Hi Signet, I am interested in daylilies but I doubt that I would have a collection that would come close to yours. My trade list is not current but I will come up with a list of possibilities this weekend. AM |
Hi AmCorrigan Wonderful I am thrilled that you are willing to trade . I should mention however that the trade would be a tad later in the season as I already have scapes and buds on a number of my cultivars . So If I were to dig now , it would affect my chances of blooms this season which in turn would affect my seed harvest . You wouldnt likely get any blooms either . April would have been an ideal time to dig or if I had known I could have potted up earlier . I wasnt expecting to see scapes quite this early . I would be willing to trade in August however as blooms will for the most part be done . The season is early this year so I am sure August would be a good time to dig ....daylilies need 6 weeks to settle in and so even mid/late September or very , very early October would be ok to dig in the city ( October , to me , living out in the country though is a stretch as it would depend on what the season does .....it has started early , will it end early too? ) Anyway I would love to hear what you have to trade and let's talk .....see what we can work out . Thanks |
Hi Signet I would be interested in trading with you later this summer. I can send you pictures of some of the ones I have to see if you're interested. I have 4 large flowered beautiful ones that I grew from seed received in a trade that were supposed to be white x's….turned out ruffled pale yellow, light pink with yellow throat, etc. They are very pretty, but unnamed. I also purchased several from Vesey's over the past couple of years that will hopefully bloom this year so that I will know for sure that they are the right ones. (Have had mislabelled plants from them in the past) I can take pictures for you as the season progresses and send them your way later this summer. Let me know when you have a chance and if you would like to see some of the pictures from previous years, I can send them to you. Do you have a list of the ones that you will have available to trade? Thanks, |
Hi all, I am writing here as I am not sure if my emails to people are going thru . So Amcorrigan and Kelly , yes I am interested and if you will write an email to me I will reply via my private email which still seems to be working. Thanks for understanding |
Hi There Sent you an e-mail with some pictures! Let me know if you can open them okay. Will take more as the little darlings open their smiling faces. Happy Gardening and looking forward to trading this summer. Kelly |
Hi Kellyrae, I was able to open the pics and yes you have some lovely ones ! I would love to see other pics as they become available. I will save some pics so you can see what I have to trade too ! |
My daylilies are starting to bloom! I'll try to post some pictures for you soon. Kelly |
Hi Signet, just wanted to let you know that the daylilies I got from you in trade last year are doing great and many have bloomed already. Most are in part shade so are probably slower growing than they would be in full sun. Thanks again for the great trade. ontnative |
Hi Ontnative, So glad to hear the daylilies I traded to you did well . THe ones I got from you are doing fantastically well and bloomed there little hearts out this season but are done now ( season here was 3 weeks early) I am watching closely to see we I get rebloom . Many of my daylilies that are not registered as rebloomers are sending up new scapes! Woo Hoo ! If you ever want to trade again I would be most pleased to trade with you . All the best Signet |
I have a few daylilies and would like to trade with you. I sent you an email. Chris |
Finally I am back on the net. I have been unable to access Gardenweb since switching to a new server. I finally got someone to listen to me and they have made whatever adjustments and when I tried again tonight to access garden web , I was granted access. Whoo Hoo! . So Kellyrae if you still want to do a swap ....email me asap. Thanks to Chris for the swap .....glad you emailed me cuz I was unable to see your message till now . Hope the daylilies do well for you . I planted the one you sent and it is doing well . Signet |

Cold snaps and polar vortices have been dropping temperatures down to single digits (ºF) lately, forming these lovely sheens of frost on the car windshield; it almost seems a shame to have to scrape them off. (And at least once the frost was on the inside.)
Twelfth Winter
The snow started out picturesque, dry flakes coating the business parks and parking lots of suburban North Virginia. It wasn't quite as picturesque the next day, and thawing and refreezing turned the parking lots into skating rinks. Then came the Polar Vortex (fortunately after a relatively warm rain and melt that removed the parking lot […]
Haiyan Updates
This Christmas, spare a thought for those in the Philippines still reeling from Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda last month, and for all who suffer hunger, oppression, loneliness, and want. More material on the typhoon to add to my original Haiyan post:
The snowstorm started while we were at church in DC two Sundays back, big wet flakes leaving a dusting on the ground by the White House. I used my new iPhone 5s to try and get slow motion clips of the snowflakes as they fell. Later in the day the snow changed to sleet and […]
Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda): Ships Aground and Ways to Help
An email I sent for distribution at my church, First Baptist DC, answering queries about typhoon relief contribution opportunities for fellow Baptists here in the USA after Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda. Following the call for donations I've also included a gallery of ships run aground during the typhoon, a display of the fury of the storm.
Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda)
Typhoon Haiyan (PAGASA name Yolanda) struck the Philippines on November 7th, devastating islands in the Visayas, flattening whole towns and villages, and killing thousands. With sustained winds of 195 mph and gusts up to 235 mph, it was the strongest tropical cyclone on record to make landfall.
Snow to Slush to Mud
I took these three photos within five days of each other, from Jan 25 to Jan 30, 2013, at the outlet of Rock Creek and the C&O Canal to the Potomac River. (The outlet, a "gate to the water," so to speak, gave rise to the name of those famous buildings in the background.) We […]
Hurricane Sandy
Sandy was an epic storm: a tropical cyclone interacting with a strong Northeaster, a kinked jet stream, warm Atlantic waters, and a full moon, all combining into a massive tropical — and later post-tropical — cyclone that veered west from the Atlantic into the East Coast, hitting the northeast US hard with strong wind, heavy […]
"Snowmageddon" 2010
In February of 2010, warm water from a moderate Pacific El Niño fed moisture to a south-shifted jet stream, which brought the moisture into contact with a strong, cold, negative Arctic Oscillation over the Eastern United States — which for us meant snow, and lots of it. In what would be variously termed "Snowmageddon," "Snowpocalypse," […]
Snowstorm of Dec. 2009
Dec. 19th brought a historic snowstorm to the DC area, dumping almost two feet of snow in our immediate locality in North Virginia and surpassing in overall impact even the Feb 2003 snowstorm in Baltimore. We were pretty much snowed in for that whole weekend, but we did venture outside to survey conditions for a […]

Anti-reflux surgery
Anti-reflux surgery
Anti-reflux surgery is surgery to correct a problem with the muscles at the bottom of the esophagus (the tube from your mouth to the stomach). Problems with these muscles allow gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) to happen.
This surgery can also repair a hiatal hernia.
Thelatest Flash Player 9,0,115,0is available for download @ adobe.com.
Alternative Names
Fundoplication; Nissen fundoplication; Belsey (Mark IV) fundoplication; Toupet fundoplication; Thal fundoplication; Hiatal hernia repair; Endoluminal fundoplication
GERD is a condition that causes food or stomach acid to come back up from your stomach into your esophagus. This is called gastroesophageal reflux. It can cause heartburn and other uncomfortable symptoms. Reflux occurs if the muscles where the esophagus meets the stomach do not close tightly enough.
A hiatal hernia occurs when the natural opening in your diaphragm from your esophagus is too large. Your diaphragm is the muscle and tissue layer between your chest and belly. Your stomach may bulge through this opening into your chest. This bulging is called a hiatal hernia. It may make GERD symptoms worse.
A procedure called fundoplication is the most common type of anti-reflux surgery. During this procedure, your surgeon will:
- First repair the hiatal hernia with stitches. The surgeon will tighten the opening in your diaphragm to keep your stomach from bulging through.
- Some surgeons place a piece of mesh in the repaired area to make it more secure.
- Your surgeon will then use stitches to wrap the upper part of your stomach around the end of your esophagus. This creates pressure at the end of your esophagus and helps prevent stomach acid and food from flowing back up.
Surgery is done while you are under general anesthesia (asleep and pain-free). Surgery usually takes 2 - 3 hours.
Ways your doctor may do this surgery are:
- Open repair. Your surgeon will make a surgical cut in your belly area (abdomen). Sometimes the surgeon will place a tube from your stomach through the abdomen wall to keep your stomach in place. This tube will be removed when you no longer need it.
- Laparoscopic repair: Your surgeon will make 3 - 5 small cuts in your belly. Your surgeon will insert a laparoscope (a thin, hollow tube with a tiny camera on the end) through one of these cuts and other tools through the other cuts. The laparoscope is connected to a video monitor in the operating room that allows your surgeon to see inside your belly and do the repair. The surgeon may need to switch to an open procedure if there is bleeding, a lot of scar tissue from earlier surgeries, or you are very overweight.
Endoluminal fundoplication is a new procedure that is done to help prevent reflux. It uses a special camera on a flexible tool called an endoscope that is passed down through your mouth and into your esophagus.
Your doctor will place small clips on the inside where the esophagus meets the stomach. These clips help prevent food or stomach acid from backing up.
Why the Procedure Is Performed
Your doctor may suggest surgery when:
- You have symptoms of heartburn that get better when you use medicines, but you do not want to keep taking these medicines. Symptoms of heartburn are: burning in the stomach that you may also feel in your throat or chest, burping or gas bubbles, or trouble swallowing food or fluids.
- Part of your stomach is getting stuck in your chest or is twisting around itself. This is called a para-esophageal hernia.
- You have gastroesophageal reflux disease that is causing another serious problem. Some of these problems include strictures (a narrowing of your esophagus), ulcers in your esophagus, and bleeding in your esophagus.
- You have gastroesophageal reflux disease and aspiration pneumonia (a lung infection caused by breathing the stomach contents into the lungs), a chronic cough, or hoarseness.
Risks of any anesthesia are:
- Breathing problems, including pneumonia
- Heart problems
- Reactions to medicines
Risks of any surgery are:
- Bleeding
- Infection
Risks of this surgery are:
- Breathing complications, such as a collapsed lung. This is rare.
- Damage to the stomach, esophagus, liver, or small intestine. This is very rare.
- Gas bloat, which makes it hard to burp or throw up. It also causes bloating after meals. These symptoms slowly get better for most people.
- Pain and difficulty when you swallow. This is called dysphagia. In most people, this goes away during the first 3 months after surgery.
- Return of the hiatal hernia
Before the Procedure
Your doctor may ask you to have these tests:
- Blood tests (complete blood count, electrolytes, or liver tests)
- Esophageal manometry (to measure gases) or pH monitoring (to see how much stomach acid is in your esophagus)
- Upper endoscopy. Almost all people who have this procedure have already had this test. If you have not had this test, you will need to.
- X-rays of the esophagus
Always tell your doctor or nurse if:
- You could be pregnant
- You are taking any drugs, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription
During the week before your surgery:
- You may be asked to stop taking aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), vitamin E, clopidogrel (Plavix), warfarin (Coumadin), and any other drugs or supplements that affect blood clotting several days to a week before surgery.
- Ask your doctor which drugs you should still take on the day of your surgery.
On the day of your surgery:
- Do not eat or drink anything after midnight the night before your surgery.
- Take the drugs your doctor told you to take with a small sip of water.
- Shower the night before or the morning of your surgery.
Your doctor or nurse will tell you when to arrive at the hospital.
After the Procedure
Patients who have laparoscopic surgery usually spend 1 - 3 days in the hospital. Those who have open surgery may spend 2 - 6 days in the hospital after the procedure.
Most patients go back to work 2 - 3 weeks after laparoscopic surgery and 4 - 6 weeks after open surgery.

Outlook (Prognosis)
Anti-reflux surgery is a safe operation. Heartburn and other symptoms should improve after surgery. But some people still need to take drugs for heartburn after surgery.
Some people will need another surgery in the future to treat new reflux symptoms or swallowing problems. This may happen if the stomach was wrapped around the esophagus too tightly, the wrap loosens, or a new hiatal hernia develops.

OKAY, CONFESSION TIME. (God, I feel like I'm always confessing! So much latent guilt!) I love a good breezy tank top as much as the next human being with temperature receptors, but honestly, I don't necessarily feel like shaving my armpits every day in the summer. I also personally (PERSONALLY! YOU DO YOU!) don't like the look of my unshaven underarms, which places me in quite the quandary indeed. Will I bro out in a tank top with my stubbly armpits, or will I wear a long-sleeved shirt and sweat out all day? There ought to be some happy medium — and, duh, there is. A good short-sleeved summer tee is not to be underestimated, and there's certainly no dearth of cute ones. Here are 10 that I would like to see magically appear in my closet right now…

I had the pleasure of working with Gary as board members for our HOA. He took over the sometimes thankless job of board president with grace and determination. Gary was a gentleman who was always calm, willing, and helpful in spite of his, now obvious, challenges. I wish we had spent more time together. I was going to teach him to play the banjo!
Farewell Gary Altunian
I first met Gary in the early 1990s when he was National Training Manager for Yamaha Electronics. I was just beginning my career as a journalist in consumer electronics (I had previously covered pro audio), and he helped me with my coverage of Yamaha CE products. We became friends and then colleagues when he left Yamaha in 2003 to pursue his own career as a freelance audio journalist. He was an excellent and conscientious writer, and I hired him whenever I could to contribute to whatever magazine or website I was working on at the time.
I was particularly impressed that Gary went to the trouble of building false walls in his home studio, which allowed him to install and review in-wall speakers without damaging the room itself. That's rare dedication, which led many editors to assign him such reviews. Of course, his excellent ears and writing skills didn't hurt, either!
The most memorable assignment I gave him was to help cover the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show for UAV. It was his twentieth CES (not counting the summer show that used to be held in Chicago each June), and he provided superb coverage with some great color-commentary posts as well as hard news about audio products. My favorite was "My Friend Bob" about stopping for lunch at Bob's Big Boy in Victorville, CA, on his way to Vegas.
I was also impressed by Gary's insatiable thirst for knowledge. Even though he was primarily an audio guy, he took the 3-day THX video-training course, which required him to complete eight TV calibrations after the course itself was finished. Twice, he drove all the way from Oceanside (near San Diego) to Burbanka 2-hour trip each wayto perform these calibrations at our testing lab, where we had plenty of TVs to work on. I was happy to help him in this task, after which we enjoyed a good meal together.
Gary was always upbeat and positive, even in the face of a devastating disease. He always had a smile on his lips and a joke at the ready, and I valued our friendship greatly. He deserved far better than the hand he was dealt, and I shall miss him terribly.
I invite and encourage anyone who knew Gary to post a comment here in tribute to his memory.
Gary was a very kind and generous person. As a consumer electronics journalist, he was always very professional and very knowledgeable in the world of audio, as well as video. We got together regularly to cover trade shows, such as CES and CEDIA, where we had some interesting adventures, and we also collaborated on some product reviews. In the few short years I have known him, he became a great friend and fantastic colleague. I will miss him greatly, both personally and professionally.
Robert Silva
Gary has been a friend for so many years and this was very difficult news for us to hear as we had spent quite a lot of time with him at CES and he looked fabulous and said that he was done with his latest treatments and was doing fine. It must have changed right after the show.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family of which he always talked about with such joy.
Rest in peace Gary - you are going to be missed so very much.
Thank you for sharing this tribute. As a PR guy, I had the good fortune to work with Gary on many reviews as well as at trade shows. As you say, he was one of the few dedicated enough to tackle in-walls, but my lasting memory will be just talking music with him in the halls of the Venetian during CES.
RIP Gary, you will be missed.
I was shocked to hear the terrible news. All I can say is that we need more people like Gary around, and am sad to hear that we lost him. He has always been kind, patient, thorough, generous and good-humored, even through his health battles.
Gary, I miss you already...
Tony Grimani
I always enjoyed spending time with Gary at tradeshows or for product reviews. In an age where bloggers and reviewers focus more on snarky commentary than real substance, Gary delivered stories and reviews that demonstrated his passion for movies and music, as well as helping people decide what to buy.
We need more guys like Gary who do the job because they love the gear and they love what it brings to our lives. He'll be missed.
Graham McKenna
Gracenote, Inc.(formerly at THX)
I had the pleasure of first knowing Gary as a fine journalist and then the privilege of knowing him as a friend.
Without question, Gary was a true professional and took what he did seriously and passionately. Yet he never took himself too seriously and that was his real charm.
I will miss Gary as an industry colleague, working with him on the many wonderful reviews he did for my clients. And I will surely miss his smiling face at trade shows where he was always eager to see and hear the latest.
Most of all, I will miss him greatly as a friend and in fact, I already do.
Peter Hoagland
I met Gary through email and phone when I was editor at Digital TV magazine (back in '03-04) and hired him regularly thanks in no part to his technical expertise and easy-to-understand writing style. The fact that he was always highly professional as well as enjoyable to talk with made it that much easier to work with him.
I finally met Gary in person last year when he reviewed one of our products that I helped deliver and setup. Throughout all his personal experience, he maintained that same level of professionalism and amiability that I had known at Digital TV. He will be missed.
As so many have noted, Gary was a stellar journalist, a true CE enthusiast, and just a great guy to spend time with at trade events, company dinners and whenever I was lucky enough to cross paths with him. His love of his work was wholly transparent, and I was thrilled when, early on in his battle, it looked like he had won. It was always a pleasure to speak with him about every subject under the sun, especially audio. Now I just feel gypped.
Rest easy friend.
I first met Gary when he was the Training Mgr. at Yamaha, and he dealt with the press. He was a really nice guy, and very helpful in making me understand all of Yamaha's surround processing technologies. Back in the 1980's Yamaha was quite innovative in surround sound, and Gary made it very easy to understand. While we never hung out together, I would always see him at CEDIA and CES in later years. I even ran into him this past January 2011 at CES. He was always friendly and had a good word to say. He will be missed by all in the industy who knew him.
I feel fortunate to have worked with Gary on many reviews and articles over the years. He was a thoughtful and professional reviewer, an entertaining writer, and he had a great sense of humor. Like Scott, I remember being amazed when Gary actually built walls to review in-wall speakers. It seemed so 'above and beyond the call of duty' at the time, but Gary couldn't imagine doing it any other way. I'm going to miss that rich voice on the other end of the phone.
Gordon Sell
We were terribly saddened to hear about Gary's passing
We have lost a valued and experienced voice in our industry.
We first worked with Gary when he helped bring ISF trainings to Yamaha staff. He absolutely loved tweaking everything to perfection.
Gary and I were both chagrined to see the CMS and video processing on Yamaha DLP so far ahead of its time that the market was not ready for it - now of course those features are expected - and Gary saw it all unfold.
I will miss him.......

Hand-foot-mouth disease
Hand-foot-mouth disease
Hand-foot-mouth disease is a relatively common infection viral infection that usually begins in the throat.
A similar infection is herpangina.
Alternative Names
Coxsackievirus infection
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) is most commonly caused by coxsackievirus A16, a member of the enterovirus family.
The disease is not spread from pets, but it can be spread by person to person. You may catch it if you come into direct contact with nose and throat discharges, saliva, fluid from blisters, or the stools of an infected person. You are most contagious the first week you have the disease.
The time between infection and the development of symptoms is about 3 - 7 days.
The most important risk factor is age. The infection occurs most often in children under age 10, but can be seen in adolescents and occasionally adults. The outbreaks occur most often in the summer and early fall.
- Fever
- Headache
- Loss of appetite
- Rash with very small blisters on hands, feet, and diaper area; may be tender or painful if pressed
- Sore throat
- Ulcers in the throat (including tonsils), mouth, and tongue
Signs and tests
A history of recent illness and a physical examination, demonstrating the characteristic vesicles on the hands and feet, are usually sufficient to diagnose the disease.
There is no specific treatment for the infection other than relief of symptoms.
Treatment with antibiotics does not work and is not recommended. Over-the-counter medicines, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen can be used to treat fever. Aspirin should not be used in viral illnesses in children under age 12 years.
Salt water mouth rinses (1/2 teaspoon of salt to 1 glass of warm water) may be soothing if the child is able to rinse without swallowing. Make sure your child gets plenty of fluids. Extra fluid is needed when a fever is present. The best fluids are cold milk products. Many children refuse juices and sodas because their acid content causes burning pain in the ulcers.
Expectations (prognosis)
Generally, complete recovery occurs in 5 to 7 days.
- Dehydration
- Febrile seizures
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if there are signs of complications, such as pain in neck or arms and legs. Emergency symptoms include convulsions.
You should also call if:
- Medicine does not lower a high fever
- Signs of dehydration occur:
- Dry skin and mucus membranes
- Weight loss
- Irritability
- Lethargy
- Decreased or dark urine
Avoid contact with people with known illness. Always wash your hands well and often, especially if you are in contact with people who are sick.

so the errata changed the retreat rules but I still have a couple of questions.
First, is retreat mandatory? the original booklet says sometimes that it is and on other times that the attacker 'can force' the defender to retreat. We understood it to mean that the attacker can decide whether or not to force a retreat - and that has been a pretty important strategic choice. However, the fan rules on BGG say that retreat is mandatory. What is the official calling on this?
Second, and more importantly, the errata says that retreats are now always directional. However, the fan rules on BGG say that retreat is only directional for melee attacks and that in the case of ranged attacks, retreat as it says in the original rulebook. Is that the case? and if that's the case and traditional retreat apply in cases of ranged attacks - who decides where does a unit retreats? Say a Stark archer targets a Lannister rider and forces a retreat. Now the rider has to retreat towards the Lannister side of the board - but there are two hexes that are in that direction. If both of them are empty, and retreat is mandatory, who gets to decide where does the rider go, attacker or defender?

BALI, Indonesia (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says talks on a trans-Pacific trade pact are forging ahead despite President Barack Obama's absence due to the government shutdown.
Both Kerry and U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman said Saturday that ministers working to put together a framework for the trading bloc still hoped to meet a self-imposed year-end deadline for reaching agreement.
Obama had intended to thrash out issues with leaders of the 11 other TPP member countries on the sidelines of the Asian-Pacific regional summit in Bali on Monday and Tuesday.
Obama considers the trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP, a vital part of his focus on Asia and for job creation back in the U.S.
The TPP includes Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, United States and Vietnam.

I was reading Calin's post and had an idea. We should do a material swap. I have some really great things laying around that I haven't gotten around to using. Maybe if we get a simple package in the mail w/some odds and ends - it would bump up our supply and inspire us to do something new!!!! What do you think? |

Its been done here before, everyone enjoyed it. They used a standard flat rate box and stuffed it full. |
- Posted by a.girl.named.max (My Page) on Mon, Jan 10, 11 at 10:42
Can you give some examples of the odds and ends? |
I'm in. Just decide on the size of the flat rate box. Medium is a good size; I think that medium flat rate costs about $10.40 to mail. I like these exchanges best when we have a general idea what the recipient likes (flowers, the color, broken plates, stained glass, tile, etc.). I have lots of all of it. |
Sounds like fun....and I agree a general idea of what the recipient likes or works most with would be very helpful and make a better box to receive. Count me in. On the garden junk site there is gonna be a spring fling.....so much fun is about to get started. |
@ a girl named max - I was thinking glass, ceramic, beads, ect. Anything laying around you haven't used yet and you think someone would love. Having an idea of what people like is good. I have never planned one of these. So - do we just get a list of who is in then swap some addresses? I do not know everyone here very well so do we add a wish list to our names, or a description of what we work with/would like to work with? |
- Posted by wackyweeder (My Page) on Tue, Jan 11, 11 at 10:10
Odds and ends-anything someone might potentially use as tesserae-old marbles, jewelry pieces, fancy pebbles,cup handles, beads, plastic childrens toys,salt and pepper shakers,nuts bolts, old locks and keys,small magnets,bottle caps,practically anything! In the past when this was done, once the details were worked out, whoever was coordinating would post a thread for sign up. That person would be sent the addresses and dole them out at the proper time. Also, when this was done before it was decided that no preferences be listed so the person might receive materials that would stretch their creativity in new ways. Im just providing suggestions for ya'll-you can totally do a whole new thing! |
I also like the idea of no preferences. So many people requested that, I think, so as to make sure to get stuff we can use. I have not worked with a lot of material as I am newish and dont spend as much time on my mosaics. And honestly, am afraid of methods or materials I have never used. But I could always use a challenge. Either way works for me. I am getting excited - and I already have a box 1/2 packed. So if you want I will organize. |
Fabulous! Thanks so much for volunteering, Astara. Just tell us what size box and I will start packing. I myself prefer the medium flat rate box but will go with the majority. Last time we did this we all mailed, opened, and posted pictures around the same time so it was a party on here. Can't wait! |
Thanks for volunteering to organize this new adventure Astra. Any size box works for me and I'm gonna start my collection immediately. Was planning a trip to the TS this afternoon anyway.....so now I have a good reason to drop in there. They usually have do-able jewelery parts as well as who nows what!! Woo-Hoo let the fun begin!!! |
Gotta come up with a good name to refer to this exchange. Lotta loot.......Traveling supplies.......Spring Share.....Moving Goods. I kinda like Spring Share...but I'm sure more suggestions will be submitted. |
I like Spring Share and Lotta loot! Good names, I would have been boring and just said - "Material Swap" See how inexperienced I am on these forums! |
- Posted by glassgypsy (My Page) on Tue, Jan 11, 11 at 17:49
Count me in! Sounds like a lot of fun! |
I love it! |
- Posted by slowmedown (My Page) on Wed, Jan 12, 11 at 9:00
I think this shot in the arm is the perfect thing to get this form back up and running. Count me in too. Going to the P.O. today to get the box. Thanks, ASTARA, for taking the initiative. |
Spring Share-a-Lotta-Loot! |
Woo Hoo I think we are on a roll........Spring Share-a-Lotta-Loot needs to get started!!! |

Unfortunately, the personality mostly belongs to John Rich, who co-wrote both songs. Once the introductory rambunctiousness is past, there isn't much gusto on Relentless just indifferently interpreted B-list material from Music Row's top tunesmiths. It does take nerve, though, to deliver a ballad with a chorus ''Every man dies, not every man lives'' so shamelessly ripped off from Braveheart. DOWNLOAD THIS: Grown Woman

Benjamin Franklin once said, "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest." Similarly, investing in our schools yields dividends far beyond just the students who attend the school and the teachers and employees who work there. Making sure our educational institutions measure up to the kind of quality environment and education we want to provide for our children is a priority, and that means making the investments that will work towards making every school a green school.
The average public school building in the United States is over 40 years old, and many are much older. More than 15,000 of them have air that was deemed unsafe to breathe, leading to chronic conditions such as asthma and causing students to miss days in class.
There are many resources out there to help parents, teachers, administrators and communities to make upgrades and repairs that will improve learning, create local jobs and create tangible examples of how a cleaner economy will work for us.
Check out these great resources below to see how you can start making green schools work for your community:
Green Ribbon Schools
U.S. Department of Education
The U.S. Department of Education's Green Ribbon Schools recognition award honors schools and districts that are exemplary in reducing environmental impact and costs; improving the health and wellness of students and staff; and providing effective environmental and sustainability education, which incorporates science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), civic skills and green career pathways.
Learn more about the program and take advantage of the wealth of resources.
Center for Green Schools
U.S. Green Building Council
The Center for Green Schools works directly with teachers, students, administrators, elected officials and communities to create programs, resources and partnerships that transform all schools into healthy learning environments.
Browse the website for useful resources such as the 2013 State of Our Schools Report or the Green Schools Investment Guide.
Green Apple Day of Service
The Center for Green Schools, U.S. Green Building Council

- Conference date: 26-30 March 2000
- Location: Oxford (England)
Progress continues on the development of databases for spectral properties of atoms and ions. Version 2.0 of the NIST Atomic Spectra Database (ASD) became available on the World Wide Web in March 1999. This version contains data for many more spectra than version 1.2, which it replaced, and the web interface is much more flexible in terms of presentation options for the user. We are now working to further improve the user interface, especially concerning ease of access to the references. The next version will provide hyperlinks from the spectrum page to references for the wavelengths and transition probabilities of that spectrum. As a continuing effort we are working to expand the coverage of spectra. The NIST Bibliographic Database on Atomic Transition Probabilities has been updated recently, and the NIST Bibliographic Database on Atomic Spectral Line Broadening will be updated sometime during 2000. Some uses of the databases for wavelength calibration of VUV lasers, online modeling of plasmas, and searches for the transition probabilities for all downward branches to specific energy levels of a particular atom for plasma diagnostics will be described.

Can anyone tell me why hard-anodized has become synonymous with nonstick? Why has plain old hard-anodized waned in popularity? I'm not a fan of nonstick, and, IMO, hard-anodized is the best material for cookware. It's not as pretty as stainless, but it's much easier to cook with. It doesn't sear as well as cast iron, but it's lighter, non-reactive, and it heats more evenly. The only non-nonstick option I'm aware of for hard-anodized cookware is Calphalon Commercial. It's not widely available. In fact, I wouldn't have known you could still get it, if I hadn't found it on this forum. So what happend? Ten years ago, the primary choices for high-end cookware were stainless, hard-anodized and infused-anodized. Why did regular hard-anodized drop off that list? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I agree with every thing you say about how good hard-anodized cook ware preforms and its a real joy to use. However, I am a big, big fan of non-stick. Todays top quality cookware with non-stick is so easy to clean. I just wipe them down. I remember the days of Brillo pads and elbow grease after the Sunday roast. Never again. |
- Posted by angiepangie (My Page) on Fri, Jul 12, 13 at 12:26
we got rid of all non stick cookware when we read the reports of harmful fumes at high temps. never, ever get your non stick cookware hot enough to smoke oil or brown meat. |
- Posted by Katie123456 (My Page) on Fri, Jul 12, 13 at 18:57
I understand why a person might want to use nonstick cookware. What I don't understand is, why are the options for NON-nonstick so limited? It's difficult to find anything other than stainless. Ten years ago, if you didn't want non-stick, it was easy to find uncoated hard-anodized aluminum. Which, to me at least, was the obvious choice. It sears better, and it's easier to clean than stainless. Why has the rest of the world stopped loving it? |
Something like 90% of all aluminum pots and pans sold are non-stick. I don't think anyone stopped loving hard-anodized. They just started loving the ease of cleaning that non-stick provides. |

Craig/Moffat Economic Development Partnership fires its executive director
Updated February 28, 2013 at 9:50 p.m.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed working in Craig and will never forget the kindness and support the community has shown me. I wish everyone great success and prosperity."
— Betsy Nauman-Cook, former executive director of the Craig/Moffat Economic Development Partnership
Craig The Craig/Moffat Economic Development Partnership Board fired Betsy Nauman-Cook, its executive director, earlier this week and has tapped former Moffat County Commissioner Audrey Danner to serve as interim director.
The reason for Nauman-Cook's sudden departure is unclear.
Several EDP board members contacted by the Craig Daily Press this week refused to comment on the record about the decision. They referred all questions to the board's executive committee, which consists of EDP board Chairman Jay Oxley. Attempts to reach Oxley this week have been unsuccessful.
As sudden as Nauman-Cook's departure was, so too was the unexpected announcement Thursday that the EDP chose Danner to serve as interim executive director until a permanent replacement is found.
Danner has been a dues-paying EDP member for "several years" and was Moffat County's liaison to the board while in office.
"I have the ability to continue the work EDP has been doing and I believe I can help with their reorganization efforts moving forward," Danner said Thursday. "The first step is beginning the search for a new EDP director."
According to an EDP news release issued late Thursday, the Marianna Raftopoulos Business Incubator and One Stop Business Center will not be affected by the change in leadership and will maintain its normal business hours at the Colorado Northwestern Community College bell tower.
The EDP also plans to stay active in its U.S. Department of Agriculture-sponsored program "Strengthening our Economies Together," or SET.
Moffat County partnered with Routt and Rio Blanco counties to bring the national program aimed at strengthening economic development to the Yampa Valley. The first SET session is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. March 6 in Steamboat Springs. There is no charge to attend, but participants must register for the event.
Nauman-Cook was hired in January 2012. She succeeded Darcy Owens-Trask, who resigned in November 2012 to accept a position with the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade.
During Nauman-Cook's short tenure, the EDP opened the Marianna Raftopoulos Business Incubator and One Stop Business Center, counseled budding entrepreneurs, and was in the midst of applying for a grant through the U.S. Department of Agriculture to begin a micro-loan program for businesses in Craig.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed working in Craig and will never forget the kindness and support the community has shown me," Cook said in a statement. "I wish everyone great success and prosperity."
The EDP receives the bulk of its funding from Moffat County and the city of Craig. Its mission is to strengthen the economies of Craig and Moffat County.

Another situation where the ED gets the axe because of a very dysfunctional board. Lots of finger pointing all around, but in the end it is the taxpayers that suffer once again because of all the fiefdoms/boards and organizations in Craig and Moffat as a whole. Sure there were challenges on all sides, but this board left this ED out to the wolves, with little or no support, and in some cases, those wolves where in sheep's clothing. Even when the Incubator opened, only twenty percent of the seated board members showed up to celebrate the Grand Opening. Few board members helped get it up and running; today most board members cannot tell you what the Incubator does, who it serves, its benefits to the whole community. Sad that so few want to see real and positive change come to this community, because they might not get the light shined on them personally and when you do step up to help, but you don't go along with the crowd and have a few different ideas, you get beat down over and over and finally just give up wanting to help.
Remember folks, the only way we are going to succeed is to get rid of the 'us versus them mentality' and 'let's only work with the people who look and act exactly like us' thinking. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is not going to move you forward no matter how many ways you dress it up. Same board members, same good ole boy mentality, same, same, same!
The C/MEDP organization does not need to be managed, organized or more paper to be pushed, but led by a board that wants to be cutting edge, wants to mingle everyday in the community and out of the community; does not want to just come to board meetings once a month, but wants to roll up its sleeves and get out there. Hunting and gathering is fine, but economic hunting you have to compete with the big boys to bring business to a community. This community (City Council and the BOCC) does not support that because a community needs to be prepared to offer incentives (tax relief, land incentives, cash, etc). Economic gardening is a great alternative, but that seems to be boring to so many, so the C/MEDP does not want to do that either. Good luck in not wasting another $125,000 of taxpayer dollars over the next 10 years because that is where it is headed if the board does not start to act boldly and be bold in their vision, mission and implementation!

Thanks so much Justiceortruth for your well written, factual commentary. I concur 100% with all of your statements. If the ongoing CMEDP Boards know so much about Economic Development why do they keep hiring qualified people and then not allow that person to do the job? Maybe the Board should fill the position since they feel they are the qualified experts. So sad as Ms. Nauman-Cook had accomplished so much during her short tenure. She is a very bright, forward thinking lady who truly cared and worked for the future benefit of Craig/Moffat County.

Participation rates in higher education differ persistently between some groups in society. Using two British datasets we investigate whether this gap is rooted in students' mis-perception of their own and other's ability, thereby increasing the expected costs to studying. Among high school pupils, we find that pupils with a more positive view of their academic abilities are more likely to expect to continue to higher education even after controlling for observable measures of ability and students' characteristics. University students are also poor at estimating their own test-performance and over-estimate their predicted test score. However, females, white and working class students have less inflated view of themselves. Self-perception has limited impact on the expected probability of success and expected returns amongst these university students.

Samsung Galaxy A its siblings, it's an Android handset with OLED screen but also brings DivX, DMB-T and more to the table and access to no less than three app stores.
Samsung Galaxy A it does have HSDPA/HSPA 3G connectivity, but instead of plotting how to smuggle it out.
The Samsung Galaxy A has a 3.7" OLED screen (though not SuperAMOLED) with WVGA resolution. There's support for 720p video playback (sadly though, not recording), DivX/XviD and DMB-T, which makes the Galaxy A a wiz at playing video.
Samsung Galaxy A runs Android 2.1 on a 720MHz CPU and doesn't have much internal memory - however it does come with an 8GB microSD card in the box, which is the next best thing.
Other items on the spec sheet include a 5MP camera, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, a 1500mAh battery and access to Samsung's application store and SK Telecom's T-Store (and the Android Market too, of course).

Active solar space heating systems require a lot of equipment
solar potential varies around the country
In many U.S. climates, a solar hot water system is a sensible way to heat water for showers and laundry. However, it usually makes less sense to use a solar thermal system for space heating.
The performance of an active solar space heating system depends on the equipment installed, the climate, the solar potential of the site, how well the house is insulated and air-sealed, and the type of heat distribution system in the house.
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory says homeowners can expect to meet up to 40% to 60% of their winter space-heating needs with solar collectors; in many climates, performance ...

Before I installed the Product Design Suite, Network License. I did a Clean Uninstall of all Autodesk software: Uninstalled Programs, Deleted remaining Autodesk Folders, Cleared the Registry of all things Autodesk, cleared the Windows Temp folder, and Even ran Windows Install Clean Up Program. Clean slate, start the install, type in my three redundant license server names, the suite installs without a hitch.
I reboot. I opened AutoCad Mechanical, and AutoCAd with not issues. However Inventor, Showcase, Sketchbook, 3ds Max, and Fusion will not load/open, all is the blue spinning wheel. Check the Task Manager and see the program in processes, nothing happens. Then I right click on the image, and I will get a window stating program not responding.
I checked my Environmental Variables and the ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FLEX and FLEXLM_TIMEOUT are set correctly.
I do understand why my Autocad and Mechanical are the only software that functions out of the suite. I have done a complete uninstall and re-install and the issue still exists. Only AutoCAD will Open and function. Intentor will not open.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Solved! by MadCatter. See the answer in context.
Yes, It was my profile. Turns out just removing the Autodesk files from it was not enough. We had to remove it from the registry too.
Inventor still takes awhile to launch, once it's up it operates normally.
Thanks Everyone for your timely help!
Hi MadCatter,
You might also search here: Installation & Licensing forum.
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Did you find this reply helpful ? If so please use the Accept as Solution or Kudos button below.
Thanks, Do I need to post the question over there. Would I get more replies?
I've seen a few folks have similar issues, but haven't seen any solutions. This is furstrating, all want or need is Inventor and AutoCAD operational.
Did you also clear your Windows user profile of all things Autodesk? There might be corrupted remnants of something there. One way to check is to use a different login and see if Inventor, etc will start.

Thanks Everyone for your timely help!
Update: After I was able to get Inventor to launch it still took 5-6 minutes to open, I checked hardware, installed updates, drivers, deselected settings, selected setting etc..... Local Autodesk support guy told I need to look at OS processes and network to find the bottleneck. First thing I did was borrow a network license, shut it down, and started inventor, 20 seconds later inventor was up and running. Turns out a year ago one of our license servers was decommisioned and the users were never notified. After I updated the enviromental variables with the correct license servers, Inventor launches just fine, alittle slower than it does with a license checked out.
