I want to honor him in some meaning full way. With our Christmas tree going up I have been playing with creating an ornament of some sort. Has anyone done anything like this?View Thread
Any suggestions?
Also I am still feeling super nauseated, and all food makes me super sick to my stomach. Normal?View Thread
I'm new here, but have frequented some of the other boards. DH and I have been TTC for over 2 years now. I have PCOS and had been taking Metformin and Femara when we were finally surprised with our first BFP ever on 10/4. We we so happy!
Long story short, we lost our baby Monday. I went into the hospital due to intense bleeding, cramping and seeing clotting/tissue. They did a pelvic exam and drew blood to test my HCG levels. Today results from my second blood draw have officially confirmed the loss.
I'm amazed by how upset this has made me when I was only 5-6 weeks pregnant at the time of our loss. Already I felt attached to the little baby growing inside of me. I was so happy to finally be giving DH the son or daughter we'd been trying so long for. I know I'm fortunate that I m/c early, but it's hard to see the positive in something that seems so harsh, cruel and senseless.
I'm waiting to talk to my RE about where we go from here. We want to try again. That's scary, too. I'm terrified of having another m/c. I'm terrified of TTC again as well. I don't know that I can do it for another two years. Anyway, thanks for listening ladies.View Thread
I am new at this posting stuff but here it goes...
this past Feb we found out we were pregnant for the first time and having twins we were super excited I did all the things they say to do went to the doc for the high risk factor. everything was going fine and then on june 30th I began cramping and spotting so we went to the hospital and on the first of july I delivered two lovely angels though they were only with us for a few mins I love them so much ......
Well on a more positive note I think I am supose to be positive anyway I am pregnant again we were not trying it just happened I feel God had alot to do with it so am I to be happy or sad I feel judged as well and its driving me nuts please write back ...View Thread
My husband and I had been trying to get pregnant since May and we found out on August 12 that I was pregnant. We were very excited. But I spent the whole time being very nervous, I kept feeling as though this wasn't going to work out. My pregnancy was hell. the morning sickness was terrible, all food disgusted me, I couldn't sleep and when I did I had nightmares. I was moody. I was still so happy to be pregnant though.
A few weeks in I had terrible cramping so we went to the ER. They tested everything they could and told me they couldn't find anything wrong. My pregnancy wasn't far enough to be found on an ultrasound, so they sent me home. I had my blood tested every two days.
Then a few weeks ago I had another ultrasound. It was very happy, there was a sac and yolk in my uterus and they measured me as being at 5 weeks. I was so relieved, but my doctor called me and told me we weren't in the clear until there's a heart beat.
On Tuesday we went for another ultrasound, hoping to hear a heart beat. I was 7 weeks along. My cramps had stopped. I had a minor brown discharge that I was nervous about, but it was very slight.
So at the ultrasound, the woman kept taking pictures and doing her thing, then she said she would be right back. I had a really bad feeling, I knew the news wasn't good. she came back and handed me a phone. my doctor was on the line, she told me there was no progress and she recommend that I have a d&c. I was devastated.
I had the d&c on wednesday, that was three days ago. I am so lost. I feel so empty. my husband has been wonderful and supportive, which is good. they allowed me to take a week out of work. but I have to go back to work in 3 days and I do not want to.
I didn't have much bleeding after the d&c. only for a day and it stopped, now I only have that odd brown spotting again. I get cramps on and off.
I just feel so sad and alone. the timing was perfect, I was so thrilled about it because I knew exactly when I conceived. I've wanted a baby for many years, and I was so happy that my time finally came. but it's gone now. I can't get over how lost I feel.
I'm sorry about my horrible grammar, I stopped caring about writing correctly, I just wanted to vent and not care. if anybody has read this, I thank you. I would love to hear from anybody who has had similar experiences. I'm just so alone. View Thread
My question is could all of this been prevented and my baby been alive? Why now after baby died am I having all this bloodwork done? I keep thinking in my head what I could've done differently and baby would of been alive. I cant seem to get it out of my head that if I would've gone to hospital earlier, maybe my little angel would be alive today
I'm so confused and shattered by thisView Thread
Of course my best friend is a man who has been doing everything in his power to help me. Unfortunately plying me with food won't fill this hollowness. At this point I can barely eat anyways.
I guess I'm using this as a way to get everything I can't tell them off my chest.
I feel smothered. I feel hollow and guilty and like I have to put on a brave face for everyone. I can' cry unless I am completely alone (which is very very rare), I can't sleep, I can barely eat, I feel like I want to be surrounded and cuddled but at the same time I want to be left alone. I'm confused and sore and scared.. And most of all I just want someone who has a clue as to how I feel to help me through this.View Thread
My bleeding from MC stopped about 2 weeks ago.
I had a natural miscarriage, it took a month to actually be finished. It was the longest month I have ever experienced. May 25/12 the ultrasound read baby was 8weeks and I was supposed to be 9 weeks. It was the worst news being my first pregnancy, I was devistated.
It was two weeks (June6) later the MC actually happened, it was incomplete then three days later I had to go to emerg because thats when it was finishing. I was there for 13hrs, 2 IV bags and heart rate monitored. They thought I needed to have a D&C but by the time they prepped me for surgery everything came out, so I didn't end up having one. It was such a horrible experience but I am so thankful for having such a wonderful fiancee who was with me through all of this. He is such a strong and supportive man I don't know what I would have done if I had to do this alone.
I was finally feeling back to my normal self a couple days ago, then AF started yesterday and today I am so emotional, its been such a long and painful process, I hope this just gets better with time.View Thread

When I was young I would see these often. I think I called them June bugs then. I have seen very few till this year and I am wondering if these are the type of bugs that Carol and Dorothy have talked about that cause a lot of damage? These thing are all over my deck. Is there something I need to do to protect myself from over population of these bugs next year? Thanks, Larry. |

Larry I believe that grub worms turn into June bugs. I'm not sure if they damage anything or not as adults. |
- Posted by borderokie none (My Page) on Fri, Aug 2, 13 at 23:58
Looked them up. They eat tree leaves. Bad thing is they lay eggs that become grubs |
Larry, I thought I had posted something about them back in May. We had a ton of them at NSU and people were freaking out. But then someone found that our local CO-OP was handing out a leaflet from OSU, which explained that this is not a June bug but rather a highly beneficial insect called the Fiery Searcher. I have been delighted to find these busily working my corn plants, before day break. They eat garden pests. I have only read that they go for caterpillars. Bu they must eat other pests too, as I don't have caterpillars in my corn, mainly just grasshoppes. George |

Our "June Bugs" are the plain brown variety. |

Larry, those are not the Japanese Beetles that Carol and I talked about. JPs are smaller and have less green and more copper. And the JPs are gone now; haven't seen one for almost 3 weeks. What you have looks like what we used to call June Bugs, which ermerge in July here. We have a few of them, but not a lot. At my Dad's though there are hundreds of them. I wanted to see the link that George posted but so far my computer is balking. |
- Posted by slowpoke_gardener 6/7 (My Page) on Sat, Aug 3, 13 at 10:41
Mia, I have a lot of brown ones also, they seem to be a little smaller and will land on the shredded leaf mulch and be buried in 3 or 4 seconds. Of course I Have more grubs, moles and armadillos than I want also. This is the second year I have tried "no till gardening" in part of my garden. I seem to have more insects when I don't till. One thing I like about my Mantis tiller is that it is a real "Grub Grinder". |
Larry, To me, the beetles in your hand look like Green June Beetles, which also sometimes are called Green June Bugs, but I've always known them as green scarab beetles because in Texas we called the little brown beetles June Bugs, even though they were more abundant in May. In the link below, you can see a photo of a Green June Beetle on the left at the top of the page and a photo of a Japanese Beetle at the right for comparison's sake. At our house we have both the fiery searchers that are shown in George's link and the Green June Beetles in small quantities, more so in spring than in the heat of the summer---so sometimes as early as April (in 2011 we had them out in March but it was hot very early that year). We have oodles of the little brown June bugs like Mia mentioned, but for us they usually are most abundant here at our place from late April through late May in a typical year. I only see one occasionally after May, and I mean really occasionally, like maybe once a week. We're so far south that our bug cycles here are earlier than much of the rest of the state. The fiery searchers were more numerous this year than in previous years. They can get really huge and if I didn't know that they were good guys, seeing them would freak me out. Whenever I had to do the springtime 'frost is coming, cover up the plants" routine about once a week this year, I'd always find fiery searchers on top of the floating row covers every morning when I went outside to uncover the plants. One disadvantage of no-till gardening is that it is harder to kill pests since you aren't rototilling them and exposing them to the elements. You can spread Milky Spore Powder on lawn areas in August to treat the grubs that get in the lawn. It is an organic product. For insects that overwinter in garden soil, you can use beneficial nematodes which will kill many soil-dwelling pests. The nematodes are very small and invisible to the human eye but they are pretty effective when the soil is treated at the right time. You can apply beneficial nematodes with a watering can or a hose-end sprayer. Dawn |
Here is a link that might be useful: Green June Beetles vs. Japanese Beetles
The brown ones are may beetles amd the green ones are june bugs. At least thats we always called them, but really, i just call them all June bugs. . As for the june bugs, yes, the eggs become grubs and the grubs become the bug..... But, the grubs will eat vegetation underground and the bugs can destroy a lawn if you are overrun. This is all from what i was told my by MIL several years ago. Other than, my problem is with armadillos trying to dig up my flower beds to get to the grubs. That is personal experience. Emma |

Ever since I was a child, I've heard the small brown ones called May Beetles. I still haven't been able to see the Fiery Searcher--lazy computer. |
Dorothy, I'll find and link a photo of just the fiery searcher. George's link was a blog. Maybe your computer doesn't want to load the whole blog. I have had to double click on links here at GW lately to get them to load. I don't know why. One click used to work just fine. Among other things, the fiery searchers eat CPBs. Dawn |

Thanks, Dawn. I never knew such a thing existed. They seem to be a little bigger and fiercer looking than the June Beetles that Larry had. I'll have to look closely and see if we have them. Have a ton of Assasin Bugs aka Wheel Bugs this year though. And too many grasshoppers though not as many as George has. |
You're welcome, Dorothy. I've been seeing those fiery searchers for a good 6 or 8 years. They might have been here earlier and I might not have been paying attention. This year I had to cover up the potato beds over and over again with all those late freezes and I always saw the fiery searchers there. They are pretty fierce and I wouldn'[t mess with one because it just might bite me. I'm glad to see them though, since they are good garden helpers. Every morning I think of George's grasshoppers when I walk out to the garden or compost pile and watch the hoppers fly up around me with every step I take. There's more and more every day and, while the numbers I am seeing are increasingly worse, they still don't come close to the population George has had this year. We have has lots of wheel bugs too, and now we are seeing lots of those awful leaf-footed bugs. Stink bugs were worse a month ago than they are now, so at least there's that. August is the cruelest month, between the heat and the pests. I'm just counting the days until September and cooler weather with lower pest levels. Dawn |
I have now proven, by personal experience, that wheel bugs bite humans, and that it really hurts! The other day I was trying to set a bucket of water over a barbed wire fence. I leaned over and rested my hand on the wire (between barbs) so as to push the wire down and avoid the barbs. What I didn't realize was that there was a wheel bug sitting on that wire, right where I pushed down. He got me good! It felt more like a bite than a bee sting. But the pain lasted about like a bee sting and it hurt that much. I grabbed my hand and... apologized for mashing down on him. There are a few plants/places which are especially popular with the grasshoppers. I sometimes come upon, as many as five wheel bugs at those places. They are obviously having a great time. I wish I had the capability of taking close up pictures in the dark. While vacuuming I have seen some beautiful and interesting things. I've come upon an inch long green praying mantis, sitting on the crown of an okra plant, looking like she just wanted to grow, so she could eat those grasshoppers around her. I've found tree frogs on my corn, obviously hunting insects. I have two winter squash which have survived the squash bugs and grasshoppers and look like they will produce. Old Timey Cornfield Pumpkin is out where the grasshoppers are at their worst. They have stripped a number of its leaves. But it is growing faster than they are eating and really beginning to cover a lot of ground. This morning I took the time to vacuum a lot of grasshoppers off of it, hoping to give it more breathing space. The other, a White Cushaw from Illinois, is in a garden with just a little less grasshopper pressure, due to our poultry being nearby. The White Cushaw has not been affected at all, and it's setting on fruit now. George |
- Posted by slowpoke_gardener 6/7 (My Page) on Sun, Aug 4, 13 at 8:47
George, there are so many interesting things about your post. First, I think the wheel bugs are interesting, I have a few, but not near as many as last year. Second, if your squash and pumpkins are sitting fruit it gives me hope that mine are sitting fruit in time for a good harvest. ( have set 100 finished fruit as a goal, and at the rate things are going I expect to exceed my goal.) I took a closer look this morning and it looks like the June bugs are eating my plants, but not near as bad as the grasshoppers. Larry |
- Posted by mulberryknob z6OK (My Page) on Sun, Aug 4, 13 at 11:24
George, Glenn learned that wheel bugs bite a couple years ago. Somehow one ended up caught between his slide strap and his foot and bit him. He said it was really painful. Dawn, so far August is wonderful at our house temp wise but if it stays as cloudy as it has started out, the plants are going to be needing sun. |
George, I always heard that wheel bugs could inflict a pretty painful bite. I'm sorry that one got you. We have had the wheel bugs in odd places this year, including sitting on brown lawn furniture. The cushions have flowers, so maybe they think the cushions will attract something for them to eat. We've also had them sitting on the water faucet, so I do have to watch where I put my hands. I know that I have fruit on Long Island Cheese, Old-Timey Cornfield Pumpkin and Seminole, but haven't ventured into the pumpkin/winter squash jungle to see if the other varieties have set. One C. moschata died, and it looked like bacterial wilt. I had had squash bugs on a yellow straightneck near it earlier in the year, so they may have vectored the wilt to that C. moschata that wilted (think it was Long of Naples but could have been Musquee de Provence). Larry, It's too bad that the grasshoppers and June bugs don't eat each other. That would be wonderful, wouldn't it? Are any of y'all seeing blister beetles? I have seen a moderate number of squash bugs (tried to kill them all and squish their eggs), quite a few leaf-footed bugs but only 1 or 2 blister beetles. Normally, I wouldn't miss the blister beetles, but we need them here to eat grasshopper eggs this fall or next year will be pretty awful. Dorothy, I'm glad y'all are having a good August. About the best thing I can say about this summer is that it was pretty wonderful until August arrived. That's okay, though. We always are miserably hot, dry and overrun by pests in August, so it isn't like it is anything new. Our heat index for most of the last week has been between 105-110, so I try to get out, do my work and get back inside ridiculously early. I get bored in August because it is too hot and I am stuck indoors too much just to escape the heat. With this heat, our grasses are drying up too quickly. Pastures that were a gorgeous green only one week ago are now turning tan. I am kind of shocked at how fast it is drying out again. I wish we could send you sunshine and y'all could send us clouds and rain. It would be a nice swap. I've moved all the containers (except for 5 in the back garden that are too heavy to move) onto the patio where they get morning sun until around noon, and then are in full shade. We now have so many plants on the patio that a person cannot really walk or sit on it, but the cats and the grasshoppers stay there in the shade a lot. I'm not moving the plants off the patio until it cools off a bit. Now we are getting those huge grasshoppers that are yellowish and about 5" long.They fly in from the fields. I hate them.They don't seem to have much fear of humans and sometimes they land on my finger or in my hair. I try to stomp them to death when I see one on the ground, but they are fast and usually jump before I can get them. I guess that is what passes for gardening work in August....trying to stomp big grasshoppers to death. The hummingbirds are on the move. I think some have begun migrating because the traffic at our hummingbird feeders has increased a great deal in the last week or so. This year I've noticed lots of hummingbirds visiting the plants growing on the fence in the back garden, particularly the area where there's winter squash growing on the fence. They seem fascinated with the huge yellow blooms. Dawn |

I have seen some black blister beetles, they don't seem to run in packs like the striped ones do. The past two years I have been over run with the striped ones, but so far this year I have seen none. |
I've seen, perhaps 100 black blister beetles. But they haven't been in packs. The most I've seen together were about a dozen, and I got them all. Both the black and the striped run in packs here. But the striped are harder to deal with as they are faster and more agile. Dorothy, I grew up with these cloudy skies and frequent showers. Don't worrry. The plants will do well. There is a lot more solar power coming through those clouds than one would think. George |
- Posted by mulberryknob z6OK (My Page) on Sun, Aug 4, 13 at 19:37
I grew up with foggy mornings all summer, George, living only a mile up from Puget Sound, and can remember well getting sunburned on a "cloudy" day. So I'm not complaining about the last few cloudy days. It's a welcome break and allows us to be in the garden for longer each morning. (I do remember that we didn't get tomatoes until August in Washington, and couldn't grow okra at all. We had lettuce and pole beans all summer though.) |

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 Joey!
Facts about Joey
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tiger Striped
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Joey's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with cats.
An adorable cat, very affectionate, loves to play, and has the cutest face!
Other Pets at Hope for Cats, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Joey, a North Boston Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in North Boston, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in North Boston.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in North Boston 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 North Boston 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 Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in North Boston paves the way for another one to be saved.

Our winning #RTZ Tweet from Monday courtesy of @TTOTambz is right. To see JJ Redick join a growing rogues gallery of Raptors heartbreakers this season seems like a less than deserving fate for a team that's been outgunned for much of the season, but rarely outworked for over a month now.
But as head coach Dwane Casey pointed out post-game, the fight should be commended but it's the slip — not the fall — that's doing the Raptors in. In Monday's 92-88 loss to the visiting Magic for example, it came when they were down 83-78 with 4:29 to play. What followed was a sequence that went Raptors turnover, Dwight Howard hook shot, missed Toronto long jumper resulting in a Jason Richardson fast-break dunk the other way and the Magic lead was back up to nine with three minutes to play.
According to Casey, that's simply hard won wisdom there's no way of bypassing on the way to becoming a consistent winner.
"The experience factor you can't rush it, you can't teach it, you can't give it to them," said Casey. "I see fight every night. There are periods where I have to get on them and push them like every other game, but I see guys caring, I see passion and I don't see give in."
So now it's on to the final game of this four-game homestand on Wednesday against the Rockets, where the Raptors get a prime opportunity to show some of that growth against a team that exploited similar errors in execution a week ago in Houson. Until then here's a special "Top 15″ edition of #RTZ Tweets from yesterday's game:
Top #RTZ Tweets — Raptors vs. Magic
@JustinCNSThe Magic have destroyed the @raptors from the 3 pt line. Raptors need to defend the 3 point line tight. Play Dwight straight up!! #RTZ
@Darkstar_Inc I think all #Raptors fans enjoyed watching Hedo lead that break and dish it out to the lady in the front row. #GoodRiddance #RTZ
@BarryMRubin @DeMar_DeRozan is about to heat up like a @reddtagvacations trip #RTZ

I LOVE giving pretty packages and honestly who doesn't love getting something pretty. I feel that pretty packaging makes all the difference when giving a gift. I love the simplicity of plain paper, white or natural, and using creative elements (such as ribbon, candy, tree trimmings) to dress them up. Sometimes the patterned papers can take away from the beauty of the package.
Here are a few simple but oh so pretty wrapping ideas for anyone on your Christmas list this year!
Merry Christmas and happy wrapping,

Southern Airways Express Begins Booking Flights
Memphis-based Southern Airways Express said it has received final approval from the U.S. Department of Transportation to begin operations.
The airline's website, iFlySouthern.com, also is now available for booking flights from Memphis to Destin, Fla., Panama City, Fla. and Gulf Shores, Ala. Later this month, Southern Airways Express also will add service from Memphis to New Orleans.
"We expect our summer 2013 schedule to be in full swing by June 26th, in time for family vacations and Independence Day travel," said Stan Little, CEO and Chairman of Southern Airways Express.
The airline, which is backed by local investors who have chosen to remain anonymous, will help fill nonstop service gaps left by major carriers, Little said. Fares on all flights will range from $129 to $249 each way.

I'm thinking of buying an Earthway Seeder and I'd love to hear some feddback about them. I'd like to use it for planting carrots and lettuce, because it is so difficult to plant them evenly. Has anyone used them for this, and how has it worked? |

We just bought ours this year and have not used it yet. We bought it primarily for sweet corn seed as we are doubling our crop this year. We sold out last year two hours into the market. Will be watching to see what answers you get. Sorry couldn't help. |

It seems to plant carrots in little bunches that still have to be thinned but much easier than hand planting. Plus you can have the company make custom plates for you if you want different sized seed cups or spacing. It's a nice unit for the price. Tom |
Thanks for the info, Tom. Which plate do you use for the carrot seeds? I see 2 listed, one which is standard when you buy the seeder, and one called "light" seeding. Do you use the same one for lettuce? |
Hello I think they are worth every penny ( AND MORE !!!!!!) If you want to seed small seeds more evenly, mix them up with about 1/3 to 1/2 sand, you will get more even seeding and less thinning out . Works well on red beets, or in case of carrots, mix some radish seed ( they mature so early and by harvesting them you create room for the carrots ) Hope this will help . Have a great day Jan . |

sundacks, the seeder hasn't made the move to here yet so don't know which one I used. I start lettuce underlights in plug trays. Tom |

Love my Earthway! I need to order another before it's time to plant again. I'm going to hook two together side by side. I'm linking to Red Hill General Store. They have the best price I've found. I ordered my first seeder from them and have ordered replacement plates too. I've always received my order in three or four days. |

Those with experience, have you used the Earthway or other seeders for sowing soaked seeds such as sweet peas? I wonder if it would crush them? |
- Posted by herbalistic 5 (My Page) on Sat, May 31, 08 at 17:36
I have one and I never use it. One year I remembered I had it and should use it but when I tried to use it for corn , it did not sow very evenly and seemed to dump a lot of seed in one spot rather than spacing it out more evenly. I have a couple fairly large gardens so you'd think I should get a lot of use out of it now, but I don't want to waste seed by dumping it all in one spot so I don't use it. Besides, I kind of like the connection I feel to the earth by hand seeding. I feel I have a little more control. I've even been thinking of selling mine coz it is just sitting in a storeroom unused. I think I'd be afraid to see what would happen with carrot seed. |
- Posted by hanselmanfarms (My Page) on Mon, Mar 16, 09 at 10:37
I love mine for small seeds, but I have problems with the larger seeds like beans, peas, and corn. Mine (all 4 of them)spit/pop the large seeds out the top, or get stuck behind the plate. Any suggestions? I have put "bonnets" on top of the seed holders to keep the seeds from popping out, but still have the sticking problem. |

In regard to Earthway Seeders, I wouldn't be without mine!! I have 5 in use every year, 3 of which are mounted side-by-side 12 inches apart on a light angleiron frame. I use these for turnips, collards, lettuce, cabbage, beets,etc. I have used the single ones to plant lima beans & corn with no problems. The corn plate sows the seed about 8 inches apart. The light plate for carrots works well for planting turnips for roots, and for collards and cabbage. |
for big seeds in the earthway seeder - I seed peas, but not corn, I use the large pea plate, but in order to get it not to stick and with less popping, fill it only to the "fill line" or lower is even better. It makes it a hassle, but I just carry extra seeds in a bucket with me to fill it up more often. |
- Posted by hanselmanfarms (My Page) on Thu, Mar 19, 09 at 6:55
thanks for the tip regarding the large seeds, I'll try that. My back really likes the seeder vs hand seeding. I have put a plastic bag with extra seeds or plates on that handle. Just tied it on above the spacer of the handle. |
Try adding a little talcum powder to the hopper. Just sprinkle it over the seed. Makes everything flow better. Bud |
Used my seeder last year for cover cropping a large area with oats - very useful. Also tried carrot seeds, which I liked because it reduced thinning. I did go over the rows a couple of times with the carrots, because it seemed to come out a little sparse. |
I have been researching these and from what I can find, people say to buy the Jang Clean Precision Seeder. They say that the earthway puts out too many seeds at once but the Jang seeder wastes less. Earthway is much cheaper. The single row Jang seeder is 395.00 plus each roller that you need for different size seeds is $21. This is Canadian prices from Willsies. http://www.willsie.com/brochures/seeder_brochure_january_2010.pdf |

I hooked 3 together. Basically, I used a all-thread 18" or 24" inch rod, washers and wing nuts. Took the 2 axles out (1 at a time), replacing with the rod. Placed the seeders at the locations that I wanted with washers and wingnuts on either side of seeder. This way, I could change the distances between rows. It worked every well, I would suggest tying the handles together somehow and add alittle weight over the 'wheels'. If your garden bed is very smooth, the Earthway works well, especially with small seeds. No thinning needed. My parents used my first one and bought the rest of them at yard sales. I have a total of 4 now, and don't use them much, only because my garden beds are acres and not smooth. For a large gardener, they work well. For truck farmers, not so well. Only because of the amount planted. Marla |

I have not used a Jang but keep hearing from those who do if the seed bed is not perfectly smooth and free of all rocks and stones it will not work well at all. that pretty much made my mind up to stay with the Earthway seeders we have as we have a lot of stones, rocks, cobbles and boulders on our farm that would just get in the way of the Jang. Now, if I had sandy loam soils than the Jang would probably work better than the Earthway And Know the Earthway Seeder is made in America (Bristol, IN), the Jang is Korean made. |

I have two Earthways. I bought one from the company and another off Craig's List. I like this machine. I have had problems with it with beans and peas. I believe that is due to lack of experience and I'm not ready to stop using it yet. I especially found it useful with large plots of radishes, carrots, chard, salad mix and scallions. Be careful about going back and forth because you think the planting is sparse or you will end up doing a lot of unnecessary thinning. |
- Posted by tulsacityfarmer 6 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Tue, May 24, 11 at 10:30
I'm going to try that talcam. I use a spiecal plate i bought from 'Jonny's seeds" they sell for pelleted lettuce.It was high I think $30. but well worth it. |
- Posted by WisconsinRon none (My Page) on Tue, Jul 1, 14 at 20:40
I've been using an Earthway for quite a few years and found that mixing the radish and carrot seeds together using the radish plate works quite uniquely. Yes, it plants both together in the same row mixing the entire length with radishes and carrots, but the results are pretty neat. The radishes germinate and come up first, which helps mark the row location and then the carrots emerge a little later. They grow well together and is especially beneficial for the carrots, providing them with stability and shade. When the radishes ripen and are sporadically pulled depending on ripeness, it creates more room for the carrots to grow and also thins them out a bit. By the time all the radishes are pulled, you have strong carrots that require minimum thinning. The other benefit is that the radishes help loosen the soil for the carrots' root growth. I've been doing it for years and it still works great, |
- Posted by little_minnie 4 (My Page) on Fri, Jul 4, 14 at 23:17
I do that too. I also have done old parsnip seed mixed with the carrot and radish. Some germinates and some just acts as a thinner. The only drawback to carrots and radish together is if you plan to do a weed torching of the carrots. The radish germinate too quickly to allow that. |
What proportions of radish to carrot are you using? I've been using pelleted carrot seed and like it. However I bought the plate from Johnny's for pelleted seed ($30) and was not happy with it. It seemed to crush the pellets. So I played around with all the other plates and discovered that the spinach plate puts 2-3 seeds every 2-3 inches. Works about perfect for me. Little or no thinning but even sowing. Kathy |
I use two Earthway planters. One is a stock planter and the second is attached to the rear of one of my garden tractors, using a sleeve hitch. Plant with the garden tractor for about everthing, except carrots. Proper depth is too inportant with them. |

5000 Loan – What You Need to Know
The 5000 loan has taken over the internet. I don't know if $5000 is a common amount of money that people require, but I have been unable to find any true program called 5000 loans. It is rumored that banks offer loans up to 5000 with no credit check if you've maintained a checking account for a year and earn more than $1000 per month. These sites are very aggressive, with shady comments at the bottom saying how the loan changed their life. No loan is going to change your life, think about it. They are just hoping that in your need you will rush into a bad decision. Often these businesses aren't real and will collect your fee money and vanish. If the front page of the site has spelling mistakes it's not a good first sign.
I suspect the 5000 personal loan is an internet invention intended to collect fees from unsuspecting people. If you need a 5000 cash loan and have a low income, you're going to have to offer some collateral. It's hard for anyone to have confidence that the loan will be paid back if there is not money coming in. The 5000 unsecured loan just isn't feasible. By offering something of value to be tied to the loan you're proving to the lender that their note is safe.
Let's evaluate why that would be crazy for any bank to offer this service. If you borrow $5000 for 10% per year on a 3 year loan the payment would be $161 per month. If all they required to make this loan is $1000 per month income this loan would cost you 16% of everything you make. That is a big risk to take without seeing how much you currently pay to other people. Food generally costs around $200 a month and rent around $500 a month for low end income. That is 70% of everything you make right there. That doesn't leave a lot of room for another $161. There is no way banks that intend to earn money could make this loan without looking at your credit history. If the government forced it on the banks it would be offered as a welfare program through the social services offices and not online.
If you are this situation you should really consider why you need a 5000 dollar loan. Living above your means is no way to ever become wealthy. Loans for 5000 aren't going to change your world. It will more likely provide you some temporary relief from your problem, but leaving you a payment you can't consistently afford. What things actually cost $5000? If you need a car just talk to a used car dealer, if you need a vacation you must save for it, if you need medical treatment the hospital will care for you and work a payment plan you can afford. There is nothing you have to have that you need loans for 5000. Money troubles are the core of most relationship troubles. If you are married I especially urge you to avoid the 5000 loan. However, if what you are really looking for is an actual loan for $5000, then read the other articles on this site to find out some different ways you can get a $5,000 loan.

A panel of three judges has decided to whom the vast majority of the $1 million reward offered in the manhunt for rogue ex-cop Christopher Dorner will go.
Tied-up couple to get most of $1 million Christopher Dorner manhunt reward
LOS ANGELES - A panel of three judges has decided that the vast majority of the $1 million reward offered in the manhunt for rogue ex-cop Christopher Dorner will go to a couple he tied up in their Southern California mountain cabin.
The Los Angeles Police Department posted a document on its website Tuesday detailing the payouts for the much-sought reward, and it said about $800,000 will go to James and Karen Reynolds.
The judges wrote that they awarded the money according to the "comparative value of the information provided and how directly it causally led to Dorner's capture."
Daniel McGowan, who found Dorner's burning truck in the Big Bear area where he eventually was discovered, will get $150,000, and $50,000 will go to tow truck driver R.L. McDaniel, who reported spotting Dorner at a gas station earlier in the manhunt.
Dorner had vowed warfare on LAPD officers and their families for what he called an unfair firing. He killed four people, including two law enforcement officers, during his nearly one-week run from authorities that ended with his death on Feb. 12.
The reward, gathered through dozens of law enforcement and other organizations, was announced by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Police Chief Charlie Beck during Dorner's rampage, but details on the payout were murky, leading to months of competing legal claims and controversy.
A dozen parties came forward claiming they provided the key tip that ultimately led Dorner to hole up in a vacant mountain cabin where he apparently took his own life after a shootout with deputies.
The manhunt was under way Feb. 7 when McDaniel spotted Dorner at a gas station in Corona. He was about to call police when he spotted an LAPD squad car and alerted the officers.
"As the officers interviewed Mr. McDaniel, Dorner's vehicle turned back," the judges wrote. "Mr. McDaniel positively identified the truck," and officers gave chase immediately.
That chase led to two shootouts between Dorner and police that left an officer dead.
Dorner then escaped 50 miles northeast to Big Bear, but that wouldn't be known until the next breakthrough in the investigation, the document said.
McGowan, who works for the Snow Summit ski resort in Big Bear Lake, called authorities Feb. 7 after he spotted a burning truck on the side of a rarely used, unpaved fire route. He called authorities, who discovered the truck belonged to Dorner.
That information initiated an intense, focused search for Dorner. Officers went door-to-door in the following days, but it wasn't until Feb. 12 that they received their next fruitful tip.
Karen Reynolds called authorities to say Dorner had held her and her husband at gunpoint and tied them up before stealing their purple Nissan SUV to escape.
Karen Reynolds identified Dorner, gave the location of the cabin and the Nissan's description. Less than half an hour later, he was spotted by Fish and Wildlife wardens and a chase ensued.
Dorner then crashed the Reynolds' vehicle and carjacked camp ranger Rick Heltebrake, and it was his vehicle that was tracked to a cabin where Dorner later died.
Heltebrake filed a lawsuit last week seeking the $1 million reward but did not submit a claim under the reward's process, according to the document.
A message seeking comment was left for Heltebrake's lawyer.

The payout of a $1.2 million reward offered in the hunt for rogue ex-cop Christopher Dorner could turn into a fight before anyone sees a penny.
At least six fired police officers want their disciplinary cases reopened after the Los Angeles Police Department began reinvestigating the termination of a former officer who left a trail of violence to avenge his firing.
Police Sgt. Emada Tingirides heard the fear in her husband's voice on the phone and stopped the patrol car. Her first thought was that one of their six kids had been killed.
Los Angeles police Chief Charlie Beck says the review of ex-officer Christopher Dorner's firing is under way, but it's too early to comment on the re-examination.
Fugitive ex-cop Christopher Dorner apparently killed himself as the cabin he was barricaded in caught fire following a shootout with officers.

I am so glad to hear that Sabra Dipping is constructing a development facility in our backyard. The increased investment and growth will result in much needed jobs for our region. It is important to remember that for our region to attract companies, we must create the right atmosphere. That means supporting Congressman Randy Forbes who has pushed for less regulations and lower taxes. If our elected officials do not create such an environment, nobody will. Every time I dip into some Sabra hummus, I'll remember to support elected officials who support the development of that company.

Couple of questions on 2.8/3.0
Hi guys, I was just wondering a couple of things about 2.8 and 3.0:
1. How will the "lean" system work? Will you be able to lean around a corner by a varying amount (i.e. using a "Lean" key + mouse movement) or will there just be "Lean Left" and "Lean Right" commands that cause you to lean a fixed amount? 2. With the crouching/prone positions, will you be able to bind a key to drop from a standing position to a prone position, or will you have to cycle through Crouch first? Also, will the Prone position work with a held key like Crouch does now, or will it be a toggle instead (hit key X to lie prone, hit X again to get up)? 3. In the news about some of the missing elements in the initial 2.8 release, you mention "inventory pickup system"...what is that referring to? The Loadout system? Or the ability to selectively raid dead friends or enemies? Will the Loadout system be working in the initial release, even though the weight and bulk system isn't set up yet? 4. In the Roadmap, when talking about aiming, it says that a visible circular reticule will appear when aiming. However, from the posts on the boards, I was under the impression that there would be no visible aiming aid at all, aside from the weapon sights. Which is right? (I know there will at least be an *invisible* circular reticule bounding the possible area your shots will go, as the Roadmap describes... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img] ) 5. Will any of the extra game mode classes be available in 2.8, or will those not be here till 3.0? [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img] Thanks, DennyK AKA LordDeimos |

Not too sure about the first 3 but
4. They will be no reticule at all. You will either have to use the sights on the gun or the scope/aimpoint device if availible. 5. Nope, no extra game types until post 2.8... It is impossible for the glass to be half full or half empty for you see: there is no glass |

Explore. Honor. Be.
These three words are central to who we are and what we do in The Cultural Centers at USF. The Intercultural Center began as Multicultural and International Student Services and over the years, has become a space for all to explore the complexities of our multiple identities. By beginning with oneself, we are taking responsibility for understanding who we are and the impact we have in the world to be agents of change for social good. While each of us are working on better understanding our own identities, we must honor that others may or may not be deeply reflecting on their own identities as well. Finally, as you continue in your college career to strive towards magis (to be more, greater), you can fully strive to, in the words of Ghandi, "be the change you wish to see in the world."
The Intercultural Center and The Gender & Sexuality Center and our programs are open to who wish to strive towards magis. The staff is committed to providing space for all to explore issues regarding identity, social justice, and equality. We are also committed to the development, success, and achievement of historically underserved and underrepresented students, LGBTQ individuals and their allies. The staff and I look forward to seeing you at our programs at events and in the Centers, located in the University Center, on the 4th floor, in rooms 411 and 412.

Fresh from the Lab: One Roll of Film and the Lubitel 166U
Adi, Ekeu, and I did a lomowalk around downtown Bandung last Saturday, the beginning of November. We planned to use our Lubitel cameras with only one roll of film each. We were inspired by the One Roll of Film Project by four Tokyo-based photographers with their Hasselblad cameras. This is about the one roll of film I shot with the Lubitel 166U, which made me love shooting in medium format even more. -

The fight, Damion Easley said early Thursday about the Diamondbacks' current plight, is against the demons of "Here we go again." The demons of "Will I get another hit?" Of "Will I get another batter out?"
And despite the their best efforts over eight innings, the D-Backs' fight will last at least one more day.
The D-Backs suffered what manager Bob Melvin called the most difficult defeat of their 3-20 streak, failing to hold a one-run lead in the top of the ninth inning in a 3-2 loss to Seattle before 20,654 at Chase Field, a game that proved even closer Jorge Julio is not invulnerable.
Julio had converted his previous five save attempts since assuming the closer's role June 1, but Seattle cleanup hitter Raul Ibanez hit the fifth pitch he saw for a game-tying home run off the batter's eye in center field to open the ninth.
Kenji Johjima, who had five hits and seven RBIs in the series, tripled into the right-field corner with one out and, after Julio struck out Jeremy Reed, Yuniesky Betancourt singled to center for the game winner.
"I feel bad for the team. I need to help this team,'' said Julio, who has given up just four earned runs in 16 innings since coming to the D-Backs.
"I saw it hit over the yellow line. It was clear. That's why I wasn't throwing a temper tantrum,'' said center fielder Eric Byrnes.
Of Ibanez's homer, Byrnes said Julio "made the right pitch. It was 3-1, he didn't want to walk him. He just happened to run into it. It was a mid-90s fastball. "(Julio) did what he had to do. That's exactly what we wanted him to do. We're just in a run of bad luck.''
The D-Backs (37-42) fell five games below .500 for the first time this season as they embark on a nine-game road trip that concludes at the All-Star break.
"What are you going to do? We've seen about everything during this. This was our toughest loss,'' manager Bob Melvin said.
The D-Backs are 7-20 in June, assured of their worst June in history, although Melvin's job is not in jeopardy, according to the man who has the final say.
"He is very much a part of the solution,'' said general manager Josh Byrnes, whose D-Backs hold options on Melvin for 2007 and 2008 seasons. "He's done a very good job through a difficult stretch, and I don't think it reflects poorly on him.''
Melvin was ejected for the third time in eight games for arguing Ibanez's homer, which appeared to hit over the yellow home run line in center field but originally was ruled in play by second base umpire Ron Kulpa.
Ibanez ended up at third on the play, after which Mariners manager Mike Hargrove asked for a review. The umpires huddled and then signaled a home run, which brought Melvin out of the dugout.
"My argument was, the guy who was closest to the play made the call got overruled. It seems like it happens every time,'' said Melvin, who saw a similar play called against the D-Backs in Philadelphia last season.
Enrique Gonzalez gave up one run and three hits in seven innings, saying he tweaked his mechanics in a bullpen session between starts to be able to pitch down in the strike zone, and he scored both D-Backs' runs after singling in the third and reaching on an error in the fifth.
"Offensively, we have to do better than that, when the pitcher scores both runs and has good at-bats,'' Melvin said.
"We have to find a way to get better at-bats throughout the order.

Rollei's Bullet HD Action Camera Shoots Pictures, Not People
Rollei's Bullet HD Action Camera sort of reminds me of that 1938 revolver that shot a picture when you pulled the trigger. I wouldn't want to be the person who's picture was being taken with that thing, since, you know, it would probably be my last and all.
But expect nothing of that sort with Rollei's newest shooter.
It's definitely not as small as a regular bullet. I mean, if it were, I don't think Rollei could slap "HD" beside its name because it probably wouldn't be able to take images better than VGA quality.
The Rollei Bullet HD is built with a 12-megapixel CMOS sensor and is equipped with a 170 degree wide angle lens. While its shape might seem like more of a novelty for some people, it can actually make for a much useful camera, say, when you want to mount it, as you can see below, and in the demo videos over on YouTube.
The Rollei Bullet HD can record HD video in 720p and has a built-in microSD card slot for added memory. The pack comes bundled with a 4 GB microSD card and will be shipping out later this month with a price tag of $350.

You're already doing a great job with the website and the blog. I love the content here and I'm always glad to come back and read some toughts on photography – be it gear, shooting or something else, loved the recent video for Samsung. I love that it isn't a gear review site. I'd suggest you keep doing what you are and adding some odd piece of gear you found interesting and think people don't know enough about or don't use it enough or in the right way.
If someone wants a review there are already sites that do them and are doing only that. This site isn't that and it should never be.It's not like it's hard to find a review today for anything.

In physics, the change in direction of motion of a particle because of a collision with another particle. The collision can occur between two charged particles; it need not involve direct physical contact. Experiments show that the trajectory of the scattered particle is a hyperbola and that, as the bombarding particle is aimed more closely toward the scattering centre, the angle of deflection decreases. The term scattering is also used for the diffusion of electromagnetic waves by the atmosphere, resulting, for example, in long-range radio reception on the ground. See also Rayleigh scattering.

Married for nine years and a photography team for five, Brian and Jennifer Hartman bring an artistic touch and approach to their on-location photography. Employing a photojournalistic style and dramatic lighting, they capture solo subjects and groups during posed and candid moments, earning critical acclaim from the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association and The Knot and placing images in the pages of Elle and Seattle Bride magazines.
Not content to simply point and shoot, the Hartmans light compositions using chiaroscuro or high-exposure natural lighting and often accentuate subjects with extreme angles, forced perspective, or unique natural surroundings. They shoot in vibrant color or black and white, and can edit photos to enhance colors or, by request, replace each subject?s face with Winston Churchill?s. Though the Hartmans use professional tools, they?re glad to help students break into photography via ultra-accessible devices such as the iPhone?following in the footsteps, they note, of Annie Leibovitz, who endorsed the iPhone?s camera on NBC Nightly News in 2011. When not conducting on-location sessions, Brian also leads large-scale workshops in which they pass on their knowledge through graphic slideshows and hands-on training.
Since 1993, Cirque Dreams' family-friendly variety extravaganzas have called upon a cast of acrobats, strongmen, and daredevils to wring the oohs and aahs out of audiences with tremendous feats of derring-do. During each themed production, more than 100 performers garbed in dazzling outfits twirl high in the air, contort their bodies into impossible shapes, and solve long division problems to earn uproarious applause from the crowd. At Dream Studios in Pompano Beach, Florida, hundreds of contracted artists from around the world develop their skills and prep for Cirque Dreams performances under the direction of Neil Goldberg and his team of choreographers, contortionists, and designers.
When visitors board one of Wild West Rafting's rafts, they're actually stepping into some historic, soggy shoes. The inflated vessels traverse the Yellowstone River, which was explored by members of the Lewis and Clarke expedition in 1806. These famed adventurers saw many of the things rafters still see: elk, bison, and other wildlife set against the rolling terrain of nearby mountains. Indeed, Wild West Rafting's trips pass several of the majestic sights that define the American West. But the river offers more than just scenery. Near Gardiner, Montana, the flow speeds up as the river descends into Paradise Valley and narrow canyons. Rafters on these sections face an on-water rollercoaster, flying through class III and IV rapids with names such as "Yankee's Revenge," "Box Car," and "Audience Members in the First Three Rows Will Get Wet."
While they're an adventure for most people, these trips define a typical workday for Wild West Rafting's guides, each of whom holds certifications in First Aid, CPR, and Swift Water Rescue. The staff includes experts such as Ryan Winter—who, before coming to the Yellowstone River, honed his paddling skills on the South African whitewaters of the Umkomasi, the Umzimkulu, and the Zambezi. The guides can take groups on rafting trips ranging from a couple of hours to multiple days. During longer excursions, they can combine rafting with horseback rides through Yellowstone National Park.
With its identity as a volunteer-driven, nonprofit science center, its clear that ExplorationWorks' programs are motivated by one purpose: to help visitors of all ages and backgrounds gain a richer, deeper understanding of the sciences and technology. The colorful facility achieves this through eclectic programs and events, as well as a range of hands-on permanent and temporary exhibits. ExplorationWorks also allows visitors to play with sound waves and magnetic fields, learn about the seasonal life cycle of plants in an exploration garden, and experiment with principles of biology and physics firsthand in the Science Cafe.
As an offshoot of Sierra Trading Post, Derailed.com holds fast to the same business model as its parent company: bargaining with top brands to procure overstocks at heavily discounted prices. But like a youngest sibling taking up juggling cats, it strives to differentiate itself from its older counterparts. It stands out with a youthful vibe thanks to skate, surf, and SUP apparel and the staff's laid-back attitude. They'll happily answer questions and make recommendations on their throngs of camping gear, running shoes, collegiate attire, and bicycle accessories from brands including Hurely, Billabong, and Teva. Though their merchandise boasts an average discount of 48% off the retail value, shoppers can save even more—customers receive a $10 coupon when they sign up for emails, and clients of the Give & Go Referral program get a $20 egiftcard when the friend they referred uses their own $10 email coupon.

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

I'm an "experienced" watcher, but not a great judge... but Makayla had 9.900 start value on beam, and I think that was due to a missed connection (at least as the judges saw it)... I'd have to watch it again to possibly have an idea what other deductions they might have taken.
Sorry to say, I tend to not watch the other team any where near as closely as OSU, to be able to form an opinion about their scores, but it did seem some of the floor scores were a little high.
I know there are many things I miss seeing watching live, that could be deductions, some because I don't know they are deductions or because my eyes aren't trained well enough. Some deductions are a fixed value, others are within a range. Just in my viewing ability, it many times happens that I don't agree with the low (or high) judge's score, but the average seems about right (maybe within 0.025).
Go Beavs!!,
