I'm interested in growing hoyas in coconut husk chips (CHCs) and would like to hear from others who are using them in their planting mix. Pros? Cons? Other components of mix? Thanks for any info. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I like it. I generally don't mix it with anything else. I say generally because there might be one or two here and there with a mix, but I'm doing pretty well using it alone. I like using it because it doesn't tend to get soggy, but holds moisture pretty well. So the water's there for the roots, but it's not nearly as likely as, say, potting soil, to cause root rot. It dries out fast enough for me to water every couple days or so, which I prefer to soil that stays wetter longer, because the more times I have to check whether or not it needs watering, the greater the chances will be that I will forget. Also, I love that it comes as a compressed brick, as that makes it so much easier to store. Cons: If you are not growing in a clear pot, it may be tricky to see whether or not it actually needs watering, because the top looks dry much faster than the rest of it. It tends to dye things a reddish brown for a while, so if you have a saucer that you are fond of, it may end up looking stained. I think it washes off, but it'll get stained again when you water again. Depending on where you get it, it may need to be soaked and leached extensively to remove salts from the manufacturing process. Or maybe that's just coir? I'm not sure. In any case, I enjoy using coco husk chips for hoyas and orchids. I haven't tried it for anything else yet. I try not to use it for things that like to stay moist, but I've had to, and they are doing well anyway. I just have to make sure and keep on top of the watering situation. |
I haven't tried the chips because I don't want to have to water that often. I use coir and perlite. Coir dries out plenty fast for me... Denise in Omaha |
I use a mix of coconut husk chips, perlite and potting soil. I have used bark and I prefer the coconut husk chips. You do need to rinse and soak the chips in hot water several times to remove the salts unless you buy a pre-rinsed product made for growing plants vs from the pet store. I like that the compacted chips take up little space so you can store enough to pot many plants in a small space. Coconut husks are also the perfect source for environmental reasons as they are just left over by-product from the harvesting of coconuts where as bark is from the timber industry. Mike |
Hello everyone! Here in Barsil, I use the coconut husk-old found in a deposit after the consumption of coconut water. I buy regular cubes of coconut, coconut originating from recycling, after the consumption of water. In the manufacturing process in which a cleaning, but still maintains the salt. I still soaked with the water exchange time in two days. until water completely transparent skirt. So I take the sun to dry it for use as substrate Hoya, orchids, bromeliads epiphyllum. Some time ago, when the cubes are used without soaking the roots of the plants die .. |
I too use coir and perlite for most of the Hoyas. But I use the chips for some of my orchids. And yes, especially if you get the chips from the pet store, it need to be well rinsed. I actually soak them until the water is clear - it takes about a week, changing the water out every day. I do this for the coir as well. |
Thanks to all for the input. I have placed an order for some prewashed CHCs, but will soak them several times before using to further reduce salinity level. |

Wow! Our cake was the most delicious and beautiful cake imaginable. Sue is a dream to work with. The bride and MOB went in with an image of what we wanted and Sue made it happen and more! The best part was, all of the ingredients were fresh and NO FONDANT WAS USED! Therefore, every part of our cake was delightful. The strawberry cake is not to be missed, trust me! Ditto the fresh raspberry filling. Sue is so willing to make ideas come to life. We put our trust in her to create a beautiful cake and we were more than thrilled with the result!
Wedding: 4/27/2013
Not only was our cake beautiful it was delicious too! We had a sweet station from them and they did an amazing job
Wedding: 10/4/2014
Sue Becker did an unbelievable job putting together the cake we had always envisioned! She was so helpful and patient throughout the whole tasting/planning process and we were beyond pleased with the final product. The cake was delicious and the design was breathtaking!
Wedding: 10/4/2014
We choose Becker's for our wedding cake and rehearsal dinner cake. Their cake is delicious, we were able to try any flavor we wanted before buying. For the wedding, we had vanilla with raspberry filling and strawberry with strawberry creme. The cake was beautiful and I got lots of compliments on it. No problems with delievery, they took care of all of that. They also did our rehearsal dinner cake, which was delicious as well. Will be using their services again in the future!
Wedding: 8/23/2014
We loved our cake from Becker's. The design we requested is exactly what was awaiting us at the reception hall. It was delicious!
Wedding: 10/20/2012
Sue Becker is wonderful to work with. We went in with very little ideas, but she took it and ran with it. The end result was beautiful, and exactly what we didn't know we wanted :) The flavor selection of cake/filling is amazing, and the cake itself was absolutely delicious. She was the most reasonably priced decorator we researched, but more than exceeded decorators/bakeries with higher price tags. My friend got married earlier this year, her cake was almost double mine with the same number of guests, and the cake was dry and tasteless. Becker's cake is delicious and we received several compliments on the look and taste.
Wedding: 10/6/2012
great value for price, tasted great!
Wedding: 5/26/2012
We got our wedding cake from Becker's and it was beautiful and delicious. Sue did a great job at giving us exactly what we wanted. We could not have asked for a better cake for the price. It was perfect.
Wedding: 11/5/2011
Our cake was beautiful and delicious. We chose a basic design from the cakes they have previously done, and we just added some other touches. It was on the dance floor during cocktail hour for everyone to see, but I wish I had more time to look at it! Guests told me they enjoyed the cake. We kept the top layer to freeze, but I had to try it before putting it in the freezer! It was so good that we almost finished it off!
Wedding: 10/8/2011
My wedding cake was amazing!! Tasted so delicious and looked amazing! Very happy!!
Wedding: 9/17/2011
When looking at cakes, I knew I wanted to save some money so I did my homework and found Becker's Bakery. Sue makes all the wedding cakes and she is very talented and creative. We ended up having a 4 tier square cake with plum ribbon on each layer with sparkly fondant. It was the best tasting fondant I ever had, and usually you can't even eat the stuff. The price was also less then half of other places I was looking at.
Wedding: 8/27/2011
Exactly what my title says...The cake was beautiful. They have many different flavors of cake and various filling options. I don't even like cake, but I like theirs! They were friendly and delivered everything on-time. I also got my grooms cake from them, which was fantastic - it was a MSU Spartan helmet. Perfect!
Wedding: 5/28/2011
Sue did my cake for my wedding last month (May 2011). From the get-go she was excited and happy to help my husband and I create our dream cake. She had millions of flavors and fillings to chose from, which was a must for my husband, and was eager to experiment with our modern design idea. The cake was moist and fluffy, the fillings weren't over-bearing and the frosting was perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better cake or a more helpful and friendly baker.
Wedding: 1/8/2011
My fiance and I tasted a Beecker's cake a wedding in August of 2010 - it was beautiful and DELICIOUS! The best tasting wedding cake I've had in a very long time. We were VERY disappointed in not having them make our cake. Even though I called 5 months in advance, Sue was hard to reach by telephone and then cancelled our appointment 3 times. I was so bummed because we LOVED their cakes. Finally after the 3rd cancellation, 2 weeks before our wedding we had to go to a different bakery. Good luck, I hope you can arrange for them to make your cake, you'll love it. I wish it had worked out differently for us.
Wedding: 10/9/2010
Sue did an excellent job with the three tier cake for our Indian/Irish wedding. She took a design we had made and incorporated it into the decoration of the cake. She was very receptive to our ideas and easy to work with. The cake was gorgeous and delicious!
Wedding: 10/16/2010
We ordered a 3 tier cassata cake from Becker's (plus a quarter sheet cake) in order to serve 165 guests. Becker's was reasonably priced and the cake looked nice (it was decorated the way we had asked), BUT...
As we began to greet our guests after dinner, the club manager informed us that our cake was frozen and the pastry chef was unable to slice it. The cake had to be moved to a hot plate in order to cut it - the problem delayed dessert service by 45 minutes and delayed the start of our dances - and some of our guests were still served partially frozen cake! (which was confirmed by several of our guests)
Prior to our wedding I read a Google review written by a bride that had the same problem with their cake from Becker's - I wish I had realized this was a reoccurring problem!
After the wedding we contacted Becker's about the problem and Becker's insisted the cake was not frozen - they seemed very concerned about their reputation, but not enough to even apologize!
Becker's is simply not a bakery that I would use for an important day ever again, I would have rather have paid more somewhere else and not had this problem!
Wedding: 10/2/2010
Beckers decribed a beautiful cake to us but when I got to my reception I was really disappointed in our cake. I do have to say it did taste great. THey also lost my cake topper and the hall had to call for them to search for it.
I'm sorry you felt your cake was small, but it was made exactly to your specifications for the amount of guests you had as well as the simple design you requested. I do apologize regarding the cake topper; we are rennovating our cake department and ...
Wedding: 9/5/2010
My cake turned out to be more than I could have ever dreamed it to be. It was totally gorgeous and unique and fit our wedding exactly. My only problem with beckers was trying to meet with the decorator Sue. She finally set up a meeting with me after 3 weeks of phone calls and then didn't show... when I told her I had to meet with her or I was taking my business elsewhere, we got things rolling. But the end product was not only beautiful, but delicious as well.
Thank you for taking the time to post a review; I'm very happy you enjoyed your cake! I apologize again for being so busy and hard to get a hold of. If you ever need a cake in the future, please think of us!
Wedding: 5/29/2010
Sue's cakes not only look amazing, their taste is right there to match. So moist and flavorful; lots of flavor/frosting options; willing to work with price range-smaller tiered cake with a sheet to supplement # of guests in back. I can not tell you how many compliments and referrals I have already sent her way. Plus our 3 tiered cake was differnt flavors so we had variety for our guests. She usually does a cake tasting in March.
Thanks so much for your glowing review! I sincerely appreciate it; word of mouth is so important to me; it means my hard work is paying off! :) Thanks again.

Answered by
Sheikh Salman al-Oadah
Playing chess for money is unlawful. If it is played merely for recreation, then we cannot say it is unlawful. It is wrong to try to compare chess with intoxicants and gambling by arguing that chess, like those vices, is "an abomination of Satan's handiwork", a cause for hatred and dispute, and a hindrance from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer.
Allah says, regarding alcohol and gambling: "O you who believe, indeed intoxicants, gambling, stone alters, and divination are abominations of Satan's handiwork, so avoid them that you may be successful. Satan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer. So will you not desist?" [Sûrah al=Mâ'idah: 90-91
If this game brings about such ill affects, then it should certainly be prohibited. However, I personally know some people who play chess while strictly guarding their prayers, refraining from arguing and avoiding all bad language.
As for becoming distracted from the remembrance of Allah, this is something common to all games and activities, as most work completely occupies the minds of those engaged in it. In spite of this fact, we see that most activities are lawful, while some are preferred, and still others are obligatory. Some of these activities, like horse riding, fencing, and industrial arts and crafts, have been classified as a collective duty on society, because at one time or another societies were or still are in need of those skills.

For immediate release – Tuesday, March 27, 2007. Contact Bob Brammer – 515-281-6699.
I'm elated that the Legislature passed an excellent bill and that Governor Culver is signing it today. This is a very important measure for consumers, and it was one of my highest priorities this year. And this is a crucial start on our overall goal of tackling predatory lending in Iowa on several fronts.
Car-title loans have astronomical and unjustified interest rates, typically 264% and sometimes 360%. On top of that, the consumer puts his or her car at risk – the car-title loan company takes a lien on the car and actually takes keys to the car to make repossession easier.
But Car-title loans are about the only kind of loans where the lender gets to have it both ways: the loans have astronomically high interest rates, and they are secured by the consumer's car or truck. Consumers get a bad deal on both counts, while the loan company gets a great deal. It's unfair, it's unjust – and now it's a thing of the past in Iowa.
I heartily applaud the Legislature and Gov. Culver for prohibiting such abusive and unconscionable rates for car-title loans.
[End of Miller statement.]
Car-title loans are secured by the consumer's automobile or truck. Lenders actually keep an extra set of keys to the vehicle – and may start repossessing a vehicle if a lender is delinquent in making one payment. The first payment is typically due in fifteen days. If even one payment is late, the lender after ten days may issue a 'right to cure' notice informing consumers that they are in default, and that if they don't correct the default the vehicle will be repossessed in 20 days. (If the consumer makes the required payment but is delinquent again within a year, the lender is not required to provide the right to cure and may repossess after 10 days of delinquency.)
Miller said car-title lenders have attempted to avoid interest rate limitations by claiming the debt is open-ended credit, much like credit cards. Open-end credit was deregulated in Iowa because federal law let out-of-state card issuers export their home state no-cap interest laws.
Miller also noted that car-title loan companies charge very high interest, but they do not run a credit check in order to determine if a consumer is able to afford such a costly loan – because the loan is secured by a vehicle. "The one indicator of predatory lending that everybody agrees on is making a loan without regard to ability to pay," he said.
"Indeed, with the first payment due just 15 days after the loan, it is very unlikely that the consumer who needed $300 15 days ago will have $344.55 just 15 days later to pay off the loan," Miller said.
"The result is that most consumers are on the 'down' escalator as soon as they sign car-title loan papers," he said. "It's very risky to consumers, but the car-title loan company – with the vehicle as collateral – is risking little or nothing."
Miller said that almost three out of four Americans (over 70%) live in states that prohibit car-title loans like those that had been offered in Iowa. "Those Americans still found credit. For almost 160 years Iowans found credit without these onerous transactions. You can't tell me that the people of Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana are so much more resourceful than Iowans that they can secure credit without title loans and Iowans cannot," he said.
"People who push these loans claim that capping the rate will kill the business and thereby deny an important 'lending tool' to lower-income Iowans. My view is that the loans were a tool, all right – a shovel that just dug most people deeper into debt," he said.
"Iowa was out of step with the rest of the country by failing to protect consumers on car-title loans, but those days are over," Miller said. "I commend the Legislature and Gov. Culver for providing this important protection to the people of Iowa."
Gov. Chet Culver signs bill regulating car-title loans.
Gov. Culver thanks Attorney General Tom Miller for proposing Car-Title Loan bill.

I know I'm going to sound really dense but here's my problem. My house is 3 years old. About a year in, I planted roses along the side of the house. Mostly I planted whatever looked good at home depot. They probably made it 6-8 mo before they just looked bad. I researched and discovered OGRs and replaced most of what looked bad with old blush, martha gay hill, martha gonzales, and louis phillipe. They are hanging in there - old blush is doing wonderfully, drawfing everything else - I also have some knock outs. Everything planted near the house is covered with lava rock. My husband has always used lava rock and he loves it. I have never questioned it as until about two years ago, I had no interest in gardening. Well, it just dawned on me that the knock outs nearest the road that are covered in mulch do much better than those by the house in lava rock - they are just about twice the size with more flowers- and then it dawned on me that all the lovely pictures I see posted here show roses grown in mulch - probably b/c mulch helps the organic process? - told you I was dense. Anyway, when I mentioned this to my husband, he balked ALOT at the huge job of taking up the lava rock. He said he would be willing to slap mulch on top of the lava rock. Any one know if this would work at all? I just planted new baby plants of mutablis, georgetown tea and archiduke charles and I would like to start them out correctly. Thanks for all replies.

Shannon, Lava rock can absorb a lot of water. My concern would be that it would take a LOT of water to get through the mulch, saturate the lava rock and then to the roots of the rose. (I think it would be way more work to find out it won't work and then have to remove the lava rock/mulch mixture.) Maybe you can remove the rock from around the bases and well out past the edges of the rose bush and mulch under the rose. Then your husband can have his rock and you can provide your roses with moisture and nutrients via the mulch. Someone else in Florida may know more. |
Ask around the neighborhood if there's a problem with burrowing critters (voles and moles are my problem up here). Yesterday at a rose event, we were talking about the damage done by voles eating rose roots and some people admitted burying gravel to slow the voles down. A product called Permatill does the same thing (it's broken up cinderblock). If you cover lavarock with mulch, over time you'll get the mulch breaking down into organic rich material and if there's no weed cloth under the lavarock, you'll have built (over time) and organic rich soil impervious to moles and voles. |

My Personal Preaching Journey
Prayerfully, every biblical communicator will grow in knowledge, understanding and effectiveness. This week I'll share some of what God is teaching me about preaching.
Work Less, Pray More
It started one Monday morning when I was sitting at my desk, attempting to study, while fighting back the tears. Nothing was wrong. In fact, everything was great. My marriage was thriving. My kids were healthy. The church was strong.
But I was weak, empty, desperate, and afraid.
Those of you with the gift of teaching usually enjoy study time. Teaching is one of my lower gifts. For me, studying is grueling and exhausting work. The pressure I feel to deliver high quality messages at times feels overwhelming.
I kept thinking… I can't keep this up. I don't have anything left. I don't feel funny. I don't feel interesting. I don't want to preach. I can't do this for the rest of my life.
Though the tears and fear, I was still very aware that the weekend was coming quickly. And then another would come… and another… and another… and that scared me to death.
Unable to study, I simply prayed… and prayed… and prayed. I truly believe that God showed me that I was "overworking" the messages. By faith that week, I cut my preparation time in half and devoted more time to prayer.
That weekend, I preached a message that was not as creative, not as funny, and not as entertaining, but it was FULL of spiritual passion.
On my preaching journey, I am fully convinced that God wants me to pray more and work less.

My garden (in South Mississippi) will be rowed east/west, covered with commercial black paper for weed control and a soaker hose under the paper for water. MY QUESTION is do I have to mound the dirt in my rows? Why cant I plant on the flat of the ground? Is there a specific reason why I have to mound the ground before planting?

Main reasons to go with a raised bed would be drainage, ease of roots to grow (loose soil is easier to penetrate than compacted soil), and the soil heats up faster in spring. You will also have a more concentrated use of your fertilizer and any additives. I don't paper mulch. I find I like a community type of veggie growing in beds. A mass of planting shades the soil and keeps the weeds pretty well in check. For example I have tomato with carrots under planted, melon running off the edge and running beans trellised on the north end of the bed. In another bed I just planted peppers, squash, okra, carrots, with the beans same beans along the north end. I have 8 acres to grow on and a tractor and disc and I still go this route. Saves on labor, money, time and I honestly believe the plants grow better. Less insect problems too. Again I believe with a mixed planting the insects get confused. Oh and I'm in south Ms. too about 60 north of New Orleans. I have sandy soil. Mike |

SYSmark 2007
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.04
Developer Homepage: http://www.bapco.com/
Product Homepage: http://www.bapco.com/products/sysmark2007preview/>
SYSmark 2007 Preview is the latest version of the premier performance metric that measures and compares PC performance based on real world applications.
SYSmark 2007 Preview extends the SYSmark family, which has been widely accepted by IT Managers, PC OEMs, press and analysts worldwide to support Windows Vista.
SYSmark 2007 Preview allows users to directly compare platforms based on Windows Vista to those based on Windows XP Professional and Home.
The new release also incorporates numerous new features and enhancements such as an improved GUI allowing streamlined start-up and run along with a heads-up-display (HUD) and automated error reporting.
SYSmark 2007 Preview is an application-based benchmark that reflects usage patterns of business users in the areas of Video creation, E-learning, 3D Modeling and Office Productivity. This new release includes a robust and refreshed set of applications.
SYSmark again works similar to PCMark Vantage, but with real world applications. So while it's semi real, it's also semi synthetic. Here we see that the EP43 and EP45 boards once again perform just about on par at stock settings. Only when overclocking do we see them spread apart.

Rated 5 out of 5?by dmold5 Can't wait to move in!
We visited Natura Villa a week ago to look into renting in a few months. We were very impressed with how beautiful and quiet the complex was. It is very well maintained and clean! The amenities are quite a step above another complex that we visited, and the rent is less. We worked with Mary, and she is awesome!! She gave us a great overview of the surrounding neighborhood and gave us a complete tour of the complex. We decided very quickly that we wanted to rent here, and can't wait to move in!

Rated 1 out of 5?by Unhappy Tenant Be Careful with your Deposit
Be Careful withj your deposit! I moved in when it was Trillium and the day I inspected the carpet it looked freshly cleaned. Great right? however, 1 week later, I have no kids or pets, the carpeting starting showing track marks and stains. I complained. They sent the same company to clean it. They cleaned the carpeting 4 times during the 1.5 years that I lived there because of my complaining. Then they have the audacity to charge me for a carpet cleaning upon move out. They charged to repaint the apartment as well. They are extremely unorganized and you have to call constantly to give them the same information over and over. I don't recommend this place at all. For the amount of money they are charging, they should be a little more customer service oriented. A few days prior to moving out the toilet overflowed, I called the maintenance line. No one ever came.

Rated 5 out of 5?by WhiskyRow Nice place to call home
I moved in here about 2 years ago when it was Trillium. The new management came in and started to get things done. The pools, and grounds always look great. They have several grills around the property and a fire pit for cool summer nights. I love living here and maintenance seems nice, I have not had any issues that they need tom come over.

Organizers are welcoming visitors and locals alike to participate in Durango's Heritage Celebration.
Step back into the early period of Durango at "Opening Night at the Hank." The festivities are free and start at 7:30 pm in the Henry Strater Theater at the historic Strater Hotel. Live music by the Silver Mountain String Band will set the stage for this vintage style celebration. On Friday, The Durango Emporium will host "Reflections of the Past: The Grand Ball- a Tea and Fashion Show" at the Hank at Noon. On Saturday, downtown Durango will be taken back to the year 1900 with a Heritage Train Ride, Historic Trolley Tour, a Downtown Shoot-Out and of course the Victorian Ball. Sunday offers a tour of the Hermosa Cemetary. Be sure not to miss out on all of the excitement the Durango Heritage Celebration has to offer.

The plot of this movie is centered on Bella, Edward and the Cullen's. Life was good for Bella after the birth of Renesmee, Bella acquired new powers because she turned into a vampire-trading in her warm chocolaty eyes for vampire ones. Bella is finally able to enjoy her new life with Edward and the Cullen family and she is learning about her new abilities. Her life is going great and she is finally happy-that is until a member of the ominous Denali Vampire Convent, the troublesome vampire called Irina threatens her happiness. Irina threatens to ruin Bella, Edwards and the Cullen's happiness because she believes that Renesmee is an immortal and unstoppable vampire child, a known taboo in the eyes of the vampire community. Irina knows that if she exposes the Cullen family to the Vampire Convent, they will be punished and killed.
So now the Cullen's, along with Bella and Renesmee, must fight to prove that they are innocent to they vampire community and also fight for their lives, while putting and end to Irina's evil ways. They Team up with other vampire clans, as well as with the Wolf Pack to put an end to the madness. She finally gets to become a vampire in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn-Part 2.
The characters of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn-Part 2 includes the following:
Bella: Shy and quite Bella is in love with Edward Cullen from the start. Bella has finally reached a point in her life when she feels happy and content-until it is all threatened and she must fight for her life yet again. Bella is played by Kristen Steward.
Edward Cullen: He was portrayed as the high school outcast in the first two movies, but he is actually a vampire. Edward will give his life for Bella and do anything in his power to keep her safe from harm. Robert Patterson plays Edward.
Jacob: Played by Taylor Laughner, Jacob is a hot werewolf who has always loved Bella, and Jacob would still do anything to protect her.
The Cullen's: Edward's family of vampires that includes Alice, his father and mother, Rosalie, Jasper and Esme.
Renesmee: A new vampire that was born.
This movie is PG 13 and has been captivating people from the first scene.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Adelaide Super Saver: Adelaide City Sightseeing Tour plus Barossa Valley and Hahndorf Tour. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Great tour, great to see the city you are staying in, the bus driver was great, full of knowledge and she was fun to listen to and could answer any questions you had.
The trip to the Barossa Valley was great, a pity the weather didn't cooperate , rained all day, but a great tour.
Both these tours were excellent and we really enjoyed them, they are a MUST when in Adelaide. The bus drivers were very knowledgeable, it was THE best thing I did. Booking it was fast and easy and helped us to have a fantastic weekend - thank you to all concerned :)
Very informative tour, well organized, transport is very clean and comfortable, tour guides were very knowledgeable and pleasant,
fantastic great tour friendly people highly recommend to anyone
very enjoyable and informitive
Very enjoyable and informative 2 day tour. Both driver/guides were entertaining and provided much more information than you would obtain by going to these places on a private trip.
Very interesting. Good company. Travel guides friendly and helpful. Food great.
Doug Y
Adelaide is probably not the most exciting city on the planet, so the optional river cruise was probably the highlight.
The Barossa tour was pleasant, if a little long and Hahndorf was quite nice.
The driver was excellent, very well informed, and endlessly courteous, doing his best with the material

The City Sightseeing Tour is only average. It's dominated by the visit to the chocolate factory, where the factory 'tour' involved being shown a cocoa bean and having a glimpse at the factory through a perspex window. Took about 5 mins. The 'chocolate tasting' involved being given a couple of chocolate buttons and a 10% discount voucher. The 'coffee' which was meant to go with the 'tasting' was a coffee machine in the corner of the shop which the driver mentioned but we were never shown. Just a means of getting people to buy their chocolates it seemed to me. The driver left laden with his own huge bag of chocolates which I found a bit suspicious. Overall not up to par.

I was thinking today and I am trying to plan ahead for new gardens next spring.Normally with the hummers I have a feeder on the front porch and 1 on the back porch.I have morning glories hollyhocks petunias and geraniums usually every year.I have seen the hummers check out the morning glorys and hollyhocks but mostly perched on the geraniums and petunias.I see them feed more on the sugar watered feeders though.Do you think feeders are the bird equivalent to fast food?Do you think if I go through a major effort to give them gorgous flowers next year that they would still prefer the feeders? What is best for them?I will be honest here too with the feeders! They have begun to leak.They are a couple years old now.It gets on the deck rail then ants and wasps come in masses! I feel so bad for the hummers trying to dodge the wasps! I have tried oiling the feeders but have had no luck.My mom saved me an article about a man who invented a feeder that I may try next year.It apparently is a better design.He apparently designed some medical equipment also.Has anyone tried it.(I included the link below).Its a bit late in the season for me to buy one now though.One plus of my leaky feeders though are butterflies! THey love it! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Hummingbird Feeder
Follow-Up Postings:
I think the main attraction of feeder vs. flower is that a blossom produces a finite amount of nectar daily while a feeder 'produces' a constant supply. So visiting a feeder is usually less work with a bigger payout. |
- Posted by hummersteve Indy (My Page) on Wed, Sep 26, 07 at 17:04
Actually none of feeders leak, except when it gets really hot then I think any of them will leak. As far as wasps go Ive been fighting them all summer too , thats where having more options helps the hummers out, either more feeders or more flowers that they will use or both. I dont have a lot of different flowers right now : guaranitica black and blue which is number one here[10] lady in red or any coccinia, subrotunda, cuphea david verity and all of these are used, plus the 10 feeders. There are many more good hummer plants , look it up for anyone interested. Now is the time to plan for next year. |
My regulars that were here all summmer seemed to prefer the feeders versus the plants. They are long gone now, but the migrators are at the feeders alot but also the plants. I have a hummzinger it is a little expensive and to feed they have to hover, though it does have a perch. The one I like best is from First Nature. It does not leak, they can perch while eating, easy to clean & comes in 2 sizes 16 & 32 oz. I have one of each and you can find them at Walmart for under $5! Do not use their nectar though, ugh! Here is pic. |

I'm with lv6b in that flowers can "run out" of nectar and have to make more. Which is part of the reason hummers fight over feeders - they don't undertsand that the "big flowers" usually have enough for everyone. That said - plant your beautiful flowers too. Hummers need the protein from the bugs they'll find to eat in them and it's a source of nectar in case your solution goes sour or runs out. As to feeders leaking in hot weather - what happens is liquids and gases expand when heated. The air in the empty top of the feeder heats up, expands and has no where to go so it pushes nectar out of the feeder hence the "leaking". You can eliminate this by using a feeder that has a reservoir on the bottom instead. I like them because you can fill them half full so the hummers can reach the nectar and the wasps can't. So the bottom reservoir feeders solve multiple problems. The hummzinger is my favorite - it's a breeze to clean too. |

My primary research interests are focused on the phylogenetic reconstruction and molecular evolution of the green algae with particular emphasis on the genus Chlamydomonas and its allies (including Carteria, Haematococcus, Chloromonas, and Chlorococcum). In addition, I am studying the enigmatic group of green algae known as the Sphaeropleaceae. My lab has been a leader in the use of ribosomal (18S, 28S and ITS) and chloroplast-encoded rbcL and atpB genes to infer phylogenetic relationships in the green algae. I served as PI and member of the Executive Committee of Deep Green, a USDA/NSF/DOE-funded project involving the coordination of research effort in green plant phylogeny (i.e., the study of phylogenetic relationships among the major green algal and embryophyte lineages). I am currently collaborating on a project to study microbial diversity at the Great Salt Plains of Oklahoma.

An American pilgrimage to Concord
Alcott's house has been a public museum for the last 100 years, and is filled with objects from the Alcotts' lives, such as a demure semicircle "shelf desk" in Louisa May's bedroom. Alcott built it into an alcove in the wall between two windows and his daughter used it to write Little Women, a staple of young adult literature that chronicles the lives of four sisters and their home, based loosely on herself, her three sisters and Orchard House.
Sleepy Hollow
The town's largest cemetery was a favourite walking spot for Louisa May and Hawthorne. Signs at Sleepy Hollow help contemporary wanderers find Author's Ridge, the area of the cemetery where, on a hill overlooking a pond, the Hawthornes, Alcotts, Emersons and Thoreaus share their final home, together in death as they were in life. Each has a grave marker befitting their earthly gifts. Thoreau's grave is a small, laptop-sized marble marker simply labelled "Henry", where pilgrims leave notes of gratitude, personal items and pencils (he is credited with improving the machinery at his father's pencil factory).
Across from the Thoreaus is Hawthorne's marker, chained off in a family plot, fitting for a man who derived so much happiness from his wife and children. A few paces farther along are the Alcotts. Louisa May, who contracted typhoid pneumonia while working as a nurse during the Civil War, has a permanent marker for her veterans' status and is surrounded by the siblings she made famous in Little Women. Emerson's less-modest grave is set off a bit farther. As the rock that tied them all together, it is fitting that his plaque sits upon on a large white rose quartz boulder. In his contemporary travelogue, Walking Towards Walden, John Hanson Mitchell noted "Except for Pere-Lachaise cemetery in Paris or Westminster Abbey in London, no other burial site in the world contains so many authors interred in so small a space."
Thoreau died in 1862 at age 44 without receiving any acclaim for his writing and its global influence. Like a pebble setting off ever-growing, concentric ripples on a pond, Thoreau's simple ideas on learning from nature and resisting state injustice would beget pacifists such as Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr, and other progressive movements including prison reform, suffrage, abolitionism and environmentalism. And it is in nature, and Concord, where these transcendental lessons become most clear.
The Colonial Inn, a hotel since 1889, is the closest you can get to staying at or eating where Thoreau did. He lived here with his aunts from 1835 to 1837 while attending Harvard in nearby Cambridge. The rooms are classically furnished with some looking out over the town square, and the dinner options range from traditional American fare to interesting options like fried tofu with roasted mushrooms. Two doors down is the North Bridge Inn, similar in style to the Colonial Inn and with large suites, but without the same historic pedigree and with cheaper rates.
Helen's Restaurant is a popular upscale diner with satisfying staples like fish taco wraps and goat cheese paninis. Main Streets Market & Café is a cute coffee shop, decorated with old photos of Concord on its brick walls, that makes great sandwiches (the chicken breast with avocado is called the Walden) and many pastries.

Dating… by the Rules?
Hello pretties.
I feel like Carrie Bradshaw titling a post that way.
Currently, I really should be focusing on studying microeconomics (has anyone seen a pattern recently?), but I would rather write a post on Dating Rules.
Do you have dating rules? I do. I don't by any means think they're universal, but I do like to set boundaries for myself and at least try not to habitually break them. Why? Because after my big summer dating extravaganza last year, I have a much clearer idea of what I want, and what signals other people send to tell me what they want.
1. I always assume the bill will be split, but if my date offers, I have no qualms with letting him pay. These nails don't buy their own polish, after all. It's only polite to at least take out your wallet and expect to throw down for what you ordered, especially if you're like me and you drink craft beer at $5-7/bottle. (I'm a girl with standards, ok?)
2. If I don't feel a romantic interest, but I'm attracted and it seems like he's not looking for anything serious, I may sleep with him by date 3. If I'm actually interested, it's going to take longer than that. This is absolutely personal preference, and I can't stress that enough. I personally will worry that a guy is only seeing me for sex if I actually like him and we sleep together particularly early. Of course, waiting til date 6 or 7 doesn't guarantee that he's not, but it is a good way to hedge your bet.
3. Be honest. This one, I think, is much more universal. If you don't like something, don't pretend that you do. If you've ever seen 27 Dresses, you should know what I mean. Don't pretend to be a vegetarian if you're not prepared to commit. There are two major dating caveats in my life, as I see it: 1) I have a pet rat, and 2) I want to own my own sex toy boutique. I bring those both up between dates 1 and 3, because if a guy wants out due to one or both, I want to know sooner rather than later.
4. "Nice to meet you," means we aren't going out again. "I had a great time," means we are, if it's up to me. Don't use those phrases interchangeably.
5. At a certain point, it's reasonable to have the "are we seeing other people" discussion. There's absolutely no way of knowing exactly when that point is, and you'll probably feel nauseous trying to figure it out. (Not that I'm projecting my general anxiety onto you, readers. …except I totally am.) But it's definitely a conversation that should happen if you actually want to be exclusive. I personally can't be in a relationship – casual, exclusive, or otherwise – with bad communication.
6. Until then, feel free to date around. I spent the summer dating like it was my second job. I'm not sure that anyone I was dating knew that, but if they're reading, they do now. Ah-hem. I was a free agent, and just because you were cooking me dinner did not mean someone else wasn't buying me coffee. That got kind of stressful after a while, but for a bit, it was a lot of fun.
If you've ever wondered how to date like Sarah from Marveous Darling – tapping into some serious narcissism here – there you have it. What are your dating rules?
Also, I'm not really digging my old sign-off. It's not working out. Time to break it off.

I wish to learn more about Technical and Solutions Architecture. Specifically, I'm concerned with designing HA, Fault-Tolerant Scalable web-based solutions (enough buzzwords ;-). Its a topic I'm familiar with on a technical level having worked as a sysadmin, but I don't know all the buzzwords Architects use and have to brush up on my UML and diagram techniques. I would like a book that describes what architecture is as a discipline and explores standard design patterns, and some do's and don'ts.
Do you have any recommendations?
I apologise if this sounds vague, its because I am still learning what Architecture is as a discipline having come from a sysadmin background. To be 100% clear I'm looking for books or websites that give broad overviews of what System Design patterns exist and how the discipline works. Thanks
Instead of closing the question maybe you could comment on what exactly about it you don't like.

This Is What Legal Recruiters Really Think About Law School
Law school is important if you want to be a lawyer. But how important is it to choose the right law school? Does it really matter if you went to Harvard? Or is any program acceptable as long as you worked hard and have something to show for it?
Business Insider asked top legal recruiters all over the country to weigh in. Their answers might surprise you.

Camp CMS Boosts Websites –Farquharson/Tedesco
August 2011Pack your bags and kiss your loved ones goodbye for a few weeks. You're getting on a bus and heading into the wilderness to Camp Content Management Systems. What's that? What your printing business really needs is to get away from the hustle-and-bustle of modern life and focus for a bit…on its Website.
Of all the marketing and branding tools in a printing company's toolbox—the Website—continues to rank among the most important. It's the first place many prospects visit for information on your business, and it's often where prospects end up when searching online for the services you provide. If your business Website isn't impeccably-branded and bursting with fresh content, you may be missing out on sales opportunities. You'd be better off with sunburn.
But here's the rub: If you've redesigned your Website in the past couple of years, you may have found that keeping it updated can be a pain. Using an outside developer to make updates usually adds hassle and cost, yet many printing company owners lack the time and extensive Web development knowledge to do it themselves. The bottom line: Until recently, it was often challenging or next-to-impossible for many businesses to harness the full power of their site as a marketing device.
At least you don't have poison ivy. Fortunately for printing companies, however, relatively new content management system (CMS) tools such as Wordpress and Drupal greatly reduce the technical know-how needed to maintain a fresh-looking site.
Once your site has been designed and launched by a professional Web developer, CMS tools help your company or an outside marketing resource deliver the timely, dynamic content your visitors—and customers—crave.
CMS from A to Z
Ready to get started? Grab your sunblock, bug spray and canteen because today is the first day of Camp Content Management Systems. Join counselors T.J. and Bill for today's itinerary, which includes several programs that will explore how content management systems can help every printing business maintain a more effective Website.
10 a.m – Exercise: Trim CMS Development and Maintenance Costs. Before we begin, swim one lap around Lake WannaWebsite for every dollar you may save by switching from a site managed by a dedicated Web resource to a CMS-based site managed yourself. Just kidding; you'd be swimming until 2 a.m.

Once upon a time buying a case was easy. The only real choice you needed to make was how large it needed to be to handle your needs and installed hardware. That has been an outdated idea for a number of years now. There are just so many options to consider and it can almost seem overwhelming to a novice. But then, they do call them PERSONAL computers, now, don't they?
Water cooling is also something else that is gaining a huge amount of momentum in modern computing. It used to be something that only an avid enthusiast would consider, but today it is becoming more common for those who are just tired of the high noise output of a decent air cooling solution.
So now we have an enclosure that not only looks good, but also has a great deal of functionality. Add to this the design that makes it water friendly and we begin to see a very nice package indeed. It also has a large feature list that reads straight from the elite range of case designs, so all in all we have a very sweet enclosure on our hands.
Everything isn't roses with the SHARK, though, as my earlier rant regarding an unfiltered side panel will attest to, but the things done right far outweigh the things done wrong and I have no qualms about recommending this case to anyone who is looking for something a bit out of the ordinary. Even if you have no desire to get into water, the 120mm fans are whisper quiet and still maintain an above average airflow throughout the case. The hard drive trays are great and the included grommets show a dedication to the enthusiast when it comes right down to how things should be done.
Bottom line... If you've been in the market for an aluminum enclosure and have also been thinking (or are already using) a water cooling setup, then this is definitely a case you should consider. With a huge feature list, aluminum construction and a 120mm fan system already in place, it just doesn't get much better than this.
- Pros
Solid construction
Water cooling friendly
5 optical and 5 HDD bays
Nearly tool-free installation
- Cons
Unfiltered vents on side panel
Possible problems with mobo tray and Socket 939 boards
Rating - 9 out of 10 and TweakTown's "MUST HAVE" Best Features Award!

Couldn't find any recent reviews about Vikings (maybe everybody stopped buying them after all the negative reviews here!). AJ Madison has a Viking gas range at a price cheaper than the Elux Pro DF. Just wondering if they've made any strides recently. FWIW, the model is Viking Professional Custom Series VGIC5366BX |

I had a newer Viking range that I got in January '13 and I didn't like it at all, well, other than the way it looked, which was very nice. But you are looking at a different model, the open burner one, which may be better. That was the one I had intended to purchase, but the salesman told me the open burner was no longer available and I took him at his word (it is still available today). My oven got extremely hot on the exterior, the control panel, and the knobs. And the oven temp was all over the place and couldn't even bake a decent batch of cookies. I returned mine and got a Wolf ... much happier!! |

Timeout boys basketball: It starts in the middle for Mustangs
By Mike Hutton 648-3139 or email@example.com January 10, 2013 9:34PM
Munster senior Nate Bubash. | Jeffrey D. Nicholls~Sun-Times Media
Updated: February 12, 2013 2:50PM
MUNSTER — How do the Mustangs get it done year after year at Munster?
It all starts in the middle for the Mustangs. Been that way for a while under coach Mike Hackett.
It goes all the way back to centers Scott Rutkowski (2006) and Jim Phelan (2003), a couple of 6-8 bruisers who played for Hackett back when he was getting the program rolling.
Recently, it has continued with Ricky Carbajal (2011) and Nate Bubash this season.
For all the good guard play the Mustangs throw at teams (Joe Crisman, now at Loyola and Mike Schlotman, who will play at Davidson), the identity to their team, which revolves around their physical defense, starts in the middle.
This year, Bubash is picking up where Bubash left off last year. Before that, it was Carbajal who helped forge their identity.
"A requirement for us is to be able to bang and push inside and be a presence for us offensively," Hackett said.
For Bubash, carrying on the bruising tradition with a touch of offensive flare is just fine with him.
"Being the next good center here is a nice thing," Bubash said.
For Hackett, just being Bubash is a nice thing. He averages 15.3 points per game and six rebounds. Hackett can pretty much pencil Bubash in for those numbers before the game starts. He is also a gritty defensive player, helping to shut down Lake Central's Tyler Wideman in a game earlier this year, holding him to eight points in a 67-57 win for the Mustangs.
"He's real consistent," Hackett said. "He's never too up or down."
Except when he was throwing in 23 points and grabbing six rebounds against Columbia City, a pretty decent team that the Mustangs beat on its floor over the holiday break. Columbia City is coached by Chris Bennett, the former coach at Valparaiso High School.
Hackett has an ideal in mind for the guy he wants to play center for the Mustangs. He is looking for rugged — at least 6-4 or so (the taller the better) — and someone who is not afraid to bang around inside.
He calls Bubash a power forward, who happens to be trapped in the center spot for the Mustangs.
Offensively, he's not much of a back-to-the-basket player. However, he is just as effective in other ways.
He can use both hands and he has a good spin move — one that he started working on in eighth grade — that allows him to either kick ball out to a guard on the baseline for a 3-point shot, or throw one up inside.
"He is a real difficult matchup for a lot of teams," Hackett said. "He's real physical. He's not a giant kid but he knows how to get himself in good position and he's real good with his body under the basket. He also uses either hand."
Bubash got schooled by Carbajal for two seasons. Carbajal, who is 6-6 and who now plays at Grand Valley State, was slightly modified version of Bubash or Bubash is a modified version of Carbajal. According to Hackett, Carbajal was "more explosive" while Bubash is more skilled.
"I think Ricky wore his emotions on his sleeve," he said.
It's true that Bubash became good because of the beatings he took from Carbjal in practice when he had to guard him.
"He went against him every day for two years," Hackett said. "It really benefitted him."
The last two seasons, Pat McCarthy has been Bubash's whipping boy in practice. McCarthy said it's as hard as it looks to guard Bubash, a player who possesses an array of offensive weapons.
McCarthy has caught more than one elbow in the face while trying to slow him down.
"He's got so many moves," McCarthy said. "He can go left and right equally well. It's hard."

Fun news–the forces behind the Capital City Writers group asked me to join the founding committee. The goal with the group is to hold events with a focus on a career in writing (not so much sharing writing with others, although there will be review groups). Everything is still in planning process, but it is fun to be on board.
Speaking of writing and Lansing, my latest freelance feature article for Lansing Capital Gains ran last week. I interviewed local comic creator, and teacher, Ryan Claytor (of Elephant Eater Comics). It was nice to turn in another feature article, as it has been awhile since my last (I take the gigs when they are offered, or when I have an idea).

We have a relatively small (but perfectly formed!) group of figurative artists whose work we regularly show. We enjoy a close relationship with our artists many of whom we have known for a long time.
Our inaugural exhibition was work by Richard Adams who Hybrid have championed since 1990 when he had his very first exhibition with us at Hybrid in Columbia Road in Hackney, London. Since this time Richard's popularity has grown and his originals are now highly collectable. We have known Rachel Ross for nearly as long, her recent success has been phenomenal and given us great pleasure.
Some artists we have met since re-locating to Honiton, there is a wealth of creativity in the area. Irene Jones came into the gallery and we hit it off straight away, her recent popularity has come well-deserved after a long career as a painter.
However our criteria for artists to exhibit is not historically or geographically constrained; we select work of quality and integrity which we admire and are enthusiastic about. Constantly looking out for new artists we enjoy our role encouraging their development and finding their audience.
Our exhibition programme this year includes familiar names and new and emerging artists. It is a diverse and interesting range we hope you enjoy it as much as we know we will!
