The purple fuzzies on your Andrea is the new leaf buds, or better, possible new flower buds. I can't tell clearly from the photo. If they are clust of rounded purple, then they are flower buds; if they are pointed , then they are leaf buds. With the temp. your have outside, I would recommend move your Andrea outside. She will be much happier and healthier being a "wild" girl feel the nature and under the Sun ray... |
olympia gardener : It looks like they ARE pointed so that is a let down, are you sure this means they are definitely leaves? they look quite different than the new growth I showed in the second picture from the bottom of my original post. Also, just to clear things up those were the estimated temperatures I gave of the current environment (a.k.a my room) The outside temps are much more volatile ranging from 70's to 80's in the day and 40's to 50's at night. Definitely not suitable for my girl Andrea. Plus, the sun hasn't been out much the past few days so she has been getting a lot of good light from my CFL set up. I am ready for her to flower! If you or anyone could answer my other questions.... I took the liberty of concluding that I definitely have powdery mildew so I applied a water based mixture of: a tiny bit of vegetable oil and baking soda with the tiniest drop of antibacterial soap. What do you guys think? I am going to Lowes to see if I can grab some fungicide that will kill it off all-together. Comments and suggestions are appreciated! Thanks, |

My temps are the same and my citrus are starting to flourish! They survived winters lows of 36F. If you are concerned with the low night time temps just bring your gal inside for the night. My temps get into the 50's every night with no problems. If you want to grow inside your going to need better lights than that. When you use indoor lights you want LUMENS. You can go by watts but I have known people to use 500w lights with less than 20k lumens. I have a 100w floro with 15k lumens that I would use to keep my mother plant alive for cloning. I used to flower with two(2) 1000w Combo lights that pushed a total of over 300k Lumens (Thats 300,000). That many lumens still did not deliver the results I was looking for, anyways...I would put her outside during the day as the sun has something that no light can really duplicate. The temps you speak of are more than good enough. Other than that I dont see anything wrong with your plant other than maybe changing up your feeding and watering schedule. I dont know. Your plant looks good to me:-) |

I would not worry about the white spots. Unless someone thinks otherwise, I would say that is fertilizer or pesticide stains and will keep reappearing. A nice tree by the way:-) Mike |
I'm with Mike; doesn't look like anything to stress about... unless..it is salt.. are you by any chance watering your plant with water from a water softener? You would be surprised how common that is with houseplants. Water softeners replace "hard" minerals with NaCl.. table salt; and that is poison to plants. As for the "broken" top, I would just prune it below the break; citrus are soooo resilient, you will be rewarded with new branches. |
Hey thanks guys. Just to be safe I bought some Daconil fungicide. I sprayed it down tonight so I am hoping that will get rid of the white fuzz. Other than that all is well. Thank you meyermike and blazeaglory for your comments and suggestions. Right now I see no problem with my light set up so I am not changing it but if I notice that the plant isn't progressing by next week i will figure something out. What would you say a good feeding and watering schedule is? I was told it is good to fert. every two months and as for watering I just water heavy and then wait till the soil is nearly dry for my next watering.... comments? concerns? |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Thu, May 10, 12 at 21:25
How you fertilize in containers is not cut and dry. If you buy one that is bagged for container plants, the directions should be on there to be safe. As for the frequency? Many times it can depend on something as simple as the mix you use. As for in-ground, I would follow as John suggests since I have seen his beautiful trees. If you would like to keep them that green, call your water supply company and ask them for the pH. If you are using rain water, then you are golden without vinegar. Mike |
Thank you john and mike, you both put my worries aside. I would love to make this thread last and post pictures periodically. Please bookmark my page and check back from time to time. I will probably have more questions and I can't imagine my tree blooming any later than a month or so. So I will definitely have pictures up when that happens. For now I am going to stick to watering every 3-6 days depending on soil moistness. I will also fertilize as needed. If I start to see some yellowing I will know I need to fertilize. Otherwise I will stick to my regimen of every 1-2 months depending on the season. Thanks guys, |
Fertilizer monitoring for Meyers is relatively easy; no need to wait until you see yellowing leaves. If your Meyer is adequately fertilized, the new growth will at first be slightly red/purple color; and later will be light green, then darker green. If you over fertilize, the new growth may be a bit twisted; and it will attract aphids; if you under fertilize the new leaves will be lighter green and the leaf size will be smaller. There are different concepts of fertilizing; some fertilize 3 or 4 times per year; and others every time they water... sometimes called "weakly weekly". If your Meyers are in ground and are garden trees, they will likely benefit from added foliar fert every 15 day; they are poor competitors with grass and other plants stealing the nutrients you thought you were giving to your lemons. |
John, What great pieces of information. Thank you. As you can see in the pictures I posted, my plant in in a pot in my room so all the fertilizer is going towards the plant. The pot is filled with soil about 1.5 feet high and 1.5 feet wide. What do you think an adequate amount of fertilizer would be for this type of container? It seems to be happy with the amount I gave it but that was only a day ago and I will be waiting a few more days before I water it again. The blood meal is strictly nitrogen and the Jobes is very little nitrogen and more phosphorus and potassium so I use both, making sure to under-do the blood meal since the jobes has some nitrogen too. I just dont know when I will need to fertilize again. -Doc Citrus |
My Meyer, and the others, have been out since early march and at that time we had nights in the 40's. I never lost sleep and they all have flushed new growth and bloomed several times. In fact the Meyer has had 3 separate bloom periods already Doc, I guarantee if you put it outside and get some real sun and good humidity it will bloom for you. Mike |
The general wisdom of citrus fertilizer is a 5-1-3 NPK ratio; for producing Meyers I find you need to bump up the P and K a bit... maybe 6-2-4; and they also need occasional Magnesium, a little Calcium, Iron and Zinc; most foliar ferts take care of those. |
mksmth - I put the plant out today and in less than an hour the top looked to be wilting in the sun. I sprayed the entire tree down with plain water to keep it from burning up but the top was a goner. I ended up doing as someone suggested earlier, and cut the top off (this was the part that I had mended) I cut it right below the broken area. I still have it sitting out there now so I hope the rest of the plant can handle it. It is much shorter now without that top long branch. Johnmerr - I used a granulated fertilizer so I don't supplement mag, cal, iron, or zinc. is there any product you know that has only these elements? |
Don't know the answer to that; I use a mix of chelated minerals for my field trees, applied twice per year; for my garden trees I use Bayer Bayfolan Forte foliar every 15 days. I also put Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt) on my garden trees a couple times per year, at the same time I put it on my roses. BTW, the Meyer is most sensitive to light changes; often dropping most or all of its leaves, to be replaced with new leaves better "designed" for the new light condition. Best when moving the plant outside to put it in shade for 2 weeks; then part shade for 2 weeks; then to full sun. Reverse this in the Fall when bringing it in. |

I thought it is Meyer . It is supposed to be put out in stages, to get used to the light. |

When you posted yesterday you mentioned having had the tree six days. In this amount of time you have: "fertilized for the first time yesterday" I mention these things because I fear you are going to micro-manage this tree to death, killing it with kindness so to speak. Trees don't need or benefit from this degree of fuss- the self diagnosis and knee jerk response of spraying it down with Daconil just because you thought you had powdery mildew... well, it boggles my mind. Never treat anything with anything until you have a firm diagnosis and/or identification of what the problem is. Nothing is going to happen to this tree so quickly that you can't take the time to be certain that your actions are 1)necessary and 2)correct. Post and ask questions but stop fussing!! |
- Posted by blazeaglory 10 SZ22 OC Ca (My Page) on Sat, May 12, 12 at 11:28
I agree with cearbhail. Powdery Mildew is not bad. I think you can just wipe it off. Oragnocide works good as a preventative and it is safer than Daconil. I was the same way a couple years ago. I micro managed a couple of my trees to half death. Its no big deal but the best thing to do is follow a schedule of watering and fertilizing with the best methods to prevent disease by using PREVENTATIVE methods. Organocide is one small step because it stays on the plant for a while. There is more but Ill let the pros handle that;-) As for micro nutes. Alot of general water soluble ferts have micros and you can get a foliage spray. This is a good foliage spray: http://www.homedepot.com/buy/outdoors-garden-center-lawn-plant-care-shrub-tree-fertilizers/1-pint-citrus-nutritional-spray-125242.html And here is a good water soluble general fertilizer: http://www.sunshinegardensfl.com/servlet/the-Fertilizers/Categories These are just suggestions but you get the idea. A granule fertilizer for main feeding (If you choose) and an all purpose fertilizer with micro nutes, or a fertilizer with just micro nutes, to pick up the rest of your plants needs. This is just a suggestion so please dont take this as a DO WHAT I SAY OR ELSE thing...hehehe You have to listen to your plant and adjust to its needs. Also, come here when you have problems and these people will set you straight:-) |
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I know I am "micro-managing" my plant but I want it to be the best and healthiest plant it can be. The way I am adapting it to outside is I have it inside overnight, and for the first couple hours of the day when the sun shines through my window and it also gets light from my CFL setup. Then midway through the day I bring it outside in the sun to get a nice sun-bath, then back in over night. I watered her today. I am seeing a bunch of new growth now! I am very excited. Here she is from a few hours ago today: |
Isuggest you are over feeding it... or fitting with your doting philosophy, are you putting plant shine on the leaves? My suggestion.. don't do anything to it for awhile except water it and move it gradually into full sun. If every one of my 8,000 trees looked that healthy, I would be a happy guy. My other, SERIOUS suggestion would be to lose the stake. Meyers don't need support; and if you DO support them, they will likely break down the road. John |
John, Thank you for your suggestions. I just removed the steak and it didn't really change much so I am happy that my tree can stand oh her own. As for plant shine, haha, no I don't even know what that is. My plant is just shiny in the sun :) it could also be some of the fungicide still on the leaves although I washed a lot of that off with plain water. I don't think I am overfeeding the plant. There are no signs that I am doing so. I haven't lost a single leaf yet and there is no yellowing or leaf burn. I watered it yesterday after 4 days of no water and 2 days in the hot sun, which sucked the soil dry. I read, and follow a watering schedule that lets me water heavily and then wait until the soil is nearly dry. I use my pointer finger or pinky as an indicator, sticking it down into the soil to feel how moist it is. Oh by the way... what is this doting philosophy you speak of? |
Hey fellas, Remember that spout of new growth from my first post? Well its even bigger now :) check it out, it also has a little friend popping out right next to it: In this next picture you can see the extra little guys popping out. And here are a few more spots where I have noticed new growth: and this one |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (email@example.com) on Mon, May 14, 12 at 9:13
That's awesome. I am very happy for you! It can be very exciting for sure. Mike |
Thanks Mike! I will be keeping everyone up to date. Hopefully I can post some beautiful flowers soon! Check out these pictures I took with weird effects on the plant, they are kindof cool: and this one: |
I also bought my mom a miniature rose bush, (pink) for mothers day. In my opinion, much better than flower cuttings that just die shortly (wasted money). It will be cloudy and rainy the next few days so I brought it inside to enjoy my mini-sun-room: And let's not forget the "lucky bamboo" this is my mom's too. She nearly let the thing die. I am nursing it back to health: Nothing like a little jungle producing fresh oxygen and sucking up the carbon dioxide in my room :) -Doc Citrus |

Dr. Citrus, understand that you are excited about having a new plant and wanting take best care of it. We all do. Your plant is doing fine. Just leave it alone for now. Let it get use to the new environment, let it grow on its own rate. With the size of the tree you have, soon it will send out flower buds, more excitment uhm. Meanwhile, just relax and enjoy the plant. It will tell you if it needs more fertilizer, more water, or anything else. |
I know I am so excited! (it shows with how many posts I have made) I am doing my best to take a laze-faire approach and I water (IMO) nearly perfectly. She seems to want water every 4-6 days depending on the sun conditions. I don't plan to fertilize for another 2 weeks, at least. I will just keep posting pictures and updates. Whoever is interested can read them and I will just use it as a person log. Thanks, |
Hello all, I have a ton of new growth for you guys. I think they look like little freddie krueger hands: and here is Andrea in full form: Enjoy, |
- Posted by olympia_gardener 5 (My Page) on Wed, May 16, 12 at 13:54
Great pictures. Keep post all you want. I enjoy reading the progress your plant made and your experiences. |
Your plant certainly does look oily. Is that the vegetable oil? Since the stomata of citrus leaves are located almost exclusively on the under surface of the leaves, you'll not be clogging up the works with that vegetable oil, but it sure could attract dust and dirt. I would also be very careful about exposing an oily plant to full outdoor mid-day sunlight. If you sprayed a mixture of oil on both surfaces of the leaves, I'd suggest that you do a bit of cleaning with a soft, warm soapy cloth or sponge. It is imperative that the stomata work efficiently and such a thick vegetable coating could pose problems. By the way, a COMMERCIAL horticultural oil is what I was going to suggest if the stuff on your citrus turned out to be powdery mildew. I really couldn't tell one way or the other. Usually, hard water stains can be rubbed away with a soft cloth moistened with a bit of vinegar water. Put one hand under the leaf to support it while you gently rub with the other. Neem oil is a great option for PM. It not only protects your plant from infection but can cure the disease. |
Fellas, Thanks for the replies. Olympia, I will be posting plenty more picture. Thanks for stopping by. Rhizo, for some reason my plant leaves have stayed shiny, I don't know why. They have been wiped with warm water multiple times, sprayed with plain clean water numberous times as well and when I applied the vegetable oil solution, it wasn't too much vegie oil. I think they are fine. I will be spraying the leaves with a spray bottle and wiping them down more over the next few weeks so I am sure there won't be any problem. -Doc Citrus |
I had my girl Andrea (The Lemon Tree) out all day yesterday soaking up that sun and I even left her out overnight! I walked outside and it was cooooooold this morning. But Andrea looked unscathed and stronger than ever, so I placed her where she could get full sun all day long. She is really feeling good (I think). I will be putting some more fertilizer in there and watering her tomorrow, or possibly Saturday depending how moist the soil is. Here are a few pictures I took the first one is of the tree outside and the rest are some cool pictures of the tree and the rose bush I got my mom for mothers day: |
Okay Guys, Here are some more updates on the new growth. I am literally seeing new little green fuzzies comming out of everywhere. I fertilized and watered yesterday. I have noticed the major weight change that occurs from when you first water the plant and its heavy to when she drinks up all the water and feels so much lighter: I'll be sure to send some more interesting pictures soon. BTW I have been giving my tree more than 12 hours of light for the past 2 days: I have only seen benefits so please tell me if I will be keeping her in vegetation or if this is fine and she will still flower and everything. Thanks, |

Dude, methinks you need a girlfriend more than a tree... lol... |
EURIKA! FLOWERS!! I just used a Q-Tip to pollinate the few that were open. I am sure more will open up soon. I just got back from being away for the weekend and there they were, just as I assumed they would be! How long till lemons now? I also have brownish purplish hairs growing out of the very tips of multiple new growth areas and I am not sure what they are. Any ideas? |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Jun 4, 12 at 8:44
Well, you are doing a wonderful job Doc! Look at how long them branches are. Mine get cut off at the path by any insect that feels like teasing me. The other day, it was earwigs that cut off all my new growth. You should be proud of yourself, especially indoors since spider mites can be worst. When will you put them outdoors, or do you? I think it very nice to see the excitement you share with us. Mike |
Mike, Your comments are always appreciated. Thank You. I put the tree outside for a few days when it was very sunny and I found that all it did was make the new growth wilt or hang down from the intensity of the sun. I also recieved a nice infestation of gnats (which I hope cant harm the tree) They seem to be sticking to roaming around the soil, with an occasional few on some leaves. They don't seem to be eating the leaves or to be harmful at all for that matter. They are most likely attracted to my organic ferts and I assume they are eating some of it, which is the only problem I see currently. Other than that, I just went over the other flower or two that popped open today with a Q-Tip to pollinate everything. I want to make sure those flowers become lemons! I don't see any true benefit of putting "MY" meyer lemon tree outside as it has done much better inside. It receives partial sunlight through my window as well as 4 CFL's which almost cover the entire light spectrum. I have found that the tree likes to be fertilized every time I water it and I water every 4-5 days depending on how dry the soil gets. I am very happy with the progress so far and I don't see a need to change my strategy anytime soon. Thanks, |
Hello All! Here is an update. I have pictures of the mini lemons from two different angles. Let me know how it looks and if everything is as it should be: I removed a bud or two that were late bloomers and one or two also fell off. These are the ones left. I have 3 that looks to be lemons for sure (2 I am positive, one is a little smaller). I am still waiting for that last flower to completely fall off and then I will ave 4 little lemons HOPEFULLY!!! I am very excited for these puppies to start blowing up! Thanks, |
I just bought a Meyer Lemon Tree 10 days ago and just read your post and the follow ups. What happened after June 10th? My tree is at about the same stage as your last photo. Very curious. Lacey |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sun, Jul 22, 12 at 16:20
Good for you! Funny thing was that as I was looking through some older threads, I spotted this one just a couple of hours ago and wondered how you and your trees were doing! What a surprise to see you come back and post after thinking of you.. Thanks for updating us and for being as excited as many of us are here. Hello Lacey. Mike_0) |
Hey Mike, Hey Lacey, It has been ages since I have been on here but the good news is one of those little things turned into a lemon.... It's still growing and looks like it has some time before it turns yellow but as a side note I now have about a hundred or more buds on the tree some of which have already flowered. Take a look at her progress! Enjoy, |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sun, Sep 2, 12 at 19:54
Doc Citrus! If that is what your tree looks like for just growing under lights, then you the man! I am very proud of you. In fact, even if you just brought it inside, it still is a very beautiful tree and beautiful color. Must smell heavenly. Bravo and thanks for thinking of us:-) Mike |
Mike, I just brought it in about a week ago but I actually don't enjoy the smell of the flowers to much. They definitely don't smell lemony. They smell like pollen more than anything, there is a hint of sweetness but whatever.... it is brightening up my place and gives me some fresh oxygen. I am actually having a major issue with gnats. Could you recommend anything? -Doc Citrus |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sun, Sep 2, 12 at 20:43
Hey Doc. The only way I was able to get rid of gnats was to change my soil mix completely, or water with a mild organic soap along with Neem Oil. It would take about 3 waterings over a 3 week period to see them disappear after the watering technique. If they were plants you did not plan on eating, I would say water them with the Bayer Disease and Pest control before you bring it in, and to not see after that again. They say that over watering is the main cause, but they come no matter what you do and are impossible to rid of unless action is taken. Have a great night. Mike:-) |
Ive had luck with Safer organic soap spray for the same problem. You could try spraying the soil about once a day or so until they are gone, you don't need to soak the soil or anything, just a few pumps, the gnat larvae are very close to the top of the soil feeding on the roots of your tree. this pared with letting the soil dry out a little will surely end your soil gnat issue. You may add some stick yellow fly paper for good measure, this will warn you of any new pests that may arrive too. |
- Posted by ssmdgardener 7a (My Page) on Mon, Sep 3, 12 at 13:41
Doc, when you put your tree outside, did you acclimate it to the sun by first putting it in full shade? Like Mike said, I've had huge problems with fungus gnats with commercial potting mixes. They're not an issue at all with the gritty mix. |
gardener, Nope, I threw it right into full sun. It did very well too. Although that was the case with my tree I wouldn't advise you to do that since everyone cautions against it. Also, I new strategy for the bugs: I put a ton of cellophane wrap over the top of the pot and wrapped in around the lowest point of the trunk. hopefully this will eventually kill the bugs. I will leave it on for about a week and then check under there. And don't worry I watered the tree yesterday, she won't need much water since it isn't in the hot sun anymore and it will be getting colder soon. And thank you Ryan and Mike for the suggestions. -Doc Citrus |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (email@example.com) on Mon, Sep 3, 12 at 18:58
Now that sounds like an idea! Please, come back and let us know if that works for you Doc Citrus. I am very curious. I hope it does. Mike |
Hey fellas, I took some better pictures and you can also see my "bug cover rig" By the way the bugs have died down quite a bit. I can't image hot many are under that cellophane. Enjoy, |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (email@example.com) on Fri, Sep 7, 12 at 10:48
Hey, not bad Doc Citrus! Now, I am going to keep my fingers crossed and hope they don't find an exit stragety out the bottom air drain holes. They are smart little buggers and find all kinds of ways to survive or get out. Good luck! Mike |
Gosh, I can't help but wonder just how the root system is going to 'breathe' in that kind of situation!! I appreciate that your theory is to smother the fungus gnat larvae, but you are forgetting one BIG concept. Roots absolutely must have access to the atmosphere. Roots require free access to oxygen (which they obtain from a porous soil system) in order to survive. Roots also respire...give off CO2 which must be allowed to escape the soil system or toxic levels will build up. That is what is called the 'gas exchange' we often talk about as being so important in a good potting mix (or outdoor soil). Also, our container plants evaporate a great deal of water from the surface of the soil. That process is important. I strongly urge that you take a good look at your potting mix and your watering practices as the two causes of a fungus gnat population. Without problems in one or both, the fungus gnats would cease to be interested. As I recall, you are a 'micro-manager' of your plants. People who do that to their plants often complain about fungus gnats. If you are not going to change your potting mix into something highly porous and coarse textured, you should visit the garden center soon and pick up either mosquito dunks OR another form of larvacide called Gnatrol. Mosquito dunks contain the same active ingredient as the Gnatrol, a biological agent that targets ONLY the larva of certain insects such as fungus gnats, mosquitoes, black flies, etc. It's safe to use in your home and on your plants, even if you intend harvest citrus. Soak a few little pieces of the dunks in your watering can for several hours or over night. Use that water when it's time to water your plant. No extra watering please; I suspect that that is part of your problem. But, the permanent solution to your problem is to change your potting mix. Most of who use a very porous potting medium never see a fungus gnat. Even if you reduce your watering frequency, fungus gnat larvae can thrive in a dense, peaty medium. Kill the larvae with the Bt-Israelensis (gnatrol or dunks), not a general pesticide. But even that is merely a stop-gap measure, and not a permanent solution. I suggest that you take your plant outside when you release it from all of that plastic wrap. I suspect that you might have created a big gnat nursery in there...with the larvae developing into adults who lay more eggs, etc. |
Yup, Rhizo is exactly correct, cannot agree more. Unless somehow the toxic gasses build up killing the pests under the wrap. Even if this did happen, your approach to deal with the gnats is not a good one as is can possibly damage/kill the tree too. Not to mention they can access the soil from the bottom drainage holes too! I don't agree with the need to change your soil, It wont hurt if you did but, I don't think its necessary. What you do need to do is eliminate the pests not cover them and hope they go away, they surely will not. Gnatrol is a good product as is the mosquito dunk, I have used mosquito dunks with success on my citrus in the winter for gnats. However, these only deal with the larvae though, if you use this product you must use something else for the adults. Ill recommend you this again as I have battled them successfully before: Get a bottle of insect killing soap spray surface once every few days until gone. This kills larvae and on contact adults too and yellow stick tape catches adults in the mean time let the soil surface try out. |
Okay fellas, I took the cellophane off and swished the soil around a bit outside. Then I watered the tree and brought it back in. I am hoping the bugs will just go away lol. I don't have the cash right now to buy the pesticides nor would I know where to buy them. Thanks, |
This thread is hilarious, I love the enthusiasm. It looks like a tragic love story unfolding. "Loved to Death" by Doc Citrus. Patience Grasshopper. |

Hi, We have had some very hot weather here this summer. I just noticed my lemons (which are for the most part still green) have oval yellow spots on one side of them. In some cases the yellow spot has started to decay the fruit. What could this be? |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Sun, Sep 30, 12 at 16:24
citrusnewby, why don't you start your own thread. Your question is entirely different than the original poster's thread. That way, you can have your answers all in your own message thread, and be notified of answers coming your way. Patty S. |
Hey All, So my meyer lemon tree is doing great. I have a question though, I have a lemon that was produced about 3 months ago and is still green. It's growth had seemed to slow and during this time I had a ton of new flowers, growth, and now about 40 small, solid lemons coming along. Is this normal to have more lemons produced before the one from an earlier flowering has ripened? Thanks, |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Sun, Oct 21, 12 at 1:10
Yes, perfectly normal with lemons. The lemon cultivar in general will have all 3 on a tree at one time - flowers, young fruit and ripening fruit. Quite normal for lemons. Patty S. |
Thank you patty. This lemon is taking forever to ripen. I can't wait to eat it Doc Citrus |
Hey! So my lemon is nearly ripe now. I suspect only a few more weeks. It has taken a LONG time! I am so excited! I went on break for a few weeks and right before I left I gave my tree double watering with no nutrients. When I came back there had been a lot of new growth and color development in the big guy/girl. I also have a neighbor (an older lady) who has had it rough (her husband dying, her daughter has cancer, a few of her dogs died; etc.) and I would always talk to her about plants when I went out back, on the deck, at my mom's house. They are both very kind, her and the daughter, but I don't know them all that well. Anyway, this christmas/channukah, my mom received this box on the doorstep, and what was it? A mineola tangelo tree (3 years old from four-winds). How sick? So I have some pictures of the Meyer, which I have had for about 7 month or more now and a picture of the new little gal, Susane (Mineola Tangelo): Susane (mineola tangelo - This is either a tangerine crossed with a pumelo OR a manderine orange crossed with a grapefruit) Maybe someone can make heads or tails of it. I have read about these and know about their non-self-pollinating characteristic. I will hopefully be able to pollinate it with my meyer. We will see. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the New Year! Happy 2013, |

Hi Doc Citrus- I'm super impressed with the progress of your tree! How are things still going in 2013? Do you have Andrea outside this summer? I am interested in your grow lights- can you get them at a standard store like ACE or did you have to find them specially online or at plant store? Thanks for the post and pictures! |

Wheat Triton High-Back Chair
I bought one of these chairs for my living room and went back to get another because of the comfort. Most comfortable chair Ive bought recently. I have purchased chairs from other major box stores and they were not comfortable or just did not last. This chair would work great in anyroom. I do wish it came is other colors.
May 23, 2012
Love this chair!
This chair is a nice addition to our living area. It has simple, yet elegant lines and is very inviting as a reading chair.

Love these chairs!
These chairs are beautiful. We able to get 2 chairs for less than the cost of 1 from our interior decorator. Plus, I had the fun of a shopping date with my wife! They are perfect for bedroom or casual chairs. I am not sure how they would hold up under heavy use.

Awesome Unique Shape
We just bought two of these chairs for our family room and they are beautiful! They are quite tall but fit nicely in the corner of our large room (with high ceilings) and make a little reading nook. The seats are comfortable yet firm enough to (hopefully) provide years of support. While installing the legs I found the threading in one of the holes that should accept the screws was missing. I'll be looking into getting a replacement leg, although was still able to install with one missing screw for the time being. I've been searching for the right shape armchair to complement our home's traditional / contemporary design - and these do the trick! Although the color is a very nice neutral selection, we'll be reupholstering ours to give them a bit more of a unique design. Can't wait to see the finished product!

Comfortable Chair
I purchased this chair to use in the sitting area of my master bedroom. The color is neutral and will go with almost any color scheme. The chair is well made. It's a nice, sturdy, comfortable "sit". Will be very comfortable to sit and read or meditate.
August 20, 2011
Pictures don't do the chair justice
These chairs are great. I bought two for my living room and I defnitely don't think the pictures do it any justice. I bought them from the store and would never have even considered this chair if just seeing it on line. It is way more comfortable then it looks! They are made of a good fabric and will clean up easy when my kids get something on them (because I know they will!).
August 14, 2011
Great chair
I just bought this chair on sale and it's lovely however please note that the color is much more mustard looking than the cream color shown in the pictures provided. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite match my bedroom which is more cream colored!
Also, it was easy to build but it's quite bulky and so be sure to bring a van, SUV, truck etc. when picking it up from the store. I also recommend you build it in the room you want it in since the full chair may not fit through doorways if the legs are put on it.

Goldeneye 007: Reloaded has been leaking a lot of information to the press. Following yesterday's trailer, which revealed the special objective-based MI6 mode, comes a large set of new screenshots that show off the sharper visuals you can expect from the re-mastered version coming to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. While the Wii game Reloaded is based on didn't look bad by any means, the newly HD-ized iteration of GoldenEye looks downright flashy - that's great for fans of the game, but we think Mr. Bond would try to exercise a bit more discretion.
Above: More GoldenEye eye candy here
Agent 007 has come a long way since his days on the N64, but a few popular locations from the classic shooter remain. The bathroom was a popular ambush spot in the map Facility, but can you name any of the other locations? For more info check our recent Goldeneye 007: Reloaded preview, but keep your sights on the full-game, which is planned for release this fall.

Cents & Sensibility: A Fond Farewell over Dinner |
Cents & Sensibility: A Fond Farewell over Dinner As our financialista signs off on her final column, she also shares some tips for fitting dining out into even the most frugal of lifestyles. What does the word "budget" mean to you? Do you cringe when you hear it, thinking of ending your spontaneous dinners at your favorite restaurants and adopting a new habit of packing your lunch? No more cute shoes and Starbucks runs? If so, then you are like most people! But to me and in my financial coaching practice, budget means nothing more than an on-paper look at where your money is going. Most of my clients come to me with needs including debt-reduction advice and help with saving more money. They've done the basic budgeting in their head and know there is extra money somewhere to put away, but they struggle to find it. The thing is, when they add up all the "fixed" stuff like rent/mortgage, utilities, car payment, other loans, childcare, etc, and compare that number with the amount of money coming in, many people are sad and discouraged to see what "should" be leftover. More often than not, the process usually stalls out there with feelings of poor willpower and negative self-talk. It is at this point that I remind clients they aren't counting the other little things that are also needs in our everyday lifestyle. Haircuts, oil changes, personal care items, house cleaning, gas money, and — yes — food. Most people do have an amount of money each month that they could put toward debt reduction or savings without really feeling a pinch to their accustomed lifestyle, but it isn't as much as it initially appears. So once you have all the predictable bills down that won't go away without major changes, take a look at your other expenditures. You probably will be pleasantly surprised to learn that even when you factor in such indulgences as date night at Nada or your daily stop at Coffee Emporium, you still will be able to find that little bit of extra money. And even if it is only $50 per month, if you make saving it automatic through payroll deduction or auto-transfer from your bank, you will be surprised at how quickly you will see a difference. Then as you acquire little windfalls like tax refunds, a raise at work or some other bonus, you will be more inclined to put some of that money toward your goal, getting you there even quicker. So enjoy your gastronomic pleasures, knowing that you still can stick to a budget and achieve your financial goals. As some of my readers know, I've had some wonderful changes in my personal life that have led to me becoming only a part-time resident of Cincinnati. I have followed my heart with a move to Chicago, and while my business continues to thrive and grow in Cincinnati, the editors of Cincy Chic have decided to stick with their emphasis on local people, products and services and switch to a finance columnist who is a full-time Cincinnati resident and who is able to write weekly. You will see this new column in the May 10 Weekend Getaway issue. I'd like to take a moment to thank my loyal readers and ask you to please keep in touch. I will be continuing my writing and posting it to my blog, and I also have a monthly newsletter that you can subscribe to via my Web site. I have delighted in sharing financial wisdom with the Cincy Chic family, and I am grateful to Amy Storer-Scalia and Linda Palacios for giving me the opportunity! I'll leave you with a favorite nugget of wisdom from Ray Charles: "Live every day like it's your last, 'cause one day you're gonna be right." Carpe diem! More articles by this author

Isom trial testimony focuses on evidence list
BY Teresa Auch Schultz email@example.com January 22, 2013 6:16PM
Kevin Isom. | Provided Photo~Sun-Times Media
Updated: February 24, 2013 6:26AM
Prosecutors spent Tuesday continuing to lay out the path of evidence in the Kevin Isom capital murder case and fighting to get some of the evidence admitted.
For most of this 14th day of testimony, the focus was on evidence sent to the Lake County Crime Laboratory and the Indiana State Police Crime Laboratory in Lowell. Defense attorney Casey McCloskey argued against a 13-page list of evidence from the state police showing who all had accessed it and when.
McCloskey said the list included several pieces of evidence that had not even been talked about at trial, such as a handwriting sample from his client, and that there was no guarantee the evidence would ever be introduced.
Lake Coutny Superior Court Judge Thomas Stefaniak Jr. agreed, saying he wouldn't even submit the list on the condition the evidence was submitted.
"It's putting the cart before the horse," the judge said.
Deputy prosecutor Michelle Jatkiewicz redacted some of the evidence from the list and said that McCloskey was trying to create a "catch-22" of keeping the chain of evidence from being submitted prior to the evidence when she has to establish the chain to get evidence admitted.
Stefaniak eventually let the redacted list in, although he said it could not be published to the jury yet.
Lake County Lt. Henry Hatch, a firearms and tool marks examiner at the Lake County Crime Lab, also testified Tuesday, telling the jury about his process of reviewing bullet shells and guns to determine which gun they came from.
Isom is on trial in the killings of his wife, Cassandra Isom, 40, and her two children, Michael Moore, 16, and Ci'Andria Cole, 13, on Aug. 7, 2007, in their apartment in Gary's Miller neighborhood. He could face the death penalty if convicted. He is also charged with three counts of attempted murder in connection to Gary police who responded to the shootings.

An Interview with Dr. Firas F. Mussa, MD, MS, FACS
Dr. Mussa shares his insights on the future of TEVAR for uncomplicated type B aortic dissection, percutaneous EVAR, and treatment options for CLI.
Will TEVAR be the treatment of choice for uncomplicated type B aortic dissection?
We are heading in that direction. Currently, TEVAR is associated with improved aortic remodeling at 2 years. In the near future, the 5-year results of the INSTEAD trial will be published. This will be a game changer as far as the role of TEVAR in uncomplicated type B aortic dissection. Furthermore, new imaging software dedicated to flow dynamics is going to play a critical role in selecting the appropriate patients for TEVAR. We will also witness a significant reduction in TEVAR-related complications such as stroke and retrograde dissection as a result. I am also very excited about the possible expansion of IRAD (International Registry of Aortic Dissection). This can facilitate data sharing and the development of modern treatment paradigms that can best help our patients.
As smaller devices become available, what kind of changes can we expect in terms of who is performing EVAR and how it is being performed?
I do not expect a major shift in who is performing EVAR just because the sheath size is getting smaller. This is mostly governed by referral patterns and institutional policies. With smaller devices, however, more vascular surgeons are likely to adopt percutaneous EVAR (PEVAR). I believe that vascular surgeons currently lag behind other specialists when it comes to using closure devices in general and for larger sheaths specifically. If this trend continues, I imagine that patients are going to demand the "no incision" aneurysm repair and create another shift in referral away from vascular surgeons. I also believe that PEVAR is associated with faster recovery, less blood loss, and ultra-short length of stay. I anticipate that in the near future, a cutdown will be the exception rather than the rule!
What are the current recommendations for open bypass versus endovascular repair for critical limb ischemia (CLI)?
As of today, for those who have a suitable autologous vein conduit and life expectancy that is more than 2 years, open bypass is superior, more durable, and possibly more cost effective than endovascular intervention. Unfortunately, many of our patients have less than 2 years life expectancy with no suitable vein, so endovascular intervention becomes the default first line of therapy. Having said that, I am an endovascular enthusiast and believe that the below-the-knee (BTK) vascular bed deserves special attention. We are seeing less balloon angioplasty as a standalone therapy for CLI and more drug-eluting stents, drug-coated balloons, atherectomy, retrograde tibial punctures, etc. My personal views are that vascular surgeons need to embrace and validate the newer technologies if they are to remain competitive in this field.
What can be done to avoid poor outcomes for open revascularization if an endovascular treatment has been performed previously?
It makes intuitive sense that repeat intervention is associated with biologically aggressive disease. We have shown that patients who undergo bypass after a failed initial endovascular intervention have worse limb salvage rates; this will be presented at the 2012 Eastern Vascular Society meeting. I think this might be related to the delay or reluctance in offering open bypass in favor of an endovascular approach. Not surprisingly, however, there remains a significant proportion of patients who are first treated with endovascular intervention requiring an open procedure at some point down the line. Anecdotally, the two most problematic patients are those with end-stage renal disease and/or diabetes. One is worse with endovascular (end-stage renal disease), and one is worse with open revascularization (diabetes). Furthermore, medical therapy has undergone significant transformation with high-dose statins and dual antiplatelets; the outcomes of both open and endovascular interventions have somehow improved.
How does plaque characterization guide therapy for patients with asymptomatic carotid disease?
Using FDG-PET MR/CT fusion technology to study "vulnerable" plaque in patients with carotid disease is bound to take off. It picks up inflammation in macrophages inside the plaque as increased signal uptake and superimposes the images from PET with MR or CT scan. We have also shown that statins modify this process in the carotid artery in a dose-dependent manner. With the debate over intervention for asymptomatic carotid disease (CEA and CAS) nowhere near settled, I believe that this imaging modality is the most exciting and the most promising technology to guide therapy. I collaborate with investigators from NYU and Mt. Sinai in using nanoparticles to image hot vascular plaques in a more detailed and accurate way than the traditionally used contrast material. I am super excited about this!
What is the role of the Peripheral Vascular Surgery Society (PVSS)?
Over the past few years, the quality of the meetings has skyrocketed with record attendance, original research presentations, industry support, and the new fellows' program a day before the winter meeting. We meet twice a year: in the winter (ski meeting) and spring (during the SVS). Many of the members of PVSS are division chiefs and leaders in the field on their own merits. It can be summarized that while PVSS maintains the same academic intensity, it is the "younger and hip" version of the SVS.
Why is this group important to young vascular surgeons?
PVSS does a good job preparing young vascular surgeons for future leadership positions within the regional and national societies. For those who choose a career in academics, PVSS is the perfect start. It offers the structure, material, and the variety (committees) without being ultra bureaucratic. I chair the fundraising committee for the PVSS, and it gives me great satisfaction to see our competitiveness today compared to when I was a fellow.
As a fellow, what was one expectation you had about being a vascular surgeon that turned out to be incorrect?
Like most fellows, I had to learn to respect experience and tame my interest in doing big and complex cases with the fact that I needed to gain the confidence of my partners and OR staff. This takes years. I also found that practice building takes time and is no small job. As a fellow, you are not really prepared for the "real thing" as much as you find out when you are an attending. Having said that, I prefer being an attending!

Feb 13, 2013 7:43 PM by Associated Press
DALLAS (AP) - American Airlines and US Airways will merge and create the world's biggest airline. The boards of both companies approved the merger late Wednesday, according to three people close to the situation.
The carrier keeps the American Airlines name but will be run by US Airways CEO Doug Parker. American's CEO, Tom Horton, will become chairman of the new company, these people said. They requested anonymity because the merger negotiations were private.
A formal announcement is expected Thursday morning.
The deal has been in the works since August, when creditors forced American to consider a merger rather than remain independent. American has been restructuring under bankruptcy protection since late 2011.
Together, American and US Airways will be slightly bigger than United Airlines.

Five + 1 for Friday
1. This has been a very looooonnnnnng week! I am not always cheerful. I was down right crabby during the week. Yep...It's true. I'm sure my students don't always like having to fix mistakes. They don't thank me when I have high expectations for them. Shocking isn't it? What amazes me is that at the end of a day that's been filled with my high expectations for my owlets in behavior and work they still hug me and smile as they go out the door.2. Finally we have been able...

Enter at Your Own Rift: Server merges? Call Henny Penny! {Massively}
Jan 18th 2012 4:32PM Trion made 2 critical mistakes in their handling of these merges:
1 - they didnt make name space 1st by purging names of banned accounts and lvl 1 placeholders on inactive accounts. This is especially important considering 3 of the servers being killed were RP servers and 2 of those were original launch servers.
2 - they again missed the opportunity to time-zone tag their remaining servers to better distribute population by play time so everyone crowded onto the already highest populated servers (e.g. Wolfsbane) just to be sure they had people to play with when they play. Leaving other servers still perma-low and in danger of further merges while Wolfsbane now has Queues.

RIFT flags more trial servers {Massively}
Jan 12th 2012 9:00PM Trial Servers allows them to say "merges" or "closures" AND allows them an easy way to expand back out if/when people come back from SWTOR.
Given that one of the #1 Rift guilds is called you have to think they're going to take another population hit in March also.
But the game is good and the devs are good so I'd expect a healthy pop back in Rift by summer... it's still a much more fun game than WoW.
Persistent issues and Final Fantasy XIV {Massively}
Aug 19th 2010 6:18PM The problem with the game from what I've seen is they're not translating their stated goal of making a casual-friendly game with hard-core option content.
The accessability for this game is terrible - you need a heck of a system to run it well, there isn't good in game guidance at all, it's sometimes hard to do things that most people expect like track where other members of your party are on the map etc... and the controls kind of suck especially the mouse tracking as has been mentioned.
Also its not hard to kill things (friendly) but there's limited access to "interesting" content .... if you think you'll have fun catching 3 fish per hour for a whole play session cause you're on guildleve CD and tired of grinding boring mobs near a crystal ... then maybe you'll love it ... but thats limited appeal
They really need to re-think their approach in the next few weeks leading up to launch or this games population is gonna crash by mid-October :(
On the bright side the game looks awesome and has real potential if they can implement some more consistent mechanics...
Fan Faire 2010: John Smedley and the SOE crew talk EverQuest Next {Massively}
Aug 8th 2010 4:21PM It sounds like a good idea to me - I played EQ from launch .... Beta tested EQ-II and took a couple toons to 50 ... but rapidly ditched it for WoW's superior diversity and larger raid cap (at the time) and never went back.
I dropped WoW recently cause of the over-the-top "casualization" so this looks like a really appealing kind of hybrid between EQ and WoW.
Too bad it probably won't be out till late 2012-2013.

WAR40K courts 1 million users, WoW players {Massively}
Jul 1st 2010 6:46PM According to Craig Metzen more than 50% of WoW's active players raided during WLK - and when you account for low level alt etc (that was based on actual toons played) that percentage is the vast majority of max level characters.
The mistake of games like WAR and AoC that expect to attract WoW players is not having PvE raid end-game. Its the one thing all of the most successful fantasy MMOs have in common (EQ, EQII, LOTRO, WoW, etc)
Another unfortunate thing working against Warhammer 40K here is timing - going up against FFXIV and SWTOR as well as free-to-play LOTRO and DDO isnt gonna work well for them.
Finally, WoW's 14 million subscribers is a joke number. Currently the best estimates are more like 5 million. Remember they lost China which they were counting as 5-7 million of that 14 even though it was sub-licensed. And anyone who plays knows the population is WAAAAYYYY down right now. On the smaller pop servers you can run around Dalaran without even seeing other players sometimes.
WAR40K courts 1 million users, WoW players {Massively}

Honestly Sony should "re-launch" EQ-II under a different - that would attract a million WoW players ... especially with Activision / Blizzards current trashing of large-scale raiding for Cata.

+ Check your facts
Dear Editor:
This is in response to the June 28 editorial by Rod Thomson regarding the proposed "dog-hog hunt" in Sarasota County. I have a number of issues with his article.
Labeling those who do not agree as having "skewed principals and utter lack of commonsense" is absurd. My principles include fairness to helpless beings and teaching our children that torturing animals is not a good trait. To me, "commonsense" is getting the facts straight.
No one who opposes this hunt argues that the hogs must be killed. It is the manner of the killing that we oppose. As far as the hogs not being "native," the hogs were brought here in 1539 — I think that makes them a bit more native than you or me.
Let's talk about what Thomson considers "serious thinking," which, according to him, we who oppose this hunt lack.
The University of Florida IFAS Extension research shows that "trapping is usually a better method of controlling hog numbers than hunting, especially when the animals are active at night."
Trapping is more humane and effective in the long run.
And another correction to Thomson: One can crate pregnant sows; this has nothing to do with the "pregnant sow" law that was passed. Again, Thomson called people who simply wanted factory farm sows to have the ability to turn around in their crate "crazy environmentalists."
The last hunt of this kind was in 2009 on the same property and was deemed "not effective," according to SFWMD, yet cost the taxpayers about $15,000. This next hunt admittedly by SFWMD will cost us even more. Plus, were you aware that the NO ONE keeps records of where or when traps are set? How would anyone know if maybe consistent, monitored and recorded trapping might just do a better job than this barbaric hunt? "Serious thinking" to me is doing research before you scribble out an opinion about it.
And, about my "overheated hyperbole," as Thomson described my address to the commissioners June 5: Apparently, he was not present, because I spoke in a calm, informed manner with facts, not exaggerations. I mentioned that Sarasota was voted the meanest city toward the homeless by The National Coalition for the Homeless in 2006. Thomson calls that group "pro-homeless." I guess I should label Thomson "pro-animal abuse," then. I mentioned the issue because of the ramification this barbaric hunt will have on Sarasota's reputation.
Another adjective he used was "loud extremists," which is simply not accurate. No one was loud; no one was extreme. We were simply advocating a more humane way to control the hog population.
Often, the dogs used in such a hunt are maimed or killed. They round up the hog and virtually start to eat it alive, and then the hunter comes to stab it to death. The tortured hog is terrified and fighting for its life. I guess that's more of a sport than simply shooting them. Many times the dead dogs are thrown on the back of the truck with the dead hogs. It is very bloody and very loud, with both hogs and often dogs screaming in pain. And is something to bring your kid to? Yes, children are allowed.
And, finally, another bit of misinformation that was printed: The hogs are not "usually shipped overseas, where they are slaughtered for dinner." They are slaughtered right here. And Thomson insults one more group, sarcastically adding, "I'm sure the Chinese do it very humanely, though." If, in fact, the hogs did go to China, why does he assume the Chinese are crueler than anyone else?
So next editorial — let's get the facts straight before spewing out insults.

+ Shame on Sarasota
Dear Editor:
What a shame that the people who purchased condos at the Dolphin Towers cannot live in their homes. One has to wonder how this building passed the city of Sarasota inspections, and why aren't the condo owners going after the builder/developer as well as the city of Sarasota?
Granted, Sarasota invested more than $1 million in the defunct parking-meter program and has made a big issue out of maintaining the "Surrender" statue, so it is doubtful that they can assist these people with financial help. By the way, did you know that this is the third time that Sarasota has spent taxpayer money for parking meters?
It is surprising to many residents that Sarasota thinks of the city as full of "arts and culture," but the Planning Committee seems to continue making "bad choices."
I agree with Sarasota City Commissioner Shannon Snyder in that we ought to have the meters taken to the skeet club and let everyone who hated them shoot 'em up with slugs.
And, that Duncan Solutions of Milwaukee charged $10,000 apiece for the meters and will only reimburse $1,000: Shame on them. And shame on Sarasota for making such a big mistake, not once, but three times.

- The building is actually safer than ever, because hundreds of "shoring posts" have been installed, and any movement in the building is monitored by sensors that are checked by 3 different engineering companies daily. If the building was in any way dangerous, why would the Palm Avenue stores be open? If a balcony was in danger of falling down, why would people eat outside at Caragiulo's. Why hasn't "First Friday on Palm" been stopped?
Even if the Dolphin Tower garage cannot be used, the new city Palm Avenue garage is close by. The reason the city has not allowed residents to return, is to try to keep up both rental and sales prices that have dropped drastically in all the Bayfront area, since so many of these buildings have owners that are very "under water".
Yes! Shame on Sarasota for artificially pushing up prices with ever crazier zoning regulations to prices that could never be sustained.

As part of the Smyth & Helwys Bible Commentary series, the present volume offers many features that facilitate one's use of its contents. In addition to a full table of contents, the volume concludes with a complete bibliography, and several thorough indexes (modern authors, sidebars [explained below], Scriptures, and topics. The commentary series seeks to be visually stimulating, user-friendly, and provides an accompanying CD (containing the entire commentary text, sidebars, and visuals) that offers searching and research tools. Each commentary in this series employs "a stunning array of art, photographs, maps, and drawings to illustrate the truths of the Bible for a visual generation of believers" (xiv). Each chapter considers a pericope or textual unit and arranges the comments under two general headings: "Commentary" and "Connections." The "commentary" section focuses on linguistic issues and historical concerns, seeking to explore the theological issues presented by the passage under consideration. The "connections" section presents potential applications of the insights given in the "commentary" section. Set off from the text of the commentary, in each commentary in this series, sidebars (or special-interest boxes) are provided with the following kinds of supplemental information: historical information, literary structure, definitions of technical or theological terms, insightful quotations, history of interpretation information, photographs or illustrations, related works of fine art. Each sidebar appears in color to provide a distinctive appearance.
Although Cartledge acknowledges that "a historical basis underlies the books of 1–2 Samuel," he contends that what really happened "may be irretrievably buried beneath centuries of literary accretions" (10). He regards 1–2 Samuel as part of Deuteronomistic History, compiled fairly late in Israel's history. He also views biblical history as often imaginative and imprecise and not necessarily factual (12). In spite of this, Cartledge makes numerous helpful observations on key passages throughout the books of Samuel.
This volume would not be the first commentary on 1–2 Samuel that a serious student of the Scriptures should buy, but it deserves a place on the shelf of a preacher who intends to preach through these two biblical books. The cost ($65.00) might be an obstacle for potential users. If possible, check the volume out from a nearby library and have a "courtship" with the book before purchasing it.

This article addresses injuries such as bruises, minor fractures, and sprains. Other forms of minor injury such as minor burns, minor wounds, back pain, and more chronic soft tissue injuries are discussed in their own articles.
Unless you never leave your couch, you are likely to injure yourself sometime. Although minor injuries such as bruises and sprains will heal without treatment, they can be quite unpleasant.
Conventional treatment for minor sprains and strains involves anti-inflammatory drugs, icing, and, in some cases, physical therapy. Bruises are sometimes treated with ultrasound, although there is no meaningful evidence that it really helps.
Proteolytic Enzymes
Proteolytic enzymes help you digest the proteins in food. Your pancreas produces the proteolytic enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin, and others, such as papain and bromelain, are found in foods. Proteolytic enzymes are primarily used as digestive aids for people who have trouble digesting proteins. When taken by mouth, proteolytic enzymes appear to be absorbed internally to a certain extent, and they might reduce inflammation and swelling. Several small studies have found proteolytic enzyme combinations helpful for the treatment of minor injuries. However, the best and largest trial failed to find benefit.
Most studies involved proteolytic enzymes combined with citrus bioflavonoids, which are also thought to decrease swelling.
A double-blind, placebo-controlledstudy of 44 individuals with sports-related ankle injuries found that treatment with a proteolytic enzyme and bioflavonoid combination resulted in faster healing and reduced the time away from training by about 50%.1Based on these and other results, a very large (721-participant) double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of people with an ankle sprain was undertaken.19 It compared placebo against bromelain, trypsin, or rutin (a bioflavonoid), separately or in combination. None of the treatments alone or together proved more effective than placebo.
Three other small, double-blind studies, involving a total of about 80 athletes, found that treatment with proteolytic enzymes significantly speeded healing of bruises and other mild athletic injuries as compared to placebo.2,3,4In another double-blind trial, 100 people were given an injection of their own blood under the skin to simulate bruising following an injury. Researchers found that treatment with a proteolytic enzyme combination significantly speeded recovery.5 However, most of these studies were performed decades ago and fall beneath modern standards in design and reporting.

Answer to this question is yes. This is the story of most of human beings on this earth. For whole of there life, they go on chasing the life. Moreover, interestingly there chase never ends. When a person got birth on this earth then he is away from all these chases, more he grows in life more he starts chasing the life. These chase of life start in early childhood and lasts till death. As child person starts first chasing life. The things which he was not able to do in childhood hold them for his adulthood. He tries to convince his mind that he is going to fulfill all his desires when he becomes adult.
As adult he becomes busier with life and never got chance to fulfill his childhood dreams. He becomes more worried about the future. In adulthood also he goes on postponing things. All these desires may be of anything starting with a toy and passing through desire for love, money and recognization. Some of the desires got fulfilled and most of the others remain unfilled. More the person progresses in life, more unsatisfied he become and started chasing life more vigorously. The thing which most of the people do not realize is that life runs faster than us.
It is not possible for an ordinary man to chase and leave behind life. Life is a change, which is changing every moment. If we start chasing one form of life then soon it will get changed into some other and upgraded form. Here is the catch; we are trying to chase a thing which is not constant or following one principle. For winning this battle with life we are required to make changes in our self only. We are required to adjust our own priorities of life and choose our directions for life, otherwise we will be get trapped into this unending chase of life and die as a chaser.

In late May 2009, Sony released Infamous, the critically acclaimed action adventure from Sony and second-party studio Sucker Punch. The game told the tale of Cole MacGrath, a lowly bike messenger who, after a bomb destroys much of his home city, gains superhuman abilities based on electricity. The game gave players a choice: Use Cole's powers for good to fight crime or crush the humans that seem puny compared to his powers.
Now, this summer, players will have the choice of continuing Cole's adventures. Sony announced today that the game will ship in North America on June 7. The PlayStation 3 exclusive will be available as a $60 stand-alone title or as part of a previously revealed $100 Hero Edition. The latter will come with an 8.5-inch Cole MacGrath statue, a sling pack modeled after Cole's own in-game gear, an Infamous mini comic from DC Comics, the official Infamous 2 Hero Edition Soundtrack, and a voucher code for unidentified in-game content.
Infamous 2 will see Cole leave the metropolis of Empire City and travel to New Marais, a city based on New Orleans. Along the way, he faces the same narrative duality of choosing to either help or hinder humankind. Once he arrives at his destination, he must face an evil entity simply called "The Beast."

App could help NBC glean data about niche interests of its Facebook fans.
NBC Sports has partnered with Facebook to promote its Olympics coverage with exclusive content, trivia and daily polls that will be shared on primetime TV. The two companies are also collaborating on Talk Meter, a new data tool that will alert fans about results, stories and other events at the Olympic Games that are generating discussions on Facebook.
Media consumption habits have changed dramatically with the explosion of social media and online content, and NBC hopes to reach more fans of the Olympics by pushing content outside of its core distribution channels. NBC Sports' editorial teams will also be working with Facebook to produce social media segments that will be broadcast throughout the games on the NBC network.
NBC Olympics, the division committed to NBC Sports' exclusive coverage of the Olympic Games, also launched an app that lets enthusiasts "Add NBC Olympics to your Facebook Timeline." The app, available on NBCOlympics.com, serves as an online hub allowing people to share content from the London 2012 Olympic Games with their friends without having to click share or like. NBC said it wants to extend the value and reach of its 5,535 hours of coverage of the Olympic Games by offering fans more content such as news, photos and exclusive video across multiple social media platforms. Facebook users will be able to access the content once they like NBC Olympics.
"With the Olympic Games being one of those rare cultural moments that everyone talks about, people will watch the games on NBC and engage with their friends and favorite athletes on NBC Olympics' Facebook page," noted Andy Mitchell, strategic partner manager at Facebook, in a prepared statement. "NBC's viewers will get to see what Olympic athletes and others connected with the Games are talking about on Facebook, adding a new element to NBC Olympics' coverage. By sharing what they choose to watch on NBCOlympics.com, people will identify the events and highlights that are important to them and discover other Olympic moments through their friends."
In this way, the app could be used by NBC to glean data about the niche interests of its Facebook fans. Facebook and NBC Sports were both unavailable for comment.
The 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London begin July 27.

WILLISTON, N.D. — An attorney says the western North Dakota oil patch hub of Williston should establish an inpatient treatment program for drug offenders.
Drug crimes have been on the rise in Williston, and jailing drug offenders doesn't address the root of the problem, attorney Jeff Nehring said.
"Jail doesn't do anything. You lock them up, the problem is still there," he said. "The chance for repeat offenses is high. There are tools, mental tools, in treatment to get you out of drug addiction. You have to make the decision, 'I want to quit.' "
The Northwest Human Service Center in Williston has an outpatient drug treatment program, but patients leave every day and go back to their homes.
"In my opinion, we're really lacking different options to address drug treatment," Nehring said. "We need an inpatient facility. The person would be monitored 24/7."
Mercy Medical Center President Matt Grimshaw said the facility has no plans to open a drug treatment facility. But Judge Robin Schmidt said she hopes to start a drug court program, which gives offenders incentives to rehabilitate themselves so they can stay out of jail.
"If we can get them off drugs and alcohol, they'd be completely different people," Schmidt said.
Drug problems have grown in the region along with the oil boom, U.S. Attorney Tim Purdon said.
"We're seeing new types of drugs in the west — heroin, crack cocaine," he said. "We're seeing an increase in the amount of drugs, with meth. It used to be, you did a drug case, you pull somebody over, you find (a small amount) of meth on them. Now we're finding multiple ounces, pounds of meth."

After four years, Red Light says goodnight
One of Milwaukee's most esteemed dance venues is dimming its lights for the final time Aug. 4.
Mike Eitel, co-owner of Diablos Rojos Restaurant Group and the company behind Red Light (1758 N. Water St.), announced last week that the lofted lounge will hold its last regular show next weekend. A growing demand for banquets, private parties and special events at the Trocadero restaurant downstairs has forced the company to close Red Light, he says.
The company indicated that the closure of the lounge was "temporary." Eitel and business partner Eric Wagner are reportedly
