I am starting to climb my way out of lower elo (I know this because I see way more people with revive and que times have gotten longer. Either I've moved up or they moved down.) Anyway I always use revive after the windmill fight if I lose or someone starts to cap our mid or bot but I sometimes forget that I have my revive up. I mean it's just sitting there idle. Are there any other times when it is appropriate to use revive or should I continue to play the way I've been playing?
Revive is one of the trickiest summoners to use properly IMO. I'm trying to think of an answer that doesn't boil down to "When you need it". Here's when I use it: 1. Windmill fight, assuming your team has revive and is willing to use it. No point in getting wiped out and being the only revive to run in to a 1v4. 2. If you're in a down to the wire match and they're going to cap that bot or mid point if you don't interfere. Those are the more obvious scenarios. In mid game it's sort of a, "Would doing this actually help us keep a point?". I profess that I'm no expert but these are the simple rules I use.
maybe this is just my opinion but I actually dont like revive that much in Dominion and here is why: If I have the summoner spells to support combat (say flash/exhaust) they will matter more in the initial Windmill engagement. Assume its 4 revives vs 4 with combat summoners. those 4 combat summoners if used properly at the least will result in a 2 for 4 trade (obv dependent on champions but its not often you will see 4 combat summoners lose if a champ isnt using an available spell) If i run a flash/exhaust flash/ignite combo I'll know that I have a certain edge over opponents using revive ghost (the usual combo) which will allow me to capture a point. (Ghost is typically used in the initial rush and thus will be down for combat). Assuming my side wins combat you need to quickly cap the point and immediately B to make use of the gold advantage you just aquired and itemize because you know the 4 you just killed have revived and are rushing back. they'll retake the point but then its just a matter of sitting back and pushing the lane to neutralize it and then reentering combat which you probably will win because now you have the items to do it. then once you retake, go b again and just itemize again. rinse repeat. This is of course, just my opinion.
Basically whenever it's up and when I can synchronize it with the respawns of my allies, or if I need to rush back to defend a point.

General Quackers
Revive isn't like Flash on SR. You're not supposed to take it on every champ regardless of how you're going to build them or team comp; that's just stupidity; that's what you see at the very low Elo brackets of Dom because players there simply have no concept of strategy. Revive is good on champs who will have a large influence on holding points. Whether it's a Malphite who can hold off 4 enemies for a good 15secs on his own or if it's a Nid or Shaco who can realistically interrupt 2 enemies attempting to channel a point as often as is necessary. However, Revive is highly overrated. Garrison very often provides the necessary power swing required to make a game changing play more than a well placed Revive. The combination of interrupting all channeling enemies and "healing" the point at the same time is extremely underrated, especially when used with the mastery bonus. But, if you do ever get the highest echelon of play in Dom, you will find that 10 Revive per game becomes necessary entirely due to a flaw in the wave respawn system; it's a flaw which can take a team that is well ahead of the other and cause them to lose with relatively little effort from the other team. This is better explained here. To actually answer your question, you use Revive when it will matter. There's no set of rules that will dictate this 100% of the time, it's completely based on your own decision making prowess. It requires time and practice to know when to pop Revive.

If you continually follow only what proves to be trendy without true knowledge regarding your retail offerings, your skin care facility will not be distinguishable from others. Although unconventional, adding a retail expert to your skin care team can bring about the sales insight that will provide a leg up on your competition. As Anne Saunders, former senior vice president of marketing at Starbucks and current president of Redbox, states, "You can be extraordinarily successful as a business using what people would call nontraditional means … It's expanded my notion of how important experience versus information—or one-way communication—can be."
Think back to the last time you had a memorable experience at a makeup counter or a retail store. Now, imagine an amazing experience you had at a skin care facility. How do you recreate those two feelings into a singular client experience as a skin care professional?
By adding a retail advisor to your team, every team member can gain the knowledge of a retail professional and, in return, can complete the client's experience at your skin care facility.
Some skin care facility owners ask whether it's worthwhile to have a retail expert leading the rest of their team. Adding a retail advisor increases sales because team members are provided with the knowledge to reinforce education from the moment the service begins, until the client walks out the door. Emphasizing teamwork in business is a valuable focus for a skin care facility—when a client arrives for her services, she becomes every team member's client. Follow these tips to incorporate a retail advisor into your skin care facility, while encouraging your entire team to work together to increase your retail sales.
The result is twofold: The skin care professional is able to go on to their next client without making the previous client feel rushed, and she can feel confident that clients will be leaving with the necessary products to enhance their routines at home. Secondly, the client not only had a longer and more thorough appointment, but they also experienced the added value of undivided attention.

Manfrotto 441 Carbon One Tripod
(Bogen 3443) - New Version
A Review by Jeff Simpson
Beast of Burden
Lugging around a sturdy aluminum tripod (Manfrotto 055C) and a large backpack of 35mm gear has always made me wish that pack mules were easier animals to fit in the trunk of a car. Surely a modern, lightweight carbon fiber model would be a more practical solution!
According to Manfrotto, its lightweight carbon fiber/magnesium tripods are designed to make outdoor and location photography easier than ever. They are 30% lighter, yet stronger and more rigid than their aluminum equivalents. Sounds like a dream come true. But does the Carbon One live up to these claims and, more importantly, to the hefty price it commands?
At over $420 USD — $140 per leg or $270 per kilo — these tripods are expensive. I managed to find one for $219 USD at my favorite shop (www.fotocinecolor.com). At that price, I just couldn't resist, but I have subsequently discovered that the company does not honor standard mail order practices in Europe and now refuse returns or exchanges! Caveat Emptor.
My first impressions were very favorable. The 441 Carbon One weighs one kilo (2.25 lbs) less than my aluminum tripod, yet handles the same maximum weight load of 6 kg (13.2 lbs) - a big plus, if you consider that a 80-200 f2.8 zoom lens weighs about the same. The tripod itself is extremely well built and includes a number of excellent standard features such as integrated leg clasps to keep the legs from opening during transport. The uniquely shaped tubes do eliminate rotation and increase the overall stability. Side-by-side, both the aluminum and carbon fiber models feel equally rigid.
Other Features
The center column can be rapidly converted to a lateral arm for overhead shots.
The leg lock mechanisms are comfortable and very easy to use.
Low-level platform adaptor included.
Integrated spirit level.
Hanging ring for weighing down the tripod (I recommend that you follow Michael's suggestion and use a bungee cord for added rigidity rather than hanging your camera bag on this ring).
The included strap and integrated leg clasps make this tripod a joy to carry.
Nothing's perfect. Personally, I find this tripod a little short. With the legs completely extended, I have to stoop over to avoid extending the center column. Equivalent aluminum Manfrotto tripods (055 Series) are about 5 cm (2 inches) taller. Currently I am using the Manfrotto 222 Grip Action Ball Head; the added height of this head does help increase the overall effective height of the tripod although at the cost of a reduced maximum weight capacity.
Manfrotto's revised tripod designs include a longer center column. Personally, I believe this is a step backwards. The lowest possible shooting level without replacing the center column with the special adaptor plate is now 50 cm (20 inches). Unfortunately, using the special adaptor plate means removing your existing tripod head from the center column or carrying an additional head with you. Not very practical in the field. This applies to the 055 Series of aluminum tripods as well though. (Although you could use the lateral position for the center column, this makes camera position adjustments difficult because the base of the head may interfere with the actual movement of the tripod head).
I also don't like the position of the fastening screw for the center column. My fingers almost always get pinched on the adjacent leg angle adjustment pin when tightening the screw.
This is a great piece of equipment that has taken some of the burden out of 35mm travel and landscape photography for me. Light, yet extremely solid, it always travels with me. While almost all of the features offered by the 441 Carbon One can be found for less than half the price in a similar aluminum model, the savings in weight is worth it.

Forex Trading Tips – Things My Algo Taught Me
Things My Algo Taught Me
This week I finally automated my scalping strategy. Yes it uses Bollinger bands. Yes it's a reversion to the mean idea. No I won't reveal the specifics, so please don't ask me. What I do want to talk about, however, is the idea of algo trading itself. For a purely discretionary trader like most of us, algorithmic trading is a brand new frontier and I wanted to share my initial thoughts on the subject. Those of you who have been trading automated strategies for a while, please write in offer your insights. I would love to hear from you.
Whether we like it or not algo trading is the future for both institutional and retail accounts. I don't think computers will ever replace human analysis completely, but just like in in every major field of life from aeronautics to medicine to agriculture to transportation they will become a crucial component of economic activity. So here is a list of things my algo taught me so far
————--Top 5 Stories in FX This Week—————-
Was 2008 Just a Dress Rehearsal
China's 8.9% Growth? No Way
3 Myths of the Recovery
Stop Passing The Buck On The Dollar
Wall Street Run Amok? Blame Harvard
1. Train Yourself
The first thing you will want to do with your algo is to override it. That's fine and totally natural. As discretionary screen based traders we simply don't realize how much "art" is involved in our day to day trading process. Even the most steely, disciplined traders will change their "ironclad" trading rules on the fly in reaction to whatever is happening on the screen.
So go ahead, screw around with the algo, take profits early, terminate trades arbitrarily, override your entry criteria. In short let emotion take over and get it out of your system. After a few days of second guessing yourself and losing money you will finally be ready to let go. Like an anxious parent watching his baby take a few steps on his own, you will finally start to trust the process.
2. Trade with Real Money
I know the standard advice is to trade your algo on a demo, but I disagree wholeheartedly. Trading a demo is like playing HALO 3 and thinking that you are ready for war. The moment you hear a shell explode near you in real life you'll pee your pants. Mistakes WILL happen on the algo (in the future I am going to devote a whole column to all the things that can go wrong) and you need to learn from those mistakes quickly. There is no better feedback loop than watching your account get sliced and diced by the computer. You will become battle hardened in no time.
3. Understand the Model
Ask yourself exactly what price behavior you are trying to model. Ask yourself why you think this behavior may have an edge in the market. Stop obsessing about the indicators. Indicators are simply tools that help you describe your psychological insight mathematically, so changing the parameters of your SMA from 20 to 25 will not help you at all in a rangebound market. Always take an eagle's eye view of your strategy and be merciless with your assumptions because I can assure you, if you are not -- the market will show you no mercy.
4. Let Algo Be Algo
Once you are generally content with the logic of your strategy, let the thing trade. Just as we must learn as parents to bite our tongue and let our children discover for themselves the rules of life, so too with the algo we must let it trade for a while to discover the rules of price action. Besides, you need at least 200 data samples to even begin to draw any meaningful conclusions from your ideas so sit still and let it operate on its own. After all that's the goal isn't it?
I've been trading Algo for 2 yrs. One of my systems has currently making new records in term of drawdown. I have trouble finding a "rule" to decide whether a system is no longer working. From your experience, do you have something like a fail-safe point of a trading system? Say's if a system has broken a new drawdown record or a certain level, you will stop trading that particular system. Or do you look at other considerations such as your overall portfolio, the overall profit that the system in question has made for you, etc…
First, I would like to say that I am a deep admirer of you and I have been following you for a long time.
Now, for the algos…
After 2 full years of hard work, a lot of reading and learning and a lot of experimenting and checking, my partner and I finally decided to go live on Oct. 1st.
We knew we were not ready but we also knew we will never be ready…
Trading with an algo is not so different than trading the same set-up manually. You just have to avoid the same type of mistakes (all you mention in your article is also true for manual trading…) and adhere to the same healthy principles of simplicity and risk control.
If you did your homework properly you have a chance…
you should make a statistical anlysis of your results and decide what is the maximum deviation from the norm you are willing to allow.
a good rule of thumb could be "twice your maximum hystorical/backtesting drawdown"
it all depends on your risk preferences and the results of your system in the past.
also, check if the system is still doing what it is supposed to do. taking the trades it is supposed to take and avoiding the ones it is supposed to avoid.
I agree that it is very important to trade with real money. You need to feel the pain and joy before you know if you can "live" through it.

BROOKINGS, S.D. - Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infections are one of the major contributors to bovine respiratory disease (BRD), resulting in losses in U.S. herds estimated at $2 billion per year, according to SDSU professor Chris Chase of the veterinary and biomedical science department.
Since 1996, the Agricultural Experiment Station researcher has been studying BVDV - how it occurs and what it does to sabotage the animal's immune system. "It is an immune-suppressive disease," he explains, making the animal vulnerable to pneumonia and other respiratory diseases.
The virus results in either a transient infection that affects the animal for a few weeks before the immune system fights off the virus; or a persistent infection causing the animal to shed the virus for its entire life.
BVDV controls include vaccinating, monitoring through testing, eliminating persistently infected animals, and quarantining and testing any new animals before they are brought into the herd. Chase adds, "Buying bred heifers or cows is always a big risk because the calf can be infected in utero and we don't have a good way to test for that."
Chase and his colleagues are devoted to better understanding the virus so they can develop a more effective vaccine. A total of 12 graduate students have completed their degrees through research on BVDV over the last 17 years.
In 2003-2004, Chase had access to a group of 136 cows that produced 60 persistently infected calves. The animals provided Chase and his graduate researchers "a gold mine of samples."
They found two viruses and one mutation. In some cases, the virus incorporated part of a cow gene or another virus in the part of the genome in which most mutations take place, Chase explains. This makes developing a vaccine to prevent the virus challenging.
Because BVDV is spread among animals through direct contact, Chase believes the best kind of immunization would be to increase the mucosal immune response - which are the antibodies secreted on the surfaces of the nasal cavity, gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts.
Currently, through a five-year SDSU-USDA Experiment Station project, Chase and his immunology collaborators Alan Young and Adam Hoppe in SDSU's Chemistry and Biochemistry department are examining how BVDV suppresses the cow's immune response. Hoppe's unique imaging system allows the researchers to use fluorescence to see what's happening at a molecular level in live cells.
Their ultimate goal is to understand how persistent infection occurs, which may then lead to developing a more effective vaccine to prevent the BVD virus from infecting the fetus and avoid creating a persistently infected animal that is a threat to the entire herd.
This information was originally published in the SDSU Agricultural Experiment Station 2013 Annual Report.

I got a really sweet 1929 Hoosier cabinet off a neighbor for 50 bucks. It needs a lot of work as it's been on her porch and parts of it are water damaged. Most of the 'big things' are done on it already. The bread drawer has been replaced, the heavily damaged back on the lower half has been replaced and the drawer slides are all reglued or replaced. (I had to pay for those jobs, but they're worth it).
Not particularly interested in 'staying true' to historical accuracy or resale value. The cabinet is made of poplar and poplar veneer. It may have been originally painted white enamel and I see traces of dark green here and there too. It's currently 'honey' stained, but the damaged areas look kinda nasty. Now my question. The inside is unpainted, should I paint that with an oilbased or latex based primer then enamel paint? The outside. I got some birch plywood for the sides and am having trouble getting a color near enough to the stain on the rest of the cabinet. Should I take the plunge and just paint it? Any advice on a vaugely accurate color? BTW, the work surface is bright wite with blue 'granite' edging. Very bright blue, not my speed, not too bad. Any advice would be appreciated. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I would work on getting the stains on the new plywood to match the old and stain it...not sure if it's more accurate for a 1929 model...but I like it better. And I would paint the inside, but be careful not to use a color that screams.... I would stain the outside, not worrying if the new and the old were an exact match (after all it's new wood) and paint the inside a color very close to "wood". Lucky you....but I'll bet you will have a bundle in it when it's done! Linda C |

I recently saw one in an antique shop--it was painted a slightly off-white ("warm white?") with very simple blue stenciled accents. Just for kicks I got out my old 1928 Montgomery Wards catalog to see if they had a color picture of the ones they sold. Sure enough, there it was---white with blue stenciling. I also looked in my 1938 catalog and they were still being offered and virtually unchanged: white with stenciled accents. I was interested to see that they show a family eating at the pull-out work surface and that one of the selling points was that a family of four could be seated around it. I had no idea that these were used for anything but work stations, but it makes sense when one remembers how tiny some kitchens were back then. So, I guess it's really up to your personal preference. I'd paint it if it were mine, but mostly because I hate all the hassles of trying to get new and old and different varieties of woods to stain uniformly. Annie |
My MIL had one of those in her kitchen, with the big flour dispenser and she used it. It was in original condition. It was painted white. |
- Posted by floyd_devoid (My Page) on Tue, May 27, 08 at 23:08
Poplar is not a very popular wood. No pun intended. I would consider painting it and applying stencils. Is it an actual "Hoosier" cabinet? Often times people call any kitchen cabinet a "Hoosier". When in reality it's a brand name. It would be like calling any vacuum cleaner a Kirby. or any cell-phone a Sanyo. |

I got some birch plywood for the sides and am having trouble getting a color near enough to the stain on the rest of the cabinet. Birch is a real pain to stain, you might want to read up on that (google "staining birch"), unless you're a pro. ;) Love Hoosier style cabinets, have been looking for one myself, good luck with the restoration! Suggest you ask in the Paint forum for recommendations for a good interior coating that will serve your needs best, several pros there. |
That's weird, I've tried to reply 2x and wasn't able to. Anyway, Thanks for all the advice and memories and help. You are all wonderful. I decided to paint the interior bright white and the exterior a soft gray. The white would be pretty, but we're not white cabinet kind of folk. My kitchen is dark, and a Big White Cabinet, might overwhelm the rest of the room. The color we picked matches my Great Grandmother's Spatter wear roaster I think it's from the same era, so they'll look pretty nice together. Floyd, it's actually a Hoosier, I found the original shipping tag. It was from 1929, and just for fun I did some research on the name. According to the 1930 census, public marriage records, and city maps--all available to me via internet one rainy afternoon. The piece was purchased in March of 1929, according to the shipping label. According to the marriage records, the name on the shipping label married in June of 1929. As listed 1930 census, they lived on the groom's family Dairy farm. The farm is gone, but the family still owns the house. I'm afraid to ask any more information though. What if they claim it was stolen and want it back? Ugh. That would be my luck. Messy, messy. So, I am looking for an Ad or milk bottle from the Dairy. I only live a few miles from the origial owner's house, the stuff might show up at a flea market or an antique shop. Thank you all again. |

Hi mooski, We recently bought a 1929 Hoosier that was painted green, the original color. Most in that time frame were not oak (except interior pieces), painted instead of stained. The one we got was their electrified model (an electric plug inside the tambour doors. My husband has had to rebuild quite a bit of it. He is using birch plywood also. We are going to repaint rather than stain. As a soft white was also a factory color, we have opted for that instead of the green. I have added the link for the pics of the cabinet when we first got it. Once rebuilt, we are having the owner of our local Benjamin Moore store spray paint it. I'm not fond of the stencil design on the door, so I will be changing. However, we are saving part of the cabinet that had to be replaced with the original color, and I have the old stencil design saved. |

I have an orginal,oak it has the flour and surgar bins, the pull out in the bottom for pot and pans, the spice rack, and I have all the spice jars and the bread box. The cabinet has the beauiful pull doors to shut off the spice rack and flour areas. It has the drawers for utilies both flat ware and other, It has the top flode out door for the coook book holder. There are three drawers to the right side, and the slide table comes out at least 6 inches more. Its oak , and I am dying to find out what this is worth, its in two pieces top and bottom. I've had it for 20 yrs and paid 825.00 for it in Galveston,tx. never seen another with this much stuff. Its is gorgeus. |

The company's printing division produces high-quality, four-color and five-color printing for national and international businesses, as well as for local companies and organizations.
Gateway's pressroom houses Heidelberg presses exclusively, including the pair of Printmaster QM 46 two-color presses, a five-color Speedmaster SM 52, a five-color Speedmaster SM 74, and a four-color Speedmaster SM 102. The company also offers a broad array of finishing services with the help of a Polar 137 EM paper cutter, B20 and B30 continuous-feed Stahlfolders, and a Stitchmaster ST 90 saddlestitcher.
The number one reason Gateway turns to Heidelberg for its equipment and software needs is reliable and ready service, said Sonia Garcia, Vice President of Printing. "Aside from having the best equipment in the world, Heidelberg technicians are incredible," she said. "One even answered the phone while he was on vacation!"
Olympic Printing Ramps It Up with New Installs from Heidelberg
Olympic Printing in Norcross, GA, recently replaced an aging thermal platesetter with a Suprasetter manual top-loading A75 CtP device. Like the older unit, the new Suprasetter anchors the company's automated Prinect Prepress Manager workflow. The installation was necessary, said company president David Gale, to enable Olympic to prepare the larger plates it would be running on its newly acquired, Certified Remanufactured Speedmaster CD 74 five-color press. According to Gale, the Suprasetter and the Speedmaster CD 74, with its larger sheet size and ability to run thicker stocks, together will help the company develop a larger presence in metropolitan Atlanta's growing market for POP/POS printing. Elsewhere in the shop, the company operates a pair of POLAR paper cutters and a Stahlfolder, in addition to a six-color MO press and a four-color GTO.
Twenty-eight-year-old Olympic Printing describes itself as a general commercial printer specializing in short- to medium-run length printing for a client list that ranges from Fortune 500 companies to local agencies. Employing a staff of 35 to produce everything from stationery to annual reports, the company has a long history of success in the Atlanta area. Its primary equipment supplier is Heidelberg, said Gale, simply because "We and everybody else in the printing industry, equate the Heidelberg name with unassailable quality and reliability."
Zoo Printing Adds New Stahlfolder KH-78 to Louisville Facility
Zoo Printing, a Web-to-print, gang-run, trade printing business based in Commerce, CA, reports the addition of a Stahlfolder KH-78 continuous-feed buckle-plate folder with cross-fold unit, feeder and stream delivery to its 40,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Louisville, KY. The new folder joins a raft of Heidelberg postpress equipment previously installed at the Louisville plant, including a pair of Polar 137 XT and two Polar 115 XT cutting systems, and a pair of USA B-20 and B-30 continuous-feed folders.
According to general manager Ark Andoun, the intelligent automation and optimized operation of the new folder greatly reduce the wear-and-tear on operators when handling 28x40-inch sheets and 8- to 12-page signatures typical of Zoo's production output. Intuitive controls and a graphical user interface based on Heidelberg's proven symbols vastly simplify operation of the machines. Accessibility of the knife shafts also has been improved with a kit designed to raise them to an ergonomically advantageous working height. Noise hoods are easier to open, making buckle plates more accessible and enabling on-the-fly adjustments to the paper and the buckle-fold assemblies as required. The new KH-78 folder is deployed chiefly to the production of catalogs, calendars, and like items.
For Zoo Printing, which serves a clientele made up of graphic designers, print brokers, print shops and ad agencies nationwide, its longstanding relationship with Heidelberg has been essential to its success. Not only is Heidelberg equipment well-engineered and reliable, Andoun said, but "The service is also consistently terrific, and our training was thorough. We view Heidelberg as a true partner in our business."

So ladies, you want to date Miller Park Drunk huh?
November 13th, 2009I have this friend and her friend loves this site. Like loves it, loves it. This person (who I have never met) loves the site an therefore loves me. No, seriously. It's true. I am not making this up. In fact of the 480 facebook fans we have a whopping 32% of them are female! That's like 153 girls reading this site! Do you realize what this all means? Chicks frickin' dig me.
Now look girls I know that you think this is all fun and games, but this is serious business. I'm not some trollop you can just post a few comments on his website and next thing you know I'm taking you out to dinner at a fancy restaurant like Red Lobster. I'm sorry, but it just doesn't work that way. I have feelings, I have emotions, I cried at the end of Wall-E! I'm sophisticated, I watch Mad Men! You can't just mosey on in with your sexy facebook profile pictures and think you're going to horn in on all my riches and move into my lush two bedroom apartment. No, you have to be a special kind of lady to get involved with this guy. There was this one time in high school when my best friend and I made a bet that I couldn't turn the ugliest girl in school (and she was really ugly too, pig tails and glasses! gross!) into the prom queen. Well, I changed that girl and she ended up being beautiful, but she didn't win the prom, she won my heart. I made that bet before I knew her, before I really knew me and that was the night that I realized that it's not what's on the outside that counts. It's what's on the inside.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me
Where was I at? Prom? I wonder what ever happened to that girl. Yeah, like I was really going to art school with her. Idiot. Wait, that wasn't it. Oh yeah, chicks digging me that are reading this site.
Girls if this is something that you're really interested in doing I have a few guidelines I'd like for you to follow. A few dealbreakers. A few tips. If you think you're serious about this read ahead, but proceed with caution. It's about to get real.DO NOT ask me to karaoke a song from Grease with you. I cannot express this enough. Asking me to sing "You're the one that I want" (ooh ooh ooh) with me is a deal breaker of the highest order. You will go home alone. If you ask me to sing "Summer Lovin'"? I might do it, but there's also a good chance I relive the car crash scene from Death Proof on the ride home. Just a heads up.
DO like me. I find it sad that even I have to mention this.
DO inform me of all haircut decisions. I need a say in these things. I had this girlfriend once who when she was off at college decided to shave her head. Seriously. There is nothing worse than having your pretty girlfriend tell you she is going to get a haircut and the next time you see she looks like Anne Heche in her banging Ellen phase.
DO NOT buy me a personalized jersey with my own name on the back. Everytime I see one of these and I make fun of the person they say "my girlfriend bought it for me" and really, it's hard to make fun of that guy after that. Still, it's obvious their girlfriend thinks he's a douchebag. What kind of douchebag do you think I am? Not that kind, missy.
DO think that Joey and Pacey were a much better relationship than Joey and Dawson. Apparently, this is from a show called "Dawson's Creek" and it is apparently extremely important to me.
DO NOT ask me and my friends to be quiet and to turn the music down because you are trying to sleep. Nobody told you to go to sleep. Wake the hell up, let's party!
DO find me hilarious. Actually, I think I have this one in the bag. *fistpump*
NEVER utter the words "Hey, let's go to Michaels!" That is the place that men's balls go to die.
DO watch Glee. (omigod its like a totally awesome show rite? mr shue is so hott. me and u are like, gleeks! teehee)
DO NOT make a sign. We're probably going to go to a lot of Brewers games together and if you ever make a sign I will tear it up into little pieces and you will cry. The only time I want you crying is when you break up with me. Got it?
DO buy me shampoo and body wash and nice smelling stuff for my bathroom. I love that kind of thing! I would buy it myself but, you know, I'm straight.
DO NOT ask me to split something at a restaurant. First of all, it's kind of emasculating. The idea of going out to eat is that I'm treating you, right? So, what you think I'm poor or something? Think I can't afford two meals? IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK?! Second of all, the very best part of having a girlfriend is that when she doesn't finish her meal when you go out to eat is that you get to finish it. Why would I want to split something when I could eat not only my meal, but half of yours?
DO NOT say "Hey, don't you think you've had enough?" What are you, the bartender? My parole officer? My mom? You're not the boss of me! Get out my face with that jive!
Alright, that's enough for now. Have a good weekend everybody.

You clearly forgot to mention that she would need to look passed your infatuation with Mike Cameron…
What about if you are married? Can you hold a sign and go to Michaels and wear a jersey with your name on the back? Cuz I did all that and its not like my life is gonna get worse because of it, so what the hell. I just watched Star Trek the motion picture and realized how hot bald chick are. I thought that Joey and Pacey and Pacey's teacher in the three way was better but I tend to make things up in my head when I get bored.
But I can ask you to sing a Michelle Branch song at karaoke, right?
-LDF (goes without saying.) -
Who is Joey, what the fuck is a Pacey and why does everyone keep telling me to watch Glee?!
-Sara -
We would have been perfect for each other except for that Grease thing. Cause *you are the one that I want*! (Ooo ooo ooo. Honey.)
So who is this insane girl who actually loves the site and you? wow…must be nice
I thought you didn't like people that like you. Weird.
Do you object to long distance relationships? I live in Philadelphia.

I used this forum several years ago and got great advice in buying a vacuum. I love my vacuum, But it has broken and before I look into getting it repaired, i was curious what you all think.
Back then people said the best suction was from bagged vacuums. Whats the word today ? I think emptying a bagless vacuum is gross and it makes me sneeze. I prefer uprights over canisters - though I know canisters are said to be more powerful than uprights.(keep in mind i have a dog & kids) What do you suggest ? |
Follow-Up Postings:

I wouldn't thank you for a canister vacuum. I had one for many years until I got an upright and there are lots of drawbacks. You are constantly tugging on the hose and that is hard on the hose, Tug too hard or the wrong way, and it flips over. Most have those little wheels that gets stuck and won't move so you have to go and pick it up. Don't remind of all the carrying and lifting of the little suckers. No an upright for me. As for bagless--again no thanks. I would think you'd spread around more dust empying it than you picked up in the first place. I have a dust allergy and the faster I can get rid of the dirty dusty bag the better. |
Don't buy a Hoover Bagless-terrible suction, it just doesn't clean. I threw mine out. My favorite vacuum was an old Electrolux canister I hasd been given by my ex-MIL when she repkaced hers with a newer Electrolux. The company isn't around anymore-having been replaced by a company named Aerus. Not sure at all what vacuum is best right now. My Mom is still using her ancient (1940's) Hoover upright. I can remember her using it when I was a child. Very noisy but it got the job done. |
Bagged vs bagless is a personal preference. If you prefer a vacuum with bags, you have lots of choices. Choosing between a canister and an upright is a combination of personal preference and the type(s) of flooring you have. If you are mostly cleaning wall-to-wall carpeting, go with an upright. If you are mostly cleaning hard floors, then I would lean towards a canister. |
If you get a bad reaction when using a bagless vacuum cleaner, then you would be better off using a bagged cleaner. Uprights and canister vacuums have improved their performance, so that with either one you use, you will get a good cleaner. Uprights and canisters, with power nozzles, will clean carpeting well. If you are a person, who does alot of cleaning like carpeting, floors furniture, lampshades, etc., a canister with power nozzle would do well. Canisters are more versatile for these task. Uprights now have onboard hose and attachments, so you can clean furniture, lampshades, etc. But uprights with onboard attachments work better for those who do not want to spend alot of time cleaning with the hose. Some use an upright in the "upright" mode, to vacuum floors. You will find that the upright does not move around the floor as quickly and easily as a canister with a floor brush at the end of the wand. There are plenty of bagged uprights available for you, but you have not mentioned what your vacuum habits are. Are you a rugs only person, rugs and floors, rugs, floors, furniture or some other combination? What is wrong with your present vacuum cleaner? What brand and model do you have. Maybe I can help. Sometimes it is better to keep what you have, if it works well. If you choose to make a new vacuum purchase, you can find an upright that will work for you. |
While most people think bagless vacuums are worry free and cheaper, the converse is mostly true. Bagless vacuums require much more maintenance, must be cleaned & serviced more often (usually at a higher cost than a bagged vacuum) and filters must be washed or replaced more often. The youtube video I made may help you decide between a Bagged or bagless vacuum. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnad0yuASec |

I have had no problems at all with my upright bagless Dyson. I take the dust cylinder outdoors to empty and let the dust fly to the winds, and then I remove the foam filter, wash it, and replace. No worries. I've had it about 10 years. Love it. |
I had a Dyson for 5 years and it has been the best vacuum I've owned since I first purchased a vacuum in 1982. My next vaccum will be a Dyson and I will buy one for my daughter when she gets her apartment. IMO a Dyson is light years ahead of the other vacuums I've tried - cleaning/suction, noise, easy to take apart. Just better in every way. |
Though you have had good luck with your vacuum and I can see why you would buy one again, the reasons you gave (cleaning/suction, noise, easy to take apart) are easily matched by many other vacuums. In addition I really disagree that a Dyson is light years ahead of other vacuums. I can readily accept "unique or different" but as far as dust collection/management/storage they have set the industry BACK light years, partially demonstrated by the video. A vacuum like the Tandem Air Simplicity would be considered light years ahead in innovation. And the Dust collection/management/clean air advances by Miele are light years ahead of ANY bagless vacuum. |
I was trying to be helpful. I said the Dyson was light years ahead of the other vacuums I've tried (i.e I've owned - Hoover, Eureka, Panasonic). I thought my almost 30 years of vacuuming might be worth posting an opinion. |
Sorry you felt slighted (I use caps to highlight, sorry if you felt they were yelling LOL) I'm just trying to inform. I'm quite sure most people have no concept of the disadvantages of a bagless system. Afterall manufacturers are not going to advertise the negatives. I think it's best people have all the facts before purchasing. |

Island Transfers
Conrad Maldives is on two tiny islands, about 100km from Malé International Airport.
- Conrad Maldives Rangali Island Hotel - Conrad Maldives Seaplane
- Conrad Maldives Rangali Island Hotel - Seaplane Lounge
- Conrad Maldives Rangali Island Hotel - Seaplane Lounge Seating
- Conrad Maldives Rangali Island Hotel - Seaplane Lounge Dining
- Conrad Maldives Rangali Island Hotel - Seaplane Lounge Balcony
Getting to the Conrad Maldives Island Resort
Guests can arrive by seaplane, luxury cruise on our yacht, or domestic flight and speedboat. All of these transfer options have fees that will be added to your room charge.
After we have your international flight details, we will arrange your transfers between the airport and the resort. Please note that we require three days' advance notice to arrange these transfers. Last minute bookings are subject to availability.
Guests on Malé international flights arriving
- between 06:00 and 16:00 will transfer by seaplane. The flight is about 35 minutes.
- between 16:00 and 22:00 will transfer by a short domestic flight to a nearby airport followed by a speedboat transfer to the resort (seaplanes cannot fly at night).
- after 22:00 will require overnight accommodation in Malé. We can book your hotel if requested and add the charges to your Conrad Maldives bill; a seaplane transfer will be arranged for the following morning.
Seaplane Transfers and Private Lounge Perks
A breathtaking 35-minute seaplane flight brings you from Malé to the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island.
At Malé International Airport, please look outside for the uniformed Conrad Maldives staff member holding the Conrad sign. Our representative will take your luggage and check your bags (maximum weight 25kg plus 5kg for hand luggage; overweight items will be charged).
Our representative will drive you to our complimentary seaplane lounge, open from 07:00 to 17:00, at the seaplane terminal. Enjoy a respite from a long international flight. Designed to be the equal of the best airport lounges in the world, the seaplane lounge is on the second floor of the Trans Maldivian Airlines terminal.
Shower using designer amenities, indulge in a 10-minute complimentary neck/shoulder massage, eat complimentary breakfast and lunch buffet, and drink soft drinks and juices. Enjoy views of the airport runway and seaplanes taking off and landing on the water. Other lounge facilities include a children's play room, free WiFi, and computer stations. The waiting time for seaplane transfers can be up to two hours from the time of arrival at the Conrad lounge.
The lounge is available from 17:00 until 22:30 for a fee, a convenient alternative to day-use hotel rooms for guests with late evening flights. The fee includes a dinner buffet after 17:00. When your flight is ready, you will be guided from the lounge to your seaplane.
Guests preferring immediate transfer to the resort may request a private seaplane charter for an additional charge.
Flight times for the seaplanes are different every day; there is no schedule due to weather, international flights and other reasons. We request the seaplane company to minimise the wait and ask your understanding that transfers are outside of our control.
Please note that seaplane and boat transfer timings are variable and your transfer may take longer than the average length of time stated here.
Domestic Flight and Speedboat Transfers
For guests arriving after 16:00, our representative will meet you outside and bring you to Malé International Airport's domestic terminal. Following check-in, Conrad guests may use the complimentary VIP lounge and will be seated in a private section of the plane. The 15-minute flight brings you to Maamigili Airport, where you will board our speedboat for a hassle-free 30-minute transfer to Conrad Maldives.
Luxury Cruise Transfers
Arrive in style with a three-hour luxury cruise that will take you across the island-studded atolls as it sails under the Maldivian skies to our resort. The cruise accommodates up to 15 passengers. Transfer price is on request.
Leaving the Conrad Maldives Resort
To ensure that guests of the Conrad Maldives make their travel connections, we have developed a convenient schedule.
Guests departing Malé on an international flight
- before 09:00 will leave the resort the previous afternoon. We can book a hotel for you and add the charges to your room bill at Conrad Maldives.
- after 09:00 will leave in time for their international flight departure.
The Malé airport allows passengers taking evening international flights inside the airport only three hours before their flight's departure. The last seaplane of the day usually arrives in Malé around 17:00. For guests who may have spare time on the airport island, we can arrange for use of our private lounge (see below) or book a hotel room.
Seaplane Departures
At around 8pm the night before your departure day, we will have the seaplane schedule and will send a letter to your villa to let you know your departure time. You're invited to come to the reception desk to settle your bill then and to finalise any outstanding items on the day of departure.
Bring only light hand bags to reception at the departure time specified in your letter. We'll collect the rest of your luggage and load it on to the seaplane. Remember to have your tickets, passport and other important travel items with you.
The host will advise you to come to the seaplane platform on the bridge. Please understand that the seaplane could leave later or earlier than advised. On average, we receive 30-minutes' advance notice of the seaplane's actual arrival/departure time. For a smooth departure, you should proceed to the platform 10 minutes before the flight leaves. When all the guests are ready, you'll board the seaplane and leave for the airport. We provide ear plugs and water for the flight.
When you arrive at the seaplane terminal, our representatives will bring you to the airport. Your luggage will be offloaded and returned to you in front of the departures terminal of the airport.
Before Travelling to the Maldives
The Maldives is warm and humid all year round, so please pack with that in mind. May we suggest:
- Smart-casual, lightweight clothes, sunglasses, a hat, swimwear
- Sandals or flip flops
- Long trousers for men dining at Ithaa Undersea Restaurant and the Wine Cellar
- Work-out apparel and shoes for the gym, yoga and tennis
- Suntan lotion, after sun and sunblock
- Insect repellent for particularly sensitive guests or those visiting a local island
Enjoy Aromatherapy Associates products, including soap, shower gel, shampoo and more in your guest room. We will do everything possible to ensure your room is ready should you arrive early, but in case that's not possible, pack swimwear and sunglasses in your hand luggage so you can bask on the beach as soon as you arrive. Use a snorkel, mask and fins from the Dive Center.
Dressing Appropriately: Swimwear is not allowed in any of the restaurants. Shorts and t-shirts are not allowed in the restaurants in the evenings. Some restaurants require you to be barefoot. Nude or topless sunbathing is illegal but bikinis are acceptable. Bring ankle-length trousers/skirts and wrist-length tops if you are planning to visit a local island. Headscarves are not needed.
Restrictions: The Maldives, a strict Muslim country, does not allow alcohol to be brought into the country. We recommend you do your duty free shopping on the way home. Other restricted items include food containing pork, pornographic material, and any religious items (even 'decorative' items such as Buddha statues). The Maldives prohibits the taking of shells, sand and corals out of the country. At Conrad Maldives we serve pork and alcohol in all restaurants and bars.
Early check in / late check out: If your room is available when you arrive then we're happy for you to check in early. When you leave the resort we ask your understanding that other hotel guests may be waiting to check in so we may not always be able to offer a late check-out. To guarantee early arrival or late check-out, please contact us for the prices.

Schooled in the United States at UC Berkeley and, respectively, Harvard and Princeton, Philippines-born Lyndon Neri (b.1965) and Taiwanese-born Rossana Hu (b.1968) have together become one of the most dynamic design forces in China today. They moved to Shanghai in 2002 while working for American architect Michael Graves on his renovation of that city's landmark Three on the Bund project. The husband-and-wife team established their Shanghai showroom Design Republic, selling contemporary design, in 2003. In 2004, they established their design company, neri&hu Design and Research Office. Since then, they have taken on architecture and interiors projects including the restaurants and nightclubs of the Kengo Kuma - designed Opposite House hotel in Beijing and Shanghai's new Waterhouse boutique hotel. Simultaneously, as neri&hu, they have created independantly-produced, contemporary furniture and objects that have been sold around the world. This year marks their first product collaboration with international manufacturers, with neri&hu - designed pieces for Moooi, BD Barcelona Design and Meritalia – the last two being with "SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS at Work".
About the Manufacturer
Since April 2001, Moooi has inspired and seduced the world with sparkling and innovative designs within the interior industry. Besides the designs of Marcel Wanders, Moooi also has other designs from both national and internationally recognised designers, such as Jurgen Bey, Bertjan Pot, Jasper Morrisson, Ross Lovegrove, Studio Job and many more. The interior designs are selected by Marcel Wanders himself. The reasons for this diverge considerably. Sometimes an item has super-functionality, sometimes a design is brilliantly creative and sometimes dazzling. But occasionally, what we all like the most is when all this can be found at the same time.Reference
Emperor Small Suspended Lamp is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: ULMOLEMS-S--B, ULMOLEMS-S--R

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 Angel!
Facts about Angel
- Breed: Husky Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Angel's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Angel is estimated to be 5 years old she has lived her entire life outside in a kennel having puppies. She is with a foster family working on basic obedience, house and crate training. If interested in Angel online application can be done at
WV Pet, Inc. pets are fully vetted if age appropriate & micro chipped. We also offer weekly training session free of charge for anyone who adopts a pet from us. And these sessions are ongoing to help our adoptive families and their new companion.
Other Pets at WV Pet, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Angel, a Morgantown Husky dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Husky for sale in Morgantown, or seeking a Husky dog from a breeder in Morgantown.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Morgantown 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 Morgantown 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 Husky breeders who help with Husky rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Morgantown paves the way for another one to be saved.

The esophagus is a tube of mostly muscle fibers that connects the mouth to the stomach; it begins where the throad ends in the neck and is responsible for the one-way delivery of liquids and solids to the stomach. A specialized spinchter at this junction of the throat and esophagus keep food and liquid going one way when swallowing is initiated. These foods and liquids are then propelled down the esophagus by coordinated muscular contractions to the stomach. The esophagus attaches to the stomach at the level of the diaphragm, which is the muscle separating the chest and abdominal cavities. At this junction between the esophagus and stomach there is another sphincter which acts like a one-way valve keeping food and liquids in the stomach, not allowing them to reflux backward into the esophagus. Patients can develop problems with these sphincters, as well as the muscle fibers in the esophagus which require surgery. Cancer can also develop in any part of the esophagus, and surgery is often undertaken for these problems.
Zenker's Diverticulum is most likely a problem with the upper sphincter located between the throat and the esophagus. Due to pressure abnormalites there is an outpouching of the inner lining of the esophagus. Over time this can grow into large pouches that may hold large amounts of undigested food and water. Typical symptoms include difficulty swallowing, choking, regurgitation and bad breath. Patients may occasionally aspirate the contents of the pouch into the lungs causing pneumonia. When Zenker's is large and symptomatic they require treatment; the surgical approach needs to address the outpouching and the abnormality in the sphincter mechanism. The outpouching can either be removed, (diverticulectomy), or the pouch can be dissected out, turned upside down and sutured in place (diverticulopexy). The muscle problem is dealt with by dividing all the muscle fibers (myotomy) on the the side of the upper sphincter, which involves the lower throat and upper esophagus.
Dysfunction of the lower sphincter between the stomach and esophagus can lead to problems with reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus. The most common symptom of reflux is heartburn, although patients can also have asthma, cough, reflux of food in one's throat, and even aspiration pneumonia. The refluxed material includes food, liquid, acid and bile which can then damage the lining of the esophagus. With medicine such as proton pump inhibitors, many of the complications of gastroesophageal reflux are avoided and surgery is rarely needed. Severe scarring and bleeding from the irritatition of the refluxed material into the esophagus are rare.
Barrett's Esophagus is a complication of reflux, where the lining cells of the esophagus are changed, most likely by the irritation. Some of these cells become pre-malignant (dysplastic), and cancer may also develop. With the medicines used to treat reflux, there has been a decrease in patients referred for surgery. However occasionally anti-reflux operations for dysplasia or esophageal removal for cancer are performed.
One of the motility disorders of the esophagus is achalasia, which is the most common condition for operation on the esophagus for motility problems. The condition involves both the lower esophageal sphincter, which does not relax, and the muscle fibers of the lower esophagus that do not work together to contract. This lower portion of the esophagus can then dilate and fill with food and liquid and not pass into the stomach. Patients may experience difficulty swallowing, regurgitation of food, cough, and pain. Aspiration of the esophageal contents into the lungs can lead to pneumonia.
If found early achalasia may be treated by dilitation of the sphincter through endoscopic techniques. When achalsia is advanced, surgery is initiated. The treatment involves cutting the muscle fibers (myotomy) on both the esophagus and sphinter down to the stomach. Historically, this was done through a large incision on the chest but it is now preformed through minimally invasive techniques such as thoracoscopic or robotic. Both procedures are practiced by WMCTS surgeons.
Hiatal hernia refers to the herniation of the stomach through the opening in the diaphragm. There are two major types of herniation: the most common type invloves the stretching of the opening through the diaphragm (sliding type). There is no hole where abdominal contents can slide into the chest. As a result, the top part of the stomach may slide up through the diaphragm. The major problem associated with this type of hernia is reflux disease. This is easily managed with medical therapy and surgery is not required.
The second type of hernia, which is quite rare, is a rolling hernia. A defect exists where the stomach or any other contents of the abdomen can herniate into the chest. This can result in significant problems and should be repaired as soon as identified.
Rupture of the esophagus is a medical emergency. Gastrointestinal contents spill into the chest cavity and mediastinum causing severe pain (mimicking a heart attack) and a dramatic presentation with shock. The most common reason for esophageal rupture is related to endoscopic procedures. The second most common reason may be induced after vomitting. If the rupture occurs in the neck, usually from endoscopy, it can usually be managed without surgery. If however the perforation goes into the chest, emergency surgery is usually required.
Cancer of the esophagus is a complex problem. It usually involves a multi-disciplinary team that includes gastroenterolgy, oncology, radiation oncology and the surgeon. Esophageal cancer typically carries a poor prognosis due to late stage discovery. Patients in early stage may be surgical candidates for removal of the esophagus and possible cure. The procedure involves the removal of the esophagus and replacing it with a tube fashioned out of the stomach.

text: Has anybody else heard of this diet? My parents both came home from their doctor about a month ago with a diet plan that consisted of 'off days' where they're allowed to have up to 1100 calories for my 5'0 mother and 1300 calories for my 6'3 dad and then at least 2 preferably 3 spinach fast days. On those days they're allowed to each have as much steamed or fresh spinach, low sodium chicken broth and sugar free jello as they're want to eat but nothing else (besides water). My dad says he's thrilled because he's lost 20lbs in a month but I can't believe this is substainable weight loss. Besides the fact I've already caught my mother putting salad dressing on her greens (a big no no) on the days she actually sticks to plan she just lays on the couch and sleeps all day. I'm just wondering if anybody else has even heard of this or has any data on it or if it's something their doctor just made up on his own.

My best tomatoes were Wes, Pale Perfect Purple, Red Brandywine, and Black and Brown Boar. I liked some others but those were the most productive. Rain in August was nice after none in June but all my black tomatoes split and rotted in that weather. The cooler weather did allow more tomatoes to set fruit for fall. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by Tomatovator1 none (My Page) on Thu, Oct 17, 13 at 15:47
My most productive were Ramapo f1, Cuostralee and Magnum Beefsteak. I did not plant Wes but I should have. I will next year for sure. Last year Wes was my favorite. |
By most perfect, largest tomatoes Linnie's Oxheart, but very late. Taste might be Cherokee Purple Heart, but really didn't have a bad one. |
The most productive in my garden were Nature Riddle, HHHS, which is abbreviation from Baker creek chinese yellow pear shaped one, Tennessee surprise, MOPLA and Marianne Peace. Also the one I got from trade years ago and was listed with two names wonderlight aka lemonny, which was neither I think but delightful very productive tasty golf ball sized dark yellow. Can´t wait to grow it again and see if it retains its qualities. |

I was really impressed with my green zebras from seed I had saved last year, very prolific and delicious! Black Prince, Paul Robeson and Early Bird were plentiful and my Yellow Brandywines started really producing late summer and are just starting to slow down. Sungold are always wonderful producers. |
- Posted by JoeOrganicTomatoes 6A (My Page) on Fri, Oct 18, 13 at 16:24
The German Johnson was mine. From one plant I harvested 66 delicious, very large tomatoes with a combined weight of 40 + lbs.. Not bad for a $3.50 Bonnie plant investment. Next year however, I'm germinating my own and I can't wait! I already have about 20 different selected. Spring is just around the corner! |
I did'nt have many varieties( 4 + cherry types). Of those 4 Early Girl did best. Brandywine was worst. Black Krim (tho tasty) but did poorly. So I will repeat EG, drop BW and BK next year. I will add Cherokee purple, Mortgage Lifter, Green Zebra, Sungold, Stupice. Our cherries did well but we had too much of them. SLIGHTLY OFF THE TOPIC ! |
This post was edited by seysonn on Mon, Oct 21, 13 at 23:22
Burpee Orange Slice hybrid...big and bountiful...orange softballs and lots of them. Cherokee Purple pretty much thrived in the rain also. |
For the third year in a row, Estlers Mortgage Lifter was the most productive for me, and these three years were wildly different. Brandywine Sudduth and Cherokee Purple were close seconds for productivity and new favorites for taste. Kosovo was very productive, but in this very wet year, many of the tomatoes became mushy on the vine. Next year I'm switching to Anna Russian as my heart. My duds were Brandy Boy, with very poor production, and Jetsetter, which succumbed to disease early on. And I'm giving up on Earls Faux which produced only one tomato this year and last. I can only grow one plant of each variety I choose, and each is grown in its own 25-gallon fabric container, so your mileage may vary. |
Jasper f1 hybrid was my most productive tomato by far. Although lot's of cherry tomato types that are good, and productive are around. Jasper is rather small, but again extremely productive and shown no signs of being in a bad year (way too wet in spring). Taste is excellent. Thanks for the reports! |
If it weren't so late, Linnies Oxheart would be a new go to variety for me. In a really bad year, when most others gave few, and smaller than usual fruits, this one is still blushing a 1lb+ tomato almost daily, perfectly formed and beautiful. I can't wait to try it in a good year. |
Opalka was the most productive, followed by Black Cherry. Neither had exceptional flavor. Not bad, understand, just average. Best flavored were Marianna's Peace and Stump of the World; unfortunately these weren't terribly productive. |

Advancing the interests of Australia and Australians internationally
24 February, 2014
Australia's Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop (second from right), and Bro. Armin Luistro FSC, Philippines' Education Secretary, confirm arrangements for the Basic Education Sector Transformation (BEST) Program. Also present are H.E. Bill Tweddell, Australian Ambassador to the Philippines (right), and Benhur Abalos, Mayor of Mandaluyong.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop announced Australia would continue its education partnership with the Philippines by contributing $150 million over six years to the Basic Education Sector Transformation (BEST) Program.
Joined by Education Secretary Armin Luistro, Ms Bishop made the announcement at the Neptali Gonzales High School in Metropolitan Manila and said the package of support would provide eight million boys and girls in nearly 19,000 schools in the Philippines with a better education.
The Government of the Philippines has embarked on an ambitious plan to overhaul the education system with its K to 12 education reform agenda. The K to 12 reform agenda adds three years of mandatory schooling to bring the Philippines education system in line with ASEAN and international standards.
Evidence shows that the greater the number of years of schooling, the higher the household income, especially among women.
Through BEST, Australia will partner with the Department of Education to provide 1,000 scholarships to train new teachers, as well as re-training 240,000 existing teachers in the new curriculum.
BEST will build over 1,000 classrooms, half of which are in Super Typhoon Haiyan affected areas, 40 science and computer laboratories, and two Indigenous People's Learning Centres.

KC Masterpiece® Giddy-Up Chicken Sliders with Spicy Dill Pickles Print this recipe
4-6 servings
Cook time:
5 minutes Prep time:
30 minutes
Dry Rub
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
- 1½ teaspoons onion salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- 1 bottle KC Masterpiece® Original Barbecue Sauce
- 1 package dinner rolls
- 1 package Tyson®, boneless, skinless chicken breasts
spicy pickles
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ⅛ teaspoon hot sauce
- 16 ounces dill pickle chips
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- Halve each chicken breast lengthwise to make cutlets.
- Combine dry rub ingredients in a bowl. Liberally apply the mix to both sides of the cutlets.
- Place pickles in a bowl, keeping the jar and discarding the juice. Add sugar, red pepper flakes, hot sauce and garlic.
- Stir and let stand until the sugar dissolves. Place the mixture back into the pickle jar and refrigerate until needed. (Can be made in advance and keeps for one month in refrigeration.)
- Build a charcoal fire for direct grilling with Kingsford® charcoal.
- Once grill reaches 350°F, grill chicken directly over the hot coals for 2-3 minutes per side (or until the internal temperature reaches 165°Fand the center of the chicken is no longer pink).
- In a small saucepan, heat the KC Masterpiece® Barbecue Sauce until warm, about 5-10 minutes. Remove cutlets from the grill and dip them in the sauce.
- Assemble the sliders by slicing the dinner rolls, placing the chicken on the roll, and topping with spicy dill pickles. Spear with a toothpick and serve.
- *This recipe can use pork tenderlion as a substitute for chicken breast.

Although it can be truly uplifting to share our material treasure it is just as uplifting to share our inner treasure by giving away simple acts of kindness.
