Bernard Sumner reveals details of his autobiography
Bernard Sumner has confirmed details of his autobiography.
Chapter And Verse (New Order, Joy Division And Me) will be published by Transworld on September 25. It had been announced in June 2013 that Sumner had signed a deal to publish his memoirs.
The accompanying press release states that the book will offer "a vivid and illuminating" account of Sumner's childhood in Salford, before detailing his thoughts on Joy Division, New Order and the Hacienda nightclub. It continues: "Sometimes moving, often hilarious and occasionally completely out of control, this is a tale populated by some of the most colourful and creative characters in music history."
The book is Sumner's first.
New Order are currently on a North American tour which finishes on Sunday (July 13) at Los Angeles' Greek Theater. They have previewed one new song, "Singularity", a video of which can be seen below. A new album is provisionally due out next spring. The Chemical Brothers' Tom Rowlands was working with the band in 2013, but it isn't known who the final producers are on the album.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) An Alameda County judge will continue hearing testimony next week before deciding whether to grant a preliminary injunction that would prevent 40 suspected gang members from gathering in an east Oakland neighborhood.
Judge Robert Freedman did not issue a ruling following a two-hour hearing Wednesday, but continued the hearing until next Wednesday.
The ban, if approved, would temporarily prohibit about 40 alleged Nortenos street gang members from associating with other alleged gang members in a 450-square-block radius, primarily in Oakland's Fruitvale area.
Attorneys representing Oakland say the injunction is comparable to a restraining order and meant to protect residents in an area the gang has terrorized for decades
Defense attorneys are seeking more time to prepare their clients' cases. Critics say the injunction could lead to racial profiling as well as divide poor, working people

The action page of the form should have this javascript line in it:
If this post contains any code, I may or may not have tested it. It's probably just example code, so no getting knickers in a bunch over a typo, OK? If it doesn't have basic error checking in it, such as object detection or checking if objects are null before using them, put that in there. I'm giving examples, not typing up your whole app for you. You run code at your own risk.

Bet you thought Santa only came once a year. Well, don't be too sure! PETA's "Sexy Santas" are making the rounds to let fur-wearers know that they're on our naughty list this year. Check us out at these anti-fur demos handing out free candy canes and info on the horrors of fur, leather, and wool.
Some holiday shoppers might be wondering what the problem is with a little fur, but luckily our sexy Santa is here to educate them. Anyone who thinks it's OK to wear the product of innocent lives deserves a little more than a stocking full of coal, if you ask me! Hopefully some compassionate shoppers will decide to go "Ho, ho, faux" this year and give an early Christmas gift to animals on fur farms.
Speaking of the horrors of the fur industry, someone should let fur hag Donna Karan know about the torture that goes into her clothes (oh, right, we did). Check out our brand new Donna Karan Bunny Butcher site to learn more about our campaign!

Sowing the Seeds of Research Success
Faculty research investment program yields 25-to-1 returns in external funding.
If stock market investments were as successful as the University of North Dakota's faculty research seed money program, some might be praising Wall Street instead of trying to occupy it.
According to Barry Milavetz, associate vice president for research and economic development, over the past five years the University has given out $1.3 million in research seed money grants to 55 faculty. In return, UND has received 36 external grant awards worth a total of about $33 million — a rate of return better than 25 to 1.
The goal of the seed money program is to enhance the ability of full-time faculty to submit successful extramural grant applications.
"By all measurements, it is a very successful program," Milavetz noted. "It's doing what it was intended to do."
The program, in existence since 2000, was the idea of William Sheridan, Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor of biology. The goal was to assist faculty members in submitting competitive research proposals to major funding organizations, such as the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
One of its primary functions has been to help new faculty researchers become established to a point where they can begin to attract external funding.
"The reality for a new faculty member is that it's probably going to take them three years to get funded externally," Milavetz said. "A startup package usually doesn't last more than two years. That immediately puts them in a bind. They have lots of money for two years and then they might hit a blockade. If they get a seed money award during their third year, that's what gets them through that time period."
The other valuable aspect of the program is to help established researchers bridge the gap from one area of research to another.
"One of the 'kisses of death' is not to change with the field," Milavetz said. "If you're going to continue to ask your questions in exactly the same way, eventually the funding agency will comment on that. They'll say that the field has moved into a different area."
As Milavetz knows from personal experience as a biomedical researcher at the School of Medicine and Health Sciences, "It can be tough. You really have to make the change. Otherwise the funding sources will dry up. It's fairly common with such agencies as the NIH where you have a 1 in 10 chance of being funded."
Funding for the program — approximately $300,000 annually — comes from the Office of the Vice President for Research and Economic Development. The Faculty Research Seed Money
Committee makes awards ranging from $1,000 to $40,000 in support of faculty projects in any department of the University.
Faculty proposals are subjected to a competitive review and ranked by subcommittees from related disciplines with members appointed by departments. The proposals must be designed to develop a project or provide preliminary data for one or more extramural grant proposals.
Program participants must submit a final report to the Office of Research Development and Compliance. The report includes a summary of study results, how the funds were spent, and whether the project resulted in external grant proposals or awards, publications or presentations.
Faculty research seed money success stories
Kathryn Thomasson, professor of chemistry
Thomasson, who's been at UND for 18 years, credits the faculty seed money
research program not only with helping her move from one research area into another, but also with increasing the scope of her research on cell energy production.
Her work could help answer questions such as why cell mechanisms in diabetics break down and interfere with the body's ability to turn food into energy. One of her graduates is looking at finding an effective treatment for malaria using the lab techniques she developed.
"When I started out, my research was dealing with tiny little peptides, tiny little systems," Thomasson said. "I have been able to expand to ask questions I never thought I could ask. We've gotten so much larger, and we're heading larger still."
Thomasson received a seed program grant for $16,800 late last year. She recently received a three-year, $235,980 NIH award for "Channeling Within Glycolysis: Steps Involving Nicotene Adenine Dinucleotide."
"The seed money is enabling me to connect with computer science on campus," she noted. "I'm working with a computer scientist who can deal with the computer code that handles the larger systems, and we've had some success."
The research Thomasson did with the seed money enabled her to submit the grant proposal to the NIH. Even though it's a different project, some of the proteins she's studying are the same.
"Instead of looking at individual, isolated proteins, with the NIH grant we're looking at protein-protein interactions," she explained. "Plus, since these proteins are enzymes, we're looking at how they pass small molecules from one active site to another."
As many researchers have found, Thomasson reached a point where she needed to bridge the gap from one research area to another. The Faculty Research Seed Money Program helped her to do that.
"I had 12 years of funding from the NIH, but it was time to change gears," she said. "That was difficult because it hit at the time when national funding rates started dropping, particularly NIH. The seed money has helped keep me going and it's enabling me — thanks to the connection with computer science — to start asking questions that I couldn't deal with before."
James Foster, assistant professor of biochemistry and molecular biology
If James Foster had left this area for greener pastures, he may not have had the opportunity to explore a treatment for Parkinson's disease, which his father suffered from for 20 years.
Foster was recently awarded a three-year, $406,000 grant from the NIH for a project titled "Dopamine Transporter Palmitoylation." The grant came through the NIH National Institute on Drug Abuse because understanding how the dopamine transporter works in brain cells could lead to breakthroughs in treating drug addiction.
The dopamine transporter is also linked to depression, attention deficit disorder and schizophrenia, as well as neurological cell death with Parkinson's disease.
"The dopaminergic systems are involved in reward," Foster explained. "It's that good feeling you get after eating a bowl of ice cream. It's the same with cocaine and amphetamine. You get sustained and high levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine released, opening the reward pathways. That's the euphoria and feeling of well-being that you get from these drugs."
The NIH grant might not have been possible without the support Foster received from UND's Faculty Seed Money Research Program. His research led to the publication of a paper in the prestigious Journal of Biological Chemistry, which served as the basis for the NIH grant proposal.
After graduating from Bemidji State University, Foster, a Greenbush, Minn., native, came to UND and earned his Ph.D. studying under Robert Nordlie, Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor of biochemistry and molecular biology (now retired). Foster had opportunities to go elsewhere, but decided that he'd prefer to stay closer to home. Twenty-two years later, he's still here.
Foster became involved in neuroscience research while working with Roxanne Vaughan, Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor of biochemistry and molecular biology. In the department, he also teaches carbohydrate metabolism.
"I'm kind of a duck out of water," observed Foster. "I know they always talk about trying to keep the young people in North Dakota. "Although I wasn't born in this state, I've lived in Grand Forks the past 22 years, so I kind of feel like I'm a North Dakotan."

Call abbreviation a trend in bottoms these days. Alle Fister, a spokesperson for ShopBop, a hip online destination, has a theory as to why. "We are seeing a lot of abbreviated bottoms, as we're in the heart of the spring and transitioning into summer. Cropped styles are great for this time of year because they provide the perfect amount of coverage for this weather." But to give fashion its due, there is also a movement at hand, aside from the warmer weather, which might account for the hike in hemlines. "Another huge trend now is leggings and what is great about this is it affords more women the opportunity to wear shorts and micro-minis," Fister continues. "They can still get coverage with style when combining and layering these looks with leggings; leggings allow more women to feel comfortable in these shorter styles."
According to the Cotton Incorporated Lifestyle Monitor™, a majority of women gravitate towards trends in dressing, indicating that they will probably be embracing the prevalence of shorter silhouettes this season. 57% of female respondents told the Monitor that their typical clothing purchases were for new and different clothing, rather than replacing current items.
FEMALE RESPONDENTS | 05Q1 | 06Q1 | Unit Change | |||
Number of Denim Jeans | 7.85 | 9.11 | +1.26 | |||
Number of Denim Shorts | 2.86 | 3.4 | +0.50 | |||
Number of Denim Dresses | 0.76 | 0.78 | +0.02 | |||
Number of Denim Skirts | 1.48 | 1.58 | +0.10 |
"There are a wide range of options out there in bottoms that allow us to do our own thing," tells Stephanie Pappas, a co-owner of Eva, a boutique in downtown Manhattan. "It's a great time for mixing and matching silhouettes; many skirts are knee-length and short shorts are really happening right now."

Kendall Gill with the Bulls in 2003. Tom Cruze~Sun-Times Media
Comcast SportsNet Bulls analyst Kendall Gill has been suspended from his on-air duties after an altercation in the studio on Tuesday with Big Ten Network analyst Tim Doyle.
The incident took place after the "Sports Talk Live" show, where Doyle was a guest and spoke critically of Gill's assessment of the controversial ending to the Bulls-Denver game on Monday.
Gill approached Doyle on his way out of the CSN studio and a fight broke out.
"We're looking further into the incident that took place in our newsroom [last evening]," CSN Chicago news director Kevin Cross said in a statement. "Until the investigation is complete, Kendall Gill will not be appearing on our air."
Gill played 15 years in the NBA—one season with the Bulls—after starring at Illinois. Doyle played for Northwestern from 2004 to 2007 before joining the Big Ten Network.

Revised Standard Version (RSV) | New International Version (NIV) |
7 Now therefore stand still, that I may plead with you before the LORD concerning all the saving deeds of the LORD which he performed for you and for your fathers. | 7 Now then, stand here, because I am going to confront you with evidence before the LORD as to all the righteous acts performed by the LORD for you and your fathers. |
8 When Jacob went into Egypt and the Egyptians oppressed them, then your fathers cried to the LORD and the LORD sent Moses and Aaron, who brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and made them dwell in this place. | 8 "After Jacob entered Egypt, they cried to the LORD for help, and the LORD sent Moses and Aaron, who brought your forefathers out of Egypt and settled them in this place. |
9 But they forgot the LORD their God; and he sold them into the hand of Sis'era, commander of the army of Jabin king of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab; and they fought against them. | 9 "But they forgot the LORD their God; so he sold them into the hand of Sisera, the commander of the army of Hazor, and into the hands of the Philistines and the king of Moab, who fought against them. |
10 And they cried to the LORD, and said, 'We have sinned, because we have forsaken the LORD, and have served the Ba'als and the Ash'taroth; but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve thee.' | 10 They cried out to the LORD and said, 'We have sinned; we have forsaken the LORD and served the Baals and the Ashtoreths. But now deliver us from the hands of our enemies, and we will serve you.' |
11 And the LORD sent Jerubba'al and Barak, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side; and you dwelt in safety. | 11 Then the LORD sent Jerub-Baal, Barak, Jephthah and Samuel, and he delivered you from the hands of your enemies on every side, so that you lived securely. |
12 And when you saw that Nahash the king of the Ammonites came against you, you said to me, 'No, but a king shall reign over us,' when the LORD your God was your king. | 12 "But when you saw that Nahash king of the Ammonites was moving against you, you said to me, 'No, we want a king to rule over us'--even though the LORD your God was your king. |
13 And now behold the king whom you have chosen, for whom you have asked; behold, the LORD has set a king over you. | 13 Now here is the king you have chosen, the one you asked for; see, the LORD has set a king over you. |

Follow-Up Postings:
WELL HELLO!! Wow...what an intro...and yet, no name other than all the plants. You are already an accomplished lister as you were successful with your photos. RIGHT ON!...y'all (hehehe). Your dorm room looks colorful. Glad to see that! I write everyday, so....get good at it now and it will serve you well later! I know Jodi will chime in about your cocoa peat "stuff"...listed well, grasshopper. (don't know why I'm in a silly mood this morning, but it's a good thing) Keep us posted. Glad your mother is an enabler. It's more fun that way! I think the rescued bulbs appreciate us a little more! |
Welcome to the forum! Kristi's right... we now know the names of all your plants, but not yours! Should we call you AllStar... or? Nice photos, and a very colorful dorm room! More color is on the way with those buds! Red Lion is a very lovely red, and I can't wait to see what that Phal looks like! I never attended college, but I doubt I'd miss it if I had... school was not the high point of my life! I cringe when my son tells me about all the studying and paper writing he has to do... I'm glad you're having a good time, though... it's so important to get that education these days! And it's a time in your life that you'll treasure later, as you get older. I'm in the Midwest, where the only accent is a "Chicago" accent, if you're from the city! Ya'll is rarely used... we're more apt to say "you guys" than "all ya'll"! Be sure to post more pictures when your plants bloom! We love a good flower photo, as you can tell! Kristi's right... I'm looking at that soil, and I'm trying really hard not to preach the basics of container gardening! ;-) Just be really careful about watering... that coir stuff has a tendency to wet unevenly, and to hold moisture for longer than it should around the root ball. If you are interested in scoping out the different mediums that can be used, there's plenty of information in past posts. Being a student, I'm sure you'll sponge it up! :-) Welcome! Kick back and relax... and enjoy Hippi Season with us! |
Welcome to the forum! Nice plant and a very interesting mix, very eclectic, like me! You are doing something right to have the Phal blooming or spiking anyway - warmth and humidity should keep things going right! I have a dozen Phals and just love them for their ease of culture. I see you first hippie has a pup ("Aspen", in actuality it will look exactly like the mother bulb, the fun will be in growing it big enough to bloom. Two years is about right though. 'Red Lion' is a very good variety to add; lovely, large, deep red blooms and a good grower as well. Lastly I have to applaud you for keeping the "Lucky Bamboo" alive for so long, I just can not grow the things! As for y'all comin from Bama, that's just alright with me and you ken use all the colloquialisms y'all want. I might be from Central Indiana, but my heart's in Dixie! Again, WELCOME ABOARD, Y'ALL! Rebecca |

How're ya'll doin' this am? Welcome from Texas. I say ya'll to the dog, and make groceries, run a mop around the floor and I'm always fixin' to do something. I've got a couple of named plants, George the pothos that has lived with me for 29 years and Harold the dracena who is almost as old. They are both planted in the back garden. Hippis are an obsession to say the least. Wait'll ya'll get a load of Jodiks windowsills! CHAD is horrible on this forum, I have a list hundreds long! I went to nursing school so didn't have to write papers all that much, more lab work than anything. And I do NOT miss it! |
Hi from Washington State where we are such a mixing pot that all accents are sort of comprehended and often used in our slang from down south to Korean, LOL. What a wonderful enthusiasm and practice with your plants! I did not get into growing until I had a houseful of small children and needed to escape outside occassionally! That was many years ago and all the kids are grown which leaves more room in my house for plants. However, I now have two young Gordon Setters who would love to dismember my collection for the sheer puppyish joy of it....but as Kristi says, "Gordon Setters get their brains on their 3rd birthday" so maybe in another 2 years I can put some of my amies down lower again. Fortunately I have a garden room in the corner of the garage where dogs are not allowed, and I can spread things out under lights! Well, we all will be glad to help you with Any questions (If we know the answers) and look forward to seeing the blooms on your flower children! |
- Posted by beachplant 9b (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Thu, Dec 3, 09 at 13:10
Duh, my name is Tally, I live in Galveston, TX. I've been gardening since I could crawl out to the dirt. I grow my hippis in the garden, in pots till they bloom then OUT WITH YOU!, luckily they like our climate. If we don't know the answers we'll make them up, or ask Jodi. |
he he he...Laka's package of brains have arrived early. She is soooo calm and cute. However, last night as I was rushing to get all hippis in the greenhouse, which is now filled to the gills, she had to "help" and was running around the yard with be strappy leaves in her mouth. Then, when I was just about finished and making the mad dash to save the eggplant and pepper plants and had put my huge plumeria by the enclosed porch to put it in, "WHAM"....it crashed over and broke. I didn't see who was involved, but a certain youngster looked guilty! Sigh...she is calming down though... |

Hey y'all! (I learned that living here in NC) Welcome! I'm a bit new myself and just learning - mostly by reading the forum and by accident. Nice job rescuing the Red Lion. They do look a bit strange with the albino scape thing but based on your pic it's doing well now. And no, it's not writing the papers I miss about college! ;-) Alana |
- Posted by bama_gardener 8b (My Page) on Thu, Dec 3, 09 at 19:15
Welcome, Allstar, I, too, am from "Southern Alabama". I am in Mobile, not far from Univ of So Ala.-go by each time I go over to the Botanical Gardens. Are you anywhere close? I have some of the same plants that you do - Lucky Bamboo, Phals (3 with spikes), and my Hippis (none of which have names), which are increasing in number fast. I love this forum with all the friendly, knowledgeable people; I've learned so much since I began reading all the posts. It's been years since college but I did take the Master Gardener classes 4 years ago at the local Extension Office and ,WOW, that was hard on the brain, but well worth it. Looking forward to seeing some blooms on Gigage!!! Beverly |
- Posted by allstarsgymnast7 8, Southern AL (My Page) on Thu, Dec 3, 09 at 22:09
Yes, I do have a name. I was thinking about that as I was on my way to the forum today. I was just so caught up in my plants I forgot my own name! haha. My name's Katherine, but more commonly, I go by Kate. Oh, don't worry Kristi and Jodi... I used the cocoa peat "nonsense" just for the first two or three days just to get some moisture to "wake up" roots. Put the roots in it, with the bulb on top of rocks to keep the bulb from getting wet. After that time, I put it in my usual mix - which I'm thinking about tweaking later after reading past posts and reading recommended articles by Jodi :). The cocoa peat I've learned to be nonsense after reading several posts about other rescue missions. :) I learn quickly! haha. My lucky bamboo has been really interesting. It came in 3 stalks, but one just started looking bad so I separated it from the others. Then it just turned completely yellow, and I discarded it. I have a brita filter so I water with that - apparently the only thing they are picky about is water; the purer the better. I water weekly and TRY to clean the rocks and glass vase every time too. I feed it monthly or less with an African Violet fertilizer. It seems to be working well. New leaves are perkier and bottom leaves are not yellowing like they used to. "CHAD is horrible on this forum, I have a list hundreds long!" - I must say, I agree 100%! I'm always afraid going into the store for more supplies. I never know what I'll leave with! haha. My friends in nursing school, well, sometimes I forget about them Tally! They're always studying or out doing clinical work! Beverly, I was wondering when I saw your zone if you were in Mobile because that's where I am. Right down the road from South, actually, at Spring Hill! I've joined this forum for the same reasons you have. I can't get enough information! Master Gardener? I imagine that would be hard on the brain. Sometimes reading the deeper subjects on forums can be hard enough to read. Congratulations, though. Sounds like a title well earned! :) I'm glad to have other "y'all" speakers! haha. My friend here at school is from Chicago, doesn't have too much of an accent, but we give him a hard time when he says "you guys" but even more trouble when he says, "y'all". What are friends for, right? haha I'm also glad to see I'm not the only one that names plants, haha. Some of my family members hear I get a new plant and ask me what I've named it. If I say it doesn't have a name, someone in my family (usually brothers) will quickly give it a name. Another thing, I get wordy on occasion. If that wasn't obvious already.. haha Well, I must say, I look forward to learning more from all y'all or even with y'all. If there's anything I've learned from life so far (which may not be much because I'm only 21 years old, haha), it's that everyday is a chance to learn something new... about anything, from anyone. You just gotta keep your eyes and ears open! Happy growing! |

Hey allstar being new has load of advatages I know this by experiance there awsum folks here very informed and even more helpfull indeed. Everything I know about hippes the one I have has teeth and it bite me. The hippies you posted make me want to check mine for teeth again. I call my lucky bamboo lucky I'll grab a pic and post it someday, loyd looks very good. Thanks for sharing Wes |
Well then... Kate, it is! So, welcome once again, Kate! These guys and gals give me too much credit! There are plenty of other ways to grow and garden, and what works for one person might not work for someone else with a different environment to contend with... but I always feel obligated to share what I've learned, because I'd hate for someone to have to deal with the disappointment of rotting bulbs, or some other issue that could have been avoided if the knowledge was available. And so... share, I do! Take what works, and leave the rest... the important thing is to have those of us who have gone before, lay it all out so others can choose the methods that work for them! I just recently lost the last piece of bamboo that I had growing in water... about 5 years ago I bought several short bamboo pieces at the mall... they were under a dollar apiece! I kept them growing in a jelly jar for a long time, but they slowly began to yellow and die. I'm not really sure that "grow" is the right word... they didn't really grow very much, at all! They did more sitting around than anything! I am glad that you read the articles, Kate... I wish I had known all that great information years ago! I could have saved myself a lot of disappointment... and a lot of plants! I'm actually still in the process of re-potting everything into the new medium, and I discovered a rotten bulb just this morning that was still floundering in the soil I used to use. I took some photos, and I should have them uploaded soon so I can share them. My little Olde Bulldogge, Maia, took just around three years to mature to the point where she's calmer and more adult-like. Having a litter of pups seems to have matured her, as well. She's still rambunctious... just not so much in the house... and she respects her boundaries, and my stuff, more than she did when she was younger. I think most dogs take a good three years to fully mature and calm. Why people want to rush into training and other grueling sports or activities before a dog is ready, I'll never know. I don't even begin strict obedience until a dog is about 6 months old... and I wait until the dog is mentally ready before embarking upon any other stressful training. It's too easy to ruin a good dog through rushing. Anyway... I'm trying to get through another night of insomnia... so please excuse any rambling! It's good to have you with us, Kate! I hope you stick with this hobby... it's so rewarding! |

Kate, you wrote "The cocoa peat I've learned to be nonsense after reading several posts about other rescue missions." I don't think cocopeat is that useless, if I where you I'd give it another tought. I used it until I now tried Jodiks approach. It works really well for me, since I'm watering from below. That way the cocopeat won't get compacted. There are problems with newly planted bulbs since you can easily over-water your plants. If they have lots of leaves and roots this problem doesn't exist anymore because they're sucking the cocopeat dry in no time! |
GF, it is time you transplanted those seedlings into individual pots! And be prepared for a major tangled mass of roots! I neglected a couple of 3 gallon pots of just 5 seedlings each for a couple of years and you wouldn't believe the root systems they had! If they are in growth now you will have to cut them back by half and then just dump the whole mess out on their side. You could pot several to a larger pot, but singly is generally better. Have any of these seedlings rolled off pups? Mine did even in the community pots. What did you cross, or are these open pollinated? In other words, did you purposely make the cross (dab the pollen) that resulted in these seeds/seedlings? Just curious! :-) Rebecca |
- Posted by e36yellowm3 7 Raleigh, NC (My Page) on Fri, Dec 4, 09 at 11:30
Rebecca, "open pollinated" - I've never heard that term before, but it makes sense! I think it means you put pollen on them then forget what you put where, right? ;-) Alana |
- Posted by betonklotz (My Page) on Fri, Dec 4, 09 at 12:19
Rebecca: I presented the cross in my thread. For further discussion go there, I don't want to take over this one from Kate. They're just an example for the benefits of cocofibre ;P |
Here is a link that might be useful: Greetings and so on ...
- Posted by bama_gardener 8b (My Page) on Fri, Dec 4, 09 at 16:54
Kate and Jodi, FYI Lucky Bamboo is a member of the dracena family (D. sanderiana) can also be grown in soil just like a regular houseplant. Just something I found in my recent reading and I plan to take mine out of the water and rocks and try growing it in soil. Kate, if yours is turning yellow, it might respond to planting in potting soil. Just a suggestion for when you have time since you are probably are getting ready for the holiday break in the next few weeks. Beverly |
Welcome Kate! Susan |
Thanks, Beverly! It's too late, as the last little bamboo stick died a while ago... but if I do ever get another bamboo plant, I'll remember to pot it in medium for better results. One of my relatives has a large cut glass bowl filled with beautiful bamboo growing in water! The group is all woven and braided together, and looks very decorative. She keeps it in a dim bathroom in her Florida condo over summer, and when they go down for winter, she takes it out into more light... and it thrives for her! It's nice and green and healthy looking! The few tiny stems I had never really grew much from either end, roots or leaves. They were just a cute novelty I thought I'd try. I will definitely remember that potting them will net better results! |

GF, I was saying it was nonsense for a rescued bulb. I imagine, as you said, a bigger, rootier plant such as yours would benefit. But the rescued bulb has very little root. Beverly, one stalk of the three I had turned yellow about this time last year. The other two are doing just fine in the rocks and water, so I have no clue what was going on with the one that yellowed. As the break heads my way, I will have a lot of planting to do. Some of the hippi seedlings I have are ready to be put in their own little pots now. I'm excited! Thanks for all the feedback and "welcome"s! |
- Posted by betonklotz (My Page) on Mon, Dec 7, 09 at 7:40
What the heck is GF? Rebecca used it to ... girlfriend ... now that can't be right! Then I got you wrong ... I thought you meant that cocopeat is nonsense regardless of the situation of the plant. At the moment my Picotee bulb is struggling in the cocofiber. First it decided to split into two and on both sides the new leaves stagnated. Now I've seen that it's pushing a stake, but I've got no idea how to water it ... I guess deep down there there's something wrong. It should be warm enough and I could keep myself away from watering again. *sigh* |
Del is a part of my first name. Googleing npublici will give you the rest of the story. Open pollination is the term used to describe letting nature do the pollinating; Bees, birds and various insects,and the wind. Open pollenation may produce a seedling of self pollenation, or a cross from wherever a bee has been, before he got to your flower. If there are Hippeastrum within two miles of you,a bee could bring pollen which would be the male parent to your seedlings. If you peruse older postings,you will find where various forum members have posted links to photos of their seedlings. Some seedlings produced by forum members equal or surpass commercial varieties. Del |

Did ya'll ever hear our former prez GW say ya'll? We would just roll around on the floor loao! You can really tell he's from the Northeast when he says ya'll. The man is NOT from Texas, never wore boots or belt buckles or said ya'll until he decided to run for prez, then he became a cowboy all of a sudden. And we got some great laughs, like the pic of him cutting brush on his land-with a chain saw!! Along the fence line! Hello! At least pose him in front of something BIG enough to use a chain saw on. Can you imagine trying to clear miles and miles of fence line with a chain saw??? LOL! Tally Ho! |
Del, Thank you for clearing up the "open pollination" def! GF is Girlfriend, good guess. Off to read "Greetings and so on" |
- Posted by betonklotz (My Page) on Mon, Dec 7, 09 at 14:00
In that case ... der Klotz ain't no girl! |
- Posted by allstarsgymnast7 8, Southern AL (My Page) on Mon, Dec 7, 09 at 20:52
haha, yeah, I just called you GF because rebecca did. My apologies! |
Around these parts, we use a machete to clear small brush and weeds from the fences, or we pull it out... the chainsaws are for actual trees! As we all know, pulling the stuff out by the roots will ensure it doesn't grow back for a while... until the next batch of weed seeds take over! About cocopeat... I noticed three distinct things about it when I used it... 1) it stayed soggy for quite some time... 2) it didn't absorb water evenly... 3) it collapsed fairly fast. Those three things made me rethink it as a bulb medium, and I'm glad I looked around for alternatives. By all means, if it works for you, use it... but for me, it's not conducive to good bulb health. I just can't wait until my seedlings from various crosses are mature enough to bloom! That will be an accomplishment, I think! |
Sorry about that Klotz, but that's the chance one takes when using and alias that isn't gender specific! And sometimes even when it is! LOL! Rebecca |
- Posted by betonklotz (My Page) on Tue, Dec 8, 09 at 11:49
Jodik: I just wrote that you shouldn't reject cocopeat that easy, it has it's advantages! No problem Rebecca. I just reused the name I have on the German plant forum, I'm also registered to. It translates to "concrete block", something that's totally masculine so I never thought I'd get these problems. I'd love to know how you'd pronounce Betonklotz ;) |
I know you like cocopeat, Carl, and if you have decent results using it, that's good. For me, it's just too fine in particle size, and not a good choice for my environment. The bottom line is, we each need to use what works the best for our growing conditions. Everyone grows a little bit differently, and their methods will reflect the environment they have to work with. Take orchids, for example... several people have told me that sphagnum moss is what I should use... but it retains too much moisture, and I find bark works a lot better in my environment. The important thing is that we know what choices are available... and that we're not stuck with only one option. :-) |
- Posted by betonklotz (My Page) on Wed, Dec 9, 09 at 6:36
I didn't mean anything else! I just wanted to say, "no cocopeat is not useless" it's a possible choice. |
I know! :-) |

this is a WELL used laptop. lots of sketches and dirt/dust. It works and turn on BUT not sure about the battery life in a laptop like this.
I have had no problems with this computer. It is faster than I thought it would be, I have a newer more expensive lap top that does not perfom as well. In turn I use this lap top if at all possible.

The first one shipped had a damaged pixelation on the screen and was a bigger screen, this one is much smaller on the screen but seems to be working fine with no damage.

I have a plant of this that is a couple of years old. It has gotten big in the wrong way! It sort of spreads out laterally, with lots of foliage but no flowers. It would be a nice, shortish (maybe 10 inches tall) foliage plant, but I had flowers in mind, for cutting. None of the leaves get very big, but there are a lot of them crowded together. No sign of a flower stalk. The plant is at least twice as wide as it is tall. Anybody know if this is normal behavior for this variety, and/or how tall it blooms, if it ever blooms?

Sorry Jeanne, I've never heard of that one. I planted the Russell mix last year. A red lupin sure would be gorgeous though. Where did you get the seed? By the way, thanks for listing the tulip varieties for me. It's much appreciated. Cheryl |

You're welcome. I didn't grow the lupine from seed, but bought two bareroot plants at the Seattle flower and garden show last year. One of them didn't survive the winter. I think it's a specific color of Russell's but I'm not sure. I also think Germania might have the individual flower color seeds, but once again, I'm not sure. I don't remember whether there was a photo on the package, but I've seen photos of it before, somewhere. Jeanne |
Jeanne, Ivy Garth seeds sells individual Russell Lupine colors. I've had very good success with their seeds, but the quantity is often more than I need. The Lupines sprout well and seem fairly easy to grow on. I love the flowers because they are so dramatic and they refrigerate well so I can use almost all the production at our once a week market. |

I just found 'My Castle Red Russell' Red lupine in the Fedco Seed Catalog. I was searching to see what it looked like and that's how I got to this forum. Just thought I'd share my seed source! |
Here is a link that might be useful: http://www.fedcoseeds.com/seeds/search.php?item=6184&search=My Castle Red Russell
I grew these from seed in 2009, and got flowers this summer. I did not cut any, though. They were too beautiful to sell! Next year I will, though. Lupine are particular with their soil requirements- they like crappy acidic soil, lol! I had an area that was an old driveway gravel that had grown over, right on the edge of my yard by the road. I added half a bucket of compost and they did really well. |

How is any one going to bitch about something being free??? No matter how difficult or tedious it is to get your money back or a credit. Just unreal. Stop complaining. If you don't like what you have to do to get the credit then just move on. Some of you just love to complain about every little thing. Get a freaking life.
Maybe we'd just like to feel like people and not circus animals? If you want to throw us a freebie now and then - then do it. We dont need to jump through the hoop or balance a ball on our nose to get it. I think that is all people are complaining about.
That said, there comes a time that "no matter how difficult or tedious" becomes more costly than the $5-$10 you might save.

An unlikely pair of Queens politicians were taken away from their homes in handcuffs before dawn Tuesday morning in what U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Preet Bharara called "an unappetizing smorgasbord of graft and greed."
State Sen. Malcolm Smith (D-Hollis) and Councilman Dan Halloran (R-Whitestone) were both arrested in an alleged plot to bribe GOP officials in an attempt to gain support for a potential Republican primary candidacy by Smith for mayor this year.
The arrests come only seven months after another Queens politician, former state Sen. Shirley Huntley, was also nabbed, for steering state money to a fake nonprofit.
"After the string of public corruption scandals that we have brought to light, many may rightly resign themselves to the sad truth that perhaps the most powerful special interest in politics is self-interest," Bharara said Tuesday.
Smith, a former majority leader of the state Senate, who acted as lieutenant governor of New York for a short time in 2008, was until Tuesday chairman of the Independent Democratic Caucus, which governs the state Senate in a coalition with Republicans. Halloran was elected to the City Council in 2009, replacing now-state Sen. Tony Avella (D-Bayside), and is up for re-election this year.
The bipartisan duo is accused, along with four others including Deputy Queens GOP Chairman Vince Tabone, Chairman of the Bronx Republican Party Joseph Savino and two upstate Democratic politicians, of trying to bribe officials into allowing Smith to gain a Wilson Pakula — an agreement that he can run on the Republican line for mayor even though he is a registered Democrat. The ensuing scandal allegedly led to a web of corruption that stretched to Rockland County and took down a half dozen politicians there, the Bronx and in Queens.
At the heart of the alleged conspiracy was Smith's attempt to run for mayor this year on the Republican line. State law requires Smith, a Democrat, to obtain a Wilson-Pakula — basically a permit from county party organizations — in order to run in the GOP primary. In order to do that, Smith and Halloran, one of only two elected Republicans in Queens, allegedly bribed Tabone and Savino to obtain both county organizations support for Smith.
The FBI investigated the scheme through an undercover agent who posed as a developer and a cooperating witness. In exchange for access to Queens and Bronx Republicans, Smith allegedly promised to allocate state money toward a development project in Spring Valley in Rockland County. The mayor and deputy mayor of that town were the two other suspects arrested.
According to Bharara's office, Tabone was allegedly given $25,000 in bribes from Smith in order to gain the Queens GOP's support for mayor. In helping Smith gain access, Halloran allegedly received more than $20,000 in bribes.
The entire scheme occurred over a five-month period beginning in November, with the last deal in the indictment allegedly occurring on March 21.
At one point, the indictment alleges, Tabone was concerned about the possibility of law enforcement uncovering the plot. He allegedly frisked the undercover agent looking for a recording device, but didn't find one.
The agent was, however, wearing one at the time.
Smith is charged with a count of conspiracy to bribe elected officials, wire fraud and extortion. Halloran is charged with a count of conspiracy to bribe elected officials and two counts of wire fraud, while Tabone is charged with one count of conspiracy to bribe elected officials and one count of wire fraud.
They were released Tuesday afternoon on $250,000 bail each and will return to federal court in White Plains on April 23.
The full text of the federal complaint is attached.

Unilever partners with Facebook alliance Internet.org to reach millions in India
Unilever today announced a partnership with Internet.org, a Facebook-led alliance of online partners, which will bring internet access to millions in rural India.
Internet.org: Facebook-led alliance teams up with Unilever
Unilever will use its in-country experience to carry out research and set up an activation programme, which will eventually be turned into a series of on-the-ground projects to improve "lives in rural India through better connectivity".
The multinational company already boasts extensive experience in developing and deploying programmes for rural consumers, last seen through its Lifebuoy soap brand activity promoting handwashing awareness in rural India, which has also enabled women in remote communities to enhance their incomes through the Shakti project.
Internet.org and Unilever will first carry out a comprehensive study to examine what opportunities are available to increase internet adoption in rural Indian communities.
The groups have already identified infrastructure and cost as barriers to internet connectivity in its target areas, but the companies will take pains to evaluate other educational and cultural factors that also limit internet use.
Chris Weasler, director of global connectivity at Facebook, called the internet "the foundation of the global knowledge economy and a way to deliver basic financial services, health education and tools", adding that the partnership will help millions of people find information that can help them and their communities to thrive.
Keith Weed, chief marketing and communications officer, Unilever, said: "Access to the internet is improving in countries like India, but there is still a very high proportion of people that would love the opportunity to connect and engage, but who cannot enjoy what many of us take for granted.
"Having no internet access naturally removes all associated opportunities that it brings which, in turn, can be a barrier to learning and ultimately hinder economic development.
"Through our long history of serving the Indian market we bring an in-depth understanding of rural Indian communities. We hope, together with Internet.org, we can use this know-how to understand better how a vital modern resource can benefit many more millions."

Hey, guys. This week's topic is procrastination because I have totally become a master of it in the last 4 weeks of college, let me tell you. So, in the first couple of weeks of college I was like yeah okay I'm totally going to do this. I'm going to get my homework done. I'm going to go to bed early. I'm going to wake up early. I'm going to be like a good student. And no, it didn't happen that way. So I started my study break about Thursday and that study break just happened to last 4 days long. Yes, that's right. I didn't do any homework until Sunday night. Anyway, so Thursday I went to have some fun with my roommate and we had a lot of fun and I was like wow this feels great. I'm just going to keep hanging out with people. Then I went to bed. Then Friday, got out of class about 10:00 and then I went straight to Union Square to go shopping because they had an awesome sale on underwear at American Eagle. Why would you turn that down? I wouldn't so I went. And I actually for the first time in my life went to the 3-story Forever 21. And then when we got back on Friday, I went straight to bake cookies with my friends.
Oh, everybody else guessed it.
We're making cookies.
We played apples to apples, and we all started singing Queen at some random point.
And then Saturday morning I went on a really awesome retreat for the new students through University Ministry and I met a lot of really fun people. And somehow we all ended up doing some type of chicken dance move but I had a lot of fun. And even then, I was just like okay when I get back from that I'm totally going to start my homework. That didn't happen either. I don't even know what I did. Sunday when I got it real, I had a 5-page rhetorical analysis due on Tuesday and then I realized that on Wednesday I had my first bio exam and Friday I had first chem exam; and I was just still it's not even mended. It really hit me. It actually just hit me right now. I am not looking forward to this week. I'm going to try to be veer off. No more procrastination for me I hope. That never happened. If you guys have any more comments or concerns or tips on how to get rid of procrastination or stories about how badly you procrastinated, please comment below. So yeah, okay. Got to learn about it. That's how I'm going to end this [unknown]--

Saying "we did fumble the ball," President Barack Obama announced a fix to the vexing problem of canceled health insurance policies Thursday. He told insurers they don't have to cancel plans next year just because of the Affordable Care Act.
Insurers can continue the plans for 2014 on two conditions - they have to tell people what their plans don't cover, and they have to let people know they do have the option of going onto the health insurance exchanges to buy new plans with federal government subsidies and perhaps go onto Medicaid.
"Insurers can extend current plans that otherwise would have been cancelled in 2014," Obama said.
He also apologized for the messy rollout of the health insurance exchanges. "We should have done a better job of getting this right on Day One," Obama told an hour-long White House news conference. "We did fumble the ball on it and one of the things I am going to do is make sure we get it fixed."
Critics of the health reform law, known widely as Obamacare, have made hay with reports that tens of thousands of people have been getting cancellation notices from their insurance companies, despite Obama's repeated promises that people who like their insurance plans can keep them. NBC News first reported that the White House knew the cancellations were coming.
"This is something I deeply regret because it's scary getting a cancellation notice," Obama said at a news conference. "It's on me. Those who got cancellation notices do deserve better and they received an apology from me. But they deserve more than words."
One main goal of Obamacare was to get rid of what the White House says are the worst abuses of the insurance industry -- caps on coverage, policies that charged women three to five times what a similar man was charged, policies that didn't pay for cancer screening.
Some of the policies that have been canceled were very inexpensive, part of the reason for the outrage. But insurance and health industry experts say it's because they were so bare-bones, they wouldn't have paid for much if they were ever needed. The White House keeps stressing that the new rules level the playing field a little bit, and offer most people much more in terms of coverage.

"A lot of people think, 'I've got pretty good health insurance', until they get sick," Obama said. He urged anyone with a cancelled insurance policy to look at what it available on the online exchanges. "If you received one of those letters, I encourage you to look at the marketplace," Obama said.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has also pointed out that the policies being canceled are mostly individual policies, not the big group policies offered by employers that cover most Americans. Those policies often change every year anyway, HHS says.
According to America's Health Insurance Plans, the industry's group, 19 million Americans have individual plans.

hidden surprise eggs
My daughter saw a picture of these yummy Rice Krispie treat eggs in a magazine and told me that I should feature them on my site. They do look really cute for Easter and would work good as decorations or Easter treats. To make them, Rice Krispie treats are molded using a plastic egg and making a little hollow in them for some extra M&M's. Then you just press the two sides together. I thought it was fun that these "eggs" even rattle when you shake them from the candy inside!
Hidden Suprise Eggs
12 Plastic snap-apart 3 x 2-in Easter eggs
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 package (10 oz., about 40) regular marshmallows
4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® cereal
1/2 cup M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies
Canned frosting or decorating gel (optional)
1. Clean, then coat inside of plastic eggs with cooking spray. Set aside.
2. In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
3. Add KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated.
4. Using greased hands, firmly press 1/4 cup of the cereal mixture into each plastic egg half. Use fingers to make hollow center in each half. Remove from molds. Place on wax paper. Cool slightly.
5. Place about 6 M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies in one half of each egg. Gently press two halves of each egg together until they stick. Cool completely.
6. Decorate with frosting and additional M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies (if desired). Best if served the same day.
MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS: Follow step 1 above. In microwave-safe bowl heat butter and marshmallows on HIGH for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Follow steps 3 through 6 above. Microwave cooking times may vary.

SUBJECTS: PM's campaign in Western Sydney
Presenter:…Christopher Pyne in our Adelaide studios
Hon Christopher Pyne MP: Good morning.
Presenter: And Mark Butler Labor MP for Port Adelaide and Minister for Mental Health and Ageing and Social inclusion, Mark Butler, Minister welcome to our studios as well.
Mark Butler: Good Morning good to be here.
Presenter: To the two of you, the Rooty Hill experiment, Mark Butler, not to put too fine a point on it. Is this a sign of a Party that thinks it's rooted?
Butler: There are so many different sort of double entendres you can do with this place. I stay at the Penrith Panthers when I'm in Western Sydney cause I'm not sure I could check into the Rooty Hill RSL with a straight face. It just conjures up all these sort of Carry on films and Benny Hill episodes and Carry On Governing filmed at the Rooty Hill RSL.
Presenter: Which by the way is apparently very up-market. It has about seven restaurants and they have Alaskan Crab on there and all sort of gear.
Pyne: Alaskan Crab! Where do they get that from, Alaska I assume, fly it in for the Prime Minister.
Butler: Gee you're sharp
Pyne: Yeah, maybe it's a new menu for the Prime Minister.
Presenter: What aren't the people of the western suburbs allowed to enjoy good food Chris Pyne.
Pyne: Well, it's extraordinary, I've never even heard of Alaskan Salmon or whatever it's called.
Presenter: Sorry Mark Butler you were saying…
Butler: I can't remember what I, I think I was alluding to Carry On films.
Presenter: Well you were. Jump in.
Butler: I don't think this is unusual at all. I mean I don't think people expect their Prime Minister, whether it's a Liberal or a Labor Prime Minister to spend their time hauled up in Canberra reading papers. I mean there is naturally Cabinet meetings every week and there are parliamentary sitting weeks for half of the year or there about and there is the sort of slog work that you do as a member of a Government either a Minister or Prime Minister. But people expect you to be out talking to people in different parts of the country. The Prime Minister was here in Adelaide for a couple of days last week and she'll be in Western Sydney next week. I mean this is a big community about twice the size of Adelaide, 2.2 million people, a tenth of the population of Australia, Tony Abbott's there all the time. Prime, anyone who wanted to be Prime Minister would visit Brisbane regularly, Western Sydney regularly, Perth regularly.
Presenter: So Chris Pyne, what is your view of this? Are you a little bit worried that the PM is going to the Western suburbs?
Pyne: Well we're not worried about it because what it means is that the Prime Minister is sandbagging 12 per cent margin Labor seats. If anybody should be worried about it would be the Labor Party. The Rooty Hill RSL is 45 minutes drive from Kirribilli House. Now it took me about 35 minutes to drive here today from Wattle Park so you'd think that it's quite obviously a stunt on behalf of the Prime Minister. It's nice that she's discovered that Western Australia counts.
Presenter: Western Sydney I imagine you mean.
Pyne: Sorry, Western Sydney counts, but the truth is it's all very late in the piece. It smells to me like the campaign in 2010 when we had the declaration that we were going to see 'Real Julia' rather than fake Julia now we've got Governing days and Campaigning days , people will remember 'Moving Forward' was a slogan at one stage now we have 'Modern Families'.
Presenter: The Prime Minister did say you would know the days that were governing days and the days that were campaigning days, when she announced the election date.
Pyne: It all sounds a bit trite to me and I think the people of Western Sydney will be delighted, I assume, that the Prime Minister now recognises that their votes count. I think it's a bit like, I think it's a bit late for her to be discovering Western Sydney.
Presenter: But is it a problem for the Coalition that essentially your agenda is a negative one. That is stop the boats..
Pyne: No.
Presenter: … stop the Labor … the Carbon Tax and stop the mining tax. It's a negative agenda.
Pyne: No, it's not a negative agenda, in fact, quite the opposite. It's about reducing cost of living by getting rid of the carbon tax. It's about protecting people's job security by abolishing the mining tax and the carbon tax. It's about getting the economy back under control by living within our means and it's about protecting our borders through strong border protection. They're the issues that people in Western Sydney care about.
Presenter: Mark Butler, whether it's negative or positive, it's an agenda that's working. What are you going to do to turn this around?
Butler: Well, as I think we talked about last week, I think we've been shown to be competitive when we talk about policies that matter to people out in the community rather than focussing on ourselves and I was pretty frank last week when I said I think we have focussed too much on ourselves. We have allowed too many people to talk to the media about internal matters of the ALP rather than things that matter to pensioners and to families and to people out in the community. I think if we get back focussed on that, we can be competitive. We've shown that.
Presenter: So when you are out campaigning, you have being doing a bit of that lately – we can see that from your tweets – what are you saying that is resonating with people, that you think "Ah! I'm bringing them back on this one". What is it? What's the message?
Butler: Well, most of work I do out in the community is associated with my portfolios of ageing, and mental health and more recently over the last few weeks, housing and homelessness which have been added to my portfolios so you know, I've met with a couple of organisations this week about the way in which the National Disability Insurance Scheme is going to impact on ageing and on mental health and people are really interested in that. They don't ask me about Leadership issues or things like that. They want to know about what the design of the NDIS is going to look like. Yesterday I was at an engineering firm with Steve Georganis and Greg Combet, in my electorate. A very big engineering firm delivering supplies to the air warfare destroyer to renewable energy projects. They want to talk about the jobs plan we announced. This is … I think this idea that you are either governing or campaigning and it's a black and white distinction.
Presenter: You're always …
Pyne: That's what the Prime Minister said.
Butler: As part of governing, you've got to be out there talking to people about policies. That's how you develop good policies and how you make sure that they're best directed to achieve the objectives you want to achieve.
Pyne: That was the Prime Minister that said that you'd know the days that we're governing and the days that we're campaigning. So the Prime Minister's created this false dichotomy again, in the same way she did create "real Julia" and "fake Julia". Now, if the Prime Minister would simply focus on good government and good policy rather than fighting off Kevin Rudd all the time and looking so inwardly focussed, I think the public would be relieved and she wouldn't need to go to have this stunt where she spend days in Rooty Hill which is 45 minutes drive from where she usually sleeps.
Butler: No the point I was making though is that this argument – the moment you step out of Canberra, you are campaigning is a false idea. I mean …
Presenter: But should the tax payers be paying the accommodation bills in Rooty Hill? If it's a campaign matter?
Butler: I don't think it is. To say that every time you step out of your formal setting as a Prime Minister or Minister you're campaigning is I think a false idea. I mean, I've spent the last two and half years travelling the country talking to older Australians about aged care needs, talking to people about mental health needs. That is part of the job of a Minister, it's not necessarily campaigning.
Presenter: Mark Butler, thank you for coming in to the studios, this morning. Labor MP for Port Adelaide, Minister for Mental Health. Christopher Pyne Liberal MP for Sturt, Manager of Opposition Business in the House and Shadow Minister for Education thank you for coming in to our studios.
Pyne: Pleasure.
