Dear Stoner: Where's the best place to get stoned on the hill?
Sparky Snowboarder
Dear Sparky: We don't mind a little puff on a powder day. But resort owners and the U.S. Forest Service do. Remember, there are only a handful of ski hills on private land. Most are located on leased national forest land — including all five that your Epic pass covers — and marijuana (medical or not) is still illegal at the federal level.
From our experience, ski patrollers tend to be cool as long as you're not blatant about it — but they aren't the only ones out there. There are also forest rangers, and in towns like Vail and Breckenridge, it's not uncommon to see police officers telemarking down the hill in front of you. They're mostly there as a publicity stunt and for the free passes, but cops do occasionally help out with drunks in the lodges, and they might not mind busting your hippie ass.
So while we would love to tell you that the Outpost Gondola at Keystone and the slow Alpine chair at Copper are great places to burn one down, or that you can sometimes find other people burning down in the smoke shacks at Breck or Winter Park, we won't. You'll have to find that out on your own.
Dear Stoner: Considering the issues facing our society today, do stoners really consider legalizing marijuana a priority? When every kid has a good school in their neighborhood, when our bridges and highways are not falling apart, when no one has to choose between food and medical care, then we can start talking about letting potheads get high on whatever and whenever they want.
Donald Downer
Dear DD: It's not just stoners who want marijuana legal. There are farmers, doctors, lawyers and even cops out there who want to see an end to marijuana laws in this country. See, when we stop prosecuting people for the victimless crimes of growing, possessing and smoking a little herb, we free up our time, money and resources for other things. While Amendment 64 is still being ironed out, the law says that the legislature will enact up to a 15 percent excise tax on ganja sold or transferred by a "marijuana cultivation facility" to retail stores and marijuana product manufacturers, with the first $40 million going to public schools.
And last I checked, we pot smokers like to get high on pot.
The very easy accesible 420 shack off the Rocky Mountain Super chair in Breck, just follow the smell of sweet mountain grown ganja from the top of the chair right to the shack only a few hundred yards away.
see more photos and view maps to the shacks so you can get high and ski on:
The always famous and popular CJ's shack between Peak 9 and 10 Breckenridge
http://www.flickr.com/photos/tutonephotos/8368687502/in/photostream for beautiful photos of Breckenridge smoke shacks
Next to 'Ask a Mexican', this is WW's second most, 'Waste of Space' !
Dear Stoner,
Did any of your mother's children live ?
Nothing pisses me off more than tourists (skiing in jeans) who stumble, yes stumble, into a shack location and start hitting me up for weed. It's happened 3-4 times over the past two seasons. I might sound like a hipster, but the shacks have become too mainstream. Just find a sheltered area in the trees.
Westweed = all Marijuana, all the Time!
Weedword = pandering to puerile pot punks since 2008
@BackOffImStarving "I might sound like a hipster ..."
The Pope might sound like a Catholic ...
... does a Stoner suck in the Woods? ... Toke in the Trees?
... is a Stupid Stoner by any other name not as Stupid?

I use \fontsize{18pt}{20pt}\selectfont
comand because I want 18pt fontsize. Does rule fontsize+2 always apply? Say for 20pt font leading will be 22, 32 for 30 and so on.

TeX - LaTeX Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for users of TeX, LaTeX, ConTeXt, and related typesetting systems. It's 100% free, no registration required.
The answer depends on the font: the size of ascenders and descenders. Fonts with larger ascenders/descenders require larger leading, fonts with smaller ones require smaller one. For Computer Modern However, a fine tuning of leading requires a real expertise in font and typography design, so if you have any specific recommendations for the font you use by the font author, you'd be better off following them.

wdc202---Go to the winter sowing forum and read the FAQS. Then if you have ny more questions, just ask on the winter sowing forum. There are really nice and helpful people there to help you out. Duane |
I started some hardy hibiscus seeds my Mom gave me about 3 years ago in November of last year. They didn't sprout untill the end of December, just 1. then another in Jan them 1 in Feb and the last one so far in Mar. First time for trying Hibiscus from seed. Am waiting for some more to show there face! Paws |

Give them a soak. Sow on the surface, press them gently onto the soil. |
Michelee: As a novice I need some more detail: How closely do I plant the seeds? As much nstruction as possible, please. Thanks much. ....wdc |
I cut water bottles in half, filled the bottom half with soil, wet it, pressed the seeds down into the soil (3 per bottle) and taped the top back on. Then I stuck them outside for wintersowing. They are all starting to germinate now! Easy as pie! |
Hi Here some more help I used sand paper and sanded them frist then i planted them in soil and in 2 week they were up. I have tryed without the sandpaper and it took 2 months. This is how I sand place one seed on sand paper then take another sandpaper and roll it around for a few turn make sure you see tiny line on it then plant it I will be doing mine tomorrow I know I'am a little late. anna lisa |

I'm not sure what you mean when you say you pollinated the seed or the pod. Of course I know what pollination means, but I'm not how it is applied to a hibiscus pod. I have some burgandy lunas and noticed the pods; I just took them off and stuck them in dirt. I haven't seen anything yet. I guess there's more to it than that? I would like to grow some for Christmas presents, if you have anymore advice. Thanks, Candice |
I took the easy way and grew mine from Park seeds using Park-starts under a shop light. It works for me. Good luck. |

Hi,I have never had any trouble growing hibiscus from seeds.I soak mine overnight,and then plant them in little 6 packs pots.Takes no longer then 2 or 3 weeks.I grow all of my hibiscus this way.Hope this helps. Margaret |

Ok My wife Grows them from seed in one of two ways 1) Fill a styrofoam cup half full with compost push seed 1/4" deep and place in ziploc til it sprouts then open bag and set in a window til 4 true leaves and then transplant to pot or yard. 2) we have 2 earth boxes that sit in the yard and she plants them in there and water daily |
Thank you all for your advice on growing hibiscus from seed. I have been away and have just now had the chance to read all your tips. I will try planting some seeds this weekend. ... wdc |
I have never gotten a seed pod on any of my hibiscus. I have tried hand pollinating and no luck! also no luck with cuttings. I have a cutting in a 2 liter bottle since last summer. Has a couple leafs and no roots yet! I must be doing something terribly wrong. Is there a secret to hand pollinating? i think I would have better luck with seeds. Gladys |
I planted hibiscus seed in the yard without soaking or nicking about a week ago. Should I remove and nick or leave them untouched? |
Last year I started hibiscus from seed and planted them in my garden. They did not bloom. I am still waiting for them to come up this year. They were supposed to be "hardy" hibiscus. How long shall I wait, or do you think they winter-killed? I also put 3 plants in a pot last year and wintered them in my basement. They are now growing nicely. Any info will be appreciated. |

I successfully started hibiscus seeds and they sprouted within a few weeks, just after they started to get a third leaf, they started to wither and look as if they are dying. Help! I have them inside the house near a window which gets sun, i always place my plants in this location and in the past, they have always done well. Any suggestions? I took a couple of photos today in case anyone wants to look at them. Thank you! |
Ordered online a package of Dinner Plate Hibiscus seeds and I popped ONE seed into a pot and within days, it sprouted! Thinking all my hopes were put into this one seedling... what if something happens to it? So I planted some four more seeds and this time nothing happened as quickly with all (4). Looked up online how slow the seeds are to germinate, I am amazed at how lucky I was the first time! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Pea Soup Designs, Hibiscus
Fairfaxwatch Are you starting these seeds the same time of year? This time of year the window may be cooking your seeds. I believe I cooked my second round of pottings by putting them in baggies. The difference was the height of the sun and the temp of the place I put the pots. |

Gaiam Goes Wild For Go Zero: Part 3
How Go Zero has helped restore native forestlands: Q&A with Tim Menard, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist
To better understand the on-the-ground benefit of Gaiam's support, we sat down with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist Tim Menard to discuss the restoration of 775 acres of native forestland along the Marais des Cygnes River, near the borders of Kansas and Missouri, using funds from the Go Zero program. Menard oversees conservation efforts in this area—including biodiversity, wildlife research, land use planning and management, and wildlife habitat enhancement across 25,500 acres of forestland and tall-grass prairie.
How did you get involved with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service?
I worked for all four major federal land management agencies and determined this to be the best fit. I chose the Fish and Wildlife Service because of its focus and clear mission — wildlife first. It's about implementation, habitat restoration and wildlife management.
How did Marais des Cygnes National Wildlife Refuge work with the Go Zero program?
The Go Zero program helped us with two things. First, it enabled us to reforest more acres than we ever could have on our own in a single year — or even over a five-year period. Second, it gave us the freedom to determine the tree species composition that was best for the land and the wildlife. As a result, we can bring back a native ecosystem more quickly than would otherwise be possible.
Why did the land need to be restored?
When we looked at the original land surveys from 1856, we could see that all of the area adjacent to the Marais des Cygnes River was forested. Over time, the land was cleared for agriculture, and then eventually those fields were taken out of production. More than 80 percent of the land that was restored in the spring of 2008 has been out of production since the refuge was established in 1992.
How will the region's birds and wildlife benefit? How long will it take?
That's the interesting part. An entire array of species will benefit throughout the life of the forest, beginning right now. We don't have to wait 70 to 100 years to realize the benefits of replanting with native species. Even now, there are birds using the restored lands. In the early years, the restored parcels are used by field sparrows. In 20 years, we'll see yellow breasted chat and indigo bunting. At the forest's full maturity, our children will be able to spot prothonotary warbler nests, and in the winter months, red-headed woodpeckers.
We know that the trees will absorb carbon dioxide from the air, but what is happening to the water on the refuge?
By restoring these marginal agriculture fields back to their native habitat, we have established permanent vegetation. This will help stabilize the topsoil and slow the rate of runoff, reducing the effects of flooding along the Marais des Cygnes River.
What's next for Marais des Cygnes NWR?
We'll continue to manage the newly restored 775 acres for wildlife. But we're already actively seeking funds for another project. There are thousands of acres just waiting to be restored on the Missouri side of the border.

Wooton Patent Desks
Wooton Patent Desks are superb examples of Victorian innovation in furniture design. Both in their construction and use, these desks reflect the transitions taking place in manufacturing and business during the 19th century. The manufacture of Wooton Desks was typical if the increasing use of mass-production techniques and woodworking machinery to produce high-quality furniture in quantities that were sufficient to take advantage of the worldwide markets made available by expanding transportation systems. The design of the desks provided an ingenious solution to the businessman's problem of organizing the increasingly voluminous paperwork created by the rapid expansion and growing complexity of business during this period. From both the business and design perspectives, a Wooton patent desk earned the sobriquet "Desk of the Age" and "The King of Desks". (It was sometimes misspelled Wooten Desk.)
The Wooton Desk Manufacturing Co. was established in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1870 by inventor, William S. Wooton, a pattern maker by trade, a former evangelist - minister, and religious organizer for the Friends Church. He saw an opportunity and vision as a furniture maker, and remained active in that business until 1893.
The company was known for a group of elaborate walnut folding desks, first patented in 1874, in the Victorian Eastlake style which were essentially self-contained offices. These elaborate cabinets came in four grades: "Ordinary," "Standard", "Extra", and "Superior". The desks were expensive, prestige furniture, even in their own time, ranging from $100 to $750 each depending on grade. They were used by prominent figures in the White House and by titans of finance and industry like J. P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, Jay Gould, Ulysses S. Grant, Spencer Baird at the Smithsonian Institution, Dr. Edward Hofma, Charles Scribner, Joseph Pulitzer, and (perhaps) England's Queen Victoria owned one. Attorneys, Physicians, Political Figures, Educators, Railway Agents, Insurance Brokers, Bankers, Publishers, and Manufacturers purchased Wooton Desks.
According to the 1876 Wooton catalogue, their top line of secretaries were described as follows: "The Secretary is entirely different from anything ever constructed before. It consists of three sections, the main case and (two) wings or doors, which contain pigeon-holes, shelving, drawers, etc. convenient in arrangement and uniform in appearance. We manufacture four grades, the Ordinary, Standard, Extra and Superior, and three sizes of each grade. The ornamentation and decorative style increased with each higher grade. Its capacity is more than double that of any other desk manufactured, occupying the same floor space. Every division is within easy reach of the writer; the Secretary can be opened and closed in a moment, and when closed, the contents are secure from dust and intrusion. The lock which fastens the wings is the only one required."
In 1876, the desks were now receiving international attention. Notices and advertisements for them appeared in popular local and national newspapers, literary magazines, and business trade journals throughout the United States and Great Britain. By 1884, the desks were said to be finding their way as far as South America, Mexico, China, Japan, Egypt, Turkey, and Australia.

A license is a document stating that permission is granted by a party ("licensor") to another party ("licensee") to occupy a property. The licensor does not hand over exclusive possession of the property but retains his or her right to use it. In Street v Mountford [1985] 2 All ER 289:
"The issue whether or not exclusive possession has been granted is the test for distinguishing between a lease and a license."
A tenancy may be simply defined as a letting of land for a term not exceeding three (3) years. A tenancy is not a registrable interest in land and is known as a "tenancy exempt from registration" under Section 213 of the NLC 1965.
In the eastern states of Sabah & Sarawak, a tenancy is substantially a sublease not exceeding one year which need not be registered in order to be valid. See Section 105 and Section 161 of the Sabah and Sarawak Land Ordinance & Code respectively.
The three essential characteristics of a tenancy are as follows:
As per Lord Templeman in Street v. Mountford [1985] 2 All ER 289:
"…To constitute a tenancy the occupier must be granted exclusive possession for a fixed or periodic term certain in consideration of a premium or periodical payments. The grant may be express, or may be inferred where the owner accepts weekly or other periodical payments from the occupier…"
Although a tenancy is not capable of being registered, it may however be protected by way of an endorsement on the register document of title – Section 213(3) NLC 1965. Once such an endorsement has been made, the tenancy binds any subsequent purchaser i.e. where the sale and purchase agreement is entered into after the endorsement.- See Than Kok Leong v Low Kim Hai [1983] 1 MLJ 187
Tenancies may only be endorsed on the title. As such tenancies are therefore never taken as security for loans granted by financial institutions
The rights and obligations of the parties under a tenancy are laid down either expressly by the parties or , in the absence of any express agreement, impliedly by law.
A tenancy comes to an end when:
Oral tenancy agreements are a legal method of tenancy agreement. These types of agreement are not recommended as the tenant and landlord can find problems occur, for instance with rent payments and deposits.
An agreement still exists even if there is only an oral agreement between the tenant and the landlord. For example, it may have been agreed at the start of the tenancy how much the rent would be and when it is to be paid, whether it includes fuel and bills such as water rates and who is allowed to stay in the property. Once a landlord has accepted rent from a tenant then a previous verbal agreement now becomes a legal agreement.
Oral agreements can be difficult to enforce because there is often no proof of what has been agreed. For instance, a particular problem may arise which the agreement did not cover. As with written agreements, oral agreements also provide the landlord and tenant with certain rights, but the difference is that they could be more difficult to enforce. If a dispute went to the courts, there would be no written tenancy agreement as evidence, so this could result in one of the parties not getting the rights they believe were verbally agreed upon at the start of the tenancy.
It is therefore generally in both the landlord and the tenant's best interests to have a tenancy agreement in writing to ensure that both sides understand their rights and responsibilities. An agreement in writing will also prevent disputes over what the verbal agreement contained.
In Peninsular Malaysia, a lease is a letting of land for a term exceeding three (3) years and is a registrable interest as provided for under Sec. 221(2) and 227 of the NLC 1965.
In Sabah and Sarawak, a lease is referred to as a sublease and is one exceeding one (1) year. Only registrable sub-leases are valid as per Section 104 and 158 of the Sabah and Sarawak Land Ordinance and Code respectively.
A lease may be defined as an interest in land granted by the lessor, whether he is the owner of the land or not, to a lessee for a certain period. The main characteristics of a lease are as follows:
A lease may be granted by way of an oral or written agreement. It only has a legal effect upon registration of an instrument in Form 15A or in the case of sublease, Form 15B of the NLC 1965.
Where the land is subject to a charge, the written consent of the chargee must be obtained before the lease can be granted. (See Section 226 of NLC 1965).
A lease cannot be granted in perpetuity. Section 221(3) of the NLC 1965 provides that the maximum period for a lease is 99 years in respect of the whole of the land and 30 years in respect of part of the land. (See Siew Soon Wah v. Yong Tong Hong [1973] MLJ 133)
The rights and obligations of the parties to a lease are laid down either expressly by the parties themselves or, in the absence of any express agreement, impliedly by law. The parties to a lease or sublease may incorporate the provisions as set out in the Sixth Schedule of the NLC 1965 in their agreement subject to any modification as they think fit. (See Section 229 of the NLC 1965).
In the absence of any express provisions, certain implied agreements are applicable to every lease or sublease. Section 230 of the NLC 1965 provides that the following agreements shall be implied:
Section 231 of the NLC 1965 provides that in the absence of any express provisions to the contrary, the following agreements on the part of the lessee and sublessee are to be read into the lease or sublease:
Section 232 of the NLC 1965 provides that in the absence of any express provisions to the contrary, the following agreements on the part of the lessor and sublessor are to be implied into every lease or sublease:
A lease ends in any one of the following circumstances:
Leases are registrable with the Land Office and the lessees have a registered interest in the land upon registration. The interests of a lessee is better taken care of/protected compared to a tenant under a tenancy as they only have an equitable interest in the land, that is, their interests are subject to those with registered interests. However, all tenants/lessees are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of the property subject to the terms and conditions of the governing written documents.
A lease can be registered with the Land Office by submitting a duly completed Form 15A NLC with registration fees.

I'm redoing my kitchen and am going to run the hardwood floors through the kitchen (it's tiles right now). After pulling up the tile and backerboard, there is a total of 1 1/4" of subfloor. Looking in the basement, i can see 7 1/4" wide planks that run perpendicular to the joists. I think there is plywood above the planks. I'm trying to get the floor level so the new hardwoods in the kitchen will match up evenly with the hardwoods in the rest of the house.
Couple of questions. Any body know the depth of the planks that are above the floor joists? Should i put the hardwoods on top of those planks, or is there a need for plywood in between?? |

Pull up a section of quarter round and/or baseboard and you can measure. 3/4 inch is common. Unless you are willing to tear out a layer, just lay the new and put in a threshold between the rooms. |

Shooting the messenger
This weekend it was reported that an Oxford college – St Hugh's – has refused to award a place to an applicant because it thought he wasn't rich enough. At least, that's what the headlines said, and…well, it's sort of true. It's just that that's also quite a misleading way of putting it. A headline reading "Oxford college 'sued for discriminating against the poor'" conjures up – perhaps intentionally – images of fusty, classically-educated dons deciding whether potential students are "the right sort" over port and roast guinea-fowl. Which, needless to say, isn't actually what happened.
Damien Shannon (the applicant in question) was awarded a place to study for a Masters in Economic History at St Hugh's College, but was unable to secure any funding to pay his fees or living costs. The course fees were £8,000 and the college estimates that students will need around £13,000 to live on, so they require that self-funding graduate students have access to around £21,000 in funds to ensure they won't have to drop out of the course for lack of money. Shannon had managed to take out a career development loan for £10,000 but hadn't managed to get hold of any further money (and his parents weren't able to offer financial help) [Edit: Shannon writes below the line that in fact the career development loan was for fees only, and that he had £9,000 available to him for living costs], so the college refused to let him enrol on the grounds that they didn't think it was likely he'd be able to afford to complete the course. Shannon is now suing the college, claiming discrimination.
I can see why you might argue – as Shannon's local MP Hazel Blears does –that £13,000 is an excessively high estimate of minimum living costs, although her assertion that, "[i]t is ludicrous that a student deemed to be of sufficient academic merit is deemed incapable of budgeting to ensure they have enough money to live on" is simply rubbish. Being a gifted historian – even an economic historian – doesn't remotely entail any particular talent at estimating how much money you'll need to live and study in an unfamiliar city. There's certainly also good reason to be concerned about the current lack of funding for postgraduate study, and its potential to put poorer students off pursuing academic careers in the arts. But what I can't see is how this can remotely be considered to be an instance of discrimination on the part of the college. St Hugh's didn't reject Shannon because they only want rich students to apply; they rejected him because they didn't want a situation where he got halfway through his course, paid his fees (or at least a substantial chunk of them) and then had to drop out because he ran out of money. In that instance, it wouldn't be St Hugh's College which suffered a severe material loss, but Shannon himself. This rather strongly suggests that what the college is trying to do is not to shut out poor would-be postgraduates, but to only admit people they think stand a decent chance of being able to complete their studies.
The funding situation for would-be postgraduate students in the UK is dire. We can – and should – call for that situation to be improved, but taking academic institutions to court for doing nothing more than responding to the financial climate in which they currently operate seems a fairly textbook case of shooting the messenger.

Executive Bios
Irwin Jacobs – Chairman and CEO
As chairman and chief executive officer of the world's largest tournament-fishing organization, Irwin L. Jacobs serves as the leader of FLW and visionary founder of FLW Fantasy Fishing.
FLW is, without question, the purveyor of America's largest and most prestigious fishing tournaments, including the FLW Tour, FLW Series, Bass Fishing League, College Fishing and High School Fishing. Jacobs heads an organization that offers the biggest awards in the sport.
FLW's tournament portfolio includes the world championship of bass fishing: the Forrest Wood Cup – a no-entry-fee event that offers the sport's biggest payday. No one has contributed more than Jacobs to putting the sport on the fast track.
As founder of FLW Fantasy Fishing, Jacobs has taken the popularity of professional angling to the next level. Launched in 2007, this series of fantasy tournaments complements Jacobs' vision to grow fishing beyond the estimated 60 million anglers who participate in the sport annually and build it into a sport that is as much a part of the American psyche as Monday Night Football and NASCAR.
Jacobs has received recognition for his efforts and contributions to the sport of competitive fishing throughout his career and in 2010 was inducted into the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame and the Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame. Jacobs saw the organization he started honored as well with FLW being inducted into the Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame.
Today Jacobs continues to tap into the buying power of the nation's fishing enthusiasts through new ventures in business and sports. Throughout his career, Jacobs has owned and/or controlled multiple large, small and start-up companies. He is a passionate and relentless innovator, linking sports and business for the benefit of sponsors, fans and anglers alike.
Forrest L. Wood
Forrest L. Wood is the namesake behind FLW® and its fishing tournaments, including the prestigious Forrest Wood Cup.
Born in 1932 in the tiny town of Flippin, Ark., Wood's passion for angling, boat building, boat safety and wildlife conservation made him a legend in his industry. Known internationally as the "Father of the Modern Bass Boat," Wood founded the now-famous Ranger® Boat Company in 1968.
A well-known angler and guide, he brought innovation to the simple boat design of his day. Over time, Wood heightened his passion for angling and boat building by helping to pioneer the competitive sport of bass fishing. He even competed in two Bassmaster Classics.
Trisha Blake – President of Marketing
Serving as the president of the marketing division for FLW since 2010, Trisha Blake has been a key contributor to the success and growth of the organization in her tenure with the company. Blake was named senior vice president and chief marketing officer of FLW in 2004 and served as vice president of corporate affairs prior to that.
Blake oversees the sponsorship, creative, interactive and communications departments as well as the marketing and strategic plans for FLW. Blake also works closely with the operations division to maximize activation and exposure for the organization and its partners.
Blake has been instrumental in the development and growth of FLW Fantasy Fishing, which was launched in 2007 with a $1 million award to the player with the top fantasy team. FLW Fantasy Fishing allows anyone, regardless of ability, to compete, follow the sport and win great prizes. This phenomenon continues to increase exposure for fishing beyond the 60 million-plus anglers that participate annually and has attracted fantasy sports competitors from 123 countries.
Blake has two children with her husband, Robert.
Kathy Fennel – President of Operations
Kathy Fennel was appointed president of the FLW operations division in 2010. Fennel oversees day-to-day operations, making sure FLW continues to provide prestigious, well-organized tournaments of which participants, fans and sponsors are proud to be a part.
Fennel has been a key figure in the organization since 1982 and has become one of the most influential people in the fishing industry. Her strength and experience was recognized in 1996 when she was promoted to operations manager. The following year she was appointed vice president of operations, and in 2004 she was promoted to executive vice president and chief operating officer.
Fishing has been a major component of Fennel's personal and professional life. She grew up in western Kentucky, where fishing plays a major role in the local economy, and she has played a pivotal role in numerous tournament innovations such as improved live-release techniques, automated weigh-in procedures and establishing tournament formats for television broadcast.
The growth of FLW has Fennel overseeing and working directly with tournament directors, site solicitation, logistics, information technology, FLW Bass Fishing magazine, "FLW" television, angler management and numerous other daily responsibilities.
She also works with the marketing division to ensure exposure for the organization and its partners.

Please share Jigs to hold pallet planks to cut with a chainsaw (electric). I use the wood to start fires only and might have a 4'X 4' cube of planks. I used my band saw to cut the planks the last 2 seasons after finding the source of wood. The band saw is dusty and time consuming for the small amount used when I'm not burning 24/7. With the band saw or chainsaw I know nails are a concern. Thanks In Advance! |

I had a bunch of 6" wide fencing to cut up a few years ago. I just stacked about 16-18" of boards together with a pair of furniture clamps. (pipe type) |
I use a similar method with small limbs stacked 3-4ďż˝ high between post when I bring in 3-6" oak wood (from tree trimming off the curbs). Not being concerned with nails, this is a time saver and good heat/exercise vs larger logs. On a real cold night I can fit in 10-12" All-Nighter +! Feeding the fire before the next morning is history vs coals to continue with the next day. Holiday fires only are not close if I can keep finding reasonable wood!!! |
Followup: The pallet plank cutting setup vs a jig was not a challenge after sleeping on the matter. My Chop Saw with a bad carbide blade was the solution (incase I hit a nail). I have used the saw purchased for cutting metal, @ 3500 rpm w/o any problems cutting wood on framing jobs. Too cheap and late in life to want a Miter Saw after using a Radial Arm Saw for years to cut angles, framing and general woodworking. The process went so fast that I d/n take the chance of cutting multiple boards (due to so many nails). Except, a few times when I had boards to split w/o any nails period. At my source I am able to get all planks from pallets vs assembled pallets. It will be interesting to see if any wood is in the free firewood area now vs my 7/2010 load (with about half gone). I needed that break (vs the dusty band saw) and should have all the starter wood cut for this winter +. |

I'm building one maybe late 2013 before end year. Working up material now smaller one this be made form beer keg stainless steel about 5 inch inside Keg for jet. No smoke out vent just co2 and steam. You burn small wood twigs people that have a lot use limbs that fall in yard as wood supply the fire burns sideways inside goes top barrel as close 1 inch you 1/4 per size inside pipe. Ashes are so small lite are none wood burns from ends. Draft is high speed so burns creosote as burns. Its not certified home use measurement are important. Flu goes in Box with small rocks the top this box called butt warmer. |
Here is a link that might be useful: rocket stove mass heater
I just use my sawzall w/ a short demo blade for campfire wood. Mike |
I usually use my Husky 460 Rancher for Hardwood Pallets and my Stihl MS260 for softwood which are smaller pallets. Cut up over 40 pallets in less than a hr into 4"x 12" sections for fire starting or a quick fire for spring and fall earlier this summer. Just had my right hip replaced Monday and will be kicking back and relaxing for a few weeks prior to any labourious endeavours lol . Merry Xmas Gang :) |
Take It Easy Ewalk! The chainsaws and Sawzall are good choices IMO with assembled pallets with varying wood and known nail locations. My pallet plank's nails were not a huge concern but more than assembled. My SUV and I were able to get a better load in planks vs pallets. BTW, the past 1993 Explorer Loved Me 15 years. The present 07 4Runner took over 2 yrs ago this Christmas. It's enjoying the minor work vs the utility trailer for major work. The Explorer as the 4Runner is fitted with a truck's shell when I know it will be needed. The totaled Explorer (due to a fried Main Wiring Harness and some heat damage) surprised me with a 3,700.00 value (due to options and good condition @ 116,000 mi. That helped a little in affording the 07 4 Runner (low mi, certified + ext war bumper to bumper) due to wanting a solid frame and read axle for off-road use. I Have Not Caught A Fish Since! LOL. A lot is due to our North Tx drought and fun projects. |
Hey nice load of fire starter wood , even some 2x4 and 2x6 sections for free....good stuff Dude. P.S. I will smoke some white fish this weekend and send some South to Texas lol :) |
The 10" Chop Saw carbide blade cuts small round wood 4" "easier" w/o rotating to cut larger just as good as pallet planks compared to a chainsaw. My new task is to cut small wood 12-16" long just to keep a bed of coal w/o tending the fire or wasting wood. At that length or shorter the wood stays in the bed of coals. I hate starting new fires vs using good coals. Cleaning & Rotating is a different story but not bad. I still question the dust from the cuts due to a variety of green/dry/seasoned woods being cut "in a garage" vs outside. The quick good heat after the "All Nighters" is hard to beat with roller-coaster temps 20s-30s at night and 50s-60s during the day. PS. Send Some Rain And Fish To North, Tx Soon!!! |

noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Low-lying plain composed of stream-borne sediments deposited by a river at its mouth. Deltas have been important to humankind since prehistoric times. Sands, silts, and clays deposited by floodwaters were extremely productive agriculturally; and major civilizations flourished in the deltaic plains of the Nile and Tigris-Euphrates rivers. In recent years geologists have discovered that much of the world's petroleum resources are found in ancient deltaic rocks. Deltas vary widely in size, structure, composition, and origin, though many are triangular (the shape of the Greek letter delta).

Proof of Jam X's status came with his invitation to participate for two years running in the Battle for World Supremacy, a New York-based event that pitted turntablists such as the X-ecutioners' Sinista and Q-Bert of the Invisibl Skratch Piklz against each other in a contest of savvy and showmanship. "They picked sixteen DJs from all over the world to go to the New Music Seminar when they were still having that," says Jam X, who was chosen by the World Supremacy selection committee over hundreds of other applicants on the strength of a video he submitted. "And I did good. I didn't win it, but I met a lot of contacts. I was one of the best sixteen in the world."
This is no idle boast. As anyone who's seen Jam X work his magic at venues like Muddy's and Club Mecca knows, his approach to the DJ medium is ultrakinetic, gymnastic, even spastic at times. He's been known to stand on his two Technics 1200 turntables and mix songs with his feet. But he's just as concerned about music as he is about putting on a good show. One lesson he's learned, he says, is not to "play everything you want to hear. That's not why you're there. And make sure you know how to mix before you go to a party. There's nothing worse than a DJ who's up there and he's got the double beats going, and he can't hear it, and he's walking around like, 'I'm better than all these cats.'"
A native of Columbus, Ohio, Jam X grew up mainly in Aurora--and by the early Eighties, he and his cousin, fellow area performer Chill, were spending much of their time competing with other fledgling hip-hop acts using a children's record player rescued from a dumpster. Back then, Jam X says, "we would use basically anything we could scrape together" in an effort to craft beats as perfect as the ones concocted by heroes such as Grandmaster Flash.
"We would even rap over old Prince records like 'Lady Cabdriver,'" Chill adds, laughing.
Jam X's abilities took a quantum leap after Big Jon, who was one of the city's most popular DJs at the time, set out to teach him the tricks of the trade. Right now Big Jon is a big name in hip-hop: He has a powerful position with EMI's publishing wing, he served as the executive producer on the latest CD by rapper AZ, and he's worked with everyone from Master P to the Wu-Tang Clan. As a result, some locals fault him for not doing more to help the Coloradans he left behind. But Jam X thinks criticism like this is unfair. "Big Jon opened up a lot of doors for a lot of DJs, and they don't give him the thanks like they should," he says. "A lot of people think he turned his back, but his door is always open. He's always asking me to send him tapes of the artists out here who are doing things. To me, there was nobody like Big Jon. He had all the skills. I mean, lines wrapped around the building when he did his clubs, and he often let me open up for him."
Years later, Jam X carries on in the tradition of Big Jon and old-schoolers like Funk Master Flex and Kid Capri, who he believes "took the DJ thing to a whole new level. They're making a very good living off of it, and no other DJ had been able to do that before." While he tends to gravitate toward underground hip-hop and East Coast-flavored grooves, he's willing to do whatever is necessary to find the right vibe for a particular crowd. While preparing for a show, he says, "I don't really go in with a game plan. You've got to test it out--you've got to go in with the first cut and then see how they react to it." As an example, he cites an August show at the Ogden Theatre during which he and Chill opened up for Ol' Dirty Bastard. After gauging the mood of the audience, he was able to focus on hard-edged material by the likes of M.O.P. and the Flip Mode Squad rather than what he refers to as "the KS-107.5 type of stuff."
KS-107.5, the primary radio outlet for hip-hop and modern urban music in Denver, has taken a lot of heat from local rappers like Kingdom for failing to provide listeners with access to fresh sounds (see Feedback, July 30). Jam X is just as adamant about the station's weaknesses. "I think they're killing us, because they don't really want to open up as far as playing local artists," he says. "I mean, they don't want to expand on playing local artists, and they don't want to expand on the same twenty set songs, either. They're really limiting the state from growing, because they're not exposing people to enough different music."

out of 5 starsI liked the size of this cabinet..it doesnot occupy too much space. It also looks attractive. - Alec
Pefectly matches my drawing room décor....What else do I want!!! I store all my CD's and DVD's in it. - Cajetan
Recently mounted the flat screen TV on the wall and purchased a nice console in Espresso. Wanted a media cabinet to hold the CD's, DVD's and VHS tapes. Pictures of this cabinet make it look "tall", but it is only 44 inches. Why do they build them so short? Picture also showed the cabinet in a very dark color. Quality of this cabinet is very good and it is very attractive. I will keep it even though the Antique Walnut color is not even close to the Espresso color of my tv console. It will hold my CD's and DVD's for sure, but will need to purchase another cabinet for the VHS tapes I want to keep. May purchase another of this cabinet for the VHS tapes. Good price and value. - JB
nothing negative to say - Tim
Great piece for the price. Very easy to assemble. - Redecorating on a Budget
This is a wonderful piece. We needed media storage for a very narrow space. This fits perfectly yet holds a lot of stuff! - Michelle

BACKSTORY (fast forward to the question below if you dislike verbose backstories!):
Well, you may remember my post a few weeks ago asking for an ID on a Black Hills Spruce. Thank you all who helped me zero in on this ID. My next door neighbor (an original owner) confirmed that she remembered the previous owners putting in Black Hills. These are putting on growth super fast.... new growth being nearly a foot in all directions. We're constantly correcting the previous owners landscape mistakes. We have 2 of these trees in our backyard. The left one is in too much shade (mostly by trees owned by neighbors) and is getting ugly on the inside of the tree. So, I did get hubby's ok to take this one out by next spring. This will be replaced with a shrub that can handle part shade. The one on the right is quickly outgrowing its spot.
So, in the short term (this week), I'll probably limb up this tree so you can mow the border around it. In the long term (within a year or two), we'll have to look to replace it.
Last month, I saw Picea mariana 'Golden' (Golden Black Spruce) at a nursery and really like it. The tag said slow growing, 10-15' wide. Is that what is pictured below:
Follow-Up Postings:
Melissa, First of all that is a very nice landscape setting you have to work with. I hate to think that the removal of that beautiful conifer is necessary but as you say it is quickly out growing its space. Forget about limbing up. That look you will not be happy with. I would again talk to Hubby to let you expand that circle 2 ft. In my opinion that will not destroy the design and buy you some time to think about a replacement. Take him out to dinner if he still is not receptive. If you want to go with a blue conifer, Picea pungens, then my first thought would be Picea pungens 'Sester Dwarf'. 15 ft.X 6ft. wide in 10 years give or take depending on your micro-climate. Check out my post...Picea pungens 'Sester Dwarf' photo gallery posted yesterday or Google it. There are others in the mix if you don't like this one Picea pungens 'Glauca 'Pendula' a weeper also comes to mind. Now you have something to think about. Dave |
I would hate to sacrifice a beautiful tree like that for the sake of some turf grass. You shouldn't have even asked 'Hubby' about widening the bed. If he didn't notice the tree out-growing the bed, he probably wouldn't have noticed a little widening of the bed. |

hey mel.. slummin in the conifer forum??.. lol review the link.. pay attention to annual growth rates.. and understand.. as trees .. they will grow at that rate.. for the rest of your life.. your lids life. and grandkids ... ALL size estimates.. in regard to conifers.. are in 10 years.. and in 20 they will be twice as big.. so that tag you saw ... 10 to 15 feet in 10 years.. means it will ... ONCE ESTABLISHED .... grow one to 1.5 feet per year .. in other words.. will be as big.. if not bigger.. than the one you want to get rid of ... back to the link.. i think you should look for dwarfs ... that grow 6 inches or less per year... so that in 10 years.. it will be 5 feet.. then 10 feet... etc ... once i get you to this point.. i ask.. what color would please you??? .. and then i would ask.. why a spruce... is there a reason you would forgo any other size appropriate conifers??? finally ... the next planting time for conifers.. is mid to late fall.. so you have plenty of time.. to get the plan all set ... WTH ??? why do you have a janet mills pic of a hosta.. isnt she the publisher of the AHS journal??? ken ps: plain old blue spruce are GIANT forest trees .. not for your backyard .... but there are some glorious dwarf versions ... |
Here is a link that might be useful: link
Check out some of the dwarf forms of Abies concolor or Abies lasiocarpa (see link) if you like blues. I prefer them over the blue spruces, but are harder to find around town. Golden black spruce is not all that slow growing, but seems to stay rather slender. |

Dave, I do like the Sesters Dwarf you suggested. I wonder if I could find a local source for it? And thank you for your kind words about my landscape. Just 4 years ago, it was just lawn, bare dirt and some poorly placed trees. Again, correcting the previous owners mistakes. Donn, hubby and I have an agreement that garden care is MY thing, lawn care is HIS. He's one of these yahoos that likes to have a nice big lawn, yet he doesn't really like to care for it. *rolls eyes*. We do, however, have a 5 year old and are hoping to adopt another child soon, so we do need to have some lawn...enough to kick a ball around. I am going to widen the hosta bed by a few feet, but that area where that healthy Black Hills is, he's kinda protective over it since the space between it and the birch in the foreground is open space to the neighbor and there's a little room for the ball to spill into their space. And, unfortunately, in order to get rid of the grass, he'd have to know about it... he'd see it in process. I could, however, let the tree kill the grass. It's happening with another Black Hills in the front yard. Ken... Slummin? Hardly! I just don't have the conifer bug like y'all do here! But you sure are smart folk! K. RE: Janet Mills pic. This was distributed with the Online Hosta Journal last December. You could download it as a desktop background. I've been looking at that pic for 6 months wanting to know what the tree is. Do you know? ginkgonut... I didn't know that firs look so much like spruce. Perhaps I should give them more consideration. |

now this cracks me up.. i didnt even see the pine needles in the hosta picture ... lol ... but that one is not powdery blue ... so you want a blue.. and a dragon eye [golden ghost if you can find it] .. thats two ... lol .. how far are you from chicago .. and the place at the link??? .. forget about the web.. time for a road trip .... go see them.. feel them .... smell them .. etc .. next proper planting time is fall ... ken |

That variegated tree looks like Douglas fir, of, a variegated selection. A replacement "blue spruce" ideal is Dax |
- Posted by thisismelissa z4a-S Twin Cities MN (My Page) on Sun, Jul 10, 11 at 14:53
Well, like I said, Ken, I like powdery blue, but I also like golds and bi-colors. And it appears that these variegated red pines fall into the bi-color catergory. Chicago is about 6-7 hours away. I wonder if there's a conifer specialist closer by. I have a feeling that this could be a tough search, even to find a dwarf blue spruce. |
A few others you might consider are R H Montgomery, Baby Blue Eyes, Misty Blue and Spring Blast for that springtime pop. I'm also a big fan of the aforementioned Picea engelmannii 'Bush's Lace'. I think it's a gorgeous tree. One last consideration of a tree with bright blue color but has more of an open feel would be one of the narrow blue deodoras like Sander Blue. Many can be found with as electric a blue color as any spruce but most have more of a whispy pendulus form than the rigid spruce. In time it will spread, but as you said 10-15 years from now that may not be an issue. mark |
deodoras for zone 4a would be short lived. Dax choice of Picea engelmannii 'Bush's Lace' would be a knockout. Dave |
Yep, that one is on my wishlist for next spring. So, what I want to know (and its problaby killing Ken right now) is how do you have that many hosta growing under a silver maple (at least it looks like one)? |

Have you been to Gertens in Eagan, MN and looked at their conifers? I've never been there but recall having heard they have a nice selection. Even if not to buy from, at least to get some ideas. BTW Tsuga canadensis 'Vermeulen Wintergold' would go nice in that shadier spot. Though listed at 6 inches per year, your climate would give it more like 4 inches a year. Gold in winter and light green by summer's end (a different type of two-toned effect). tj |
- Posted by thisismelissa z4a-S Twin Cities MN (My Page) on Mon, Jul 11, 11 at 23:43
tj... Gertens is about 25 minutes from me. I've been there 2-3 times already this year, but not in the last 6 weeks of so. Maybe a quick trip up there is in order. Or, at least a browse of their online catalog. I bought a tree-form Diablo Ninebark there last year, and besides the powdery mildew, it's growing fantastically! you have succeeded as a REAL gardener .. when the hosta peeps come on a tour .. and ignore the hosta .. to look at all the other things that are so unusual ... then you have a top of the line garden ... Ken, thanks for the kind words. I don't think my garden would ever be worthy of the national AHS convention. It's said that you need to have 45 minutes of interest to be on the tour. And while one or two of the eight on tour here in MN last year failed in that regard, I don't think I could beat them. I do not care for "ordinary", other than the Colorado Blue. But a dwarf blue may be my best solution. whaas... on the far left of the pic is a silver maple. They line my entire back lot. My hostas seem to grow in spite of them. I'm starting another garden under a huge silver maple (out of frame) and will likely put those hosta in SpinOut bags. The tree in the middle of the pic is a Box Elder.... I HATE those trees! But this one is on the property line. Last year, I took out another Box Elder (my portion of it anyway) and asked the neighbors if they wanted me to take out there portion... 4 pathetic trunks at a 45 degree (or less) angle to the ground. They declined. So, now, I'm stuck with a suckering stump. I digress. All, I appreciate your zeal for weeping types like Picea engelmannii 'Bush's Lace', but they are not for me (or hubby, for that matter), at least, not in this spot. For this location, I want to stick with something more upright. |

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
[OS] CHINA/US/ECON/GV - 7.24 - Clinton Assures China on U.S. Debt-Ceiling

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton reassured China, the top holder of
American treasuries, that the U.S. will resolve its impasse over the debt
ceiling and improve the country's long-term fiscal outlook.
"Many have questions about how the United States is going to resolve our
debt-ceiling challenge," Clinton said in Hong Kong today. The "political
wrangling" is part of democratic problem-solving, she said. "I am
confident that Congress will secure a deal on the debt ceiling and work
with President Obama to take steps to improve our long-term fiscal
The top U.S. diplomat made the remarks as talks over the debt ceiling
stalled again in Washington, sending the value of the U.S. dollar down and
gold to record highs. Failure to reach an agreement before Aug. 2 risks a
default and a cut in the nation's AAA credit rating. Chinese officials
have expressed confidence that an agreement will be reached.
Characterizing the debt debate as a short-term bump in the road, Clinton
held the U.S. "opportunity society" up as a model for the Asia-Pacific.
She said that requires attributes that "characterize healthy economic
competition not just in Asia but across the world: open, free, transparent
and fair."
Clinton noted that balancing the global economic order will require
changes from both the U.S. and in Asia. While the U.S. must save more and
borrow less, she said, Asia must do more to foster domestic demand.
"Countries in this region are grappling with challenges," Clinton said.
"But we are bullish on Asia's future. And while the United States is
facing its own challenges, make no mistake, we are bullish on America's
future, too."
Message to China
Her message, delivered on China's doorstep, is directed at the world's
second largest economy, its state-owned enterprises and a government
procurement policy that has favored local firms over foreign competitors,
said a State Department official who commented on condition of anonymity
because he wasn't authorized to speak on the record.
He emphasized that the message also applies to other U.S. competitors in
the region and the world.
Clinton stressed the need for countries that have benefited from the
global economy to abide by its rules. As China's economy becomes more
powerful, it has a greater obligation to follow those rules, said a second
State Department official, who also spoke on condition of anonymity
because he wasn't authorized to talk on the record.
Clinton referred indirectly to China's state-owned enterprises, saying
that it is essential to have a level playing field for all business. "We
seek an open system where a person anywhere can participate in markets
everywhere," she said.
Foreign Policy
Clinton's remarks reflect her increasing alignment of economic and foreign
policy. The Secretary has mobilized U.S. companies to help with
development projects and to support larger foreign policy goals, including
the stabilization of countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
And in comments around the world to business audiences, Clinton has
repeatedly drawn a link between foreign policy and U.S. jobs growth, a
central issue with unemployment now around 9 percent and a national
election looming next year.
"As we pursue recovery and growth, we are making economics a priority of
our foreign policy," Clinton said today. "Increasingly, economic progress
depends on strong diplomatic ties, and diplomatic progress depends on
strong economic ties."
Clinton met with Hong Kong leaders before her speech, including Chief
Executive Donald Tsang and leaders of Hong Kong's Legislative Council.
After her speech, she will travel to Shenzhen to meet China's State
Councilor Dai Bingguo.
Among other subjects, she will discuss North Korea, and will ask Dai to
deliver the message to the country's leaders that the U.S. expects to see
progress on nuclear issues before six-party talks can continue, the first
State Department official said.

One Scale of Spiritual Maturity
Years ago, one of the world's richest men, John D. Rockefeller, was asked, "How much money is enough?" He famously answered, "Just a little bit more."
American culture and certainly its economy are built on that principle: you need more than you've got. You need to earn more. You need to spend more to accumulate more and better stuff.
Church leaders recognize the deeper issues here, financial and spiritual. To take financial issues first, experts these days are attributing current economic difficulties to a number of things: bad mortgage lending practices, lack of regulatory oversight, and globalized market structures. Economic conditions are complicated and grim.
I'm reminded of the assessment of Alfred Kahn, Jimmy Carter's outspoken inflation-fighting czar in another financially troubled time, who said, "Anybody who isn't schizophrenic these days just isn't thinking clearly."
As I talked with church leaders about the financial issues they're dealing with, the word that kept coming up was debt. How to help people get out of debt. How to encourage generosity from people in debt. How much debt the church should assume.
One pastor pointed me to Proverbs 22:7. "The borrower is the slave of the lender." When you borrow money, it obligates you to work for someone else, giving them your earnings until the debt is paid off. If you want freedom, you've got to get out of debt.
This strikes close to home for me.
My grandfather 13 generations back, John Shelley, was about 20 years old when he came to a fairly new settlement called Jamestown in the year 1623. He couldn't afford the voyage to the New World. So he went into debt, becoming an indentured servant, essentially a slave who could earn his freedom after seven years of work.
Indentured to a landowner named Edward Blaney, John had to work in Blaney's tobacco fields and survive malaria, starvation, and occasional Indian attacks. After seven years, however, he gained his freedom and a few acres of land in Virginia.
I'm sure he celebrated the day he worked off his debt and was able to work his own land rather than Edward Blaney's. Debt served its purpose. It got him to the New World, but he worked diligently to be free of that debt.
Another financial issue that church leaders raised is "prudent vs. carefree." One one hand, the Bible says, "In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has" (Prov. 21:20). Another translation puts it this way: "Fools spend whatever they get."
And "Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it" (Prov. 13:11). That's prudence—making decisions based on their long-term consequences.
On the other hand, Jesus is clear: "Do not worry about your life, what you will eat, what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. ...

Take Two for July 11, 2013
Chicago teachers to rally against Teach for America
Grant Slater/KPCC
Students prepare to read a story with their teacher at the end of a year of classes at Stanley Mosk Elementary School.
This weekend in Chicago, there will be a rally protesting the Teach For America organization, comprised of teachers and former Teach for America alumni.
While it'll be the first national assembly aimed at organizing resistance to the organization, it's not the first point of friction between teachers and Teach for America. Is the conflict the same across the nation, and does it exist here in California?
Professor John Rogers with UCLA's Graduate School of Education and Information Studies joins the show to explain.
