I recently visited here and am delighted with the service. As a westerner with blonde hair I found it very difficult to find a hairdresser who knew what they were doing. Here I felt comfort knowing I was in safe hands with professionals. Iv had my hair butchered and turned orange by local hairdressers. Here the staff are British and offer great value for money. I would recommend Helen for those with blond hair and excellent value for money ;-)

After years of growing out my hair from a highlighting disaster in the UK, I finally plucked up the courage to have it highlighted again. Rachael had been recommended to me by all my work colleagues and they weren't wrong. She did a fabulous job and recommended some great stuff for me to keep it in good condition. It's green and comes in a tub and that's all I know! Love it!

This hairdresser is not to be missed out upon, truly a treasure among the rest. Luke was not only was friendly and polite but was also well experienced, accurate and professional in all degrees. I will definitely be a regular from this day forward.

After 5 1/2 years of living in Dubai, I am so happy to have finally found a hairdresser I can trust!!! I had a disastrous haircut 2 weeks ago, then I went to another salon to have it fixed, but I still wasn't happy. So finally, I did some research in Time Out and saw old comments on a 2009 article about the best salons here. Most of them were raving about Rami of the Chill Salon. I decided to give it a go, since by then, I had nothing to lose. I'm so glad I did!! Not only did Rami fix my haircut, but he also gave me a great color!! I love my new look, and so does my husband!

It's been the third time I visited Chill Salon and I am very pleased with the haircut I received at the hands of Rami. What I love about it is the precision of the cut. I know I will be able to manage my hair with little effort until my next appointment.

I have seen this sentiment a lot in the abortion posts here.
It leads me to wonder, if you've had an abortion and you know a friend thinks this way, would you disclose this info to her?
If you are a person that does feel this way, would you expect your friends to disclose this info to you before they watch your kids? What if they've been your friend for years, and have watched your kids for years? Would finding out change things?
Like I said, I've noticed this statement quite a bit here, and I have to wonder... how the heck would you know about the abortion?
I would never let a woman that's had an abortion watch my kids.
I have seen this sentiment a lot in the abortion posts here.
That's horrible :(
If I were any more open minded my brain would fall out.
"Do not mess in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup."
Seeing as how 1 in 4 women have had abortions, I'm guessing most people don't know. Are people who've had abortions not fit to take care of their own kids. I see no correlation between the 2. How weird.

Good grief! How would you (general you) even know? I wonder if somebody with that mentally would give a "pass" to somebody who had one out of, say, medical necessity.
Actually, I don't wonder. I don't care. How gross.
I've never heard this and I've been on a lot of abortion debates, either way its awful.....I can think of one pro-lifer here I would never leave alone with my children.

I've read a lot of abortion debates and I've never seen this. When I had a pregnancy counter one poster said she felt sorry for me because I was pro-choice. It made no sense.
I've done peyote. Vomiting, sure, on people? Wrong. Pissing everywhere has no excuse unless a mom on a trampoline.
I've never heard that on this board, and it's a dumb ass statement, seriously.

This is silly. You can't tell by looking at a woman if they have had an abortion or not. So your loving, trusted best babysitter in the whole world may have had an abortion but just chooses not to disccuss it.

I know I'm not the only one that's seen this!
It exists, and as someone that's had an abortion, it kind of made me feel like shit. I'm a good person and a good mom, dammit.
Personally speaking, I don't tend to share much about my private life with anybody, so if I had one it's doubtful many people would know.

Reviews of Serena Inn
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Good place to stay when in Stone Town
A good place to stay for a day or two whilst visiting Stone Town. Whilst the hotel is clean, modern and of a relatively high standard, its location is what makes it standout. This, and the pool, is excellent.
There are some very good restaurants near by, serving real culinary delights, in particular the at Beyt al Chai (opposite) and the Silk Route (near the fort).
A disappointing stay at the Serena
The Serena Inn is very, very nice to look at and the staff were very nice, especially the reception staff. The restaurant was very weak. The bar service was slow and haphazard in the afternoon but in the restaurant in the evening, we kept getting asked if everything was okay by lots of managers, but when we did make a comment (see below) it was dismissed.
The restaurant food was disappointing and rather ordinary for the price. We ordered prawns for the starter and there were only 2 prawns on the plate costing about $7. When we commented on this, we were told it was only an appetizer. Other appetizers were larger. The restaurant was overlooking the beach with open windows, and it gradually dawned on us that the trickle of water down the beach was from a toilet and explained the smell!
We had a very early start, hence the stay at Serena, but the water went off in the night. We had to ring to find out what was happening and the staff said it was fixed, but it wan't so we had to ring again. Then it was fixed but only just in time (with cold water only) for us to get out for our flight. They did serve a decent breakfast at 5.30 which was much appreciated. The pool closed at 6pm! Far too early.
Beautiful setting and furnishings but we felt the restaurant and water let it down. In our view it was not that high a standard for its cost.
If you want to go shopping, do be aware that they basically close down at prayer time and in the evening. The shops were expensive. It was even worse as it was during Ramadam. If you want to go shopping, go in the morning between 10 and 12.
Serena Inn review
Wonderful location, loved zanzibar , and sitting by the pool watching the Dhows go by. Food and service in the main Restaurant a bit chaotic at times. Overall though a good experience.Read more about the whole trip
Best Hotel in Stonestown
Really nice hotel; lovely room with big balcony and hammock. Good air-conditioning and nice roof-top restauant.
Stonestown wasn't a great place though.
Fantastic stay in Stone Town at Serena Inn
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 nights stay here. We finally had air-con and so slept really well!!! (We found the humidity quite hard work!) Great staff, wonderful and varied food and brilliant facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed the large cool pool. What a great way to finish up our holiday!!Read more about the whole trip
Serena Inn review
We can see why this hotel is rated as one of the best in Zanzibar, we loved it and would like to have stayed longer than 2 nights. First impressions are really important and they made us feel really welcome when we arrived. The high level of service and attention to detail continued for the rest of our short stay. We loved the buzz of Stone Town and were surprised that we were not hassled by the shop keepers as much as we expected.
We had a good room with a view of the sea and pool plus a small balcony. Although not the size of accommodation that we had seen on the rest of our holiday it was perfectly okay for the amount of time we used it.
It was great to be able to combine the noise and bustle of Stone Town with the tranquility of the Serena Inn. The best of both worlds. The pool and pool area was great and the staff were very attentive. It was lovely to hear live music in the early evening. A great way to enjoy sundowners.
We made one mistake and that was eating at Africa House Hotel for one evening, just not in the same league as the Serena Inn and more expensive although the bar area was good.
We arranged for a dhow sunset sailing trip for our last evening followed by dinner in the seafood restaurant on the roof terrace of the Serena Inn. The Dhow cruise was amazing. We had a crew of 7 and just the two of us as guests. They served fresh canapés and drinks provided by the hotel whilst sailing down the coast and back for over 2 ½ hours. We booked this through the hotel and not Fisherman Tours as they advised us to use another organization which didn't sound as good.
In summary an fantastic ending to a great holiday in two exceptional countries.
Serena Inn review
Beautiful room. Loved the hammock on the verandah.
For Mark it was the airconditioning that brought a smile to his face!!
Thought the restaurant menu abit boring especially as the other restaurant was seafood only. Cafe menu excellent and so was room service.
Lovely shop.
Excellent tour of the city.
Would liked to have stayed longer (2 nights only).
Hotel building and gardens, the best of british colonialism.
Serene Serena
A lovely corner room but as it was on the ground floor the foliage obscured the sea view!
The hotel informed us that the pool would be closed for a private function from 3pm on the only full day we were there! After complaining they allowed us to use the pool until sundown.
Serena Inn, Stone Town
Probably the best hotel in Stone Town, and well situated, but naturally it lacked the individuality of the other placed visited during the trip.
The Roof Top Dinner was a beautiful setting, as were the terrace bars and pool area.
Top hotel so had to be good and in the humidity of Zanzibar the air conditioning had to run well. (both were)
Views from the balcony were excellent, but were were in what they said was the best aspected room, which I would agree with.
High quality catering, as would be expected from the hotel group

Guest blog by ASPCA Volunteer Manager, Julie Sonenberg, a mom of one daughter and (now) one dog in New York City.
When our 14-year-old dog, Dexter, became ill a few weeks ago, we started researching how to talk to a toddler about a dog's death. We learned that it's important to be clear, honest and simple. We read that it's best not to talk about it like "going to sleep and not waking up" because that may make your child fearful of sleeping.
So when he died and our daughter asked, "Where's Dexter?" we responded with something like, "Today Mommy and Daddy are feeling very sad because last night Dexter died. He was very old and he was sick and his body couldn't support him anymore. So he died. And that means he's not coming back and we're not going to see him anymore which makes us very sad. You may see Mommy and Daddy crying because we're sad that Dexter's not here anymore. But we can think and talk about Dexter, look at his pictures and remember him. And that will make us feel better."
She didn't have too much of a response to that but then later asked "Where's Dexter?" and we repeated some of what we had told her earlier. Then later she would ask "Dexter's on a walk?" or "Dexter's at Gaga and Papa's house?" And each time we told her again. Two weeks later she still says she wants to give Dexter a hug before bed. Death is a difficult concept for all of us and in many ways I'm sure it's easier that she doesn't understand and isn't grieving Dexter's loss along with us. But it's hard that she keeps asking. It's like picking a scab. But it's still so fresh for me that thinking about it and crying about it still feels good and therapeutic.
We made a video slideshow of our memories with Dexter that we watch with our daughter to help her remember him. And we talk about how soft he was, how she loved to hug him, how he loved to lick her, and how gentle he was. It hurts to talk about him in past tense, but at least we get to talk about him. I think the real pain for me will be when she stops asking about him. So, we'll just have to keep reminding our daughter what a great furry brother Dexter was to her.

Pets that have never been around children have good reason to be wary. Kids can be loud, unpredictable and grabby. So, I was little apprehensive when we decided to add human children to our family. How would my two cats react?
After some research and a bit of instinct, we used a few simple methods to create good kid-cat relations:
Give Your Cats Plenty of Love. Pets may receive less attention when a new baby arrives on the scene. Making an effort to spend time with the cats, petting and playing with them, seemed to go a long way in keeping the cats happy. Treats didn't hurt, either!
Also, consistently adoring your cats around your children is a great way to model how cats are beloved members of the family and treated with respect.
Teach "Gentle" at an Early Age. You can never start too early to teach your child what a "gentle" touch is and where they can and cannot touch your pets. Even when our girls were babies, we'd hold their hands and stroke the cats where they most liked it. As they grew, the girls learned how to touch the cats and the cats learned these little human creatures seemed to be okay.
Encourage Age-Appropriate Play Time. Once my daughters learned how to properly play with the cats, their relationship blossomed. When she was three, I gave my oldest daughter the cats' favorite wand toy and showed her how to wiggle it through the house. The cats loved it! Of course, I supervised this activity. But I noticed after introducing fun to the mix, the cats sought out my daughters more.
Not long after they started playing together, the cats began sleeping in my older daughter's room. Now, they cuddle close to both of my daughters on the couch and don't seem too concerned when they're in the middle of kid-led chaos.
Supervise! I still carefully watch what's going on. Kids may not always recognize situations that cats might not like. While the cat may not be in danger per se, he may be in a situation that could create fear.
For example, my girls like to create "forts" out of boxes and blankets, and want to bring the cats in with them. I remind the girls that cats need to be able to leave the game when they want to. Sometimes when I've intervened on their behalf, the cats have gratefully scurried away, but more often they stay put, content to be where the action is.
Every cat and household dynamic is different, of course. But from my experience, the above tactics worked extremely well in creating a household of kid-cat harmony. What are your strategies? Please share in the comments.
Guest blog by ASPCA Volunteer Manager Julie Sonenberg, a mom of one daughter and two dogs in New York City.
Before I was a parent (of a human), I remember nodding in agreement when parents told stories about their children, saying, "Oh, totally, my dog does that too!" And after seeing the expressions on their faces, I'd qualify, "I know that having a child is different than having a dog. But, still, I get it." But I see now that I didn't exactly get it. Having a dog is a lot of work: Three walks a day, no matter the weather. They might wake you up early on the weekends to go to the park. You have to take them to the vet, and in some cases, the groomer. You need to feed them and be responsible for their general well-being. Training them is of paramount importance, in order to have a dog who doesn't eat your furniture, pee on your floor and who generally fits into society.
I went to dog training school about ten years ago and worked as a private dog training instructor. Most of my job was training people to train their dogs (people are much harder to train than dogs). I used positive reinforcement methods whereby you reward behaviors that you want to see again. At the time, I thought that having these training skills would mean that, later in life, when I became a parent of a human child, I would already have all the necessary skills. How different could it be, training a person and training a dog? After all, I want my child to fit into society and refrain from eating my furniture or peeing on my floor.
Raising a human child, like training a dog, does require patience, love and consistency. And some form of positive reinforcement. But the main difference is that you have to explain more and teach them about feelings. I now find myself giving the dogs more explanation than they need. I'm glad I have the opportunity to be the mom of furry children, and of a bi-ped, too. They get to be "siblings" to each other, which helps my daughter build character and empathy. And I like to think that my practice as a dog trainer was a good foundation for parenting.

It's amazing the things that once seemed strange but became normal over the course of my years living with kids and pets. Here are 11 things that may seem perfectly normal to a parent like me:
- You've told your sick child that you'll "call the vet" to see if they can get her in.
- You yell, "Get that leash off your little sister, NOW!" and it doesn't even phase you— it's just a typical day in your household.
- You've asked your kids if they want dry food or wet food for dinner.
- After using the bathroom, you've reminded your kids to "scoop."
- You call your kids by your pets' names and vice versa. Every time. Sometimes they answer.
- There's always someone or something sitting in your favorite chair.
- Easy-to-clean furniture and flooring. Enough said.
- You know that "puppy dog eyes" are a tactic used by every species. You also know they're effective.
- Someone's always hungry. Even if they just ate.
- No matter what you're wearing, you'll end up with fur, drool or chocolate on it within minutes.
- Privacy does not exist.
I have found that the key to handling all of these things is to adopt a more relaxed attitude, which is probably good for us anyway, don't you think?

So Kerplunk, you've read parts of it, its not that long why not the entire thing, couldn't stomach it? Did you read it in the context of the time period it was written? Did you read it in the context of history up until that point?
If you were a feudal lord in the 10th century what would you have thought of capitalism or small middle-class business owners? probably the same thing capitalists thought/think of communists now.
The idea that communism, an extreme form of socialism, something that many western countries are slowly tending towards is so despicable and opposed to everything all of us have ever been taught is to me quite funny.
Anyway, the economic principles at the time were very open for debate and obviously held some merit. In theory of course, in practice they are practically impossible because of human nature.
Anyway, if anyone wants to keep talking about it maybe we should take this to PM's to let this thread get back on topic...or just die out.

First impressions of Japan
... children are well-behaved! And although it seems pretty technologically advanced here (especially the toilet seats!), they have a cash-based society. I'm not used to dealing in cash. I was also struck by the number of homeless people and smokers I encountered this morning...the homeless people near where I'm staying in Ueno sleep head to feet by the roadside, or in the park if they get a good spot, and they get up in the morning and stack their worldly possessions ...
Getting to know you
... it. It's basically a foodie and shopper's paradise, but with trains. I think one could spend several days here wandering the various levels of eateries and shops and never uncover all its treasures. We saw other things too of course, but Shinjuku Station will be one of my most vivid memories of our trip. Anyway, enjoy the photos/captions.
Day 303/307 - Arigato Gozaimaaaassss!
... Homework never ends!
I can't believe that, until a month ago, we were not planning to visit Japan. Although everybody wanted to come, we were afraid of the contamination due to the nuclear power plant issues after the tsunami. We are all so glad that we finally decided to come!
After the ceremony, we went to a Yakitori with Yukari and she helped us ...
In Search of Goths, and the Top-End
... but found the street more akin to Collins Street or Rodeo Drive. After another let-down, we decided to split up, with the girls heading towards Fabric Town again, and me in search of Japanese display food. We have mastered the trains now so getting to the other side of Tokyo is easy.
Had a wonderful time wandering around what could only be called "kitchen town". Everything you ever wanted for ...
四つ日: Fourth day: Tokyo Finish
... end up: In the middle of the wooden stairs there is a big hole where people come crawling out of. Brilliant. So, going up. On this floor there was a gallery about the newest Ghibli film. Which is Kaze Tashinu (The Wind Rises) and it looked great. Turning a corner and we enter: Mama Aiuto, the museum store. Very busy but filled with some lovely stuff. From here on in it is just heading for the exit basically and heading back. Using the other route.
This path ...

Disruption guru: Why Apple, Tesla, VCs, academia may die
- Cromwell Schubarth, Silicon Valley Business Journal
Harvard business professor Clayton Christensen literally wrote the book on technology disruption, and he thinks Apple, Tesla Motors, venture capitalists and most of the nation's colleges and universities should be afraid.
The author of "The Innovator's Dilemma" said Wednesday that all of them could be killed by less advanced competitors in the same way that many once dominant technology companies have been in the past.
Christensen shared his theories about how innovative giants are felled and replaced by relatively less sophisticated rivals, speaking to an attentive crowd of young entrepreneurs and funders at the Startup Grind conference in Mountain View, Calif., on Wednesday.
Basically, his theory of disruption centers around how dominant industry leaders will react to a newcomer: "It allows you to predict whether you will kill the incumbents or whether the incumbents will kill you."
If a newcomer thinks it can win by competing at the high end, "the incumbents will always kill you."
If they come in at the bottom of the market and offer something that at first is not as good, the legacy companies won't feel threatened until too late, after the newcomers have gained a foothold in the market.
He offered as an example the introduction of cheap transistor radios. High fidelity, vacuum-tube powered incumbents felt no threat from the poor quality audio the transistors produced and missed the technological shift that eventually killed many of them.
Here is what Christensen said threatens Apple, Tesla, VCs and academia.
Apple too good for its own good?
Apple could be on path for a classic disruption in Christensen's view. Successful innovative products like the iPhone are usually based on proprietary technology because that is how the dominant business carves out, protects and builds its top market position.

Templar knights, in their distinctive white mantles with a red cross, were among the most skilled fighting units of the Crusades. The Templars' existence was tied closely to the Crusades; when the Holy Land was lost,...

The top-models are not scrawny schoolgirl sorts that most teenie internet sites seem to feature presently days but real young femmes that enjoy showing their bodies. You will find blonde chicks, dark-haired chicks and redheads doing everything from just posing to fondling.

Towards UVM Register Package Interoperability
23rd Synopsys EDA Interoperability Forum Features a Verification Session with focus on the UVM Register Package
As readers of the Verification Horizons BLOG know from recent posts, progress towards a register & memory facility in UVM 1.0 is well underway. While the Accellera VIP-TSC is making good progress, limited information is available to non-participants. This limited knowledge is true for both eventual users of the standard as well as for many EDA, IP and VIP companies that don't participate directly in the development activities but whom could benefit from planning for tool and IP interoperability. As the standard nears completion, it is important for other EDA and IP companies to know how they might collaborate with others in support of the pending standard.
The 23rd Synopsys EDA Interoperability Forum offers EDA and IP companies and others who will integrate the use of tools and Verification IP from several vendors a first look at the new UVM 1.0 Register Package. The Forum's 3:15 p.m. – 4:15 p.m. session will focus on Verification and UVM Register Package interoperability.
Mark Glasser, Methodology Architect at Mentor Graphics, will share the presentation time with a couple other presenters. His presentation is "Building Register Verification Environment in UVM." We encourage those who can make it to the event and have the time on October 21st to attend to do so. Mark and other experts will be able to share their UVM development experiences and offer key insight into the newer UVM 1.0 Register Package features.
The event is free of charge, but registration is required to attend this session and any others at the Forum. Forum details are:
Date: 21 October 2010
Time: 9:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.

What You Can Expect
Your tour begins with a short walk along the streets of the former Jewish district of Kazimierz. Next, Wawel Hill, crowned by Wawel Castle and Wawel Cathedral and the seat of royal power up until the 17th century. The Castle was home to many Polish kings and queens and the royal crypts in the Cathedral their final resting place, along with several other Polish heroes.
A walk up Grodzka street leads you to the heart of Krakow, the Rynek Glowny, or Main Market Square. There the large Gothic Cloth Hall is the perfect place to shop for local souvenirs.
The last sightseeing stop is the twin-spired St Mary's Church with its famous medieval altar by Wit Stwosz and where, every hour the brave trumpeter of Krakow still calls out his warning.

September 2014
This is an absolute must as a first day tour. The tour guide was charming and provided a wealth of information. All three tours were always on time and very efficiently run without feeling you were being rushed. The tour guides were always asking for feedback as to what else each of the tour members needs were
September 2014
Tour guide was excellent. Day was well organised and I would recommend.

Quiz: Remember the definition of mal de mer?
any substance that gives a visible sign, usually by a colour change, of the presence or absence of a threshold concentration of a chemical species, such as an acid or an alkali in a solution. An example is the substance called methyl yellow, which imparts a yellow colour to an alkaline solution. If acid is slowly added, the solution remains yellow until all the alkali has been neutralized, whereupon the colour suddenly changes to red

I just got new irons with project x 6.0 stiff shafts. Still new to me had them for about a month. Love them but have lost some distance with them. I hit my old tms further than my new Ap2s. Any tips?
Thanks for your post scott s. Also, thanks for telling us about your former job, and giving us the facts about the other company's clubs. That tells me that you know what your talking about. Sounds like very good advise you gave Alex, and I agree with you. Hope your able to hook up with Titleist.

They're a great company, and they are really devoted to helping their customers play better, and giving us the best products on the market.

Which roses can take full unrelenting sun?
I am trying to plan my yard and there is a lot of it that has 6+ hours of afternoon sun that fades or crisps most roses once the temps start climbing. Keeping my roses only in the morning sun severely limits my available space for them. So far, Iceberg, St. Patrick, Ruby Meidiland are holding up ok, although RB has minuscule blooms, so maybe that is due to stress. The next best ones are Queen Elizabeth (doesn't wilt but color fades), Angel Face (same as QE), and Cinco de Mayo (same story). Sexy Rexy keeps her color but turns crispy. All the rest just look sad and will have to go in the morning sun area.
So what do I do with all that afternoon sun area? I just can't give up trying to fill it with roses! Should I plant more St. Patricks or is there an even better hot weather rose you know about? Can any Austins hold up to heat? Thank you.
I used to have a Crimson Bouquet (gorgeous red) that seemed to love the sun, and the popular Double Delight seems to do well in full sun. I also planted a Cherry Parfait (floribunda--blooms look a bit like Double Delight) because I was told it liked the sun, but I haven't had it long enough to verify that from my own personal experience.
I do have some newer roses in a place that gets only the hot afternoon sun: Elina and Peter Mayle (both hybrid teas) and Mrs. John Laing (hybrid perpetual). They have big fat blooms and great fragrance also. However, the final verdict isn't in on them yet, but they made it through last summer with no serious signs of burning. Of course, I tend to water them a bit more than some of my other roses.
I don't remember any fading on any of the above roses.
I just planted a Chrysler Imperial. I seem to remember that posters claimed it likes the sun and doesn't fade. At least, given where I planted it, it better withstand the sun, cuz it is going to get a lot--which is why I think it was recommended to me.
Hope that gets you started.
You are sure it is not a cultural problem? In other words, I am wondering: how old are the roses? Young recently planted roses toast pretty quickly, while established ones hold up better. Is the soil well mulched to hold in moisture and keep the roots cooler? Are you far inland where it gets very hot?
Most of mine are in sun from sunrise to sunset without crisping, but I'm not that far inland. Much farther inland than Jeri with her cool coastal conditions, though. Tucson Rose Society, tucsonrose.org, had a good list of suggestion for hot areas, as I remember. Can't get much hotter and sunnier than Tucson.
I second what Hoovb says about paying attention to cultural practices. But certainly, some roses won't like too much heat.
In addition to the ones you mentioned are handling it ok, I'd add hybrid teas Marilyn Monroe (apricot), Dame de Coeur (rich red), Tiffany (pink blend), Louise Estes (pink blend), and like Kate suggested--Chrysler Imperial (Red)does very well for me. I also want to plug the largish mini Linville (white with pink blush). It seems to hold up well to our July and August heat. Some, especially delicate white and pastels, seem to crisp easily for me in that heat. But like was already said, mature plants with established root systems will tolerate the heat better than young ones.
I'm between Fresno & Bakersfield and my best performers once it hits the 100's are floribundas, minis and mini floras. Heat doesn't bother them like it does the HT's, they just keep blooming. One lavender browns on the edges at that hot but the rest keep blooming pretty nicely. I'm looking to see how well the newest grandiflora will do, but it's also a light lavender. Almost everything I have is out in full sun, a few roses on the edges near fences get some relief in late afternoon, but most don't.
I'm not sure what varieties of roses or what colors you are prefering but here's what does well for my southern exposure planted roses:
Caldwell Pink (lavendery found rose)
Mrs. B.R. Cant (rosey tea)
Carefree Beauty (bright pink shrub rose)
Martha Gonzales (red china)
Red Cascade (weeping miniature or climber)
Hansa (purple rugosa)
These have been growing in total full sun, cooking in the heat and humidity here, for several years and doing well. They are also the roses that I don't have to spray!
All roses look like crappola in our brand of hot, unrelenting sunlight but some will tolerate it better than others. Your local public rose gardens are a great place to get an idea of which roses tolerate sunny conditions in your area... and I'm not being tongue-in-cheek about what constitutes 'hot', either. There are hot-dry, hot-damp, hot-day/cool-night, hot-burn,hot-occasionally, hot-windy and hot-for months on end types of heat. Phoenix will see 100+ days of 100+ temps.
A lot of Austin roses seem to do well in our heat, maybe because they have a lot of petals to begin with or maybe because we aren't expecting hybrid-tea type blooms from them. Prospero, Molineaux and Golden Celebration do very well. Tamora goes dormant and the jury is still out on Christopher Marlowe and some others that are still youngsters.
Mauves and dark pinks don't seem to do well in heat unless you like the color of dark purple crispy critters.
Veterans Honor bush does well but the flowers turn pink. Ingrid Bergman does much better, as does Black Magic, for red HT's.
One thing you might remember is that a rose receiving morning-into-afternoon sun seems to fare better than one that doesn't receive sun until mid-to-late morning.
Many low desert rosarians erect some type of shade structure to protect afternoon exposure only roses. We also mulch heavy and water in the evenings to cool down the temperature. Biggest thing is to adjust your perception. Roses, people and food never look great after sitting in 100F temps for a few hours...
Yep I agree with moroeaz, it is hot-dry here, and that is not the same as other heat. For example, the sun is hot even in 70 something temps, so stuff burns from it even if it is not burning hot. Thank you for the suggestions, I'm pretty excited to try some of them, and surprised specifically about Prospero and Chrysler Imperial, who knew?
Good point about cultural practices, my recently repotted roses are already looking better. A lot of the terrible looking roses I've seen around are in unkept beds with dry hard-looking soil and sprinkler runoff, and I definitely won't be doing that. Now I won't be so nervous, with time most of them will probably do ok anyway.
Double Delight burns at the edges in my hot inland garden.
Henry Fonda, St. Pats, Marilyn Monroe, and to my surprise, Julia Child do well. Yeah, there's a lot of yellow here.
LOL, 70F is sweater weather here. Roses will flourish and it's too cold to swim. We call it 'winter' and it lasts about 2 weeks.
Phx has now logged 14 straight days of 100F. Even the President got a taste of our 'hot' when he spoke at ASU graduation last week.
This is good info. A question I've been wanting to ask, so I can add more roses.
In my garden, Gingersnap does great in full sun, as well as, Night Owl, Brilliant Pink Iceberg, Intrigue, Love, Double Delight, and Ebb Tide.
I am in very hot-dry territory, right near Sacramento. NO roses do well above 90-95. My roses get full sun all day. Once established and mulched, my best ones for heat are:
St. Patrick, English Sachet, Summer Fashion, Honey Bouquet, Jean Giono, Crimson Bouquet, Black Cherry, Tuscan Sun, etc.
I usually sp roses that can't bloom well in the heat. I mean the ones that can't be full-sized and just look good for a day or so.
One thing to be aware of is that buds that develop in cooler weather suffer the worst when it suddenly heats up. This happens mostly in spring, when you are going along nicely in the 70's or so and are very suddenly hit with those high 90's and above. My roses all fried twice recently when we had 100 degree spells. It is heartbreaking. really.
Yep, my newer buds are doing fine but are a lot smaller than in spring. But some of the roses have to be moved to morning sun only this weekend. From now on, no more of these delicate princesses allowed in my garden!
Thank you for your suggestions, I will definitely put them to good use next time I must have new roses (which is all the time).
I'm with Moroseaz ! I live in Bullhead City Arizona, where the bumper stickers say "Bullhead City - wind chill factor: 105F" !
I use shade cloth for my "babies", as well as planting them in half-barrels (to be able to move them around); they currently "live" in light shade...temps are now 100 plus...dry, dry heat(single digit humidity)until late summer monsoon season:temps will still be around 100, but with NASTY humidity ! but very little actual rain drops ! When and if it DOES "rain", I run out to the street and play "connect the dots" and do a happy dance !
In winter (which lasts about 2-4 weeks, like Moroseaz said)they are moved to full sun areas... I have chosen to switch, not fight the climate ! It's taken me nearly twenty years to reach this stage, but I'm finally crying "uncle" ! Much less stressful in my old age !
My ammunition is now limited to shade cloths, light shade, lots of mulch, epsom salts, society garlic, water, water, water, and then MORE water ! oh yeah, and a wide brimmed straw hat (for me) !
One more thing, I water all my plants in early evening (still light out)which is much more comfortable for us all ! I don't worry about wet leaves, they're dry before I can turn off the water spigot ! Overnight lows around 70F (sweater weather like Moroseaz said !)

Anna-Lisa and her daughter were wonderful guests. They were quiet, respectful, easy to communicate with and left the place clean. We would welcome them back anytime!
Anna-Lisa was very nice and communicative. Since I was traveling during her stay I did not get to meet her, however, post her stay I felt she could have been a bit less messy. Overall, I had no issues communicating with her.
Compared with other guests, these folks were a bit less tidy.
AnnaLisa and her friends are very nice people and excellent guest!
Ospiti graditissimi e molto simpatici. Purtroppo una delle due docce si è rotta improvvisamente (la seconda però perfettamente funzionante) ed è già in riparazione. Il costo dell'aria condizionata, specificato nelle REGOLE DELLA CASA, diversamente dal solito, è stato di euro 100,00 , forse dovuto ad un uso ininterrotto.
Faremo il possibile affinchè il prossimo soggiorno a Venezia sia inappuntabile.
great guests, easy to communicate with, def would rent to again

2000 Lexus SC 400 2dr Coupe
With the power of a DB7, the agility of a Lotus, the fuel-economy of a much smaller car (forget the EPA; I average 31 mpg) and the legendary reliability of... well, a Lexus, the 2000 Lexus SC 400 is quite simply the greatest 2+2 GT yet conceived. It may not have 21st century electronics, but it doesn't need them; I looked at everything from Bentleys to Aston Martins to newer installments in the Lexus line, and no other car came close to the now bargain-priced SC 400.
Other cars may be faster or more efficient or more comfortable, but the SC 400 truly is the complete package.
If there's anything that enthusiasts and consumers alike both hate, it's compromises, and this car makes none.

Being an owner of 1 of less than 500 cars made, is an exciting opportunity. I am very happy with my purchase. This car begs to be hammered and is so responsive. Mine has TSC and ETC which are must-haves in the northern climate. Amazing comfort and better than I expected on gas mileage for an 8 have been getting over 20 mpg. Of course if you drive hard it does get a little thirsty.

Central Indiana nurseries
I'll start the third year with my garden this summer. I am still putting in a lot of beds. I'm going to go to the Central Indiana plant exchange at Holiday Park (if they have it this year) to trade plants and I'm going to mooch from friends (Who have also benefitted from my gardens at previous houses). However, I'm sure that I'll want to buy some plants, too. What are your favorite nurseries in Central Indiana? I enjoy going on fieldtrips to new garden places. My favorites in the Indianapolis area are
Woodlands Edge
the greenhouse at the art museum
but these places are a bit pricey. Do you have any suggestions for outstanding places (especially if they are more affordable)?
My sister likes L&P in Henry County.
My favorite is Allisonville Nursery up in Fishers. I don't know how it ranks on the scale of affordability, but I'm on their mailing list and get some nice coupons every couple of months. They have a great selection, large plant sizes, and everything we've gotten from there has done well.
I've been pretty pleased with the selection (and the prices, not cheap, but okay for the size of plants they sell, generally) at Eagle Creek Nusery on 80something & Lafayette Rd on the Northwest sides of Indy.

What is the Holliday Park plant exchange and when is it? Can anyone become part of it? Thanks.
The Master Gardeners in Hamilton County have a plant sale every May for one Saturday. This year it is May 21, 2006 from 8-2. It is held in the Annex Building, Hamilton County 4-H Fair Grounds, 2003 E. Pleasant St., Noblesville, Indiana. Also the Indiana Native Plant Society has a sale. It is Saturday, May 13, 2006 at the
Indiana School for the Blind, 7725 N. College Avenue, Indianapolis.
Millers in Noblesville for an amazing collection of hostas,daylilies and iris. They have won awards for some of their iris. And best of all the prices are more than affordable. They also sell unusual trees and shrubs. For me, they are well worth the drive down from Fort Wayne.
Pamven hit the nail on the head w/ Miller's - best nursery around! Take 37N to 191st street, turn right and they're on the left side about 2 miles down.
There is also a FABULOUS nursery in Avon - Avon Perennial Gardens - WOW. I think the website is the same as the name if you want to look it up!
Another huge favorite for unusual shade plants is Frady's out past Cumberland on Hwy 40.
Yeah! Sounds like a blast! I'll definitely do it. I want to try to find some new gardens. Maybe we could head to Munchkin (never been there, only picked up stuff at markets) and then hit everything else along the way. Lemme save up some dough and we'll hit the road! :)
Re Miller's: what kind of unusual trees and shrubs do they have? I live on the other (west) side of 37 off 191st St. but haven't been out there to see what they have, do you know what their hours are?
(and curious if the Noblesville Millers - high school name - comes from this family connection?)
(not been living in Noblesville long enough, obviously!)
Sherry, no clue on the high school connex. :) They have a ton of unusual evergreen and deciduous shrubs, plus everything else. I really can't name them as they have 4 greenhouse tents as well as a huge holding area. They have hostas, daylilies, a bazillion other unusual shade and sun perennials. Sorry this isn't more helpful but I couldn't begin to list them.
Here is their website w/ some info and you can call for hours: (see link)

Sorry I haven't been back here for a while, but Munchkin is located in Milltown, IN. The website is Munchkinnursery.com. Gene Bush is the owner, and they are open by appointment only. He mainly deals in shade plants. It's one of those 'you can't get there from here' kind of places. Milltown is tiny, but there is also a canoe rental place to take a ride down the Blue River. Come on down and enjoy a day in southern IN.
