Hello, First time poster here. We recently had some landscaping added to our yard. Our landscaper planted 2 October Glory maples somewhat close to and inside the raised area of a new gunite retaining wall we built. The closest one is about 20 inches from the wall edge. Is this going to be a big problem in the future? I'm very paranoid about root issues since we had 8 very large redwood trees removed from our yard that were causing big ground/patio problems. He said they'd be okay since the roots go down instead of out (as in the case of the redwoods) but just thought I'd check with the experts here. Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Rubbish: all trees outside of deserts concentrate roots near the surface. While on the one hand coast redwood is basically the biggest tree in the world (when proportions reported for specimens no longer standing are considered) red maple is no small bush either - if you feel the planting locations cannot support full-sized trees growing over 60' high and so on then the maples are not going to work out. And in California I would probably not give the space to a cold climate tree like red maple, that does not require the California climate - instead planting something that I couldn't grow in most other parts of the country. If the red maples were their idea then that's two ways they are not giving you the best service (the first being the hogwash about them rooting down, away from the wall, in a manner completely different from the redwoods). Depending on what specific part of California you are in the maples won't necessarily be completely happy on your place as well. |
Thanks for the follow-up bboy. I'm in zone 9. Yeah the one that is about 20 inches from the wall makes me really nervous just with an expanding trunk over the years. I'll keep looking for alternatives and dig them up before the spring. |
I just saw this pot and laughed. Roots down? Huh? They're not tap root trees. I have a couple of October Glorys and Autumn Blazes. Huge root systems. Have you ever had a garden & tried to plant something around a maple? First, not only do you have to dig through a spiderweb of roots, the replacement roots will suck the life out of the soil. Hosta and Hellebores are your best bet. I just had a downspout water pipe run beside my house. I have a tornado-downed maple that was probably 30 years old. They guys are using a chain saw to cut through huge roots more than 15' away. I'd find a happier place for these trees, even if I had to sell them online. The advice above is wise. 20" OMG. what kind of a landscaper are these fellows? |
What did you end up doing? |

Green Metal Aegean Fish Decor
Love it but color isn't as vivid
Although the 2 shades of green are way more subdued than the online photo depicts, I still kept this fish. I like it and it works with my decor. Seems to be well made.
For anyone who paid attention to the product description....it states: "screws not included." So I wasn't sure what to expect upon receiving this piece - there wasn't anything to put together so I'm guessing it is an error in the description. The fish arrived as shown in the online photo...minus the bright colors.

KOCHI: There has been a drastic reduction in import of cashew nuts through the Cochin Port Trust (CPT) in January 2012 due to higher floor prices for the commodity in Tanzania, according to officials of major cashew processing and export companies.
Data available with the Cochin Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Creveals that cashew imports in January recorded negative growth. While overall imports through CPT in January showed year-on-year growth of 35.7%, imports of fruits, vegetables and raw cashew shrunk 60% in terms of weight during the same period. In January 2011, India had imported 734 containers of raw cashew, fruits and vegetables through CPT. This came down to 288 containers in January 2012.
"This year, the floor price set by the Tanzanian government for raw cashew has been relatively high in comparison with previous years," said Babu Oommen, owner of Kollam-based Alphonsa Cashew, which imported 12,000 tonnes of raw cashew from African countries like the Ivory Coast, Benin, Guinea Bissau, Ghana and Tanzania last year.
"We usually import 4,000-5,000 tonnes in January, but imported only 1,200 tonnes this time round. We could source the Tanzanian cashew in a price range of $900-$1,000 per tonne earlier, but this year the Tanzanian government set the price at $1,500 per tonne, which is much higher than the optimum price of $1,100 per tonne," Oommen said. "Unlike the West African countries where agents of cashew companies could collect raw cashew from rural areas, Tanzania has a different system in place. Here, the government collects all the cashew produced in the country and auctions it," said Anu S Pillai, vice-chairman of the Cashew Export Promotion Council of India (CEPCI).
"Over half the cashew processed in Kerala is imported," he observed. "One reason for the decline in production is the industrialization of traditional cashew plantation areas in Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Orissa. Currently, the produce from these regions is processed there itself," Pillai said.
On the consumer front, the relatively high price of cashew nuts last year resulted in consumers in the US and UK looking at alternatives like almond, hazelnuts, pecan, peanut, brazil and pistachio.

Many people insure their animals to protect them from risk. In particular, horse insurance involves one or more common policies that are taken out for various reasons. Individuals might need horse health insurance, horse mortality insurance, horse medical insurance, equine insurance, horse major medical insurance, horse life insurance, horses insurance, livestock insurance, horse liability insurance, horse farm insurance, equine liability insurance, and horse stable insurance. These policies provide protection for your horses, livestock, cattle, activities, and/or horse farm property. Regardless of your insurance needs, Ark Agency is your best choice. We specialize in insuring horses, dogs, cattle and other animals.
Horses are truly magnificent animals that can provide an owner and their family, friends, or clients with endless hours of fun, adventure, and companionship. Yet despite being fairly docile in nature, horses are still very large animals, and thus pose an inherent risk to themselves and those around them. Most often, horse-related injuries occur when those who aren't familiar with the behavior of the animal conduct themselves in way that either frightens or threatens the horse. Yet that's not to say that even the most experienced horseman isn't immune to an accident, which can often result in serious injuries to both the horse and the trainer. For this reason, we here at Ark Agency strongly recommend investing in both horse trainer insurance and horse medical insurance.
Our company has been in the livestock and horse insurance business for more than 35 years. We provide insurance and risk reduction plans to stables, breeders, and farms throughout the entire United States. When you work with us, you will benefit from a person-to-person approach with our services. We will answer all of your questions regarding insuring your horse.

One of the realities of being a parent is that from time to time, you are going to have a sick kid on your hands. Furthermore, occasionally you are going to have a really sick kid on your hands. If you are a parent that travels a significant amount for work (or I guess for fun, for that matter), then there are going to be times when you are on the road while your kid is sick at home. For my family, this is our reality this week. It is not an easy situation for anyone involved, so I am going to share a few of the things I have learned from living through this experience this week in case they may help someone else in the future. While it isn't exactly miles and points related, it is a very real situation that most families will face if travel is a big part of either parent's life.
While I will spare you all of the snotty nosed details, C has been sick off and on since before Christmas. This is pretty common for her during the winter, but over the past week her normal level of sick got a bit worse. Around that same time, Daddy, aka "The Man", was scheduled to fly out of town for four days for a business trip. This wasn't the kind of trip that you can really delay or cancel, so he left as scheduled, and I stayed home with C. The next day it was clear we needed a return trip to the doctor's office ASAP, and she was subsequently diagnosed with pneumonia. We then had a toddler with pneumonia home with mommy in one state, and dad at work a few states away. Not ideal. Add to that the fact that mommy has a full-time 8-5 job that she was trying to do while managing the sick toddler at home, and you have a hot mess. Here are a few things that we learned.
- Keep the "road warrior" parent informed of the sick kiddo's status, but don't give updates more than absolutely necessary during the workday. Let them call home when breaks in the work schedule permit. If their work was important enough to leave home for, it is important enough to focus on during most of the day. If you are the traveling parent, try to respond as quickly as possible when you do get updates from home. They may be important.
- If you are the one at home, don't make things sound worse than they are when you do talk on the phone. This can be really hard when you are the one at home and you are exhausted and overwhelmed, but try to resist the urge to let it all out on the phone. There really isn't anything the "road warrior" can do from thousands of miles away, and worrying them unnecessarily won't help complete the job for which they are away from home.
- Take notes at the doctor's office when they are giving you information about your sick kiddo. This really is decent advice regardless of whether or not the other parent is on the road, but be ready to give the road warrior parent as much verbatim information from the doctor as possible to keep them in the loop. They need to be able to help make treatment decisions from the road, so it is critical that information is relayed accurately.
- If you are the out-of-town parent, rest as much as you can while you are away during available down-time, because as soon as you get home, you are likely going to need to give the parent at home a break.
- In our case, C wasn't reacting very well to one of the medications, so her demeanor was not normal. I tried really hard to prepare my husband for what she was acting like before he got home, so he wouldn't be surprised and would be ready to help her as much as possible. That seemed to be pretty successful.
- If you are the parent at home with the sick kid, try not worry about anything but taking care of the sick kiddo (and other kiddos if you have more than one little one). As long as the house doesn't fall down, you can catch up on the rest of the stuff once your partner gets home to help you with the sick one. I'm not very good at following this advice myself, but I did set-up a "sick command center" where I was able to do my work while keeping C comfortable. Along those lines, if you are the one on the road, don't be surprised if things are a bit chaotic when you get home.
- If you are on the road, come home as early as you realistically can. We toyed with the idea of my husband flying back a night early, but logistically it just presented more challenges than it solved. Instead, he got some good rest the last night he was away, and came back ready to step-in.
- Send photo updates to the traveling parent. We do this anyway when one of us is out of town, but it was even more important for my husband while C is sick. I know he was very worried, and it was hard for him to focus on the job at hand, so photos helped keep her illness in perspective. She wasn't in critical condition – she just wasn't quite firing on all cylinders.
- Try to get help for the parent who is home with the sick kiddo. This is especially true if the traveling parent is going to be gone for an extended period of time, or there are multiple kids at home, or the parent at home is also trying to work while managing the kiddo. Thankfully, my parents were able to help me some while Daddy was away.
- If you are on the road and there are some logistics you can help manage from there, do it. For example, we had switched insurance companies beginning of the year, and we didn't yet have our new insurance cards in hand. Thankfully, this was something that my husband was able to manage from the road, so that I didn't have extra phone calls to make.
- Finally, if you are the parent at home, buy lots of suckers. Using bribes to get sick kids to take medicine is totally acceptable while the other parent is on the road. Our pediatrician said so.
We have a scheduled trip to bring our little toddler to see snow in the very near future, so we may be making some tough calls about that trip this coming week based on how she is improving. Health clearly always has to come first no matter where you are. Fortunately, the sucker/medicine bribe seems to have worked out quite nicely, so hopefully she will be on the mend quickly.
Have you had the experience of being on the road while you had a sick kiddo at home? What did you do that worked or didn't work?

ohh, I'm sorry the little one was sick. I'm hoping (for all of you) that she gets better real soon.
Feel better little C. That was my second daughter when she was in Asia with mom and I was home with the other one. Skype and planned phone calls worked well. Also known when ignorance is bliss helps. :). Number 3 is flying out in two weeks to Asia with mom but this time I will have 2 at home while i have a major wirk project Fingers crossed no one gets sick.
BTDT – pneumonia is no fun and doubly no fun during Cedar Season.
Get well soon Little C!
Feel better Little C!!
Excellent post, Mommy. Thank you. I can get miles and points info all over the web, anyday.
Oh, boo on being sick. Hope little C feels better! With 3 kiddos and being the working parent who travels, I've been in this situation many times, and it stinks. Great post!
I can empathize! This was a direct result of me quitting working for the man and working for myself, felt so quilty being away!
And lay her off them suckers please:-)
@Kathy K, thanks!
@Singapore Flyer, my fingers are crossed that all of your family members stay healthy!
@AlohaDaveKennedy, oh how I hated Cedar Season in Austin. It's not bad where we are now, but that was the worst. Pneumonia does stink, too!
@Michael, thanks!
@Maya, thank you!
@John, glad you liked it. I guess it is part of the "Mommy" part of "Mommy Points". Ha ha.
@CU, it is one of those inevitable things if you are a parent who travels. Thanks for the comment.
@gpapadop, good for you. I very much work for the man myself, and it is not conducive of being able to fully devote when kiddos need you for sure. As for the suckers, you are welcome to come squirt medicine down her throat while holding her like a squealing pig. Honestly though, we are not a candy family. This is a real exception – I guess that is why it is working so well!
Get her korean ginseung made for kiddo. Mine has not been sick ever since he took some.
So sorry to hear about your little girl being sick. After reading this post and your post about her traumatic illness after birth, I felt the need to encourage you to look into Functional Medicine for your little girl. I am not a doctor nor am I endorsing any particular product, but I am tthe mother of 3 children under the age of 6. Luckily, we found our functional medicine doctor when our oldest was only 2. I'm proud to say that none of my children have ever needed any antibiotics, and we live in the frozen tundra of South Dakota. We get our sniffles, sneezes and pukes, but God gave every human an amazing immune system and if functioning at optimum levels, the sniffles sneezes and pukes run their course and children can play through it. Hope this can help someone out there as much as it has helped our family. http://www.functionalmedicine.org/
>>>>>you are welcome to come squirt medicine down her throat while holding her like a squealing pig.
lol…been there, done that….miss those days…NOT:-)
Glad to know that she is felling better!
Typo "felling" should be "feeling"
[…] Little C seems to be beating pneumonia, so it looks like our adventures to snow (or at least to where snow should be this time of year) […]

I have been making some quality chimes and want to change the way I hang the suspension disk. I want to use small brass oval link chain. By small I mean each link would be 1/2" to 5/8" long. Does anyone know of a source for such chain that sells in 10 foot quantities as well as by the roll? I need to try it first before I commit to ordering by the roll. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Did you look at your local hardware? Our Lowe's has quite a few options for chain in all sizes. Try looking there! Good luck! |

There's a stained glass place near me that sells alot of different kinds of decorative, delicate chains . I buy their chains to hang chimes and suncatchers .The only problem is --- I "don't think" they have a website. I guess that's the way they keep their costs down. They sell tools and doo-dads barely above cost. It's called "Stained Glass STudio" in Brookfield , WI. IF you can't find any info - I'd be glad to help . :) Kathy |

review by Mr. DuLac Pro
The Grey 2011
Mr. DuLac's review:
Once more into the fray. Into the last good fight I'll ever know. Live and die on this day. Live and die on this day.
I took my sweet time finally watching this film because I thought it was just The Edge with wolves instead of a bear. The fact that the last movie that Joe Carnahan directed was The A-Team also didn't make me rush out to the theater to see this. I say that without actually having viewed The A-Team by the way. This film exceeded my expectations in every way possible.
The movie isn't even really about the wolves. The film's true theme is death. How an individual deals with all aspects of death. I realized this early on when the second death in the film had a very strong connection to the first, the first being the death of an animal. Ottway (Liam Neeson) helps both by comforting them while they pass on. After that the theme was clear every time it came up. Giving the dead respect, dealing with the death of loved ones, facing your own mortality, having a crisis of faith and deciding to die on your own terms. Needless to say this is the feel good movie of the year.
The fact that this so called thriller (almost art-house disguised as a thriller) treats death in such a way and makes the characters individuals instead of stand-ins also makes this stand out. You actually believe that the deaths matter to the characters, that each time one of them dies it's a setback for them.
The directing in this film is superb. The camera work and sound especially were used most effectively. First off the use of extreme closeups actually has a purpose in this film. When Ottway is off in thought and closes off the outside world we get close ups of Liam Neeson's face and it conveys exactly what the director wants us to get. You get glimpses of what is going on around him but you can't be entirely sure until Ottway's concentration is broken, then the camera pans out. Of course this isn't the first film to do this, it's just the first one in a while I've been conscious of it happening.
The sound is also used in the same way to great effect for Neeson's character. Sometimes just silence until he's brought back into the real world and we get bombarded by the noise pollution of a plane full of anxious men that want to go home for example. This effect goes even further in the woods, whether or not those wolf howls were realistic or not doesn't matter as they were effective.
I expected an ok action thriller with Liam Neeson duking it out with some wolves. Instead I got an extremely well directed film that deals with many different aspects of death in a mature manner uncommon in Hollywood films. It also has one of the most satisfying endings I've seen in a film in a while.

"Needless to say this is the feel good movie of the year."
Awesome lol
Loved this movie. The ending was perfect.
Exceeded all my expectations. I was quite surprised.
the film was out-fucking-standing...and the ending is absolutely mind-blowingly awesome.
the song (which is beautiful by the way) along with the poem being read at the end, is so fucking incredible, it jerks tears from my eyes every time..
absolutely great film
Wow... blew my expectations. Great review.
I was expecting a dumb action movie with men fighting wolves... and instead it made me cry :-(
Hope you find this interesting: letterboxd.com/buttholesurfer/film/the-grey/#comment-484479

Fuzion Frenzy 2 combines over 40 mini games with futuristic arcade action, custom tournaments, Xbox Live features and more to create the ultimate party game exclusively on Xbox 360. Play with your friends and family to find out who is the strongest among you.
Until four years ago, Fuzion Frenzy was the most popular tournament on Earth and was broadcast live to all corners of the world. However, due to the extreme competitiveness of the players, the leaders of Earth banned it, fearing its influence on the general population.
Recently, however, the world's leaders have struggled with the problem of overpopulation, and have come up with a plan for the citizens of Earth to immigrate to space. To encourage immigration, the leaders have brought back the Fuzion Frenzy tournament, but with a change—they have set up game zones on various other planets. The people of Earth welcome this news, especially the announcement that the leaders have reinstated the six most famous players, who are returning with renewed enthusiasm

Astronauts from NASA will land across the Valley to participate in events for the public in the coming weeks. The astronauts, specifically chosen by NASA for these events, are in Arizona to promote and raise awareness on space programs and exploration — just as the state's "SciTech Festival" fires its boosters.
• On Feb. 20, Dr. Leroy Chiao, a former NASA astronaut, will be on hand for the 2013 John J. Rhodes Lecture at the Tempe Center for Arts. The lecture is presented by Arizona State University's Barrett: The Honors College, and is titled "Warp Speed: How Technology is Accelarating and the Importance of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math Education." Chiao, apart from his work at NASA, has three degrees in Chemical Engineering and a security clearance for nuclear weapons work at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The event will start at 7 p.m. (it ends at 8 p.m.) and is free to the public.
• On Feb. 24, Capt. Sunita Williams and Dr. Richard M. Linnehan will land at the Arizona Museum of Natural History in Mesa. As part of the Arizona SciTech Festival and the ongoing ISS Destination exhibit, Williams and Linnehan will speak and greet the public on Sunday. The event will start at 1 p.m. and end at 4 p.m. At 1:45, Williams will discuss her experiences with NASA while Linnehan will welcome the public in the exhibit and give out autographs and take photos; at 3 p.m. the astronauts will trade places. The event will also feature the ASU Astronomy Club, ASU Center for Meteorite Studies, the East Valley Astronomy Club, Mesa Community College Geology Club and NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which will be on hand to host space-related activities for the public to enjoy. There is a $10 fee for the general public and it will be free for AzMNH members.
• On Feb. 25, Linnehan will attend the East Valley Aviation & Aerospace Alliance Networking Event at the Commemorative Air Force Museum in Mesa. The event will run from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. and is free to the public, although RSVP is required. The purpose of the event is for people to network, recruit and to be educated. Linnehan will speak at the event about his experiences with NASA and later will sign autographs. To RSVP, contact Carol Schmitz at firstname.lastname@example.com. The event is sponsored by the Commemorative Air Force Museum and the Mesa Chamber of Commerce.
• On Feb. 26, astronaut Don Petitt will attend ASU SkySong in Scottsdale for a lunch presentation. Although the event is open to the public, it is more targeted to business and academic leaders, as the presentations and panel discussions will be about how to get projects involved with International Space Station and for educational opportunities.
• On Feb. 28, astronaut Catherine "Cady" Coleman will attend Mesa Community College's Southern and Dobson Campus to talk about her experience onboard the international space station. The event will run from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and will include a talk with Coleman, a chance for autographs and planetarium showings. The event is free and open to the community.
Mike Hutchinson, the project manager for EVAAA wants the public to attend his and other events to learn more about the space program and have a chance to be part of it. "For me, I remember the space program was a big part of our lives during the 60s, I remember where I was when we landed on the moon. I really want for younger generations to be able to share this feeling," Hutchinson said.
Abel, a senior studying journalism at Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, is an intern for the East Valley Tribune. Contact him at (480) 898-6514 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Well, I would buy this again, but it has been DISCONTINUED!!! And they are not planning to replace it. However, if you can find some stores still stocking it it's worth a try as it is a nice, medium to light coverage every-day type foundation. Just one word of warning, the pump SQUIRTS product about 2 metres. I had to wash my top the first time I used it!
Great for sensitive skin. Nice colour and coverage (though i'd love something a little heavier, and perhaps 8 colours instead of 4). Great to finally have a foundation out there thats all natural, and this smells nice too. Good work jurlique!
I liked this enough to buy probably but I won't as I had to combine the two lightest shades....too expensive! It seems to me like there should be an in-between shade..1 is too light for me and 2 is too dark....how about introducing a 1.5, Jurlique, then I'll be really happy! Lovely coverage and love how it's not loaded full of chemicals!
LOVE IT, makes me all glowy, hard to do nowadays that I'm 33. Sigh. :)UPDATE: Broke me out.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
EDIT: After Jurlique discontinued this foundation, I tried Bare Minerals, and I really like it! Works great with all my other Jurlique products. JURLIQUE REVIEW: I just bought Jurlique's Naturally Flawless foundation in the 02 Diamond shade, and I really like it so far! I had been using Aveda's Base + Balance foundation, and didn't know where to turn when it was discontinued. I've had great success with Jurlique's whole skin care line, though, so I considered trying the foundation, and the positive reviews here helped boost my confidence to try a $55 foundation (thanks, ladies)! I'm really glad I tried this stuff, and wish I'd done so long ago. Just like other Jurlique products, it applies easily and makes my skin feel and look smooth and wonderful. The coverage is somehow both full *and* natural looking (guess that's what they mean by "demi-matte" in their description). I went out with a male friend (who doesn't typically notice things like makeup) on the first day of wearing this, and he complimented me several times on my nice looking complexion. I'm not sure yet what to do in terms of powder, though. I'm still using my Aveda powder over this foundation right now, but may try using Jurlique's Rose Silk Dust instead to see if it offers a better compliment to the foundation. Jurlique is the only line I've found that doesn't irritate my skin--I wish they'd make even more types of makeup!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I should have known that Jurlique would not fail with this foundation since every product they make is amazing. Great flawless finish. Makes my skin look smooth and never any breakouts. You can build the coverage. I love it and it smells like roses. AWSOME
The best foundation I've ever tried. The colour is natural, smells nice, inexpensive, especially for Jurlique, it blends easily, has a lovely texture and feels smooth and comfortable on.
I bought this at the Jurlique counter for AUD$45.00 (30ml pump jar)
My shade is 02 Diamond
This is the first foundation that I came across which doesn't break me out. Because I have eczema so a lot of foundations I have tried caused my skin to break out. This foundation is semi-matt, contains natural ingredients and smoothes out the uneven skin tone.
It also gives you a very natural look. Overall I'm quite pleased with this product.

A West Side Market vendor will open on Wednesday for the first time since the fire on Jan. 30.
Cleveland breweries help out West Side Market vendors after fire with beer sales
CLEVELAND - The more beer two local breweries sell, the more money goes to help the West Side Market vendors get back on their feet following last week's fire.
The Market Garden Brewery has a brand new beer on tap. It's called the West Side Market Recovery Lager. The brewery is donating 20 percent of the sale of that beer to West Side Market vendors.
"Since the fire, here at Market Garden Brewery, 38 percent of our sales has been the West Side Market Recovery Lager. I think people are supporting it because they love the West Side Market so much," said Sam McNulty, West Side Market partner.
The Great Lakes Brewing Company is also helping out. The brewery is bringing back its Butcher's Brew. That's a lager specially made to celebrate the West Side Market's 100th anniversary.
All proceeds from those sales will benefit the market.
"We would never have come to the neighborhood if it hadn't been for the West Side Market, so we have a lot of emotional bond with them, in addition to the business bond that we've developed over two decades," said Great Lakes Brewing Company co-owner Patrick Conway.
The Great Lakes Brewery hopes to raise $10,000 for the West Side Market vendors.

With its almost unrivalled production efficiency, Braviken Paper Mill outside Norrköping combines technology and tradition with keen environmental awareness.
If you flick through a product catalogue, or read a pink sports or financial newspaper in one of Europe's major cities, there is a good chance you'll be holding a product from Braviken. Over 80 per cent of all the paper produced here is exported to markets outside Sweden.
Braviken is in an intensive period of restructuring, with the proportion of magazine and book paper climbing steadily. Nevertheless, newsprint remains an important part of the business.
Braviken Paper Mill is also located alongside Holmen's new sawmill, creating a bio co-location with environmental solutions for the future. The paper mill supplies the sawmill with energy and heat, and in return it gets raw material in the form of wood chips. Residual bark and wood shavings are then used for energy production and district heating.
Holmen Paper ceased production on PM 51 at Braviken Paper Mill during the third quarter of 2013.

a GUTTER planter!!!
http://newworldgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/guttergardens.jpg Surfing, I found this pic. Unfortunately, I have vinyl siding. :(
Here's one for inside the house:
I really like the small fence versions. Gonna try these:
We have a greenhouse for my son & he's into hydroponics - I bet he'll incorporate this since you have a drain hole & you can buy the gutter guards where he cann make holes for the plants! Guess you just can't drive down the road w/o picking up EVERYTHING!!! lol |
Follow-Up Postings:
What neat ideas!! I'm with you--I love the one on the wall! Thanks for posting those sites! |
- Posted by garden2garden z8FL (My Page) on Fri, Jun 25, 10 at 11:17
Tht is a such a great idea. My DH has been telling me forever he's gonna grow some lettuce like that but he hasn't gotten around to it yet, I've got to show him that picture, maybe it will inspire him. It's perfect for people who don't think they have the room for a garden. You could grow a lot of veggies (or whatever) in a very small space. I wonder if you coudn't build a free standing rack of some sort to hang them on. You gould use both sides. I love this. You can cut them to the length you need. Great windowboxes, too. And you can paint them or decorate them to suit yourself. It's true if you're working with junk you have to pick it up when you see it, I think that's part of the fun. Also, you never know, someday you may not be able to get out and about so much, so at least you'll have some things around to work/play with. |
very cute! |

Thanks for surfing and finding this idea!! I, too will show my DH, I especially like the idea of having lettuce easy to get to and also decorative. Now to convice my DH, hehe NanaGrandma |
- Posted by luna_llena_feliz 5B (My Page) on Sat, Jun 26, 10 at 1:52
I have seen gutters used as planters before but they weren't as attractive as the ones you found. I like the idea of hanging them on a wall or fence for planting. They would be great along the edge of a deck railing too. TFS! |
- Posted by concretenprimroses 4B NH (My Page) on Sat, Jun 26, 10 at 9:29
Good idea! I think of my mom who really can't bend over to plant any more. Even her pots are getting difficult. Kathy ps. My house doesn't have gutters so I won't be changing any. I guess there might be used ones at 2nd hand building supply stores. |

text: Product ReviewsOverall rating: Posted By: Clovis verified customer Lovely colors in Flourite Chips!October 1, 2013 I ordered these chips a few weeks ago thinking I would use them on a gift project I had going. I was pleased that the colors were very vivid and pretty and the chips were fairly uniform and had blunt edges. I reordered them when a sale started & the second strand of these I received disappointed me. Although the colors were pretty; the chips were not even; a lot of the chips are drilled off-center and the edges are quite sharp. Not my idea of a nice chip strand; so this is why I cannot give this item a 5 bead rating. I guess you just have to take your chances on which strand you get.

Shop the entire Paul & Joe cosmetics line here!
They say good things come in threes and that's definitely the case when talking about Paul & Joe Cosmetics latest 2012 Fall/Winter Love Story launch. The collection will bring new colors, textures and products to celebrate the love affair so many Paul & Joe cosmetics devotees have had since the brand began ten years ago. Just to keep us on our toes they are launching their fall collection in three parts with the first being three Face Color Powders to add definition and on trend color to the cheekbones. Each of the Autumn Face Colors include two complimentary shades that add definition on their own or work harmoniously when blended together. Of course the shades are all to-die-for but as usual we're blown away by their adorably cute prints on the outer packaging which is always taken from patterns seen on that season's Paul & Joe apparel line. Inside an embossed outline of two love birds kissing makes it a beautiful piece to display on your vanity!
From left to right: Les Tourtereaux 079 (deep bordeaux and a soft rose for a girlie girl), True Love 080 (Cool coral and the perfect pink for a classic complexion) and Inseperables 081 (tangerine and a natural peach for a flirty effect).
Peter Thomas Roth Hair To Die For Treatment » -
Shop the Peter Thomas Roth skincare line here!
What do Snow White, Cinderella, Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston all have in common? Great hair of course! As a youngster these make believe characters made me dream of long, flowing locks and as soon as I saw Julia Roberts fling around that full and bouncy hair in Pretty Woman, it made me realize what a healthy head of hair looks like. Not all of us are blessed naturally with a great mane so we rely on products to help create that luscious do. This story does have a happily ever after because of the latest breakthrough product to come out from Peter Thomas Roth..... the Hair To Die For Treatment!
Described as a 'gem in a bottle' by Rachel Zoe's The Zoe Report for any person who experiences thinning, damaged or dull locks; its unique Tri-Phase Complex™ targets the root and absorbs quickly into the scalp to work on the three stages involved in the hair growth cycle. Appearance of the hair is thicker and stronger and fuller with each application. Simply apply one dropper to wet or dry hair twice daily into the scalp where help is needed and watch and feel as your mane is transformed. Also just in from the brand is Peter Thomas Roth Glycolic Acid 10% Toning Complex which gently removes dead skin cells and resurfaces the skin therefore minimizing teh appearance of those dreaded fine lines and rough skin surface. Simply apply with a cotton ball as needed and can be used as a cleanser or after the use of one as a toner. Exciting new additions from one of the foremost leaders in anti-aging skincare. The End.
I love it when friends share their beauty secrets with each other. Recommendations from someone you trust are like gold and recommendations from beauty editors or tastemakers is even better. After all, trusted friends and industry pros will never steer you wrong. As I was flipping through the pages of this months Harper's Bazzar (with Rhi-Rhi on the cover) I fell upon their 'Beauty Diaries' feature showcasing different fashionable women of all ages sharing their secrets to getting better with age. DJ and entrepreneur Hannah Bronfman is a 20 year old stylish gal who also happens to have great taste in beauty. Not only does she swear by By Terry's Baume de Rose to keep lips soft and supple but also Nuxe Paris Huile Prodigieuse Multi Use Dry Oil Shimmer on her legs to condition the skin and enhance them with a subtle glow. Tom Hanks wife Rita Wilson was also featured in the 50's section sharing that her signature scent is Tom Ford's Black Orchid. She also doesn't let gray roots get her down, but instead fights them off in an instant with Oscar Blandi's Colore Root Touch Up & Highlighting Pen.

PARKER, Colo., Jan. 23, 2012 – Two-time U.S. Solheim Cup Team Captain Patty Sheehan will make a special appearance at the Denver Golf Expo at the Denver Merchandise Mart on Saturday, Feb. 11. The LPGA Tour and World Golf Hall of Famer will be on-hand at the 2013 Solheim Cup booth at the Expo to promote the event, which will be played at Colorado Golf Club in Parker, Colo., Aug. 13-18.
The 35-time LPGA winner and six-time major champion captained the 2002 and 2003 U.S. Teams, leading the 2002 unit to victory in Edina, Minn. Sheehan, a 1993 Hall of Fame inductee, also played on the U.S. Solheim Cup Team in 1990, 1992, 1994 and 1996.
Sheehan posted a 5-7-1 record as a member of the U.S. Team in her four Solheim Cup appearances, winning 5½ points for her squad in the process. The U.S. Team held a 3-1 record in the five competitions in which Sheehan played, and she is 4-2 as a player and captain.
Sheehan will appear at The Solheim Cup booth from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. MT, where she will sign autographs and be available for media interviews. Please request one-on-one interviews with Sheehan ahead of time, if possible.
There will also be prize giveaways at the booth, including tickets to the 2013 event and a framed 2011 Solheim Cup pin flag signed by the entire U.S. Team, Captain and Assistant Captains.
The Solheim Cup combines the tradition and prestige of the game of golf with passion for one's country. This biennial, trans-Atlantic team match-play competition features the best U.S.-born players from the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour and the best European members from the Ladies European Tour (LET).
The Solheim Cup is named in honor of Karsten Solheim, the founder of Karsten Manufacturing Corporation, which makes PING golf equipment. In 1990, the Solheim family, in conjunction with the LPGA and the LET, developed the concept and became the title sponsor for The Solheim Cup, professional golf's international match-play competition for women. Held every two years, the event has grown into the most prestigious international women's professional golf team event. The Solheim Cup is the most highly coveted trophy in women's professional golf team competition; some of the most memorable moments in women's golf have happened during one of The Solheim Cups, and berths on the U.S. and European teams are highly sought after by players from both organizations.
The 2013 Solheim Cup will take place Aug. 13-18 at Colorado Golf Club in Parker, Colo. The European Team enters the competition holding the Cup and will need 12 points to retain it, with the U.S. Team needing 12½ points to regain the coveted Waterford Crystal prize. The U.S. squad holds an 8-4 lead in the series, which began in 1990, and is undefeated (6-0) on U.S. soil.

Just a quick note to say, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, to you and yours! We have WONDERFUL weather today - glistening,clear blue and sunny skies. No humidity and a great breeze. The temp is perfect, even with the breeze. Couldn't ask for a better day. (Why am I not on a boat somewhere!!)
My Mom isn't with us any longer, but I know she is still having a wonderful day. I thank God that he shared her with me for the time that she walked this Earth, and gave her the courage,love and wisdom, that she gave to me. I pass that foward to you, and hope everyone is enjoying their day. gneegirl |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hope your day was beautiful, gng, although your loved ones are in heaven! If you recall, my son is also in heaven. I called my mom in AZ, met my family at church, afterwards we went to my DD's home for lunch, then we had reservations at 3:45 PM to see "Earth" in Hollywood. It was a blessed day. In the morning, I called my DD to wish her a Happy Mother's Day. She said my GS, age 12, was making breakfast for her. Then, she whispered and said, he has been making breakfast for the past two hours! Anyway, she finally got to eat, LOL! |
Hi Eloise. Yes, we do have special ones smiling down on us, and at this point, I'm glad we have the strength to look up and smile back. It's tough to do that on days like Mother's day, but we have been given a gift that allows us to do that. Big hug to you on that one! I'm lmao at your DGS. I guess your daughter had brunch, huh. But then, lunch afterward...OMG. What a full day. I hadn't heard about "Earth". I know you had a great time spending the day with your family. I ended up cleaning out my hall closet - a real Mother's Day gift to me, for sure. It really needed it. I wish I didn't like all my coats, but I actually think I have a thing for coats and jackets. Some are from %%**## years ago!! Now at least they are all on hangers and not stuffed and crumpled on the floor. Luckily I have more 2 extra closets for that - whew! After that, I cleaned me up and visited outside with my neighbors. It was such a beautiful day, I decided to get a new propane tank and clean up the grill for dinner. Too bad I was too pooped to cook anything on it. I ended up grabbing a bratwurst that my neighbor had cooked on her grill. The day turned out great though. Good to hear from you! gneegirl |

The project targets 12-16 years old students. The working language is English. The duration of the project is six months. The goal of the project is to increase students' motivation and interest for Mathematics, to stimulate their investigative spirit and curiosity by combining common mathematical contents of the curriculum with aspects of day-to-day life in different parts of Europe, using concrete objects as well as representations of mathematical concepts. It is also intended to facilitate mutual understanding through getting knowledge on the historical and cultural contexts partners live in.
We are meeting online tomorrow, February 15th, for one more videoconference, to celebrate our project. Despite the snow and blizzard, I hope the Internet can bring us tomorrow one more time! The preparations are ready: riddles, songs, videos... Looking forward to it!
We are finalists in the European Prizes competition! We are very happy and...anxiously waiting for the final result! Congratulations to all the students and teachers!
As today is June 30, our project is officially finished. I will close it as soon as the evaluation is ready. I am already working for the final Joint Report. I would like to express my gratitude to all the participants, teachers and students, for their work and their involvement, despite technical difficulties for some schools and difficult communication for others. Special thanks to my old partners Eva, Erik, Maria Teresa and Valentina for accepting to work together again. It was a real privilege having you as partners once more. I hope it was, all in all, a...
We decided to use Voicethread for students' evaluation, to meke it more personal and creative. Almost all the partners managed to have the pupils record their opinions, despite teenagers' natural shyness, which was a great succes! The comments are happy, melancholic, funny or touching. Here it is!

Chic Shacks: 6 Stylish Sheds, Barn Homes & Hermit Cabins
There was a time when 'rustic cabin' meant 'cheap vacation' – but a true retreat in this day and age is, for many of us, finding elegance in natural simplicity and luxury in rural solitude. One company has made a mission of catering to precisely those people who want to escape stressful city living and be alone somewhere in the woods of a modern-day Walden at the drop of a hat (or at least the lowering of a crane). However, there is more than the Swedish firm Arvesund than simply escapism: they have developed a line of prefabricated barns and sheds that work for anything from the most traditional purposes (backyard storage spaces, hunting cabins or workshops) to creative contemporary uses (small garden studios, guest quarters or even second homes)

[ By Steve in Gadgets & Geek Art , History & Factoids , Travel & Places . ] Custom cars, trucks, motorhomes and recreational vehicles were all the rage during the 1960s and 1970s but certain "carhouses" crossed the line into outrageousness as they criss-crossed the country. Among the most eyebrow-raising of the bunch was a VW Beetle RV conversion known variously as the Bugaroo or the MiniHome.

Here is a fast paced Christmas math game I created for my preschooler!
Start with all the counters off the board.
Players take turns rolling a die and covering up a certain number of spaces according to the number rolled on the die.
The first player to completely stuff their stocking (fill all their spaces on their board) wins!
Alternative Directions
Instead of using a die, we also played this game with a penny. Heads cover up two spaces. Tails cover up 1 space.
