In many cases a project which you wish to migrate may not be located on the same PG/PC on which the TIA Portal is installed. For this reason the initial project must first be converted into a format that is compatible for the migration. Thereafter you can copy the migration file to the PG or PC with the current installation of the TIA Portal. There you can then import the file to the TIA Portal and create a project in the current file format of the TIA Portal.
To carry out a migration without the initial software, the following preparatory steps are necessary:

Seems everyone called her mom. Iris' home was the one where all the kids seem to gravitate. Though her house wasn't big, its walls were elastic; there was always room for someone to stay when they needed a place. On her stove you'd find a 2nd vegetable in case some of the neighborhood kids wanted dinner and even the neighbor's dog knew that their home was the safe place to be. Iris had the ability to remember everyone's name (unless she was yelling at her kids) and she knew everyone's birthday: people were important to her.
She had a competitive side; an athlete from the days of her youth, Iris taught kids gymnastics, how to hold a bat and how to throw a ball. She posted her Rummy 500 score sheets on the fridge, and though Mom Mom may have occasionally been beaten, she made her grandkids work for it. Battling Jeopardy and doing crossword puzzles in ink kept her mind sharp. On Sundays, Iris would gather her flock back to her home for eye roast and baked macaroni. Her favorite pondering spot was by the kitchen counter, though some argued she was just fishing for a back rub. Her hugs were legendary and her advice was sage; Iris had quality conversations.
Though she wasn't initially attracted to the World War II sailor who demanded a kiss after a few too many (and may have dumped out his drink), Iris endeavored to give Philip a second chance. Their first date was in November; in March they'd embark on a 48 year marriage. They'd be the love of each other's lives until his passing in 1994, and they made sure to never keep it a secret.
They were blessed with four daughters, Phyllis, Susan Lanser (Mike), Jean Grabowski (Bob), and Jennie Esposito (Lou); seven grandchildren, Brian (Lisa), Lawren (Dan), Michael, Amanda (Dan), Joseph, Nicolas, and Luca; and two great grandchildren, Michael and Ian. She is survived by her brother, Victor Watson (Shirley); and was preceded in death by siblings, Horace, Rachel, and Melvin.
Come celebrate 86 motherly years from 7 to 9 p.m. on Sunday, and from 9:30 to 11 a.m. on Monday, at Sweeney Funeral Home, Riverside, where there will be a service at 11 a.m. Interment in Brig. Gen. William C. Doyle Memorial Cemetery, Wrightstown.
In lieu of flowers, donation to the ARC of Gloucester County, thearcgloucester.org, would be appreciated. Sweeney Funeral Home

Shell agrees to adopt procedures at nearly 600 Washington stations
OLYMPIA -- Attorney General McKenna today announced a new effort to help extinguish minors' access to cigarettes.
Thanks to an agreement between McKenna, 46 other attorneys general, Shell Oil Products US and its joint venture Motiva Enterprises LLC, new procedures will be adopted to reduce the sales of cigarettes to minors at nearly 600 gas station convenience stores statewide.
"You can't smoke them if you can't get them," McKenna said. "We're targeting the places we know that kids are likely to go for cigarettes. With this agreement, Shell joins the growing list of companies ramping up their work to keep cigarettes out of the hands of minors in Washington and nationwide."
Nationwide, 47 percent of minors who reported buying cigarettes said they did so at gas station convenience stores. Shell and Motiva supply gasoline through approximately 14,000 gas stations in the U.S., 13,000 of which are in states participating in the agreement. Many of these gas stations include independently operated convenience stores that sell tobacco products. State law prohibits tobacco sales to minors.
The Shell Assurance of Voluntary Compliance (AVC) was produced by an ongoing, multistate enforcement effort by the attorneys general and outlines best practices developed in consultation with public health researchers and state and federal tobacco control officials. The plan provides for comprehensive training of retail clerks about laws prohibiting tobacco sales to minors, independent compliance checks to monitor sales practices at convenience stores at Shell stations, and potential sanctions against operators that sell tobacco to minors.
Other recent multistate agreements cover gas station convenience stores selling fuel under the Conoco, Phillips 66 or 76, Exxon, Mobil, BP, Amoco, ARCO and Chevron brand names, and retail and pharmacy chains Kroger, 7-Eleven, Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS and Wal-Mart.
Studies show that most adult smokers began smoking before the age of 18 and that young people are particularly susceptible to the hazards of tobacco, often showing signs of addiction after smoking only a few cigarettes.

Indiana Allows BP To Pollute Lake Michigan
Re:The SUV Will Win Every Time (490 comments)
If you own an SUV and you pay for exorbitant fuel, you are: a) less money than a person getting a compact and b) unwise, since there are several compact cars available that aren't gas snobs.
Heck, I celebrate christmas, and I have a tree sticking out both my windows from either end on the ride home. The real benefit is that the car smells like pine for the next couple of weeks.

May 5, 2014 11:37 AM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
JAMUL, Calif. (AP) - A doctor says a toddler who was bitten three times by a rattlesnake is lucky to be alive.
Relatives tell KGTV in San Diego that A.J. Taylor was bitten on the stomach as he played Friday on the patio of his grandparent's home in Jamul, about 20 miles east of San Deigo. He was able to return to the home Saturday, where he is recovering nicely.
Grandmother Dian Taylor says she hopes what happened to A.J. can be a lesson to others because the heat is bringing out the rattlesnakes and they blend in so well that you can't see them and they strike so fast, it's hard to get away from them.
The doctor says if more venom had been released into the boy's system, he could have died.

I have used this product for 2 years and have looked various websites for it. I believe the price, including your site is a little high. would like to get a better price for purchasing a greater volume.
I used one container from my previous batch to make the next batch and actually repeated that again getting 3-seven jar batches from one packet of dry culture. I actually think you can go more generations than that. If you use a new packet for each batch your cost per jar nets out to be about the same price as store bought yogurt but of course you are getting a better food out of making it in the yogurt maker.
I've been using these with my new yogurt maker, and they are excellent! Makes the most delicious yogurt.

With this product, I am able to keep my family including dogs in good health. Of course, now they are spoiled - the humans and the dogs. After eating the yogurt made with the Starter Packs, store bought yogurts do not measure up!

This Week In DVD: December 20th
Features By Rob Hunter on December 20, 2011 | Be the First To CommentIt's a fairly quiet week in the world of DVD releases, but that doesn't mean there aren't some quality titles hitting shelves. Two fantastic films arrive today, and while they barely made a ripple at the box office that doesn't mean they're not worth your time. Other movies out today include the wonderfully suspenseful Julia's Eyes, the ridiculously overrated Midnight In Paris, the just plain ridiculous Columbiana and more. As always, if you see something you like, click on the image to buy it. Warrior Two men, one a high school teacher with a family (Joel Edgerton) and the other an ex-Marine hero (Tom Hardy), find themselves on different paths to the same goal: winning a high-profile MMA tournament and the large cash prize that goes with it. The story moves back and forth between the men and their situations until they finally merge together in the ring. Sports stories in general aren't really my thing, but I do enjoy a tale well told. Director Gavin O'Connor and his two leads (as well as supporting player Nick Nolte) fill the film with heart, great character and honest suspense. Most surprising of all, both men have an equal shot at victory and viewers will be thrilled and satisfied whichever way it ends. Lots of fantastic films were missed by audiences by year, but this is one underdog that deserves a second shot at victory. Check out Robert Levin's full review.
Don't Be Afraid of The Reject Report
Box Office By Jeremy Kirk on August 26, 2011 | Be the First To CommentOr the dark. There's actually probably more to be afraid of in the dark than in this week's Reject Report. Unless, of course, you have a phobia of numbers. Arithmophobia. It's a real thing. Thanks, Google. But back to this week's offerings. We've got a horror movie, a female assassin actioner, and a Sundance comedy starring Paul Rudd. Needless to say, it's not a matter of if The Help will lead the pack for the third weekend in a row. It's a matter of by how much. It could be a close race, and when all is said and done it doesn't look like the weekend numbers will be anything to be thrilled about. In fact, you can sweep them under the rug. With the dust. Because you're frightened of that, too. Koniophobia. Thanks again, Google!

Tim Burgess places a personal with 'The Stranger,' a new leader takes over at The Nature Conservancy in Seattle and why you keep missing the downtown holiday tree lights.
Mayor fallout
One thing is sure now that prime-time candidate Tim Burgess has officially joined the mayor's race more than 11 months ahead of the election: It's going to be a long campaign. What has a lot of political and media people talking is that Burgess chose The Stranger as the medium for making the announcement, giving a long interview to Dominic Holden (who did an insightful, at times wry job of writing it).
The approach brought some quick reactions on Twitter, but the larger question is whether his choice of news outlet will matter as the campaign unfolds, likely with the inclusion of Ron Sims, as Publicola noted this morning.
The Stranger is a Pulitzer Prize winning paper, but it's a safe bet that a few Seattle Times editorial staffers were less than thrilled.
But as The Times' Emily Heffter pointed out this afternoon, several publications had the story at the same time on Tueseday (though not with as much in the way of detailed quotes as The Stranger). And she noted that Holden criticized Burgess on Facebook for not keeping to his promise of an exclusive story and that Burgess apologized. Burgess did say The Stranger received his most extensive interview, which the various stories seemed to reflect.
New Nature Conservancy leadership
The Seattle office of The Nature Conservancy oversees some very active programs for the big national environmental organization. There's a lot of excitement around the selection of a new state director with an unusual and award-studded background to head the 73-person office.
Mike Stevens has won national awards from the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management. He comes to the Conservancy after a nine-year stint running a for-profit land and livestock company and earlier experience with the Conservancy in Idaho and New Hampshire.
Police post video of their own
It may be possible to teach an entrenched department a few new tricks. The Seattle Police Department has apparently decided that two can play at the video release game.
As a video of a recent arrest was coming out, they briefed the media on the incident. And now the department's Web site includes a video of the entire briefing, which included playing the dash-cam recording of the arrest, which included jarring footage of an officer punching the suspect who was held by two other officers. The suspect had just spit at the officer.
The accompanying police statement says, "A particular force tactic employed by one arresting officer raised questions by the SPD chain of command and a decision was made to send the case to [the department's Office of Professional Accountability] for review." As Sgt. Sean Whitcomb makes clear, that refers to the officer putting his hands on the neck of the suspect, which occurred before the spitting and punch. Although attorneys earlier dropped charges, the police say they continue to believe the suspect should be charged for a hit-and-run involving minor injuries to a woman bicyclist.
Downtown tree lights
Downtown Seattle's holiday season is up and running, with a wealth of light-drenched activities and its own website, HolidaysInSeattle.com, to highlight them. But a certain shadow is cast over all of this holiday cheer by the mostly-dark Westlake holiday tree. Unlike in past years, this year's tree is actually unlit most of the time; a holiday disappointment for many downtown visitors.
For those who wonder if the lights aren't working or just aren't there, it turns out that this year's environmentally-correct LED lights only turn on once an hour (on the hour) from 4 to 10 p.m. The lighting is coordinated with a musical accompaniment, as the below video from last Friday's tree lighting shows. However, the lights seem to be out of commission at the moment. A spokeswoman for General Growth Properties, owner of Westlake Center, told us in an email late this afternoon: "The hourly performances will be a fun, interactive musical treat for the community. Our team is working closely with our vendor to address a few technical issues with the tree as quickly as possible. We look forward to letting you and the community know as soon as it is up and running again."
If the whole hourly lights thing isn't for you, Woodland Park Zoo is holding its first winter lighting show, which will be open through the first of the year. And don't forget the Bellevue Botanical Gardens' Garden d'Lights (which runs through Dec. 31st). It may be a lot farther than from Seattle's center of the universe (Fremont), but the Bellevue display is said to out-count the zoo with it's claim of "over a half-million lights."

the previous owners put up wallpaper border. it was stuck really well. tried DIF, vinegar etc and none worked. bought a steam which worked a bit better, but wallpaper still came down in little pieces.
i've gotten most of it off, but there are still little bits and pieces left. i tried using a sponge with DIF to get the glue and paper off but it's very difficult. is there a better way to clean off these scrapes? or can i just clean the wall (i have dirtex), and use GARDZ over it?! the room isn't that big, but big enough to be annoying (it's a 2nd bedroom to be used as a computer room). the wallpaper border is in the middle of the wall. Thanks for your help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hey Ummmm! I've had a couple good comments on this... At the Brian Santos seminar here recently: Let us know how it goes! Faron |
thanks faron for the quick reply! thanks for the tips! need to get some 'painter's plastics' then (haven't heard of it before... you learn something new everyday). i have some zinssar 123 already so i guess i should be able to use just that after cleaning it and all. gosh can't wait to get this room done... still have more wallpaper borders to take down yet! |
Wish I could say it was my idea! Makes perfect sense though...just like wrapping up a hamburger to keep it moist. Do ya have your Paper-Tiger for the future borders?! Faron |
Instead of using a sponge to get paste off, try a green scrubbie pad like the ones you would use to clean dishes. Go in a circular motion to help loosen the paste. Also, it's best when the DIF solution is hot....the hotter the better. I have found lately that Chomp wallpaper stripper works better than DIF. |

The Chomp product sounds very interesting. I have a wallpaper removal job coming up. Where can I buy Chomp? TIA. Tina |
- Posted by denali_2007 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 2, 08 at 11:23
I used something called Wallwick for boarders which works exactly like Faron was suggesting. You can buy it for boarders and walls. I think the key is leaving it up there and keeping it wet. Be sure to use the paper tiger. I'm going to use the painters plastic I my next two rooms. The Wallwick looks like a piece of cotton and sticks to the wall to keep it moist. They suggested 20 min but I found you had to leave it longer. |
- Posted by brushworks (My Page) on Sun, Mar 2, 08 at 11:51
"IF" you use the paper tiger, be sure you apply light pressure against the wall or you'll be repairing pinholes left in the drywall coversheet. Most strippable wallcoverings are easily removed once the cover is stripped away, leaving the backing sheet to be soaked and scraped away. My kitchen remodeling crew is starting a Sanitas removal tomorrow. I hope for the best for the owner since I quoted it by the hour.:) Michael |
Chomp! fans.... Yes, this stuff is good! We sell twice as much Chomp! relative to DIF; and we've got both types of DIF sprays, concentrate-gallons, etc. Chomp! is available to ACE stores thru ACEnet. (I can post SKU's if needed!) >>> We've had it at our ACE for ~2 yrs. now! Wallwik... I DO like Santos' practice of just using a big sheet(s) of painters-plastic, and just lettin' the room soak. This really intrigued me! Faron |
I have that same problem, ummm. Every room of this house we bought has borders around the ceilings. They have to go!! Maybe someone has tried this and can advise--I heard using equal parts of cheap fabric softener and water sprayed on the paper makes it easier to take off. Anyone ever tried it? I'm sure not looking forward to removing the darned stuff. |
THANK YOU for all the advice! the sponge i have is a zinssar one. but will try the green ones or the scrubbers too. the DIF i have is already in a spray bottle, but i guess i can soak it in hot water to make it hot? if the DIF still doesn't work then will get some chomp! i just recently found out about wallwik, but i thought it sounds like the same principal as what faron has described. will let you know how that works! gosh i hope the next would will be easier (1 room with border in the middle of the wall, then border up near the ceiling in the kitchen/dining room, the border and wallpaper in the bottom half of the wall in a small bath... ) thanks again! |
I just posted this on other page, but, anyway, removed some border in the bathroom, I use DW's conair fabric steamer. It scraped off very easy, it doesn't say anything in the paperwork about using it for this but tried it and was very happy with the results. We have some more high ceiling border in the dining room that I will be taking off when bathroom is finished painted. |
want to report back... it works!!! well our local ACE stores don't have CHOMP! (didn't even sound like they've heard of it) and i didn't want to order online as i wanted to finish it over the weekend. so i used the already-mixed DIF. didn't soak it in hot water (next time if i buy DIF, i'd not get the ready mix, so i can mix it in hot water... but should find out if CHOMP is sold around here...) The first time i sprayed the DIF and covered with painter plastic, waited for a couple of hours, and tried to use the sponge and scott's disposable rag to get the paper off but it didn't work well at all - i thought i cleaned it off but it was still there the next day. so i went to buy some 3M scotch brite and it worked much much much better! so thanks for the suggestion! it still takes some effort to clean it off, but at least it works... after i finish a section of the wall, i clean it with dirtex and the scott's rag because the wall was slimy with glue and DIF. i like using the scott's rag since i can just throw it away as it gets gross being all slimy. so good luck to the rest of you with the same problem! thanks again to all who helped! |
A good Latin phrase here... POST PROELIA PRAEMIA "After the battles come the rewards..." Ummm...tell your ACE to search on their ACEnet using "Chomp" in the as the search "description". Glad your battle was successful! Faron |
thanks faron - i went to ace's website, and found chomp there and said it can be shipped to the store... so always an option for the future! it took me 2 hours to scrub and clean last night for half of a small room, and it's just paper border only! thanks again! |

ummm - I feel for you. We just spent 4 1/2 hours this weekend trying to remove a wallpaper border in our kitchen. Uggg. DIF wasn't working well at all. Went and got the paper tiger and Chomp. Using both let us pull the cover off. Tried spraying more Chomp on the backing paper - not much luck. Went over the backing paper with paper tiger. more Chomp. lots of scraping - still some pieces remaining. Ran out of Chomp 2/3 away around the room. Back to using the DIF as stores were closed. That actually worked better on the backing paper than the Chomp. Went back over stubborn areas where Chomp didn't work with DIF and finally, success. Bottom line - for some reason one product worked well on certain things, the other in other portions |
berryberry - isn't that fun?! not! the wallpaper border in my kitchen and dinning room is up by the ceiling (as opposed to middle of the wall in the room i'd just done), so definitely not something i look forward to... i do have a steamer so hopefully it'd help. did you try putting plastic sheets over the border like faron mentioned above? that definitely helped. |
- Posted by berryberry (My Page) on Thu, Mar 13, 08 at 15:51
ummm. Yep - the border I removed was next to the ceiling. 9 foot ceilings to be exact. A real pain. Didn't try the plastic sheet trick - didn't read it til afterwards. I had removed one before that was chair rail height in my daughter's bedroom. That came off no problem. But this kitchen one. It put up a huge fight |

Softball: Carly Trepanier hits first career home run as Manteno takes down Lockport
By Bill Harrison For Sun-Times Media April 5, 2014 8:12PM
New Lenox, IL - Saturday, April 5, 2014: Lockport's Sidney Bottino (9) at bat vs Manteno during the Championship game of the Celtics Invitational. | Steve Johnston/For Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: May 8, 2014 9:52AM
In Saturday's championship game of the Providence Invite, Manteno junior shortstop Carly Trepanier couldn't believe what happened during the fifth inning against Lockport.
The lefty leadoff hitter cracked an opposite-field two-run home run that broke a 1-all tie. As she rounded second base, she put her hand over her mouth and appeared to be in shock when she realized the ball actually cleared the fence.
"Is this real?" Trepanier said to her teammates before heading back into the dugout.
It was real, and so was Manteno's 3-2 victory over the Porters. The Panthers remained undefeated while rebounding from a seventh-place finish in the tournament last season.
"There is a lot to be said about maturity," Manteno coach Josh Carlile said. "We won a lot of games last year but didn't win the games that counted."
Trepanier picked a good time and place to hit her first career over-the-fence homer for Manteno (8-0). She was 0-for-2 against Porters pitcher Justine Cielinski (1-1) before her big swing.
"I had a couple last year but they were [inside] the park," said Trepanier, who also had seven assists and two putouts on defense. "I thought I was in a dream to be honest. We've been working really hard since losing regionals (to Peotone)."
Western Illinois recruit Brooke Stulga (7-0) gave up a run in the third on a double by Jordan Arndt and an RBI single by Kelly Pattison that scored Arndt easily.
She gave up the other run in the seventh when future WIU teammate Sidney Bottino, a junior, pinch hit for the Porters (3-1) and drove a ball that hit the top of the scoreboard for a solo home run.
"She did a great job and I gave the (second-place) plaque to her for stepping up and cutting the lead in half," Lockport coach Marissa Chovanec said of Bottino. "It was exciting, and kudos to her for a great at-bat.
"I'm pleased. Our pitchers are learning from every outing and I'm excited with what we have."
Stulga gave up seven hits while striking out four.
Kiley Zajdzinski was 2-for-3 for the Panthers, including an RBI single in the second and a run scored in the fifth on Trepanier's home run. Jackie Beck added a double and a run scored.
Sarah DeMasi was 2-for-3 for Lockport and Haylie Arndt was 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored.
"We came in this thinking we wanted revenge," said Manteno catcher Sammy Beckwith, who has been playing with Stulga and Trepanier since she was 9. "We were the only Class 3A school here and we wanted to prove something and I think we did."

There is wide consensus that e-assessment promises many potential benefits to the JISC community, ranging from lowered costs, higher productivity, and faster feedback, through to assessments which are more accurate, more detailed, and more robust under critical scrutiny and audit. There is equally wide concern that these benefits seem relatively slow to materialise, and may be negated by poorer quality assessment which fails to reliably provide acceptably valid measures of actual student achievement and capability, particularly at the higher levels of Bloom's taxonomy of the cognitive domain. The issues confronting staff concerned with the quality management of e-assessment suggest a pressing need for evidence, for information, and for guidance.
Project Methodology
First, summative e-assessment practice in UK HE will be reviewed, and a selection of institutions will be recruited to participate in case studies. In the second stage, information will be gathered from a variety of sources about summative e-assessment quality management and assurance. In the third stage, the picture of best practice developed in stage two will be applied to the evidence and data collected from stage one. In stage four, the evaluation outcomes of stage.
Project Dates:
31st October 2009 to 31st March 2009

Forget Madonna on Crook & Chase. Or Michael Jackson chatting with Oprah. The Comeback Attempt of the Month award should go to Kathleen Turner. One of the top actresses of the '80s, now on the verge of joining Jill Clayburgh in deep career limbo, Turner has agreed to star in John Waters' black comedy Serial Mom, which begins shooting in Baltimore on April 12.
''She's a great actress and a real movie star,'' says Waters (Hairspray), whose past leading ladies have been more along the lines of Divine and Deborah Harry. The king of kitsch originally envisioned Serial Mom to be a low-budget true-crime parody starring Julie Andrews, Mary Tyler Moore, or Tuesday Weld as a cozy suburban mother who loves her kids so much that the friends they complain about have a habit of disappearing. Columbia Pictures asked Waters to consider ''higher casting.'' But the studio and Waters could never agree on the right star at the right price.
Jessica Lange, Sally Field, and Tracey Ullman were all considered, but the studio wanted Susan Sarandon for less money than her agency, ICM, was demanding. Columbia wouldn't meet Turner's price either, suggesting comedians Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase instead not the kind of ''straight'' casting Waters had in mind. ''Everything Columbia said translated to one thing,'' says Waters. ''Stall.'' (A Columbia spokesman refused to comment.)
After Columbia finally declined to make the picture, Serial Mom bypassed two other interested studios and landed new player Savoy Pictures, which was only too happy to pay $3 million for Turner. Savoy gets a star and a relatively inexpensive ($13 million) movie. And Turner may have finally found the right post-V.I. Warshawski commercial vehicle to give her back her bankability. (Her next picture, the downbeat psychological drama House of Cards, while well received at the Sundance Film Festival, is unlikely to play to a wide audience.) Turner is more than ready to return to the kind of bad-girl role that made her famous in such pictures as Body Heat, Prizzi's Honor, and The War of the Roses. As she says, ''I've been good long enough!''

This machine is being setup as a public computer and I wish to disable this menu altogether. I've tried setting SystemMenu=false in gdm.conf-custom but that only removed some of the menu items from F10.

Take Two for June 18, 2013
Apple says iMessage, FaceTime are safe from NSA surveillance
Win McNamee/Getty Images
Protesters rally outside the U.S. Capitol against the NSA's recently detailed surveillance programs June 13, 2013 in Washington, DC. Members of various action groups gathered to protest the ÒNational Security Agency's abuses of law abiding Americans.
Today NSA director Keith Alexander told the House Intelligence Committee that the government's surveillance programs have thwarted roughly 50 terrorist plots worldwide, including one directed at the New York Stock Exchange.
But there are still plenty of Americans concerned about the government monitoring their phone calls and emails.
Which may be why Apple offers this helpful suggestion: Use iMessage. Apple vows the text messaging service is encrypted and can't be read by anyone by the sender and the receiver.
It's the latest attempt by tech giants to assuage a nervous public. National Journal's technology writer Brian Fung has been looking into this and he joins the show with more.

Rolling back the years at Sun Valley
When Joe Burgy first laid eyes on Sun Valley Lodge in 1937 he thought to himself, "This is the most horrible looking thing – a dingy brown cement building stuck out in a hayfield surrounded by sagebrush." The future sports director for the resort just couldn't imagine what in the world they intended to do with this luxury hotel in the middle of the Idaho wilderness.
The transformation that occurred when Averell Harriman hauled in hundreds of trees from the surrounding mountains to spruce up the sagebrush flats around his million dollar gamble, is a testament to the power of landscaping.
Fast-forward to 2012 and the old lady was in need of a bit of a facelift. "That first landscaping went in 75 years ago and most of the trees then were collected off the mountain and Trail Creek," said Mike Turzian, owner of Sun Valley Garden Center and the man in charge of the resort's horticultural design for more than 35 years. "A lot of those trees have lived their life cycle and are at a point where they can no longer fight off disease. All the trees we removed this year were heavily infected with scale."
So it's a case of out with the old and in with the new as the diseased trees make way for approximately 350 young spruce trees, 500 new aspen, 2,000 sprightly shrubs, as well as hundreds of flats of flowers. The resulting look has opened up new views of the Lodge and let light back into the historic building, stripping decades off the grande dame of American skiing.
"It's definitely brought the architecture of Lodge back as a focal point and not the trees," said Turzian. The change is quite remarkable. I remember when I first saw Sun Valley Lodge almost a decade ago, I was surprised at how difficult it was to see the wooden facade for the trees. Today the sight is not dissimilar to that Burgy saw all those years ago, but instead of being surrounded by dusty sagebrush, the Lodge now stands tall amidst healthy young trees and the largest planting of flowers ever seen in the valley.
"The impetus for the change was both the age of the existing landscape as well as the goal of bringing it back to the standards Mr. Holding so enjoyed, when he first took charge of the resort."
According to Turzian, in his younger years Mr. Earl Holding loved tending to the landscaping, sometimes working side-by-side with the gardeners. "It was definitely his recreation," Turzian said. "Holding used to insist we wait until he arrived to start and would stay until the end of the day."
However horticultural historians need not despair, some of the oldest trees still remain. "The big trees on each side of the Lodge, and on the north side of the Inn were probably moved here by Harriman when they were 10 feet at the most. Now they are approaching 120 feet," Turzian said. That could make them over 100 years old.
Going forward, the biggest challenge for Turzian and his crew is trying to create some diversity in the landscape using the minimal amount of northern hardy nursery stock available to them. It's a tough job in a climate that routinely drops to -20. But the fresh look has also presented an opportunity to modernize. The new landscaping has been designed to minimize water use through installing more efficient sprinkler heads and a drip system, as well as selecting more drought tolerant plants, all while still maintaining the setting worthy of this special place.
Here are some images I snapped around the Lodge since the transformation began this spring. But don't take my word for it, come up and see for yourself.
Happy trails!

I'd love to trade NAMED leaves with someone. A leaf for a leaf in a large enough quantity to make the PRIORITY postage worth while. I'm in FLorida so trading soon is good for me. Barb |
- Posted by TrishOhiozone5_6 5-6Ohio (My Page) on Fri, Mar 25, 05 at 7:10
I'd be interested in a leaf trade too. However, the weather here really isn't warm enough to trust anything in the mail. |
I'm bringing this to the top again. Let's make this a LEAF TRADE. How many leaves would you suggest (that would make it worth while)-- sent by Priority postage? Also, don't forget...they must be 'named varieties'. Would April 15th or May 1st shipping dates be ok? Usually, in Illinois (my area) its safe for shipping by then. I hope the list of violet traders grow! Come on...join in! Debby |
I would love to participate. April 15 is fine, but then so is May 1. It'll take me a few days to send the list. Not that I have so many, just deadlines that take priority. I should have that behind me by Tue and can get the list to you by wed donna |
- Posted by barbcoleus z10 SWFL (My Page) on Sun, Mar 27, 05 at 22:38
I'd still like to participate in the leaf exchange. April 15th or May 1st would be good for me to send/receive leaves. I'll send the names by the end of this week and then I'll be ready. How do you plan for this to work? Barbara |
I'm waiting for more people to join in the swap. :) And once more do... and start sending in their "HAVE/WANT" lists, it should be very easy then to start matching up violet trading partners. I'll email each person with the trade partner's Name/address and a basic list of what they are interested in. We really are going need more participants to make this work. If we do get enough participants, it would great if we could have 3 different size swaps. (So we don't leave anyone out) All NAMED VARIETY, sent by 'priority' postage.... *****7-10 LEAVES***** (GROUP A) *****12-20 LEAVES**** (GROUP B) *****25-30 LEAVES**** (GROUP C) And of course we need to send out our packages out at the same time, we still have time to decide exactly what week. I'll post more later... Deb/IL |
Hi, Right now I only have two or three named avs but I have a trade coming for some more. I would love to be in your swap. I'm pretty sure it will be the group a. razz |
So far I've only received one trade list. :( Come on violet collectors... Join in the leaf exchange! This could be so much fun! Deb/IL |
- Posted by TrishOhiozone5_6 5-6Ohio (My Page) on Sun, Apr 10, 05 at 7:57
Debby have you gotten any more e-mails from people? I'm going to run down to the national convention on the 23rd. I'll have even more to trade then if people are interested. Trish |
Trish, No.. Your the only person who sent me your violet list. I thought the Leaf swap would of worked out much better than this. But, we still have time! ;) If we don't get any more to join in, I'll trade leaves with you Trish. I have quite a collection, and am in the process of making a list. I also have a large strep collection. I'll email you later... Debby |
- Posted by barbcoleus z10 SWFL (My Page) on Tue, Apr 12, 05 at 17:47
I'm still interested. Unfortunately this is the busy time of the school year plus I'm retiring so I'm cleaning out 20+ years of 'stuff'. I have plenty to exchange but not until after Memorial Day. Maybe by that time more people will have joined the group. Barb |
I will have more to add to this swap later in the spring when it warms up a bit more. please keep me in mind. raz |
Barb, Raz, I'm more than willing to wait! It's been so chilly over here in Illinois anyways. We were in the lower 80's for a few days, and now our nighttime temps are down to a little above freezing. I love Illinois weather, its so unpredictable! After Memorial day is fine with me. Whenever you have a chance, send me your lists! Thanks, |
Come on violet collectors...join in the trade! :) Moving this up to the top. Deb/IL. |
I'd like in please. |
Hi, So far I have only ONE trade list. This isn't going to work...unless we start getting more to join. I thought the violet leaf trade would of worked out very well! We still have a little more time. So please join in! Send those lists in! Deb |

Hi, I would love to trade named leaves. I think leaves travel better than plants. Would like to do 15-20 to make it worth the postage. Will send my have/want list in the next few days. Not quite warm enough here to ship yet. |
Finally, LOL! We have several trades going on...KEEP the lists coming! Mail them to..email@example.com :) I'm so happy this is working out! |
For those of you that have so many AVs, why not help us that are just starting out. I only have a few that came from local stores. Would pay postage or trade other plants. DD |
- Posted by journey149 9aFL (My Page) on Sun, May 8, 05 at 10:03
I have about 6 plants and i would like to trade some of my leaves |
I'm a newbie in planting AV. I've about 5 plants in my newly started collection. How do you cultivate from leafs? I would like to join in the trade but since I do not know the name of the small collection I have currently, I'm not sure if I should join in the trade lest I disappoint the people I trade with. |

Here's my list 1. Aca's Pink Delight |
Last chance to join in the LEAF exchange! This is the last week to join. Its June 6th today...and I'll accept lists until June 9th. Join in! Deb |
I sent my list yesterday. This sounds like fun!! Joan in KY |
Hi Joan, I received your list. Thanks so much! Everyone has until Friday...So, keep sending your exchange lists in! Deb |
Hi, An update.... As of Friday June 17th, only three people sent lists in. This leaf trade didn't work out as I expected. With only three lists, its not really easy to pair up trading partners, and no one really had what each one wanted (or what was looking for). :( Sorry... Let's try this again in the fall. Hopefully, it will work out better. We really need more participants to make this work! Deb |
I have the following leaves: Wild Irish Rose Want List: Blue Dragon |

- Posted by WoodsideTrader PA/6 (My Page) on Wed, Aug 24, 05 at 19:27
now that fall is almost here and weather will again be favorable are you still interesting in a trade? |
I am interested, and I have probably over 100 named varieties at this point and would love to trade. |
I have over 165 varieties... in fact I am not really sure how many I have right now.. I think it is pushing 200.. but I have just ordered another 58 leaves of different varieties from a violet grower, so this will push me well over 200 - 250 named varieties.. so I will have many to trade in the spring, including some babies. Mostly what I am looking for are violets that are fancy, fringed, frilly or ruffled.. If you would like a copy of my list, as it is too long to cut and paste here.. please email me. My list contains the names with descriptions, hybridizer, AVSA # (if available) and size. I would love to join in with the trade exchange for the spring of 2006. I could trade leaves or plantlets. To make it worthwhile for you and me.. no less than 20 leaves per trade.. there is no MAX. All leaves must be named varieties.. no noids! My email is firstname.lastname@example.com Thanks |

Mythmaking Manny Pacquiao is mobbed by supporters and the press after his November 24, 2013, victory over Brandon Rios in their welterweight title fight. (Siu Chiu via Reuters Pictures)
In the span of two weeks last fall, two prizefighters went to the hospital after their bouts. Francisco Leal, 26, died of a brain injury after a knockout loss to Raul Hirales on October 19. Magomed Abdusalamov, 32, remains in a medically induced coma as I write, with a blood clot near his brain, after a November 2 fight with Mike Perez. The incidents provoked a flurry of self-flagellating stories in the boxing press, from Mike Gallego's "Boxing is Still a Goddamned Tragedy" on the Gawker site Uppercutting, to Greg Bishop's A1 story in The New York Times that explored "why we cover this brutal sport."
A better question might be: Why don't we cover this brutal sport more? For amid the thousands of words about Leal and Abdusalamov, an issue that has become one of the defining sports stories of our time was conspicuously absent: the connection of repeated concussive and subconcussive hits to long-term brain damage that surfaces years later. "Writers tend to write much more often when a guy's battling for his life with a subdural hematoma than when a guy is potentially sustaining consequences from subconcussive hits," says Lou DiBella, one of boxing's biggest promoters. "I don't think the writers give a rat's ass about concussions."
Bart Barry, a reporter for the boxing-news website 15 Rounds, described it more charitably: "I think we all kind of hide from it—what, we're learning more and more, is really bad for you."
But this may be starting to change. And the implications, for boxers, boxing fans, and boxing writers, are profound. "We've all helped make a lot of myths," says The New York Times' Bishop, who also covers college football. "Somebody needs to be looking out for these guys." He acknowledged having had "trouble sleeping for a few nights" after covering a fight. "I don't get that watching football," he says.
That boxing is dangerous is hardly news. just look at Muhammad Ali, Meldrick Taylor, or countless other veterans of the sweet science, their hands shaking, their speech slurred, their gait unsteady. But the growing unease among some boxing writers is something new. It is, surely, a product of everything we're learning about subconcussive hits and their correlation with a degenerative brain disease called chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE. But it just as surely is a result of the public furor that's erupted around this issue in a contact sport with a much higher profile: football [see page 19]. "With the NFL getting into the concussions, people are writing about these things," says Michael Rosenthal, editor in chief of The Ring Magazine. "Before, people were like, 'Okay, this is part of boxing, this isn't something we're focusing on.' Now people are focusing on it."
This new focus on brain trauma and sports has made the rationalization that so many reporters and fans of boxing have leaned on for decades—that the fighters know what they're getting into—a much less sturdy device. Previously, the very nature of the problem made it easy to suppress. Unlike severe injury—a broken bone, a hard knockout, or even a death in the ring—the effects of repeated concussive and subconcussive hits are insidious, unseen, and therefore under-reported, lurking beneath the surface for years. Their cause can be attributed to other things. In other words, the problem was easy to ignore.
Now boxing faces the same dilemma—if much more acutely, given that head pounding is the point rather than an incidental aspect of the sport—that football and hockey face: The violence that makes the sport compelling has become its biggest problem. "All of the drama comes from the inherent danger," says Jimmy Tobin, who writes for the fight-news website The Cruelest Sport. "To take away one is to take away the other—it loses its poetry, it loses its metaphor, it loses its gravity, it loses everything."
As the Times' Bishop wrote in the front-page piece on November 21 about Magomed Abdusalamov, "Violence is not simply a part of boxing, it is the best part, the most visceral part, the backbone of the sport. It is what people pay to see."
For this reason alone, Ring's Rosenthal posits, boxing is "not even really a sport. It's sort of life and death, and that's what makes it so fascinating and sort of exciting. But that's what makes me feel so ghoulish—that I get pleasure out of watching it."
