What does everyone use to hold down shade cloth over hoops? I have a frost blanket I was thinking of using as a shade cloth (it is green) but I am not sure how to anchor it down. Rocks? Pins? Are there special clamps you are supposed to use?
Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I normally use U-shaped landscape staples aka anchor pins that are sold in the garden centers right beside the landscape fabric. I use them for everything...landscape fabric, floating row cover, shade cloth if it comes all the way down to the ground, and to hold my drip-irrigation t-tape in place. Usually, when you buy a roll of landscape fabric, a certain number of these U-shaped pins come with it, but then they also sell them in plastic bags, usually right beside the landscape fabric. I have bought them--maybe a dozen or two in plastic bags--or in a large quantity like 60 or 70 in a box or bag. I'll link an example of the kind of metal pin I'm talking about. Some stores sell green plastic ones, or biodegradeable ones. If the shade fabric is suspended over something tall, like a row of tomato plants, I use many clothes pins, or zip-ties, to attach the fabric to the tops of the cages or other support structure that I'm using. If I have hoops over the plants with the shade cloth over the hoops, but then the shade cloth doesn't reach down to the ground, I use small bungee cords. It depends on what I have in that area to attach the cords to. You also can use lengths of electrical conduit, 1 x 2 lumber, etc. laid on top of the shade cloth. When you use floating row cover that has to be secured to the ground to keep bugs from crawling under it, it is important that what you use keep the cloth securely on the ground, but with shade cloth, as long as it doesn't whip around so much that it is beating up the plants, it does not have to be as tightly secured. There are various kinds of devices made to be used with shade cloth and row cover and they are easier to find online at places that sell these materials than to find in stores. I used to buy them at Lowe's in smaller quantities, but since I buy so many of them, I just order a box of 1000 online and then they last me a few years. Dawn |

I make much of my supplies fron scrap lumber or some other kind of scrap I pick up. I have an advantage over many of you, that is being retired. I have more time to waste (or play) with junk that I find. I have not used shade cloth of row cover yet, but plan to. Larry |
Like Dawn stated there are many options and I use several different methods. Then it seems every year I change something a little. This year the sweet potatoes that I was planting in mid July wasn't surviving with the plastic containers around them or even just covered lightly with mulch. I ended up using the squares I had cut to use on the top of my cages with a small limb next to the plant and made a small teepee. I never lost another plant. On them I just laid a few objects the wind wouldn't blow away on top of the corners in 3-4 places. On shade cloth or floating row cover it depends on whether I'm taking it to the ground or not. And also how the cloth/cover is laying. If laying flat across the top of a cage the shade cloth can be held with a few pieces of light wire as it will let some wind through and doesn't create the resistance that row cover does. They make some special attachments that work well but I don't use them often. If the cover is touching the ground I will usually throw some dirt on top in a few areas and it will hold it down. Fast,easy and cheap. If not touching the ground I advise using something to keep the area you are pulling on from ripping out. One example is here: http://www.territorialseed.com/product/11130/171 . Another can be seen at the link I will attach below. You can make them also. This might give you some ideas. Jay |

This was my first time to use a shade for my tomatoes and I'm just trying to keep them alive, we placed 3 cattle panels and made them arch , I thought I would have some beans or vines that would make the shade for the tomatoes, but didn't get those planted and so I took some old sheets and used a hognose pliers with the hooks that fit it and attached the sheets to the cattle panel. It makes a nice shade and was easy to attach. Those pliers are found in a lumber yard or a place that has cattle supply. And it was real easy to do, I can still walk under it to pick tomatoes.

Thank you for the wonderful replies and great ideas! |
Ezzirah, I mailed floating row cover to you on August 1, 2012, and today the post office delivered it back to me with a note that the house at the address I sent it to is a vacant house as of 8/11/12. I think maybe I incorrectly copied your address down onto the box when I was addressing it. I didn't keep the email containing your snail mail address, so if you still want the floating row cover, please email me your snail mail address again and I'll mail it again. Thanks, Dawn |

That is weird. I typed in the right address in the email. I will email it to you again. You are so kind for doing all this! |
It has happened before when some of us have been sending stuff to Carol. I just think that the USPS is crazy. Or, I copied it down wrong from e-mail. It could have been me....but I am betting it was the USPS. |

Bunny Williams Transforms a Park Avenue Penthouse
The famed decorator updates her signature style for a pair of loyal clients
By Kathleen Hackett
Neither strictly modern nor classically traditional—more Albert Hadley than Sister Parish (the legendary design duo with whom Williams began her career)—her decoration of the 1,500-square-foot space inspired the designer to choose a different term for her approach. "It's transitional," she says, "which means that when someone walks in here in 25 years, they won't be able to tell when it was done." After gutting what was once a handful of traditional rooms that had belonged to an elderly couple who lived there for decades, Williams first focused on the envelope. "I wanted it to be as architecturally interesting as the floor downstairs," she says, referring to the muscular crown moldings throughout. "Flat ceilings and no moldings just didn't seem right. It had to be something edgier." Her clients, whom Williams credits with inspiring her to be as inventive as she could, loved the idea of exposed beams, a concept Williams ran with, although in a surprising direction. To forge a connection between the interior and the wraparound terrace, she installed blue glass on the ceiling to mimic the sky and added architectural detail with a framework of tailored zinc beams. "It took us 20 tries to get the size of the bolts in them right," she says with a laugh. More zinc spans the central wall in the living room, surrounding the fireplace and flat-screen television above it. The floors are laid with slabs of honed pink granite, and mica-flecked plaster coats the walls.
It's a mix that, in the wrong hands, could leave a place cold. But warmth is in Williams's DNA, and once she built out the bones of the space, the rest was a matter of keeping the design simple while piling on texture. "My client had very strong opinions and was able to verbalize the feeling she wanted, which is a gift," says Williams. "She has a wonderful appreciation for patina." Good thing, given that her decorator thought nothing of flanking the entry to her study with a pair of battered 19th-century American fluted columns with ornate Ionic capitals and using an African woman's dance stool as a drinks table next to an Italian Art Moderne chair. It was only when Williams homed in on the 1960s Lucite-legged resin cocktail table—perfect for the living room—that her client raised an eyebrow. "When you've been in this business as long as I have, there's only one real rule to follow: Buy pieces that are beautiful, no matter their age," Williams says. "I never would have looked at that table 20 years ago, but it's essential to see pieces anew, to refresh your eye." And her eyes are always open. The powder room wall covering—an album of family photos printed on glazed canvas scrawled with white gold—was inspired by grisaille walls she once saw in a European dining room and by her client's love of the artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. She spotted the guest bed at a closet shop, of all places, in Florida. When not in use, the Houdini-like affair rises up to hide in a glamorous red-lacquer bookcase of her own design.
Even more magical than the pullout bed, though, is the arabesque staircase leading to the new penthouse space. Spiraling up from the living room, the marvel of steel, resin, and glass hints at what lies above. "The stairs themselves build a degree of anticipation, so I had to be sure the payoff at the top was as surprising as they are," Williams says. Mission accomplished. "I've shown new clients this space, and they don't believe I did it," she says with a laugh. "It tickles me to death."

The car insurance company says I am partially at fault for the car wreck. Should I still consult an attorney?
The short answer is yes, but it wasn't always this way in Tennessee. For many years Tennessee was a contributory negligence state. That meant that if an accident was even 1% your fault you could not recover any damages through the Tennessee legal system. Thankfully, in 1992 Tennessee adopted a modified comparative fault system in the landmark case of McIntyre v. Balentine. Rather than completely barring someone from recovery if they are partially at fault in car wreck in Tennessee, comparative fault allows a person to recover damages depending on their percentage of fault in the accident.
Under pure comparative fault a person can recover damages in a car accident even if they are mostly at fault. If Jack and Jill are in a car accident and Jack is 95% at fault, Jack could in theory sue Jill for damages. However, it is likely that Jill would also file a lawsuit against Jack and whatever award Jack was granted would be minimal compared to that which Jill would be granted since the accident was almost entirely Jack's fault. In the grand scheme it is really quite pointless for Jack to even file a lawsuit in this situation. For that reason Tennessee adopted the "modified" comparative fault system.
The modified comparative fault system allows a person to recover damages for an accident as long as their fault is less than that of the opposing party. So, if you are in an accident that is partially your fault you may still be able to recover damages for your medical bills, property damages, pain and suffering, etc. An injured person is not entitled to any recovery if the person was 50% or more at fault for causing the damages. Ultimately, a jury and not an insurance adjustor makes this finding.
You may be asking, "what if I'm not sure who was more at fault in my accident?" Car wrecks are determined on a factual case by case basis. Even if you think that an accident was 50% your fault, you may want to at least consult an experienced Tennessee injury attorney. In Tennessee, if a jury or judge finds that you are 49% at fault or less, you are still entitled to a fair recovery but your damages will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
It is important to understand the principal of fairness that is at the heart of comparative fault. The goal is to create a system that is much more reasonable than contributory negligence. Under comparative fault, a person is only entitled to the percentage of the damage that was not caused by their own negligence or irresponsibility. For example, if at trial it is determined that you were 20% at fault in your accident, then you are entitled to 80% of the damages you incurred as a result of the accident.

Second, this kind of media story is actually rarer than you might think. News "employees" (as the Times calls them) don't usually put their jobs on the line to talk about stories they feel are being spiked (or "postponed," as Bloomberg puts it), no matter how bitter the internal arguments. For one thing, whether a big investigative piece is "ready" is always, up to a point, a judgment call, and the line between maintaining editorial standards and obstructionism will always be hazy. There is rarely a "smoking gun" in such matters, so to speak, and it's a difficult argument to win outright, so most frustrated reporters don't go public on such matters, even through leaks.
Plus, generally there aren't that many people involved in an internal controversy like this, so sources are more vulnerable to exposure than they might be in your usual inside-the-newsroom stories, like, for instance, Politico's gossipy piece on Jill Abramson. The allegations there were so vague and catty that anyone could have been the source. That's not the case in the Bloomberg affair.
And yet whomever the sources were leaked the dispute anyway, in some detail and at considerable career risk—with little upside. That's unusual and, in my opinion, it tips the scales in their favor, even though they're nameless.
Indeed, the sources are unusually blunt in contradicting their bosses accounts. From theFT:
The person familiar with the discussions dismissed Bloomberg's comments that the story was not ready for publication, saying it had been approved and just needed a Chinese government response. "We had crossed the Rubicon," the person said. "The story was fully edited, fact checked and vetted by the lawyers."
This is pushback against the pushback.
Third, this is actually much more important for Bloomberg News as a news operation than the terminal mini-scandal was. In the latter case, the interests at risk were business interests, and Bloomberg LP moved in and stomped out the problem with a shock-and-awe campaign of scrutiny and disclosure. No one doubts that Bloomberg will protect its business interests.
Here, the allegation is that journalism interests were sacrificed. Now, Winkler is quoted in the Wong story as saying on the conference call that his concern was about the organization being thrown out of China and left unable to report the news. That's a legitimate journalistic concern—sort of—but news organizations and/or reporters are not infrequently thrown out of countries that object to one story or other. It happens. And it's a problematic reason to not run a true story. After all, who knows what will trigger ejection, and how do you base editorial decisions on that probability? Coincidentally, we see that Reuters's veteran Paul Mooney was just denied a visa by China. That, of course, speaks well of him and of Reuters.
Bloomberg won't comment on the accuracy of the conference call anecdote but says flatly that editorial considerations alone drove the decision. As Winkler told the FT: "The reporting as presented to me was not ready for publication. Laurie and other top editors agreed."
But here's the rub: Bloomberg is different from other news organizations, and its peculiar terminal-sales model gives it a far larger stake in China than a traditional news organization might have. If the Times gets thrown out of China, it would suffer journalistically, but not so much financially (though now it's trying to grow its readership base there). If, on the other hand, Bloomberg were to get thrown out of China, it would lose journalistically, yes, but also much more financially. Its $20,000-a-year terminals are sold to mostly financial firms, and Wall Street isn't the market it used to be (thank goodness). Here's a snapshot of the company's growth in the last few years:
2010: 300k subscribers, $6.9B revenue;
2011: 313K subscribers, $7.6B revenue;
2012: 315k subscribers, $7.9B revenue.
Not bad but nothing to write home about.
There is no evidence—at all—that financial considerations had anything to do with the editorial decisions on the stories in question. On the other hand, Bloomberg's unique business model gives it interests in the market that other news organizations simply do not have. The real parallel might be to Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, which has often been accused of sacrificing journalism interests to business interests in China. But the comparison would be decidedly unfair to Bloomberg, which, in so many ways, is the anti-News Corp.
Still, the story of Bloomberg News in the last decade or so is that of an upstart news organization—by dint of massive spending, talent recruitment, and sheer, maniacal effort—muscling its way into the forefront of the business-news business, even as it carries a terminal-sized chip on its shoulder.

2011 Toyota Sienna
bshiffrin Posts: 2I am trying to decide whether to buy a 2010 Sienna Limited model or wait for a 2011. My garage doors are a little narrow and the 2010 limited has power folding mirrors which make it more convenient to get in and out of the garage. On our old Sienna we have to stop the car, get out and manually fold the mirrors. This gets to be inconvenient in the rain or winter snow.
I can't find any indication that the 2011 limitedmodel has the power folding mirrors. My dealer is trying to find out, but I was hoping someone here might have seen the car close up and could report on this feature.

Simplest way to upgrade, legally upgrade, is called buying a "new" car. Absent that be sure the upgrade is done along "legal" lines and is of the projector type. -
ateixeira Posts: 72,587Thanks for clarifying which models get DI and which ones don't. Strange indeed.
I wrote: "..The engine has the same 266hp in today's van..."
You replied: Your point being....??
My point being it did not get DI, which is what the OP was asking.
Why is it that the F/awd Venza is available with the new I4 but not the HL or Sienna...?? The weight is about the same for all three.
Actually the 2011 Sienna does get the 2.7l 4 cylinder option.
EPA mpg improves by 1-2mpg. -
ateixeira Posts: 72,587Sure it is, with FWD at least.

That V6 is the same 3.5-liter Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) unit available today, with 266 horsepower. The engine is stout enough to give the Sienna a 3,500-pound tow capacity while returning mileage of 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. Also available in Sienna and LE will be the VVT-i 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine with 187 horses and a slight bump in mileage to 19/26. -
kdhspyder Posts: 7,160I assume that you mean 2011.
It depends entirely on supply and demand. There's no getting around that. At the initial launch when dealers have one vehicle to show I wouldn't expect to get a killer deal. Maybe in the Spring when supply can start flowing dealers will be willing to be flexible.
However if it's a huge hit and demand exceeds supply you might have to wait until summer or fall. That's what happened when the Gen 2 Sienna was launched. It was launched in March of 03 and supply didn't catch up with demand until the following December. -

They're not related. I think your original post probably belonged in a different thread. This thread is about the new redesigned 3rd generation 2011 Sienna that was just unveiled this month. Someone asked if this new model will have "dumb tires" on it, and that led to a discussion about run-flats.
You might get better results for your headlight question if you were to click "Add a discussion" under the "Search Toyota Sienna" field in the upper right of the screen. -

Not sure about that 0-60 estimate, seems way too conservative.
They really liked the handling, but noted the loss of legroom. -

Looks like you can get power folding mirrors in the '11 Sienna Limited model, BUT it also looks like if you get the Limited you must also take the lounge seating in the 2nd row. Those seats each weigh 75 pounds and, as seen from pictures posted, leave something behind on the track when they are removed (so no flat floor where 2nd row is). The other thing to consider between the '10 and '11 model years, and this one is baffling to be sure, is that the '11 Siennas have much less leg and cargo room. You lose over 2" legroom in front, another 2" in the middle, and 3" in the rear.
If you want a Limited but don't want lounge chairs in the 2nd row, and you do want more overall space (across all trim levels), then maybe the 2010 would be the better choice.
At first I was glad for waiting for the '11 Sienna unveiling. Now, after seeing the '11 specs, I'm not so sure. The selection of '10 Limiteds in our area is getting sparse. -

This article says lounge seating is standard on both the XLE (AWD version) and the Limited:
"The XLE offers substantially more standard content at its value-driven MSRP of $32,175, even when compared to the LE. The XLE builds on the LE, adding standard features such as second-row Lounge Seating (AWD only), 18-inch alloy wheels, power moonroof, heated driver and passenger seats with adjustable temperature control, textured leather-trimmed eight-way power driver's captains chair and four-way front passenger captain's chair, towing package, power swing-out rear quarter glass, power rear door, fog lights, wood-grain-style trim, tri-zone automatic climate control system with air filter and rear control panel, optitron meters, and an anti-theft system with engine immobilizer." -
ateixeira Posts: 72,587Why AWD only? Once again Toyota's packagin makes NO SENSE!
towing package
Used to be standard, on my 07 LE Pkg 3. Dropped for MY2008.
power swing-out rear quarter glass
Oh noes! More cost cutting. My LE has that. I think mine has the immobilizer, too.
So they definitely cut a few things out, but I'll trade those off for a backup cam and power rear hatch any day. -
wwest Posts: 10,706Most of the time FWD only, 50/50 with HARD/WOT acceleration and 80/20 even with acceleration while turning. It's unclear just what happens with inadvertent/unexpected wheelspin when in FWD only mode. The way it reads is that although it will instantly couple in the rear drive it also INSTANTLY dethrottles the engine and starts braking the front wheels.
Definite advantage for start-out, initial acceleration on a slippery surface but just as bad as the old system, TC "enforced" F/awd, for unexpected loss of traction. But I suppose that should be an expected reaction to FWD wheelspin/slip in order to provide the absolute maximum FWD safety factor.

About OnebyOne
About Our Rescue Group...
OnebyOne is a registered 501c3 not-for profit cat rescue made up of a group of animal loving, dedicated, tireless volunteers in Central/South NJ. We are NOT a shelter. Our focus is to rescue stray, abandoned, homeless cats and kittens. Once each cat is in our care they are vaccinated, neutered/spayed and given any and all medical attention they need. Each cat is fostered in a wonderful home, nurtured and loved, they run around and play and sleep in their foster room until we are able to find each one their forever home.Another focus of our group is TNR* (trap, neuter, return). In an effort to help reduce over crowding in state shelters and minimize the outdoor feral cat population in NJ, OnebyOne is not only providing hands on help, but also providing education and rescourecs to help people who want to get involved in their own backyard or their community.
All of the animals listed for adoption on our page have at one time been either strays or were rescued from the state shelters, some of them within hours of impending euthanasia.
The ultimate goal of OnebyOne goal to both prevent the birth of more homeless animals and to find families for all those who want them. Because of foster space limitations, we do place mostly cats, but you will find the occasional dog listing here, as we courtesy post for fellow trusted Rescuers in the NJ area.
Please note: WE DO NOT BREED KITTENS!!! If there are kittens listed for adoption at any time on this page, they were rescued.
OnebyOne is lucky enough to maintain a foster network throughout NJ . We work closely with our fosters, other rescues, and various shelters to place these rescued cats and dogs in loving forever homes.
OnebyOne does not receive any funding. The only way we can continue to rescue and help these precious animals is your donations. Food, litter, petsmart/costo gift cards, laundry detergent, paper towels are always needed.
Come Meet Our Pets...
All events will have cats and kittens for adoption, along with give-a-ways, raffles, paw print jewelry and watches for sale. We will also have cats toys, dog toys, bones and lots of other fun stuff! Come visit!!Pls contact us email@example.com for our next scheduled adoption event.
Pls check our FaceBook Page for updated Current Adoption Events:
Scheduled Weekends at Petsmart in Stafford, NJ
WeekDay Adoption events during the Summer at BuddysPetStop on LBI
Our Adoption Process...
Our process is simple if you are a loving home. We require an application with a vet reference, note that we will be calling your current vet to confirm all information. A volunteer from OnebyOne will also do a house check before allowing the cat to be adopted.Some individuals may deem this process excessive, however, pls note that our Founder has been rescuing animals for over 25 years and has seen too much too allow any cat/kitten we rescue to go to a home that we are unsure of. Our cats are our priority and we take that responsibility seriously.

Greg Smith has met with publishers this week, including imprints at several prominent houses. According to several people who were present, Mr. Smith described his book as a coming-of-age story, the tale of someone who came into the business with good intentions and sky-high ideals that were ultimately pierced by Goldman's obsessive focus on making money. It would also be a story of the history of Goldman Sachs and the perceived change in the culture of the firm that left Mr. Smith, a native of South Africa who lived in London, disillusioned and eager to leave after spending nearly 12 years there.
E-Mail to Corzine Said Transfer Was Not Customer Money (Dealbook)
But the e-mail, a copy of which was reviewed by The New York Times, did not capture the full story behind the wire, which turned out to contain customer money. MF Global employees in Chicago had first transferred $200 million from a customer account to the firm's house account, people briefed on the matter said. Once it was in the firm's coffers, the people said, Chicago employees then promptly transferred $175 million of the money to the MF Global account at JPMorgan in London — the account that was overdrawn…The e-mail suggests that Mr. Corzine, a former governor of New Jersey, was unaware that the money had been transferred from a customer account.
Germany Backs Boost To Bailout Fund (WSJ)
Germany has been staunchly opposed to raising the planned €500 billion ($664 billion) ceiling on the ESM, but has left the question of the EFSF open until now. It was widely believed that the EFSF would be retired as soon as the ESM is launched and that the EFSF loans already awarded would be assumed by the ESM, reducing its future lending capacity. But now Berlin is suggesting allowing the EFSF to run longer and by doing so ensure that the ESM can use its full lending capacity, effectively boosting the firewall to about €700 billion. "We are saying that the ESM should permanently have €500 billion," Ms. Merkel told a news conference in Berlin on Monday.
BATS Faced Revolt Over IPO (WSJ)
"The fact that our own stock was out there to be traded for the first time, and we showed systems problems, eroded customer confidence," Joe Ratterman, BATS's chief executive, said Sunday in an interview. "Of course investors are going to say, 'Hey, wait a second.'" Some traders and investors considered the offering pricey. At $16 a share, BATS would have traded at about 10 times analysts' 2013 earnings estimates. That is roughly on par with New York Stock Exchange owner NYSE Euronext and a premium to the Nasdaq OMX Group Inc., which trades at 8.6 times 2013 estimates. Even before the glitches appeared, the offering was off to a rocky start. When trading in BATS shares opened at 10:45 a.m., they were down 75 cents, to $15.25. From there, things only got worse.
JPMorgan Wins Case Against Trader Over Decimal Point Dispute (Bloomberg)
JPMorgan doesn't have to pay a trader 580,000 pounds ($921,000) after a missing decimal point in an employment contract led him to believe his salary would be 10 times what was offered, a London court ruled. Kai Herbert, a Switzerland-based currency trader, sued JPMorgan for lost earnings claiming he signed a contract to relocate to Johannesburg for a salary of 24 million rand ($3.1 million). JPMorgan said there was a typographical error and the figure should have been 2.4 million rand. "Herbert took the commercial risk of accepting the offer, knowing full well that the figure was an error," Judge Henry Globe said in today's judgment.
Rick Santorum Now Depending on His Bowling Prowess to Win Elections (Daily Intel)
Yesterday on CBS's Face the Nation, Rick Santorum made his latest appeal to voters in Wisconsin, who go to the polls a week from Tuesday. "I don't know if you saw but yesterday I was bowling in Sheboygan. I threw three strikes in a row, that's a turkey. You can tell that you have someone here who relates to the voter in Wisconsin — like so many in Pennsylvania I grew up in the bowling lanes."
Hedge Funds Capitulating Buy Most Stocks Since 2010 (Bloomberg)
A gauge of hedge-fund bullishness measuring the proportion of bets that shares will rise climbed to 48.6 last week from 42 at the end of November 2011, the biggest increase since April 2010, according to data compiled by the International Strategy & Investment Group. The Bloomberg aggregate hedge fund index gained 1.4 percent last month, lagging behind the Standard & Poor's 500 Index by 2.65 percentage points.
Banks Set to Cut $1 Trillion From Balance Sheets (FT)
Investment banks are to shrink their balance sheets by another $1 trillion or up to 7 percent globally within the next two years, says a report that foresees a shake-up of market share in the industry. Higher funding costs and increased regulatory pressure to bolster capital will force wholesale banks also to cut 15 percent, or up to $0.9 trillion, of assets that are weighted by risk, a joint report by Morgan Stanley and consultants Oliver Wyman predicts. In addition, banks are expected take out $10 billion to $12 billion in costs by reducing pay, firing employees and paring back investments in areas that are no longer considered core.
Larry Summers: Strong Recovery A "Substantial Possibility" (FT)
According to Summers, the biggest risk to the recovery in the next few years is that policy will move away too quickly from its emphasis on boosting demand. "A lurch back this year towards the kind of policies that are appropriate in normal times would be quite premature," he added.
Bernanke Notes Labor Market Concerns (WSJ)
"Further significant improvements in the unemployment rate will likely require a more-rapid expansion of production and demand from consumers and businesses, a process that can be supported by continued accommodative policies," Mr. Bernanke said in prepared remarks to the annual conference of the National Association for Business Economics.
Bad fliers get boot – & bill (NYP)
Fed up with disruptive fliers, the Port Authority plans to go after them for the money they cost their airline and the PA. "We're going to use every lever at our disposal," said PA chief Pat Foye. "These delays cost thousands of dollars — maybe tens of thousands — each. One Alec Baldwin incident can delay a whole airport for a day with cascading delays." (Baldwin, the "30 Rock" star, made international headlines in December when he got booted by American Airlines at LAX after refusing to turn off his phone.) The PA is going to "aggressively'' remind passengers to keep cool and listen to instructions from airline crews — even if they think they're stupid, Foye said.

At first I thought three strikes in a row was pretty awesome. Then I remembered that bowling is a joke.
*Rough draft*
Chapter 6–The DayWhen I walked in that day, something had changed. The coffee tasted different, there was the unmistakable scent of Axe deodorant mingled with the now familiar scent of the undeodorized European underarms on the desk. The combination of which smelled curiosly like money…freshly printed money. I remembered my first day: the untied shoes, the hope and promise of helping my fellow man. No, this was not the Goldman I remembered on my first day, it was different, very different.
Jon Corzine… transfer… blah, blah, blah….. Why isn't anyone jumping on JPM's case?
How did they suspect that the funds could have come from customer accounts? Why was the suspicion so strong that they were seeking a letter guaranteeing that JPM wasn't going to be complicit in this? Did they pretty much know they bled MF Global dry to a position that might have encouraged a customer transfer? And if having this letter implies that JPM would be protected from being compelled to return the funds, does not having the letter mean JPM should be compelled to return the funds to customers now?!"The letter from JPMorgan asked for confirmation that all "past, present and future" transfers complied with laws preventing the misuse of customer money, an indication that the bank, which also served as the place where MF Global customer money was kept, was concerned about the source of the transfer."
Bowling…..golf……hell, I'm healthy enough to play both! Let's go!
I will gladly pay whatever the Port Authority charges; I live to fly.

Welcome to the site, Mr. Corzine.
ELAINE: So, what's it about?
KRAMER: Well, it's a story about love, deception, greed, lust and…unbridled enthusiasm.
ELAINE: Unbridled enthusiasm?
KRAMER: Well, that's what led to Greg Smith's downfall.
ELAINE: Oh boy.
KRAMER: You see, Elaine, Greg was a simple country boy. You might say a cockeyed optimist, who got himself mixed up in the high stakes game of world diplomacy and international intrigue.
ELAINE: Oh my God.
Isn't that the town w the mayor who went on a 3-day bender and got beat up in a bar fight?
Thx for the confirmation that the missing L wasn't a typo.
Letters from JP Morgan are pretty meaningless.
Here's something for a Monday morning smile. Remember the "key man" clause?
"Executives at MF Global, including Mr. Corzine, may also face claims from investors who bought $325 million in senior notes the firm sold in August 2011. Ironically, the securities contain a "key man" provision that would increase the interest rate by 1 percent if Mr. Corzine were nominated to a White House cabinet position before July 2013, an unlikely prospect now. The notes have lost nearly half their value in just three months since their issuance, so buyers are going to be looking to recover a portion of their losses."

The answer is much of the, "seg." funds were in fact at J.P. and as the article says had just been moved from there to house accounts days previously.
If you wanted to fund a man account, you wired funds to Harris ( BMO ) or Chase for nearly all currencies except YEN.
you are omitting the, "if indicted" clause which obviates all else.
Justice can only be requited, when Corzine is indicted.

Irish style (steel cut) oats are a great food, but take a long time to cook, so they're difficult for a weekday breakfast. Using the slow cooker overnight solves that problem. Chinese 5-spice powder (a mixture of cinnamon, ginger, two types of anise and cloves) gives it a wonderfully exotic flavor. We make a large batch and freeze it in cellophane wrap lined muffin pans, then bag the individual pucks. Depending on the size of your muffin pans, one or two oatmeal pucks in the microwave for a few minutes makes a quick and tasty breakfast.

Hello everyone!
Just letting you know that I had my baby girl on 9th of June- 1 week early and her name is Isla Willow (pronounced Eye-la) She was 8lb exactly, 51cm and I had her naturally after 6 hours and a bit of gas! Im very proud of myself as I achieved my VBAC.
All week I was having prelabour symptoms but nothing eventuated, so when my waters broke, i was thinking that it could still be 24 hrs away, but nope little Isla wanted to come out and after an hour of pushing she was here.. We are all so well and she is very content, and feeding beautifully and I love being home with the kids and DH.
Here are some pics of her and her brother Owen.
Lotsa love Teagan
And sleeping with Owen.....
Enjoying her bath

She is adorable!!! Thanks for sharing pics. I had a vbac with my 2nd, isn't it an amazing feeling!
jojogirl~ for me vbac was a great experience. Labor went quickly and he was early so he was small. The only problem was it went so quickly (after being in slow labor for a couple days) that by the time I got my epidural I was pushing.
Thank you God and IG!

Behavioral health carve-outs limit access of women with breast cancer to psychotherapy and related medications
Research Activities, August 2009, No. 348
A tumult of emotions typically bombard women diagnosed with breast cancer, ranging from severe anxiety and depression to shock and disbelief. Although 22 to 40 percent of women with breast cancer suffer significant psychological distress, at most only 30 percent of them receive psychotherapy or medication. Women have less access to psychotherapy and psychotherapeutic medications if mental health services are provided by behavioral health carve-outs in their insurance program rather than as integrated services, concludes a new study.
Researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School analyzed insurance claims, enrollment data, and insurance benefit design data from 1998 to 2002 from the MarketScan Commercial Claims & Encounters Research Database on women 63 years of age and younger with newly diagnosed breast cancer. They compared medication and psychotherapy use among women whose behavioral health services were provided through carve-outs (which are administered and managed separately from other health services) versus integrated arrangements, during the year after a breast cancer diagnosis.
Women enrolled in carve-outs were 32 percent less likely to receive any psychotherapy visits compared with a matched group of women in integrated arrangements. Conditional on having received psychotherapy, however, women in carve-out arrangements used more psychotherapy visits than women in integrated arrangements. The use of antianxiety/hypnotic drugs was also significantly higher for women in carve-out arrangements versus women in integrated arrangements (36.1 vs. 32.6 percent). Providers who refer women with breast cancer for behavioral health services should realize that some women face more complicated paths into treatment than others.
The study was supported by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HS10803). An editorial accompanies the paper. More details are in "Behavioral health services for women who have breast cancer," by Vanessa Azzone, Ph.D., Richard G. Frank, Ph.D., Juliana R. Pakes, M.Ed., and others, in the February 10, 2009, Journal of Clinical Oncology 27(5), pp. 706-712.

So here's the question assuming I'm using some type of reflector either way, which is a better/more effecient means of mounting CFLs? Vertically or horizontally? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes, inquiring mines want to know. Me too. I sure like the looks of the home made reflector with two horizontal bulbs. Am going to make one. Before I saw his video, I bought a four bulb vanity bar from E-bay. So I can go either way. Kenny |
- Posted by hydroponica 5-6 (My Page) on Sat, Feb 7, 09 at 13:53
Sideways. Not as much light comes out the end of the bulb as from the sides, so aim the side at the plants and use reflectors to redirect what misses. |
And inquiring "minds" too! Unless you are trying to grow only a couple of plants, I would go with horizontal. But if it is one or two plants in a small hydro unit or similar, I would go vertical and buy one of those cheap cylindrical reflectors. Mike |
- Posted by hydroponica 5-6 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 12, 09 at 14:47
You can also hang them around the plant(s) vertically so you're lighting them from the sides. |

X = max number of times the name can appear. So someone could have, thinking their name was the sh!t, gone to as many servers as possible, namecamping the name.
Which is why you see something some obscure ones such as "Actæon" amongst the unorignal/punny ones.

Cross-realm Dungeon Finder premium service coming soon {WoW}
May 18th 2011 2:16AM To those trying to reason away the extra cost of this new feature blizzard is developing, can I ask you this.
Would it of been acceptable to charge for the LFD finder? That was extra functionality to the game that was probably much more of a challenge to develop, and provided everyone with a quality of life improvement to the game. If friend groups are worth charging for, than LFD is worth just as much if not twice. This is being developed using the money made from our subs, this is the kind of advancements they NEED to make in order to make appealing to people, and yet some moneyman had the bright idea that they could fleece their already-paying customers for more
This is a serious quality of life improvement, if they are really going to spend the time and money into adding it to the game, then they should just put it in there and not have it sectioned off by some god damn velvet rope.
I don't use RID because I just objected to it from the start, as such I'm happy to not use it as a choice, but I still don't see it as fair that people who do want to use this kind of persistent in-game functionality have to pay extra for something they already funded through their monthly fee.

Jan 11th 2011 7:01AM "Player skill should mean something"
Well on some servers the minority faction has an advantage where their skilled players have a higher chance of getting in to fight than those on the larger faction. For the same reason pug BGs and random skirmishes aren't rated, the skill of random groups mean very little.
Patch 4.0.6: Bloodlust's arena nerf {WoW}

Tol Barad hotfixed to reward 360 honor on offensive win {WoW}
Jan 3rd 2011 6:35PM Take this into consideration:
Lets say the minority faction have 50 people in the BG, everyone who queued gets in. This party includes the top 1% pvp gods and the bottom group of keyboard turners. The majority faction have 200 people who want to get in, including the few top players and a large mass of keyboard turners... I've seen true greats relegated to bridge duty while I've fought along side people who don't grasp the true value of CC.. or at least the value of not directly attacking that epic war in the ice block. It' just feels like the majority faction gets more of the bad players in than the few top players can bear to carry, while the minority faction gets everyone in all the time and everyone stands to get more field experience as a result.

Jan 3rd 2011 6:28PM Side note, I still did wintergrasp during the orignal TB era because a win would net about as much as a TB loss did, the weekly quests made it even more worthwhile... I still do wintergrasp now because.. well, you can still get some really good scraps out of it while being less fustrating to attack than TB, even with gimped seige that can get 3-shotted at 85.

WHILE still at school, I married my teacher who died two years later and left me with two children. I got another man with whom I have four children.
My first daughter from my first marriage is now 19 and is sleeping with my husband. I have proof.
THIS is now a big issue among male parents with their step-daughters.
Although this girl is actually not related to your husband by blood, but out of courtesy and respect, he should regard her as his own. It is a pity that even the girl does not look at him as 'daddy'.
This is where you need to go back and see if there was anything you missed out during parenting, lest the same thing happens to your other children. The easier person to bring back to her senses might be the girl.
Have you talked to her or you are still in shock and lost? If you live around Kampala, please come to me for help.
I want to warn you to take serious care of his other daughters, since he has proved himself to be irresponsible. It is now your time to put your shock and pain aside, and do the thinking for these people who are both very close to you, before the girl bears your husband's child.
Talk to them candidly and let them know that you are aware of what they are doing. Plan your talk carefully and calmly.
You should have a strong support group, preferably your family and /or friends that you might have to fall back to in case things do not work out the way you want.
Have an ultimatum before you talk to them and fulfill it when things do not go the way you want.
Talk candidly to both of them separately and then together and hear if there is one who is willing to stop.
Encourage your daughter to leave your home, even if you strongly believe that it will be much easier for them to continue.
Surely, it is less heartbreaking to sleep somewhere else and not in your house and maybe your bed.
Involve family members who like, respect and wish to protect their family.
If all the above fails, you might have to consider leaving them both to continue with their a_ air since you are the only one who is bothered by this relationship.
How to help children identify a sex abuser
Explain to them from a tender age that their private parts are private and no one should touch them.
Always talk to them about sex. Explain what it is, what it was created for, who should do it and when it should be done.
Make sure they are bathed by people of the same sex.
Keep an eye on how close the father is to the children and do not ignore anything suspicious you might see.
Tell the children to trust nobody with their bodies, even their dad, they are private and should be kept so.
Answer their questions about sex candidly and quickly before someone else does it for you.
Be friends with them and talk about everything about their lives.
Always take the initiative.http://www.newvision.co.ug/news/630230-Help--my-husband-is-sleeping-with-my-daughter.html

I am using the default Revit break lines in a few of my plans, and they work great. But when I insert them into an RCP, the masking regoin does not mask anything. Tried send to front/back, copying, inserting new. My other masking regions will still work as they are supposed to, but this break line does not.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Solved! by rosskirby. See the answer in context.
Make sure that view isn't set to wireframe.
A quick work-around is to create a masking region and break line seperately that mimic the actual thing. But I am still looking for an explanation as to why it won't work if anyone has any ideas.
I cannot re-create the issue. Look at Level 1 RCP in the attached file. If you are still seeing the same issue please produce a similar sample file and attach.
Thanks for posting.
Make sure that view isn't set to wireframe.
Simple solutions are the best kind. Glad I could help.
If you find yourself working in wireframe a lot, it might be useful to set up two separate views, one that goes on the sheet, and one that you work in (i.e annotation views and working views, respectively). That way you don't have to worry about something looking wonky when you go to issue drawings. We have all of our views set up that way (except drafting views, legends, etc., of course), along with a separate presentation set of views. Each has their own view template to control what is/isn't visible, v/g overrides, filters, etc. A little more complicated to set up and get used to, but ultimately more productive and efficient in the long run.
Good luck to you.

TORONTO - The author of proposed legislation which would have required drivers to pay before filling up the tank says thousands of gas-and-dash thefts occur each year in Ontario.
Liberal MPP Mike Colle began compiling statistics on the crime after the death of two gas station attendants in the Toronto-area over the past two years.
"It is not a victimless crime ... the victims are the gas station attendant who risk their lives almost on a regular basis," Colle said. "We are at the point where one of the most dangerous jobs you can have in
Ontario is working at a gas station and in most cases people work for ten bucks an hour."
According to figures released Friday by Colle, there were at least 9,200 gas thefts in Ontario between 2009-10.
Not all police forces kept relevant statistics and it's believed that about half of all gas-and-dash episodes go unreported.
Last year, there were 1,581 thefts in Toronto, 766 in York Region, 601 in Ottawa and 286 each in Niagara and London.
York Regional Police Staff Sgt. Ed Villamere said the service is mailing out crime prevention tips to gas station attendants, but a pre-payment system would put a stop to the problem.
"It's a completely preventable crime," Villamere said. "We have in York region (in 2012) 916 incidents of drive-off gas thefts ... which is way too many."
Colle's private member's bill -- Jayesh's Law -- is named after Toronto gas station attendant Jayesh Prajapati, 44, who was dragged to his death in September while attempting to prevent the driver of an SUV from fleeing without paying.
The bill required gas station owners to install a pre-payment system, punished owners who docked staff pay for thefts and stripped the driver's licence from anyone convicted of a gas and dash.
Colle's bill never made it into law.
Colle said gas station owners should also improve the quality of their lighting and video surveillance, and oil companies should refuse to give gas to any station which is found to have punished its workers for thefts by cutting their pay or making them work for free.
The MPP wants the province to advise Crown attorneys to treat the crime seriously.
PC Leader Tim Hudak said he believes that individual businesses should be able to decide if they want a pre-payment system.
"Obviously, I'd make sure we have the law enforcement to punish those who break the law," Hudak said.

"Made this recipe the night before serving, stored in fridge until baking. The only change I made was to substitute a whole, seeded chipotle chili for the fresh jalapeno. Everything else teh same. It was fantastic! Truly. I served this tonight to a group of ECPTA women, who have artichoke dip at EVERY meeting and gathering, and they RAVED over..."
"Please don't use bacon bits in this recipe. The small amount of bacon this recipe uses gives the brussel sprouts a nice, smoky flavor. Bacon bits tend to add an odd chemical flavor that accentuates the natural bitterness in brussel sprouts."
"This was excellent, LLBunny! And easy, easy, easy! And versatile! I used a mix of fresh herbs - basil, flat-leaf parsley, marjoram an a bit of rosemary. Everyone loved it as a dip on bruschetta. Then a few days later, I took some of the leftover and stuffed some crepes triangles with it and a dab of feta as an appetizer. Excellent! Then a f..."
"Wonderful! We had these on a picnic last week, and we loved them. I used some leftover filet that I sliced very thin instead of the roast beef, and used french bread as suggested, with provolone. Loved the mayonnaise spread. We used it on other sandwiches after the roast beef was gone. Thank you Leannr! I always enjoy your recipes."
"Five stars doesn't begin to do it justice. This is one of the best combinations of flavors and textures I've had in a very long time, but it may be because I love all of the ingredients on this sandwich. First of all - I followed the recipe to the letter. I had a few qualms about the pepperoni - pepperoni? I thought it had to be a misprint. B..."
"This bread ROCKS! I was a little nervous when I saw how sticky the dough was - nearly a batter! But I just let it rise - beautifully, I might add! - and then formed a loaf, let it rise, slashed the top, and baked. It took about 40 minutes to bake fully. It is awesome, Mean. I absolutely love it and it was easy and I WILL make this again. Per..."
"Wonderful, S'kat! I didn't change anything, but I did use salt-cured capers, which I soaked then drained. The other addition I made (just a personal preference) was 2 tbl. heavy cream at the end to the sauce. Otherwise all the same. Very simple and quick to prepare, and very tasty! No leftovers at all. I served it with rice pilaf and some gl..."
"If I could give this more stars I would. Followed the recipe to the letter, and I would recommend to anyone else making this that they not change a thing. This was fabulous! And EASY. I mean - brown the shanks, brown the veg, put the shanks back in, add the rest of the ingredients, cover and let go in the oven for 2 hours. Absolutely wonderfu..."
"S'kat I know you haven't tried this one yet, so I feel a little bad about this review, but I know if you tried it you you would probably agree with me.

"These are really terrific! I made them exactly the way the recipe stated, froze them and everything, served with mango salsa - oh! Wonderful!
