Hello again. I don't know about your garden, but the weeds are already winning in mine. They must feed on moonbeams or some stardust fertilizer formula, the way they get an overnight jump on me. I am considering an 11-3 shift on my knees to close the gap. Don't get me wrong. I'm not puling, not yet anyway, just pointing out the obvious. No one has dropped a "Garden of the Month" sign in my yard, not even by mistake!
My colleagues have compiled a long list of questions for this month that we hope will be timely and helpful. Here goes:
First, some questions dealing with the planting of seeds:
1. When planting seeds, should the seed bed be moist before the seeds are sown?
Definitely, but recognize the difference between "moist" and "wet;" beads of water should not form when you squeeze a handful of soil. If the soil is dry, water the beds first to ensure they are evenly moist before sowing. After sowing, water again.
2. Which soil mix is best for seeds sown indoors?
Use a soilless mix such as half sand, perlite or vermiculite and half peat moss; or pure fine sand, vermiculite or sphagnum moss.
3. One colleague complained that when she filled her flats with a perlite soil mix and then watered the mix prior to sowing, all the perlite floated to the top, and the soil mix didn't moisten evenly. How could she get control of this process?
There are two ways to get control of the process. You can put the soil mix into a large bowl or plastic bag and add one to one and a half cups of warm water for every four cups of soil. A second approach is to lower the filled tray very gently into a shallow pan of water and allow the water to be absorbed from the drain holes below. Be patient. Sing a gardening song or some such.
4. Why do seedlings sown in the house grow to about an inch, bend over and die? Yet another cause for onset of gardeners' despair.
This is due to a fungus disease called damping off. Using the sterile soilless mixes will solve this problem in most cases. You can also help prevent it by treating the sowing medium with a fungicide, thinning seedlings properly and not overwatering.
And now some other lawn and garden questions:
5. Are there some plants which should NOT be fertilized?
While some plants such as nasturtium, spider flower, portulaca, amaranthus, cosmos and gazania prefer a lean, infertile soil to insure proper growth and flowering, it is best to let your soil test report guide you in any fertilizer application.
6. Is it true that if flowers are picked off, the plant will bloom better?
It is absolutely beneficial to deadhead plants to encourage continued flower development. Picking off the flowers as soon as they fade prevents the formation of seed that is a drain on the plant's energy. And dedicated gardeners will attest to the stress-reducing effects of deadheading. Imagine that rude clerk or the customer service agent in New Delhi as you pinch and toss those lifeless blooms. It really works!
7. Are grass clippings good for use as mulch?
As with any yard waste, when properly composted, these green by-products return nutrients to the soil and can reduce weed germination. Remember, however, that as yard debris decomposes, it gives off a great deal of heat and ties up nitrogen, which can damage nearby plants.
8. How close should you spread mulch to the bases of trees and shrubs?
Keep the mulch two inches from trees and one inch from shrubs.
9. When is the best time to lay sod for my lawn?
For warm-season grasses, late spring is the ideal time because root growth initiates when soil temperatures reach 70 degrees.
10. Are wood ashes good for the lawn?
Wood ashes supply lime and potassium to a lawn. Because it's fairly difficult to spread ashes evenly on a lawn, you may want to save them for the garden. Watch out though. It's very possible to overuse them if you spread them on the same soil year after year. The soil, even in the most acid of areas, simply becomes too sweet (has too high a pH), in which case you might have to reverse the action by adding sulfur to the lawn. A reminder here that soil testing will give you the best idea of whether the ashes will benefit a particular area of your garden.
11. How can I encourage birds to nest in my yard?
Here are some cheap enticements to lure the birds your way. Use leftover fabric scraps from craft projects which you have cut into six-inch strips. Place these along with pet hair (which has not been treated for fleas or ticks) into a suet feeder. If you don't have a suet feeder at the ready, roll the fabric scraps and hair into a loose ball and secure it with wire. Then suspend the ball from a welcoming bough and watch the home decorating begin. Small piles of twigs and untreated grass clippings left about the yard are equivalent to an avian mattress factory and pottery barn combined.
I know you've all been perusing the various nurseries, glorying in the lovely colors and multitude of choices of annuals and perennials available for purchase. Let me share a very meaningful definition of a perennial: a perennial is a plant which, had it lived, would come back every year. With that definition in mind, I did a little survey in the local nurseries and am proffering a list for you of those perennials which might best tolerate our unforgiving heat and drought conditions and truly come back every year: Salvia "Sensation White," Lavandula "Mulberry Ruffles," Dianthus "Rosish One," Verbena "Homestead Purple," Aguilegia "Origami Mix" (Columbine), Coreopsis auriculata "Nana," Phlox subulata "Scarlet Flame." Best of luck with these.
Meanwhile, Mr. Filbrun is cultivating a most promising crop of new Master Gardener volunteers over at the County Extension Office. By now, they have sunk their roots deep into that voluminous white resource book and plowed through the reams of supplementary reading on subjects ranging from muscadine management to soil sampling. They know how to prune and propagate and they will soon come eye to eye with those nasty nematodes under the microscopes at N.C. State University.
I am delighted to addend a testimonial of sorts from Ben Brinson, a highly coveted male member of the 2011 Class of Master Gardener volunteers. Ben was a most reluctant candidate. He admits to being submitted to an intense level of coercion to join the class.
He feared, as many do, that he might expire from lengthy lectures on lawns and lettuces. Instead, he has found himself in the company of a very congenial group of classmates whose primary interests range from frogs and fish to birds and blueberries. He has found that the coursework relates and applies in a myriad of wondrous ways to his own interests and is opening up other paths to pursue, all within the blooming boundaries of the garden. He joins me in inviting you to consider becoming a Master Gardener volunteer, Class of 2012.

Ask A Master Gardener
Edgecombe's Extension Master Gardener Volunteers are holding their Spring-Planting Bulb Event tomorrow (March 23) at Marrow-Pitt Ace Home Center in the garden department from 10 a.m. until 1 pm. The volunteers will be giving demonstrations on basic bulb planting as well as container planting (bring your own or purchase one from stock). A variety of pre-packaged summer and fall-blooming bulbs will be sold including: ginger lilies, rain lilies, galtonia, agapanthus, tuberosa, liatris, tigridia, cannas, nerines and many more. Proceeds from the bulb sales will fund the Extension Master Gardener Volunteers' spring/summer projects, including those sanctioned by this year's America in Bloom competition committee. Ace is located at 1713 N. Main St.

"As the promise of spring begins to beckon the attention of "dormant" gardeners this time of year, so it is with those dormant weeds that will appear soon enough, making for a lot of catch up work to get our lawns ready for show time," says local Master Gardener Trainee, Bernice Pitt who has just completed certification in an NC State University course in Turf Management. Pitt is manager of the lawn and garden center at Marrow-Pitt Ace Home Center in Tarboro and is ready to help you with solutions in
maintaining your lawn. "I have found that the best source for answers to questions regarding turf grasses is the site:
www.turffiles.ncsu.edu and another,
www.turfweedmanagement.ncsu./weedmanagement.aspx," Pitt added. "It's where we found answers to this week's questions." -

Sanitation: An Important Garden Chore
So, what will tomorrow bring? At this time of year, we are riding the roller coaster up and down as winter and spring duke it out. While it is still too early to start most seeded varieties of annual flower and vegetable varieties, it is not too early to prepare for the upcoming gardening season.
"Ask A Master Gardener"
John W. (Tarboro) Asks: A neighbor posed this question to pass along. They did nothing to winterize their yard and, as a result, have all of the winter-type weeds that survive everything. They wanted to know if there is anything they can do now to kill off the weeds and what and when do they start to try and green up their yard and kill back weeds as we head out of winter.

This week, we have two questions coming from visitors to the Blount-Bridgers House Garden. The garden committee works regularly each week to maintain this lovely garden oasis in Tarboro's Historic District. Garden manager, Jeni Filbrun invites you to join the volunteers, "the weekly weeders," each Wednesday morning at 10 for an hour of garden tending.

When I signed up with nationwide I was quoted a resonable price. Of course the price quoted and the price I got after I signed up was very different. so after about a year of paying too much I switched to a company that was way less and I called Nationwide to cancel my account. they said that I needed to send in a written and signed cancellation letter. So with my last payment I sent my cancellation letter and what a wait off my shoulders. Until about a month and a half later I get a bill from them saying I owe so much for the last month. so I call them and they say they must not have received the letter and to fax another one. so I did and I guess they didn't get that either. I am so mad right now and you can bet I am not paying two car insurance companies. Although I am happy to pay my new company because they treat me so well (usaa) unlike nationwide, I just want to be free from their clutches.

I purchased a pair of glasses back in Dec 2012. When I picked them up I started wearing them . Well they gave me a headache. I called the company and took them back, 3 times we did this. Picked them up the last time and they told me there was nothing else they could do for me. So I kept them. I tried to wear them and they still gave me a headache.
Now I am in Idaho and I took them into an Eye Dr. here who checked them out and low and behold they were off ( The PD) they were off 7 mm and off 8 mm to my old glasses to what they were suppose to match. They were suppose to be 30.5 on one side and 31 on the other side. They even built 2 other sets that were done in the mean time and they all gave me a headache.
Now my Eye Dr would like 158.00 to make them right. Why should I pay him when I have already paid to have them fixed and they could not fix them. NATIONWIDE IS NOT ON YOUR SIDE

My car was hit by a Nationwide insured individual. The appraiser they sent out wrote an estimate for 1/3 of the damage as if they expected me to accept it. I have years of experience in auto repair and pointed out the frame and structural damage and he ignored it all. This is after 3 days of car sitting wrecked and no offer of a rental. It would seem to me that Nationwide policy is to rip people off for the actual money as when I complained he was defended by company. I wonder how many thousands of people have been shorted by Nationwide, seems like criminal behavior to me

I was involved in a minor accident in February. The estimate for repair by a Nationwide approved estimator was below what would raise insurance rates. The repair location found additional damage and Nationwide accepted the damage which put me over the acceptable limit. I should have been contacted to discuss or pay the additional amount. Now I will be paying a substantial amount to Nationwide for the next three years. It was to their advantage to not tell me about the additional charges and not allow me to make up the difference. The insurance industry should mandate that the customer be informed and allowed to pay for any additional damages at the customer's choice.

I have been insured by Nationwide for probably 10 years. I was thinking of switching to save some money but was recently in a wreck. I called my agent Steve Wall and was so impressed I'll never leave. Not only did he help me through the claim but he also drove to the wreck and put all of my tools in his car and drove me to get a rental. My truck was towed, and totaled.
Make sure you have a good agent and Nationwide is the place to be.

Recently I file a claim for a water heater, that was leaking. It took 3 days for a plumber to call and scheduled and appt. The plumber came the next day and took a look at he water heater and said I need a new water heater, I will need and authorization from nationwide to replaced, collect his $60 and left.
I waited for 3 days no call from the plumber company or nationwide and no hot water now for 7 days. Call Nationwide again just to find out that they declined to replace the water heater and I need to provide a maintenance record.

Yahoo Patent Letter to Facebook Referring to Memcached and Other Open Source Technologies
Sarah Lacy:
The technologies in question include things like memcached which was created in 2003 by LiveJournal and has been used longer than Facebook has been alive.[…]
Other examples include Open Compute, an open hardware project started by Facebook that focuses on low-cost, energy efficient server and data center hardware; Tornado a Python-based web server used for building real-time Web services; and HPHP, a source code transformer that turns PHP into C++.
I have no other details about this patent letter Yahoo sent Facebook, but I seriously doubt it targets these technologies separately. Most probably it refers to some sort of combinations of these and one that Facebook has mentioned as part of their IP.

Food was good but our waiter was
very slow and didn't check on us at all through out the meal. We actually have to ask other waiters for our requests. This for sure can ruin a good meal."
Dined on 3/11/2014
This was under whelming - so many
misses - the service was slow - had our apps and it took 30 mins to come back and ask if we wanted an entree. This is American Lebanese food. My grandmother would be ashamed. If trendy and kind of Lebanese is your goal. This will be fine. Very disappointing."
Dined on 3/11/2014
Fabulous, well presented
Mediterranean food with a twist. Their steak tartare is OUT OF THIS WORLD and their selection of Lebanese wines was fabulous. Lovely setting (be sure to ask for a downstairs spot if you want the full effect or else the upstairs area is good for a romantic meal). Service staff make you feel very welcome and are super helpful and friendly. I was missing some good mezze after our Egyptian holiday but this hit the spot! Loved this place - we will definitely be back."
Dined on 2/28/2014
I came here early on a Saturday
night with two girlfriends. We ordered a bunch of the small plates - all recommendations by the waitress. Everything was amazing! Would definitely recommend the meat tartare and brussel sprouts! Definitely going back!"
Dined on 3/8/2014
A group of 7 of us participated in
Restaurant Week. Ilili's restaurant week menu was excellent and so was their food. Service was friendly, thoughtful and helpful. I highly recommend it. Each of us had different appetizers and entrees, and each that I tasted was extremely well prepared. Architecture of the restaurant was very interesting and sophisticated - almost like a Frank Lloyd Wright design. My only negative would be how noisy the music was. We had a great deal of trouble hearing each other."
Dined on 3/7/2014
It is not the classical
Middle-Eastern Lebanese food. Although the Beiruti Kebbe Nayeh was amazing and reminded me of home, and so did the Chicken Livers, the rest is different, but still really good. I also had the Kale Fattoush which was good and interesting and the Mouhamara, which wasn't as strong as it should be. The entree I had which was the Braised Beef Moujamadeh wasn't great. it was good, but I expected it to be better. But we finished our meal on a great dessert which was the Labneh cheesecake. A bit too small, but delicious. I recommend this restaurant because they have interesting choices that you will not regret. Middle-eastern food with a twist."
Dined on 3/7/2014
I came here for restaurant week
with my boyfriend. There were many great reviews about this restaurant and it definitely did not disappoint. The kanafeh was amazing. Would definitely come back again"

Impossible to have a conversation
except for screaming across the table at each other. Food delicious."

Went for a nice dinner with a
group from work. Part social, part work. Our server was FANTASTIC - helped us build a great a selection, which was nice as none of us were Mediterranean experts. Each item was absolutely delicious. Whole experience exceeded our expectations. Would heartily recommend."
Dined on 3/4/2014
Appetizers were great! Make sure
you order a bunch to share for the table. Candy bar dessert is a must!"
Dined on 3/5/2014
Good dinner but upsetting that
everyone had to do restaurant week (or not). I had a bigger party and we had a hard time deciding. I think doing restaurant week was not the best decision in the end, but that's what we did pick."
Dined on 3/5/2014
Dishes were all good/very good.
But the service was awful...as a former waitress I'm not one to complain. Our plates remained for 30 min after finishing. We sat on time (7pm resy) and didn't leave until 10:20! Expected to enjoy the happy hr I read about and to try "From Beirut with Passion" (delish). When the bill came, I learned the special applies only in the bar/lounge (most of the restaurant) and not the dining room (which I did not request but I guess it's where they tend to seat reservations). I'm fine with restricted specials...when it's actually mentioned on the menus/by the waitress! The manager did take two of the six drinks off (with attitude), but it was too little too late. It was annoying not to be informed and have no choice."

We ordered from the Restaurant Wk
menu, which was very diverse in offering fish, beef, lamb, vegetarian & chicken entrees. We were given a choice of 2 appetizers from 8? selections and all 4 were fantastic. The chicken kabobs were great and risotto was wonderful. The service was attentive. The deserts were very good and small--- which for us were perfect."

Ten minute walk from Madison
Square Garden but MILES away from the usual pre-event steakhouse fare. Fabulous starter menu is perfect for picking a bunch and sharing with the group. We had eight starters and I am hard pressed to state my favorites because they were all so good. However I loved the kale fattoush, and he kibbeh naye mixed with the tomato and feta cheese chankleesh. Lamb chops were a standout too. And the steak pleased the Steakhouse holdout in our party."

We were in the side room. Not as
pretty as the main room but a little quieter so a tradeoff. Food was excellent. The waiter was charming but they seemed a bit disorganized and took a long time to come to the table which is why I rated service only good. The food was surprisingly interesting and very well prepared. I enjoyed it a lot!"

ilili has a trendy atmosphere and
a nice sounding menu, and when we went for restaurant week we were excited to try it. The food wasn't bad, but this restaurant was all about the upsell, in ways that eventually became ridiculous. When it came to drinks, our server gave us a range of gin options and suggested one in particular, without mentioning that it would cost extra. When it came to ordering food, she asked us which side we would like, rather than whether we would like a side. My friend thought to ask if this was extra, and it was. Another friend's dish came with tahini sauce and when she asked for a little bit more, she was charged two dollars for a little bit of sauce. ilili is a tacky place, and we would not come back."

Came for restaurant week (everyone
has to eat off that menu) for the second year in a row and it is a GREAT deal. all the appetizers were tasty, but standouts: Kibbe Naye Beirutieh (steak tartar spread)--VERY authentic, Arnabeet Mekle (spicy cauliflower over hummus), and Kebab Kerez (lamb and beef meatballs. OMG they are amazing!) Entree: scallops are cooked to perfection but have a smoked taste to them, the steak is HUGE and tasty (a little spicy as well), and the lambchops are great. Cant go wrong with any of the desserts, but for stand out of something different, try the Knafe Bil Jibneh. It's like an upside down sweet cheese danish served with seasame bread. signature drinks are wonderful; the cedar cider is great if you like bourbon"
Dined on 3/3/2014
The food was good, but the
portions were very small. I know it's tapas type but we literally got a bite site dessert. I'm not sure if this was b/c we ordered from the restaurant week menu. I read reviews on the brussel sprouts so I ended up ordering them, and they were delicious as everyone said! I may go back, but not for restaurant week."

Booked through the Restaurant Week
website via Open Table, but when we got there (and they attempted to seat us by the bright red EXIT SIGN and back door - we were told that is only valid Monday - Friday. FIne, whatever - we stayed anyway, but those were two annoying strikes in what was a lovely restaurant, and meal. Flavorful and interesting dishes, friendly services, delicious Taste of Lebanon dessert."

I must admit that I was
disappointed in my lunch, after all the great reviews. My lunch was excellent but my son's meal was only good. It was expensive for the quality of what I got. We were in the back room and it was cold and the lighting was poor. I can only imagine how loud it would be at night. I was hoping for a wonderful experience but instead found it overpriced for what I got."
Dined on 2/28/2014
I went here twice in one week,
both for restaurant week. You hear a lot about restaurants being snooty to customers who order off the Restaurant Week menu but everyone at ilili was accommodating and very gracious, even helping us expand a lunch reservation from 6-10 people an hour before our reservation. And if you like mediterranean food, this is a must! All the appetizers are great for sharing, entrees and desserts are delicious. The scene is trendy without the attitude. Great for a girls night, romantic dinner for two, or drinks in their lounge."
Dined on 2/28/2014
Tried their restaurant week menu
which contained a good portion of the regular menu items. The appetizers / small plates were very good. To start we had the Hummus, Falafel, Chicken Livers, and Grilled Cauliflower, all of which were very tasty. The home made Pita bread was incredible and after 4 plates and bread for the two of us, we were already pretty full! On the down side, the mains were 'average'. There was nothing special or memorable about the dish. We ordered the stripped bass (over a butter sauce) and the braised beef over sauteed lentils. Again, both were good but nothing special. Overall, I'd come here with a small group 4-6 and just order small plates and some drinks."

Really friendly atmosphere and

Dined on 2/28/2014
Each dish, a very large portion,
is authentically Lebanese. Ten tempting starters to choose from! Seven entrees, most lamb based. Four desserts. :Ashta (clotted cream) my favorite. Noise level during prime time is deafening due to the beautiful wood and glass architecture. If conversation is important, choose off-hours."
Dined on 2/27/2014
Ilili holds up on repeat visits:
beautiful, sleek contemporary decor; excellent food; great service and for wine lovers, an extensive list of Lebanese wines. Love the use of traditional Arabic ingredients in creative contemporary dishes, such as the sauteed dandelion greens appetizer I had, and the ecellent lamb shank "sandwich." Definitely will return!"

Dined on 2/26/2014
I went with a group of 6 people on
a Wednesday night. We decided on the restaurant week menu, though it did not offer some of ilili's more well known items because it offered 2 appetizers each, an entree and a dessert. Of note on the starters: kale salad, ffeta and tomato salad, the jalapeño or cauliflower hummus, and the eggplant. The falafel appetizer was large and too filling. They also gave us unlimited pita bread. The sea bass was light and buttery and a great entree after gorging on appetizers. Dessert: get the knefeh!! The ilili candy bar is a close second and much smaller. Overall wonderful experience. Great for sharing. Added bonus: all of the servers are incredibly handsome."
Dined on 2/26/2014
If you love any kind of middle
eastern food, you will love ilili. Everything we had was so flavorful and fresh. The service is amazing, attentive and knowledgable about all the food and perfect suggestions. Menus is heavy on lamb options, but I don't eat it and still felt there were entry of choices."

Met 6 other women for lunch and
got to sample a lot as we all shared, it was delicious. The restaurant was not too crowded so the noise level was fine. The service was excellent. Dinner for four of us during restaurant week was a different experience. Crowded, noisy, small table, rushed waiter, he even dumped garbage into a dish we were taking home. The food was like night and day, leaving me wishing I didn't come at night."

I went here for Restaurant Week
with a friend I haven't seen for a long time. The portion sizes were pleasantly substantial. I had falafel, salad, risotto entree, and the candy bar dessert. No flavor surprises, but everything was satisfying. If I were craving Mediterranean food, ilili would exactly hit the spot. Seating probably isn't as intimate as I would like for a date, but for a non-romantic dinner, the noise level was good for conversation, and the design is clean, but cozy. Lots of rectangles in warm tones. I think this would be a good place to take sheltered parents from out of town. Finally, they didn't rush us out after we were finished, which is especially gregarious, considering how little we were able to spend."
Dined on 2/25/2014
I went to Ilili for the restaurant
week lunch. There was a good choice and the waitress was very helpful and gave some good suggestions on appetizer and entree. I got the sea bass which was really good. The place has a large amount of seating and is good for groups as well as couples. A bit on the expensive side, ilili would be a good choice for a special ocassion."

I was excited to experience the
menu at ilili from all the reviews I had read prior to Restaurant Week. The Pre-Fixe included 2 appetizers, main course and desert all of which were beautifully plated and absolutely delicious. What I took offense with was the manner in which our server interacted with us. The stipulation with the RW Pre-Fixe was that all members of the dining party had to participate or pay the regular values of their meals. We were informed of this twice by the same server in a tone that was almost like a warning and not a choice. The condescending tone continued when explaining our meals/choices to us. Then items were taken away from our table w/out communication and brought to other tables. Overall, we felt dismissed."

text: MEDFORD, Mass. --- Michelle Burt (Woodbridge, Conn.) and the Colby College field hockey team gave 17th-ranked Tufts University all it could handle as the Jumbos held on for a 3-2 NESCAC win Saturday. Colby falls to 2-3 overall and 0-3 in the NESCAC, while Tufts moves to 4-1 overall and 2-1 in the conference. Burt continues to have an outstanding season in the cage for Colby. She has 51 saves in five games and has made 10 or more saves in all three of the Mules' NESCAC contests. Despite a 33-7 shot advantage and a 23-2 penalty corner edge, Burt stopped 15 shots to keep her team in the game. Tufts took a 1-0 lead just five minutes into action when senior co-captain Lia Sagerman (LaJolla, Calif.) tallied her third goal of the year on a rebound. Colby came right back and scored on its only shot of the first half as first-year Ellie Donohue (Andover, Mass.) scored on an attempt that bounced off a Tufts defender in front. That tied the game 1-1 with 26:15 on the clock. Megan Fortier (Falmouth, Maine) had the assist on the goal. The quick scoring pace continued, as Emily Cannon scored her first on a play in front with 11:47 elapsed and Tufts was up 2-1. Cannon's second goal of the game came on a backhand shot off a pass from first-year Amanda Jamison (Gaithersburg, Md.) to make it 3-1 with 17 minutes remaining in regulation. The Mules cut the margin to 3-2 on a great passing play from Fortier to sophomore Kaitlyn O'Connell (Danvers, Mass.) with 10:36 remaining. Fortier leads Colby in scoring with three goals and three assists for nine points, while Donohue is up to four goals on the season. Sophomore Brianna Keenan (Greenland, NH) earned the win in goal, making two second-half saves.

NEW YORK — Looks like President Barack Obama's allies got the hint.
An independent group with deep ties to the president's re-election campaign launched a television ad Tuesday hitting Mitt Romney's business practices at Bain Capital, just 24 hours after Obama's team debuted its own ad attacking the Republican presidential candidate's work at the private equity firm.
By law, campaigns and the outside groups are forbidden from working with each other. But at times like this, the lines of separation seem blurred if not crossed.
"The idea that these groups are independent is a fiction in reality terms and, we believe, a fiction in legal terms," said Fred Wertheimer of Democracy 21, a campaign finance reform advocacy group.
The back-to-back Obama spots, to run in four of the same five general election swing states, are a sign of the new world of campaign finance, where so-called super political action committees have wide leeway to spend as much as they want to help or hurt candidates. And the ads also cast new light on the cozy relationship between campaigns and these groups, raising questions about how independent they are from each other.
The coziness isn't limited to Democrats. A Romney-aligned super PAC is keeping him competitive on TV as he regroups for the general election. And the relationship between that group — Restore Our Future — and the presumptive GOP nominee was on vivid display during the Republican primaries, when the group spent $36 million on ads assailing the former Massachusetts governor's rivals.
Super PACs, born of a 2010 Supreme Court decision easing political spending rules, can raise and spend unlimited donations as long as they don't coordinate directly with the campaigns they support. But the lines are often blurry: The pro-Obama super PAC Priorities USA Action is run by former Obama White House aides, while Restore Our Future is staffed by former Romney advisers.
Strategists for the super PACs insist they are operating independently and are not relying on signals from the presidential campaigns as to what advertising strategy to pursue. But campaign finance watchdogs are crying foul, arguing that super PACs have effectively become high-dollar shadow campaign operations for candidates otherwise constrained by much stricter federal campaign finance rules.
Said Wertheimer: "Candidate-specific super PACs are simply arms of the presidential campaigns and need to be treated as such and be subject to contribution limits."
Republicans have generally welcomed the emergence of super PACs, and several GOP-leaning groups spent millions to take control of the House and pick up six Senate seats in 2010. Obama sharply criticized the emergence of super PACs that year but ultimately green-lighted contributions to Priorities USA Action after it became clear that his campaign and other Democrats would be vastly outgunned otherwise.
Tuesday's new ad launched by Priorities USA Action highlights the failure of GST Steel, a Kansas City, Mo.-based company purchased by Bain Capital that went bankrupt and laid off 750 workers in 2001. A day earlier, the Obama campaign announced it was targeting Bain's management of GST Steel in a two-minute ad.
Priorities USA Action is spending $4 million to air the new ad, while the Obama campaign committed just under $100,000 to run its commercial. But Bill Burton, a former Obama White House aide who now heads Priorities USA Action, said the timing of the two ads was a coincidence and his group had not waited for the Obama campaign to go after Bain before making a similar attack.
"It wasn't a matter of waiting for anything, this was our strategy," Burton said, adding that the ad had been shot in February and the group has several more it plans to air related to Bain.
"There are four or five examples that are particularly telling of how Mitt Romney made decisions when he was in private business. We had planned on telling this story regardless," Burton said.

Screen protector questions
Just wondering how those who don't have screen protectors on screens are holding up. I have a few scratches on my screen protector and I'm interested to know of those would have occurred if the screen was naked. I'd the glass tougher to scratch than protector. Can anyone who does not use one let me know how their screens are bearing up thanks

I have never had a screen protector on any of my Iphones and I have had them all from the very first Iphone1to the Iphone 5 I have now lol.. The glass is very scratch resistant and I have never had an issue. I do not like the way the screen feels with that protector on it.

It really doesn't matter how others are holding up or not. Some will have scratches. Some will be in worse shape than others. What matters is what works for you. You need to make the call regarding what precautions you're willing to take to help mitigate scratches.
Whether or not anyone else has scratches or how bad they are means nothing regarding what you will specifically experience. It's a matter that varies from person to person. If you want random opinions there are countless screen protector threads that you can refer to. Depends on the specific screen protector. They're not all identical. The point of a screen protector isn't for the protector to not get scratched. Screen protectors are sacrificial parts. They're intended to take the scratch instead of your actual screen and for easy replacement. Whether you think it's worth using one or not is a call that you need to make for yourself. Again, there are countless screen protector threads with varying opinions that you can use in forming your own opinion. |

I know my iPhone gets scratched a lot more easily than my Nexus. I used my Nexus for three months without a protector, and it was mirror clean. My old iPhone 4 had lots of little scratches all over the screen.
I use PowerSupport for screen protectors. They're clear and feel similar to the actual glass surface. If you don't want to spend too much, try Aduro or Halo on Amazon - they have similar (but not identical) quality for about 20% of the price. Since my debacle with the iPhone 4, I've never touched an iOS device without first putting a screen protector on it.

The arrangement of swirls on a pine cone, fluctuations in the value of currency, or the detail in an abstract geometric figure...mathematics reveals and explains these patterns.
The aim of Trinity's mathematics department is to use analytical thinking to help prepare students to be Christians who are qualified and professional in their chosen vocations. This happens in three ways:
With a proficiency in mathematics, you will succeed professionally in your chosen work environment whether your next step is graduate school, industry, or the elementary or secondary school classroom.
And the College's proximity to metropolitan Chicago offers its mathematics majors unique education and employment advantages. The wide diversity of industry, business, and institutions allow for a broad range of internship opportunities. Other activities include area-wide competitions, lectures and conferences, and annual opportunities for presentations of student research.

These pails were so cute. Had a beach theme party for my 3 year old that loves the beach. So instead of loot bags I use the pails for all the kids goodie bags. All the kids loved them. Wish they came in different color instead of all the same but over all worked well, ready for the beach.

God Bless

"Health is important and too many things usually get in the way of actually taking an authentically powerful product. Loyalties can be divided. I want to make it where mine lies. My loyalty is to those who want to thrive, and those whose life situation requires them to thrive. My loyalty is to the end user. My loyalty... is to you. And in my life now and one day, when I look back upon my life, that has and will still have value to me incomparable to any amount of money, investors, or fame. "The quality, therapeutic concentration, and affordability of a nutritional product can, and often does, mean the difference between lethargy and energy, sickness and health, and, quite literally, life and death. I don't want anyone to be tired, sick or dead because they could not obtain or afford the best possible product. If someone does not feel this same way, they should not be in the nutritional product business. I live and breathe this philosophy in both my personal and professional life and constantly strive to evolve HealthForce products and offer them at the best possible values. I would rather die than compromise these principles"
-Jameth Sheridan (Naturopath & Alternative Medicine Research Scientist)
100% TruGanic: Since the USDA now owns Organic, pesticides and other poisons are allowed on and in Organic products under many circumstances! ... and pure foods like probiotics, enzymes, zeolite, charcoal, bentonite, wildcrafted herbs and many superfoods are Not considered organic, even if grown organically and 100% verified free of pesticides, GMO, and irradiation, TruGanic, on the other hand, is Not for sale to anyone at any price! It is a purist, hard-core quality standard significantly beyond Organic standards, with much more stringent criteria and actual verification via testing that Organic does not have.

Recipe created by Jeremy and Deanie Fox Try them also with "Carta da Musica" Flatbread with Arugula and Truffled Pecorino. This recipe is from Ubuntu's Garden-Fresh Menu. Servings: Serves 4
In a stainless steel pot over high heat, combine chickpea flour, cornmeal, 7 cups of cold water, garlic, and salt. Whisk gently to prevent sticking on the bottom; over-whisking will cause the final product to "soufflé" and fall.
Once the mixture begins to thicken and bubble (after about 3 to 4 minutes), reduce heat to medium and switch to a rubber spatula. Add remaining ingredients except oil, stir to combine, and continue stirring to prevent sticking. When mixture pulls from the sides of the pot like a dough (after about 6 to 8 minutes), transfer it to a rimmed sheet pan lined with nonstick aluminum foil. Spread mixture out evenly, cover with a sheet of plastic wrap, and top with another sheet pan. Refrigerate for 4 hours until completely cold and set. Carefully remove mixture from pan by gently lifting the bottom layer of aluminum foil onto a cutting board. Remove plastic wrap, then cut into "fries" about 3 inches long. Heat oil in a large pot until it reaches 375° on a deep-fat thermometer. Toss fries lightly in additional cornmeal, and deep-fry them in small batches until crispy, about 3 minutes. Remove and set on paper towels. Sprinkle with kosher salt to taste and serve with romesco on the side. From the July 2009 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine

Justices hear challenge to drug-sniffing dogs
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Wednesday considered curbing police use of drug-sniffing dogs as lawyers argued that using a dog's hypersensitive nose outside a home to indicate the possibility of illegal substances inside amounts to an unconstitutional breach of privacy.
Justices also are considering making states prove in court how well-trained and effective those drug-sniffing dogs are before prosecutors can use evidence turned up by the dog — something police departments say could put a crimp in their use of canines in law enforcement. It "puts the dog on trial," said lawyer Gregory Garre, who represented the state of Florida in both cases.

Word Formation
The basic part of any word is the root; to it, you can add a prefix at the beginning and/or a suffix at the end to change the meaning. For example, in the word "unflattering," the root is simply "flatter," while the prefix "un-" makes the word negative, and the suffix "-ing" changes it from a verb into an adjective (specifically, a participle).
English itself does not use prefixes as heavily as it once did, but many English words come from Latin, which uses prefixes and suffixes (you can use the word affix to refer either to a prefix or a suffix) quite extensively. For example, the words "prefix," "suffix," and "affix" themselves are all formed from "fix" by the use of prefixes:
- "ad" (to) + "fix" (attached) = "affix"
- "pre" (before) + "fix" = "prefix"
- "sub" (under) + "fix" = "suffix"
Note that both the "-d" of "ad" and the "-b" of "sub" change the last letter.
Here are some of the most common Latin prefixes (for the meanings of the Latin roots, look up the words in a good dictionary):
- ab
- (away) abrupt, absent, absolve
- ad
- (to) adverb, advertisment, afflict
- in
- (not) incapable, indecisive, intolerable
- inter
- (between, among) intercept, interdependent, interprovincial
- intra
- (within) intramural, intrapersonal, intraprovincial
- pre
- (before) prefabricate, preface prefer
- post
- (after) postpone, postscript, postwar
- sub
- (under) submarine, subscription, suspect
- trans
- (across) transfer, transit, translate

Celebrities Attacked By Blood Sucking Bedbugs
Bedbugs can be a common occurrence for celebrities, who do a lot of world traveling for both work and leisure. One of the biggest misnomers is that bedbugs only live in poor, dirty hotels. The truth is they can be just as common in a five star hotel as a dilapidated transient housing unit.
For an informative infographic about the rising bedbug epidemic, click here.
Here are a few celebrities who have recently had run-ins with bedbugs:
Howard Stern
Howard Stern reported on his Sirius XM Radio show that he has been "scratching every minute," since his New York apartment and limousine had been infested with the tiny nuisances.
Renee Zellweger & Bradley Cooper
Last year, the National Enquirer reported that then couple Renee Zellweger and Bradley Cooper had to throw out a mattress crawling with bedbugs. Cooper had been doing a lot of traveling, staying in various hotels, and figured he picked them up and brought them home (which is very easy to do)… Maybe they were nesting in those dreadlocks he grew for the film "Hit and Run."
Lauren Hildebrandt
The pop singer, best known for her song "Boy Shorts," was attacked by blood-thirsty bedbugs while sleeping in four star New York City hotels last year. She said, "I couldn't sleep at night, because I kept thinking they were in my bed."
Maya Rudolph
A couple years back, Saturday Night Live star Maya Rudolph moved into their New York SoHo apartment only to find it filled with bedbugs. Rudolph, who had a baby at the time, began finding bedbug bites all over her and her family. The matter was resolved after pest control efforts… and a $450,000 lawsuit against the landlord.
To read more about landlord pest control violations ranking among the fastest growing consumer complaints, click here.
Aubrey Plaza
Parks and Recreation actress, Aubrey Plaza, was filming in Seattle, WA last month when she had an unpleasant encounter with these tiny pests. The actress reports getting bit by them at a local hotel, which she did not name, and says "it was a nightmare."
The last several years we have been inundated with bedbug horror stories like this. Both local and national news stations, radio stations, and newspapers ran with stories that we were under attack! During that time a lot of pest control companies experienced an unexpected boom.
There is plenty of fear out there surrounding bedbugs. With the growing accounts of bedbugs in the US, the fear is warranted. Bed bugs are very difficult to control and spread very fast if not kept in check.
Even celebrities must deal with bedbugs too!

Of Pixel Size and Focal Reducers
Before you purchase a CCD, weigh the options possible when focal reducers are added to the imaging system.
The scene played with the predictability of a well-rehearsed script. On a half dozen occasions visitors stopped by while I was testing two high-end digital cameras during the late 1990s. Each knew about the Kodak KAF-1600 and KAF-1000 CCDs in these cameras, but none had seen them firsthand. Handing each person the first camera, I would click the computers mouse to snap open the shutter and reveal the Chiclet-size KAF-1600. With almost 20 times the imaging area of chips in early cameras marketed to amateur astronomers, this CCD impressed everyone.
Nevertheless, when the shutter clicked open on the KAF-1000 camera, jaws dropped. "Now thats a CCD!" exclaimed one guest. Measuring 1 inch square, this chip offers only slightly less imaging area than a frame of 35-millimeter film. While everyone was predictably fascinated by this expensive bit of silicon real estate, blank stares followed my comment that, at a given resolution, I could capture more sky with the KAF-1600 despite its substantially smaller size.
How can this be? Even a quick glance reveals the KAF-1000 to be considerably larger 4.65 times, to be precise than the KAF-1600. The key to this paradox, however, was my qualifying statement that at a given resolution the KAF-1600 covers more sky.
Most of us photographers never think much about resolution. Todays emulsions have relatively fine grain, and we use the same film with telescopes big and small. As such, the larger the piece of film, the more sky will be captured up to the point where optical or mechanical considerations limit the field of view.
CCDs, however, are a different story. Pixels the individual, light-sensitive picture elements that make up the checkerboard array of a chips imaging area come in many sizes. The detectors found in todays popular cameras have square or slightly rectangular pixels ranging from about 7 to almost 30 microns (thousandths of a millimeter) across. The best results occur when a pixels size is matched to a telescopes resolution under a given set of observing conditions. For example, conventional wisdom suggests that the astronomical seeing conditions experienced by a typical backyard observer will produce excellent deep-sky images with pixels that cover about 2 arcseconds (2") of sky.
With this criterion established, the paradox is quickly resolved. If you adopt a given pixel scale such as 2" for deep-sky imaging, then you need only remember that the more pixels a chip has the more sky it will cover regardless of the chips physical size.
Consider the CCDs mentioned above. The KAF-1000 has 1 million 24-micron pixels arranged in an array measuring 1,024 pixels on a side. At 2" per pixel, the detector covers a field 2,048" (about 34') square. The KAF-1600, on the other hand, has 1.6 million 9-micron pixels assembled in a 1,552-by-1,032-pixel array. At the same scale, this chip covers a field measuring 3,104" by 2,064" (about 52' by 34'). The KAF-1600 has 60 percent more pixels than the KAF-1000 and should therefore cover 60 percent more sky.
There is a catch, however. Obtaining the same 2"-per-pixel scale for these detectors necessitates very different effective focal lengths. Indeed, the KAF-1000s larger pixels require an effective focal length of 2,475 mm (about 97 inches), while the smaller KAF-1600 pixels need only 928 mm (about 37 inches). The nomogram on the next page makes simple work of determining the relationships between pixel size, focal length, and a pixels image scale.

Listen up you sarcastic fuck. You have been nothing but an asshole to everybody. A couple people rate good and say it was'nt bad (which is a lie) and you fucking go and insult them. Go ahead make a sarcastic no fucks given reply. I don't fucking care.

That Psychicpebble Guy Sure Is a Fag
This was the best interpretation of my story anyone could have ever done.
Sheer brilliance. It also scared the shit out of me.
Rated 2 / 5 stars February 2, 2011
uh huh.....
there was something in the BG, or maybe that was an add. the animation was bad, sound was worse, and I have a feeling u don't give a sh!t about this review or any other because you would rather live in your deluded sad excuse for a life where any constructive criticism is ignored so u can feel good about yourself. But don't worry thats the problem of most bad animators on NG. also the looped music at the end is getting annoying now, probably should have made that play only once ... or not... whatever. right?

Jonathan Fisher re-joined London Irish on a two year deal after spending the last year playing for the Bedford Blues.
The 24 year-old made 19 appearances for the Exiles during his first spell with the Club, proving his versatility by playing in numerous positions.
He made his London Irish debut as a substitute against the Ospreys on November 4th 2007 in the Anglo Welsh Cup. The following season saw Jonathan make 10 appearances in the Premiership and European Challenge Cup competitions.
Prior to joining the London Irish Academy in 2005, the England Saxon played for Wellington College where his exceptional talent began to develop.
Jonathan represented England in the Under 19 World Championships in 2007 and then went on to secure a starting spot at blindside flanker for the England Under 20 side in all five games of the 2008 Six Nations Grand Slam campaign.
The athletic forward also played for England 7s at the 2008 Hong Kong Sevens and for England Saxons.
He was performing outstandingly well for the club until he picked up a forearm injury playing against Bath at Madejski Stadium in September 2012. He returned from injury in the return fixture against Bath in February and has made six appearances for the club this season.

Learn about the name Theodore.
With his mustache and spectacles, our 26th president, Theodore Roosevelt, was both rugged and refined — city boy meets country boy. He led the U.S. into a more active role in world politics, with his motto "Speak softly and carry a big stick." He was the inspiration behind the first teddy bear in 1903. We have a hunch that the names Theodore, Theo, and Teddy will soon be really big on baby name charts. Originally a Greek name, Theodore means "gift of God." Filmmaker Steven Spielberg has a son named Theo, and actresses Bryce Dallas Howard and Ali Larter have sons named Theodore.
