Expired chocolate cake mix
Friend-baker cleaned closets and gave me a bag with expired chocalate cake mix.
Is it OK to add it to compost or dig into soil?
The flour mixture might attract rodents, especially if it "cakes" up...that said, if it's not an issue it should be fine if the rest of the mixture isn't too high in fats that would become available once moist.
The carbs would feed fungi and the sugars would feed microorganisms.
Mix it in well to avoid caking and rodent attractiveness...apply appropriate or sparingly depending on the size of your pile, how "hot" it is, and how quickly it can "work on" the amendment.
The "use by" and "sell by" dates found on food products are meant to help the retailer keep moving stock. They are not meant to tell you that food is no good after then.
If theat mix does not have weevil larva crawling around in it it can probably still be used, however, it can be composted just as any other food you could eat can be.
Here is a link that might be useful: Use by dates
I helped someone clean out some kitchen cabinets of long-expired food last year and composted all of it, about 2 boxfuls: plant-protein powders, boxed soups and soymilks, unidentified grains, etc. I mixed it a little with browns (mulch) as I added it, but it was still a pretty disgusting process. And then, a couple months later, I moved all my compost bins AND the compost. That bin was the stinkiest compost ever! As I moved it, I distributed the stinkiest glop to different bins and made sure to put lots of normal compostables and mulch between layers of glop.
And when the compost was done, I couldn't tell the difference between the bins that had the pantry glop and the bins that didn't. It was all great compost!

Style wit Trysh ~ DeAndre Riley
Everybody has something to say—but not everyone makes an impact with their words. DeAndre Riley, also known as D.R. Speaks, is a multi-faceted force in and out of the four walls of the church. After suffering the loss of both biological parents at a young age, D.R. Speaks made poor decisions that could have destroyed his future. Instead of allowing those things to defeat him, he used them as stepping stones to his unmerited success. As a minister, motivational speaker and author, he seeks to deposit a simple, yet profound principle in the lives of those he may come in contact with: inspire, inform, instruct, and impact.
As the founder of D.R. Speaks Enterprises, he provides motivational speaking and consulting to ministries, organizations, business professionals and corporations. His sole belief that words are the greatest tool given to mankind to aid them in living the life they are destined to live has opened numerous doors of opportunity. D.R. Speaks can be heard weekly on his radio show, "I've Got Something to Say.". This weekly power-packed show inspires others to press past their failures, embrace the future, dream bigger and reach their full potential—then encourage someone else to do the same. www.DRspeaks.org

Kiler Davenport Live: Interview with Morgan Riley
With an unbiased passion for music – regardless of genre – it's clear that Skytone Entertainment artist Morgan Riley offers something new to country listeners. Her soon-to-be-released album Collage is just that… A melting pot of genres with an ever-so-slight country dominance. While the road to this release hasn't always been smooth, Riley has handled each curve with hope and exuberance – all the while finding her sound and writing to connect with her fans. "I'm a firm believer in everything happening for a reason – everything that's happened throughout my life has led to my relationship with Skytone and the release of this album. I couldn't be happier."
Until the album's release – set for early spring – Riley continues to write, perform and work with children aged two through five at New Springs Church. "I'm really blessed to be where I'm at in life. I have no doubt given the team I've surrounded myself with that this release has the potential for great success. I feel like Collage is me – the first project I've done that truly represents my voice. While all other genres play a part in this album, my dad always encouraged my country side. Now that I've found it, I can't wait to share it with fans."

The Mark Riley Show with Vianney Ausseil
in Politics
What do you get when you blend an African American political pundit with a feisty mixed-raced Brit? A daily dose of unabridged banter, loaded with insights to culture unique to Mark Riley and his partner Kim..
A typical day for this pair or opposites includes a debate about gun control in the States; a quarrel about why Americans should care about international protocol (should Michele O. have touched the Queen); and a full blown fight the end over Arsenal (him) v Spurs (her).
And they've got the ammo….Mark Riley has ruled New York radio waves for 33 years, with insights and a command of US stats unparalleled by peers. Kim Jack Riley has worked the publishing and new media circuit as Managing Editor of the #1 Hip Hop mag, The Source, and most recently Editorial Director for New Media at NBC.
But wait, it's not all black and white…just when this dynamic duo reaches peak performance, they are joined by…Vianney Ausseill…a French-American know-it-all, who at the tender age of 21, is unwilling to compromise any opinions.
Together, they make media magic, with a unique perspective on global issues that can only be derived from a multicultural blend of backgrounds and perspectives.

2 cultivars of salvia leucantha
really nice mexican sages, one new this year the other wintered over in the lebanon area with no mulch. they are about 6 feet tall.
Image link:
Nice ones. Thanks for sharing. I can never get mine to overwinter in the Texas Panhandle (zone 6b). But, I really like them so I treat them like an annual. Here's a couple of pix of mine this year.Texas red salvia in front with zinnias below.
they get tall and spread out. I usually only plant 4 to 6 to cover about 25 feet of bed. Early in the season they aren't terribly attractive as they grow. But, when fall arrives they are real show stoppers. So, I usually kind of hide mine behind some earlier bloomers until they hit their prime.
Luecantha and other salvias are our favorite for late summer and into fall. They attract hummingbirds and many insects. Bumble bees stay on the flowers during the night. We had a milder than usual winter last year and the ones we had last summer survived so we put in several more plants in the spring. All have grown and bloomed identically. I put chopped leaves mounded over the bases of the plants in the fall and removed it in spring. EP

Want to Start an Etsy Shop? How to Plan for the Year
By The Etsy Blog on March 29, 2012
BlogHer Spotlight
Even though I've never run a business with inventory, I spent several years as a contractor for a large corporation. While doing that, I learned a lot about estimated taxes, expenses, budgeting, etc. I remember thinking it would be way worse if I had material costs and inventory -- things get really complicated then.
Anyone who's ever considered starting an Etsy shop should check out Jason's post about budgeting on the Etsy blog. Jason kicks off his post with the benefits of budgeting:
Planning — A budget provides a vision of where you want your business to be in the future. Use this to create non-financial strategies to reach your financial targets.
Adjusting — A budget will never be absolutely correct. Use it to adjust throughout the year. If your recent results don't match up with what you wanted them to be, start making different business decisions to reach your plan.
Motivating — When you see those sale numbers that are a challenge, use it as motivation to improve your business.

Flag's Column
FLAG asked me to post the pictures of our work on her column. It was made w/one and a half sheets of the lathe, and another layer of the same, plus a three-inch patch down the length where the second layer didn't meet around the first. We applied one bag of mortar on Thursday after we got it together, but in near 100 degree heat, that's all I could stand that day. She's still in the process of mortaring it in the early mornings, but standing seven ft. tall, it's taking awhile. It'll probably get two layers of mortar cuz y'all know how I am. There are some "warts" that FLAG's perfectionist personality can't tolerate. Sorry, FLAG.
WHOOHOO!!! Go BIG or go Home!!!(Well,You know what I mean!)heh heh! I have a tube, that I may do once I get all the other stuff done! But really, you use less concrete doing it the Riana way, don't you think? hmm...Anyhoo, can't wait to see how she'll decorate this baby!!! Did she send you home with goodies??? Tiles??? Nosy ain't I!lol!
Janey- I tried to send her home with a lot of stuff, but she was tired and we were all HOT and she wanted nothing. So, I will make her a care package and take it to her. I
think she needs more "Bling" in her garden..LOL
I worked on this baby this am and got about halfway on all sides and a little higher on some. One more session and I will be on a ladder. Yep Slow is right, 2 coats are called for, that way it will be smooth..
Flag, I just found this column projet! Wow! I have a lot of respect for anyone wrestling with that much mesh. How did you get the even roundness after piecing? Did you just roll it a bit to get an even curve? Do you always use mortar instead of concrete? I really have a problem with understanding what is what, concrete, mortar, thinset, mastic.
I really have a problem with understanding what is what, concrete, mortar, thinset, mastic.
You are not alone, artglass. HAHAHAHA
That's a biggun. But then again, they do EVERYTHING bigger in Texas. Yup, I'll move there one day.
You'll have a lot of fun with it. Will be watching for updates!! Can't wait!
I have to go after more mortar.
artglass, Betty(Slow) did the form for me, she brought a friend she wanted to show how to do it. I think I threw a monkey wrench in the thing as I wanted it bigger around. So anyway, this is 4 sheets of lath plus a 3" piece to fill in on one side of the final layer. Mortar, thinset are the same thing. Buy mortar mix with sand, NO ROCKS. Rocks and gravel are in concrete mix. Slow and I do not use mastic. Only mortar or thinset. If you ask for thinset at Lowes they won't know what you speak of...LOL...ask for mortar mix. You can find it with the masonry stuff and also Mapai brand in the tile section of the store. I hope this clarifies things. We refer to what we smooth on the lath as crete. Only slang, not concrete with rocks.
Ahhh. I plan on making a large tree kinda like this.
DH brought me a 12ft tube home from work. I plan on wrapping the lathe around it. I think it'll help me with applying the crete and not smooshing it all the way through.
How did you do the base?
Here is a link that might be useful:
Wow! Just wrap the tube with lath twice and then pull out the tube and save it for next time. The base we measured up 12" and then cut slits and bent up the feet. I have concrete blocks sitting on the feet while creteing and then after mosacing, Slow's idea is to dig a hole, place the column and feet in it, use bent rebar pins and drive then thru the feet into the ground, then pour concrete into the hole atop the feet and cover with dirt. I will not tile the bottom 8" or so of the column. this should hold it forever. I found a clay plant saucer that just fits the top. Stand your lath up or lay down and join to long sides together. If yours is a 12" tube, your lath will fit and lap over you will have to add if you are going to leave it that tall or cut your cardboard tube in half and you will have two forms. I had very little crete fall thru,most of it just went between the two laths. I too have some cardboard tubes from Lowe's 8" and 12" that I am going to use to form the next column, it will not be this tall. I am trying to devise a cradle to lay this baby down in to mosaic since I don't want to be on a ladder for the top or on the ground for the bottom.
Mine is now all creted and ready for tess so will have to do the cradle this weekend so when my handyman gets here Mon he can help me to turn it on its side.
Good luck with yours Bama, keep us informed.
WOW, WOW, WOW. BAMA - that is one tall sucker!!!!!!!!! A TREE????????????????? Oh, boy - you've laid out the tease. Now you have to keep us updated on your project. When you gonna start, huh huh huh??? Congrats, FLAG, on the completion of concreting. I know you're anxious to start slapping on the tess. Mentally working on two more, huh? Are we sick or what?
I know I'm wacked..I have been outside all morning with a hammer and breaking up a lot of tile that was given to me. Most of this is floor tile, but it breaks just the same. A lot of it I will use on the column and some of it on the back wall of my house. I already have the design sketched on the brick. But that will be another thread. Now I am back out to look under my worktable and make sure I have busted all the tile I had under there. I now have a basket of white, two green, two grey or dk brown, one beige and one mixed. I started this by looking for some black river rocks I thought I had. I wanted them for this column, but alas, no black rocks so I guess I will use brown rocks from my sucullent bed. Anyone got a source for black river rocks that not too expensive?
No black rocks, my friend. I'll be interested to see what spin you put on this column. I picked up a large piece of about 20 inch pipe for free at a GS, and am looking for inspiration. I may try some flowers with the indirect method, as I've loved your flowered pieces from the start.
Here is this mornings progress. I only stayed on the ladder for one batch of thinset. LOL. It got very hot out there so I will wait for shade. I did sort of get my design drawn on the column. I scrapped the idea of laying this baby down to work on it. It already weighs a ton and with the addition of tess...well. I will do the top half with it here and then set it in place and do the bottom half. I am afraid if I do it all, the dolly to roll it will knock off some of my tess. I intend to work on this some more today so will post another pic later.

I was wondering how long it w/take you to realize it w/be much too heavy to move once mosaiced. I know it's a PITA to work on site, but doncha think you should move it now to where it'll be, plant it and begin? Since it's not as large an area as my wall, you wouln't be on the ground so much. You could whip out the ground area in one/maybe two mornings, and the rest is easy.
I think I will have Juan dig the hole tomorrow, bend the rebar and mix the crete, It should set up by Sat. I may continue to work around the very top today. My legs gave out standing on the ladder so long. I will be glad to get it down to chair height so I can sit. I have done more since the last pic but will wait until this evening to do another one. I am going to $ stores in a bit to look for black rocks. I mixed the thinset thinner but can't get the squoosh to do right. I will keep on trying and by the time I get to the bottom I should know how. LOL
Not much more headway today. More tomorrow. heres pic

Janey- that blue thing is a piece of pvc someone gave me, I am going to give it a scratch coat of thinset and then mosaic it. Don't know about the top yet. Maybe grow a plant in it?
Here are pics of the great big column getting set in place today. I will backfill the dirt tomorrow morning so I can get back to my mosaic. I think this should hold. I did it like Slow told me to by using rebar bent into a "U" and then hammered thru the "feet" and into the ground, then we leveled it and poured concrete around it. After the concrete sets up the dirt will go back in the hole. I'm off to Wally World to look for black river rocks. I have looked everywhere else, even at 3 dollar stores and no such thing. So,if they don't have them I will use black lava rock. It won't be smooth like I wanted it, but it will be black. LOL I put 10-12" in the ground so it is not so tall now. Only a little over 6'.

Flag, looking great, that is going to be some column, whatcha going to put around it??
Question for you and Slow. I think you guys are using mortar right now, but i looked back in past forums and saw the original Riana method was using sand and cement mixed?? How come you have switched to thinset/mortar?? curious because I am playing with my first double mesh gazing ball stand, just using the hardware cloth i have around here, and planned on using sand and cement.. but wondering.
Thanks, I know that column will be awesome because you and I love all of the same colors, you make them, I drool over wanna bes..
Mer- Rianna's method does call for sand and cement and she uses that exclusively. In the class of hers I took she said mortar mix is the same thing. If you read on the pkg of Quikrete mortar mix it is cement mixed w sand. At our Lowes this is only 3.48 per 60# bag. So this saves us a lot of mixing. It's up to you what you use. I think Slow has changed to the mortar mix too. I'll let her add her 2 cents worth to this. I am going to do 2 more colums of different heights to go with this one, then I will dig out sod and make a sort of island put down landscape fabric and cover with black lava rock like for grills. Then I can add bowling balls or whatever to the ground part. Big plans for a gal who can't stand up but 30 min at a time. HUH! LOL I need my head examined for sure.
Bless Slow's heart, she hit the Dollar Tree for me yesterday and got me 20 bags of black rocks...I am set for life or at least a month with lots of shiny black river rocks....what a sweetheart she is!
If FLAG w/EVER come to the "Metropolis", she'd find all kinds of stuff. MER: On my GYPSIE Head Planter, I mixed the sand and Portland cement, but the mortar mix is so much easier, and just as effective. If I can't get the finish on this fountain nice enough, I'll try to find some silica sand and use the Portland cement to make a smoother finish. Anxious to see what you do on your stand.
thanks so much Flag, I can't wait to see how your new area will look. And yes, that was ssssssssoooo sweet of Slow to get you the black river walk. I'm with you on avoiding "metropolis" LOL.
If I can , I order online and go with free shipping rather than running all over.
Slow, i did wonder when you gals had switched, but I agree Thinset seems alot easier than trying to mix the sand and cement
Hope you both have a great weekend. For that matter, you will probably have both finished your project by Monday. LOL
Slow, you know I like this little town except when it comes to needing supplies. I do leave every now and then you have to admit. I just don't stay in the "Metropolis" long enough to find stuff. LOL I think you are probably right about not being able to drag me away from the column. I was just out there and it is still too hot to work on, later I hope it cools off a bit. In the meantime I will sort all my new black river rock and find the ones I want to use. Just like Christmas, so much to choose from.
you guys are amazing! and this project is mindboggling.
one word of caution, mortar mix can have quality control problems, I once spent a whole day mortaring stones around a waterfall only to come back the next day and find that it never set up... it was about 90% sand. ugh
I am also hunting for a silica or fine blasting sand supplier.
and uh... Damn you Janey Bo! LOL last week at the dump there was this chair and now I've brought it home with lunatic plans in my head
You guys are lucky to have a dump to visit. I know we have one but they won't let us in to look around.
I gave up on the thinset to adhere the tiles to the column and went back to my tried and true pre mixed thinset. It is working like a charm and faster too. It started raining on me a bit this am and ran me inside. I am going back out to see if I can get some other stuff done out there until it quits raining.
Slow, yep it was quickcrete brand from Lowes.
But we are discussing thinset failure at masgo right now and the issue of mixing has come up. Debra said that a mapei rep told SAMA that they produce their products with the thought that contractors are mixing the whole container/bag at a time but since we dip in and make one cup at a time - we may be getting iregular recipes. One thought is that the dry ingredients should be agitated and rolled around in a closed bucket.
looking forward to new pics Flag
Update- after two days of rain and rain off and on today I have made a little progress. Unsure of the next color, I think terracotta. This is slow going as I work an hour between thunderstorms and then have to cover everything and wheel my wagon load of tess, etc. back under cover. I am about to get this thing down to where I can sit down and work on it though. Thank goodness.
Here is a link that might be useful: Updated photos
Ooooooooo - looking really good, girlie. The sides look so smooth. How large are you tess pieces, and what is that black - looks like slate. I'm in withdrawals, but afraid to complain about the rain for fear we won't get anymore for a looooooong time, and I hate to water. Why do you have to wheel your tess in/out? Can't you just leave it on site?
The dark color is a dk grey slate,left over from someone's const job. Given to me so I hit it with a hammer and got littler pieces. Most of my pieces are 2"x2" or 1x3. I have to cut them to follow the curve of the sides. I have all my tess, thinset, nippers, chalk, rags etc. all on my big wagon. I tried leaving the tess out but it got all wet as the containers filled up w/water. I had to drain all of them and then dry the tess off for the thinset to stick.
I am glad I quit when I did and covered my work as the bottom fell out of the sky and it is pouring again. I guess I will go to the ceramics in the garage and work. Or take a nap. Can't decide. Maybe make more marbles for Slow.
Artglass, I have most of my tile pieces in 2x2" pieces and then cut them to fit. I will try to do a closeup for you guys to see. I was mixing mortar by the butter container but I gave that up and am using premixed right now. I am buttering each piece and then adhering it. I started out trying to squish the thinset between the tiles to save having to grout. That didn't last long as I can't get it to squish evenly. I guess I just don't have the touch for it so will grout anyway. They are predicting more storms for today so I am out of here and going to try to get some done on this thing before the rain. Thanks again to all of you for your encouragement.
7/31/09 Here is my progress so far this am. I quit for lunch and a rest and will do more this afternoon. I am working the mirror on around and will put green in the space between the mirror and terracotta. I am still questioning what I am going to do on the back top. More later
Here is a link that might be useful: Today's progress so far
LOVIN' this. Looks great. You'll have that sucker ready to grout next week. Whatcha gonna put on top of the topper saucer? Re your pvc pipe, I'm thinking all you need to do is take your electric sander and rough it up in order to use thinset instead of GE II.
I'ts looking fantastic, what a statement . I love it.
I'll post the pix of my first try at making a post for my gazing ball later,. but i think i might have screwed up. I didn't take my pvc pipe out yet. Flag it looks like you took yours out right away. I've got one layer of concrete between the mesh...
Mer- Mine wasn't mad3e around pvc pipe. Check the beginning pictures and see that Slow formed this one round and then added a second layer. If you used a pvc pipe, why did you not just mosaic on the pvc? I wonder if you can get it out now? Better try before you cement the lath to it if you want to save it.
Not a lot of progress today but I'll give it he** tomorrow. I am excited about finishing this baby.
Here is a link that might be useful: 8/2/09 Progress
Oh, my! Girlie, had I known you were going to use the rock so sparingly, I wouldn't have gotten you so many. I love how you used them here. You can finish today. Sure makes a difference when you have your tess all ready, huh? Betcha can hardly wait to grout this. Where's CALAM?
Oh, I like it, I like it. Love the rocks. Betcha you'll finish this today and start grouting the top. Don't envy you there. No, wait - I'll bet you start the next one. Got designs drawn on it??? Sure is a wonderful piece for your garden, and I can just imagine the three of them together. See what time I'm up this morn? Been awake since 2:00, gave up at 3:00. Gonna be at Lowes when their doors open for mortar.
You aren't the only one up. I had to get up at 4:30 to take Janice and Jim to the truck. So, here I am drinking coffee and putering. I hope to finish this today. I guess I will use charcoal grout on all of it. I was going to try to use terracotta on the terracotta but doubt if I have that much patience.
Moving slow and working low today...trying to figure out what to do next to finish this monstrosity. I am thinking black/white checkerboard lower left. 2" squares. ???? I will try a little of it in am and see. Too hot out there right now. I like the inside cool.

Texasfern, Grab that column and run!!! The tessy will find you!!!heh heh! This is looking great Flag!!! I have a smaller version on the go, all I've poured is the globe so far, but have a tube to do to, it'll only be about 4ft high,...I'll be a mini you!!!!hee hee!!!
Fern- go to the builder's surplus store and ask for their broken and trashed tiles. That's where most of mine came from. The red were a bunch of sq and round plates Slow and I found on a trip to Dallas. The mirror I got out of the glass mans dumpster, and a bunch of tile from a contractor that were left over. It took me a week to break all of them but I still have some left for the next two columns. If you don't grab that, grab it for me. Maybe Slow and I can take a field trip and come that way.
I QUIT for the day. I have been rained out twice this am and just came in for a shower as the sauna out there is too much for me. I may go back out late this evening, but it will probably be in the am. Just a little bit more..

Yeah the mosaicing is done. Tomorrow or Saturday for grout and top. Don't like the saucer I have for the top but my sweet and wonderful friend Betty (Slow) has a larger one she will give me. That will be the topping on the cake, the grout according to Janeybo is the frosting. Sure wish she were here to ice this thing. Starting the next one tomorrow.
Here is a link that might be useful: 08-06-09 Finished with the mosaic
Congrats! I love your column. Have been wondering what your topper was going to be. Are you doing one or 2 more? A friend made 2 using field tile different heights and diameters with a third piece made from a table, more of a drum shape. Maybe I can get a pic.
Thanks Artglass, I would love to see a pic. I am going to use the saucer upside down and then a finial on top of it.The finial is metal and I am considering mosaicing most of it in mirror. I will post a pic of it later. Your friends columns sound neat. Want to see them.
Thanks you all. Slow and I have the same metabolism as we both get up before daylight and have our coffee and then get outside before the sun gets too hot. By noon I am back inside or working in the studio. So I figure we give a project a good 5-6 hrs a day. I know a lot of you still work but when I did, I still got out early and spent a couple hours b4 work. I visited Slow today and got the bigger saucer for the top of this and will go out and place it on top and do a picture. I think this will be the perfect topper. I have a finial for it but am afraid it is too small proportion wise. I will set it up there and let you guys see and help me decide. My other choice is to crete a beachball and add a finial to it. I am thinking a lot of mirror on whatever finial.
Here is a pic of the saucer Slow gave me and a metal finial I had. I am thinking of using this finial on top of the column but am concerned it is not chunky enough. I am also in a quandry as to mosaicing it and what colors to use. I have a couple of other options but would like your feedback on this one. Thanks
Here is a link that might be useful: Column topper
I love the topper, and tho I haven't been here too long I have been watching this amazing tower rise up. The saucer looks in proportion as does the finial. If I squint my eyes and look at it....to me it seems as tho the "neck" of the finial makes it look too "delicate" for the whole rest of things. Would it be possible to eliminate some of the "neck" and see if that might change what you are seeing?? Just a thought. Each artist has their own way of seeing it. Love the project and what you have done with it.Keep us posted.
Thx Cathy- I am waiting for Slow to chime in here. I have been out scouting my studio and my stash places in the garage and I may have come up with a combination that will be larger. I will have to combine a larger ceramic ball, a different finial and I still need to find something for a neck. I have even considered a large vase I have as a base for the ball. If I go the component way I will have to cement it all together and then cover it all in crete prior to mosaicing. Tomorrow I will dig further. I know I have a tupperware stand around here that went with a large relish tray that will work, now to find it...ugh. I will take some more pics tomorrow of the various choices. Thanks
Here's some options, now I don't know. I would coat whatever with thinset and then mosaic. Of course put together w gorilla glue first.
Here is a link that might be useful: Topper Options
Oh YES! That is great, where did you find the beautiful finial? I just bought two huge tubs of stuff and still don't have enough. I think I have the "bug"...lol. I now have the "mantra".....if some is good, MORE is better!! This new combination seems to marry the pieces together with balance and weight. My eye only. :)
Here is the topper all glued together and one coat of thinset slurry. Mosaicing will begin tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Stinging Nettle
Good stuff, the herbal Stinging Nettle. That's something I purposely grow in my yard. A friend of mine got me some starts of Urtica dioica, then later I grew more from seed...it's a nonnative species used for all kinds of things. There's native nettles in Texas, but one of them gives very bad stings! Urtica dioica is less stingy than that one. I put them in a part of my yard that's out of the way, then have a little sign for a warning. I could also put a little fence around it, but there's just the two of us living here and DH seldom goes in the yard...just doesn't seem necessary. As far as sting remedies, Jewelweed doesn't grow here...too hot, I guess...wish it would grow! Anyway, Urtica dioica does fine in shadier areas here as long as I water it from time to time. It really makes a great addition to my teas and really helps me sometimes when I'm not feeling good.
Stinging nettle is an interesting herb with potential medical uses (therapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia and allergies are among the applications with limited evidence).
However, the link provided in the first post is a poor source of herbal information, on nettle specifically (including the belief that the herb treats virtually any ailment known to man) and on herbs in general, seeing that it depends on testimonials and touts ineffective and even dangerous remedies.
As for the latter, it calls for using lobelia as a treatment for threatened miscarriage. This herb has nasty toxic properties, and herbalists as well as medical practitioners warn against its use.
"Significant toxicity has occurred following use including vomiting, seizures, cardiovascular collapse, and coma. Lobelia may have additive toxicity when combined with nicotine...Patients should be warned not to use this supplement."

Lawmaker accuses PolyMet as being a shell
ST. PAUL - A southwest Minnesota legislator claims the company proposing a northeastern copper-nickel mine is a shell corporation that does not have enough financial assets to assure that environmental problems it leaves could be cleaned up.
Rep. Andrew Falk, D-Murdock, also questioned Tuesday whether PolyMet intends to follow up with financial promises.

odd little plant in my moss gdn
This little creeper showed up in my Japanese garden this spring. It grew among my polytrichum which I had sown from the woods, but has spread across the other mosses, too. It has leaves like a tiny nasturtium, but split like a waterlily's. It has flowers like a watercress, white and the size of a pinhead. The leaves are about 1/2" avg.
Any ideas what it might be?
Here is a link that might be useful: odd weed
Here's a link:
Here is a link that might be useful: Dollarweed or pennywort
Yes, it is a Hydrocotyle species.
While the link above is interesting Hydrocotyle and this
species that is plaguing your mosses may not be a weed
species but rather a local native species.
In California, where I am at, there are three native species. It is a great plant for shallow water spots.
Your best course of action to contain it is to pull it up
when it gets started as it is viny in habitat forming
runners like strawberries which root out every now and then from whence a leaf grows.
I would recommend moving some of it into a small watertight bowl with some earth that sits just below the rim and flooding it until water sits on the surface and then plant in the Hydrocotyle and sit out in full sun or partial sun. An interesting accent for a table and fairly easy to contain as it is a shallow rooting plant.

I started my first period this morning (5 woks 3 days pop after cesarean...heavy bleeding, cramping...everything normal) about 6 this evening I felt a really bad pain and what felt like a clot...went to the bathroom and there was this white thing that I I can't really describe other than it looked like one of those pictures you see illustrating what your baby looks like early on...like a little blobby thing with a stem on it. The whole thing was about 2 inches big (stem, blob, and all). I wiped the blood off to get a better look (gross I know =/) and realized there was a part of this thing that looked and felt like cartilage . I put it in a zip lock to take to my dr (and washed my hands and used sanitizer!!) Ever since then I've been really crappy, filling a pad within 30 minutes or less...and now I'm passing blood clots that range from golf ball to baseball size. Very early on, an er dr believed she heard a double heart beat. At my first actual dr visit, 11 weeks and just one heartbeat was present. I was a twin, my mom miscarried my brother. Is it possible that there really was a second child and I'm just now passing it?? My period was NOTHING like this after my vaginal birth 4 years ago.
wth just happened??? *tmi...possible trigger*
Posted 11/05/2012
Go to the doctor. Losing that much blood is dangerous. Also it might not have been your period and with a c/s it's pretty unlikely to have missed a twin, though maybe not impossible. All rhe best.
Posted 11/05/2012
Posted 11/05/2012
I don't know but I've always been told if you fill a pad in an hour or less to go to the er, especially after having a baby so I think you might need to go get checked out. Good luck.
