I worked at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – Cool industry to work for
Company discounts across all LG products
Great location in sunny San Diego
Cons – Hard to maintain morale when the company is always 2 steps behind the competition. Especially when they had the research supporting innovative launches.
Advice to Senior Management – Stop resting on past successes and get ahead of the curve.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I have been working at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – LG don't layoff people often
Cons – compensation is under the industry average
Advice to Senior Management – Follow the market trend and put more effort on the device quality instead of pushing it the market in short time.
I have been working at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – Health care benefits are free, so is dental plan.
Free phones.
Small company feel.
Free breakfast on Fridays
Location of office
Cons – R&D lab head of US is always nervous when upper management from Korea visits our site. It stresses us out that he is stressed.
Increased work load with minimal staff size
8am is the time you must be in the office.
Advice to Senior Management – Listen to your employees. Empower local employees and not rely on FSE as much. Need local employees to provide continuity.

I have been working at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – Free breakfast on every Friday. Need to be an early bird, though. Employee discount on a lot of LG products, such as TVs and refrigerators, although you might find a better deal at Amazon if you consider tax and shipping. Occasional outdoor BBQ and picnics. Depending on what you do, you get to play with many "not yet released" LG phones.
Cons – No cubicle walls (for engineers only). There used to be, but someone upstairs thought getting rid of cubicle walls would allow easier communication among engineers. Zero privacy. A lot of important issues are discussed in the smoking area outside the building while smoking and drinking coffee, so if you don't smoke nor drink coffee, you can forget about being *in* the circle. Also if you don't play golf (the management takes golf dead seriously), kindly kiss all your career advancement goodbye. They ask you to show up at 8AM (it used to be 9), but that doesn't mean you can go home at 5PM. Even if you spend all your hours at your desk, no jeans except on Fridays. If you don't speak Korean, make sure you are white; they'll worship you even if you do a lousy job. This place forces you to come up with ideas that can be used in phones, but quantity matters a lot more than quality of the ideas. People brought from Korea are treated exceptionally well (the company pays for their houses, cars, maid services, and does taxes for them), but local recruits are bottom of the food chain. All the projects are done in Korea, so you'll always be an extra that nobody recognizes.
Advice to Senior Management – Bring interesting projects. Reward fairly. Don't penalize non-smokers, non-coffee-drinkers, and non-golfers. Bring back cubicle walls or, better yet, bring everyone in the rooms to the same playing ground.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I have been working at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – - Good benefits
- HR really proactive in engaging employees
Cons – - Bad work/life balance (depending on which dept you worked)
- Unequal treatment of employees based on race (depending on which dept you worked)
Advice to Senior Management – Korean senior management (originating from Korea) groups needs to adjust to their American surroundings so as to avoid alienating other colleagues
Be more innovative in business processes
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I worked at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – The people who work for this company are very good it's just too bad that mid managers don't show appreciation to their team members.
Cons – Management does not reconize the employees efforts. HR does not help the team members they only do what makes them look good in the eyes of upper management. Too many programs that are tailored to make HR look good and not really help the employees. Upper management needs to listen to employees not just the supervisors/mid managers.
Advice to Senior Management – Work with team members not just supervisors. HR does not understand the needs of the employees. Take notice of what competition is doing and if you want to be #1 in America then listen to what your people are telling you not what Korea is tell you to do.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

I worked at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – Great Colleagues
Good Perks (ie starbucks etc)
You are trusted with a lot of responsibility
You learn a lot from your experiences
Cons – No work life balance
Communication is poor
Most communication is done in Korean which makes your job much more difficult
Too much work, very little play
Many employees are burned out
Advice to Senior Management – The communication channel needs reflect the local language, especially upstream.
Change the "work you to death" culture
Incorporate work life balance goals or programs
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

I have been working at LG Mobile Phones
Pros – If you are a full time regular employee the benefits are pretty decent: Health, Dental, Gym, Phone reimbursement. They do provide free breakfast every Friday.
Cons – Everyone is overworked and stressed. They do not hire enough people to handle the workload. LG tends to hire temps for about a year at a time and use them until they either quit, or their term is up. This results in employees that don't know what they're doing, and dissatisfied employees at that.
I work in a department where half the employees are temps, and we know full well we will not be hired on. The workload is huge, exhausting, and management fails miserably at rewarding us for our hard work. Instead, we are micromanaged. My supervisor makes me outline daily what I've done, and how long each task took. Everything we do is logged, to the point that we spend 60% of our time logging what we did instead of actually doing our jobs.
I used to stay late daily, but stopped because it wasn't worth it. I've had two panic attacks and several migraines since starting at LG, and gained ten pounds from stress eating/drinking. My supervisor has caused me and my coworker both to break down crying in meetings. My coworker has been known to stay til 9pm and work on weekends, and doesn't even always put it on her timecard because management makes her feel guilty for not getting her work done in eight hours. This coworker will also be discarded once her one year term is up.
Another coworker, also a temp, was invited for an interview to become permanent in the company. HR then called him the day before the interview and cancelled it, saying he was no longer qualified because they decided he needed a degree, which he didn't have, to do the job he was already doing.
Based on what I've heard around the office, the only people that are happy here are the Koreans, because it is a Korea based company. The rest of us are forced to be excluded from conversations during company meals because they are speaking in Korean, and can't read half the emails sent.
I also have a supervisor who has repeatedly asked who I am dating the entire six months that I have been with the company. Not quite harassment, but uncomfortable nonetheless.
Overall, I'm very unhappy at LG and have requested that my temp agency move me... unfortunately by the time I get home after work I'm too exhausted and stressed to even think about trying to find a new job.
Advice to Senior Management – Hire more employees and examine your managers--exactly how useful are they?
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

If we learned one thing from the Tanning Mom (aside from the obvious parenting don't), it's that orange is never a good look.Turn heads for all the right reasons and call on Born to Glow mobile spray tanning.Owner Jennifer Lee is one of only a handful of L.A. aestheticians wielding an Evolv Sidekick. The new airbrush device heats up tanning solution so it penetrates deeper and more evenly into the skin and dries faster (typically four hours). Akin to being buffeted by a hair dryer on the "cool" setting, the process is more pleasant than its goose bumps-inducing competitors.Simply choose your color (sun kissed, bronzed) and scent (coconut, floral, tea tree), then let Lee take care of the rest.The entire appointment — she comes to you, sets up, and sprays — takes just twenty minutes.Which may turn others green with envy.Born to Glow (646-275-6333 or borntoglowtanning.com).

Personally, I really enjoyed The Resort, which I read last year. All his books are enjoyable, I think, but some better than others. I like his writing style.

Something strange is happening at Tyler High. The laid-back principal has become unusually strict. The janitors no longer work nights because of what they hear. The students are frightened by what they see. And things are happening on school grounds that defy rational explanation. But there is an explanation. Its just nothing that anyone can begin to believeor hope to survive.

Patients undergoing surgery have severe sleep and sleep-wake rhythm disturbances resulting in increased morbidity. Actigraphy is a tool that can be used to quantify these disturbances. The aim of this manuscript was to present the literature where actigraphy has been used to measure sleep and sleep-wake rhythms in relation to surgery.
A systematic review was performed in 3 databases (Medline, Embase, and Psycinfo), including all literature until July 2012.
Thirty-two studies were included in the review. Actigraphy could demonstrate that total sleep time and sleep efficiency was reduced after surgery and number of awakenings was increased in patients undergoing major surgery. Disturbances were less severe in patients undergoing minor surgery. Actigraphy could be used to differentiate between delirious and non-delirious patients after major surgery. Actigraphy measurements could determine a differential effect of surgery based on the patient's age. The effect of pharmacological interventions (chronobiotics and hypnotics) in surgical patients could also be demonstrated by actigraphy.
Actigraphy can be used to measure sleep and sleep-wake rhythms in patients undergoing surgery.

The Massacre...A 'undoubtable classic album'...GTFOH! I like how the albums you mentioned are his mainstream releases, yet you name 2 songs off Power of the Dollar...Which shits all over BISD & The Massacre and you don't consider that a classic?
Fuck a random man, a random man who doesn't know shit about hip hop and only knows what is mainstream and current ain't gonna know shit. Flip the coin again and ask any REAL hip hop head and they are gonna name more 2pac songs everytime.
Money, you serious? Serious? Of course The Massacre is classic.
I DO consider Power Of The Dollar a classic too, but obviously i am not going to include it in a comparison with those Tupac albums, cuz it's more of a mixtape than an official album. But the classic songs contained on it rival any of the "classic" Pac songs, so that's why i mentioned them.

May 10, 2013 | By Media Release
Indianapolis Motor Speedway Statement About House Enrolled Act 1544
A statement from Mark D. Miles, chief executive officer of Hulman & Company, about House Enrolled Act 1544, which Gov. Mike Pence signed Friday, May 10:
"We're gratified to have the support of Governor Pence and the General Assembly. The success of this legislation reflects their broad understanding of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, its impact on the state's economy and our prospects for growth. The company is committed to doing everything possible to produce a return for taxpayers. We've been humbled by the overwhelming enthusiasm we've received from Hoosiers as we've gone through the legislative process."
House Enrolled Act 1544 creates an Indiana Motorsports Investment District that will capture growth in sales and income taxes at the commercial property that includes the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for future investment in the Speedway. In addition, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) will oversee a fund for motorsports businesses statewide to apply for loans to assist with economic development projects and facility improvements.

Poured from tap at the brewery. Started with an 1/8 inch head that fell into a thin layer. The body confirms what the head shows, very light body.
Nice caramel color that turns into golden color at the edges of the glass. Not hazy at all. Lacing shows the original head and 3 to 4 lacing rings down the glass.
Smell is imperceptible, no matter how close I get to the glass.
Taste is malty with a caramel sweetness that has a stale popcorn after taste. Slight hop flavor, nearly imperceptible. British ale yeast flavors are apparent.
Very light body which goes down easy.
Overall it's kind of like drinking an old Sierra Nevada, whose hop flavor is taking a background to the heave malts.

On-tap at the brewpub. Appeared clear amber in my pint glass. Unfortunately, that's as good as it got. The aroma was a mix of cheddar cheer and fake butter. That buttery diacetyl comes through in the flavor and really dominates more than it should in any decent English ale. There's a finishing peppery hop note, but that's not enough to redeem this mess of a beer. Avoid.

A. Lighter in color than their Pale Ale, it has good carbonation which leaves behind beautiful lacing on the glass.
S. I thought their Pale Ale was more hop forward than the IPA. The floral hop aroma is there, just not obvious.
T. Ed obviously isn't much of an IPA man. I would not want this beer named after me. It's dry and a little bitter but not what I expected.
M. This beer was a little chewy, and had carbonation that lasted to the very end.
D. Not offensive, but not memorable.

The beer is light orange with a thin white collar. The aroma is a balance of malt and hops. Hops are bit understated in the flavor. A decent beer, and pretty drinkable. That said, I could use some more hop character in both the nose and taste. A sturdy malt body. A more "balanced" example of the style. This was ok.

Picked this up on the way home, decided to buy a growler on my way through after realizing I didn't want to wait an hour to eat at their pub portion. Had a huge selection, but decided to give their IPA a shot.
It has an amber hazy color which is met with an off white copper head. Lacing is moderate, but it has an overall underwhelming appearance.
The nose is really floral, with points to less bittering hops... Not really understand what they are shooting for with an IPA. Not a hop bomb by any steach of the imagination. I do think if the style was selected more carefully it would have gotten better ratings for its style. An IPA it is not, a pale ale it is.
The taste is hop forward, but a sweet nutty malt backbone. Excellent profile, but again, for the style it is not correct. I do like this beer despite the average rating.
I did enjoy drinking this, and I think it is a great secession beer. I would order this with dinner over a wheat beer or anything domestic, BUT it would not replace anything like big sky, boulevard, or any other world class craft brew IPA. I really think people would rate this better if it was not classified as an IPA and maybe shown as a pale ale or other ale. Just my two cents.

Hop heads want their hops! Everyone is judging this beer to bigger IPA's. I felt this beer is a solid beer but it's a light IPA. I enjoyed it with a good hand tossed pizza.
A-Too thin for an IPA, clear
S-Need some more here, not much going on
T-A good mellow pale ale is more the taste here
M-Clean, light
O-This is a good beer. I rated this to the style but I still enjoyed the beer. It's more than a pale ale but not full on IPA. I doesn't overpower a meal which was why I ordered it. If you are going to FB for a meal, this is a good choice to complement your dish.

Pours a clear, amber/copper color. 1/5 inch head of white color. Decent retention and decent lacing. Smells of sweet hop and sweet malt. Fits the style of an IPA, but more closely resembles an American IPA. Mouth feel is smooth and crisp with an average carbonation level. There is also a high bitterness associated with this brew. Tastes of hops initially and in the finish with a good, sweet malt background.

Their website calls it a "true English IPA", although to me it seemed more like an American IPA.
A - Poured a gold and copper color with an off-white, two-finger head that left behind sticky lace.
S - It smelled grassy and hoppy with some malty presence. Also, a fruit aroma.
T - It tasted grassy and hoppy with a biscuity malt flavor. Overal, it had a nice bittersweet kick.
M - It was crisp, sharp and smooth. A medium-bodied beer.
D - This was very good, but it still tasted more like an American IPA.

Excellent beer in my opinion. I do think it is more like an APA rather than IPA though. As I live close to the brewery I drink the stuff regularly. If you are going to drink this, it is best on tap. I have gotten growlers to bring home and it is good, but not the same as fresh from the tap. I would recommend this beer to anybody. To be honest if anybody is in the Columbia MO area I would highly suggest a trip to Flat Branch. They have a great selection of beers, all of which are good. To add to that the brewery has a great menu and rather enjoyable atmosphere.

This column by Judy Foreman, published in the Boston Globe, is one of the best things I have ever read about cancer.

Essay: Time to give up the 'fighting' metaphor
By Judy Foreman, Globe Correspondent
A little over a year ago, just after Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with brain cancer, I wrote a column suggesting that we stop urging him to "Fight, Ted, fight!" and instead grant him the freedom to live as fully as possible with his cancer until the end, which, sadly, came earlier this week.
The fighting metaphor, especially when applied to cancer, drives me nuts. Cancer is not a war or a football game. It's an involuntary dance with a partner you didn't choose. The fighting metaphor is insidious because it not so subtly implies that if you fight, you can "win." And that if the cancer takes your life, if you "lose," it is to some extent your fault. It's not only patients and their loved ones who fall into this battlefield thinking, but doctors, too, who often see death as a failure. Their failure.
In truth, cancer doesn't care whether you fight or not, whether you win or not. It's simply there, just like all the other horrible, debilitating, scary, painful, life-wrecking chronic diseases that millions of Americans deal with every day. It's time to grow up about this whole fighting thing. Time to give up our so American, so naïve belief in our ability to triumph over adversity. We still believe a "good attitude" >improves survival while pessimism begets failure and death. That's not true, of course, as plenty of studies show. Optimism may feel better than pessimism, but optimists -- and Kennedy certainly seemed to be one -- die, too, and pessimists sometimes do better than their own dire predictions.
The challenge, it seems to me, is to do precisely what Ted Kennedy did. He sailed his boat. He spent time with his wife and kids. He found good doctors, and trusted them. And he kept doing the work he loved, right up to the end. That's not "fighting," in my mind. That's living.

Distance Education Program Opens New Doors For Off Campus Students
Radford University's Department of Information Technology offers a unique way for students to learn and grow. The Distance Education evening program gives the "ability for people to open new doors" according to ITEC Chairman and CSAT Associate Dean Dr. Carter.
The program offers live online classes through a two-way web-meeting tool for students who, for one reason or another, are unable to attend day-time campus classes on a regular basis. The program is aimed at Juniors and Seniors, who take a maximum workload of 2 classes a semester along with summer classes to acquire a degree in Computer Science with a double concentration in Software Engineering and Database.
These classes are available to students thanks to several dedicated members of the ITEC Department. Program Coordinator David Daugherty recruits, advises, and gets the information out to community colleges, employers, and anyone interested in furthering their education. He and six other Radford faculty members give the live evening classes online once per week and offer on-line office hours.
The program began in the Fall semester of 2008, and the first two groups have generated twenty graduates. "Students have been happy with what they've done" says Dr. Carter. One student completed his degree while in Iraq and three have gone on to the Masters of IT program at Virginia Tech.
Anyone interested in the program should contact Dr. Art Carter @ firstname.lastname@example.com , or David Daugherty @ email@example.com

Delta Air Lines on Friday announced plans to step up service to Paris and Amsterdam in 2013 from a number of US cities.
Like most other aviation calamities, the 583 people killed in 1977 when a KLM 747 struck a Pan Am 747 at Tenerife resulted not from a single error or failure, but from a chain of improbable errors and failures, together with a stroke or two of really bad luck.
The An-225 sets new world records while carrying Space Shuttle Buran, a USAir jet crashes at LaGuardia Airport in New York, a British Airways 747 is hijacked, and more…
KLM will begin receiving Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners in 2016 with a new order worth up to $11.4 billion.
In a near disaster, KLM Flight 867 loses all engines temporarily after flying through a cloud of volcanic ash, McDonnell Douglas and Boeing merge, the Boeing 787 makes its first flight, and more..
For just $5,000 a person, you and a loved one, best bud, or trusted traveling companion can fly around the world in 2012, stopping up to 10 times on the way, thanks to a deal offered by Groupon.
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines CEO Peter Hartman says the airline will not give up its brand to merge with Air France and indicates Alitalia may soon join Air France-KLM.
Dutch police on Sunday morning arrested a British terror suspect aboard a Uganda-bound passenger plane at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, prosecutors said.

After reading through these messages I am wondering if posting on this Pennsylvania forum is going to be worth the time and effort ??? Being in the Indiana zone 5 area I enjoy reading about others questions/answers, occasionally I may have some input to offer... What say you people of PA. ????? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Join in. I still think PA gardeners are in hibernation. I posted the message looking for gardeners in bucks county pa. Southeast corner of state. I still think you should learn as much as possible until you leave this life. |
I cant believe any one who enjoys gardening goes into any kind of hibernating.. Good golly there is so much to do during the idle days of winter, their certainly not idle for me, I wait for the trucks at our local gardening stores....LOL.... |
Since I am unable to go ice fishing nearby due to the warm up. I figured I would post. I first posted last Friday on Garden Web. I got a reply to check on Pennsylvania As you can see it is only you and I. A few days ago I was asked went is the best time to build raised beds. I replied now. I will start my cole crops indoors in a few days. As you say there is plenty to do. Get my seed room and small lean too greenhouse ready. Then the battle begins. That notorious groundhog and small rabbits, and squirrels. What have you been doing? |
I recently finished this cold frame, have 4 raised beds 4X12, this takes over much of one. I'm considering a portable tent for early crops I don't want to move. Going to place this on one complete bed, have 1 bed completely dedicated to rhubarb and they are doing beautifully. Made a small bed last fall just for garlic, when the garlic come out maybe I can use it for a quickie something. Last week I started trimming our wisteria, going to try to get some flowers this season. Have a new project going now, gonna put some metal shelving together and make a small frame to start seeds early, I am going to do this all outside, if it works good, if not then we will see. Heck I can spend an entire day sitting outside just thinking of what I wanna do.. |
kohlrabi Planted this last August, grew slowly and came through some very cold weather, I placed it in the cold frame and it's doing rather nicely even now. Wife had 2 hanging baskets remaining that we didnt toss, I hung them on the deck and forgot about them. Just before that last cold snap I saw they were sprouting new leaves, in the cold frame they went, otherwise just compost fodder. |
Did you use standard plastic sheeting or agricultural plastic? |
Neither, about 25 years ago I had the option of getting plastic bags (industrial). They are about 100 gallon bags of hi quality 4 or 6 ML. They've been sitting in my basement, outside shed, etc and never shown any signs of decomposition. So I am using these till have none left. I may get some plexiglass, 2X4 sheets, thinking of it. |
Instead of plexiglass, which is expenses. I used corrugated sheets of plastic. You can get it at home depot 2' x 12'. You use wood corrugated strips to fasten them to. This is what I used on my lean to greenhouse ten years ago. It hasn't discolored or anything. If you need it air tight, you can gasket it with 1/4" backer rod. and use hinges to open. When I brought them. They were 18 a sheet. You use tin snips to cut it. |
Lucifer Thanks that's a great idea, I'll need to look into that. I just may change things around a bit, like hinges on the outside, split the front and hinge it also. So it can swing open. After sitting on the deck and looking at the project with a couple of cold one's, who knows what ideas can crop up into ones head. Pic is before I started cold frame |

Hey-SW PA here.... I have those same plastic bags! LOL...I sewed them together and plan on putting them over a green house I made of PVC pipe. Like a hoop house, kinda. I used them last year on small tunnels where I cut a hoola hoop in half and put the plastic over that, weighted down by rocks. Worked like a charm! I have started onions, kohlrabi, lettuce...and of course Winter Sowing my flowers. I have lights and shelves in a basement closet but it's cold down there LOL. I was gonna try the same thing with shelving and plastic this year. I have one cold frame I use to overwinter a few hanging pots of perennials. Wasn't sure how that was gonna work but good so far..just looked yesterday and they are still green. I think I have more ideas than I do time, also! :0) |

hey all, montgomery county here. itching for the weather to get a little nicer to get out there and do some serious clean up. did spend about 5 hours a few friday's ago, when the weather was grand, but it hasn't been since. last year was a bust, i had a HA, so suffice it to say, i did no gardening whatsoever, and with that, came a tremendous amount of weeds, or all shapes and sizes. this year it is my intention to put in some raised beds, to get the drums prepped and set up for water retention and if i'm lucky, to get the 10x12 greenhouse sitting in my garage assembled, up and running. oh and in all that, i want to sneak in just a few chickens, but we'll see. a girl can dream, right? it's always been my experience that this forum isn't all that active and i'm finding all over GW, that many of the forums are quite slow of late. maryanne |
Maryanne You've got a lot of work to do...LOL |
I'm hibernating on the montgomery/ lehigh county line. I have done basically nothing for months. If I didn't work, I would go out and so some cleanup around 230 pm each day with the sun to keep me a little warmer. But I never get home til after dark so no such luck! |
I'll promise you, within 2 months you'll get more heat from that ol man sun....LOL |
Montgomery County here, too, the part near Delco. How soon do you start spreading mulch? I only have room for a few beds. Wish I had your kind of space. I already have daffodils blooming on the sunny, protected side of my house. |
Blair county here. i'm not holding my breath but next weeks temps are looking up. I guess there may be hope..:) |
Dee Our daffodil's are already up and coming Breath easy spring is on it's way |
We are supposed to get a big storm next week -- snow or rain or both is to be decided. Many times my dafs end up lying face down in the snow or mush. Sometimes they do come back up. I noticed some weeds spreading in one of my beds last week. The ground is not frozen, so I yanked a lot of them up. The weather is crazy any more. |
dedtired I'm in agreement with you as far as the weather Usually by now our daffodils are up, this year their just peeking through, my thoughts are when spring does arrive this year it will be like a spring we haven't seen for quite some time. Plants, trees, etc etc will just explode with growth Isnt that a lovely thought ? It is for me...... |

Centre county here although hoping to move to lycoming soon. Our home is going on the market and we have not bought anything else so I am in standstill right now. Hopefully the bulbs I planted will come up soon so I can see them before we have to move. It has been a long winter, hasn't it? |
I'm really trying to hang in there, but every morning I get up open the curtains & YUK! Cold, cold, cold, windy, & snowy! COME ON ALREADY! |
When you really think about it, isn't every winter a long one ? So far if you really want to be objective this winter has been the nicest I think I have ever seen in PA. Considering the balmy weather we had till this year, it was great., of course this is my opinion. Remember Nov of 2011 ? very cold and snowed all the time. It's all over now, spring is here....LOL |

Wow japus, you are a prolific gardener. I wish I could learn gardening from you.. I'm a newb folks. I got a fly-catching plant from Lowe's from a dollar :). I had to feed it an insect because it was wilting.. And I just got interested in air purifying houseplants. I got a peacelilly and English ivy.. -Chris |
Chris I'm as new as new can be to gardening, for years I planted in a patch 10 X 20. 4-5 years ago I decided maybe raised beds would work for me, that they did.... About 2 years ago I purchased some gardening books. As with many books I purchase I just thought having them on shelves would be enough.. That didn't work, so I started reading them and really learned much. I heard about compost never realizing the importance of it.. Well I came across a book I had called Square Foot Gardening.....After reading it I felt like I was born again in gardening, and that I was..a born again convert to Square Gardening. I knew it had to be true, to simple, pure, and easy for it not to be, then after reading more about it, and already having beds to work it, I got into gear.. Just about ready when weather breaks to start up.. |
Every year I feel like I'm new to gardening, someone tells me something i didn't know, someone points out a whole new area I never even heard about! I'd be bored otherwise. Frank from Luzerne county |
I have an organic gardening group that meets every second Monday of the month. it takes place at Churchville Nature Center in Churchville in Bucks county Look up the Churchville reservour. We talk about all type of of topics. We have speakers talking about compost, bees, raising worms, chickens. Every year we have seed, and plant swap. We usually have at least 15 people. last year we had a record 66 people. Membership is free. We ask people to donate a dollar or two to pay the fee for the space and to pay our speakers.. |
Chriswanderer, do not plant that English Ivy in your yard or you will be sentenced to a lifetime of keeping it under control. My yard has lots of it and it is the number one gardening chore that I have. If I did not keep cutting that stuff back, it would grow over the entire house and every inch of the yard. It was here when we bought the house. I dig clumps out every year and hope to eradicate it one day. Wow, today is gorgeous!! |

Yes. I read that the ivy is invasive. But ironically, it is an excellent air cleaner.. |

I would love to be on here more.I go for dialysis 3x a week,II need a kidney when Im home Im too tired to do anything.It actually breaks my heart I cant garden etc when I want .I miss it immensely.But I will come on more Ive gardened all my life.I live scentral Pa. |
bulldinkle Come on here when your able. Will be good to help keep your mind on the gardening that you love. Hopefully someday you'll be able to get your hands dirty again, all that mud, grime, and stuff.. best wishes to you |
Hi japus! I think I spoke to you in Lowes a couple of weeks ago! I've started tomatoes, green peppers and cukes under grow lights. My hubby started some things too. probably too soon, but we've got tons of seeds. I've already planted some seedlings into bigger pots. |
Holy heck! I looked at "my page" and I registered here in 2011! I don't remember doing that, but then I found it in my gardening bookmarks! |
- Posted by bulldinkie pa (My Page) on Tue, Mar 12, 13 at 22:32
thank you i will,hey when is a good time in s central pa to plant seed,its been so long .hubby wants to try it this year,I read 4-6weeksbefore last frost/?? |
Kathy4826 Yes I remember our chat, hope your doing well. Lowes is starting to fill up with planting items, spring goodies I'll say.. I started cool weather crops here, probably much to early, however I just wanted to practice seeding. My first batch was the best so far. Have you checked on square foot gardening yet ? A remarkable project in my opinion, shall be looking for you at Lowes. Bulldinkie. |
Japus, I bought the square foot gardening book last year. I want to follow it to the letter, but I've had to compromise. I'm not the only gardener in the house! We each have our own ideas! |
Chester County here. Hey I am new on this forum,lately moved from Virginia Beach. Please don't think I'm crazy, but I am wondering if anyone over here in the SE corner of PA has tried sweet olive shrubs (osmanthus frangrans). I think Longwood grows them so maybe they are ok. (We are zone 7 here, at least on my property.) I really, really miss Zone 8 and the South, so admittedly I am trying to recapture a little of what I had in Virginia. If you don't know them, they are absolutely gorgeous and fragrant. Second question, can anyone comment on fast they grow? Ok, ok, I know you will tell me to scram and go onto the Mid-Atlantic forum. I tried that but it is way too depressing with everyone talking about zone 8 plants! |
Hi Vforge Keep trying here, maybe another forum would help. I bet if you contacted Longwood Gardens they would help you.. Good Luck in any event Jimmy |
Cumberland County. Staggering after losing the meadow behind us to commercial development, but trying to recover :P |

Hi Vforge. I am in Chester county too! We just bought the property last year. I checked there are several members of this family that are hardy here. Check Dave's garden. They seem to have the same sweet fragrance. Some seem to be hardy up to zone 6. |
Have our seeds starting indoors. A few things planted outside. Do mostly container gardening. Recently joined gardenweb. Love the site and learning a lot... |
Hi Gandj I enjoy container garden also, always have a bunch laying around and they seem to do better than my normal garden. This season I'm entering the Square Foot program. I've been running ragged trying to locate some ingredients, however now am ready to lock & load.. |
Japus where did you get vermiculite?? I am starting a sq ft too. Didn't buy any ingredients yet though but I was browsing today at the garden centers... It would have been like $80 for just the vermiculite. |
Japus, good luck with the square foot garden. Years and years ago when we had the space for a big garden, we had neither the time or the desire. Now, we only have room for containers. Our dogs use the tiny bit of yard for, well what dogs do... But on the plus side, when we sit outside and enjoy the weather, we're sitting right in the middle of our "garden"! |
kbard There is a local Feed & Supply store in our town, family run and very helpful. When I asked about vermiculite they told me three 4 cu ft bags were available. They were the fine blend, I asked if they could order coarse. They looked through their catalogs and told me it was available, I ordered 3 bags of coarse, also took the 3 bags of fine. The coarse cost me $25.00 per bag, the fine was $18.00 each. They were looking to get rid of the fine stuff, I'll use it somewhere. $25.00 a bag for the coarse is a good deal. I'd suggest you try your local garden center's, (not box stores) ask them if they can order from catalogs for you. $80.00 for a bag is to much in my opinion. Do this while their not busy, they may not want to take the time while the cash register is buzzin....during the spring rush. 4 cubic ft bags may be ordered from Home Supply in Marion Center PA |

SouthCentral Pa. here. I'm also new to this site. Lots of great info. I really jumped the gun and planted my window boxes last week and now theres a freeze warning tonight. What a dope. |
Certainly not a dope Barbara. Just think how nice they would have been if nature took it's normal course. They may survive this anyway. Good Luck |
1st complete SFG bed, planted a few cool weather crops on Wed. Hopefully they were cold weather items. They had to go into the ground, What a pleasure working in the mix, I plan on 3 more beds.. |
I planted my cool weather crops about 2 weeks ago and there doing good but it is about time to warm up hopefully. |

York County here...trying my hand at gardening, but could really use a personal gardening for dummies trainer...I cannot seem to get anything right...planted corn a couple of weeks ago...was doing great until the unexpected cold spell last week now the corn looks horrible...covered it but still...the leaves have a purplish streak and some look shredded, does anyone know if this is the weather or is something else the culprit? |
Your certainly not alone flopped, almost everyone to 1 degree or other has had problems with this years weather. My yard hasnt had a freeze in the 40 years we have lived here. This year some of the leaves on my kiwi plants have turned black, I'm blaming the 28 deg's last week. Nothing to do but move on.. |
I didn't know there was a Pennsylvania forum! I just seen it wile checking out someone's trade pg. I still have all my veg & flower seedling's im the lil greenhouse. That freeze freaked me out. It killed my wisteria. I'll plant out latter in the week. :) |
This is months later than the last post, but, I don't post here because I am in SW Pa. About 30 miles from West Virginia, and about 60 miles from Pittsburgh. Most posts on here seem to be from folks closer to the coast. There are lots of posts with no replies, so why post if there aren't replies for months? |
Hi Poaky If everyone felt that way there would be no posts at all. I post here when ever I think of it, and have something to rave or rant about. I dont think it matters where you're at in PA. I'm not to far from Pittsburgh and check here every so often. This time of the year I kinda think gardening isn't in the forefront of everyone's thoughts.. Have Merry Christmas Poaky |

I'm in Chester County, PA....and gardening is always on my mind. We've started out with a lot of cold weather so far this year, and lots of snow too. Japus I like your photos above....very nice. |
Hi Sizannie you picture looks so wintry, I suppose starting today it is, although doesn't feel like it.. I took a walk out to my compost piles today, one needs to be turned, however there is so much mud I just can't work in it. I sorta gave up on this forum, apparently not many are interested, to bad it has such great potential. Great pics Suzannie |
Japus, and others, you are right. This thread has been disappointing in the past though. |
Hi Poaky Don't quite give up yet. The time's coming soon when PA. gardeners will awake and start asking questions. I have enjoyed the local banter here, however I'm intently busy on the SFG forums since I have converted all of my beds to that process. |
grew up in Beaver County... I'm wondering if there will be any seed swaps in the area. I'm trying to connect my Aunt with some of the swaps and gardening community. |

Hello all! I'm new here...to the web page, forum AND Pennsylvania...south Bedford County about 15 miles from the Maryland line. As you can tell I am from Texas--born and raised. My husband and two of our boys moved here this past Sept (2013) and I am wanting desperately to garden this year. (Keep in mind we are renting but the landlord is going to till up the area for a garden.) Here's my concerns. I know that deer are more "abundant" here than where I was in Texas. They were there but I didn't have a problem with them and my vegetable garden partly due to my dogs. Well, here, I have just one dog and he's inside more than out (Chihuahua) but he loves to chase them. I have already planted tulips and daffodils (I think) in spots next to the house. Little did I realize that deer, so I hear, LOVE tulips. UGH!! But I have found "homemade deer repellent" recipe on this site and will be using it! Unfortunately in Texas, I had NO luck with tulips. Well, they came up but never bloomed. My sister-in-law who only lived 1500 yards from me did have some luck with them. Anyways, I need tips/advice on things that I can do for my garden and flowers. I am going to ask my pastor, who had a wonderful garden last year for tips but I think his biggest help was a wooden fence around his garden and it was close to the house. Not sure where the last garden here was and I believe that's where the landlord is thinking of tilling. Any help is greatly appreciated as in I hope to can a lot of my vegetables for winter to help save money on groceries. Thanks!! |
Hi Texas native and a warm welcome. Your dogs aren't going to repel Pennsylvania deer unless they are outside all the time and able to chase. My son visits us with his N.C. Dingo, dog goes crazy when deer are outside and it doesn't even concern the deer outside. Even dog's scent does nothing. Deer here come from the woods, and in my opinion are not disturbed by human scent. I think while in town they do not consider human scent a threat. I've sat at night in total darkness with lights aimed at deer in our yard, I live in town, so an abundance of human scent is available, they do not bolt till they see me move. I have a small garden that after gathering up small trees in the woods, erected a small fence around, only 3 feet high with lots of obstructions inside, deer have never jumped in. My belief is they detect danger and stay out.. According to our local Penn State Ag. rep, he's of the mind deer may be deterred by objects, and odors, however in time understand there is no threat and will ignore it. This photo was before I had my raised beds & cold frame in place. Good Luck |

Welcome TXnative. I am a Pa native who was a Texasi transplant for 20 years and am back in PA now. You will not recognize the deer here in PA The first deer I saw in TX I thought was a fawn. So you need to fence the garden in PA. The good news is that the soil is 10 x's as fertile and the weather much easier on plants than it was in Houston. You did not say where you lived in TX. the easiest is 2 fences 4 ft high a foot apart. you can use inexpensive netting fences. The deer also do not like tomato cages turned upsidedown. Good luck |
Nothing great to add, but, I will tell ya all what it's like here in Uniontown, pa 15401. It's beyond cold. We are experiencing cold like we haven't seen for 30 yrs. Like -10F and -5F. Also we are possibly going to see -12F. That is zone 5 hardiness for plants. We have been nearly zone 7 hardiness before this arctic crap! Mostly zone 6. I have some trees that were rated zone 7 previously. I hope they are zone 5-6 hardy. |
Yeah, me again. Japus, the 3 window covered beds above from Jan. 2013. Were you able to grow veggies or something, and harvest with the cover on? |
Poaky Last season was only experimental with my newly fashioned raised beds. These beds were going for about 6 years with soil that I thought was good, last year I converted them all to SFG, (Square Foot Gardens)\ Their success with the M.M. growing medium was positive way, beyond my greatest expectations.. This year, I am hoping to have everything planed correctly. The so called cold frame, I'm going to use early, then as squares open up I'll replant with summer crop's, then fall. I have carrots still inside that I tried last season, with this weather everything is frozen solid, hopefully all the bad bugs will be gone. Picture is 1 of my kohlrabi's, their sure a tasty item. |
Just to let you know that you are not alone: We had the -12 here the other morning. Wife asked if there were still carrots in the garden, so I used a bar to break thru 4 " solid frozen soil and underneath were still great carrots. I have 3 raised beds 4x18 feet by 14 inches deep. I converted to raised beds about 8 years ago with a modification of MM. |
Okay, what is MM growing medium? If these veggies are presently growing in this bitter cold, how are you keeping the temps up? In other words heating? I had actually dreamed of a greenhouse where I could grow veggies in winter. This greenhouse was 8 feet below grade, and a hoophouse, triple glazed and heated. I know I better win the lottery to build and maintain this greenhouse. Oh, it had some palm trees and fountains, along with a pond with goldfish. Yeah, keep dreamin huh? |
Photo's I posted were from last season, nothing growing in my garden now, if there was I'd never even know it. My compost material is piling up waiting for a break in the temp's. MM Mel's Mix is what is used in Square Foot Gardening 1/3rd vermiculite 1/3rd peat moss 1/3rd compost After my beds were completed the task of making my own compost is an enjoyable one, however can be a little work to do it correctly. |

Rick Ross Makes First Public Appearance Since Drive-By Shooting, Remains Silent
Rick Ross steps out in Los Angeles, California after last week's assassination attempt.
Rick Ross has remained decidedly silent about his brush with death after he crashed his Rolls Royce into a building following a drive-by shooting.
Now, for the first time since the incident, Ricky Rozay stepped out in Los Angeles, California, though he remained silent as a TMZ cameraman followed him and asked questions about if he had any information on who he thinks may have tried to take his life.
Though he seemingly ignored the pap's questions, he smiled while biting a cigar when asked to comment on 50 Cent alleging that the whole situation was "staged."
While Ross has been silent on the matter, several of his associates have confirmed that he's in good spirits including Wale, Gunplay, Meek Mill and Pusha T. "Freeway" Ricky Ross spoke with HipHopDX last week and said that he wasn't surprised that the rapper was put in such a scenario.

The pelvic floor is formed by several soft tissues that fill the outlet of the pelvis. The most important of these is a strong sheet of muscles, slung like a hammock from the walls of the pelvis. Through these muscles pass the urethra, the vagina and the anal canal. There are 2 layers to the pelvic floor muscles, the superficial layer and the deep layer.
Image 1-15 shows the superficial layer composed of five muscles. These may be injured during childbirth.
Image 1-16 shows the deep layer composed of three pairs of muscles, collectively known as the levator ani muscles. They support the pelvic organs of the rectum, uterus and bladder.
The pelvic floor muscles support the weight of the intestines, your uterus and unborn baby. They control urination, bowel movements and affect sensations during sexual intercourse. These muscles soften and weaken to a degree during pregnancy, due to the progesterone hormone, helping this area stretch for birth. However, when extra pressure is put onto the pelvic floor during pregnancy (say when you cough, laugh or sneeze), urine may be passed involuntarily because of a more relaxed pelvic floor.
During labour and birth the pelvic floor muscles guide the baby through the vagina to help them to be born. This natural process can further weaken the pelvic floor, although women who have had a Caesarean can also experience a weakened pelvic floor due to carrying the pregnancy. This is why pelvic floor exercises are important for all women throughout their lives, especially during and after pregnancy. You may wish to read pelvic floor exercises.

Straight Easy Lacing
This is a simplified variation of
Straight Bar Lacing
where one end runs straight from bottom to top while the other end steps through the eyelets.
Diagram for 8 pairs of eyelets
Lacing Technique:
• Begin straight across on the outside (grey section) and in through the bottom eyelets.
• The left (blue) end runs all the way up the inside and out through the top left eyelet.
• The right (yellow) end runs straight up on the inside and out through the next higher eyelet, then straight across on the outside and in through the adjacent eyelet on the other side. Repeat until the end reaches the top right eyelet.
Even no. of eyelet pairs = neat look
Odd no. of eyelet pairs = messy look
End lengths shift
28% longer ends (on average)
Straight Easy Lacing only works correctly on shoes with
even numbers
of eyelet pairs (eg. 8 pairs = 16 eyelets). This is because the lace must cross the shoe an even number of times so that the ends will meet and can be tied together. On shoes with an
odd number
of eyelet pairs (eg. 7 pairs = 14 eyelets), the lace ends finish diagonally opposite each other at the top of the shoe.
See below
for some workarounds for shoes with odd numbers of eyelet pairs.
Sports / Military Advice:
Like other straight lacing methods, Straight Easy Lacing has an additional benefit for sporting or military use: The upper horizontal sections of shoelace can be quickly cut through with a knife or scissors in order to more easily remove a boot from a broken, sprained or otherwise injured ankle or foot.
Note that most military forces have regulations for just about everything, so I'd recommend that military personnel check before they adopt this, or any other, possible non-regulation lacing method!

Odd Workarounds
As mentioned above
, Straight Easy Lacing only works correctly on shoes with
even numbers
of eyelet pairs. Here's several common workarounds for shoes with
odd numbers
of eyelet pairs, using sample diagrams with seven pairs of eyelets.
Ends Tucked In
Firstly, you can accept the fact that the lace ends don't meet and simply tuck them into the shoe.
For a tighter fit, you could also knot each lace end so that they don't pull through the eyelets, then tuck them in. However, those knots can feel uncomfortable.
Skip One Eyelet Pair
Another solution is to simply not use either the top or the bottom pair of eyelets. This avoids the odd limitation by using only an even number of the available eyelet pairs.
It's also possible to skip a pair of eyelets somewhere in the middle, which breaks the lacing into two sections.
One Diagonal
Use a single diagonal pass somewhere in the lacing. At the top, it's less noticeable due to the bows and shoelace ends. At the bottom, you can even run the diagonal around the inside of the tongue, making it invisible at the expense of some slight discomfort. Near the middle of the lacing, a diagonal may be positioned to line up with and run through a tongue centering loop (if the shoe has one).
One Crossover
Instead of trying to hide a single diagonal, this alternative makes a feature out of a single crossover. This crossover can be placed at either the top or bottom of the lacing, but unlike the above "One Diagonal" variation, it cannot be placed in the middle of the lacing.
Across and Back
The second from bottom straight section runs across right-to-left (on top), then left-to-right (underneath), passing under itself on the right side. The underlying section is fairly well hidden by the straight section on top.
This is the preferred method for dress shoes with three pairs of eyelets, with the lacing running across and back under the middle pair of eyelets.
Twice Through Top Eyelet
The end that runs straight up the left side (blue end) and the end that snakes left and right through all the remaining eyelets (yellow end)
emerge through the top left eyelet. One of those ends then runs straight across and out through the top right eyelet.

Durham's The Cookery is hosting a fundraising dinner later this month for Pet-Tich-Eye, a collaboration between Triangle musicians, artists and photographers that will produce a 10-song record and a 24-page art book.
Raleigh chef Ashley Christensen, a James Beard finalist for best chef in the southeast, has organized the April 21 event. Among those cooking will be Christensen, who owns Poole's Diner, Chuck's and Beasley's Chicken + Honey in Raleigh, one of Matt Kelly's chefs at Mateo in Durham, Billy Cotter of Toast in Durham, Mike Hacker of the Pie Pushers food truck, Gray Brooks of Pizzeria Toro in Durham, Cheetie Kumar of the soon-to-open Garland in Raleigh, Sam Ratto of Videri Chocolate in Raleigh. (The event is being organized by Heather Cook of Shindigs. Cook is an event planner who helps plan weddings to fundraisers.)
UPDATED: Tickets were originally available via Pet-Tich-Eye's kickstarter page, which has since closed. The remaining tickets, which costs $85, will be for sale Wednesday (4/3) morning at goo.gl/XTcgo . (The link will not work until Wednesday morning when the page is no longer private.)
The Pet-Tich-Eye project has musicians work in groups of three to create original songs, artists create album art and photographers document the recording process. Ten community organizations, including Farmer Foodshare and the Frankie Lemmon school, will receive $1 from each single and record sold. The record will be released April 20.
To download the record, go to petticheye.com. To purchase the vinyl record and the art book, those will be available at Schoolkids Records in Raleigh, Bull City Records in Durham, All Day Records in Carrboro and CD Alley in Chapel Hill.

So when we saw these pics of a special edition matte black Mazda MX-5 - styled by a Parisian design house to celebrate the model's 20th birthday - we got excited.
Then we snapped eyes on the crazy sword-wielding ladies stood next to it. And then we got scared.

Itunes reverts back to old folder location
I moved my itunes folder from my hard drive to an external drive. But every time I turn my Imac on the file path shows that it is reading from my MAC HD user/*name*/music folder again. What'S the deal with that???

Did you change the location to the external drive in iTunes > Preferences > Advanced?

I have my media on my NAS. I had a similar situation long ago. I ended up setting up my system to recognize the NAS locally upon boot up. Problem solved. Before that, I would wait for the NAS to show up then click on the icon to "wake it up" and that also solved the problem back when. One other thing - When I moved my media to my NAS I had a couple of options to consider to finish the process - either "add to library" the NAS media directories and in iTunes, delete references to the local drive listings or do an add to library AFTER I removed within iTunes the iTunes db files etc. (starting empty so to speak). I find that starting fresh, though it takes time to populate was the best bet as there was no chance for duplicate listings in iTunes. In short, I moved the files to NAS. Set up iTunes pref to not move files added, then deleted (or you can rename) the contents of iTunes to force it to generate new db files etc, then added the external media files to iTunes. |
