I'm visiting from the quilt forum and was hoping someone could help me with a scarf project. I saw someone making a scarf with what looked like 5 dowel rods with yarn threaded thru them. She was weaving yarn around the rods and sliding it onto the yarn strings. Does anyone have instructions for something like this? I have a 10 yo neighbor who would like to make her teachers scarves for Christmas and I think she would be able to handle this one.
Thanks for your help. beverly |

could a hairpin lace loom be what you are looking for? i was at joann's and saw a sample. the scarf was loopy on the sides and somehow the yarns were connected together down the middle. sorry, i didn't pay too much attention to the details, just looked at the loom and thought, hum, looks easy. :) |
Here is a link that might be useful: hairpin lace loom
No knitcrazy, I have a hairpin lace loom. This was 5 dowels held side-by-side and you wove the yarn thru them then slid the yarn down the dowels and onto the strings. It is easy enough, just can't figure how to start or finish the thing. beverly |

I'm not sure of the name of it, but take a look at these links that use soda straws instead of dowels and see if it is similar to what you saw. It may not be the same because in this weaving, the yarn runs through the straws. |
Yes, That is how it was done. I guess I can just drill a hole in the dowel and thread the yard thru that. Thank you so much Red Confetti! beverly |

I recently received a large dump truck load of broken down leaves from our town. I would say they are about 50-60% broken down. I have added them to my new veggie bed and plan to add some nitrogen since they are not completely broken down yet.. Now I have heard that leaves change the acidity level of your garden, is this true? I had a test done before adding the leaves and it was 6.8.. will I need to add anything to keep this level? |

- Posted by dchall_san_antonio 8 San Antonio (My Page) on Thu, Mar 5, 09 at 22:35
If you are just mulching with the leaves, then you should not need to add nitrogen. I think the acidity thing is an urban myth. Yes they have tannic acid but it is so weak it barely registers as an acid. Besides the soil microbes are prepared to do what they are supposed to do with fallen leaves. Just keep them moist and they will decompose for you. I would not bury or till them. |
I agree with dchall, leaves/wood chips etc. don't tie up nitrogen if they are on the surface, only when they are incorporated into the soil. They also won't acidify your soil. Most organic matter won't. Peat moss is about the only thing I know will. Even if it did a pH of 6.8 is on the high end of ideal. Dropping to 6.5 or so wouldn't pose a problem for anything. |
- Posted by coffeehaus 7 (My Page) on Fri, Mar 6, 09 at 8:01
If you're incorporating the leaves into the garden soil you would be wise to add nitrogen. I just developed a new vegetable garden and amended the soil heavily with composted horse manure and bedding. I am spreading a two to three inch layer of shredded municipal leaves from last fall and will lightly till them into the top few inches of soil along with about five pounds of alfalfa meal or pellets per 100 square feet. The fluffed up soil and amendments will be well aerated, will warm quickly due to the incorporated air and the dark color, and the microbes can utilize the nitrogen in the alfalfa to build their populations and quickly decompose the leaves. I agree with the postings above that the pH change will be negligible. |
Research done by Dr. Abigail Maynhard at the New Haven, Conn. Agricultural Research Station has shown that adding leaves to soil does not significantly change the soil pH. Research at other Agricultural Research stations has shown the same result, no significant cahnge in soil pH as a result of adding those leaves. The only way to know if you need to add lime to your soil, and which lime (calcitic or dolomitic)as well as how much may be needed, is with a good, reliable soil test. |
- Posted by naturenut_ohio z6Ohio (My Page) on Fri, Mar 6, 09 at 20:50
Well I had already added half the pile to the garden with hopes of tilling it in in a couple weeks.. I will go to the feed mill next week to purchase some alfalfa pellets for the nitrogen fix. I have very sandy soil so was hoping it would have been ok to till the leaves in now. |
What I have found over the last 35 or so years here gardening on Lake Michigan beach sand is that tilling leaves into that sand is not a good idea since the tilling process mixes in so much air that the bacteria really go to work and digest those leaves and leave nothing, no humus, for the future. When I did till leaves into my sand there was never any humus the next year, until I started to just leave those leaves on the soil as a mulch and then I saw the humus level increase. |
- Posted by coffeehaus 7 (My Page) on Sat, Mar 7, 09 at 7:54
If your supply is sufficient to both till some in now and then use some later for mulch I would do that. The leaves and alfalfa will begin the breakdown process as the soil temperature rises. The well aerated tilled soil will warm more quickly and speed the process. In my gardening experience I have found that a single application of organic material is not a silver bullet but the first step in a process of soil building. As those leaves break down they will help to aggregate soil particles as well as make nutrients available and improve water holding capacity. A good mulch cover during the growing season will aid in slowing the loss of moisture from evaporation. |
- Posted by naturenut_ohio z6Ohio (My Page) on Sat, Mar 7, 09 at 8:06
I have more than enough to till and mulch this season, possibly enough to even add late this fall. I think I will go ahead and do both the tilling and the mulching with some nitrogen added. Thanks everyone |

Ethnic Presses
From MN150
Winning Nomination
There were many newspapers and periodicals printed in the languages of the subscribers. They kept immigrants informed of the news of the day and helped people maintain their ethnic connections. Present-day ethnic presses continue the tradition of keeping not only older immigrant groups, but also newly immigrated and native readers, informed of current news and issues. I remember clearly my grandparents with their copies of the Finnish language Minnesotan Utiset, published in New York Mills.
HistoryNews from Home "There were many newspapers printed in the languages of the subscribers," writes nominator Marlene Wisuri of Duluth. "They kept immigrants informed of the news of the day and helped people maintain ethnic connections. I remember clearly my grandparents with their copies of Minnesotan Uutiset, published in New York Mills." When you're putting down roots in an unfamiliar place, a newspaper printed in your own language, filled with news about your old and your new homes, can be a lifeline. Countless ethnic newspapers have been published throughout Minnesota over the years, with new ones established each year. Most arise from communities with a strong common bond. Take the Minnesotan Uutiset (Minnesota News), for example. By the 1890s, New York Mills was attracting large numbers of Finnish immigrants, who farmed in the summer and cut railroad ties and cordwood in the winter. Finnish-language newspapers were instrumental in drawing settlers to the area. Carl Parta and Adolph Lundquist, both experienced newspapermen, founded the Uutiset, which by the 1950s boasted the largest circulation of any Finnish American newspaper in the United States. One of Minnesota's newest ethnic newspapers is Hmong Today, published in St. Paul since 2003. In an early issue the newspaper's publisher described its goals: "As we, the Hmong, move along to the next phase of our cultural awakening, it has become crucial that we find answers to the cultural ills that linger from our past.

Hello All!
Before we retired to Colorado, I kept over 200 species or varieties of roses, and several hundred other plants in my gardens that had become dear to me. Well, I've done the crying part as the move was rather sudden and in the worst winter weather. Now, I need to start over.
I would love small rooted plants, of course, but cuttings and seeds are great too. I love all sedums, cacti/succulents, ROSES, daylilies (left some very rare ones behind and have none now), willows, bulbs, etc! Have a look at my tradelists and also at a web gallery of my recently sold jewelry work. I cut my own stones and do all of the metal work, as well. I also do repairs, so there's a thought for trade. here's the URL for a short photo gallery of my jewelery designs/creations: http://www.keepandshare.com/photo/365668/jewelry-design-portfolio
BTW, all gardening we do is entirely organic. I am a Master Herbalist so I grow (or grew) all of the herbs needed for my family, friends, landscape jobs, etc. I simply cannot allow harmful substances near any area where plants - herbs, fruit/veg, etc.- are being harvested. The herbs are grown for aesthetics, medicinal, culinary, craft (dyes, soaps, etc., and even for contact pesticides. Thank you all so much for your help in advance and for sharing your love of our plant friends with the world!

Is there a rule of thumb regarding how to budget alcohol costs in general?
I agree with this.I'm also having a "Champagne Brunch" after our morning ceremony. We have Mimosas (which I Love) and Bloody Mary's...with option for wine and beer if guests so desire...but somehow I don't think people will have it since the food will really not call for wine or beer, but we wanted to give the option, just incase.

Shoot, your brunch is invalid, and your existence is questionable. In my mind anyway.I'm pretty sure if you have a wedding brunch and don't offer mimosas, your marriage is invalid. Posted by peekaboo2011

Southeast Wildflower Seeds

Southeast Region:
Seeds selected for AL, AR, DC, FL, GA, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, Eastern TX and VA.
The Wildflowers of the Southeast
Southern wildflower gardeners have some distinct advantages over their counterparts in other parts of the country. Mostly, the Southeast is blessed with a very long growing season, making it a grand home for wildflowers. What's more, even though the south has heavy heat through summer, it does not "brown down" in the same way west Texas and the Pacific coast do once mid-summer arrives. The south stays green and in bloom, thanks to adequate rainfall through the summer and into fall.
The Southeast is a combination of several "floristic" regions. Areas such as Arkansas and the mountains of the Carolinas, Georgia and Tennessee are parts of the great Eastern Deciduous Forest which covered almost all the eastern half of the continent before European settlement. Botanists call the regions covering the coastal areas of the Southeast the Southeastern Mixed Forest. Great rivers and huge swampy areas in the coastal regions have made those areas a wonderful habitat for wildflowers.
As everyone knows, huge areas of the southeast have been cleared for agriculture, opening the forest floor to a wide variety of wildflowers, both native and naturalized. Our Proven Mixture for the Southeast takes all these characteristics into consideration, and is a balanced mixture of wild annual and perennial flower seeds that will do well for you. Depending on your exact location, certain wildflowers will do better than others, but because of the large species count in the mixtures, you should have a good show of season-long color no matter where you plant.
Because of the mild temperatures, Southeastern wildgardeners can plant in either spring or fall. Late March through April is best for spring, and early October into November is best for putting in fall plantings.
Click to Choose:
- Mixtures: 30+ choices including our most popular Southeast Wildflower Seed Mix.

Position Available for Vice-Presidency of JAC
From our official Facebook page:
One more announcement for today! We are currently looking for applicants to become the next President and Vice President of JAC! As you may or may not know, the current president, Stephen, is graduating in December, so we need a new president for the Spring 2015 semester and onwards. The main responsibilities of the president include being the primary contact for the club, re-registering the club's status as an RSO, obtaining a booth for Quad Day, filling space request forms for club meetings and events, and arranging officer meetings to plan the club's direction. In short, really important stuff!
The Vice President position has traditionally been the seat of the person who takes over the presidency once the current president graduates. We weren't able to select a Vice President last spring, which left us with the urgent matter of finding a successor to the president ASAP. However, with this position filled at all times, the transfer of power from one president to the next becomes a much smoother process.
If you're interested in making a difference at JAC and wish to apply for these positions, all you need to do is fill out the application form here:
Once it's complete, you can email the form to email@example.com or hand it in to an officer in-person by November 15th! Thank you so much for tuning into our club meetings, and best of luck to all!
Semester Showings for Fall 2014
Last week we began airing our shows for the Fall 2014 semester:
The Tatami Galaxy - A story of a boy and his university life. Or something like that.
Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun - From this Summer's season, a romantic comedy between a shoujo manga artist and his new assistant.
Gunbuster/Die Buster - The classic 6-episode mecha OVA directed by Hideaki Anno, followed by its sequel Diebuster.
Psycho Pass Extended - An extension of Psycho Pass, Season One. Season Two is coming out this Fall.
I would also like to mention that new members can suggest grab-bags on the Suggestion Thread, Facebook, and on the IRC (online client, no setup required).
If you know a show which you feel needs to be known, drop us a line on any of the three methods above!
P.S. To register on the forums, please follow this link.

Aoi Hana, an adaptation of a high school romance story.
Princess Tutu, a story about a girl attending a ballet academy in a town where stories come to life. She must occasionally transform into Princess Tutu to help heal her classmates' emotional injuries and restore a storybook prince's shattered heart.
As well as a bunch of grab bags to yet to be determined. Note that we're watching only the first 12 episodes of Kill la Kill, and the entirety of Princess Tutu, which means we'll be watching two episodes of it per week. Note also that Princess Tutu is the only show being shown in English this semester.
To help select grab bags, sign up for the forums by clicking on the "Forum" tab above, registering, sending me an email, and posting here.
Spring is Coming
Get on the forums to suggest shows. Be heard! John is starting to run out of ideas, so there had never been a better time to suggest things to him!
Fall 2013 lineup
Just thought I'd post the continuous lineup for this semester. These are the shows that we'll be showing in their entirety. We'll also have three other slots per meeting that we'll use to show a variety of things with no continuity.
We'll be showing:
Uchoten Kazoku a.k.a Eccentric Family
Black Lagoon 2nd Barrage
2013-2014 school year is GO!
So, we got our first meetings of the year coming up!

A show that was too wimpy for real German mädchen. We hope to see you all there!
Argue for your show!
We're on break. That means that now is the time to try to get your show on the schedule for next semester! If you can get to our Showings director, Eric Cristiansen, in person, talk to him; otherwise, he can be found on the forums (see the tab above) as that1guy, or sometimes on #email@example.com as T1g.
From what I know, we're especially looking for series of about 13 episodes, particularly a comedy and some sort of action/drama/detective thing, but any and all suggestions are welcomed and encouraged.
Thus Saturday, November 10, an event whose implications shall rumble throught the cosmos shall occur: The UIUCJAC and our freindly neighbor club Techfront will be joining forces and combining our meetings. At 4:00pm (16:00), we'll begin this momentous summit in the Anime club's typicall headquarters in Seibel 1404. Afte showing some science-fiction themed shows, we will then proceed to play board games after the Techfront fasion, with a contingent going to play Nerf.
We hope you'll all come to represent the club, make new friends, and have a blast!

I have a Tecumseh 3.5hp horizontal shaft engine (H35-45776Y) with breather tube (rear) terminating in the air filter box. The problem is this breather tube leaks oil and the air filter gets pretty clogged - so much that hard to start when engine hot. So I took the valve cover off to see what I could see .. I saw a little black screen about 1" x 1" x 1/8" pretty wet with oil. Behind it is a little metal plate with small holes (about the size of hole punch holes).. and about 1/4" behind this plate is another plate with one small hole going into the engine. So, wondering how to fix the issue or where the problem really is - if inside the engine compartment not sure how to fix. Also, the little plate with the holes and the plate about 1/4" behind it seem to be pressed into the engine block. Hoping someone may recognize this issue and give me a tip or two. Also, in this engine diagram I have I see a Breather tube grommet - but it isn't even on the same side of the valve cover as the breather tube so a bit confused if drawing just wrong or if I'm missing some part here. My breather tube connects into the Valve Cover and has what looks like a grommet directly on back side where tube connects.. Please help.. Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
It looks to be the same breather they've had for a while from the pic anyways. I think the drawing leaves something to be desired. My guess is that the inner breather piece is just stuck there at the gasket surface. You could have a defective breather body I suppose. Verify ref # 307 seal is in place before going further. Other causes of the breather pushing oil are :too much or wrong oil, over speed, worn/broken oil ring, air leak in the crankcase -like a missing dipstick seal (common, btw), wrong operating angle etc. Was the unit tipped perchance? |

Gear Review
Consider this purchase a mistake and going with a different camera with a different mounting system. The sound is horrible to not there. Most of the time you just get a clicking noise. The picture is sub par. My flip blows this one away. The mounting system on googles is not very stable and causes bad shakes that make the videos almost painful to watch. The picture above is ours but I would suggest avoiding this item.

Tearsheets: Editorial Photography for Folia Magazine
Folia Magazine, an independent publication for the University of Amsterdam I frequently work for, recently got redesigned. With art directors at Vruchtvlees we worked on the photography for the new cover.
They wanted to go for a clean and more graphical shot. In support of the redesign leaning heavily on typography. Vegetables on the cover are digital altered (but all were thrown in air).
Besides the cover photography, we did a lot of additional work for dedicated use on the Foliaweb website and for use in their blog posts.

Tearsheets: Editorial portrait for Folia Magazine
With the new academic year Folia Magazine, independent magazine for the University of Amsterdam, comes with a new volume. For the first two issues i worked on two editorial portraits. Both as feature and also one for the cover.
First was Emma Curvers, UvA Alumni, columnist and debuting author with Dutch novel Iedereen kan schilderen.
Than there was Sander Wirken, UvA PhD researcher and initiatior of documentary film Burden of Peace about Claudia Paz y Paz, the first woman to lead the Public Prosecutor's Office of Guatemala.
The project is still in post-production phase, but the trailer looks really promising!
See how the images were published in the layout (clik for bigger image):

Tearsheets: Editorial portraits for Rathenau Instituut
For a survey of the Rathenau Instituut i worked on the editorial portraits. The dutch institute studies and reports on developments in science and technology.
The survey itself was on shale gas and fracking. Various players in the field were interviewed and along with a study the publication was to spark debate on the issue and to inform decision makers.

Corporate Photography de Belastingdienst
For a national campaign by de Belastingdienst (Dutch Tax and Customs Administration) I did the photography for brochure U & de Belastingdienst and various online publications. The campaign was to inform on the various services, for private and commercial parties, the Dutch Tax Administration provide.
The agency went for a more documentary approach, with emphasis on people and environment. Although all settings were completely staged (location, models), i really liked to work towards a documentary touch. All images incorporates governmental visual guidelines.
The spreads and two page interviews were complemented with a more personal portrait.

I Am Gay and Muslim project round up
Last month the I Am Gay and Muslim project was involved in a lot of activities. Chris visits various international film festivals for the documentary and the photo series is on display in two exhibitions.
I Am Gay and Muslim documentary Banned in Kyrgyzstan
The film documentary makes its way well through the festival circuit. After festival screenings in South Africa, Italy, USA and Portugal, Chris went to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan where the film was programmed as closing film at the Bir Duino film festival.
What should have been the first screening in an Islamic country turned out otherwise. The film got banned by the Prosecutor General's office after the Kyrgyz State Committee on Religious Affairs determined it to be "extremist," "offensive to Muslims," and "inciting interreligious hatred".

Exhibition Mooiman Gallery
On October 6th there was the opening of the Gay & Muslim Exhibition at Mooiman Gallery, Groningen. This gay and Muslim themed exhibition features the photo series (and film) next to the works of Dutch photographer Diana Blok and Secret Garden Foundation.
The combination of our series and the series See Through Us by Diana Blok (portraits and stories of gay women/men and transsexuals in Turkey) works very well and i am thrilled because i was a fan of this series from the start.

I Am Gay and Muslim photo series at Pride Photo Award 2012
At last, but not least, there was the Pride Photo Award 2012, for which the I Am Gay and Muslim project was rewarded with a special mention. The Pride Photo Awards focuses on LGBT-issues and gathers a lot of attention on the subject with a exhibition in the Oude Kerk and huge displays throughout the city (on no less than seven locations!).
Besides exhibition of winners, there was also a side-programme to bring up discussion like Meet & Greets with the makers and the incorporation of the PPA in other events like De Donkere Kamer.
Congrats to all winners, who made this year's PPA one of surprisingly diversity!

They laugh. And when the massive school clock strikes 2:45, the doors bust open and the still, quiet air is punctured by noise. So many of the kids look so young and tiny. Others look like they're in their twenties. The girls appear confident in their chunky high-heeled boots, cute skirts and jeans. The boys are all low-slung pants and attitude.
Once Joy and Danielle leave, Dwon Buskey takes their place on the bench. The senior plans to go home, do some schoolwork, then go to his construction job. Two guys and a girl come up to him, wondering who his benchmate is. A reporter? "Don't you have to have permission to talk to students?" one asks. Responsible, these kids. Me, not so much. I just shrug. "She's smooth," Dwon says. "Looks like one of us just sitting here."
Dwon and his friends start discussing school trends. "We got a group of twins here this year. There go two of them," Dwon says, nodding toward two girls dressed in matching pink velour pants and black quilted jackets. And then there are the "buttons" a lot of the girls are wearing -- including the girl at the bench. They point to her sparkly belly-button ring. "Only Jezebels wear those," says the tallest of the three boys. She asks what a Jezebel is. He doesn't answer, but his mocking laughter tells her it's not good. "These girls are bad. They be having sex right after school," he says. Boys.
Most of the kids do have sex on the brain. Maybe it's the weird weather: Sixty-degree days in January are enough to confuse the birds and bees into thinking it's spring.
Inside East, a broad range of kids mix in the classrooms and in the hallways. But out here, they segregate themselves. Spanish-speaking students flock together; preppie blond girls walk side by side; black boys laugh and mock-fight in one circle; black girls dance and pay the boys no mind; a duo of classic band nerds pass by. All of them talk on cell phones.
Three girls who've taken Dwon's place talk about what the other girls are wearing. When the security guard walks by, they swap stories about him. And when a teacher passes and says hello, they say hi back, all sweet. But as soon as he's out of earshot, they rip on him, too. Girls.
By 3:30, most of the kids have been picked up by parents or gotten rides from friends. Almost as quickly as the noise came, it goes away. All is quiet outside East High. Until tomorrow. -- Julie Jargon
3:15 p.m.: Caribbean Marketplace,
2936 East Colfax
Raymond James was born in Trinidad, a small island at the southern edge of the Caribbean, and he knows most of the Tobagonians, Jamaicans, Bahamians and Bermudans who live in his adopted town of Denver, where he moved nine years ago to train as a professional marathon runner.
"Give me one hand, I can point to them all," says James in a thick patois, gold chains hanging from his dark, slender neck. "Everyone knows everyone. It's very, very small community."
Caribbean Marketplace, his tiny shop next door to the Caribbean Bakery, is one of the few formal enclaves for the community. The store's inventory is small and specific: James sells banners for South American and British cricket teams; incense and oils from Africa; custom-made T-shirts emblazoned with reggae symbols and images of Bob Marley. Soca and dancehall music are always on the stereo, token reminders of a faraway place.
"It does get lonely anytime you're in a place that's far away from your real home," James says. "It's always good to have a big family. That's very important in an island culture. So, that's part of why I have the shop. So other people who are here can have some memories of home, feel some feeling of their family."
James hasn't seen his mother in four years; the trip to Trinidad is so long and expensive, it's impossible to go very often. Instead, he connects to home through reggae.
"In the summer, I leave the door open so people who walk by can hear the music," he says. "The Caucasian people, they hear it and come in, too. Everyone likes it. It's a good vibe. It makes you think of the islands and a happy time." -- Bond
3:45 p.m.: Frontier Club,
18881 East Colfax
The name of the joint implies "country." But a flip through the Frontier's jukebox yields only a handful of classic country songs, buried amid No Doubt, Train and other twang-free CDs.
At the bar, though, the stuff of country songs is flowing freely. "It's my sixtieth birthday, " says Earl, a short, droopy-eyed man. It sounds like a line from a veteran barfly who has perfected the art of scoring free drinks. "I'm drunk," he notes.
Earl says he's also an ex-Navy SEAL, ex-POW, ex-soldier in Vietnam. "I write songs," he says. "Country, old-time rock and roll." How many you got? "A hundred and twelve." He attempts to sing his favorite original, "Golden Years," which paints a bleak picture far removed from the title's usual associations. He stumbles through the song's chorus, blowing the words.

Awww, Disney cartoon characters look so innocent and cute, but actually they love sex as much as we do. It is true, and it all on Cartoon Valley. This cute website brings a lot of super hot videos and pictures of horny naked 3D big breasted babes and horny hung dudes who are fucking them hard in all positions. It is interesting that on this website, like on many other sites, babes always cheat on their hubbies. Marge Simpson sucks Flanders' long fat pecker while Homer punches him in the face, the Disney princesses making out with other girls and licking their shaved orgasmic virtual pussies, Peter Griffin from the Family Guy fucking some sluts in the kinky gangbang...
That is only one small part of what Cartoon Valley has to offer. Videos are in high quality and it is all made for your pleasure. Lately, these cartoon sites are getting more and more popular because there is no limit in what they can provide to horny guys. The creators of this website damn sure thought a lot about the content and they made amazing videos and really cool pictures which will make your schlong hard really fast.

Oh my goodness! I have just found your blog and have been reading the suggestions for folks with disk issues. What a terrific blog! Kudos to you! Hubby has 10 bulging disks up and down his spine. He is 6 feet and 155 lbs., I'm 5 feet 1 in... 134 lbs...We have a very old king size sealy posturepedic... and it's time to replace it. Hubby wakes up in pain and does not get much sleep at night.. tosses and turns. He is a chef and on his feet all day and needs a good night's rest, which he is not getting right now. I'm fine.. no real sleep issues.. but I do like a firmer bed (I put a board under my side of the bed between the mattress and boxspring and find the depression on my side is less than on hubby's). We have a memory foam 3 inch topper on the bed. Just recently we went to a mattress store and were told that the ONLY bed we should buy is surprise surprise the high end Tempur-Pedic.. at a whopping 4,500! Very high pressure sales pitch.. and we did not bite.. I am so glad that I found your blog... Do you think the S & F Roseau (Sears) would be a good bet for hubby's back issues? Thank you so much for your excellent, excellent blog and honesty. It's greatly appreciated!
Hi Lisa. Good for you. The Roseau is a very nice mattress. The Grenoble is firmer and you do have a topper you can use. Bulging discs be come herniated as the condition worsens. Considering he's on his feet all day, your husband may benefit greatly from using an inversion table...but you'll want to check with your doctor or chiroprctor first. The firmer Grenoble will do a better job of holding those discs in place and help slow the process of his condition. Of course, it isn't as comfy as the Roseau. The interior support is the same, the top padding is what changes the feel.

Technic Flatbed Truck and Bucket Truck now listed.
Posted by Grahame,The Technic Flatbed Truck 8109 and the Technic Bucket Truck 8071 are now listed on shop.lego.com for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. No doubt, other countries will soon be listed - fingers crossed!
3 comments on this article
It looks like a beast! I'll take one!
Bucket truck showed up on tru.com - US$49.99
I want these two to show up in the UK soon... but I want the Unimog more. I guess the UK got the sets a whole month early last year, so I suppose I can wait.
Any information as to when we'll see the Creator Cool Cruiser? It looks a pretty solid set, but also one which has been almost completely overlooked and overshadowed by the Lighthouse.

St Mirren 1-2 Dundee
Dundee United returned to winning ways in the Scottish Premiership with a 3-1 victory over struggling Motherwell at Tannadice.
A second-half brace from midfielder Charlie Telfer allied to defender Jaroslaw Fojut's header proved enough for Jackie McNamara's men, despite Simon Ramsden's goal on 79 minutes for Ian Baraclough's third-bottom side.
This was Well's fifth straight league defeat, during which they have conceded 17 goals, while United stayed fourth in the table.
Motherwell had a penalty claim...

Found this 3-4 inch plant in my flower bed. Is it something or just a weed? |
Image link: Red stem plant? (34 k)
Follow-Up Postings:
could it be Pokeweed? |
Yea...Pokeweed seedlings don't generally have that appearance. |
- Posted by genie_wilde 10 (My Page) on Wed, Aug 22, 07 at 0:51
It does look like a red-stemmed amaranthus seedling to me, but the color in the pic is kind of washed out, so it's hard to tell for sure. If it's a red-stemmed amaranthus, it will soon develop a feathery read cluster of blossoms, very similar to a celosia. (It's in the same family.) |
It does resemble a Celosia, have you had them growing in or near your garden before? Perhaps a neighbor's garden. They can reseed from year to year. HTH Chris |
I have never planted any in my beds. Not sure about the neighbors? |
An Alternanthera maybe |
Just thought I would let you know it is a Celosia. It started growing a red fizzy bloom. |
yes is celiosa!!! |

Top 10 Train Trips
Napa Valley Wine Train, California
Since getting behind the wheel after multiple wine tastings is a risk we don't advise oenophiles to take, we propose the Napa Valley Wine Train (www.winetrain.com), departing daily from downtown Napa for 3- to 4-hour day trips through the celebrated wine region's rolling countryside, as a delightful, DUI-free alternative. Savor a gourmet lunch in one of its lavishly restored Pullman dining cars, dating from 1915 to 1917, before hotfooting it to the wine tasting car, where a choice of 100 wines compensates for the fact that you can't disembark at the wineries you fancy along the route – though two train trip packages do include stops at wineries, one at Grgich Hills (www.grgich.com) and the other at Domaine Chandon (www.chandon.com). Or, book a table in the line's newest railcar, the Silverado, and experience the Valley's idyllic climate firsthand via large sliding windows. After the 36-mile round-trip voyage from historic Napa to the quaint village of St. Helena, sober up at the train station with afternoon tea and shopping.
For more trip-planning information, see our Napa Valley Travel Guide.

The Robo Chair is a stackable seat made of recycled P.E.T. acrylic felt, metal and plywood. It is easy to assemble and disassemble and was inspired by the Bjork video for the song 'All is Full of Love.'
The idea of a robot becoming a living being excited the designers and so they applied this principle to the Robo Chair. Emphasizing the limbs of the seat in a sleek, robotic fashion, the Robo Chair is able to maintain a balance between modernity and the environment.

I was wondering if anyone knew if this place was still open to the public? The botanical gardens in Wausau are sponsoring a bus trip to Eau Claire in June so we're looking for some fun places to visit. Two for sure are Klinger Farms and Witt's Hosta Garden but thought we might have time for a third. |

I don't know their current status but here is a link to their web site--there is both an email & phone # on the contact page so give that a try. |

Thanks, Wirosarian! I'll give them a call. That looks like a perfect place for our picnic lunch that day. |

I talked to Deb, one of the owners the other day and they are trying to sell the property but if they don't they will be open for the season. Deb was very nice and we have permission to picnic there. Hopefully, if they do sell, someone else will be interested in keeping it open to the public too. I'm always amazed at how generous garden people are. |
This sounds like a really fun trip. I went to the RWMonk website http://home.rwmonkgardens.org/ and read about it. They are also having a luncheon on March 19th where Richard Witt (hostas) from Witt's gardens and Nate Bremer from Solaris Farms (daylilies) will be speaking. You can sign up for that on the website.

In the Section Palaeontology we analyze the evolution of ecosystems on long temporal scales. We assess the environmental factors governing the waxing and waning of communities and entire ecosystems in earth history. Our goal is to predict the fate of marine ecosystems under current climate change. We combine geological field work with modern analytical methods and statistical analyses using large databases of ancient life.
We are editor of Facies

"I had my opinions about elements of the show — how my personal life was made public on so many levels. But, the show itself never did anything to me. At the end of the day, I think [Tiny] calculated her pros and cons and came to the conclusion it was time for her to move on."
"I, myself, I am not interested in reality television; just me, myself, speaking. I would love to continue to support [Tiny] in whatever she decides to do. I just don't think there is a place for me in that world." (BET.COM)
"I resented the fact that she became so famous and so many people loved her, because I just didn't get it, and I did not get her. But these days grandmothers are much younger, and much busier. Back in the day, there were grandmothers who would be there for you, give you counsel, and I think that's what she represents to a lot of people."
"Now I'm at a place where as long as the audience love to see it, I'll do it. But the minute they stop coming – that old broad, she's dead. She's outta here. She is gonna die a quick death." (Contact Music)

Inside a cavernous factory space at Aker Yards, the din of construction is deafening. Underneath a latticework of girders, the yellow glare of sodium light falls on acres of massive, reddish-brown, angular shapes. This raw material--steel sheets 39 ft. long and up to an inch thick--is being welded together to form the basic building blocks of the Oasis. With its robotic transporters and welding stations, the facility is extremely high-tech. Yet many of the techniques used here would be familiar to the ironworkers who laid down the Lusitania in 1904. Aker vice president Tom Degerman oversees the project, and as he strides across the shop floor, a clanging sound booms from inside a rust-colored section of half-completed hull. "He's adjusting the bulkhead," Degerman explains. Translation: A worker is whaling on a hunk of steel with a sledgehammer.
Constructing a ship on this scale requires a combination of brute force and advanced engineering. For hundreds of years, large vessels were built from the bottom up, with shipbuilders striking the keel and erecting the hull before adding each deck, one level at a time. Today's big builds are more efficient, but also more complicated. Components are fabricated and assembled separately, then joined one to another like so many giant Lego blocks.
The process begins at the shipyard's railhead, where steel arrives directly from the foundry. Welding machines autonomously combine the metal sheets into larger slabs that slide through a series of workstations on an 80-ft.-wide conveyor belt. Braces and other structural components are welded onto the slabs until the resulting block weighs as much as 66 tons. When it's ready, the block is hoisted and welded into a stack with three other blocks to make a "grand block" that can be the size of an 8000-sq.-ft. apartment building, complete with cables, ducts and wiring. Most of these grand blocks are assembled in Turku, with the rest put together in Germany and Lithuania.
