Top 5 Driving Albums
I've been traveling up and down the East Coast a great deal lately, often with my only companion being the car stereo. Sitting for hours behind the wheel, passing though industrial parks and strip malls, over hills and through the woods, all the while watching the sun and moon take turns illuminating my trip, it's the soundtrack of the road that helps keep me sane. So here it is, my top 5 albums to listen to while driving. I've carefully researched all of these while gliding over the asphalt of highways and back roads, dodging the taillights of drivers from New Jersey, scrounging for change on the floor before I pass through that next toll, and they have all stood the test of time (and miles).5. Janes Addiction – Ritual de lo Habitual: This album is great because it's like getting two albums in one. Side one of this alternative rock pioneering masterpiece is filled with funky bass lines, rocking guitar solos, and upbeat sing-a-long classics. When Perry Farrell chants "Gimme that – your automobile, turn off that smokestack and that goddamn radio" in the opening song "Stop," its hard to resist stomping on the brakes in order to better "hum along." And what better song to sing as you walk into the store at the rest stop than "Been Caught Stealing?" However, once you get to the second side (if you are as unfortunate as I am to only have a tape deck in your vehicle) these California natives completely change the tone of the album with three opuses in a row. Rock and funk break away into more complex and experimental compositions that take their time to unfold. At first the eerie opening of "3 Days" informs you that the party side of the album is over. After nearly eleven minutes of the most ambitious song Jane's Addiction ever recorded, Ferrell and company keep up the intensity with the orchestral "Then She Did…" complete with the epic swells of a string section. "Of Course" mixes in some Middle Eastern flavor, making whatever trip you're on feel that much more exotic for the next 7 minutes. Finally Ritual lets you back down with the quiet ballad "Classic Girl" which gracefully sets the stage for what's next…
4. Neurosis – Through Silver In Blood: This ethereal hardcore outfit has been making some of the most challenging and artistic mood music on the heavier side of the spectrum. Each of their albums has a dark undercurrent to it that makes their releases feel more like maddening journeys than albums. Through Silver In Blood is a perfect example. While you physically travel across the open road, the soundsmiths in Neurosis take you on a much more chilling mental venture to the brink of sanity. That being said, I would not recommend this album as the cure for road rage or as something good to keep you awake when you're alone in the middle of the night. The textured interplay between guitar, bass, drums, vocals and samples will assuredly take your mind to a whole new place, with subliminal messages breaking up the monotony of open road. The opening title track begins with ambient noise that slowly makes way for pounding drums to seep in and prepare you for the down-tuned assault of the bass and guitar coming next. Tracks like this and "Aeon" don't so much play as unfold, constantly building to the epic ending of "Enclosure In Flame". Every time you listen to this album, something new emerges from the soundscapes it creates, giving it crucial replay value while trapped behind the wheel.

Comcast Turning Chicago Homes Into Xfinity Hotspots
Soulskill posted about a year ago | from the airwave-rights-are-the-new-mineral-rights-for-homeowners dept.
253BUL2294 writes "The Chicago Tribune is reporting that, over the next few months in Chicago, Comcast is turning on a feature that turns customer networks into public Wi-Fi hotspots. After a firmware upgrade is installed, 'visitors will use their own Xfinity credentials to sign on, and will not need the homeowner's permission or password to tap into their Wi-Fi signal. The homegrown network will also be available to non-subscribers free for several hours each month, or on a pay-per-use basis. Any outside usage should not affect the speed or security of the home subscriber's private network. [...] Home internet subscribers will automatically participate in the network's growing infrastructure, although a small number have chosen to opt out in other test markets.' The article specifically mentions that this capability is opt-out, so Comcast is relying on home users' property, electricity, and lack of tech-savvy to increase their network footprint." Comcast tried this in the Twin Cities area, and was apparently satisfied with the results, though subscribers are starting to notice.

We have a wrap-around style kitchen, which is a separate room with a window to the dining room. The countertops are bumpy tiles that I hate, so I'd like to replace the countertops with something inexpensive (less than $500 for the whole - total 44 sq ft) but a bit nicer, and easier to keep clean - bumpy tile with grout is a real pain to even wipe crumbs off! We've looked at the Ikea countertops and HD and Lowes have lots of nice looking laminate in stock too. However most of them have pre-formed edges, and with the "window" to the dining room I don't know how this would work with the laminate that has built in one edge - and some have built in backsplash too. Any suggestions on how to handle the window area? |

Tiled counters are indeed a beast of their own! Do some online research for laminate counter fabricators, they can give you any edge you are looking for and will work around the pass through opening you have. Good luck! |

Image Is Everything
A well-known photographic manufacturer employs a tennis star to hawk one of their products with the key phrase, "Image is Everything!", used as the sales pitch. Almost all chief executive officers, regardless of the type of business, corporation, organization or institution they lead, know that the image they present to their various publics is extremely important.
To that end, the importance of a consistent and uniform image that runs through all published materials is essential. Publications do not need to look exactly alike, but they do need to follow certain parameters and incorporate certain identifying icons in specific ways to present an organized and consistent look. It is a waste of time and money to have someone in one area of the university spend many hours producing a publication that is not consistent with the other materials being created. This doesn't't benefit the university or the department and therefore is viewed as money spent unwisely. To solve this problem, a publication policy for everyone in the organization to follow is created.
What Does It All Mean?
In a nutshell, planning a publication means two-way planning and organization is not merely a good idea, but is rather essential. In other words, planning and organization by the person or department requesting a publication is equally as important as planning and organizing the publication by CDS.
Producing a publication is not something that happens instantaneously. Cost estimates for the publication and a working time frame need to be calculated; the paper type and ink color need to be determined and possibly ordered; photographs need to be planned and shot; bids may need to be secured; and if the publication is one that needs to be printed off-campus, the time that the printer needs to "turn around the job" must be determined. So, please take the time and follow the steps outlined so we can all be proud of the end product and do the job correctly.

'Transcendence': a cyber drama that's slow to upload
A two-star movie review of "Transcendence," a disappointingly ho-hum sci-fi drama from Christopher Nolan's much-respected cinematographer, Wally Pfister. It stars Johnny Depp, Rebecca Hall, Paul Bettany and Morgan Freeman.
Special to The Seattle Times
Movie Review
'Transcendence,' with Johnny Depp, Rebecca Hall, Paul Bettany, Morgan Freeman. Directed by Wally Pfister, from a screenplay by Jack Paglen. 119 minutes. Rated PG-13 for sci-fi action and violence, some bloody images, brief strong language and sensuality. Several theaters.
"Transcendence" certainly has an impressive pedigree.
The sci-fi drama is the directorial debut of Wally Pfister, Christopher Nolan's longtime cinematographer, whose brooding visuals are a signature element of Nolan's "Batman" trilogy and "Inception." Nolan is listed as the executive producer of the picture, and Morgan Freeman and Cillian Murphy, two of Nolan's favorite actors, appear in minor roles.
Promising, all of it, leading one to hope for a movie in the Nolan mode: dark, gripping, challenging. But alas. It's a promise unfulfilled.
For starters, "Transcendence" is painfully, ponderously slow. It takes a seeming eternity to get to the point where the mind of a murdered scientist (played by Johnny Depp) is uploaded into a supercomputer and then proceeds to try to take over the Internet and, by extension, the world.
His assassination is the work of anti-technology terrorists led by a woman with crazed, kohl-emphasized eyes (played by Kate Mara with a nutty intensity that fairly screams "Look out for me! I'm dangerous!" ).
Before he's shot, the picture must establish the brilliance of Depp's character, Dr. Will Caster. A groundbreaking thinker on the subject of artificial intelligence, he delivers deep pronouncements on the skies-the-limit possibilities that can come from the melding of human and computer-generated brain power.
Above all, the movie must establish the relationship between Will and his equally brainy cyber-scientist wife, Evelyn (Rebecca Hall). The key here is the couple's mutual devotion. She's so in love with him that after he's mortally wounded she insists on squirting his mind into cyberspace because she can't bear to let him go.
Sorry. Not buying it. The problem is Depp and Hall have exactly zero chemistry. Not since the 2010 snorefest "The Tourist" has Depp been party to a pairing so lacking in fizz. There's more credible chemistry between Hall's character and a fellow scientist (Paul Bettany). He's "Transcendence's" conscience, worrying that this brain-uploading business could have dangerous (and all too predictable) consequences.
"Transcendence" traffics in a lot of interesting ideas, but does so in unoriginal ways. Depp's voice from cyberspace, unnaturally calm and faintly godlike in its omniscience, is reminiscent of the cadences of Stanley Kubrick's HAL 9000, while his omnipresent image peering from a multitude of computer screens is very Big Brotherish.
Hovering over everything is "Frankenstein" and its cautionary warning about the perils that arise when science recklessly tampers with the natural order of things. Dr. Frankenstein shrieked "it's alive!" when he animated his unnatural creation. Sadly, "Transcendence" stays moribund from start to finish.

As your skin care facility's business cycle develops and moves from phase to phase, following a business plan, taking control of your time, setting up sound business practices and hiring the right people are the keys to success.
Owning or managing a skin care business during any growth phase is very challenging and can be very stressful—especially a low-margin business. Many owners and managers find themselves working long hours, performing low-income tasks, and making only modest incomes or having only a small impact on revenues. Why does this happen? This article outlines three steps to help you understand the characteristics, problem areas and crisis points associated with each growth phase of a business cycle, and the key areas that must be addressed to strengthen a business and move forward.
From two-room skin care practices to 10 or 20 room day or resort spas, understanding the growth phases of a business cycle and where your spa business currently is in that cycle is key to identifying the characteristics, problem areas and crisis areas that must be addressed to operate your business efficiently, let it mature to the next growth phase and implement successful spa thinking. The growth phases of a business cycle are as follows.
A business headed toward the end of its maturity cycle has two choices: decline or revitalize. To best evaluate the position of a skin care facility, the overall client and community perception of the business must be examined. Is the perception "Spa X used to be ..." or is it "Spa X always has something new, unique and …".

The CBI, the UK's main business group, has called for a number of changes to energy policy. Efficiency, grid investment, faster planning processes and support for low-carbon investment are all on the list. But it's their calls for reduction in expected wind power growth that have gained the most attention. The report, which uses modelling from McKinsey, draws a 'business as usual' scenario, in which wind accounts for 24 per cent of the generation mix, and a 'balanced' scenario where it makes up 20 per cent. (Click the image below to view details of the scenarios).
The primary argument is that the government's slow and inadequate support for CCS and nuclear means the UK will spend more than is necessary to reach its targets, and end up with expensive energy supplies and difficulty meeting its later goals for 2030 and 2050.

Given the ever-growing, cross-platform nature of ESPN's operations, it seems like a daunting task for the organization to create a viable workflow for corrections. (After all, The Washington Post was unable to effectively manage its corrections process, and it mainly has to worry abut web and print.) So what's ESPN's secret?
Step one was having senior people like Stiegman involved in the creation and internal promotion of the corrections process and procedures. That set the tone and told people, "This is important."
The organization also benefits from a centralized editorial workflow that enables it to feed consistent information and reporting across multiple platforms. This ensures corrections get to the right place.
Apart from that, two senior editors are responsible for receiving and investigating any corrections requests submitted by the ESPN community. They write and publish corrections, and distribute them through the centralized news desk to make sure they end up wherever the error first appeared.
"We get a steady flow of submissions from our audience," Stiegman said. "When we first launched with the corrections page, we got a big uptick. Probably now we get twenty-five or so submissions a week, and of those probably less than five on average are things we feel were incorrect. A lot of submissions for corrections are people who are challenging commentary."
ESPN also uses an internal database to track of correction requests and any resulting fixes.
"I have a master database … and I have the ability to track and know exactly how many corrections are run by platform, by show, by section of the website," he said.
Yes, it's quite the corrections operation. I asked Stiegman if he thinks his colleagues at ABC News should follow the lead of the sports guys and get serious about corrections.
"I would tell each entity its their choice of how to handle it for their organization," he said, not taking my bait, "but in a macro sense, I do think being more transparent is better than not."
Correction of the Week
"Daryush Parsi's support for women's tennis player Aravane Rezai, whom he first saw play at the 2010 U.S. Open, is based on their shared Iranian heritage. An item in the Sept. 1 Open Racket column about fans who seek to become suitors incorrectly included Mr. Parsi, who is married, and incorrectly implied his motivation for giving the player a T-shirt." – The Wall Street Journal

I am an integrative molecular ecologist, broadly interested in the evolutionary forces driving population differentiation and dynamics within mosaic landscapes. In particular, I am interested in the effects of ecological barriers in the absence of physical barriers, and their subsequent effect on population genetic structure within both vertebrate and invertebrate systems. I am interested in the impact factors relating to global change (i.e. habitat fragmentation, land use change, range shifts due to climatic change, human-mediated movement of invasive species) have on the distribution, genetic diversity, and genetic differentiation of native and introduced vertebrate and invertebrate species.
I am also interested in the use of molecular markers to understand the evolution of reproductive life-histories. This includes the evolution of alternate reproductive strategies in reptiles (primarily parthenogenesis and long-term sperm storage), their distribution within the phylogeny of snakes, understanding reproductive success and parentage within natural populations, and also the evolution and importance of polyandry in vertebrate and invertebrate populations.
My research to date has spanned a broad evolutionary hierarchy ranging from the resolution of phylogenetic relationships within taxa, the determination of patterns of phylogeographic and population genetic structure within species, the elucidation of breeding systems, and the determination of genetic relatedness among individuals within populations. My research involves the development (using next generation systems) and application of molecular tools/techniques, particularly microsatellite DNA profiling, in addition to RFLP and sequencing of both mtDNA and nuclear genes.

I have roughly 80-90 days of mostly reliable growing time left. is there a good bean I can put in the ground now and be able to harvest before the cold weather comes in? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sandhill has "Red Peanut: 50 days. Super early and productive, old-fashioned string-type bean, small pinkish seeded, pods turn red at maturity. 1 oz. Pkt. - 1 Pkt./$1.75; 2 Pkts./$3.25" It's an enthusiastic climber and yields much better when given a trellis. In advance of planting seeds, I'd prepare the ground thoroughly: dig deeply to cut out all competing roots, compost and fertilize approporately, and water, so when you plant seeds, the soil is well hydrated one foot down. Also have mulch on hand, plus build a fence against the usual suspects: rabbits and woodchucks, if they are around where you garden. For other suggestions vis-ŕ-vis beans to grow, you could ask your question of Bill Best, Sustainable Mountain Agriculture Center (SMAC), Berea, KY. In their large collection of old family heirlooms, you may find an interesting bean that fits the bill. Best of luck, and let us know which bean(s) you choose and how the project pans out. |
Yes. We'd love to hear what you choose and how it works out. George |
The answer depends upon the way the beans will be used. For bush snaps, which typically take 50-60 days, virtually any variety should make it. Some of the earlier Romano-type pole beans, such as "Early Riser" & "Goldmarie", also have a DTM around 50 days. The earliest large shellies I've grown were the pole varieties "Goose" (a.k.a. "Ma Williams") and "Chester" (a.k.a. "Flagg"), and a bush variety that I obtained from the USDA. These produced shellies in 75-80 days. There are bush varieties offered commercially which I have not grown, such as "Coco Rubico" and "Vermont Cranberry" (both offered by Vermont Bean) that have listed DTMs of 60-70 days in the shell stage. Provided that you can get the seed quickly, you have a good chance of getting shellies from these. Dry beans typically take 85-90 days, so they would be a real stretch this late in the season. "Calypso" is one of the earliest I've grown, it might make it. |

Verified Purchase
What a joy this pen is to draw with. The nib flows smoothly over the page and
responds to even subtle pressure by varying the line width. I recomend getting
the converter to use with it because it comes with a refill cartridge only. The
converter is extra, but once you have it it works beautifully and then you can
chose your ink. It is a pricy pen, well made and will last for a long time, a
lifetime, perhaps, if you take care of it. So think of the price spread out over
many years and it doesn't seem so extravagant. I use it for drawing exclusively
and find it especially nice for drawing figures. I can build the darks up with
pressure and cross hatching and also use very subtle thin lines by pressing
lightly. I've started carrying it around so I can pull it out to make quick
sketches, and there is no cap to drop or misplace. I feel lucky to have found
this pen.

Not too sure if this is where this should go, but:
I am a really big fan of the only war combat system and the way specialties work and i had a cunning plan i am considering doing a conversion of Dark Heresy: Ascension through to Only war. with the ascended careers as Only War specialties, fine tuning and making them more balanced especially with the improved balances to certain abilities. I've been wanting to get back to GM'ing
My conversion plan includes a modified character creation like below:
1. Home world: obvious character chooses origin.
2. Past Career: the career of the character before they ascended. basically a skill, talent and trait package. probably a fair decent package of choices reflecting the starting level of the character.
3. Ascended Specialty: the new ascended career specialties from crusader through to interrogator, will include starting gear and unique talents and traits.
There will also be background packages and other dark heresy fun. what do you GM's think of this idea? any suggestions, comments or improvements welcome, and will happily publish work if interested when it is written.

Castle Rock gives breathtaking panoramic views over Girraween National Park and is well worth the walk. The track varies from gentle to moderate gradients until the steep climb over exposed granite rocks to the summit. Black cypress, stringybarks and orange gums grow on the rocky ridges and woodlands while yellow box and brown gums provide shade and good birdwatching. Warning: the summit has steep cliffs and potentially slippery surfaces. Keep to the track and supervise children closely.

I want to replace my old Amana bottom-freezer fridge with a French door fridge. It has to fit my old 33" opening. I've heard really good things about the Samsung, but the smaller ones that fit my space don't appear to have adjustable shelves, have 2-4 cu. feet less space than others that will fit my space, and in the one I looked at in Sears (18 cu. feet, I think), the drawers won't open if only one door is opened. There are almost no FD fridges on the floor at Sears that fit my space (and less elsewhere), so I need to rely on incomplete pictures to try to figure out which might work. The Kenmores seem okay - SIL has one - buy my hubby doesn't like that the drawers in the freezer are made of mesh and don't have any sides - he thinks this allows too much cold air to escape. On the Sears website, the GE actually has the highest positive rating (but I never see it talked about elsewhere?). It looks like its shelves are adjustable, and that I can fit what I need in the door. I can't, however, find any picture of the freezer compartment in the GE. Does the icemaker take up a lot of space? (I really don't need an icemaker, but apparently I can't buy a new fridge without one). A couple of reviews say the freezer drawer is hard to open/close and can stick, but other reviews don't mention that, so maybe they had bad luck? How about the finish? I could go with white or black. What is most important is easy to keep clean. If anyone has this GE, could you confirm that you can open one door and still open the drawer on that size? If you've had it a while, how has it held up? Or is there another great FD fridge in this size anyone could recommend? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Does it have to be french door? There are some bottom freezer, single door fridges that would fit your space. |
- Posted by Matryoshka7 (My Page) on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 16:53
I have a single-door bottom freezer there now. The problem is that I have a narrow galley kitchen, so when someone opens the fridge door, no one else can walk through the room (which happens also to connect two parts of the house). A French door would be soooo nice! |
- Posted by nosoccermom (My Page) on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 17:19
I have it for about 1 year. The drawers already cracked on the track they're running on; one was already cracked/piece brokenoff when it came, so I got a new one, which I'm keeping as a spare until the drawer completely breaks. The seal has ripped in the middle. My husband says it's a design flaw and related to opening the doors. You can open the drawer when one door is open, but I think that may have broken the track it's hanging on. happens when you don't open the door all the way. My freezer drawer does not stick, but there's not a whole lot of space in the freezer, and stuff is even harder to find than in a top freezer. The icemaker is about 4" high, 11" wide, same as the similar drawer on the other side. Overall, it looks nice, but actually offers less space than our old top freezer model. You can just open one door, but most of the time, we open both unless we get stuff from inside one door or the upper drawer. Space on the inside of the doors is also cramped. I have the SS. |
- Posted by Matryoshka7 (My Page) on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 18:13
Darn. Is this the model you have? It doesn't show it as coming in SS, so I'm vaguely hoping you have a different model. The pic shows the inside. |

My model is GFSS2HCYCSS. It looks very much like the model you linked to. I remember that there just weren't that many fridges that fit in my space, especially the low height was an issue. |

We have a Kenmore Elite FD CD. Ok , it is 36" so won't fit your space but the freezer drawers are plastic not mesh. One reason we liked this model was the freezer drawers were adjustable allowing for large pans...some brands have fixed dividers. We were told it is made by LG. we've had it for 18 mos...no problems... I like it a lot. |
- Posted by Matryoshka7 (My Page) on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 22:16
Yeah, that's the problem. The bigger/wider ones have things like freezer drawers with sides, and all have drawers you can open with only one door open. Same brands in narrower widths don't necessarily share these features. The Sears guy told me the great majority of the units they sell are the 33" or less size to replace existing fridges, and yet most of the ones on the floor are the wide ones. Most of the narrower ones can only be bought online. Yeesh. |
- Posted by ittybittybungalow (My Page) on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 22:24
Ugh, I feel your pain on not being able to find things in stock, and the right size that you can actually see and touch. When our refrigerator died a few months ago, we ended up with a Kenmore Elite FD - not a counter depth, however. It was one of the few refrigerators actually in stock (anywhere) that could be delivered relatively quickly that would fit. I went to Abt, Home Depot, HH Gregg, Lowes and so forth. The model number is 72303. The width is 32.875" so it may be a bit too tight for your space but wanted to throw it out there. So far we have been pretty impressed. Fruit and vegetables keep so much better than our old trusty refrigerator that we replaced. A few comments: Drawers/bins/shelves are adjustable. The meat/cheese drawer requires you to open both doors in order to access the drawer. This model was made by LG. It did receive a good rating on Consumer Reports. Good luck on your quest. |
- Posted by Matryoshka7 (My Page) on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 23:12
Thank you, that is very helpful. This looks similar to SIL's on the top (and I like her fridge part), but it sounds like it's got the nicer freezer drawers. Hubby is hopeful we can squeeze that in to our space. 1/16" on each side! Could at least be worth a try. It's the same height as current fridge, and 1/4" wider. Does yours have the strip in the middle for an extra seal, or do the doors just butt up against each other (if you know what I mean)? |
Mat - I was hoping the elux would fit but I think they are all 36 inches :-( I know what you mean about the flapper in the middle - I have read a number of reviews that the gasket to gasket leaks over time, so I wanted a flapper. When we wanted to replace our fridge - one of the few that fit was the Elux as our upper cabinets caused problems and we were able to just clear with the Elux. We left a bit of space with our remodel for future fridge size changes. |
- Posted by ittybittybungalow (My Page) on Wed, Jul 3, 13 at 19:04
Our refrigerator has a piece (the length of the door) on the left door which "flips" and seems to serve as an extra seal. I think that is what you mean. When only the left door is open, you can access the crisper drawer. When the right door is open it is not possible to access the other crisper drawer. The Sears website does have a separate document which has all of the measurements - basically the required space needed for installation. Look under the yellow energy guide logo for a blurb that says "This product comes with: Specifications" click on the specifications and the pdf will come up. Feel free to let me know if there are any other questions. |

Hi, cheri, that's a great haul you made there! You know, when I first read your list, I thought, wow, it will be very hard to search on some of those plant names/spellings. Most are close enough, that you'll probably be able to find the plant, but some will be quite puzzling, and the search may not bring up a proper match. 2. Actaea racemosa Hope that helps! Lots of great plants there! |
What a haul, Cheri! Now, where ya gonna put them all?? well.. that's my problem with my own 'haul' anyway :-) So many seeds... so little garden space! And didn't we have a great selection of seeds at the swap? I bet we had more variety then many stores that sell seeds. I'd put us up against Home Depot or Walmart any day! For temp storage (pre-planting), I splurged today, and bought two file boxes to stash my seeds in. My old system (a cake pan and a small box) was running out of room :-) I came home with a couple of 'Tote 'n Go' containers from Staples and large index cards so I could separate the seeds alphabetically and easily find whatever I'm looking for. Even got all the new ones sorted tonight. Now... gotta pull out last years left overs and get them sorted and I'll be all organized! |
I must admit- I came home with more than I had planned to..... But less than what I came with! I still have many hours of home-work looking up information and germination requirements... I thought I was doing well with the two portable file containers I bought to store seeds in this year- one for swapping and one for sowing- but It is a bit of a mess still- shuffeling through all the "d's" for the right digitalis or datura or what ever- and I keep seeing a picture from a post where the gardener had purchased one of those plastic roll-away multi drawer systems. A drawer for sowing, with homemade dividers, all alpha filed- the bit larger drawer for swapping- and the big bottom drawer for seed cleaning, packaging, labeling tools, bubble mailers, postage and germinating info....... All in a single unit that can be easily tucked away when not in use- and organized and tidy when in use! Oh to be so organized!! I swear- every time I pull out the seeds- it is like an explosion throughout the whole area and then some! I do wonder what others do with the seed storage/swapping systems...... I have found a good software sysem for computer filing for seeds and things garden related and what have you- It is called NoteBook from Circus Ponies- It does work well for me- and maybe you too!

Wow Cheri what fun. I to brought home more than I planned to but less than I brought. Now to organize. I can't figure out just how I am going to do that, but I am tired of sorting through trying to find what I want. Julie I checked on that software and am going to download the free trial to try it out. I went to Costco and have my soil, the containers have their holes and now to get markers made and then plant the seeds. Pauline |
whoa Cheri! Watch those Baptisias! The purple gets 2.5-3ft all directions and the white will go 4! *giggle* -Marie |

Thanks for all the corrections, Not offended at all I am not always the most particular and organized but I am practicing.. I have a couple of totes just the right size, made a-z cards for the seed I only have a few of then the ones I have alot of they have there one spot in that section, We'll see what happens once I start sowing... |

The California Highway Patrol confirmed Friday that human remains were found in a truck that wound up in a ravine off Painted Cave Road in Santa Barbara County.
The truck was owned by a person reported missing in March of 2012, according to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office.
A spokesperson for the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Coroner's Office said it may several weeks to positively identify the remains since the accident did not happen recently.
Deputies in a helicopter flying over the area Thursday spotted the vehicle 300 feet down a cliff in an area of thick brush off Highway 154.

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 Juju loves to cuddle!
Facts about Juju loves to cuddle
- Breed: Chihuahua Mix
- Color: White - With Brown Or Chocolate
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
- ID#: Pom-dolls (Reduced Fee)
Juju loves to cuddle's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Hey its Junebug again. So I've been in my foster home a few weeks now. Man! Do I feel like a whole new dog. I'm so happy now and wag not just my tail but my whole body constantly. I love my foster mom and show her this by jumping into her lap as soon as she gets home and giving her kisses. I even like some of the other dogs here and have started playing with them. The big ones make me nervous but we get along. Psha, the cats I ignore. They think they are SO cool. I'm not sure what these squeaky "toy" things are yet but I'm thinking about trying one out. I'm house and crate trained because seriously do I look like some dumb puppy to you. Anyway, I would still love to find my permanent home so get it touch soon.
Please, you MUSTpaste following link into your browser BEFORE emailing for further information. If you'd like to find out more information about our adoption procedure or to apply for this dog click or paste the following into your browser: http://www.poochesonthemove.net/adoption-infoform.html
Other Pets at Pooches & Purrs Cooperative - Brattleboro
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Juju loves to cuddle, a Brattleboro Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Brattleboro, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Brattleboro.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Brattleboro 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 Brattleboro 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 Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Brattleboro paves the way for another one to be saved.

Ok, I have an Elevation Audio DX 1500.1 amp sitting here that needs to go! The amp looks good with only a few minor marks on the front. You may be able to see them in the pics. The only thing on the amp is it has a clear plexi bottom now and I don't have the original bottom. This obviously doesn't affect the amp in any way and actually would look nice on an inverted install. I have the original box and manual which will be included. I am looking to get $250 +shipping on this. Here are the amps rated specs:
RMS @ 4 Ohm = 700
RMS @ 2 Ohm = 1200
RMS @ 1 Ohm = 1500 (actually does about 2000 at 14.4)
Amp does have a low-pass filter, subsonic filter, and bass boost. Make me an offer!!

'A good move': Southland church leaders react to pope's resignation
BY STEVE METSCH firstname.lastname@example.com February 11, 2013 6:24PM
The Rev. Joseph Noonan at St. Damian Catholic Church in Oak Forest, Illinois, Thursday, January, 12, 2012. | Joseph P. Meier~Sun-Times Media
Updated: March 13, 2013 6:21AM
The Rev. Joe Noonan, pastor of St. Damian Catholic Church in Oak Forest, is happy for Pope Benedict XVI, who announced Monday he will resign on Feb. 28.
Benedict "has served the Church a long time and served it well," Noonan said.
Noonan also is excited because "any time there's a new Pope, most Catholics, and a lot of non-Catholics, are excited about seeing what happens," he said.
The news didn't shock Noonan.
"Bishops normally retire at 75 or shortly thereafter. He deserves to have a retirement. For his sake, I hope he's healthy and is able to enjoy a couple years retirement," he said.
Similar sentiments were shared by others in the Southland.
Sister Kathleen Anne Tait, principal of Marian Catholic High School in Chicago Heights, noted that this is the first papal resignation since 1415.
"But I believe it was a good move on his part," she said. "He recognized that you need all your energy and ability to administer to the Church. I respect his decision."
The Rev. Bill Corcoran, pastor of St. Linus Parish in Oak Lawn, said it took "a great deal of courage and common sense for (Benedict) to realize his health and strength were failing him in what is an incredibly demanding job.
"He was an active pope, traveling the world and publishing three encyclicals," Corcoran said.
The Rev. Ken Fleck, pastor of St. George Church in Tinley Park, said "it's really hard to say" who the next pope will be, noting that Benedict "had the inside track" when he was elected in 2005 because he presided over the College of Cardinals.
Fleck said he wished the new pope could work side by side with Benedict for six to 12 months "to make the transition easier," but he knows it doesn't work that way.
He hopes the new pope comes from South America or Africa, which have growing Catholic populations.
While recent sex abuse scandals have seriously damaged the Church's image, Fleck does not think that played a role in Monday's announcement.
"His health has been failing in the last few years," Fleck said. "I wish John Paul II had done the same thing. He had Parkinson's and Alzheimer's and he should have resigned a couple years before he died.
"I'm glad that this pope is taking that step. It shows real courage and a trust in the Holy Spirit."
Noonan agreed that it would be "a wonderful thing if the next Pope comes from one of the more populated Catholic countries" in South American, Central America, Africa or Asia, he said.
Corcoran hopes for a younger man "who is very pastoral and listens well," he said.
"That job has huge demands and responsibility. Attendance at churches is down worldwide and across all denominations. We need someone to spread the Gospel, someone who can draw people in and engage them," Corcoran said.
Tait wants to see a pope who "is in touch with the people of God;" has the vitality of the globe-trotting Pope John Paul II, who served from 1978 to 2005; and the general appeal of Pope John XXIII, who served from 1958 to 1963 and "reinvigorated the Church," she said.
Fleck said no American will be elected.
"To invest the most powerful position in the Catholic Church with someone from the most powerful nation in the world would not sit right," he said.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Governor Chafee has released a 300-page model school safety plan that incorporates new legislative requirements into a guide for creating better schools.
The plan is based on legislation introduced last year by Rep. Joseph M. McNamara, chairman of the House Committee on Health, Education and Welfare, and Sen. Hanna M. Gallo, D-Cranston, chairwoman of the Senate Education Committee, on Chafee's behalf.
The model plan was signed into law by Chafee in July. It requires school districts to work with local police and fire departments and the Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency (RIEMA) to conduct school-safety assessments and create emergency plans.
The new resource includes an emergency planning guide and two FEMA publications on how to develop high-quality emergency operations for grades K-12 and for colleges.
The plan was developed in collaboration with the state Department of Education, RIEMA, the state police, the state fire marshal's office and other agencies.
School committees are now required on an annual basis to update safety and emergency plans. By Dec. 13 of each year, the state education commissioner must present a safety assessment to the General Assembly.
A crisis team from the state Department of Behavioral Healthcare, Developmental Disabilities and Hospitals is available to work with students and staff on a variety of health and safety issues, including trauma, student mental health and grief counseling.
McNamara, D-Warwick, said the legislation he sponsored is designed to ensure that "we are regularly monitoring our procedures, constantly improving them where we can and making certain that all lines of communication among the schools and various state agencies are open and working toward a common goal of keeping our schools safe and secure."
Education Commissioner Deborah A. Gist said that the tragedy a year ago in Newtown, Conn., prompted her agency to partner with RIEMA to review all current school safety plans and to develop a model one that districts can modify or adopt.
"Through these documents," Chafee said, "we are taking vital steps to safeguard our children and ensure that the communities where they live are properly protected."

The arch-enemies of the Goth Kids and the Vampire Kids, no clique at South Park Elementary is more feared and annoying than the Emo Kids. Besides listening to similar music, having similar interests, a shared love of black, nihilism, and cutting, and 'misunderstood' hypocrisy in general, the three groups have totally nothing in common. A popular episode of Yes, I Was Scared featuring Janitor Howard J. Flannigan featured the janitor helping the Emo King, the leader of a colony of plants, to take over human bodies... only for it to be a huge prank.Henrietta Biggle, Firkle and Sarah Collins are all briefly converted after attending a camp for troubled kids.
