$200 Million Public/Private Partnership to Accelerate the Construction ofNew Housing Throughout New York City
Mayor Bloomberg Also Issues Progress Report on Administration's Housing Plan
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg today launched the New Ventures Incentive Program(New VIP) to accelerate the construction of new housing throughout the five boroughs. Over a five-year period, New VIPwill provide up to $200 million for acquisition and pre-development costs to encourage residential development in derelict manufacturing areas, particularly brownfields, appropriate for rezoning for residential use. Citibank, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, and JPMorgan Chase have committed the first $40 million for the first year of the program. The Mayor also delivered a progress report on the $3 billion plan to create and preserve more than 65,000 homes and apartments citywide over the next five years. To date, 10,197 units are already in the development pipeline with 8,549 and 13,250 units projected in the second and third years. Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) Commissioner Jerilyn Perine, Housing Development Corporation (HDC) President Emily Youssouf, Citibank Commercial Real Estate Group President Deborah Adelman, Deutsche Bank America CEO Seth Waugh, HSBC Regional President David Kotheimer, and JPMorgan Chase Executive Vice President Mark Willis attended the announcement with the Mayor.
"New VIPwas created in response to the housing needs of our communities and is a part of an overall housing plan that aims to foster mixed-income communities, transform derelict former industrial areas, and encourage the development of new housing and investment in the existing housing stock," said Mayor Bloomberg. "New VIPis a multi-million dollar public-private partnership between the City and our banking partners here today that will develop up to 10,000 units of affordable housing on cleaned-up brownfields throughout the City so that abandoned, decayed privately-owned properties no longer blight our communities. As I said last week in my the State of the City, our New Housing Marketplaceplan is underway and on target, and more than 10,000 new homes are already in the development pipeline."
Under New VIP, up to 10,000 units of housing including units affordable to low-, moderate- and middle-income families will be created over the next five years. In October 2003, the City entered into an agreement with four private lenders, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, HSBC USA Bank and JPMorgan Chase Bank, for these banks to provide up to $40 million for New VIPloans in the first year. The City has committed to guarantee up to $8 million of these loans in order to leverage the private bank funds. These sites can be difficult to develop because of potential environmental contamination or the perception of such given prior use. The increased market risk makes it difficult for developers to obtain private financing. New VIPwill provide developers with a new source of capital to take the initial steps towards the redevelopment of now moribund manufacturing areas of the City.
"The New VIPprogram is another example of how HPD is responding to New York City's changing housing market," said Assembly Member Vito J. Lopez who is the Chair of the New York State Assembly Housing Committee. "With the scarcity of land, and limited affordable housing construction opportunities, this initiative will provide the financial support to develop affordable housing on blighted industrial properties throughout the City."
"At the core of the Mayor's housing plan is the vibrant and extensive collaboration within the affordable housing community in New York City," said HPD Commissioner Perine. "Working together with Federal and State governments, local elected officials, the financial and philanthropic sectors, not-for-profit and for-profit development professionals and the people of the communities we serve, we have forged the most successful public/private partnerships in the U.S."
"HDC is pleased to play such a key role in helping to fulfill the Mayor's housing plan," said HDC President Emily Youssouf. "We look forward to continuing our partnership with HPD, banks and developers in bringing safe, affordable housing to the hard-working people of New York City."
"Our hope is that new neighborhoods will emerge from this effort that provide a range of housing options for all New Yorkers, making our City stronger and more competitive to ensure its future as the financial capital of the world," said Deutsche Bank America CEO Seth Waugh.
"Citibank is enormously pleased to participate in the Mayor's New VIP," said Citibank's Commercial Real Estate Group President Deborah Adelman. "As part of the Mayor's housing initiative, New VIPwill help expand affordable housing opportunities for all New Yorkers and strengthen our commitment to help make communities better."
"HSBC is happy to participate in this unique opportunity that uses public money to leverage private dollars to produce much needed affordable housing for New Yorkers," said HSBC Regional President David Kotheimer.
"JPMorgan Chase is proud to be part of the public-private partnership with the City that will help create much needed affordable housing through this important initiative," said Mark Willis, Executive Vice President of JPMorgan Chase/head of JPMorgan Chase Community Development Group.
Immediately following today's announcement, the Mayor and Assembly Member Lopez toured Rheingold Gardens, a redevelopment of a formerly derelict manufacturing site at the old Rheingold Brewery in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The project includes 249 units of housing developed by the Bluestone Organization, and includes two- and three-family homes (totaling 156 units) for moderate-income families developed through the City's Partnership New Homes Program and rental apartments (93 units) for low-income families developed through the New York State Housing Trust Fund. There will also be new open space, retail, and streets.
The Rheingold site is unique because it was City-owned and therefore the City could assume the upfront financial risk of environmental testing and mitigation before the site was conveyed to a developer. For the City to encourage the redevelopment of privately owned former derelict manufacturing sites, it needed to develop a tool to mitigate the upfront financial risk of the sites' redevelopment, hence the development of New VIP. The second phase of the Rheingold site will be eligible for New VIPfunding.
The progress report on the Mayor's housing plan and term sheets for developers who are interested in New VIP are available at www.nyc.gov. The report provides details on other significant housing accomplishments including:
Creating Jobs: Over the next five years, the Mayor's housing plan will create an estimated 66,950 full-time construction and construction-related jobs. Currently, there are 387 construction workers at the Rheingold Gardens site.
Maximizing Affordability: HPD estimates that nearly half of the government-funded units will be affordable to low-income households (including homeless households), approximately one-third of the units will be affordable to moderate-income households, and the remaining one-sixth affordable to middle-income households.
Increasing Homeownership Opportunities: HPD has increased homeownership opportunities, including first time homebuyers' down payment assistance; 242 New Yorkers have graduated from the required Homebuyer Education classes with an HPD-approved counseling agency, and 41 of those are on their way to purchasing their first home. The plan also creates New York City's first employer-assisted housing program, a retention tool for large employers such as universities and hospitals and a means to make homeownership within the city more affordable for employees. Both are targeted to neighborhoods in the City with lower than average homeownership rates.
Expanding Special Needs Housing and Permanent Housing for the Homeless: HPD expanded special needs housing; this Spring, the City's first Foyer housing program for young adults at risk of homelessness, will open. HPD also increased funding for permanent supportive housing by 79% over the next 3 years (from $85 to $153 million) in order to expand permanent housing to homeless single adults, homeless families, and youth aging out of foster care, and began 3 pilots for formerly homeless and low-income families to buy a home.
Protecting Mitchell-Lama Residents from Large Rent Increases and Eviction: within the next several months, members of the New York City delegation in the State legislature will introduce a bill to preserve affordable rents for 32,000 Mitchell-Lama apartments by extending rent stabilization. In return, owners would be entitled to real estate tax relief for those apartments that would be newly regulated, and the proposed bill would also provide financial incentives to owners to remain in the Mitchell-Lama program by allowing them to increase their return on equity while maintaining Mitchell-Lama guidelines on tenant income and occupancy.
In addition to the 65,000 units that the Mayor's housing plan will create and preserve (including the 10,000 New VIPunits), there will be another 10,000 units of housing in development in Lower Manhattan over ten years. These units will not only act as a catalyst for job creation and investment in Lower Manhattan, but will help to further encourage the area's transformation into a 24-hour community where people can live and work. The Liberty Bond Program provides financing for the development of new residential units in Lower Manhattan.

UK-based Glen Dimplex has acquired Britannia Living Appliances, supplier of premium range cookers. Britannia Living Appliances is based in Blackpool, England and supplies its own Britannia brand of premium cooking appliances. It also serves as distributor for cooking appliances from Italian appliance maker Bertazzoni and designer ventilation products from manufacturer Best. The company was formed in 1995 and now has 67 employees. A bdaily Business News article said the company was forced to go into administration in September of this year. The Glen Dimplex buyout, according to the article, will save all the Blackpool jobs. A late-November article from Insidermedia.com said that Glen Dimplex paid 2.5 million British pounds to acquire Britannia Living Appliances and its stock. The report by Kaleigh Watterson said Glen Dimplex is looking for a buyer for the Britannia property in Blackpool.

Ground systems
From the transmitter
In addition to the buried or mounted transmission lines, a buried copper strap should run from the transmitter to each individual tower. To save money, this strap connection is sometimes omitted. It is a great mistake to rely on the outer conductor of the transmission line to form the return path for the antenna current. A flat copper strap has nominally very little inductance while a round transmission line outer conductor can have appreciable inductance. In some cases, where a separate ground strap connection was not used, instability has been observed. This strap should go directly to the base of the tower and be brazed to the copper straps that come down the four sides of the tower base from the bottom of the base insulator to the origin of each tower's radial system.
When constructing directional antenna systems, doghouses are decidedly preferable to free-standing metal cases containing ATU equipment. Antenna adjustment is far more comfortable and more quickly completed when there is a protected area in which to work. A few cold and stormy nights very quickly prove this point. It is important to have 120Vac power, and two or three spare pairs of conductors running to the transmitter from the doghouse generally find a use.
Figure 2 shows a doghouse located within the tower fence. A copper strap should be run around the base of the building and connected by another copper strap to the ground ring around the tower base. Radials should originate at this ring, be brazed to this doghouse strap and continue out from the other side of the doghouse. Maintaining continuity is very important in this. Cathodic protection, similar to that used for ships, has been mooted for ground/antenna systems but has not been widely used.
Metal fences around the tower base are far more satisfactory than wooden fences. Wooden fences absorb moisture and can cause changes in tower base operating impedance as the moisture dries and changes the resistance of the fence. The posts of metal fences must be connected to the ground system by means of copper strap. This ensures a stable electrical environment around the tower base and is important for the comfort of people touching the fence.

Are my parents right?
Name: | Ashley |
Add a little more detail (optional): | Hello, It would take pages and pages to give exact detail of my situation. The short version is: I met a guy online and my dad flipped out. They didnt want to talk to him or meet him. They told me I couldn't talk to him anymore and I tried to stay away from him to honor my parents like the Bible days children are to do. But my parents never treated me better after I stopped talking to him. So when I got home after graduating from a Christian college I told my parents I wanted to see him again. That I loved him. They thought I was betraying them because they do not want to give me their blessing because they do not approve. They judge him based on his past, which I hae to admit is complicated but doesn't God forgive? Isn't that what we are to do? To forgive? My parents refused to. They made me choose him or them and I moved out. They still won't talk to me after almost 9 months. I'm very sad in how they are treating me... I know this isn't much detail. But is there any advice out there for me? My parents say they got biblical council and that I was wrong. |

Parents have lived a lot longer than you have and have an insight that you do not possess right now. They probably are right and I would listen to them very carefully. If this guy has changed, let him demonstrating it by joining a good church, working and proving that God has changed his life for the better. You have all your life to make the right decision but you could spend all your life regretting the wrong decision.You would be very wise to proceed with caution and the sound council of godly people.
My mother once said she married a certain man because her parents did not like him. She regretted it her whole life.
I would listen to what they say. Most likely they can see something you can't see or you refuse to acknowledge. Whatever you do don't run into anything.
While it's entirely possible your parents may be somewhat obtuse on the issue, I must agree with trailofblood above. Better to let this guy show himself to be truly changed and on the right path than to make pay for a bad decision the rest of your life. Remember that among the 10 things God felt the need to include in His first commandments, adultery made the list. If you read Jesus' commentary on divorce (Matthew 19) you will come to understand that God hates divorce. He says that divorce for any reason other than adultery is adultery in itself. I point this out only to say that whoever you choose is who you have chosen for life and God expects you to be with him for life regardless of how he acts or how he treats you. Additionally, his spiritual state will have an enormous impact on you and the family you have together but will be no excuse for your own behavior and relationship with the Lord. Your parents may arbitrarily dislike him, but they may also see something in him that you don't. I say all of this to say, choose carefully and ensure you marry a godly man, for you only get one chance to choose.
Hello Ashley,
All of the posts here are excellent and may not be what you wanted to hear. What have you decided to do, honor your parents and the Lord or feed your fleshly desires? It is my hope you stay in fellowship with the Lord and have chosen the former over the latter. Take comfort in knowing that all things work out for God's glory which you will benefit greatly from in ways that cannot be seen now.
Why don't you join the forum? We'd be delighted to have you.

Is every skein of yarn supposed to be able to draw smoothly from the center? I can only find the center end once in maybe every three or four skeins.
Is there a secret to it??? :-) Sherri |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yeah. Sometimes you yank out the ENTIRE durn center. Then it's smooth. No, there's no secret, yarn companies just like to torment us. ~ Kit |
- Posted by sheilajoyce (My Page) on Sat, Nov 4, 06 at 19:18
When you buy the yarn, look for skeins where the cut end is visible. That's the only solution I have to the problem. |
Kit, I did this on a couple of skeins and it was about half the skein, so I guess it is half-a-dozen of one and 6 of another for which way i get the yarn out! Sheilajoyce...If I ever get to a store, I will remember this! Right now I am working Mon thru Sat, 10-12 hours per day. Luckily, my daughter has been picking up supplies and groceries for us. So anyway, i have been buying yarn on-line from Joann's. Thanks for responding! |

I saw a tip recently where you put the skein into a plastic sandwich bag with the corner snipped off (like a budget pastry bag). Thread the outside strand through the hole in the bag and use that to knit with. I haven't tried it yet (I was already mid-skein on my projects) but it seems like it would take care of the (impossible to find) center strand thing as well as the (roll off the couch, under the coffee table only to be picked up by the dog and dragged around the room) outside strand thing. |

I just avoid the problems of trying to find the end in the center and sometimes getting tangles by starting with the outside end. I know that folks here like to pull from the center so the skein doesn't roll aound but most elsewhere in the world people start from the outside. |

The original video has been deleted and is no longer available. Survey finds Americans more skeptical of the BibleNEW YORK (AP) - A new poll finds a sharp increase in the number of Americans who consider the Bible merely the teachings of men rather than the word of God. The fourth annual State of the Bible survey was conducted just over two months ago by the Barna Group for the American Bible Society. It found that while about one in five Americans continue to read the Bible at least four times a week and view it as divinely inspired, an equal percentage doubt the Bible's relevance and authority. That's almost twice the percentage of those who were skeptical of the Bible in 2011. The survey found the greatest increase in indifference toward the Bible was among Americans between the ages of 18 and 29. Spokesman Geof Morin (jeff MOHR'-in) says the American Bible Society hopes to reach more of that generation through their cell phones with daily verses and Bible studies. Society President Roy Peterson says he hopes more Americans will turn to the Bible to "make sense of life" and reverse what many see as the nation's "moral decline."Read the survey by clicking HERE

Our final launch day review from the new Samsung 840 EVO product family is of the 750GB capacity size. Priced at $529.99 and sold in a drive only kit, the 750GB costs a little more than some high-end 512GB drives from other manufactures, yet packs more storage capacity. Since the 500GB EVO costs just $369.99 and the leap to 1TB costs $649.99, the 750GB capacity size, and price, make for a nice stop gap between large and mega.
Performance wise, the 750GB size shares all of the specifications with the 1TB EVO. On paper at least, aside from the 250GB capacity reduction, the 1TB and 750GB models should perform the same. We tend to look at SSDs under a microscope, so we expect there to be some small differences, since each NAND package has an extra die inside. With EVO though, the NAND isn't really the driving force for most of the performance.
Don't get me wrong, 840 EVO is a helluva drive on its own, but the bundled RAPID Mode, part of Samsung's Magician suite, is the star of the show. Working in conjunction with the 840 EVO SSD is a software cache layer with up to 1GB of system DRAM sitting in front of the SSD. We're not going to dismiss the downside of a massive 1GB buffer without a battery backup, but we really like the performance. My mouth is Kool-Aid Orange right now.
If you missed our Samsung 840 EVO Overview article, now would be a good time to read it. We covered all of the new features of the 840 EVO, most of which we'll just lightly touch on in this review of the 750GB model. We've also published a review of the 250GB EVO this morning as well.

Product Description
The Limited Edition DeMarini CF5 LE uses groundbreaking technology to produce a BBCOR bat that can do some serious destruction on the diamond! Constructing the CF5 LE using their new TR3 F.L.O. Composite, DeMarini has successfully created their lightest swinging bat yet. TR3 F.L.O. (which stands for Fused Layer Optimized) is a cutting edge material that is the result of the random and naturally chaotic fusing of carbon fibers. This creates a more compact carbon that enables DeMarini to make the new CF5 LE lighter and stronger than ever before. The stronger design allows for more even weight distribution, which in turn produces faster bat speeds! This two-piece fully composite design uses Doublewall technology to give it maximum trampoline effect with the largest sweet spot possible! DeMarini's Half and Half two-piece technology makes YOU stronger by silencing feedback on off-center hits and creating the largest, most responsive sweet spot by flexing before impact and recoiling with a burst of ball-launching energy! The CF5 LE also features a Geo End Cap that's focus is on keeping the barrel stiff and not letting energy escape through the end of the bat. This gives each and every hit an extra blast of energy. DeMarini: Born Hardcore! The DeMarini CF5 LE is BBCOR Certified and approved for high school and collegiate play. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

As to taking it daily, in theory there shouldn't be a problem, because all of these nutrients are very important to your health, as long as you don't take more than is recommended. However, it is always advisable to ask your doctor about anything you take regularly, just to be safe.

InformationWeek has released a listing of what it calls the Infoweek 500, a qualitative ranking of the most innovative IT users. A company has to have more than $500 million per year in revenue to be considered for the listing. The average size of these companies is $11 billion in annual revenue.
Like other research we look at occasionally on this blog, the data gives you a great idea of what other IT groups are doing. You can have a copy of all the related statistics. You have to give Infoweek some advertising-type data, naturally, but it is well worth the time filling out the "bingo card," no matter what size your IT shop.
Some of the interesting stats that jumped out at me: these shops are spending almost 3 percent of revenue on IT. The document breaks out how much is spent on personnel vs. technology vs. other, and how much is devoted to new projects vs. maintaining existing ones. Some of the data is split by industry which will give you an even better feel for what your peers -- or the leaders in your industry -- are doing.
The most important innovation goal for the group is business process management (BPM). Lowering costs -- both IT and overall business costs -- is the second most important goal. But that objective is ranked less important by the 100 largest companies on the list, as a group. Presumably they think they have already accomplished that objective.
The group as a whole is big into server virtualization but that is also ranked low by the top 100. Again, I assume they mean they have already crossed that bridge. There are 45 or so tables with similar great data, on such things as adoption of open source, wireless e-mail, Web 2.0 and more.

- Forum: How Do I?
- Thread: How can I make tulips?
I have made tulips before, but it's been at least 3 years. I tried looking in my stuff, but only found dafadil instructions. I think I may have based it on that. But, in a quick google search, this link - http://www.ehow.com/how_7346433_tulip-fondant-flower-instructions.html seems to be pretty close to what I did. This link - http://dianesdecoratingdiary.blogspot.com/2009/01/gumpaste-tulip-tutorial.html - gives you pictures. HTH

The Toothpick

The Toothpick
This past week I was in my car along with Gwen and the two grandchildren. We were on our way to reunite the children with their mother after we had spent the day chasing Bryson, the 18 month-old, from room to room all around the house and entertaining Braelyn, the 4 year-old, with multiple showings of Mickey Mouse Club House. On our way to meet their mother, I was partaking of one of God's most heavenly meals – a peanut butter sandwich and a Coca Cola – while the rest of the family was well into their chicken nuggets. Upon completion of my meal, I followed my standard operating procedure of reaching for a toothpick. I had just gotten it squarely in my mouth when Braelyn, who was in her child's car seat in the back of the car, shouted out, "Papa, don't eat that. That's gross!"
My first inclination was to question, where did a 4 year-old learn the meaning of "gross?" But upon further reflection, I realized that here was my granddaughter, completely engrossed (I thought) in devouring her own meal, but yet who still had her eyes on her Papa. Eyes on her Papa.
Philippians 1: 27 says "Only let your conversation (conduct) be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel."
If Braelyn thought my use of a toothpick was gross, I wondered about the rest of my conduct before her. Has it been such that 'becometh the gospel of Christ?' May we all be reminded that, if we call ourselves Christians, our conduct is to be a reflection of our calling. Let us remember that people are watching – especially the children. Remember the toothpick.
Pastor Mike

The introduction of the wedding party has become more spectacle than ceremony over the last few years, there's the choreographed Chris Brown dance bit, the ever clever sunglasses routine, and my personal favourite: the individual wrestler's theme music for each member as they walk down the aisle.
This creative approach featuring a Detroit Red Wings fan and Chicago Blackhawks fan ends the only way Joey Kocur and Bob Probert would have wanted it to… in fisticuffs. If I can get critical for a moment, they probably could have done better than a Blackhawks era Chelios versus Nick Lidstrom… I'm just saying.

On Saturday, June 28, the Heritage Quilt Guild and the Starr Mountain Quilts of Valor organizations will be presenting a one-day quilt show at the McMinn County Living Heritage Museum, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The McMinn County Veteran's Affairs Office will be at hand to distribute many of the quilts to local veterans in honor of their service to our country.
Catherine Roberts of Delaware began the Quilts of Valor Foundation in 2003. The organization generates a maximum number of quilts by linking quilt-toppers with machine quilters. The partnership of quilters provides wartime quilts, called Quilts of Valor, that are a tangible reminder of an American's appreciation and gratitude to our veterans.
The Quilts of Valor Foundation has become a national grassroots community service effort, connecting the home-front with our wounded combat warriors and veterans.
A Quilt of Valor is a generous lap-sized quilt (minimum of 55-by-65 inches) made by a "quilt-topper" (the piecer) of quality fabrics and beautifully quilted by a "longarmer" (the machine quilter). After it has been bound, washed, labeled and wrapped in a presentation case, it is ready to be awarded.
Quilts are awarded at many different levels: they may go to military hospitals where chaplains award them to service members; there may be presentations of Quilts of Valor to entire service units returning from combat deployments; and they may be awarded Veteran Affairs events like the June 28 Starr Mountain Quilts of Valor event at the McMinn County Living Heritage Museum.
The McMinn County Living Heritage Museum works to preserve the community's distinctive history and to share the rich heritage and unique culture of Southeast Tennessee.
Explore more than 10,000 artifacts in 30 permanent exhibits representing the culture and history of our region from the 1700s to the 1940s.
Check the website www.livingheritagemuseum.com for the 2014 Heritage School Saturday schedules.
The Museum is open Tuesday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m, and is located at 522 West Madison Ave. in Athens.

The residents of the home called 911 at about 1:30 this morning, saying that two men had stolen mature plants off of their deck. The two plants reportedly have a street value of $600 to $700 apiece. One of the residents says that he thought he recognized one of the suspects, but no arrests have been reported as of yet.

I have an armchair that has a metal plate on the underside that says, This is a Cushman Colonial Creation, No 5 - 871
My questions are: 1) Can you tell me about the chair?
Thank you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
The "Cushman Colonials" line of Cushman furniture was begun in 1933....so your chair is no older than that. I don't know when it stopped being made. It's very solid stuff and they always said they were "colonial reproductions" but they had a more modern feeling to me. I grew up eating from a Cushman dining table and chairs. We kept the dishes in the matching china cabinet. No....do NOT put linseed oil on it!! if it's really dirty clean it with mineral spirits and then wax with a good paste wax. There is an arm chair on ebay for a "buy it now" for $199....which is not to say what it's worth, but only the asking price. Linda C |

Can we see another pic of the Aloe-whole thing? Has it ever bloomed? The other is Pachy-something. My brain won't kick in at the moment. I'll be back! =) |

#1 NoID Aloe - photo of whole plant outside in full sun (leaves darker); so far it didn't bloom, just getting too many pups: |

#1 looks like my A. grandidentata...but I'm sure it could be argued. It's a heavy-pupper for me! |

Agree with Rosemarie about the Grapto-something. The last one is Haworthia cymbiformis variegata |
- Posted by rosemariero6 z10 /ss24 So. Calif. (My Page) on Wed, Feb 13, 13 at 21:04
I don't know if it's on the market or not, but your #2 looks something like xGraptophytum 'Amphitryon'. Parentage : (Graptopetalum amethystinum x Pachyphytum glutinicaule) I think Howard has it on the Haworthia! =) Tricked me...maybe without the rocks, the rosette would flatten out a little. |
Here is a link that might be useful: xGraptophytum 'Amphitryon'
Rosemarie & Howard Thank you for your efforts. |
Aloe #1 could be many things, but most likely maculata (aka saponaria).. Aloe #3 is most likely Aloe claviflora or falcata, with a few less likely possibilities such as pachygaster or maybe namibensis... however these last two are pretty uncommon in cultivation. All look basically very similar, though flowers will help distinguish most, or mature leaf patterns. |
- Posted by bikerdoc5968 6 SE MI (My Page) on Thu, Feb 14, 13 at 8:24
Rina, this is my Haworthia... that yours has small spines on the leaf edges does raise some question as to the ID but I am not familiar enough with the Aloe genus to know if there is a "look a like". |
- Posted by rosemariero6 z10 /ss24 So. Calif. (My Page) on Thu, Feb 14, 13 at 10:33
Rina, the last pic you show of the variegated guy does tend to look more like an Aloe (teeth on edges, but Haws have them as well). The other pic, showing thin leaves~seemed like you could see through them, making me think Haworthia. Not so sure it would be A. nobilis, but that is a possibility. Yes, also possible it is etiolated. Wait till it grows a bit & we can have another crack at it! =) I also agreed with Geoff, that #1 Aloe could be maculata. |
I thought of a slightly stretched variegated Alworthia 'Black Gem.' I really don't know what I'm talking about, but it doesn't strike me as a Haw somehow with the leaf shape and how they're sticking upward. The base of the second variegated guy pictured really strikes me as an Aloe--hrmm--but I don't want to ruffle any feathers by saying! :) |
Howard Thank you for the photo -beautiful plant-,it shows what I mean by 'succulent' leaves, on mine they are not. Hope it will be easier to ID as it grow. Thank you to everyone for commenting.

Poonam Pandey goes full monty for 'Nasha'
The dare bare girl Poonam Pandey has showed her nude side again in the new poster of her debut movie, 'Nasha'. The sexy girl has shed her clothes and goes full monty for the new poster launched recently. Poonam hide her secret asset behind two placards. The placard read: "Nasha...Get addicted this monsoon".
'Nasha' is a story of 18-year-old boy gets attracted towards 25 year old woman. He falls head over heels for the girl and she too seduces her and takes him to bed. The trailer shows, Poonam Pandey sheds her clothes and get intimate with the boy. She becomes an obsession for the boy and the obsession later turns violent.
The movie is directed by Amit Saxena of 'Jism' fame, 'Nasha' is all set for July 26th. The director is full of praise for Poonam, he said that she understands her role very easily and portrayed without any effort.
"I was completely blown by the talent she (Poonam Pandey) has, by the talent that was on display and it was effortless. She was absolutely effortless," Saxena has said.
"There was not a single moment when I felt that I am working with a newcomer or I have to be extra careful - nothing! She made it such a wonderful ride for me," added Saxena.
For the role, Poonam, 22, has apparently gained some weight for the film. "I was skeptical before going ahead with it but when I read the script, I thought I would not justify the role unless I don't gain some weight to fit the bill," Poonam said.
"Nasha is a passionate love story between an 18-year-old boy and a 25-year-old girl. Yes, it's a bold film, but it's basically a simple love story. It's a very different subject and Poonam has done a great job in the film," said director Amit Saxena.
Well, the audience is desperate to watch the passionate love story of Poonam Pandey!

The film was produced after director Loic Prigent followed Roitfeld around the most recent Paris couture week — to the shows, couture fittings with everyone from Azzedine Alaia to Jean Paul Gaultier, and then finally at a W shoot for which she models the couture looks she chose.

I'm not sure if these poodles got their fur colored with organic dyes or the ones that you use because "you're worth it," but I'm sure I've never noticed any dog fur dye section in my local pet shop.
We have a poodle named Pooh, but she's not big in the hair department, so there isn't any possibility of recreating these fantasty updos for this weekend/ I would imagine that styling these furry 'fros requires a form of saintly patience from both groomer and dog that might usually be associated with people who count toothpicks!
Pooh thinks it's all just a passing trend!

Elizabethans were great believers in structure, balance, and order. One example of this is the sumptuary laws of the time, which, among other things, insisted that certain colored clothing could only be worn by certain of classes of people. Offenders of this law were usually fined. The popular Elizabethan belief that the body is made up of four humors – Sanguine, Choleric, Phlegmatic and Melancholic – that when unbalanced could cause instability in mental and physical health shows that balance in one's personal demeanor was also important.
The Comedy of Errors is a play full of disorder, seemingly caused by forces both natural and supernatural. Elizabethans believed that everything from rocks and minerals to the highest celestial beings were a part of a great order of things called the Great Chain of Being. Luciana references this concept in her speech in 2.1: "There nothing situate under heaven's eye / But hath his bound in earth and sea and sky." She goes on to cite the female's place below her male counterpart's in this chain, not only as humans but also within the animal kingdom:
"The beasts, the fishes, and the winged fowl, / Are their males' subjects and at their controls.
Man, more divine, the master of all these… / Are master to their females and their lords"
In the Great Chain of Being, when everything was set in its proper place there was great harmony. However, if one thing was out of sorts it could set off a chain of chaotic events. The chain reaction in The Comedy of Errors starts with a storm that separates the members of Egeon's family, followed by laws broken in Egeon's attempt to mend that situation. Identities are mistaken, a marriage is seemingly ruined by a browbeating wife (another disturbance within the chain), and reputations are lost. Once the order is violated, it is difficult even for the person in authority, Duke Solinas, to set things straight. Divinity, taking the form of the Abbess, must finally step in and reconcile all.
What other systems of balance, order, and structure are evident in our society today? What are the consequences for disruptions in these systems?

0 comments - Posted Jul 25, 2012
Like many people, I have a soft spot for salty chips, butterscotch sundaes, cheesecake, meat loaf, mashed potatoes, fried chicken, and countless other comfort foods. A couple of martinis, accompanied by plump, red, pimento-filled olives, are another pleasant indulgence. And martinis were exactly what my wife Pat and I were drinking during the 2-for-1 Happy Hour at a chic Atlantic City bar during a vacation about five years ago.

Find exactly what you're looking for with the web's most powerful recipe filtering tool.
I am going to use this spot to put some of my favorite cooking tips and tricks that don't really warrant going in as a recipe and so I don't lose them!!
Get rid of fruit flies - small dish with vinegar and few drops of dish washing detergent
Whipped Cream ahead of time - line a strainer with cheesecloth or coffee filter - spoon in whipped cream set inside a bowl and put in fridge. Some liquid will drip through but what remains will stay thick - even possibly overnight. Discard the liquid or whip it back into the mix if you want.
Store brown sugar and marshmallows in the freezer - they won't get stale.
If you don't do that add hardened marshmallows to hot applesauce or stewed rhubarb! Delish
Place 2 tbsp of butter in your baking dish and pour it around the dish. Then place the dish in the freezer for a few minutes until hardened. Pour in your batter and bake - the cake will pop right out every time.
I love canned biscuits. You can make so many things with them. Cut a hole and fry - you have a donut. Flatten them - you have a pie crust. Stretch and wrap around hot dogs or little smokies - you have pigs in a blanket. Flatten them, spread with butter and sprinkle on sugar and cinnamon - you have a tasty tea biscuit. Add 1/2 cup of shredded cheese to a can of biscuits then roll thin and cut into small squares, bake till crisp - you have cheesy snack crackers.
To strain broth remove meat and bones. Line a colander with a double layer of cheese cloth and place over bowl.
I always use red potatoes for a potatoe salad as they don't absorb excess dressing or break apart as easily as other varities.
Handy Help Measurer:
1 cup of these fruits and or veggies should equal close to one item: carrot, onion, potato, sweet pepper, apples, tomato
2 1/2 c. sliced carrots = 1 lb raw carrots
4 cups green beans = 1lb fresh beans
1 cup mashed banana = 3 medium bananas
1 tsp grated lemon rind = 1 medium lemon
2 Tbsp lemon juice = 1 medium lemon
1 cup orange juice = 3 medium oranges
4 cups sliced peaches = 8 medium peaches
2 cups sliced strawberries = 1 pint strawberries
1 cup soft breadcubes = 2 slices bread
1 cup egg whites = 6-7 large eggs
3 1/2-4 cup chopped nuts = 1 lb nuts
RICE NOTES: 1 cup white rice, 2 cups water = 3 cups cooked rice
Never stir rice while cooking unless the recipe says too - this will make it sticky.
Squeeze lemon juice into cooking water for a great flavor and wonderfully white rice
To seperate grains sauce rice in a bit of oil or butter before adding liquid.

345 McFarlane to Chifley
Cablegram 2675, LONDON, 9 August 1948, 6.45 p.m.
After further reflection on all circumstances suggest you consider approach along following lines.
(1) Gesture in paragraph 15 of your 2915[1] might take form of sharing sterling area contribution to other countries under clearing scheme which would likely involve grants but may include credits. Our contribution would be dual benefit to both Britain and others. A grant if practicable would be more effective.
(2) Figure indicated in your paragraph 15 would be useful but suggest you consider increase if Britain's contribution is substantial.
(3) If this idea appeals it should come as a spontaneous gesture and be sounded out with British Authorities as to form, effect and time.
(4) This method is a matter between us and Britain but would help later approach under your paragraph 9(c).
Above message was radioed from 'Queen Mary' to Nimmo in London.

This picture best describes the state of my entire vine except for new growth at the top of the canopy with itty bitty clusters forming, is it to late to apply a fungicide to save the fruit? Will the fruit still be edible? The grapes on the majority of clusters are about 1/4 to 1/2 inch in diameter. The leaves are a little worse off than this pic, some very grayish, most with brown spots / areas. Comments and advice much appreciated. |

Looks to me like your fruit and vines are covered in a massive case of powdery mildew. There is no saving the fruit at this point. You might try to salvage enough leaves to muster a crop next year. For control you need to start back in early spring. UC Davis has good guidelines. |
Here is a link that might be useful: powdery mildew

Thank you fruitnut, what about the cane, should I prune it back in the fall? Now? What do you mean by saving a few leaves? The cane appears affected as well on closer inspection and comparison to images of diseased specimens online. I am a first time grower, I read plenty, somehow missed the spring prep and diseases to watch for. This vine is on an arbor (no shade) and is 8 feet tall by 15 feet in length (the vine). Thanks again for the link, I'll check it out. Just wondering what to do in the interim with a bum crop. |
The fruit, leaves, and canes can be infected, yours are badly. Your fruit is beyond saving so remove all of it now. Spraying sulfur or another fungicide from the link above now might help maintain some leaves to strength the vine for next years crop. Don't worry about what's on the canes and don't prune off anything now except do remove all fruit. It will just rot later if not removed and is draining the vine. You will need to do your normal pruning next winter. If it were me I'd get one of the strong systemic fungicides and spray as directed the rest of this year. Not sure it will help but won't hurt. The link above recommends many classes of fungicide, chose one of those. |
In case I wasn't specific enough the best fungicides are Elite, Procure, Rally, Rubigan, Abound, Flint, Sovran, and Pristine or others with those active ingredients. Spray one of these to try to keep the leaves alive. Don't remove any leaves except you can burn or dispose of dead ones. You need the leaves and canes now to store carbohydrates for next years crop. Removing the fruit will reduce the drain on the plant. |

$11.4 Million Recovered for Family of Man Killed in I-5 Tunnel Fire
The Martinez Family v. Caltrans
On October 12, 2007, the largest roadway-tunnel mass collision in California history occurred in Los Angeles County near Santa Clarita. Thirty-three trucks and one car were involved in a chain reaction collision on southbound I-5. The initial collision involved a SAIA big rig that was going too fast for the wet conditions. When it crashed, it started a chain reaction that blocked the tunnel exit on the downhill side of the tunnel. A truck carrying diesel fuel on that downhill side ignited. The tunnel then acted as a chimney, incinerating those trapped inside as temperatures reached 1,400 degrees Fahrenheit. Three people were killed and many injured in the blaze. Our firm represents Victoria Martinez, the wife of Ricardo Cibrian Baltazar, and his two young children. Baltazar, a truck driver, was trapped in his big rig near the mouth of the tunnel. He died in the resulting fire.
The pile-up was the result of a combination of errors. Chief among them was the SAIA truck driver, who was driving too fast for the wet conditions. He lost control of his tractor and two trailers and crashed, blocking both lanes of travel and the shoulder outside the tunnel. The driver's errors were compounded by poor sight distance and lighting in the Caltrans-designed tunnel, and other truck drivers travelling too fast for the wet roadway conditions.
The Martinez family's case against Caltrans settled for $2.75 million. Thereafter, a settlement was reached between the Martinez family and the truck company that triggered this collision for an additional $3.75 million.

Best Way Out West Restaurant Denver 2007 - Vesta Dipping Grill
Ten years ago, Vesta broke new ground when it introduced the notion of a hip, sharp and trendy dipping grill to Denver. Amazingly, ten years later, the place remains the absolute definition of a hip, sharp, trendy and groundbreaking restaurant. In the interim, others have tried to copy the dipping-grill concept; what sets Vesta apart is chef Matt Selby's way out West cuisine -- an extreme, customer-driven fusion that owes its frisson to adventurous eaters willing to surrender themselves to anything coming out of this kitchen. Today, Vesta still feels like a wild, expressionistic experiment riding an opening-night rush -- a full decade after that opening night.

Las falsas reliquias en la literatura española del Siglo de Oro : a propósito de la polémica erasmista
Maria Isabel Toro Pascua
File (.pdf)
AbstractEven before the cult of relics began, there were already a good number of forgeries, which, together with the authentic remains, established the important corpus of sacred relics venerated for centuries in the Christian western world. The Medieval literature already included this issue in the comedy of manners; however, the mid 16th-Century literature echoed a more theoretical discussion on this controversial issue. In this paper, the author establishes a typology of the false or allegedly false relics criticised in pre-Trentine literature on the one hand, and, on the other hand, analyses how the supporters of Erasmus and the traditionalists viewed the three established types and corresponding thematic spheres. Undoubtedly these issues were debated during the discussions that preceded the Council of Trent (idolatry, superstitions and naivety of the religious cult, commerce and collection of spiritual things or pilgrimages). The decisions reached during the Council of Trent eliminate this critical perspective of literature, which, from that moment onwards and until Romanticism, deals with this theme in a similar way to medieval literature.

Hey guys,
I have recently acquired 24 used 2V 500Ah batteries reading 2.09V each which I plan to use for my future install. Now if i am correct, they will loose thier charge over time and possibly become useless/damaged. I have not purchased a charge controller neither solar panels as yet, but i do have a couple 60W panels that i experiment with laying around.
Now i was doing some research and came across this quote in the Battery FAQ section of the Forum.
Now, does this mean that if i configure my batteries into two parralell banks of 24V each totalling 1000Ah, that i can safely connect a panel outputting 1.6A to maintain a float charge?When using a small solar panel to keep a float (maintenance) charge on a battery (without using a charge controller), choose a panel that will give a maximum output of about 1/300th to 1/1000th of the amp-hour capacity. For a pair of golf cart batteries, that would be about a 1 to 5 watt panel - the smaller panel if you get 5 or more hours of sun per day, the larger one for those long cloudy winter days in the Northeast.
Can anyone elaborate on this, as it apears to be an economical way to save my battery investment, until I decide on my panels and charge controler.
Thanks in advance.
