Hi GA gardeners,
I have a large area about 30x30' on a sunny slope that has Yarrow 'Moonshine' and Liatris spicata and Salvia 'Blue Mystic Spires' and a few Echinacea 'Rocky Top." I am looking for a long, summer-blooming tough plant with good pollinator appeal, and a good enough presence to be seen from 50' away. I am thinking about Rudbeckia fulgida var. fulgida. The plant should allow the Liatris to grow and not crowd it out. Maybe a small Helianthus? What do you think? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Agastache, Anise hyssop is a good one too and the birds are fond of the seeds. If you have some moisture, then Stoke's Aster is good. I do like Rudbeckia fulgida var. fulgida, I have it as well. It has just started blooming in the last couple weeks, so it is a late one for me. |
- Posted by bobbygil 7 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sun, Sep 5, 10 at 7:17
Hi..how about Heliopsis Summer Sun it would go with what you have already and it blooms forever bobby |
By the way, an article on a pollinator-attracting evaluation of Stokesia laevis. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Study near Macon State
Thanks Esh. I also grow Stokesia Laevis 'Silver Moon' - nice plant. |
- Posted by girlgroupgirl 8 Atlanta (My Page) on Wed, Sep 8, 10 at 12:08
chezron, I have what I think is that rudbeckia - it's slightly taller and long flowering than hirta, and blooms later. Both are good -hirta to bloom first, then this one to bloom later. I have a TON of it if you are in the Atlanta area and want some. My other suggestion is some hot lavender pink phlox. I have one that blooms after the cone flowers stop. It's blooming now. Joe Pye Weed, and also the brightest of the obedient plants would also work. |

Metallic chemical element, one of the transition elements, chemical symbol Cu, atomic number 29. Sometimes found in the free state in nature, it is a reddish metal, very ductile and an unusually good conductor of electricity and heat. Most of the world's copper production is used by the electrical industries; the remainder is combined with other metals (e.g., zinc, tin, nickel) to form alloys such as brass, bronze, nickel silver, and Monel. Copper is part of nearly all coinage metals. In compounds copper usually has valence 1 (cuprous) or 2 (cupric). Cuprous compounds include cuprous oxide, a red pigment and a fungicide; cuprous chloride, a catalyst for certain organic reactions; and cuprous sulfide, with a variety of uses. Cupric compounds include cupric oxide, a pigment, decolorizing agent, and catalyst; cupric chloride, a catalyst, wood preservative, mordant, disinfectant, feed additive, and pigment; and cupric sulfate, a pesticide, germicide, feed additive, and soil additive. Copper is a necessary trace element in the human diet and essential to plant growth; in blue-blooded mollusks and crustaceans it plays the same role in hemocyanin as iron does in hemoglobin.

Stocks rallied yesterday on a dose of good earnings and brisk GDP growth, coming despite the slow down in government spending. It is good news that the US economy continues to grow. As in 2011 and 2012 issues overseas can easily take front and center as they are this morning. The distribution of option volume in the SPY yesterday was not looking great for our rally. Mark rightly pointed out in the blog last night that there was no VIX buy in for the rally. Today he looks pretty right.
We have been writing recently about the disconnect between some of the realized volatility and implied volatility in the broad indexes. One place that has not suffered a disconnect is AAPL.

Sears of Cleveland is saluting the local heroes of Cleveland from Saturday through Dec. 31.
Sears will be supporting first responders through a partnership with the National Volunteer Fire Council with a program called "Salute to Local Heroes."
For every Craftsman Bottle Opener sold at $9.99, Sears will make a $2 donation.
In addition, each customer will be asked to donate from $1 to $10.
All funds raised will be given to the Cleveland Volunteer Fire Department.
"First responders are fighting fires, responding to accidents and keeping our communities safe while risking their lives to protect our communities and loved ones.
"This program is designed to provide them with critical funds so they may have the training, equipment and support they need when we need them most," said Darry Hardy of Sears.
"We are very honored that they are doing this for us," said Cleveland Fire Inspector Gene Bishop.

On Thursday I was observing a colleague whose students were putting together PowerPoint presentations as the final part of a long term project. Most of the students were pretty adept at adding all the bells and whistles that bring these presentations to life. When one of the students was trying to figure out what to do with huge blocks of text on many of their slides, I immediately thought of a video entitled How NOT to use PowerPoint. I suggest you show this in class any time you plan to have students create presentations:
Another rule I really like is Guy Kawasaki's 10/20/30 rule. Kawasaki, a venture capitalist and columnist for Entrepreneur magazine, gives and receives a lot of presentations in his line of work. The rule is simple: have no more than 10 slides, last no longer than 20 minutes, and have no font smaller than 30. His idea is that your presentation will be more engaging and effective when you keep things concise and easy to read.
Even if they're just presenting a poster or other product, helping them make their presentation more effective is as important as the content itself (if not more so). I hope you'll share your ideas for better PowerPoint presentations in the comments as well.

That was great. Thanks for sharing. I agree that students (and a lot of adults) should watch that video before putting together a presentation.

Excellent reminders and tips. Less is better. We should always remember that a power point presentation is also a reflection of our own thoughts. Cramming or speeding throughts up just isn't useful.
Thank you so much for sharing.

I pulled my garlic up..about 50 bulbs..I am going to hang them in my sauna (don't use it in the summer)..questions is..DO I clean off the earth first? Pull off anything..or just hang as is? How long does it take to cure? and
following that how do I keep them so they wont sprout or get old. Or do I give them away? In other words how long do they stay fresh enough? ok ok...this is more than one question...I better stop before I have too many more...help...the garlic is waiting ;-) martha/zucchini |
Follow-Up Postings:
Martha, To cure them, first brush off the loose soil. Then bunch them in groups of no more than ten or a dozen and hang them. I'd be concerned about using the sauna unless you put a fan in there. They need an airy place to cure properly. In two to three weeks the leaves will be totally dry, and there will be no green in the neck area. At that point you can put them up. You didn't say whether they were hardneck or softneck varieties. That can determine how long they keep. Typically, hardnecks last 6-8 months in storage, and softnecks last up to a year. If you grew hardnecks, prepare them for storage by timming the roots, leaving about a half inch, and trim the tops, an inch or so above the neck. Then put them in mesh or paper bags. Softnecks can be handled the same way. Or you can braid them, and hang the braid right in the kitchen. |
Thank you Garden Lad...I will take them out of the sauna, just hung them in there tonight. I did dust off the loose earth..I think (this shows how little I know) they are softnecks..they had long curly scapes...I cut them off and ground them up with olive oil...whew they are good..thanks for the response..;-) martha/zucchini |
ok so I'm still a bit confused.When folks are talking about the yellowing leaves just how much yellow will be on a leave and how much green?My leaves are green with yellow streaks on some and some have just yellow top 1/4 portions or a spot or 2 of yellow with yellow blotching on each plant with still more than half of say the 7-8 leaf total being green.A few look to have mostly still green leaves but the bottom of the stem/stalk is yellowing.All hardnecks I assume btw. thanks Bill |
Martha: If you harvested scapes, then you grew hardnecks, more than likely. Do you know the variatal names? Bill: I can understand your confusion. It is _not_ the cut & dried thing many of us make it sound like. According to the literature, garlic leaves yellow from the bottom upwards. But more times than not, I have the same situation you describe. So I go by the overall impression. What I do is try and analyze the whole view, and, if it seems like half or more have changed color, I start checking by uncovering bulbs. If the test bulbs look ready, then I lift the entire crop of that variety. Commercial growers do not depend on leaf color, but grow by the calendar. At least that's the way Blue Moon Farms does it. What about you, GarlicLady? Do you work by calander dates or by leaf color? |
Thanks a bunch(of garlic LOL)gardenlad. Bill |
>Thanks a bunch(of garlic LOL< Yeah, yeah, yeah, Bill. Promises, promises. :>) |
Thanks GardenLad Hardneckks it is! I do not know the variety name. Two years ago I planted some bulbs from I bought from an organic gardener..Last year I planted bulbs from what grew from those first bought organic bulbs..Plus I bought more from a farm stand near by...They all look the same now. I have taken them out of the Sauna..and hung them in my basement..where there is a de-humidifier and some air cirulcation..it is the coolest place in the house..and I mean temperature wise.The aroma is great. The stalks are very dry and papery, I guess when they are dried well, the greener parts will also become as brittle...martha/zucchini |

I'm about to purchase a new mattress and am leaning toward the Sealy reserve. I'm not clear about the level numbers referred to in many of these posts. I'm also not clear about the differences between the Reserve series and the Signature. Can you clarify? Thanks.
Hi Katie. The Signature Series has added lumbar support inside the coil unit. They are thicker mattresses, with more poly foam. There is also a little latex added to the layer just under the quilt. The coils, edge support and boxspring are the same in the Reserve and Signature.
There are only 2 levels in the Reserve Series, with an inch of poly foam being the only difference.
WE DELIVER EVERYWHERE in the Continental US.
FREE DELIVERY on all Sealy Posturepedic Signature, Sealy SpringFree Latex and S&F Estate models....and adjustable beds w/ mattresses.

Unanimous! Federal Appeals Court Rules Obama's NLRB Recess Appointments –UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Obama, a 'constitutional scholar' who refuses to uphold the US Constitution. So much for his Oath of Office. Heh.
(Washington Times) –In a case freighted with major constitutional implications, a federal appeals court on Friday overturned President Obama's controversial recess appointments from last year, ruling he abused his powers and acted when the Senate was not actually in a recess.
The three-judge panel's ruling is a major blow to Mr. Obama. The judges ruled that the appointments Mr. Obama made to the National Labor Relations Board are illegal, and the board no longer has a quorum to operate.
But the ruling has even broader constitutional significance, with the judges arguing that the president's recess appointment powers don't apply to "intrasession†appointments — those made when Congress has left town for a few days or weeks.
The judges signaled the power only applies after Congress has adjourned sine die, which is a legislative term of art that signals the end to a long work period. In modern times, it means the president could only use his powers when Congress quits business at the end of a year.
The judges on Friday ruled that the only clear bright line is when the Senate recesses at the end of the year.
More from WaPo:
A federal appeals court panel unanimously agreed that President Obama violated the Constitution last year by appointing three members to the National Labor Relations Board while the Senate was not technically in recess, circumventing Senate Republicans who had held up his picks for months.
The D.C. circuit court's ruling could also raise questions about Obama's recess appointment of Richard Cordray to lead the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is being challenged in a separate case.
If the ruling stands, it would invalidate all the decisions made by the NLRB since the appointees joined the board. [...]
At the time, Levin was livid over Obama's illegal unconstitutional recess appointments and righteously so:
Update: U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell provides some direct quotes:
In its ruling today, the Court said, "Allowing the President to define the scope of his own appointments power would eviscerate the Constitution's separation of powers.â€
The Court determined that: "An interpretation of 'the Recess' that permits the President to decide when the Senate is in recess would demolish the checks and balances inherent in the advice-and-consent requirement, giving the President free rein to appoint his desired nominees at any time he pleases, whether that time be a weekend, lunch, or even when the Senate is in session and he is merely displeased with its inaction. This cannot be the law.â€
Update 2: The regime responds: What difference does it make? Absolutely nothing.
White House: Court's recess appointment ruling has 'no impact' on NLRB operations

I love color mixing and matching. It's one of those nice meditative, Tachisme, a French abstract art movement during the 40s and 50s, was a reaction to cubism and the equivalent to American abstract expressionism. Some of Les tashistes were Sam Francis, Hans Hartung, Georges Mathieu, Henri Michaux, Pierre Soulages. Being hooked on blobs, it's a natural that I'd love Sam Francis' paintings. You usually see him surrounded by sheets of paper on the floor -> giant color tests IMO. And he looks incredibly happy.

Projectors on the Generalized Eigenspaces for Neutral Functional Differential Equations in $L^{p}$ Spaces |
Projectors on the Generalized Eigenspaces for Neutral Functional Differential Equations in $L^{p}$ Spaces We present the explicit formulas for the projectors on the generalized
eigenspaces associated with some eigenvalues for linear neutral functional
differential equations (NFDE) in $L^{p}$ spaces by using integrated
semigroup theory. The analysis is based on the main result
established elsewhere by the authors and results by Magal and Ruan
on non-densely defined Cauchy problem.
We formulate the NFDE as a non-densely defined Cauchy problem and obtain
some spectral properties from which we then derive explicit formulas for
the projectors on the generalized eigenspaces associated with some
eigenvalues. Such explicit formulas are important in studying bifurcations
in some semi-linear problems.

Girsanov Transformations for Non-Symmetric Diffusions Let $X$ be a diffusion process, which is assumed to be
associated with a (non-symmetric) strongly local Dirichlet form
$(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{E}))$ on $L^2(E;m)$. For
$u\in{\mathcal{D}}({\mathcal{E}})_e$, the extended Dirichlet
space, we investigate some properties of the Girsanov transformed
process $Y$ of $X$. First, let $\widehat{X}$ be the dual process of
$X$ and $\widehat{Y}$ the Girsanov transformed process of $\widehat{X}$.
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for $(Y,\widehat{Y})$ to
be in duality with respect to the measure $e^{2u}m$. We also
construct a counterexample, which shows that this condition may
not be satisfied and hence $(Y,\widehat{Y})$ may not be dual
processes. Then we present a sufficient condition under which $Y$
is associated with a semi-Dirichlet form. Moreover, we give an
explicit representation of the semi-Dirichlet form.

$H^\infty$ Functional Calculus and Mikhlin-Type Multiplier Conditions Let $T$ be a sectorial operator. It is known that the existence of a
bounded (suitably scaled) $H^\infty$ calculus for $T$, on every
sector containing the positive half-line, is equivalent to the
existence of a bounded functional calculus on the Besov algebra
$\Lambda_{\infty,1}^\alpha(\R^+)$. Such an algebra
includes functions defined by Mikhlin-type conditions and so the
Besov calculus can be seen as a result on multipliers for $T$. In
this paper, we use fractional derivation to analyse in detail the
relationship between $\Lambda_{\infty,1}^\alpha$ and Banach algebras
of Mikhlin-type. As a result, we obtain a new version of the quoted

Nonstandard Ideals from Nonstandard Dual Pairs for $L^1(\omega)$ and $l^1(\omega)$ The Banach convolution algebras $l^1(\omega)$
and their continuous counterparts $L^1(\bR^+,\omega)$
are much
studied, because (when the submultiplicative weight function
$\omega$ is radical) they are pretty much the prototypic examples
of commutative radical Banach algebras. In cases of ``nice''
weights $\omega$, the only closed ideals they have are the obvious,
or ``standard'', ideals. But in the
general case, a brilliant but very difficult paper of Marc Thomas
shows that nonstandard ideals exist in $l^1(\omega)$. His
proof was successfully exported to the continuous case
$L^1(\bR^+,\omega)$ by Dales and McClure, but remained
difficult. In this paper we first present a small improvement: a
new and easier proof of the existence of nonstandard ideals in
$l^1(\omega)$ and $L^1(\bR^+,\omega)$. The new proof is based on
the idea of a ``nonstandard dual pair'' which we introduce.
We are then able to make a much larger improvement: we
find nonstandard ideals in $L^1(\bR^+,\omega)$ containing functions
whose supports extend all the way down to zero in $\bR^+$, thereby solving
what has become a notorious problem in the area.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Josh Beckett reportedly played a round of golf last Thursday, prior to missing his Saturday start because of tightness in his lat.
According to 98.5 The Sports Hub, Beckett was seen playing golf with Clay Buchholz on May 3, one day after the Red Sox said the pitcher would miss his next start. Beckett had thrown 126 pitches in his start that Sunday in Chicago despite feeling some tightness in his side.
Boston said at the time it was a precautionary measure to skip Beckett. It also allowed the Sox the opportunity to slide Aaron Cook into the rotation for a start.
"Josh is going to just miss that one start to play it safe on the fact that he threw more pitches than he's normally throwing," manager Bobby Valentine said back on May 2. "He had some right lat stiffness, tightness. There's a reason for everything. I guess the reason is that Aaron Cook gets a start and Josh gets more than just that one day extra."
Beckett threw from 90 feet last Friday and came through it fine. He said he should've told the Red Sox about feeling a little stiff even prior to that start against the White Sox.
"I really wanted to pitch. I wound up making things worse," he said on May 4. "Bobby came into the training room and said, 'You're going to miss a start.' It wasn't totally shocking when he came in and said it. It was definitely something that was discussed before that. It felt a lot better the other day. I'm pretty optimistic this next start is going to be fine."
Appearing on WEEI's "The Big Show" on Wednesday, Valentine briefly addressed the rumors.
"I'm aware of the story being out there," the manager said. "I haven't gotten to Josh about that yet. I'm trying to sort out my feelings. Golf is as much a part of the pitching culture as the curveball, I know that for sure.
"You know, when we decided for Josh not to make his start, it wasn't that he was injured. It was just a precautionary situation. His lat was a little tight. … I have no idea what the situation actually is so it's hard for me to comment on it."
Asked specifically about the possibility that Beckett played 18 holes of golf while nursing the tight lat, Valentine said, "If that was the case, I would say that was less than the best thing to do on that day off."
Valentine told reporters later in the day, "I'm sure that Josh wouldn't do anything that's going to jeopardize his team or his season. I know that."
Beckett was not with the team on Wednesday, as he was flying back to Boston early to prepare for his Thursday start against the Indians. That's a normal practice for a starting pitcher.
Buchholz declined to comment on the rumors.
Not only did Beckett miss his start Saturday, but he was apparently unavailable to pitch out of the bullpen on Sunday when the Sox had to resort to pitching outfielder Darnell McDonald in their 17-inning loss to the Orioles.
Valentine said he wouldn't use a starting pitcher in that spot unless one volunteered for duty.
"Someone would have to come to me and say they would have to get loose in time, that they wouldn't need the regular rubdown and need the regular longtoss and wouldn't need the regular time in the bullpen for me to be able to look at the lineup card and pencil them in," he told WEEI.
Middlebrooks returns
A day after leaving in the second inning of Tuesday's game, Will Middlebrooks was back in the Red Sox lineup, hitting fifth and playing third on Wednesday night.
"Everything's good. I'm in the lineup. I'm good to go," said Middlebrooks.
It's been a week since Middlebrooks was called up to the big leagues. In seven short days, he's hit three homers, four doubles and driven in nine runs. He's also missed one game and left another early with leg cramps. The Red Sox are trying to get to the bottom of what Valentine called a "mystery" on Tuesday night.
"I guess he did foul a ball off his leg in the minor-leagues," Valentine said on Wednesday. "It might have been some relationship, but that's just a new theory today."
In the meantime, Middlebrooks said he'll do his best to keep his left leg warm with some additional wraps during the game.
"Just playing it day-by-day," he said. "I felt good today, so we'll see how it goes."
Injury update
Kevin Youkilis may resume baseball activities as soon as Thursday, Valentine said before Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Valentine said Youkilis was doing "much better," and the team is open to the possibility of baseball activities for the injured third baseman when they return to Boston on Thursday for a four-game set with the Indians.
Youkilis can come off the disabled list on Monday.
Jacoby Ellsbury is also making progress - doing exercises with weights - while left fielder Carl Crawford will meet the team in Boston. Valentine did not think Crawford had undergone his re-examination yet to determine when he can start throwing.

Mumbai's International Airport Shuts Down Main Runway
Latest Security News
Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (BOM) in Mumbai is constructing a rapid exit taxiway (RET), which will shut down its main runway from January 20-June 1, 2012 between 9:00am-5:00pm. BOM is India's second busiest airport and handled almost 720,000 tons of cargo in 2010. The secondary runway will be used while the main runway is shut down. The number of flights the secondary runway can process is significantly less than the main runway. Delays should be expected for flights going in and out of BOM during those hours.

Sounders coach Sigi Schmid said he believes his team is capable of advancing to CONCACAF finals
The Sounders trail Santos Laguna, 1-0, in the CONCACAF Champions League semifinals heading into Tuesday's second leg in Mexico.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Latest from the Sounders FC blog
Sounders trade defender Eriq Zavaleta to Toronto NEW - 1/26, 11:56 AM
TUKWILA — Sounders FC's run in the 2012-13 CONCACAF Champions League has already rewritten the history books once.
But Seattle, after becoming the first MLS team to eliminate a Mexican opponent in the tournament's knockout stages, needs to do it again.
No team has ever advanced in a two-game CCL series after losing the first leg at home (0 for 12). That's the position the Sounders are in after losing to Mexico's Santos Laguna, 1-0, last week at CenturyLink Field.
The finale in the two-game aggregate-goals semifinal is 5 p.m. Tuesday at Estadio Corona in Torreon, Mexico.
"Nothing's impossible," said Sounders forward Eddie Johnson.
Seattle would advance to the CCL finals — a feat just one other MLS team has accomplished — with any win of two goals or more. A one-goal win with at least two goals scored would also put the Sounders through, because the first tiebreaker is away goals. A 1-0 Seattle win would send the series into a 30-minute overtime, and a penalty-kick shootout follows if there is still no winner.
Santos Laguna, last year's CCL runner-up, would make it back to the finals with any tie or win.
For the Sounders, the task is immense, and they have done little to instill confidence it can be done.
Seattle is the only winless team in MLS play and has lost three straight games, when including CCL, for the first time since the end of 2010.
In all competitions, the Sounders are 1-5-1 and 0-3 on the road.
No wonder Seattle's elimination seems inevitable.
"That's what everyone is going to feel, and that's normal," said coach Sigi Schmid. "But we believe in ourselves and we believe in our ability to do a difficult thing.
"It's nice to do unexpected things and things that people don't expect you to do. I know probably Santos, in the back on their minds, doesn't expect us to do it, so that might give us a little bit of an edge."
The Sounders' efforts going into Mexico were aided by MLS, as Seattle was able to reschedule last Sunday's home game against Chivas USA to Sept. 4.
On the other hand, Santos Laguna had to play a league game at Tijuana on Saturday and used most of its regulars. Nine of the 11 starters from the CCL first leg started again over the weekend.
Schmid said the Sounders will hope to take advantage of the opponents' workload, perhaps when fatigue hits in the second half, but the strategy won't be attack-only.
"We have to be disciplined," he said. "We can't give anything up, because (any goal) we give up just makes it that much harder at the other end for us. We want to be in a situation where we don't give anything up and we catch a goal, and we force them to start taking risks because they're at home. Then hopefully we can catch another goal."
• The start of Sounders FC's July 28 home game against Chivas USA has been pushed back two hours to 8 p.m.

Hi Greenstylist9, sorry for the delay in getting back to you only just picked up mail since the weekend. Chicken is raw when put in the pot, if salt in your diet is an issue, is an issue the packet mixes for Taco seasoning can be high in salt. I have posted a a Taco seasoning mix on Big oven which is much cheaper than packets and much lower in salt content. We serve to the table and let people serve themselves. Garnish with sliced lime. Regards Jamieo

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 Kira!
Facts about Kira
- Breed: Rottweiler Mix
- Color: Black - With Brown, Red, Golden, Orange Or Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Kira's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
Meet Kira! She is about 2 years old and is a Rottweiler mix, though at first glance appears to be mostly purebred. Kira is a sweet girl and loves people. She's very large – about 85 lbs – so might be a bit much for families with small children, who might accidentally get bumped or knocked over. She is spayed and up-to-date on all her shots. This sweet girl really just prefers to be an only dog – so a home with no other dogs or cats would be great for Miss Kira. She is housetrained, crate-trained and very obedient. She would make a wonderful companion.
If you are interested in adopting sweet Kira, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com for an application.
Other Pets at Friends of Rescue (FOR) - Huntsville, AL
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Kira, a Huntsville Rottweiler dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Rottweiler for sale in Huntsville, or seeking a Rottweiler dog from a breeder in Huntsville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Huntsville 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 Huntsville 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 Rottweiler breeders who help with Rottweiler rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Huntsville paves the way for another one to be saved.

Are the world's governments, policymakers and economic forecasters getting the wrong signals on oil markets because of distortions inherent in the benchmark, WTI? It's been said for weeks that WTI may not be the best indicator of crude oil supply and demand, and now the International Energy Agency, which represents western oil-consuming countries, has confirmed it thinks so too.
The problem? WTI typically trades at a higher price than other benchmarks such as Brent crude, because it is easier to refine. But in recent weeks it has consistently traded lower than heavier blends.
This week it was the IEA's turn. In a two-page breakout box titled "WTI Benchmark: Past Imperfect, Future Tense" in its latest monthly outlook, it took aim at problems around the physical delivery point for WTI, which is in Cushing, Oklahoma:
US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange has reigned for decades as the most important pricing benchmark in global oil markets despite its tangible logistical flaws. Inherent operational problems related to the WTI contract delivery point in landlocked Cushing, Oklahoma have periodically triggered a disconnect with international crude oil prices, prompting industry participants to question the viability of WTI as a suitable benchmark for global oil markets. Past discontent with WTI has been quelled when market dynamics eventually correct the largely localised pricing aberrations.
After a short history of WTI's benchmark role, it goes on:
The unprecedented collapse in the WTI pricing structure over the past six weeks has, once again, called into question the relevance of WTI as a global price benchmark. Sharply lower oil demand, rising Canadian crude oil flows into the region and swelling crude inventories at storage tanks in Cushing have collectively exerted enormous downward pressure on prompt month WTI prices and turned upside down traditional pricing
relationships with domestic and foreign crudes. Volatile WTI is sending mixed and misleading price signals not only to the market but to economic forecasters, government officials and policy makers.
It went on to suggest:
Short of opening a physical link to the US Gulf Coast, Nymex could alleviate existing problems with WTI by designating a second delivery point along the US Gulf Coast and increasing the number of crudes that can be delivered under the contract. Nymex already allows sellers to deliver Brent and Norwegian Oseberg at small fixed discounts to the settlement price, while Nigerian grades Bonny Light and Qua Iboe, and Colombia's Cusiana can be fixed at a small premium.
The recently distorted price structure for WTI has raised doubts among many market participants about the future of the bellwether crude. In the near term, record stock levels at Cushing, anaemic oil demand and plans by refiners to sharply cut throughput rates in February and March could keep downward pressure on WTI prices. Further deterioration in the fragile WTI pricing mechanism would only serve to reinforce the view that the crude has become an irrevocably broken benchmark. Others argue that, though imperfect, WTI's reputation as a global price benchmark remains intact. Structural changes to expand the existing pipeline infrastructure, including a line to the US Gulf Coast, may also make for a more perfect union between WTI and Cushing by the end of the decade.
Nymex, the market on which WTI trades, defended its benchmark in the FT, saying there was little appetite from market participants for either of the IEA's suggestions:
No industry users had indicated a need for a delivery point in the Gulf and previous attempts by Nymex to offer other grades of crude as deliverable alternatives had attracted negligible interest.
Mr Levin pointed out that description of WTI as a "landlocked" crude was incorrect because about 1m barrels a day of imported crude flowed directly into the US mid-continent market, which linked the WTI market directly with the seaborne market.

Anyone know some places in the bay area where I can shop for a lychee tree? The more the better. And if you know the price please post also. |

I've been told by friends who live on the Big Island of Hawaii, whose lychees I savored and coveted, that they won't grow in Southern California - so I think you might have even more difficulty in the Bay Area. The place to check is with the Calif. Rare Fruit Grower's Association - if anyone can tell you for sure, they can. A link to their website is below. Good luck! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Lychee link
- Posted by gardenguru1950 SunsetZ15 (My Page) on Thu, Jan 19, 06 at 19:33
According to the CRFG: "Lychees require seasonal temperature variations for best flowering and fruiting. Warm, humid summers are best for flowering and fruit development, and a certain amount of winter chilling is necessary for flower bud development. Most varieties need between 100 and 200 hours of standard chilling (32° - 45° F). Cool winters with low rainfall [!] are ideal for lychees. The trees become more hardy as they age. Mature trees have survived temperatures as low as 25° F when fully hardened off. Young trees may be killed by a light frost. Lychees can be successfully grown in frost-free coastal areas of California. There are trees in San Diego, California that are over 90 years old with no sign of decline in sight. It first fruited in Santa Barbara in 1914. They can be grown for a short period in a large container." Joe |

Thanks, Joe - I guess I'll try one here in my "frost-free, coastal" garden! The fruit is so wonderful, the tree is worth coddling a bit. "Winters with low rainfall" probably explains why they do well on the dry Kona side of the Big Island. I want to try to find a Jujube as well - beautiful tree, with interesting, delicious fruit. There's a couple of fine old specimens at the Huntington. |

Lychees certainly will grow in most mild Southern California climates, as the CRFG "Fruit Facts" entry indicates. But, from what I understand, the trees are reluctant to flower and fruit in that region -- the climate is not entirely to their liking. But it is certainly worth trying, if you can accept that any plant(s) may not fruit regularly. Lychees in the S.F. Bay Area are only for envelope-pushing daredevils. I know of a few people who are attempting them, and it is possible to overwinter them in favorable microclimates. I have not encountered widespread accounts of fruiting plants -- although I have heard, anecdotally, of lychees being fruited outdoors in the Santa Clara area. As for where to get one: Menlo Growers in Gilroy (open by appointment only) does usually carry trees, but they are relatively expensive -- I would guess in the $75 range for a plant in a 15 gallon pot. Regan's Nursery in Fremont might also possibly and occasionally have lychee trees, but, again, they would not come cheap. Only buy one if you don't mind (potentially) losing an expensive plant in a bad winter cold-snap. |

I've got a young Lychee tree that is fully leafed out and vibrant looking right now, in mid January. But it's been mild this year so far. It flowered well last year but never fruited. A friend told us her dad in Irvine hand pollinates his and gets fruit, so I will try that next flowering. In South Florida where I used to live, Lychees are a commercial crop and very good. Someone in my family had a whole grove. However, crops are sporadic and 7 years between crops is not unheard of. I believe the problem is getting the right pollinator at the right time. This has a lot to do with the high price of good lychees. However, I have yet to see or taste a fruiting CA lychee, but I won't be shocked if they turn out to be like the Mexican Lychees I bought at market last year- lousy. The tree can live, maybe it can fruit, but climate can effect fruit quality. I'll find out eventually I guess. Also most of the CA Lychee trees I see seem to spend a lot of the year with leaves with brown tips, or dropped leaves. Not so attractive. |

thanks to patrick, here is what I found from crfg. no listing in the bay area but in ca. thought I should share the info: http://www.crfg.org/nurlist.html (notice you can get others like longan etc.) fruit facts: http://www.crfg.org/pubs/ff/lychee.html ashok, $75 is not bad considering it would cost $50 just to get the trees into ca from fl, say. thanks everyone for your info. If getting fruit is difficult, may be certain varieties do better than others here in the bay area? I'll have to look into that. |

I got my "CCW Courtesy Cards" from www.firearmscoalition.org
They can be found here; http://firearmscoalition.org/special/CCWCard/
The ones I got are a bit different than what they show on the site. Mine say, "Gun Bans ensure that only Law Breakers Will Be Armed! Studies Prove Concealed Carry Reduces Crime. Gun Rights Guarantee All Rights," on the front. On the back they say, "Banning Firearms Disarms Only The Lawful - Creates a 'Safe Workplace' for Criminals Increases your Liability - Shifts Burden of Protection of Workers and Patrons to You! Criminals won't obey your 'No Guns' sign! I Will. Your Competitors Thank You!"
Not bad, $10 for 100 cards...

ALLERTON-The city of Allerton reported a wastewater overflow from a manhole in a field on the east side of town Thursday. An unknown amount of sewage entered a tributary to Medicine Creek about 30 ft. from the manhole.
Dairiconcepts Lp is temporarily holding its wastewater to reduce flow in the sewer until the issue is resolved. A pumping contractor will remove the blockage today.
Samples are being collected both upstream and downstream to determine water quality impacts. The DNR is monitoring the situation and cautions people to keep children and pets out of the area for at least 48 hours.

Earlier today, House Minority Leader John Boehner, OH-8, visited Louisville to help raise money for Republican Todd Lally, a lieutenant colonel in the Kentucky Air National Guard who is challenging Congressman John Yarmuth, a Democrat.
From The Courier-Journal:
Lally said about 250 people attended the event, which cost each person $250 to attend or $1,000 to be listed as a sponsor. He said he didn't know how much money it raised.
Boehner spoke for about 20 minutes, partly about his vision for the House if the Republicans can take over, Lally said.
A few weeks ago, Yarmuth's campaign released a survey that shows the two-term congressman leading by 26 points going into November. However, the Lally campaign says it is encouraged by Boehner's visit.
"Leader Boehner's support and willingness to personally help our efforts is telling of national importance and commitment to this race," Jay Hill, Lally's campaign manager said in a news release. "His presence in our District signals an expansion of our campaigning efforts on every level to ensure Louisville gains true conservative leadership in the House."
In response to today visit, Yarmuth's campaign manager, Elizabeth Sawyer, has issued the following statement:
Today, Todd Lally welcomed John Boehner to Louisville. The House Republican Leader has repeatedly called for cutting and privatizing Social Security, a dangerous plan that gambles seniors' retirement in the stock market. Fresh from meeting with Boehner, Lally followed in his footsteps, advocating the dismantling of Social Security as we know it and even calling it a "Ponzi Scheme."
Social Security is one of our nation's most successful programs, guaranteeing the financial security of millions of seniors every year. Congressman Yarmuth has a strong record of supporting Social Security and will continue fighting for Louisville seniors.
We're not sure if this indicates the Yarmuth campaign is worried about Lally's support from a national figure, but this isn't the first time Yarmuth and the minority leader have jousted.
Last fall, during the debate surrounding President Obama's health care reform Boehner asserted that he hadn't met anyone who is in favor of the public option and Yarmuth sent him an invitation mocking the Republican leader's assertion.

PLEASE NOTE: The 2012 History Lecture Series has reached capacity. The first lecture of this series, Maimed at the Start? The "Inevitability" of Unrest in Modern Ireland, was recorded for broadcast by UWTV and will air in Feb. Keep checking this space or visit uwtv.org for further details. Audio recordings of the entire series will be available for purchase from Tree Farm following the final lecture on Jan. 31. Visit www.treefarmtapes.com and search in the American and World History category. Thank you for your interest, and we hope to see you at a future lecture series!
Now in its 36th year, the History Lecture Series remains one of the most popular lifelong learning programs offered to University of Washington alumni and friends.
Join University of Washington Professor of History George Behlmer for a fascinating 3-part series on "Revenge and Reconciliation in Modern Ireland."
The poet W.B. Yeats famously declared, "Great hatred, little room, maimed us at the start." Until very recently, tiny Ireland has loomed large as a fractured landa land riven by religious, political and economic strife. What made Ireland for at least three centuries the most troubled corner of Western Europe? Why did the spectacular failure of Irish rebellions only harden revolutionary resolve? Was Great Britain in fact the wellspring of Ireland's epic misery? Now that the bullets and bombs have mostly disappeared from the streets of Northern Ireland, has genuine "peace" been achieved there? These are among the vexing questions to be addressed in Professor Behlmer' s lectures as we examine the ways in which competing myths about the Irish past continue to roil the present. (Lecture descriptions below.)
A free reception for UWAA members will be held before the first lecture on January 17 in Kane Hall Room 225. Appetizers, wine and non-alcoholic drinks will be served. Members must register in advance.
All lectures will be held at Kane Hall 130, UW Seattle, from 7 to 9 p.m.
UWAA Members: $20 series pass; $10 individual tickets; FREE 1/17 reception

Maimed at the Start? The "Inevitability" of Unrest in Modern Ireland
Was Ireland fated to be a place where violence was the norm rather than the exception? Tellingly, many of the giants of Irish nationalist lore between the 1790s and the early years of the 20th century were Protestants. The Irish freedom struggle was therefore never a monochrome movement, nor was Ireland's Catholic community ever of one mind about the resort to violence in the name of nationhood. Often overlooked in the war of words between "Orange" and "Green" today is the fact that Ireland's modern revolutionary tradition once imagined a united front of Protestants and Catholics in the common quest for Irish freedom. What happened to this progressive ideal?

A Terrible Beauty: Physical Sacrifice and Irish Nationhood
Today we are bombarded with claims about "martyrdom" --and with horrific images of so-called martyrs' work. Nineteenth- and twentieth-century Ireland was probably awash in more "martyrs" than any other part of the Western world. Where did this confidence in the redemptive force of suffering come from? Ancient Celtic legend, it is true, praised the efficacy individual sacrifice. But the Irish glorification of suffering also had modern (and rarely acknowledged) roots. Furthermore, this lecture will explore the posthumous construction of "martyrdom": it has almost always been the survivors who confer this status.

Peace Versus Forgiveness in Northern Ireland Today
Between 1969 and 1998, Northern Ireland, the only part of the island that remains part of Britain, suffered the loss of roughly 3,600 civilians in a vicious dispute over who rightfully "owns" its 1.5 million people. Everyone lost in this barbaric contest, from hard-line Protestant "loyalists," to equally fierce Catholic "republicans," to often perplexed British soldiers. The much-celebrated Good Friday Accord of April 1998 marked what some have called the beginning of the end of civil war in the North. Today, Northern Ireland is generally classified as a "post-conflict society." But what really happens when the shooting stops in a place that has known only mayhem for a generation? Can there be real peace without personal forgiveness? What is the way forward in the six counties of Northern Ireland? And what can the tortuous path toward peace in Ireland suggest about our expectations for healing in other fractured lands?

The kitchen can often be a place of stress and hazardous material (probably why most men try to avoid the situation completely). But as the rest of the world strives for overall convenience, why too can't the kitchen be a nicer, more fun, and easier place to be in?
These kitchen tools and innovations are ways in which the culinary centre of the house is continuing to become a much more enjoyable room in the house.
These kitchen-novations range in a variety of eco-centered, futuristic, compact, or just plain cool tools (or whole kitchens for that matter).
Time to be the iron chef!
