That's right, fantasy football is back! Well, it's been back since June, but now it's back for real, and so are our fantasy predictions and prognostications doomed to be wrong. We're kicking off our 2011 fantasy coverage with a look at free agency, and the players whose fantasy stock either rose or plummeted with their new place of employment.
Here are six recent free agent transactions that have impacted the fantasy running back world:
1. DeAngelo Williams re-signs with the Panthers
There was a lot of speculation that Williams would be on the move this offseason, but in a surprise move the Panthers re-signed him to a big fat five-year, $43 million deal. So now that Williams is staying in Carolina, what does that mean for his fantasy value? Well first things first: if Cam Newton ends up being the starting QB, the Panthers will rely on the run to keep the pressure off the rookie pivot. In that sense, Williams will be a fantasy workhorse, but there are some red flags as well. Williams isn't the only capable runner in the Carolina backfield — he will share some of the load with Jonathan Stewart. And then there's the mobile Newton, who isn't afraid to scramble for yardage either. Next red flag? Injuries. Williams played in only six games last season because of a right foot injury. But durability concerns are nothing new for a running back and Williams should put up some great number this year.
2. Ahmad Bradshaw re-signs with the Giants
2010 was a breakout season for Bradshaw (over 1,500 all-purpose yards, eight touchdowns and 4.5 yards per carry) but what about all those fumbles? The 25-year-old lost six fumbles last year, which was tops among running backs. Has he fixed his fumble issues? Will Brandon Jacobs be able to take back his starting job? What about the offseason surgery Bradshaw had to remove bone spurs in his ankle? The Giants like to pound the football so that bodes well for Bradshaw's fantasy value, but it's likely that Jacobs will steal away those all important goal-line carries. Too good to pass up, but proceed with caution.
3. Willis McGahee signs with the Broncos
For the Broncos, this is a fantasy fail. But for McGahee's former team, the Ravens, this is a fantasy win. The power back will be second in line behind Knowshon Moreno in the Mile High City, so his fantasy output will be limited (but he will get looks inside the five). But with McGahee gone in Baltimore, Ray Rice has no more competition in the backfield. The Ravens will re-focus on the ground game this upcoming season — just another reason why Rice will be a top-five pick in most fantasy drafts. Throw in the fact that fullback Vonta Leach has left Houston for Baltimore (he helped Arian Foster become the leading rusher last season), and this could be a year to remember for Rice.
4. Cedric Benson re-signs with the Bengals
With no Carson Palmer, Chad Ochocinco or Terrell Owens, Benson suddenly becomes the veteran on this rebuilding team (scary thought). The troubled running back's best days are definitely behind him and he has become a one-dimensional player. Simply put: Benson is running out of steam (seven of his 14 career fumbles came last season). With a number of rookies expected to crack the starting lineup in 2011, the 28-year-old will be relied upon more than ever. But is he up to the challenge? Doubtful, especially with the likes of Brian Leonard, Bernard Scott and rookie Jay Finley all threatening to steal carries.
5. Reggie Bush traded to the Dolphins
This move has major fantasy implications for both the Saints and the Fish. The crowded backfield in New Orleans just got a little less crowded but Bush's move to South Beach is more of a plus for rookie Mark Ingram than the newly re-signed Pierre Thomas. The two backs will battle for the starting job (which Ingram is expected to win) but it's a safe bet that Thomas will be utilized much like Bush was in the Saints' system (meaning more passing plays). As for Miami, rookie Daniel Thomas is expected to carry the load, but head coach Tony Sporano has said Bush will receive about 10-12 touches per game (including receptions). Does that make Bush a viable fantasy option? Maybe in the short term as Thomas gets used to his starting role, but Bush is just too inconsistent and that left knee has been a constant problem that fantasy owners can't ignore.
6. Marion Barber signs with the Bears
Much like Reggie Bush, Barber's move to the Windy City impacts both the Cowboys and the Bears. Chicago gets a big bruising back who fits into Mike Martz's system perfectly and will be a real plus as the weather gets colder at Soldier Field. If Barber can reclaim his old form (and shake off the injuries that have slowed him recently) he will be a real threat to Matt Forte's production. And though he'll get the bulk of goal-line carries, he isn't a great fantasy option for the short term. As for the Cowboys, Barber's exit paves the way for Felix Jones to become the full-time starter. But will he be able to take advantage of his newfound position? Last season, Jones was the top running back for the Cowboys with 185 carries, more than Barber and Tashard Choice combined. Only problem? He finished with just 800 yards. With no one breathing down his neck, Jones might finally flourish.

Toad Eggs
Name: Craig Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
A student just brought a mother toad into our classroom. She has the toad in a mixing bowl with thousands of eggs and about a pint of pond water. Are these eggs fertilized? Do they become fertilized in the female or after they are layed? Can we watch them develop in our classroom? Is there any special water, lighting, temperature, or plants I should include?
I believe all toad eggs are externally fertilized while they are being laid, with the pair together. I don't think the female would have laid the eggs without the presence of a male to fertilize them - how did the student get the female and the eggs? Try to get some details about where and how they were collected, if the student saw or scared off and failed to catch a male with the female then the eggs might be fertile. If so they should hatch with very little effort on your part, a good size aquarium with a few duckweed or other small water plants from the area would be fine, no special lighting or temperature should be required. If they hatch you will have to find out about feeding the tadpoles.

A few days later, I received an email apologizing for their error. Someone else was supposed to get the ban-stick.

According to three people familiar with the matter, the sale of One Equity Partners, a JP Morgan Chase's private equity unit, has hit an impasse.
Two people close to potential buyers said the bank "pulled" the business off the market. Another source, active in the secondary market but not directly involved with the process, described the auction as stalled after the bank increased its asking price.
"The bid/ask spread has widened dramatically," the secondary professional said. "It's hard to imagine someone stretching to that level. There's a lot of disappointed buyers."
Sources said the bank could revive an auction of One Equity at any time. "The question is, do they try and come back six months from now, or never?" one source said.
A spokesperson for JP Morgan Chase declined to comment.
The bank announced last July it was spinning off One Equity, its last remaining private equity operation, because the unit was not core. JP Morgan Chase was not under regulatory pressure to sell: One Equity would not be affected by the Dodd-Frank financial reform law, which restricts the ability of bank holding companies to own and operate private equity groups, sister news service Reuters reported last year.

This seems so basic, but I'll ask anyway. I put down a nice layer of fine bark mulch around the shrubs and perennials in my garden in the fall. Now I'm getting the beginnings of weeds springing up, including hundreds of tiny maple shoots. I have read that the easiest non-chemical way to get rid of weeds is to hoe them up while they're still tender in early spring. So: do I rake the mulch aside or can I hoe right through it? I don't want to mix the mulch into the soil and ruin its purpose. But I also don't want to give myself unnecessary labor. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Slide the hoe under the mulch and pull toward you just skim the surface of the soil. With practice the mulch will separated with the hoes passage and then can be straighted. Most people use the hoe as a chopping instrument but it is really supposed to be used to cut the plants off at or just below the surface. Cutting at that depth will not stir up as many old seeds as cutting deeper. It may be easier to just pull the shoots after a rainy day. Sit on a piece of cardboard and start pulling. I let my oak seedling so too long so now I have a mess. |
Thanks! That's very helpful. I will probably do a mix of pulling and hoeing. The maple really seemed to go crazy this year--I can't believe how many shoots there are, all through the lawn and gardens! |

VIENNA, Va., May 2, 2013 – Hot Club of Cowtown is rather cumbersome name to say out loud. But how does its name relate to the band's actual live show? Every so often, a band will choose a handle that encapsulates the necessary information about the band. In this case, this band's name seems to be a direct reference to its mutual influences from both the western and jazz musical worlds.
Hot Club of Cowtown has the look and feel you would associate with one of the more energetic and crowd pleasing live shows around. So in a certain kind of setting it's easy to see they could be the hottest ticket in town. Their name aptly describes the general nature of their sound and the kind of audience they happen to attract. Their recent show at Jammin' Java might not have been sold out, but it would've been hard to pack any more people into the venue than were already there.
As their name implies, the atmosphere Hot Club of Cowtown creates is something like mixing a hoedown into a speakeasy. The sound they've created has a distinct, almost mythic feel of prohibition-era music along with the frantic Flapper Era type of energy that distinguished that period of time from all others that had gone before it. Young people were breaking out, radically altering fashion, clothing, and lifestyles to suit their more modern, sophisticated, and liberated tastes.
Almost a century later, Hot Club of Cowtown is conjuring up some of that atmosphere in its current performances. But at the same time, they're still playing into the audiences' imagination. Tey do this partially by keeping the pace up-tempo as much as possible with strong dose of spontaneity added for effect. It is not all that uncommon for them to launch into a song, but then seemingly stop and go off on a new tangent. We soon discover that the original song was never abandoned, only strung out even further than initially anticipated.
The unfortunate thing about playing at Jammin' Java, though, is that Hot Club of Cowtown is at its core a dance band that plays dance music. Whether they choose to drive the pace as fast as possible, or during the few occasions they slow things down, the band's music is inherently insisting that the audience remain on the move at every moment. That's somewhat at odds with this otherwise sit down style venue. But paradoxically, it's also perfect for this band in the sense that it gives the audience the ability to mill around and almost push the band to the background.
Hot Club of Cowtown doesn't seem to be greatly concerned with the tangible content of their songs. Violinist Elana James and guitarist Whit Smith share vocal duties, interchanging between songs but this at times almost feels like happenstance to break up instrumentals. The band is at their best when James is just going to town sawing away on his fiddle or when Jake Erwin is plucking away with impressive speed on his stand-up bass. It's during moments like these that they clearly take on the feel of a house band, creating backdrop sound to accompany everyone's vision of the night while random happenings unfold all around.
That's the line Hot Club of Cowtown seem to straddle effortlessly. They seem happy in their dual identity as the band the audience wants to focus on as well as the band that's just giving them an interesting soundtrack to provide a musical fabric for individual and group activities. Under a different scenario, they would've created the perfect atmosphere for their audience to dance the night away. But under the circumstances present at Jammin' Jave, they're a band that can be appreciated better as artists when the finer details of their unique sound can really be heard and appreciated.

Kristian's post from Tuesday, recollecting his favourite goals ever, inspired me to delve into the deeper recesses of my cerebral cortex, and dig out… my least favourite goals of all time. I'm sure there are many strikes that I have tucked away in an even deeper recess, goals that I needed to forget about in order to live a happy and productive life, but the following ten little gems managed to not only ruin my viewing pleasure, but in each case actually managed to dramatically alter my mood for several days. What a saddo you may say, well, yes… indeed. England and Liverpool fans, perhaps it's best you hit that little X in the top right corner of the screen right now… do it!
Lawrie Sanchez for Wimbledon in the 1988 FA Cup final. Bastard.
England decide not to close down the worlds premier attacking mid, in Luis Figo at Euro 2004. Bastard.
Mladen Petric rips any interest in Euro 2008 out of my heart. Bastard.
Javier Zanetti causes David Beckham a little strife for the next few years, cicrc World Cup 1998. Bastard.
Staying with the Argentina theme, one I actually hate to love. Diego. Bastard.
As if you'd think I'd forget about this one. I cried. I still do. Diego again. Bastard.
I remember crying over this one as well , my friends grandfather, a Gooner, actually died celebrating! Michael effing Thomas, 1989. Bastard.
Time now to thank some very special goalkeepers. To begin, Robert Green. Bastard.
Up next, David Seaman makes all of Englands fine play, mean utter shite, courtesy Ronaldinho. Bastard.
Must say, I still feel for Paul Robinson on this one, the turf? Not so much. Bastard grass.
England fans, you'll get the irony on this one. Linesman. Bastard.
And to end… a little something from 1993, around the 3:15 mark. Gretzky. Dare I say it? Ok. Bastard.

Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Baby Buddy!
Facts about Baby Buddy
- Breed: American Shorthair
- Color: Brown Tabby
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Baby Buddy's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Meet awesome sweet little Buddy! This adorable baby was saved from a man about to turn him into Animal Care and Control. Baby Buddy absolutely loves people and will quickly become your best friend! Buddy loves being pet, romping with my cats, playing with their tales as well as his own and chasing balls, bells and fake mice. He actually isn't too crazy for a kitten, playful, but pretty calm as well, making him the perfect kitten! Entertaining and adorable! What a fabulous demeaner for such a youngster!
This little sweetheart is 6 months old. Baby Buddy has received his first FVRCP vaccine, has tested negative for FIV/FeLV, has been dewormed, microchipped and is flea free. He is also litterbox trained. Buddy is a special kitty. He will always be a small kitty. He has a heart murmur and is expected to live 4-7 years. Wouldn't it be wonderful to make them wonderful years full of love and joy, as much love and joy as he will bring you?

Thanks for thinking of a rescued cat! Buddy and I look forward to meeting you!

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Baby Buddy, a New York American Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Shorthair for sale in New York, or seeking a American Shorthair kitten from a breeder in New York.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in New York 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 New York 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 American Shorthair breeders who help with American Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in New York paves the way for another one to be saved.

Matthew opened her round with four-straight pars but got things going on the par 5 5th hole. The 19-year LPGA Tour veteran sank a 25-foot eagle putt and followed it up with a birdie on No. 6 and 8 to move to 12-under before the turn.
"I played really well again, you know, gave myself a lot of chances," said Matthew. "Good chances at 1, 3 and 4 that I missed by 10 feet and holed a good eagle putt on 5. I mean, it feels really good. I've holed a lot of putts. I've given myself a lot of chances, so I wouldn't say I've really holed many super long ones, but every time I give myself a chance, I'm kind of taking advantage of it."
Matthew would go on to pick up two more birdies on Nos. 11 and 16 before closing out with a four-foot birdie putt on the 18th to move to 15-under par. She missed only one fairway and one green in regulation on Friday and said she felt her work on the greens was her strength of her round.
"I don't know. I mean, I would say first time here, obviously suits my eye a little bit, maybe just got the speed of the greens," said Matthew. "I think that's the important thing. When you're holing putts, it all seems quite easy."
American Angela Stanford trails Matthew by three shots and said her ball striking stood out to her in her round. She finished with a 4-under 67 that included five birdies and one bogey.
"Ball striking for sure, giving myself some chances," said Stanford. "And actually the putts have finally found the bottom of the hole. But I think just my confidence comes from how I hit the ball, and I've been hitting it really well this week and I know what's going on in my golf swing and swing thoughts are good. So any time I'm feeling this way, I can't wait to try to make the putts."
A group of five players are in a tie for third at 11-under par including two-time LPGA winner Anna Nordqvist, 2011 U.S. Solheim Cup team member Ryann O'Toole, Spaniard Belen Mozo and South Koreans Meena Lee and Chella Choi.

The Obama Administration has decided to strengthen existing sanctions on Iran (with a few new additions) rather than taking the more dramatic step of targeting Iran's ability to sell its crude oil in international markets . keep in mind that the United States has its own interests at heart. Targeting Iran's crude exports would likely have an impact on the international crude markets and the price of oil. Furthermore, Iran still holds the trump card that is the ability to disrupt tanker traffic in the straights of hormuz. Right. At least one source I have seen has said Iranian official would interpret sanctioning the Central Bank as an act of war. If we are already limiting their ability to get their oil out, it probably wouldn't be a big step for them to start mining the Stra
it of Hormuz.
But what would tightening look like? Iran's four largest export markets is this non-oil exports? what do they export besides oil, and how does it compare to oil? This is total exports. However, 82.4% of all of Iran's exports are "fuels and mining products. Manufactured goods represent 12.6% and agricultural products represent 5.0% With regards to Japan between 98 and 99% of Iran's exports are "mineral fuels, oils, distilattion products, etc." according to Trade Map. For Tawain it's closer to 93% with organic chemicals being the next largest export at between 3-6%. Totals are different for different EU countries. For Germany totals for oil products as a percent of total Iranian imports is between 45 ad 65% of total imports, while the second largest category is fruit and nuts at between 10-16%. For France on the other hand oil products represent 90-95% of their Iranian imports. Not sure who's buying Iranian manufactured goods are Japan (23.9 % of exports), Tawain (22.5%), the European Union (19.8%), and the UAE (2.9%). Interestingly, the vast majority of Iran's imports (74.8%) have unspecified origins. Not sure how you put pressure on trade partners of unspecified origin.
Working with Iran's trade partners to enforce existing sanctions might consist of a few elements:
o Persuading major oil importers to limit Iranian oil purchases how, without impacting the price of oil? Are there, for instance, any major oil producers with the capacity to ramp up production?There are mixed reports on Saudis ability to ramp up production. Saudi recently denied rumors that it would increase production to 15 million bpd from its current 12.5 million. But in the long term they are projected to raise their output to around 14 -15 million bpd. The International Energy Agency Estimates thate there are about 5 million bpd of spare capacity in OPEC countries almost all of which is in Saudi. Iran produces about 4 million bpd so it would be tight. I thought Russia might be able to ramp up, but their production is in decline due to lack of investment. and limit transactions with Iranian financial institutions
o Working with transshipment hubs like the UAE, Maylaysia, and Singapore which allow goods going into and leaving Iran to skirt sanctions to limit the amount of Iranian goods they handle this requires being able to identify all the shell companies that work with iran. certainly this is somthing the US is doing, but Iran is quick, clever and has a lot of options for running most trade on a grey/black market Agree. The US has been sucessful in pursudaing Dubai based shell companies to shut down, but it is easy for them to move elsewhere. But as the US clamps down on major transshipment centers Iran will have to go to further flung places
o Working with European firms to encourage divestment in from? yes Iran
It's hard to say what impact these policies would have on Iran's economy. No doubt they would help contribute to the current inflationary environment and probably put some strain on government revenues. By targeting transshipment hubs, it will make it harder for Iran to get its goods to market and for good to get in to Iran. But, the effects will not be as dire as options which would directly target Iran's ability to sell crude petroleum products.

Subject: DISCUSSION - Iran Sanction Options
To date, multiple US, EU, and UNSC have failed to persuade Iran to cease its pursuit of a nuclear weapons arsenal. Among other things , US sanctions have targeted all forms of commerce with Iran and most recently exports of gasoline to Iran by foreign entities while the UNSC sanctions have demanded cooperation with the IAEA and instituted a complete arms embargo.
As our standing assessment is that the US is unprepared to deal with Iran's response to a strike on its nuclear capabilities, the US has little choice but to continue imposing sanctions that kick the can down the road until we are either prepared for the consequences of a strike on Iran or regime change occurs in Iran. Of course, despite the fact that sanctions will not produce the desired change in Iranian behavior, the US will still want them to inflict as much pain on the regime as possible i would call it inconvenience. Skirting th sanctions takes a lot of effort. However, the relative effectiveness of any sanctions will be limited by European, Russian and Chinese cooperation.
One recent proposal from which the Obama Administration has backed away called for sanctioning Iran's Central Bank , which conducts open market operations to keep Iran's currency, the rial, stable . This move was strongly opposed by many Europe countries that still maintain trading relationships with Iran and who believe such a step would make it extremely difficult for Iran to make international payments. (For a list of companies doing business in Iran check out the Congressional Research Service Report I link to below).
Another proposal being considered in the current Congressional session would target sales of Iranian crude oil by making sanctionable long term oil purchasing contracts conducted anywhere in the world with the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC). However, any efforts to target Iran's energy producing sector on a multilateral (UNSC) level are sure to meet with opposition from China and possibly Russia too. Iran is a large supplier of the oil which China uses to fuel its economic growth. Russia likes to use its relationship with Iran as a tool to extract concessions from the US with regards to its FSU sphere of influence. It might be willing to agree to further sanctions, but would want something in return.
More thoughts on the roles Russia and China might play in this would be appreciated. China doesn't want to see a destabilizing event, if nothing else because of the price of oil. They will try to prevent the US from making any UN moves.
For a good list of sanction measures currently being considered in Congress check out this CRS report: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCAQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fas.org%2Fsgp%2Fcrs%2Fmideast%2FRS20871.pdf&ei=IEW4ToWUM4OisQKVpM2FBA&usg=AFQjCNECZz4bPbF_-euTQNJ4w_6notq_Yg&sig2=POnEEXa-up5zB-B17HAr5w

Neil Kinsey writes that finely ground calcium will become available for uptake over a three-year period - 1/3 each year. With this in mind, here's my question: Let's say I want to raise my calcium levels and I'm only concerned with this year. Do I need to add 3x the amount lime? For example, let's say my soil test says I need to add 200 lbs./acre of high calcium lime in order to achieve 68% base saturation. Would I add 600 lbs instead - again, assuming I want to get to 68% this year, without regard to any excesses I might see next year or the year after? |
Follow-Up Postings:
If you want calcium, not pH change, then maybe gypsum is better. Gypsum is good for calcium, but does little, if any thing to change your pH level. |
- Posted by fortyonenorth 6b (My Page) on Mon, Mar 5, 12 at 13:48
I'm not too worried about pH - though in this particular instance, I need a bump anyway. |
I'm a little stumped by the "only concerned about this year." I suggest adding somewhere between 1/3 ans 1/2 the total amount...and do it last fall and have worked the calcium in fully so that the whole spectrum of topsoil is converting the calcium to whatever useful material is needed. |
It's an area you will not be using again after the next season? |
- Posted by fortyonenorth 6b (My Page) on Mon, Mar 5, 12 at 15:02
It's somewhat theoretical. It's part of a series of experiments I'm doing with container fertility. The baseline for my experiments is a "balanced" substrate. The research will be for single season crops and the mix will be composted after one season. For my in ground plants, I've never given the "3-year" availability much thought - since the process is ongoing. But, like I said in the opening post, I want to get my Ca levels to 68% base saturation. But, if I'm only getting "credit" for 1/3 of the lime, I'm worried that I'll be short. |
Your soil Calcium and Magnesium levels need to be in balance because plants cannot properly use one or the other without each other. If your soil test suggests adding 200 pounds of calcitic lime that is what you need to add. More will simply create problems for you you do not want to have. Keep in mind that in nutrition more is not always better, for us or our plants. |
JolJ has a good point that I think you may have missed (not sure you did). The biggest reason to add lime is to balance your PH. I would recommend that you do a little research on how PH affects soil nutrient availability. If a soil test suggests that you add lime in some amount and over 3 years you would achieve x results that means that you would expect it to take that long to balance your PH. Changing your soil PH (and thus freeing up Ca), is a long slow process in most cases. If you add 3x the amount you might have good results this year but in 3 years you would have ruined your soil more or less permanently. I live in the west where few tests recommend lime. Thats because we have naturally high PH of from 7.8-8.3 mostly because of our low moisture and in some locations because of our calcareous soils (high lime content). Changing calcareous soils from high PH to lower ph takes the addition of lots of sulfer, and/or pete, and/or organics. Months after adding these things the soil will have changed 0.5-1.0 (maybe) in PH level. A different school of thought is that maybe instead of trying to change ph, you should just add what is missing so that it is in high enough amounts to be available to plants. Hence the gypsum instead of lime suggestion. That way you would add enough calcium that you don't need a ph change. |
People put lime down every year, often in not large enough quantities to really do much and most often at the wrong time of year (spring). Even some horticulturists will add lime every year, "because our soil is always acidic" but not enough to really change anything because a few handfulls probably is not. If your soil test says you need to add 200 pounds of Calcitic lime per acre to your soil their years of studying soil nutrition are being used to aid you in getting it right. Calcium takes some time to work in soils and if enough is put down will last for some time. Calcium, added to your soil this spring, probably will not make a significant change to your soils pH until fall. |
The answer to the question in your post is "Yes" you would have to add 3 times the recommended amount of pulverized limestone to increase your base saturation this year to approximately 68%. Since the pulverized limestone rock dissolves at a slow rate, approximately 225-300 lbs. of the 600 lbs. would dissolve in the first 12 months. (The effect would be somewhat front-loaded since more limestone is present to dissolve in the first year, and the more acidic conditions the first year would result in faster reaction of the limestone with the acidic compounds in the soil.) Your soil will be only very slightly PH overcorrected after three years since 600 lbs. per acre (14 lbs per 1,000 Sq. Ft.) of pulverized limestone will only have a small inconsequential effect on the PH. Typical application rates of pulverized limestone on acid soils are often a ton or more per acre. |

Thanks for the comments. As I stated upthread, I'm conducting specific experiments and I'm only concerned with this year. I consulted an agronomist and he clarified the 3-year breakdown that I mentioned earlier. He said that this is a general assumption, and applies more to lime "left on the surface or in a minimum till situations [which] may take up to three years to totally dissolve because once the pH in the immediate area of the lime rises to 7 the solubility of the lime will drop to about 5-10%." His recommendation was that I apply extra lime (roughly 2x) but not the 3x rate that I pondered. |

Nope. As previously mentioned: It's part of a series of experiments I'm doing with container fertility. and As I stated upthread, I'm conducting specific experiments and I'm only concerned with this year. |

In my mind the soil in containers will react differently then the soil in the ground. Using garden soil in containers is not very satisfactory. If you are using a formula developed for ground soil it would be all off for container soil. I don't know what formula one would use for containers since you could buy some perfectly balanced soil, and it would not be necessary to do complex calculations and soil tests on the containers. |
- Posted by fortyonenorth 6b (My Page) on Sat, Mar 10, 12 at 12:40
you could buy some perfectly balanced soil I'm not aware of any commercial bagged soil mixes that are both minerally balanced and offer the appropriate porosity and water holding characteristics. |
- Posted by tropical_thought San Francisco (My Page) on Sat, Mar 10, 12 at 13:56
I don't mean perfect, but at least it would not have a gross imbalance that would require lime. |
- Posted by piedmontnc 7b-8 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 11, 12 at 11:18
Wouldn't hydrated lime give you the quick boost you desire? |
- Posted by fortyonenorth 6b (My Page) on Sun, Mar 11, 12 at 14:06
That's a thought, piedmont. I know it's fast acting as a liming agent to adjust pH. Something to think about. |
- Posted by tropical_thought San Francisco (My Page) on Sun, Mar 11, 12 at 19:12
What about bone meal to raise the calcium. I once bought some calcium carbonate. You can get it kind of cheap. It is like pills women take. Even tums is made of calcium carbonate, but has colors and flavors. It may be possible to buy calcium carbonate powder in bulk. I don't know if it would work to add calcium carbonate. If you had to ad magnesium, I think you could get the pills with both calcium and magnesium. If it was in a pot, it would be small, grind it up or maybe dissolve it in water. Then you should be able to measure the pot to see if it has higher calcium levels before you compost the contents. I just put the calcium pills in my compost bin and composted them and I think I have more calcium, but I can't tell. I have no way to measure it. There are sales at Walgreens buy one get one free and that sort of thing. Walmart or Costco has the large discounted sizes. Ebay sometimes has deals if you buy it bulk. A case of 12 bottles at a low price. |

Tropical- you can get calcium carbonate up in Petaluma. There's a place they process oyster shells. I thought you could buy it by the pound, but it only comes in a 50 lb sack! I'll never have to buy any again! Nancy |
What's the downside to adding lime in the spring? Doesn't it eventually help raise the PH? I have very acidic soil (5.6). I never got around to applying lime last wall. I have the bags in my garage...Am thinking my vegetable garden doesn't do as well as it could because of the PH situation. Shouldn't I go ahead and apply it and work it in the soil before I start anew? Thanks. |
I think the reason for adding lime in the Fall is so it has time to break down into a useable foam over the Winter(4-6 months). If you put it out in the Spring, it will do little in the next4-6 months & your Winter will cover your garden with snow. But your plants can use it the next Spring. So if you read this post NOW in the Spring put the lime out so it can break down.But it would have been better to put it out last Fall. A Chinese gardener said "The best time to plant a tree is 20 year ago. The second best time is today." |
Thanks! I like that Chinese proverb....that's my garden :-) So I put it down now, I would bypass the fall right as that would be overkill? |
- Posted by fortyonenorth 6b (My Page) on Mon, Mar 12, 12 at 13:53
If you put it out in the Spring, it will do little in the next4-6 months Finely ground lime will can affect pH within a week. Pelletized lime takes somewhat longer, but you still see results within a month. Yes, it can take much longer to become fully effective, but spring application, if it is required, will definitely help the next crop. |
- Posted by tropical_thought San Francisco (My Page) on Mon, Mar 12, 12 at 14:06
50 pounds is a lot. Maybe it is possible to over do it. I can,t add lime to my soil so calcium would be the way to go, but when I compost I increase the plants ability to absorb what little calcium may be there. I actually need to increase acid levels in my soil. |
Oh good! I am using finely ground lime. So hopefully I will see some benefit this season. |
- Posted by nancyjane_gardener USDA 8ish No CA (My Page) on Mon, Mar 12, 12 at 20:44
Tropical, if you're up in the Santa Rosa area, look me up and I'll give you some calcium carbonate! I have about 49 pounds! Nancy |

I found a way to get calcium carbonate. I was in the pet store to by the stuff for the frog tanks, and there was a bag of calcium carbonate for reptiles to live in as tank substrate. I just wanted to share that, since the lady who had to buy it got stuck with 50 pounds. This is handy sized, you can carry it home. |

Your WoWJutsu rank
The folks at WoWJutsu provide a great little competitive tool that ranks guilds according to the PvE raid content they've completed. The site is pretty popular, and a lot of guilds use it in their advertising over at the Guild Recruitment Forums. My guild has been known to pay pretty close attention to the number. I have to admit that about once a week I find myself checking our ranking against those of other guilds my friends are in.
This got me thinking... what good does basing your progress against other guilds do? Sure, there are the ultra competitive guilds like Death and Taxes and Nihilum. However they approach the game in a way that leads them to needing to care about how close the guild behind them is doing. For most of us, competing against other guilds is only going to lead to unforeseen frustrations. Most guilds have a boss or two that they get hung up on. Back in the days when BWL was hard, my guild spent a long time defeating Razorgore, and after he was gone the rest of the instance fell within a month. This kind of common hurdle in WoW is not reflected in WoWJutsu; all you get to know is that a guild is stuck on a boss, not that they're going to have amazing progress after it.

Name earrings are a great to show off your sense of style in a personalized way. They're often more understated than a name ring or necklace, but still capture the personal touch you want from your jewelry. Unlike those other accessories, name earrings typically aren't available as engraved jewelry, but rather as nameplates � you can pick from several different scripts, metals, and the hoop design of your choice, for a great looking everyday accessory that shows off your unique style.
Limoges Jewelry creates thousands of rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings to order every year, which is why we're one of the most popular retailers of personalized jewelry on the web. When you create your name earrings at our site, you can be sure it's going to be what you want � and if it isn't, we have an extensive return policy that extends to our personalized collection, because your satisfaction is important to us. Look at a couple of our most popular name earring designs below.
Sterling Silver Medium Name HoopsThese classically-styled name earrings have plenty of understated style. Featuring stark sterling silver hoops and a name up to nine letters, these are a great accent for any outfit.
Sterling Silver Script Name EarringsThis set of sleek name earrings forgo the popular ring format in favor of a diamond-cut tail. Made in sterling silver, these earrings are a popular choice.
14K Gold over Sterling Genuine Diamond Name HoopsThese fine name earrings pair 14 karat gold with a sterling silver base. Diamond accents over your name ensure these earrings will turn heads.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Hope!
Facts about Hope
- Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd (Unknown Type) Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Hope's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
Hope is one of the sweetest dogs you will ever meet despite the hard time she had before she was rescued. Hope was abandoned in a home. She had puppies but she doesn't know what happened to them. When she realized her owners weren't coming back she decided to get out of the house and look for food. She ate garbage for a while out of ditches and then she smelled something really good, cat food in a trap. She went into the trap to get the food and she was stuck in the trap until someone found her. Hope wants a fresh start where she feels she won't be abandoned again. Hope's adoption fee is 150.00
Other Pets at Faith, Hope and Love Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Hope, a Titusville Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd (Unknown Type) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd (Unknown Type) for sale in Titusville, or seeking a Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd (Unknown Type) dog from a breeder in Titusville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Titusville 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 Titusville 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 Cattle Dog/Shepherd (Unknown Type) breeders who help with Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd (Unknown Type) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Titusville paves the way for another one to be saved.

Bernard Wilker
Bernard was a farmer, plumber and pipe fitter at Celina Lake Contracting. He served his country in the Army during the Korean War. He played baseball as a child for the Motezuma Ducks as a catcher and also played while in Korea. Bernard Wilker was born on March 7, 1933, in St. Mary's, OH to Julius and Gertrude (Kramer) Wilker. On November 5, 1955 he married Marceil Brunswick, they had nine children, four boys and 5 girls. All their children are married: Ben (Cristy) of Elida, Dan (Traycee) of Lima, Don (Jerri) of Missouri, Andy (Lisa) of St. Mary's. Doris (Doug) Knapke of New Breman, Norma (Jeff) Hostetler of Cedarville, Lil (Steve) Borchers of Versailles, Angela (Steve) Putman of Wilmington and Sandra ( Todd) Miller of Troy. Bernard has 31 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren. He had seven brothers and a sister: Martin, Jerome, Wilfred, Lester, Charles, Gerald, Paul and sister Carolyn Mangen. Bernard died in 2004 of the Bulbar form of ALS. As a family they did not allow him to go into a nursing home facility. Many of the family are nurses or similar in profession so they took a course to learn how to manage their father's care. As many whom have had the misfortune to witness someone go through this disease, they know how devastating to see how debilitating the body can become. It was very hard to watch our Father/Grandfather not to be able to do the things he so loved to do, but he would not have it any other way. They continued to come to his home and help out as best they could and visit as a family, because that is what Bernard loved the most, being with his family. We love our father/grandfather dearly and will forever miss him!! Our hope is that through the efforts such as this, just even knowing that someone cares as much as this, it will make a difference. A cure will be the bonus that makes all of it worth it in the end!!

How to Be a Better Husband
No one needs to walk on eggshells in his own house. But when you live with other people and you want to keep the peace, it helps to follow a few simple guidelines
PLUS: How to Be a Good Neighbor >>
No clothes on the floor. Dirty stuff in the hamper, put the rest away.
Hahaha. But seriously: Go ahead and throw your clothes on the floor, but only in the area immediately surrounding your side of the bed. Nobody will trip on them but you.
Acceptable things to do in bed: sleeping, reading, watching TV, having sex, and, if necessary, the discreet breaking of wind.
Unacceptable things to do in bed: eating, smoking, clipping nails, engineering a Dutch oven for her presumed enjoyment.
One hit of the snooze button: fine. Two hits: really? Three or more: dick.
There is no honor in fighting over the remote. Particularly if the other person is twelve.
Other things in which there is no honor: the entire fourth season of unwatched Friday Night Lights clogging up the DVR; yelling at the television, except at the apex of a Very Big Game; food stains on the sofa cushion you usually occupy.
Water stains: no laughing matter. Coasters, or, if one isn't handy, a book or magazine.
The scratching of one's ass is a pleasure best enjoyed outside the kitchen.
It is better to finish something off completely than to leave one sip of milk or the butt of the bread loaf.
You: Take out garbage. Fix appliances when broken. Clear table. Her: Wipe down counters. Sweep floor. Clean out fridge. Everyone: Buy groceries. Do dishes. Cook.
Sit down to eat. Barring that, over the counter or sink. Pick up crumbs any larger than a grain of rice. Forget about the rest.
No. 2: Flush and, when in doubt, flush again. Light a match or, if it's there, a candle.
No. 2: Flush and, when in doubt, flush again. Light a match or, if it's there, a candle.
Should your wife or partner befoul the bathroom: polite silence, or possibly an innocent joke. Note: "Damn, woman, what'd you eat?" is not an innocent joke.
Brushing teeth, shaving, possibly even showering if it's just you and the missus: Door can remain ajar. Anything else: Shut it firmly.
Beard whiskers in the sink, patches of toothpaste here and there: totally fine.

Bob Graham Thinks Florida Has Lost Its Way
Graham tries to remain above party politics and doesn't call out any politicians by name, but it's clear that he doesn't like the current direction of Florida under a Tea Party-influenced Governor and one of the most lopsidedly Republican legislatures in state History.
Graham claims today's leadership is ignoring "Florida's core values" and decries cuts to Everglades restoration and education.
Graham clearly thinks that tax cuts for the wealthy and deep cuts to services are to blame. With Florida's growth engine cooled off, Graham thinks Florida needs to make investments to lure the technology industry.
"Get serious about attracting the technology industries which are shaping and will shape the world's future," writes Graham. "This will require a dual strategy: a renewed commitment to the protection of our competitive edge -- Florida's environment -- and building a world-class preschool through graduate school education system. The states which have benefited most by technology industries -- such as North Carolina and Virginia -- have done so not by selling themselves as the cheapest places to do business but rather as states that have built the infrastructure and the educational institutions which will most help businesses achieve sustained profitability."
Graham also points to cold hard facts to paint the strategy of constant tax cuts as failures. Since Jeb Bush's initial round of tax cuts, which mainly helped the top 5 percent of earners, the average salary for Floridians has fallen, as well as the overall number of jobs created.
The increase in jobs from 2000 to 2010, after the economic development stimulating tax cuts began taking effect, was 606,798. This increase was substantially less in the two decades prior to the tax cuts: 1980-1990: 1,998,833; 1990-2000: 1,530,936.It's not a pretty picture painted by a man who knows Florida better than most. While many painted the results of the federal midterm election on the Democrat's supposed failure to turn around the economic downturn, it's a wonder that state Republicans have continued to get themselves elected even though the past 12 years they've been in control have seen Florida's economy slide into uncharted depths.
Those statistics describe the quantity of jobs created before and after the tax cuts. In terms of take-home pay, what was the quality of those jobs? Florida first achieved a long-sought goal of exceeding the national average of per capita income in 1983 when Floridians earned 100.3 percent of the national average. State workers reached a peak in per capita income in 1987 at 101.7. By 2010 that relationship reversed and Floridians earned only 96.8 percent of the national average.
After 12 years of tax cuts, there is no evidence in these numbers that the cuts have achieved their purpose of accelerating quality jobs.
