Low Down
Based on the memoir by Amy-Jo Albany, LOW DOWN is a compassionate, tender look at the complex relationship between Amy-Jo (Elle Fanning) and her father Joe (John Hawkes), a man torn between his musical ambition, his devotion to his teenage daughter, and his suffocating heroin addiction. Set against a sensuously textured 1970s Hollywood, the film beautifully evokes a colorful, seedy world of struggling musicians, artists, and vagabonds, in which Joe and Amy-Jo strive to live the lives they want against seemingly insurmountable odds.
"Low Down is a knockout, a candid picture of much of jazz, and one more step for a master actor." - The New Republic.
"Pitch-perfect performances and an immersive evocation of period mark out experimental film veteran Jeff Preiss's feature debut." - Daily Telegraph.
"John Hawkes and Elle Fanning are outstanding. Possibly the most harrowing tale of drug addiction since REQUIEM FOR A DREAM." - JoBlo's Movie Emporium.

Come join us for the Fort Wayne Ski Club's 65th Annual Ski Film! Established in 1936, thousands of area flatlanders have joined FWSC to be with others who share the exhilaration of sliding down snowy hills, strapped in funny boots secured to long boards. There will be Door Prizes, Lift Tickets, and other Freebies at these showings. Find out more about Fort Wayne Ski Club at FWSC.org.
Warren Miller's 2014 film, No Turning Back, pays homage to the 65 years of mountain culture and adventure filmmaking that has lead WME to every end of the winter world. We're taking a legacy that dates back to before skis had edges and mountains had condos and we're running with it to the steepest peaks around the globe and back to the Mom and Pop hills that define skiing and riding. Since he began creating films in 1949, Warren Miller has known that as skiers and riders, there's no need to look back, we have to continuously drive to keep our edge and chase the snow. This year, we prove that not much has changed when it comes to why it is these athletes tilt and turn down mountains and pray for storms. Sheer delight. Welcome this winter season and remember there's No Turning Back.
Dear White People
Winner of the 2014 Sundance Film Festival's Special Jury Award for Breakthrough Talent, Dear White People is a sly, provocative satire of race relations in the age of Obama. Writer/director Justin Simien follows a group of African American students as they navigate campus life and racial politics at a predominantly white college in a sharp and funny feature film debut that earned him a spot on Variety's annual "10 Directors to Watch."
"The complicated narratives don't distract from what this film does best: make you laugh about the things that make you furious."- Los Angeles Times.
"It's a slyly provocative achievement and a serious calling card for its writer-director, Justin Simien."- Chicago Tribune.
"As smart and fearless a debut as I have seen from an American filmmaker in quite some time: knowing but not snarky, self-aware but not solipsistic, open to influence and confident in its own originality."- New York Times.
108 min., Rated R.
Pride - Last Shows!
It's the summer of 1984, Margaret Thatcher is in power and the National Union of Mineworkers is on strike, prompting a London-based group of gay and lesbian activists to raise money to support the strikers' families. Initially rebuffed by the Union, the group identifies a tiny mining village in Wales and sets off to make their donation in person. As the strike drags on, the two groups discover that standing together makes for the strongest union of all.
"The kind of hearty, blunt-force drama with softened edges that leaves audiences applauding and teary-eyed." - New York Times.
"'Pride' is an unapologetic crowd-pleaser of a movie, but it has some potent points to make, and the reality of what happened has a power of its own." - Los Angeles Times.
"'Pride' leaves the viewer in the satisfied throes of all of those emotions: happy and sad, buoyed and chastened, and wondering, finally, what the world might look like if solidarity really could be forever." - Washington Post.

For a period of 23 hours, a young Ecuadorian girl named Angelica was shown the Kingdoms of Heaven and Hell, and the Return of Christ. She witnessed Jesus weeping as He overlooked multitudes of souls lost forever, a world that has rejected Him, a Church that is mostly unprepared for Him, a people that have stopped witnessing to the lost, and an entertainment industry that even lures children to satan. She witnessed many of our esteemed cultural icons suffering in the Pit; singers, entertainers, and even a pope. Angelica was also shown how the Kingdom of Heaven is all wonderfully prepared and ready, an unimaginable glorious place, where no evil exists. Though Jesus is ONLY coming back for a Holy People, and many of God's children will NOT be ready on that day, and will be left behind in a world that will fall apart. -aka.23 Horas Muertra This video is sure to be controversial, it has started a firestorm of discussions and argume

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have been an active parent since 2000, with three graduates who were very prepared for private HS, a and two more who still attend. High standards accompanied with compassionate, supportive, well-educated teachers make this school stand out. They are ever updating methods and enhancing the technology. A strict code of behavior that emphasizes respect of others and kindness. Visit and you will encounter children who are polite, helpful, conscientious, and happy. The teachers know each child's name, regardless of grade level. By far, the element that makes this school an excellent choice is the superior leadership we have with a fantastic principal and pastor who work well as a team, and are very dedicated to the mission of Catholic education: forming children of faith. Daily Mass, prayer throughout the day, monthly service opportunities, band, Bellarmine Speech League, sports, art, history day, ...the list goes on...an outstanding school in every way!
I am a 1960 Graduate of St Raphael's School, looking for more information on our graduating class.
I have a kindergarten student - we are very happy with the program! It's a very friendly and the parents are very involved with the success of the school!
Great school! Excellent teachers who take pride in their students and give of themselves completely. Gold standard all the way. Sports programs are fantastic with huge parent involvement. Music, art and computers are enjoyed by not only the students, but the parents as well. The Christmas musical production expresses musical talents as well as acting skills. Art is displayed year round throughout the school and computer skills are visable when the children use home computers.
Excellent programs; great student/teacher ratio; tremendous parent involvement; good music and sports and extracurriculars
My kids have scored consistently in the 90's on the Iowa tests. This is an independent test and shows just how good St. Raphael school is. It is one of the best private schools in the St. Louis area!

Episode 70 Part 2 Seamless floor pan installation, 1965--70 Mustang, Autorestomod
We finish the installation of the National Parts Depot Mustang floor pan in our weekend
project 1968 Mustang
hardtop! In this episode we only replace the sections needed. Gary Jackson
shows how to cut, weld, and grind a pan for a seamless repair that will
give a factory look without using the full pan. This method will also be
easier due to less welding and grinding.

Patch Panels-Installation and Hand Forming Automotive Panels from howtoASAP
How to ASAP brings you another DVD on "Installing and Hand Forming Patch

best way to solve rust or damage problems on your project. There are times
when patch panels are a perfectly acceptable repair--if you know how to
install them correctly. Nationally recognized car builder, Craig Hopkins,
will take you through the step by step installation of a lower quarter
patch panel and bonus segments on hand forming patches using tools you
probably have in your garage. You will learn methods and tips which will
produce professional results with your "do-it-yourself" project.

of finesse, but not as much as a headliner installation requires (see our
other video on that subject).

Moody Traffic Lights: How To Make Something Beautiful From Nothing
[REWIND:You've Never Seen Dubai like this – How to Use Weather To Your Advantage]
I like details. I am in the habit of finding a beautiful image in the seemingly mundane, and it's usually through good light. When I get asked for a tip on how to take better photos, and that's often, I almost universally tell the budding photog to, "look for good light." To some this may sound sort of far off and Taoist, or, crap, really. However, I mean what I say, and I say what I mean. As any photographer worth his L lens knows, light affects a photo pretty much more than anything else. I see it all the time with photos that catch my eye; the contrast is magnificent; the highlights so interesting; yes the saturation and deatil as good as you'd get from a Leonardo, and it's all so well done that you don't care that the subject is actually a tv remote. Details. German photographer Lucas Zimmerman has gone quite the literal route with his project focusing on traffic lights, and was kind enough to share with me his gear, method, and inspiration. It's all rather brilliant in its simplicity.
They were all shot with the 17-40l from Canon. I tried the 24-105 as well but i forgot to turn on the IS so the images were not usable
Lucas, in his early 20s, admits he didn't have a concept for this project. He simply was driving on a foggy night and saw it. He said seeing it was easier than capturing it and he had to experiment with many different shutter speeds between 5 and 30 seconds. He noticed, even while using the capable Canon 5D Mark II, that in that light, a too short exposure was giving too much noise, and a too long exposure washed out the colours. It also posed an increased threat of cars. Lucas goes on to mention that he often had to wait minutes between shots of the same set-up because each car had a profound effect on the exposure and color due to the fog.
I've had personal experience with this shooting in England where fog is often the order of the day. Walking our dogs, I've often tried to capture a scene and the fog just changes the game. Thankfully, Lucas has shared his precise set-up for the most popular of this series. It along with the gear list, below.
Gear List:
Canon EOS 5D Mark II
Canon 17- 40 f/4 USM L
Camera Settings for Shot:
Focal Length – 24mm
Shutter Speed – 20 secs
Aperture – f/5.6
ISO/Film – 800
This project is gaining Lucas some well earned attention. He works with his partner, Maria le Quang at Luma Visual Creations and publish all photos together, though it was Lucas who brought us these images. He had his start in photography at 16, when a girlfriend of his was into it and also, his grandfather had been a longtime photographer. He, like me, knew he didn't like to be in front of the lens, so he would stick behind it. Together, Lucas and Maria are having their first exhibition in Nürnburg in the spring. No doubt, Lucas is creating history Germany can be proud of ;-)

ALEX Dew raced to an impressive fifth podium of the season as he finished second in the BMW Compact Cup at Rockingham Speedway.
After qualifying third fastest, the driver from Bampton, near Witney, gained a place off the line.
He set the fastest lap in pursuit of victory, but was eventually edged out by less than two-tenths of a second.
The LED Lenser-backed racer completed a good weekend by finishing ninth in the second race after a difficult opening lap.
He said: "The last couple of rounds have been difficult for us, but it's a great feeling to finally be back on the podium and pushing for the wins."
Dew, who is fourth in the championship, is back in action at Silverstone on August 22.

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — A potentially explosive donation left at a suburban Detroit charity drop box prompted the evacuation of several area businesses.
Police say three hand grenades were found Monday by an employee at a Salvation Army store in Macomb County's Shelby Township.
Police say two of the grenades appeared to be inert; the third may have been live. One is believed to be from World War I and the others from the World War II era.
No injuries were reported.
The devices apparently were dropped off over the weekend along with other items. It wasn't known who put them in the drop box, but police say they don't believe harm was meant.
The grenades were removed and destroyed by a Michigan State Police bomb squad.

It's ladies night at The Hard Rock. That's right ? this weekend some of the hottest female talents from Philly, and beyond, will hit the stage at the Hard Rock Cafe Philadelphia for Black Girls Rock Hard.
Presented by Moshay Laren and Lyn Brown Music Group, this rock-tastic music showcase features a dope lineup of artists, including�Nafesa, Jae, Tracey Preston, Chartel, Suzann Christine, Black Alley and BriaMarie. Each of these ladies have been rocking mics and shows all over the place, and now, they are coming together for an unstoppable night of R&B, Rock, soul and hip-hop.�
This is definitely a must-hit production. #bethere
Here's more info on the lineup for Black Girls Rock Hard:
This native Philly singer/songwriter has been making some serious noise on the local music scene. Sharing the stage with other Philly phenoms like�Carol Riddick, Suzanne Christine, MPYNT and Jeremy Isaac, Nafesa's soulful music and undeniable energy make her an artist to watch.�
Tracey Preston
An actrress, singer, songwriter triple-threat, Tracey Preston has been holding down the local art scene, performing around town since her childhood. Whether on stage with a house band at Warmdaddy's, or taking the leading role in a production / musical, Preston emb. �
A breathe of fresh air, JaE soul-infused rock sound is bringing a new vibe to Philly music, and the city is definitely feeling it. Unquestionably orginal in style and approach, JaE effortlessly blends gritty rock & roll with cool Philly soul for a sound that is all her own.
As a background vocalist and regular contributor to Philly-based soul band, Vertical Current, Chartel is making her mark on Philly music. She's opened for renowned acts like GRAMMY-winner Robert Glasper and �gospel sensation Deon Kipping�? and is definitely another Philly star in the making.�
Suzann Christine
The talented vocalist made her decision to live her life after quitting her full-time job to pursue music and it seems that decision has been paying off. From opening for acts like�Rick Ross, Musiq Soulchild�and�Kindred�to collaborating with MCs�Freeway�and�Chill Moody ?�it?s clear that Suzann Christine is on the right track.
Black Alley
Hailing from the DMV,�Black Alley has been featured on various media outlets to include Okayplayer, EarMilk, ThatsEnuff.com, Washington City Paper, and Washington Post. The video for their single "Artist Prayer" is in heavy rotation on VH1 Soul and the video for their single ?Bad Girl? recently debuted exclusively on MTVHive.com.
The ?Fresh Princess?, as she is affectionately known, is the sound of a new type of artistry. The Columbia, Maryland native?s single ?Bye Boy? was recently featured on MTV.com and has been praised on Bossip.com as ?a video with a message that?s pretty hot." With the creative powers of Carvin Haggins, of Carvin & Ivan, behind her sound, Bria is definitely on her way to the top.

Much of the attention surrounding Heatsick (a.k.a. Steven Warwick) focuses on his relatively spartan set-up, as the UK-born, Berlin-based producer makes music with just a Casio keyboard and a series of guitar pedals. It's certainly intriguing that Warwick relies upon these rudimentary tools, but fixating on his process does his music something of a disservice, as his intricate, loop-based creations are noteworthy in their own right. Heatsick releases have been popping up since the mid '00s, but there's little question that Warwick's efforts for the PAN label in recent years, especially 2013's Re-Engineering, have significantly elevated his stature. Still, after hearing so many of his original creations?"many of which sound like off-kilter takes on house music by someone who most definitely didn't come of age in that scene?"we found ourselves wondering what exactly a Heatsick DJ set would sound like. He's responded to that question with Back 2 Asics, an exclusive mix and the latest installment of the XLR8R podcast series.

DiS has been blathering on about FEMME being one of the most exciting new acts around for several months now and if you haven't already had 'Fever Boy' stuck on repeat and didn't see her perform on our stage at The Great Escape, then now is the time to play catch up with this special premiere.
Over the next four weeks, FEMME will be dropping a series of cover versions of acts that have influenced her sound and aesthetic, each one from a different decade. To kick things off, we have her doo-wop-gone-a-little-electro-hip-hop version of the Shangri-Las 'Sophisticated Boom Boom'. "I only recently discovered that tune," FEMME admits. "It was a Shangri-Las tune I'd not heard before and I fell in love with it. And it's called 'Sophisticated Boom Boom' which is one of the best song titles ever imo."
And here it is...
If you've forgotten what the original sounds like:
Upcoming Live Dates
21/06/14 - LONDON, The Camden Crawl (@ The Beatrice, 8pm)
6/07/14 - SPAIN, Vida Festival 12/07/14 - HAMPSHIRE, Festibelly Festival 17/07/14 ?" LONDON, The Scotch 20/07/14- AMSTERDAM, Milkshake Festival 31/08/214- CAMBRIDGE, Lodestar Festival

Short Bio
FEMME is a one-woman creative powerhouse who incorporates music, art, film and fashion into a compelling art-pop package. Having come to prominence after fronting Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich's Ultra�sta supergroup, an adventure that saw her perform on David Letterman and Jimmy Fallon, support Flying Lotus, and be remixed by Four Tet, Matthew Herbert and David Lynch, she's now best known for her sparky and sassy solo work, which is equally informed by '60s girl groups, MIA, Debbie Harry and Cindy Sherman.
FEMME recently dropped her 'Fever Boy' single to serious acclaim, not least from BBC 6 Music DJ Lauren Laverne and notorious celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, who were among the many people won over by her playful avant-pop aesthetic. Her unique, eye-catching style - she directs all her own videos and designs all the artwork, as well as writing and producing all the music - has also seen her attract the attention of various key figures in the fashion industry, soundtracking two Stella McCartney collections and being featured by French Connection, adidas NEO and boohoo.com global sync.
2014 has already seen FEMME pick up the prestigious 'International Emerging Talent' trophy at the MUSEXPO Awards in L.A., and perform on a stellar line-up at Coachella, kicking off a festival spree that will see her drop in at The Great Escape, Camden Crawl, Festibelly, Vida Festival in Spain and Amsterdam's Milkshake Festival. In between dates she'll be gearing up for the release of her debut album, and will release her next single, the electro pop stomper ?S.O.S?, in Autumn 2014. Prepare to get hooked? thisisfemme.com

With the recent decline in the U.S. dollar, investors are thinking more about international diversification. This can be accomplished by many different means such as buying a foreign stock, buying an ADR of a foreign company or investing in an international fund. However, one method that is often overlooked is buying a large U.S. multi-national company.
As a result globalization, many large U.S. companies now realize a significant percentage of their revenue from foreign markets. Companies that are diversified across several economies offer a real diversification benefit to their investors. They often can reallocate resources from slowing national economies to areas in the world that are enjoying more robust growth.
Below are five U.S. companies that have more than 50% of their sales revenue generated outside the U.S. base on their latest 10K:
Colgate-Palmolive Co. (CL) - 77% Non-U.S. Revenues
CL is a consumer products company, whose products are marketed throughout the world. Colgate's Oral Care products include toothpaste, toothbrushes, oral rinses, dental floss and pharmaceutical products.
Chevron Corporation (CVX) - 56% Non-U.S. Revenues
CVX is a global integrated oil company that has interests in exploration, production, refining and marketing, and petrochemicals.
McDonald's Corporation (MCD) - 66% Non-U.S. Revenues - Analysis
MCD is the largest fast-food restaurant company in the world. Its restaurants serve a varied, yet limited, value-priced menu in more than 100 countries around the world.
The Coca-Cola Company (KO) - 75% Non-U.S. Revenues - Analysis
KO is the world's largest soft drink company. It engages in the manufacture, distribution, and marketing of nonalcoholic beverage concentrates, fruit juices and syrups worldwide.
3M Co. (MMM) - 64% Non-U.S. Revenues - Analysis
MMM is a diversified technology company with a presence in various businesses, including industrial & transportation, healthcare, display & graphics, consumer & office, safety, security & protection services, and electro and communications.
As always, with rewards comes risks. Doing business in countries with different economic and social values can sometimes lead to undesirable results. In the past, U.S. companies have lost facilities to hostile foreign countries when the politics turned against the U.S. When the dollar is weakening currency exchange works for the company, but it works against the company when the dollar is strengthening. As always, you must weigh the risks vrs. rewards prior to investing.
Full Disclosure: Long CVX, MCD, KO, MMM. See a list of all my income holdings here.

Throughout the short, two minute hearing at Newtownards Magistrates Court 39-year-old winger Gillespie remained handcuffed to a prison officer, speaking only to confirm his name.
A police officer told the court that he arrested Gillespie this morning "by arrangement" on foot of a bench warrant issued on Thursday by District Judge Mark Hamill.
The former winger for Leicester, Newcastle Utd, Manchester United - and still a hero on the Windsor Park terraces - had been due to appear charged with breaching a non-molestation order on 21 January this year by being "in the vicinity of the Hamilton Road".
That charge was put to Gillespie on Friday.
Solicitor Darren Duncan said Gillespie had failed to turn up to court as ordered because of an "oversight" on his part, believing that he was not due in court until next month.
"The first he became aware [that he was due in court] was when he was contacted by a media outlet," said Mr Duncan adding that Gillespie, who is from Ballycrochan Ave in Bangor, "immediately contacted our office" for the warrant to be executed.
Releasing Gillespie on his own bail of £400, Judge Hamill said he would put the non-appearance down to "miscommunication" but warned the former footballer to "make sure there are no more misunderstandings".
Declared legally bankrupt in 2010, Gillespie wrote in his autobiography "how not to be a football millionaire," that he had spent around £7m as part of a gambling addiction.
In his playing career Gillespie earned 86 caps for Northern Ireland having made his debut in September 1994 in a 2-1 defeat against Portugal and finished his international career in 2008, playing a vital role in the famous 3-2 win against world and European champion Spain at Windsor Park in September 2006 when David Healy scored a hat trick.
Signed by Man United as a youngster in 1991, Gillespie played for the Red Devils until he was sold to Newcastle in 1995 where he came close to winning the Premiership title under Kevin Keegan.
Following his spell there, Gillespie turned out for Leicester City, Blackburn Rovers, Sheffield United and Bradford before making a shock move to east Belfast club Glentoran in 2009.

Starbucks selling handmade sodas, targets afternoon crowd
Starbucks will sell handmade sodas under the name Fizzio in some U.S. stores to boost afternoon sales, continuing its expansion beyond coffee to attract customers at different times of the day.
Bloomberg News
Starbucks will sell handmade sodas in some U.S. stores to boost afternoon sales, pursuing its expansion beyond coffee to attract customers at different times of the day.
Sodas under the name Fizzio will be made behind the counter with syrup and a carbonation machine. They'll come in three flavors: spiced root beer, ginger ale and lemon ale.
The sodas will go on sale starting Tuesday in about 3,500 Starbucks cafes in the southern U.S., Cliff Burrows, president of the Americas region, said in a phone interview. By this time next year, the sodas will be in all U.S. stores, he said. The chain has about 11,600 U.S. locations.
Starbucks is also revamping its lunch sandwiches and testing new grilled-cheese and beef-brisket baguettes. The Seattle-based coffee chain is targeting the lunch crowd as more competitors encroach on the breakfast business.
Fizzio sodas take about 90 seconds to make, the same as a frappuccino or smoothie, according to Burrows.
"This is the perfect complement to what we've done with our lunch program with foods," Burrows said. While Starbucks sells bottled sodas, customers wanted more refreshing drinks, he said.
The Fizzio machines were designed to be used in stores; there's no plan to sell them to customers, Burrows said.
Prices will vary by market. A medium-sized Fizzio will cost $2.95 in Los Angeles.
Starbucks, which also sells Evolution Fresh juice, La Boulange pastries and Teavana tea, said last week it would raise some prices in its cafes and for Starbucks-branded coffees sold in grocery stores, after a drought in Brazil pushed up the cost of the commodity.
Starbucks stock closed up 13 cents, or 0.2 percent, at $76.73 Monday. The shares have lost 2.1 percent this year, while the Standard & Poor's 500 index has risen 6.2 percent.

Most home gardeners lament the coming of winter since it usually spells the end of the outdoor growing season. But it doesn't have to be that way. Many herbs can be grown indoors quite successfully in the winter months and then be transplanted into the garden the following spring. There's something about the taste of fresh, home-grown herbs in cooking that is hard to beat. The flavors are so much more flavorful and aromatic than using something dry out of a shaker bottle.
With the right location and care, many herbs can be fooled into thinking that summer is still here. If you're a little nervous or skeptical about growing herbs indoors, use some tried and tested varieties such as chives, coriander, dill, mint, oregano, rosemary, parsley, and thyme. Most of these can be started by seed, while mint and rosemary can be started by seed or cutting.
Most herbs are sun lovers and will require a southern facing window that gets at least six hours of sunlight per day. For less sunny locations, mint, parsley and rosemary will get by with less sunlight. You might also consider hanging a grow light 6-9 inches above your plants to provide light on cloudy days. Make sure to also rotate your containers at least once per week in order to help your plants grow evenly.
Start your plants in seed trays and then transplant them to window boxes or larger containers once the plants become rooted. Use a good quality potting soil and make sure the containers you use have drainage holes. If you use water trays under your pots, make sure that you check them after watering and drain any standing water in them.
The herbs mentioned above will do fine provided temperatures are maintained between 55 and 70 degrees. Feed with a water soluble plant food every 2-4 weeks just as you would any other indoor plant, and don't water until the soil surface becomes dry. The use of a small fan will also help herbs survive the stuffy air conditions that can occur indoors in winter.
Plant pests are usually less prevalent during the winter months. Nevertheless, visually check your plants at least once per week, and treat your plants with an insecticidal soap before pests actually become a problem.
So don't let the winter doldrums get you down. Spice up your life and your winter meals with the addition of fresh, homegrown indoor herbs!
Forcing bulbs to bloom inside the house is a wonderful, easy way to get through the cold gray days of winter while adding fragrance and color to your life indoors. If you plan ahead, you can have red tulips for Christmas Day, pink and white hyacinths on Valentine's Day, and the fragrance of springtime in your home all winter long.
The term forcing refers to inducing a plant to produce its shoots, leaves or flowers ahead of its natural schedule and out of its natural environment. To force bulbs, you need to mimic and compress the process the plant would undergo outdoors naturally in the garden.
Small-sized bulbs, such as snowdrops, scilla, muscari, chionodoxa, and crocus can be forced just as easily as larger bulbs such as daffodils, tulips, and hyacinth. Early blooming varieties are better suited for forcing than others. It's also important to select varieties that don't grow too tall.
Narcissus (paper whites) hyacinths, amaryllis, and lily of the valley will grow indoors in water. You can use a bulb vase or a shallow dish filled with clean pebbles or marbles to stabilize the roots and to support the bulbs above the water. Just wedge the bulbs among the pebbles, close to each other but not touching, and cover the pebbles with water. Allow air space between the top of the water and the bottom of the bulb to prevent rot.
For other bulbs, half fill a shallow container with . Fill this layer, small end up, with as many bulbs as will fit in your pot without touching each other. Then add more soil between until they are completely covered. With hyacinths, amaryllis, and narcissus, allow the necks to protrude slightly.
After planting, place the pots in a cool, dark place, such as a cellar, garage or refrigerator to initiate root and shoot growth. If necessary, set boxes, pots or black garbage bags over your potted bulbs to keep them dark during the cooling period. Keep the soil moist through the rooting and cooling period. After five or six weeks, the roots and growth should emerge.
Then move the bulbs to a cool location indoors. The bulbs should be placed in indirect lighting and should not be allowed to dry out. Forcing will take about 12 weeks for the early blooming bulbs (snowdrop, crocus, and daffodil) and about 16 weeks for tulips.
Feed weekly with a half-strength solution of a good houseplant fertilizer. Turn the pots every couple of days to help the flower stems grow straight and strong. When the foliage and buds are well developed, move the pots to a bright, sunny window in the house. Once the flowers begin to open, take the plants out of direct sunlight to prolong the bloom. Then sit back and enjoy the early breath of spring indoors!
