Linda, you'll need to be a bit more specific for us to help you. Is the entire blue center done and then you just go around the entire thing with white? Or are you knitting a few stitches in white, the large center in blue, then a few stitches in white again? If that is the case, you need to twist/wrap the blue and white yarns once when you knit the next color in order to avoid a hole, sort of like when you are doing intarsia |
Here is a link that might be useful: avoiding a hole
What I do in crocheting is not tie on my new color or skein but just hold it and make a loop and put the hook thru the loop and start crocheting also it is better to start a new skein or color at the end of a row so there will be no hole. Hope this helps Darlene |

Then the link I gave you will help you avoid the holes. |

Yes Donna the link you gave me helped. The patteren Is knit 6 purl what ever is in the center then knit 6. next row is knit 6 knit the center then knit 6. I have trouble twisting the yarn from the knit then to the purl. But I'm getting it. again thank you Linda |

A collection of classic works by the turn-of-the-twentieth-century horror master offers insight into his unique style and includes such pieces as, "The Shadow Out of Time," "The Colour Out of Space," "The Shadow Over Innsmouth," and "At the Mountains of Madness."
Blackwell North Amer
This volume brings together 22 tales, the very best of Howard Phillips Lovecraft's fiction. Early stories such as "The Outsider," "The Music of Erich Zann," "Herbert West - Reanimator," and "The Lurking Fear" demonstrate Lovecraft's uncanny ability to blur the distinction between reality and nightmare, sanity and madness, the human and the non-human. "The Horror at Red Hook" and "He" reveal the fascination and revulsion Lovecraft felt for New York City; "Pickman's Model" uncovers the frightening secret behind an artist's work; "The Rats in the Walls" is a terrifying descent into atavistic horror; and "The Colour Out of Space" explores the eerie impact of a meteorite on a remote Massachusetts valley.
& Taylor
Collects short stories by H.P. Lovecraft, including "The Outsider," "Cool Air," "Pickman's Model," and "The Dreams in the Witch House."
From Library Staff
Recommended as a classic fantasy author "you owe it to yourself to read." Martin does not mention specific titles.
Creepy, mind numbing - the father of sci-fi horror.

Add a CommentThis book is truly wonderful. The terms Lovecraft uses are applicable today: intangible miasma, mongrel riff-raff...what fun!
And if you want to insult someone who isn't well read, say that person has The Innsmouth Look and walk away. I did this once to a fish-like person who pushed ahead of me at a deli counter and he called after me, "What does that mean?" Pure bliss.
I had always wanted to read Lovecraft, but never did until i got this book. 22 stories. How much I liked each story varied considerably, but there were many i loved. Easy to see how many modern authors and scriptwriters have been influenced by this master of suspense and horror. I guarantee at least one of these stories ( some of them VERY short and easy to quickly read to get a feel for the author ) will impress you if you like horror.
A beautiful deluxe collection of all of Loveecraft's best short fiction. Lovecraft published his creepy fiction in the pulp magazones of his time. I'm sure he never imagined such reverential treatment for that work. It is a pleasure to read his work so loveingly preserved.
As for the work itself, if you feel drawn to the unameable dread that stirs in the darkest part of night when sounds emanate from between the walls, Lovecraft practically created the genre.
Who'da thunk it!? The old mad Arab Abdul Alhazred himself on acid free paper, in a sturdy library binding and with a learned dissertation included!! Despite all that do NOT, under any circumstances, read this alone in an old dark house on a dark and stormy night! Be warned thou spawn of Cthulhu!

Well, I got up at 5 this morning and turned on the local news in time to hear them mention a murder on a road in my neighborhood. They aren't giving out many details: stabbing, gunshot, names, etc. But they did call it a murder and have a team there. What has me concerned is that: a, it's MY neighborhood and b, the body was discovered at 7pm. It's still daylight here at that time.
Looks like I get to check out my property now and hunt for weak spots in my security. Any ideas? I don't want to place cameras, but I don't want open windows either.

If plug-in hybrid cars and trucks become a common sight, don't look for the Honda badge to be among them. Honda Motor Co. Chief Executive Takeo Fukui believes plug-in hybrid gasoline-electric vehicles don't have enough environmental benefits for Honda to pursue, according to The Wall Street Journal. Toyota executives recently made similarly disparaging comments about plug-in hybrids.
General Motors, of course, has a high profile project to develop the gas-electric hybrid Chevy Volt. "My feeling is that the kind of plug-in hybrid currently proposed by different auto makers can be best described as a battery electric vehicle equipped with an unnecessary fuel engine and fuel tank," Mr. Fukui told The Journal. GM is sticking to its plan to launch the Volt in the U.S. by 2010. You can track news about the Volt's progress on the official GM site.
– Tom Kessler
UPDATE Oct. 31, 2007 – GM-Volt reported that GM's Bob Lutz says the company has received the first experimental battery packs from its supplier and that "he hopes for 60,000 to 100,000 vehicles to be produced in the first model year."

This week's top trends ranged from gorgeous spring-like editorials to unique iPad covers made of duct tape. Fashion, tech and bizarre finds were highly coveted by readers, many of which featured minimalist or subdued designs.
In the fashion world, we saw some amazing juxtaposition in terms of photo shoot aesthetics. The Pop 'The New York Now' editorial was a rather ethereal take on fashion photography, with a surrealist twist to add visual interest. 'La Justiciere,' an editorial in Twill Magazine, showed a much darker side, with a dark setting and armor-like accessories.
One of the big breakout stories this week was a photo series that depicted a man who has accumulated a Barbie collection worth $30,000. Unsurprisingly, the collection and the man behind it intrigued many readers.

Bahrain-US Free Trade Agreement (FTA) Signed
14 September, 2004 Reads:10263
The Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between the Kingdom of Bahrain and the United States of America was signed today in Washington D.C. at 10:30 a.m. (5:30 p.m. Bahrain local time).
The FTA was signed in the prestigious Indian Treaty Room of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, next to the White House. A room that witnessed the signing of a number of historical international treaties including Bretton Woods - establishing the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) - and the UN Charter.
Signing for the Bahraini side was H.E. Abdulla Hassan Saif, the Minister of Finance & National Economy, and for the United States the US Trade Representative (USTR) Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick.
In his speech at the signing ceremony, H.E. Saif conveyed best wishes from His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, His Highness the Prime Minister, Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa, and His Highness the Crown Prince and Commander-in-Chief of the Bahrain Defence Force, Shaikh Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa.
The Minister referred to the event as the result of a strong commitment by the political leadership in both countries to develop further the two nations' strong relationship.
He praised the Bahraini and US teams of negotiators for their continuous dedication and hard work that made the FTA a reality. "They worked tirelessly to realize this historic moment," he said.
He also expressed his deep gratitude to the co-chairs of the Bahrain Congressional Caucus, U.S. Representatives Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Jim Turner (D-TX) and to the co-chairs of the US-Bahrain Free Trade Agreement Coalition (USBFTAC), Mr. Lionel Johnson of Citigroup Inc and Mr. William Rice of ALCOA. He said the coalition would not have been functional however without the continuous efforts of the co-secretariats : The Business Council for International Understanding (BCIU), The National Foreign Trade Council (NFTC), The National US-Arab Chamber of Commerce (NUSACC) and the member companies.
The Minster echoed scholarly sources, saying that the islands which now constitute the Kingdom of Bahrain first stepped onto the stage of history some 5,000 years ago as the centre of one of the great trading empires of the ancient world. This was the civilization of Dilmun which developed as the regional centre of trade and commerce because of its location along major trade routes. In the early decades of the 20th century, oil was discovered in Bahrain. However, Bahrainis maintained a close focus on the traditional trading activities which had sustained them for thousands of years.
From 1975, many financial institutions began to look for a stable base in the Middle Eastern region. The natural choice was Bahrain. Building on its long history of trade and commerce, it was an easy step for most of the world's banking giants to move their operations to Manama. A concerted effort to upgrade Bahrain's legal, social and technological infrastructures has allowed the financial industry to flourish with confidence in an environment of transparent transactions.
According to recent studies, the banking sector in Bahrain today has assets of some $108 billion US (end of June 04). Bahrain is now home to some 362 financial institutions which includes banking units, representative offices, money and foreign exchange brokers, insurance companies and reinsurance. "Bahrain is incontestably the Financial Capital of the Middle East," said H.E. the Minister.
He reviewed the significant political and social progress of which Bahrainis are justifiably proud, citing the promulgation of the new Constitution; the bi-cameral legislature which includes the Shura Council and the House of Deputies; and the Bahraini women's right to vote and run for national office. "In the United Nations' Development Index which ranks nations on a variety of human development axes, Bahrain is 36 out of the 174 nations included in the survey; ahead of all Arab countries," he added.
The first round of the FTA negotiations was launched on 26 – 29 January 2004 in Manama, followed by a second round in Washington D.C. on 1 – 5 March. An interim round of technical discussions was held in London on 19 – 22 April. On 27 May 2004, the Minister of Finance & National Economy and the US Trade Representative announced the successful conclusion of the negotiations.
The FTA aims at achieving extensive liberalization across a wide spectrum of trade issues, both in terms of goods and services. The Agreement promotes a liberalized, non-discriminatory trade environment for E-commerce. It also calls for enhanced intellectual property rights protection. Commitments to ensure transparency and efficiency in customs administration are included. Specific rules of origin are laid out to ensure that only Bahrain and U.S. goods benefit from the preferential duty treatment of the Agreement.
The first step in establishing the US-Bahrain FTA was the Treaty on the Encouragement and Reciprocal Protection of Investment, signed between the two countries on 29 September 1999. Next came signature of the Trade and Investment Framework Agreement (TIFA) on 18 June 2002.
Attending the signing ceremony were H.E. Shaikh Khalifa bin Ali Al Khalifa, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Bahrain to the US, Dr. Naser M. Y. Al Belooshi, Bahrain's Economic Representative to the US, Mr. Khaled Mohammed Kanoo, Chairman, Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Mr. Yousif A. Humood, Director of Economic Planning, MOFNE, and a number of officials from MOFNE and other ministries and agencies.

Important Information >>
By David Radtke
This handsome little cabinet just might solve the universal problem of never having enough drawer space. Small enough to tuck under a desk, it's also designed to stand on its own, and its wide top can easily accommodate a printer or a fax machine.
You can build this cabinet in a weekend or two, because it's made with simple joinery. The case assembles with biscuits and pocket screws, and the drawers go together with lock rabbet joints. There's no fussy drawer hardware to install, just cut-in hand grips and screwed-on hardwood runners to guide the drawers.
Despite its simple joinery, this cabinet is very sturdy, and it can be easily altered. Make it taller. Change the drawer sizes. Add doors. And don't let the "office" designation fool you— switch to MDF or Baltic birch to build a great shop cabinet.
Both the cabinet and the drawers must be perfectly square to allow the drawers to glide freely without binding. Make sure that your lumber is milled flat; ditto for your glued-up top and sides. Draw accurate layout lines and verify that your tool set-ups are square.
1. Milling and gluing solid wood for the sides and top does take a fair amount of time, so keep in mind that you can substitute edge-banded hardwood plywood for these parts, without compromising the integrity of the cabinet.
2. Joint and plane your stock to thickness. Then select and cut boards for the top (A, Fig. A) and the sides (B).
3. Glue the panels together. To keep the board faces flush, I glue the joints one at a time (Photo 1).
4. Trim the glued-up panels to final size. After trimming, stack the two sides, to make sure they're identical in width, length and squareness.
5. Cut the side arches. Then finishsand the sides and the top.
6. Locate the sides on the bottom of the top (Photo 2). Make sure your layout lines are square to the front edge and parallel to one another.
7. To locate the biscuit slots on the top and sides, clamp each side outsideface up to top's bottom face (Photo 3). Align the side's inside top edge with the layout line and make sure the back edges are flush. Cut the slots into the sides. Then stand the biscuit joiner on edge and butt it against the cabinet side to cut the slots into the top. Complete the other side in the same manner.
8. Drill pocket holes in the inside faces of each side, as shown in Fig A. The locations aren't specific; center them between the slots and keep them at least an inch away from the outer edges. Drill pocket holes in the stretchers (C) at this time as well.
9. To assemble each joint, glue biscuits in the slots in the top, spread glue into the slots in the side pieces, and screw the pocket screws through the sides into the top (Photo 4). Use a large square to make sure the sides remain square to the top as you drive the screws.
10. Flip the cabinet over onto a flat surface and position 2-7/8" wide spacers on the inside (Photo 5). Set the stretchers onto the spacers. Locate the front stretcher 1-1/8" back from the front of the cabinet, and the back stretcher 1/4" away from the back. Clamp the sides to the stretchers and then drive in the pocket screws.
11. Rip the drawer fronts, sides and backs (D through J) to width and then cut them to length.
12. Install a drawer lock bit (see Sources, below) in your router table and make test cuts in scrap stock to correctly adjust the bit's height. (For complete how-to on using drawer lock router bits, see "Lock Rabbet Drawer Joinery," AW #92, Feb '02, page 60). Rout the ends of the drawer sides first (Photo 6). Then change the fence and rout the ends of the drawer fronts and backs (Photo 7).
13. Cut 1-1/8" by 5-1/8" hand grips in the drawer fronts and smooth the curves by sanding.
14. Cut a groove for the drawer bottom (K) in each drawer piece, starting 3/8" from the bottom edge. These grooves always go on the routed face. Match the groove's width to the thickness of your drawer bottom material. Cut six drawer bottoms to final size.
15. Install a dado blade in your table saw and cut a 3/8" deep by 3/4" wide runner slot in the outside face of each drawer side, starting 1-1/2" from the bottom edge (Photo 8).
Using the same setup, cut notches through the ends of all the drawer backs, so that the runner slots and notches align when the drawers are assembled. Install a tall auxiliary fence on your miter gauge to support the drawer backs when sawing these end grain notches. DO NOT cut notches in the drawer fronts.
16. Assemble the drawers (Photo 9). Apply glue to each lock joint and run a bead of glue in the grooves to secure the bottom. Gluing in the bottom helps to keep the drawer solid and square. I find that it works best to glue and nail one joint, seat the drawer bottom into this corner assembly, and then add the remaining parts. I check to make sure the drawer is square, and then nail the remaining three joints. Brad nails effectively clamp the joints while the glue dries, but if you don't have a brad nailer, simply clamp the drawers and make sure they're square before setting them aside to dry.
17. The drawers slide on runners (L) installed inside the cabinet. For the drawers to operate smoothly, these runners must be correctly located and precisely sized. The first step is to make supports (M) that will automatically position the runners. Two of these supports will be permanently installed inside the cabinet (one on each side, at the back), to allow for the solid wood's seasonal movement. Start with a 6" x 22-5/8" board (it should fit snugly inside the cabinet, between the bottom stretcher and the top). Using the dimensions in Fig. B, and measuring from the bottom to the top, lay out the six 3/4" dadoes that will house the runners. Raise the dado set to 13/32" and cut the dadoes, using your miter gauge.
18. Rip the dadoed board into three or four 1-1/4" wide pieces to create the runner supports. Mark the bottom end of each piece, for reference.
19. Mill the drawer runners and test their fit in the drawers' runner slots—the runners must slide freely. If the fit is too tight, shave a bit from the runners' width.
20. Tip the cabinet on its side and clamp a 3/4" wide spacer flush with the front edge (Photo 10). This spacer positions the runners so the drawers will be slightly recessed inside the cabinet.
21. Position a pair of runner supports between the cabinet top and the stretchers. Fasten the rear support to the cabinet side, 1/4" inside the back edge (flush with the stretcher), to allow room for the cabinet back (N). Slide the runners through the supports' dadoes and butt them against the front spacer. Fasten the front end of each runner with two countersunk screws. Then remove the front runner support. The back ends of the runners are held in position by the permanently installed support. Tip the cabinet onto its other side and install the remaining runners.
22. Cut and fit the front apron (P). Drill pocket holes in the back and cut the arch at the bottom. Glue and clamp the apron to the front stretcher and install the pocket screws.
23. Test fit the drawers (Photo 11). A tight fit is good, because it's pretty easy to make the runners thinner. If the fit is too loose, you'll have to make new runners or glue strips of veneer into the drawers' runner slots.
24. Once you like the fit, it's easy to make the drawers slide "like buttah" (Photo 12).
25. Install the top cleat (Q) 1/4" inside the back edge, so it's flush with the runner supports. Cut, fit and install the cabinet back.
26. Apply your favorite finish. I like an oil/varnish blend, such as MinWax Antique Oil.
Click any image to view a larger version.
1. Glue up the panels for the sides and top. Work on a flat surface and glue the joints one at a time.
2. Mark the location of the sides' inside edges on the top's bottom face. Use a large square for accuracy.
3. Cut biscuit slots in the top and sides. Then drill holes for pocket screws on the inside face of each side.
4. Fasten the sides to the top with glue, biscuits and screws. Clamp a fence to the outside edge of the top, to hold the side in position as you drive in the pocket screws.
5. Use spacers and clamps to accurately position the stretchers, so you can drive the pocket screws. Frequently check the cabinet during assembly, to make sure it remains square.
6. Use a drawer lock bit to create the drawer joints. First, rout both ends of each drawer side. A shopmade jig stabilizes the workpiece, holds it against the fence, and prevents blowout on the back edge.
7. Reposition the fence to shape the ends of drawer fronts and backs. Set the fence so the depth of the cut matches the thickness of the drawer sides.
8. Saw the runner slot in the outside face of each drawer side. These slots will be used to mount the assembled drawer in the cabinet. Always orient the bottom edge of the workpiece against the fence.
9. Assemble the drawers with glue and brad nails. Check each joint to make sure the drawer is square.
10. Use supports and a spacer to accurately position the drawer runners for fastening. Make the supports by cutting dadoes in a wide board and then ripping it. The spacer establishes the drawers' setback at the front.
11. Check the fit. If the drawer is too tight, remove both runners and shave a bit of thickness from each one. Reinstall the runners and try again. Keep removing and shaving until the drawers slide freely.
12. To make the drawers slide effortlessly, brush a coat of shellac into the runner slots and onto the runners. Let the shellac dry and then sand lightly.

Acquitted Hammond militia member joins suit against feds
Post-Tribune staff report April 9, 2013 9:54AM
This combo of eight photos provided by the U.S. Marshals Service on Monday March 29, 2010 shows from top left, David Brian Stone Sr., 44, of Clayton, Mich,; David Brian Stone Jr. of Adrian, Mich,; Jacob Ward, 33, of Huron, Ohio; Tina Mae Stone and bottom row from left, Michael David Meeks, 40, of Manchester, Mich,; Kristopher T. Sickles, 27, of Sandusky, Ohio; Joshua John Clough, 28, of Blissfield, Mich.; and Thomas William Piatek, 46, of Whiting, Ind., suspects tied to Hutaree, a Christian militia. Jury selection is getting under way in Detroit federal court Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012, nearly two years after the dramatic arrest of people who authorities say belonged to a southern Michigan militia with a goal of rebelling against the government. The trial is expected to last weeks. It involves seven of the nine people charged with belonging to a group called Hutaree. The government says they conspired to try to kill a police officer and plotted further strikes. No one was ever attacked, and the defendants say they're being prosecuted for saying stupid things.( AP Photo/U.S. Marshall)
Updated: May 11, 2013 6:23AM
A Hammond man acquitted last year of conspiring with a Michigan militia group to overthrow the federal government is now suing the FBI and Michigan police, claiming they lied to search his house and seize his guns.
Thomas Piatek, his co-defendant Michael Meeks and several of Meeks' relative filed the lawsuit March 27 in U.S. District Court in Detroit. They claim that FBI Special Agent Stephen Haug lied and gave misleading information that his fellow co-defendants — Michigan State Police Sgt. Sandra Larsen, FBI Special Agent Leslie Larsen and FBI Special Agent Christopher Allen — then used to obtain search warrants for Piatek's and Meeks' homes.
The FBI office in Detroit says it does not comment on ongoing litigation. A representative with the Michigan State Police could not be reached for comment.
Piatek was charged and arrested in 2010 with taking part in a conspiracy with the Hutaree, a Michigan militia that espouses negative views of the federal government, to plan to kill a police officer and then use the officer's funeral as a chance to kill more law enforcement officers. The group was recorded talking about their plans by an undercover FBI agent who had infiltrated the group.
However, the defendants argued that their talk was just that and they did not intend to go forward with any of it. A federal jury in Michigan agreed and acquitted them of the charges in March 2012.
The FBI raided Piatek's home in the 1900 block of Calumet Avenue in the city's Robertsdale section in 2010 and took 46 guns and 150 boxes of ammunition and other survival gear from his house. Piatek was ordered held without bond until he was acquitted, and his property was not returned until after he was released.
The suit says that because the information used to obtain a search warrant for Piatek's home was false and misleading, law enforcement officials had no right to take his property.
"No reasonably trained and experienced police officer or agent would have believed that the search of the homes of plaintiffs Thomas Piatek and Michael Meeks in March 2010 was lawful," the suit says.
The suit does not say what information was false and misleading, however, and Piatek's attorney, J. Nicholas Bostic, could not be reached for comment Tuesday.
Piatek is asking for at least $25,000 on each of his 10 counts claimed.

The TT-12i can capture images from all directions, thanks to an adjustable camera arm that can be swiveled to broaden the scope of classroom presentations. The solidly constructed camera arm holds its position and is easily operated for both left- and right-handed users.Product code #1341-7 MSRP:$1,239.00 |

For added emphasis, adjusting the amount of pressure applied to the pen when writing changes the thickness of the lines. The ELMO Tablet pen also works as a computer mouse to operate all your computer functions. |

Create a safe Oak Grove Elementary walking community
We are the Safe Routes to School Committee of Oak Grove Elementary School. We want to encourage children to walk or bike to school safely. Activities we have sponsored include walk/bike to school days, education campaigns, walking school buses, and parent surveys. We have learned from the surveys that certain infrastructure changes must be put into place to make this possible. They include: 1) Construction of sidewalks on Oak Grove (opposite the school) between Lavista and Briarcliff. Sidewalks on North Akin Drive and Kirkland. 2) Installation of a crosswalk or traffic light to serve the pedestrians on the westbound side of Oak Grove north of the school. 3) Speed monitoring devices on both sides of the school on Oak Grove. 4) Traffic study and appropriate infrastructure change during school arrival and dismissal times at Crestline Drive and Oak Grove. We urge the local government including the Dekalb County Public Works Department and State Department of Transportation to strongly consider our proposal. We believe in being proactive rather than retroactive after an unfortunate incident.

Holiday Gift Guide: Chillax Bean Bag
Normally, I wouldn't give any credence to something named "Chillax" but after seeing this bean bag in a Costco magazine, I'm a believer. Bean bags are one of my favorite anachronisms, withstanding the trends of time. So the Chillax still has a market, a place in your home, and a spot on this year's Pulpconnection Gift Guide.
I'm not sure if you can find the Chillax in Hawaii-based Costco locations. Ordering online may be necessary, but just think of the all the chillax-ing you can do during the holidays.

Recently reopened after refurbishment - with a new restaurant menu also available. Meal deals available on a daily basis.
Bugs Bar is a pub within the hotel.
Classic 15th cent. timber framed building which was being used as an inn by the early 16th cent. Family orientated with a lively bar. It was once a calling house for pilgrims on their way to Bury St Edmunds and was previouly called the Bull Inn and is believed to have once been named Boule House.
Original name may have derived from John Bull who owned pub in 1566 or from monastic seals i.e. a reference to a lead seal attached to a papal edict. Alternatively, bull baiting was also a popular local sport and may have once been practised nearby at about that time.
NB: Bull Inn closed in 1784. Current bar/restaurant reopened in 1955.
listed building grade II*

I have some azaleas in my front yard that I would like to move to the back. When is the best time of year to do this, and are there any special instructions to follow? Don't assume I know anything, I'm new to the whole gardening thing. ;-)
Denna |
Follow-Up Postings:
You can relocate azaleas any time of year when they are not in active growth (the period immediately following bloom) or the ground is not frozen. But if this isn't an emergency, I'd wait until the weather is cooler and you are a little closer to Fall rains...moving them now is going to require extra attention to watering, possibly even daily. The plants shallow rootball will extend out as far as the branches reach, but if weight is a consideration you can take a smaller rootball safely. Aim for a rootball with a diameter equal to two-thirds the plants height. Drag on cardboard or a tarp to the new site if they are larger than wheel barrow size. Unless quite small, don't lift by the main stem, weight of soil and root ball could be damaging to roots. Don't plant any deeper than it was originally growing, allow for settling if moving to a newly worked bed. Water well, keep moist, mulch. |
Thanks for the advice. :-) It's not an emergency, so I'll let it wait till September. The bushes are still small, they came with the new house and the builder planted them in the spring, I think. They're in full sun and definately not happy there (they tend to wilt, even with watering, and two have died), so since I wanted to redo that bed anyway, I figured I'd put them in my future shade garden, where they'd look nicer and might do better. |
If you are in Georgia, I'd wait until the second half of October or even November. |

The Chattanooga Symphony Orchestra is presented through special funding from Friends of the Park as part of the Civil War 150th commemoration.
The free concert will be a special and nostalgic evening for residents and visitors, who are invited to converge on the beloved tower with blankets, camp chairs, picnic baskets and a taste for stirring American music.
This will be a "green event" and so participants will be asked to carry-out what they carry-in to the concert as your part in taking care of your national military park.
In case of inclement weather on the day of the concert, unfortunately the concert will be cancelled. Parking will take place in the Recreation Field and other fields surrounding the Wilder Brigade Monument.
If a vehicle becomes mired due to wet field conditions, it may need to be towed at the owner's expense.

Face of Australia Festival at the Port of Sale on Saturday, 5th April. An extravaganza of entertainment from around the world. More information about this exciting event on the web-site www.faceofaustraliafestival.com.au
River cruises
October 22nd, 2013An exciting new venture has commenced providing another 'must do' experience for our district. The Port of Sale Heritage Cruises offer cruises twice daily from the Port of Sale to the Swing Bridge on the delightful historic boat 'Rubeena'. For further information phone 0400933112.
RAAF Graduation
October 16th, 2013Have just had another happy family from interstate stay in the cottages for their son's RAAF graduation at East Sale RAAF Base. The cottages are ideal for a mixed family group up to 8 people, with 2 bathrooms in each cottage it is easy for everyone to glam up for the big occasion.
Winter wonderland
June 23rd, 2013Following a wonderful week of steady rain, the wetland is flooded, the frogs are back and so are the tiny spiders called lerps which cover the wetland in their webs. A truly special sight, especially from your cosy cottage.
The misty season
May 5th, 2013The long, hot summer is over and we are moving into the chilly season.
This is a time of special beauty over the wetlands as the morning mists clear to sunny days.
Much as we would like some more rain, it is hard not to like a cool, clear, sunny day, specially if you can relax in a warm cosy cottage while enjoying the peace and serenity.
The wetland is finally drying out
January 24th, 2013After three years under water, the wetland is finally drying out, as it should. The birds are enjoying a feast as the water gets shallower, and we have pelicans, spoon-bills, ibis, lots of ducks, stilts and dotterels as well as the birds of prey, sea eagles, wedge tail eagles, whistling kites and swamp harriers. A bird-lovers paradise!!
Cottage garden flourishing
July 31st, 2012The garden around the cottages has responded very positively to the amazing rain we have had and the shrubs and trees have grown significantly. As a result we are now getting lots of birds around the cottages – Eastern Spinebills, wrens, wattlebirds and other honeyeaters, and of course the cockatoos, rosellas and galahs are still enjoying being fed by our guests.
Odour Free
March 12th, 2012Good news for those who may have stayed at our cottages and experienced the unpleasant odour from the nearby Regional Outfall Sewer. The successful completion of the Gippsland Water Factory has eliminated the products which used to cause the odour, and after six months odour free, we feel we can confidently assure you that the smell has gone. This is great news for us, as it was so disappointing to have our guests' experience spoilt by this nasty smell.
The wet continues
March 11th, 2012The wetland has remained very wet over the summer, and recently another flood raised the level of the water back to the top of the fence posts. My son took this great shot from a helicopter.
Wet wetlands for 2011
July 8th, 2011The abundance of rain has been a bonus to the cottages, with the wetland holding a massive amount of water, there will be no dry season this year. Although the winter has been chillier, many guests have enjoyed the cosy warm cottages while experiencing the beauty of winter. The frogs have started their evening chorus, so we expect a delightfully noisy spring.

I just bought Disney's Greatest Hits CD's box set the 5 pack one, 60 years of Disney! I like so many to choose just one. Well I love I can't wait to be King & Beauty and the Beast.
This may have been started before, but I couldn't find it. Thought about doing it as a poll, but there are just too many good songs in the Disney films!
I'll start:-
I love 'When you wish upon a star' because it is a beautiful song, and it has such meaningful words. I had a Disney record when I was small and I would always play that song. I always wish on stars, even now!

I had the lunch buffet recently at India's based on Westword's recommendation. I have eaten at many Indian restaurants in Denver, and around the U.S., and this is one of the worst meals I have had. Not only was the buffet choice thin, it felt like I was eating leftovers and just plain badly prepared food.
Bad choice Westword.

This is a very good, fragrance-free AHA exfoliant that contains 8% glycolic acid formulated at a pH to ensure it functions as an exfoliant. Although this offers the multiple benefits of using an AHA exfoliant, it is not rated higher due to the lack of other anti-aging ingredients such as antioxidants and skin-repairing substances. Those additions turn a good AHA exfoliant into a great one, and their absence makes this a less desirable though still effective option that's OK for normal to dry skin. Those with sensitive skin should proceed with caution, as 8% glycolic acid can be too much. If you have sensitive skin and want to try this exfoliant, apply it nightly every other night for the first few weeks and pay attention to how your skin responds.
Proven to significantly reduce and delay the onset of fine lines, wrinkles, forehead creases, crow's feet, laugh lines and more. With 8% Glycolic AHA at an effective pH 4, this cream effectively and safely lifts dead cells from the skin's surface, revitalizing & helping restore younger, healthy, more radiant-looking skin. Renews moisture, refines texture, improves elasticity and skin tone.
Water, Glycolic Acid, Propylene Glycol, Isopropyl Palmitate, Stearic Acid, Ammonium Hydroxide, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Isostearic Acid, Dimethicone, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, PEG-40, Stearate, Sorbitan Stearate, Sorbic Acid, BHT, Imidazolidinyl Urea
Known primarily for their well-formulated AHA products, Alpha Hydrox got an impressive image update recently. Although the improvements were more visual and packaging-related than formulary-driven, the fact remains that Alpha Hydrox has a formidable range of effective AHA products, all with definitively researched glycolic acid. Kudos to the company for continuing to be direct about the AHA content (and pH) of their exfoliants, something most other lines selling AHA products prefer to keep a mystery. Should the folks behind this brand choose to go back to the drawing board once again, they would do well to reconsider their current jar packaging if they intend to keep adding antioxidants and other beneficial ingredients to their efficacious but still predominantly basic products. Until then, you can rely on Alpha Hydrox for supplying AHA products that really work, and a few other surprises too, all affordably priced and readily available.

has anyone in here built this plan or see the finished house?
House Plan:CD 2770
thanks in advance
Thanks much, I did see the pics...
Those exterior photo's are why we are so hooked on the plan!
If someone has/is building the house here in the NW (like a builder), I would possibly be willing to drive and see it for myself (get a feel for rooms,e tc...which is hard for me to visualize spacing from a plan)
I would think this house would do well for builders of this price range. (Higher end specs)
We are going to be building it .....so "knock on wood", plenty of pictures to be seen in the future.
getting bids now...it looks too nice, every sub says "Wow" or "Awesome house'
we'd sure like to see your pictures when the home is complete. We'd even be interested in some of your current or past projects. If you're interested we can post them in our photo section. Just send in some pictures with a little description.
Hi, I am building this house in California. My husband and I are the GC (he does most the work.) We had to get the plan re-engineered for CA, so we made a couple changes. Every sub also said WOW, thats a nice house! We've been building since Oct. '05. Hopefully, we'll be in in a month in a half. (were crossing our fingers).
It sounds like everything is going great! That is a wonderful design you chose. Please send us some images once the home is done, we would love to see them.

In a little more than two weeks, the Bugatti Veyron will make its world premiere in Pebble Beach, California, where, in the framework of the "Concours d' Elegance", the series version of this super sports car will be presented to the public for the first time. The Veyron 16.4*) is now being prepared for its trip to the West Coast.
Pebble Beach is traditionally where selected Oldtimers and innovative automotive developments come together. In fact, during the third weekend in August, everything in the entire region around Monterey revolves around automobiles.
On August 15th, the "Concorso Italiano", this year on the green of the "Bayonet Black Horse" golf course in Carmel Valley, will attract thousands of fans hoping to get a glimpse of some of the great names in classic automobiles. Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. will also be represented there with one of the most successful race cars of all time, the Bugatti Type 35.
Saturday, the 16th, will be dedicated to historic race cars which will compete against one another in various classes on the race track in Laguna Seca. Of special interest, a number of races will be run consisting entirely of Bugatti oldtimers. This will also be the occasion of the world premiere of the Bugatti Veyron 16.4. Never before has the driving public had the opportunity to see this innovative high performance sports car up close. Those visiting the Laguna Seca race track are in for a very special experience.
As the most exceptional new development of the year, the Veyron 16.4 will also attract a lot of attention at the "Concours d' Elegance". Unlike the other automobiles at Pebble Beach, the Bugatti Veyron will be without competition, since the races will be limited exclusively to historic race cars. One of the high points during these races will doubtless be the appearance of one of the greatest automobiles ever built. For the first time in many years, a Bugatti Royale will take part in the "Concours d' Elegance".

The point of last spring's movie about this god-like being from the celestial realm of Asgard was that an arrogant but powerful man had to learn humility to become a true hero.
Thor doesn't need to be told twice, says Chris Hemsworth. In The Avengers, he returns as someone with a greater sense of responsibility for the world – or worlds – he inhabits.
"There's a maturity to the character because of the journey he went on, certainly. He was a petulant sort of kid at the beginning of Thor, and by the end of it hopefully you walk away thinking that he is matured and there was a grounded quality to him that wasn't there before," Hemsworth says.
One thing the character hasn't adjusted to is the culture and quirks of Earth life. He's still very much a weirdo.
"There are certainly moments where Thor says things and there's a sideways glance from everybody: 'What the hell is this guy talking about?'" Hemsworth laughs.
It helps to be surrounded by other outcasts.
"He's not quite the odd one out as much as he was in Thor," Hemsworth says. "These guys … one of them wears an iron suit, one of them turns into a big, green monster. They all have these crazy personalities, and alter egos. They're misfits, and that's how they fit, in a funny way."

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Dakota!
Facts about Dakota
- Breed: Beagle/Border Collie Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Dakota's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Meet Dakota. She is Geo's sister. Dakota is only 4 yrs old and is a Beagle mix. Dakota is super smart and knows all kinds of neat tricks. She will stand and turn, high five and even knows how to pray. Right now she prays for a forever home with her sister, Geo. The home they knew their whole lives left them at a vet's office, turning their worlds upside down. We are trying to home them together as that's all they have left. They both get along with other fur kids and are available through Hearts And Hounds Rescue.
Other Pets at Hearts and Hounds Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Dakota, a Schererville Beagle/Border Collie dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Beagle/Border Collie for sale in Schererville, or seeking a Beagle/Border Collie dog from a breeder in Schererville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Schererville already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Schererville breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Beagle/Border Collie breeders who help with Beagle/Border Collie rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Schererville paves the way for another one to be saved.
