Stump of the World and San Marzano
I only have room to grow two varieties of tomatoes, so I've finally chosen Stump Of The World and San Marzano.
I picked both on a whim, never having had either before. Stump Of The World is spoken of very highly here in posts, so that's why I picked it. San Marzano because I'd like to try & make my own paste this year and the ebay seller had both of these tomatoes up for sale. Lazy shopping, I know.
I'll be starting the seed as soon as I get it, fortunately I have a long growing season here.
Any opinions or info I should know about these two?
~ Cindy ~
When do you normally plant out? It is late to just be starting seeds now IMO since it will be another 6 to 8 weeks before they will be ready for planting. Plants are going into the garden over the next week or so in much of zone 6. How many plants of each will you be growing?
Stump isn't noted for production numbers but many find it to be good flavored. Just don't expect a large number of fruit.
San Marzano is a good paste tomato but it is very prone to BER like most paste-types early in the season but planting so late you might be able to avoid some of that. There are better ones but then there are worse ones too.
I assume that you mean make your own tomato sauce rather than tomato paste, right? Given all the problems and energy costs with making tomato paste have you had success making it before? If so I know the folks on the Harvest forum here would be interested in how you do it. I know it can't be canned, only frozen and many don't care for the way it separates.
And that you don't have to use only paste types to make tomato sauce? Many find that a much better sauce results from using a wide variety of tomatoes types including slicers and oxhearts rather than paste-types.
Just some things to consider.
I normally plant out the last week of May - in my county our last frost date here is typically between May 16 and May 22 , yet I am in a band that gets colder temps and frosts & hail when others just two miles down the road get rain. (I am in the Appalachian mountains and in a cooler micro climate)
I have no space indoors to get a good start on seedlings so I start what I can later than everyone else - if the seedlings get too large before the end of May I have nowhere to go with them. So far it's worked out fine for me, I don't mind later yields. I am still getting fully ripe tomatoes in October before the frosts hit and kill the plants.
Locally the choices I have for seedlings looks pretty boring so far - although few nurseries/plant stands have much yet. I'm looking for something different. Something heirloom and non-GMO, something I've never grown before. (and I'm by myself so I don't need a lot of fruit - but I'm still disappointed Stump Of The World is a low producer - oh well!)
The whole paste/sauce thing is new to me, I have only used fresh slicers and canned before. Thanks for the tips/info on that...I'll start doing my homework! lol
Hi Cindy,
I just moved last October to the Blue Ridge Mountains of southwestern Virginia (Floyd) and started my tomatoes on April 15th. Based on my climate research and discussion with locals I agree late May is an appropriate time to set tomato seedlings outside here. I'll carefully monitor the 10 day forecast beginning mid May and choose a date based on that.
I am also growing SOW, along with 13 other varieties including beefsteaks, hearts, and pastes, 60 in total. I've been growing tomatoes in NJ for nearly 40 years, so this will be an interesting experience growing in a different climate and soil.
TomNJ (VA)
Something heirloom and non-GMO,
Impossible to buy GMO plants or seeds so that isn't a concern.
Glad to hear it won't be planting late for your location. So how many plants do you have room for? If severely limited I'd skip the San Marzano. Go to the seed trade forum here and pick up some other non-paste variety.
TomNJ, we are practically neighbors! In in C'burg, outside of town limits in Montgomery Co., halfway between the hospital and R. University. I'm usually in Floyd once a week or every two weeks. (if you like Mexican food, try El Charro - yum)
I must say I envy the space you have! I'm on a little mobile home lot and the park owner is fanatical about neatness (not a bad thing in a mobile home park) So I'm limited on space, with the added constraint of trying to keep the veggie bed invisible. I'll be interested in how your garden does, I'll have to watch for your posts.
btw, I'm a Connecticut transplant myself, way back in '89! We could start a Yankee club - lol
Hi Cindy,
I'm just north of the town of Floyd, eight miles up the 221. Our new "farm" is 25 acres, but the veggie garden is only 50' x 80'. I'm hoping to be vegetable self-sufficient in time.
We split our time between our NJ home and the Floyd home and will eventually move permanently to Floyd. We ate at El Charro last week - yummy is right - and frequent Mickey Gs (tonight) and the Pine Tavern when in Floyd. Love this area!!

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Itching for NHL's return to 'Peg
Prime press-box position a dream
PHILADELPHIA -- No sooner had your humble agent arrived at Chicago's United Center prior to Game 1 of the Stanley Cup final when a voice called out from across the media work room in the bowels of the monstrous arena.
"Hey, Turner!" yelped a columnist from the Big Smoke, "judging by your (assigned) seat in the press box, the NHL doesn't think that much of Winnipeg's chances of getting back in the NHL. Ha!"
Sure enough, the seat designated for the Free Press was in what's called an auxiliary box -- Section 9, Row 12 -- which was literally bumping up against the roof of the massive building. If you were any further up in the air, you'd need to file a flight plan. And the seats were right amongst the wild, rabid fans in the arena's low-rent district, where blue-collar Hawks faithful stand on their tippy-toes to get a glimpse of the action unfolding seven storeys below.
It's kinda cool, actually. But that's not the point. It's just that as the lone media wolf from The Little City That Couldn't, you feel a little bit like a long-lost relative at a family reunion as opposed to a complete stranger.
For Game 2, I was moved even closer to ice-level, from Row 12 in the Aux Box... to Row 8. Chided the same Toronto scribe: "When you get to here (pointing to the actual press box seating chart) that's when Winnipeg will be back in the NHL."
Funny guy.
Good-natured ribbing aside, however, there's no shortage of skeptics in this dodgy racket that are cynical of Winnipeg's renewed efforts to find footing again on NHL soil. The MTS Centre is too small, some believe. Others cling to the notion that, no offence, but the market just isn't big enough to generate at least $80 million in revenue year after year -- and that's if the Canadian dollar doesn't plunge, as it did in the 1990s, bringing all small-market Canuck-based teams to the financial abyss.
You can find those folks in Winnipeg, too, for that matter. It's all valid, given the city's uneven NHL history.
But for the most part, the majority of the assembled media -- at least those who even care, frankly -- have come around to believe the return of the NHL to Winnipeg is inevitable. And most of them express that conclusion with a genuine trace of as-it-should-be. As stated in this space before, that's light years removed from the prevailing attitudes on press row just four or five years ago.
It's not just the ink-stained wretches in print or the hair-and-teeth on TV, either, but GMs and coaches and players alike.
Sure, Philadelphia Flyers assistant GM John Paddock, the first Manitoba-born head coach of the Jets -- who was general manager of the team during it's last-gasp season in 1995 -- might have a bias. But Paddock is convinced Winnipeg's days as an AHL city are numbered.
Paddock cited NHL commissioner Gary Bettman's state-of-the-union address prior to the Stanley Cup final, where Bettman said the same reasons the NHL left Winnipeg -- an outdated arena and lack of ownership -- are the same reasons the city is now atop the league's do-to list, in terms of relocation.
"It was an interesting point he (Bettman) made," Paddock, a native of Oak River, reasoned. "Of course, nobody wanted to see the team go. But he said there was no owner and no building. That's the truth, you know.
"Obviously, now there's a building there (in Winnipeg) that they feel is capable of creating enough revenue for an NHL team or they wouldn't be talking about it. And there's ownership there that know the business and are pursuing it (a team), so it sounds like the real thing.
"My own opinion is I'd be shocked if it (the NHL) wasn't back there," Paddock concluded.
For what it's worth, for Game 3 in Philadelphia, there was a seat waiting for me in the main press box. That guy from Toronto? He was about 30 feet farther down.
Who knows? Maybe when he gets a little closer to the action, there will be a second team in Toronto someday.
I'm just sayin'.

About Randy Turner
While attending Boissevain High School in the late 1970's, Randy Turner one day read an account of a Winnipeg Jets game in the Free Press when it dawned on him: "Really, you can get paid to watch sports?"
Turner later graduated with a spectacularly mediocre 2.3 GPA from Red River Community College's Creative Communications program.
After jobs at the Stonewall Argus and Selkirk Journal, he began working on the Rural page for the Free Press in 1987. Several years later, he realized his dream of watching sports for a living covering the Winnipeg Goldeyes and Bombers.
In 2001, Turner became a general sports columnist, where he watched Canada win its first Olympic gold medal in men's hockey in 50 years at Salt Lake, then watched them win again in Vancouver in 2010.
He also watched everything from high school hockey and volleyball championship to several Grey Cups, NHL finals and World Junior hockey tournaments.
In the fall of 2011, Turner became a general features writer for the paper. But he still watches way too much sports.
Turner has been nominated for three National Newspaper Awards in sports writing.

I was surprised a week ago when a senior missionary serving in our ward said that the Church is struggling to get senior missionaries, something that an article in the Deseret News last week confirmed. But my senior missionary friend went further than the article did, saying that the number of senior missionaries has declined by 40% in the past decade. Read more »

God made all
Published: Monday, March 31, 2003 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, March 30, 2003 at 11:00 p.m.
The letter from James Howard is such a manifestation of ignorance of both the Bible and the solar system of the universe that I am compelled to answer.
When he conceded that the sun was created on the third day it began a series of errors. Neither knowing the scripture or the power of God, his dissertation was imbecilic at best. All translations show the sun, moon and stars being created on the fourth day.
The days were assigned prior to their creation. Get this: Day and night were instigated by God (Jehovah) before He created the sun.
If J. Howard followed newsworthy items, he would know the renowned scientists of this century discovered the loss of time mentioned in Scripture when they were ascertaining the re-entry of proposed spacecrafts. If he had known, then he would also know the day Job cursed and the backward movement of the sun dial in the days of Hezekiah were used to compute time, as well as the day lost in the days of Joshua. Obviously he neither reads the Bible or news events.
His reference to pi is neither biblical nor plays any part in his asinine explanation of God.
His reference to God doing only good shows his complete lack of the Word of God. God said He was the only God and created both good and evil. God went so far to say that there was not an evil in the streets that He did not have power over. We pampered Americans feel He was not present on Sept. 11, the day of infamy.
I am proud to be an American, but am cognizant of events and know the judgement of God has begun on all nations who depart from obedience of His Word. The vast majority of American citizens do not serve God. Praise God for those who do.
Religious systems of the world teach a "come to Jesus and get rich" prosperity; pay your tithes and fill the pew every service, look to "leadership," etc.
Few teach the truth and very few desire to serve as servants of God. One can readily see why there are disillusioned non-going church members.
As to his assumption that Israel should be the property of a group of mixed blood persons that occupied it when Israel was carried away because they broke the Covenant God had cut for the nation through Abraham, it is the epitome of ignorance. When H. S. Truman signed the document, other nations followed, making Israel a nation again; the land was mostly arid desert.
With the ability they were given (by God) the land began to blossom and prosper. Only then did these mixed-blood Arabs want the land. There is no Palestinian race mentioned in the scriptures. Arafat is an Egyptian with very little Arab blood and when he began the PLO it was as asinine as J. Howard's letter.
Before the J. Kennedys and other so-called fundamentalists, Baptists, Methodists, Presberytians, Episcopalians, Pentecostals,ECatholics, Reformed Judiasm or Charismatics write, I am none of these.
If you have accepted the shed blood of Jesus Christ as your source of spiritual cleanness and the Word of God as the incorruptible seed of a living God that leads us through this life and into the next - you are a family member of mine.
The Bible is clear: "The fool sayeth in his heart, there is no God."E

Letter for Donation document sample
Marianne Bigelow Accounting Services Manager 601 South 8th Street ● P. O. Box 1357 Tacoma, WA 98401-1357 253.571.1200 ● 253.571.1327 DATE DONOR NAME MAILING ADDRESS CITY, STATE ZIP DEAR DONOR: This letter outlines the understanding of Tacoma School District as to the status of donations or grants awarded to the school district. Based upon review of the applicable Internal Revenue Code (IRC), donations or grants to the district receive status as charitable contributions by the donor, if used solely for a "public purpose." As a political subdivision of the State of Washington, the district is not classified as a "501(c)(3), charitable organization"; however, the provisions of IRC Section 170 govern donations and grants to the district. Specifically: Section 170(a)(1) "General rule – There shall be allowed as a deduction any charitable contribution (as defined in subsection [c]) payment of which is made within the taxable year…" Section 170(c) "Charitable Contribution Defined – For purposes of this section, the term 'charitable contribution' means a contribution or gift to or for the use of (1) A State, a possession of the United States, or any political subdivision of any of the foregoing… but only if the contribution or gift is made for exclusively public purposes." The code does not specifically define "public purpose," but it is interpreted to mean the contribution or gift must not be intended to benefit any particular individual. The Tacoma School District welcomes donations and grants made for the benefit of our educational program and students, and has in place accounting and reporting procedures to ensure that all donations and grants are used for their intended purpose. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact the District's Finance Office at (253) 571.1198. Sincerely, ADMINISTRATOR NAME TITLE

On October 2, Arab media reported that a Kuwaiti radical Muslim television preacher, Tareq Suwaidan, was prohibited from visiting Saudi Arabia. Suwaidan had sought to go to Mecca to perform "umrah," a shorter version of the annual hajj pilgrimage.
Read more...
Against the expectation of many observers, social change continues in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Recent reforms have particularly affected the status of women. At the end of August, the Saudis took a remarkable and surprising step by criminalizing domestic violence. As reported in the London Independent, the Saudi cabinet "passed a ban on domestic violence and other forms of abuse against women for the first time in the Kingdom's history."
If I were of a cynical nature, I might suspect that this volume possesses an agenda beyond explaining the world's most important and least predictable Muslim country to Westerners. But an awkward combination of a pretentious title and a lightweight style employed by its author should not distract Saudi-watchers and other interested readers from the importance of this work.
Early in November, the Saudi Arabian government announced the replacement of interior minister Prince Ahmed Bin Abdul Aziz, named to the post in June of this year, after the death of Prince Nayef, his elder brother.
The U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia, James Smith, told the Arabic news outlet Asharq Al-Awsat that American foreign policy will now change after President Barack Obama's reelection. Smith made the comments at an election night party at his residence.
A post in the Wall Street Journal blog covering India suggests relations are souring between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, long the main instrument of Riyadh's ideological influence over South Asian Muslims. The desert monarchy has extradited several terrorist suspects to India, under a treaty signed between the two countries in 2010. Sayed Zabiuddin Ansari was sent to India in June, A. Rayees was deported by the Saudis to New Delhi in October, and Fasih Muhammad, last week.
In the seven years since King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz assumed the throne of Saudi Arabia, the absolute monarch, whose reformist aspirations are widely believed to be sincere, has attempted to curb some of the outrageous human rights violations for which the desert kingdom is known.
Media bias consists of more than partial quotes, deliberate misreporting, and economy with the truth. Doubt that, and read the New York Times last week, reporting—on page one—"U.S. Reliance on Saudi Oil Goes Back Up: Security Concerns Rise With Gulf Imports." If you think this has anything to do with the president's decision to veto the Keystone Pipeline, think again, or look for a more balance report.
For the first time in the history of the Olympic Games, Saudi women are being allowed by their ultra-conservative government to compete. As the Saudi athletes marched in the opening ceremonies in London, the women's faces and open arms showed a joyful sense of emancipation from the yoke of political, religious, and traditional marginalization. By the standards of free and advanced societies, the advance is small, but by Saudi standards, it is a gigantic step forward, with far-reaching implications for Saudi Arabia and the international community.
For 22 years, Bandar bin Sultan was Saudi Arabia's influential, irrepressible ambassador in Washington. After years in eclipse, he has just been named as head of the kingdom's intelligence service. What does it all mean?
Last week, the U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations released a report and held hearings on the giant British-based HSBC bank. HSBC Holdings was ranked as the sixth-largest public company in the world by Forbes in 2011, with assets of $2.5 trillion.
The death last week of Saudi Arabia's crown prince, Nayef Bin Abd Al-Aziz, aged 78 and heir to his half-brother, King Abdullah Bin Abd Al-Aziz, was not immediately foreseen by the Saudi public.
Saudi Arabian crown prince Nayef Bin Abd Al-Aziz, designated heir to King Abdullah Bin Abd Al-Aziz, died Saturday in Geneva, where he was receiving medical treatment. Nayef, 78, headed the country's ministry of interior and was deputy premier in the royal cabinet. He was named crown prince last year.
Since President Obama decided not to support the rebels fighting Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, a handful of Saudi religious figures have taken matters into their own hands.
In this video, obtained by the Middle East Media Research Institute, a Saudi women blasts religious police for harassing her in a public mall for wearing nail polish:

winter wonderland... ugh...
Hi all!
It's been a while so may be a bit rusty but will try to post some pics. Approx 5 FEET of snow so far this winter here in CT. Another storm arriving tomorrow...
Joannnowinsidejpg.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">e
Only got 1 pic in above so will try again. Have a cool one from inside the pool building...
I don't envy you guys in the NE one bit
We were into the mid 70's today and expect a front tomorrow that'll dip us to below freezing tomorrow evening.
I just can't deal with it and y'all make it look like a cake walk.
I'm curious, is the inside of your pool structure heated or does the water temp keep the pool from freezing and the inside temps semi reasonable?
See ya,
Hey Kelly
Actually we winterized the pool the Mon after Thanksgiving. The day of the pic, the H2O temp was 35 and the air 33. The next day we had ice so will need lots of sunshine come Feb to warm things up. The tree line in our backyard is just tall enough to block the sun by the end of Sept. By mid Feb the sun is high enough to warm up the building. We start up for the season the first weekend of April and typically run the heater a few hours to bring us from mid 70's to 80 then let the sun work its magic until mid Sept. We don't heat the air at all but the heat from the H2O does a nice job Oct/Nov although it gets a bit foggy!!

Excessive sweating & it's been 3 years since my hysterectomy
I had a complete abdominal hysterctomy about 3 years ago. I have always been a heavy sweater but since then it's extremely bad. I can't do anything even slightly physical without sweating so bad I look like I just had a shower. Sweat gets in my eyes, I can't see where i'm going sometimes plus i weart glasses (I am very nearsighted) & it gets so bad that the sweat gets on my glasses & trying to see then is like trying to drive in the pouring rain with no windshield wipers. It interferes with alot of things I do. I don't take any kind of hormone replacements. I tried progesterone cream 1 time & had the worst "PMS" attack i've ever had the next day. I don't like taking pills & am trying to find something natural that will help me with this. I have even tried various herbal remedies with no success. It's really causing me alot of problems. And it's about to drive me nuts. Any help is appreciated on this
You have just described me to a "T".
I have been to so many Dr's with regards to it.
The condition is called "hyperhydrosis".
The day after my hysterectomy I started to sweat till I was soaked and have been that way ever since. There is no quality of life whatsoever with this condition.
I take Estrogel (this is an Estrogen gel - 2 squirts each day from a pre-measured pump (rubbed into forearms or upper thighs) and I also take one prometrium each evening.
This does absolutely nothing to ease the sweating.
Surgeons will suggest having certain sweat glands removed - however it is not advised as the sweating will just move onto other sweat glands.
Have you had your thyroid checked?
The thyroid is the thermostat of your body - I do not have thyroid trouble.
I am scheduled to see an internist on July 8/08 - hoping he can help me.
My nephew's friend is a doctor in Oklahoma and he was saying that if a person is overweight (which I am), the fat blocks the heat from exiting the body - therefore sweat profusely.
It's a terrible condition, and everything you described is me, right down to the total hysterectomy 3 yrs ago. I am 49 yrs. old.
If I find anything out at my appt. on the 8th of July, I will post to let you know.

Student quote
Quote from Student: "I was fulfilling my dream while helping others and growing as a person.", "These type of projects should be a constant driving force behind a developing society"
Community-based learning is a form of experiential learning with the aim at accomplishment of tasks, which meets genuine human needs, as well as the execution of the tasks that serve as an educational and learning tool aimed at the acquisition of a number of important life skills by the students.
The Faculty of Engineering, Built Environment and information Technology at the University of Pretoria implemented from 2005 a new compulsory module, Community-Based Project (JCP), for all undergraduates. The eight-credit module is offered on an open-ended and project-orientated basis. The students attended compulsory orientation sessions and then submitted their projects in the form of a proposal for evaluation and approval.

After the students have done their fieldwork they report on their experiences and lessons learnt via a presentation and report in the form of a wiki on e-learning anagement system (clickUP).

Natural Family Planning has been such a blessing in our lives. At first, I was opposed to it. I thought the pill was the only option. Thank God a friend told me about NFP! It took me a while to understand the terminology as well as the philosophy behind the concept. After a few years of using it, I became aware of how trustworthy NFP is and how wonderful that it is both free and good for my body. At this point my husband and I decided to become trained to teach NFP to newly married couples. It was ironic how the laughing engaged couple in the back of the NFP room (us) was now training to teach others about things we never spoke about in public.. Read more »

Friday morning we got up early, packed up and left for the airport. We got through check in and security for an international flight in under ten minutes!! We couldn't believe how quick it went, except that we had to sit and wait almost two hours for our flight. At least the airport had free wifi!

He also had his trial in the room, where he was sentenced to death, along with 13 other leaders ...

... something about staying in hostels that makes it feel like more of an adventure for me. Since Devon interned in Dublin last summer she was very excited to be back and I was very excited for her to be our personal tour guide.

Hair Brush Cleaner
By laniy

Comments about Hairbrush Cleaner:
This product used to be made by the Fuller Brush Co. and it was much larger and much more sturdy. The picture looks the same but is sadly not what I expected because it is too small and flimsy. If this is an example of the other products sold by easycomforts.com I will not buy from them again.

'Avengers' Alternate Opening Features a Smoldering, Somber New York City (Video)
The Marvel blockbuster balanced action with quite a bit of humor, but as a DVD/Blu Ray extra reveals, that could have been radically different.
No schwarma here.
The Avengers, the biggest comic book film of the summer (and, all time) was a sort of light-hearted affair, mixing its spectacular (and CGI-assisted) action sequences with the quippy one-liners and physical humor that have long been the trademark of director Joss Whedon. But it could have been much different.
PHOTOS: Shots From 'The Avengers'
As a new DVD/Blu Ray extra released online Tuesday reveals, Whedon directed a much more somber and serious opening for the film that would have, presumably, been a preview of how the story ended (Spoiler Alert: in the actual film, the good guys won and yukked it up in Central Park afterward), which featured a wrecked New York City and a less-than-victorious Earth's Mightiest Heroes. As Captain America looks on at a city in ruins, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Maria Hill is required to answer to the government's higher-ups, who are less than happy with Nick Fury.
Of course, it's not as if NYC got off without a scratch in the real film -- there was about $160 billion in hypothetical damage to the city, THR found -- but from the looks of it, it would have been worse in this alternate universe.
This version would have brought Avengers much more in line with this summer's other gigantic superhero film, The Dark Knight Rises, which completed Christopher Nolan's grim look at humanity and near-destruction of Gotham.
Of course, it's hard to fathom the Avengers actually losing the battle -- there is a whole next generation of films, including an Avengers sequel, on the way. But they would have at least suffered a bit more.
