No reviews have been left for this bank yet. Be the first to review.
The Texas Ratio is an indicator of how much capital a bank has available compared to the total value of loans considered at risk. As of March 31, 2014 RSNB Bank had $2.1 million in non-current loans and owned real-estate with $38.21 million in equity and loan loss allowances on hand to cover it. This gives RSNB Bank a Texas Ratio of 5.48% which is excellent. Any bank with a Texas Ratio near or greater than 100% is considered at risk.
The Texas Ratio for RSNB Bank experienced no significant changes from 4.89% as of March 31, 2013 to 5.48% as of March 31, 2014, resulting in a negative change of 12.03%. This indicates that the balance sheet and financial strength for RSNB Bank has had no significant changes in recent periods.
In the past year, RSNB Bank has increased its total deposits by $13.78 million, resulting in 4.37% growth for the year. A strong track record of growth is an indicator of consumer confidence and the bank's ability to strengthen its balance sheet. The growth RSNB Bank has shown is excellent.
Both FDIC and NCUA consider capitalization levels of banks and credit unions to be of high importance. Higher capitalization allows for a greater buffer when cover loans that may fail in the future. RSNB Bank has $367.35 million in assets with $38.21 million in equity, resulting in a capitalization level of 10.40%, which is above average.

Most widely held works by Robert Imrie
The knowledge business the commodification of urban and housing research by Chris Allen Imrie ( )
7 editions published in 2010 in English and held by 967 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This book provides a critique of the knowledge business, and describes and evaluates its different manifestations in, and impacts on, the university sector. Its focus is the social sciences and, in particular, housing and urban studies. Drawing on a wide range of experiences, both in the UK and elsewhere, it illustrates the changing management of the academy, and the development, by university managers, of instruments or techniques of control to ensure that academics are disciplined in ways that are commensurate with achieving commercial goals. The individual chapters highlight the different ways in which the academy is being put to work for commercial gain, and they evaluate how far the public service ethos of the universities is coming apart in a context in which what is to be serviced is increasingly a private clientele defined by their 'ability to pay'. "The Knowledge Business" examines the contradictions and tensions associated with these processes, highlighting the implications for the academic labour process, and the future of the academy

Architectural Design and Regulation by Robert Imrie ( Book )
10 editions published in 2011 in English and held by 208 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Regulations and associated governance practices, relating to the design of the built environment are an integral part of the design process and warrant serious attention by scholars of urban design. The regulations that condition the building process are neither ephemeral nor insignificant yet they have barely been the subject of academic investigation. Governments are placing increasing emphasis on design codes, building regulations, and planning statements to guide the conduct of architects, and to fashion much more of the design process but there has been little research on what architects feel and think about this, and how it is affecting what they do and their daily patterns of work. The book offers insights into a number of important relationships: the impact of regulations on architects and their designs; the use of regulations to create or sustain shared bodies of knowledge and common understanding between different actors (i.e. designers, contractors, regulators); and, the social issues of how risk is shared (between designers and the state) for creating and ascertaining that the minimum (design) conditions are satisfied. The book develops two lines argument: 1. Regulation is core to architects' practices, and, in turn, such practices define, in part, the scope and possibilities of regulation. If one accepts this proposition, it seems incumbent on research to centre the understanding of architects' practices within the broadcloth of the rules and regulations that, in turn, are part of the broader contexts within which architecture unfolds. 2. While conceptions of design may preclude explicit incorporation of regulations and building standards, such standards do influence, in variable ways, aesthetic and/or design outcomes. Regulations ought to be conceived of as much more than technical instruments, or part of a non-creative process somehow removed from architects' practices"--

Because the Indians are placing heavy emphasis on dynamic pricing this season, I have begun following ticket prices for this season's Tribe games. This is what I have learned so far.
To begin with, let me describe the basics of dynamic pricing and the online ticket marketplace as I understand them. The Indians have promised all ticket buyers, including those buying season tickets, that the ticket prices being charged for any given seats at the start of the season will be the lowest prices the team itself will charge throughout the rest of the season for those seats for the game or games for which the tickets are purchased. The average price of $29 per seat per game we paid for our four season tickets in Rows A and B of Section 131 is equal to or less than the lowest price tickets will ever be sold for by the team itself this season in those same rows of that same section. (For obvious reasons, the team cannot assure any ticket buyer that tickets, once they are bought, will not be resold by the buyer later for a lower price.)
The Indians have also said that ticket prices for individual games will be based on market demand for tickets for those games, with the prices for premium games being set at higher levels initially and with prices increasing if and as demand increases for those premium games.
As another part of its pricing program, the team has printed on each of our tickets the face value of those tickets at the start of the season. For example, the face value for our ticket is $40.66 for the home opener and $20.33 for the noon game against the Padres on April 9.
Finally, the Indians have also made it easy for us to utilize the StubHub site if we wish to resell any of our tickets. In the past, one of the worst aspects of being a season ticketholder was being left with tickets we could not use.
Our first experience in disposing of our tickets through StubHub showed how dynamic pricing and the resale market are working. We knew that we could not make use of the tickets for the Saturday, April 5 game against the Twins. So we went to the StubHub site to list and sell the tickets. The site gave us immediate information as to how much other tickets in our section were listed for. Taking our cue from this information, on March 24 we listed and sold the two seats in Row A for $47 each and the two seats in Row B for $42 each. StubHub charged a commission of $13.66 and a MLB transfer fee of $3 on the two seats we sold for $47 each and a commission of $12.16 plus the $3 fee for the seats we sold in Row B. As of this morning (March 30), the best seats available in Section 131 on the team's website for this game are in Row L and cost $45.
Tickets to some premium games are a hot commodity right now. Earlier today I looked at the prices being charged on the team's website and the prices being asked on StubHub for the Saturday, June 21 night game against Detroit. This game is Omar Vizquel jersey night (to the first 12,500 people). There are also fireworks and Hall of Fame inductions. Dynamic pricing for this game has already had an effect. The only seats the Indians have left in Section 131 are in Row DD (five rows from the back) and cost $74.50 each. Resellers using StubHub are asking $93.30 each for seats in Row C in Section 131 for this same game.
My own rough guess is that the Indians will derive about three times as much revenue from sales of tickets to this game as the team would have had it used the static-pricing model it used before. Moreover, StubHub returns about 50% of its revenues to MLB, so some of the StubHub money for this game will also come back to the Indians.
My own thoughts about this new approach to pricing are these. First, as a fan I want the Indians to have enough money to field a competitive team, so the fact that it is finding ways to derive more revenue from ticket sales at any particular level of attendance does not bother me. Second, as a season ticket buyer I now understand that the tickets I bought for the June 21 game and other premium games have become somewhat valuable, so I can recover part of the cost of my season tickets if I choose to sell the tickets to these games, which makes it easier to justify buying season tickets. Third, I understand that the Indians still charge one of the lowest average ticket prices in baseball, so I do not believe that dynamic pricing is having much, if any, negative effect on relative attendance figures since most of the teams are now using dynamic pricing and attendance in other cities continues to outpace attendance here. Finally, I don't think that this pricing system is unfair to the average fan since there are many games which fans can attend (particularly in April or May) for which decent seats are available at a very low price on either the team's website or on StubHub.
Incidentally, if you still want to go to the home opener StubHub is listing tickets in Section 131, Row W. They will cost you $99.89 each.

The Value of Trade Agreements in the Presence of Political Pressures
AbstractAn argument often heard in favor of trade agreements is that they provide a way for a government to credibly distance itself from the domestic special interest groups who lobby for protection; the idea is that, by committing to free trade, a government may be able to foreclse political pressures at home. In this paper we develop a dynamic, small-country model in which factors are sector-specific in the short run but mobile across sectors in the long run, and show that the rents derived from the political process may not compensate the government for the welfare distortions caused by protection.

Haddock catches are up in southwestern Nova Scotia as the North Atlantic fish returns to its glory days.
After a near-collapse of haddock stocks in the mid-1990s, the protection of the Georges Bank, less intensive fishing efforts and favourable environmental conditions have led to a rebound.
"Haddock is becoming the poster child of that management success," Dalhousie University marine biology professor Boris Worm said in an interview Wednesday.
Haddock stocks have increased every year since the 1994 emergency closure of Georges Banks fishing grounds, an elevated area of the sea floor separating the Gulf of Maine from the Atlantic Ocean.
Worm said there was an exceptionally large recruitment in 2010 — basically a haddock baby boom.
"Haddock are unusual. They can produce these enormous monster year-classes."
The 2010 class is estimated to have roughly half a billion haddock.
"If we let those grow up to just two pounds, that would be half a million tonnes of fish. That is twice the size of the northern cod stock before it collapsed."
The result for fishermen, he said, is that they can fill their boats quickly.
"Fishermen are coming back from the Georges Bank saying they've never caught so much in a two-day trip."
Ray Belliveau, president of Charlesville Fisheries Ltd. in Lower East Pubnico, said the 2010 year-class is the largest he has seen in his more than 30 years in the business.
"This year-class should carry us for three or four years. They're just getting to the size now that we're starting to catch them."
Belliveau said he expects next year to be even better because the haddock will be bigger.
"There are more fish right now, but the only drawback is they're smaller. They need another year or two to grow. I expect next year will be better than this year."
Fisheries and Oceans Canada found that the number of adult haddock on the eastern Georges Bank has been increasing since the early 2000s.
"It's currently estimated to be at the highest level … since 1970," spokesman Luke Gaulton said in an email.
Adult biomass — in simple terms, fish that are large enough to be caught — was roughly 183,600 tonnes at the beginning of 2013. That is projected to increase more than one-third this year to reach about 245,000 tonnes.
This comes after the adult biomass reached a near-historical low of 10,300 tonnes in 1993.
Gaulton said favourable environmental conditions, less intensive fishing and reduced capture of small fish have allowed the adult population to grow.
Fisheries and Oceans has responded to the rebound in fish stocks by increasing quota this year to 16,470 tonnes from 6,448 tonnes in 2013.
"The quota has gone up about 21/2 times from last year on haddock," Belliveau said.
More than a million pounds of haddock have unloaded at Pubnico's wharf this week alone, he said.
"Obviously that affects price and drives it down, but in two or three days the market dries up again and the price will jump back up."

I've often said if I could go back to any time in my life I would go back to college. The years I spent in college were a wonderful time of learning, discovery, and amazing experiences. I enjoyed my classes and felt like they prepared me for many things I've done in my professional career. I participated in lots of extracurricular activities, clubs, intramurals, and even athletics. However, I am constantly reminded that one of my greatest gifts from my college years was the gift I received through some amazing friendships.

Awamaki Review
If you've made it to the Sacred Valley, you've likely seen your share of woven garments. But it's worth swinging by this fair-trade shop just down the road from the Plaza de Armas on the way to the ruins. All goods are produced as part of the Awamaki weaving project, which supports a cooperative of Quechua women from the Patacancha Valley. The organization also offers a variety of cultural tours, including homestays and weaving courses, all of which you can find out about at the shop.

Mets show support for Queens firehouse
Unit lost more men than any other on Sept. 11, 2001
NEW YORK -- In the 10 years that have passed since the horrific events of Sept. 11, 2001, Americans, even New Yorkers, have begun to move on. As the days have turned into weeks, months and years, the flood of visitors that came to Maspeth's Squad 288, Haz Mat 1 unit in the wake of 9/11 has tailed off considerably. But while others might have forgotten the sacrifices made by the firehouse that lost more men -- 19 -- than any other, the New York Mets have not.
On Friday, former Mets John Olerud, Edgardo Alfonzo, Robin Ventura, Steve Trachsel and Matt Franco visited the Queens firehouse, along with current Mets relievers Bobby Parnell and Tim Byrdak, in order to show their support to those who continue to risk their lives for the safety of others. It was part of multiple visits the Mets made to firehouses in the city.
"People come less and less, and fewer people come out, but as far as the New York Mets are concerned, they've come every year," firefighter and Mets fan Kevin Kubler said. "It's good to know that there are some guys who haven't forgotten what we do every day. It's not just 9/11. Every day, these guys, when they put on their coat and they go to work, they face the same dangers.
The visiting players chatted up firefighters and their families, toured fire trucks and the station, and helped lay flowers on a memorial around the corner. For Parnell, the son of a firefighter who grew up hanging out at the firehouse in Salisbury, N.C., the experience was especially poignant.
"Being able to hang out with the guys that experienced [9/11], to know what they went through as a tight-knit community in the fire department, it's very dear to my heart," Parnell said. "Any time I get a chance to come out here and hang out with the guys, I really enjoy doing it."
The event was also a reunion of sorts for Trachsel, Alfonzo and Ventura, who played together on the 2001 team, as well as Olerud and Franco. Olerud played for the Mets from 1997-1999 before signing with the Seattle Mariners, while Franco was a Met from 1996-2000 before being demoted to Triple-A Norfolk for the 2001 season.
After 9/11, the Mets' former home, Shea Stadium, was used as a staging area for rescuers. There, members of the team helped pack supply boxes with food, water and medical supplies while also greeting relief workers who were sleeping in shelters set up in the parking lot.
For Ventura, the experience was one he will always remember, and one that binds him to his former teammates.
"Before games, it was hard. You're talking to people that had lost a loved one, and to be able to go from that to trying to go play a game, it was hard," Ventura said. "I think you're bonded in a way, because there was so much going on as far as community service stuff that guys were going all the time, either [going] to a firehouse or people were coming to the stadium. Guys bonded in a way that you normally wouldn't with a regular season."

Timothy: Thanks for the info.
I think my grandparents emigrated around 1905-1910? (guesstimate)
My grandmother had a strong accent, so I assume she was a young adult coming over.
I assumed they were from southern Ireland (Sligo), but that is all heresay.
Currently, I am waiting for the Ontario gov't. to provide death and marriage certificates to find out where they are from. (I'm seeking Irish citizenship)
If there is a connection to Londonderry I will let you know!

Jim Clancy's claim to fame
Jim Clancy may have been the Scott Linebrink of the '91 team but 20 years ago Saturday night he was the pitcher of record in the first World Series game won by the Atlanta Braves.
He did so by retiring one batter — Minnesota hurler Rick Aguilera, who lined to deep center to end the top of the 12th. Aguilera, the Twins' seventh pitcher, gave up a single to Justice in between fly ball outs by Gant and Brian Hunter in the bottom half of the inning. We all remember the Lemmer's game-winning single but tend to forget it was made possible by a steal of second by the Braves right fielder, who was 8-for-16 in SB attempts during the regular season.
If Justice hadn't been successful the game would've continued into the 13th and the Bravos would've been dependent on Clancy, who had a 5.71 ERA and 1.442 WHIP after being acquired from Houston, to hold serve. Not a pretty thought.

I do, however, question their review process. After I ordered my card I noticed there was an error in the line spacing. When the cards arrived I noticed that no email had been sent about the error. So if there are errors in spelling etc ob your cards make sure you catch them before you order. Itherwise I am very happy with the way

Remember Me
Which is better, to bite into an ear of sweet corn that went straight from the garden into the boiling water, or to slice and devour a sun-ripened red tomato?
Ah, summertime, when the garden is in full swing and the eating is good.
This week we're eating our first homegrown Silver Queen corn, though a Rising Sun friend had mature corn over a month ago! He managed to plant in just the right early window and got corn up despite the cool spring weather.
We got our first Early Girl tomato July 3, and are absolutely inundated with round red – and a few orange – globes. There's nothing like a plateful of ripe tomatoes with cottage cheese – or slices of an Orange Jubilee with chicken, swiss or mozzarella cheese, salad dressing and homegrown oregano on sandwich bread.
I started more varieties of tomatoes this year than usual, though Early Girls are my husband's favorite. The Tigerellas are a smaller, slightly striped variety, which cracked consistently while we were getting frequent rains. Now that the rains are more spaced out, they're staying whole – and they do have a good flavor. I'm still weighing in on my favorites, but the Big Boy and Abe
Lincoln are way ahead of the Super Tasty and Supersteak – though the latter has decent flavor in its huge tomatoes should you want to grow them for bragging rights. They're great for jumbo hamburgers, but a little large for eating out of hand.
Sungold and my own saved-seed red cherry tomatoes are probably what I eat most, simply because they're so productive. And a cherry tomato is easy to pop into my mouth as a quick snack!
With all the rains, the green beans have produced like gangbusters, finally slowing for this last picking. A second planting is up and almost ready to bloom, but this first planting suddenly has loads of buds and blooms coming so may not get pulled up after all. And for once, the bean beetles have not overloaded the older plants.
We did lift onions and shallots this week, and I pondered how appropriate is that verb as I gently tugged the round and elongated globes from the ground. They'll lay out under the carport roof for about a month to cure, though some will be sauteed and eaten much sooner. I've taken to growing Utah Spanish and Red Long of Tropea onions, the latter growing into tall red ovals. I start both those and the Ambition red shallots from seed in early February.
In the emptied area we planted two varieties of broccoli seedlings, Windsor and Nutribud, plus Snow Crown cauliflower and savoy cabbage. And lettuce seeds. The brassica were started indoors July 8 and should have time to mature, depending, always, on weather.
As usual, by the time I got done I was grubby and slick with sweat. That's part of summertime, too, I guess, and as sensual in its way as all the gustatory sensations!
Soon I'll plant beet, spinach, kale, collard and carrot seeds for fall and overwintering crops, as well as garlic cloves for next summer's harvest. This year's garlic, on trays in the garage, has dried about long enough to be stored for winter. Maybe I'll get some braided this year!
Meanwhile, the spring broccoli continues to send out side shoots, the most recent of which got blanched for broccoli, bacon, and raisin salad. We got our first large head of Gypsy broccoli June 29 from seeds planted in late March, and our first cabbage head a few days earlier from the same planting date.
This year and last I got a cabbage mix from Pineseed which provides a variety of red and green cabbages, including early and larger, later maturing plants. One of the heads that's ready now is absolutely HUGE, though it doesn't look quite as big wearing the cowboy hat my daughter suggested. I'd guess it weighs about 10 lb., though.
Sunflowers line three sides of our big garden, and the chatter of goldfinches is constant now.
The seeds have no chance to mature for winter birdseed! But the birds and the flowers are a delight, and I take some of the heavy stalks indoors to enjoy. I make sure I grow the kind that
DO have pollen so they also are good for honeybees and other pollinators.
Other flower varieties make a walk through the backyard a scentsational trip. The oriental lilies are done for the year, but the moonflowers have started with their overwhelming fragrance, the tea roses provide a lovely scent from time to time, and the slightly-dusty scented phlox and sweet pink resurrection lilies are blooming as well.
Black-eyed Susan, gaillardia and purple coneflowers vibrate with color, and salvia, balloon flower and dragonhead provide shades of blue and purple. And at the very back of the yard, the apiary is abuzz as honeybees wing their way in and out of their hives with loads of nectar and pollen.
Ah, summertime. A sensual experience in so many ways.Chandra L. Mattingly is a staff reporter for The Journal-Press and The Dearborn County Register. In her spare time she cultivates a large garden, and tends bees, chickens and horses.
Is it too late to plant a garden?
Not at all! While it might be harder to get cool-weather crops such as lettuce, spinach and beets to germinate, there are other vegetables that will pop right out of the ground and get to work.
And even the cool-temperature crops may germinate if covered with a shade cloth and kept moist, or started inside under lights for transplanting.
So, what should you plant first? Sweet corn. I usually am able to get a late crop of sweet corn, even full-season varieties such as Silver Queen, if I plant it by July 15. You can soak the seeds overnight and water them in well to get a quicker start.
Bush green beans planted now also have enough time to mature, as do cucumbers. Even summer squash are likely to produce some edibles, though it's probably too late for winter squash and watermelon.
Carrots will mature in what's left of the summer but can be tricky to get up, especially in clay soils. Try planting the seeds in broad rows, water, then cover the area with a wide board. Check the area daily, keeping it moist, and remove the board as soon as seeds germinate. Keep watering regularly until the little carrots are well established.
Or you can try covering your carrot seeds with a mixture of sand and soil to keep the ground from crusting. Again, keep the area watered.
The same treatment works with beets, but only if the soil is cool enough. Beet seeds won't germinate well at higher temperatures. Yet if you can get them up, they make a great late summer/fall crop.
Peas planted now may produce come fall, and you can choose standard or snap peas. I've always had better luck with the latter, especially as fall crops. Plan on some sort of support; even so-called non-staking varieties do better with light fence or string to keep the delicate vines off the ground.
Even potatoes can still be planted and will produce taters, though perhaps not large ones. The difficulty with late potatoes is the hungry insects; they never seem to go after the early potatoes as voraciously. There are organic products that work on potato beetles, with limitations.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a bacterium which is effective with early larval stages. Beauveria bassiana is effective against all larval and adult stages, but doesn't work well in temperatures above 80 degrees F. Both are organisms which occur naturally.
Cabbage and broccoli seeds also can be planted directly in the garden for fall crops, but should be watched for pests and nibbling bunnies. In our garden, which essentially has been organic for decades, wasps and other predators carry off the cabbage worms for the first half of the summer to feed their young. Once those young are raised, we begin seeing cabbage worms on the brassica.
At that point, you can squash the caterpillars, pick them off and feed them to your chickens, or spray Bt or rotenone. If you use rotenone or other pesticides, be sure to dust or spray early in the morning or in the late evening, when honeybees and other pollinators are less active.
Speaking of honeybees, my home hives are thriving, as frequent rains are keeping the white yard clover blooming.
We took honey off in late June, a sweaty job I wrote about in advance in an earlier blog, and ended up with about 360 lb. of honey from four overwintered beehives (up to six hives at the moment with divisions.)
While I did the heavy, clothes-drenching work of removing honey supers from the hives, volunteers at Jim Orem's Spring Sling in Milan did most of work involved in extracting: decapping the combs, loading and running the extractor, unloading the extractor, and cleaning up cappings, etc.
So here's thanks to Jim Orem, Brianna Johnson, Allison and Matt Knue, Chris and Darrell Hosmer, and Donnie Flannery and his son Seth Flannery. Others there when we were included Randy Salatin and daughters Mary and Emma Salatin, Ted Cooley, Virginia Tidman, Jim Rector and Bert Fischesser.Chandra L. Mattingly is a staff reporter for The Journal-Press and The Dearborn County Register. In her spare time she cultivates a large garden, and tends bees, chickens and horses.
Beelieve it or not, the sweetest part of beekeeping for most backyard beekeepers isn't the honey harvest.
It's seeing that their honeybees have survived another winter – especially when the winter was like this last one!
But folks who are interested in beekeeping as well as beginning beekeepers can get a good idea of what honey harvesting is like come Saturday, June 28. Jim Orem, a member of the Southeastern Indiana Beekeepers Association, is offering his Milan area honey house and his help that day for his Spring Sling.
Newbees and SIBA members who have honey to extract may use his facilities that day, but must call or email him to set up a time: 812-571-0118 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Even better, prospective beekeepers may come and discuss beekeeping and learn how to extract honey by helping. Even folks who just are interested in honeybees and honey are welcome to show up and learn through experience how it's done.
The process will begin at 10 a.m. with honey off my hives, but folks should call Jim ahead of time for directions and the best time to show up.
Once again, this strain of honeybees I care for has produced a heck of a lot of honey. In 2013, all three hives I had wintered over, and I took off about 300 lb. of honey that June. This last winter, thanks to divisions, I had four hives, all of which wintered well. At this point, it looks as if they've produced just as much and probably more than last spring.
So, for those wondering about how one "robs" the bees, here's the process. Two days ahead of time, Thursday, I'll go through the hives, set the honey supers to be taken above the hives' inner covers, and place a bee escape in the inner cover hole. By the following day most if not all the bees should have gone down into the brood boxes of the hive, where they have additional honey stored as well as pollen, and raise their young.
Because I'm not a weight lifter and value my back, I'll remove about half the frames from each full super, keeping them covered, and carry that much at a time to a shady spot in the yard. When I have all the honey supers off the hives and in the shade, I'll use a shop vacuum in reverse to blow any remaining honeybees off the honeycombs.
Then I'll put the bee-less honeycombs in a clean super, always keeping the boxes covered. When I have a full box, I'll load it into the back of our pickup truck.
When all the honey is on the truck, I'll drive a few blocks away, then open the lids to release any honeybees that might have slipped back inside the supers. At that point, those bees are glad to get out of the hot boxes and simply fly away, heading home.
After a couple of stops to repeat the process, if needed, I'll park the truck in a closed warehouse to await our Saturday morning trip to Jim's. There, we'll use a heated de-capping knife to remove the caps from the honeycombs, which are built within wooden frames. Then the frames will be put in an extractor and whirled to sling out the honey – hence the event's name – and drained into food-grade buckets.
(And this year I'll remember the lids for the honey containers so I don't have to send the spouse back home to get them!)
Finally, all the empty supers will be returned to the hives for the bees to clean out, or, if a nectar flow continues, to refill.Read more... Add new comment
Is anything better than a ripe strawberry, warm from the sun?
Ours started ripening in bunches just before Memorial Day weekend and already my fingers bear red stains. Yum!
We're still getting asparagus, too, and enjoying it steamed, roasted and in cream sauce. I've started letting the skinnier stalks go, and the plants are slowing down, partly due to a lack of rain here in Rising Sun. But my first planting of lettuce is ready to pick, as is the volunteer kale, and the raspberries and gooseberries won't be far behind the strawberries.
Anyone who loves fresh fruit and has a little space should pop a few berry plants in the ground; they're so easy and so rewarding! Both strawberries and black raspberries will multiply, giving you a larger patch each year if you let them. And if you like asparagus, a good bed will produce for years and years.
Otherwise, our vegetable garden remains a work in progress. The most recent plantings were herbs, parsley, oregano, sage and sweet basil; tonight I hope to plant sweet marjoram and the other basils: lemon, lime and Spicy Globe. We love those in various dishes!
A few days earlier I transplanted more of the volunteer sunflowers and we planted Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes. Shell beans are next, and a second planting of sweet corn. The green beans and carrots are up and the tomatoes and sweet bell pepper plants look great – all they need is a little rain. Several of the tomatoes have small fruits starting.
Our last rain here was the 21st, with some different but beautiful lightning displays – long horizontal extensions, as well as vertical bolts coming down in fan-like sprays. But the rain here amounted to only a tenth, whereas some folks got a couple inches.
We still need to set out the eggplants I started from seed and get my gourds and cucumbers in the ground, hopefully to be followed by a midweek rain.
And I want to resurrect my perennial herb garden where I will plant more sage, thyme, rue, lemon thyme, French tarragon, southernwood, costmary, lavender – and so much more! Only the comfrey and lemon balm remain of the herbs that grew there some years back.
There's always more to do!
Meanwhile, the honeybee hives are going gangbusters! In the past three weeks, my four hives went from having two supers mostly full of honey to over eight supers full! Some of the honey isn't ready yet, but as heavy as the supers are, it's not far off.
Bees make honey by gathering flower nectar, which mixes with enzymes as they carry it home in their stomachs. As the bees put the liquid into honeycomb cells, it's about 80 percent water. The bees inside the hive circulate air by fanning their wings, and the moisture level gradually drops until the honey is about 14 to 18 percent water. At that point, the bees cap the full cells and the honey can be harvested.
But the beekeeper's job also includes ensuring the bees have enough honey to feed them through the summer, when nectar sources may be scarce, and through the winter. Once the clover bloom finishes, usually in late June or by July, the bees may not have another major nectar source until the fall flowers bloom, the asters and goldenrod and boneset. Much depends on weather, with summer drought always a possibility, as is chilly, rainy weather in the fall.
And of course honeybees located near field crops, especially corn, likely will be exposed to neonicitinoid herbicides, which have been implicated in colony collapse disorder. Throw in two varieties of mites, and it's understandable why honeybees are struggling.
All in all, I feel blessed that my hives are doing so well, the four original ones, four divisions from those, and one hive originating from a captured swarm. All I have to do is keep up with adding more supers for them to fill with honey – with some help, bless him, from the spouse.
My woodland wildflowers are about done blooming but the domestic flowers are coming into their own. Pink blossoms dangle from the bleeding heart, the centaurea's bachelor-button-like flowers are a lovely deep blue, and buds are forming on the false indigo.
Between weeding and planting the vegetable garden, I have to remind myself to stop and enjoy the beauty around me. Fortunately, the oriole is back in the huge sycamore by the big garden and entertains me with his singing and flashes of orange as I pick asparagus each evening.
Tomato and bell pepper plants stand upright where I planted them one evening last week when rain was forecast. I got seeds in the ground for sweet corn, carrots and green beans as well, but the rain amounted to only a tenth or two of an inch. More rain Saturday dampened the ground, but we could use a few days' worth of water. I think the total rainfall last week was less than an inch for us.
Of course I also planted flower seeds – you have to balance one with the other, I think. I love the pink variations of cosmos but scattered the orange and yellow flowering cosmos seeds as well. A few volunteer castor beans are up, and at the far end of the garden the yellow sweet clover I planted for the honeybees is up thickly enough to shade out any weeds.
That won't bloom till next year, but in a few weeks I'll plant buckwheat as a combination cover crop/honeybee feeder, timing it to bloom after the white clover scattered in residential yards is done. And I still have to get my sweet potatoes, dry beans and eggplant planted.
Meanwhile I worked the four honeybee hives, dividing three of the four that showed signs of swarming: active queen cells. When the hives get crowded, the bees build special cells called queen cups. After the queen lays a fertile egg in the cells, the bees feed the resulting larva oodles of royal jelly and it matures into a queen.
About the time that queen is ready to hatch from a cell that looks much like a peanut shell, most of the workers from the hive fly off with the old queen to found a new hive. They'll hang in a bush or a tree for a day or two while scouts find a new hive location, then lift off and move into their new home. While they're hanging around, so to speak, local beekeepers will come collect them – go to www.indianahoney.org if you happen to find such a swarm and call the nearest beekeeper listed on the map.
At the original hive, the newly-hatched queen makes a mating flight when she's a week or so old, then starts laying eggs, tended by the remaining bees and those that hatch after the swarm leaves.
In dividing my hives, I'm attempting to ward off a swarm by moving the existing queen cells and a lot of the young and unhatched bees to a new location.
White clover is blooming in lawns and fields now, and soon will provide the main spring nectar flow for most honeybee hives. If we beekeepers – and the bees – are lucky, there also will be a locust tree flower nectar flow. Though the locust flowers don't last as long, their nectar makes a very fragrant light-colored honey – if it doesn't rain much during the blooming period.
Many other flowers and crops provide both nectar and pollen to feed honeybees and other pollinating insects through the summer. In return, these insects pollinate the flowers and crops, ensuring they'll set fruit and grow seeds. Gardeners and farmers can help this process by limiting any pesticide applications to very early morning and late evening, and using pesticides only when absolutely necessary. Soapy water spray and hand picking can control a number of insect pests.
And please check your labels and don't use neonicotinoids, which have been strongly implicated in the losses of honeybee colonies to Colony Collapse Disorder. See http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/press-releases/study-strengthens-link-between-neonicotinoids-and-collapse-of-honey-bee-colonies/
