Everything i read says to put the light a couple inches above the seedlings (for tomatoes). But if I do this it will block a good deal of the sunlight coming in through the windows. 12 to 18 inches won't block the light. What should I do? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Try putting the lights BEHIND the plants. You'll have to mount them horizontally, but this way the plants will get the extra light without being shaded from the sun. |
i would choose the artificial light over the sun light. you keep it just above the tomatoes. if you let them grow mainly with the window light they will grow towards the window and thus cause leggy plants. the object of putting the grow lights so close to the plant is to keep it from getting leggy. which is the whole point of using grow lights anyway right? |

I have seen a post here about the amount of energy that is rec'd depending on how close the light is. And, as far as a laymen can tell, inches count, as in the prescribed few. Again, I save seen posts in here that the suns power far out-weighs that of lights. Go fish. |

Direct sunlight is many times stronger than your lights, so don't block it. Don't be too worried about blocking indirect natural light, especially indoors, because the fluorescents will be more intense if you can get them very close. Ideally, use an arrangement like jkirk describes. Or look for a good reflector system so you can mount the lights further away. |

We have never used the DDP so not sure if this is a big increase or not.
Meh...I never use it, but I guess it always seemed like a good thing...but lowering the snack limit to 1 isn't so bad...when I was down back in November for my cousin's wedding, in one of the gift shops on the Grand Canyon Concourse in the Contemporary (where I was staying; forget which shop), a couple was getting a lot of snacks, like 8 mickey-shaped rice krispie treats, and fudge and other stuff to take home because they had so many snacks left over...just a thought
I think the biggest advantage to it is simply the fact of just not having to use cash all that much, if not at all
grrrr the ddp is amazing , we calcuated it on our last trip and it was around $960 for a family of four for 6 days. We used to keep our snacks and bank them for the long ride home. We would leave with like $200 worth of snacks
I like the addition of the refillable resort mug; it's nice to see them finally add something to the plan, rather than the usual deduction and/or price increase.
I remember when I first started using the DDP back in 2006, the cost was $38/person and that included an appetizer and gratuity on the table service option!
I'm with N.J.boy @ N.C.St. We've never seen the benefit of the dining plan, even when free dining has been available. I'm normally one of a party of two adults, and AP or general public discounts at the Deluxes always beat the dining plan by a country mile. I also dislike booking a package, since I don't like the payment terms and I have to pay full fare for my tickets.

Twelve seasons in and there is still something so comforting about Tim's consultations. No matter how brutally honest his critique is, he always has the best interest in mind for his little designer ducklings. He suggests that Dom focus entirely on perfecting every detail of her dress, rather than rushing to add a jacket to her look. Miranda's black and white jacket looks a little too matronly with the addition of the pale pink necktie, and Tim suggests adding some sex appeal or pizzazz instead.
Our style mentor Tim is a pro at giving the utterly confused expression rather than an outright look of concern, which is entirely the case with Sue and her double mannequin situation. Instead of one poorly sewn garment, Sue has managed to rough her way through two unfinished pieces. No, they are not complementary pieces in any shirt-and-blouse, suit-and-tie sort of way; She has actually started crafting two entirely separate looks. A black dress with a bow tie "exoskeleton" and length tail of ties, and a Little Red Riding Hood something or other manifesting beside it. The Mood receipt is making much more sense now. Leave it to Sue to put a $400 price tag on indecisiveness.
Sandro picks Top Gunn's (his new nickname choice, approved by Tim himself) brain regarding the light pink dress with bow tie-suspender-eque pieces attached to the bodice. He fears adding a jeweled clutch from the BELK accessories wall (See? I can product place too, guys) will be too much. Tim says that it's entirely Sandro's choice, and he is there to support him. Sandro's just in broken record mode, repeatedly exclaiming, "It's too much!" He worries more about getting into a negative confrontation with Zac Posen than remaining true to his aesthetic. But between the lady part-revealing leotard and the Russian vixen diamond ensemble, I'm not entirely sure what his aesthetic is yet. In the wise words of Tim, "You be Sandro, I'll be Top Gunn."
Helen doesn't feel so confident after Tim's critique, now fearing that her menswear-inspired design isn't feminine enough to change her approach now. "You want me to walk away because you're going to burst into tears!" Tim says. And he's right, because ol' waterworks politely excuses herself from the workroom to give herself a moment. Better now than the runway, Hel!
Perfectly juxtaposed with Helen's nervous Nellie moment is Kate's consultation regarding the equestrian-style shirt and pants ensemble she's constructing. After Tim suggests avoiding the use of leather in a way that cuts off the leg, Kate mentally edits her plan and decides to create a tie-shaped leather piece as an accent down the side of the pant. Kudos to the Runway veteran.
Once some type of garment is thrown on a model, it instantly appears to have at least a smidgen of potential. Sandro watches his model walk, and the Cinderella pink gown doesn't look entirely hopeless, except for the giant problem of the random bow tie suspenders slapped on the front. Helen doesn't know "what the f--- she's doing," Miranda can't seem to add sexiness to her design, and Dom fears that the pieces she is adding resemble vaginas. Bradon, a tad behind time-wise, has hopes of finishing a jacket to add to his skin-bearing top before the runway tomorrow.
Everyone take a quick moment and remember Ken and Karen also exist somewhere in this competition before we head to the runway.

Jerome is the best man for negotations he will be fair and do whatever he can for the public service. The economy is in hard shape these days and the price of oil is far behind where we predicted it would be. Jerome will do whatever he can to be as fair as he can. I would reccomend a 1 or 2 year deal and see how the economy has bounced then. REMEMBERa good portion of the reason we are in this situation is because of the years of overspending and abuse the liberals did in the past. This is a responsible government who will do the best for the people in province. I feel safe with this government!!

I had a real belly laugh when I read that Jerome Kennedy will now be the man to lead on public sector labour ' negations ', instead of ' negotiations '. Negation is the lack of something positive and, in this case, never has a typo been more appropriate. Kennedy likely considers the public sector unions to be comprised of a bunch of fools with grade six and they'll be treated accordingly.

- Further reading
The brain and spinal cord together form the central nervous system (CNS) which is responsible for processing all the information coming from our senses, keeping our organs and reflexes functioning, and directing our movements, thoughts and feelings.
The spinal cord is the critical organ that connects the brain to the rest of the body by conveying electrical impulses along the long nerve fibres that are bundled within it.
The nerves that branch out from the spinal cord to the rest of the body comprise the peripheral nervous system (PNS). These peripheral nerves both receive and convey messages creating a feedback loop that allows us to feel sensation and enable movement.
A nerve cell, or neuron, has a long slender projection, called the axon that acts like a transmission line coming from the control centre of the cell. Even though axons are microscopic in diameter, they may be many feet long. Wrapped around the nerve fibres is a fatty substance called myelin that is similar to insulation on a telephone wire. Myelin is a critical component of the nervous system in that it speeds up the electrical signals and protects the nerves. In addition to neurons, the brain is also home to glial cells which play a critical role in stabilizing the environment, making myelin and supporting and protecting the neurons.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) may occur anywhere from the neck to the lower back. During an initial trauma in which the spinal vertebrae fracture or dislocate, the delicate spinal cord is violently struck. While the cord itself typically remains in one piece, many of the tiny nerve fiber bundles within it are severed. After this initial mechanical injury, inflammation, swelling, and other metabolic processes are triggered, causing further damage and disruption of the nerve fibers. The severity of paralysis experienced by the patient is dependent upon the degree of damage done to the spinal cord. However, even in cases of 'complete paralysis' where the patient has no feeling or movement below the injury, the spinal cord itself is not severed completely, and in fact, there are some axons that remain intact across the injury site. Some of these are thought to have lost their myelin sheaths (their insulation) and therefore do not conduct electrical signals well.
Causes and Treatment
Spinal cord injury affects mostly young adults, about 80% of whom are males. Car accidents are responsible for about 50% of cases. Sporting accidents, serious falls, wounds, and diseases of the spine, such as spina bifida, can also cause permanent injury to the spinal cord. In North America, it is estimated that more than a million individuals live with a disability resulting from some type of spinal cord injury.
Because spinal cord injuries are often the result of terrible accidents which paralyze otherwise fit and mostly healthy young people, they can cause significant and prolonged suffering. Depending on the severity of the injury, rehabilitation may help many people to regain some degree of function.
Unlike the skin, blood, muscle and other organs, for many reasons the CNS does not routinely regenerate after damage – hence, the disability caused by spinal cord injury may be permanent and profound. In contrast, the nerves in the PNS tend to regenerate after injury, both because they are intrinsically better programmed to regenerate, and because the cells that myelinate axons in the PNS (called Schwann cells) tend to encourage regeneration.
After spinal cord injuries occur, there is only a small window of opportunity – hours, maybe weeks – in which therapies may reduce the disability. Restoring the electrical transmission between the brain and spinal cord requires repairing the myelin sheath around the damaged neurons and, in severe cases, the regrowth of severed nerve fibres across the site of injury and into the neural network below the lesion. Scarring and other cellular damage that occurs when the body responds to injury often compounds the difficulties in bridging the lesion site in the aftermath of the injury, and in many cases rehabilitation is the only recourse.
Can Stem Cells Help?
Stem cells have incredible regenerative capacity. The rationale for developing stem cell therapies to treat spinal cord injury is to use stem cells as a source of new cells and products that will help prevent further cellular damage, restore axon function by replacing oligodendrocytes, generate new nerve cells, or guide the regrowth of severed nerve fibres.
A number of different types of stem cells (embryonic stem cells, umbilical cord stem cells, adult neural stem cells, mesenchymal/bone marrow stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells) are currently being studied as potential sources of neurons, glial cells or neurotrophic factors to treat neurological disorders and traumas. Of particular interest are transplantation strategies aimed at using these cells to create oligodendrocytes, which are the glial cells that normally add myelin to nerve fibres in the brain and spinal cord.
Despite the tremendous promise of using stem cells for treating spinal cord injury, there are also limitations of an ethical and practical nature. For example, the source (embryonic versus adult), the risk of tumour formation, cell availability, the need for immunusuppression, and the potential to differentiate into the wrong tissues are all important considerations. Ongoing research is attempting to address these and other challenges while taking stock of the wishes of patients living with the devastation of spinal cord injuries.
Research Directions
Until 15 years ago, it was believed that the brain could not repair itself by generating new neurons. However, we now know that patients who have partial lesions to the spinal cord do experience a degree of spontaneous functional recovery arising from the ability of the brain to reorganize itself to produce new connections. This observation prompted scientists to wonder about the role of stem cells in the recovery process. The exciting discovery of neural stem cells (NSCs) in 1992 added to the stem cell arsenal and provided hope that such cells might someday be used to regenerate cells lost through CNS injury and disease. Numerous transplantation studies in animals have since provided the "proof of principle" that stem cells could potentially improve function after spinal cord injury.
In recent years, neural stem cells, derived from adults or embryos, and embryonic stem cells have shown great promise as potential sources of neural cells for regenerative therapies. Now scientists can grow these stem cells into neurons and glial cells, either in the laboratory before transplanting them, or directly implanting progenitor cells (partially-differentiated stem cells). For the laboratory approach, scientists first optimize cell culture conditions and experiment with the neurotrophic factors that stimulate stem cells to grow into the desired cell types prior to transplantation. For the direct transplantation approach, signals from the brain are expected to stimulate the progenitor cells to differentiate into the right kind of cells. These two strategies are generally known as exogenous repair (transplanting the required cell that is developed in the laboratory, or in vitro) and endogenous repair (relying on internal cues to differentiate neural stem cells in an animal, or in vivo). In the case of spinal cord injury, both approaches have merit and are being actively pursued by research teams around the world.
Looking to the future
Scientists continue to experiment in animal models of spinal cord injury by developing culture systems and drugs that can direct stem cell differentiation. The goal is to be able to transplant cells or their products that will ultimately replace or repair the damaged spinal cord tissue. As new discoveries are made, scientists are able to choose the most advantageous stem cells for transplantation studies.
Human embryonic stem cells are currently being tested as a source of oligodendrocytes or neural progenitor cells that repair spinal cord injury in animals. Oligodendrocytes made from human embryonic stem cells have successfully restored neural function in animal models of spinal cord injury, but it is often tricky to differentiate oligodendrocytes in the laboratory without also differentiating other unwanted cells types or forming tumours. In an effort to streamline the differentiation protocols so that only the desired cell types are being made for transplantation, researchers have found that if they first coax human embryonic stem cells to become neural progenitors and transplant only the progenitors that the chances of tumour formation are decreased. They have also showed that transplanting the neural progenitors on a biodegradable scaffold is advantageous because the scaffold provides a surface for the neural progenitors to cling to and helps with the release of beneficial growth factors.
Much work is also being focussed on recruiting the body's own neural stem cells or transplanting adult neural stem cells. These cells have the capacity to make a range of cells types, including oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and neurons. Studies in rats have shown that first differentiating neural stem cells into either oligodendrocyte or astrocyte precursors and transplanting these cells can lead to the remyelination of damaged axons and decrease motor neuron loss.
Researchers in Colorado and New York are particularly interested in astrocytes as a therapy for spinal cord injury. Astrocytes are extremely important in generating nerve fibre growth in early development of the nervous system, but they complicate spinal cord injury by creating scar tissue that prevents transmission of nerve impulses. Building on their discovery in 2008 identifying two distinct sub-types of astrocytes, the scientists have now shown that by manipulating different growth factors they can differentiate two different kinds of astrocytes from the same human fetal glial precursor stem cell population, and that only one population can promote behavioural recovery and protection in spinal cord injury in rats. This finding lends weight to the idea that differentiating a specific astrocyte pool is more successful than transplanting precursor cells, and this approach is being optimized in preparation for clinical trials.
Another approach that is being investigated involves exploiting the characteristics of olfactory ensheathing cell, a unique stem cell-like population of glial cells found in the nasal cavity. These cells secrete many different neurotrophic factors, have properties similar to Schwann cells and astrocytes, and are able to continually stimulate the regrowth of peripheral and central nervous system axons. Transplanting olfactory ensheathing cells in animals with spinal cord injury has shown promise and the addition of bioscaffolds to the mix is helping to direct axon cell growth and remodelling.
One of the most exciting landmarks in recent years occurred in 2006 with the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells. iPS cells are made by reprogramming adult fibroblasts into embryonic-like stem cells that are capable of making different types of neurons, oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. Because induced pluripotent stem cells are patient-specific, they are being considered revolutionary in that they could provide a source of cells directly matching the genetic profile of a recipient. iPS cells also have advantages over other stem cells in that they are a more accessible source of cells and lack the inherent ethical consideration of embryonic stem cells. However, the same pitfalls that apply to iPS cells as to other stem cells, namely tumour formation. Although scientists have much work to do before they can use iPS cells in transplantation studies in humans, the work done towards optimizing cell culture conditions and reprogramming techniques are rekindling the possibility of transplanting patient-specific cells that will circumvent the problems of graft rejection and the need for risky immunosuppressant drugs.
Canadian Stem Cell Studies
A milestone in spinal cord injury research using adult stem cells was achieved in 2007 with the work of Dr Freda Miller and her colleagues in Toronto and British Columbia. Dr Miller discovered that stem cells derived from the patient's own skin (skin-derived dermal precursors – SKPs) share characteristics with embryonic neural stem cells and can produce Schwann cells -- cells that create a good growth environment to repair injured nerve fibres including the ability to make myelin, which is crucial for impulse conduction.
In pre-clinical experiments, Dr. Miller in collaboration with Dr. Wolfram Tetzlaff at UBC was able to prove that Schwann cells created from SKPs produced myelin along the damaged spinal cord of rats. They then tested whether this approach would result in functional improvement by directly transplanting Schwann cells created from skin into rats with spinal cord injury. Mobility and coordination improved after 12 weeks and there was evidence that new nerves were growing in the cavity of the spinal cord. The Schwann cells had created a sort of bridge that spanned the cavity allowing nerves to grow through the bridge. In addition, many spared nerve fibres near the lesion site that had lost their myelin were remyelinated by the Schwann cells.
Looking to the Future with Clinical Trials
There are few clinical trials at present examining the usefulness of stem cells to treat spinal cord injuries. Although the trials underway at a very early stage, they should yield much needed information about the safety and feasibility of transplanting stem cells into the injured spinal cord. Further clinical trials will be required to answer whether these early trials have actually helped to improve function, and those answers are still many years away.
In 2010, the Wroclaw Medical University in Poland began a phase I trial assessing the feasibility of transplanting olfactory ensheathing precursor cells into patients with complete spinal cord injury. The primary goal of the study is to assess the safety of the transplant in 10 patients. The long-term view is to test if the transplanted olfactory ensheathing precursor cells will be able to provide growth factors to support and enhance the survival of neurons. The trial also includes intense neurorehabilitation as an integral part of the therapy.
A recent trial sponsored by the California-based biotechnology company Stem Cells Inc. at Balgrist University Hospital In Switzerland began March 2011. Stem Cells Inc. has developed a technique for harvesting human central nervous system stem cells, known as HuCNS-SC, from brain tissue. The phase I/II trial aims to test the safety of transplanting HuCNS-SCs into the spine of 12 patients with chronic spinal cord injury. The study is due to be completed in 2016.
Another trial that began in 2011 is a phase I trial sponsored by the Memorial Hermann Healthcare System. The study participants are children under 15 years of age with spinal cord injury and as the primary goal the study plans to test the safety of transplanting a patient's own bone marrow progenitor cells. As a secondary goal the study will assess whether outcome measures relating to function, physiology and anatomy are improved. The trial is expected to end in 2014.

This first forum will focus on the impacts on ratepayers of Duke Energy's monopoly status in North Carolina. Recent polling shows that North Carolina voters across the political spectrum overwhelmingly dislike being held captive in a monopoly electricity market that guarantees Duke a large profit for building power plants and raising rates.
The forum will explore why Duke is allowed to fence-off North Carolina from changes underway across the U.S. power industry, which is moving away from construction of giant power plants and toward smaller-scale, on-site generation by businesses and homeowners using natural gas, solar and other technologies.

Micro Machines V4 Review
The miniature car racing classic crashes and burns as it tries to make a comeback with V4.
The original Micro Machines was released over a decade ago. The concept of racing miniature vehicles on a track made of everyday objects was still nouveau and many lauded that game for its simplistic yet enjoyable gameplay. Sadly, Micro Machines V4 does not build well upon its predecessors.
My sorrows began when I first installed the game; I cringed as the installation menu notified me that it used some sort of copyright-protection that required a restart of my PC. I hoped that it would be a little less rough from that point onwards. I was wrong. The cheesy, choppy intro movies could not be skipped and the menu had "console port" written all over it. There is no mouse support to speak of and the game even supports multiple-input gaming like one would play on a console in their living room.
The visuals were not horrible- they were just bland and uninspired. The cars in particular have so little detail that I had trouble differentiating between all the different models (of which there are plentiful). Some of the tracks make good use of obstacles but more often than not, the bumbling camera will make you miss a turn or run right into a blow-dryer or a billiard ball. The default camera setting makes for some nauseating action but is much more preferable to the basically useless alternative, fixed view. Driving can be fun on certain tracks where the camera is more forgiving. The sharp turns on other tracks can lead to some very frustrating restarts.
The audio is, similarly, not quite horrible but it sure tries to be. Apart from a few explosions, most of the sound effects are boring. The tiny engine sounds are especially unwelcome to my ears. To emphasize how forgettable the audio was: I do not even recall if there was any music during MMV4′s races.
There is an included track editor which lets you choose from a number of set tracks where you can edit waypoints. Actually, it is more of a track customizer rather than a full track editor. The number of real options therefore are rather limited in scope. There is also an online component to the game where one can allegedly race against or trade vehicles with other players. I say allegedly because I could not actually find anyone online to play with. Maybe they got lost on account of the bad camera angles. To add salt to the wound, MMV4 crashed-to-desktop when I tried to quit.
Overall, MMV4 is not worth the money in its present incarnation. It is a budget-quality game that is currently being sold at full price. Fans of the series may be better off buying the actual toys and creating their own tracks with ordinary household items instead of putting up with a bad port of a bad console game.

You know you've got some serious street cred when The New York Times gives you a shout-out. So who and what is the buzz about?
Ben Gorham, a former basketball pro and now the brains behind Stockholm-based fragrance house Byredo. At Barneys, Ben has made a name for himself in beauty, but now he's found a place in fashion as well.
In fall 2011, Byredo had us nosing around trying to get a whiff of his captivating Seven Veils scent—a spicy concoction of vanilla flower and Indian sandalwood. Now that same limited-edition scent has inspired a new collaboration with M/M Paris: a collection of seven silk scarves meant to be sprayed with the perfume. "We loved the idea of wearing a perfume as a veil or vice versa, so we created a scarf," Ben says. "We wanted to give people a chance to wear the fragrance in a different way."
Read on for more delicious deets on this collaboration, courtesy of Ben himself.
* * *
You went from being a pro-basketball player to a perfumer. How did you go from one to the other?
Completely by chance. I had just graduated from art school in Stockholm and met a perfumer for the first time. I became fascinated by the creative possibilities that he described and I decided to start Byredo.
Where do you get the inspiration for your fragrances?
What role does scent play in your life?
For me, it has become another way to express ideas and emotions. It has such strong evocative powers and is especially tied to memory.
Tell us about the prints.
M/M (Paris) created the artwork of snakes to illustrate the seductive nature that inspired the perfume.
Where does the name Seven Veils come from?
It is based on the biblical tale of Salome's dance of the Seven Veils, a story of many layers. Tainted and bejeweled, Salome turns to the art of seduction. Barefooted, sanguine and black eyed, she demands a man's head on a plate in exchange for one single dance.
What is the relationship between fragrance and fashion to you?
I think they both allow you to express either who you are or—more importantly—who you want to be. Fashion and fragrance have great aspirational functions.
Do you have a favorite fragrance of yours?
It's almost impossible to pick a favorite since they all represent a very different part of me. I'm always the most excited about works in progress; the challenge is a large part of why I do it.

Braised Persian-Style Lamb Shanks with Quince
Lobel Brothers | Yield: 4
The cinnamon, cardamom and turmeric in this rich lamb braise will perfume your kitchen and warm your belly.
- 3 to 3 1/2 pounds Lamb Shanks
- Salt
- 3 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
- 2 medium onions, ends removed, halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
- 1/4 teaspoon coarsely-ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 3 cups water
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 medium quinces, peeled, cored and cut into wedges about 1/2-inch-thick at the widest point
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 generous pinches saffron threads, crumbled and dissolved in 2 tablespoons warm water
- 1/3 cup yellow split peas, rinsed
- Lime wedges (optional)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Sprinkle the lamb on all sides with a scant tablespoon of kosher salt. Heat the oil in a wide, heavy 10- to 14-quart ovenproof pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add the lamb (in batches if necessary) and cook until golden brown on two sides, 5 to 6 minutes per side, reducing the heat if they threaten to burn. Transfer to a plate and reserve.
- Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until pale gold at the edges, for 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the black pepper, cinnamon, cardamom, turmeric, 1 teaspoon salt, and the water, scraping to loosen any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot.
- Return the lamb shanks and any juices on the plate to the pot and bring to a simmer. Cover and transfer to the oven and cook for 20 minutes. Reduce the heat to 250 degrees F and continue to cook another 1 hour and 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When the foam subsides, add quince wedges, tossing to coat with butter, and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 10 minutes total, reducing the heat if they threaten to burn. Transfer to a small bowl and reserve.
- After the lamb has cooked for 1 1/2 hours total, transfer the pot to the stove top and skim most of the fat from the surface. In a small bowl, dissolve the brown sugar in the lime juice and stir into the lamb. Stir in the saffron water, the reserved quince and the split peas, making sure the peas are submerged. Return liquid to a simmer, cover and return to the oven and cook until the split peas are just tender but still a bit firm and holding their shape, for 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the age and type of peas.
- Transfer the pot to the stove top and let the stew rest, uncovered, for 15 minutes. The stew should be quite fluid but lightly thickened from the peas; it should be richly flavored and mildly sweet and sour. If necessary, simmer for up to 10 minutes more to concentrate the flavors. Skim again and add salt to taste, if needed, by shaking the pot to and fro to distribute it, taking care not to break up the meat and pieces of fruit. Divide lamb, quince, and sauce between serving bowls and serve garnished with lime wedges, if you like.

I've written earlier about "illegal" Linux, but I now think I have a pretty good idea how it could come to be.
John Dvorak wrote about licensing computer users, but that's not what's going to happen. No, what the s.o.b's will probably try to do is license operating systems that can connect to the internet.
Here's the argument they'll make: unpatched, unlicensed operating systems are too dangerous. National security is at stake, and businesses are losing billions of dollars because of this.
Only "approved" operating systems will be allowed to connect. Of course Microsoft will happily include Windows 98 and NT4 in the unapproved list, because then it's not their fault you have to upgrade.
Microsoft and anyone else who wants to play will have to build certain bogus "safeguards" into their offerings, but no Open Source need apply because obviously it's too easy to pervert the safeguards if you have source. So anything you can build yourself, that hasn't been compiled by a duly licensed operating system vendor, will be illegal on the Net.
So you'll be able to use your Linux, but not if it connects to the internet. Effectively, that means you can't use it at all.
This really can happen. I am certain that plans along this line are being pitched right now. Our legislators will love the idea: it shows them as being proactive on national security, pro-business, anti-virus, anti-spam, and think of the economic boost from all those forced upgrades and conversions. Heck, it's tech boom all over again.
Keep your eyes and ears open. If you see anything that even vaguely smells like this, report it and try to counter it. I don't think I'm off base here.. though I would love to be.
See Internet access is not a right also.

Do not get NEAR this stupid product, and definitely don't let it touch your nails. I got it for 75% off at CVS, which made it less than $3. Don't let anyone PAY you to take this product.
I usually always silk wrap my nail if it breaks low, but since I had this product, I figured I'd give it a shot. It went on a THOUSAND times more easily than a silk wrap. I just painted glue over the break, then sprinkled the acrylic powder over it. It dried quickly and I was able to buff it to a smooth finish. I thought I had found the greatest nail repair product ever!!
It became SO dry and brittle despite my frequent moisturizing. Finally, it cracked. And when a silk wrap cracks, it usually doesn't continue the crack in the nail. Oh my goodness did this Insta-Fix continue the nail break. Parts of the glue/acrylic started to crumble off and it looked awful. I got home and soaked and soaked and soaked the repair in acetone. I used the foil method and everything. It wouldn't budge AT ALL. My poor cuticles took such a beating being wrapped in acetone and tin foil for so long :( I tried my best to gently break off more of the repair, but it seemed like it penetrated into my nail. When it finally started to loosen, I was able to get it off... and it SHREADED my nail and took a whole chunk of it with it. SHREADED it. Like paper thin and shreaded. No clean, angular break. It was like when you go to bite a piece of celery and it leaves all of those strings and jagged pieces. I wish I had taken a photo of it, but I was just so livid that I didn't think about it then. I just wanted to fix my poor nail :(
I couldn't even get the rest of the repair off. I kept trying to soak it and it wouldn't work. And I'm too terrified to try to pry it off. It DESTROYED the part that came off, I'm not taking chances right now until I figure out some other way to get it off.
So please, please, please don't use this product!! Choose something else or stick with whatever you normally do to repair a nail. But do NOT use this.

I bought this because it was on clearance and I was curious to see what exactly it did. OMG this stuff is AWESOME. I put in on a couple of my finger nails just to see if it really worked and I was amazed. I don't actually need it right now because I don't have any broken nails but I'm going to hang onto it for when I do need it.
My nails peel a lot and I'm thinking of using it when the edges of my nails get too thin. ??
I had to write a review because this stuff is excellent stuff.
Wow! Okay, it took me a while to realize that this is supposed to like fill in chips and stuff rather than strengthen, but I could still use it so I did. So I have very brittle nails, especially my toe nails. And I do ballet, so brittle nails and pointe shoes don't exactly go together well. Anyways, so I followed the directions. Brush the glue, put the powder, etc. After it dries completely, you need to buff it so it's smooth. Afterwards, I couldn't even feel the chip anymore and it was so smooth. I can use nail polish on my toes again! Well, I highly recommend it. By the way, the glue smells like rotten lettuce and the powder is a bit annoying to use, but other than that, I will buy again.
My nail recently broke on the side, and i didnt want to cut it off because im trying hard to let them grow out. I went to CVS and picked this stuff up and it was amazing. I painted the glue on the entire nail and sprinkled the acrylic powder on it. it has worked wonders and it hasnt broken off again. i would def. but this product again.
My nail cracked really low and I didnt want to rip it off because I knew it would be painful, not to mention, look terrible :-)
So I picked this up at the drugstore and, I must say, I was very impressed! It comes in a double ended tube. One end being glue that is applied with a brush, just like a nail polish, and the other end is a small container of acrylic powder in a "sprinkle" form.
I used this product a little differently from Robotica though. I cleaned up the nail and made sure it was nice and clean and dry. I then brushed on the glue over the entire nail - not just the broken part. Then sprinkled the powder over the entire nail so it sticks to the glue. (shake off any excess.) It takes about a minute or 2 to dry. When it's dry, it looks and feels a little rough but after some light filing and a little buffing - it's good as new! It's been 3 days and it's still rock solid! I definitely recommended getting this product and keeping it in your bag for a time when you might need it. It's worth it! And I think it would last quite a long time. Good stuff.

Okay. So I had an accident at the library trying to slip out a Dylan Thomas book when my left-hand pointer finger nail bent back halfway down. Ouch!! I put some ointment on it and drove home to quickly repair it with the Instant Fix. It was my first time using it as I saved it for the dreaded day any of my nails split in half. First, clean the area before you use it to keep infection away. Then sprinkle the powder on the nail. Next, apply the glue in a thin layer. It is gooey and stinks, but let it dry and if possible put pressure on the nail to make it adhere better with an orange stick. After it dries, you can use a topcoat or polish over it. I did cut my nail down to keep it from breaking anymore, but the glue became less stable after many hand washings, so it is not the strongest, but it may help for a few days or so. NOTE: if you keep applying it when it starts to break at the line again, it builds up the glue making it look lumpy on your finger, use a bandaid for reinforcement. Also, I was able to remove it after a week peeling it off and my nail was at the wick to where I could cut off the offending split nail. It's not a miracle product, but this can save you from having to cut your nail off painfully halfway.

Timbral Hauntings is an interactive installation work that borrows ideas from soundscape analysis and the convergence of how "echos and ethos" reshape the present and future. Timbral Hauntings 'listens' to the soundscape of the space, analyzing the timbre of each acoustic event; cataloguing the eight most commonly occurring timbral phrases throughout the life of the system. As a critical number of events are collected, the system selects the most commonly occurring timbral phrase. This phrase is used to shape the timbre of the 'present' in the hauntings of the past. At the same time the selected phrase from the past is analyzed for near timbral matches from the present. When a match occurs, those near moments from the past are played back in an attempt to influence the future in repeating the past. As the composition progresses, new phrases from the past are selected, allowing for the constant progression in the emergent composition.
Participants to the space are welcome to wander the space, simply sit and listen, or contribute to the composition, in any way they feel comfortable, including playing the instruments laid out.
Timbral Hauntings is part of the Sonic Spaces Project.
The audio files above are iterations of this project at various points along its development cycle.
This piece will be installed as part of the 2014 International Computer Music Conference (ICMC) in Athens, Greece. Along with the installation of the piece, I will be presenting a paper describing the development of the piece. This paper will be available on-line around the time of the conference in September. I will also make the code (which I consider as the score object) publicly available around that time.

Blizzard's CG team talks about making those epic cinematics
One of the first questions that comes up is one that everyone would like to ask: Why haven't we seen a longer feature from these guys? But they say that, as always, their first priority is making great games, not great features, and as much as people would want to see a 60 or 90 minute cinematic from this team, they work for a game company. They also talk about something they've been working more on lately: in-game cinematics. I saw this at work in Starcraft II back at BlizzCon -- while most of Blizzard's cinematics so far have been completely separate from the in-game art, Starcraft II introduces models that are high-quality enough to be rendered cinematically, so much of the actual cutscenes are in-game rather than in separately rendered CGI. But as the team points out, their goal is to make them no less awesome.
Finally, they do get into the nitty-gritty of designing their cinematics, and 3D animators will enjoy the ins and outs of how Blizzard made Arthas summon that Frostwyrm. We're just in awe of how much great work this team does -- hopefully we'll be seeing lots more of it in the future.

John Lydon: "The riots are going to lead to something far far worse"
Public Image Ltd.'s John Lydon has said he fears that last summer's riots are the precursor to "something far, far worse".
Speaking in this week's issue of NME, which is on UK newsstands and available digitally now, Lydon has said he was "deeply ashamed" of how the government handled the situation and that you can still "feel the tension" on the streets.
Asked for his take on last summer's riots, Lydon replied: "I was very upset with it. People got killed. It was a great tragedy, a great tragedy caused by a government and a police force that's completely indifferent to what young people have as a future. They're given nothing now, even less than when I was young and that hurts me deeply."
Then asked if he thought this was a sign of things to come, Lydon added: "It's definitely going to lead to something far, far worse. It's brewing. It's palpable. You can feel the tension. It's waiting to go off like an enormous bomb. It will be blamed on the kids on the street, and it isn't their fault. I'm very deeply ashamed of a government that doesn't have a clue what's going on."
Lydon is preparing to release his first album with PiL in 20 years, This Is PiL, on May 28.

Schwarzkopf Professional Flatliner Iron Serum Review
Peter Anthony Product Review
Schwarzkopf Professional Flatliner Iron Serum
Condition of Hair:
About the Company
An innovator in haircare products and Europe's most influential hair color leader, Schwarzkopf Professional has been pioneering the development of ground-breaking products for over a century.
Preferred choice of the world's most celebrated hairstylists and colorists, Schwarzkopf Professional is consistently seen on fashion runways, in leading international fashion publications and on the world's most beautiful and fashionable people.
What is it supposed to DO?
Ultra flat control with straightening Iron, Used on dry hair, 392°f heat proof ingredients, Long lasting ultra fl at shiny, silky looking hair, Humidity protection, Smoothes & reduces frizz, tames curly and wavy hair, Even results without any compromise!
How important is scent?
Well there is no real scent to this product, which WE LOVE, this is not the type of product that we would want competing with a signature scent. We also would not want that scent being heat pressed into the hair. Very light styling scent that dissipated within minutes.
How does the product feel when you use it?
Spray on in a firm mist and left the hair feeling great once we moved the straightening iron through.You can feel the hair 'smoothing' out as you use it.
How does the packaging look and hold up?
I love this packaging, overall it is one of our favorites. Big fans of the recycled aluminum, set of with the better spray trigger in Red, I love it! looks great on a station and awesome in your home. I also think the packaging SIZE is perfect. Just the right amount of control and great misting.
Holding Power
We put it through the paces!
We set our irons to 390 and started rocking and rolling. We tried it out on two types of hair ONE dried well with great Boar bristle brushes. The other dried fast and not as straight, more like you would do in the morning if you were in a hurry.
First the "Salon Dried Hair" worked much better then we even expected and as with all Schwarzkopf Professional Hair Care Products we expected A LOT! But man it was easy, great slip with our irons (we used three of those as well, the Amika and the ConAir Infiniti Pro, and the Kwof) All three are great Irons but the price points varied so we wanted to see how the product performed with the something that a professional would use and perhaps a client would use.
All three had great results with Flatliner Flattening Iron Serum. OK but we used it in a salon type of condition so it worked great and we really made sure the blow dry was tight and clean. Fair enough.
Second; we worked on a quick dry (normal to thick) head of hair. BAM the product rocked out. it made the hair straighten much faster, cleaner and last longer then had we not used the product. BUT remember WE are reviewing products for people to use NOT stylists so I handed the can and the iron to my client and said go. She clipped the hair out of the way, started at the bottom, misted the serum onto the hair, ran the iron through ... BAM! Same great results and it was simple and easy. The misting action of the spray nozzle really helped here we feel. Great results.
Peter Anthony and his friends share tricks of the trade!
First make sure your using a great iron, the ones we mentioned we love and the prices vary so there is really something for everyone. Mist the product from 10 inches and try to lightly move it while spraying. The great thing we found is that you do not really need to use a whole lot to get great results. Keep your tension even when using the iron so keep it at the slightest angle.
The better the dry the better the overall style, here is what NO product will do, Create a style! A great CUT and a great finish will allow all products to perform better. That being said make sure you finish your hair line and fringe areas completely, this will really help you get the right style going.
Products you will need to complete the experience
Great Brush, We love Denman so check those out but there are planty of great ones and we have revued many. A great iron, and great prep products (shampoo and conditioner). So of course you expected us to say that BUT WE SAID it because it is true "if you want great consistent results you need great tools" PERIOD!
Peter Anthony shares his last thoughts on the product
If you straighten your hair get this into the collection. is it a Stand Alone product "for sure". So you do not need to switch your line here but MOST lines will not have as strong a straightener Serum as Schwarzkopf Professional Flatliner Iron Serum. I really liked working with this.

Anyone ever use old carpet to cover weedy areas?
When I came home from work, I noticed one of the apartments across from my house was having new carpet installed. I asked what they were going to do with the old stuff; they said toss it in the landfill. I asked if I could have it to cover the weeds in the backyard and they said "sure" but backed away from the nutty lady. I dragged it home and the backyard (which no one sees) looks like a patchwork quilt of carpet (which, to be honest, looks better than what I have inside my house). Gail |
Follow-Up Postings:
Gail, Depends on what kind of weeds you're talking about. I tried this once under my compost pile to try to keep the Bermuda Grass from invading. Suffice to say, it was not one of my finer moments ;) The rhizomes grew right thru and when I tried to pull up the carpet a couple of years later I strained my back badly, (I was hurting for months). If you were to try this technique with something like oxalis or spurge you might have better luck. Mike |
Interesting... we're pulling up our carpet right now. |
- Posted by susanzone5 z5NY (My Page) on Wed, Sep 21, 05 at 2:02
Just don't use it near food crops since there are a million chemicals involved with carpet manufacture. Also, if seeds fall on it, they might sprout and grow right in the carpet, plus, you may be inviting mold to grow, depending on the fiber. I use carpet as a pathway through the mud under my deck. |
Gail, I have used room sized rugs for this purpose for 4 years now. It started because I wanted to kill grass in a full sun area & wanted to get rid of old rug smelling of dog! I never considered the chemicals but have been lucky so far. I only left the rug down long enough to kill the grass then added compost, peat moss etc. and mulch. The 8'by 10' size was just right for me to amend the soil & plant one season at a time. This year I used newspaper in 4-5 layers as suggested by several GW forums as I don't have to move them like I did the rug. |
Has anyone taken old carpet and then placed gravel on top of it? Would that work or are we wasting time and alot of heart ace later? We don't plan on pulling this up or growing anything there - just trying to kill the weeds then keep them from coming back. |
I don't have any experience with carpet, but I do with landscape fabric. Rocks wear holes in the fabrics and then weeds/seeds poke their way through. And then it's very difficult to pull weeds that spread by rhizomes and roots. Dandelions are easy, though! I imagine something like this could happen with carpet. I suppose if you aren't planning on planting the area ever you would be okay, just spray roundup as needed. |
Carpet is a temporary smothering device and maybe also good for paths. As far as how safe it is - I dunno, probably depends on the kind of carpet. I made the mistake of leaving out some carpet after it degraded a bit when I tried to use it to smother some english ivy (a pointless task). Now I have a tattered carpet with english ivy growing through it and over it, etc. |

First municipal parks system to join the Smithsonian Affiliations Program

Harold Closter, Director of the Smithsonian Affiliations Program, will join City of Austin officials at the news conference.
The Smithsonian's unparalleled collections, scholarship, and exhibitions document the world in all of its beauty, diversity, and complexity. The Austin Parks and Recreation Department and the Economic Growth and Redevelopment Services Office, will bring the Smithsonian to Austin's community and create lasting experiences that will broaden perspectives on science, history, world cultures and the arts. The mission of Smithsonian Affiliations is to share these resources with Americans in their own communities by developing collaborative partnerships with museums, cultural and educational organizations.

Smithsonian Affiliations also offers career development workshops for museum professions, stipend internships for Affiliate-based students, and stipend research opportunities for Affiliate-based visiting professionals.

Joakim Noah, Nate Robinson help Chicago Bulls beat Boston Celtics | NBA
Center Joakim Noah had a triple-double and ex-Washington Huskies guard Nate Robinson scored 12 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter to help the host Chicago Bulls beat Boston 100-89.
CHICAGO — After enjoying one of the most complete games of his career, Joakim Noah might have invented a new position for himself.
Noah posted a triple-double and ex-Washington Huskies guard Nate Robinson played a prominent role in the fourth quarter as the Chicago Bulls beat the Boston Celtics 100-89 Tuesday night.
"I take pride in trying to bring energy every night," Robinson said.
Noah collected 11 points, 13 rebounds and a career-high-tying 10 assists for his second career triple-double.
"I always tell people I'm a point-center anyway," a joking Noah said after the game. "I always feel like I can pass the ball. I feel more comfortable with the offense and we have a lot of people who can score the ball in different ways."
Robinson scored 12 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter; he made 5 of 7 three-point attempts.
"I had to go back to my whole Peter Pan theory, man," Robinson said. "You can't fight without happy thoughts."
Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer had 21 points each for Chicago (14-10).
Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau implored his team to play at a faster pace after it lost 80-71 to the Grizzlies on Monday in Memphis.
"They were clearly the tougher, more physical team," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said of the Bulls. "They took us out of everything with their effort."
Rajon Rondo had 26 points for Boston (12-12), which has lost a season-high three in a row.
"We're going to keep searching," Rivers said. "This team is not a good team right now. This is who we are right now. A .500 team."
Nuggets beat Spurs
DENVER — Danilo Gallinari scored a season-high 28 points, outlasting Tim Duncan down the stretch and leading the Denver Nuggets over the San Antonio Spurs 112-106.
Duncan had 31 points — also a season best — to go along with 18 rebounds for the Spurs, who have lost four of their last five.
Heat wins at home
MIAMI — Dwyane Wade scored 24 points, LeBron James added 22 points and 11 assists and the Miami Heat beat Minnesota 103-92 despite getting outrebounded 52-24 by the Timberwolves.
Chris Bosh scored 15 points and Mario Chalmers added 12 for the Heat, which gave up 21 of the game's first 24 rebounds.
• Lou Williams scored a season-high 24 points and Josh Smith had 17 points and 13 rebounds to lead Atlanta past host Washington 100-95 in overtime.
• David Lee had 26 points and nine rebounds, ex-Washington State standout Klay Thompson scored 19 points and the host Golden State Warriors beat New Orleans 103-96.
• Kobe Bryant scored four of his 30 points in the final 1:26 and the host Los Angeles Lakers overcame an 18-point third-quarter deficit to edge Charlotte 101-100, handing the Bobcats their 12th straight loss.
Pau Gasol, back after missing eight games with tendinitis in both knees, had 10 points on 3-for-10 shooting and nine rebounds in 29:25 for the Lakers, who have won three in a row.
