Here's a progress report on my sans. I am seeing new growth on many of my new plants. I was very excited this morning to find new pups on Midnight shine and Masoniana Variegate. Wow, I didn't expect to see new pups til spring. Futura Gold Flame, Futura Asahi, Bantels Sensation are all showing new growth too. Everything is inside now since the night temps are below 60. On the other hand, one of my new hahni's is in intensive care, it has a bad case of rots. It was the one from Smoleys, the others all seem to be just fine. Also received several new plants recently from GW members. A nice assortment of Hahni's, Streaker, Silver Frost, Silver Marginata, Jade Dwarf Marginata, Futura Gilt Edge, Lavranos 23251, Ballyi Minnie, a very cute clump. I have several new plants from Smoleys, Druid Hill, Francissii, Parva Gilt Edge.
I really appreciate the people that have shared plants with me. I love my sans! So, everyone, how are your plants doing these days? Do you have them moved inside yet? Any new plants to brag about? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Nice report, Barbara. I can tell you're now HOS (hooked on sans). Ha! Can you cut way any bad tissues on your plant with rot? Hopefully it is just a leaf problem. |
Nice report, Barbara. I can tell you're now HOS (hooked on sans). Ha! Can you cut way any bad tissues on your plant with rot? Hopefully it is just a leaf problem. |
Hi Mike, Yes, definitely HOS! I have been giving away some of my other plants to make room for my sans. The rotted one is dwarf jade marginated. Luckily, I got two of them. That plant had some damage down in the center when I got it. Also, we had a monsoon week, some rain every day plus humidity that seemed to be a hundred percent. I think that's what did it. It is shocking to see how fast that rot can set in. Stush warned me about it. He was right. I just pulled off some soggy leaves and I'm hoping for recovery. It's just a lesson to learn, I guess. |
Barb, That rot in the center may be a good thing. It makes the plant pup out. But first get some household cinnamon. No sugar mix. Just sprinkle it over the rotted parts. Next time to water, you can water in or not. I does help. Stush And yes it does get quiet here starting this time of year. but of course we just watch. |
Thanks, Stush. I will try it. Just sprinkle it in the center? I was wondering about using some peroxide too. |

No, no peroxide pls. just cinnamon. I wouldn't water it for a while either. |
Thanks Karen, will do just that. What's going on with your plants? |

Hello bmock! I am not sure where to put these Sans!! Some are inside, some still outside despite some very cool night. I have moved the outside ones close to the house so they are a little sheltered. I notice they will keep pushing up pups for a while. Seems they get the "energy" outside and began producing those underground rhizomes. Sometimes these don't appear above soil until after they are brought in in the fall. |
Hi Chris, It is encouraging to see those pups sprouting. Makes me feel like they are going to live.. It did seem like there was a growth spurt after they came inside. It won't be long til cold weather. |
I have kilt more than one sansevieria by accidentally watering the crown in the wintertime as water "jumped out" when I lowered the watering can spout. If I water in the winter, I recommend putting water in the saucer and letting the plant draw it in from below. Also, windows are common places to put plants in the winter. That's fine if there are NO DRAFTS! Cold + water + drafts = death... even drafts from blower fans can be fatal. |

Okay, good advice, Mike. i sure don't want any more of these kilt! |
Barb, When you do have to water. The peroxide in a watered down mix is helpful. The average store bought peroxide is 3%. Mix 4 to 1 (4 water to 1 peroxide) is good for first watering of rotted sans. Don't wet the leaves. So I've been told. Truth be known, It never helped me. The cinnamon has helped. |
Thanks Stush, I appreciate the help. I will be surprised if it lives. We'll see. Have you been moving plants into the house? I'm so glad to get mine in away from the rains. |
on going every year. My wife keeps giving me that look when I bring in the plants but says nothing. I got most in but some of the tropicals still out. |

Stush, they are cleaning the air, so that's something... Hopefully I have at least a month before the f-word gets in the forecast, averages smaverages. Made it to late Nov. last year. Good luck to everyone when the time comes! It will be an interesting cram here, with decorative things that usually occupy some spaces put away until spring. I've been forced into more reality time lately, cleaning and dealing with all of the junk that seems to multiply when one's not looking. It sucks being the only person with the magic to make things go where they belong. Gave Martha Stewart ample opportunity to show me how to do it right, but I'm starting to suspect she's not coming and I had to do it all wrong, alone. Oh well, her loss. I remain clueless and inept. My fav magnet: "Dust testing in progress. Please do not disturb the samples." |
Stush, "That look" has always been known as "The eyeroll" at our house. Says more than words. But seriously, we all have hobbies and we have to tolerate each other's stuff. Purple, you are too funny. I wish Martha Stewart would come by and fix my housekeeping too. I always thought dust was a protective coating, not to be disturbed. |
Barb how was your experience w/Bob Smoley? Did you like the plants? how soon you received them(some people had issues)? Inna |
I am lucky to have never had a problem with Bob Smoly. It does happen I guess. I never had a problem with Glasshouse Works and then they sent me the wrong plant. I called and they said to just reorder. My though, why. You may just make the same mistake again and I am out on the first order. Then Hirts Greenhouses did the same thing only they really didn't care to even know why. So it does happen if you order long enough and large enough. But so far so good with Bob. I didn't report it to Garden Watchdog because I took into account all the orders and how good I was treated in the past. Glasshouse is noted for adding a few extra plants, as well as Smoleys. Stush BTW I do enjoy reading the above post of house cleaning. |
Hi there elichka, I did have a good experience with Bob Smoley. Nice sized plants, and they arrived within two weeks. He responded to an email I sent him too. It might be a good idea to inquire about availability before ordering. I don't think he keeps the website up to date. There are some on my wishlist that are out of stock. I lost a jade marginated hahnii from him a couple of weeks after I got it, don't know if it was my error or his. That's the only casualty so far. Good luck with your shopping. Barb |
Thank you Stush and Barb for your insight regarding Bob Smoley. I'm not planning to order now, can't find place for all my plants. Some of them still outside on a covered porch. We have mild nights(knock on wood). All my Sans are inside all over the place. Inna |
Hi Inna It's easy to get too many plants to fit the space. I am going to have to be careful about that too. Spring is probably the best time to order anyway. Is there anything in particular that you are looking for? |
Well I would like to get my hands on concinna, both regular and dwarf type LAV 5949 and LAV 5933. i don't know why I like them that much, maybe because of their size;) Inna |
Inna, I'm familiar with those. Someone generously shared with me this summer. I have the dwarf form. I don't see any new growth on it yet. I will share some starts eventually. Some of them are slow growers though, it may take some time. Nice plant though. |
Barb, thanks. I heard they are very slooow. let see if i still have the same itch by spring Inna |

I saw at the local walmart a case that looks like it could fit all the guns u described at once.. It's like 10 bucks so it's not gunna be a bad ass warrantied for life pelican but it looks to be durable enough for storage and taking to the range. If u wanna get a pelican just find one on the Internet. Oilfield/gasfield suppliers usually carry pelican cases for sensitive metering equip. A pelican case the size of the case I saw at walmart would be almost $200 I'm sure

i hope it doesn't get too bad either.
Do you think it could have started early because you are carrying twins?
Everything is starting earlier and worse this time. It must be the twin thing. With my other pregnancies, I only got carpal pain in my right hand. Now it's both.

Hello everyone :)
I just acquired my first pleiospilos nelii and I am in love! I was excited to find it at our wonderful conservatory grown by a very reputable grower. I was able to choose one just about to flower and excitedly watched it get ready to bloom. Then, just as it seemed about to open, the flower became gradually drier until it turned completely brown. It never opened to my knowledge. I am wondering what might be the cause and what this means for the plant? All the literature I have been able to find discusses the lighting, water and temp preferences but I can't find anything about this specific situation. I have given it about 20 drops of water and taken a few pics since I brought it home about 1 month ago but have not bothered it otherwise. Also, does anyone know if this flower head will still produce seeds? I'm assuming not since it did not open and had no chance of being pollinated... I can post pics if that will help - thank you so much! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Can't say for sure, but you said you've been keeping it on the dry side. At least one source I've read says P. nellii need some water in winter. I know that my own are growing outside now in the soil and got a lot of rain about a month ago. Most of them are doing quite well, flowering frequently and dividing or growing new leaves. Some of them have rotted as well, but I've no idea why. The sick ones are only a few feet or even a few inches away from the healthy. |
- Posted by xerophyte_nyc 7 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 15, 09 at 7:45
Pleiospilos' blooms generally only open fully in the afternoon, with some warmth and direct sun. And if the soil is too dry, blooming may also be aborted. The window of opportunity is only a few days, after that if the conditions have not been met, the flower dries up and you have to wait again until next year. Since you have had it for one month, I can't tell if the bloom was about to open at the time you got it, or if it merely had a flower bud still forming. Regular watering is also crucial to sustain flower bud development. If watering is inadequate, the plant will use its available resources to stay alive and bypass flowering. "20 drops of water" is not really the right way to take care of these plants. If you use an appropriate soil mix in a pot, you can drench the soil during active growth and blooming. x |

I am late to the game on this, but this kids show rocks. With guests like Money Mark, Biz Markie, Jack Black, Mark Motherbaugh and the Shins for example this kids show has it going on. The show features DJ lance Rock and a cast of colorful costumed characters including Muno (the red cyclops), Foofa (the pink flower bubble), Brobee (a
little green monster), Toodee (the blue cat-dragon) and Plex (the
yellow robot). What makes this show is fun is that its totally silly retro style for kids and adults like myself. The 8-bit retro graphics featured in the show will appeal to the adults along with the funky synthesized music that's bound to appeal to kids too. The show is geared to 3-6 year olds but it is certainly one kids show that I can more then tolerate.
The costumes are so cool the show even one a daytime emmy for costume design. This year will be featuring licensed costumes from the show. Stay tuned for more…

My NXR DRGB 3001 oven won't light. It is past warranty. Everything else is fine.
I think it is the ignitor because the bar won't even glow. The oven won't emit gas. Called ADCO and of course they don't have the part. I ordered a different replacement part from Dvorsons. (Josh there was very helpful and assured me that it would work with my NXR oven ). If anyone can give me any advice about where to find an EXACT replacement(for future reference).... or how to do the work fixing this.... I'd really appreciate it. I removed the bottom front panel (Thank God the connections are all in the front ! So I don't have to pull the whole range out. Nice design... I can easily access the ignitor.) It should be easy for me (a lady) to replace this ignitor. I just need some reassurance / guidance. THANK YOU! |
Follow-Up Postings:
BE SURE!!!!! to disconnect the stove from power before working on it. Sorry I do not know how to replace it, maybe Nunya can offer some help?? I just wanted to be sure to remind you to disconnect from the power (Just in case) other posters here, don't. Gary |

Gar, Of course, hee hee. I know that. I'm not that dumb. The problem I have is the ignitor I purchased may not be an exact fit... Not sure though until it arrives. If it isn't, I will need some direction. Polarity isn't an issue, so it shouldn't be a problem. |

UPDATE: Jessie from NXR / ADCO called me this morning. He was very helpful. He suggested that I buy some ceramic wire nuts in case the new ignitor part from Dvorsons needs adapting. Also, I looked on YOUTUBE and there was some great videos on how to test the Ignitor and Gas Safety Valve with an ohms meter. I'll do that before I cut any wires on the old ignitor... just to make sure it's the ignitor that's broken. Even though the oven is not working .... I STILL LOVE THIS NXR RANGE. Easy access to the parts (atleast in this case). If a lady like me can fix her own range then this is one nice range. If I can indeed accomplish this on my own then it will cost me around about $66 total.... saving me hundreds. If I have to get a technician out here it will cost $95 for him to just diagnose it. I'll let everyone know how things go. Maybe I'll take some pictures and post them for those of you with an NXR . |
Sorry I have no clue, never had anything go with it so no experience in that department. I don't really see any NXR's breaking down enough to be able to find any info on fixing anything on them. I would be very interested in how this all works out for you though in case this happens to me down the road. |
Glow plugs go bad occasionally. There was someone on the forum who's glow plug wasn't working, but it was the wiring to the glow plug that had abraded and shorted. |

I purchased the ignitor glow stick on Monday from Dvorson's and it has been a week and haven't received it. It cost me $16 to ship it.. from California to Maryland. Priority would've been $10 or less and it would've been here by now. Also, I can't find ceramic wire nuts in my local Lowes or Home Depot so I had to buy them online... another wait time. It has been almost two weeks without an oven. |
At this rate you may have to get out your wooden shoes and use the kind of oven some of those "Netherlanders" do! Good luck on getting the parts in an expeditious manner! Gary |

UPDATE !!!! FIXED !!!! i will be posting photos from my repair job this morning... (but I haven't posted photos for a while so it may take me a few tries)... in it I will try to include a link to the Youtube Test Your Oven Ignitor & Test Your Oven Safety Valve videos that helped me. I want to thank Jessie at ADCO / NXR and Josh at Dvorson's !!! If I can fix my own oven then anyone out there who owns an NXR can do it!!! |

STYLIN' WITH THE MAYOR: Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa showed his stylish side on Thursday, when he welcomed the Council of Fashion Designers of America, trade show organizers Designers & Agents, eco nonprofit organization Earth Pledge and dozens of designers at an evening garden party at his official residence, the Getty House. Though his 14-year-old daughter Natalia is a big fashion fan, and her 29-year-old sister, Prisila Villar, is studying marketing at New York's Fashion Institute of Technology, the mayor conceded he has much to learn about environmentally sustainable design, which was the theme of the soiree. Upon seeing a cashmere dress made of recycled materials, he remarked, "God — only in Los Angeles." Among the designers who came to check out their sustainable looks on display were VPL's Victoria Bartlett, Trina Turk, Trovata's John Whitledge, Magda Berliner, Diego Binetti and The Stronghold's Michael Cassel and Michael Paradise. For her selection, Rozae Nichols hand-punched paillettes out of plastic bottles and stuffed a vest with Spanish moss for insulation. Regarding sustainable fashion, Nichols said it's all about "what you need and what you love. Everything else in between is too much."
LILY FETES KIM: Lily Allen swooped into a private dinner party in London Thursday night to toast her good friend Kim Jones, who has recently been named creative director of Dunhill. Decked in denim shorts, black leggings and a striped sailor top, Allen told 20 guests, "I'm so happy he's found a new home." Allen, showing off a sparkly new Chanel bag, joined guests including Jefferson Hack and Anouck Lepère.

I'm not sure how the writing in Metro games pulls it off. Lines like "Now I am in real spider-infested catacombs, where the general secretary does not look like the head spider" feel like it's been spat contemptuously into a database by a drunk Google Translate. But they're delivered with sincerity in thick Russian accents, and instead of breaking the story, they make your feel like a cultural eavesdropper. It's bad, but it all adds to the alien atmosphere of Metro's apocalypse.
Flashbacks are frequent, but the radioactive "Event" that drove Moscow residents into the subways is unexplained. What's important is the ongoing conflict. Nazis and communists battle, their humanity gone in similar ways. The powerless proles get their heads measured, and shot if the contantly-changing guidelines dictate that today, they're mutants.
And there's you, Artyom. The returning mute hero, in an adventure that's shifted away from the tension of ammo management, and bolstered its stealth options. In the first game, stealth was an unpromoted, but occasionally viable option. In Last Light, the code on your watch has been greatly simplified. There are no traffic lights - if the blue light's on, you're invisible. You can carve a secret path through most rooms by extinguishing lights with a silenced gun, or by hand. It's no Splinter Cell, but giving you a chance to avoid the tough battles is appreciated.
Artyom's slightly over-effective stealth is balanced by the fact that you can't move bodies around. Once alerted, either by a substantial direct sighting or the body of a friend, they stay alerted, and will try to flush you out. Although the game is ridiculous in many ways, including some of the most staged dialogue you'll ever hear, guards won't suddenly say "Hmm. I guess my friend was killed by my imagination," and resume staring at the wall in a convenient-to-throttle position. And if they do find you, the alarm is raised, which opens up doors to allow the armored guys into the fight.
Metro is a highly linear shooter, and owes a lot of its style to Half-Life 2. A level where you have to drive along a railway track, getting off to open doors, is structurally the same as Water Hazard. But here, there are doors and areas that are as optional as they can be fruitless. One completely ignorable area was cocooned in webbing, and had no rewards that I could find: but that actually felt oddly good. A whole area, designed to punish the curious? If I wasn't missing something obvious, that's brilliantly cruel.
Skirting around open combat obviously helps to conserve ammo, but if you're a compulsive corpse-fondler, you'll never run short in Last Light. The "currency is ammo" system works as a fiction - money is useless, and killing people lets you eat their mushrooms. But buying ammo with ammo never really rang true. Now, you're free to spend the special "cash-ammo" you find as cash, on scopes, barrels and for your guns.
Apart from the barrage of squelching, skittering sound effects, the final tension comes from your gas mask, which keeps you alive outside. Limited by eroding filters, It's an inverted "underwater" mechanic, and about as much fun as drowning in Sonic. But the gas mask serves other, more atmospheric purposes - increasing the claustrophobia by getting spattered with blood, and hearing your rasping breath echo around as the filter degrades. Beyond the time limit, it adds atmosphere.
Metro: Last Light is one big dose of more-of-the-same. It has the same mid-2000's flavour, and pulls it off once again by offering a varied set of locations and missions. It has no aspirations above being a linear FPS, and if you're OK with that, it's a treat. If you find your arse being handed to you, though - consider sticking to the darkness.

A rain garden is an easy, low cost way to infiltrate your stormwater and bring some more beauty into your landscape.
1 – Pick a Location
Find a spot in your yard where you can easily direct the runoff from your downspout or other impervious surface. Do a "perc test" to ensure that the soils in that spot can soak up rain water. To avoid drainage problems, place your rain garden at least six feet from your house if you have a basement (two feet if you don't) and five feet from your property line. Call your local jurisdiction to find out if you need a permit to disconnect your downspout or if there are special requirements.
How to Do a Percolation Test
- Dig a hole at least twelve inches deep.
- Fill it with water and let it drain.
- Fill it with water a second time. If the water drains at least half an inch in an hour the second time you fill it, your soil has adequate drainage for a rain garden.
2 – Dig the Basin
Dig a shallow depression to create a rain garden area about six inches deep. You can make it as long and wide as you like – the bigger it is, the more rain water it can soak up.
3 – Create a Berm
Use the soil you dig up to create a berm (and pack the soil well!) on the down slope side and direct the overflow safely away from nearby buildings. Make the bottom of your rain garden level. If you like, you can amend the soil in your rain garden with compost.
4 – Get Planting!
Plant your plants and then mulch. Water the plants until they are established. Here are two sample designs, each based on the amount of sun the area receives:
- Shady Rain Garden
- Sunny Rain Garden
Stay tuned for more designs in the sample designs page.
5 – Help Others Learn About Rain Gardens
Help us track of the number of rain gardens out there and receive a free rain garden sign by registering your rain garden.

Key Stats: One of the most quoted statistics in the sabermetric community is Fielding Independent Pitching, which tries to find out how well a pitcher actually performed by eliminating the effect of defense on ERA. It does this by measuring only those things which a pitcher is specifically responsible for: walks, strikeouts and home runs. Recently, fantasy players have been used differences between FIP and ERA to find overvalued and undervalued pitchers.
In 2010, Francisco Liriano's ERA exceeded his FIP by 0.96, the second highest difference among qualified pitchers. The difference was primarily driven by an incredibly unlucky .340 BABIP (which appears to be even more unlucky when taking into account that the Twins had one of the best defenses in the league last year). Looking exclusively at FIP, Liriano appeared to be one of the top ten pitchers in the league last year.
Most people who consistently watched Liriano pitch last year would agree with the FIP assessment. Using a mid-90s fastball and perhaps the best slider in the game, Liriano held hitters to a 73.4% contact rate, best in the major leagues. With so many swings and misses, it's not surprising that Liriano's K/9 rate was 9.44, fifth best among qualified starting pitchers. Combine dominant stuff with good control – Liriano had a 2.72 BB/9 rate last year – it's hard to argue Liriano wasn't an elite pitcher last year.
Skeptics Say: When it comes to Liriano there is only one question: Can he give you a full season's worth of production? He's never thrown 200 innings and missed all of 2007, most of 2008 and a large portion of 2009 with injuries. He also appeared to tire out last year as his second half stats were significantly worse than his first half stats. For that reason, he should go a little lower in head-to-head drafts with playoffs than in roto leagues.
Peer Comparison: He's not a southpaw, but that's one of the few differences between Josh Johnson and Francisco Liriano. Both pitchers rely on a mid-90s fastball, elite sliders and effective changeups. They had approximately the same strikeout rates (K/9 – 9.44 for Lirano and 9.11 for Johnson) and walked hitters at similar rates (BB/9 – 2.72 for Liriano and 2.35 for Johnson). They also have similar injury history/questions. Johnson had Tommy John surgery in 2007 and had injuries in the second half last year which hurt his performance and ultimately resulted in him being shut down.
So which one would I rather have in a draft? That's a very tough question. Liriano just turned 27 and Johnson is only three months younger, so both should be entering their peak years. While Liriano throws hard, he hasn't quite reached the velocity he demonstrated pre-Tommy John surgery. If his velocity did return to that level, I think Liriano would have a clear advantage over Johnson. However, he's three years removed for surgery so it's unlikely that it will ever happen.
I personally believe Liriano's stuff is a little better than Johnson's, but any advantage he has in stuff may be negated by the fact that he pitches in the tougher league. In the end, I think it's a toss up between the two pitchers. I would draft Liriano over Johnson, but that's only because I've become attached to Liriano through previous fantasy ownership. As long as you are valuing both players as top ten pitchers, you can't go wrong either way.
Team Outlook: As discussed earlier, Liriano has an extremely unlucky .340 BABIP last year. Sometimes a high BABIP can be in part the result of bad defense. However, Minnesota's defense is among the best in the majors. This further strengthens the belief that Liriano's BABIP to regress to a more normal level in 2011.
What They're Saying: Yahoo: #17 Starting Pitcher & #79 Overall; CBS Sportsline: #21 Starting Pitcher; Tristan Cockcroft of ESPN.com: #9 Starting Pitcher;
Projections: Luck will be on Liriano's side in 2011 and he'll be on the Cy Young short list.
18 wins, 3.06 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, 211Ks in 200 innings.

For many people, being able to keep their doctor (or their partner's doctor, or their pediatrician) is the single most important factor in choosing a new plan.
The Blue Cross Blue Shield network used by the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) plan has over 720,000 providers who have agreed to be "Preferred Providers"—it is significantly larger than the next largest network. The larger the provider network, the greater chance of finding your particular doctor on the list of in-network providers, and thus available to you at a lower cost. Some plans have providers only in major metropolitan areas, making the costs of care much more expensive for members in less populated parts of the country.
Blue Cross maintains a regularly updated list of providers that you can access.
For more information contact healthinsurance @ uua.org.

text: | Lactose Intolerant!November 13, 2008 - Kathie EvanoffI'm reminded of a particular scene in the chick-flick movie, "French Kiss," when Meg Ryan casts her lactose intolerance to the wind and consumes an inordinate amount of French cheese. Her French cheese, which she lavishly spread on huge hunks of French bread while riding a train with the scenic French countryside flashing past the window, looks to me a lot like the goat cheese I enjoyed last week. I also spread this cheese on French bread, although mine were calculated thin slices of baguette rather than huge hunks. But getting back to the movie, Ryan, or rather, her character whose name I don't remember now, in the midst of her cheese consumption, grasped her abdomen and shouted, LACTOSE INTOLERANT! The next scene revealed her coming out of the train station, where I assume we are led to believe the cheese either came back up, which isn't what really happens, or she had gotten rid of it another way, because she was skipping around and smiling as though relieved to be rid of what "ailed her." As we get older we sometimes find our digestive systems don't work as well as they once did. I found this out by way of my annual county fair milkshake. Once every summer I would treat myself to an annual milkshake at the fair's Dairy Bar, where milk is milk and there is proof that Ohio cows are the real happy ones. Thick and creamy, you can bet this is no skim latte. You have to have some really great cheek muscles to suck up that wondrous concoction. But two summers ago, I found the milkshake's comforting effects were quickly replaced by migrating abdominal pain and internally popping bubbles. After an evening of misery, I deduced it was my intestines reacting with disfavor at the lactose in the milk. I am, after all, a fat free milk drinker and this wasn't fat free. I continued to have fat free milk in my morning cereal, using it preparation with my oats and having an occasional glass with dinner or birthday cake. Lately though, I'm getting the feeling that my internal system is beginning to show dislike for even small amounts of milk or cheese. Now what? I've heard of products on the market that contain the enzyme, lactase, which is needed to digest milk sugars. It is a lack of this enzyme that causes the discomfort, which by the way, affects people in all sorts of different ways. I haven't yet embarked on any of these products, but might have to look into them if it means giving up my morning cold cereal. I could just eat my cereal plain but my cat, sitting patiently waiting for the bottom-of-the-bowl-milk, won't be happy. While I ponder the situation, I decided to start my day today with eggs. I scrambled two whole eggs and served them with lightly buttered toast. Tomorrow is another day and another breakfast. Lunch was a bowl of Amy's Mexican rice and beans with tofu. This tastes pretty good and is filling because it's high in fiber. It also contains cheese, so I'm not sure how my stomach will like it. Baby steps.

News Sound of Music Auditions in Leeds
Fancy yourself as the next stage star? Open auditions are taking place at The Carriageworks on 31st January…
Other Recent News Articles
Locally based amateur dramatics group Leeds Insurance Dramatic & Operatic Society (LIDOS) are looking for undiscovered talent to star in their forthcoming production of The Sound of Music.
Originally a stage musical but famously adapted into a film in 1965 (starring the wonderful Julie Andrews), the iconic The Sound of Music is set in the 1930s and follows the life of Maria Rainer and the Von Trapp family she works for. Like most great musicals, the story is full of romance and the production full of songs. When Maria falls in love with Georg Von Trapp, the father of the seven children she looks after, it seems that all will be happily-ever-after. However, true to history, the Second World War erupts, threatening to jeopardise the couple's future. It will be fascinating to see the new production of this classic story when it comes to Leeds this summer.
Since it was founded in the1970s by a group of insurance workers, LIDOS has been putting on productions in Leeds for over 35 years. The society have just finished their Cinderella pantomime and memorably, last year, premiered Bad Girls The Musical. This year LIDOS are urging any budding thespians to come forward and attend their open auditions in order to be in with a chance of starring in one of the most beloved musicals of all time. So, if you know your Do-Re-Mi, can sing about My Favourite Things and fancy following in the footsteps of Connie Fisher (winner of BBC's How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria), then why not take the chance to audition for the role of free-spirited Maria?
And if Maria isn't your favoured role, why not take on the character of polished Austrian naval officer Captain Georg Von Trapp. Or if there are children in the family that would like to try their hand at singing and acting, there are the Von Trapp children roles also there for the taking. With a varied cast of characters, LIDOS are looking for a huge range of people to audition, from four-year-olds to 70-year-olds.
Further details of the roles available can be found at http://www.lidos.btck.co.uk/SoundofMusic
If you want to have a go at getting involved in this fun, family production then all you have to do is attend the first meeting on Tuesday 31st January, 5.45pm-7.15pm at The Carriageworks, The Electric Press, 3 Millennium Square, Leeds, LS2 3AD

What's New?
Since the D0 has been out for a little bit now I am not going to bore you with the details here, but will simply say that the i7 975 has a couple of differences.
The first is the increased multiplier. Where the 965 has a multiplier of 24(x133 for a 3.2 GHz clock), the i7 975 gets a bump up to 25 (x133 for a 3.3 GHz clock). The voltage is slightly reduced on the 975 as well.

"We were just trading dollars every day on pineapple," said vice president Steve Davidson.
North American now deals strictly with Northern Fruit based in Wenatchee, Wash.
Meanwhile, the company's Chilean deal gets stronger every year, vice president Larry Davidson said.
He said North American is now the second largest direct importer of Chilean cherries, grapes, stone fruit and citrus into Canada.
Last year, North American hired four employees and launched Summit Produce Inc. in Fresno, Calif.
Russell Produce expands organic line
Berry specialist J.E. Russell Produce Ltd. has expanded its line of organic vegetables from several suppliers.
The move comes after conversations with shippers and retail customers eager to expand their organic offerings, said president John Russell, who works out of the Ontario Food Terminal.
"They're not high volume items," Russell said, "but customers want to be in touch with what's new out there."
.Russell is also looking to expand his offering of Ontario-grown organic vegetables.
Ryan & Associates adds produce buyers
Brokers and distributor Richard E. Ryan & Associates Ltd., based at the Ontario Food Terminal, is training the next generation of produce buyers.
Sacha Lisse and Barry Lexchin, both industry newcomers, are learning the ropes from brothers Barry and Steven Green.
The company is preparing to move down the hall in March, trading its current 960-square-foot facility for 1,920-square-foot quarters.
Lisse, who joined the company last March, has six years of experience in food marketing and sales and is fluent in Spanish, French, Italian and German. He's found his niche expanding international deals in papayas and mangos.
Lexchin left the accounting field to join the produce industry last fall. He's marketing dry onions, another new commodity for the company.
Streef Produce growing asparagus
After representing asparagus growers for years, Streef Produce Ltd. has planted 55 acres at its own farm in Princeton, west of Toronto.
Owner Peter Streef, who sells local and imported produce from the family's wholesale operation at the Ontario food terminal, said his crew already has already spent several years tending the asparagus crop of a 75-year-old grower in Prince Edward County who's set to retire.

Cleveland Police released new details regarding a daytime robbery which occurred earlier this week at a local pharmacy.
According to Evie West, information officer for Cleveland Police Department, a lone robber entered Rite-Aid Pharmacy located at the corner of Mouse Creek Road and Paul Huff Parkway.
The crime was committed just before dusk Thursday.
West said detectives with the Criminal Investigations Division have released new information, including what the robber took.
According to West, the man took an "undisclosed amount of prescription narcotics."
This was after he reportedly showed a handgun to store staff.
The firearm was reportedly tucked in the waistband of his jeans.
The robber was described as being a white male in his early 40s, wearing jeans and a blue checkered shirt. He was also wearing a cap and sunglasses.
After reviewing video footage of the robbery, investigators determined the man fled the scene on foot.
Anyone with further information, or who may have seen the suspect leaving the store is asked to contact the Cleveland Police Department at 476-7511.
- A 2nd Street resident was arrested for shoplifting after she reportedly struck a car in the parking lot of the business as she was leaving.
Deputy Daniel Watson of the Bradley County Sheriff's Office was en route to the shoplifting call at Family Dollar located on Spring Place Road, when he was advised the suspect had collided with a vehicle.
According to his report, Regenee Laquena Williams, 23, was arrested and charged after an initial investigation.
Williams reportedly told the deputy she had taken two quarts of transmission fluid "because her car needed it."
"She stated she did not pay for it. She also stated the crash was the manager's fault because she was attempting to retrieve the stolen merchandise and that she should have retrieved it while it was still in the store," according to Watson's report.
Williams was taken to the Bradley County Jail, where she was booked.

MANGALORE: Sleuths of directorate of income tax (investigations) from Bangalore swooped down on the residences and clinics of leading physicians here on Wednesday. However, there was little or no confirmation on the scope and purpose of these raids or the physicians who came under the taxmen's scanner as officials of the IT department -- both here and in Bangalore -- were tight-lipped about their action.
"No comments" was the terse reply at both ends.
Queries on the raids, made with the office of B N S Prasad, commissioner of income tax, were directed to office of director of income tax (investigations) Ashutosh Chandra in Bangalore.
Those at the office of Chandra, responding to calls from TOI, said he was busy with official work and would not be available for comments at any stage during the day. Efforts to contact the PRO of the department, Sundar Raghavan, went in vain as he was said to be on leave.
However on the ground here, the sleuths were seen at Water Woods, a gated community of leading doctors at Kadri Kaibattal where they carried out raids on select houses for alleged tax evasion. The sleuths also reportedly searched the clinics at Balmatta.
The doctors targeted for search operations by the sleuths are said to be part of a mega hospital project coming up at Mahavir Circle area of the city entailing sizable investments. The doctors raided are said to be cardiologists and psychiatrists.

York Community Furniture Store was set up in November 1988 as a charity to recycle good second-hand furniture to households in need. It was run by the Council for Voluntary Service, until it became an independent charity in 2000, and later a limited company. A second store was opened in Selby in 2004. To reduce dependence on grant-funding for running costs, both stores now sell to the general public, using a two tier pricing system, the lower prices being available to those who meet low income criteria. Some new items (beds and white goods) are also sold to ensure constant supply.
The York store has occupied various premises over the years but, since 2001, has been settled at the Raylor Centre, off James Street.
In late 2007 a major development began to upgrade and expand the York store. The owners of the Raylor Centre reclad the warehouse and the Community Furniture Store added an additional, mezzanine floor to increase capacity. During this time the store was temporarily housed in another unit nearby, but moved back to the improved Unit 29 in April 2008. Further improvements are planned to improve the reception area and provide workshops for refurbishment work.
In 2010 a program was launched to improve the service provided by the store in Selby.
This began with a move from Ousegate to much better and larger premises with plentiful parking on the Bawtry Road Industrial Estate. The new store opened on 29th August 2010, providing a larger range of goods, including new beds and white goods.

If you live in the city or a crowded apartment building, it's a good idea to take a close look at a compact washing machine.
A mini washer is just the ticket for a small house or tiny walk up apartment. Not having to lug your clothes up and down the steps or out to a laundromat and back is a big time and trouble saver.
Before buying it is a good idea to measure the area where your your new portable washer will be used and also where it will be stored if it is moved after use.
Even the smallest apartment washer may be an inch or two bigger than the required area and you will have to deal with it. Better to know before hand.
Also when shopping see how large the actual tub size is, one with a bigger tub that still fits your required area would be ideal.
Another idea is since this is moving parts, it may be a good idea to look at the extended warranty of the portable washing machine you're thinking of buying. That way if something goes wrong you get it replaced or repaired. Read the fine print, they may even come out and pick it up and return after the repair.
No more fighting crowds at the laundromat or laundry room, waiting for a washer to become
available. A true saving of time, money and stress.
The nicest thing about these jewels is the size, they are small. They will fit into just about any nook or cranny, just about any closet. Some even hook up to the sink and then can be pushed into the closet.
Mini washers can be very useful in any setting: in a condo, mobile home, office or at home. They can be stacked up when not in use for a great saving in storage space.
Some models even offer the 'Energy Star' certification. Be sure to check this, most tags will give you what your power usage will be for a given year.
Here's a compact machine:
Most of these hook up to the spigot in a sink for a water supply and drain into the drain of the sink. Hoses route water to and from the washer. Most washers have casters. The sink needs to have very decent water pressure for these to work right.
All this and when you are done, disconnect both hoses and wheel it out of the way and into a closet. If the casters decide not to work, no worries. The thing is not that heavy to start with. Picking the whole deal up and carrying it to the closet is also an option.
This one has got to be the smallest and it's not so automatic:
No more hoarding quarters for wash night. No longer will you feel like an arcade game junkie with a pocket full of quarters. These units really pay for themselves in no time in money and time saved.
Most of these use less laundry soap, too. There is a money saving there, as well.
Most units these days have different cycle and water level settings, so you can tailor it to whatever type of use you need, heavy, light or anything in between.
These can be great for washing delicate items such as wool. You can be in charge of the whole process.
If you have a large family and have dirty clothes on a daily basis, going out for to do the laundry is a real chore. One of these may be just what the doctor ordered. If the place you live in does not have standard laundry hookups or no on site washers, you have it made.
One of these can make a home clothes washing machine a reality if a full size machine is out of reach. That daily or weekly trudge to the laundromat is eliminated. It a sure bet that it will make your life better!
The capacity on most models is usually close to the full load of an ordinary machine.
If the hose routing does not work for your set up, there is usually a manual mode – you can fill the tub yourself. You can even plumb in a "T" fitting into the water routing under your sink for a more robust setup if you are into that type of thing.
Front Loading Vs Top Loading Washing Machines:
Front loading machines are known to use less energy, less water and do a bit of a better job at cleaning. Top loading machines are usually cheaper because of the design. You can get energy saving washers in the top loading models.
For really small cramped places there are models that include the dryer, but these are more popular in Europe.
So unless you are going to miss the socializing in the laundromat, an apartment compact washer is definitely the way to go.
