a year of his tax returns turned up and revealed he lost over $900 million in a single year (great business skill, just what we need as a leader).

Okay, at first I thought the whole Obama White House vs. Fox News was just some childish politicos being, well, childish.
But, the more I think about it, the more troubling it becomes.
Think back to earlier this year when veteran White House reporter Helen Thomas spoke out against the Obama media machine. She talked about Obama's efforts to actually control the media.
"Nixon didn't try to do that," Thomas said. "They couldn't control (the media). They didn't try.
"What the hell do they think we are, puppets?" Thomas said. "They're supposed to stay out of our business. They are our public servants. We pay them."
Thomas exposed a situation in which the White House had given a Huffington Post blogger a list of questions he could ask in exchange for allowing him into the press conferences.
She also expressed her distaste of a situation in which the White House was planting questions at town hall meetings.
Then, we got the opening skirmish in the battle between the White House and Fox News. We've got White House Communications Director Anita Dunn saying that Fox News is an "arm of the Republican Party."
That was quickly followed by Rahm Emanuel saying, "[Fox News] is not a news organization so much as it has a perspective," and David Axelrod encouraging other news organization to ostracize Fox News. This could include excluding Fox from pooled media footage, which would put even further distance between Fox and the President.
Now, we've actually got the White House bragging about how they manipulated media coverage during the campaign.
The arrogance of all of this is astounding. The President of the United States is actively having his minions discredit and attempt to silence his critics. So much for his oath to uphold this constitution (which, in case he's forgotten, does include a right to a free press).
Only the "cooperative" networks that air the requisite amount positive Obama stories are allowed access to the almighty Obama.
This is scary. What kind of governments and leaders exert that kind of control over the media?
Only the bad ones. The really bad ones.
I'm having scary flashbacks to high school history class.

MELBOURNE Victory secured a comfortable 3-0 win over state league side Hume City this afternoon.
Jesse Makarounas opened the scoring after 11 minutes before Francesco Stella and Cris Cristaldo rounded out the win in the second half at John Ilhan Memorial Resrve in Broadmeadows.
The positives were Adama Traore and Gui Finkler's first hit-outs of pre-season after returning from injury while Mitch Nichols also had an impressive debut.
Victory was missing Andrew Nabbout and Connor Pain through injury, while Archie Thomspon, Mark Milligan (Australia) and Kosta Barbarouses (New Zealand) away on international duty.
James Jeggo sat alongside captain Leigh Broxham as the holding midfielders with Jesse Makarounas and Nichols playing further advanced while Stella and Cristaldo filled the wing positions.
Victory didn't take long to capitalise from its slick passing game with Nichols got to the by-line before cutting back for Makarounas who slotted home the opener from close range.
Stella headed home the second four minutes into the second half half after a good cross from Cristaldo.
And the youth team player got on the scoresheet six minutes from time when triallist Anthony Proia delivered a cross which Cristaldo controlled before slotting home.
Traore played the opening half before he was replaced at left back by Scott Galloway while Finkler came on in the 73rd minute for Nichols.

RAID - deleted RAID array, Windows 7 ok but I have questions
Hi all,
My RAID 1 (I think? I have two equal drives that are mirrored) array was causing me a lot of pain. It kept freezing up my system and having me to had to rebuild the RAID too often. After a number of tests and browsing info online, I've decided that the RAID was the culprit of the freezing and BSODs that came once in a while.
Before deleting the RAID array, I went and used the Seagate (my HDDs) .iso file and used their diagnostic tool to check the drives. I did a long test of one of the HDD (Device 1) and it passed. I deduced that this was at least a good drive. I didn't do a long test for the other HDD (Device 0). But with both, after a short test, both passed.
I then went into the RAID manager (DOS-looking screen before Windows starts) and then 'reverted' Device 1 to non-raid. Then decided to choose 'delete RAID setup' for the Device 0. All good so far. I rebooted and Windows actually started fine. This is where I'm at right now as I type this. No freezing so far!!!
What I wanted to know is how do I find out which HDD Windows is booting off from? Is there a command line I can use in command prompt window in DOS mode to find out this info? It'd be great to know that I'm not on Device 0 since I haven't done a Seagate diagnostic long test on that one.
Also, I'd ideally want to have the second (Device 0) HDD formatted so that I can leave it in my tower and use it as an external HDD with Syncback. This is the closest thing I can have to RAID and I'm perfectly happy if I can get that setup since I'm done school and don't do any heavy software and intense workload on my system that I'm risking a lot to lose. Is this even possible? Windows lists both disk drives in the device manager but only one drive (C under 'My Computer'.
So far no freezing!!! Before when RAID 0 was still on my system, I'd be frozen three times by now.
If anyone has any feedback about this, I'd much appreciate it.
My system stats:
- Windows Home Premium, full retail 64 bit
- age of system is approximately 8 months
- haven't formatted system since new install
- Gigabyte motherboard

You can do into Disk Management and it will tell you which drive is used for booting. It will say it is active.
I am confused as to one part. You say you want to leave the second drive in your computer, but use it as an external. You can use one as your main drive, and use the other for backup...however a good backup process involves a drive that isn't readily available all the time. That being said, something like SyncToy from Microsoft will allow you to choose folders and on a schedule or manually, copy them to the second drive. I use this on my wife's laptop to keep her photos backed up to our server.
RAID has no place on a desktop system, so you are better off without it. But to get started, just go into Disk Management to see how your drives are configured now. Post a screenshot if need be.
|My System Specs
|20 Apr 2012
Thanks for the tips.
I know I wasn't too clear on some parts. In regards to the "leave the second drive in my computer but use it as external..." I meant use it as backup. I do have another physically external drive that I plug in with USB as a second backup. But I wanted this backup drive inside my computer for immediate kind of backup as well, if that makes sense.
Just out of curiosity.. you mentioned that RAID has no place on a desktop. If it gives problems with desktops, what do people usually use it for? Mostly for servers? It did cause me a lot of grief, so that is the advice I'd give to anyone else with RAID on their desktops. Don't do it!!!
Thanks again.

It is mostly for servers and multi-user workstations. RAID0 promised all kinds of performance, but never delivered in real world usage. RAID1 is great for what it does, but it is not a backup, and it can have some performance hits. RAID5 rocks, but it is overkill for a desktop. It's an awesome setup for a server, especially when you add plenty of discs.
|My System Specs

This is good to know. I was afraid I was losing out on something when I deleted the RAID array but it's good to know that it wasn't a good idea in the first place.

You aren't missing a thing. In fact, you are gaining, because you have the second drive to use now.

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
RAID 1 (mirroring) is very useful in a desktop if you know how to use it. I've got 2 2TB drives mirrored that have many hours of family videos, photo's, documents where if one drive goes bad I don't lose anything. True, it isn't backup as the power supply could take out both drives but as I've run a computer store for 18 years and have only seen 2 systems where this has happened I'm not that concerned about it. Where I live our power is pretty stable. I've also have a RAID 1 on my business "server" which has lost 3 drives over 12 years but I've always been able to pop in a new drive and rebuild the array. And, I am using another Raid 1 on my home business system. I'm using a Nvidia, Intel, and AMD raid solution on the three and the Intel Raid 1 is by far the best as far as rebuilding an array goes.

Bach Remix
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
That's probably the best with the way you were trying to go... Its just it doesn't mix well with Bach. At all. Its alright still.
Thank you for your comment first of all.
Actually, I made this song in music class and we had to make the 'most creative' music we could using bach, so it shouldn't really mix you see....
A classic song's remix does not have to be classic remember!
Thx anyways.
Out of Bounds
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
Its pretty good before the baseline comes in. Then it just falls apart and sounds really, really, childish. You should also find another keyboard tone at 0:28 Its just painfully bad. If I were you I'd scratch everything after that and and start anew.
But otherwise good intro to your intro.

Yesterday there was news that the Star Wars spin-off movie had lost its writer, with Gary Whitta stepping down from the project despite having completed a first draft screenplay.
Now it seems that Disney is looking to move fast to replace him, with Slashfilm reporting that Simon Kinberg will be coming aboard to pen a new version of the script.
Kinberg was one of the first writers brought on board by the studio to take the franchise forward, and was the creative force behind recent animated series, Star Wars Rebels.
It has yet to be made clear just how he will fit into the studio's feature film plans, but it had been speculated that Kinberg would be responsible for writing the script for Josh Trank's spin-off film.
That may still be the case, but in the meantime it seems that Kinberg will be working alongside Gareth Edwards on the first Star Wars spin-off.
Nothing official has been confirmed by the studio as yet, but they will want the script rectified as soon as possible, ahead of the film's projected release date in December 2016.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Normandy. It is derived from when the family having lived at Tremblay, in Normandy.
Tremblau Early Origins
Normandy (French: Normandie), the former Duchy of Normandy, where the family held a family seat since early times.
Tremblau Spelling Variations
Tremblau Spelling Variations
History has changed the spelling of most surnames. During the early development of the French language in the Middle Ages, a person gave his version of his name, phonetically, to a scribe, a priest, or a recorder. Some variables were adopted by different branches of the family name. Hence, there spelling variations of the name Tremblau, some of which include Tremblay, Tremblai, Tremblaie, Tremblé, Tremblés, Tremblée, Tremblait, Tremblett, Tremblais, Tremblaies, Tremley and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
In 1643, 109 years after the first landings by Cartier, there were only about 300 people in Quebec, in 1663 there were only 500, 2,000 migrants arrived during the next decade. Early marriage was desperately encouraged amongst the immigrants. Youths of 18 took fourteen-year-old girls for their wives. The fur trade was developed and attracted migrants, both noble and commoner from France. 15,000 explorers left Montreal in the late 17th and 18th centuries. Migration from France to New France or Quebec as it was now more popularly called, continued from France until it fell in 1759. By 1675, there were 7000 French in Quebec. By the same year the Acadian presence in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island had reached 500. In 1755, 10,000 French Acadians refused to take an oath of allegiance to England and were deported to Louisiana. Meanwhile, in Quebec, the French race flourished, founding in Lower Canada, one of the two great solitudes which became Canada. Many distinguished contributions have been made by members of this family name Tremblau. It has been prominent in the arts, religion, politics and culture in France and New France. Amongst the settlers in North America with this distinguished name Tremblau were Corney Trembley settled in America in 1764; Jacques Tremblay settled in Québec in 1756; Ulrique Tremblay settled in Québec in 1815; Louis Tremblay settled in Québec in 1751.

Leighlani Red has a tattoo on the back of her left shoulder that reads "Patience." The babe probably has it so that when she gives a dude a lap dance on Leighlani XXX, they remember to resist the urge to bang her brains out until she's finished doing her thing, because she's so hot everybody wants to jump her bones!
LeighlaniXXX is home to one of the hottest, redheaded amateurs you'll ever meet. She's big into geeks, so plenty of her scenes with a guy are reality-themed, usually having the amber-haired amateur rewarding the computer tech for helping her fix something with her computer or website. There are also stripteases followed up by masturbation, as well as a couple gal-on-gal and POV blowjob shoots.
While the content is only half as hot as I make it sound, the amount of action you get is a little on the small side. There are only nine movies and each runs no more than 10 minutes. I wouldn't expect that to improve over time, as the last update was well over a year ago.
The good news is that you can stream and download each movie in a variety of video formats and sizes, all of which are high in quality. One version can be played on your mobile devices, while another offers excellent-quality playback.
There are also nine photo galleries. One of them is a masturbation session, while the other eight were taken at the same time as the movies. You can view them in a slideshow, one a time, or save them in Zip folders. If you go the Zip route, you'll be treated to high-res pics.
Another plus is that you get a ton of bonus content. There are dozens of amateur sites like Redhead Mariah, Ambers Lust and Amazing Anna, as well as sites like Fucking Parties, which focuses on orgies. Other extras include additional movies, a network blog and a Twitter feed.
There's also a short bio page that gives you her measurements, as well as some other stats. It also explains that she's been in about 20 movies if you factor in other sites she's appeared on, as well as mentions that she was pretty vanilla prior to getting into porn.
Leighlani XXX definitely stars one of the hottest redheads I've seen in a long time. However, even counting both that fact and the abundance of extras doesn't make up for the very small amount of content.

A creepy new poster for the reboot of A Nightmare On Elm Street has surfaced, and if you're any kind of Freddy fan you're going to want to check it out. If nothing else you can be guaranteed that Jackie Earle Haley's Freddy is going to scare the crap out of you. Check out the full poster after the jump.
A Nightmare On Elm Street makes its theatrical release on April 30th of this year. Now that we've all seen the last trailer for the movie, does the new Freddy seem more or less terrifying than the original played by Robert Englund? Is the new make-up, CG and all, too much? Or does it add that necessary extra touch?

U.K. Global Video Ends Warner Ban25 Oct, 2002 By: Sam Andrews
LONDON -- The battle between Warner Home Video U.K. and several of Britain's biggest rental dealers over its controversial new rental trading platform saw a victory for the distributor Oct. 15 when Glasgow-based rental video chain Global Video ended its boycott of WHV product.
The 265-store Global chain, which covers Scotland and the north of England, was one of the high-profile rental retailers to boycott Warner product since July.
It now joins Choices, the 193-store rental dealer in the Midlands and south of England, which ended its boycott in August in stocking WHV titles like the recently released Ocean's Eleven. Calls to Global Video head Mac Rasul were not returned.
Warner has faced an unofficial boycott of its products since it bowed a trading platform that removes the rental-to-sellthrough video window and, at the same time, charges rental dealers a premium for the right to rent its titles on DVD and VHS.
WHV U.K. managing director Neil McEwan said of the Global decision that the distributor is "delighted that more consumers will have the opportunity to rent or buy," adding that he hopes more retailers will soon follow Global's lead.

I think it's my age and mild anxiety speaking, but I get kinda nervous when it comes to kids meeting up with online friends unsupervised. In real life (haha) anyway. This book sounds cute and doesn't seem to end in an axe murder, so that's promising. :)
Now that I'm a bit older I'd love to meet up with online friends. Could be fun!
There is definitely no axe murder involved! Haha! I would love to meet up with online friends too! It would be so much fun! Hopefully someday we get the chance! :)Delete
