I didn't realize dragging a grading region grip or adding a transition was stupid. Now I know what's been my problem all along!
I apologize for high-jacking this thread. Please speak to the grading stability in the following thread.
Was that intended to be snark Neil, or are you trying to be insulting?
To Answer PDX271 "
"How long ago was the benckmark test?"
It may have been 2 to 3 yrs ago, Both GEOPAK and InRoads far outscored C3D... Interestingly as far as you think C3D has come in those 3 yrs, the last Benchmark where they competed by themselves there score was virtually the same.
If you search hard enough on the web you can find this information
Bill...Been busy, sorry I missed you at the MNDOT Survey Conference up here iat breezy Point... Im sure you would have liked to see my Civil select series 3 preview... Incidently, Microstation SS3 was released yesterday, I know you all were looking forward to working with your 2012 C3D drawings in a stable platform (Microstation)
All the best

No offense intended but I take exception to your comment about grading. Apparently they work well for some but not others. I don't think it is due to stupidity on the part of the users. Gradings still have problems.
Is this deja vu? Starting to remind me of Eagle point a few years ago! Mike the light at the end of the tunnel is actually the light on the front of the C3D locomotive!
Mike even if worst case Bentley is able to hold on to the remaining DOT market we still have just about everything else in the Government field! Circle the wagons Mike! In a couple weeks we move the bar up again with 2013! Competition is good, fair competition is better!
How fast can you design an intersection?
Still havn't answer my "how many weeks/months of training is necessary!", how many local colleges teach Geopak.... so many foolish questions we have!
Bill Neuhauser P.E.
Intersection using new civil cells... about 15 seconds... send me you email Ill send you a video.
Maybe you want to talk parking lots... or storm basins... site design in general, and hey surveyors up keep telling me C3D is not handling us survey feet correctly.. (Sinc can you comment ?)...
And Bill your leaving out all the major engineering firms in the country using our software on every major infrastructure project... what software was really used for Zoo Park ?
Nice marketing... Funny no road designs in the "Lead the way marketing video"
Will this mean yet another file format change for C3D? MicroStation SS3 uses the same V8 format put in place 12 years ago.

Cool shoots Hanz, they look so otherworldly, each more than the other. Thanks for shots I'd never otherwise get to see. |

Ryan, Your nurturing is paying off - have you considered llamas? |
- Posted by squishyplant 10 (My Page) on Sat, Dec 17, 11 at 11:16
Amazing! You've got them coming out of your ears!! Definitely have your work cut out for you when it comes time to transplant. Beautiful photography and colors. I haven't ventured into the realm of seed sowing just yet but this just looks like so much fun. I just collected seed from my Frailea mammifera, maybe I'll give it a go. What are your germination methods? (if you don't mind revealing your secrets) Matthew |
Ryan, This is great...I ordered seeds also. I think maybe a couple hundred.waiting until the weather gets alittle warmer to start them.. I hope I have as much luck with mine as you have.between you and Rian, I am venturing into another zone.thanks for sharing Sharon |
Hey everybody! Thanks for all the responses. I'm always glad to share progress, would do it more if I had more time. Jeff, I'm more of an alpaca guy, myself. They come in different colors. Matthew, I did a bunch of research in the months leading up to sowing. The best info I can recommend is from Steven Hammer which I will link below. I also watched some Youtube videos showing people planting seeds, not in English. I happen to live in a prime location for these plants so I don't have to worry about cold weather. My greenhouse is 40% shade with full airflow. Sharon, Good luck with those seeds, it's been a great experience so far. Mr Brack at Mesa told me the ideal time for planting is early September for most Mesembs. If you're growing indoors, that may not matter. thanks, |
Here is a link that might be useful: Meet My Future Self
Just found this post. Sooooo very cute those little baby seedlings are. It has been some time now since this post. So do you have an update of how they look now. I googled Cheiridopsis peculiaris to find this post. I just purchased one and was looking for info on it. Looks like the seed did well to sprout for you. Did these guys make it? |
Super-duper. Can't wait to see the shots. I am a chicken to try seeds even though I have some cono seeds waiting for me to sow. So I will live and learn off of you vicariously. :-) But I REALLY do want to do this. It just seems like I don't have something (the right secret mix) that I need or that it's the wrong time of the year or......etc. Sheesh. I need to get my butt in gear. |

Very good growth and colours. You should be very happy with the results so far. |
Thanks, Rian. I am happy so far. I've learned so much in this process. All of the seedlings from the first year are really showing character now. It's a long process but such a sweet payoff! |
- Posted by Beachplants Z11 (My Page) on Sun, Feb 17, 13 at 1:41
Let me put it like this, you have 2 plants, precisely the same, looking the same - one you grew from seed the other you bought, both flower, which is the more special? There is another great and unequalled advantage, you see variations, normally not available from a store bought plant, so more understanding and you learn much more about how to grow them this way! I think both of us can really recommend doing this for its value. |
- Posted by norma_2006 10 CA U. (My Page) on Sun, Feb 17, 13 at 2:01
The only time I was able to grow them from seed is when I didn't mean to. If I tried I couldn't repeat my first accidental success. Which is a long story, Norma |
Nice job Ryan. Thanks for the update. It must be very rewarding to watch them grow up. Ha! Did you sow any conos? I don't see any shots of them? |
Hey! Really nice to hear from you, Norma! You are an inspiration. Thanks Reggie, I did sow lots of Conos my first year. I was largely unsuccessful. Out of... let me get out the old seed list... out of 57 species/varieties sown including Ophthalmophyllum... let me consult the plant list... I have 36 species that made it. 21 of those only produced 1 or 2 plants, not enough for a good comparison or good breeding. 15 of them are in fair numbers but only about 5/57 are a real success. I had even worse results with Dinteranthus. Out of 600 seeds sown I only have 2 seedlings to show for it. Oh well. I expect to have better results with them this year. I'll try to post something about Cono seedlings later this week if I can. |
- Posted by Beachplants Z11 (My Page) on Mon, Feb 18, 13 at 8:46
I told you Dinteranthus are my bogey specie! Glad to have a friend - they rot easily! I have good germination last year for once and then well other things happened and I lost a little control and ..... none! |
These are stunning. I have never seen the Cheiridopsis peculiaris until these photos. Do you sell these, Ryan? I'd love to buy a couple of those! |
Rian, this year is going to be the year we conquer Dinteranthus! Hi Sugi, I'm glad you are interested. That's what we do here, we get each other excited about plants.

Benjamin Walker Maintains a Straight Face for 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'
Features By Jack Giroux on June 22, 2012 | Be the First To Comment"The joke ends in the title" has been a popular selling point for the makers of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Now, with the film out in the world, there will inevitably be question over that statement. However, what no one can question is the all-out seriousness the cast and director Timur Bekmambetov took Seth Grahame-Smith's material. There is no 21st century irony in sight here. Namely, there's the lead of the film – Benjamin Walker, who goes as straight-faced as one can in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. No matter how ridiculous the situation – Lincoln running on top of horses or, you know, killing vampires – Walker never winks or smirks at the silliness. Here's what Benjamin Walker had to say about the melancholic superhero nature of Abraham Lincoln, adjusting to makeup, and how the film is a Lincoln biopic which just so happens to have blood-thirsty vampires roaming around:
Review: Better Than Expected, 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter' Is Still Bloody Hard to Take Seriously
Movie Reviews By Robert Levin on June 21, 2012 | Be the First To CommentIt's hard to imagine how Abraham Lincoln could loom larger in the American mythos, but Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter appears to have found an answer. After all, what could compare with the awesome legacy of saving the Union and emancipating the slaves quite like prolifically slaying the undead on your downtime? Timur Bekmambetov's adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's mash-up novel (the author also wrote the screenplay) offers a vision of Honest Abe (Benjamin Walker) as an avenger hellbent on the destruction of bloodsucker bigwig Adam (Rufus Sewell) and the rest of his kind after vampire Jack Barts (Marton Csokas) murders Lincoln's mother with just one bite. The movie cleverly reworks both the familiar events of the 16th President's life and some broader archetypal period moments, and Grahame-Smith and Bekmambetov stick closer to the historical record than you'd think. When he's not studying the law or romancing Mary Todd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) in Springfield, Lincoln is serially, secretly disposing of hidden vampires. His close companion Joshua Speed (Jimmi Simpson) aids him on his otherworldly mission. Jefferson Davis recruits the undead to the Confederate Army. The tragic 1862 death of Willie Lincoln is given a fresh spin.
Timur Bekmambetov Again Blends Reality and Fantasy with 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'
Features By Jack Giroux on June 20, 2012 | Be the First To Comment"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" is not the most cinematic of books. If Seth Grahame-Smith's novel was a completely faithful adaptation, it'd make for a ten-hour movie. In its translation to the big screen, the story has been stripped down to a two-hour, atmospheric, and violent 3D actioner. The director who took on the challenge of bringing Smith's tonally tricky novel is Timur Bekmambetov, the filmmaker behind Night Watch, Day Watch, and Wanted. Like his previous films, Bekmambetov once again blends both fantasy and reality with his Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. He plays with more than a few fantastical and silly ideas, but always keeps them attached to the real world. This time around, though, Bekmambetov gets to capture that style of his with 3D. Here is what Timur Bekmambetov had to say about the power of 3D, how free dreaming and character informs his visuals, and why Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is his Dusk Watch:
'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter' Red Band Trailer Shows Honest Abe Getting Down and Dirty (and Bloody)
Movie Trailers By Jack Giroux on May 24, 2012 | Comments (3)Poor 'lil Stevie Spielberg. Come Oscar season he may have a tough act to follow with his Daniel Day Lewis-starring Lincoln pic, the one which probably won't feature Lincoln's finest achievements: chopping off vampire heads, marrying Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and getting Anthony Mackie to somehow be your sidekick. All in all, that's quite the life, as this bloody red band trailer for Timur Bekmambetov's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter shows. Check out Abraham Lincoln acting like a "mad man":
Seth Grahame-Smith Wants Your Summer to Be Bloodier (and More Gothic)
Features By Jack Giroux on April 26, 2012 | Comments (7)Dark Shadows and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter don't fit the bill of your average summer blockbuster. An adaptation of a slightly obscure soap opera about a vampire? We don't see those often enough in the summer season. A hard-R actioner featuring one of our greatest presidents shredding vampires to bits? That's another unheard of type summer tentpole. Although Tim Burton and Johnny Depp's names alone can create money out of thin air, Dark Shadows is not the sort of film we often see as a May release, and the same goes for June's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. The man partly responsible for these two going-against-the-norm pictures is author/screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith. Grahame-Smith had to tackle some difficult tasks when it came to making these two projects – like making an accessible Dark Shadows film and adapting his own epic and tonally tricky novel, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Here's what Seth Grahame-Smith had to say about writing for the screen, the soap-operatic tone of Dark Shadows, and the straight-faced badassery of Abraham Lincoln slaying vampires:
'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter' Trailer Shows Us the Non-Boring Side of Abe's History
Movie News By Jack Giroux on February 13, 2012 | Comments (3)Unlike our own Kate Erbland, I don't loathe Seth Grahame-Smith's writing with every fiber of my body. In fact, I quite like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, a book that's less tongue-in-cheek than you'd expect. Tonally, it's challenging material. And based on this first trailer for the book's cinematic adaptation, it's slightly difficult to tell which way the film's going to go. This could either be another Van Helsing or (probably) something we haven't quite seen before. If one thing's for sure, director Timur Bekmambetov has nailed the atmosphere of the book. The director's got a great eye, so it's no surprise this trailer has visual ass-kicking going for it. Take a look at Abe kicking some unholy arse:
Alex Proyas' Hugely Ambitious 'Paradise Lost' Gets Its Wings Clipped, Project Reportedly Cancelled
Movie News By Kate Erbland on February 9, 2012 | Be the First To CommentNever let it be said that director Alex Proyas didn't have a tremendous vision for his big screen adaptation of John Milton's epic poem of the same name, but that same ambition appears to be what has sunk Paradise Lost for good. Reports are now coming in from various outlets that the project, with a huge budget that already exceeded $120m and a vision that included technology that, as Variety's Jeff Sneider puts it, "wasn't there," has been killed by Legendary Pictures. Proyas was hired for the gig back in September of 2010 and, since then, had gathered an impressive and up-and-coming cast for the epic tale of angelic battles, including Bradley Cooper, Benjamin Walker, Casey Affleck, Djimon Hounsou, Diego González Boneta, and Camilla Belle. The film's shooting schedule was already moved from January to early this summer, but that's all moot now that the film has been scrapped entirely.
Benjamin Walker Will Do Battle as Archangel Michael in 'Paradise Lost'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on August 4, 2011 | Comments (1)When it was first announced that Dark City director Alex Proyas was doing an adaptation of the epic John Milton poem "Paradise Lost", it was rumored that he would be turning the work into an action movie. That seemed a little ridiculous, as "Paradise Lost" is mostly known as a dry, academic tome that students dread slogging through, and while he's made movies with strong action elements before like The Crow, Proyas usually sticks to headier conceits than big battle sequences. Surely it can't be true that Proyas is involving himself with something being described as 300 meets Lord of the Rings, is he? After talking to Deadline Hebron, the director has made the nature of this project a bit more clear. "It's not just armies battling in an epic war," says Proyas. "This is an adventure about the origins of good and evil after Lucifer's rebellion gets him cast out of Heaven and leads to a struggle with his brother archangel over the soul of mankind, starting with Adam and Eve. That is the scope of the narrative here, and we've tried to say as faithful as possible to Milton's text, particularly its focus on Lucifer's evolution and the birth of evil." He goes on to say that, "It's a family saga, about a group of brothers, two in particular, who are on divergent paths, and Lucifer's feelings of betrayal by his father and family that forge his descent into evil." If that's the case, then it seems that […]
The Week That Was: Cutting Out All Your Curse Words

It's becoming increasingly easy to put this very column together. New writers and very soon, we'll have some new columns to tout.

Benjamin Walker Is Abraham Lincoln, If Abraham Lincoln Hunted Vampires (Which He Did)
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on January 28, 2011 | Comments (1)Before Seth Grahame-Smith's groundbreaking biography "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" became all of the rage, the world was tragically clueless about the undead-destroying exploits of our 16th president. American school children are taught about the Emancipation Proclamation, they memorize lines from the Gettysburg Address; but they tragically never understand why. Just like elementary classrooms are reticent to include Chomsky in their standard curriculums, they have also shown to be reluctant to reveal to grade-schoolers the unfortunate reality that vampires are real, and that their blood sucking atrocities had a profound effect on the development and presidency of one of our greatest leaders. Fortunately, Hollywood is not as chained to the whims of conservative fundamentalist groups as our nation's textbook makers are. So, Russian director Timur Bekmambetov has been tapped to direct a big screen adaptation of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. You may know Bekmambetov as the director of the Night Watch and Day Watch vampire franchise already, and if you don't then clearly you haven't been paying enough attention to vampires. It's a wonder you still have all of your blood. Long have they searched for the perfect actor to portray Lincoln in this epic tale; one that spans the president's life from ages 20 to 55. Many have tested, and many have failed. In the end, all of their efforts have come down to one man: some guy. That guy is actor Benjamin Walker. You may recognize him from such films as Flags of Our Fathers and Kinsey, but chances […]

scale insect
scale insect
Any member of several families of sap-sucking insects (order Homoptera) whose bodies are covered by a waxy shell (the scale). The eggs are protected by the female's body or scale or a waxy filamentous mass. Scale insects may attack any part of a plant, but each species is host-specific. Many species are serious plant pests; others have commercial value. The lac insect is used in a red dye and in shellac. Cochineal, a red dyestuff, consists of the dried, pulverized bodies of females of the species Dactylopius coccus. See also cottony-cushion scale, San Jose scale.

In my post about my first 100 hostas one of them is called Scugog Rising Star about which Jan asked. This leads me to the question, how information is too much information and can be considered advertising? Below is a copy of the post to Jan but I thought it should have a separate thread so this question can be addressed. I have read some comments on here regarding advertising so I am not sure about the protocol about mentioning particular places.
Could someone advise me what the 'rules' are about this? Thanks,

well I'm no moderator or know the rule technically... but I would say if the name is Lakeside Paisley Print... you call it Lakeside Paisley Print... I think the general no no's is pretty much down to improperly bashing somebody's business... without due cause.. which is always a big debate whether or not someone went to the right lengths to make sure that business was actually wrong and then went to the same lengths to help the business make things right... we're all human... we all make mistakes... its okay to say big box stores... and mention lowes, walmart etc... because we all know that anyways... and mention how risky it is to buy hostas from BB stores because of HVX and nems...I would think... but getting on here and going off about getting nems from "fancy hosta farm number 1" without even contacting the nursery... would be far from fair for the nursery's reputation in the hosta community.. Another big no no... would of course be advertising for yourself or friends... I would think it would be okay for a mention of maybe selling some of your stock on ebay... maybe indirectly in a post or what not... but flat out advertising your own business is spam... and could very well get out of hand here... I would think praising a nursery... like we all do with Naylor Creek and Hallsons... is just plain enabling... the more we praise the good ones... the better chance the bad ones will get better or go away...

what steve basically said ... but as usual .. i will phrase it my way ... you.. personally .... can NOT do business here.. you are allowed to tell us where you got it.. and provide opinion about them and the plant ... one thing that really irritates me.. is when some novice.. we barely ever heard from before .. screws up absolutely everything with a plant.. and then.. come in here blistering a favored provider ... prior to any kind of option for the seller to make things straight ... that is not opinion .. that is 'flaming' someone ... being in canada.. and having so few options for nurseries.. i dont have a problem with you mentioning a favorite ... that is opinion ... but if you get carried away.. and become a saleswomen for them.. then it would bug me.. and violates the spirit of GW ... basically .. i dont come here for that.. it would be like you were a door to door salesman ... and i dont like the intrusion ... in your pic.. i doubt that streak will be back.. but you never know .. ken |

NEMO Arms [TI]ONE Titanium .308 Rifle
Talk about a statement. NEMO Arms has released a titanium AR chambered in .308.
The new rifle is more than just a spectacle though, it's quite the feat of engineering. Titanium is one of the most difficult metals to work with and as such creates an expensive manufacturing process. Retailing at $95,904 it's safe to say the [TI]ONE is not for your average gun owners.
That doesn't mean the rest of us can't gawk.
The build features a matched titanium receiver set, titanium customizable tube handguard, titanium picatinny rails, titanium low-pro gas block, titanium charging handle, titanium DRK compensator, titanium buffer tube, titanium bolt carrier. That's a lot of titanium.
On top of all this titanium the build features some products that are highly desired in the AR community, such as a 4 lb. Timney trigger and a 6×48 Trijicon ACOG.
The final thing the [TI]ONE really has going for it are its striking aesthetics. It turns out that titanium is shiny and that makes for a pretty unique looking rifle. The 1/10 Twist 416 Stainless Barrel is a black nitride finish and even the bolt is nickel boron coated.
Most of us aren't ready to fork over 95,000 for a rifle, but it doesn't mean we can't stop to appreciate an engineering marvel.

Fight fire with fire!

Inflammation is behind many of today's most dangerous health conditions – learn how "spicy" Curcumin can help put out the fire.
Inflammation is the body's natural defense against injuries and invading pathogens. The body uses a combination of heightened body temperature, free radicals, proteins and powerful macrophage cells to attack internal dangers and promote healing. And now for the bad news…
While inflammation is an evolutionary development that has helped humans survive and adapt, it is a double edged sword. Aging reduces our ability to regulate our inflammatory reactions; when aging is combined with a diet high in unhealthy fats and sugars, exposure to free radicals via environmental toxins, obesity and an inactive lifestyle, inflammation can become systemic or chronic. Our body begins to attack its own nerves and organs leading to degenerative disease.
In fact, the health conditions related to systemic inflammation reads like a "who's-who" of today's fastest rising and most debilitating diseases including arthritis and cardiovascular issues.
In looking for safe, natural ways to help reduce the effects of systemic inflammation, one particular culinary spice is gaining much attention. Curcumin, the pigment that gives the fiery Indian dish curry its signature yellow colour, has a long tradition of anti-inflammatory use and a present and future use as one of the most research-backed nutraceuticals on the market. There have been over 2,400 scientific reviews of Curcumin, many showing its potential as an anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, antiviral, immunemodulator and cholesterol lowering nutrient.
Although Curcumin clearly has tremendous potential for overall health due to its anti-inflammatory properties, its poor absorbability has been a challenge. It is estimated that as much as 75% of Curcumin is directly excreted after ingestion. New research suggests that a patented complex of Curcumin with phosphatidylcholine improved blood levels of curcumonoids by 20 times over standard turmeric extracts and even higher levels in the liver. More absorption means better anti-inflammatory effectiveness.
Whether you are suffering from the common inflammatory disease of osteoarthritis, or want help in preventing some of today's other major health conditions, Curcumin can be a useful partner in putting out the inflammatory fire.

Make plans for my Fullerton family history book. Use Personal Historian 2 to help organise the story structure.Writing the history of the Fullerton family has been a goal of mine since I first started researching the family in 2004. Many, many, people have helped me and contributed information over the years, including the 130 descendants who came to the Fullerton reunion in October 2010. It is hard to believe that it is nearly 10 years since I started researching and over two years since the family reunion. I have found myself a little overwhelmed by all the family history data I have collected over those years for the Fullertons and for my other ancestral families. Distractions, other life issues outside of genealogy, and the enormous scale of my disorganisation (which I have written about many times on this blog) have caused me to procrastinate about the actual task of writing.
I've read the books on writing family histories; I've created a detailed timeline; I've entered all the Fullerton data into my genealogy software with source citations; I've tagged hundreds of articles on Trove; I've even written up a chapter plan - but I still don't have the family history I committed to write. I feel disappointed every time I think of it. I've been trying to chip away little by little at my disorganised data collection for the past two years, and I hope I have had some success. However, there is still a way to go.
I've decided I'm not going to let my ongoing organisation tasks stop me from actually starting to write. All the books I've read make it clear that you should write as you research because that helps you to see the gaps in your research and see where you can 'fill in the holes'. I know there is huge potential for more archival and library research but, to be honest, I have put that part of my genealogy hobby aside for the past two years due in part to my disorganisation, but mostly due to other issues in my life. I want to change that. I want 2013 to be different. I want this to be the year I actually start to meet some of my long term goals.
With all of this in mind, I have decided to take up the 28 Day Family History Writing Challenge from the 1st until the 28th of February this year. I will commit to writing 500 words a day for my Fullerton family history. During February I will blog occasionally to keep you all up-to-date with my progress.

Final polling released ahead of today's primary vote in South Carolina shows Newt Gingrich leading Mitt Romney 40 to 26. Two weeks ago those numbers were nearly reversed, with Romney ahead 37 to 24, and the conventional wisdom was that Romney was poised to wrap up the nomination early.
That was before Newt Gingrich went full-on racist, and the traditional campaign model of presenting your plans for the country has now almost entirely evaporated from the Gingrich campaign and has been replaced by an insufferable reinforcement of existing voter prejudices.
What began with vague statements that poor children should work as janitors, followed by comments Gingrich made about blacks demanding paychecks instead of food stamps, culminated in putting Fox News contributor Juan Williams "in his place," as one Gingrich supporter put it. The following day, Newt said work is a "strange" and "distant" concept to Juan Williams. Ya' know, because he's black. Wink. Nod.
Ever since Gingrich's petulance during the past week's GOP debates, his rise in the polls has been irreversible. Even an accusation from Newt's former wife, Marianne Gingrich, that he requested an open marriage and cheated on her in her own bed was not enough to stop Newt's racist momentum, and this momentum could carry him to victory in other southern states.
It seems likely Mitt Romney will still end up as the Republican nominee for president, however Gingrich could isolate the southern vote if other states in the region prove to be as receptive to Newt's dog-whistling as South Carolina has been. And if that is the case, Mitt Romney could be the weakest nominee for president we've seen in decades.
Then again, if Team Romney doesn't produce a better explanation for his shady financial record, off-shored wealth, and pathological flip-flopping in the very near future, he may not be the nominee. Newt's success today on the back of the southern strategy may give the impression to future primary voters that there is an alternative.

This is a painting of Green Tara (Drolma Jangu in Tibetan). Tara is a Bodhisattva, a Buddha who has agreed to stay and help sentient beings as they work themselves out of Samsara, or suffering. Well, that's the short version. I think of Tara often and pray that her mantra always be on the tip of my tongue. But Buddhist prayer isn't so much about supplication but rather a request for blessing for us to emulate and generate the good qualities of that particular Buddha, Bodhisattva or holy being. While they do have the capability to do anything (the way we'd see a worldly god/dess be able to influence the everyday happenings in the lives of sentient beings) they more often (I think) influence us when we meditate and reflect on their qualities and abilities.
Green Tara is the Bodhisattva of swift action. When you call Her, She comes. When you think of Her, She appears. Her actions are compassionate and always for the best. She cares for all sentient beings without discrimination. These are qualities that are worthy of emulation. And so we think of her, and we try to be like her, to be of benefit to others.
There is a prayer that is the Praises to the 21 Taras... it is a prayer/recitation practice that calls on the 21 different Taras (all of which are purposeful emanations of the primary Tara, pictured above) and a practice of which I'm very fond. I'd like to undertake a more studious look at the text and I thought I might do that by writing about each of the stanzas of the Praise one by one here.
There are a couple different versions available in English. You can find a .pdf version on the FPMT site HERE.
And here are the texts I'll be referencing:
Tara's Enlightened Activity by Khenchen Palden Sherab and Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal
How to Free Your Mind: Tara the Liberator by Ven. Thubten Chodron
In Praise of Tara: Songs to the Saviouress by Martin Wilson
The Practice of Green Tara by Ven. Bardor Tulku Rinpoche
It should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway...I am NOT a teacher and I know very little. I am merely a student of the Buddhas who wants earnestly to understand the Teachings. I only hope that we can share a dialogue as we learn together.
**New here? Please click the name of Tara to jump to the wikipedia page to learn the basics of who She is. It's wikipedia, so take it with a grain of salt. If you have any additional questions, you can always leave them in the comments, or email me: returntorural at gmail dot com

Ciaran, I've talked with the pkgcore people and they don't use the EAPI's (or PMS) in the first place. This essentially leaves you writing documents you're requiring for paludis support. As this seems to be mostly a PM issue, it should be taken elsewhere. To that end, here is a gentoo-portage-dev mailing list that is more appropriate for minor process issues such as those brought up below. I think that ending this discussion here and moving it over to a forum more appropriate to package manager development would reduce the temperature around your proposals and get them implemented (as Zac seems willing to do so). While I realize this is a general purpose mailing list, it is general purpose, and there is a mailing list specifically for portage development. Andrew Ciaran McCreesh wrote: > *SNIP*

Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has once again tackled the subject of his reputation amongst gamers.
The executive is something of a polarising figure who's generally perceived to be disliked by core gamers for wanting to 'take the fun out of game development' and raise software prices.
And while he has previously acknowledged that his sometimes controversial comments and "commitment to excellence" can make him "come across as being like a dick", Kotick - who's said to have made more than $8 million last year - told the New York Times this week that it's only a small section of the gaming community who criticise him.
"When you dig down and look at the people who are vocal in their criticism of me, it's a small number," he said.
The recently divorced executive added: "Think about what it's like for my dating life when the first picture that comes up is me as the Devil. You see all this chatter and you realize that they game the search results. These super-sophisticated 19-year-olds are smarter than our expensive P.R. firm."
Kotick also insisted that he's a gamer, labelling a 2009 Forbes article which claimed he didn't play games inaccurate.
He told the NYT he had calluses 'from playing too much Defender' and that today he mostly plays Skylanders with his daughter.
"People criticize me for not being passionate about the products, but I am," he said.
During a keynote at the 2010 DICE Summit, Kotick also tackled his reputation with gamers, saying: "I don't know how this happened, but all my life I was the rebel flying the Millennium Falcon or the X-Wing fighter and suddenly I wake up and I'm on board the Death Star."

Syracuse, NY, Sep 29, 2011 -- The Carthage Free Library Board of Trustees and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development held a groundbreaking ceremony for the expansion and renovation of the library. USDA Rural Development State Director Jill Harvey announced a $50,000 grant and a $450,000 loan for the construction project. Camelia Moses, President of the Library Board stated that the Board has been developing plans and working on funding for the project for many years. The grant and loan package from Rural Development, coupled with a $311,422 NYS Library Construction Grant funding and proceeds from their Capital Fundraising Campaign, brings the total project cost to $1,110,000.
"Today we celebrate the beginning of the construction phase for this project. Carthage Free Library is essential to the Carathage-area community. Several community needs will be addressed by the expansion and renovation. Virtually all public spaces will be handicap accessible. The existing building will be renovated and a new heating and cooling system will be installed. Many of the renovations, like lighting, will be designed to increase energy efficiency and reduce operating costs" said Jill Harvey. "Under the leadership of the Obama Administration, Rural Development has done numerous projects that represent our commitment to rural areas in New York. We want to help communities establish the necessary tools to succeed", said Jill Harvey. The expansion will provide more public access computers, a community room that will allow more and varied programs, particularly youth activities, and a new space designated for primarily for teens.
Located at 412 Budd Street, the Carthage Free Library has served the community with traditional library services since 1910. It is housed in a 4,400 square foot building that will be renovated and expanded by approximately 3,400 square feet. The addition will include finishes, installation of a wheelchair lift, two handicapped accessible restrooms, and an automatic handicapped accessible main entrance. The renovation consists of repair to exterior walls and windows, new HVAC system, revamp electrical system, new furnishings, and carpeting. GYMO, P.C., architects from Watertown, NY, have designed the addition and will supervise construction. Volunteers, coordinated by a Campaign Steering Committee, have conducted community fundraising efforts in support of the project.
USDA Rural Development's mission is to deliver programs in a way that will support increasing economic opportunity and improve the quality of life of rural residents. As a venture capital entity, Rural Development provides equity and technical assistance to finance and foster growth in homeownership, business development, and critical community and technology infrastructure. Further information on rural programs is available by visiting Rural Development's web site at http://www.rurdev.usda.gov/ny.

Title: | Head Coach |
Phone: | 262-243-4381 |
Email: | email@example.com |
Previous College: | Concordia University Wisconsin, '93 |
Shawn Cassidy completed his seventh season as the head coach of the Falcons in 2013-14. Prior to becoming head coach, Cassidy served as an assistant to former head coach and mentor Wayne Rasmussen.
Coach Cassidy, a member of the 1993 Falcon basketball team which competed in the NAIA National Tournament, graduated from CUW with a degree in Lutheran Secondary Education with an emphasis in Mathematics. In 2001, he earned his Master's Degree in School Administration from Azusa Pacific University.
Cassidy taught and coached at
Orange Lutheran High School in Orange, California for twelve years
before returning to CUW. Shawn spent nine seasons as the head
basketball coach at Orange Lutheran, putting together a 144- 93
record with three league championships and eight playoff
In Cassidy's first full season the Falcons finished 14-11.
Concordia also won the CIT for the first time in school history,
scoring one-sided wins over CU- Seward and CU- Chicago. Despite the
graduation of six top performers, the 2008-9 Falcons ended up
13-13, including 10-6 in the NAC.
The 2009-10 squad won the CIT for the second time in three years with victories over CU-Chicago and CU-Nebraska in front of the home crowd. The Falcons also gave Cassidy his first NAC North Championship with a 10-6 record. Concordia finished the season 15-11 overall.
In 2011, the Falcons made a major jump in the national scene by climbing as high as #21 in the DIII rankings, #1 in the Midwest Region, and hosted the opening round of the NCAA tournament. Statistically, the Falcons were ranked in the top 20 in the nation in four categories that season: Win-Loss percentage; scoring margin; steals per game; and turnover margin.The Falcons completed their conference season undefeated 16-0 in route to a second consecutive NAC North Division championship. Four players earned All-Conference recognitions and Coach Cassidy was named NAC Coach of the Year. The 2010-2011 team is the only men's basketball team to go undefeated in the conference regular season in NAC history.
The 2011-12 squad (21-6) won another Northern Division Crown, losing just twice in league play, but falling to Lakeland in the Northern Athletics Conference Tournament Semifinals after defeating the Muskies twice during the regular season.
Despite losing several players from the 2011-2012 squad, Cassidy and the Falcons posted an 18-9 record in 2012-2013, finishing second in the NAC North Division. The highlight of the 2012-2013 campaign was CUW capturing the CIT crown, defeating Concordia Nebraska, 64-62 in the title game.
Coach Cassidy is the Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) advisor which follows the mission of CUW in enhancing the total student-athlete experience by creating opportunities to serve, protecting student-athlete welfare, fostering a positive student-athlete image, and contributing to the overall success of Concordia. SAAC is involved with many service projects in the community such as a Canned Food Drive, Blood Drive, Think Pink events, and many other service projects.
Shawn and wife Paula reside in Cedarburg with their children; Patrick, Evelyn and Avery. They are active members of First Immanuel Lutheran Church and School.

HD Radio on the Agenda at CES 2010
HD Radio may not have been the lead story at this year's International Consumer Electronics show but there were plenty of examples on display and a number of announcements regarding new applications and automakers adding HD as both standard and optional equipment on a growing number of product lines:
Luxury automaker Audi says HD radio technology will be added as standard equipment in its 2011 A4, A5 and Q5 models, and will be available with the optional navigation packages as well. Those vehicles are slated for delivery by fall of this year.
Volkswagen of America revealed that it is including HD Radio technology to those vehicles equipped with its DVD navigation system. Features will include multicast reception and real-time navigation updates.
U.S.-based Ford continued to make a ripple with its late December announcement that HD Radio Technology will be available on most 2011 Ford vehicles -- including the world's first factory automotive implementation of Itunes tagging. Meanwhile, its luxury Lincoln brand plans to offer HD Radio combined with Neural surround technology in its high end THX certified OEM audio packages for 2011 models.
Korean Automaker Kia boasted about its addition of HD Radio as an OEM option on select models, but rival Hyundai grabbed the spotlight with its 2010 Sonata, which begins delivery this month with OEM HD Radio as standard equipment.
At the Ibiquity Digital booth there were a plethora of portable, tabletop, component and automotive HD receivers, with 25 new flavors of HD Radio products featured, along with new HD Radio technology applications such as CAP EAS and other specialized data services.

Leonard Cohen's Jukebox: In interviews through the years, Leonard Cohen has mentioned a handful of specific songs he favors. Leonard Cohen's Jukebox is a Heck Of A Guy feature playing those tunes for your edification and entertainment.
Leonard Cohen On George Jones – "Best voice in America"
Leonard Cohen's interview with Mark Binelli for Rolling Stone in 20011 is, as suggested by its subtitle, "The cult hero on his songwriting, cooking and Chinese liquor," wide-ranging. For the purposes of this post, however, the focus is on a few sentences about Cohen's late night pleasures as a kid in Montreal, including a shout-out to WWVA in West Virginia:
I listened to country as a kid. I could get WWVA from West Virginia, late at night. Have you heard George Jones' last record, Cold Hard Truth? I love to hear an old guy laying out his situation.2 He has the best voice in America.
George Jones – Cold Hard Truth
Bonus – Rufus Wainwright, Eminem, and The Spice Girls
The interview proceeds from George Jones to more contemporary (in 2001) artists:
[Interviewer]: Any younger artists you're listening to now?
[Leonard Cohen]: I didn't get a chance to listen to much up on the mountain. Rufus Wainwright is a good friend of my daughter's, so I know his work. I listen to whatever's put in front of me: Eminem, Spice Girls, everybody.
Other Leonard Cohen's Jukebox Posts
All posts featured in the Heck Of A Guy Leonard Cohen's Jukebox series can be found at the end of the Leonard Cohen's Jukebox Page.
Credit Due Department: Concerned that I could be overlooking Cohen-favored songs, I posted a request for help at LeonardCohenForum yesterday and have already received several generous, knowledgeable, and helpful responses offering more references to Cohen-favored songs than I could have hoped. I am grateful.
One of those LeonardCohenForum responses was from MaryB, who recalled "an interview posted here [LeonardCohenForum] in the last 6 months or so where LC interrupted the interview to get the reporter to listen to some lines from a George Jones song." A search quickly located the Rolling Stone article with the George Jones reference that is the basis for today's entry.
- Q&A: The New Leonard Cohen – by Mark Binelli. Rolling Stone. Posted Oct 19, 2001. [↩]
- I also love to hear an old guy laying out his situation. Incidentally, George Jones was born September 12, 1931, making him only 3 years older than Leonard Cohen, who was born September 21, 1934. It was because Jones began his professional career at 16 and was singing on Texas stations in the 1940s that his songs could possibly have been available on radio while Cohen was still an adolescent. I haven't been able to track down when Jones began singing at WWVA, but, according to allmusic, the first George Jones recording (a single called "No Money in This Deal") was released in early 1954, just after Jones returned from a stint in the Marines, on a local Texas label where it received no attention. At that time, Leonard Cohen would have been 19 years old. [↩]

Many people expected a brewery was in the offing. But despite the fact that White Labs Inc. — the business officially joining the Asheville beer community at 172 S. Charlotte St. — will have a tasting room of sorts with its own beer flowing, it is decidedly not a brewery in the traditional sense. White Labs is a […]

Lighten up with Life of Brian at the Rio Theatre
This Friday (Dec. 7), 11 pm, the Rio Theatre will be showing Monty Python's 1979 skewering of religion and Hollywood epics, Life of Brian.
Life of Brian tells the tale of an unassuming man named Brian, who was born on Christmas Eve in the stable next door and is mistaken for the Messiah. In fact, Brian's whole life reads like an extremely fractured take on the life of Jesus: He attends the Sermon on the Mount (but can't hear a bit of it, as he's in the cheap seats), falls in with the People's Front of Judea liberation group (or is that the Judean People's Front?), and amasses a group of followers determined to regard everything he does as a miracle.
At this rate, you can probably guess that the story won't have a happy ending, but with such a sunny take on the Crucifixion, you won't mind a bit.
Tickets are $8, but you can get your hands on one for $6 if you come in a movie-related costume. More reason to dig out those sandals and robes, I say.

My mom passed away and I inherited her furniture. The living room and dining room is in the Queen Ann style furniture very much like the one shown on the site below
http://www.furniturefurniture.com/queenannlivingroom.htm The wood is very dark and all of the current furniture in my home is a light oak. I would really like to use her furniture in various room in my home. I think the chairs would look lovely in small seating area in my bedroom next to my bookshelf and window. I also have a china cabinet in the same dark wood. It seems like I saw someone on one of the home make over shows making dark wood lighter by applying some type of solution that simply made the wood lighter. No sanding and repainting. It was some type of bleach like solution for wood. My questions are ... Has anyone tried this and can you tell the name of the product?
I am not a decorating diva so please forgive me if this is a dumb question but is it ok to lighten the wood of this style of furniture. Meaning is Queen Ann furniture supose to be in dark wood only? Any help would be appreciated! |

Queen Anne is usually a walnut, cherry, or mahogany ... all of them are dark woods. Why do you need to lighten it? There is no rule that says all the wood in a house has to match. What you saw them using was wood bleach ... and you DO have to sand, then re-varnish the piece. |
- Posted by kittymommy (My Page) on Sun, Jul 31, 05 at 19:21
Thanks for responding. The problem is the furniture would have to be combined with other pieces in the same room that are light oak. Hubby hates dark wood and if the furniture can't be changed to a lighter tone he would prefer that I don't keep it. I have to admit that I am not much of a fan of dark woods either. I would just like to keep it for the memories. |
- Posted by rmcandlelight (My Page) on Mon, Aug 1, 05 at 14:04
If, both you and your husband don't like darkwood I would say go ahead and paint it. Queen Anne furniture style looks good light or dark in my opinion. |
It's a massive mess to sand and bleach this stuff. you are asking for a big headache. And these woods usually 'bleed' so even if you lighten it, it won'te be more than a shade or two, and it's going to gradually turn again. Why don't you slip cover the dining chairs and use a corresponding cloth over the table. Then paint foam board or some other firm board and line the back wall of the china cabinet in the same wall color as you have or the same fabric you use on the table and chairs. That might give you the 'break' you want from all the dark. If not, then you can paint it as suggested above... as for your liv. room chairs, go ahead and try them in the bedroom and if you don't like them, you can either paint them or take them back out and into the attic until you decide what to do. I suspect you are not going to be happy with the dark wood in more than a couple of accent pieces over the long haul. And if you paint them, they are not really going to be the pieces you remember. I suspect it's the memories rather than the furniture you can't do away with right now...and that's normal. give it some time. you will find yourself picking out the pieces you really would like to keep and passing the rest on to others who really enjoy it. |

if they just wiped something on over the existing finish, it was a technique called 'liming' which is basically varnish or poly finish with white pigment in it (this can be customed colorel, by the way. the poly is 'polyshades' by minwax) if they're 40's vintage- you can do that, or honestly? if you're happy with the fabric? I have had good results with masking the upholstery off, and using Krylon spray paint. slipcovering them is another option. if they're real, solid mahogany or walnut or cherry frames (if you turn the chairs over, you should get a sight of the unfinished wood)- get them done professionally, or let them go. the chinacabinet will be something of a pest, especially if there's glass involved- but the fabric backing will indeed lighten the thing up a good deal. |

Hi, I'm Kirsten Fields with Country Living Magazine. And today, I'm gonna show you how to create storage in a space that you're probably not using right now which is right underneath your shelf. So, to get started, you're gonna need a nice collection of glass jars. You gonna wanna make sure to wash these out with some soap and warm water that will get any adhesive label that you've got on the front off. I use these jelly jars which I really love. They've got a nice wide open mouth that you can see here, so I can reach right into it and get whatever I've got in the jar. For our purposes, this was use for home office crafting space. So, we were putting things like rubber bands and ribbons, paperclips. So, we wanted something that could reach into. You could also use this for a kitchen space with some sugar or flour or spices. You could also do it in a bathroom, maybe with Q-tips and cotton balls. But, once you're [unknown] with your jar is set, you're gonna get a shelf. I got this one from a company [unknown] when I was your age. It comes in this really great distressed finish which I love. You could pick up an order shelf at a flea market on eBay. You just kinda want to make that your shelf has the correct depth, so that when you put your jar down your jar isn't hanging over the edge but it fits nicely right in the center. You also want to make sure that the shelf is made of wood because we're gonna be hammering through. What I've already done is measured out my shelf and then space out these jars evenly. You could definitely do a staggering if you wanted, maybe if you have some small and larger jars. I would just make sure that if you do that, make sure that your hand can fit completely around the jar, so it's easy to twist open. So, once you're ready, you just take the lid off of your jar and I've already marked the spot here. I'm just gonna place the lid down and then, I've been using some very tiny little nails that are in my picture hanging kit. You wanna make sure that your nail isn't gonna go beyond the board that you're hammering through. So, you just pick up your hammer and I usually do a nail right in the middle. And then, you're gonna do a couple extra ones around the sides just for stability because with 1 nail it could pull through, but 3 nails should be plenty. The next step will be labeling which I really like. It's a great way to add personality and organization to the system. You can get these self-adhesive labels at any stationary store. I'll just write right on there on what I'm gonna be putting in the jar, stick it right on. It's just a nice way to add a little bit of color to what you're doing. I also have these hanging tags, which you can get at a craft store and some little stamps. So, I'll just stamp on here on what is going in the jar and then I'll tie this right around the lid of the jar. So, that will give you kind of a nice general store kind of feeling. We also have this kit which is a burnishing kit. You can get this in the scrapbooking section of a craft store. So, it has all these [unknown] letters and then I'll just find my letter that I want, maybe a "B" for button. And I'll use my popsicle sticks, burnish it right on there on the front, pull it away and the "B" is there, so I'll know what that is for. So, this is a great way to empty out your junk drawer and to organize the odds and ends of your life.

I LOVE this Bunny Wreath!!! This is actually the second Bunny Wreath that I have made so far. The first one was claimed by my mother right after I finished it! This one I am giving to my sister since she seemed a little jealous that my mom got one and she didn't. Now I am wishing that I had bought even more supplies to make myself one because my other spring wreath I started broke in half (you'll notice that it is in three parts because I was mad at it…haha).
I'll eventually start it all over again. Maybe I'll hot glue it back or just use a fun noodle!
Now back to the Bunny Wreath!
What you will need:
2 thin 6 inch grapevine wreaths (mine were from Hobby Lobby and came tied together)
1- 8 inch Vine Wreath (see mine at Hobby Lobby)
1- 10 inch Vine Wreath (see mine from Hobby Lobby)
26 gauge brown (preferably) or green floral wire
4 feet of 1 inch ribbon in color of choice
tiny flowers and vines to stick around the wreath (see my choices: pink flowers, orange flowers and green spray)
See the video Tutorial here:
Begin by taking the 6 inch wreaths and separating them (if they are together). Then squeeze them at both ends until you crack them a little and they start to form a point at both ends. You may need to wrap the end with a little floral wire to make it more narrow.
Take some more floral wire and connect the 8 inch wreath with the 10 inch wreath. Use as much wire as you need to ensure a tight fit. Secure by twisting or tying into a knot.
Attach the two 6 inch wreaths to the top of the 8 inch wreath. Secure with floral wire.
Hot glue the stems and flowers around each wreath.
For the ribbon use a strip that just fits around the "neck part" where the 8 inch wreath meets the 10 inch wreath. Hot glue to secure and then wrap a little wire to "scrunch" it where the ends are glued together (this is where the bow will go).
Attach the bow with some hot glue to the scrunched part. Then you are finished!!! SO adorable!
Hopefully you will think ahead and grab enough supplies to make two or three… because everyone will love this!!!
