I recall an article in CRFG about a year ago about a taste test in northern California. I can't find the article now. Does anyone have any special favorites for taste among the pomegranate cultivars? Any nurseries carrying unusual pomegranates? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
He's changed his website, but Richard Ashton, at Oak Creek Orchard used to have a good run-down of the dozen or so varieties he'd grown and fruited at his place. I'm thinking 'Parfianka' was one of the best. Linked below is a list of nurseries offering pomegranate plants; you can also order dormant cuttings(they're easy to root) from the NCGR Punica collection at Davis. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Pomegranates
I just purchased 2 eversweet, 1 white, and 1 red silk pomegranates. The red silk seems to be the most vigorous one so far after planting. From what I heard the Red Silk has a really good classic pomegranate taste, with a good balance of acid and sugar. Raintree sells it however I bought mine from rolling hills nursey before they sold out. The best quality of the variety is its small size and high yield :) no latter needed to reach those high up poms. From the Raintree Nursery Website. RED SILK |

Mark, I don't have my back issues of the "Fruit Gardener" magazine on hand, but you probably read about one of the taste-tests at the Wolfskill Experimental Orchard (where the USDA pomegranate collection resides). LuckyP is absolutely correct: as I recall, "Parfianka" has generally been at or near the top in the various tests that have been conducted over the past few years. Another cultivar that has done very well is "Pink Ice"/"Sin Pepe". "Parfianka" is a member of the class of pomegranates with deep, dark coloration and a rich, acidic, vinous flavor. "Pink Ice", by contrast, is a good representative of the pink-fleshed, mild-tasting class of fruit. (It also has particularly soft seeds, a very nice characteristic.) Many of the other recent top-ranked varieties are Central Asian cultivars with long, hard-to-remember Russian names. I'd have to look at plant tags to give you the precise names (I have some of these as recently-rooted cuttings, in pots), but it is dark and raining outside now, so that will have to await another time! Bay Laurel Nursery has both "Parfianka" and "Pink Ice" for sale but (confusingly) under different names. By the way, out of the perhaps twenty different pomegranate cultivars that I sampled at one of the Wolfskill tastings, I liked common-as-dirt "Wonderful" about as well as any! |

Nullzero posted as I was composing ... so I will add that "Red Silk" is one of the re-named varieties. It may actually be "Parfiaka", but I can't remember for certain. |
I am looking forward to tasting red silk fruit hopefully soon in the future. Here is some info inside the PDF on the new tasty pomegranate varities that I dug up online; http://www.crfgsandiego.org/Newsletters/CRFG SD-Newsletter -Nov07.pdf From what I read from the PDF, I believe the Red Silk is a version of the Sin Pepe? The Sin Pepe and Parfianka seem to get high praise on being the tastiest. |
My daughter and I went to taste the pomegranates at Wolfskill Experimental Orchard last November 3, 2007. I used not to like pomegranates but the tasting won me over. It was the last tasting open to the public due to funding cuts. Here's our notes: |

Joe, Whoa, awesome response and chart ... although I am generally averse to clichés, in this case I feel compelled to award you a hearty "you're the man!" A quick review of the above chart confirms that many of those cultivar names won't exactly trip off the tongue for most Americans. Still, some of them are very tasty! (For Joe, off-topic: I have some capulin cherry scions cut and packaged for you, and I will try to put them in the mail tomorrow. The plants were *just* starting to come out of dormancy when I cut the material, so the scions will have to be grafted ASAP.) |
Thanks for the compliments Ashok! I can instantly graft anything you'll send me. Beware of the scores that my daughter and I put together. It was just a couple of iterations. There was a soccer game in Winters (near the Wolfskill nursery) during that day so we have limited time during the taste. My primary purpose was for wine evaluation, and so you can see that not one of pomegranate cultivars have sufficient sugar for that purpose and must be chaptalized to make wine. Also note that some of the cultivars will hve arils that eventually turn darker than what their current color scores were that day. So they were compared as they were harvested together and some may not be at their prime and some may have been past their prime harvest dates. And lastly, most of these pomegranates when sold by various Nurseries, they come under different Trademarked names, so it is really confusing as to the origins of the real cultivars. Harvey Correia knows which of the popular pomegranate Trademarked names can be traced back to their original names in the germplasm. For example, DWN sells the trademarked pomegranate Garnet Sash which is actually Parfianka. Nonetheless, don't be scared of trademarked names, as you can see, the various companies may trademark any names they wish for a particular cultivar, but if their origin is not patented, like coming from taxpayer funded germplasms, by all means you can propagate them but not sell them under the same trademarked name. Patented cultivars are an entirely different issue, these you cannot propagate asexually. Most of the time, patented cultivars are also trademarked by the same company. |
Joe, Thanks for that great chart! I'm pleased to see that 5 or 6 of the dozen or so varieties I'm trialing here rate 'very good' for fresh eating. Now, if only they could turn out to be winter-hardy enough to survive & fruit with a minimum of protection... |

Wow, thank you for the excellent responses. I'm buying some land down in Brownsville and look forward to trying many cultivars. Thanks again, Mark |

Mark if you email me I will send you some cuttings of mine if you know how to root them and tell me how while your at it. I wish I had found this forum last fall.I have a huge tree that came with the house I bought and dont know what to do with it. Do they need to be pruned? It was loaded with flowers and fruit but they all split. Could have been from the flooding we had all summer. I don't know what the name of it is. |

Does anyone know anything about Angel Red, this is a new one being offered this year and the only thing I can find out about it is it has more juice than other cultivars. Thanks. |
Don't forget that it has more antioxidants as claimed by the patent holders. Newly introduced, be reasonable, no one has the fruits yet. Shipment hasn't even arrived yet. |
Anyone know where to get a Angel's Red pomegranate? I tried to order Angel Red through Willis Orchard Company until I got to check out.... They dont ship to CA. |
You'll have to wait next year and order them from Bay Laurel Nursery in California. They get sold out pretty quickly. Their bare rooted Angel Red Pomegranate starts to be on sale in November or December. |
They're also sold out from Bay Flora in Berkeley. You can contact them though by clicking on the link below. |

Last time I looked they were available at Green Arrow Nursery in Mission Hills (San Fernando Valley/Los Angeles). I'll go over there today to see if there's any left. |
- Posted by greenwitch (My Page) on Wed, Feb 13, 08 at 12:26
Nope, sold out. |
Darn I will have to wait till next year :(. I live in mission viejo havent checked many of the local nurseries in Orange County but I am doubtful they will have it in stock. |
Just a note of clarification: I think the CFRG article cited above identifies "Sin Pepe" as either "Pink Ice" or "Pink Satin", rather than as "Red Silk". |
Here's a very good reference from a fellow Pomegranate afficionado and friend, Harvey Correia of Correia Chestnut Farm Thanks to Harvey for this excellent information: Dave Wilson Nursery of the Central Valley in California furnishes many of the pomegranate plants sold by retail nurseries. The names of the pomegranate varieties they sell can lead to some confusion, however, as they have assigned marketing names (names of fabric) to cultivars. Here is a cross-reference to those held by the USDA repository. I will include Dave Wilson's name and then the actual entry Germplasm cultivar name. Garnet Sash: 'Parfianka' (DPUN 0015) in 2006 and subsequent; 'Elf' (DPUN0090) 2005 and prior Kashmir Blend: 'Sour' (DPUN0090) Pink Satin: 'Sin Pepe', also know as "Pink Ice" (DPUN0082) Red Silk: 'Crab' (DPUN0085) Sharp Velvet: 'Purple Heart' (DPUN0056) It is confusing with these different names but even more so since they switched what cultivar is being sold as Garnet Sash. In 2007 (and probably a bit beyond), old stock plants were one thing and younger plants were another. In addition, the current web page for Dave Wilson has a photo for Garnet Sash that does not appear anything like a ripe 'Parfianka'. I'm not familiar with 'Elf' so I don't know if the photo is of 'Elf' or just an immature 'Parfianka'. As a side note, the USDA repository has a 'Parfianka' as DPUN0015 and a 'Parfyanka' as DPUN0124. I was under the impression from various readings that 'Parfyanka' was the correct spelling. However, our group member recently met with Dr. Levin (the Turken who sent their cultivars to the USDA) and he reportedly wrote that the correct spelling was 'Parfianka'. I hope this helps those in the U.S. and doesn't confuse everyone else! Best wishes, Harvey |

Thanks Joe, its good to have this. I am thinking about trying some pomegranates and without this kind of "key" it is possible to get two trees from different nurseries and have it turn out they are the same variety. I have a little bit more data to add as well. Favorite at One Green World is what they call lubimi which is Lyubimyi, DPUN 121, at NGPS. Lyubimyi means favorite in Russian apparently. The "Russian" at Edible Landscaping is an unknown Russian variety which Michael says they should have an ID on in a few years. Scott |
Nullzero: Hofman's nursery in Hanford, CA still has Angel Red (big plants, too). I think they are supplied by the wholesaler L.E. Cooke, so your local nursery may be able to order from them, if you're in the Western U.S. I think L.E. Cooke also supply Bay Laurel with this variety. Hofman's also have some of the Dave Wilson varieties this year. Joe, thanks for the clarification on names. |

San Gabriel nursery in San Gabriel had 5-7 Angel Reds when I was there today, but they were small plants, around 3 feet tall, bushy. |
I may try to go to that nursery in San Gabriel, its about a 2hr drive with average traffic though... Hopefully I can find one Angel Red in orange county. |

Here in Texas I purchased an Angel Red at Caldwell nursery about 3 weeks ago. It is starting to leaf out, with the mild temps we have had lately. |
- Posted by greenwitch Sz19 SoCal (My Page) on Sat, Mar 1, 08 at 18:47
For those within driving distance, Green Thumb Nursery in Canoga Park has about a half dozen Angel Red in 5 gal cans. |
I picked up a Angel Red Pomegranate from Laguna Hills Nursery in Foothill Ranch, CA. For those in Orange County... they still had about 4-5 left. |
Hey Lucky, what kind of poms are you trying? I have two "Russian Hardy" and/or Russian Giants that I am trying to get to survive here. I bought them in 2005 and have kept them in pots so far. I intend to plant them in the ground this year. Reports vary pretty wildly on how much cold they can take. This year our low here was 3 degrees. But, I've seen it down below zero in year's past. This warming trend seems to have me in more of a zone 7 - lately - than zone 6. This is what the supplier said I got them from: "Dr. Chris Inhulsen, Montezuma, Ga., tested Russian & Iranian pomegranates and found they survived winters where the popular "Wonderful" variety killed to the ground. The plants were reported to take -6 degrees F once, and at Montezuma, GA., 8 degrees F. The fruits are larger than the store-bought "Wonderful" variety, and are very red in skin and seed. Zones 8-10." My guess is that even if I can keep them going, I may not have a long enough growing season here for them to mature the fruit fully. Anyone else have any experience with these? I'm in Amarillo, Lucky you might recall I sent you some deeply lobed oaks. |
i bought 2 of those russian poms from the same supplier last year. both have survived their first dallas winter. one's in the open, one on the s side of a building. of course, dallas is warmer than amarillo, & its been a mild winter here. i'm hoping for fruit this year, i'll see if our summers are long enough for them |
- Posted by scottfsmith 6B/7A MD (My Page) on Mon, Mar 3, 08 at 18:27
RC, I just got one of the Russian ones from the same supplier (Edible Landscaping I presume; they are selling only one Russian one now). I recently asked Chris Inhulsen about them and he said his source was also the USDA; unfortunately he doesn't have the names of the varieties. I have a suspicion that it is Salavatski which Edible Landscaping is selling now, one of the most hardy ones at the USDA. I agree that ripening could be a big problem, even worse for me than you guys. Scott |
Thanks for the additional info Scott. That is where I got mine from too. Good luck. |
OH, and bhawkins, I have a few little fruit on the poms that have started growing inside already. If the transplanting doesn't cause them to loose their fruit this year, I'll try to let you know how they turn out later this year. |
Years ago I planted a pomegranate and the first crop produced very small fruit when ripe. The juice was excellent but what I liked most was the fact that the entire fruit was edible (sans skin) just like eating an apple. The seed pips and white pulp portions were not tough or astringent tasting. Once the plant matured the fruits were just like store bought versions with tough, mouth puckering pulp and hard seeds that were inedible. Does anyone know of a good tasting variety that remains fully edible, (seeds, pips, pulp) even after full maturity? |
Well, the update on the note I made above is that the transplanting did, in fact, cause them to shed their fruit. One of them re-fruited. But, of course, it won't have time to mature before our growing season is over here. The fruit is about the size of a tennis ball now and green. The good news is that they have grown strongly once planted. I am just hoping for a mild winter low temperature wise to help get them through their first winter outdoor here. |

Cain Wins #2, Pribanic Loses His First
Tuesday night's action in the Pirates' lower minor leagues:
West Virginia Power 5, Charleston RiverDogs 1
Colton Cain took his second win of the season, allowing 3 hits and one run over 5 innings, with one walk and 3 strikeouts. Cain had some trouble in the 1st inning, when a lead-off single, a sacrifice bunt, and an RBI single drove in a run for Charleston. After a walk, Cain got the next batter to fly out to center, where a nice throw from CF Mel Rojas to 3B Eric Avila ended the inning. Cain retired the next 10 batters in order, then gave up a double in the 5th inning. He struck out two batters to end his evening's work.
The Power batters gave Cain all the run support he needed in the top of the 2nd. With one out, DH Jairo Marquez lined a double into right field, then went to third base when C Elias Diaz reached base on a fielding error. Diaz stole second base, then LF Rogelios Noris singled into right field, plating Marquez. Noris advanced to second base on the throw in from the outfield, which put him into position to score behind Diaz on Avila's 2-RBI single. The Power added a run in the 3rd for a 4-1 lead. RF Dan Grovatt singled, then 1B Justin Howard's double advanced Grovatt to third. Rojas picked up the RBI with a ground out, scoring Grovatt.
Kevin Decker relieved Cain to begin the 6th inning. He pitched 3 perfect innings, including 3 strikeouts. Brooks Pounders took the 9th inning and allowed only a single in his scoreless inning.
Charleston committed errors in both the 4th and the 5th innings, but the Power were not able to take advantage of those errors to score. The Power scored one more run in the 9th, when Marquez bed off with a single, and was bunted to second by Diaz. Noris' ground out moved Diaz to third, and he scored on a wild pitch.
Pribanic Earns Win #3, Krol Earns Save #7
The Curve played another mid-day game today, with the stadium full of school kids
Altoona Curve 4, Akron Aeros 3
The Curve hung on for the win, despite being out-hit 12-6 by the Aeros. Aaron Pribanic earned his third win of the season, and Noah Krol earned his 7th Save.
SS Jordy Mercer got things going for the Curve in the bottom of the 2nd inning. He beat out an infield single to third, then stole second base. A grounder by DH Tony Sanchez moved him to third base, and Mercer scored from there on a wild pitch. C Eric Fryer singled and 1B Miles Durham walked after Mercer scored, but both were left on base.
Akron took the lead in the top of the 4th. Pribanic had allowed 3 singles over the first two innings, but left those batters on base. He hit a batter with a pitch to open the 4th inning, then gave up a 2-run homer, giving the Aeros a 2-1 lead.
The Curve went down in order in both the 3rd and 4th innings, but they got to the Akron starter again in the bottom of the 5th. Fryer led off with a walk, and with one out, RF Jose Hernandez drove a triple into center field, scoring Fryer. 2B Brock Holt's RBI ground out brought in Hernandez, and the Curve had the lead back, 3-2. They tacked on another run in the 6th. LF Quincy Latimore began the inning with a line drive into center field for a single, and when the Akron center fielder made a fielding error, Latimore moved to second base. Mercer followed with another line drive into center, putting runners on the corners. Sanchez bounced into a double play, erasing Mercer, but Latimore was able to score from third base for a 4-2 lead.
Pribanic allowed 6 hits with those 2 runs in the 4th, going a total of 5 innings. He did not walk a batter and struck out 3 Aeros' batters. Tim Alderson came on in relief to begin the 6th, and retired the side in order. He gave up an unearned run in the 7th, when Fryer made a fielding error to put a runner on base. A force out at second traded runners at first, and an RBI double brought the run in. Michael Dubee loaded the bases on three singles in the 8th, but wiggled out of the jam with a strikeout and a ground out. Krol earned his save by getting out of another bases-loaded jam in the top of the 9th (two singles and a walk) with a timely double play.
Indians Rained Out; Curve Lose In Extras
The Indianapolis Indians and the Columbus Clippers were rained out in Columbus tonight. They will try for two on Monday, beginning at 5 pm. Sunday's game is scheduled for 4 pm.
Infielder Pedro Ciriaco was optioned back to the Indians, after just a brief visit to Pittsburgh. The Pirates' new shortstop Brandon Wood got himself to Pittsburgh very quickly, so no need for Ciriaco to fill in. Jose Ascanio, who was hit in the head by a line drive on Thursday, has been diagnosed as having "just" a contusion (a bruise). He's doing better today.
Kannapolis Intimidators 8, West Virginia Power 7 (Game 1)
The Pirates were able to fight back after Kannapolis scored 6 runs in the 2nd inning, but 2 runs in the bottom of the 7th gave Kannapolis the win. The Power had the early lead with one run in the 1st and 2 more in the 2nd. CF Mel Rojas walked, and 1B Matt Curry singled. LF Rogelios Noris' fly out moved Rojas to third, and then Rojas scored on RF Justin Howard's single through the hole into left field. C Kawika Emsley-Pai walked to load the bases, but a ground out ended the inning without any more runs scoring. With one out in the top of the 2nd, back-to-back doubles by DH Jairo Marquez and SS Drew Maggi brought in one run, then a wild pitch and a fielding error allowed Maggi to score, giving the Power a 3-0 lead.
Starter Colton Cain had retired the Intimidators in order in the 1st, but got in trouble in the bottom of the 2nd, when the first 6 batters who came to the plate reached base safely. A single, a double, and a walk loaded the bases, then a hit batter forced in the first run. A double plated two more, and a single added another two. Another double made it 6 runs in the inning, and the Power were behind 6-3.
The Power battled right back in the top of the 3rd. Walks to Howard and 3B Andy Vasquez both walked, and Emsley-Pai was hit by a pitch to load the bases again for the Power. An RBI ground out drove in Howard, then Marquez's single scored both Vasquez and Emsley-Pai to tie the score at 6-6. The Power took the lead in the 4th on Curry's lead-off home run.
Trent Stevenson relieved Cain to begin the 3rd inning, and he pitched 3 scoreless innings. He allowed 3 hits and struck out one. The Power bats suddenly went quiet after the 4th, with no more hits until the 7th, when Howard tripled. Emsley-Pai and Marquez both walked, but two ground outs and a strikeout left all three on base. Jason Townsend pitched the 6th inning for the Power, allowing just one hit. Casey Sadler came on to pitch the 7th, and with one out, Sadler gave up three consecutive singles. The third hit went to Howard in right field, and Howard's throw back to the plate was right to Emsley-Pai, who tagged out the lead runner at the plate. But the next batter doubled to tie the score again, and the fourth single of the inning drove in the winning walk-off run.
Cain Throws Six Scoreless Innings
Sunday's action in the Pirates' lower minor leagues:
West Virginia Power 7, Augusta Green Jackets 0
Three Power pitchers powered up to shut out the Green Jackets. Colton Cain made the start and earned his first win of the season. He allowed just one hit and one walk in 6 innings. Cain retired the first 9 Augusta batters in order, then gave up both the hit (a double) and a walk to begin the bottom of the 4th. A double play and a pop out got Cain out of that little jam, then he retired 6 more batters to end his outing. Kevin Decker allowed a single in each of his two innings, but maintained the shutout. Ryan Beckman gave up two singles in the 9th, but left both on base to end the game.
The Power began their scoring with an unearned run in the top of the 2nd. C Elias Diaz reached on a fielding error in right field, then advanced to third base on RF Dan Grovatt's single. 2B Kevin Mort brought Diaz in with a sacrifice fly. Grovatt led off the 5th with a walk. He was forced out at second on Mort's grounder, though Mort avoided the double play and was safe at first. LF Andy Vasquez plated Mort with a triple into right field.
The 6th was the big inning for the Power. CF Mel Rojas and 1B Matt Curry started the frame with back-to-back singles, and after two outs, Diaz walked to load the bases. Another walk to Grovatt forced in Rojas, then Mort drove in Curry and Diaz with a line drive single into center field. The Power tacked on another run in the 7th, when SS Gift Ngoepe doubled, Rojas singled (his third hit of the game), and a fielder's choice on Curry's ball let Ngoepe score. It was Curry's turn to double in the 9th, and he scored on Avila's RBI single.
Rubinstein And Cunningham Homer In Bradenton Win
One win on Monday night in the Pirates' lower minor leagues:
Akron Aeros 6, Altoona Curve 5
(box score)
CF Starling Marte had 3 hits for the Curve in their loss in Akron. Starter Aaron Pribanic gave up only a double over the first 3 innings, then surrendered a solo homer in the 4th. Akron scored 2 runs in the 5th, when rehabbing Cleveland Indians' star Grady Sizemore doubled after two singles.
The Curve had only one hit, a single by LF Quincy Latimore, in their first 5 innings, though they also had two batters reach on errors — 2B Brock Holt in the 3rd and C Tony Sanchez in the 4th. Down 3-0 going into the top of the 6th, the Curve got going. With one out, Marte beat out a bunt single, and SS Jordy Mercer walked. Sanchez also beat out an infield single to third to load the bases, and 1B Miles Durham's line drive into left field brought in Marte, leaving the bases loaded again. Latimore plated Mercer with a sacrifice fly. Then 3B Jeremy Farrell drove in Sanchez and Durham when he tripled into center field, giving the Curve a 4-3 lead.
Tim Alderson relieved Pribanic to begin the 6th inning. He gave up two singles in that inning, but kept the Aeros from scoring. Akron also singled twice in the bottom of the 7th, including one by Sizemore, but this time, a throwing error by Holt on the force attempt let in one unearned run. After a ground out, a double drove in two more runs, also unearned, and Akron had the lead back, 6-4.
The Curve added one more run in the 8th, when Latimore walked, then came around to score on Farrell's double into right field. Walks to DH Eric Fryer and RF Brad Chalk loaded the bases again, but the Curve could not capitalize, and all three were left stranded. Tom Boleska finished the game for the Curve with a 1-2-3 inning in the 8th. Alderson was charged with the loss, as well as a Blown Save.

CROW AGENCY-The Crow Tribe's new administration didn't exactly receive a warm welcome at the start of their term. The newly elected officials were sworn in the first Monday of December. What they found upon entering the administration building was shocking. "We noticed a lot of bad smells coming from various offices, particularly the chairman's office. In there it predominantly smelled like feces," said Crow Tribe Secretary Alvin Not Afraid Jr. "The sad thing is, you enter other offices and you can also smell urine."
Their suspicions were confirmed; they also discovered a broken boiler that flooded the west end of the building. The new administration sees this as a sign of what is yet to come. "This particular incident actually motivates us to be the professionals we are, to clean up not only physically, but also mentally," Not Afraid said.
After examining the tribe's financial situation, the finance department discovered the tribe is operating on a 65-percent deficit. "We plan to stamp out that deficit by paying for those liabilities and also restore a good name, credit-wise to the Crow Nation," he said.
In another attempt to save the tribe's financial situation, tribal vehicles are being rounded up. The vehicles were being used outside of official use and vehicles are being located on personal properties. Over the past week, the tribe has collected about 100 of 300 vehicles. Plans for a new motor pool system where all tribal vehicles are checked out on a daily basis, is expected to go into effect by February. It is estimated this will save $3 million in fuel and vehicle maintenance costs. "Seeing the potential for improvement spawned the idea of hey, lets jump on the ball game here and produce for the people," Not Afraid said.
Not Afraid and the other newly elected officials also discovered this month's per capita payment to tribal members will be lower than usual. $1.9 million of December coal revenues were paid out in the August 2012 per capita payments. The Crow Tribe sends checks its members three times a year in August, December and April. This money comes from coal revenue from the Sarpy Coal Mine located at the north east corner of the Crow Reservation. This December tribal members can expect a check worth $150.

California Incentives and Rebates
One of the biggest money-savers that can come with installing your own solar generation system is a huge rebate from the federal government. A 2009 stimulus bill will grant you a federal tax credit for 30 percent of your system's value, which could add up to thousands of dollars.
The state of California itself will also give you a break on your property taxes when you install a solar power system. While this type of system will drastically increase the value of your home, the state won't count that added worth when calculating your property taxes.
You might also find that your individual city or county offers rebates of their own, though these can vary widely and more restrictions may apply to claiming them. Checking to find out what types of incentives you qualify for will make solar power even more affordable, but you won't get the best deals unless you act soon.

Register for the conference here!
What is "After the SpIL: A Dialogue between Students and Policymakers?"
The University of Georgia chapter of the Roosevelt Institute Campus Network is pleased to announce its sixth annual conference, After the Spill: A Dialogue Between Students and Policymakers. The conference is April 8-9, 2011, at the UGA campus in Athens, GA.
After the Spill will add a student voice to the conversation about emergency preparedness for human-made environmental disasters. Using the Deepwater Horizon oil explosion as the focal point for discussion, experts and students will present side-byside on key policy issues within environmental disaster science, emergency relief strategy, and claims resolution process. Discussion from the conference will culminate in a journal presenting expert reflections on the Deepwater Horizon disaster, student research, and conclusions from conference deliberations.
The conference stems from efforts by members of the UGA chapter to investigate policy responses to incidents like the Deepwater Horizon explosion. This initiative included a trip to the Gulf Coast to meet with stakeholders highly involved during the cleanup efforts and subsequent claims process. Conference participants will have the opportunity to reflect on findings from their grassroots research and formulate a much-lacking youth contribution to the national dialogue about preparing for human-made environmental disasters.
Guest Speakers
Billy Nungesser, Parish President, Plaquemines Parish Louisiana

Albert 'Rusty' Gaude, Marine Agent, LSU AgCenter Sea Grant Extension Project
Rusty Gaude is the easternmost of the Louisiana Sea Grant agents, concentrating his efforts on Plaquemines, St. Bernard and Orleans parishes. Although his historical area of expertise is global warm water aquaculture, he currently is involved in primarily Mississippi River-driven issues such as coastal restoration, wild fisheries (finfish and shellfish), and freshwater reintroductions into the surrounding marshes. He sees his chief focus in developing underutilized opportunities of the unique situation provided by the dynamic conditions of the lower Mississippi River. Rusty worked extensively with minority fishing populations to assist them with navigating the claims process following the Deepwater Horizon disaster
Dr. Terry Hazen, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Terry Hazen is a microbial ecologist with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory where he heads both the Ecology Department and the Center for Environmental Biotechnology. In addition he is a principal investigator with both the Joint BioEnergy Institute and the Energy Biosciences Institute, where he spearheads the search for new microbes and their organic-degrading enzymes in Puerto Rican rain forests and petroleum reservoirs. When a deepwater oil plume was formed in the aftermath of the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico this past summer, Terry Hazen led a team that was able to directly study the microbial activity within the oil plume. His report that the oil had been degraded to virtually undetectable levels within a few weeks after the damaged wellhead was finally sealed made headlines across the country.
Dr. Will Duncan, US Fish and Wildlife Service
Biography forthcoming
Dr. Samantha Joye, Professor of Marine Science, The University of Georgia
Dr. Samantha Joye is the UGA Athletic Association Distinguished Professor of Arts and Sciences in the department of marine sciences in the University of Georgia Franklin College of Arts and Sciences.

Mar 6th 2012 4:05AM I did run a game cartel at once in UO. 15th candle cavalry, [15r] in Napa Valley. It did work cause we had people getting MAD stuff (powerscrolls, back then they were a must in progression and fetched the millions). We had an alied PK guild who would kill all players trying to get access to the boss areas, we would jump and kill and take over other ppl boss kills (no instanced, it was open world, one of the reasons i didnt jump on the WOW wagon early on, i felt the instanced would draw that out of the game). It did work cause everyone got a cut in gold and powerscrolls. Hell, i even had a guy (still remember his name, Tolland) buy massive amounts of spell reagents for us and potions and he even had a key to my tower so he could deposit the shit in there.

Craig Alexander Dominates The Inaugural Ironman Asia Pacific Championship In Historic Fashion
It took very little time for the Ironman Asia Pacific Championship, held in Melbourne, Australia, to become a monumental and historic race. Sporting the new Oakley RadarLock sunglasses, Craig "Crowie" Alexander earned top honors at the inaugural event in record time, amidst one of the strongest fields ever assembled outside of Kona. Alexander's win came at a sub-eight hour pace, a time that is rarely seen and highly sought after in the triathlon world. To say the first running of the Ironman Asia Pacific Championship was thrilling would simply be an understatement.
Australian native Craig Alexander had high expectations for the race on his home turf. Heavily favored to win the event, the 38-year-old Alexander did not disappoint. As a three time Hawaiian Ironman World Champion, Alexander set out to win his first Ironman title on his home soil. His main competition came from ten-time Ironman Champion, New Zealander and fellow Oakley teammate, Cameron Brown. Alexander and Brown were neck and neck coming into the final marathon portion of the race. Mirroring each other step for step throughout most of the 26.2 miles, Alexander proved why he was touted the favorite to win, eventually surging to the victory. Completing the grueling course in a time of 07:57:44, Alexander topped a world-class field, full of fellow Oakley athletes. He also became the first athlete in the world to win wearing the new, highly anticipated Oakley RadarLock sunglasses.
"Nothing beats winning in front of the home crowd, friends and family, the sporting public and the Australian triathlon community," Alexander said after winning the race. "I just kept thinking, I want to be the first on Greg Welch's trophy!"
Beyond Alexander's win and Brown's second place finish, Oakley athletes rounded out the top 10 in true fashion. Belgian, Frederick Van Lierde finished third, Paul Matthews took sixth, Luke Bell came in seventh, and Joe Gambles finished eighth.
On the women's side, Caroline Steffen rode away with the win, beating a strong field of competitors. The "Swiss Miss" joined the leaders at the end of the swim and never looked back. Her bike work was impressive and brought her up to the second pack of leaders in the men's race. Topping off the first two legs with a 3:01:22 marathon, Steffen was untouchable. Nearly breaking Chrissie Wellington's 8:33:56 world record time, the Swiss native's 8:34:51 performance in Melbourne will stand in the record books amongst some of the best times ever seen at this distance. Steffen, although a Swiss native, considers Australia her adopted home and was thrilled to post such a historic time in front of her "home" crowd.
"How fast? That's my fastest time ever by four and a half minutes or so," she proudly stated. "My first goal was to be on the podium, my second goal was to be sub-9:00. I still can improve heaps on the run, it's still early in the season. I was a little disappointed in Kona and I wanted to show everyone that I'm not done."
Steffen is most definitely not done and neither were her fellow Oakley competitors. 2010 Ironman World Champion Miranda Carfrae was heavily favored to win, ultimately ending up third.
There was a buzz surrounding the first running of the Asia Pacific Ironman Championship in Melbourne, Australia and for good reason. The race produced epic results and a day triathlon fans will never forget. Congratulations to the Oakley athletes for their amazing performances in Australia!

Download the Plan
How are we doing?
Check the Initiatives sections above, or see the Objectives for 2020 page.
This Sustainability Action Plan marks the first time the College has outlined a broad framework and strategy for moving forward with sustainability efforts. The plan includes seven broad goals for sustainability, following those with topic-specific sections with quantitative and qualitative 10-year goals:
- Administration
- Education
- Energy
- Facilities
- Food and Agriculture
- Pollution
- Purchasing
- Transportation
- Waste
- Water
Each of those sections describes major issues to consider, objectives for 2020, and a list of recommended potential actions for reaching those objectives. Some sections also include new policies, statements, or other items to adopt in support of those objectives.
Key Issues: Environmental Justice and Climate Change
The plan also includes discussion of two key issues - environmental justice, and climate change - in support of sustainability. In discussing climate change, this plan constitutes an update to Pomona's response to the American College and University President's Climate Commitment, which President Oxtoby signed in April 2007.
Reporting and Progress
Please see the Reporting page for information on how we will report our progress, and the Objectives for 2020 page for the most recent updates.

I need to frame a section of my garage to make a room for a furnace.
1) A neighbour warned me to leave a space between the top plate of the new partiton and the finished ceiling to allow for movement. The climate is hot summers and down to -20-25 in winter as the min. Do I have to worry about this? 2) what would be the best way to attach the top plate then 3) To attach the sole plate ( pressure treated wood) to the concrete would you reccomend a Hilti gun? or other means?
thanks David |
Follow-Up Postings:
Personally, I use a hammer drill and TapCon screws to fasten bottom plates to concrete. I have a powder actuated nailer, but just find the TapCons easier. If you fasten two walls to an existing garage wall, there really is no need to fasten the top plates---unless your local codes require it. You will need air inlets in the walls unless the furnace is electric. |
I can't imagine why the ceiling would move more than the wall would unless the ceiling is attached to a truss. |
- Posted by sierraeast (My Page) on Sun, Oct 4, 09 at 10:52
The movement in question isn't lateral, but rather load from above,(live load). Unless you have a second story or finished attic above the garage, I would think a floating top plate would be unneccesary. |
I would frame the wall on the floor (end nailing the plates) but let it be about a half inch short, then tip it up and install it in the normal manner top and bottom, then not screw the drywall to the top plate of the wall and install wall-ceiling trim with a small reveal at the ceiling. |

These Louis Vuitton Invitations are a show-stopper. The incredibly detailed invites are for the grand opening of the brand new Louis Vuitton store in Osaka, Japan. The cards were created by the Italian design firm Happycentro and cleverly use the traditional Japanese art of paper folding.
The French fashion house used such an incredibly opulent invitation in order to fit its luxurious brand. Hence, why Happycentro was the perfect pairing as the design firm is filled with creativity and never does the same thing twice.
Each invitation carries a diverse array of printing techniques. In order to get the glistening effect, the use of multiple foils from transparent, silver matte, pearl and rainbow were used to express pureness of the origami and truly capture our attention.

Reviewed Roasted Potato Leek Soup
Mar 5, 2013 in Food Network Community Toolbox on FoodNetwork.com
"One of the best soups I've ever had! Everyone I shared it with loved it and they keep begging me to make it again. Glad I read the reviews first and didn't roast the leeks the whole time because they started to char after about 35 minutes. The next day when I reheated the soup for lunch I added frozen peas and it was delicious! Thanks Ina for ""

PHOTO: Mary-Kate Olsen's Engagement Ring Is Extraordinarily Enormous
We now have photo evidence of Mary-Kate Olsen's gargantuan engagement ring. Let it be known that Mary-Kate's newly-minted, 44-year-old French fiancé Olivier Sarkozy wasn't messing around with the whole rock situation. Late yesterday, Mary-Kate was snapped, courageously gloveless, walking out of an office building in New York City wearing a thick gold ring on that finger.
Is this the ring that one-half of Michelle Tanner will be wearing for the rest of her married life? It's literally so large, gilded and costume-y, that we're not entirely convinced that it's her actual engagement ring.
Here's a closer shot of the rock in question:

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is PEANUT!
Facts about PEANUT
- Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
PEANUT's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
This curious little fellow is "Peanut!" . . . Part comedian, part athlete, Peanut is ready to play! He seems to be asking, "How may I please you today?" Peanut is merely a young whipper-snapper and he is ready to mold into the perfect, well-mannered young man. He is completely eager to learn and hasn't developed bad habits yet. He is playful and tolerant with respectful children and his cheerful disposition makes him perfect for families. He will need plenty of exercise, but would prefer to be an indoor doggie. His coat is wash-and-go, so he will require little to no grooming. Peanut is excited and ready to be adopted today. 706-957-8316 Available from C.A.R.E., Inc.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
PEANUT, a Wilmington American Staffordshire Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Staffordshire Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Wilmington, or seeking a American Staffordshire Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier puppy from a breeder in Wilmington.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Wilmington already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Wilmington breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even American Staffordshire Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Staffordshire Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Wilmington paves the way for another one to be saved.

One River, Two States
From the days of the earliest settlers, nearly three
hundred years ago, we in the Northern Connecticut River Valley have had our
own way of doing things. We once even tried to form our own state, with the
Connecticut River in the center, although General George Washington himself
put an end to that idea.
Since then, the region has evolved its own distinctive culture. It's a landscape
of hill farms and downtowns, where newcomers might operate the general store
and descendents of old-time families run businesses in cyberspace, where loggers
make sculptures, and teachers raise sheep. It's a place where the regional culture
can't be confined within our great museums. You'll find authentic historic sites
from one end of the watershed to the other. Many of our downtowns and neighborhoods
are themselves historic districts.
Our church steeples and village greens still provide picture postcard views,
and in some places at night you can see for miles and count the house lights
on the fingers of one hand. But these days our traditional Town Meetings and
old-time church suppers are enriched by lively downtown and village scenes,
where you'll find art galleries, antique auctions, craft fairs, concerts, and
live theater. Catch the show, join the dance, check out the shops on Main Street.
For calendars and special events, check the Waypoint Communities links
to the local chamber of commerce or tourism association.
Among the most illustrious artists of the Connecticut River Valley is the sculptor
Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848-1907). The Saint-Gaudens
National Historic Site in Cornish, NH, preserves
the home, gardens and studios where the sculptor summered from 1885-1897. Among
his most well-known works are the Shaw Memorial in Boston, the Chicago sculpture
depicting Abraham Lincoln, and the monument to General Sherman in front of New
York's Plaza Hotel. Saint-Gaudens drew into his sphere many other artists and
musicians who collectively became known as the Cornish Colony, here at "little
New York," from about 1885-1935. The National Park Service operates the
150-acre site and its hiking trails that explore the park's natural areas.
Among those drawn to the Cornish Colony was the Parrish family, including popular
artist Maxfield Parrish, who created luminous paintings of Connecticut River
Valley scenes. Those who live here know that the remarkable lighting for which
his work is so well known is a true reflection of the Connecticut River Valley
skies. The Town Hall in Plainfield, NH, features recently restored stage scenery
of Parrishs design. His work is shown at the
Cornish Colony Museum, Windsor, VT.
The Arts Alliance of Northern
New Hampshire supports and sustains culture, heritage and the arts in the
Colebrook region with a variety of events, performances, and activities. The
River Arts Map guides visitors on a tour of Connecticut River galleries
and other cultural sites.
The St.
Johnsbury Athenaeum is a distinctive public
library and art gallery, in St. Johnsbury, VT. This National Historic Landmark
is a legacy of the Fairbanks Family, inventors and manufacturers of the world's
first platform scale, who gave the Athenaeum to the Town in 1871. The art collection
contains a number of Hudson River School paintings. Dominating the gallery is
the magnificent canvas, about ten feet by fifteen feet, of the Domes of the
Yosemite, by Albert Bierstadt. The artist visited St. Johnsbury often until
his death in 1902, touching up the canvas from time to time.
Among the finest cultural centers in the Upper Connecticut River Valley is Dartmouth
College, Hanover, NH, with its Hood
Museum of Art and Hopkins
Center, a leading venue for the performing
arts. One of the Byway's finest regional museums is the Brattleboro
Museum & Art Center, Brattleboro, VT.
A variety of smaller yet equally vibrant galleries includes the Spheris
Gallery in Walpole, NH.
The Great
River Arts Institute, also in Walpole, draws upon the inspiration offered
by the Connecticut River Valley setting, which works as well for 21st century
artists and writers as it did for the 19th century Cornish Colony. The Institute
has sponsored a major exhibition centered around the river, and published a
of arts and cultural sites in the Valley.
Not far from Brattleboro, in Dummerston, VT, another National Historic Landmark
offers a glimpse into the American years of Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), the
first English language author to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. At the
place he named Naulakha,
Kipling himself designed one of the region's finest Shingle Style residences
for his American bride. Despite their brief residence in the house (1893-1896),
Kipling wrote several of his best-beloved books here, including The Jungle Book
and Captains Courageous. The Landmark Trust of America operates the site as
a private bed-and-breakfast, which is infrequently open to the public.

I was curious.
I have been using a griity soil for all my plants. They are all doing wonderful. I never got around to transplanting one of them out of a cocopeat only mix, I mean no perlite, or anything, in a see through container, and I tell you, that plant has the biggest fattest white roots I have ever seen. They look so healthy! It seems to me to, that I can let the soil dry out longer, and it seems to hold the perfect moister for the roots for a longer period of time.
All my others are in a gritty mix, are doing fine too. But cocopeat seems to perform better than regular peat in this case. Just my observation, that's all.:-) |

I have had a clivia for about a year that I won at a Master Gardener meeting and it is potted in regular potting soil with some added perlite. It looks great, dark green leaves, nice fat roots peeking out of the bottom of the pot and even a bud just beginning to break out of the leaves. Can't wait to see it. I'm pretty sure it is the common orange color, but they are gorgeous. One day I would like to find a yellow one. |

How is your clivia planted in coco peat doing? I'm guessing the clear pot is plastic. I just got a few clivias that arrived bare root and put them in clay pots with gritty mix for air circulation and because I know I tend to water more than less. I'm thinking I will try an offset in coco and see they compare. |

Notre Dame's DaVaris Daniels looking to build off BCS performance
By LaMond Pope 713-2691 or firstname.lastname@example.com August 19, 2013 6:14PM
Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix, DaVaris Daniels, Vinnie Sunseri
Updated: August 19, 2013 11:02PM
SOUTH BEND — Notre Dame didn't have many highlights in the BCS national title game.
DaVaris Daniels' performance on the big stage was one of them.
The wide receiver, a Vernon Hills (Ill.) High School product, had a career-high 115 receiving yards in the 42-14 loss to Alabama.
Daniels missed the Irish's final two games of the regular season because of a broken collarbone. He recovered in time for the title game. And he returned with a splash. Daniels caught six passes, including a 31-yard reception.
He's looking to build off the game.
"Learning from that game, I think I saw what I can do against good defenses," Daniels said recently. "There's no reason why I shouldn't be able to do that on a game-to-game basis. I think that was the main thing I took from it."
Daniels didn't see any action with Notre Dame in 2011. He played in 11 games, and made three starts, last season. Daniels had 31 receptions for 490 yards.
His role could continue to expand in 2013.
"I'm excited. It's something that everybody dreams of, being the guy that everybody can rely on and have that kind of pressure on you," Daniels said. "I think that I'm looking forward to it. It should be a good year."
Daniels can stretch the field. He averaged 15.8 yards per catch, the highest mark for any Notre Dame receiver with at least eight catches a year ago.
"Daniels will be a legitimate BCS wide receiver," Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said. "He will be a guy that you'll have to pay attention to. He's doing a great job of running vertically. Getting the football to him will be important, especial vertically. Him and TJ (Jones), I think we're going to have great balance, probably the best balance in the wide receiving corps since I've been here, across the board."
Daniels likes the progress of the offense, beginning with quarterback Tommy Rees.
"Tommy's confidence is through the roof," Daniels said. "I know he feels the pressure, but Tommy thrives in that kind of situation. We're real excited about the season."
Daniels' game is "right where I want it" to make a contribution.
"Talking to the coaches, consistency was the key we preached going throughout the spring and going into camp," he said. "I think I've done a good job with that so far."
