Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)
Indy and his father – played by Sean Connery, no less – pilfer a motorcycle and sidecar to make their escape from the Nazis. The villains send an entire squad of motorcycle outriders after the Joneses – who promptly fend them off with nothing more than a pole. Spielberg's third Indy film may not quite match up to the peerless Raiders of the Lost Ark, but the director has a gift for bringing classic adventure serial fare to the big screen.

Founded in 1660, the Royal Society had expansive interests ranging from the new optics and astronomy to agriculture and new manufactures. The Society's committees on mechanics and the history of trades produced reports on contemporary products, including luxury goods. They explicitly aimed to improve such industries by consulting foreign manufacturers and domestic artisans.
Between 1660 and 1670, papers in the Society's Philosophical transactions addressed how to make silk, porcelain, varnishes, masonry, paper, leather, tapestry, parchment, enamels, engravings, and red glass. Many of these methods were observed while these men traveled across the globe securing trade agreements and importing new goods and were tweaked for the English market.
Henry and Charles Howard, grandsons of the earl of Arundel, were members of the Royal Society, helping to connect the new institution with networks of exchange in Europe, the New World, Africa, and India. In 1668, Henry Howard undertook a mission to Tangier for Charles II to negotiate a commercial treaty with the King of Morocco. For the Society, this mission was an opportunity to learn, explore, and bring back ancient manuscripts and new goods.
Developing New Trades
The Royal Society's committee on the History of Trades produced reports on contemporary production of luxury goods. Some of the papers that were presented to the Society included,
The Society displayed a continuing interest in producing porcelain. And in the early volumes of the Philosophical transactions, Henry Oldenburg, presented "An intimation of a was found in Europe to make China dishes."
Porcelain had been imported to England from the East as early as the 1620s, but it was only later that England attempted to produce it domestically.

Hi there! I planted a peach tree in november. I'm thinking to cut the twigs off to give the tree a good start in spring. Is that okay? When is the best time to prune (planted) peach trees? I will post a picture soon. Thanks! (zone= 7a) |

I understand it to be the same as apples; during dormancy, preferably late Winter. I could easily be wrong, so hopefully someone who knows better, provides better advice. |
Ok, thanks for helping! |

a lot of tree peeps.. rather that fruiters.. would suggest.. that on a tree planted less than a month ago.. that it not be pruned for a year or two ... think of every leaf as a food making machine .. to establish and grow a root system.. to produce fruit.. as soon as possible ... crimminey man.. you planted it less than a month ago.. 6 weeks max.. and you already want to start amputating the thing.. how about we wait until next fall/winter ... as they say in they movies.. put down the pruners.. and step away .. lol .. subject to your pic.. good luck ken ps: on a dormant late fall planting.. i always fear i will cut off the one branch that will actually live thru a MI winter ... so i NEVER prune that fast ... |
- Posted by Dzitmoidonc 6 (My Page) on Sat, Dec 22, 12 at 11:54
With peach trees, it is actually best to prune the first years. This will set the frame of the tree since you only get a dozen years from the tree anyways. However, it is not recommended that they be pruned until spring. Peach trees should be pruned when actively growing. This will heal the wound faster and forestall any pathogens, and also wounded trees have a higher rate of winter injury. |
So, as I can see are here different comments. When it's spring I will just prune dead wood and very thin branches. Tnx for sharing! |

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
Chocolate covered strawberries make an easy and elegant dessert or after dinner treat to have with coffee. You can substitute white or milk chocolate for semi-sweet, or experiment with double-dipping the strawberries in different chocolates to vary the flavour and appearance. Always use ripe strawberries and be sure they're cold and dry before dipping in the chocolate.Ingredients
- 18 large strawberries with stems and green caps on, washed and patted dry
- 500g white, milk or dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
- Toothpicks
- 1 grapefruit, cut in half
- Cover a Swiss roll or any rimmed pan with baking paper or foil.
- Optionally place Styrofoam block in the centre, or the two halves of the grapefruit.
- Insert a toothpick into the stem end of each strawberry or hold the stem.
- Melt the chocolate.
- Dip the strawberry into the chocolate, coating ¾ of the lower part of the berry, being careful not to cover the stem.
- Scrape the side of the bowl on the way out. (Leave the green cap and some of the red berry showing for a more decorative finished product). You may have to dip the strawberries twice for a thicker chocolate coating - wait until the first coating has hardened, then dip again.
- Place fruit on paper-lined pan. You can spear the free end of the toothpick into the piece of Styrofoam or if you can't get hold of some, the outside of a half a grapefruit, to allow the strawberry to dry upside down.
- Allow coating to set.
- If desired, after the chocolate hardens, dip the tip in a contrasting chocolate or white chocolate may be drizzled over the dark chocolate for a fancier look.
- After the chocolate hardens, remove the strawberries from the toothpicks.
- You can also refrigerate until chocolate is set, but remove as soon as chocolate is hardened, unless the weather or room is extremely hot.
- Never freeze chocolate coated strawberries.

First Developer Release of OpenSolaris "Project Indiana"
Just over four months ago, Sun's chief open source strategist, Ian Murdock, revealed the first details of plans for an open source variant of Sun's Solaris operating system. Now the first developer version has been released.
The first major release of the "OpenSolaris Project: Indiana" is due for next spring at the earliest. This pre-release version is designed to give developers a sneak preview of the open system.
Project Indiana is a binary distribution for x86 systems based on the OpenSolaris source code. The live CD with a Caiman-based installer includes Gnome 2.20 as the desktop environment. Package management is handled by the OpenSolaris Image Package System. ZFS is used as the filesystem. The Distribution Constructor ToolKit gives developers the ability to create their own distributions.
An initial screenshot gives users a sneak preview of Sun's Project Indiana.
The developer version was not published as Project Indiana, but under the title of OpenSolaris Developer Preview. Ian Murdock reveals the reasons for this in his mail to the Open-Solaris list. The CD image is available for downloading as of now, and is released under the OpenSolaris Binary License.

Soulja Boy posted a new vlog yesterday to explain why he loves it when people tell him to suck a dick.
Is this true? YouTube announced in April that it had paid out one million dollars to its user partners according to an unpublished sliding scale based on page views, or whatever. So there's probably some truth to it. But 15 cents per comment? No. No way. He also claims that "Crank Dat" is up to 400 million views, which is only off by 372 million. I think it's safe to say that Soulja Boy has made some money from the YouTube partner user program, but not enough to be Nick Cannon's Wild 'N Out about.
But more importantly, I believe in free speech. Now, I don't hate Soulja Boy, although I think he lucked out with "Crank Dat," which was DECENT, and every song since then has been MIDDLING to HORRIBLE. (And I've never been a huge fan of artists who have to resample their popular work into their new songs to remind you that they don't suck.) Nevertheless, we all have to take our lumps, and why should Soulja Boy profit from the free exchange of ideas? That is why I would like to open up the comments section of this post to a FREE Soulja Boy discussion. That's right, you will not be charged for your Soulja Boy comment at videogum.com, and he will not earn a cent off of you telling him to suck your dick. Soulja Boy, tell him.

I don't understand why all of you people are hating on soulja boy. The dude is really creative with his songs. They are actually pretty throwed. If you really pay attention to his songs you would actually see the genius in them. And anyways i doubt that any of you would do better l.o.l
MoMurderah | Posted on Nov 4th, 2008 0
Genius? That is the stupidest thing i have heard since "Crank Dat". He talks, not raps, about coming on the backs of girls and sticking a cape to their backs! Although this concept is creative, its fuckin' retarded. Also, YOU!!!, What the fuck is that?
Watch me YOU!! Now watch me YOU!!!. I can honestly say he is one of the worst "rappers", and I use that term leniently 'cause he sucks at rapping. If you don't believe me listen to his other songs such as " Booty Meat, She Thirsty, and Sidekick" They are completely idiotic and bring nothing new to the hip-hop or rap table. Seriously, I think the guy who made Throw Some Cheese is more of genius than Soulja Boy is

I recently had my 3½-year-old nephew and nearly-two niece over for dinner. In deference to the kids we had pizza, but it was "grown-up" pizza with fresh spinach, sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese, along with familiar chicken.
I expected at least a question of "Aunt Meli, what is this?" about the spinach and wondered how to explain it in an exciting way, but my nephew happily wolfed his piece down without a comment.
That is, without a comment about the pizza. When I brought their after-dinner fruit over to the table, he looked at the giraffe-splotched peel and said "Yucky banana."
Ideal banana ripeness is a matter of personal preference that evokes strong feelings in some people. It's been a topic of intense discussion at Packer HQ on more than one ocassion.
I love bananas, but I prefer not to eat one until the peel has at least a hint of brown freckling. I didn't know how my nephew liked his bananas, so I hastily came up with an explanation for the browning skin.
"Oh, that just means it's really tasty," I said, and started peeling it to show him it was still OK.
Woe is me, there was a brown spot toward the end of his half, and he, being a sharp-eyed child, noticed.
"There's a spot."
I have some friends whose mom used to tell them the dark spots in their bananas were brown sugar.
"That spot is extra sweet," I told him. And he ate every bit of his half.
Dinnertime crisis averted.
True, my niece did pick off every fleck of spinach she saw on her piece of pizza, but she ate the tomatoes, which I thought was good work for a person her age. She ate her banana slices without voicing any disapproval.
Next time they come over for dinner, maybe I'll get her to try spinach prepared a different way — without first dousing it in French dressing.
What's your take? Leave a comment and tell us your opinion.

St. Francis of Assisi Church,
St. Francis Assisi, Staunton, façade |
St. Frances Assisi, Staunton, interior |
St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Staunton, designed by local architect T. J. Collins, is a late or second Gothic Revival style building inspired by thirteenth century English and French Gothic models. It was built 1895-1897, and although it has been renovated several times, the original design is well-preserved. The walls are constructed of Pennsylvania ashlar green stone, sometimes said to honor the Irish origin of the congregation. Two asymmetrical towers and a large rose window dominate the façade.
The rose is inscribed in a pointed arch similar to the arched main portal, which is recessed with cast foliate decoration in the archivolts. The larger left hand tower is opened up with interlace arched tracery. The interior consists of a wide nave and aisles with elaborate ribbed groin vaulting. The nave vaulting appears English because of the ridge rib running down the center. With the removal of the inner colonettes supporting the aisles vaults, the vaults terminate in gilded bosses, as pendant vaults used in Perpendicular style English Gothic churches. The choir has a polygonal apse and multiple moldings defining the sections of the pumpkin half-dome.

"These employees would have made the journey to our new home with us and we wanted to do something special for these team members," according to Bill Turner, director of assembly operations for Whirlpool Cleveland. "Each individual has their own plaque that will forever be a part of the Cleveland site."
Turner's words came in front of a subdued group of about 40 workers, many of whom were friends and close co-workers with the deceased.
Described as an Employee Remembrance Area, the respectful memorial is located near the flagpole at the entrance of the cavernous plant. It includes the stone memorial whose inscription reads, "In Remembrance of Our Fellow Team Members. Thank You for Your Hard Work, Dedication and Service to Whirlpool & The Cleveland Site. Your Contributions Will Always Be Remembered."
Flanking the memorial are smaller stones with individual plaques bearing the names of the employees. The plaques were designed and manufactured in-house in the plant's Tool & Die Shop. The stones were provided through Mitchell Crisp and Crisp Memorials.
Along a concrete walkway leading to the plant's entrance are commemorative stone benches honoring the history of the companies dating back to 1879 that preceded the Whirlpool name which came to Cleveland in March 2006 with the acquisition of the former Maytag Corporation. The benches also pay tribute to thousands of retirees because the workers and the collection of companies serve as a foundation to the new LEED-Certified plant on Benton Pike.
One bench is dedicated to U.S. veterans — many of whom have worked for Whirlpool and its predecessors — whose sacrifices have kept America a free land, thereby securing opportunity for industries to grow and become integral parts of their communities, Turner explained.
Monday's solemn dedication was held outdoors at the memorial at the close of the day's first shift.
The manufacturing leader pointed to the origin of the memorial.
"After the passing of one of our employees, a fellow employee came to me and asked if we could do something at the new plant as a token of appreciation to remember our friends and employees who pass away," Turner explained.
The employee's death had been reported in the company newsletter — What's Cookin' — however, the associate who approached Turner "... wondered if we could do something to further honor our co-workers," he said.
"It was a great idea and one that we wanted to pursue," Turner cited. "We put together a team to come up with an idea to honor our employees and the history of our facility. The finished product of that team is what we see here today."
Memorial honorees, all of whom were active Whirlpool employees at the time of their death, are Tina Smith-Cobb, 14 years of service; C.L. Hamilton, 49 years; Tyler Westmoreland, two years; Bobby McGill, 40 years; Shannon Fowler, one year; Jimmy Kersey, 44 years; Tara Eller, six years; Kenneth Daily Jr., 14 years; Brian Harper, 23 years; Jeff Sherrill, 22 years; and Ron Lewis, 29 years.
During the dedication, Turner read aloud the list of names and paid tribute to their commitment to Whirlpool, and to their influence in maintaining the appliance manufacturing legacy that has become a major part of Cleveland and Bradley County history.
From Monday's dedication going forward, the names of active Whirlpool Cleveland Division employees who pass away will be memorialized with a plaque as part of the Employee Remembrance Area.
Although the dedication focused on employees, it also recognized the history of the existing Whirlpool Cleveland Division site and the contributions of each individual company. Some of the names include Hardwick Stove Company, founded in 1879; Dixie Foundry, founded in 1916, and whose identity evolved over the decades to Dixie Products, Magic Chef Company and Maytag Cleveland Cooking Products. Maytag purchased Hardwick Stove in the early 1980s, and later bought Magic Chef in 1986. Whirlpool acquired Maytag 20 years later.
Turner pointed to many changes Whirlpool has made in the local manufacturing operation in the last six years while converting it into a premium cooking products facility. But of all the changes, none is as significant as the Labor Day 2010 announcement by Whirlpool that it would build a new plant in Cleveland just a few miles from the existing King Edward Avenue site, Turner said.
"This magnificent facility has provided us the ability to continue our rich heritage in Cleveland for many years to come," he stressed.
"Over the years, we have gone from using wooden crates and sand to create molds to using robotics and computer-controlled processes to make cooking products," Turner reminisced. "The Cleveland site has a lot to be proud of and we would like to thank the companies that believed in our workforce and continued to invest right here in Cleveland."
He added, "In return, the people who have worked here over the years and made these changes happen have made today possible. The companies and people that have made Cleveland a great place to work will always be remembered and we are all grateful."
Whirlpool team members who developed the remembrance concept, alongside Turner, were Carolyn Webb, Judy Riddle, Ed Curtis, Paul Miller, Darlene King, Christy Corbin, Chrissy George, Josephine Greene, Lorri Greene and Wesley Helton.

Ford's loss could be someone else's gain.
Mazda is currently producing the kind of cars we love at Automobile Magazine--affordable, stylish products with real character. Just think of the outgoing Protege, the 6, and the RX-8. Without Martin Leach, those cars never would have happened. The forty-six-year-old engineer shook up Mazda's R&D and product-development processes from 1997 to 2000 as managing director of product planning, design, and programs. Leach also has been responsible for Ford's product offensive in Europe, having served as vice president of product development, then as president and chief operating officer prior to his sudden departure from the company last August.
It might seem strange that we have given our Man of the Year award to a car company executive who is currently without a job, but Leach is exactly the kind of person car companies need, and his departure is symptomatic of the current problems at the blue oval. He's a certified car nut, one of the very few visionaries of the trade, an excellent engineer and driver, a pragmatic team player, and a genuinely nice guy.
So why is he jobless? "I threw in the towel because Ford of Europe, which I ran for almost a year, was drawn into the political ping-pong initiated by Ford worldwide," explains the amateur racing driver and part-time soccer coach. "I am hugely sad about the way things went, having dedicated all my working life to this company--but these days everybody seems to be out to get everybody else at the top of the house." A Ford employee since 1979, Leach left Cologne with the intention of taking over the helm at Fiat Auto from Giancarlo Boschetti, but in the end, the post went to Herbert Demel because Leach failed to wriggle himself out of his Ford contract, which allegedly contains a two-year no-compete clause.
During his twenty-four-year tenure with Ford, the Australian-born engineer's responsibilities were wide and varied. Asked to name his personal career highlights, he answers: "One really big achievement was to take the European commercial vehicle division to the top of the table. The doubling of the U.S. light-truck business falls into a similar category. I am also very proud of my years at Mazda, where we developed a new product philosophy and brand strategy that was highlighted by exciting cars like the Mazda 6 and the rotary-engined RX-8. Last but not least, I had begun implementing the so-called 45 in 5 strategy at Ford of Europe, a plan to launch forty-five fresh products between 2002 and 2007, starting with the Fusion, the Streetka, and the C-Max."

Keep Lipstick Marks Off Your Drinking Glass
It happens all the time: The lipstick which you've worked hard to apply just right (careful blotting included!) coats your drinking glass or coffee mug the moment you take a sip, leaving your lips for good. Fortunately, there are ways to prevent the annoying marks.
Of course, a standard plastic straw is the age-old remedy, but if you're in a pinch and much prefer drinking straight from the source (after all, you can save your straws for preventing knots and extending plants), here's a funny trick to try: Simply—and discreetly, of course—lick your glass before you drink. Lip color won't stick to a wet rim.

Product Focus: Interface: Net Effect
The Net Effect collection of modular carpet tiles from Interface evokes the feeling of the ocean, while actually helping to protect it.Working with the yarn supplier Aquafil, Interface collects discarded fishing nets from villages in the Philippines and recycles them to create new nylon for the carpet tiles.
The collection was born from a conservation project called Net-Works, a partnership between Interface and the Zoological Society of London. Launched in the Danajon Bank region of the Philippines in 2012, the project aims to help curb the growing environmental problem of discarded fishing nets that endanger marine life and habitats, and also to address the company's goals for post-consumer nylon recycling and closed-loop manufacturing.
By developing a local reclamation system for fishing nets, the program also provides a source of income for some of the world's poorest fishing communities and could be a long-term solution to alleviating poverty in those places.
Debuting at NeoCon® in June, the Net Effect collection was designed by David Oakey, owner of David Oakey Designs, and includes three square variations and three skinny plank styles that capture the great fluctuations of the sea. The textures of the square patterns are meant to evoke the moment when waves wash over the shore, while the plank styles capture the fluidity of water with more linear patterns.
All six styles are intended to be intertwined with each other, just like swirling currents in the ocean, and can be arranged to form a continuous pattern or a series of borders and insets. A color palette of two rich blues and six neutrals explores the depths of the sea and hues found along a coast, such as sun-bleached driftwood and stone.

Nov 22, 2012 1:14 PM by Associated Press
FRESNO, Calif. (AP) - California officials plan to quarantine an area in the state's citrus belt where a pest capable of killing citrus trees was found.
California Department of Food and Agriculture spokesman Steve Lyle said Tuesday that the state is working to determine the quarantine's boundaries in Tulare County. The quarantine will go into effect next week.
An Asian citrus psyllid was discovered last week in a commercial citrus orchard in the county. The psyllid can spread a bacteria capable of killing citrus trees.
Officials were not able to determine whether the psyllid found near Strathmore was carrying the bacteria.
Lyle said that in other psyllid quarantines, only commercially cleaned and packed citrus fruit may be moved out of a quarantine area.

How do the oceans affect the weather in Colorado?
The Earth has one big ocean that is interconnected. The temperature, salinity, and density of ocean water and global winds and air temperatures are caused by the Sun and geologic processes. These factors cause the ocean water to circulate with basins and between the water and atmosphere.

Lecture Abstract: This presentation will explore the physical processes believed to be producing the observed drastic reduction in Arctic sea ice, emphasizing the interactions between sea ice and atmospheric processes. A key metric for the interaction with sea ice is the surface energy fluxes, and the primary atmospheric processes modulating surface energy fluxes include cloud radiative effects, atmospheric turbulent effects, and their linkages to storms. Direct radiative effects by greenhouse gases along with oceanographic and cryospheric mechanisms will also be discussed briefly. Field programs focused on understanding these processes demonstrate how the science is being advanced and the logistical difficulties involved. The explanations for the change in Arctic sea ice incorporate the basic radiative and global circulation concepts discussed in the first lecture by Dr. Fairall.

The fifth installment of the Williams Field-Higley showdown had all the anticipation and elements of a legitimate rivalry: There were region title and playoff seeding implications, a standing-room-only crowd, and plenty of electricity in the air well before kickoff.
But a week's worth of buildup was deflated in only a matter of minutes.
No. 3 Williams Field jumped out of the gates fast and furious, before cruising home to a 42-22 victory over host Higley in a Division III, Section III contest Friday night.
The score wasn't indicative of the lopsided nature of the game.
Williams Field (9-1, 5-1) jumped out to a 28-0 lead just a few minutes into the second quarter with a powerful display of speed and precision on offense.
Running back Jacob Anderson scorched the Higley defense with 212 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns for William's field. Three of Anderson's TD's came in the first half, including runs of 59, 4, and 69 yards.
Quarterback Jeddediah Fagg was equally as effective through the air for Williams Field, throwing for 160 of his 203 yards in the first half, including a 70-yard score to Josh Page midway through the first quarter.
"We did what we wanted to do tonight by scoring early," Williams Field coach Steve Campbell said. "(Higley) isn't used to coming from behind."
Higley (7-3, 4-1) was already without starting quarterback Tyler Bloom. Williams Fields' defense effectively shut down the Higley rushing attack for most of the evening. After falling behind 28-0 early in the second quarter, it was Higley's special teams which temporarily stopped the bleeding. After finally forcing a Williams Field punt, Higley's James Garcia broke through and blocked the attempt, giving Higley the ball at Williams Field's 5-yard line. Two plays later, fullback Mason Johnson scored for Higley. The two-point conversion made it 28-8 Williams' Field.
Higley's defense was able to keep Williams Field out of the end zone until halftime. But Anderson and Fagg led the Black Hawks on an eight-play, 80-yard scoring drive to start the third quarter. Anderson added his fourth score of the night from 2 yards out, giving Williams Field a commanding 35-8 lead.
Josh Page added an 11-yard scoring run of his own in midway through the fourth quarter for a 42-8 Williams Field lead
Higley backup quarterback Bayley Cook tossed a pair of late touchdowns to Nick Colson and Trent Gilbert to cap the scoring.
Entering the contest, Higley stood at No. 9 in the power point rankings. Williams Field will host a first-round game next Friday night.

"Optimal and profitable" route for light train from Dorval to downtown Montreal
Now that the project to improve public transit service between Trudeau Airport and downtown Montreal is back on track, the borough of Saint-Laurent has put forward a proposal for a light train that would travel through its territory, specifically via Technoparc Montréal, just north of the airport.

Blame it on your brain: Salt and hypertension
An international research team led by scientists at McGill has found that excessive salt intake "reprograms" the brain, interfering with a natural safety mechanism that normally prevents the body's arterial blood pressure from rising. While the link between salt and hypertension is well known, scientists until now haven't understood how high salt intake increased blood pressure.

This slutty blonde is ready and waiting for you to fill her up with all that you have. But watch out, she might take your head off when it`s over. This commanding hottie knows what she wants and is here to get it. She wants to be watched, she wants to tease, and she wants a big hard cock in her hands. She`ll bend over a chair and even get down on the floor to give you a good look at juicy ass and steamy pussy, and you`ll wish you were that thong that is riding up her crotch. One final look at her fishnet stockings and black thong and you`ll agree that she`s worth all this teasing.As she slinks around on the floor like a sex crazed cat, you will be begging her to reach up and untie that shimmery black top s that it drops to the floor. Revealing a nice set of knockers, her perfect body looks even better. But that`s not all she has up her sleeve. In order to get you to show her your cock, she`ll spread her legs wide open, giving you a good look at her pink pleasure zone. You better do what she says.

The Clippers did whatever they wanted Thursday night, swarming the Brooklyn Nets 123-84 at Staples Center.

Oh, they're lovely, Tammy! |
lucky you...my poor roses are still fighting for survival (during spring!) night after night of freezing temps |
- Posted by KSGreenman 6a (My Page) on Sun, Apr 1, 12 at 10:32
Here in eastern KS my first official bloom opened today--all my roses are potted and spend the winter in an unheated garage so may be a tad earlier than those roses planted outside full time. I have several buds showing color (in fact 'Reine des violettes' has been for a couple of weeks but it looks like its going to ball), but the first to open was "Sophie's perpetual". Weeell, actually 'spice drop' was, but since it spent some time indoors under lights when I discovered it was actually a zone 8 rose, I don't count it as "official". |
Greenman, you might want to browse over on the Rose Gallery and see what has been blooming in southeast Kansas for the past week. So far I have in bloom the following: Home Run, William Shakespeare 2000, Mortimer Sackler, and Double Knock Out. In bud and nearly ready to burst into bloom any day now: Eden climber and Mayflower. Would love to see your Reines des Violettes. I've never had roses blooming this early. I usually think of mid- to late- May as prime spring bloom. Tammy, your Eutin is way ahead of mine. Must go outside and give mine a pep talk! Love this time of the year! Kate |

My weekend plans include trying to sell some of my unused furniture at a community garage sale, a trip to IKEA in Phoenix and a possible closet makeover. We'll see :)
But before all of that, let's start with the 11th edition of Fabulous Finds Friday with the Fizz Clock from Chiasso:
[ Image via Chiasso ]
The Fizz Clock is a steal at $38 and I love the contrast of the red hands against the white base. It would look great in any room and especially if it was mounted on a dark wall!
The second fabulous find is the Bejeweled Stripe Pillow Cover from West Elm:
[ Image via West Elm ]
Metallic sequins, stripes and circles - this pillow has it all! It's just $34 for the cover (insert sold separately) and would add a little extra modern glamour to your couch or your bed and who doesn't love a little extra bling?!
Next up is the Pivot Tealight Holder from Z Gallerie:
[ Image via Z Gallerie ]
I must admit I've had my eye on this tealight holder for a while now and since the priced dropped down to $7.99, I think I'm going to grab a few for myself and a couple extras to keep as gifts! Wouldn't it look great sitting on my new fireplace mantel? Hmmm...
The fourth fabulous find is the Oso Dinnerware from CB2:
[ Image via CB2 ]
I lovvve this dinnerware! The dinner plates are on sale for $3.95/each, the salad plates are on sale for $2.95/each and the bowls are on sale for $2.95/each. For $9.85 a set (less than $40 for four sets), you can have some fun new dinnerware that you can mix in with your existing set! It'd make a great gift for new homeowners :)
Last but not least is ELLE Decor Pillar Candleholder from Kohl's:
[ Image via Kohl's ]
I know, right? I'll be the first to admit that I was a bit surprised at all of the awesome home decor pieces Kohl's is carrying these days and this candleholder is no exception. I picked one of these up about a month ago and it is HUGE! It's on sale for $29.99 (from $59.99) and it's fabulous! It's made out of stoneware and is pretty fragile so if you have little ones, it's probably best to keep it out of reach (especially if you're planning on burning a candle in it).
What did you think of this weeks Fabulous Finds Friday? What would you like to see included next week?

Privacy Policy
Inverted Petri Dishes
Name: Ken Status: Student Grade: 9-12 Location: WA Country: United States Date: January 2005
Why are petir dishes inverted for incubation?
If they are incubated right side up, moisture condenses on the lid and drips down on the surface of the agar which causes individual bacterial colonies to spread and mix with each other.
Ron Baker. Ph.D.
Two reasons:
1. To minimize evaporation of water.
2. To minimize contamination from extraneous bacteria.
In either case the water or contaminant has to diffuse up and around the inverted petri dish and cover. This diffusion is a slow process in the absence of strong convection of air.
Vince Calder
Condensation tends to build up as bacteria metabolize and the warm humid atmosphere of an incubator also adds to it. This prevents drops of liquid from dripping onto the surface of the plate and causing bacterial colonies to be spread around.
Why indeed? Well, it turns out that moisture often condenses on the lid of the Petri dish. If drops of this water drip off of the lid and onto the agar surface where the colonies are growing, the water can make a mess by mixing the different bacterial colonies together.

Far as I know none of the license holders have received their mother plants yet. My commercial BB friend has purchased a license, in fact was the first one to do so and still has not heard yet. The demand for these plants is going to be huge. The growers say it will replace Emerald and Jewel. It could be 5 years till they are available to the public if they ever are. |
Don't know where on gulf coast you are but some of the low chill varieties may bloom too early there and be subject to freeze damage. Chilling and spring freeze danger are big concerns in FL and surrounding areas. For U pick you need a number of varieties to lengthen the harvest season. The state universities should have a lot of info on what varieties are suitable for various areas. There are many other considerations all critical for a profitable enterprise. |

The nation is grieving with families of the fallen after Thursday's military massacre at Fort Hood -- and many have two questions: "Why?" and "How?"
A moment of silence was held Friday afternoon exactly 24 hours after the shooting rampage started.
Military installations across the U.S. and around the world participated. President Barack Obama has also ordered flags on federal buildings lowered to half staff until Veterans Day in honor of the victims.
The tragedy left 13 people dead and 30 others wounded -- including the suspected shooter, Army psychiatrist Nidal Malik Hasan.
Hasan's alleged actions have sparked questions and even concern of motive.
CBN News Anchor/Reporter Lee Webb offered his heartfelt comments about the Fort Hood shooting and the courageous troops it impacted.

Aki/English > Security > Pakistan: Taliban say they killed former ISI officer for 'betraying' Muslims
Pakistan: Taliban say they killed former ISI officer for 'betraying' Muslims
last update: April 06, 17:43
Islamabad 6 April (AKI) - The Taliban in Pakistan said they killed a former Pakistani intelligence officer because he betrayed Muslims by working for his country's spy agency.
Tarar was killed by his captors in January.
Sultan Amir Tarar — better known as Col Imam — who helped the Taliban rise to power in Afghanistan in the 1990s, "is only one hypocrite who has been made to meet his fate, whereas it is actually the responsibility of the Taliban to make a list of those horrible criminals who have betrayed conflicts among Mujahideen," a statement said, according to SITE Intelligence, a US international terrorist tracking organisation based in Bethesda, Maryland.
The statement was released in Urdu, English and Arabic, according to SITE.
The Taliban's statement was a response to the Pakistan army's pamphlet it recently distributed in Northern Waziristan in which it accused the militants of defaming Islam by killing Tarar.
The Taliban in February distributed a video of Tarar's execution in which insurgent commander Hakimullah Mehsud orders the killing.
Tarar was abducted along with his fellow ISI officer Khalid Khawaja and a British journalist Asad Qureshi in March last year. Khawaja was killed soon after the kidnapping. Qureshi and Khan were released in September 2010.
