Those are some great thorns! Nice photos too |
What an interesting collection of roses. Love the ballet and the thorns. Ghislaine has obviously decided to be a standard, very brave....... |
What a beautiful and interesting collection. I really like Purple Tiger! Very nice coneflowers. I have a coneflower plant in a dry spot, a very tough plant, great summer plant. |
Thanks! Ghislaine does seem to have a mind of her own doesn't she! We're going to have to have a talk about this growth habit...lol! Krista, As pretty as Purple Tiger's blooms are, I really wouldn't recommend it. There's just too many negatives that outweigh her positive attributes. Its just too bad, because her colors are so unique :( Tammy |
Ghislaine de Feligonde is standing quite proud! Before reading your message I thought to myself, that must be what a tree rose looks like! How funny that one cane just took off like that! Great pictures. |
Tammy, what a fun group of photos. I've never seen a "haunting" pink before, but your Ballet fits that description. Charles Darwin is stunning, Pied Piper - why don't we hear more about this rose - WOW. And GDF, I've never seen a rose with so much ... personality. Re: Purple Tiger, mine is in its first year, and it's about 1 1/2' tall with lots of blooms. So far super healthy. Hoping I get lucky and it doesn't resort to it's reputation for me because I sure do like it. |
I totally agree that Ghislaine de Feligonde is trying to be a tree rose...but I have different plans for her! Harmony, is Ballet pretty! I just got it as a band from Vintage this year and is now in a one gallon. I really don't go for pink HTs often, but I really like this one. As for Pied Piper, thats another Vintage newbie, also in a one gallon. I'm really impressed with it so far! I'll have to see how it does over winter and in the grough though. Good luck with Purple Tiger...maybe you got lucky :) Tammy |
Tammy those are beautiful, Belinda's Dream is gorgeous ;D |
Don't know how I missed these lovely pictures, but I'm enjoying them belatedly. Such a gorgeous collection of roses--and I really like Pied Piper and Golden Princess. Kate |

Does anyone know how he would do in the hot Dallas summer? Been questing for a rose with this form and color. |
Paula, Are you referring to Pied Piper? I'm not sure how he would do there, but so far he's off to a great start here in Tennessee. I'd imagine we have similar temperatures. I'll try to remember to report back at the end of summer with an update on how he did :) So far...a really spectacular rose! Another one that is a really stand our for me in terms of rapid rebloom, long lasting blooms, and keeping a dark red color is Red Riding Hood Fairy Tale. That one is one the hottest side of my house and goes like the Energizer Bunny! Tammy |
oooooo, love that Purple Tiger. Great Thorns on Dragon Wings! Oh, your Belinda's Dream is lovely and makes me miss the one I killed! I left it in a pot during our winter as an experiment, and unlike my potted Frederic Mistral, BD keeled over, dead as a doornail. So far FM has weathered 2 of our winters unscathed and green to the tips. Hehe, wow, your Ghislainde is very impressive. I think you should make it into a "tree rose" anyway, lol! My friend Jay-Jay from the Netherlands has this absolutely GORGEOUS Ghislainde de Feligonde Standard. It is STUNNNING! Ummmm, Tammy, that bee is not something to be happy about, unfortunately. That is the danged carpenter bee which will drill through wood. But I tolerate their presence so long as they don't chase away my honeybees. Some carpenter bees can get pretty territorial toward honeybees. Rose gardeners are constantly getting their carpenter bees mixed up with a true bumblebee. Anytime you see a striped fuzzy upper body, but a shiny black back, that is a carpenter bee. |

text: As you may have heard, Goldman Sachs has "banned the use of profanity" in emails. Some are heralding the move as the end of Goldman, where describing the various ways in which clients are screwed (I kid the Sachsians) is part of the daily grind. And at another bank, staffed by unimaginitive fucks* whose lack of creativity is bested only by their mediocre grasp of the English language, this would be a paralyzing edict. At Goldman Sachs, it's a mere challenge. Read more »

I went to my 2nd editor this week with my most recently completed story, "Magic Mystery!" (which I am in the process of uploading now :)
I went over to talk to an editor at Square Enix's GFantasy. I'm a fan of the magazine, and thought that maybe my story would fit.
Not sure if this is common knowledge, but in Japan, as long as you have a completed work, you can call up any magazine's editorial department and ask to talk to an editor. This is called "mochikomi." Usually they want to see a completed work that is a stand-alone story. This is called a "yomikiri."
I'm explaining this because I think some people are curious about the process and have asked me about it.
Anyway, if you do mochikomi, be prepared to have your heart-filled work ripped to pieces in front of your eyes. More like your ears, actually. Earlier this month I had gone to Kodansha's "Afternoon" and the editor there was enthusiastic about my story and characters, but said my art was pretty terrible and said it would be years before I was commercially viable. GFan's editor pretty much was unexcited about every aspect of my story. The art was old, the story too convoluted, the pacing awkward. It's funny how differently two people look at the same comic.
One thing that editors seem to agree upon is my terrible drawing skill D; HAHA, actually in Japan, this is seen as entirely fixable if I just put more effort into it.
Anyway, this is my life right now. I'm trying to think of a third editor to go to...I just need to think of a magazine that I could see myself in...D;
It's hard getting up the courage to telephone the editor, go over to their company and wait; only to be told that you're terrible. But I think this is kind of the life of everyone who wants to do manga here lol.
Wow, I haven't written that much English in a while. I hope it was intelligible D;
EDIT: I just remembered something else. Apparently there's no age for when you can start mochikomi. My teacher apparently took her work to a publisher when she was an elementary schooler. I think that is adorable. Also, elementary schoolers send in contest entries for magazines like Jump! Imagine how cute those manga would be....and how many contest entries the editorial department receives!

When this book first appeared in 1972, it was part of the spirit that would define a new architecture and design era--a new way of thinking ready to move beyond the purist doctrines and formal models of modernism. Charles Jencks and Nathan Silver's book was a manifesto for a generation that took pleasure in doing things ad hoc, using materials at hand to solve real-world problems. The implications were subversive. Turned-off citizens of the 1970s immediately adopted the book as a DIY guide.
Today, spaces no longer represent a bourgeois haven; nor are they the sites of a classical harmony between work and leisure, private and public, the local and the global. The house is not merely a home but a position for negotiations with multiple spheres—the technological as well as the physical and the psychological. In A Topology of Everyday Constellations, Georges Teyssot considers the intrusion of the public sphere into private space, and the blurring of notions of interior, privacy, and intimacy in our societies.
The word "architect" is a noun, but Doug Patt uses it as a verb--coining a term and making a point about using parts of speech and parts of buildings in new ways. Changing the function of a word, or a room, can produce surprise and meaning.
Event-Cities 4 is the latest in the Event-Cities series from Bernard Tschumi, documenting recent built and theoretical projects in the context of his evolving views on architecture, urbanism, and design. Event-Cities 4 follows directly from the work of Event-Cities 3, which examined the interaction of architectural content, concept, and context. This volume takes the interaction a step further, looking at a series of projects for which program or context are insufficient as a generative conceptual strategy, hence requiring a different approach.
What is a camp? In August 2005, television news showed viewers an estimated 20,000 Katrina evacuees camped out in the Superdome, Cindy Sheehan protesting the Iraq War on President Bush's doorstep in "Camp Casey," Texas, and Israeli and Palestinian young people at the Seeds of Peace Camp in Maine discussing the evacuation of settlement camps in the Gaza Strip.
Architecture, at least since the beginning of the twentieth century, has suspended historical references in favor of universalized abstraction. In the decades after the Second World War, when architectural historians began to assess the legacy of the avant-gardes in order to construct a coherent narrative of modernism's development, they were inevitably influenced by contemporary concerns.
Some may call it the first manifesto of the twenty-first century, for it lays down a new way to think about architecture. Others may think of it as the last architectural treatise, for it provides a discursive container for ideas that would otherwise be lost. Whatever genre it belongs to, SITELESS is a new kind of architecture book that seems to have come out of nowhere.
This is a book that students of architecture will want to keep in the studio and in their backpacks. It is also a book they may want to keep out of view of their professors, for it expresses in clear and simple language things that tend to be murky and abstruse in the classroom. These 101 concise lessons in design, drawing, the creative process, and presentation—from the basics of "How to Draw a Line" to the complexities of color theory—provide a much-needed primer in architectural literacy, making concrete what too often is left nebulous or open-ended in the architecture curriculum.
Does fame empower architecture or undermine it? Does the star power or cult status of an architect enhance the art or dilute it? This issue of Perspecta—the oldest and most distinguished student-edited, university-based American architecture journal—examines the inner workings of fame as it relates to architecture though media and culture. It looks at how the commodification of architecture affects the design process—whether fame emphasizes all the wrong aspects of architecture or provides the only way an architect can produce truly ambitious projects.
The Organizational Complex is a historical and theoretical analysis of corporate architecture in the United States after the Second World War. Its title refers to the aesthetic and technological extension of the military-industrial complex, in which architecture, computers, and corporations formed a network of objects, images, and discourses that realigned social relations and transformed the postwar landscape.

In the Judeo-Christian tradition, acknowledgment of sinfulness, in public or private, regarded as necessary for divine forgiveness. In the Temple period, Yom Kippur included a collective expression of sinfulness, and the day continues in Judaism as one of prayer, fasting, and confession. The early Christian Church followed John the Baptist's practice of confession before baptism, but soon instituted confession and penance for the forgiveness of sins committed after baptism. The fourth Lateran Council (1215) required annual confession. The Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches consider penance a sacrament, but most Protestant churches do not.

I grew up coming to Sonoma: my grandmother lived in Jenner, a tiny town overlooking the mouth of the Russian River. My family lived in the Bay Area, and we drove up for weekends and holidays all the time. I remember the drive seemed endless back then, sitting in the backseat of our VW Bug with my kid brother, making our way through wine and orchard and dairy-farm country and then winding up out on the coast. The meals in Jenner were epic. We'd sit at my grandmother's long antique Provençal table (which she'd bought in France and shipped over in the late 1950's) overlooking the garden, eating crab and roasted lamb and ratatouille, artichokes, salads, and apple pie with whipped cream. My grandmother made the pie, I whipped the cream. We were a family of cooks and eaters, and Sonoma was where we did a lot of cooking and eating.
My great-aunt M.F.K. Fisher, the author, lived nearby in Glen Ellen, writing and cooking, and we'd visit there too, and eat and cook some more. She was always done cooking when we arrived, actually—it was just a question of taking dishes out of the cooling oven and tossing the salad. Lunches with M. F. had a certain leisurely formality about them. We'd sit outside on the terrace and the adults would drink wine. She would regard me with an expression of veiled amusement at my generally solemn 12-year-old demeanor. Her house was full of books and paintings; it had tall ceilings and the most enormous, luxurious bathroom I'd ever seen. I never failed to wonder at that bathroom, and also at the round, mysteriously beautiful dark-blue tiled pool up at the main ranch house, where we'd swim after lunch.
We rented a renovated farmhouse in Kenwood, just a few miles down Highway 12 from M. F.'s former house on the Bouverie Ranch. (The ranch, including her house since her death in 1992, is now a wildlife preserve.) Highway 12 is the road that runs from the town of Sonoma to Santa Rosa, through the so-called Valley of the Moon, past a series of wineries and beneath stands of towering oak trees. It is one of the prettiest highways anywhere, and all the more so when you find yourself on vacation, filled with surging optimism at the prospect of shifting gears, and a slower pace, and lots of cooking: tooling around with the windows rolled down, stopping in for supplies at the local groceries and farmers' markets, eating outside, jumping in the pool.
My grandmother was coming to stay with us in Kenwood, as was my dad; and so along with my wife, Yumi, and daughter, and visiting friends and relatives from the Bay Area and New York, we had a full house and then some. When we were there, we spent most of our time outside on the shady wraparound porch. There were Gravenstein apple trees along one side of the garden and a wild tangle of blackberry bushes all along another.
At the center of the house was a state-of-the-art country kitchen, with envy-inducing appliances. (One of these days, I'm going to buy one of those monster ranges with double gas rings and an oven door that swings open like a bank safe....) We made vast bowls of guacamole and sprawling tomato salads; we barbecued lamb chops and sweet Italian sausages. At the farmers' market in Sebastopol, we bought cheese, peaches, leeks, and mushrooms. At the mushroom stand, the proprietor scratched his cell phone number on the edge of a Farm Trails map, showing me more or less where the farm was located (most of the purveyors welcome visitors). "Come anytime," he said, "we'll be there." I got the impression of a small community of shaggy-haired farmers, tending their mushrooms along with their shaggy-haired kids....
One morning at 7:15, the phone rang. It was George MacLeod, a local winemaker.
"You've got to come right now—they're here!"
It was the first of a few harvest days for the Sauvignon Blanc grapes at MacLeod's vineyard, which happened to be just next door. The harvesters had arrived—a group of Mexican workers who'd been picking his grapes for the past 30 years. They'd come before dawn and would be done within hours—20 tons of grapes later. MacLeod and I had been introduced by the owner of the house we'd rented, and he'd invited me to the harvest. His is a relatively tiny vineyard: most of his grapes go to larger producers, though he also bottles his own (very delicious) wine.

If you stumble upon my little blog, you'll probably notice that I am a web programmer. Although I am wary about mixing work and downtime too much, I am working on a hobby project of mine, using the exact same tools and frameworks that I use for work. This is a great difference compared to my previous job, in which programming actually felt like a punishment. Read on if you want to know what made me change my mind on programming in the weekends.
On motivation
Actually, I have been considering to do a pet project for about 6 years now. However, my previous job sucked, at first even without me knowing. I had no wish to further my knowledge of programming, and I was seriously considering leaving the IT business altogether. I found another job (again: as a programmer), and found a more productive and healthier environment as well.
At my current workspace, I am actively being encouraged to explore new programming techniques and experiment. If that experimentation is conducted on pet projects, that's fine. I even 'own' my own code. Furthermore, the web is slowly losing the shackles of Internet Explorer and other closed formats such as Flash. HTML5 and CSS3 have risen, Javascript is growing more useful and interesting every day and PHP is actually maturing. Yes, web programming is starting to be fun again.
The project: a web based running log
I have long wanted to have a better running log tool that I currently have. I currently use LyX, which is a WYSIWYM document processor. I absolutely love the product, but it falls short for my wishes.
Platform independence
One of them is platform independence. I always carry a laptop or mobile phone on the road. It is a bit silly to wait for me to have to go home to enter my training sessions. Furthermore, some of these data are weather-based. It is generally difficult to retrieve weather data from three days earlier in a place that you rarely visit.
Although my log still has the look and feel of a diary -or blog if you like-, there is a number of additional views that I want to be able to see. One of these is a table of checkpoints and their laptimes. These can even be put into graphs, to give the user a graphical representation of her progress. Another feature is the ability to export a log to a paper-based format, like PDF. I have a number of other, less well-rounded ideas.
Web based
This is simply the only feasible way for me to make an application platform independent. Since I am a lazy and/or busy guy, I am not willing to do everything myself, so I am choosing a well-rounded environment that I am familiar with. A CMS is good for a blog- or log-based format, and each CMS already has a decent article manager.
My weapon of choice: The Nooku framework
I chose to work with a non-standard framework for two reasons: my logging tool has quite some specific wishes and demands, and the CMS that I use (Joomla), has a decent, yet somewhat encumbered framework. The Nooku framework was set up by some of the main developers of Joomla 1.5, and they have given the aging CMS a new heart.
The Nooku framework allows me to rapidly develop added functionality for my web site and web apps. I am actually able to do something useful in those few and far-between hours that I am able to spend on pet programming.
Furthermore, the Nooku framework uses a lot of recent development techniques. I feel that I am actually learning something new while playing with code. You can teach an old dog new tricks.
The Nooku community
The Nooku community is a friendly one. I have had the pleasure to be welcomed by the people there. The rules are simple, he who contributes, has something to say within the community. Contributions can be done by code, documentation, or helping fellow programmers. Or rambling blog posts such as mine. My Nooku code is still in the Vogon Poetry regions (that is, sane people would cringe), so I will just be spreading the word.

It's always good to see people in a community coming together and standing up for each other. In this case, citizens didn't hold back punches or colorful metaphors when subduing the suspect. In fact, the stunned carjacker seems relieved when he is released into police custody.
Of the rescue, police are saying "He did an extraordinary deed, bending a locked car door in half of a burning car to extricate a trapped person. I feel this man deserves any and all commendation for his extraordinary life-saving measure that kept another from burning alive."
In fact, the crash was so bad that the SUV was totaled and errupted into flame. Thankfully, the boy was pulled to safety before the fire broke out. The driver has not yet been found.
In this quick clip, a mugger is seen attempting to snatch a purse from a reportedly pregnant woman. A vendor on the busy Chinese street jumps to the woman's defense, tackles the would-be robber and holds him down.

WASHINGTON (AP) - An initial Senate vote on whether to authorize a U.S. military strike in Syria has been postponed by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who cites what he calls "international discussions." The vote was supposed to take place Wednesday.
The delay comes amid signs of a possible diplomatic solution. U.S., Russian and Syrian officials today have all spoken of the possibility of Syria putting its chemical weapons supplies under international control, in preparation for the destruction of those weapons.

Reintroduced in the second DLC content pack for Grand Theft Auto IV, The Ballad of Gay Tony features the ability to use parachutes, allowing the player to base jump from buildings and helicopters in safety.
However, the nature of the parachute's turning system makes it possible for the player to actually achieve vertical lift, suspending their glide for an indefinite amount of time.
This glitch can be exploited from any height, as long as the player has the parachute active.
Pull back with the left thumb-stick, putting the player in the 'slow fall' position, then, rhythmically press the left and right triggers together. At a certain rate, the player begins to stop falling and start going up.
With sufficient altitude, it's possible to reach incredible heights, even leaving the game's skybox. However, if the button to turn is pressed too rapidly, the parachute will break, ensuring certain death, unless above water.
Glitch Fixed (TBOGT)
Due to a patch by Rockstar the glitch no longer works in The Ballad of Gay Tony. But it is still possible as long as you enter the invisible parachute glitch.

I have to admit that since FFG announced the release of Android: Netrunner, I have been more excited about this game than AGoT. And that's saying something. I was wondering if any other AGoT players are looking at trying out this game? WIsh I was at Gen Con, as I could be playing it this very weekend, but from what I understand it should be releasing to stores within a few weeks.
Anyone else looking to try out Android: Netrunner?

You know, NetRunner and the new Star Wars LCG both look like they will be a lot of fun. But, at this point, I already spend too much money every month between the AGoT and LoTR LCGs.
I am going to get the Edge of Empire RPG books when they come out, though. I enjoy D&D because the books are a one time investment, and the hours of enjoyment are only limited by your own imagination.
I stick to the two LCGs, the AGoT board game, and d20 style RPG games.
I would love to play all of FFG's LCGs…but I just can't justify the upkeep cost to myself. Part of it is my gaming personality; if I play, I like to be able to play competitively, which means always being up to date and having the most expansive card pool possible.
Star Wars LCG: FFG EC Regional 2014 - Top 4; Star Wars LCG: FFG Event Center Store Championship 2014 - Top 4; FFG Event Center Season One 2014 - Minneapolis Regional Game Night - Top 4; May the 4th Be With You 2013 - Second Chance Tournament Champion; A Game of Thrones LCG: Days of Ice and Fire 2013 - Joust Top 16

Already picked up the core set and am definitely looking forward to the Data Packs coming out. Loved Netrunner as a CCG.

NeuroSky ThinkGear technology digitizes analog electrical brainwaves to power the user-interface of games, education and investigative applications. A hurdle lies in distinguishing brain signal from the noise that comes from ambient electricity, muscle movement, etc. Such interferences are digitally filtered and eliminated. Raw brain signals are amplified and processed —delivering concise input to the device. Algorithms come from both NeuroSky as well as research institutions and universities, and currently include "attention", "meditation," and physical eyeblinks.
The MindWave device can be purchased from online retailers for approximately $80. Before using the device some software utilities will have be installed on the local machine, such as the MindWave Manager, which pairs the headset with a USB receiver called a dongle.
In addition, an open source utility, BrainOSC, needs to be downloaded and installed that converts the output of the MindWave to OSC.
Note that the IP address of the local machine needs to be used - localhost (127.0.0.1) does not seem to work if the machine is on a network. The port is set to the same port as specified in the Lingo code of the Adobe Director application that is receiving the OSC output. (In our demo we used port 3000).
Run the demo file OSCdecode.dir to inspect the data being sent by BrainOSC. There are 2 fields, "Last OSC Received" and "Full Trace". Note that the data is labeled.
From this demo we were able to construct our own application, by parsing the bundle and creating global variables of index items in the list. This allowed us to display those values in separate fields, or use the values to manipulate onscreen elements or trigger events, like playing a sound. The demo, MindWave.dir, is on the lab's fileserver in the 323 Groups directory, in the novel interfaces folder.
Here are the MindWave-specific data globals declared in the "Declare Globals" Lingo script:
global signal_quality
global contact
global attention
global meditation
global raw
global blink
global total_activity
global delta
global theta
global beta1
global beta2
global gamma1
global gamma2
Here is the parsing of the bundle in the on idle handler of the same script:
if (bundle.count = 16) then
signal_quality = bundle[2][2] & RETURN
contact = bundle[3][2] & RETURN
attention = bundle[4][2] & RETURN
meditation = bundle[5][2] & RETURN
raw = bundle[6][2] & RETURN
blink = bundle[7][2] & RETURN
total_activity = bundle[8][2] & RETURN
delta = bundle[9][2] & RETURN
theta = bundle[10][2] & RETURN
alpha1 = bundle[11][2] & RETURN
alpha2 = bundle[12][2] & RETURN
beta1 = bundle[13][2] & RETURN
beta2 = bundle[14][2] & RETURN
gamma1 = bundle[15][2] & RETURN
gamma2 = bundle[16][2] & RETURN
member("signal_quality").text = signal_quality
member("contact").text = contact
member("attention").text = attention
member("meditation").text = meditation
member("raw").text = raw
member("blink").text = blink
member("total_activity").text = total_activity
member("delta").text = delta
member("theta").text = theta
member("alpha1").text = alpha1
member("alpha2").text = alpha2
member("beta1").text = beta1
member("beta2").text = beta2
member("gamma1").text = gamma1
member("gamma2").text = gamma2
end if
This allows us to treat the values disceetly, to put them in separate fields, or to use the values to trigger events in the interface. Note that we check to see if the count of the items in the index equals 16 in a conditional statement, in case one of the values goes out of range, we loop back through the script until it is found again. If we don't do that the program will crash.
On a looping frame script we use the values to scale a sprite and to play a sound. The function value converts a string to a numerical value.
on exitFrame me
global attention
global blink
sprite(48).width = 200 * value(attention)
sprite(48).height = 200 * value(attention)
if (value(blink) > 0) then
puppetsound "Buzzer"
end if
go the frame
The demo file MindWave.dir and the supporting file BrainOSC are in Groups > 323 > Novel Inputs > MindWave on the file server.
Thanks to Ryan Walsh for assistance with this demo.

On Thursday, April 19, 2007, the DC Voting Rights Act (H.R. 1905) passed the House of Representatives 241-177. This is the first time in a generation that the House has passed a bill that works toward bringing voting representation to the nearly 600,000 Americans living in the nation's capital.
On May 1, 2007, Senators Joe Lieberman (I-CT), Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Bob Bennett (R-UT) introduced the DC House Voting Rights Act (S. 1257) in the Senate. On Wednesday, June 13, 2007, the DC House Voting Rights Act (S. 1257) passed in the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs 9-1! With broad bipartisan support, this gives the bill ever-growing momentum as it now moves to the Senate Floor.

Well, since the armchair
However, as your link notes, the measure of recovery wouldn't be the same as if the contract existed, since there would've been no negotiation and awarding full use of the work would be unjust enrichment. Instead, a court would probably say that there are no royalties due for past infringement, but that you don't get an unlimited right going forward to keep using the work.

I can't have anything bulky in my car at my destination, but could drop off my self-watering containers at someone's house on my way up and pick up stuff on the way back. I also have good access to a supply of 4 gallon buckets so could drop those off too. Eggplant seeds!!!! - *any* kind except Black Beauty and Swallow (I have those). Asian or smaller/thinner (not mini) eggplants preferred LARGE pots - over 5 gallons. Plastic preferred. Black Nursery pots ok. Tomato seeds for somewhat cooler weather or shade tolerant plants. ones that can go a little earlier, have a shorter growing period and the plant is a little smaller than normal. Plant supports for smaller plants. Such as peppers or eggplants. Like the ring systems that are used for flowers. I found that while eggplants don't need staking for support, I think they need staking for wind. Small amounts of fertilizer. Fish and seaweed or if someone had the garden tone for veggies that would work too. Or pesticides that would be good for spider mites yet be safe for food. |

I want a fragrant, yellow deciduous azalea, supposed to be very hard to grow from cuttings. If you have one that you can try to clone by pinning down a branch til it grows enough roots to be separated from the mother plant, please think of me. I will be offering this deal for the next few swaps or till I give up and buy one. Since I have very little space, in order to have room for this azalea I would have to remove a well rooted blueberry bush which you could have in trade. I have lots of blueberries and they are good, but I really want a yellow azalea. Also I have several different peonies that I could divide to sweeten the deal. See my have list. Don't be shy. I'd be happy to trade everything for a yellow azalea. Add saffron crocus bulbs....phlox David....I'd better stop before I offer someone my first born son. Did I mention that I really, really want a fragrant yellow azalea? |

Elective Courses
Columbia MBA and EMBA students build on their desire to make a difference with innovative ideas and business skills gained through a variety of social enterprise elective courses. Through coursework and cocurricular activities, students learn directly from leading academics in the field, as well as the many practitioners of social enterprise who come to campus as adjunct professors, guest lecturers, and panelists.
Instructors supplement lectures with a variety of teaching techniques that expose students to roles encountered by leaders and managers in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors, including team projects, case studies, guest speakers, and pro bono consulting projects.
One of the great strengths of the Social Enterprise Program is that it is an interdivisional program—many of its courses are drawn from or developed within other divisions of the School. In the online course selection guide and in the teaching schedule, students will find electives listed under such divisions as Business Economics, Finance, International Business, Management and Operations Management, as well as under Social Enterprise.

Indicates the beginning of a race, qualifying or practice session. It is waved after a caution to tell the drivers that the race has been restarted.
Indicates that a driver is entering the last lap of practice, qualifying or a race. It is waved continuously to all cars following the leader until the leader approaches the finish line.
Indicates the halfway point of the race.
Indicates there are 2 laps remaining in the race. The flags are rolled up and usually held vertically.
The flag is displayed to indicate that the leader has completed the required number of laps and the race is over. The checkered flag also ends the race for cars that have not yet completed the scheduled number of laps.
Signals drivers to use caution on the track and prepare to fall in behind the pace car after the start-finish line. The yellow flag is most often used following on track accidents but are also used for debris or oil that may have been put down on the track. When racing resumes, drivers return to the position they held after the last complete lap.
Indicates a dangerous situation on or near the track and the race is being stopped immediately. The red flag is generally used for conditions that can range from weather problems to accidents to surface problems such as oil on the track. A red flag often means the track has been completely blocked by an accident or debris and there is no safe route through the problem.
The blue or passing flag usually is an indication to a driver that there is a faster car coming up behind him and is about to overtake him. The driver that is about to be overtaken, should permit the faster car to pass safely. Used generally when drivers are being lapped.
Indicates a driver must return to the pits because of a rules infraction or disqualification. Starter will generally point at the car using another flag to indicate the car being "black flagged".
Used to alert a driver that their is unsafe and requires inspection or repairs.

From: Bill Steidtmann
Adam: Whadaya know for sure?
Bob: I finally outsmarted you.
Adam: Yeah, I bet.
Bob: Think about it... in your theology everyone gets saved, and in mine, only some people.
Adam: Okay...
Bob: Its not a question of whos right, its a question of whos wrong. If I go with your theology, but it turns out youre wrong, I go to Hell. But if I go with my theology, and Im proven wrong, I go to Heaven anyway. Therefore the safe bet is my theology, because I win regardless of whether Im right or wrong.
Adam: Im impressed.
Bob: Thank you. I thought that up all by myself.
Adam: But it sounds more like the work of an evil genius who sat down at the Devils craps table and tried to outplay God Himself while evading the faith security system.
Bob: Im just playing it safe.
Adam: Hedging your bet in Gods casino?
Bob: Whats wrong with that?
Adam: Jesus didnt die in a casino, and salvation is not a game of chance. The question is whether this plan of yours is just veiled unbelief. Would you agree that faith is only true faith when its 100% sure?
Bob: The part of me that isnt sure is the doubting part, so yes, faith is sure.
Adam: Are you?
Bob: Jesus died for everyone, therefore Jesus died for me, hence I believe.
Adam: Yet you also believe that your salvation can be lost at any time between now and when you die.
Bob: Of course I could lose it, but at least Im not a Calvinist whos never quite sure if I had it in the first place.
Adam: Then youre simply not 100% sure that you will be saved.
Bob: Im 100% sure of the present state of affairs, but not 100% sure of the future... or the past... I guess that explains why I keep accepting Jesus as my savior over and over and over at altar calls. I live in the moment.
Adam: So do tightrope walkers, but I bet their stress levels run pretty high up there.
Bob: Im just working out my salvation with fear and trembling.
Adam: The problem is that Bob relies on Bob to reach the end of the tight-rope, hence the fear.
Bob: And how do you reach the other side?
Adam: I realize that Jesus Christ is both the tightrope and the net.
Bob: Then youre doing it wrong! Wheres your fear?
Adam: Im not afraid of the possibility of my failure, Im afraid of the certainty of Gods success. His inevitable success in spite of my failures will demand changes in me, and I dont like to be changed, hence the fear.
Bob: Your faith is presumptuous. Mine is cautious, because you just never know.
Adam: The question is whether your cautious faith is the saving kind of faith.
Bob: What difference does faith make if, as you erroneously believe, everybody is saved regardless?
Adam: Everyone is saved eventually, not everybody is saved immediately. The difference that faith makes is that believers will be given life during the aions, and unbelievers will not.
Bob: Which proves you cant save everybody!
Adam: No, because both are given life after the end of the aions.
Bob: Youre just sidestepping the problems with your theology. By telling people that God will save everyone through Jesus Christ, you create apathy, causing them to not put faith in anything.
Adam: You mean anything except God and Jesus Christ, which is exactly what I want.
Bob: No, the problem is you generate spiritual laziness. I keep Hell front and center, so I dont lose my focus. My theology creates an overwhelming panic-stricken urgency, the way God intended for us to live!
Adam: Maybe this laziness, as you call it, is actually the peace which comes from being 100% sure. True saving faith eliminates the anxiety of not being sure of the future, and realizing that God will save everyone through Jesus Christ generates that saving faith. Your gospel is that God might save, and mine is that God will save. Yours depends on Self and freewill based chance, and mine depends on God and His plan to save all mankind. Yours produces fear, uncertainty, and doubt, and mine produces peace, assurance, and faith.

+ - Doctors Turn to Artificial Intelligence When They're Stumped->
tcd004 (134130) writes "Doctors are increasingly turning to big data and simple artificial intelligence when they can't find answers in traditional medical texts. Prodded by the new health care law to seek better ways to incorporate high tech into their everyday tasks, doctors are discovering the power of intelligent search engines and data mining. Artificial intelligence can be a tool to take full advantage of electronic medical records, transforming them from mere e-filing cabinets into full-fledged doctors' aides that can deliver clinically relevant, high-quality data in real time. And tech giants are jumping on the opportunity. "Electronic health records [are] like large quarries where there's lots of gold, and we're just beginning to mine them," said Dr. Eric Horvitz, who is the managing director of Microsoft Research and specializes in applying artificial intelligence in health care settings."

NEW JERSEY, May 10, 2013 ― President Obama traveled to Mexico and Costa Rica just days before the Cinco de Mayo celebration as part of his "Latin America" and "Jobs" tour, then headed to Texas Thursday morning.

These issues have undercut the robust relationship the
Former Vice President of Costa Rica Kevin Casas-Zamora told the Washington Examiner that the purpose for Obama's visit was unclear, and he wasn't sure what the President was trying to accomplish other than "probably … drumming up support for immigration reform" while others labeled the trip a "photo op."
Conservative pundits like Rush Limbaugh are saying that Obama was there to offer a "read between the lines" kind of speech to agree with Mexican nationals who believe
Was Obama trying to set the stage for the proposed North American Union when he said: "You see the difference between the world as it is and the world as it ought to be; between old attitudes that can stifle progress and the new thinking that allows us to connect and collaborate across cultures. That includes how we think about the relationship between our two nations"?

The Director of Hispanic Affairs at the Democratic National Committee could not be reached for comment.
It's no secret that Obama and the Democrats, as well as the Republicans, need the Hispanic vote to win the midterm elections in 2014. With many prominent Hispanic politicians siding with the Republican Party, the question remains as to which political party will openly accept the family values, independent entrepreneurialism, and strong sense of faith that Hispanic-Americans hold dear.
This new group of Hispanic voters has indeed become one of the most valuable pieces of political real estate since the introduction of women and African-American voters, and Hispanic voters have every reason to be just as skeptical as the Latin American leaders who expressed confusion, surprise and skepticism for Obama's renewed interest in Hispanics.

Not sure where to begin on my page that's gonna be about me...
I'm 21, I live in Joliet, IL. I'm originally from Chicago. I'm an odd one for sure, but most importantly, I'm a NKOTB and BSB fan, and an even bigger fan of Danny Wood, and I support Remember Betty by donating when I can and spreading the word. Haven't participated in a race yet, but soon, I'd love to when I am ready!
I don't know anyone personally that has breast cancer. But I did lose my mom to lung cancer on December 31st, 2010. She was also a Blockhead and a Danny girl, and I miss her a ton, losing her was extremely sudden for me. Seeing Danny work hard with Remember Betty reminds me that there's hope for a cure for breast cancer, a reminder to live healthy, and helps me feel a bit better through grieving the loss of my mom. There's so much I can thank him for, and I'll always help Remember Betty whenever I can! He's such an inspiration, and what he does means the whole world to me.
More on me? Well, you can always facebook or tweet me, or feel free to ship me a message! I don't bite, and I love having long conversations with other people and people like you! (Yes you there, reading this page. :) Long story short: I'm 5"1', I'm a gamer, aspiring guitarist, model, sword collector, lover of all things dragon related, tea-holic, anime geek, foreign language fanatic, Pagan, writer, and I work at a gas station to pay the bills since I voluntarily live on my own. I can lick my elbow, and make cricket sounds, though not at the same time.

The Woolwich Model
The Woolwich Model - Can citizens tackle anti-social behaviour? by Ben Rogers
At the heart of the RSA's thinking around the need for 21st century enlightenment is a concern about the gap between people's aspiration for their communities and society at large, and the way in which we act. As Matthew Taylor argued in the first of this series of pamphlets, closing this gap is going to require citizens to be more engaged; to do more in delivering services and tackling some of our most pressing problems.
The huge pressures on public spending – pressures which, as the 2020 Public Services Trust hosted by the RSA has highlighted, are going to last for many years – only makes the need to forge more productive relations between citizens and
services all the more urgent.
It is in this context that some of the RSA's recent work, including its new Citizen Power project in Peterborough, has been developed. Aiming to generate a practical understanding of sustainable citizenship, the RSA is working with the local authority and others in piloting new approaches to service delivery – in schools, drugs services and the arts – based on activity involving local people.

I have a USB router that seemed to fry 2 successive wireless receivers. I'd like to check this component before throwing it way, but I don't want to fry any more components. Perhaps the transformer is bad? Any ideas? |
Follow-Up Postings:
What makes you say they're fried? Is there smoke or have the lights disappeared? Does the device manager detect the adapter? Is this is a powered usb hub? It's possible the transformer's providing too much voltage I suppose - is it the original transformer? If you have a lot of stuff you might also be drawing too much power, which can also damage stuff. If you're using usb coffee mug warmers, lights or fans, that's a possibility. If you can get hold of a cheap usb cable you can cut up, you can check the voltage if you have a voltmeter - I will provide a link to the 'pinout' configuration below. If it's self-powered, I'd test it disconnected from the computer, to be on the safe side. One other thing, you've got a wireless adapter connected to this hub? I doubt that's the best approach, for something like that, I'd connect it directly to the computer. Another thing, you don't have a second computer connected to the hub do you? Unlike an ethernet router, you can't 'network' two computers through a usb hub unless the instructions specifically say you can, and I'm not sure why you'd want to. Some people try it so they can share a printer, but that's a no-no. If you have an ethernet router, you can share your printers via your network. So get hold of a dollar store or spare usb cable, carefully cut, strip and separate the wires, and measure between pin one (red wire) and 4, usually black. (if you know how to use the continuity tester and can get your probes to the pins on the connector, it wouldn't hurt to make sure the wire colours correspond to the right pins. You should see 5 volts dc and no more. Many 'wall wart' power supplies are unregulated, so you may get more than 5v so that could be your problem. Otherwise, usb hubs are very cheap and many are bus-powered (no transformer needed) if you don't connect too many things. You could also get an add-on usb card to install inside the computer, which will take its power from the pc supply. The advantage of these is you get an extra usb port on the card itself usually, so you could set up a removable drive with a usb connection which means you can dismount and eject it with the computer running, a handy thing. |
Here is a link that might be useful: USB pinouts
I found out why the USB router was frying everything. I was using the wrong transformer cord - 12V instead of 4.5V. :( |
What happened to the goodie powered wrongly with the lower volt cord ? |

LARAMIE, Wyo. — A former Laramie mayor who was recently hired for a city management job has entered a lawsuit in which the city is suing a newspaper and a city councilor over their efforts to get access to the former mayor's personnel records.
District Judge Jeffrey Donnell has granted a request from former mayor Jodi Guerin to enter the lawsuit.
The city sued after the newspaper and Councilor Joe Vitale requested information about Guerin's qualifications. She was hired as city recreation manager in March at a salary of $62,000 a year. The city is asking for the judge to declare whether it has to release the information.
Guerin requested to get into the lawsuit saying she wants to protect her interest in keeping the job.

Perfect land to construct a quality home development with municipal designated building use for multi homes on ¼ acre parcels.
A very rare 4 acre property with beautiful grounds in the most exclusive neighborhood of Cotacachi.
In the beautiful mountain village of Cotacachi a prime piece of land has just become available. If you are looking for DEVELOPMENT land for the Expat market on which to build your dream home(s) then you are duty-bound to consider this property, one of the prettiest pieces of land in the Ecuadorian Andes. This 4 acre (16,000 square meter) property has more than two hundred native-species trees and is blessed with spectacular views to two dormant volcanoes, one that has a peak often dusted with snow. An eight to ten foot wall surrounds the property.
Of course, there are other pretty pieces of land around Ecuador but this piece of land has a LOCATION that is ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE. This property is bordered by the La Mirage, the ONLY Relais and Chateau standard Garden Hotel and Spa in Ecuador.

The property really is within a 5-10 minute walking distance of the main street of Cotacachi.
Exclusive area.
