That's what we're trying to do here :) I'm not proposing anything to be executed right now - I don't mind having the GWN and main website to be used this once for store.gentoo.org. If you'd mail us the text you want to see published we can easily work things out. What I do hope is that we can create something for future reference (the so-called "long run" :). First start with general ideas, brainstorm on what we (trustees) want to accomplish and how it can benefit you (and other stores). There are several ways to lay guidelines for this. I'm just brainstorming out loud here, I hardly have any experience with these things, but we can for instance: - Give each "new" store a newsitem on www.g.o that announces the store, with it's intentions regarding Gentoo. - Depending on what the Gentoo Foundation sees on advantages (this might not be revenues only, but also positive feedback from users, development-related contributions (such as documentation updates *g*), etc) allow that store to announce new things on www.g.o Regarding the "official" status, the idea Paul proposed isn't purely merchandise-related. When we receive e-mails (for instance on firstname.lastname@example.com) regarding "where can I buy Gentoo CDs" it is in our (Gentoo Foundation) best interest to be able to point the user to stores that we know deliver their goods well. We could call these stores "official" in a way that we both benefit. For instance (once again, brainstorming out loud :) those stores can have immediate access to release media even though they're still hidden on the mirrors (the few days before the release) so they're able to deliver the new release faster than other stores. This is all for the long-run, we still have many jobs to complete before anything of this is targeted (such as the copyright stuff, trademark stuff, etc... the wheels of juridical tasks turn slow :). But imho it could provide better information for the other community-related groups (think the German Gentoo eV) who might be thinking of firing up a store as well.

For a simple and quick preparation you can bread them in egg and panko, salt and pepper and pan fry in a little butter and oil on the stove top. Finish off with a squeeze of lemon if you like.
Depends on how much chicken you have and whether or not you want to add a breading of some sort. Place a skillet over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil. Heat until the butter is foamy. Season the tenders with salt. Add them to the pan and cook until golden brown, then turn and cook on the other side. They're ready when they're well browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Hope this helps.
I"m a big fan of "wondra flour" for chicken and fish frying, available most everywhere. It makes a very nice crust---not a 'batter crust'..just a slight crunchy crust.
For tenders, cutlets I flatten them dust with wondra flour, salt pepper, paprika.
Fry in olive oil. and then a pan sauce of chicken stock..(a touch more of wondra flour to thicken)..some capers and lemon juice and a touch of soft butter. Sometimes some sliced mushrooms and green onions.
Well played.

Great tool! I haven't thoroughly checked it for my area, but from what I see, this thing rocks! Well done! Thank you for posting it. That was very generous. :) Erin |
Make sure you get your frost zone from the Farmers Almanac. In my area I have seen dates all over the place. http://www.almanac.com/content/frost-chart-united-states#chart |
Thanks for the post and the chart. It will really help me out. |

Question about the frost chart ... I was looking at the dates given on the Farmer's Almanac website and my city was not listed. So, at the bottom it says "for more locations click here" which opens the NOAA website. For each location, NOAA gives 9 dates. Which one am I supposed to use ??? And why ? |
- Posted by organicdan z5b Nova Scotia (My Page) on Thu, Mar 25, 10 at 21:32
Angela, Try the zone finder in the Tools & Directories of the upper tool bar. It also provides your last and first frost dates. You can validate it from other sources or a local nursery. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Zone Finder (U.S.)
- Posted by lantanascape z6 Idaho (My Page) on Thu, Mar 25, 10 at 23:00
Angela, there are a variety of ways you can use that data. Going across, the NOAA site gives you the dates when there is a 90%, 50% and 10% of dipping below a set temperature. Going down, it shows the probability of going below 36, 32, and 28 degrees. So the middle number, 50%/32 degrees would basically be your *average* frost-free date. There is still a 50% chance of frost after that date, but you may be willing to put plants out and take a risk on either needing to protect them, or losing them. If you want to be very safe, you might use the upper right date, when there is only a 10% chance of dipping below 36 degrees. Of course, every year is different, and it's best to watch the extended forecast as you get near your frost-free date. Hope that helps/makes sense. |

I saw you first link was companion planiting, I ....just fortunatley have followed everything pretty close with out even realizing it. This year I was going to plant some peas and beans not to far from my onions and leeks, I wonder how close is to close. I thought I had every thing planed out already. I might have to go back to the drawing board. |
- Posted by organicdan z5b Nova Scotia (My Page) on Fri, Mar 26, 10 at 16:54
Joe, Based on the rooting habits I would suggest at least 6-8 feet between the planting of peas or beans and onion family. The lateral roots of peas and onions approach nearly 3 feet. |

For those unfamiliar with Excel: To enter your 'last frost date' you double-clik on the cell (D-57) which put the cursor into the cell. The date is entered numerically as day/month/year, i.e. - 16/05/2010. Hit 'enter' and the calculations are done. Enjoy, Dan |

Thanks, Dan. Yours is much better than mine. Going to work on it right now for my zone. |
- Posted by paloaltomark (My Page) on Sun, Mar 28, 10 at 9:51
Hi Dan: I could not enter my frost date in cell D-57. I believe with Google Documents you need to set the permissions up so that others can enter information. Otherwise it's "read only". |

Download as a spreadsheet and it should function. Has anyone else had a problem with entering the date? |
- Posted by skywaitress 4 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 28, 10 at 22:42
Thank you for posting the chart! It's awesome! After I opened the spreadsheet, then clicked on "file", clicked "download"... clicked "Excel" and was then able to put in my date. That's what worked for me. Thank you again. |
Hi again, Dan. I've had a chance to check it out more closely. I was able to enter my last frost date, no problem. It updated the cells as anticipated. However, The dates are a bit off. Is there a way I can adjust? The planting dates are a bit late for my area. By looking at the formulas, I'm thinking I can do it with a little tweak here and there... just not sure what to tweak. Also, I was wondering what columns K and L are for- high range and low range. Thanks again for a fabulous tool! Erin |

In preparing the chart I researched many sources to arrive at the best information. The primary factor is the 'weeks from Start to Transplant' which translates to the size of transplant. The size has bearing on the reduction of transplant shock (including required hardening off) and ease of handling for the actual transplanting. The next consideration is the actual transplant date related to estimated last frost date. The rest is just the mathematics. The early start (H) and late start (I) dates are determined from the weeks from start to transplant. If your experience suggests earlier dates (calculated) than the chart, consider that you may have a special micro-climate within the zone. The chart is merely a guide based on reported averages. Any tinkering with the formulae will influence the entire chart as based on columns not rows. Your best amending method would be to edit the specific cell after entering the last frost date. Good luck. |

Ahead of next month's official unveiling at the Detroit Auto Show, BMW leaks some choice imagery as well as the specifications to its 2015 M3 and M4 models. On the outside each sedan sports a subtle power dome in its hood, M3/4-branded strakes on each front fender, split-five-spoke 19-inch wheels, and carbon-ceramic brakes. Under the hood, both cars pack a 430-horsepower, twin-turbocharged six-cylinder engine with the choice of a six-speed manual or a dual-clutch transmission. The cabin of the M3 and M4 will include a new steering wheel, bolstered heated seats, carbon fiber trim availability, side and top-view cameras, and LED lighting. Lastly, both models will be available in different color options. [See More]
German BMW tuner Alpina recently unveiled the 2014 BMW Alpina B4 Bi-Turbo Coupe at the Tokyo Motor Show. The coupe is powered by a twin-turbocharged version of the 435i's 3.0-liter straight-six engine, producing 410 ponies and 443 lb-ft of torque. Capable of a 0-62 mph sprint in just 4.2 seconds, the B4 is capable of reaching an eye-watering top speed of 189 mph. Additional details include quad exhaust, 20″ wheels, high-performance brakes, lavalina leather-lined interior, and a 31 mpg rating. The 2014 BMW Alpina B4 Bi-Turbo Coupe will be available beginning May, 2014 starting at approximately $78,102 USD. [See More]
BMW has unveiled the 2 Series, the German marque's newest coupe and the successor to the 1 Series. At launch, the car will be offered in two variants: the 228i and the M235i. The 228i is powered by a 240 horsepower, 2.0 liter turbocharged engine and can do 0-60 mph in 5.4 seconds with the eight-speed automatic transmission. The range-topping M235i features a 3.0 liter, turbocharged six-cylinder engine good for 322 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of just 4.8 seconds. The 2 Series is set to make its real world debut at the North American International Show and will go on sale soon after with prices starting at $32,100 USD for the 228i and $43,100 USD for the M235i. [See Photos]
BMW is generally known for making refined, elegant silhouettes – cars that combine both performance and luxury into stylish, functional roadsters. With the release of the i8 though, the German automaker lets its proverbial hair down. The sport-focused vehicle takes cues from the canon of great sports cars in the past, but more importantly, strikes a balance between sustainable energy consumption and high speed performance. All this is thanks to the 131 horsepower electric motor on the front axle, combined with the 231 horsepower in the rear. Options for charging aren't especially synonymous with the athleticism of a butterfly door system, but the BMW i8 seems to pull it off without seeming contrived. A wealth of technical info can be found on BMW's mini-site for the car, while an introductory video is featured below. [See & Watch More]
This isn't your normal mid-model refresh. The 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo ($148,000 and up) is an all-new model, and as such, it's packing some new goodies. Features like a new all-wheel-drive system, active rear axle steering, adaptive aerodynamics, an entirely new, longer chassis, 20-inch wheels, Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control active anti-roll system, and full-LED headlights. It hasn't lost its edge, either, boasting a turbocharged 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine that pumps out 520hp in the standard model and 560hp in the S model, paired with a seven-speed dual clutch transmission that gets you from 0-60 in as little as 2.9 seconds and to a top speed of nearly 200 mph. They'll be rolling off the boats from Germany just in time for the holidays — so here's to hoping you have a very, very generous gift-giver on your list. Enjoy.
Don't get us wrong, the Ferrari F12berlinetta is a beautiful car. This DMC custom is already possibly the sexiest custom we'll see in 2013. But, as was pointed out when the car first launched, the back of the car looks a bit like a uterus. This similarity remains no matter what color it is, even in matte gray. It's just one of those images we can't get out of our heads. Other than that like matte Ferrari is amazing, see more shots after the jump. [See More]
Having unveiled the sedan and wagon versions of the automobile, Mercedes-Benz has officially unveiled the upcoming 2014 E-Class Coupe.

Under the hood, the E350 features a 3.5-liter V6 engine with 302 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque while the more powerful E550s boasts a 4.6-liter twin-turbo V8 capable of 402-horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque.

Set to be unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show, we're now privy to initial details and photos of the forthcoming Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible. Rumored to feature 616 horsepower and 590 foot-pounds of torque running through an eight-speed transmission, many speculate that the luxury beast with have 0-60 mph capabilities in four-seconds. Aesthetically, the convertible has many design traits similar to its predecessor – of course with the most glaring difference being the lack of a prominent roof element and the whimsical purple paint job never seen before. The Detroit Auto Show kicks off on January 14th. [See More]
The first official images of the forthcoming 2013 Porsche Cayman reveals Boxster influence on the second-generation automobile. While official specs haven't been revealed, one can note that the design features a sleek rear hatch and prominent spoiler – with many industry experts calling the Cayman a coupe version of the Boxster. Under the hood the performance machine will have either a 2.7-liter flat-six with 265 HP (195 kW) and 206 lb-ft (280 Nm) or a larger 3.4-liter flat-six producing 315 HP (232 kW), and 266 lb-ft (360 Nm) of torque.

Diet! The Way to Stay Healthy
The word diet has come to mean in common parlance, the act of deprivation. It is used as a verb. Usually the word is used in the context of removing some of those pounds and adipose tissue that one has accumulated over time and that do nothing to improve one's looks, stamina or general health. Going on a diet is usually a short-lived decision to try and reduce unwanted weight and usually involves the latest fad with foods.
Daily Diet
Diet actually has another meaning, it is the noun which describes what we eat. One of my fellow physicians often says "we are what we eat" and there is truth to that. In remaining health and fit we have to pay attention to our diet - that is, what we eat every meal. There recommendations that we have all heard about from the first time we can remember our parents directions at the dinner table to the constant bombardment in the media. The facts are that what our parents told us is true: "eat a balanced diet."
What is a Balanced Diet?
As the name implies, a balanced diet includes eating foods from a variety of "groups" which when properly combined are nutritious, healthy and appropriate for almost all people, especially older ones. The food groups are: Grains (breads, cereal, rice, and pasta), Vegetables, Fruits, Dairy, Meats (Animal and fish), and Fats, Oils, and Sweets. The table shows the recommended servings of these groups. The United States Department of Agriculture suggests that consumption of these groups be thought of as a pyramid with the grains serving as the base which means we should base our diet on the grains and top it with fats, oils and sweets which we should eat only sparingly. The other groups are sprinkled in to make the final balance.
What are Servings?
Servings are appropriate portions of each food. Moderation is always the byword, and the recommended servings are given with three major goals: 1) provide caloric requirement for active people, 2) accomplish required nutrition and 3) promote overall health of the mind and body. Examples of desirable servings are: Grains - 1 slice of bread, 1/2 cup of cooked rice or pasta, 1/2 cup of cooked cereal, 1 ounce of ready-to-eat cereal; Fruits - 1 piece of fruit, 1 melon wedge, 3/4 cup fruit juice, 1/2 cup canned fruit, 1/4 cup dried fruit; Vegetables - 1/2 cup of chopped raw or cooked vegetables, 1 cup of leafy raw vegetables; Dairy - 1 cup of low-fat or skim milk or yogurt, 1.5 to 2 ounces of cheese (low fat); Meats - 2.5 to 3 ounces of cooked lean meat, poultry, or fish (a slice of cooked, lean meat or poultry about 1/4inche weights about 2 ounces) and Fats, Oils, and Sweets - the less you eat of these the better - they add calories and saturated fats which are unhealthy (oils from vegetables and olives is healthful).
There is abundant evidence that eating a balanced diet provides for present health and prevents future illness. Rather than embarking on the latest fad diet, try the balanced diet approach to maintaining your health: it works and you can stick with it.
Daily* Dietary Requirements
Grains | 6-11 servings |
Fruits | 2-4 servings |
Vegetables | 3-5 servings |
Dairy | 2-3 servings |
Meats | 2-3 servings |
Fats/Sweets | Very Few |
*Eat this amount in three meals to achieve a balanced diet. See text for serving portions.

Nutrition and Health: Dietary Guidelines for Americans

Rules for Healthy Eating
How Much Should I Eat?
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has developed the Food Guide Pyramid to help you make healthy food choices. There are five major food groups. Every day you should try to eat the suggested number of servings from each group. If you can't do that, at least try to eat something from each group each day. Lower fat choices are best.
Make sure you eat vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain foods.

The East Valley's only Juneteenth celebration, an event commemorating the end of slavery in the United States, will be on Friday and Saturday in Chandler.
The annual event sponsored by the South Chandler Self-Help Foundation is free, and this year's theme is "Juneteenth: More Than an Event, It's an Experience."
The event celebrates the past while bringing the community together to learn more about black culture, said LaVon Woods, program project coordinator for the foundation.
"It's hopefully the opportunity to fellowship," Woods said. The foundation "has used black history and the Juneteenth celebration to educate the community. For many years, due to segregation and things that have happened in our history, people don't know about our culture."
President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 freeing all slaves in the United States. Slaves in Texas learned they were free two years later.
In celebration, Juneteenth was born and is traditionally observed June 19 as African American Emancipation Day.
Juneteenth has been a celebration held primarily in Texas where it started, but as people moved to other parts of the country, the event spread, Woods said.
The local celebration kicks off Friday evening with the Miss Juneteenth Pageant at the Chandler Center for the Arts.
Five young, black women will compete for a scholarship by performing their talents, sharing their experiences and demonstrating their knowledge of current events.
The winner will be crowned Miss Juneteenth and will retain her title for a year.
The celebration will continue Saturday with a community picnic at Zora Folley Memorial Park.
Vendors will sell food, and entertainment will be provided by the newly formed East Valley Community Youth Choir.
The Uncle Mike Band will perform a blend of rhythm and blues, gospel, funk and other music, while the Loose Cannons Band, which has performed at the House of Blues in Los Angeles and the Cajun House in Scottsdale, will play the blues.
For more information about the celebration, call Woods at (480) 899-3022.

Remote Controlled Flying Bug Freaks Me Out
I'll start out by telling you that I used to live in the Deep South, home of cockroaches the size of small mice. Oh yeah, did I happen to mention that they could fly? Every time I saw one of those airborne six-legged nasties, it made my skin crawl. No wonder this gigantic flying insect sets my teeth on edge.
Created by Japan's Taiyo Toy, the Mecha-Chu HeliBug buzzes around the place with its brightly colored body, dual copter blades and transparent insect-like wings. Measuring in at over 6-inches long, it definitely puts those Southern flying bugs to shame. While it doesn't really take flight like a real insect does, it's still creepy enough to give me nightmares.
The flying bug can ascend/descend or turn left or right around its helicopter-like rotors. Oddly enough it doesn't offer forward or backward flight. It'll fly for about 5 minutes on a 30-minute charge, and is controlled using an included infrared transmitter.
Entomologists and other bug lovers can get their feelers on one from GeekStuff4U for about $50.

HeliBug – R/C Helicopter Bug…
We have seen some strange flying radio controlled toys before, like the Vampire Bat and the Bee, but this bug is probably the weirdest one so far.
The colorful 6-inch long insect flies around using two helicopter blades on its back. The controller do…
Looks like an exact copy of those cheap little helicopters going around, just redesigned slightly. Fun, but they tend to die fast.
It is so COOL! I should write about it on 7Gadgets! (note to myself: put it on todo list).
I thought I've seen it all in r/c flying, but this takes the prize. I suppose flying frogs or lizards are next.
hahaha, this look like a big version of the Richie rich bee version
if i order you a specific desinger remote controled flying bug then it is possible for you to supply it for me ?
please give me answer then i will send you my requirements.

Finish (at KU) what you start
The close proximity of the University of Kansas – Edwards Campus to JCCC is not just a zoning fluke, and it's become more than just a matter of coincidental convenience. Both institutions reinforce the other's excellence, and the principal beneficiaries are the students who take classes at both schools and complete a bachelor's degree as part of the Start2Finish program.
Leaders at the two schools, which are two miles apart along Quivira Road in Overland Park, initiated Start2Finish in 2007, and it has been a success – even offering scholarships to S2F students. Amy Hempleman, public administration major and scholarship recipient, restarted her education after being a stay-at-home mom for 10 years.
"I was looking for a program that would allow me to do as much of my prerequisite classes at JCCC and would allow me to use scholarship money in order to complete the last two years of my program," she said. "I am very grateful for the Start2Finish scholarship."
Hempleman started her college career in fall 1988. She became a single mother in 1989 and worked full time. She simply couldn't keep up the rigorous pace. "The great thing about JCCC is you can start again," she said. "Most all of my credits have transferred from JCCC with no problem at all."
Counselors at both institutions work with a student to determine if each school's academic programs fit the student's goals and then guide the student through the programs. Hempleman would recommend easing into this avenue of learning to others for a variety of reasons.
"I wanted to take advantage of the smaller classes that JCCC offers, as well as the lower tuition for my prerequisite classes," she said. "Plus, as a non-traditional college student, walking into a smaller class at JCCC was much less intimidating to me than a lecture hall at KU."
She's also taken advantage of discounted student tickets for the Performing Arts Series and feels like she's been able to broaden her cultural arts awareness because of the discount.
"We are so lucky to have a wonderful community college like JCCC so close to home. It is a great way to start or restart your education journey while you are sorting out what you want to do with the rest of your life," she said.
Now, with hopes of graduating in May 2015, Hempleman is faced with another choice – to minor in sociology or English.

1. What is the standard Homecloud configuration? Homecloud applications offer different ways to backup, protect and share your personal data. Knowing which application is best suite your needs is important. Here is the basic information that would help in making the right decision.
Lets say you have your music files, movies, photos or large data content that you want to backup at a centralized storage location within your home and access that data anytime from any devices within your home then you would better of using Network Share drive (Network Attached Storage) or Backup and Share application with a large storage capacity external drive.
Now if you have some very important data that you want to backup and want to preserve all future modification/versions or changes then you would better of using Data Protection application with small storage capacity external drive.
2. How do I connect Homecloud DHM to devices like (Verizon FIOS, AT&T UVerse, Comcast XFinity)? Simply follow this steps:
3. How does Backup and Share application work? Backup and Share application requires a external USB drive to be plugged in the FRONT port of Homecloud DHM. Once the drive is inserted in front port and added to Backup and Share application, you can right click and select folder that you want to backup on your computer and folders will get backup automatically depends upon your scheduled backup interval time. By default, scheduled backup interval time is every 24 hrs
Once folder has been selected and added to "Backup and Share" application, the application continuously monitors that folder for future changes and does the incremental backup. Please note that "Backup and Share" application does NOT preserve previous version rather it backs up latest version.
You can map your "Backup And Share" drive onto your computer using //myhomecloud/BackupAndShare network share path.
4. How does Data Protection application work? Data Protection application requires external USB or eSATA drive to be plugged in the BACK port of Homecloud DHM. Once the drive is inserted and added to Homecloud (By clicking "Add To Homecloud" button on Storage page), the drive gets formatted with EXT3 partition and can be used by "Data Protection" and "My iOS" applications. Similar to "Backup and Share" application, you can right click and select the folder that you want "Data Protection" application to backup and monitor.
Once folder has been selected and added to "Data Protection" application, the application continuously monitors that folder for future changes and backup all changes/previous versions (unlike "Backup And Share" application) so that you can go back in time in restore your previous version. (IMPORTANT NOTE: "Data Protection" application meant to backup and preserves all versions of your important data. It is not recommended to backup your entire video, music or photo collection given that those types of data will not change over time.)

Here's what I did last weekend, on hearing that (a) there were 2 more months of winter & (b) we were headed for yet another snow storm. Here in NYC we've had the snowiest winter on record, EVER.
this one says Spring: and another a Red Veined Fittonia and since you know I love succulents: Sans. Moonshine: it's a good size plant: All irresistable cheapies from a local supermarket. The Red Fittonia was $3.99 (3" pot), same for the AV. The Sans. originally had doodads on it: fabric, stuffed animal & bow, marked $19.99. Must have been a look on my face, but she said 'no doodads, $9.99' so I said absolutely!! Quilting a lot & hoping for Spring! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Oh, is that a sansevieria moonglow? I saw one in a supermarket, went back a few days later to buy it and it was gone. :( |

Karen, you wrote, 'Okay, you Asked for more pix,' I thought you posted 100 or more..I sat down, w/my 'electronic cig,' a bottle of flavored water, all ready to check out your plant pictures..4 pics. lol. Yep, I've been keeping an eye on US weather..You guys really got hit this year..I bet traffic is a disaster! The AV bloom colors are so pretty..nice purple and white. If you'd have said something, I had an extra..My niece pleaded with me, 'Aunt Antoinete, I love that plant,' in a subtle way kids subtly plead, lol. Well, the then, 9-yr-old Sans is in succulent heaven. I'd have sent to you had you said you didn't have one. I have another MoonGlow, but I gave her the prettier and larger of the two. Sheesh! Still quilting. Haven't found your quilt page. I don't remember how I came across it to begin with. Is that it for the pics? :) |

Thanks Josh, guess I needed an extra shot of living things w/ some color, what w/ all this snow & white everywhere. I know the Sans as Moonshine, think is probabably same as Moonbeam, who knows, most of my Sans. are no ID. this ID is my guess. About the belated Moonshine thought for me, thanks, I had one a while back, lost it tho' I don't recall the circumstance. I DO recall that one had a dark green edge on light green leaves that was just spectacular. Well Toni, I started posting pix a while back, surprising you hadn't seen, since I've postd some at HP, some at C&S, Some at Sans & Some at Hoyas. I have an older computer so it's slow going, to upload to Photobucket & then from there to here. You post pix sometimes right? Here's a pretty special one; a hydro growing variegated Hoya kerrii. Cool plant, I've had it 2 yrs. no bloom yet, I've been unable to root cuttings. New growth on a Sans. Mason's Congo (aka Masoniana) A no ID Sans. that needed a home. I repotted from a tight pot (to another tight pot but new mix) & about 2 months later this pup appeared. New growth on a ZZ plant in Dec. They usually sprout new shoots in Sept. & Feb., & I was surprised to see the shoots now, don't know if they're early or late. Has anybody else growing ZZs had this experience? Let's see what else can I show ? Left or foreward most is a Euphorbia francoisii which has a caudex this shot doesn't show, on the right a Hoya diversifolia, gift from a another fellow GW Member & Hoya lover. After that another pair of Hoyas: Left is Hoya australis off cutting from another GW friend which came w/ the adjacent no ID Hoya pubicalyx. On the window sill 2 different Euph. milii, the rear most blooms yellow the front one is newer & of unknown bloom color. Another no ID Sans. w/ cylindrical but curved leaves, quite handsome to me Another, but tiny Sans, no ID. An acquisition from last year, Ficus elastica Burgundy, which I hope to repot in Spring w/Al's help (& hopefully some of his gritty mix). A handsome plant I wish to learn better care for. Another shot Enough entertainment for now Toni? It's late, bedtime!! |

Now there's a nice spread of plants! Yes, a little green can help perk the spirits this time of year. I'm glad to hear that you'll be re-potting the Ficus - you'll have a lot of fun.

Karen..nope, I've never seen your plants before now. I love your Hoya Kerrii. Don't feel bad it hasn't bloomed. Got my green Kerrii some time in the 90's, not once did it flower. Its vines grew over 6'..while carrying it in the house, my dog moved to another spot, I didn't see him, and I ended up flying from one room to the next. Injured my hand attempting to save the pot from breaking...saved the pot, 'ceramic' but Hoya stems broke. I can't root Hoyas, so they went in the compost. The colors on your Hoya is different. Seems no two var Kerrii's are the same. Love your E. francoisii and curved Sans. Very interesting, rare. Mine is small but stands erect, common. Cute F. elastica/Rubber Tree. Another genus that has oddball colors. Yes, I post pics at times..lazy, lazy..lol.. I don't have many Sans...here are my favorites. Beneath, the tall, spindly Sans came from Thailand. The last is much shorter. I gave cuttings away. When I bought it, thought it was an Aloe.. |

Karen, Nice to see your pics. You asked about ZZ Plant. My plant I started from a leaf is sending up a new shoot now, looks like the largest one so far! I have a Sans like the one in Toni's first picture, but one of the offsets rotted on me, and then one of the leaves on the main plant turned yellow and wrinkly...And Sans are supposed to be able to take all sorts of abuse? Not in my hands! Christopher |

Christopher, I realize your post was addressed to Karen..Hope she doesn't mind. Don't know what it is, but I've killed a good number of Sans. Especially my favorite, '''Gold hahnii.''' They're absolutely beautiful Sans. Don't know why they die; they're watered similar to other Sans, yet the leaves shrivel and goodbye. Wonder if they need higher temps than other types?? Toni S |

Beautiful plants! What is the Sans that seems to have babies almost like a spider plant? It is beautiful! |

Last year, UK development studio Kuju Brighton adopted the persona of Zoe Mode to reinforce its unique identity. That identity won't be unique for much longer, as the studio today announced its first expansion, a London office set to open in September.
Zoe Mode London will be built around a core team pulled from the flagship studio and headed by current Zoe Mode Brighton executive producer Nick Rodriguez. The team already has its first two projects lined up, and is actively hiring for a variety of positions, including producer, art manager, and senior programmer.
Since its adoption of the Zoe Mode moniker, the Brighton studio has specialized in music and party games. It is currently developing Konami's Rock Revolution rhythm game, and has previously worked on Sony's SingStar games, Activision's Dancing with the Stars, and Sega's PlayStation Portable puzzler Crush.
