It's a common belief that only droopy-eared dogs get ear infections, but that's not true! Even dogs with pointy ears can get them. #petsTweet
Does your dog scratch his ears or shake his head? Is there a discharge or foul odor coming from his ears? If so, he might have an ear infection. Call us today and we'll take a look!
If a dog has had multiple ear infections, the ear anatomy can change and make it more likely for him to get infections in the future. #petsTweet
Most dogs get infections in their ears because of allergies to environmental irritants—and it's the allergic reaction that makes their ears so itchy. Once a dog starts scratching, the ear canal lining gets damaged, and yeast and bacteria take over. Let us take a look before it gets serious!
Ear infections affect 14-20% of dogs. If your dog scratches his ears, shakes his head or has a foul ear odor, he may be one of them. #pets
Using an ample amount of cleaner is key to thoroughly cleansing the ear canal. But don't use cotton swabs! Using them can cause impaction or damage to the ear. Let us show you how to do it properly—call us today!
In puppies and kittens, itchy ears can be caused by ear mites. If you see your new #pet scratching or see a brown discharge, call us!Tweet

Ever felt like you've run out of creative ideas for your graphics? Too many deadlines, different people wanting different things, and probably too much coffee, can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uninspired.
These are the worst feelings to have when you need to deliver creativity on demand, which is why we've put together a little list of inspiration to get your creative juices flowing again.
Whether it's for your own business or you're freelancing for someone else, you need to decide on the purpose of the graphic before the fun starts. Where will this graphic be shown, on what platform? Is it for social media? A blog? Will it be printed? Who is the audience? These are all things to consider, as they define certain factors of your design.
Another thing to think about is the brand itself. Jot down any restrictions the business or brand may have applied to your work. It may be size, colour scheme, adhering to a particular house style… Try not to think of these details as limitations but as guidelines instead — having a loose criteria allows you to eliminate a number of options, which makes your job less daunting.
If you're still feeling a little flat after noting down your design criteria, fear not! Check out our tips below for getting back into that creative zone.
1 Social media
That's right, we're encouraging you to stop what you're doing and head on over to the dark side (just make sure you come back!) We're talking about Pinterest and Tumblr specifically. These are the two biggest and fastest growing imaged-based social media platforms. They're brimming with stunning photography and designs, and are easy-as-pie to navigate and search. Whether you're after inspiration for a logo design, a blog graphic or a colour scheme, you're bound to find some incredible visual treats here.
2 Get talking
What we mean of course, is get talking with other people you know who create their own graphics. Have a chat about the projects you're working on and what aspects you're finding particularly challenging. They might be able to offer you some advice, or better yet, have a solution to your problem because they've 'been there, done that'. If this isn't the case, that's no problem either, just talking through the difficulties of a job will lift some of the weight from your shoulders, and afterwards, you may be able to approach the project refreshed and rearing to go.
3 Turn those glossy pages
If you're after inspiration, there's no need to look any further than design-related magazines. These bad boys highlight the best of the best in the industry and their work is sure to leave you motivated and in awe. If you're stuck at your computer, here's 42 free online magazines to explore, or check out our shortlist of virtual glossy pages for you to flip through as well:
4 Play
One of the great things about working online is the abundance of free and useful tools at your disposal, and tools for graphic design are no exception. Some of our favourites include Colour Lovers and Kuler, where you can play around with colour palettes and check out the most popular colour schemes and where they're being used.
We've previously compiled some great design tools online including Designspiration and DesignTAXI. And let's not forget Canva itself, where you can drag and drop as well as experiment with colours and fonts.
5 Get out more often
If you've tried everything on this list and our suggestions just haven't done it for you, chances are what you really need to do is go outside. Yes, you read right, step away from the screen and get some fresh air. Go for a walk in the sun, grab a coffee with a friend, throw a stick for your dog, whatever it is — you'll find that taking your mind off the job for half an hour or so can really rejuvenate your creative flow.

Shocker: Elijah Dukes arrested again
Apr 25, 2011, 10:30 AM EDT
It's been over a year since he last wore a major league baseball uniform so we're probably at the point where a story about Elijah Dukes getting arrested is less about a ballplayer in trouble with the law than it is about a criminal who happened to once play ball. Still, for old times sake:
Troubled former Tampa Bay Rays player Elijah Dukes has been charged in Florida with driving with a suspended or revoked driver's license. Officials say the 26-year-old Dukes was arrested Sunday afternoon on an exit ramp of Interstate 75 near Tampa. Hillsborough County Jail records show he was released Sunday on a $250 bond.
Suspended license? It's like he's not even trying anymore. Dukes' crimes used to be so much more ugly and require so much more criminal intent than this. A suspended license is just plain laziness. He's become a shell of his former self.
If Dukes wants to be relevant in his chosen field again, he's really going to have to raise the stakes. Elijah: have you considered light treason?
- Old Gator - Apr 25, 2011 at 10:49 AM
He should be offered voluntary sterilization, so that when he rapes someone he won't be spreading his chromosomes for sociopathy and sheer unvarnished idiocy to the rest of the gene pool. If he declines, they should just cut his balls off.
- ezwriter69 - Apr 25, 2011 at 10:58 AM
And other than being a black man driving an expensive car in Tampa, he was stopped for????? Obviously not a traffic offense, or he'd have been charged with that too…
That said, this dude needs a brain transplant.
- Jonny 5 - Apr 25, 2011 at 11:38 AM
Maybe for having his license suspended???? I borrowed my friend's truck once a while back and was pulled over because his license was suspended. When I asked "WHY" I was pulled over, he said "you're driving a vehicle registered to someone with a suspended license". I'm glad I'm not a cop just because being labeled as racist or profiling every time I snag a person of color would wear my patience thin.
- clydeserra - Apr 25, 2011 at 3:49 PM
This doesn't sound right. What you are saying may be true, but it takes a lot of work to go from A-b-c on that one. First the licence plate has to be run, then the registered owner has to be identified as a having a suspended licence.
Again, I am not doubting your story, it just sounds like either your state has invested a ton of money into its state wide enforcement databases, or the cop was making an excuse after the fact.
As far as Dukes is concerned, there are many reasons he may have been pulled over, starting from a weave in the lane, to speeding. Also DWB is a possibility. but that 's for his attorney.
- Utley's Hair - Apr 25, 2011 at 11:53 AM
Last I heard, driving with a suspended license is a traffic offense, so there's that.
But, most traffic offenses are not arrestable offenses, so, he would not be charged with them—just ticketed or cited.
- Old Gator - Apr 25, 2011 at 2:54 PM
The technical term for the offense you describe is "DWB."
- xmatt0926x - Apr 25, 2011 at 4:03 PM
ez, your response is typical of the "they are picking on me again" attitude that is usually at the root of the problem for people like Dukes. Before assuming that he did nothing to be pulled over make sure you know that to be true before playing the tired old race card. Sure, maybe he was pulled over for "driving while black". It does happen. But with this clowns sordid history can't we just as well assume that he did in fact do something stupid to be pulled over? If all we can do is make a guess either way I'm betting on him doing something dumb as all pathetic , excuse-making hoods like him are inclined to do. Don't worry though. I'm sure the race card is being drawn up as we speak. I hear Gary Sheffield and Milton Bradley are his legal representation.
- jhorton83 - Apr 25, 2011 at 10:59 AM
This is about as shocking as Lenny Dykstra being in legal trouble again.
- BC - Apr 25, 2011 at 11:32 AM
This guy is bad news. He'll either be in jail or dead by the time he's 35.
- Utley's Hair - Apr 25, 2011 at 11:48 AM
Or somebody else will be as a result of his actions.
- educateyourselfb4speaking - Apr 25, 2011 at 12:30 PM
@Utley's hair-actually driving on a suspended license is a misdemeanor offense; third time is a felony and they are arrestable offenses and if a judge chooses you can do time in jail for it.
- Utley's Hair - Apr 25, 2011 at 12:50 PM
Okay. Nice handle, whoever you are. If your name is intended to call me out on my comment, you might want to change it to readtheoriginalpostb4replying.
I said that driving with a suspended license is a traffic offense—which it is. I said that in response to a comment claiming that he was not pulled over for a traffic offense. Was I incorrect? No.
I also said that most traffic offenses are not arrestable offenses. I did not say that driving with a suspended license was or was not an arrestable offense. Generally when people are arrested after being pulled over for traffic offenses, it is in response to something else, like DUI, not subjecting to a breathalyzer, drugs, resisting, heads rolling around in the back seat, etc.

Yeah I'm gonna first post this that's how much I hate sentry. Sorry to revive an old thread.
People hate him because he's a poorly created character in a comic book universe that doesn't need another one (other characters in the marvel universe that have shoddy origins have been accepted for legitimate reasons). His only redeeming quality is that he was extremely conflicted, but the dynamics of this character makes the marvel universe seem cheap regardless of this one redeeming quality (which did make for some interesting story). That being said I think that his strength and abilities need a cap in order for him to be more acceptable. There are things about the sentry that were refreshing but honestly they could've used already established characters to do those things... the whole super soldier serum thing just made me laugh the first time I read it. The only things I feel he resembles superman in is the tights, cape, and clean cut look... other than that they are really two different characters. At first glance it is something that just clicks though so it's no surprise that people make that initial assumption. After all superman is the first superhero of the modern age and he coined the tights and cape look that the sentry rocks it isn't a mere coincidence that the sentry was created like that. Maybe it was a jab back at DC for having taken shazam away from marvel. He's a generic character that needs to stay dead. And I hope more characters join him.

Very nice staff. Quiet. Beautiful oak trees. Overpriced. WiFi did not work at all. Two bathrooms for this park is unacceptable. They were not clean. We had to wait in line. It was about 30° and the bathroom window does not close. Too cold to shower. - GandolphJames
This is an older park about 5 miles off the highway. Good sized sites, gravel with concrete patios and picnic tables. Many of the travel trailers appear to be permanent. They are OK; not great, but not awful. The restrooms are self contained-toilet, sink and shower all in one room, and only one per gender. There are a lot of cable channels but the WIFI is weak at the sites. The park is OK for an overnight but we wouldn't suggest staying longer. It is overpriced at $40/night. - JJ1951
This was just an overnight stay for us, but the campground was easy to find and easy to navigate. Office was helpful and friendly. Park has many trees, but no problem to drive through. We did not unhook and used a pull-through. We liked this park and would stay there again. - Hoxiesgirl

Nice gravel layout sites on Lake Talquin with very good wifi, boat ramp. Very quiet location with great star viewing. Host was very helpful. Would have kayaked except for low temps. - RV Having Fun
This is a small municipal park right on a really large lake (boat ramp next to campground) with excellent bass fishing. All of the sites were paved and several were right along the lake. Many had excellent shade. Campground Wi-Fi worked well. We were the only occupants in the campground in mid-April. We would stay here again. - AirstreamSJ
This very compact park is located a few miles west of Tallahassee, on the south side of Lake Talquin. It's operated by Leon County. During our stay, shortly after an ice storm shut down the entire Florida panhandle, we were the only ones at the park. The restrooms were old but clean and serviceable. The park is adjacent to a boat landing which is popular with anglers. The rate shown includes all taxes. Our site was beautiful, a pull-through right on Lake Talquin. The reservation process is informal, done via email with an email response from the attendant. Our Verizon card and phone worked well at this site, along with numerous over-the-air TV stations. We were interested in biking and bird watching while at this park and were not disappointed. The trailhead for the 15 mile Tallahassee-St. Marks State Trail is about 10 miles from the campground, and the national wildlife refuge at St. Marks was about 25 miles away; both activities were great experiences. There is a Costco in Tallahassee for those who are members. We'd stay here again when in the area. - Jay Rutherford

2 bathrooms, only one working; dirty and old. No place to hang anything. Many people "living" there with no mufflers on their vehicles. Interior roads paved, sites are level, utilities all together in the rear, inconvenient to hook up side water and sewer. - Quilta
Older, run-down park. I stepped in dog-poop first thing upon arrival (bag sign). Park is next to low-end used car lot. At first I thought it was a junk yard. Long-term residents with old RVs and lots of junk outside. Not in a good part of town, either. A trip to nearby WalMart was scary. Staff was friendly, and our grassy site was level. However, I would not stay here again. - FranM
Close to I-10. Could be a great campground but for now it is pretty much run down with a lot of very old RVs. Sites were level but any rig with tow longer than 50' wili get their merit badge for close maneuvering. Next time I think we will try another place. Maybe some day new owners will acquire this place and bring it up to date. It really does have a good location in respect to I-10. - j&k

Long site in the back row, park was clean and tidy staff great, site level. Breakfast included and nibbles every afternoon / evening. We would not hesitate to return if we are in the area again. Highway noise was not an issue regardless of its proximity. - Peter McK
This is a very average KOA, just east of Tallahassee. It is mostly a large sandy field with hook-ups. The roads are sand/dirt and not smooth. The sites are not completely level but close enough. Hook-ups all worked fine. People in office very nice and efficient. The place has no charm but is OK for an overnight. If you are bothered by road noise, don't stay here - it is right on I-10 and you will hear 18-wheelers all night. - virginianola
This is a large park that could be wonderful. But, it is just a mess. Lots of long time residents in run down RVs parked everywhere. Junk and trash sitting around. Sandy sites are long and not level. No Cable. No wi-fi at sites. Many cabins available. Also a small lake that was a disgusting green.
At night it is so dark that walking the dog is a dangerous adventure. If the owners would just take the time and money to spend here it could really be a top park. - travelswithpuppies

Nice, clean, attractive park just as you get into Tallahassee from the east. Easy pull-throughs...nice and long. We have 61 feet for ours. Friendly, helpful, welcoming staff and an easy off and on I-10. The Wi-Fi is about the best we've found...and free.
We'd recommend this place. - Lastrick
We stayed overnight on our way to Disney World. What a great find !! The black top roads were great for the kids to ride their scooters and the sites were long enough for us not to have to disconnect our toad. Yes.. gravel sites but very level and perfect for an overnight or to spend several days. The Laundromat on site was immaculate too. We will stay again on our way back to Disney in December. - camping tigers
We stay here as a passing-through point as we leave FL and trek west. The location is great. Not far from I-10 and just off TN-90. Easy to get into Tallahassee. We stay in the sites numbered in the 40s. Stayed in site 41 this time. Sites are fine gravel, LONG, about 20 feet wide. They have a nice (open) dog park here too. If you NEED satellite from your roof, ask for a site up front at the entrance. We've stayed further into the campground in sites 41 through 44 and have gotten rooftop satellite to work looking through the trees - but it's not guaranteed.
We'd stay here again. - jbeletti

New orchid spike or root ?
Hello to all !
I am an avid lover of orchids and have been for three years now. My two last orchids died when i was away from my home and my roomate has to take care of them.
This spring, i bought a new one and it seems to be doing exceptionally well!
It just grew a new leaf at the bottom which is now reaching an inch and upon further inspection, seems to be sprouting either new roots or a new spike even!
With the attached photo, could any experts help me on devciding if this seems to be a baby spike? (It is growing between two leaves so needless to say, I am very hopeful!)
Thanks in advance :)
Definitely a root as stated above. Tip i learned when I first started growing: Root tips are green/translucent with a rounded tip. Spikes are shaped similar to a "mitten" at the tip and are usually a darker shade of green or slightly purple in color.
Depending on your location, now is the time for new roots and foliage growth (typically 1-3 leaves per year for phals) and if conditions are right you will see spikes emerging late fall to early winter when nighttime temps drop 10-15 degrees.
Good luck!

The introduction of information technologies into teaching and learning prompted educators to reexamine the spaces where learning takes place and to design new learning spaces that take fuller advantages of the possibilities that technology offers. The work done on learning spaces has been extremely valuable and serves as the foundation for an expanded look at other factors that affect learning and the context in which learning spaces exist. Those factors include space, but a broader look at the conditions and circumstances of learning reveals that learning is equally influenced by people, by technology and the resources it affords access to, and by the cultural backdrop against which learning takes place. These elements come together in a new, broader discussion of learning environments, which builds on the resources and knowledge generated about learning spaces.
The term learning environment encompasses learning resources and technology, means of teaching, modes of learning, and connections to societal and global contexts. The term also includes human behavioral and cultural dimensions, including the vital role of emotion in learning, and it requires us to examine and sometimes rethink the roles of teachers and students. The focus on information technology in education is expanding from the enhancement of learning spaces to include factors beyond hardware, software, and the network. The learning environment is a composite of human practices and material systems, much as an ecology is the combination of living things and the physical environment.

- Bridging the Gap: Building a Learning Environment in the Workplace, ELI paper, February 2014. Workplaces don't typically look like ideal learning environments. That gap reflects a way of thinking that is being replaced with a vision of workplaces designed to be learning organizations. Closing that gap can be a challenge, however, and this paper describes nine elements of learning and explores how and to what extent they appear in most workplaces.

The owner is very lovely and helpful and the beds and rooms in this new establishment are very comfortable. The kitchen is downstairs in the house but you get full use of it and they even have sharp knives - rare to come across in hostels. If the weather is nice there are tables and chairs to sit outside on and the town is small that everything is close by. There is so much. To do in Pucon expect to stay more than two or three nights.

Airs Thursday, October 16 at 7 p.m. Centenary College hosted a U.S. Senate Debate at Marjorie Lyons Playhouse on Tuesday, October 14, at 7 p.m. Red River Radio will broadcast this debate this Thursday, October 16 at 7 p.m. The participants in this debate are U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu, 6th District Congressman Bill Cassidy, and Rob Maness. The sponsors of the event include Centenary College, Louisiana Public Broadcasting (LPB), the Council for A Better Louisiana (CABL), AARP, and the Shreveport Chamber of Commerce. The debate is hosted by LPB's President and CEO Beth Courtney and Council for a Better Louisiana (CABL) President and CEO Barry Erwin and questions will also be presented by LPB's Shauna Sanford and a panel of political analysts.
Airs Sunday, July 13 at 6 p.m. Would a reduction in penalties encourage more usage and lead the state down a path to legalization? Mandatory drug sentences cost Louisiana taxpayers millions of dollars to incarcerate people charged with simple possession of marijuana. Would a reduction in penalties encourage more usage and lead the state down a path to legalization? Or does Louisiana - which ranks among the top ten states for drug use - need further reinforcements in its battle against this "gateway drug"? Louisiana Public Square explores the pros and cons of legalization on "Pot or Not? The Decriminalization Debate."
Airs, Sunday, October 20 at 6 p.m. A national report says Louisiana charter school students learn faster than their peers in traditional public schools. That's not the case, though, if those charters are in suburban or rural parishes. There are over 100 charter schools throughout the state with the nation's largest percentage of public charter school students in New Orleans. So, how effective are charter schools in Louisiana? Are they delivering promised educational dividends or putting taxpayers' dollars at risk? And when measuring success, do charter schools compete with traditional public schools on a level playing field in the areas of admissions and accountability?
Airs Sunday, September 15 at 6 p.m. The U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down the Defense of Marriage Act in June will allow some federal benefits for same-sex couples that were legally married elsewhere but live in Louisiana. But what other impact will it have in the state? Louisiana passed a constitutional amendment in 2004 that defines marriage as "between one man and one woman" and denies the recognition of gay unions. In light of the High Court's decision, could Louisiana's Defense of Marriage Amendment be challenged? Does Louisiana's current position on gay marriage threaten the recruitment of employers to the state? And do legislative attempts to recognize gay rights achieve equal protection at the expense of another's religious freedom? Louisiana Public Square pursues the answers to these questions and more when it explores the issues involved when you're "Gay in Louisiana."

Sochi organizers: we guarantee snow for 2014 Games
SOCHI, Russia (AP)
Exactly one year before the opening ceremony of the Winter Games, Sochi organizers are promising there will be enough snow during the Olympics even if temperatures in the subtropical region are high.
Russia is marking the one-year countdown Thursday to the Sochi Games, which are considered a matter of national pride.
Temperatures at Sochi's Krasnaya Polyana ski resort hovered about 50 degrees this week after a cold snap the previous week when athletes competed in test events amid snowstorms with temperatures dipping to 20 degrees.
On Thursday, temperatures reached 66 degrees in Sochi and 59 in the mountains.
Dmitry Chernyshenko, head of the Sochi organizing committee, said Sochi's snow-making system and other technologies will enable organizers to ''cope with any challenges of the weather.''
He said ''we can guarantee that the snow will be there.''

text: Olympics: Joy for Fenninger, USA, Games hit by horror accident on Dec 31, 1969 @ 7:33 PM Anna Fenninger swept to Olympic super-G gold while the USA edged ice hockey rivals Russia Saturday, but gloom hit Sochi when a freestyle skier suffered a broken back in a horrific fall. Austrian 24-year-old Fenninger showed off her smooth and technically sound giant slalom skills, conquering the demanding course to clock 1min 25.52sec for victory. Only 12 of the leading 30 women managed to finish the 2.2km-long Rosa Khutor run -- with just three of the first 10 getting safely home. Germany's Maria Hoefl-Riesch won silver at 0.55sec to go with the gold she won in the super-combined, while combined silver medallist Nicole Hosp of Austria took bronze, a further 0.11sec adrift. "You have to be so tactical. I can't describe my emotions, I am really stunned. I didn't think it was going so well while I was going down," said Fenninger. "I was very good up top, not so good at the bottom but in the middle section, there was still the possibility to go faster." Switzerland's Dominique Gisin, who shared gold with Slovenia's Tina Maze in the downhill, was one of the skiers to crash out while Maze finished fifth just behind downhill bronze medallist Lara Gut of Switzerland. In men's ice hockey, T.J. Oshie scored the shootout winner as the USA defeated Russia 3-2 in a nail-biting hockey clash to decide the latest chapter of the two giants' historic rivalry. Pavel Datsyuk had two goals in regulation for the Russians while Joe Pavelski and Cam Fowler scored powerplay goals for the Americans with both coming while Russian forward Alexander Radulov was sitting in the penalty box. - Disallowed the goal - With the score tied 2-2 in the third period, the Russians appeared to score the winner, but the goal was disallowed, apparently because the net had been knocked out of place. Away from the action, there was a sombre mood at the Extreme Park when Russian freestyle skier Maria Komissarova sustained a broken back in a fall while training on the ski-cross course. The state-owned R-Sport news agency quoted a source familiar with the situation as saying the 23-year-old had sustained a fractured vertebrae while it was later revealed that Komissarova had undergone a six-hour operation to repair the damage to her spine. "Maria Komissarova received a serious injury today during training. She was urgently taken to hospital," the Russian freestyle federation said. "Doctors carried out the necessary examination and took the decision to operate on her on the spot." The balmy weather conditions continued to pose headaches for schedulers, with a high of 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit) recorded at the Black Sea coastal venues in the early afternoon Up in the mountains of Rosa Khotur, it was 13 degrees Celsius. Sunday's men's super-G race will start earlier than planned at 10:00 am (0600 GMT) to make the most of firmer conditions. - Free of weather-related strife - Despite the bright sunshine, which has seen some competitors race in shorts and T-shirts, organisers insist the Games remain free of weather-related strife. "We have had no sports cancelled or moved. Everything is going according to plan," said International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams. In all seven golds were to be decided on Saturday. Russia's Victor Ahn won his fourth gold in short track when he stormed to victory in the men's 1,000m. Ahn, who won three golds for his native South Korea at the 2006 Turin Olympics before switching nationality, triumphed in a time of 1min 25.325sec. Poland's Zbigniew Brodka won a dramatic 1,500m speed skating race by just three-thousandths of a second from devastated Dutchman Koen Verweij. Sweden took a thrilling gold in the women's 4x5km cross country relay, overtaking Finland and Germany in the last metres while in women's short track, China's Zhou Yang defended her 1,500m title. Later Saturday, Poland's Kamil Stoch aims to become only the third ski jumper to win both the normal and large hill golds at the same Olympics. Swiss ski jumper Simon Ammann, twice a double gold medallist, is seeking a record fifth gold. Latvian brothers Martins and Tomass Dukurs are among the favourites in the men's skeleton. dj/jw

tomato gone bushy 5 ft tall 4 ft wide
This is my first time Ive grown tomato. I bought it in march 3inch high. I potted into bigger pot twice since. I let it grow and now its 5foot tall. I read that you need to cut off any sideshoot that appears. But only just found out now. The plant has massive branchs that maybe should have been nipped out ages ago. There is only 6 little green ones spread about. It looks like a tree! No idea type cos its label was just a tomato plant. Am i right that it should be grown with the main stem only ;) there is only few bunches of little yellow flowers. Have i ruined it?
There's no need to cut off "side shoots" (aka "suckers"). I was brought up to do just that, but I soon realized that the only thing it was accomplishing was to reduce the number of tomatoes I got: an important issue in dry summers when we lost most of the lower tomatoes to thirsty wildlife or to severe, moldy cracks.
Now I let the first suckers grow and only remove the later suckers if it looks like the plant will get so thick I won't be able to monitor the center of the plant for hornworms or disease (there's more likelihood of fungal disease in humid or wet situations if the foliage gets too thick).
yumtomatoes is right that you may have over-fertilized. Here's my epic basics-of-fertilizer-and-dangers-of-excess-nitrogen post from another thread:
It's the huge 9th post -- can't miss it.
Another possible explanation is the planting location: how many hours of sun does the plant receive? Tomatoes should have at least 6 hours of direct sunlight. However, there's a guy in Minnesota who used to post here who had great luck with tomatoes which didn't get that much direct sun; I suspect he had what's called "bright shade."
I meant to mention the issue of hot weather. Tomato blossoms can't be fertilized if daytime temps are over 90-95 and overnight temps are above 75.
Cherries (including grapes, currants, etc.) generally handle high temps better than large-fruited types.
Tomato blossoms can't be fertilized if daytime temps are over 90-95 and overnight temps are above 75.
This refers to pollination rather than adding fertilizer. Pollination fails -- i.e. there can be no fruit -- in particularly hot weather.
Sorry to be so unclear.
" 'If you remove the suckers the fruits will get bigger.'
Sorry but that is mostly myth. Fruit size is genetically determined."
Is there any scientific data disproving this?
IIRC, people who are trying to win a Largest Tomato contest do some pruning, but I can't remember if they prune branches or only flowers.
For those of us who are looking for edibles rather than a single prize-winner, it's a case of which would we rather have: five beefsteaks that average 16 oz. ... or a dozen that average 15 oz.? (Sorry, yum: that's a totally unscientific estimate.)
The largest fruit in my garden so far is a super-wide, somewhat V-shaped beefsteak on my German Queen. The shape is a dead giveaway that it resulted from an abnormal bloom (fused blossom, megabloom, whatever) -- as many large beefsteaks do. No catfacing: it's a real beauty. As it happens, that tomato's not growing on the main stem. If I'd removed that sucker branch, I wouldn't have had that particular blossom.
I don't care how large or small my Romas are -- I'm looking for the greatest yield per plant, which is definitely not going to happen if I start pruning branches off! I have three Romas from Bonnie, purchased a few weeks apart. The ripe fruit on the older plant are much larger than the ripe fruit on the younger plant. I assume that planting time was a factor, or perhaps the weather. (The other younger plant had an accident and has no ripe fruit yet.)
"For those of us who are looking for edibles rather than a single prize-winner, it's a case of which would we rather have: five beefsteaks that average 16 oz. ... or a dozen that average 15 oz.? "
Well if the difference is only 1 oz, I can see that not mattering. But what I care about is that I get a decent size tomato if it is a beefsteak. So what would I rather have - 5, 16 oz fruits or 10, 8oz fruits? I would rather have 5, 16 oz fruits because I don't like a lot of skin and large fruits have a lower skin to inside ratio.
Is there any scientific data disproving this?
Disproving what? Science doesn't DISprove, it either proves or fails to prove.
Science has proven that one's genetics, one's DNA (be it tomato DNA or people DNA) determines characteristics like eye and skin color as well as tomato color, height, tomato leaf shape, tomato color, tomato plant and fruit size, # of locular cavities, etc.?
And yes there are ample scientific studies done that show that any increase in tomato fruit size on plants which have been heavily sucker-pruned when compared to plants that have NOT been sucker pruned is minimal, if any. Further that that increased size, if it occurs, could just as easily be attributed to growing conditions as to any pruning done.
In other words science has proven that the old myth that 'suckers' suck energy from the plant is just that - a myth. The photosynthesis energy gained from the leaves on those 'suckers' actually provides additional energy to the plant.
As already mentioned, depending on growing conditions, removing all but 1 of the blooms from a cluster of blooms 'may' slightly increase the size of the fruit that develops from the remaining bloom. But any increase in size is still limited by the genetics of the variety used. A cherry plant will not produce a 6-8 oz. fruit no matter what you do and a Roma won't produce a 1 lb. roma tomato.
"Disproving what? Science doesn't DISprove, it either proves or fails to prove."
I disagree. What the data from properly designed randomized, controlled studies can tell you is whether to reject the null hypothesis. Rejecting the null hypothesis is synonymous with disproving the null hypothesis.
As far as what I was asking above, I will rephrase it for clarity's sake. I was asking whether or not there is any scientific evidence supporting the belief that pruning does not lead to larger fruit. There sure are a lot of people who believe it does lead to larger fruit.
Of course, just because lots of people believe something doesn't mean it is true. That is why I was asking if there is any scientific evidence.
My garden buddy prunes. I don't. He always gets better tomatoes, but his place is in a better location and my greenhouse is too shady. I keep telling him to try leaving one alone some season and I'll try pruning. But old habits die hard and we both can't stop following our old methods.
It's a simple enough experiment to try yourself and answer the question in your particular garden.

Toronto Fire close to hiring new recruits
Budget cuts have left the service dangerously understaffed, say union leaders.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Following lengthy negotiations and compromise, Toronto Fire has the go-ahead to hire a new batch of recruits.
If council approves the decision made by the community development committee, it will be a significant victory for union leaders who for months have been warning that the Ford administration's budget cuts have left the public at risk.
Last year, Toronto Fire was forced to hold off on two hiring classes, which are typically made up of about 40 to 45 recruits each. Another was deferred earlier this year.
At present, the service is down about 126 frontline firefighters from the approved compliment of 3,176, which includes firefighters, administrative staff and management.
Ed Kennedy, president of the Toronto Professional Firefighters Association, said the cuts are endangering both the public and firefighters.
"We're getting by. We're getting lucky. And sooner or later … people are going to pay the price," he said.
In a markedly less alarmist tone, acting fire chief Ron Jenkins said the service is managing the situation with reduced numbers, but would of course welcome more staff.
"Certainly we need to fill our vacancies, but we need to fill those vacancies in accordance with the budget allotment that we have. I think we've made progress here today and we'll continue to monitor," he said.
Toronto Fire — which has about a $370 million budget — has had a tough few years, as a number of outside agencies, including KPMG during the 2011 core service review, have criticized the service's slow response time record and management style.
Jenkins said the service is making progress and has shaved average response time down 30 seconds, to about 7 minutes and 7 seconds, but that's still well above the target 6 minutes or less.
Jenkins' talking points are a departure from those of his predecessor, Chief William Stewart, who behind the scenes sounded alarm bells about the dangerous of staff gapping.
Kennedy said he hasn't seen the new data and finds it hard to believe response times are coming down, given the staff shortages.
Councillor Giorgio Mammoliti, chair of the community and recreation committee, said Tuesday's decision was important because emergency services should be a priority.
"If we're going to put money anywhere, it should be there," he said.
This fall, city staff are to have finished a comprehensive analysis of Toronto's emergency services. The report will look at issues with Toronto Fire and EMS and consider whether it makes sense to merge the two.
Without the committee compromise, Mammoliti said, the fire service would probably not have been able to make any hires until after that report was released.
If the decision is approved by the full city council next month, the new recruits should be on the streets by year's end.

We have stayed here a few times because it is convenient to Ocala where we have family. We mainly stay here when the state park is full. The positives are the staff who are very friendly and accommodating, and the fact that they accept Passport for a few nights. The park is apparently popular with a certain demographic because they seem quite busy. However, it has many drawbacks for us. First, the interior roads are narrow for a large RV. Even the handful of sites at the entrance, which are long enough, are narrow and challenging to get into without running through the lawn. The sites we have stayed in are noisy - either from highway noise, power line buzzing from the substation that surrounds/ runs through the campground or a combination of both. It's rather unsettling to have a power plant directly behind your site - we expected to wake up with our hair standing on end or water spontaneously boiling. We have never had any success getting on the WiFI. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: May, 2014 - $13.00
We stayed here about six weeks fro May 1 to mid June. We had a very nice end site (222). At first look the park is not appealing because of the large power facility in front. The older sites referred to at the historic district are narrow and shadeless. The back of the park (I was told by staff) is about five years old. It is very well laid out with mature trees and nice landscaping. Power, water, and cable were excellent. Tengonet wifi was free and probably the fastest Tengonet I've experienced. There are two dog parks which our four dogs enjoyed daily. Showers were clean and large. Clubhouse and pool are excellent facilities. Laundry is also large and well maintained with large screen TV. There is a driving range, horse shoes, shuffleboard, pool table and Foosball. Ball as well as a TV room with huge TV. Interior roads are all well paved and of ample width. All sites have a concrete patio and some have concrete pads while others are gravel. Sites are all very level. It is obvious a lot of planning and work went into the design. Staff was all very friendly and helpful. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: March, 2014 - $37.00
We stayed 2 days on one of the cheap sites. Very friendly park, but our site was near the large power grid with big electrical towers and there was a lot of road noise which made it difficult to sleep. Also. lots of ants. The park is nicer in the back where the premium sites are. Would stay here again, but only on a premium site. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Travel Trailer.Undo
Date of Stay: November, 2013 - $15.00
We made our reservations late in the winter of 2013 for the winter of 2013-2014. When we checked in we were told the rent had gone up and would be $10 a month more than the agreed price. I guess we expect people to keep their word. Also the Wi-Fi was the worst we have ever had. It seemed the laundry was small for the size of the park during the busy winter months. The seasonal campers that have been returning to the park for years are very cliquish and not very welcoming. We were not impressed.

Date of Stay: November, 2013 - $26.00
After reading previous reviews, we expected to be wow-ed by this park; however, we weren't. It is mainly comprised of long term and/or seasonal campers. It was clean and well-kept. There are about 5 sites right up front that are pull-throughs and seemed to be assigned only to overnighters and short term campers. The interior roads are narrow as are the sites. Our site was plenty long enough, but we barely fit in the width. We had to walk in the grass to get in and out of the RV. Cable worked well, WI-FI was on and off. It is very noisy in the spots up front as you are right by a very busy road. This is the first place I have made a reservation that required a deposit of more than half the stay. The lady that made the reservation was very confused, and it took much longer than needed. When we arrived, they tried to charge us the in-season rate rather than off-season. However, this was quickly remedied when it was brought to their attention. I'm not sure if we would stay here again or not. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo

Rate reflects Passport America. This is our third visit, going back over the past 8 years. In our opinion they have gone from a 6 to 9 to 10. What wonderful improvements!! This park could be a model for how to build and run an RV park. The pull-through site we had required NO leveling. All connections were appropriately placed and worked well. They have not crammed in sites to make money, but have left trees in place, have green spaces and honor nature and the earth by being as green as possible. We used the pool and they had a stack of noodles and floats for folks to use. We noticed the shuffle board and horse shoes available and they even have a free driving range for golfers with clubs to borrow stacked for the golfer. This is a wonderful place that keeps getting better. We will definitely stop again. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: April, 2013 - $30.00
This is an outstanding place to stay, a lot for the price. Concrete pads, plenty of shade trees, clean showers, cable, and many, many other amenities. We only stayed one night, but may stay longer next time through. The $30.00 per night includes military discount. Highly recommended!

The rate reflected is a rally rate. The management was very accommodating with the clubhouse and kitchen use for our group. Our group enjoyed it so much that it is booked again for next year. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo

What a wonderful park, from the check in to the check out nothing but praise for the owners and 6 month residents in creating such a well thought out park. New pads, bathrooms all ADA compliant very clean and private. The laundry is spacious complete with a flat screen TV and a dedicated wash machine for rugs and dog beds. The club house looks like it is the place to be when the season is happening, The pool is very clean, the deck providing ample comfortable seating. Dogs not only allowed but paraded around. Very close to the Withlacoochee Trail. Looking forward to staying here again. The only ding, have to drive to everything. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo

We stayed in the park three consecutive winters as snow birds a total of 250 days. So we know these facilities. It is a very nice park with good RV sights. All roads are paved. They have a very good laundry, recreation hall, pool and lots of activities. This service oriented park has two full time employees who are excellent. There a lot of nice people in the park. Groups made up of six month residents are quite cliquish. There are some intimidating staff that need to be attended to. We are moving on.

Campground is one of the friendliest we've ever visited. Wi-Fi and cable worked fine. There are some old, permanent structures near the front of the campground. However, in the rear, where short and monthly RV rigs sites are located was fine. Nice pool. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: January, 2012 - $18.00
We stayed here in the winter of 2012 for 3+ months. The management are very friendly & helpful for just about any need that may arise, RV related or not. There are a lot of snowbirds that stay here each year. They are very friendly & welcoming. There are a lot of activities going on through out winter while we were here. We did not participate in them, we were here to work in the local area & just didn't have the time. They also have a few recently remodeled park models that are for rent. My brother & his wife rented one for a week. The price was right & the unit was comfortable. There is a rails to trails bike/walk/run/horse riding trail within 1 mile of the RV resort that I rode almost every day I could. This area is a great place to kayak, there are some of the best places in FL with in a 30 min drive. If we are ever back in this area we would definitely stay here again. Price reflects monthly rate for choice space. We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: January, 2012 - $25.00
Really enjoyed our stay here. Lots of activities for adults (kids would be bored), and the "regulars" were very helpful and welcoming. Excellent heated pool, but can get crowded on warm days. Dog friendly and everyone keeps it clean. Beverly Hills does not have much to offer, but anything needed is in surrounding towns 8-10 miles away. Owners very helpful and friendly. Stayed here 40 days, and will definitely return! We camped at Sandy Oaks RV Park & Mobile Home Community in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: December, 2011 - $24.00
Sandy Oaks is a friendly, welcoming community offering many generously sized sites with a lot of landscaping for shade and privacy. Basic utilities are very good; Wi-Fi is fairly good; AT&T phone and data service are good. The park offers a quiet setting near the Withlacoochee Bike Trail plus has a nice pool, clubhouse and library on site. The price is based on the weekly rate. We would be happy to stay here again.

Date of Stay: September, 2011 - $17.00
Rate is Passport America. We camped here 4 years ago and I gave them a "6" but noted they had big plans so should improve. BOY, HAVE THEY IMPROVED! A whole new section has opened with pull throughs, trees, fire circles for groups, and beautiful landscaping. Being "green freaks" we noted that the lights around the park are capped so there is limited ambient light going up & use CFLs; they have a very good recycling program; and "doggie waste" bags are available all over. The club house was just being put up 4 years ago and now is a wonderful facility with large screen TV, kitchen, fireplace and access to restrooms. It has the heated (salt filtered) pool right outside and there is a large patio cover for those who do not need all the sun. There are tables outside the clubhouse under a cover for the nicer days when eating outside is desired. As mentioned, the new sites have kept as many trees as possible. When trees were taken out, the wood was harvested and used for counter tops, molding, and even a couple of chairs. All the woodwork was beautiful and added to the charm of the campground. Our site was in the older section (our choice) and they have not upgraded the cable to these sites yet; the new sites are on an internal satellite and provide great coverage. The only downside to the campground is the high tension wires over part of the camp that detracts visually and may concern some for health reasons for long term residents. However, we did not note any hum from the wires or sub-station as we did last time. Great improvements over the past 4 years. Looking forward to coming back and staying longer.

"This is the most crowded I've ever seen Headliner's," a girl shouted to me as the opening act, "Larry & his Flask" seriously revved up to wind their show down.

This past Tursday, March 8th, service was held by Heat and friends on their "Stewed, Screwed, & Tattooed" tour.
