|Do pine needles have any value in a container medium?
Follow-Up Postings:
|I like all organic humus, and more importantly my plants love it. Pine needles will work best as a mulch on top of the ground around the plants. They also work well if you rake them into a pile, run over then with your mower, and then put them on your compost heap for few weeks with some grass clippings. In the absences of those things, I find that a few handfuls of pine needles or leaves mixed in with the soil in a pot helps to improve the soil as they decompose slowly.
Others on the forum will hate them. I'll leave it to Al to explain why all organic matter other than fir bark is evil.

|It's not so much that it is evil.. But more that it packs down in time and affects the drainage. Plus it doesn't break down like it would in the ground.
I have plants(tomato's) in the 5-1-1 doing better than my plants in the ground. There's alot to show and be said for how well Al's mixes do work as is.
|Garf - I'm sort of neutral about pine needles in compost and as mulch - nothing particularly special about it, but pine needles ARE high in terpenes and aqueous methanol, both substances KNOWN as allelopathic (inhibit growth of other plants), so I would probably question the wisdom of including them in container media and leave them out entirely ..... but that's just me. ;o) Spreading an inch or two of mulch over thousands of cu ft of mineral soil wouldn't have nearly the impact as it would if you made them a notable fraction of your container soil.
The organic compounds mentioned do tend to dissipate as the needles age, so if the pine needles no longer SMELL like pine needles, there is a much reduced concern about allelopathy, but the terpenes and other bio compounds are what inhibit decomposition, so by the time the affects of allelopathy are diminished, the needles are at a point where they break down quickly.
You can decide for yourself if you wish to try to tend your containers like they were a garden, and 'feed the soil' instead of the plant. This MO has to lead to rapid soil collapse. It can't be any other way. If you include organic ingredients in your soil that break down quickly, you should expect increased water retention and reduced aeration.
There ARE two different ways of looking at container culture. I simply prefer to set aeration and drainage above other concerns and work from that pivotal point. I, and many, many others, have found it MUCH easier and more productive. I've never said you can't approach container culture from an organic perspective and expect to have healthy plants. It's just harder and much more fraught with pitfalls. I think I can say w/o it being a boast that I'm no slouch when it comes to coaxing vitality into my plants growing under container culture. I've just never been happy about the amount of effort going in or the results coming out of the 'organic or nothing' approach to container culture when I compare it to the media and methods I currently employ.
FWIW - pine needles are no more organic than pine bark or peat. If pine needles offered better physical properties as a soil ingredient than either bark, peat, compost, or any other organic amendment I might choose, I'd use them - but they don't. Their only redeeming quality is that they can be had free, but that needs to be balanced against the negatives.
Take care, and good luck.

| Garf,
I used pine needle leaf mold as potting mix and had good results. See:
Next year I plan to compare this leaf mold mix with 5:1:1 both in 18 gallon totes and both using top watering.
|Re: "pine needles are no more organic than pine bark"
But if you've got pine trees in your yard, they are free and easy to come by. The point that I try to make is that backyard gardening doesn't have to be like some "scavenger hunt" game, where people must search endlessly for the perfect medium to grow healthy plants.
If I were growing a bonsai that I my grandparent had tended for 70 years, or I had paid $1000 for, then I would probably be really picky about what I put in its container. When I'm transplanting some tomato seedlings I planted in a dixie cup from a packet of seeds that cost 50 cents, the tedium isn't neccessary.
Some people are searching everywhere to find the perfect sized bits of bark and sifting ingredients. Others are simply making a pile of leaves, grass clippings, pine needles, and shredded junk mail that cost nothing and are growing food in our yards. While Al's followers are still sifting their ingredients and measuring it, they could be shredding Parmesan cheese to go on top of tomato sauce and pasta made with fresh tomatoes and herbs from their own back yards.
My point is that if you're filling up a pot or bucket with potting mix and realize you don't have enough, it's fine to grab a few handfuls of pine needles, leaves, or tear up some junk mail and mix it with the potting mix and put your plant or seeds into the dirt.
Growing should be fun, it doesn't' have to be like equipping a NASA mission to grow their own food on a 500 year trip to another solar system.
I want people to know that without spending a lot of money or going to lots of trouble, they can grow vegetables in the yard or on their patio.
|I have access to pine needles that have been on the ground for a long time. I might try to collect the lower layer that has partially rotted.
|There are species of pine from Japan and Spain whose needles and roots have highly allelopathic chemicals that inhibit the seed germination and root growth of other plants. This has been observed in the Japanese Red Pine (Pinus densiflora), but not the North American Red Pine (Pinus Resinosa). The opposite is true of the North American Red Pine, which is highly susceptible to the allelopathic chemicals produced my many under-story plants that inhibit the germination and root development of red pine seedlings, which may account for the difficulties in regrowth of red pine forests after clear cutting. ("Allelopathy: A Potential Cause of Forest Regeneration Failure", Richard F. Fisher, 1987)
Oak leaves and pine needles mixed together were found to significantly increase the colonization of beneficial mycorrhizal fungi. ("Litter quality influences on decomposition, ectomycorrhizal community structure and mycorrhizal root surface acid phosphatase activity", Christine Conn and John Dighton, Rutgers University Pinelands Field Station, "Soil Biology and Biochemistry", Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2000, Pages 489-496)
Wood chips from utility prunings decompose significantly faster than than do pine bark and needles. Research found that a decomposition rate of less than 10% for pine bark and needles was not significantly different after 1 year. Studies on the allelopathic properties of North American pines show that their bark and needles both release only very minor amounts of these compounds. Laboratory water extracts from wood chips from utility prunings and pine needles both showed stronger allelopathic effects on the sprouting of lettuce seeds, than did the laboratory extracts from pine bark, but when the wood chips, pine bark, and pine needles were tested as mulch on soil, there was no significant difference observed in seed germination. ("A comparison of landscape mulches: chemical, allelopathic, and decomposition properties", ML Duryea, RJ English, LA Hermansen - Journal of Arboriculture, 1999).
Pine needles can cause the pH of soil to drop over time. This fact has been disputed by some people on these forums who say that "tea" brewed from pine needles has neutral pH. The lowering of soil pH by pine needles is not through a direct action of their own pH, as vinegar or lime would have, but rather by their allelopathic effect on Nitrosomana soil bacteria. By suppressing the growth of some of these bacteria, the balance of ammonium-nitrogen and nitrate-nitrogen is altered, which lowers the pH of the soil when a large amount of pine straw is present. ("Allelopathic inhibition of nitrification and nitrifying bacteria in a ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl.) community" MAK Lodhi, KT Killingbeck , American Journal of Botany, pages 1423-1429, 1980)
Not surprisingly, pine straw and pine bark are not very different in their effects of other plants. When they are fresh, they both can have slightly detrimental effects on other plants, but this potential dissipates quickly as they age.
|So, I guess I'll go out and collect some older pine needles and see if I can use them to advantage.
- Posted by greenman28 Nor Cal 7/8 (My Page) on Tue, Sep 14, 10 at 16:25
|I would advise an experimental container, so that you don't lose any precious plants to the pine.
You might even wish to test the pH of your concoction - that way you'll have a base-line for acidity.
Batch to batch, pine to pine, you'll notice variation. At the very least, I'd add the same amount of
Dolomitic Lime that one would to a pine/fir bark-based soil - 1 Tbsp. per gallon of soil mix.
Good luck, and keep an eye out for yellowing plants.
|No need to get fancy when growing seasonal annuals. Good sun, proper watering and they do great.
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (My Page) on Wed, Sep 15, 10 at 17:09
|I grow all my flowering annuals such as marigolds, impatients which like water anyway, elephant ears, and so on in last years soil, straight very light compost, bagged mixes like MG, sometime soil from the ground mixed with pine leaves and old leaves from previous years, and so on..
By the time the soil rots or breaks down, my annulas usually die of frost or look horrible anyway while I have great looking plants for at least the one season..
I am finicky however about the mixes I use for my vegis and perenials I intend on getting the most fruit yield from ,or keep in the same pot year after year, such as succulents,peones, lilies, roses, tomatos, rasberries, certain perrenial herbs and so forth..
I use mixes that barely break down for the best possible growth imaginable and most yeild on those.....
I can't see wasting my money or time making my own top quality soil mixes that I intent on throwing into the mulch pile before the winter anyway..:-)

|Fancy?! ;o
You mean like using a fork to eat pizza, fancy? ;)
Or pink flamingo color co-ordinated containers fancy ;)
The addition of Dolomitic Lime ain't no fancier than adding any other fertilizer.
It literally takes less than one and a half seconds to add.
And it's quite inexpensive, too.

Hi Mike!
|Admin came and cleaned them up. I don't blame them - they had drifted OT.
|Something tells me that I don't check this thread often enough.
|Masdevallia 'Rosemary' growing in tree fern and white pine needles.
They spent the summer buried under large white pines. They are beginning to bloom which will continue throughout the winter. Very pretty little orchids.
|You have the prettiest little orchids, Jane.
|Thank you

'My Darling' is a stunning new typeface by Alex Kaczun. Inspired by the Didone shapes, 'My Darling' incorporates some Didot, a little Caslon, a splash of Scotch and a pinch of old Times. This unique display, with it's high-contrast strokes is playful, formal and just a bit 'sexy'. The swash capital terminals and lively curves, give this design a unique and distinctive look.
It works well as a headline font, and because it was designed with generous counters, proportions and spacing—works equally well over a large range of text point sizes.

Art Direction
I start the Art Direction process instinctively during a clients initial consultation. There are so many area's in design where this skill is used that they are just too long to name. I consider this a part of my design process and I count it as part of my hourly rate. There are some circumstances where many hours are spent planning a project, coming up with innovative ways to improve upon someones business or researching. Although I offer a free consultation, at a certain point this becomes work and should be paid for.
I have one goal. That is to take your idea's and enhance them. It is my favorite part of the design process. So when you call me for a consultation, tell me about your long term goals and anything you think that may be pertinent to the success of your project. The more I know, the more I can form successful strategies which can save you money and help me to hit your deadline.
If you are a new business or are just updating your current look, you may want to read my section on Logo's and Branding. This is where I explain my thinking behind many of the strategies I use when taking on projects.
Graphic Design
Out of all of the five senses possessed by a human being, visual perception is obviously the most crucial one. Scientists claim that our first impressions are based off the first 7 seconds of viewing something, this is why my tagline is "Image is Everything".
I specialize in accessing your project and then designing what you need to meet a high quality standard for the genre of art or business that you are targeting. Great graphic design is the use of a mixture of clever typography combined with appropriate photos to instantly send the message you want your viewer to perceive. It is truly an art, one that I have studied, practiced and successfully delivered for over 13 years.
So… what ever your project may be, please take the time to tell me all about what message you want to get across to your audience. Your communication with me is key to the success of your project. Initial emails are great, but from my experience, an in-depth phone consultation or meeting me in person is much more productive and allows me to ask the questions I need answered in order to fulfill your needs. If I don't answer the phone, please leave a message and I will always call back within 24 hours. (310-403-8637)
Web Design
First Impressions are everything. Today's consumer expects incredible looking websites that are as functional as they are beautiful to look at. I take great pride in the process of designing and implementing a website that you will be excited and proud to represent you or your company.
The most recent trend is to design a website that works not only on a computer, but on tablets and cell phones as well. Its called Responsive Design which I have been studying feverishly as it is always advancing into having new and exciting capabilities . In fact, tech news states that more tablets will be sold in the year 2014 then desktops and the term "Web Design" is changing to "Screen Design". Luckily we have CSS standard compliance. This is the code that styles the websites along with html which structures them. CSS Standard Compliance has striven to make all of the different browsers react the same to the code that is behind the scenes of your website so you get close to the same results no matter what browser you use. They have done wonders working with browsers such as Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, just to name a few although Window's Explorer is further behind then most but there are fixes for this.
This is why designing a custom website's costs have risen. I offer this service and can design any look you can dream up and can solely design some of these designs by myself, but on others I may need to bring in my programmer if the project is above my technical programming skills. I have many connections with brilliant programmers so no project is to large or complicated, and in order to save you money, I take over the design of the front end and choose the technologies that would best enhance the users experience, then I art direct the rest of the team to ensure that the results I am seeking are delivered.
Some times its easier and more affordable to choose a pre-designed template. The templates that are being created in WordPress and Joomla already have the code to work with Responsive Design and have been tested on browsers.

Obama Campaign Promises They Won't Be Calling Mitt Romney 'Weird,' Exactly
David Axelrod is mincing words now.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
David Axelrod is mincing words now.
"He's a decent person and a good journalist."
"He was encouraging on health care" and a "whole range of issues."
At least four times over the past year, they've noted the similarities between RomneyCare and ObamaCare.
Axelrod: "This is a bubble."
Yeah, but it wasn't last night.
After discouraging it in 2008, the White House will grudgingly accept hundreds of millions of dollars in outside spending, if it has to.
Why did Democrats think this was a winning issue, anyway?
"Even the truth doesn't restrain him when it comes to assaulting his enemies list."
Plus, Stephen Colbert loses a debate with bag of Sun Chips, on our regular late-night roundup.
"I break in my personal records all the time, which is a bad sign."
Our search for ... what that is.
Was their story "100 percent inaccurate," or just somewhat inaccurate?
And Doug Liman is still making 'Survivor' jokes.
Unless you think waking up at 5:30 a.m. is exciting.
They suggest bashing Republicans instead.
It's either definitely happening this year, definitely not happening this year, or maybe happening this year.
The Chief of Staff is coming under fire for being blinded by his love for Obama and for failing to clearly define the President's message.
"There's no need to," says Axelrod.

December 21, 2014
Men and women across the Stateline are saying thank you to the service men and women who've given their lives for their country. Today at Memorial Hall in Rockford, the message to "Remember the Troops" was loud and clear.
The Daughters of the American Revolution hosted an event there to commemorate all American soldiers in all wars. Servicemen and women from across the Stateline gathered to remember those who gave their lives for our country. It was also a chance to catch up with old friends. Today is an emotional day for everyone in uniform.
"It's a very important day to me. It's just, I don't have the words. I'm sorry, I don't have the words. It's just very very important to me," says Butch North, Commander of the Winnebago County Veterans Association.
The Winnebago County Veterans Association is active in our community. They offer scholarships to high school students and donate money to veteran nursing homes.

China's Factory Output Grows
BEIJING -- China's factory output and consumer spending rose in November in signs of a recovery from an economic slowdown, and there was an uptick in inflation, with prices of vegetables and other food rising as the country headed into winter.
Factory output increased 10.1% from a year earlier, compared to the previous month's rise of 9.6% year on year, the government's National Bureau of Statistics reported Sunday. Retail sales rose 14.9%, up from October's 14.5%.
Consumer prices increased by 2.0%, driven largely by weather-related disruptions in the prices of vegetables and other food, an unusually sensitive issue in a society where the poorest families spend up to half their incomes on food.
The country's economic growth has been slowing, falling last quarter to a three-and-a-half-year low of 7.4% as the leadership pursues a policy of targeted stimulus. The government has aimed to keep a lid on any economic overheating and sharp price rises, such as those that followed its huge stimulus in response to the 2008 global financial crisis.Forecasters expect growth to rebound this quarter or early in 2013, but say it will be gradual and likely to be too weak to drive global growth.

Ray Metzler has been promoted to Wildlife Section Assistant Chief with the Alabama Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries (WFF). As assistant chief, Metzler will coordinate needed wildlife research and surveys, and ensure various program guidelines and laws are met, among other duties.
Metzler earned his Bachelor of Science in Wildlife from West Virginia University in 1982, and in 1986 joined the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources as a WFF Wildlife Biologist at Wolf Creek Wildlife Management Area in Walker County. In 1987, Metzler earned his Masters in Wildlife Science from Auburn University and he was promoted to Hunter Education Coordinator in 1993.
As Hunter Education Coordinator for the state, Metzler helped Alabama's hunter education program become one of the best in the country and he was a leader in the development of web-based hunter education materials. He also supervised the development of Alabama's National Archery in the Schools (NASP) program. In partnership with the Archery Trade Association, Metzler helped develop the first state-run archery park in the nation. Today there are multiple WFF archery parks across the state where the public can enjoy archery shooting.
According to his supervisor, WFF Wildlife Section Chief Gary Moody, Metzler is an exemplary and enthusiastic leader, who actively seeks input from others in an effort to improve WFF programs. "Ray is one of the most positive individuals on our staff," Moody said. "He leads by example, accomplishes much without taking personal credit and is incredibly effective at developing partnerships. His leadership as assistant chief will lead to improvements in the Wildlife Section."
Metzler, who lives with his wife and daughter in Prattville, Ala., is an active angler and loves hunting, especially bowhunting. His son is studying wildlife biology at Auburn University. The Metzlers are also avid street and mountain bikers and enjoy riding the Rails to Trails facilities in Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland when they have the time.
The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources promotes wise stewardship, management and enjoyment of Alabama's natural resources through five divisions: Marine Police, Marine Resources, State Lands, State Parks, and Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries.

Actually, no, it doesn't take that long, and I do it by hand... I guess it just depends on how efficient you are in the kitchen :) They don't have to be perfect matchsticks! I think the general concensus around here is not to rate things you haven't actually made, but thanks for the feedback.

Ethanol is a clear, colorless alcohol fuel made from the sugars found in grains, such as corn, sorghum, and wheat, it not helpful and can be very harming to the body. No one should use ethanol. it is filled with sugar and teas from china, japan, and sewage tanks
HISTORY OF ETHANOLEdit
{C Ethanol is not a new fuel. In the 1850s, ethanol was a major lighting fuel. During the Civil War, a liquor tax was placed on ethanol to raise money for the war. The tax increased the price of ethanol so much that it could no longer compete with other fuels such as kerosene in lighting devices. Ethanol production declined sharply because of this tax and production levels did not begin to recover until the tax was repealed in 1906.
{C In 1908, Henry Ford designed his Model T to run on a mixture of gasoline and alcohol, calling it the fuel of the future. In 1919, when Prohibition began, ethanol was banned because it was considered a liquor. It could only be sold when it was mixed with petroleum. With the end of Prohibition in 1933, ethanol was used as a fuel again. Ethanol use increased temporarily during World War II when oil and other resources were scarce. In the 1970s, interest in ethanol as a transportation fuel was revived when embargoes by major oil producing countries cut gasoline supplies. Since that time ethanol use has been encouraged by offering tax benefits for producing ethanol and for blending ethanol into gasoline. In 1988, ethanol began to be added to gasoline for the purpose of reducing carbon monoxide emissions. Learn more about the history of ethanol in a timeline.
ETHANOL AS A TRANPSORTATION FUELEdit
As a transportation fuel, ethanol can be used as a total or partial replacement for . Gasoline containing ten percent ethanol - E10 - is used in many urban areas that don't meet clean air standards. Some states promote more widespread use of E10. Minnesota, for example, requires almost all gasoline sold in the state to contain 10 percent ethanol. All vehicles that run on gasoline can use E10 without making changes to their engines. Over 99 percent of the ethanol produced in the United States is mixed with gasoline to make E-10.
E85 is an that is 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline, used mainly in the Midwest (especially Minnesota and Illinois) and South. Vehicles are not modified to run on E85; they are specially manufactured as flexible fuel vehicles (FFV). Flexible Fuel Vehicles can use any mixture of ethanol and gasoline up to E85. There are about 146,000 cars and trucks using E85. Most of these are fleet vehicles.
Ethanol is also used as a fuel in NASCAR.
Ethanol and the EnvironmentEdit
Using ethanol means that we use a little bit less oil (a nonrenewable fuel) to make gasoline. Unlike gasoline, ethanol is nontoxic (safe to handle) and biodegradable, it quickly breaks down into harmless substances if spilled. When small amounts of ethanol are added to gasoline, usually less than 10 percent, there are many advantages. Ethanol reduces carbon monoxide and other toxic pollution from the tailpipes of vehicles, making the air cleaner. It keeps engines running smoothly without the need for lead or other chemical additives. Because ethanol is made from crops that absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen, it has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help maintain the balance of CO2 in the atmosphere. This process is called the carbon cycle.

This basic homemade soap recipe is a good place to start as it will allow you to practice the process of making homemade soap; mixing the ingredients, getting the texture right and simply getting to know the whole process. This recipe is for a cold process soap and you need to pre-measure all ingredients before getting starting and have all your equipment ready.
9 oz | 255 grams coconut oil
21 oz | 595 grams olive oil
9 oz | 255 grams distilled water
4.1 oz | 166 grams sodium hydroxide
- Blend the oils in a stainless steel or enamel saucepan and heat up gently until fluid and mixed well. Remove from the heat.
- Pour the distilled water into a glass or plastic bowl and mix in the lye (sodium hydroxide) and stir until dissolved. Protect yourself with gloves and goggles and avoid any contact with skin and eyes.
- Place a thermometer in the lye mixture and let it set while checking the temperature until it reaches 32-40 degrees Celsius or 90-110 Fahrenheit.
- Mix in the oils, the key is to reach a temperature between 90-110 degrees Fahrenheit or 32-45 degrees Celsius.
- Place your stick blender in the bowl and start mixing until the mixture thickens. It is ready when it starts smelling like soap and leaves trace.
- Quickly pour the mixture into the mold before it starts to get solid
- Wrap the mold in a towel and leave it to set for 24 hours
- Clean up all the equipment
- After 24 hours, put your gloves on again and remove the soap from the mold and cut into the shapes and pieces you prefer. Leave them for about 3-4 weeks. You can test with pH-strips.

Glassware Identification
Manhattan was made by Anchor Hocking from 1938 to 1943 in crystal, pink, some green, ruby and iridized. In 1987 Anchor Hocking started making Park Avenue, which is a later version of Manhattan, but all the pieces that are newly made have different measurements from the old original pieces.
The Manhattan pattern is crystal clear with striking raised concentric rings around the dishes. It is sometimes called "Horizontal Ribbed."

"Since I grew tired of the chase
And search, I learned to find;
And since the wind blows in my face,
I sail with every wind."
"To endure is greater than to dare; to tire out hostile fortune; to be daunted by no difficulty; to keep heart when all have lost it; to go through intrigue spotless; to forego even ambition when the end is gained - who can say this is not greatness?"
"Hey, my love, you came to me like wine comes to the mouth
grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart.
And love, you quench my mind."
"My elementary school days were miserable. After Star Search, the jealousy got really bad that our neighbors slashed our tires."
"And in a chair well-known
My mother sat, and did not tire
With reading all alone.
If I should make the slightest sound
To show that I'm awake,
She'd rise, and lap the blankets round,
My pillow softly shake;
Kiss me, and turn my face to see
The shadows on the wall,
And then sing Rousseau's Dream to me,
Till fast asleep I fall."
"I got tired of feeling like Dracula. I wanted to see some daylight, and not just at six o'clock in the morning."
"It is not easy to produce performances like this when we have so many players who are tired after so many games."

King Estate Executive Chef Michael Landsberg Returns to the Winery Inspired by his Travels
In April, at the invitation of the Four Seasons Hotel at Marunouchi, in Tokyo, Japan King Estate Executive Chef Michael Landsberg spent a week in Tokyo preparing several special meals at the prestigious hotel. The guest appearance included the presentation of a number of lunches and dinners, several cooking classes, and culminated with a delectable 5 course gala dinner. The following are Chef Landsberg's reflections on the successful trip, and at the bottom a gallery of photographs.
Traveling to Japan was such a lively and exhilarating experience. The restaurant options one has to choose from are mind-blowing and seemingly endless. There is everything from ramen (Japanese noodles), to world-class sushi, to the traditional 'one-pot' spots. The food presentation is inviting and highly polished, whether you are ordering from a world-class establishment, a department store food court, or from a vendor in Tokyo train station. Packaging is pivotal and rote, the Japanese truly believe that food should satisfy all of the senses.
Some of the highlights of my trip were visiting the world famous Tskiji Fish Market where I saw a plethora of everything imaginable (and many things unimaginable!) in the world of fish. I got a glimpse of the Tuna auctions, saw all kinds of live fish, and witnessed masterly techniques of butchering a wide variety of fish and shellfish.
Things that I have learned and gained: The Japanese are very technically skilled and hard working people, and they take so much pride in their work. Precision and consistency are among the most highly regarded qualities in a culinary professional. Unlike the Pacific Northwest where local, sustainable and seasonal are the buzzwords, in the island country of Japan they must cull food products from all over the world. The level of customer service across the board in Japan is awe inspiring, so attentive and professional, comparable to the most impressive service in America's fine restaurants. Every customer is treated with the utmost importance.
I can't wait to return to learn more, and I look forward to incorporating much of what I have learned into the culinary program here at King Estate.

QUESTION: As a general rule, when you see a spike that has 3- to 4-inch spikes, what age is that deer? Do first-year bucks born in May and June produce spikes? — Dan
ANSWER: As a general rule, a deer with 3- or 4-inch spikes is a yearling, probably somewhere around a year and six or seven months old, depending on what month it was born, and when you see/shoot it.
This old Alabama bruiser was conservatively
aged at 8-plus years old.
Older deer with poor genetics or well past their prime might have spikes, but they are typically much longer. I once killed an 8-plus-year-old buck in Alabama that had spikes more than a foot long.
The second part of your question is a bit more complicated, as there are so many variables affecting what causes spike antlers. Late-born fawns enter winter in poorer condition than their older cohorts, which could hinder antler development through the next year. Poor nutrition could also result in yearling spike bucks, as could a genetic predisposition to grow spikes as a yearling, although the latter is uncommon.
Countless studies have been done on yearling spike bucks, and nearly all have shown that, later on in life, these bucks will eventually catch up with, and can even surpass, their peers in terms of antler quality.

Business Highlights
The joint "stalking horse" bid would set the floor for an auction process that lets competitors make better offers. A judge would have to approve any final sale.
US home prices accelerate in November
WASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ U.S. home prices accelerated in November compared with a year ago, pushed higher by rising sales and a tighter supply of available homes.The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index rose 5.5 percent in November compared with the same month a year ago. That's the largest year-over-year gain in six years. All but one of the cities in the index posted annual gains. The largest gain was in Phoenix, where prices jumped nearly 23 percent. It was followed by San Francisco, where prices rose 12.7 percent, and Detroit, where they increased 11.9 percent. ___ 3 months after Sandy, victims still waiting for relief NEW YORK (AP) â¿¿ Devon Lawrence neatly stacked bricks on the gas burner of his kitchen stove and turned up the blue flame, creating a sort of radiator that warmed the ice-cold room. His two-story house in the Far Rockaway section of Queens hasn't had working heat since Superstorm Sandy's floodwaters destroyed the oil burner in the basement. Now mold is growing upstairs because the house has been cold and damp for so long. Lawrence wakes early every morning to heat the bricks and light a kerosene space heater while his 75-year-old mother sits in bed in a hat and gloves. ___ Pfizer 4Q net jumps on sale of nutrition business Drugmaker Pfizer Inc.'s fourth-quarter results easily beat Wall Street expectations, driving up its stock, as profit more than quadrupled, due to tighter spending and a $4.8 billion gain from selling its nutrition business. Those boosts offset competition from generic drugs hurting sales of Lipitor and other medicines. The world's biggest drugmaker said Tuesday that its net income was $6.32 billion, or 85 cents per share, up from $1.44 billion, or 19 cents per share, a year earlier.

Squeeze the lemon juice in to a mixing bowl then add the sugar. Mix the two together until they are completely mixed up. The scrub is now ready to use.
Using the sugar lemon scrub
Wash your face and ensure that you get rid of any oils that may have formed on your skin. When your face is clean, place a hot towel that has been dipped in hot water and squeezed. The vapor from the towel will open up your pores and thus make your scrubbing process better by enabling your facial skin to breathe.
After three minutes, wash your face in warm water. Ensure that you get rid of all the sugar mixture from your face. Pat your face dry with a towel and do not apply anything. Let your face breathe through the night. This process should be repeated twice every week and preferably at night before you go to bed.

Daily entries from the 17th century London diary
Candlemas Day (Brewers Phrase and Fable)
The feast of the purification of the Virgin Mary, when Christ was presented by her in the Temple. February 2nd, when, in the Roman Catholic Church, there is a candle procession, to consecrate all the candles which will be needed in the church during the year. The candles symbolise Jesus Christ, called "the light of the world," and "a light to lighten the Gentiles." It was the old Roman custom of burning candles to the goddess Februa, mother of Mars, to scare away evil spirits.
"On Candlemas Day
Candles and candlesticks throw all away."

A personal exercise plan is your own road map to reaching your fitness goals. Your plan should include the following things:
Some common fitness goals are:
Write your fitness goals down on paper. Keep them in a place where you can look at them often. Try sticking them on your refrigerator.
If your goal is to lose body fat or gain muscle mass, then you should be tracking your progress at least two to three times each week. You need to check your progress to know if you need to make any changes to your plan. For example, if you have not lost any body fat after 2 weeks of trying, then you know you have to change your fitness plan. The more often you can track your progress, the sooner you can adjust your plan.
If your goal is better performance, like improving your 5K time, increasing your one rep max in the bench press, or improving your 40-yard sprint time, then you should track your progress after each workout.
It is important to include the following in your exercise plan:
How much of the strength, cardiovascular, or agility training depends on your fitness goals. Always talk with your healthcare provider before starting any new fitness routine. Set a deadline to meet your goals. Setting a deadline helps you focus and have a sense of urgency. Reward yourself if you achieve your goal. Once you have met one set of goals, create a new and different personal fitness plan.
There are many places to look for help:

State of Illinois offering Microsoft Elevate America vouchers via numerous channels
CHICAGO � Illinoisans interested in improving their computer skills can take free computer classes and exams thanks to the Microsoft Elevate America program. With these newly developed skills, individuals will be able to access greater job opportunities and better compete in the workplace, according to the state�s top commerce official.

Through October 31, individuals can request a voucher to take free online courses, including intermediate-level Microsoft Office 2003 and Microsoft Office 2007, as well as advanced-level training for IT professionals. Vouchers must be activated before October 31 but individuals have up to a year to complete coursework. Certification testing is also available if completed by October 31.
