At the moment I am going through the second two volumes of N.T. Wright's Christian Origins and the Question of God series. Part of what I'm doing in reading the books is giving a review and summary of each chapter of both books. I thought I might as well contribute them here, so occasionally over the next few months I'll continue to post chapter-by-chapter sections reviewing Wright's corpus. Here is my overview of the first chapter.
Wright sets out, first of all to define the aim and methodology of his study of the historical person of Jesus. He notes at the outset (p. 4) that the very attempt to write an account of the person of Jesus has become a task which more and more theologians are hesitant to do, instead opting to discuss the shape of the early Christian community. Wright argues, however that a portrait of Jesus in his historical context is possible, and may very well be a point of reunion and convergence between critical historical study and theology. He notes that there are at least two "jigsaws" which need to be fitted together in putting forth such a historical study of Jesus.
The first jigsaw is a "historical one" (p. 5). Wright notes that what we have to say about Jesus from a historical point of view will be definitively shaped by what we have to say about "the first century as a whole" (p. 5). The relationship between pre-Christian Judaism, John the Baptist, Jesus, the earliest church, Paul, and the other New Testament writings are all part of the "jigsaw" which must be carefully fitted together in such a way as for us to have an accurate or at least plausible understanding of the historical person of Jesus.
In laying out this "jigsaw", Wright explores and critiques Schweitzer and Bultmann for their particularly different ways of failing to properly place Jesus in his Jewish context. Bultmann ended up making Jesus into nothing more than a "preacher of existentialist decision" (p. 7), something that would have been utterly unintelligible in the first century. Schweitzer, likewise, though attempting to place Jesus in his historical context more thoroughly ends up saying virtually the same types of things about Jesus in terms of his relevance for today through a problematic understanding of "Jewish apocalyptic eschatology."
This issue – that of the relevance of Jesus for today – is the "second jigsaw" which Wright is seeking to address in his work. Wright argues that "rigorous faith" and "rigorous history" belong together and can be a source of mutual enrichment, rather than mutual antagonism (p. 8). It is with that central presupposition in mind that Wright puts forth his analogy that guides the argument of the book, that of the parable of the prodigal son. The prodigal (critical historical study) demands his inheritance, scorning his father and goes into the far country in defiance while his older brother (orthodox belief) stays home, hurt and angry. However, Wright appeals to "the older brother" that, should the prodigal come home, he should be welcomed back rather than excoriated for his foolish and antagonistic youth. It is on this basis that Wright moves forward with his exploration of the previous two "quests" for the historical Jesus, and the ways in which they have been predatory on orthodox Christian faith, and seeks to move beyond them to a portrait of Jesus that is at once more historically situated in first century Judaism, and more theologically potent on the very basis of that historicity.

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)The Candy Police: Cruel Woman to Hand out "Fat Letters" to Moderately Obese Children on Halloween!
By Wendy RN., BA
October 30th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) A very misguided and cruel woman in Fargo, North Dakota plans to hand out "Fat Letters" to children trick or treating that she feels are "moderately obese". Reading about this completely stunned me, I cannot believe that anyone would be so mean to a child. LOS ANGELES, CA (Rise Above Health Blog) - 'Cheryl' of Fargo, N.D., called in to a local radio station to describe her letter, which reads, 'Your child is, in my opinion, moderately obese and should not be consuming sugar and treats.' She went on to tell interviewers that she wants parents to know that they are being irresponsible for allowing their fat children to go out trick or treating for free candy.[media id="500"] As a health care professional, I have mixed feelings about all of the "loot" our children collect and eat on Halloween, but the action of this woman has gone to far. Who does she think she is? If she really has a conscience regarding candy and health, why doesn't she give all the children something other than candy like boxes of raisins or dental floss? By singling out the children who she deems "moderately obese" and giving them a letter for their parents, she could scar them for life. Imagine how you would feel at a vulnerable age, your self-esteem may never recover. I am wondering what she plans to give to the children who she deems are "obese"? We have a health crisis in America and that includes our children. We are fatter than any other generation; in fact childhood obesity has nearly tripled since the early 1970's. Our children now have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, depression and obesity in alarming numbers. I agree that we are a community that needs to help one another, but being cruel to children is not the correct way to go about it.

Heart Cake Pops
Wednesday, 1 February 2012
It's almost Valentine's Day and I spent last weekend baking up a storm. These cake pops, plus heart shaped sugar cookies and some special flourless cupcakes with pink frosting are all coming your way.
Each time I make cake pops, I find more ways to make them more easily and quickly (I'll have to compile all my tips into a post soon). These heart shape cake pops are even easier to make than they seem. After I combined the cake and frosting together, I pushed it flat into the bottom of a casserole dish. Then I just used cookie cutter to cut the cake pops into hearts (see photo in the recipe below).
So easy and much faster than shaping each heart by hand!
Then you can either push the lollipop sticks in to make them standing up (above) or flat on a dish (below). I like making them like the ones below because you don't need anything to hold them up.
Are you making anything special for Valentine's Day?

(Good for our game)
Our colleagues in southern Northern Virginia, the Potomac Nationals, recently announced plans for a new ballpark off I-95 in Woodbridge. This development has been a very, very long time coming and can only be positive for the baseball business of our region.
It's interesting to note – to borrow from living legend Vin Scully (and everyone who's ever impersonated him) – that the solidification of the P-Nats in Prince William means that Loudoun's only option for professional baseball is an independent (non-affiliated) club, like your Hounds will be in the esteemed Atlantic League.
Why? Good question. Has to do with territorial rights. For an affiliated team to call Loudoun home, it must obtain permission from the Washington Nationals and Baltimore Orioles of MLB, not to mention a couple (2) minor league clubs. Not bloody likely.
Regardless, it's long-awaited positive news for our friends down there some 35 traffic-clogged miles to our south, and we heartily commend them on their achievement.

Found this interesting video about the latest use for QR Codes on headstones in cemeteries. The QR Codes link to a page (similar to a Facebook page) about the deceased person, thus creating 'living headstones'. Is this the future of memorialisation, or is social media for the deceased just taking it one step too far?

Design across time: MIFF60 Exhibition at State of Design
Towards the end of the State of Design festival, Jeremy and I wandered into the city for some lunchtime inspiration.
The exhibition we chose to view was 'MIFF60: The Graphic Art of the Melbourne International Film Festival'. Whilst a very small exhibition, it was a comprehensive array of design collateral across the 60 years that MIFF has been running. What made this exhibition unique was seeing all these items as a collection, given that they were designed by different designers, studios and agencies over the years.
In the beginning, each year appeared to be a separate entity with a different design treatment each year. With the 1990s and 2000s came a marked difference with a more definite brand identity being developed and rolled out and a greater emphasis on sponsor logo inclusion. This also coincided with a change in the early 2000s when MIFF began using advertising agencies – the programmes became more magazine-like and began to heavily utilise imagery from the films rather than simply developing a branded graphic treatment.
Seeing designs from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s gave an insight into the very different design trends of those era. As the State of Design website put it:
"… from the flat geometric designs of the Saul Bass inspired 1960s, through the psychedelic excursions of the 70s and the neo-pop surrealism of the 80s."
It was very interesting to see how the brand and collateral has evolved over time and the varying approaches used by the different designers. Seeing a complete collection such as this was fascinating, not just in terms of the MIFF brand, but also in terms of the changing trends evident in design.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Nell, Margo Judith email@example.com URN etd-08062008-081742 Document Title The anti-tumour properties of novel gold compounds Degree MSc Department Pharmacology Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof C E Medlen Supervisor Keywords
- human cervical carcinoma cells
- tumour cells
- anti-tumour properties
Date 2008-04-23 Availability unrestricted Abstract Since the introduction of Auranofin in 1985 there has been no new clinically approved gold containing drugs introduced. Although promising results were achieved with a gold(I) phosphine complex [Au(dppe) 2]Cl (Hoke et al., 1991; Mckeage et al., 2002), this compound was never entered into clinical trials due to its toxicity to normal tissue such as the liver and heart (Smith et al.,1989).Six novel derivatives of [Au(dppe) 2]Cl were developed and synthesized to identify possible new candidates with improved tumour specificity compared to [Au(dppe) 2]Cl and cisplatin. Human cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa) were used for an initial toxicity screening. IC50's obtained for [Au(dppe) 2]Cl and cisplatin were 0.661 and 0.710 µM respectively. Three mixed novel derivatives (MM4, MM5 and MM6) displayed IC50's ranging between 0.026 and 0.103 µM. These compounds were then selected to be tested further for selectivity and cytotoxicity on various malignant and normal cell lines. MM4 showed selectivity for ovarian, prostate, cervical and breast cancer cells, while MM5 was the most effective against ovarian, colon, prostate, cervical and breast cancer cells. MM6 was most active against ovarian, colon, prostate, cervical and breast cancer cells. The experimental compounds had much higher IC50's when tested on the normal cells, which indicates selectivity for cancer cells.
The octanol/water partition coefficient (lipophilicity) of all the experimental compounds was measured to determine the lipophilicity of the compounds. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl was found to be strongly lipophilic; while the novel compounds had varying degrees of lipo- and hydrophilicity. The octanol/water partition coefficient (lipophilicity) was also used to establish whether there is a correlation between the lipophilicity, IC50 and tumour specificity. In this study no correlation was found between these parameters.
[Au(dppe) 2]Cl is known to have an effect on the mitochondrial membrane potential of cells. MM4, MM5, MM6 and cisplatin were compared to [Au(dppe) 2]Cl for effects on mitochondrial membrane potential. PHA stimulated human lymphocytes and a human undifferentiated leukemia T-cell line (Jurkat cells) were used in these experiments. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl, MM4, MM5 and MM6 depolarized the mitochondrial membranes of PHA stimulated lymphocytes significantly, while only [Au(dppe) 2]Cl depolarized the mitochondrial membranes of the Jurkat cells significantly, indicating that a different mechanism of action might be operational.
MM4, MM5, MM6 and cisplatin were compared to [Au(dppe) 2]Cl for effects on plasma membrane potential. PHA stimulated human lymphocytes and Jurkat cells were used in these experiments. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl and MM6 depolarized the plasma membranes of both PHA stimulated lymphocytes and the Jurkat cells significantly.
In order to determine whether the depolarization of mitochondrial and plasma membranes was a precursor for apoptosis, experiments were done to determine whether MM4, MM5 and MM6 induce apoptosis in Jurkat cells. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl and cisplatin were added for comparison. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl, cisplatin, MM4 and MM6 did induce apoptosis in Jurkat cells, but MM5 did not.
The effect of [Au(dppe) 2]Cl, cisplatin, MM4, MM5 and MM6 on the cell cycle of Jurkat cells was determined to establish whether the experimental compounds altered this process. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl, MM4, MM5 and MM6 arrested the cell cycle in the G1 phase and cisplatin did so in the S phase.
In order to determine whether the inhibition of cell growth and partition coefficient of the experimental compounds is related to the uptake of the drug, radio labeled drug uptake experiments were carried out with 198Au labeled [Au(dppe) 2]Cl, MM5 and MM6. Two different types of ovarian cancer cells were used for these studies. One cell line was sensitive to cisplatin (A2780) and the other was resistant to cisplatin (A2780 cis). Results obtained from these experiments showed that the uptake of these experimental compounds was dependent on their octanol/water partition coefficient. However, the inhibition of cell growth did not correlate with the uptake of these compounds by the cells that were tested.
To confirm the octanol/water partition coefficient and drug uptake results, 198Au labelled [Au(dppe) 2]Cl, MM5 and MM6 were testedin vivo for bio distribution in rats. [Au(dppe) 2]Cl (lipophilic) had higher bio distribution compared to MM5 and MM6 (hydrophilic).
The experimental compounds show low IC50's combined with increased tumour specificity. This indicates that these compounds have great potential to target tumour cells selectively and should be investigated further as anti-cancer agents.

HoopsHype Rich Paul rumors
Adrian Wojnarowski: LeBron James, Dan Gilbert, Rich Paul and Maverick Carter met for 4 hours in Miami last week and talked through it all, Gilbert tells Yahoo. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Adrian Wojnarowski: LeBron James and agent meeting w/ Heat will include Pat Riley and assistant GM Andy Ellsburg, the salary cap expert, source tells Yahoo. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Tommy Beer: Stephen A Smith, on ESPN radio, says Lebron's camp has told him: "We have not made a choice yet, no matter what anybody else says... We have an open mind going into tonight's meeting with Riley" Twitter @TommyBeer
Chris Broussard: Sources: Today's meeting will consist of Pat Riley, LeBron James and Rich Paul, James's agent. No one else. Twitter @Chris_Broussard
Chris Haynes: Free agent LeBron James along with his agent Rich Paul will meet face-to-face with the Miami Heat today at 3pm (PST), league source says. Twitter @ChrisBHaynes
Chris Broussard: Anyone who knows LeBron well knows his decision will be made by him alone, not by Rich Paul, Maverick Carter or Pat Riley... Twitter @Chris_Broussard
Several NBA executives that are in Orlando for Summer League that tried to get an audience with James said frankly that they did not believe there was a window to obtain James away from Miami and that all the meetings and posturing from James' side was more about agent Rich Paul using his uncertainty to get meetings for his other clients including restricted free agent Eric Bledsoe. Basketball Insiders
Rich Paul, the president of Klutch Sports, has been funneling belief into the organization that the Cavaliers are in strong position to lure James from the Miami Heat, sources told Yahoo Sports. For years, Paul has confided to people that bringing back James to Cleveland has been something of a mission for him, and he's encouraging Cavaliers officials to offer no restraint in the recruitment of James, sources said. Yahoo! Sports
LeBron James and his agent, Rich Paul, plan on meeting with Miami Heat president Pat Riley in person early this week, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The person spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the talks. James is a free agent, and the revelation that he will be sitting down with Riley soon is surely comforting to Heat fans who have every reason to wonder if he may be heading elsewhere soon. USA Today Sports

Joe Kotoch: According to one exec whose team has met with LeBron's agent seems like he's waiting Heat to make a move & they can't. Twitter @Probballdraft
Rich Paul, the agent for James, invited three teams – Cleveland, Dallas and Phoenix – to the offices of his Klutch Sports headquarters to listen to pitches. The meetings took place on Wednesday and Thursday, sources told Yahoo Sports. Phoenix met on Wednesday and Cavaliers officials met on Thursday with Paul. Yahoo! Sports

POSTED: Friday, March 29, 2013 - 2:25pm
UPDATED: Saturday, March 30, 2013 - 9:26am
EDINBURG, TX (KVEO NEWS CENTER 23) — The University of Texas-Pan American is celebrating the opening of a new Mexican American Studies Center that administrators say marked a historic day at UTPA and could potentially serve as a national model. Here's Sandra Quintanilla with this week's News Center 23 report.
This ribbon cutting celebration marked an historic day at The University of Texas-Pan American. University administrators, faculty, students, and staff gathered to celebrate the unveiling of UTPA's new center for the Mexican American Studies Program. Organizers say the opening of the facility is especially significant because they've been trying for a long time to find a home and overall support for the program. Its director and assistant professor of Spanish Dr. Stephanie Alvarez credited UT Pan AM's President Robert Nelsen and other top officials for making this opportunity happen.
Dr. Stephanie Alvarez, MAS Program Director, "Mexican American Studies has been present at UTPA for well over 30 years, but really never got going. It didn't get the support and attention needed but with the support of Dr. Nelsen and the Provost Havidan Rodriguez we're able to open an actual physical space for the center and the academic program. It's very important because we need that space to support our students and to support our faculty."
The center is housed in the College of Education Complex and will primarily be used as a meeting place for students and faculty to be able to collaborate on research projects, community outreach programs and other assignments. UTPA officials point out the new facility is also important for the Rio Grande Valley.
Dr. Robert Nelsen, UTPA President, "It's an opportunity to celebrate our culture in the Valley. It's an opportunity to educate our students about that culture. It's an opportunity for us to maximize our presence here on the border. We have to be aware of where we are, who we are and what we are and the Mexican American Studies Program does precisely that for our students, for our faculty for our staff and for the public as well."
The center's grand opening took place during the National Association for Chicana and Chicano Studies Tejas 2013 Conference held on campus. The event brought in prominent scholars, artists and activists from across the state and nation to discuss ethnic issues, the state of Mexican American studies in Texas, community-based activism and literature and art.
Havidan Rodriguez, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, "This is really an exciting conference because it recognizes the work that we're doing here at UT Pan American. It highlights our contributions and it brings top scholarships from throughout the country including from Texas and from UT Pan American to highlight very, very important issues that are particularly important for the study of Chicano and Chicana studies here at UT Pan American and throughout the country."
I'm Sandra Quintanilla reporting for UTPA and News Center 23.

But this excuse rings false to Leo. "Readers don't give a crap about columnists' or reporters' problems," he maintains. "The old journalistic bromide goes, ŒShow, don't tell.' Well, Œbutt-ugly' was all tell, and his show was minimal and erroneous."
An anonymous correspondent raised many of these issues in a January 24 e-mail addressed to Temple and sent separately to me. Nevertheless, Temple says he didn't learn of questions about Johnson's column until February 2, when he received an e-mail on the topic from Rocky media columnist Dave Kopel. The correction followed the next day.
Temple, who has a policy against divulging personnel matters, won't say what punishment Johnson received. If the correction was his sole reprimand, it raises important questions -- like, for example, "Does Johnson have nude photos of Rocky executives?" Whatever the truth, Temple continues to laud the columnist for his work in general. "Bill has reported from war zones twice, and the military has always felt great confidence in his ability to accurately portray their experiences," he points out. "He's fully capable of the highest level of journalism."
That may be so. But in these instances, he fell waaaay short.
Kobe redux: Back in 2004, filmmaker Brian Malone created a surprisingly poignant portrait of a figure known principally to locals: Blinky the Clown. For his latest project, however, he takes on universally recognized subjects. Breaking News, which debuts at 6:30 p.m. Friday, February 17, as part of the Boulder International Film Festival (visit www.biff1.com for details), examines today's media through the prism of court cases involving Kobe Bryant and Michael Jackson. Even so, Malone feels the film "isn't only about Kobe or Michael or even celebrity trials. It's about how the forces of profit and big corporate broadcasters have contributed to the erosion of good journalism."
During Malone's visit to this year's Sundance Film Festival, Films Transit, a Montreal firm, purchased Breaking News's broadcasting rights for everywhere other than the United States. He expects an hour-long version of his opus to screen in as many as forty countries by year's end, and folks worldwide will almost certainly adore it, since it makes lots of American media types look terrible.
Clearly, Malone has a gift for working with clowns.

That's the trouble with theory; real life gets in the way.
I rarely get a double; usually take a trade off when I make 15 to 20%. I plan to take stops at around 8% but emotions do get in the way. Something about taking a loss I haven't quite overcome. This year I kept a couple way to long and had one loss in excess of 50%.
Overall still came out ahead.

My crocus have started to bloom, not that I have many of them. I really need to plant more this fall. Plus the EARLY SENSATION daffs started blooming in mid February and today even a batch of the MARIA daffodils have come open. |

Hiya Rita! Our Oklahoma weathermen are saying that "Spring has Sprung". Even though we had a mild, short winter, I am so happy it's over! Are the orange trumpeted Daffs the Maria? So pretty! I have several varieties of Daffodils blooming. Also the old-fashioned yellow Jonquils & Grape Hyacinths, and soon the Tulips will be blooming. Yeah! Last year I planted 'Professor Einstein' Daffodils. They are short, but the blooms are fairly big, but have pug faces. So cute! They have fat, rounded white petals and a burnt orange trumpet that is very ruffled. They are not blooming yet. They bloomed later last year too. BTW, My new Daylilies are looking really good! ;) Can't wait! ~Annie |
- Posted by newyorkrita z6b/7a LI NY (My Page) on Sat, Mar 10, 12 at 13:22
Hi Annie! Yes, the orange trumpet daffs are the MARIA daffs. I just love the color combo on those MARIAs. Love the orange trumpets. The blooms really aren't that big but they are really cheerful. In fact I like them so much that while I have those pictured in the front yard, I also planted another batch of them in the back yard last fall. They are just coming up now. Besides the MARIA daffs I have other varieties such as EARLY SENSATION, YORK MINISTER, ROULETTE, MERLIN, COPPER QUEEN, MARTINETTE, plus a Scheepers mixed long trumpet mix and others. I do really love daffodils. My daylilies are barely even waking up yet so its really going to be a long wait till bloom season. Fortunately there are lots of other plants and shrubs here that will bloom before then, including iris and roses. |

Ahhhh Rita, so pretty, a breath of spring. I have lots of species crocus blooming in the driveway border but it'll be a couple of weeks before the bigger flowered ones bloom. The winter jasmine, snowdrops and the few spring snowflakes I have are on the way out but the hellebores are doing their thing. The little miniature Daffs I have are starting to show buds, I've gone away from the bigger ones but love the little guys and, on a warm day the scent of violets fills the air, as rambunctious as they are I'll never be without them. I've been trying to grow english bluebells from seed, finally it looks like they've made it, maybe even see some flowers this year. It's still a bit too wet to do much digging, but at least I can get some cleanup done. Annette |

Rita, I have Early Sensation Daffs too. We didn't have them in California, so when we moved back here (the first time), I got to see Spring flowering bulbs for the first time and fell in love with Daffodils right away. I have the King Alfred - my first to buy. Not sure what the other two daffodils are. Bought them at Wally World, and as usual, not named. But they are lovely and troopers. Bloom for me every year. They are white with soft yellow trumpets and deep yellow with yellow trumpets. Here is a nice Poem by William Wordsworth: "Daffodils" (1804) I WANDER'D lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the Milky Way, They stretch'd in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, By William Wordsworth (1770-1850). ~Annie |

Just lovely! We can grow daffs as an annual only. And I have never seen crocus. |
- Posted by newyorkrita z6b/7a LI NY (My Page) on Sun, Mar 11, 12 at 0:20
I don't know how I could ever get along without daffodils. And I like crocus too. But daffs and tulips are my favorites of the spring bulbs. And I have lots of unnammed daffs growing here too that just came from Big Box store purchases. |

I am obsessed with this super simple and fresh salad. For some reason, grapefruit has been particularly juicy, sweet, and delicious this season. I paired the grapefruit with some winter kale and crunchy pumpkin seeds for a light salad.
For this recipe, it is perfectly acceptable to play with your food. Massaging the kale with extra virgin olive oil, salt, and lemon juice makes the kale leaves soft and tender. See the leaves before and after…kind of crazy what a difference a little massage can make!
Before Massage…
After Massage…
I cut the grapefruit into supremes and then cut them into smaller pieces. Use oranges if you prefer.
Raw Kale and Grapefruit Salad Recipe
- 1 large bunch of curly kale, stems removed and cut into bite size pieces
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 grapefruits
- 3 tablespoons raw pumpkin seeds
- Place the kale in a large bowl and drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with the salt, and add the lemon juice. Massage the kale for 2-3 minutes until the leaves are soft and coated in the oil.
- Slice off the top and bottom of each grapefruit. Run the knife down the sides of each grapefruit removing the peel and pith. Using a pairing knife, cut the fruit segments apart from in between the membranes. Cut supremes into bite size pieces.
- Stir the grapefruit into the kale. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds.
Serves 4

I am new to shade/woodland gardening. I have less than a 1/4 acre with over 50 mature mountain laurel and almost 100 trees. Needless to say, I don't have one blade of grass. So, I'm also new to dealing with voles(not moles) and snails(not slugs). Voles:
-I have coated roots and bulbs of everything I have planted thus far with red pepper in hopes that it will deter them.
Do people suggest using fresh ground coffee instead of used coffee grounds because research has indicated a 2% solutuion of caffeine is effected and used coffee only has .5% caffeine?
I am thankful for any comments, advice or methods you have tried.

Hi Basically slugs are snails without shells. I started using escar-go 2 years ago as I had a horrendous slug problem. It is safe for you and your pets--its only iron--but it stops slugs from eating and might work with your snails. I swear by it. Good luck Pat |
Mulchwoman is right. Escar-go or Sluggo are both environmentally safe yet very effective. It's a bit expensive but a little goes a long way. Use your coffee grounds in your compost heap, worms love 'em. I've never dealt with voles. |
As you develop your organic garden you provide the right environment for slugs, cool, moist dark areas for them to live and grow in. To protect the plants these slugs seem to like the best, until the toad population grows enough to control them, spray the plants with cold, caffienated coffee, the same stuff people drink only allowed to cool. Red pepper sprinkled around plants, if it is the really hot stuff, may aid in controlling the voles, but most often putting some sharp stone around the planting areas helps the best for voles. |
- Posted by dibbit z7b SC (email@example.com) on Tue, May 29, 07 at 9:03
I believe that it's the liquid coffee sprayed on the plants that deters snails and slugs - the coffee grounds don't do much. If you apply them very heavily, you tend to get mold. Use the coffee grounds as a light sprinkling around acid-loving plants, or add them to your compost pile - earthworms like them. The caffeine, either in your compost or sprayed on the plants, won't be enough to make a difference. I know that spraying oil of peppermint mixed with water around a room, almost daily, will deter mice from making their home there. You could try using either the oil or fresh or dried mint leaves, scattered around the plants you want to protect, or tossed down holes. Other essential oils might be a deterrent also. If you could persuade one to move in, a nice big blacksnake would thin the vole population. I am just glad I only have meadow voles, which can do a sufficient amount of damage, but .... My cats and dog seem to keep them under control. |

All pepermint oil did for me was to give my mice fresh breath. Coffee grounds were a great fertilizer. If you have voles, you have moles, because voles use mole holes/trails to get around. They don't dig their own -- much. You might try that copper stripping around the edges of your pots. It's rather expensive for larger gardening areas, but they say this actually does keep snails from traversing the coppered area. I don't know about the electrocution thing, but I enjoy the thought. Plant your bulbs and plants with crushed oyster shells. They're sharp, degrade slowly, and add calcium to the soil I envy your trees. :) Christine |
- Posted by tetrazygia (My Page) on Fri, Jun 8, 07 at 16:15
One point--don't use the coffee (or any caffeine products) in any area where you have an interest to keep frogs or toads around. Caffeine, diluted to 2%, is what they successfuly use in Hawaii to kill invasive frogs. |
- Posted by skagit_goat_man_ WA (My Page) on Fri, Jun 8, 07 at 22:02
What works for me with voles is the mouse trap with peanut butter. I put it next to an active access hole and then cover it with a large coffee can. No danger to other animals and the rain doesn't wash off the PB. Tom |

Ok I'm a total failure with seeds but I can't resist; every spring they get to me!!! Does anyone have any experience with any of these? Monodora myristica (on these I actually found this on the internet : "germination is noticeably better when the seeds have passed through the digestive tract of chimpanzees or the fruit has been drug in by the dung beetle")!! Elyotropis chilensis Backhousia citriodora Turraea obtusifolia Holboellia angustifolia (he he, I found another one!) Duabanga grandiflora Quillaia brasiliensis Voacanga africana Guichenotia macrantha |

Hi Fenius..how have you been? Oh my! Are you serious or kidding about the proper way to germinate Monodora seeds, via, chimp/beetles? I'll be honest. I've never heard of the tropicals you listed. Ever. Not-a-one. Wish each name was clickable. I hope someone can help you. Good luck sowing, Toni |
- Posted by hopefulauthor z5IL (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sat, Apr 6, 13 at 13:10
Fenius. I couldn't allow myself to be too lazy to research our plants. I Googled each, first pics, then sowing procedures. All your seeds are listed on Google. What I did was type, 'in Google search window,' I Googled every plant on your list. Are you sure elyotropis is the correct spelling? Two sites that might help. http://www.kew.org/science-research-data/kew-in-depth/difficult-seeds/species-profiles/monodora-myristica/ http://www.sunshine-seeds.de/index.php?cPath=126_835&sort=2a&page=8 Again, good luck. Toni |
Thanks Toni, you are very thoughtful!!! I did that too.. for all of them and I found some general info on their germination mainly on commercial sites like sunshineseeds in germany that you mentioned ecc.. but I was hoping someone here would maybe have personal experience.. oh well, I guess it will start with me, but don't get your hopes up! Elyotropis is actually elytropus chilensis, it was misspelled in the site I bought it from..here is the link w/ the chimps: |
Here is a link that might be useful: monodora myristica

Morning, Fenius, you're more than welcome. I tried opening the link you posted, My 'puter is acting up, so it wouldn't open..Think I need a new computer. I'll retry later. I wanted to get back to you after reading a couple seeds needed immediate sowing. I don't think you'd be happy if they dried out. :( I understand what you mean. Google is helpful, but talking to people who have first-hand experience is even better. I enjoy reading different opinions and success rates, too. Google didn't have any info for Elyotropis. Instead, Search asked, 'do you mean,' then listed a different plant,...can't recall which plant now. lol. Good luck, hope all your seeds germinate...Toni |

By now you may have read about the outrageously delish sartorial demands sorority girls rushing Pi Phi at Cornell must contend with. In a world where LiLo-style jeggings are fully wrong, but Audrey Hepburn staple capri pants are not, we don't wanna be right. We too have gotten our hands on this astounding tome. But the devil is truly in the details. Let's take a look at the section called, "HAIR, MAKEUP & HANDS," with the subtitle: "MY FAVORITE. These are life lessons so read carefully."
Oh, in that case, we're just gonna let the document speak for itself. Keep reading »

let the rain wat i feel right now come down.........words are lost to me rite now...like theres nothing to say.....i want to speak i got to speak i need to speak....nothing......
life depressive, love is even worse. why is it that i crave it so much, why is it even though i hate my life so much i want to live to see tommorow. wat am i thinkin that its gonna change, even thiugh its always the same. i jus wish i could skip my life till im in high school, or college, or anytime but now....skip to when im prettier or skinnier, or when ever im not me. i jus want to live in a time, place lifetime where im accepted, able to be me, can have a girl, anything but this.........no words can express me and no words can express my life and no words can or will express my illness.....
happy valentines day......love Kodak13
p.s im gona kill these kids...so heres the proof to send me to jail.....im jus kidding...lol
Hang in there! And I always find that I want to live to see what happends tomorrow because I Know that it will get better. And also, I'm curious. I want to see more of life, more than what I've seen and experienced so far, cuz' I know that there's so much more to it than what I've seen/experienced as of right now. That's my reason/motive to keep truckin :)
"What they don't know can't hurt them
but it sure as hell can hurt me"
life sux sometimez...trust me, i know. but i totally agree with Kodak13 - there's so much out there to see and do and experience. life is sad, horrible, and unfair-true, but more so, it's exciting and happy and full of love (not necessarily romantic. it's just that romantic love is an obsession in our society)
so just take it one day at a time
and as for being prettier and skinnier....bleh. beauty really is in the eyes of the beholder. I, for one, am attracted to all sorts of girls. they don't necessarily have to be the skinny or stereotypically pretty ones.
so, hope you feel better soon
hugs and chocolate :0)
It's going to get better, stick with it!
so very close to what you had expected
it makes it hard to keep my head up level
tell me I'm what your hands were made for
tell me I'm who your mouth was made for

I thought this would be quite a good post because it shows 5 products i think everyone needs in 2014 3 of them are high end and the other drugstore so there is some variance there.
My first pick is the Benefit Dandelion Ultra Plush Lipgloss (£14.50) which is a pearly pink colour, its so cute if you just want a hint of colour on your lips or if you just like using lipgloss it also makes a great addition to lipstick put this on top for a gorgeous shine. I really like these lipglosses simply because they arnt sticky at all they are more of a gel texture so thats a big plus for me
My next pick is the Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blush (£15.50) (full review) in any shade, i recently review the colour "Glamour" which is a Terracotta Pink its perfect for any skin tone which makes it really versatile i like the fact you can build up the pigment with these either have a sheer wash of colour or something bright and eye catching
Then we have something which i use on a day to day basis the Oribe Dry Texturising Spray which comes in 2 sizes the 75ml is £18 or the 300ml is £38. What i like best about this product is that it can be used in a number of different ways either on shorter hair to give a messy texture or it can be used in longer hair to create texture or volume its great to use for teasing.
My last highend pick has to be the Makeup Atelier Paris Gel Eyeliner (£13) (full review) simply because its so versatile it can be used as a smudge proof/water resistant base that can be blended out to create a gorgeous smokey eye or as its intended purpose as an eyeliner. I think the big selling point of this eyeliner is the fact its smooth like butter so its a dream to apply but once you apply it its not coming off unless you physically remove it with a good waterproof makeup remover
I'm happy to answer any and all questions.

Poison alarm
Published: Monday | September 7, 2009
Health officials at the Bustamante Hospital for Children are urging the Government to impose strict legislation governing the storage of household chemicals and other harmful substances.
The call came against the backdrop of a 2005-2007 study conducted by officials at the Bustamante Hospital for Children, which shows that a large proportion of children are turning up for treatment of chemical ingestion.
"This is something that was already passed in the US in 1971 and we are still lagging behind in mandating that all wholesalers and retailers ensure that whatever they are distributing the chemicals in should have child-resistant container," said senior resident ear, nose and throat surgeon at the Kingston Public Hospital, Guyan Channer.
Channer was addressing persons at the second annual Kingston Public Hospital Clinical Conference at The Jamaica Pegasus hotel yesterday.
According to Channer, the study showed that of the more than 11,000 patients admitted over the three-year period, chemical ingestion accounts for almost one per cent, nearly 110 patients, per year. There was equal gender distribution among the patients, he said.
Parents missing in action
Channer said the research indicated that a high proportion of the cases involved lack of supervision by very young mothers.
"When I look at the maternal age with respect to the patients, I realise that, on average, the age of the mother at the birth of the child was roughly 17 or 18.
"In almost every single patient, there is a problem with supervision ... . It's either the child was left home with a grandparent, a neighbour or someone who was not really responsible and as a result it is easy to understand how these children run into these problems."
The study showed that bleach, thinner, kerosene and medication accounted for the lion's share of cases.
Channer implored parents to pay keen attention to the storage of household chemicals and to label containers with potentially harmful substances.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this recipe. Taleggio, truffles and mushroom. What's not to like?
I was very pleasantly surprised by this recipe. Taleggio, truffles and mushroom. What's not to like?
This was very yummy but it didn't blow me away. I couldn't find Taleggio cheese so I used the recipe recommended Fontina. I also sauteed the mushrooms first (I used baby bellas) and I don't think I would have liked it had I put them on the pizza raw. The other diners all liked it and agreed that it's better than the average mushroom pizza but no one raved about it.
OMG!! This was so incredible!! I used dried and rehydrated porcinis. I soaked them for 30 minutes and patted them very dry using multiple paper towels, then chopped them coarsely and put them on a premade cornmeal crust from Vicolo which is made in the San Francisco area, which I had previously drizzled with Napa Valley Oil Company EVOO (a true find and staple in my kitchen). I added a little freshly ground black pepper and sea salt and then baked in the middle of a preheated oven at 475 on a cookie sheet for about 20 minutes until the taleggio and crust were golden brown. No truffle oil was available in my larder but really not necessary with the intense flavor of the porcinis melding perfectly with the equally large flavor of the telaggio. Will make it again later this weekend for my boyfriend. He will devour it!!
I think this is my favorite pizza recipe ever (second to the Three-Cheese Pizza with Pancetta and Mushrooms, on this site). I followed other reviewers' advice and sauteed the mushrooms first in oil, then set the oven temp to 450 rather than 500. I also oiled the parchment paper after one reviewer complained that the pizza stuck to it. The parchment burned horribly, but the pizza lifted off like a dream, and was a little burn-y on the bottom, which made it even more delicious. I can't wait to make this again!
I was a little scared that 500 degrees was going ot burn this dish, but it actually dried out the mushrooms perfectly in very little time. This was delicious- - I cant believe they put truffle oil as optional -- its a necessity in my book! Amazingly good.
awesome flavors, but definitely do the pizza without the parchment paper. the recipe didn't say anything about oiling parchment paper and when i followed the recipe exactly, the parchment paper was completely stuck to the pizza so we had to throw it out :( but the flavors are great - we will definitely try again, minus the parchment paper :)
