Try a local lumberyard, not a big box. Or look for a "newel post" (the end or turning post of a stairway banister. Or take 1-bys and face glue them together to make a laminated post. |
Hardwood dealers often have large sections of various softwoods also. Look in the yellow pages under 'hardwoods' and start calling. Be prepared for the price. |

"For this sentencer, the only adequate response beyond a reasonable doubt, in light of the circumstances of this case, is a measure of justice in fair and equivalent proportion to the actions of the defendant. He should be sentenced to death."
But then, as the presiding judge, Parrish also had to note that, "as this is not the unanimous conclusion of the panel, by operation of law, he is sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole."
"We'll live with the decision," Peggy Luiszer said matter-of-factly outside the courtroom. "Eventually justice will be done. I can't imagine being 23 years old and living to die in jail. He's not going to make fifty years in prison."
Others were less circumspect. El Paso DA Jeanne Smith lashed out against Judge Frasher's decision, saying it demeaned the value of Jacine's life and her family's loss. "Lucas Salmon has been given the gift of life, a gift he took from Jacine Gielinski, a gift he does not deserve," she said.
Back in 1995, Smith (who would later say that her words criticizing Frasher "were said but taken out of context") had supported the idea of a single judge, the trial judge, being responsible for death-penalty decisions. Now she suggested that Frasher, a former public defender, was simply opposed to the death penalty. "We do have judges who do not believe in the death penalty," she said. "There is an obligation under the law for any judge who believes he could not in good conscience follow the law in a case to recuse himself."
Defense attorneys were quick to come to Frasher's support. Cleaver called Smith's accusations "outrageous." Phil Cherner, vice president of the Colorado Criminal Defense Bar, told the Rocky Mountain News: "The legislature has seen fit to give this awesome task to three-judge panels. I can't imagine a decision that would be more difficult. We have a trial, a lengthy sentencing hearing, the judges come up with a decision, and then some DA in the Springs pops off and says they don't understand why he didn't get the death penalty. That's what we pay judges to do. Sometimes, Miss DA, you're going to lose."
State Senate President Ray Powers, who represented El Paso County, said he would introduce a bill in the next legislative session to change the state's death-penalty system once again, to a system that would let the trial judge decide the sentence, as Powers initially had wanted back in 1995. Too many judges were philosophically opposed to the death penalty for the current plan to work, he said. "A lot of them were defense attorneys," he added. "The judge from Pueblo was a defense attorney, which made it hard for him, when he'd been arguing against it for years."
Defense attorney Dave Kaplan, a leading opponent of the death penalty, argued that Colorado's law should never have been changed in the first place. Powers's latest proposal "irritates me to no end," he said. "Who died and made him God? Justice should not be determined on the whims of a politician or on the whims of any individual."
If anything, the state should return to allowing twelve jurors to decide death-penalty cases, he said. Prosecutors "didn't like jurors deciding because they thought it was too awesome a decision for an average citizen to make," he added. "But guess what? Judges find it a pretty awesome decision also."
It was an expensive decision, too. That August, the state reported that so far, more than $2.5 million had been spent on prosecuting -- and defending -- Robert Riggan, Jacques Richardson, Danny Martinez, Francisco Martinez and Lucas Salmon, as well as several other defendants who'd never gotten as far as a death-penalty hearing, for one reason or another.
The impact wasn't just economic; resources were strained as well. When judges were appointed to death-penalty panels, their dockets had to be shifted to other judges for the duration of the panel.
Defense attorneys said they'd warned legislators that prosecutors eager to seek the death penalty would put more defendants before those three-judge panels, adding to the state's expenses. In turn, El Paso County DA Smith, who also served as president of the Colorado District Attorneys Council, blamed rising costs on defense attorneys, claiming they were trying to get rid of the death sentence by making death-penalty cases cost-prohibitive. When a man's life was at stake, defense attorneys countered, they had the moral responsibility to incur any cost necessary to make the state prove its case.
On June 30, 1998, William Lee "Cody" Neal went to a building-supply store, where he purchased, among other things, eyebolts, duct tape, rope and a seven-pound maul (half ax, half sledgehammer). He then returned to a townhouse on West Chenango Drive outside Morrison, where he'd lived since July 1996 with 44-year-old Rebecca Holberton.
A consummate liar, Neal, 42, who'd hinted to friends and acquaintances both that he was a bounty hunter and a hit man for the mob, owed Holberton, a divorcee who worked for US West, more than $70,000. Now she wanted the money back, she told friends, as a prelude for getting Neal out of her life. She was already renovating the townhouse, which had butcher paper taped over the windows and just plywood flooring in the living and dining rooms.

Kerry Vincent's cakes, to me, look like they should be in a museum, not at a special occasion.
Colette goes over the top also. Yet, they are quite eye popping!
Yes, there is great creativity in fondant, I agree with everyone on that. But lets not forget that before fondant EVERYTHING was done with buttercream! Fondant is, in my opinion, an easy way to a quick fix of gorgeous.
Maybe I'm just too much of a traditionalist, but I just wish buttercream would get the recognition it deserves. Which is, it takes mega, mega skill and patience to work with buttercream. Buttercream is to Michaelangelo or Boccaccio, as fondant is to Picasso or Chagall.

The Packaging
The front of the box is simple, yet eye catching to draw you in. There isn't a bunch of marketing thrown at you and you get a good view of the power supply itself.
Just when you think you're safe from the endless amounts of marketing, you notice that the front of the box flips up and then BAM! They hit you with everything they've got. At least it is useful information for those that are checking it out on a store shelf.
The back contains the rest of the pertinent information including output specifications, connector availability and cable length. The sides of the box only display Thermaltake and Toughpower logos.

Future of the 2013 New York Knicks
|The New York Knicks had their most successful season in over a decade. The Knicks roster was comprised of the NBA scoring leader Carmelo Anthony and the NBA 6th Man of the Year J.R. Smith! Despite Amar'e Stoudemire, Marcus Camby and Iman Shumpert missing huge chunks of the season due to injuries as well as almost every other player on the roster missing games throughout the season due to some type of injury (Kurt Thomas was injured toward the end of the season causing him to get released and Rasheed Wallace's injury caused him to retire) the Knicks were still able to flourish under Mike Woodson and ended up being the 2nd seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. This set them up for a 1st round battle with heated rivals the 7th seeded Boston Celtics. The Knicks jumped out to an impressive 3-0 series lead. Late in game 3 J.R. Smith threw an elbow at Jason Terry. Smith would be suspended for game 4, which the Knicks ended up losing, and would be mired in an awful shooting slump for the rest of the playoffs. The Knicks beat the Celtics in 6 and moved on to the second round for the first time in 13 years! In the 2nd round the Knicks were up against a tough Indiana Pacers team that were the #3 seed in the East. The Pacers proved to be bigger, stronger and better than the Knicks who ended up losing in 6 games.
"We are only going to get better" ~ Carmelo Anthony
But how will the Knicks get better? Some key players for the Knicks are free agents this summer. Will they be able to sign them back? 6th Man of the Year and a huge part to the Knicks regular season success J.R. Smith will be one of the free agents on the team. J.R. averaged a career high 18.1 points per game. Earl Smith III says he wants to be a New York Knick for the rest of his career and it might be a smart career decision since Head Coach Mike Woodson seems to bring the best out of J.R. Although he wants to stay with the team he most likely will be able to make a lot more money somewhere else. Due to lack of cap space the Knicks could only offer Smith a 4 year contract worth around anywhere from 20 – 24 million. I'm sure a lot of other teams will be going after the elusive scorer during the free agency period this summer but Smith's poor play in the Playoffs might scare some of them off which might in turn help the Knicks chances of signing him. J.R. is originally from New Jersey so if he signs back with the Knicks he'll be close to home and there's no better place to play in the NBA then Madison Square Garden! This should have became evident to J.R. when he checked in to game 5 of the Knicks / Pacers series and the crowd gave him a standing ovation despite him playing horrible and even admitting that the reason the Knicks were losing the series was because of him. New York loves J.R., J.R. loves New York. Hopefully they can get a deal done to bring him back. Earl Smith III is not the only free agent the Knicks have to worry about……….
Free Agents
Restricted – Chris Copeland, Pablo Prigioni
Unrestricted - Earl Barron, Kenyon Martin, Quentin Richardson, J.R. Smith
Under Contract w/ New York Knicks 2013 – 2014
Carmelo Anthony, Marcus Camby, Tyson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Jason Kidd, Steve Novak, Iman Shumpert, Amar'e Stoudemire, James White
Off-Season Needs
Center – Knicks need a good backup to relieve Chandler when he sits down. A healthy Marcus Camby could be able to help the Knicks at this spot. As seen in the Pacers series the bigger Centers in the league like Roy Hibbert were just too much for STAT and Kenyon Martin to handle. A big man that has a low post game would be nice. Many times throughout the season we saw the Knicks rely too much on jump shots coming from isolation. An offensive presence down low could help the team immensely.
Unrestricted Free Agent Centers that could help the Knicks – Zaza Pachulia (Atlanta Hawks), Andray Blatche (Brooklyn Nets), Nazr Mohammed (Chicago Bulls), Chirs Kaman (Dallas Mavericks), Jermaine O'Neal (Phoenix Suns), Josh Harrelson (No NBA team)
The Knicks don't have a lot of money to spend so if they do get a big man in free agency I'm not expecting them to spend a lot on him. Even some of these players might be asking for more money than the Knicks would be comfortable giving them. Injury concerns have been a problem for most of these guys in the past, for Blatche it was character and fitness issues in Washington but he played good for Brooklyn last season. The safest bet might be to bring back one of the former Knicks in Nazr Mohammed or Josh Harrellson. Any of the guys listed above could help the Knicks. Price will probably determine if the Knicks will have any interest in them. The cheaper the better.
Power Forward – Carmelo will most likely be starting at the Power Forward position next season. Going against the bigger Power Forwards in the league such as David West of the Indiana Pacers will be difficult for Melo so you need someone off the bench that could come in and drop Melo to the Small Forward spot for those type of scenarios. Most likely this will be the role of Amar'e Stoudemire. STAT did good when he was on the floor this season but unfortunately due to injuries that wasn't too many games. Since Stoudemire's injury prone the Knicks need a back up plan. Kenyon Martin did an excellent job in this role last season but he is an unrestricted free agent. If the Knicks could get him cheap they should bring him back if not they should look to try to get a similar type player on the market.
Unrestricted Free Agent Power Forwards that could help the Knicks - Josh McRoberts (Charlotte Bobcats), Marreese Speights (Cleveland Cavaliers), Elton Brand (Dallas Mavericks), Lamar Odom (Los Angeles Clippers), Earl Clark (Los Angeles Lakers)
Most of these players are also probably out of the Knicks price range but if they should at least see what their asking for. Odom and Clark are from around the area and Brand was born in the state. Who knows, that might allow the Knicks to get one of these guys at a bargain price.
Shooting Guard or Small Forward – The Knicks need offense. J.R. and Copeland are two of their better scorers and are both free agents. Copeland is a restricted and you would think he would be back with the team but then again that's what I thought about Jeremy Lin and Landry Fields last season. Both those players were given offers from other teams that were too high for the Knicks to match. This could happen again with Chris Copeland this off-season. Hopefully for the Knicks it doesn't. Copeland worked hard to get to the NBA and proved this season he could be a game changer. Knicks fans also don't want to part with J.R. but losing him is also a possibility so who else is out there that could score on the free agent market that would could be within the Knicks price range?
Unrestricted Free Agent Scorers that could help the Knicks – Nate Robinson (Chicago Bulls), O.J. Mayo (Dallas Mavericks), Nick Young (Philadelphia 76ers), Martell Webster (Washington Wizards), Leandro Barbosa (Washington Wizards), Chris Douglas-Roberts (No NBA team), Gary Forbes (No NBA team), Shawne Williams (No NBA team)
If everything works out and the Knicks re-sign both J.R. and Copeland then they won't have to look at anybody on the list. If Copeland ends up with another team I could see Webster, Williams or Douglas-Roberts doing a pretty good job of replacing him. If J.R. leaves O.J. Mayo would be the best replacement for him but he too might be out of the Knicks price range. How bout Nate Robinson? Once a Knick, Always a Knick? Felton and Kidd played a lot of the 2 guard position throughout the year, if Nate is signed back that would most likely be their permanent spot as Pablo and Nate would be guarding the Point Guards in what would be a small back court. Nate could come at a decent price and would be much needed offense for the Knicks if J.R. ends up on another team.
The Knicks also have the 24th pick in the 1st round of the NBA Draft as well as the options of making trades. With a sign and trade the Knicks would be able to be in the hunt for big time free agents such as Point Guard Chris Paul of the Los Angeles Clippers, Guards Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis of the Milwaukee Bucks, Manu Ginobili of the San Antonio Spurs or someone like Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks. Things would have to work out right for a big trade like that to happen which will be hard since the assets the Knicks have are the players that they really need going forward. A sign and trade to get one of these players would be really hard to complete but its not impossible. The Knicks are looking to get better and what they do this off-season could determine whether they are one of the elite teams in the league or not.

Billie Blair, president, opened the meeting with devotion and the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. Cox introduced and welcomed her guests from the Tennessee Division of Forestry to the meeting: Tom Hudlow, Tennessee Division of Forestry forester; Greg Thomas, Trent Waymire and Josh Dunn, from the Bradley County Forestry Office.
Hudlow presented a program on Smokey Bear and showed a DVD titled, "A Day in the Forest With Smokey Bear." The movie assists in engaging young people to conserve forests and outdoor areas by teaching Smokey Bear's five rules of fire prevention: Rule 1. Only you can prevent wildfires. Rule 2. Always be careful with fires. Rule 3. Never play with matches or lighters. Rule 4. Always watch your campfire. Rule 5. Make sure your campfire is completely out before leaving it.
Smokey's story began in 1950 when a small, badly burned cub was rescued by a forest ranger from a wildfire near Ruidoso, N.M. The ranger took the cub home, nursed it back to good health, and named it Smokey Bear. News of the rescue reached the National Forest Service Office in Washington, D.C. They asked the ranger if the cub could live in the National Zoo where he remained until his death. Smokey's message — "Only You Can Prevent Wildfires" — became the icon for the Forest Service.
Hudlow told the members that wildfires are caused by a number of reasons; including lightning, campfires, debris burning, arson, fireworks, equipment and people. The majority of wildfires are caused by people not following the proper safety fire techniques. He discussed burn permits which focus attention on the safe use of fires.
A burn permit is required for residents living in Bradley County from Oct. 15 through May 15 for debris burns. The permits are free and can be obtained by calling the Tennessee Department of Agriculture Forestry Division at 478-0337. They will provide the proper disposal method for what you want to burn.
The AGC Youth who participated in the Smokey Bear/Woodsy Owl Poster Contest in 2012 was presented a Certificate of Participation from Blair, as well as Smokey Bear pencils, rulers, bandana, the "True Story of Smokey Bear," and "Firewise" handouts for the adults. Cox also prepared an educational display board on Smokey, and highlighted some of the posters the youth had drawn. After the program, everyone was surprised and delighted with a visit from Smokey Bear and took pictures with the friendly black bear.
A brief business meeting was conducted by the president while enjoying refreshments. Thanks to the hostess was given by Cynthia Humes. Others in attendance were Barbara Brown, Sheryl Gash, Dorothy Keith, Margenia McKissic, Regenia Piersaul, Charlotte Scott, Lelia Ware, Jackie Westfield, Lillian Gaines, AnaBrazilian Ferreirai, Nicholas Wesley, C.J. Wesley, Alyana Wesley, Tatyana O'Neal and Christen Gaines.

Me to We has a social mission:To support the important work of their corporate partner Free the Children. Free the Children receives half of Me to We's annual net profit. Last year alone (2010) $1 million was donated to Free the Children in cash and in-kind services. Donations received from Me to We are used to lower Free the Children's already low administrative costs.
Me to We is a social enterprise: With offering goods and services, like sweatshop-free clothes, socially conscious media, environmentally friendly products, inspiring speakers, leadership training and life changing travel experiences, to people of all ages.
Me to We is a philosophy: 'Each of us can help to change the world through the daily choices we make.' By providing environmentally sustainable and socially conscious choices, Me to We helps individuals make a lifestyle shift to create a more just and humane world. Just some of the groups' impacts include:
- 208,037 gallons of water saved by printing on post-consumer waste recycled paper Over 90,000 trees planted to ensure environmental sustainability.

- Participants on Me to We trips served 145,000 volunteer hours.
For more information make your way over to the official website. http://metowe.com
Now that I have told you a little about the group and what THEY do to help Free the Children I would like to talk about my involvement in both groups. When I was in grade nine (in2007) I joined the Me to We group that was at my school. For that year and the following year our group did many different fundraisers (bake sales, book sales, bottle drives etc) to try and support both Free the Children as well as Me to We. After two years of fund raising, our school (along with many others were given the opportunity to travel to Vancouver and participate in 'We Day'. This was such an amazing day for our whole group; just being about to see all the other youth that were there and wanted to make a difference was enough for us to want to help, but then you get all those motivational speeches and you want to do all that you can to be apart of the change.

My mother LeAnne and myself finally ventured down to Kelowna to go dress shopping. Let me tell you, there are some really lovely dresses out there. We started at the mall. We went to Le Chateau and found a couple I really liked. They both happened to be blue. (in case you didn't know, my favorite colour is blue ) Every good shopper knows you can't just stop one place; so we made our way a little further in the mall and found an awesome little store called Maggie Mcflys. This shop has a very nice, caring, warm vibe to it. I looked through the dresses and fell in love with one right away. The gown was a little out of my budget so we talked to the manager and she said she could gladly help. So, after falling in love with the one dress, it was suggested that I check out a few bridal shops down town.
Once downtown we found a beautiful little shop called ten fashions; as soon as we entered we were greeted with a smile and someone willing to help. Again, looked through the dresses and found THE ONE! They had Many beautiful gown but this one was 'the one'. I fell in love with the dress as soon as I saw it. Oddly enough I had seen it in the other store but they only had it in a size 2 sizes too large so I was not interested. But today I found my pageant dress! Feel free to To go to their website or look them up on Facebook. xoxo
Till next time…

For the past 4 years I have taken the dance program offered at my high school. I love being able to just let lose and express myself without ever needing to say a word. Throughout the semester our teacher teaches different dances and at the end of the semester the 4 dance classes (that's almost 120 dancers) put on whats called a dance gala. This is where each class is given the opportunity to show what they learned throughout the year. It is also like a final exam for the course. This year in my grade 11/12 class we did four dances, African, Musical Theatre, Hip hop, and Jazz. I think I would have to say that my favorite one to dance and to watch was the African number. This number was very physically demanding but was worth it. This number along with our hip hop number got great reviews from parents and fellow spectators. This years dance gala was held the first week of June. We had 5 shows in 4 days. This is one of the many things I am going to miss about high school.
Till next time..

Armstrong. A very small, loving community in the North Okanagan. Armstrong is a place where you can walk down the streets and almost always be guaranteed to see at least one person you know. It is so small we don't even have a streetlight in town. Since moving here in 2005, I grew to love the scenery, people and things to do. For being such a small community there is quite a lot to do, just a few of my favourites being, going to the new out door swimming pool that was just completed last year, attending lacrosse and other sporting events in our newly built arena, as well as walking to the local farmers market.
The new arena was built about a year ago and was quite the upgrade from our previous one. Which is still used. Many activities happen at the Norval arena all year round, from public skating, hockey and figure skating to lacrosse and roller derby practices.
Just a few blocks away, the local farmers market runs every Saturday from April until October, locals bring their produce and crafts, such as eggs, baked goods, fruits, veggies, wood work, jewellery, and some weeks we even get singers and dancers performing. This is a great place to find good deals and meet friends (both new and old). http://www.facebook.com/pages/Armstrong-Farmers-Market/106348072744208
Armstrong is also a great place for children, young and old. You can bring your children to 1 of the 3 elementary school's playground, the playground in the park, the skate park (if they are a little older), or the swimming pool. Here your children can meet and make new friends very easily. Everyone in this town is very nice and excepting.
Every year at the end of summer Armstrong holds a very popular and LARGE country fair called the Interior Provencal Exhibition ( IPE ). There is fun for the whole family all week long. The IPE is a real old time country fair with livestock, midway rides, displays, exhibits, parade, a music stage, entertainment, CPRA wrangler tour finals (The Rodeo), and educational demonstrations every day. http://www.armstrongipe.com/
As well as being a caring community, Armstrong is also very 'artistic', we have 2 performing arts theatres, one being the Caravan Farm Theatre which is located just NW of Armstrong. This seasons performance is William Shakespeare's 'A mid Summer Nights Dream', which will run from July 19th to August 21st. The Caravan is one of a kind, in that all performances are held outside. (rain or shine) In the winter months a moving show is held, you ride in a horse and sleigh from scene to scene. The other is right in town; it's called the Asparagus theatre. We have had many different groups perform there; the most recent showing is the local middle schools 'Aladdin'.
Along with fine arts comes… well, just art. While in Armstrong you could visit our small museum and/or our art gallery. Armstrong Spallumcheen Museum and Arts Society was incorporated in 1974. Since that time, the organization has become the cornerstone of arts and heritage in Armstrong, preserving our community's history and supporting the arts. http://www.asmas.ca/
After visiting these great centres you may want to relax a little. Another great thing my small hometown has to offer is a few different choirs. Both youth and adult choirs gather and make lovely tunes and put on performances.
For those nature lovers out there, the Okanagan is a great place to be. We have the most beautiful scenery you will ever see. I am not just speaking in the spring summer months. There are many mountains around that in the summer you can hike and bike while in the winter you may ski or snowboard.
If you are ever in Armstrong and need legal aid, I know just the company for you. Blakely and company helped when I went out in search of sponsors. He is very community minded and has help other youth and community projects. (email:[email protected])
Lastly I would like to tell you about a lovely place my mother took me just after she adopted my younger brother and me. It is a look out located just outside of Vernon (30 minutes from Armstrong) on the old high way. Being the old highway not very many people use the road or know about this beautiful place. I love being able to just go up there look over Vernon and let loose, relax, and just think.

The only yellow that I have is 'La Luna', but the stems on yours are different. My La Luna hybrid has stems like a greggii or microphylla. Cameron |

Hi Cameron, Because of the red in the flower would be leaning towards it being salvia nubicola. |

Right -- I mentioned that my La Luna has different stems and ruled it out. |

Thanks for the insight. Alana |

I agree, looks just like my nubicola. Great name for the rooster! |
Difficult to say - probably looks more like nubicola but glutinosa can have quite a lot of maroon or brown striated on the flowers too. S nubicola has slightly smaller, darker, more ridged leaves, but if you haven't got the two to compare this may not help much! Have you got a photo showing the leaves? How sticky is it? S nubicola is sticky-ish, but S glutinosa, as you might expect, is very sticky to the touch, collects thistledown, small feathers etc on the inflorescence, and dry calyces will stick to you more readily than to the plant - any help? |
- Posted by poisondartfrog 7 (My Page) on Tue, Oct 7, 08 at 9:42
durcilla, you have hit upon precisely my dilemma. The leaves are quite sticky to the touch; juicy almost, but the striations have become more pronounced over time, suggesting nubicola. The calyxses are extremely sticky when I harvest the seeds, making it hard to transfer them from my hand to the collection bag suggesting glutinosa, but the bloom time seems to support an identification of nubicola. I will get a foliage picture today and post this evening. Thanks, Alana |
This sounds like glutinosa to me. If the colour is all striated, no areas of red or pink, that would support this too - it often gets nearer being a blotch on nubicola. Mine bloom at the same time so can't help you there. You're a few hours ahead of me so I'll look for your photo later but you may not get the response till tomorrow! |

OK, it's S nubicola! 100% certain, having seen the leaves and habit. But it sounds stickier than mine - maybe they vary from individual to individual. I've forgotten which zone you are but nubicola is the less hardy of the two & certainly dislikes wind while it still has its foliage (I've lost them due to that); but both are pretty tough. |

The stickiness in nubicola is caused by resins. As far as I know, glutinosa has no scent or resins, just a lot of hairs that can be velcro-like at times. Salvia darcyi has the worst case of velcro leaves I have experienced. |

Funnily enough I find the nubicola more hardy for me, this salvia has adapted to the tropics and is flowering now, glutinosa is the one that I have trouble keeping alive, new seeds have germinated and will try again:) |

This is not so strange to me, because I have had the same luck in North Carolina. I believe nubicola is from sunny slopes in the Himalayas. It even bloomed well during the summer for me. |

That would explain it than doing well for us being from a sunny slopes. My nubicola flowers of and on all year round here. |
My experience in a wet temperate climate is that S glutinosa is hardier. Both survive frost but S glutinosa will take any combination of frost, wind and rain (dying back more or less as necessary), whereas nubicola can be killed outright by strong cold winds and won't survive too much frost and wet in combination. As S glutinosa grows at lower altitudes in the Alps this is not too surprising - winter weather there can be foul. It presumably follows too that S nubicola would deal better with hot climates. As to the stickiness, it definitely is not a velcro effect with the S glutinosa I have grown - the sticky stuff comes off on your hands. Does everyone agree that the plant in the picture is S nubicola, or have I been growing them with the names reversed?? |
Haven't grown either for a while.....not my favourite Salvias....but I would think it is nubicola. |
- Posted by poisondartfrog 7 (My Page) on Wed, Oct 8, 08 at 18:29
rich_dufresne's comment regarding the lack of scent associated with glutinosa is helpful. My plants have a pungent, almost animalistic aroma that I find quite unpleasant. |
Both mine smell - similar but not the same. I like it! |
- Posted by poisondartfrog 7 (My Page) on Thu, Oct 9, 08 at 8:42
drusilla, I wish I liked it! It makes me think of urine; coyote or fox, maybe. S. nubicola seems to be the consensus. I suppose I will have to sow both of them again next season for comparison to be entirely comfortable that I have it right. S. greggii and S. farinacea have been perfectly hardy for me, but this is the first time I have grown either of these so I don't know if this one will still be here come spring. Thanks to everyone for your help! I enjoy reading the discussion. Alana |
This is interesting - the plant I have as S nubicola is definitely the same as yours, but it doesn't smell that strong at all. I do have lots of plants which have that sort of cat's pee (as I call it!) smell that you describe - flowering currant, Mexican orange etc - but no sages. Some are strong and disliked by other people but they all seem to me either fruity (like S microphylla) or sort of warm (like S officinalis, but often a lot stronger). Some of the desert types with a lot of volatile oils have a medicinal sort of smell (like S clevelandii). But we don't get much strong sun here and I reckon they smell different in different climates - much more powerful where it's hot. I have trouble overwintering S greggii, although it's always described as hardy, and S farinacea is treated as an annual in Britain. It occasionally comes through a very kind winter. I think the key here is wet - a huge number of salvias, even some of the thirsty ones (and including S uliginosa) die in our winters, because they are long and wet and although not (where I live) frosty, there is not enough warmth and sun for things to grow. I overwinter S uliginosa by keeping it pretty dry (and chucking water at it in summer)! |

AHMEDABAD: If you spot city cops rushing into by-lanes and chasing after dogs, don't be surprised. The Ranip police have launched a massive dog hunt after Member of Parliament Dr Kirit Solanki registered a complaint on Sunday about his missing doberman.
On Sunday, Ranip police were quite surprised to see the MP march into the police station. The usual exchange of niceties and formalities were over in a jiffy as Solanki got down to business and told the cops that his seven-year-old pet doberman had gone missing on September 23. This was a first for Ranip police and prim and proper the filed a missing person's report. The report highlights the dog's age, its strong built, black coat and stunted tail in detail. What's more, the cops also are armed with identification marks of the MP's dog - two golden spots on its forehead.
If the cops thought that registering the complaint would be the end of matter, they were proven wrong within hours. In the evening, the MP called up the police station and reported that his dog had been sighted near CG Road.
Cops from investigation wing of Ranip police, who usually work on hardened criminals and unsolved mysteries, got busy in the CG Road by-lanes. "We hunted for an hour but could not spot any dog even remotely resembling the doberman. We did find one that could have been mistaken for the MP's pet owing to its black colour but it turned out to be a street dog, that too with its tail intact," lamented a Ranip policeman.

We have a few trees we need to remove - any recommendations for the Ellicott City, MD area?
Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
NOT.. NOT ...NOT - Lample's Tree Service. We had an awful experience. A tree fell on our house and smashed both cars. They some of the work, left part of the tree and limbs everywhere and disappeared until their billing office called. (Over 3 months.) So again - NOT Lample's. I have heard good things about ArborMasters. |
I'm in Catonsville and can highly recommend Tip Top Tree & Stump Removal 410-925-8006. They removed two very old and very dead dogwoods and one large maple for me last year. One of the dead dogwoods was on the neighbor's property (but aimed at my house) and it was not more than a foot from another tree. The Maple was also crowded with other trees and the house nearby as well as electrical wires! Very tricky stuff. They did a great job for a verrryyy reasonable price, and clean-up was very well done too. No feet or debris hit the gardens! |

We've had three excellent experiences with Kirchner Tree Service in Ellicott City (410) 465-6019. This including removing a 100-year-old oak and a huge cherry, plus pruning a large and overgrown silver maple, all without any damage to other trees and shrubs nearby. Their cleanup was prompt and completely satisfactory. I would recommend them highly. |
I live in Elkridge, MD, and called a few places for a recent tree and stump removal job. The most helpful and friendly were Don from Tip Top Tree Removal and Kirchners, as mentioned above! I talked to people from Freestate and A&W Tree Removal also. I ended up going with Tip Top because of the good reviews on the web (there are others besides Cynthia). I probably could have shopped a better price, but was more interested in getting the job well done than saving a few bucks. Three men from Tip Top came and fell a tree near the house that was slightly leaning toward the house, but climbing it and cutting it down gradually. They were efficient, entertaining to watch, and very clean. Don ground the stump afterwards and offered some helpful advice about planting new trees, and had a brief look at some of the shrubs and trees I had around the premises. I would probably go with either them or Kirchners for a big job, and I'll probably need an arborist again since I am surrounded by woods on 3 sides of the property. I was quite pleased with the work Tip Top did and would recommend them for trusted, safe, and efficient work. |

175 Belden Street, City Island, Bronx
175 Belden Street, City Island, Bronx
175 Belden Street on City Island, BronxThe owner grew up in the gingerbread, gothic Victorian at 175 Belden Street on City Island, Bronx. Over the years, the cottage with the spectacular views of the Long Island Sound began to show its age. It needed a new, slate roof and repairs to the siding and wood trim.
The owners saved some of the amount needed to make the repairs, but a low-interest loan of $80,000 from the Conservancy's Historic Properties Fund made up the difference. Project architect Kaitsen Woo Design & Consulting and contractor Baschnagel Bros, Inc. brought the home back to its — and the owner's — youth.

Valentina Paloma Pinault
Young Valentina could be considered fashion royalty - not only does she have a superstar mother, but her father is one of the industry's heavyweights thanks to his role as chief executive and chairman of luxury group Kering (his father was the company's founder). Her parents are already fashion week stalwarts, so we can only expect Valentina to follow their lead.

Four Seasons Hotel Shanghai
Shanghai, 200041, China
Just a block south of Nanjing Road in the heart of downtown, this 37-floor luxury tower sits snuggled among similarly soaring office buildings. Its location, along with its proximity to the Shanghai Exhibition Centre and extensive conference facilities, means the hotel is big with conventioneers—but ordinary lovers of Four Seasons–style luxury will be just as comfortable here. The 422 guest rooms are airy and comfortable, though the room design is a little classically conservative, with dark wood antique repro furnishings, overstuffed armchairs and sofas, and rather minimal Chinese detailing (a few silk throw pillows here and there are about it). All have DVD players, Wi-Fi, iPod connections, and flat-screen TV's. The pleasant lobby lounge, with its large windows, high ceilings, and nightly live piano music, is one of the grandest in town.
Room to Book:
Pudong skyline is visible from level 15 upwards.
Insider Tip:
Female guests love the women-only concierge service, "Men Don't Get It" - name of the optional service available for women guests only.

I bought this vintage reproduction pattern on e-bay from Scottysbooks. It was sent by e-mail and doesn't show the name of the book, only the pattern. I'm wondering if anyone else has bought, made it and found some mistakes in it that they corrected. If so, can you tell me what they are. |

I bought this pattern. Everything was going along fine until I hit row 23. I don't have enough stitches to do all the repeats it wants me to do. If you can help me I would appreciate it. Thanks |
- Posted by formula894 (My Page) on Fri, Sep 7, 07 at 20:07
I think there is something wrong with this pattern. I got through row 33. But somewhere between rows 34-40 it's not turning out. I don't end up with 156 spaces at the end of row 40. I've redone those rows 4 times. I'm about ready to give up. |
