So I'm in a random with my rogue alt, my XP bar is pixels away from dinging 68, and we've just entered the last room. I get disconnected. I log back in but get stuck at a full-blue-bar load screen for almost four minutes. By the time I get in, the group is disbanded, but apparently the server didn't figure out I was offline until after the final boss died.
How do I know? Because now I have the achievement for killing him (first time there on that toon), and I'm level 68. Was 67 before the disconnect, 68 after I get back. Okay, so, chuckles all around, now I have a funny story to tell about dinging while offline.
Except... since I missed the whole "welcome to 68, here's what you get" popups, I have no idea what just unlocked. Before 4.0, it'd just be "even numbered level, time to see a trainer," but with the new scheme I have no idea what happens to rogues at 68. I don't have a new talent point. The trainer has nothing for me, and there are no new "go see your trainer" flashy lights in my three ability spellbook tabs.
Is 68 just one of the occasional nothing-happens levels?
Must be, if you look through spell book it tells you what you unlock at what levels. I think you're perfectly fine. when loading with the bar at loading screen your char appears in game, just its still loading for you, but you are there so its all fine.

Uh....you don't get something trainable/tangible like that anymore. Once you learn an ability it auto-upgrades while you're levelling. It's not the way it used to be.
Patch notes would tell you this, but you probably don't read them. The game doesn't make you a new level and says to itself "well, he dinged but he went offline so lol I'm gonna not give him things".
If your trainer and spellbook have nothing, and you can't put 2+2 together, then......yeah.
You aren't actually reading the question, are you?
There are other things besides talents and new abilities granted when leveling up. (A trio of glyphs is the easiest example.) I would like to know what, if any, happens at 68. Nothing seems to be new in any of the usual places, so I thought I'd ask before assuming that 68 was a rare "empty" level. So sorry if you couldn't handle that question.
Patch notes do not list what gets opened at each level. Good try at an insult, but fail. This has nothing to do with auto-scaling spells/abilities.
The game doesn't make you a new level and says to itself "well, he dinged but he went offline so lol I'm gonna not give him things".
It's the graphical popup that was missed, not the actual unlocking.

Hi: 10° Lo:1°
By Connie Osborne Friday 25 July 2014 Updated: 25/07 09:11
HEWELL Bowling Club celebrated its 100th birthday with a special match against top players from across the country.
The Tardebigge based club marked its centenary year with a visit from Bowls England at the start of July where a commemorative tree was planted.
The Holyoakes Lane site was first founded in 1941 by the Earl of Plymouth who lived at Hewell Grange and had the green laid for local residents to enjoy.
As part of its celebrations St Fagans Bowling Club, who are from the Earl's other estate near Cardiff and played Hewell at the opening of the green in 1914, played the team again losing 132 to 177.
Their captain, Clare Collett, also unveiled a special centenary clock.
Also planned for this year are visits from teams including the Barbarians and Midland Counties Association.
The Imps - a team made up of players from counties in the Midlands and East Anglia- will also play against Hewell in September where the president will be asked to bury a time capsule.
New members for both the men's and ladies' teams are invited to try out, whether they are beginners or experienced.
Anyone interested in joining should contact Sheila Williams on 01527 524 093 or Paul Heathcote on 01527 404 495.

Mini Greenhouse
Hi I am hoping for some insight regarding growing cacti from seed. My boyfriend gave me a mini greenhouse (plastic egg, soil, and seeds) kit a few weeks ago and I followed the instructions however I think I used too much water and it looked like it was starting to mold (cobweb looking strings?). So in doing some research I found that this was commonly possible and the only way for the plants to survive was to repot. I bought some cacti soil from Home Depot, fertilizer, and a small pot. Did my best to transfer the tiny guys but... they all died. SO... I bought a new kit online and want to try again since I already have all the supplies and my bf was disappointed that I killed the first ones. I will definitely water less but I am mainly wondering how long to keep them in the plastic egg before transfering them. Do I take the lid off at some point? They were pretty small when I transfered them to the pot the first time and I don't think they were strong enough to survive. Any insight or advice is welcome. Keep in mind I am new to this and I know my past attempt wasn't the greatest. Thanks!
Alas, we all learn from our mistakes. Don't be frightened to ask dumb questions. I don't grow from seed cause I am just not that nurturing. There are many on here that do. Me, Those little thngs scare me. I grow cactus because they are forgiving of neglect . They love my neglect. We are a match made in heaven, I just need to get them at a teenager stage.
Quite right! My first attempt failed miserably, but yeah, cactus seedlings are really high-maintenance. Just the right amount of humidity, light, watering...
Germination requirements vary quite a bit, but generally, the seeds need to be kept moist, set on the surface of the seed starting mix, kept at a somewhat high temperature of, for example, 77 F, and given an increasing gradual change of lighting. First couple weeks, shade, then indirect sun, and into a month or two they will probably be ready for full sun. The humidity will also need to be gradually decreased once they have sprouted.
There are a lot of excellent posts on this topic for cacti, and they are much more descriptive! I highly recommend referring to those posts!
Hope you are sucessful in your efforts!!

Today, I had my second prenatal appointment and they changed my due date to the 16th instead of the 22nd, so I am now 12 weeks and 1 day, finally out of the woods! And on top of everything, it's my birthday and I was able to hear my baby's heartbeat for the very first time and that was the best birthday present I could have ever asked for. :)
Due date change/Heard HB :)

Isn't it great to hear the heartbeat for the first time. This is my first child and I am 11 weeks and just heard it a few weeks ago. It was amazing...I almost cried :) Sometimes I feel like I am so much more excited than my husband. This is my 1st child and his 3rd. I know he's happy, but I can't help but wonder if the thrill will be there with it being his 3rd ...any1 have any experiece with this?

Ellias Anderson C.A ( Known as captain A)
An answer
From heaven to the earth and the platform sights
I can carry heavy things such a huge light
I am waiting for good news since long times
I have prayed a lot unless my dirty crimes
Every time I just hear the word: no…no…it couldn't happen or something like that
I suggest you to not looking for black birds and bats in the cave, you can find lots of them in my mind, and I mean a black bat!
I'm always in stress to hearing the word yes
I need somebody to clean this mind from a heavy mess
I want to weep, I want to shout, and I want to cry
Looking for a positive option, looking for a sweet hi
Destroyed from inside, a damaged inner soul
That white and clean face is changed by a depress coal
Lost plans, the feeling of ignorance, and my pervious soul that was unleash
Are cracking this poor body and all my wishes
When the voice of my near people goes up,
I like to tear my clothes, I like to go on a place that is top, but again I will hear the satanic word nope!
For God's sake …the soul that is rake…
My hands have to save me from the NOT lake!
Looking for an ANSWER, it can save me, can give me a fresh feeling
My soul will be blessed; it will be calm down, then ready for feeding!

Chicken and rice - a classic combination in many cultures. Work your way around the world with chicken fried rice, chicken risotto, chicken and rice soups, chicken jambalaya, authentic arroz con pollo and chicken biryani... just to name a few.
A delicious and hearty chicken soup. Onion, celery, rice and chicken are simmered together in a creamy chicken stock. Serve for lunch or dinner. This soup is especially good served on a winter's day.
This is my version of Pumpkin Risotto. A very creamy risotto with feta melted through it. My whole family love this recipe and I get cheers from my kids when I tell them we are having it for dinner. You can use butternut squash instead of pumpkin, if desired.
A flavorful rice dish from Malaysia with chicken that tastes great with either boiled, roasted, grilled or fried.
This is such an easy chicken, pumpkin and spinach risotto to make. A deliciously different meal that the entire family will love. If you have any leftover chicken in the fridge from a roast, this is a great way to use it.
This recipe makes my favourite chicken dish. Chicken, peppers, mushrooms, olives and rice are simmered together, until cooked. The addition of green olives, adds a special depth of flavour that is hard to explain.
This is the perfect comfort food for any day of the week. Chicken is simmered with rice in a creamy stock. Serve with crusty fresh bread for a substantial lunch or dinner.
This is my slow cooker version of a favourite recipe of mine. You can use white rice, or a mixture of brown and wild rice.
I found this recipe whilst looking for inexpensive meals to cook for the family....great hit and costs about a fiver to feed a family of four!!
A Spanish classic. A basic paella with chorizo slices, chicken, green peas and saffron rice is easy to make.
Tasty, Cajun-style one pot dish of chicken, rice and vegetables is baked in the oven. This recipe is kindly provided by Judy.

The Production Rating: 3.5/5We learn in Perry Mason Returns that Perry (Raymond Burr) has been an appellate court justice in the years since he gave up his practice, and Della Street (Barbara Hale) is now the executive assistant to a manufacturing mogul (Patrick O'Neal). When he's murdered on the eve before changing his will and cutting out his entire family from his massive fortune, suspicion falls on Della Street since the murderer was outfitted in a dress and shoes exactly like those belonging to Ms. Street. The viewer is allowed to see that the murderer was actually a man dressed in women's clothes who leaves one of Ms. Street's earrings at the scene of the crime which helps implicate her. Mason resigns his judgeship and returns to defend Della from the murder charge. With the death of Mason's investigator Paul Drake, they call on his investigator son Paul Drake, Jr. (William Katt, Barbara Hale's real-life son) to do the legwork. This first return case, a familiar domestic murder mystery with a slew of suspects all part of the family either by blood, marriage, or business ties, is a good one and makes it understandable why it drew such high ratings and a clamor for more Mason adventures.
How disappointing, then, that the follow-up, The Case of the Notorious Nun, formulaically copies many of the tropes of the previous story: a disguised killer seen by the viewer who implicates an innocent party (this time a nun) and who is later rubbed out by the unrevealed person who hired him, an embezzlement subplot which forms part of the basis for the murderer's motive, an affair taking place among the suspects one of whom is married, and Paul Drake's last minute discovery of a vital clue that cracks the mystery and allows Mason to win his case. As the weakest of the mysteries in the box, the pacing seems long, many of the suspects insufficiently viable, and the mystery less involving than the others.
Tighter and more imaginative plotting occurs in the next two stories: The Case of the Shooting Star (a famous talk show host is shot live before an audience of forty million people, and Perry is persuaded to defend him in a seemingly unwinnable case) and The Case of the Lost Love, the lost love in question being a beloved woman (Jean Simmons) thirty-five years from Perry's past whose husband is accused of murdering a blackmailer who is trying to prevent her from being appointed to a highly coveted senate seat in Colorado. This second case gives the viewer the best chance of the six included movies of adding up the clues and arriving at the killer's identity before Perry reveals all in court.
Things really percolate in the box's last two items. The Case of the Sinister Spirit is unquestionably the most atmospheric and suspenseful of the six films in the set and the one which contains the best constructed mystery with the most startling denouement. It involves the murder of a Stephen King-like author and takes place in a sinister hotel filled with macabre booby traps and an air of real tension. Almost as good is The Case of the Murdered Madam as a former brothel manager (Ann Jillian) newly married and away from the life holds a surveillance audio recording on four men planning a bank fraud. She turns up dead killed with her husband's gun and naturally he's implicated, but it's actually the four men at the meeting who are the prime suspects in the case, any of whom might be the killer.
Raymond Burr and Barbara Hale may have gained a few pounds and lost a step or two in the nearly two decades since they last played the intrepid counselor and his formidable assistant, but their relationship is even warmer and more involving than in the original series, and it's always a pleasure to see them work together, even though Burr is saddled with a bothersome knee injury for several of the films and must use either a cane or crutches in most of them. William Katt's Paul Drake, Jr. is a more bumbling and scattered investigator than his efficient father was, and the producers go out of their way to give the handsome Katt a potential romantic interest in almost every one of these films (both father and son Drake seem to have had an eye for the ladies), but his skills as an investigator seem to deteriorate after a promising start. The writers have developed a frosty camaraderie between Mason and Drake that plays for comedy as much as drama as Perry must endure his young private eye's mishaps and miscalculations.
This collection of six made-for-television films boasts a top-notch array of guest stars abetting the leading players. Among the most famous faces seen in these six broadcasts are Holland Taylor, Richard Anderson, Al Freeman, Jr., Patrick O'Neal, Timothy Bottoms, Jon Cypher, James McEachin (one of the surlier and more unlikable homicide lieutenants in the series), Gerald S. O'Loughlin, Tom Bosley, David Ogden Stiers (the D.A. who faces off against Perry in five of the six cases), Arthur Hill, Joe Penny, Ron Glass, Alan Thicke, Ivan Dixon, Edward Winter, Barbara Parkins, Jennifer O'Neal, Jean Simmons, Robert Mandan, Robert Walden, Stephen Elliott, Gene Barry, Robert Stack, Kim Delaney, Leigh Taylor-Young, Vincent Baggetta, Anthony Geary, Bill Macy, John Rys-Davies, and Ann Jillian.
Video Rating: 3.5/5 3D Rating: NA
The films are presented in their broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1. Image quality improves as one goes deeper into the box set. The early films seem to have had the least work and display some dust specks and some smeared color in certain scenes. Later episodes, especially the final three, display very clean transfers with good to very good color renditions and accurate flesh tones. Sharpness comes and goes within the episodes possibly due to soft focus photography on some of the older players and some of the ladies, but that's not a consistency throughout. Black levels are only average to slightly above, and in lower light levels, details can become crushed in the shadows. Because there is no anamorphic enhancement, there is some aliasing and moiré patterns to be seen in most of the films. Each film has been divided into 9 chapters.
Audio Rating: 4/5The Dolby Digital 2.0 sound mixes on these TV-movies are nicely done. Perry Mason Returns has a mono mix which Dolby Prologic decodes into the center channel. It's strong and clear with easily discernible dialogue which is never compromised by the music or sound effects. The remaining five films in the set have 2.0 stereo tracks, and the music gets a wonderful spread through the soundstage while again never overpowering the all-important dialogue with the films. There are some interesting ambient sounds woven into the surrounds, too, like chatter in a restaurant or hubbub in the courtroom which sometimes give these TV-movies a theatrical feel.
Special Features: 0/5There are no bonus features at all with this release.
A note on packaging: two films are each assigned one DVD, but each double feature disc is contained in its own Amray case taking up much more room than if the set had been done in a single case with leaves or in three slimline cases. Buyers of future releases might be better served with more space-saving ideas when packaging these movies for the consumer.

I'll have to double check my Beta Hi-Fi original air date taping of Perry Mason Returns, but I thought that they were all in stereo from the beginning.
Thanks for the review. I pre-ordered my copy from Amazon and look forward to seeing these six fllms.
Thanks, Matt! Appreciate the review. Bummer on the packaging - that makes no sense to me.
Incidentally, Richard Anderson's appearance in the opening movie is something of an inconsistency since he was a regular during the last season of the original series and now he's playing a completely different part. It does however make him the only person to my knowledge to have appeared in the original series, the Markham reboot and the later MOW series.
thanks for this

Researchers agree the social giant is beating Google for display market share.
With Facebook poised to expand its advertising initiatives in 2012, a prediction from Enders Analysis that the digital giant will reach $5.3 billion in display advertising next year seems about right. According to eMarketer, Facebook's display ad revenue will total $3.8 billion at this year's end, representing a 104 percent growth compared to 2010.
Utilizing both researchers' numbers suggests Facebook ad sales will jump 39 percent year over year by the end of 2012. Enders and eMarketer give Facebook the title of No. 1 display advertising seller over Google.
London-based Enders prognosticates Google will pull in $2.5 billion in display ads during 2012, not including search dollars. With search in the mix, Enders says the Mountain View, CA-based online giant has been selling more advertising than any other player and will continue to do so next year.
But not without Facebook continuing to up its advertising game. During 2012, the Palo Alto, CA-based company plans to increase the reach of its Sponsored Stories ad units while reportedly also entering the mobile advertising fray.

Another poll, already? March 28, 2015Posted by WorldbyStorm in Irish Politics.
14 comments
FG 27% +3%, LP 10% +3%, FF 18% NC, SF 17% -4%, IND/OTHER 28% [includes RENUA 2%, GP 2%].
All very interesting, hard to know what to make of it given the IT poll this week too which offered a different picture again.
Meanwhile, what of this?
Despite the rise in support for the coalition parties two thirds of voters said they had not felt the benefit of any economic recovery.
Of those surveyed 62% believe the country is out of recession but said a change of Government is needed to deliver a fairer society.

Looking at the visible planets through binoculars this last week – and it amazes me how much can be seen in the Dublin city skies at night, the thought struck me it would be handy to know the overall location in plan form of the planets in relation to the sun at any given time.
It takes a little digging and it's curious that there aren't better graphics, at least on the online sources.
This here is good, albeit not to scale.
And this is more rudimentary, though perhaps more accurate – sadly though, it's three months out of date!
This is good but appears to be astrologically oriented unfortunately. It's amazing how many sites there are that cater for those interested in astrology. Kind of depressing in its own way.
Not quite the same, but this is quite good, giving an overview of the planets visible to the naked eye and those visible using binoculars or telescopes. Usefully it also gives a chart of the night sky and where the planets are located each night.
It's still amazing, for me, to be able to see Jupiter and three or four of its moons in the sky through an ordinary set of binoculars. It never gets old. I'm away in Donegal over Easter and with good weather the night sky there is stunning, though the best I've seen in Ireland is, oddly enough, in a valley close to Kilkenny city which was sufficiently far enough away to shut off light pollution.
"Kathleen Lynn, a Truly Radical Woman" : Summer School – July 18th 2015 March 28, 2015Posted by WorldbyStorm in Uncategorized.
add a comment
"Kathleen Lynn, a Truly Radical Woman"
Saturday July 18th – The 1st Sarah Lundberg Summer School,
The Sean O'Casey Theatre, East Wall 10am to 4pm.
Last year the East Wall History Group was shocked by the untimely passing of our friend and colleague Sarah Lundberg. We have decided to honour her memory by holding an annual summer school – a full day devoted to topics that would be significant to Sarah.
The inaugural event will focus on the life and legacy of Kathleen Lynn, a truly radical and important woman in Irish history. At the time of her death, Sarah had many projects planned or in progress. This included a proposal for a series of publications relating to Kathleen Lynn, to be released between 2016 and 2019. Sarah recognised the importance of Kathleen Lynn, and the proposal was to focus on the many aspects of her life and works – from Liberty Hall to the Dail , under fire and jailed in 1916 to founding a children's hospital in 1919 , and through her years of political and social campaigning – a true revolutionary and a medical innovator.
The focus on Kathleen Lynn is also significant as this year marks the 60th anniversary of her death in 1965.
Plans for the event are at an early stage and the exact format has not been finalised- we are extending an invitation to anyone with an interest or knowledge on the topic who would like to participate to get in touch as soon as possible. An essay and project competition aimed at involving younger people will be included in the programme.
Contact us at: firstname.lastname@example.com
For those not familiar with Kathleen Lynn this is a great introduction:
The Church and The Smiths March 28, 2015Posted by WorldbyStorm in Culture.
2 comments
Reading this on the Church website announcing a European tour on foot of their latest album (good, not great) – one which doesn't take in Dublin, for shame, I was intrigued by the following:
On the subject of creation let's not forget that Mike Joyce, Andy Rourke and Johnny Marr were inspired to form The Smiths after seeing The Church play at Leadmill Sheffield in 1982!
Really? I'm not a huge Smiths fan, always liked some of the songs, particularly the singles, a lot, but never warmed to them as much as with other groups (that said I've always really liked Marr's solo/collaborative stuff, particularly Electronic with Bernard Sumner from New Order). But that didn't sound entirely right.
Anyhow, this Smiths oriented website doesn't mention a Church connection.
However, a bit of digging reveals this.

E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com! I was just wondering if you are/ever were a fan of The Church, Johnny, and if you're up on any of their recent releases. Early Church is very similar in sound to The Smiths, and I was wondering if they influenced you at all, or is it simply the Rickenbacker sound that you had in common with them? Thanks, Tara
I went to see them in a really small room when we were just starting out.They were really good.I haven't really kept up with them.
Not quite 'inspired to form' the Smiths but I guess a vague link of sorts.
Anyhow, here from the Church, their superb Unguarded Moment from the early 1980s…
And a Smiths track I'm partial to…
A different future… more Soviet Space Art… March 28, 2015Posted by WorldbyStorm in Culture, The Left.

Mentioned this here a while ago…
But there's more… a multitude of sites online that have images drawn from the 50s, 60s and 70s by Soviet space art painters. Here's the reliable io9 on this topic. I'm particularly fond of Andrei Sokolov's work (scroll down) which I've mentioned before. More here (again, scroll down).
I love this imagery because there's a difference in style to that of Western space art of the same period – albeit some of the spacecraft look deeply indebted to Chesley Bonestalls work. There's something more painterly about these images, and a sense that they are different in intent and approach. It's something in the sheer alieness of the depictions, of the craft. The eye wanders across fields of metallic objects and it's difficult to tell are these human produced or alien artefacts.
It's as if this is a view into an alternate history where the red star went even further than it did – and truth is the Soviet space programme was a very real achievement for humanity, and a remarkable one given the constraints on that society.
This Weekend I'll Mostly be Listening to… The Units March 28, 2015Posted by WorldbyStorm in This Weekend I'll Mostly Be Listening to....

Until recently I'd never consciously heard of this crowd, a US based – also involved in performance art – early electronic/new wave group who were extant from the late 1970s until 1983. It was only reading this piece here from a 1980s magazine – on a pointless quest to find out how Japan got that sequenced synth bass sound on Quiet Life, and if anyone has any idea how it is done I'd appreciate it – that I read of them.
Wiki, as can be seen above, has some information on them and there's bits and pieces of their output on the web. YouTube has a good selection of their songs.
First up a caveat or two. The music is often clunky as if they're not quite sure whether to go new wave or electronic/synth pop, and the production is – at times – different. But that aside there's some interesting sounds here, with songs that – well, mix electronic/synth pop and new wave.
What's interesting is that it takes a different route entirely from, say, John Foxx or Gary Numan, though there is more than a hint of Ultravox. In part it is because it is more abrasive. This isn't the steely and somewhat detached alienation JG Ballard, this is a different sort of alienation entirely, fuelled as much by punk as by 1970s electronic experimentation.
Now some of this is more than a little bit like Talking Heads – which is not necessarily a good thing in my book. But then again it's early Talking Heads, and that's a bit better in my book. Go has a cracking synth line. Digital Stimulation is pretty good in an early 1980s style. And then Cowboy sounds weirdly like a demo track from Boards of Canada. And that points up something very curious about the group, there's plenty of electronic sounds here that sound, for all the dodgy production, remarkably more modern than the release date would suggest. It's not difficult to see these reworked completely into instrumentals, or near instrumentals – and lo, well read below.
Perhaps not entirely surprisingly they broke up after a horribly misconceived foray into commercial synth pop. But there have been some interesting remixes of their material in subsequent years…
Anyone reading here who remembers them from back in the day?

Paying the price for centuries of contempt March 27, 2015Posted by WorldbyStorm in British Politics, European Politics, Irish Politics, Northern Ireland, Scottish Politics, The Left, Wales.

It's not necessarily coming, as they say, from a place of love. More like a place of snark, but this is a great line from Simon Jenkins in the Guardian when discussing the shape of the next British Parliament.
British politics is paying the price for centuries of English contempt for the political aspirations of the Irish, Scots and Welsh.
Ain't that the truth.
Throughout the 19th century Tory (and some Liberal) opposition to even moderate home rule for the "other British empire" ensured a more drastic separatism would eventually triumph.
Actually his line is intriguing because he argues that with SNP support a Labour government is more or less inevitable. Well, we'll see.
He makes another point, one which given the way in which unionism looms large in the political consciousness is perhaps sometimes forgotten on this part of the island
The lesson of separatism across Europe is the same. For restless Ukrainians, Slovenians, Kosovans, Slovakians, Basques and Catalans, regional autonomy is not a passing fad, to be bought off with a few powers and subsidies. It is a visceral response to the arrogance of centralised power. It is the response that many Britons profess towards the overbearing power of Brussels; yet few in Westminster see themselves as the EU of Great Britain.

First off a request I got in yesterday from a Student doing a thesis on Michael O'Riordan. Would anyone have any election material from Michael O'Riordan , especially his election campaigns of 1946, 1951, 1955 and 1961. Or indeed be able to point me in any direction where they or any other material from him might be found…… (I've already sent him the CLR Archive Link for O'Riordan)
From The April 1936 edition of "The Labour Monthly" (a magazine associated with The Communist Party of Great Britain) an article reflecting on the 20th Anniversary of the Easter Rising written by Pat Devine.
From the 1969 General Election a leaflet from Labour Party Dublin County South Candidates Sean Fitzpatrick, Tom O'Brien and Donal O'Sullivan.
and finally "Marriage Is Important – Reflect Before You Change It" Leaflet From The Archdiocese Of Dublin

Don't want to goof it up!
My one and only orchid is a rehab assignment Phal. I just noticed the emergence of a flower spike. Unfortunately, the spike appeared just when I was making plans to repot. The spike is probably 1" long and the plant looks otherwise healthy. Except that its been in the same pot for probably like two years and some of the visable roots (in a clear plastic pot inside terracotta pot) are kinda brown. Was thinking a root pruning and repot would be a good idea. If I root prune gently and cleanly then repot, will the plant abort the blooming effort? If it does bloom for several months (fingers crossed), I won't be able to repot for a while. Don't want to goof this up.... any suggestions would be much appreciated....
go ahead and repot it now. decide how many roots are still good after you trim off dead. if there's still several good roots, then just leave the spike. if there's very few left the cut the spike off and let the energy go into making new roots.
Looks like I got a pretty good bunch of roots to work with, so I'll go ahead with the repot. From what I've been reading, phals are pretty easy to care for, so I would assume that would include being forgiving to the care of an amateur. Like I said, my first orchid, so thanks much for the advise.
Once a Phal makes a spike it usually fights to the bitter death to keep it. I have one flowering right now which has completely dropped all its leaves. They are not meant to be deciduous. Do what the hell you like to it, you will not prevent it flowering. The big challenge is get the b*****s to go into spike in the first place! - Ian.

Allium flower bulb questions
I've never planted bulbs before (newbie!) and had some questions about when to plant. From what I understand some bulbs need to overwinter, and some do not?
Can I plant allium flower bulbs in the spring for summer flowers? What about garlic cloves?
I think in most regions it is optimal to plant in fall for both ornamental allium and garlic. As with most things there is no black and white, clear cut answer. If you put them in the ground now I have a feeling the garlic would root and grow some garlic but not its full potential(fewer and smaller cloves than could of had if planted in fall). Allium are supposed to bloom much earlier than garlic are supposed to finish so I don't believe the allium will have enough time to properly root and get well-established before they are supposed to bloom in late spring/early summer this year. A potential pitfall for both is that they rot in the ground before rooting. This depends greatly on the weather conditions this spring. Viva El Nino!
