Fearrington is now starting to change gears for Spring, a few days of nice weather makes for a busy village, and I've taken my last trip away from The Fearrington House kitchen for a while. I recently returned home from a trip where it took a plane, train and car to get me to a small town outside Paris called "Tain L'Hermitage." This new town is where I went back to school for a bit. This was a great school, where everyone would like to go to, where I learned about chocolate. The theme... Full Post >

One dish I'm working on at the moment is a "double-roasted chicken noodle soup." I don't think many dishes come closer to comfort food than one with healing qualities -- maybe a grilled cheese! So, what does "double-roasted" mean? The "double-roasted" part of the soup is created when we combine a white chicken stock and equal amount of roasted chicken bones, giving the soup a beautiful color. The underlining ingredient in this dish is the noodle, and I am going to take it and run! In the... Full Post >
Why do I like Parsnips? Parsnips are an uncommon vegetable that are normally not well utilized. However, I really like the story behind them. I don't think there is another vegetable that requires the impact of a season to influence harvesting as much as a parsnip. They are used a lot in England, and remain in the ground until the first frost. The parsnip stays in the ground because after the freeze of the first frost, all the starches turn to sugar. A very versatile ingredient, parsnips can... Full Post >
One of my favorites on the Fall Menu at The Fearrington House -- the "Ham & Eggs" with pineapple dish. Not only do the ingredients come together well in the dish, but the combination brings back childhood memories of going to the pub with my parents. It is a classic English dish. I think our guests from the south will really enjoy it -- pulled pork with a little twist. Want more details on the new Fall Menu? See the menu here or sign up for our Food & Wine Newsletter for...

Pawpaws -- what can you do with this fruit? That is a good question! Fall menu planning is in full force and one of our flower ladies lights up a curve ball of a Pawpaw. All I know is that in its raw state it is the most nutritious fruit there is, and now it has entered the land of decadent ingredients. This will be on our fall menu, but in what format, who knows!

I always enjoy going home, however my most recent trip was special, not only did I get to see my parents, I had the opportunity to cook with chefs that I have followed and admired for many years. The trip began as I met my parents at the airport and we made the trip into London together.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 11
Posted By: Claire BlockerDate: Sunday, 26 September 1999, at 1:59 p.m.
In Response To: Re: Fruit & high triglycerides? (Jon (A+))
Thanks for the support. I have temporarily elimanted all fruit from my diet, except 2 to 3 different colored apples per week (with skins) for all of t he good reasons listed.


text: Consider doing your flowers yourself. I actually think that you might enjoy that more because you can put them the way you want. You can go to community colleges and see if they can order any flowers for you at their price. Colleges and florists get a tax break on those items. Community colleges will often times have floral classes so they will need to order flowers anyway. You will still have to pay for them but not as much as going to a florist. I would say that if your colors are choc and magenta you could do majenta flowers with some choc in there somewhere. The BMs could have magenta and white (if your gown is white). Making centerpieces yourself is also an option. My favorite is getting vases and putting colored water in them with a floating candle. You could do magenta color water with a floating candle and add some choclate candies around the bottom of the centerpieces. GL

[261] Prognostic Value of Multiple Triple-Negative Markers in Breast Cancer
S Lu, O Walter, P Vohra, D Kandil, LJ Wang, AM Mercurio, A Khan. Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown Univeristy, Providence, RI; University of Massachusetss Medical School, Worcester, MA; University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, RI
Background: Triple-negative (TN) tumors are a subset of breast cancer (BC) that lack estrogen and progesterone receptors and express low amounts of HER2. They have been found to be associated with a worse prognosis. We have previously reported four biomarkers including integrin β4, Sox9 (SRY box-9), IMP3 (IGF-II mRNA binding protein-3), and a cytoskeleton protein fascin that are significantly associated with TN BC and expression of basal cytokeratin CK5/6. Furthermore, while each of them shows a tendency towards worse prognosis the difference is not statistically significant. In this retrospective study we evaluated various combinations of these four TN markers in BC to see if expression of more than one marker together is associated with worse overall prognosis.
Design: The study group comprised of 189 cases of invasive ductal BC retrieved from the files over a 10-year period. Tumor characteristics including CK5/6, ER, PR, and HER2 status were obtained from pathology reports. IHC was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue using a rabbit PAb against Sox9, mouse MAbs against IMP3 and fascin, and a rat MAb against integrin β4. Overall survival data were available in 138 cases, of these 23% were TN. Statistical analysis was performed using JMP 8.0 (SAS Institute).
Results: All four markers are associated with TN status and a positive CK5/6 expression with statistical significance. Combination of these markers provides better predictions than any marker used alone. A total of 10 patients with quadruple positive BC had significant worse overall survival than the patients with BC not expressing at least one of these markers (P=0.0033, Kaplan-Meier log-rank test), so did 14 patients with Sox9, β4 and fascin triple positive BC (P=0.0052), and so did 17 patients with β4 and fascin double positive BC (P=0.0021). The proportional hazard analysis showed hazard ratios of 2.98 for double positivity of β4 and fascin (P=0.03).
Conclusions: Of the four markers we evaluated, combination of integrin β4 and fascin provides the best prediction for worse prognosis and is associated with the highest hazard ratio. Given their close locations within the cell, integrin [beta4] and fascin could work synergistically in the same molecular machinery or in the same pathway. TN BC is a heterogenous group and individual tumor could undergo different progression pathway.

Significance and Use
4.1 This practice permits an analyst to compare the performance of an instrument to the manufacturer's supplied performance specifications and to verify its suitability for continued routine use. It also provides generation of calibration monitoring data on a periodic basis, forming a base from which any changes in the performance of the instrument will be evident.
1. Scope
1.1 This practice covers the parameters of spectrophotometric performance that are critical for testing the adequacy of instrumentation for most routine tests and methods2 within the wavelength range of 200 to 700 nm and the absorbance range of 0 to 2. The recommended tests provide a measurement of the important parameters controlling results in spectrophotometric methods, but it is specifically not to be inferred that all factors in instrument performance are measured.
1.2 This practice may be used as a significant test of the performance of instruments for which the spectral bandwidth does not exceed 2 nm and for which the manufacturer's specifications for wavelength and absorbance accuracy do not exceed the performance tolerances employed here. This practice employs an illustrative tolerance of ±1 % relative for the error of the absorbance scale over the range of 0.2 to 2.0, and of ±1.0 nm for the error of the wavelength scale. A suggested maximum stray radiant power ratio of 4 × 10-4 yields <1 % absorbance bias at an absorbance of 2. These tolerances are chosen to be compatible with many chemical applications while comfortably exceeding the uncertainty of the certified values for the reference materials and typical manufacturer's specifications for error in the wavelength and absorbance scales of the instrument under test. The user is encouraged to develop and use tolerance values more appropriate to the requirements of the end use application. This procedure is designed to verify quantitative performance on an ongoing basis and to compare one instrument's performance with that of other similar units. Refer to Practice E275 to extensively evaluate the performance of an instrument.
1.3 This practice should be performed on a periodic basis, the frequency of which depends on the physical environment within which the instrumentation is used. Thus, units handled roughly or used under adverse conditions (exposed to dust, chemical vapors, vibrations, or combinations thereof) should be tested more frequently than those not exposed to such conditions. This practice should also be performed after any significant repairs are made on a unit, such as those involving the optics, detector, or radiant energy source.
1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

My senior honors thesis was titled "Toward Improving the Automated Classification of Metonymy in Text Corpora" (PDF with slides, or find in my papers database). Len Schubert, Mary Swift and Dan Gildea comprised my thesis committee.
I am originally from Niskayuna, NY, a suburb of Schenectady which is about 30 minutes north of Albany. I went to Niskayuna High School, where, in addition to my studies, I swam on the varsity team and played the viola for the Orchestra and Chamber Strings ensemble. Some highlights include beating our cross-town rivals in the section championships, winning the state championships and performing as a guest at an Empire State Youth Orchestra Playathon event. I got an opportunity to better my own skills and learn from professionals when, with my High School Orchestra, I performed with the Schenectady Symphony Orchestra.
At the University of Rochester, I was a member of the varsity swim and dive team throughout all four years. Over those four years I swam with a lot of great people and built some great bonds. As a team, we were able to win the Liberty League Championship two times, compete against some of the best D3 athletes in the nation while still having a lot of fun at the University Athletic Associaion (UAA) Championships (our primary, end-of-season championships).
Though I've used up my NCAA eligibility, I still can continue to compete (USA Master's Swimming). While I'll probably do that eventually, I'm taking time to do more unstructured training. I'm looking toward triathlons and trying to get more into running (probably long distance: half and full marathons) and biking. I'm also learning how to build bikes.

D.C. Council Adds Education Hearing
Breaking news from the John Wilson Building this morning: Council Chairman Vince Gray has added a seventh public hearing on Mayor Fenty's school takeover legislation. It will be Feb. 20 at 1 p.m., and open to the general public.
Today, school system officials and education experts are testifying in the second hearing, a week after Fenty led off the opening hearing by defending his 48-page plan. Before today's hearing began, Gray announced that 80 people already have signed up for the Feb. 7 hearing open to the public; he said no more may testify that day and added the seventh hearing.
In addition to these hearings, students and dropouts may testify Feb. 10; the council will hear testimony about Fenty's proposal to create a new school construction authority on Feb. 13; and Fenty will testify again Feb. 27.

Each week, we'll examine schools that could potentially join the ACC at some point if/when the conference decides that 14 isn't good enough. While it appears that conferences (ACC, and SEC soon) are content with 14 for now, any moves by conference cornerstone programs could cause even more shifting. With that in mind, we wanted to take a look at how each potential addition stacks up.
This week's resume: Cincinnati Bearcats
School: University of Cincinnati
Team nickname: Bearcats
Location: Cincinnati, Ohio
Current League: Big East
Year Established in FBS: 1885
Overall W-L: 559-554-51 (incl. all games)
National Titles: 0
Bowls: 12 (2 BCS)
The Good: While never consistently good at football, Cincinnati did play in the state of Ohio's first intercollegiate football game (versus Miami (OH), a rivalry that continues today). As has been the case with most ACC expansion nominees, the school's current Big East membership allows them to continue rivalries with Syracuse and Pittsburgh, as well as cultivate new ones with potential partner Notre Dame (perceived to be the only way Cincy would garner an invite).Of late, Cincinnati football has enjoyed the best run of success in program history, playing in seven bowls in the last 10 seasons, winning three of those. Taking home back-to-back Big East titles in 2008 and 2009, the Bearcats have also played in two BCS games, and finished the 2009 regular season undefeated.
The Bad: Though we'll avoid harping too much on the past, before 1997, Cincinnati had only appeared in three bowl games (in over 100 years of football). Their home field, Nippert Stadium, only sits 31,500 fans and is rarely full. Not only in competition with the NFL's Cincinnati Bengals, they also vie for fans with the University of Louisville — and seem to lose pretty resoundingly in a city that has been steadily shrinking in population over the past 30 years. Academically, the school is well outside the top 100 (number 143), another big factor in the ACC likely ignoring them. As mentioned above, the Bearcats only real shot as an expansion candidate lies in the conference possibly wanting another Midwest team to pair with Notre Dame. Also, in the two BCS games the team played in, they were thumped pretty resoundingly.
Our Vote: While it can be argued (successfully), that when looking at the past decade, Cincinnati actually brings the most football value of all the expansion candidates we've looked at so far, there's also not much else going for them. Plus, as we discussed several times already, they fail to fit in geographically unless Notre Dame is brought into the fold. Academics are another problem, since the ACC has taken such a strong stance to bring only the best institutions aboard. But if the other options (outlined in the links below) are all cut off — a real possibility — we could see the Bearcats added even in spite of all the negative factors weighing against them.

I recently purchased Mira's Kirshenbaum's new book "Everything Happens For A reason" and I found this book to be very inspiration and most beneficial. As a woman that has had much adversity in my life over these past few years, the author encouraged, that even through the worst of times, growth and peacefulness will emerge if we are open to trust in ourselves and the fact that everything does happen for a reason. As a mother that lost her only child 4 years ago to leukemia at the age of 10, I could not believe at the time, that any positives could ever come from one of the most devastating experience any parent could ever imagine. The truth is...they have....through my grief work I have grown in ways I never would have ever explored, had I not going through this experience I have had to endure. This book brought me a peacefullness in knowing that the twist and turns in our lifetime do have reason, that they help us to find true authenticity of self and to help direct us back on course... read more
I think this could be the best book I ever read. It made me feel so inspired!! It's so exciting -- that my life has meaning, everything that's ever happened to me, good and bad. I just love the idea that the universe is a safe, nurturing place for me, that the events of me life are all trying to help me become the real me. But there are also so many great stories, so this was not just inspiring but was a totally fun read. Do a favor for everyone you love and buy the a copy of this wonderful book. Just looking at the cover makes me happy!
When I'm given a book with a title like Everything Happens For a Reason, I sit up and take notice, as that statement has always been a part of my own belief system. Clients continue to fill my days with the very question "Why did this have to happen to me?", so a book with the subtitle of Finding the True Meaning of the Events in Our Lives was intriguing. The author, Mira Kirshenbaum, sounds like a sensitive psychotherapist and has written several other bestsellers with equally interesting titles: Too Good to Leave, Too Bad to Stay; The Gift of a Year; and Women & Love. In her new book, Kirshenbaum strives to bring meaning and comfort into everything that we experience, especially our tragedies. Not a small undertaking in my opinion.
Kirshenbaum's work represents years of statistical and (as she calls it) seat-of-the-pants analysis in which she strove to find patterns that would represent ten different universal meanings that would explain all the events in our lives... read more

It is official. The government has shut down and if it doesn't re-open soon, the Washington, D.C. real estate market is going to take a hit. While the shutdown is in effect, homebuyers across the country will see delays in loan approvals from the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and won't be able to retrieve tax return records from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In D.C., where most of the 800,000 furloughed employees live and work, the impact of the shutdown is likely to be more pronounced.

KATIE, a Carey Australian Shepherd/Beagle dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Australian Shepherd/Beagle for sale in Carey, or seeking a Australian Shepherd/Beagle dog from a breeder in Carey.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Carey 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 Carey 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 Australian Shepherd/Beagle breeders who help with Australian Shepherd/Beagle rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Carey paves the way for another one to be saved.

The two candidates for the state Senate District 16 seat are each focused on improving education, reducing unemployment and creating new jobs.
Republican candidate Mick Mulvaney, the first-term incumbent state District 45 House representative, and Democratic candidate Mandy Powers Norrell will square off in the Nov. 4 race. The winner will succeed Greg Gregory, the Lancaster Republican who has held the seat for 16 years. Gregory is not seeking re-election.
Lt. Tony Gainer is looking forward to educating Lancaster residents about fire safety.
As chairman of the 14th Annual Fire Safety Expo and a firefighter with the Lancaster Fire Department, Gainer will be one of several firefighters, police and rescue workers on hand to teach fire prevention and safety Saturday at the Wal-Mart parking lot on S.C. 9 Bypass. The expo attracted more than 3,000 people last year and Gainer hopes to exceed that number this year.
"It's getting bigger every year," Gainer said. "It's a big day to come and meet the people who serve the general public."
More than 100 years after Mark Twain's character Huckleberry Finn floated down the Mississippi River with runaway slave Jim, he faced trial at Indian Land High School.
English teacher Josh Bowers conducted the trial of Finn for crimes against the state of Missouri with members of his pre-advanced placement class serving as witnesses, attorneys, jury, court reporter and bailiff.
Mandy Powers Norrell, a Lancaster attorney and the Democratic candidate for the District 16 state Senate seat, presided as judge.
Lancaster High School sophomore defensive lineman Daniel Foster was the lone county player to earn honors at the weekly meeting of the Founders Federal Tri-County Football Coaches Association.Foster, in the Bruins' 30-0 Senior Night win over Nation Ford of Fort Mill, notched 14 tackles, a sack, a tackle for loss and a pressure passer."Daniel had a solid game for us and was a key reason for a shutout," LHS coach Bennie McMurray said. "Our defense has played well this season and we need them to continue that sound play.
A musical comedy exploring the mystery of romantic relationships premieres this weekend in Lancaster.
The production of "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change," sponsored by the Community Playhouse of Lancaster County, focuses on a variety of relationships, from first dates to married life. The play originally premiered last year as part of a fundrasier production and was received very well.
It has become unpopular these days to talk about family values and even more unpopular for politicians to take a stand for them. Rep. Mick Mulvaney has proven to be a proud social conservative as well a fiscal conservative. Mandy Powers Norrell is proud to be pro-abortion (even defending John Kerry's vote to keep potential partial birth abortion legal), openly opposed the marriage amendment (which passed S.C. by 80 percent) and is happy to grow a more intrusive government.
Chalk up a state title for Buford Middle School. What makes this honor so impressive is that it came when school wasn't in session – over the summer.
During the Buford Middle School students' down time over the 2008 summer break, they were cracking books and opening them to more than 1 million pages read.
Buford Middle School is this year's statewide winner of the No Book Left Unread summer reading contest.
The initiative began last year as a way to encourage recreational reading over the summer.
I learned a good bit last week about what's wrong with government.
First, I went to my opponent's 75-minute "education issues forum." I heard two sentences about education (my opponent likes charter schools, by the way). The other 74 minutes and 45 seconds were spent talking about some guy from New York who donated $50,000 to a House campaign in Landrum last spring.
Then, I got a bizarre e-mail falsely accusing me of "digging for dirt" on my opponents' 9-year-old son.
It was a wild week for Charlotte-based bank Wachovia.
The banking institution that has more than 3,300 locations in 21 states, including one on North Main Street in Lancaster, first made headlines early last week with the announcement that Citigroup would buy its operations.
That was until Friday, when San Francisco-based Wells Fargo & Co. presented Wachovia with an $15.1 billion offer to buy its operations without government assistance. Under Citigroup's $2.1 billion proposal, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., or FDIC, would have supervised the deal.
Mandy Powers Norrell's trip to career day at Heath Springs Elementary School last month has become a hot-button issue in the intense race for the District 16 state Senate seat.
Norrell, the Democrat seeking the seat, visited the school Sept. 12. She spoke with second-graders about the process of running for office, and answered questions as varied as who can vote and whether women could run for office.
The day went as scheduled, but it was what followed that has some people talking.

What is a UAV?
UAV stands for "Unmanned Aerial Vehicle". There are other terms for them such as multi-rotors, UAS (unmanned Aerial Systems), quad-copters, hexacopters, octocopters, and the most common name, a drone.
Why do you use UAV's for video production?
There are many different reasons why we use UAVS for video production. The main reason is cost. Getting aerial shots and jib shots used to require renting helicopters or very expensive cranes. Our use of UAV's helps bring the cost of production down while still delivering high production value.
Are you insured?
Yes we are insured for up to $1,000,000 liability. We take extreme care with saftey when flying multi-rotors and make sure that they are only flown in the right conditions.
Can you fly Indoors?
Flying indoors and in tight areas is one of the nicest things about UAV's. They are capable of being flown in tight spaces helicopters and planes are unable to access. This can be a huge consideration when capturing a view for a particular project.
Can we rent your equipment?
If your production requires aerial video we do not specifically rent out our equipment for you to use. We can provide you with an operator to come on site and shoot your required footage. We have hourly rates as well as day rates. Feel free to contact us to inquire more.
How high can you fly?
UAV's can be flown extremely high, about to the same level as traditional aircraft. To avoid interference with air traffic, UAV's may only be flown meeting strict criteria. Wind conditions can also pose a threat at these higher altitudes which is why we only fly certain levels.

This week marked the end of the canned food drive for the homeless. Thank you for all of your contributions. Some students even used their allowance to purchase additonal cans for our classroom. Our final total was 767! Some classes had fewer than 100 so we did very well. Unfortunately for us be fortunately for the homeless population there were classes over 1000 and in one case, over 2000!
Today was Cafeteria workers appreciation day. We worked as a class to create a large paper sunshine. Students decorated the bubble-letter names on each ray of sunshine. The messages read, "You are our sunshine!" Today visited the Cafeteria workers during their lunch break and seranaded them with the song, You Are My Sunshine.
Next Tuesday we will visit the media center for the Gingerbread Man story. It is a magical event. A little surprise is being prepared by elf, Mrs. Briggs.
Mrs. Majors of KSU, bids us farewell on Friday with the hope of returning to see the evening performance of Circus Circus.
We started learning about Africa. Students used Ashanti symbols to create patterns on their head scarves and hats. The Kente cloth tells a stroy so they also explained or wrote what their pattern means using words. Our hallway bulletin board will reflect this project.
Join us tomorrow evening between 6-8 pm at Z pizza. A portion of the sales will go to support our production of Circus Circus. Don't miss the fun and excitment! http://www.kerpoof.com/ I wish you a safe and happy Thanksgiving! When we return December will be right around the corner and the time seems to accelerate. I peppered the pages of this website with a few new photos from the feast so be sure to click around. There are also pictures on the Creek View home page. A special thank you to the Schercks for hosting Sparkle over the long weekend. On Tuesday I attended two technology workshops at the Georgia Educational Technology Conference at the World Congress Center. Both sessions filled me with many new ideas and ways to involve technology. There are so many free programs these days. Some are too advanced for kindergarten but they will soon be ready to explore programs like Scratch from Google which is like a free 3D design program easily downloadable to your computer and with many resources. I will cull through the extensive list of links I accumulated and add some to our student site. One big tip I have for anyone who like to collect great links is to use www.delicious.com . You can bookmark everything and access bookmarks from any computer. You can also share them. I also highly recommend getting a gmail account because Google has done an amazing job of integrating all kinds of valuable tools (FREE) into their gmail platform including Google Docs. Please feel free to ask questions. Another excellent Google tool is Picassa. Yes, it organizes photos and provides editing capabilities but it is integrated with Blogger so you can upload pictures easily, seamlessly to a family blog. I plan to switch the students to blogger in January because it enables image uploads to accompany posts. I'd like to include journal pictures with the posts. Another year another feast and an even better play! I want to thank each of the parents who attended the feast and then came down to the classroom for our little performance. If you missed the event you can view it online. I just posted the PhotoStory on my kinderteacher podcast site so it should be available for viewing by Friday. It is nearly 7 minutes long so give it several minutes to load before watching and you will avoid the starting and stopping that can happen while streaming. Mrs. Foresman received an unexpected call to report to the front office just before lunch today. It cast an air of mystery over the class. Why did they call her, what's wrong? Is she coming back? Kindergarteners are never short on questions. We proceeded to lunch on the usual path but just before entering the cafeteria a very animated Mrs. Foresman rushed up to share the good news. A special visitor had arrived. Secretly, Mrs. Foresman had ordered a 'class fish' for the Creek View aquarium! She wanted to surprise us and indeed she did. The students were absolutely delighted. Mr. Trussell looked on as Ned the Fish Guy prepared to release the new recruit. He's just a little fellow, but very beautiful. We will be naming him shortly. He is a Royal Gramma, a hearty coral reef fish. Please be sure to look for him next time you're in the school. Pictures can be found on the Kids Home page or here. Special thanks to Mrs. Bard who not only volunteers to aide students academically but who also offered to clip our Sparkle's toenails! She is a Veterinarian and naturally animals love her. Our Feast time has been scheduled. It is 10:45 - 11:25. There will be 4 classes enetering the cafeteria before we do so plan to be a few minutes early. We are learning many things about the Pilgrims and Native Americans. |

Wholesale Goods: What's in it for Your Business?
Whatever the size and shape of your retail business, adding wholesale flea market goods to your shelves makes perfect sense from a business perspective. Unfortunately, many business owners don't realize that they don't need big, expensive products on their shelves to make money; flea market supplies are priced low to sell in large volumes and keep your margin high.
If you're still not convinced, just take a look at the market; though the economy in the United States is still struggling, the market for wholesale goods is continually growing. There are likely two main reasons for this upward trend:
· More people are looking for deals. Better deals. We're seeing a trend, not only financially but also socially, in that the average consumer is spending less and is looking for better deals. Fortunately, wholesale flea market products and packages can provide that.
· On the business end, many consumers are now becoming entrepreneurs, as the need for additional sources of income increases. Starting a small business with low-priced, high-quality flea market goods as your start-up products can be a low-risk way to make a living.
With these trends in mind, it makes sense that more and more business owners are rushing to stock their shelves with wholesale flea market supplies. The benefits are numerous, and many types of retail businesses have consistently been enjoying these benefits, which include increased sales and higher margins.
Low Prices Mean High Margins
It goes without saying that businesses such as flea market vendors can benefit from our flea market products and prices. Flea market shoppers want lots of products for low prices. Our suggested retail prices may seem low, but these are the numbers at which our flea market merchandise typically sells in larger volumes. And these large sales volumes keep your margin high.
Reasonable Minimum Order Counts
Whether you're a large or a small business vendor, you need to restock your flea market supplies frequently. It helps to have the option of more reasonable minimum order quantities., so that you're only restocking the wholesale goods you need, without having to order obscene amounts every time. Unfortunately, many other flea market goods vendors don't offer the same flexibility.
One type of business, especially, that can benefit from low minimum order counts are the smaller "mom and pop" stores. These types of shops are owned and operated in just one location, and many take the form of general merchandise stores (like your old-fashioned general stores). Mom and pop stores often can't afford to pay for the overly-large minimum order quantities that many other wholesale goods providers require.
Product Variety
Having a variety of products available to your customers is essential. And fortunately, you have the option to purchase a variety of flea market supplies without breaking the bank. When variety is your main concern, our wholesale flea market items are the perfect solution; you have many product categories to choose from, and there are many product types within each category.
For those small chain retailers that are just opening up shop, having access to a variety of flea market supplies at a price a small retailer can afford may be difficult to find. Starter packages are a great way to stock your shop in those beginning stages. A good starter package should include a variety of wholesale goods, so that your shop looks well-stocked and established. These items should also be low-cost and low-maintenance, making it easier on a business owner who's just starting out.
Items are Proven to Sell
For businesses like online auction sellers, it's great to have a supply of wholesale flea market merchandise stocking the virtual shelves. Auction sites are all about getting lots of people to bid and buy, so you need items that people actually want, so that you can bring in extra money when those big ticket items aren't moving. Our flea market items are tested and proven to be good sellers, and it's great to be able to fall back on those extra item sales.
Excellent Customer Service
Vendors large and small can certainly appreciate the value of good customer service. When you're dealing with any kind of bulk flea market items and purchases, it can be difficult to work with customer service representatives when there's the issue of language barriers and cultural differences. Many suppliers of flea market products force you to deal with overseas customer service representatives. With Wholesale Flea Market Products, though our products are shipped from factories in Asia, all of our customer service is handled in the U.S. This prevents mistakes in orders, and makes it easier to resolve issues that do arise.
Wholesale Goods are Good for Business
So what's in it for your business? Between the upward market trend in wholesale-priced sales, the increasing numbers of new retail business owners, and the undeniable benefits, making flea market merchandise available to your customers just makes a lot of business sense. Wholesale Flea Market Products offers high-quality products and packages at great prices for retail businesses in all stages of development, so if you haven't crunched the numbers yet, you might be surprised to learn just how good wholesale goods can be for your retail business.

I stumbled upon this product at the store and it kinda ended up in my basked without thinking too much about it. I was actually looking for one more product to reach the amount required to get a GWP-product. I actually needed a good mask though since I had finished my old Biotherm one so it ended up being a very good purchase. I have to say that the cheaper Vitamin E Sink-In Moisture Mask does a very good job. I use this everyday because my skin is very dry, especially now in the winter. It does a fantastic job hydrating the skin. I apply it all over my face after showering, before going to bed and when I wake up my skin is soft and smooth. It absorbs quickly into the skin, I never have to tissue off any residue. I don't have sensitive skin. I use this everyday and have never experienced any negative skin reaction whatsoever. But then again we're all different.
I will definitely repurchase this. It's a great moisturizing mask for a very affordable price. I also like the Vitamin E range scent. continued >>

EDIT: The ingredient that may be irritating people and what had initially irritated me was rosehips. It appears that the product had settled because now I can use this on my face without the burning I had experienced previously.
I had heard good things about this mask and I generally love the Body Shop's products because they're very good on my skin. I've never had a problem with the Vitamin E line before, and because I have very dry skin. After reading a few reviews, I have two observations:
1) If you have dry skin, this product will sink-in like it says, but it may (weirdly) burn your skin. I don't consider myself to have very sensitive skin, but this was just downright odd and uncomfortable. However! I did notice that this mask makes an exceptional skin cream for other parts of my body, and so it's not a total waste. It seems as though the burning only happens on my face.
2) If you have normal-oily skin, this product is probably not for you.
More reviews by mariavittoria1987
Let me start off by saying I rarely have bad reactions to skincare products. After applying this mask for the first time, in a few seconds my skin started stinging very bad, so I immediately washed it off, to see my face completely RED in the areas where I applied the mask. It took a few hours for the burning and itchy sensation to go away. I immediately checked for the composition of the product and that's where I started learning about harmful chemical ingredients etc. and decided to switch to organic skincare (which made me really happy). Needless to say I threw this mask in the bin and never bought another Body Shop product again.
this mask is super soothing, and comfortable to use. just slather it on and wait. the mask gets sucked into the skin immediately! just tissue off the residue (slightly oily) and voila! skin is instantly hydrated. The prob is, this effect isnt long lasting, and I find that i need to use it everyday for good hydrated skin. worth a try, one of the few hydration masks i;ve tried that works.
Tried this in store on my hand and it made my skin super smooth so I decided to buy it and try at home. I washed my face and began to put it on, I put a thin layer on my face and indeed it does sink in a bit, it did sting a little but not to the point where it definitely had to come off because it was hurtful. After 10 mins I wiped off using a cotton ball, yes my skin was smooth and hydrated but it also left a greasy feeling.
Unhappy that I spent £10 on this small tub I was willing to try it again after a few days, this time I took a small dish put some of the product in it and mixed it up with a tablespoon of water thinking perhaps the product was a bit too concentrated. Did the same routine, got the same results with no stinging and hardly any greasy leftovers. So guys if you brought this and experienced the same as me on first try, try adding water to the mix, try different quantities of water until you're happy. This is only for those that already brought it and want to make good use of it.
To those that haven't brought it yet try something else to avoid the hassle.

More reviews by valentineshigh
i personally really like this product. its affordable and in my opinion it does a great job of hydrating skin. i apply maybe one finger dip's worth all over my face, maybe a little more on my neck. if the product has completely absorbed into my skin after the 10 minutes then i'll just apply a moisturiser on top. however if after 10 minutes theres still some residue, i tissue it off because it means my skin has already absorbed all the moisture it needs.
i did find that if i used this on an everyday basis i would break out, so this is best used as an SOS treatment or as a weekly treat in winter. i like the smell of the whole vitamin e range from the body shop so the fragrance wasnt a problem. i think considering you only need a small amount to do the trick each time, its definitely a great buy.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was on the fence about this product - it is rather weird looking, smelling and then does seem to make a layer of grease on your face. And then if you use it more than once a week it does make you break out - but I was holding out hope that it could be a good summertime moisturizer, when you need that extra boost of ooze. But that was before reading about the eye vein deal. No products are worth the risk of translucent under eye areas with bulging veins. I'm throwing it out immediately, before any latent pulsating veins put out a taproot.
I don't have sensitive skin despite being a retin A user and this mask looks kind of bland with a texture of cheap strawberry yoghurt so I was really surprised that it tingled the first time I used it. However I did get a nice glow afterwards and thought - well at least something in it is actually doing something. The second time the tingling was more intense and 24 hours later I still have a lot of redness under my eyes. I can't work out what in the ingredients is causing this but have relegated the mask to my feet - at this time of year I have to nuture my feet to get them ready for sandal exposure and I figure my tough as boots foot skin can handle this mask.
when I read christinakings review of this (where she said about the vein under her eye showing up) I thought she was overexaggerating - but I tried this and the exact same thing happened, it seemed to make the skin around my eyes kind of transparent.
It did make the rest of my skin softer - but the vein thing scared me off. I won't be using this again. I might try and take it back although I don't know what their returns policy is like.
The lid of the pot didn't screw on properly too - but I have other masks of theirs which are fine so I guess it must just be that particular one :(

Today, we will be looking at a second offering from iBUYPOWER. We have in the lab the iBUYPOWER Revolt, a small form-factor gaming desktop that has been engineered and built from the ground up by the engineers at iBUYPOWER.
The iBUYPOWER Revolt was first introduced to the world earlier this year at CES 2013. It features a custom motherboard inside a custom plastic case. Of course, we can't have a custom case without some cool lighting, and iBUYPOWER doesn't let us down in this regard, either.
Please note that PCMark 7 has been updated to the latest version, causing previous benchmark results to not be comparable. We have archived these results. Unfortunately, this means that we have no comparison systems for the PCMark 7 benchmark during this review.
Without further ado, let's dive into the meat of this review and see what the Revolt is made of - literally.

The five best concerts this week: December 3-7
Aaron Thackeray The Sword (seen here at 2011's Westword Music Showcase), due at the Bluebird on Tuesday night, is one of the five best concerts this week.
Good morning, y'all! And oh what a joyously good morning it is, eh? Is it just us, or is the sun shining a little brighter today? With the Broncos clinching the AFC West division yesterday here at home on an unseasonably agreeable day at Invesco, well, it just feels like one of those green-lights-all-the-way type of days, doesn't it? Not into sports? Could care less about the Broncos? Not to worry, still plenty of reason to smile, as things are equally as prosperous on the musical front. Another a great slate of music on tap this week. Check out the full concert calender to get a broader view, or keep reading to see which shows we've deemed the five best concerts of the week.

Kreayshawn (aka Natassia Zolot) got a video camera at age ten and started making and editing her own videos for several years before formally trying her hand at music. Although she's a high school dropout, Kreayshawn landed a scholarship to study film at the Berkeley Digital Film Institute. During that time, she started making videos for artists based in and around San Francisco, including Lil B. In 2010, Kreayshawn began releasing her music to a wider audience, and her second single, the ultra-catchy "Gucci Gucci" became a surprise hit that spring. For her 2012 debut full-length, Somethin 'Bout Kreay, she brought in collaborators such as Kid Cudi and Diplo. She's become a subject of some controversy for her lyrics and cultural appropriation, imagined and otherwise, but Kreayshawn's rhymes are, at worst, playfully raunchy.
Not much has changed about NOFX in the past twenty years -- including Fat Mike's unmistakable whiny voice. Still kicking out California-style pop punk with a hearty political bent (and a little more oomph than many of their counterparts), these guys have managed to tour and release records successfully while giving the finger to the media, becoming increasingly political and not changing their style. Catering to teenagers while in their forties may seem like an anomaly, but Fat Mike and company are still selling out shows every time they tour. It's possible that the whole reason the act has managed to stick around for so long is that it never fell into the trap of taking itself too seriously.

Mobile phone maker Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB isn't talking to PalmSource Inc. about using its operating system for Sony Ericsson's smart phones, spokesman Peter Bodor said. Mr. Bodor was reacting to comments made by David Nagel, chief executive of PalmSource. In an interview with Dow Jones Newswires, Mr. Nagel said the company plans to extend its cooperation with mobile phone makers and has had ongoing talks with Sony Ericsson. Mr. Nagel said his goal is to get PalmSource - which is on the verge of being spun off from parent company Palm Inc. - into the number two position in Europe, where Symbian is the leader. (Reuters)

Aira Force and Ullswater
This section of the page features an image gallery, so if you're using a screen reader you may wish to jump to the main content.
A tranquil haven of towering peaks, serene waters and undulating hills
Ullswater valley is truly breathtaking, with its beautiful lake nestled amongst towering fells. The epic scenery and relative underdevelopment compared to other areas of the Lake District gives Ullswater a secluded and tranquil feel.
Aira Force, a tumbling waterfall drops an impressive 65ft and can be reached by an enchanting stroll through ancient woodland and landscaped glades. The perfect place for a family walk and picnic.
There's plenty to do, walkers are spoiled for choice with relaxed lakeside strolls and challenging ascents to lofty mountain summits offering glorious views. Watersports enthusiasts will not be disappointed either, there's plenty of opportunity for fun and adventure on the water including canoeing, sailing, fishing and even swimming for the more intrepid explorers among you.
Look out!
One stormy night, about two years ago, a tree fell at Aira Force causing a great landslide and taking part of the path to the falls with it.
Now, thanks to generous donations to the Lake District Appeal, we have re-instated the path complete with a brand new lookout platform. Come and see it for yourself.

text: Washington DC, January 15, 2010—Developing countries are improving how well they move goods across borders, although they still lag behind richer countries, according to a new World Bank report ranking countries by trade logistics performance. They need to do more to boost economic recovery. Moving goods efficiently from manufacturers to consumers depends on roads, rail, ports, customs and other border agencies, as well as the efficiency of neighbors. That holds especially true for landlocked countries. Developing countries can put in place reforms to make supply chains faster, cheaper and more reliable.

PS3 Hack Streams Games to PS Vita: Please Sony, Just Make This Official
Remote Play – a feature that allows wireless access to the PS3 via a PSP or PS Vita – has yet to take off and is only compatible with a handful of PS3 games. We've already seen one man make a custom device that does just that with any PS3 game. Now a YouTuber has uploaded video showing a PS Vita streaming PS3 games from a jailbroken PS3.
The videos were uploaded by YouTuber homer49. In the video below he demos the hack using Battlefield 3. One neat feature of the hack is that lets the user map the L2, R2, L3 and R3 buttons to the rear touch panels. That's great news because it means all controls are accounted for – something that wasn't possible with the PSP – making an official version of this feature much more possible.
That said, homer49 says that you can't access a PS3 game's online features when streaming to the PS Vita. There is also a very noticeable lag between button presses. Combine the two and this hack is all but pointless for a huge number of games. Then again, this is an unofficial implementation. Who knows what Sony and video game developers could come up with if they set their minds to it.
In the video below, homer49 explains how the hack works. Unfortunately it's in Spanish so I can't tell you exactly what he said – and that annoying creaking sound in the background doesn't help – but he did say in the description that it requires the custom firmware version 3.55 or 3.41 for the PS3 and a jailbreak program called Multiman. You'll then have to register the PS Vita on the PS3 as a mobile phone in order to connect it.
I am really hoping that Sony would release an official version of this hack, but there are a number of reasons why they might not do it. Aside from the lag, functionality and power management issues, there's the issue of cannibalization. If this feature was made official some gamers might opt not to buy PS Vita games and use the handheld primarily to stream from the PS3 instead. Why buy NBA 2K13 for the PS Vita if you can stream the console version?
On the other hand, if the PS Vita had a feature like this when it launched, I'm sure it would be flying off the shelves for years. Skyrim on the toilet? Shut up and take my money! Then when the PS Vita games arrive some of those who bought the handheld for streaming will still end up buying those games. Assuming they're worth buying of course. I also doubt this feature would work via 3G – homer49 was streaming via Wi-Fi and the lag was still there – so it's not like gamers can stream games all the time. That's another reason to buy PS Vita games.
You can speculate with me in the comments, or head to homer49's channel for more videos of the hack in action.

Comments (11):
What SHOULD happen is that this is made official. What will actually happen is that this guy will get sued by Sony for hacking into THEIR property and he will not be legally allowed in the same room as a PS3 for the rest of his life. It is part of their "Shoot ourselves in the foot" policy.
THEIR property? I don't think he stole them.
Errr why u wanna stream and play it on the vita ? when u can play it on the ps3 w/ bigger tv screen ?
x3x ask my girlfriend who wants to use that TV .
Exactly,i agree, Spot on!!!
This is it! If it's possible then I definitely buy PS Vita.
"Skyrim on the toilet" is my dream! :D -
Sony wont release the feature to all games like it says above there will be no sales of actual vita games if they did leaving them at a loss.However if they did i wont be surprised if the actual ps3 game prices shoot up to compansate
now that sounds like a plan you want to stream ps3 games off the vita so pay more for the ps3 games just 10 more bucks on top of 60 or 70 for those of you who like the special addition games will be fucked lol pay up to play up
I can see the appeal of smashing in a 30-yard screamer in FIFA Football whilst sat on the loo! It would certainly pass the time in a much less mundane manner! COD: Modern Warfare 3 in the garden with a cold beer next to me? I think I could handle that!
I came across this site whilst searching for PS Vita games. I also came this useful website:
It let's you price compare PS Vita games and consoles quickly and easily. Saved myself a load of time and money using it to purchase my PS Vita (3G version) for about £200 a month back. It might be worth a look for you too.

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo., June 15, 2001 - The Reading Recovery Council of North America (RRCNA) recently presented Missouri educator Jeanine Larson Dobbins with its Teacher Leader Award for her leadership and work on behalf of first-graders in Missouri who have difficulty learning how to read. Dobbins is one of two recipients in North America this year.
The Reading Recovery program encompasses more than 19,000 Reading Recovery educators in the United States and thousands more who are advocates for the program in North America.
This international award comes on the heels of a statewide literacy education award named for Dobbins in March.
"I am very humbled and deeply honored to receive this North American award," Dobbins said. "This award highlights and honors not only my efforts, but also those of Southeast Missouri State University, the State of Missouri and many, many Reading Recovery professionals, whose leadership in literacy education have made our success possible. I share this award with all of them."
Reading Recovery is a highly-effective, short-term intervention of one-on-one tutoring for first-graders having trouble learning to read and write. Individual students receive a half-hour lesson each school day for 12 to 20 weeks with a specially trained Reading Recovery teacher. Nearly 80 percent of students who complete the full series of lessons can read and write within the average range of performance of their class.
Dobbins works as coordinator of the Missouri Statewide Early Literacy Intervention Program (MSELP) administered through Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Mo. Thanks to Dobbins' advocacy, tens of thousands of Missouri youngsters have received Reading Recovery lessons and early literacy programs in recent years. In 1997, Dobbins contacted key legislators and the late Gov. Mel Carnahan about the importance of early intervention to prevent reading difficulties. Convinced of the importance of the message, the Missouri budget has provided $1.75 million for early literacy programs in the past four years. These monies were used for professional education of Reading Recovery teacher leaders, teachers, and teachers for small literacy group instruction. In Missouri today, 36 percent of school districts offer Reading Recovery one-to-one instruction for lowest performing first-graders.
Dr. Dan Steska, superintendent of Cape Girardeau Public Schools, endorsed the award for Dobbins.
"I can think of no one who has had the long-term and widespread influence that Jeanine Dobbins has in assuring that every child has the opportunity to benefit from a quality reading instruction program. She literally created a safety net for success for these children throughout our area."
The teacher leader awards are
presented annually to persons who have made "extraordinary contributions
to advance Reading Recovery beyond the local level." The award was presented
at the Reading Recovery Teacher Leader Institute held in San Diego June
6-9. The RRCNA vision is that all children will be proficient readers and
writers by the end of first grade. Tammy Crouse, Reading Recovery teacher
leader in Poplar Bluff, Mo., nominated Dobbins for the award.

Colorado Rockies first baseman Todd Helton arrested on DUI and careless driving charges in Thornton
911 caller reported pickup driving erratically
THORNTON, Colo. - Colorado Rockies first baseman Todd Helton says he is "very sorry and embarrassed" about his arrest Wednesday morning on charges of driving under the influence of alcohol and careless driving.
Police said a witness called 911 at 2:08 a.m. and reported someone driving a black Ford F-150 truck erratically on Colorado Boulevard in Thornton. Helton pulled into a Conoco gas station and that's where police made the arrest.
"Last evening, I exercised poor judgment and was charged with drinking and driving after driving to a gas station near my house," said Helton. "I am very sorry and embarrassed by my actions. I hold myself to a high standard and take my responsibility as a public figure very seriously. My entire career I have worked to set a positive example for my family and in our community and I fell far short of this standard."
Helton is asking for forgiveness.
"I sincerely ask my family, the Colorado Rockies Organization, Major League Baseball and the community to accept my apology," Helton said. "I make no excuses and accept full responsibility for my actions. I humbly ask your forgiveness."
"We were extremely disappointed to learn that Todd was arrested this morning," the Rockies said in a statement sent to 7NEWS. "This type of behavior is taken very seriously by our organization. We know that he clearly understands the seriousness of his poor decision, the harm that could have been inflicted on others and the embarrassment his mistake has caused to himself, his family, the Colorado Rockies organization and to Major League Baseball."
"Todd is taking full accountability for his actions with his family, his fans and the organization," the statement said. "Todd clearly understands the severity of the situation."
Helton has played for the Rockies since 1997.
Last year, his season ended in August when he underwent hip surgery to repair a torn labrum.
The Rockies website reported last month that the team was hoping he would return this season and that the team was nudging Helton in that direction.
The website reported that Helton said his goal was to be ready for the start of the regular season.

Don't reach for your registration when you get pulled over
It's a regular part of Officer Keith Noble's job. Patrolling the streets, pulling over anyone that's breaking the law. But before Officer Noble can even point out what the driver did wrong, he says almost every driver already broke a different rule. A KEPR reporter and a Kennewick Police officer gave it a try and pulled a truck over.
Reporter: "What are you expecting him to do?"
Officer Noble: "Pull over in a safe spot such as this parking lot, it's perfect cause we're on a busy street and when I walk up there, just have their hands on the steering wheel and not reach for anything until I tell them to do so."
James Bowden knew to pull to the right into a non-crowded area. He also knew to turn is car off. But what he didn't know, is that he should sit put, with his hands on the wheel, until Officer Noble tells him otherwise.
"I went for my license and registration," saidBowden.
Officer Noble says James is not alone.
"They're reaching, in their glove box, behind their seat, under their seat, even though they're just grabbing for their wallet, as us officers, we don't know if they're grabbing a weapon or hiding something from us," said Officer Noble.
He says it's a good to remind people of what to do at a traffic stop around this time as patrols increase for the summer months, especially at night time. James was glad to learn this.
"It's good information, I mean, you don't wanna do something that's gonna cause some trouble for ya," said Bowden.
"When you see that, you start taking a little more extra precautions, taking your time getting up there, surveying everything," said Officer Noble.
If you ever get pulled over by an under cover cop and aren't sure if they are an imposter, feel free to ask for ID and their badge. You can also call dispatch to verify it's a legitimate traffic stop.

text: In our old apartment, the internet worked fine through our wireless router to our laptops. There were no problems and it ran great. At our new apartment, we are in a very similar type of set up as far as internet goes (the internet is provided free with rent just like it was at the last apartment, and I think it's a Cable connection with multiple ethernet cables coming from the modem and one being wired into each apartment in the building, to a slot in the wall just like a phone jack) Anyway, when we first got here the internet slot in the wall didn't work at all, so I looked at how the wires were set up in the cables down on the modem and re-wired our wall slot the same way and it works now. But, there's a problem. Using the same router and computers as we used in the last apartment, sometimes internet pages will not load. They come up with an error saying the page cannot be found. Usually (but not always) if I reload the page, it will come up. This happens the same on all browsers and with both computers. (mine using XP and the other running Vista) It's weird because if I have a streaming video playing, it will work great with no pauses but while that video is playing perfectly, the webpages will still act the same way...about every 2 to 3 webpages won't load the first time and sometimes not at all after 4 to 5 refreshes.Then, on the sixth or seventh refresh, it will suddenly work. Sometimes, no pages work for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Obviously the internet is on because of the working videos, but for some reason the browsers can't find pages anyway. I don't know what to do and I don't know if I explained it right, but if you have questions feel free to ask. Thanks so much for your willingness to help! It's really a problem, especially when writing an email, sending that email, and there's a problem loading the page at that very moment and the email is lost. Any help would be great! Thanks!

The Fabien Castanier Gallery in Los Angeles recently welcomed works from Dominican-American artist JonOne and his collection 'A Beautiful Madness.'
Growing up in Harlem in the 80s inspired JonOne to create his colorful pieces. "The craziness of the 80s," as he calls it, meant traps like drugs and violence. Out of these dangers came graffiti and he was inspired by the tagged subway cars which he describes as "this moving movement of color" on his site.
Running until December 2nd, the gallery showcases his intricately vibrant color style and street art sensibilities. However, despite such sensibilities, JonOne resists a label for his art. He points out in the video that when you say "graffiti" to some it could mean "the guy that painted on my truck." And when you say "street art" it doesn't exactly fit either because he doesn't paint in the street.

I would like to start several butterfly bushes from seed to plant in a sort of hedge. I understand it may take several weeks for these to germinate. Should several seeds be planted close together or will just one seed form a bush? How quickly do they grow? They will be started in a container and transplanted outside when they are large enough.
Any information will be appreciated. I am in zone 5. |
Follow-Up Postings:
One seed, one giant bush! Mine grew to 4 feet the first year and 7 feet the second year. The sprouts stay tiny for a while before they take off. Once they take off, they grow fast but in zone 5 they die back to the ground every winter. The first winter I mulched heavily with leaves. Once established they are fine but here in Nebraska they need to get through their first winter with some protection. To sow, just sprinkle the seeds on the medium and pat them in. I've only started them using the Winter Sowing method, never inside, so I can't give you any tips about that. |

Sow them thinly, you don't need very many! They are easy to germinate at room temperature. I've seen it written that they need chilling, but they don't. Don't cover the seed with soil. |

I wonder how you did? I just ordered butterfly bush seeds and I am looking forward to planting them. They sound easy to plant! |

It's my first time growing butterfly bush from seed and I can say it was relatively easy to get the seeds to germinate. So far so good. Gardengirlz, I suppose it's okay to direct sow but it may just take longer for the seed to germinate. Ianna |
