Comments about Foremost Large Shelf Cube:
This shelf is held together with wood dowels and 4 screws for the top and 4 screws for the bottom so assembly is a breeze with only a phillips head screwdriver required.
Be aware however that the shelves are hollow core construction (just a very thin plywood material covered with a veneer) so there is not much to the shelves themselves and with minimal supports, this is truly made for light items.
I am using this as a shelf to hold several laptops and an all in one printer/scanner/fax and the laptops are fine (all about 7 pounds) but when I placed the all in one unit which weights just over 20 pounds on the top shelf, it visibly bowed. I will be adding several angle bracket supports under the top shelf and this should meet my needs but this shelf is designed for only lightweight items.
Also be aware of the dimensions of the product - the total unit is 15 inces tall, 15 inches deep and 30 inches wide. The actual space on each shelf is just under 7 inches so taller items will not fit.
Overall, this is a good entry level shelf unit at a good price.

Comments about Foremost Large Shelf Cube:
I spoke with a representative while I placed this order. I was told that each division was 15" high which would have been perfect. In actuallity, the entire cube was 15: tall making each shelf only 7" tall. VHS and DVDs don't fit.
Easy construction and very nice finish and details.

STATE OF MAINE SUPERIOR COURT CUMBERLAND, ss CIVIL ACTION Docket No. CV-81-884 PORTLAND PUBLIC LIBRARY, ) ) Plaintiff ) vs. ) ORDER ) PORTLAND TEACHERS ASSOCIATION,) ET AL., ) Defendants ) In this case, the Portland Public Library challenges a determination by the Maine Labor Relations Board that the Public Library is a "public employer" as that term is defined in 26 M.R.S.A. 962-7.[fn]1 Appeal is brought pursuant to Rule 80B M.R. Civ. P.[fn]2 and 26 M.R.S.A. 968-4 and 972. The parties have briefed the issues with considerable care. However, the Court does not view the question as particularly close. The administrative record leaves no doubt that the Maine Labor Relations Board findings at pages 2 through 6 of its June 18, 1981 order are supported by substantial evidence in the record ______________________________ 1 "Public employer" means any officer, board, commission, council, committee or other persons or body acting on behalf of any municipality or town or any subdivision thereof, or of any school, water, sewer or other district, or of the Maine Turnpike Authority, or of any county or any subdivisions thereof. 2 Rule 80B was replaced by Rule 80C M.R. Civ. P., effective February 15, 1983. [-1-] ___________________________________________________________________ and, therefore, are not subject to reversal by this Court; Sanford Highway Unit of Local 481 v. Town of Sanford, 411 A.2d 1010 (Me. 1980); Bangor Water District v. Maine Labor Relations Board, 427 A.2d 973, 976 (Me. 1981). With those findings establishing the close relationship of the City and the library, the case is essentially controlled by the principals articulated in Baker Bus Service v. Keith, 416 A.2d 727 (Me. 1980) which govern the conditions under which private or quasi-public entities may become public employers for purposes of application of the Public Employees Labor Relations Act, 26 M.R.S.A. 961 et seq. The result reached by the Maine Labor Relations Board is consistent with those principals; it is not subject to reversal. Therefore, the Court ORDERS and the entry shall be: 1. Appeal DENIED. 2. Order of the Maine Labor Relations Board is AFFIRMED. Date: August 22, 1983 /s/____________________________ DONALD G. ALEXANDER Justice, Superior Court -2- __________________________________________________________________

Hey friends! Hope everyone had a great weekend. I can't wait to share this black bean salsa with you today featuring Avocados from Mexico. It's so easy to whip up and is such a yummy snack! I'm not a huge guacamole fan, but this black bean salsa I LOVE. It's the perfect party food. Enjoy it with your favorite tortilla chips or crackers. It also tastes great over your favorite Mexican dishes.
Corn and black bean salsa
Black bean salsa
- 1 can of sweet corn (drained)
- 1 can of black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 3 tomatoes
- 1 red pepper
- 2 avacados from Mexico
- 2 limes
- 1/4 cup onion
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 3/4 cup cilantro
- Combine the corn and beans into a medium sized bowl. Dice the onion, pepper, avocados and tomatoes then mix them in the bowl. Cut the cilantro and mix that in with the salt and sugar. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top. Stir and enjoy with tortilla chips or wheat thins.
To make this a meal… grab a wheat tortilla, put a few spoonfuls of salsa in and roll it up. This makes a quick and easy lunch!

Review: 'Unbroken' is brutal and only part of the story

text: To buy sights for the XDS: Sights - xd-hs2000 Since the XDS comes from the factory with the same height sights "G" as most all of the other XD & XDm`s there is already aftermarket sights that fit this new pistol. Springfield was wrong and the dovetail was not different on the on the XDS. There are at least a dozen members already using aftermarket sights on their XDS`s with no reported issues. When using the Trijicon HD`s on the XDS use a combat sight picture. Put the rage front dot in the cut out of the rear.....this will line up all three dots. Put the center of the front dot on what you want to hit. To make a head shot put the front dot covering the nose to hit the nose. You use the truglo TFO`s the same way. Combat sight picture. The Trijicon HD XD specific version does not look right on the small XDS slide. The rear sight sticks out off the back of the slide and the gap is kind of wide. But Trijicon HD for the Sig Sauer & XD fits nicely on the slide. This target represents the XDS being shot with factory sights and Winchester white box 230gr RN. My pistol shot to the left constantly at 10 ft, this is not an error on the shooters part since the group was always tight, but to the left. When I moved to 20 ft the groups moved to the right. All three versions of the XD factory pistol sights from right to left: Classic XD, XDS & XDM. My copy of the XDS came equipped with the "G" marked rear sight. The "G" marked factory sights come on almost 99% of all XD series pistols no matter the barrel length or calibre. The XDS has the same dovetails as all other XD and XDm`s. The Truglo TFO`s fit the XDS pistols but did require some fitting before installation.

I am still trying to digest one manouver: Flying vertical and not quite fast, it stopped, then tumbled backwards 270 degrees then do a slow flat spin 180 and take off like a bat out of hell! And I don't think it lost 100 feet of altitude while doing all the stuff. It looked like a mad helicopter in the hands of an equally derranged pilot. Awsome airplane...just awsome!

For slideshows, same thing. Some HTML5+JS solutions like reveal.js are really nice. LaTeX+Beamer is good for some stuff.
For spreadsheets, I think Google Docs handles 98% of the use cases of Excel or LibreOffice. The only real complaint I've heard is creating regression lines in plots are much harder than need be. The online storage and collaboration features are hugely valuable. For people doing data analysis type tasks in a spreadsheet, a command line tool like R or one of the R-like tools like python+pandas or Incanter is often a better choice.

Money Talks: The Troops are Saying 'Vote Obama'
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has repeatedly claimed that he can speak for the interests of U.S. troops and best represent what they want. During a November 2007 debate, for example, McCain said:
I want to -- and I want to tell you something, sir. I just finished having Thanksgiving with the troops, and their message to you is -- the message of these brave men and women who are serving over there is: Let us win. Let us win.
Moreover, he has charged that Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), "who does not understand what's happening in Iraq or fails to acknowledge the success in Iraq, would rather lose a war than lose a campaign."
But a new analysis by Open Secrets finds that the U.S. military is increasingly rejecting McCain as its spokesman. Obama has received nearly six times as much money from soldiers deployed overseas. Even anti-war libertarian Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX), who has suspended his campaign, has received more than four times as much as McCain:

A leader's ultimate task is to inspire others to bring all their focus to build a great future for their organization, their own people, and the people they serve. And yet, it is hard—if not impossible—to inspire others before first bringing pride within the organization. This intrinsic satisfaction derives from a great match between our internal set of values and our organizational values.
We can only align when what's important to us is also important to the organization we serve.
Mismatches occur when there is a shift in leadership, a shift in overall goals, change within the organization, or societal change trends.
How can you bring pride to your tribe?
- Know thyself: A marriage stays together when both partners share a set of values, common interests, and goals. If one partner is unhappy and resists working on staying together, the marriage dissolves. Like in marriage, the best alliances occur when people feel their own values are represented and aligned with the organizational values. When people resist change, they will try to modify the organization instead of becoming more agile, flexible, and collaborative. Work on ensuring this alignment.
- Identify shared values that unify you, your co-workers, and those you serve. This powerful discovery leads to working together more effectively during easy as well as hard times. Knowing the shared values of the group allows groups to work together beyond personal gain.
- Focus on your ultimate shared goal: Create a positive environment where pride unifies and doesn't split "us" against "them." Pride offers a good foundation and common ground. While subgroups within large organizations take pride on their own accomplishments, focus on the overarching goals beyond silos.
- Create a cohesive tribe: Internal squabbles work against the strength of the tribe, whereas a strong front will make it powerful and hard to beat. Bring people together by optimizing each contributor's talent into action.
- Inspire: Once you feel pride in your association with your organization, you can aspire to go to the next level. The degree of enthusiasm, motivation, and overall empowerment results from having our feet on the ground with pride and shared vision manifested through inspiration.

A Real Housewife finally has fessed up to doing something wrong!
After we watched Monday's drama-packed episode of the Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra Barney took to her blog to publicly admit that she had done wrong by lying to Shannon Beador.
PHOTOS: Real Housewives, Real Scandals: 28 Of The Biggest Scandals To Hit The Bravo Franchise
"I totally lied to Shannon and I feel like a jerk!" Barney wrote on her Bravo blog.
To recap, Barney told Heather Dubrow about an email that Beador had received from her husband. She and her husband have been having marital problems for quite some time now, so Beador confided in Barney and asked her not to tell anyone. Thinking that Dubrow normally never tells a secret, Barney told Dubrow – only to have it spread like wildfire.
PHOTOS: Real Housewives, Real Scandals: 28 Of The Biggest Scandals To Hit The Bravo Franchise
"Yes, I will take total blame for it all," Barney wrote. "I should have never told anyone and I feel really bad about it.
Barney wrote that she has told Dubrow secrets in the past, so she felt she could trust her with this information; she wrote that she was concerned about her friend's "excessive" drinking.

"It is just not [Dubrow's] character to repeat something that was told to her in confidence," she wrote. "It was not like we were sitting at a table making fun of her and her marriage issues.
"It was two concerned friends worried about a new friend that was dealing with some deep problems."

Barney wrote that she lied to Beador when she first confronted her because she panicked. Her previous experiences with Dubrow's trustworthiness led her to be caught off guard by the housewife's transgression.
"At that moment I had was in shock, I wanted to talk to Heather and find out what happened — we all know how these things get twisted," Barney wrote.
So, Radar readers, who do YOU think is in the wrong? Do you think Beador should be telling anyone about her marital woes? Sound off in the comments below!

Minneapolis, 2010.
When Norman's heart skidded to a halt right in front of us, we were all munching Betty's butterbrickle in the old recreation center next to the bocce ball courts, and discussing the misconjugation of adverbs. He suddenly slump-shouldered over in the hard-cushioned metal chair, and his head awkwardly bounced once on the shiny veneer tabletop. It made the sound of a gourd slipping from your hands at the farmer's street market.
Within seconds in one off-putting efficient operation, Helen, our president and ever mindful of decorum, called paramedics on her Blackberry. They tried to revive Norman with a defibrillator but its battery was dead. By the time they installed a new battery in the electric-shock machine, they had to radio the coroner's man.
His death was published in the retirement community's newsletter, which was unusual because its editor had always made it a point to avoid mention of death like the plague. I figured retired newspaper editor Norman wouldn't have much minded the ink. Our group, six without Norman, couldn't find the will (I almost said heart) to meet for four months afterward; and still, when we did, nobody would sit in Norman's chair. Our seniors writing group finally met in early January, a chilly evening in which we all had un-trunked winter garments smelling sweet with moth balls and cedar.

I recently moved to montana after traveling for a year and need some new tires for my XC race hardtail. It seems like the trails here are a mix of hardpack with sand, loose rocks and some larger rocks, which is a bit different than what was around Seattle, so I am looking at new tire options.
Previously I liked the racing ralphs, but they do not handle loose over hardpack very well and are pricey. Is the new tread pattern better?
I am currently thinking about a maxxis icon exo rear/ rocket ron snake skin front would this be a good pairing?
I have been racing for 5 years and have decent handling skills on low knob tires, but want a bit more front grip when the trail gets loose while maximizing speed.

Family, particularly fathers and sons. Can there be a more inexhaustible topic for great playwrights?
From Shakespeare (think all those "Henry" history plays) to Arthur Miller (consider "All My Sons" and "Death of a Salesman"), the subject has been potent dramatic fodder. And in "Fences," August Wilson made his own unmistakable, powerful contribution to the genre in what is perhaps his most personal play.
First seen in New York in 1987 with James Earl Jones, "Fences" has now returned with an equally starry actor, Denzel Washington in the lead. Washington, last on Broadway in 2005 with a production of "Julius Caesar," acquits himself well in this blistering revival, directed with a sure, steady hand by Wilson veteran Kenny Leon. It's a big, bold performance in a big, bold play, rife with emotion-drenched soliloquies for its star about life, love, death and the devil.
The production opened Monday at Broadway's Cort Theatre for limited engagement through July 11.
Washington portrays Troy Maxson, a 53-year old black sanitation worker who once had dreams of professional baseball glory. The time is the late 1950s, when black baseball players were beginning to make names for themselves in the major white leagues. Troy came along too soon, and his aspirations died hard but his anger never cooled.
Instead, he channeled his life into his family: wife Rosa (Viola Davis) and teenage son (Chris Chalk). The key word here is responsibility, a word Troy reverse above all else. That responsibility runs headlong into his son's desire to play football and win a possible college scholarship.
A clash is inevitable, and the tension builds slowly as Troy reveals details about his past life- his volatile dealings with his own father, his time in prison (a stint that cost him his first wife) and the chance to be around his oldest son (Russell Hornsby).
But the most moving part of "Fences" deals with Troy's complex relationship with his wife. The two have a natural, easy rapport, often sparked by Troy's sexual banter. And his bluster is soothed by Rose's deceptively calm demeanor.
Davis gives an incandescent performance as Rosa, a wife who has sacrificed all for her family. Husband and child anchor her. And when that bond is broken, Rosa makes some surprising choices, decisions that Davis conveys with devastating truthfulness.
The play's one problematic, obvious character is Gabriel, Troy's brain-damaged brother, whose otherworldly insight courses throughout "Fences." Spiritually clairvoyant characters are staples of Wilson's plays, and, Gabriel, complete with trumpet and played with childlike simplicity by Mykelti Williamson, is no exception.
And there is some major truth-telling by other supporting characters as well.
"Some people build fences to keep people out … and other people build fences to keep people in," says Troy's good pal, Bono, portrayed by the indispensable Stephen McKinley Henderson, another Wilson pro.
In its previous New York incarnation, "Fences," was one of Wilson's 10 decade-by-decade works chronicling the black experience in 20th century America, proved to be his most commercially successful Broadway production. You can see why in this revival. The people he created are so gloriously, recognizably human.
Denzel Washington is the draw for this revival of August Wilson's "Fences." But it's the play itself that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats: This is pure, unabashed melodrama -- the kind where the line "Got something to tell you" never introduces good news.
The 1987 play, which won both the Pulitzer and Tony, may not be Wilson's most sophisticated effort -- brace yourself for multiple baseball analogies -- but it's one of his most emotionally effective. And it feels good to be taken for a ride by such a storyteller, especially when the ride is as delicately staged, as gorgeously acted as it is here.
That Washington brings gravitas to the central character of Troy Maxson isn't surprising: A deep-rooted, weighty dignity is the actor's stock in trade. And in the first act, Troy is exactly what we expect from Denzel.
Troy is a solid family man in 1957 Pittsburgh. After 18 years, he remains in lust with his wife, Rose (Viola Davis, from "Doubt"). Their teenage son, Cory (Chris Chalk), dutifully does his household chores. Troy endures his job as a sanitation worker, but at least he's about to become the first black man to go from picking up garbage to driving the truck.
Things haven't always been easy. A stint in jail prevented Troy from raising Lyons (Russell Hornsby), his now-grown son. And while Troy was a fine baseball player, racism confined him to the Negro Leagues. Still, he seems at peace with his life now.
And yet there are fault lines. Troy is put off by Cory's dreams of a football scholarship, and often seeks refuge in tall tales and nostalgia -- which only exacerbates his simmering frustration.
After a first act mostly devoted to exposition, the play takes off and delivers several pathos-laden twists. It's as if Wilson had engaged the turbo on his dramatic engine.
Thankfully, director Kenny Leon and his incredible cast keep a light touch as things get heavy. Branford Marsalis' evocative music adds to the mood without drawing undue attention to itself. The contrast between the somewhat hackneyed developments and the subtlety with which they're handled makes for deeply affecting theater.
This is also where Washington truly shows his worth as an actor, melding into the ensemble and letting his co-stars gain traction. Davis, in particular, transcends the clichéd part of the resilient wife who's the household's real backbone. Look at Rose's face when
Troy gives her shattering news: It literally crumples down in pain.
In the end, the cast's selflessness, dedication and honesty are the best tribute possible to Wilson's play -- which, after all, is about a family.
When Denzel Washington talks about challenging death to a wrestling match, you suddenly sense that everything's going to be all right. Not for Troy Maxson, the character portrayed by Mr. Washington in the vibrantly acted Broadway revival of August Wilson's "Fences," which opened on Monday night at the Cort Theater; Troy might as well have "Warning: Explosives" tattooed across his forehead, with "Breakable" stamped on his back.
But all at once you feel that Mr. Washington is going to take Troy Maxson into dark and uncharted places, which is what he has to do for this mid-80's play to register as more than a conventional domestic melodrama. Delivering that poetic riff, early in the first act, about going mano a mano with the grim reaper, Mr. Washington's Troy morphs from the salty, genial everyman he's thus far appeared to be into a much more arresting figure.
There's an exhilarated craziness in his eyes and a confrontational glint that dares us not to believe him. On the subject of his own life, Troy — a former Negro League baseball star turned sanitation worker, and a man whose name aptly evokes a legendary, ruined splendor — is a first-class mythmaker. Which means he's also a first-class storyteller and a first-class self-deceiver, and that we're going to hang on to his words.
Mr. Washington, a two-time Oscar winner, has his own personal specter to wrestle with in this production, directed by Kenny Leon and featuring a magnificent performance by Viola Davis as Troy's wife, Rose. By starring in the first Broadway revival of "Fences," which picked up about every major prize on offer in 1987, when it arrived on Broadway,
Mr. Washington is stepping into the outsize shadow of James Earl Jones.
Large of frame and thunderous of voice, Mr. Jones has a titan's presence that invested the embittered Troy with an aura of classical tragedy. He was big in every sense of the word, and there was instant pathos in the spectacle of a giant confined by the smallness of a world hedged in by 1950s racism. Mr. Washington has the fluid naturalness we associate with good screen actors, and when he played Brutus in the 2005 Broadway production of "Julius Caesar," he often seemed to fade into the crowd of milling revolutionary Romans.
His Troy, not unexpectedly, is smaller than Mr. Jones's was, but that also means it is on a more human scale and in some ways more intricately drawn. Mr. Washington has to work hard to build his Troy, brick by brick instead of with one overwhelming first impression.
But any strain we sense comes not from the actor but the character.
A family man with a roving eye and a solid breadwinner with unsettling memories of a sports hero's past, Troy is twisted by fiercely contradictory impulses — of love and resentment, gentle judiciousness and brutal irrationality, responsibility and a lust for careless freedom. Registering troubled ambivalence has always been Mr. Washington's great strength as a screen actor (including in his Oscar-winning "Training Day"), and he uses that gift to redefine Troy on his own terms.
This newly detailed reading allows us to look at Troy with fresh objectivity, and to realize that Wilson created a more complex, layered character than we may have remembered. And in his depiction of Troy and Rose's marriage, Wilson, who died in 2005, delivered his finest and most credible portrait of a relationship between a man and a woman, brought to complete, aching life by Mr. Washington and Ms. Davis. But without the distraction of Mr. Jones's Shakespearean grandeur, the play's flaws, as well as its strengths, are more clearly visible.
"Fences" is part of Wilson's great decade-by-decade cycle of the African-American experience in the 20th century, largely set (as "Fences" is) in the Hill District of Pittsburgh. It shares with more adventurous works like "Joe Turner's Come and Gone" and "Seven Guitars" a specific sense of the history that brought its characters to their point in time. That includes handed-down recollections of slavery and more immediate memories of the northward migration from cotton country.
These elements are more in the background in "Fences," and Wilson's use of the soaring, aria-like monologue is more restrained. This is both his most accessible and least inventive work, seemingly shaped by dramaturgical blueprints from the era in which "Fences" is set. As a study in the Oedipal conflict between Troy and his teenage son, Cory (Chris Chalk), who is teetering defensively on the cusp of adulthood, "Fences" has tinny echoes of Arthur Miller and William Inge. Nor can Mr. Leon's expertly fluid direction quite disguise the artificial overuse of some fairly tired symbolic motifs, including baseball and the fences of the title.
But there are scenes as vivid and heartfelt as any on Broadway now. Moving within Santo Loquasto's exactly visualized urban backyard and Constanza Romero's pitch-perfect period costumes, the ensemble members remind us of the rich pleasures of good, old naturalistic acting. More than most of Wilson's plays, "Fences" allows its performers to develop sustained one-on-one relationships.
There's particular pleasure (and sadness) to be had in following the waning friendship between Troy and his longtime pal, Jim Bono (the Wilson veteran Stephen McKinley Henderson, at the top of his form). Mr. Washington's face and stance alone provide fascinating (and damning) glimpses into Troy's attitudes toward his son from an earlier relationship, the 34-year-old Lyons (the excellent Russell Hornsby), and the desperate-to-please Cory (an underwritten part). And while I've pretty much had my fill of Wilson's deranged prophet characters, Mykelti Williamson's Gabriel is fine as Troy's mad brother, eliciting a stirring mix of guilt and affection from Mr. Washington.
But Troy's interactions with Rose are what give "Fences" its moments of genuine glory. Ms. Davis, who won a Tony for her performance in Wilson's "King Hedley II," may well pick up another for her work here. Her face is a poignant paradox, both bone-tired and suffused with sensual radiance. Rose has resigned herself to her life in a way Troy cannot, but that doesn't mean there's not passionate yearning within.
What Troy rants about, Rose keeps to herself, and Ms. Davis draws extraordinary power from that reticence; you never feel that Rose is any less deep than her husband. You can sense, so palpably that it hurts, why Troy and Rose were meant to be together, and when it looked as if the marriage might be going south at the performance I attended, you could hear horrified gasps in the audience. Mr. Washington and Ms. Davis prove that lovers don't have to be as young and star-crossed as Romeo and Juliet to generate shiver-making heat and pathos.
August Wilson's poetry has seldom sounded as prosaic as it does in the new revival of Fences (* * * out of four).
That's not entirely a criticism of this production, which opened Monday at the Cort Theatre and marks Denzel Washington's return to Broadway since a stint as Brutus inJulius Caesar in 2005.
Troy Maxson, Fences' lead character — a middle-aged ex-con and former Negro Leagues baseball champ adjusting to working-class family life, and a changing world, in the 1950s — is as richly drawn as a Shakespearean tragic hero. And the 55-year-old movie star, packing a few extra pounds, brings to the role a convincing combination of rugged physical authority and weariness. We see the weight of social transformation, and his own demons, bearing down on this man.
But Washington's Troy, while vigorous and charismatic, isn't long on nuance; and in that sense it is of a piece with the staging. Directed by Kenny Leon, an experienced and astute purveyor of Wilson's work, this Fences makes the characters' struggles briskly accessible and absorbing, but doesn't always capture their depth and resonance.
This is especially true for Troy and his long-suffering wife, Rose, played by Viola Davis. She and Washington have a lovely, playful chemistry in their early scenes; the mutual attraction and affection that has helped sustain this couple couldn't be more obvious.
Davis is less effective in showing us the toll that Troy's transgressions have taken on Rose. We see her pain when Troy confronts her with a real whopper in the second act; but her subsequent monologue — which the actress delivers, like many lines, in a hyper-naturalistic style that rushes and at times flattens the distinctive music of Wilson's language — doesn't fully convey Rose's unfussy dignity and resilience.
As Troy and Rose's son, Cory, whose own athletic ambitions complicate an already uneasy relationship with his dad, Chris Chalk can be similarly breathless, though it suits Cory's youthful zeal. Russell Hornsby plays Troy's son from a previous marriage with a sly, rueful swagger that makes him duly sympathetic, while Mykelti Williamson is poignant as Troy's brother, a brain-damaged war veteran.
The most textured performance, not surprisingly, comes from the masterful Wilson interpreter Stephen McKinley Henderson. He plays Troy's best buddy with an understated authority that can be overshadowed by the others' more flamboyant antics.
The leading man has no such problems. Though Washington may not portray Troy's spiritual quandaries as completely or hauntingly as others have, he makes his story compelling.
And he'll surely introduce that story to fans who will seek out other Wilson plays — a happy ending by any measure.

|Hi i just bought a miracle plant. Basically it requires the soil to be at a ph of 4.5-5.6. Every website i look up about fertilization of them says use miracid which is a synthetic fertilizer for acid loving plant. My question is if i use a regular fertilizer and then add 1-2 tablespoons of vinegar per gallon would this also make it a fertilizer for acid loving plants? i am asking on these forums because they also require acidic soil.
Follow-Up Postings:
|I would continue to think of them separately (a fertilizer + an amendment) instead of as a single item ("a fertilizer for acid loving plants"). Personally, I would not consider vinegar as something that makes the soil more fertile but rather as an amendment that makes the soil more acidic.
By the way, it is quite late to be fertilizing in Zone 5. Fertilizers, especially those high in nitrogen (Miracid) can keep the plants in 'growth' mode at a time when they should be going dormant. Early frosts could suddenly hit and kill tender new growth. Most potting medium already contains those round fertilizer pellets so I would consider fertilizing beginning in Spring 2010.
- Posted by mainegrower Z5b ME (My Page) on Fri, Oct 2, 09 at 6:02
|Miracid is a heavily advertised but not terribly good fertilizer for acid soil plants - its effects are very short lived. Hollytone is a much better choice. There is also an important difference between a fertilizer which makes its nutrients available at low soil pH and a soil which is acid. Depending on the natural pH, soil can be acidified by adding quantities of organic matter with an acid reaction - partially decomposed bark is my first choice although many people use peat moss. Once the soil is acidified a fertilizer such as Hollytone is highly effective. Forget the vinegar.
- Posted by kurite 5 (email@example.com) on Fri, Oct 2, 09 at 16:26
|Sorry i left out some info. Im growing it as a houseplant. And i wanted hollytone but i am suppose to use a liquid fertilizer.
|I woud repot florist azaleas in a different pot from the one that they come in and I would also keep a close watch on soil moisture because azaleas do not do well indoors. Maybe it is the lack of humidity or high indoor temps. If the potting medium is something special then I would repot when the company recommends that you replace the potting medium. At some point, I would switch to Holly Tone, say when they recommend repotting or replacing the potting soil. The only thing that I have been able to grow well inside are tropicals and (for only 1.5 years only) and a named gardenia variety.

|"Miracle plant" is not an azalea :-) It is a tropical plant, Synsepalum dulcificum, that requires indoor care in colder climates and acidic growing conditions. For a houseplant, Miracid (or MiracleGro for Acid Lovers) is a perfectly reasonable fertilizer and is recommended in this link. You do NOT want to add vinegar to water and use regular MG - it is NOT the same :-) Miracid will supply specific nutrients that acid lovers require that may be bound in less than ideal soils or missing in plain MG.
Organic fertilizers tend to be rather ineffective for houseplants or in container growing situations - this concept has been explained to the OP in detail in various other forums - so it is far more efficient to use water soluble synthetics to supply necessary nutrients. Hollytone won't work.

Shumlin's peculiar facts'September 19,2013On Sept. 5, Gov. Peter Shumlin gave a televised interview to Steve Pappas, editor of the Times Argus. The bulk of it dealt with the new health insurance exchange and its scheduled successor, Green Mountain Care. As usual, the governor appeared articulate and well informed.
The problem is that the information Shumlin hands out often bears only a tenuous relationship to the truth.
Shumlin offered as an important reason for moving into single-payer health care the inability of hospitals to share patient data and diagnostic results. A single-payer system, he said, would solve this problem.
He cited a Fletcher Allen patient who subsequently went to Dartmouth-Hitchcock, which proposed to run the tests all over again because they (allegedly) couldnt obtain the previous test results from Fletcher Allen.
But why do we need Green Mountain Care to solve this problem? In 2008, when Shumlin was Senate leader, the Legislature passed a law (Act 192) that authorized a health information technology (HIT) plan to create an integrated electronic health information infrastructure for the sharing of electronic health information among health care facilities, health care professionals, public and private payers, and patients.
The Legislature also levied a new tax of 0.199 of 1 percent of health insurance claims to pay for implementing the plan. Three years into this program the HIT plan required even more money, so in 2011 the Legislature (many of whose members regularly intone that health insurance is not affordable) quadrupled the tax rate on claims, which Shumlin signed into law.
But now, five years into this program, the governor says we need a new multibillion-dollar single-payer plan to somehow make the providers share medical information that Vermonters have already spent millions of dollars in higher premiums to make possible.
Shumlin again invoked his mantra of health care is a right, not a privilege. He may believe that health care ought to be a right, but it simply is not. Even the Democratic Legislature that approved Shumlins landmark health care bill (Act 48 of 2011) stopped short of declaring health care to be a right, describing it only a public good (which it also is not).
Shumlin then stated that Americans born today are projected to live less long than their parents. Unless somebody is projecting an asteroid impact, this is obviously false. According to the World Bank, using U.S. government data, American children born today can expect to live 78.64 years. Their parents in 1990 could expect 75.22 years; every cohort before that expected even fewer years of life.
Shumlin let loose this whopper: American health care costs are 300 to 400 times the spending of other developed countries. Lets assume Shumlin was referring to per-person spending. According to the OECD, Americans (public and private) in 2009 spent $7,960 per person, which is two and half times the OECD average of $3,283 per person.
To get a fantastic multiplier like 300 or 400, one would have to match Americas total health care spending with that of with some very small developed country say Estonia, with a population 0.4 of a percent of ours.
In the same interview, on another topic, Shumlin averred that Vermont Yankee would require 300 employees for five or six years after shutting down in October 2014; thus there would be no catastrophic jobs cliff in the local economy.
According to experts in nuclear plant decommissioning, the real employment number will be around 300 during the first year after Vermont Yankees shutdown, and fewer than 100 after two years. These will mostly be guards and plumbers, not high-income executives and engineers.
Its not uncommon for politicians to play fast and loose with facts. But few play so fast and loose, with such seeming sincerity, as Peter Shumlin. This could lead to a credibility problem.

If matcha were wine, this blend is a Romanée Conti—it simply doesn't get much better.
The first thing you notice is the creamy body and smooth mouthfeel that resembles a perfectly pulled espresso. The color is hallucinogenic bright green. It has sweet aromas redolent of fresh young grass, young bamboo, raw sugar, and chlorophyll. It has the ethereal vegetal notes of just-picked asparagus and sweet peas on the vine, balanced by earthier, umami-laden undertones of perfectly grilled mushrooms. Mid-palate shows "essence of fresh," a real floral lift, and layers of meaty richness.
The catechin-rich, subtly astringent treble notes on the finish bear remarkable similarity to those of a great Burgundy. The finish is long; it keeps delivering these sweet flavors long after it's swallowed. Turns all previous expectations and experience with matcha on its head. It earns a perfect 100 score—there is nowhere to go but down from these rarefied heights.
Origin: Nishio, Aichi Prefecture (near Nagoya), Japan. Elevated growing region, very pristine environment, incredible terroir. One of the rarest, and most delightful, epicurean experiences in the world.

I had no idea that matcha could be so rich and complex. This matcha is more like a rich broth than tea. It's also creamy, not astringent in the least. In short, I've never had anything like it, and half an hour later, my body felt sort of tingly and vibrant. Magical stuff.
Posted by Steve Self on 23rd Jan 2013
In addition to all the notes on tasting that Eric has shared in the introduction, I find this matcha astounding. There is nothing to hold on to as the elements of flavor and aroma shift and smooth and extend. This matcha is equal to the most sophisticated palate... More profoundly, is my attention and awareness equal to the lofty possibility that this matcha can provide. It seems to start infinitely subtle and move smoothly to an equally infinite extension. Amazing.
Posted by Britt on 23rd Jan 2013
If you're a tea drinker you need to try Breakaway Matcha. If you've tried matcha, this is the end game. I stumbled across matcha at a local tea shop and immediately enjoyed the preparation, taste, and the 'up' of matcha. It's the alertness and mental clarity without the caffeine feeling. I start every day with a cup. All of the matcha here is the best you can find, with the the Blend 100 being my favorite. Its' smooth drinking with a hint of sweetness that stays with you. There is a moment of "wow" and just opening the bag gives a off a springtime smell. Its 100% green-goodness. Super happy with the product and service, going on my second year drinking this.
Posted by Rita Hurault on 22nd Jan 2013
I am a fan of Blend 97 and decided to try the best. Well, my, my. Superbly creamy, brilliantly green, with complexity, depth and finish that completely changed my understanding of what green tea could be. It is a cup to savor and linger over. A deep bow to Eric for bringing high quality matcha to my world.
Posted by David Gans on 22nd Jan 2013
Ever since Eric Gower introduced us to Breakaway Matcha, our beverage rituals have changed. There is great pleasure in the preparation, and of course in consuming this bright green and frothy treat! We still love our coffee and traditional herb teas, but we have made room in our lives for Breakaway Matcha for both the fun and the health of it.

For $2400, a wheelset should have the best everything money could buy, and be delivered to your house by Monk, who then installs them for you and rebuilds your bike while he's at it. Then when he's done, he should hand you a check for the $1000 they owe you. $250 for a rim replacement program? I'm guessing that pretty much covers Reynold's cost on two new rims.

I was wondering about the Horst Link patent status, when I looked up the design date (1980), I suddenly felt very old. I wasn't saying it's a bad design or these will be bad bikes. In fact, I know it is the opinion of many well informed suspension engineers that horst link is still the best design. Just thought it was funny too see them talking about it like it's something new, although you can say that about 99% of mtb marketing.

Added a comment about product review Tested: Kore Durox Wheelset 9/19/2014 8:32 PM
Remember when 800 dollars was as much money as you could spend on a wheelset? Way way back in 2009 or so. $850 for this, are you kidding me? I think because ENVEs cost the GDP of a small central american country, everyone thinks they can price their wheels in multiples of 1000 now. 800 dollars still buys you a handbuilt wheelset with Hadley/King/ or DT hubs, DT champion spokes, and whatever rim you feel like. And those wheels will be better than absolutely anything else on the market, in pretty much every way. 5 years ago this wheelset would have been 400 dollars, and people wouldn't have bought it then either. Nice try.

For sure you can expect a little more carnage and raggedness at worlds, today it just bit a few more than usual out of the contenders. I was right there with you hoping Neko would hold on to it. Personally I think the #1 plate means a lot more than the rainbow jersey. Champions should be crowned based on a series, not one roll of the dice.

Not to say Gee didn't deserve it, but his run wasn't that great either with that big bobble. Usually you need perfection to win worlds.

This compares reasonably well to a Demo 8 II at 4600, although I would go with the specialized for the weight and the warranty.

Actually I would say they're all copies of the Ventana El Cuervo design that have been tweaked.

This is correct. I'm not sure about their newer stuff, but for many moons, Transition has been strictly a taiwanese catalog company. But it's totally rider owned bro.

Unfortunately some of the advice from our European friends comes from places where the sport is not languishing quite so badly. It all depends on the level where you're going to end up. Most mid level pro teams these days are basically just collections ... more »

I'm not entirely uninterested, but after racing for 16 years you start to realize that it's just a bike. What's more interesting about a carpenter, his tools or his products? Gwin didn't go 3.5 sec up at the first split because his bike was 254.2 grams lighter or because of the size of his wheels, he did it because he's probably the greatest downhill racer in history. Knowing what a grizzled old bastard Woo is, I think he might understand where I'm coming from. Equipment is an important part of the sport, I just grow weary of central position it seems to take in the attention of the community. Go contrast the forums on Vital MX vs Vital MTB, and see the how many threads are about equipment vs riding and racing. Here it's probably 10 to 1, there it's 1 to 10. Seems out of whack to me. Hope that clears up my feelings on the issue.

The assessment of me as "bitter" is pretty fair and accurate, although "defeated" might be slightly better. I have watched the sport I love, downhill, basically die over my 10 year DH career. The nationals died, the MSC died, and half the great american DH tracks have been reclaimed by their hills, to be replaced by bike park trails you could do on a DJ bike. Enduro is a sad replacement that sucks to watch and to race, contrived to sell more 6" trail bikes. I know a few high level guys who like it, and I know some high level pro enduro riders who do it only because they have to to continue to have a career. Among the rank and file pro DH riders that I know, it is all but universally loathed. I am hoping to go back home to the East this summer and hopefully re-find some of the joy I used to have in downhilling, when the tracks were steep, the rocks were slick, and men were men. If it's not there, that will probably be it for me until something turns around. DH racing has been the greatest experience of my life, and it's too heartbreaking to watch it continue to decline into a shadow of it's former self.
